Matt’s been working the road as a stand-up for more than a decade. He’s got a handful of very funny specials and albums to his name. He has also appeared on shows like Superstore, Take My Wife and Agent Carter.
One of his biggest breaks came in 2008. He got the call to be on David Letterman’s Late Show. He’ll tell us about the surreal experience of meeting Letterman, and performing on the same stage as legends.
This story has it all: a cameo from Tracy Morgan, a joke about a man named Eggly Bagelface, a special tune by The Pixies, an elevator conversation with Paul Shaffer and it gets even crazier!
You can stream Matt’s latest comedy special Finally Live in Portland on Amazon Prime now. He’s also on tour this fall with dates all over the country. Check out his website for more information, and follow the latest from him on twitter @Braunger.
