Summary
Matt Richardson joins The Wasting Time Podcast and it's immediately clear this is going to be a good one. The UK comedian, presenter and all-round emo/pop punk obsessive sits down to talk career, craft and chaos. He discusses his stand-up shows as well as his presenting gigs, interviewing movie stars and the likes of blink-182 for Virgin Radio. Matt also looks ahead to Slam Dunk Festival this year and why the lineup has him excited. He gets into his TikTok blowing up, what it's like when the algorithm decides it's your moment, and why the emo kid never really left. Chris and Nick open the episode discussing the newly announced Four Chord Music Festival lineup, as well as new music from Mayday Parade, The Menzingers and podcast favourites, Social Distortion.
