Hit comedy podcast Bad Friends announce Dublin live show

Bad Friends, a podcast hosted by comedians Andrew Santino and Bobby Lee, is set to take the stage at Dublin’s 3Arena on July 19.

The podcast began in February 2020, and has been producing an episode every week since then.

Bad Friends is among the top comedy podcasts in the world, and has featured a variety of high profile guests, including Machine Gun Kelly, Jack Black, Bill Burr and more.

Santino has starred in FX’s sitcom Dave and Showtime’s I’m Dying Up Here, a comedy-drama series executive produced by Jim Carey. Alongside Bad Friends, he hosts the podcast Whiskey Ginger where the comedian interviews friends from the entertainment industry.

He has performed two of his own stand-up specials, Home Field Advantage in 2018 and Cheeseburger in 2023.

Lee was a regular cast member on the sketch comedy series MADtv, which ran from 2001 to 2009. He hosts the hit podcast Tigerbelly with ex-partner Khalyla Khun, which the pair started in 2015. Lee has appeared in television series such as Magnum PI, NCIS: Los Angeles, and many others.

Bad Friends began touring in 2023 in the US and Canada. Last year, they toured across Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. In 2024, Hulu acquired rights to produce an animated series based on the show.

Tickets for the 3Arena show go on sale Friday, February 14 at 10.00am.
