Matt Buechele (Tonight Show, Netflix) on the Hidden, Meaningful Moments Writing Jokes and Making Music

In this new miniseries called, um … MINI-Series … we’re exploring how the tiniest pockets of creativity can have a big impact on our ability to create work that resonates.
* * *

Today, joke writing and comedy songwriting with Matt Buechele. Matt is a writer, musician, and hilarious human who's performed original songs for Netflix commercials and worked as a writer on The Tonight Show, where he wrote jokes and music for the likes of Jimmy Fallon, Matthew McConaughey, and Lin-Manuel Miranda.

Together, we explore some of Matt’s projects, including his viral social media videos and his Tonight Show smash hit, This Christmas Will Be Different. We also hear the story of how he ended up at the show, as well as what a writer for such a program ACTUALLY does. Plus, we learn to like the little golden moments where we can say, Hey, yanno what? That's pretty good.
