Comedian, author, and podcast host Matt McCusker,<\/a> who may have the most fascinating website homepage ever, will embark on his first-ever 18-city (so far) North American theater tour, which kicks off on Jan. 16 in Houston \u2014\u00a0 a long way from his Haverton, Penn. upbringing.<\/p>\n McCusker describes himself as a \u201cstern, yet loving father and a sexually-dedicated husband who places God above all things, adding, \u201cAfter spending much of my young life engaging in mostly non-violent criminal activity, I\u2019ve dedicated the rest of my days to the pursuit of peace and harmony.\u201d<\/p>\n More from Billboard<\/strong><\/p>\n Unless McCusker is pulling an Andy Kaufman, there\u2019s no tongue-in-cheek stuff here. The \u201cThoughts\u201d section of his website cites Victor Frankl. The psychiatrist and philosopher who developed logotherapy, which proposes that the search for meaning is man\u2019s primary motivation.<\/p>\n The Healing Frequency Tour follows his successful Netflix special, A Humble Offering, which premiered in October and reached No. 8 on the platform\u2019s series chart. His first special, 2023\u2019s The Speed of Light, amassed nearly 4 million views on YouTube. He also co-hosts Matt and Shane\u2019s Secret Podcast with Shane Gillis<\/a>, which is the No. 1 Patreon podcast globally, boasting more than 5.5 million monthly downloads and a consistent Top 15 spot on Spotify\u2019s comedy charts.\u00a0Musical artists who have appeared include Skrilla, Action Bronson<\/a> and the R&B group Dru Hil<\/a>l.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m very pumped about this tour,\u201d McCusker said in an announcement. \u201cIt\u2019s bound to be fun and exciting for everyone involved.\u201d<\/p>\n McCusker, who grew up about an hour from Gillis\u2019 Mechanicsburg, PA hometown, is tight with the Tires co-creator. (Go Birds.) When Gillis hosted<\/a> ESPN\u2019s ESPY awards in July, he told the crowd, \u201cFour-time WNBA all-star Brittany Hicks is here. Give it up for Brittany.\u201d The cameras zeroed in on McCusker\u2019s wife, Brittany, who is a police officer and a podcast host. \u201cI knew none of you knew WNBA players. That\u2019s crazy you [clapped for] it.\u201d<\/p>\n Artist pre-sale tickets go on sale Tuesday, Nov. 18 at 11 a.m. ET.
