Gianmarco Soresi

Hosted by Gianmarco Soresi

A comedian's personal YouTube channel, mixing viral stand-up clips, crowd work, and full-length episodes of his interview podcast, The Downside.

The brief

This is the digital portfolio of a working stand-up comedian, where polished material lives alongside the process. The channel features a mix of short, algorithm-friendly stand-up and crowd-work clips, satirical news segments from his "Tomorrow Morning Show," and full-length episodes of his primary podcast, "The Downside." On "The Downside," Soresi and co-host Russell Daniels interview other entertainers about the frustrations and complaints of their careers, celebrating negativity with a cynical but humorous lens.

Unlike a channel for a single show, this is a comedian's multimedia hub that blends multiple formats. The content fluidly moves between highly-produced stand-up specials, raw crowd-work clips, and casual, two-host podcast interviews, offering a comprehensive look at the host's comedic range.
