Matt Siegel is the host of the ''Matty in the Morning Show'' in Massachusetts on KISS 108. The show has a legacy in Boston, and has been on the air since 1981. Matt has worked with a variety of co-hosts, including Bill Rossi, Lisa Lipps, and presently Billy Costa and Lisa Donovan. ==Early life== Siegel's first introduction to the spotlight came during high school. He auditioned to emcee the school talent show - a big step at the time for a quiet and reserved student. He got the gig and was told that he was a natural with the microphone. Years later, while student teaching at Stony Brook University, a professor who was amused by his classes, directed him towards show business. His first job in radio was a daytime shift in Oneonta, New York, and then in 1972 he got a job with KWFM-FM in Tucson, AZ - a radical underground progressive rock station. From there he worked as a freelance producer and commercial voice-over announcer at Warner Bros. Records. While vacationing in Boston in 1977, Siegel stumbled into a job opening with WBCN-FM. He filled in for Charles Laquidara, who had taken a leave of absence. After two months on the morning show, he was hired permanently as the midday host, where he stayed for 2½ years. There he created a spoof call-in show called "Dr. Matt’s Advice to the Love Lorn", which in-turn led to a job at WCVB-TV (Channel 5) hosting a show called "Five All Night Live". This was followed by a national appearance on "Life’s Most Embarrassing Moments" with host Steve Allen. In the summer of 1980, Seigel was offered the morning spot with KISS 108 FM.
