Ep 80 - Jackie Kashian Has Advice From the Road, and...

This Might Help with Matt Braunger ·

2021/12/09

Longtime traveling comedian lady Jackie Kashian is on the show this week and I couldn’t be happier. No one is nice, funnier, or more grateful for everything she has than Jackie. She’s one of those comics that every comic likes, and her mile-a-minute delivery is near and dear to my heart (as I also talk very fast onstage). Jackie’s seen it all, and it was so fun to chop it up with her and talk about old times versus the new. We’re both on the road, both staying safe, both married, both terrified. We

Ep 79 - Christian Duguay Helps and Brings the Valley...

This Might Help with Matt Braunger ·

2021/12/02

I have a massive amount of respect for anybody who makes a scripted podcast. The planning, the creative effort, and the execution can be brutal. There are a lot of them that I like, but Christian Duguay’s brilliant Valley Heat is one that I love. I’m biased, as I’m a voice on it, but I was a fan way before that happened. Valley Heat is one of those podcasts that, once you listen to an episode, you’re hooked. The story of Doug, who broadcasts his podcast from his garage in Burbank and talks only

Ep 78 - Jared Goldstein Doesn't Want to Help but Will!

This Might Help with Matt Braunger ·

2021/11/25

I first became aware of young comic Jared Goldstein when (back in the dark ages of the lockdown) he and I were both on the same bill of a zoom comedy show. Not sure if you know, but they really sucked ass. However, he had a really good set, and I was like, “Who’s this guy?” Fast forward a year, and he’s just been named one of Vulture’s “21 Comics You Should and Will Know.” I knew he was funny, but what I didn’t know is that he’s a former child actor. We talked rejection, being bitter or not, online

Ep 77 - Your Dad Chad Daniels is Here to Help!

This Might Help with Matt Braunger ·

2021/11/18

Chad Daniels aka Dad Chaniels has raised three kids and he’s around my age. Seriously. I’m just getting started, and he’s retired lol. Chad had ‘em young, and moved to a place he could afford to raise them (aka NOT NYC or LA). Long story short, it worked out. Chad has a massive, rapid fan base who eat up anything he puts out. I’ve rarely had a better reaction than when I announced he was coming on the show. An added plus is that he’s an old friend and a peach of a man. We two dads had a blast on

Ep 76 - Will Miles of Southside Comes to the Helpside!

This Might Help with Matt Braunger ·

2021/11/11

Will Miles is a comedian, friend, and drinking buddy of mine. We also both have daughters the exact same age, so we often have that “Can you believe this shit?” moment together. Recently we took our kids trick or treating for the first time, and before that we spent a weekend in the desert with our families. You might think we have nothing left to talk about, but you’d be wrong. Will is a comedian married to another comedian (the also hilarious Giulia Rozzi) and writes/act on the insanely funny TV

Ep 75 - Hannah Einbinder is Here to Cheer (You On)!

This Might Help with Matt Braunger ·

2021/11/04

Former cheerleader (yep, it’s true) Hannah Einbiner blew the f%*k up in the biz. My pal Dana Gould told me she was a funny stand-up, and I said, “Ok cool, I’ll check her out.” No sooner did we have that exchange than she landed a huge role on the HBO show “Hacks.” She plays Ava, the reluctant writer/protégé to Jean Smart’s Joan Rivers-like Deborah Vance. It’s heavy lifting for any actor, but Hannah pulls it off. It’s been cool watching someone so nice and funny go so far so soon, and it was fun to

2021/10/28

Colin Mochrie is a National Tresure, and I’m not using hyperbole. If you don’t believe me, look at my Instagram page from when I announced he’d be on the show. Like always, I posted a picture of my upcoming guest… and everyone reacted with HOLY CRAP I THOUGHT YOU WERE SAYING HE WAS DEAD WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS?? Do what? Post a picture? It made me realize that when we really, really love someone and see a picture of them out of nowhere, we think the worst. Says a lot about the times we live in! Anway,

This Might Help with Matt Braunger ·

2021/10/21

Josh Johnson is a great joke writer, comedian, and person based out of New York City. Also, solid work ethic. Writing on The Daily Show all day and putting in sets at night sounds, and maybe it’s because I’m a dad, exhausting. You wouldn’t know it to meet him, though. He’s funny, thoughtful, and full of energy. Wait, hold on, he’s just young! Lol. We got into it on this one, and got to know each other better along the way. Great times.

Ep 72 - Dave Schilling Has Taste and is Willing to Help!

This Might Help with Matt Braunger ·

2021/10/14

Dave Schilling is a writer, a comic, a journalist, and will argue with you about whether he is actually the last two things. He writes for the New Yorker, and writes an amazing fashion column for the LA Times. He’s also a James Bond expert and, between the two of us, knows who the NEXT ONE SHOULD BE! This ep was taped from a hotel room in Fort Worth, Texas and it made my day. THE CALLS: 1) A man asks, “How do you deal with a know-it-all?” 2) A second time caller (who formerly called in to ask if HE

EP- 71 - James Adomian Helps out with So Many Voices!...

