Wonder Woman in Hollywood with Matt Marr
Matt will talk to anyone. He's the guy in the grocery store that compliments your eye makeup and then two minutes later you’re asking him for dating advice. Podcasting for over nine years, Matt is the co-host of Reality Gays, which was ranked by Screenrant as the number one reality podcast everyone should be listening to for 2020. At the same time, he is a successful commercial actor, improv actor (Modern Family, Saving Mr. Banks), has produced content for TBS, and has performed stand up all over the West Coast. He is a contributing host on Portland Afternoon Live (KATU ABC). Find all things Matt on social media, @theMattMarr. Matt and I talk about how Wonder Woman helps him summon his power, the shows that got him through his grief, and our time with Justin Timberlake.
