Send us a textMatt Dundas started doing stand-up in a San Francisco laundromat in 2002 and then stopped. He started up again in Seattle, but stopped. It wasn't until he was in Washington, D.C., in 2013 that it stuck. He and his family are in Portland, Maine, now and he's loving it. He's getting plenty of stage time and a lot of work and released his first album, "From Away," on Nov. 1, 2024 -- just ahead of the election. The special came out on YouTube on May 5, 2025. He's super funny and will be at the Jersey City Comedy Festival between June 10 and June 14.Follow Matt Dundas: Facebook: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mcdundas/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mcdundasWebsite: https://mattcomedy.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@dundascomedyFrom Away: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUTgNQCPBQo&t=6sSupport the show
