Mat Freeman is an author, artist, performer and producer (and a recovering restaurant consultant). He's also typing this shit. I've done stuff and I do stuff. Like a YouTube game show, standup, this podcast. I paint, try to sell shirts, fail, try again, wallow. Then I write another podcast 'about' section to feel better about myself, fail, write it again... I started this with "interviews", transitioned to a game show, and I can only imagine what it is at the time of you reading this.
I'm Mat Freeman, it's my table, and this is a quick look at what's on it, including the Freeman's Table Game Show, FT Streamin', and now also FT Cracked.This is a video version you can find on Patreon and on YouTube, but the audio says exactly the same thing. Support the show

About AppetizersI finally have a direction that doesn't include anger at planet earth and her dirty little tricks, or the dirty little tricks of politicians and governments. So far, outside of ranting like an unhinged lunatic, most of this podcast is about the creative side of my life, as it pertains to comedy, art and performance - but we begin to steer the ship toward the work that's sustained me throughout: restaurants, bars, clubs - shit like that.
