Are you excited to hear about Matt Rife's middle school life!?
Hell yeah!
Yeah!!
Hell yess love that he was on the pod 🤘❤️
nope not at all
Penn’s comments on marriage, and the importance of long term committed relationships was a major mic drop moment.
It was the loyal Scorpio speaking. ❤
Stop with the zodiac sign obsession. It's corny and ridiculous already @@medusaslair
It was the decent and good man speaking. Not the zodiac sign speaking. @@medusaslair
@@salvation_raised What is your problem? Let women have something for themselves omg, why do you care so much what she believes in? What a loser
Matt gently fangirling over Penn for the first half of the interview is so cute
Who wouldn’t? 😂
It's called fanboying, because he's a man. Don't use girl as something degrading, as if being a fan is something men don't do. Fanboying for men/boys, fangirling for women/girls. Very simple.
@@medusaslairdidn't rlly sound degrading
The first half? I think he flirted with him throughout the interview! I’ve noticed that Matt has that quality where he’s not afraid to be extremely complimentary of another man. I find it refreshing.
@@medusaslairSo by that same token is it wrong to use the term “tomboy” to describe a girl?
This is THE best conversation I’ve ever heard from Matt Rife.
One of those rare times he uses his emotional intelligence at 10%.... it's better than nothing I suppose
Very touching … supremely sweet.
Astrology, paranormal things, baby reflexes, anecdotes , this ep had it all ❤
hahaha best episode description!
AND dick jokes ❤
Matt talking about growing up and being nostalgic reminds me of how weirdly stuck my generation is at 28. I’m the same age and when I was a kid 28 year olds seemed so mature and now I think we’re all pretending to be adults but we are such children inside stuck between the past because it’s comforting and the future which is scary.
Im 34 and still feel that exact feeling.. in fact it's crazy because I had this convo with my partner a few nights ago.. they looked at me like I was insane so glad to know someone else out there is feeling that also
This. Thank you for validating the feeling I've been feeling as a 28 year old recently, I feel like stuck. I also feel like the newer generations are growing up so much faster, maybe because of technology or their sense of trying to connect with our nostalgia? I'm not so sure what it is.
27 and I couldn't relate more
I can really listen to Penn talk for hours and hours
Penn is so adorable when he articulates things. I love it.
I legitimately didn’t know Penn b4 his podcast. I LOVE HIM. This is the loveliest interaction. He brought out the side of Matty , us og fans adore. My fave interview thus far.
And then his special dropped and we realized just how much he hates his female fans and is such a pick me simp for men, that he went out of his way to get their attention by mocking DV victims and not even in a funny way, but in the most basic and tacky way. 😬
Father Penn makes everyone feel safe enough to come and hurl out their confessions. I love it.
As somone who has been through some major childhood/adult trauma..
I fucking love dark humor. It literally helps me release some of the weight i carry from it all. So thank you Matt for the constant laughter in my life..im a huge fan. And shoutout to Penn, man your acting skills are fucking amazing..and love the music also.. Great episode!
This is the first podcast I’ve heard where if touches on the more sensitive and deeper subjects about Matt. All the podcasts he’s done it’s always about girls and immature things. Thanks for opening up to us Matt ❤

@@masrr3678 Stay a thirsty loser.🤣
Listen to the interview with Jordan Peterson. You'll love it.
@@susanpickett863 I got bored a few minutes in, but I did realize how dense Matt really is, I mean I knew he was kind of a himbo, but this dude takes ignorance to a whole new level. 🤣 He has no self awareness or common sense, it’s bizarre. 🤔
How Penn says, “but it’s in your second house bro” 😂
I could listen to matt talk for hours he so good at story telling & giving detail I feel like I’m Interviewing him
I’ve been binging Matt rife interviews and he’s outstandingly comfortable on this one
No bc same
And then watching his gross domestic violence joke and realizing what a basic misogynist he truly is. Talk about disappointing. 🤦♀️
@@taraz6786 cope
Lmao are you 12 years old?. You've been replying to everyone saying the same damn thing. IT WAS A JOKE if you cant handle it get off the internet or stop watching him weirdo @@taraz6786
@@taraz6786you keep responding to every comment. Go touch grass and do something actually productive.
