“Backyard Bar Wars” is not your average build show. Based on the rising trend of DIY at-home bars, “Backyard Bar Wars” is a send-up of the classic home reno show combined with hilarious moments of comedian and host, Chris Distefano, roasting the builders in a way that only he can. The one thing that’s not a joke are the bars themselves – viewers can expect jaw-dropping reveals that will leave everyone watching thirsty for a second round.

Premieres following “Impractical Jokers” on Thursday, July 8th at 10:30pm on truTV. Comedian Chris Distefano is the host of “Backyard Bar Wars,” a send-up of the classic home reno show combined with hilarious moments.

Distefano’s first hour standup special “Chris Distefano: Size 38 Waist” premiered on Comedy Central on January 18th, 2019. His half hour standup special premiered on the network in 2014. Distefano’s weekly interstitial Comedy Central series “Stupid Questions with Chris Distefano” was created to intertwine Comedy Central’s stand-up world with its deep archive of classics; and featured Distefano and a guest out late, catching up, and doing their best to answer stupid questions.

Currently, Distefano is co-hosting the “HEY BABE!” podcast with “Impractical Joker” star Sal Vulcano on YouTube. Additionally, he has his own podcast “CHRISSY CHAOS” on Patreon and YouTube.
