Wicked Day with Constantine Rousouli | The Downside with Gianmarco Soresi

Broadway’s Constantine Rousouli joins us to share the downsides of singing "Dancing Through Life" with a thick Jersey accent for Rihanna for the chance to go backstage at Wicked, picking Hairspray over college, the flying monkey ensemble member who fell from a rope and was never heard from again, how to get a parasite out of you using only spaghetti, and why str*ight girls must be stopped. Russell also shares the story about how he got stuck in an elevator for forty minutes where only a baby could hear his screams.

More about Gianmarco:
Gianmarco Soresi is a stand-up comedian, actor, and a little too much for some people. He’s told jokes on The Late Late Show with James Corden, Comedy Central, Netflix’s Bonding, Don’t Tell, The Real Housewives of New York for some reason, and he was a JFL New Face in 2022. He’s acted in Billy Crystal’s Here Today, Hustlers, The Last OG, and in his theater days shared the stage with some people who’ve gone on to become huge real estate agents. You can see him post the kind of crowdwork clips that are arguably destroying the artform of stand-up comedy everywhere @gianmarcosoresi and he obviously has a podcast called The Downside with Gianmarco Soresi.🎤

Omg I'm having a mild heart attack listening to Russell's elevator story😅

[@irmakaneli]

Constantine's Taylor Swift take at the end, loved it 😂

[@Annej-isnt-gomez]

Maia Shulman is the person who fell and sued Wicked. She’s currently an Admissions Director at a school

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Constantine is a Broadway Queen? I’m sat.

[@AleG420]

I missed Russell. His storytelling always cracks me tf up !! 😂😂

[@lizcoddington4421]

I like that the calendar in the back is wrong for when this was posted and also wrong for when this was recorded 😂 Makes my adhd heart happy lol

[@thatonelocoguy]

Wait...gay, white guy that constantly sings and brakes his back and it's L5S1?!?! Constantine is my better looking and more talented twin!!! Yaaaaassss queen!

[@blue-mc2yn]

Is everything ok Gianmarco that’s a small couch? 😂❤

[@irmakaneli]

I'm usually not squeamish but the thought of a bowl of pasta and butter-parasite peeking/crawling out- oof.

[@IDGAF_AboutYourLuckyCharms_238]

I agree with the big name actor thing like Ryan Reynolds I don’t want Mint Mobile so stop showing on my phones CZcams ads like a Steve Jobs impersonator or the Rock trying to get you to invest using the Acorns app he’s invested in making money from like geez people lol. I also agree on the Taylor Swift opinion I don’t even think she’s a good song writer but I also don’t like her voice so I don’t listen to much of her music. Beyoncé is way better than Taylor Swift if your comparing the two.

[@AnotherBrownAjah]

The only reason to watch instead of listen is to see the evolution of Gianmarco's sitting position on this tiny couch

[@celo7carvalho]

abput the wicked accident:

[@hellocat9512]

Russel is such a good story teller! I feel bad but I that elevator story was hilarious.

[@planningpersonlaidbackdeep1273]

Connie is fun. Hanging out with him was awesome. A fan night shoiud be a prize.

[@KBerry-ug5zx]

If the theater kids at my college looked like him, I'd have tried out for more shit.

[@rebobness]

[@hollywalsh1220]

My favourite episode so far. I was crying at the butter pasta 🍝
