The store

Glizzies, Brunch Club
and the Spookeasy.

The Basement Yard is the weekly comedy podcast Joe Santagato started in 2015. Since 2020 he has hosted it with his childhood friend Frank Alvarez; the two grew up in Astoria, Queens. In October 2024 they took the show to Radio City Music Hall as The Basement Yard Experience, and in November 2025 they played Madison Square Garden.

Every design here comes from the world of the show: the hosts as cartoons, monsters and skeletons, Dog Suckin' Season hot dogs, the Brunch Club, the Spookeasy, Starla, Santagato Studios wordmarks and a keepsake from the 2024 Radio City shows.

We print each piece when you order it, on tees, long sleeves, crewnecks and hoodies, with kids' and youth sizes too.

What we stand for

Four things we
keep in the basement

01

Printed to order

Nothing sits in a warehouse. Your piece is printed when you order it, just for you.

02

Every design has a joke

Each print comes from the world of The Basement Yard, and the product page tells you exactly what's on it.

03

Sizes for every fan

Unisex cuts for adults, plus kids' and youth sizes, all with the same designs.

04

Made for long episodes

Soft enough for a long episode on the couch, and easy to wear out with your own crew.

See you in
the Yard.

Twenty designs, from Dog Suckin' Season to the Spookeasy, printed to order on tees, crewnecks and hoodies.
