Armchair Expert episode 934
Matt Friend (impressionist)
Matt Friend (Grace Period, The Simpsons, Family Guy) is a stand-up comedian, impressionist, and actor. Matt joins the Armchair Expert to discuss exploring whether he’s enough beyond his voice in a new stand-up hour, his sister’s characterization of him as a glorified parrot, and roasting Trump to his face at the White House Correspondents Dinner. Matt and Dax discuss whether there might be a neurodivergence component to his impression skills, doing celebrities to themselves on the Golden Globes red carpet, and humoring the team by welcoming a few yet-to-be friends of the pod. Matt explains where he believes his compulsion towards mimicry comes from, being one of the first people in the world to be completely cured of food allergies, and the last time he cried.
