On Saturday, February 21 we bid a blistering farewell to Matthew Mandli, a razor-sharp Midwest comic whose résumé includes working clubs across the region, winning the Minnesota State Yo-Yo Championship, and finishing second at Comedy on State’s "Madison’s Funniest Comic" competition. He’s known for tight, clever joke writing and a distinctive stage presence that makes meticulous construction feel slightly unhinged.
Hosted by:
Sasha Rosser
