A TRIBUTE
What an honor. Although the Phat Tuesdays doocu-series was on a competing streaming platform, Amazon Prime, Netflix crossed the aisle like Democrats and Republicans and made Phat Tuesdays part of their 2022 NETFLIX IS A JOKE FESTIVAL and held it at THE COMEDY STORE where PHAT TUESDAYS was born. That was not only special, it was HUGE.
"Hosting is what I LOVE to do. You're most important part of the show. You not only start the show and set the tone, you are the conductor. It's never about you when you're on that stage when you have comedy orchestra of stage killers waiting in the green room. "

My nephew did his thing. It was great to see him work a crowd that wasn't familiar with him. He understood the assignment and did five minutes of FUNK. He hit them in the mouth for 5 minutes and left them knowing who he is.

MATT gave the crowd just what they wanted. Some honesty, some diversity and some funny ass bits.
His first PHAT TUESDAYS show was a good one. He displayed a simple brad of humor that was straight to to the point. It's easy doing 5 min but he worked it and delivered a set that was fun and entertaining.

This PHAT TUESDAYS show was on the EXACT same night that DAVE CHAPPELLE got attacked on stage at the HOLLYWOOD BOWL. We had heard about it and and was taking no shorts. The Will Smith slap had already happened, so I wasn't taking any chances. I went back on stage with this bat I found backstage.
