Arvin Impuesto Jimenez (March 24, 1974 – February 7, 2014), known mononymously as Tado, was a Filipino comedian, actor, radio personality, businessman, published author and activist. His nickname "Tado" comes from a Tagalog expletive (tarantado) that he frequently blurts out.[1][2] Tado was primarily known for the offbeat television program Strangebrew and the U92 radio program The BrewRATs!.
