Welcome to Arts Forward MKE, a new podcast out of the Imagine MKE podcast shop. Each week on this show, we’ll sit down with an artist or arts administrator in Milwaukee and dive deep into their story – asking them about their Milwaukee origin, their early memories that sparked a love of the arts, their present work, and their vision for the future of the city.
On today’s episode, we speak with Matt Kemple – producer, entrepreneur, comedian – who has been a key force in building Milwaukee’s active comedy scene in the last 15 or so years. You may know him from his work as the founder and producer of the Milwaukee Comedy Festival, co-founder of the Milwaukee Fringe Festival, founder and manager of The Underground Collaborative, and co-producer of the new comedy club The Laughing Tap.
The conversation centers on Matt's career in comedy, celebrating all that The Underground Collaborative accomplished in its eight years, coping with the pandemic, Matt's insanely large rubber chicken collection, and more.
Music: "Caroline's," by Amanda Huff
