In Episode 23 of the Brand Slam podcast, hosts Steve Rosa and Joe Kayata attend the Matt Light Celebrity Shoot-out at Addieville East Farm. They interview Matt Light about his New England Patriots career and transition to his eponymous foundation brand. Plus, the laughter is non-stop with comedian and actor Lenny Clarke who was in Something About Mary, Rescue Me, and DraftKings commercials.
This event, organized by three-time Super Bowl champion and Light Foundation founder Matt Light, raises funds to provide young people with hands-on learning experiences outside of their everyday environments. Matt reflects on his transition from being a New England Patriot to leading the Light Foundation. He shares how the lessons he learned on the field—successes, failures and the people he met—served as a catalyst for the Foundation's growth.
A supporter of the foundation, Boston comedian Lenny Clarke, a well-known figure in the comedy and acting world, adds a touch of humor to the episode. With a career that spans movies, TV shows and TV commercials, including the memorable Sam Adams Super Bowl commercial, he discusses the importance of authenticity, especially in Boston. He shares funny anecdotes from Hollywood auditions and these iconic commercials, while underlining the crucial role of humor in advertising and everyday life.
