He dyed his hair blue, trained for a pilots license, built an ultra light aircraft, joined the crew of Challenge Team Spirit, a 72-foot cutter, in a trans Atlantic yacht race and then spent three years sailing across the Atlantic & Pacific Oceans with his then girlfriend (and now wife) Melissa.Matt is sometimes affectionately referred to as “Matt-apedia” because he seems to know everything from strange ingredients in toothpaste, to how to fix a diesel engine, to the philosophy of Kierkegaard.
