Backstage Intros: Meet MattSuda

[Jamie]

Who are you?

I'm Matt Suda.

Tell us a bit about yourself.

I am a comedian who has Asperger Syndrome. I enjoy making people laugh and smile. It's my favorite thing to do. There is just something about laughter and joy that makes me happy. I have a strong passion for technology, music, and movies.

Favorite cartoon from your childhood and why?!

Ahhhhh... I can't pick a favorite, so I'll list my top 4. Oh and no explanation as to "why" is needed 😉

• Dexter's Laboratory 
• Courage The Cowardly Dog
• The Powerpuff Girls
• Rugrats

What are you most proud of?

I'm really just proud to be alive on this magical rock in space we call "Earth". 😃

If people weren't already aware, you have a reputation as a pretty prolific YouTuber. What inspires you to create a new video? Do you have any personal favorites? …and will there ever be a follow up to the smash hit music video 'Noodles'?

What inspires you to create a new video?

After discovering YouTube when I was 12 back in 2007, I was hooked on watching videos for entertainment. There's just so many creative videos that make me smile. In 2010, I thought to myself, "Hey, I'm pretty funny! I should make videos and see if people like them." I then started making comedy videos and somehow I gained an audience. I started interacting with my viewers and I gathered all the feedback to try and improve my videos. Other people inspire me. When people tell me my video made their day, or that it made them laugh, it inspires me to make more videos. I may not be that popular on YouTube, but nothing will stop me from trying to grow my audience.

Do you have any personal favorites?

All of them? 😉

Will there ever be a follow up to the smash hit music video 'Noodles'?

I have no idea. It would be really cool to team up with some major artists to make a music video. Dillon Francis is one hilarious dude! 

Spotify should hook me up with Dillon Francis so we could make a comedy music video together. An electronic comedy song with a killer video! Even if he had to edit my vocals to make them sound cool, I would totally love that! Please tell me you are actually going to accept this offer and try to hook me up! You have the resources to make it happen! 😉

I would also like to meet Selena Gomez. Someone please make it happen! Look at how many Selena Gomez references I make in my videos. I want to make a video with Selena Gomez.

So, about your hair... We hear that people come up to you in the street to ask about it. What's the secret? How exactly do you get it so soft?

Yep... people will randomly come up to me and ask if they can touch my hair... of course I always say yes. After they touch it they start freaking out over how soft it is.

I honestly don't know why my hair is so soft.

All I do is wake up, wash my hair in the shower with this shampoo, and then dry it. That's all there is to it, so not much of a secret. WHOOPS I just revealed what shampoo I use...

Finally, tell us your best joke?

Here's a joke:

Boom! Shots fired...
