Moody McCarthy is a stand-up comedian who has performed on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Conan, and Late Show with David Letterman. He lives in New York City with his wife and two wee lasses.
Moody has performed at the best clubs in the land and can be heard on SiriusXM. He’s also been featured on America’s Got Talent and Last Comic Standing, but gets asked more about his House Hunters episode.
Moody was born “Matthew” into a big Irish family where – by law – someone gets a nickname. He began doing comedy in Upstate New York in the 1900s, and covered sports on Syracuse’s top radio show before moving to New York City.
Moody’s material is described as original but universal, and smart without being trite. Couple that with a disarming stage presence & in-the-moment chops, you’ll see why he’s earned the admiration of his peers for his ability to “go up cold.” Corporate outings, fundraisers, private parties – you name it, this versatile performer will brighten any event.
His recent DryBar Comedy special has over 1,000,000 views.

“I looked through a lot of stand up comedians for my husband’s 50th birthday party and decided to hire Moody. My husband and our guests had tons of laughter at the party. Moody’s the one to hire if you are undecided!”

“Moody McCarthy was awesome. Very professional and very mindful of our audience, no off-color jokes. He had us all laughing until our stomaches ached. We would highly recommend him!”
Alexandra B.
Moody was so great to have here at UMass. We had a lot of things going on the day he was to perform and he was incredibly patient and understanding throughout the whole thing. One of the nicest people I’ve ever met as well.”
