The first teaser for fan-favorite comedian Matt Rife‘s debut Netflix comedy special, Matt Rife: Natural Selection, is finally here!
Matt filmed the special at the DAR Constitution Hall on September 22 and 23 as part of his best-selling tour. He is one of the executive producers of the project. Be sure to watch when it debuts!
After having amassed a large social following through his viral content showcasing his quick wit and crowd work, Matt embarked on a sold-out world tour. Now in his first Netflix comedy special, Matt leaves no topic untouched – from crystals to social media trolls – and no audience member spared.
The special will debut on Netflix on November 15th.
It comes after Rife, who has spent 12 years on the road, broke out during Covid, when he and comedian friend Paul Elia launched Lowkey Outside. A semimonthly, socially distanced comedy show, spun off from one they’d done at The Comedy Store pre-pandemic, Lowkey saw the pair performing for small crowds from the bed of a pick-up truck, in the back of apartment complexes and event spaces across Los Angeles.
He has also gone viral on TikTok, where he has over 16.7M followers and more than 5B views.
Rife previously self-produced and distributed through YouTube his first one-hour comedy special, Only Fans, which garnered 9.8 million views. He then self-released his second special, Matthew Steven Rife, on YouTube which was taped in Austin, Texas before putting out a crowd work-focused special in June.