I’m having a rough day with my moms passing back in June and listening to this has made me laugh for the first time in awhile, so thanks Matt and Penn! I love this podcast! ..also I want to try ghost hunting but I’m afraid I’ll get possessed or something 😅🥴
Aww sending you a big hug and love ❤ so sorry for your loss
Sorry for your loss, hope you will feel better soon, good things are coming in your future
My condolences sweetheart. I feel you pain 100%. Glad videos like this exist and help us through it ❤❤
Love how Matt is so open here...loved the podcast
Him shouting out Zach’s dark ghost-hunting joke 🤭
Really great interview!! Came to listen as a fan of Matt’s, and leaving as a fan of Podcrushed!😎
Great to hear! Welcome :)
Exactly! ❤
The more I see Matt interviews the less hot he looks and the more i see the sweet nerd that he is. Love him. The netflix special was so compact that you have to see it twice or more to catch stuff thats easy to miss, but i almost like his youtubes more, his crowd work is legendary!

Something about Penn got Matt all comfortable. Matt fangirling over Penn makes more sense than girls fangirling over Matt.
Matt rife is everywhere! The power of not sleeping lol
When you are a kid your intuition about spirits is so strong. I remember walking into an old house owned by a friend of my dad's and as soon as I walked in it was like I was scared and uncomfortable. I remember my dad had to use the bathroom and I was left alone in the hallway and I thought something was next to me. My hair was sticking up, my heart raced, and I felt uneasy... as soon as I got out of that house I felt completely fine again. I know a lot of people don't believe in that stuff but I 100% believe in energy and bad energy was definitely in that house.
Matt spoke of his first relationship with such depth, understanding, empathy and respect I am again finding myself falling in love with everything about hearing him speak. It makes me feel real and helps me to realize things about myself. Thanks Matt
When you pay close attention, you can just see how smart and also emotionally intelligent Matt is. If you just watch his crowd work & specials its so easy to assume ( at least i admit i did ) that he could simply be this good looking, confident / cocky guy who’s incredible at roasting, but being able to see the human behind all of that, his story, his sensitivity and how polite / fun / enthusiastic/ self reflected he is, is wonderful. Wanted to share my appreciation for his authenticity! He deserves all his success! Keep it up Matt :-) well done
I'm now watching Natural Selection on Netflix. Thank you for introducing me to this gem. 💕
Penn is the dreamiest man ever😩
penn is so pleasing to look at and smart i aint gay but
"It's in your second house" cracked me up 💀
I went to see Ralphie May at The Improv in West Palm Beach. Super nice guy. We had a blunt and he smoked with us! It was awesome!
obsessed with this. was skeptical about matt before this as his humor ain’t mine, but i am in love with his energy and happy for his happiness! I hope him and his girl go far.
I LOVE LOVE LOVEE THIS PODCAST PLEASE NEVER STOP IT.
Wow Penn you are extremely intelligent and have a heart of gold💛 I love hearing you speak
Great podcast with Matt! Loved hearing about his family life, his start in comedy, and ghost hunting as his side hobby. Matt is not only a good looking guy but he is absolutely funny. I see big things happening for him.
the more I learn about Matt Rife as a person the more I like him, normally it’s the opposite with other comedians he really meant it when he said he spend 21 years developing a personality before he got hot
I was a big fan of Ralphie May and love hearing how kind he was to Matt. I'm sure he's looking down (or hopefully haunting you; lol, Matt) on all the successes that have come Matt's way with pride! And my god, Penn's voice is always mesmerizing. What an amazing person who's handsome, morally sound with an incredible voice. Great interview!!!
