Before super bowl 46 Frank Caliendo is on the Mike and Mike show on ESPN radio. He does Madden, Adam Sandler, Bill Walton, Chris Rock, Al Pacino, and more.
IT was one of the things he said took his impressions to the next level. Without the mannerisms he realized an impression is empty and boring, even if it's good.
My most favorite impressionist, frank is brilliant he not only imitate few words like other people do but he immerse on that character throughout whole interview For this video i love his impresses Al Pacino 🤣🤣
I always thought of Madden as that big old bear. I loved him but Frank made him even more of a big old bear for me. Thanks for all the good feelings you have brought to us Frank! And Madden? They broke the mold when they made him.
Everyone knows him for the Madden impression but he has ones that make you cry laughing like his Jim Rome. His Chris Berman and John Gruden are spot on too but this must've been before he had those ready to go.
Frank Caliendo is the greatest Impersonator that ever lived. Rich Little, Frank Gorshin and all the rest. No one else can capture the unique personality of every character he portrays like the Italian "Mighty Mite." Little could do a great Nixon and a fabulous George Burns. Caliendo can do everybody!! From Sports Stars to Pop Stars. His Jon Gruden, Al Pacino, Charles Barkley and John Madden, are just the tip of a Giant Glacier. All of it rendered with a Comedic touch Unrivaled in the history of his craft. If you want the next President, how about George W. Trump? His impersonations of both men are beyond a Carbon Copy. Watch his unreal video on College GameDay. You'll hear his, "They say don't mess with Texas. But, today Baylors going to." More like Ex President Bush than Ex President Bush!! Frank Caliendo is too big . Even for Las Vegas. Even if he is only Five Feet, Five Inches tall.
he meant Don Adams did Tennessee Tuxedo, no Don Knotts. He's pretty remarkable. It's one thing to do the voices, but his comedic talent really puts it over the top.
In the history of Western Civilization??? Oh YES hhaha Im english and only know Bill Walton through Franks impression, but the way that Caliendo is also a comedian and makes it so funny, favourite impression is his Bill Walton
NFL Films should bring back ‘This is Your Life’ Everyone who likes football would be glued to the TV. Imagine Bill Parcells sitting down and in walks LT, Bavaro, Simms etc one at a time. All you need is a studio, and some plane tickets. Make a whole season and then change the studio set/host for Season 2+ to keep the surprise factor alive. Your welcome. I’ll accept 4% of the royalties, Mr. Netflix.
His Jim Rome litteraly has me crying man...
Count ... Chocula?
I love it that he doesn't just do the voices, he also does their mannerisms.
He actually becomes these people!
As fun to watch as it is to listen.
That Pachino is pure gold.
Yes, he is Brilliant
IT was one of the things he said took his impressions to the next level. Without the mannerisms he realized an impression is empty and boring, even if it's good.
Not a lot of comedians make me laugh. Frank Caliendo brings me to tears with laughter!
"...but in your heart you're a true giant."
I'm not crying. You're crying. Damn it.
Frank Caliendo is a great comedic talent. His impressions are accurate to a t.
My most favorite impressionist, frank is brilliant he not only imitate few words like other people do but he immerse on that character throughout whole interview
For this video i love his impresses Al Pacino 🤣🤣
The best sports comedian and the golden age of ESPN.
Truly da best ever! Man I miss the old mike and mike days during football season
Golic yes. Greenberg no.
His Charles Barkley is scary good
it really ain't that turrble
Seriously might be the best ever at impersonations. Madden is my favorite. Makes me cry laughing every time. Barkley and Gruden spot on too
His George Bush is flawless
Frank's mocking of Rome was desperately needed when it came along in 2003 or whenever it was.
God his Jim Rome is spot on!
EC0205 lol i used to HATE Jim Rome when he was on ESPN..but his radio show is actually pertty good.
Mike and Mike's laughs are so contagious.
+Shinigami919 Rome has the best show in radio
PHE NOMINAL
Correction...A RU GULA!
absolutely off the charts. he is so quick at changing it up. no one can really touch him,,, the very best
this is the most I have ever heard him talk in his own voice.
His impression of mike and mike is spot on
I saw frank once in Milwaukee. Loved it. He just keeps getting better as the years roll on.
His Pacino at the end is fabulous lol.
Mike times 2 was the best I miss you guys together
This guy is brilliant!!
Wow, the Al Pacino part is scary! So want to hear Frank Caliendo do the famous "Baird man" speech, or better, the Tango scene!
Steve that would be Awsome to hear...
HOOWAAHH
He’s amazing the BEST Morgan freeman EVER!!!!!
Arugula!
2019 still funny.
His Belilchek is lmao. "We're on to Cincinati."
