For over thirty years, Matt Siegel has been making Massachusetts residents laugh their way into their mornings. Matty In The Morning reaches people in a way our current election and media have not. He bridges the divide, even if many NPR listeners may hide the fact they listen in when things are going badly in their days and need a reprieve.

I ask Matty about reality TV starts as authorities, entertainment as news, about his craft, and how we might export his humor across the country to bridge the coasts with the middle, post election.
