Matt Alspaugh is a podcaster, writer, director, and performer based out of Austin.
Originally from Connecticut, Matt moved to New York because he wanted to go on a life adventure. During his 10 years there, Matt spent thousands of dollars and hours learning and watching some of the great (and not as great) work at UCB, The Magnet, and The PIT. He also learned and worked with the amazing children’s theater company The Story Pirates. And to make ends meet, Matt spent his days counting books at The Drama Book Shop and his nights slinging drinks at Gotham Comedy Club. Basically, Matt got to watch (and do) a lot of comedic theater during his time in New York.
Always a firm believer of characters the universally language of comedy, Matt decided to start a unique SNL podcast that focuses exclusively on characters from the show. The podcast is called SATURDAY NIGHT CHARACTERS WITH MATT ALSPAUGH. Each episode, Matt has a guest he met somewhere along his comedy journey between New York, LA, and Austin. The cool twist? The guest choices the SNL character the episode will revolve around.
Join Matt and his amazingly brilliant and talented guests as they use the SNL character as a doorway to all things comedy!
