Comedy fix stand up with Bill santiago

Bill Santiago became a standup after narrowly escaping a career in journalism, facing the fact that as a comedian he was funny, but as a reporter he was a joke. It’s been said he was born to Puerto Rican immigrants, which is technically untrue, as Puerto Ricans are US citizens, although he’s got an uncle who was once deported to the Bronx. More often than not, people say nice things about his act. “Santiago proved political satire is alive in America,” noted a San Francisco Chronicle theater critic. Or as one New York City club owner put it, “A Hispanic who uses big words. I love it!”
