Bunnie Xo sits down with comedian and boudoir photographer Matt Mathews for a candid and often hilarious conversation about friendship, authenticity, and life in the spotlight. The two bond over their shared quirks—like avoiding pubic hair and red carpets—while digging into deeper topics of mental health, addiction awareness, and the challenges of staying true to yourself in a social media-driven world.
Matt opens up about his journey from a difficult childhood in Bessemer, Alabama, to becoming a viral TikTok sensation, selling out comedy shows, and building a career that blends laughter with raw honesty. He shares the struggles of loneliness behind the success, the balancing act between public persona and private life, and the importance of showing kindness to fans.
The conversation also highlights a pivotal moment with Jewel that inspired Matt to pursue music, sparking a collaboration and a new sense of confidence in his voice. While he admits promoting his music without falling into cringey social media trends is a challenge, Matt stays grounded, humble, and focused on blending his comedy with music in a way that feels authentic.
At its core, this episode is about resilience, the power of storytelling, and finding clarity in fame—all wrapped up with laughter and plenty of unfiltered honesty.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