GREAT interview. You did a great job asking interesting questions and MATT being vulnerable. Love him! 👍🥰
I love Matt. I'm so happy he's getting his due 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😍😍😍😍😍

As someone who has parents who are still together after 23 years I can safely say that just because your parents are together does not mean they leave a good example for relationships. My parents are very toxic for not only my brother and I but for one another, but neither of them see it. On the reverse end, I have friends with divorced parents who have the best role models and examples for healthy relationships/connections. For me, I had to do alllll the work myself to figure out what was healthy cause my parents did not lead by good, healthy example
What a great episode, thank god for this podcast, you all three are doing a fantastic job!!
Thank you!
This was a good episode, loved all the paranormal talk.
LOVED this interview! So genuine and soothing.

@@taraz6786are you on a mission or something?? You keep reposting the same response on any comment that has something positive about the guest. If you dont like him, move on and watch something else. It is that easy 🙂
@@dahianarojas Nope I’m just a girl’s girl who warns others of sexist creeps who mock domestic violence victims, i.e women. You can feel free to ignore it of course, but his frat boy/ misogynistic act is basic and something that is kind of disgusting and cringe for women especially to be supporting, when he has repeatedly stated that he hates having a female fan base and in order to simp for male attention, shits on women. 🤔
This pod was much more enjoyable than the one Matt Rife did with BFFs by a mile!
This is so awesome very intriguing and interesting thanks for posting!❤
Matt described the childhood nostalgia perfectly. ✨
3:11 lmaoooo 😂 i felt the tea sizzle when she made that comment and when Penn said that.
So relatable…huge believer in ghosts too, I used to hear footsteps in the hall - it was a house in North Dakota, an old home. I still have the creeps about the house. I just remember the name of the street and it gives me the chills. LOVE THIS! Great content!!!
Great Chat❣️❣️❣️ Thank You 🕊
Matt rife is definitely a Virgo 🤣
Love the video and the interview with Matt Rife
vibing the good vibes of the spectacular podcast😍😜😜
What a great episode!
Really really didn't want to comment but omg my brain forced me lol astrology is a study of stars and constellations itself and where the planets are based within those constellations the whole personality aspect come from the zodiac house, sign and degree which is why the whole entire chart matters. We are all the 12 signs and more❤ love you all❤
Please give me podcasts like podcrushed!!!!!! I watched all the episodes, and now I can’t study without it. Please give me similar podcasts to it 😭😭😭😭 I LOVE YOU PENN ♥️
can i just watch this matt talking forever
this is super honest!
i just realized this exist and im livin for it.
When my son was a toddler, he saw something in his room that I could not. It made him giggle. I naively decided it was probably his dead great grandma and didn't think anything of it. We are taught to believe in ghosts because of interactions like this, but I realized 13 years later there are no such thing as ghosts. There are demons that can appear as randoms or as actual people that existed- they are what mediums are communicating with, NOT the loved ones people think they are. This knowledge came from learning about spiritual warfare and reading my Bible. You don't have to believe it, but consider it as you examine ghost "evidence" in the future. Back to my son...when he was 16, he heard voices telling him to hurt himself, and there is no doubt it was the same demon who appeared "as a light" and made him laugh when he was a toddler.
I couldn’t agree more the Bible is clear
For context: I am in Canada, it's winter, 10:00 pm, pitch dark outside, everyone is asleep and it is pin drop silent.
This video popped up and I thought it will be funny. I put on my airpods and you guys started ghost stories and someone banged the door so loud outside my apartment. I think, I had a minor heart attack. I am going to doctor in the morning.
Omg!! No! So sorry!!!
Must be the most engaging podcast yet
Okay but the silence at 58:13 after he says the silence was deafening was a bit too long Hahahha. I love this pod! ❤
Ive followed him since he started with the overnight channel. Its been amazing seeing such a lovely hearted person suceed and get recognition. ❤

I felltttttttt that on, "being affected by nostalgia". It hits so heavily now, and I can only hope to gift my kids with great memories
I love Matt and all his dark comedy! I’m no doubt one of his hardcore fans, FOR THE REST OF MY ❤LIFE
That is a cool movie concept!!
So far a very interesting and well done episode
My house was TOTALLY haunted too and I know this level of fear!! Unexplainable to grown ups!
