Comedian, UCB Founder and two-time Emmy Nominee from HBO’s Veep, Matt Walsh, helps answer the question, ‘when is it okay to laugh?’ We speak with Matt about pandemic hobbies, fathering gay and non-binary children, giving comedians space to learn from their mistakes and how men use comedy to hide vulnerability.
