Ep75: Finding More Soulful Culture with Matt Ruby

Today I talk to Matt Ruby, comedian, writer, and filmmaker from New York City! His comedy has been filmed by Comedy Central, MTV, NBC/Seeso, and FOX. He hosts the podcast ⁠Kind of a Lot with Matt Ruby⁠ and writes the weekly "Rubesletter." We delve into psychedelics, comedy, American culture, and get very Jew-y! We discuss growing up Jewish, how it connects with comedy and reconnecting with Judaism as adults in new ways. 

Watch his comedy special called Substance documenting his performances of 4 sets on 4 nights; 1 high, 1 drunk, 1 sober, and 1 on shrooms: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Ak5CQSVVvI⁠
