Why Matt Rogers Calls Himself the Prince of Christmas

Today on the show, Sam gets into the Christmas spirit with comedian and actor Matt Rogers. You know him as one of the hosts of the hit podcast Las Culturistas with his friend Bowen Yang. He’s also known as the self-declared Prince of Christmas, after making one of the funniest holiday comedy albums ever — Have you heard of Christmas. His holiday tour begins next month with dates across the country. Sam and Matt chat about how capitalism inspired his Christmas spirit and break down the pop culture news of the moment.
