Matt Mathews on Alabama, Trailer Parks & Fighting Back | The Wayback with Ryan Sickler #127

Comedian Matt Mathews joins me in The Wayback and we head to 1990s/early 2000s Bessemer, Alabama! Matt takes us through the neighborhoods that raised him - from the projects and trailer parks he grew up in to the roller rink, the local car dealership where his dad works, and the first house he ever called home. We talk about Matt’s wild childhood, family chaos, his dad’s love for drinking and karaoke, his days in barrel racing, and the fights he got into at school for being gay and why he was never afraid to stand up for himself. This episode is full of hilarious stories, raw childhood memories, Southern family chaos, growing up in Alabama, and the moments that helped shape Matt into who he is today.
