OnlyStans ⭐️ Chet Hanks confronted Eric Andre at ComplexCon over his 2023 comments calling Chet “emotionally disturbed” following his dangerous behavior on “The Eric Andre Show”: “How did Colin Hanks come out so good and Chet Hanks come out so bad.”

Eric Andre is the chillest mfer on the planet. If this is who you’re trying to pick a fight with you probably are disturbed.

I wouldnt call him the chillest. Have you seen his work? Hes pretty wild.

He’s definitely crazy in his work but that’s his character. Irl and in interviews and podcasts he’s very relaxed and well spoken. He’s a very smart guy whose schtick happens to be absurdist comedy.

I mean, I did see him strip down and tuck a mangina outside of a comedy club like 10 years back. Was not on stage or anything. Just being bizarre.

I don’t think so. Eric Andre is notoriously messy, and picks these kinds of fights all the time. He got security checked in Australia, and when his “don’t you know who I am” failed he accused the whole country of being racist to him.

I don't like Chet Hanks, but go watch the appearance he's referring to. Andre didn't like having his bit turned around on himself. He can dish it out, but can't take it. Left me with a dim impression of both of them.
