About
Matt Andrew
Matt was a special agent and diplomat around the world for 30 years. He made arrests, protected dignitaries, and had crazy adventures. He smuggled for Navy SEALs, was national Israeli beach rugby champion, taught a dog to ride a motorcycle, and drove across Namibia with him. Then Matt became a comedian. He’s the only person to do standup in the headquarters of the U.S. Department of State, the CIA, and a weed bar in Detroit. He runs a wild and welcoming open mic show every Thursday in Las Vegas.

“Special thanks to Matt Andrew! One of the best features we’ve had… highly recommend him for anyone booking shows in Vegas! And I agree… Matt CAN be fun.”
– Josh Lidauer @Notjoshlidawer
“Matt’s got a razor sharp wit that rewards audiences with genuine guttural laughter. Akin to thought-joke provoking comedians like Eugene Mirman, Patton Oswalt, and Kurt Braunohler, their comedy hits like a well placed arrow and Matt has proven that in the world of over-the-top, spectacle-inducing comedy; what ultimately matters is ‘what is funny’?”

The Not-So Secret Agent Comic: Matt Andrew
I recently had the pleasure of witnessing Matt Andrew’s performance at the Shock-Collar Comedy Show. I have been fortunate to see him on multiple occasions. Right from the moment he took the stage, his studious aura was on full display. With his charismatic personality and witty jokes, he was able to leave a lasting impression on the crowd.
