RIFE ON THE ROAD:Ep.14 PHOENIX

Comedian Matt Rife throws out the first pitch for the Arizona Diamond backs! and deals with barista witches at his comedy show!

[@Dbacks]

Loved having you here!

[@bakedfreshly]

The talent, the crowd work, the podcasts he features on, TFIL videos, the Paramore appreciation, his two self-produced specials. IS THERE ANYTHING I DON'T LOVE ABOUT HIM?!

[@lynnpear20]

And he’s not a racist/homophobic and is a equal opportunity roaster as well as a super kind person!!

[@robertnikolaev2010]

@@lynnpear20 AND not dumb at all! Dude is a total history geek and obviously reads a lot

[@jillsy2815]

He also has that 1-hour "Red Flags" special🎉🎉🎉

[@Sarahalwayswithanh]

Watching Matt geek out in the locker room is so cute. So sweet to watch him live out his dream and experience these things! ❤

[@XxSakurafairy24xX]

Matt seems like the coolest dude, and can start/hold a conversation with anyone. Thats so rare and refreshing to see.

[@jillsy2815]

My thoughts exactly! Such a sincere, loving, interested dude❤

[@ScottWaa]

This is gold. Matt is is killing it professionally and he's meeting other professionals near his age. Just gold medal material! 🏆

[@allysondiane]

The way Tory was just listening and genuinely enjoying having a conversation with you guys. The questions he asked. That was amazing. Great episode.

[@gavdaddy2874]

Matt, you’re a funny son of a gun. Dude I watch all of your stuff and you are absolutely hands down hilarious. I appreciate your brother. Thanks for all the laughs.

[@Chloewaterz]

Well deserved fame. It’s about time, he use to do so many small comedy shows, and was on wildin out, idk how he did comedy to a bunch of celebrities and finally NOW he’s blowing up ❤ congratulations on all your success Matt, glad it finally worked out

[@mac0219]

Such a genuinely kind and humble dude!! I love to see good people win 👏👏👏👏👏

[@shawng7902]

I could have watched the locker room scenes and especially the office sorta interview for hours. That guy asks awesome questions. Really cool to look into how they all work through the industry.

[@zunze28]

As a Dbacks fan that was dope seeing behind the scenes and how chill our manager is. Thanks for sharing. Keep up the great work

[@deckardlisa]

[@jojoc1610]

[@AprilNewman-nz3xj]

I'm new to Matt Rife comedy. I absolutely love your dark humor. Reading about you and listening to some podcast interviews, and then watching this makes my heart happy!!! Watching people who truly do good things live out their dreams is truly heart warming. Matt Rife you have a gift I'm glad I came across your content. I will forever be a fan, if you ever return to Iowa would love to see you!!

[@calipeach4131]

[@debbiedobbins6785]

Stay humble, enjoy the ride, and don’t change…you are absolutely the bomb digity dude! Oh, and keep Alex around please…that dude’s one liners are hilarious. 😉

[@annesquivelp]

[@lynnpear20]

[@jacaria21]

Matt: "Did she have a good time?" Jeff: "No." Matt: "Good, good. She did after. That's crazy." 😂

[@SolarVixen]

That part lol

[@gazpearce3700]

Unreal Matt. Give respect you get respect and you do it bloody well mate 👍👍👍

[@Cindy_Irvine]

Love watching your videos. You're so funny and unapologetic! The world needs comedians like you. The fact that you didnt give up your dream and move back home, you just kept moving forward and now you're on 🔥🔥 is so awesome!! Congrats!! ❤

[@jillsy2815]

Such a sincere, humble, loving guy🙏🏽❤️

[@britannica...]

I'm from AZ and wish I knew about you being here😢😢 And I absolutely love baseball too but am a die hard fan of the dbacks! An old player Matt Williams/3rd baseman is a family friend of ours so I've been to his Wedding, Christmas Party, a "Secret Birthday Party" for him, and his other house up in Sedona❣️ I've also met and got autographs of a few of the old players like Randy Johnson, Matt Matei, Travis Lee, Jay Bell👍🏻👍🏻💕 I luckily went to the 2nd game of the world series here in AZ and still have memorabilia items from that game😁😁

[@ginginthatcould88]

Oh my gosh this is amazing! I'm so happy he got to tour the stadium and even throw the 1st pitch! Congratulations on making a dream come true

[@mheuman]

Congratulations on your AZ stop, I could feel your excitement meeting everyone at the Diamondbacks game. Good luck on the rest of your tour.