Finally we know how they met each other
🔥🔥🔥
I’ve always been a fan of Penn! Never knew he had a pod though 😅
Great interview! I love nerds; I married one. ❤
The three of you are poised, intelligent, fun and relatable. God bless.
Holy crap I just woke up and watched this still groggy and for 20 mins I thought that was Chris D’elia hahaha 😂
Penn- the man the myth the legend
To you, he's Joe. To me, he's Gossip Girl. 😂
You need to have Santos Bonacci on your show who is well known for his incredible teachings on astrology and Matias De Stefano.
This was an especially lovely episode. Thanks, you guys! 💜
By far my favorite podcast with Matt! Got to talk about a lot of things that he hasn’t talked about on other shows before. And was really nice to hear about how he met Jessica Lord.

The Zach reference!!!! 💝
Matt , you are so sweet and humble. Stay that way you are changing the culture and changing people , it’s a rare gift to be this nice to the world
I just got to see Matt in STL and it was great
Matt should ghost hunt with Zak Bagans!!
Damn penn cool podcast haha
Matt was adorable as a kid the girls that didn’t go out with him were ridiculous…. He’s so sweet too. They missed out. If I was his age I would’ve dated him. But I’m 9 years older than him. Too bad.. he’s such a sweetheart. They don’t know who they lost. He’s got the most beautiful heart I’ve ever seen.
He literally opened his special with a joke about women getting abused because he decided a female audience isn’t good enough for him and he went all pick-me
This is why i love people like Matt. He stays humble, hes worked hard , kept a good head on his shoulders. I just hate how these big ticket brokers greedily steal all the tickets because i guarantee you, Matt would have much more resonable prices, if he had full control over it. Not that hes not worth 700 bucks and more, because he is!.❤ I also really like Penn, he seems very grounded as well. Nothing about this interview felt forced, love it! Its nice to see what celebs are really like, aside from when they are putting on a show. Thank you. 🥰 also i feel like Matt is such a romatic at heart. I also deeply appreciate how they can have intellectual, deep conversation. So refreshing.

@taraz6786 as females it's definitely easier to take those kind of jokes personally as it's a very real problem in the world, I'd like to think he doesn't hate his female fans as I've heard him joke about everything under the moon, no subjects are untouched by him, not just female related things. I don't know him, so I can't speak to his true character, but I'd hope that if he had a female friend and she was going through that, he'd not be picking fun at her. He's also said in interviews that making jokes out of the worst situations is how he copes with the world. As someone who's had a family member be in that situation, those jokes aren't as well received either, so I 100 percent get it. I personally think he's trying to get the male audience to take him seriously, and I guess that's how he thinks he's going to get it? I don't know? 🤷♀️
@@themagicksociety But that’s so depressing, that in order to get some cred from the male population, he thinks bashing and beating up on women figuratively and literally is the way to go. And let’s not forget, that we all love dark humour, especially women, which is why we liked his comedy in the first place but I just don’t think he is at that place in terms of talent to be able to craft a joke that is dark but also isn’t picking on victims. That takes skill and a certain level of intellect and maturity, which he seems to lack. The point is he acted like such a pick me simp for men and essentially roasts the female fans who got him famous, that it’s embarrassing at this point. I don’t plan on being one of the groupie women he mocks so that he can get scraps of male validation, it’s just so cringe and pathetic at this point. Plus there are far better comedians out there and his apology on insta just shows that he lacks emotional and intellectual depth and is really leaning into being a frat boy misogynist. 🤷♀️ I don’t respect that, especially when he has enough clout to be better but is still choosing to shit on women, especially his fan base. 🤦♀️
@taraz6786 Oh, I agree, I think true, true comedians can make people laugh about things that are not at the expense of others. There have definitely been some things he's joked about that I believe have crossed the line. It is incredibly depressing that the male population would think domestic violence is funny. I've been beyond disappointed in men as of late, but im also going through a divorce, so im a bit bitter, lol. And yes, I do think women got him to where he is, so it is disappointing that he thinks he has to make violent jokes about women in order to gain a male following. I would also agree that he needs a bit more emotional depth as well. Sometimes, you do have to show real emotion. I hope that as he goes along, he evolves. It's fine that he wants to have a male audience , but i hope domestic violence isn't what men want to hear as far as jokes go. I don't mind dark humor at all, and despite what he probably thinks, his woman's audience isn't just in love with his face. We thought he was funny, too. I wouldn't think his sweet girlfriend would be high fiveing him about domestic violence, but that could just be me. I've liked 90 percent of his stuff, but there's no need to push away his original fans just to make it with the bros. I think he can easily have the best of both worlds. He'll figure it out one way or another. After all, there is no wrath like a women's scorn lol!