I always thought of Madden as that big old bear. I loved him but Frank made him even more of a big old bear for me. Thanks for all the good feelings you have brought to us Frank! And Madden? They broke the mold when they made him.
omg that JIM ROME.. LOL... CANT BREATHE
I was crying by the end of the Al Pacino impression!
Everyone knows him for the Madden impression but he has ones that make you cry laughing like his Jim Rome. His Chris Berman and John Gruden are spot on too but this must've been before he had those ready to go.
Would love to hear his Coach Orgeron imitation.
I can't even distinguish between what his real voice is anymore. - _ -
Get help
"Is it the greatest day.... "
"In the history of Western Civilization? Oh Yessss"
Haha...man.
His Lou Holtz impression is insane.
7:54 They completely glossed over his perfect Golic
Agreed
Al Pacino............Dead On!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I still miss Mike and Mike!!!
"... Arugula!" lmao
“How great is it to be here”
this guy drunk would be as awesome as christmas in july xD
This guy is a cure for depression. I'm actually suspicious that he can cure cancer, too. Boy, what a sincere laugh was that.
Pretty darn good!
I'm crying. The EAR for some one, - that a lot of actors have - is really, REALLY obviously exceptional with him.
I like when he does the same impressions over and over and over and over and over again. It never gets old. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.
6:20 Frank makes Jim Rome relevant and interesting
LOVE his adam sandler @ 9:14
Oh my gosh, his Stephen A. Smith is really good.
Imitation is the greatest form of compliment.
Guy is awesome!
His Jim Rome is awesome
Hammond, Indiana represent!!! Born and raised
FooCards88 I'm sorry about that
That sucks
His John Gruden impression is spot on!!
"You're gonna get Tatooined out of here" XD hahahahaha!
he's got to b the funniest person alive today.
Jamie Morris no. No he's not
Easily rivaled by bill burr
Jamie Morris He’s super-funny alright! The funniest impressionist out there, for sure!
He's really really funny but he's definitely not the funniest
He’s Good but funniest person alive?
Say what? Have you not ever seen Mike Epps comedy or Kat Williams?
He's so good in interviews and stuff like this, but his act has absolutely not changed in 20 years.
check out "giggles"
If it's not broken don't fix it??
Those were the good old days!
"Meet your college tuition." lol
frank caliendo is hilarious.
brilliant, so good
Miss Mike and Mike
I think his Mike and Mike was pretty good.
Mainly Golic was close. The Greenburg could use more work.
Justin Pettit say that in the Madden voice.
Justin Pettit their faces when he hit Golic spot on
And the award for "WORST FAKE LAUGHING" goes to...... Mike and Mike!
I wish he would do more Sandler and Chris Rock in his interviews
Any one else think his mike and mike impression was spot on?
Phenomenal.
This guy is master class.
8:20-8:29 best part of Madden
I cant breathe
The Walton his so fucking funny, it's dead on.
His John Gruden took it to a new echelon
His Walton sounds better than ever, in my opinion.
Amazing
"Meet your college tuition" lol
"Let's talk about this Superbowl thing......lemme tell ya what....GRANIKORSKI" LMAO
I met John Madden in a 7-11 in Danville. He was right in front of me in line.

Kevin Pollak is great at it too.
I think he's gotten a lot better since he started.
he meant Don Adams did Tennessee Tuxedo, no Don Knotts. He's pretty remarkable. It's one thing to do the voices, but his comedic talent really puts it over the top.
Jeff Travis he said Don Adams....
The madden hits so different now that he’s gone
“Self-deprecating whatever that means”
Yep!
I wish he had done Gruden...his gruden is spot on
Sure all he does is impressions,but you cant find anyone better
Dana Carvey?
Kristopher Levine
Jay Pharoah is pretty good too!!
Jonathan Kite is better
Please bring back Mike and Mike ESPN
dan the man I'll see what I can do.
Frank's amazing! XD
The Chuck was too funny. "Ridicuhlus."
Never gets old lmao
If you can't see him, but you just hear his voice, you think it is the other person.
In the history of Western Civilization??? Oh YES hhaha Im english and only know Bill Walton through Franks impression, but the way that Caliendo is also a comedian and makes it so funny, favourite impression is his Bill Walton
Look up Tennessee tuxedo. Golic as Chumly had me rolling.
Great story epic
8:05 to 8:40 is pure gold.
OH MY GOSH HIS AL PACINO IS HILARIOUS AND SPOT ON LOL!
Really wanna see him do an impression of Shannon Sharpe .That would be classic
Needs more guy in background laughing.
haha it's funny because I see mike greenberg almost everyday in person, and he knows me by name. I've also played a few rounds of golf with him
Their faces when he nailed Golic!
No pun intended
He should be on MNF
He and Rich Little are the greatest of all time!
That New York accent you try to pull off was 3/4 the way to Boston didn't sound like anyone I know but you're a funny guy cool
