Matt Abedi

Updated: Oct 8

We chatted with NYC improviser, performer, and co-founder of VoteDown, Matt Abedi.

In this engaging conversation, Jason and Matt discuss the intricate relationship between politics and comedy. Matt shares his journey from a politically-inclined youth to a comedy lover, drawing inspiration from icons like Chris Rock, Robin Williams, and Jim Carrey. His debate background and experience working on the Obama campaign reveal how humor can be a powerful tool in political settings. The conversation delves into the problematic nature of current political structures and how Matt's initiative, Vote Down, aims to empower voters and hold politicians accountable. It's a great chat!
