Since graduating from The University of Texas at San Antonio in 2002 with a degree in
Communications, Matt Golightly resisted the urge to take a nine-to-five job and turned his, at one-
time hobby, and true love - stand-up comedy - into a career. His takes on dating, the club scene,
politics, and popular culture strike a comedic nerve with audiences of all ages. No angst, no
angry rants, just good clean fun from this self-proclaimed “square.” His personable and likeable
stage presence has taken him to clubs and college campuses all over Texas and the southwest
United States.
Matt has been seen on Fox TV, The Bob & Tom Show, LAT TV, Late Shift with Kevin Ferguson,
and recently participated in the San Francisco International Comedy Competition. He can also be
heard providing color-commentary during high-school football season along the Texas Sports
Radio Network and frequently writes for the NBA’s San Antonio Spurs website.