@@themagicksociety Exactly and at least you are applying critical thinking. 👏 Some women are blindly following and accepting of him, regardless of his insulting and offensive tirade and him stating that he’s sick of his female fan base and wanting to replace them with men because of their weird infatuation with him. It’s bizarre but also concerning because if they can discard his conduct so easily, it makes me wonder what they let the men in their lives get away with. 🤔 You’re already well ahead of us all in that sense, considering you’re leaving a marriage that doesn’t serve you, which already takes maturity, intelligence, strength and an intense dedication to your own mental well being, and that is probably why you’re less tolerant of a disrespectful and mediocre man who shits on women. 🤔 👏
Taylor And Travis / Jessica and Matt ❤❤❤love is in the Air 🎉
I know Matt from Wild & Out. He’s funny as hell. He seems like such a cool chill guy.
And then his special dropped and we realized just how much he hates his female fans and is such a pick me simp for men, that he went out of his way to get their attention by mocking DV victims and not even in a funny way, but in the most basic and tacky way. 😬
Can we please say THANK YOU for introducing us to Ralphie May??? ❤❤❤
As an anthropology major, I took a class on "cultural geography " which is basically why people are the way they are, do the things they do, and believe the things they believe based off of where they are on the planet. Thinking about it, I feel like horoscope stuff could be the same. Game of thrones has a dramatic sense of this when they say the children have only lived during summer years and never have been through a winter so they didn't understand and were too carefree.
It's possible that the season or what's happening in the world at the time you at born, COULD definitely have an impact on your personality as you grow older.
I will say that I am a gemini so I talk too much... I feel like I fit that role well. 😂
The baby hand reaction that Penn was talking about is called the Moro reflex
Love ralphie may and I am so happy I was able to see him in CLE. Also, so bummed I missed your show in CLE.
Matt should host SNL, that would be a must see!!
He’s been getting a lot of hate lately and I hope he doesn’t take it personally he really seems like such a sweet guy 😭
Why is he getting hate?
Jealousy
@@lillylove261 because young women like him and he’s attractive lol
Wow really? I used to hear hate about him a while ago cuz of the way he acted with Zendaya in that Wild N’ Out clip but I assumed everybody loves him now. 😂
He’s a misogynist who jokes about domestic violence.
It's so funny because as Penn says astrology maybe isn't a thing he exhibits such scorpio characteristics. And I think I saw somewhere he has like 5 major scorpio placements. I agree though - taking astrology as bible can create a victim mentality. Like, someone else invented this system that's really old... so it has collective influence like any other belief system with a lot of time and numbers behind it. But you control your own destiny. You aren't beholden to a chart. My 2 cents
Matt rife AND Penn Badgley?! Where are my C batteries?!?
Not Matt treating this interview like a therapy session 🤣
There's a movie kind of like that already. "Chances Are" with RDJ and Cybill Shepherd. One of my mom's favorite movies, probably because she lost her dad when she was young too.
What is Joe doing here? 😂 This popped up on my feed and it was a great conversation, cool to hear an open conversation amongst you all 😊
this makes sense now
First time watching your podcast and my god the amount of Ads that are sometimes 10 minutes apart? 😫😫😫😫
What is the movie or show that Matt mentioned he met Jessica doing?? Anyone know?
