Ken Marino and Santino become friends! | Whiskey Ginger

Welcome to Whiskey Ginger a Wave series presented by Fanduel.

Andrew Santino sits down with actor, comedian, writer, and director Ken Marino for a hilarious conversation about decades in comedy, improvisation, Hollywood, friendship, and somehow still finding new ways to make each other laugh. From *The State* and *Wet Hot American Summer* to writing, directing, and acting across film and television, Ken has spent years building one of comedy's most beloved careers.

The two dive into sketch comedy, making cult classics, life behind the camera, ridiculous auditions, and why the funniest ideas usually start as the dumbest ones. It's the kind of conversation only two comedy lifers can have equal parts absurd, insightful, and completely off the rails.

Be sure to check out Ken's latest film, *Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass*, which he co-wrote with David Wain and also stars in. And don't miss **Middle Aged Dad Jam Band**, Ken's touring band with David Wain and Craig Wedren, celebrating 25 years of *Wet Hot American Summer* with comedy and classic rock.
