Guido Grasso – Italian Mother Phone Messages

Many Italian Canadian fans of stand up comedy know Guido Grasso. That is, they have seen his stand up comedy act, but might not remember his name. Grasso was part of Australian comedian Joe Avati’s Canadian tour back in the autumn of 2012. He was the “merchandize” guy. Yup, that funny guy.

“I always wanted to do comedy. I wanted to be Louis C.K. But I soon realized I should do the Italian bits. It’s easier for me,” Grasso explains.

“Like many children of immigrants I tried to be more ‘American.’ Now I embrace my roots. I can find the absurdity in the things and in the people around me. And I go with it,” he continues.
