Funniest Theo Von Impressions by Comedians: Santino, Carvey, and More

Theo Von’s storytelling style is one of a kind, but that hasn’t stopped other comedians from giving their best shot at imitating him. Some of the funniest impressions come from Andrew Santino, Dana Carvey, and a few other comedians who totally nail Theo’s signature blend of absurdity and Southern charm.

Andrew Santino delivers a spot-on impression, riffing about a made-up brother-in-law who eats scrap metal for dinner. He nails the wild, casual delivery that makes Theo’s stories so unforgettable. You can almost hear the "dude, this is crazy" energy as Santino weaves his bizarre tale.

Then there’s Dana Carvey, who hilariously blends Theo’s style with a Mitch Hedberg vibe. His impression features a woman who swallows a basketball, and when doctors finally figure it out, they announce, "She’s not having a baby—she’s throwing up a basketball." It’s weird, hilarious, and oddly believable—all trademarks of a great Theo Von story.

Finally, some comedians take it even further with impressions that feature raccoon principals, dads living in water towers, and muskrat-versus-squirrel fights that charge $5 admission. One even claims a vet had to remove a basketball stuck in his ribs.

These impressions capture the chaos and charm that make Theo Von’s storytelling so iconic.