[@amandaschmidt11]

Best vlog ever! This brings me so much joy! I love how you love baseball, played in the Minor League growing up and now throwing the first pitch in the Major League ⚾️ This is amazing! Love the jersey too, you should add jerseys to your merch, and comfortable sweatpants too! I'm definitely watching this vlog over and over again, this is so cool, incredible blessing! I love you Matt ❤

[@jamdivi]

Man those fans in the hallway were so happy to meet you! Epic vid.

[@amandasharpe7274]

Thank you for giving us these insights into your life. It's so cool watching someone's dreams turn into reality. Honestly, it's so refreshing to see you carry yourself with such humility and gratitude, especially given your recent rise to fame. I love how down-to-earth you are, and just how normal you seem. And I mean that with respect and admiration of course. Too many people who end up becoming big in the public eye allow it to go to their head, and forget their roots, but you come across so humble, and I think that's an awesome quality to have, and it'll keep your fans around for the long haul. So, what was more awesome. This specific experience or skydiving in New Zealand? 😅 I'm sure that's an unfair question, as both seem like unbelievably incredible experiences in their own right. 🙂 But skydiving is definitely on my eventual to-do list! 👌 Keep up the great work! I can't wait to see updates as you continue to grow in your talent! Congrats on everything! You definitely deserve it! ♡

[@ivyleague1644]

I love you Matt! Can’t wait to see you in November ❤️❤️❤️

[@christi.d.777]

This is so cool and I know younger you would be freaking out and so proud of your accomplishments!! Love watching you on and off stage...such a humble dude 🫶🏻

[@joycetravillo3401]

Baby boy you are such a breath of fresh air in this horrific times. I’m a Trump supporter and chastised because you my beliefs. You bring joy to my life. Thank you sweetheart!

[@stephiimarie26]

Happy for you, glad that everything is finally working out and that you didn’t give up!!! Congrats Matt!! Can’t wait to see you at MGM Fenway!!! 💜

[@FaceFixation]

HOLY COW MATT! Carnal sin to step on the lines!! 😬😬

[@natalijaparadiso7566]

You so deserve this .......couldn't be happier for you ❤🇨🇦 hope to see you on stage soon 😊

[@hollyann003]

I love that the coach had an Eruzione hockey jersey framed on the wall. 🔥🔥🔥

[@nessp5907]

You rock! Thank you for making people laugh. You deserve everything. I hope we get to see you too! I love you from the Philippines!

[@jlegasa]

Best vlog yet, even beating out my personal fav, DC (the Abe Lincoln’s wife wanted a night out joke was a top tier). It’s pretty incredible how you can carry a conversation with people you don’t know or who might be shy/quiet. Watching you in the room with managers, it was cool watching in real time how it went from guys just “filming” to guys actually sitting around shooting the shit like there wasn’t a camera around. You make people feel at ease and carry the room…that’s what sets you apart and makes you such a great comedian. Also shout out to the guy so hyped up to get a picture with you so he could make his wife happy. That’s love right there.

[@raysam4846]

I Love your dark humor! Hopefully I get to catch a show soon 😊

[@Lily-cx1vo]

Prolly hear this all the time, but I’ve been a fan since you showed up as a random bro popping up shirtless from behind a counter on TFIL. You make me laugh every time you show up on my feed. You’re awesome 😘

[@SamanthaCorrie18]

Same here. Ever since his first debut with TFIL at cerra Gordo, I fell in love with him

[@chili_pepper]

matt: "wow, this stadium is incredible :)" also matt: "did you know some guy killed 37 parakeets with his bare hands here? :D"

[@colekitten1367]

I’m happy that you’re living out your dream Matt you’re so funny man. That first pitch experience you will remember for the rest of your life

[@notsure2759]

I met him at the dbacks game, got a photo and auto, he was so sweet!!

[@mackenzieodonnell837]

So jealous you got to meet all my guys but you deserve nothing less! Congratulations on the continued success Matt!!!

[@wendy5116]

And I remember going to center field for little league day before it was even called chase field This video just makes my heart smile and I always laugh when out of towners get a taste of our brutal summers 😂 so happy you got to experience this!

[@jkh123100]