This Might Help with Matt Braunger ·

2021/10/07

James Adomian is a man of many, many voices. A comedian by trade, he’s known for his incredible impressions of people like Bernie Sanders, Vincent Price, Jesse Ventura, and Mike “My Pillow” Lindell. When they sent over the list of comedians available to guest on my Live from Moontower TMH, his name jumped off the page. It was the very first show of the entire festival (no pressure), but I think we killed it (not to brag). THE CALLS: 1) A male caller asks Bernie Sanders, “What do you do in a small

This Might Help with Matt Braunger ·

2021/09/30

My friend Adam Cayton-Holland is a king of Denver comedy, as both the founder of the High Plains Festival and a member of the three-man comedy troupe the Grawlix. The Grawlix created, sold, wrote, and starred in the often slept-on but brilliant teacher comedy Those Who Can’t. Adam worked in Los Angeles, but never left Denver, and he lives there today with his wife and two kids. He was a no-brainer as a guest when the High Plains Festival asked me to do my podcast while I was there, and he did not

Ep 69 - Rosebud Baker Uses Her Whiskey Fists to Help!

This Might Help with Matt Braunger ·

2021/09/23

Rosebud Baker has a new special out called “Whiskey Fists,” which is odd because she’s been sober for years, and I’ve never seen her hit anyone. Not that it matters. What does matter is that she’s one of the best joke writers out there, has an undeniable stage presence, and has been through a lot in her life. She was a perfect TMH guest, as you’ll soon learn. We had so much fun, got to be better friends, and shared some brutal childhood experiences. Hooray! THE CALLS: 1) A guy asks, what’s the

2021/09/20

Comedian Chris Garcia grew up in Los Angeles, started out doing comedy in the Bay Area, and now lives here again. In fact, he and his wife live with their baby daughter Sunny in my old apartment! When he moved to the neighborhood he texted me the address and said, “Is this a nice area?” I texted back, “That’s my house!” We were good friends before but now we’re super tight, especially as we both have baby ladies to raise while telling dick jokes onstage. As we recorded this, we were both two days

Ep 67 - Dave Anthony Brings a Dollop of Help!

This Might Help with Matt Braunger ·

2021/09/09

Dave Anthony’s podcast The Dollop, with Gareth Reynolds, is an internationally popular podcast that I find hilarious. As I say during this episode, the two-part one they did about Ronald Reagan, is maybe the hardest I’ve ever laughed at a podcast. Dave started out as a stand-up and moved into writing, becoming an actor along the way (He was Marc’s a-hole best friend in the television series “Maron”). It was fun to talk to this hilarious dad, and he was great at the advice game. THE CALLS: 1) A guy

Ep 66 - Sam Tallent is Running the Light to Help!

This Might Help with Matt Braunger ·

2021/09/02

I’ve been a big fan of Sam Tallent for many years, so it’s great to finally have him on the show. A hilarious comic and writer, Sam is hard to miss from his large size and many, many tattoos. A force onstage, he’s also a kind and humble guy with a lot of perspective. So, like so many of my guests, he’s terrible for this show. Jokes! THE CALLS: 1) Max Beasley, a comic we know, called in about his dad getting remarried. See, his mom doesn’t know about it. Should he tell her? 2) A lady asks if she

2021/08/26

Shane Torres started doing comedy in Portland, Oregon after moving there from Fort Worth, Texas. He’s incredibly funny, and also one of the kindest and realest people I’ve ever known. That makes him terrible to be on the pod, but oh well (JOKE!). Shane blew up on the national scene when his joke about Guy Fieri went viral, and for good reason. It’s a monster. Shane used to open for me on the road, and I miss having him around. It was great to have him on the show, not only to help THE MIGHTYS, but

2021/08/12

Caleb is a comedian/internet sensation/lifestyle expert, IMO. I first learned of him when a friend showed me his videos on twitter, all of which are gut-bustingly funny and very different than anyone else’s. Right before we started recording, Caleb said he heard I was in Provincetown. I said “Yeah, I was,” and he said, “It’s cool that you like gay people, but I don’t” (Caleb is gay). We got into doing comedy today, drinking or not drinking, annoying people with kids (not me), and way more. ALSO, the

2021/08/05

James was nice enough to open for me in Brea a couple weeks ago, and we got to know each other better on the drive there and back from LA. He comes from a staunch religious background, is married with a child on the way, and is hilarious. Lately he’s become known for his spot-on impressions, especially of the guy who most recently lost the presidential election. When James opened for me he did that impression and went off on a rant about Star Trek that killed so hard I went, “Hoo boy, now I REALLY

Ep 61 - Rick Overton is Here to Teach and Help!

This Might Help with Matt Braunger ·

2021/07/29

Rick Overton is a comic I’ve looked up to for a long time. He’s hilarious, he has an amazing perspective born of a long and storied career, and he’s optimistic. The last part of that fascinates me, because it’s something I’ve been grappling with a lot lately. Everything around us, news-wise, seems to veer towards being a shitshow, and it’s hard to hold on to hope. Before I had Rick on, I was reminded of a bit he had about laughing in the face of death. Doing that, he asserted, robs death and
