This was excellently filmed and edited. Totally agree that a Netflix travel show mix of food, wine, cigarettes, friends and a comedy tour in Italy would suit Matteo’s talent, humour and relatability perfectly 🤌

Would someone just give this man a travel show already? *Edit: Chris Caso also. Excellent production and filming.

This was so unpretentious and laid back, just Matteo with the help and support of Chris, sharing a joyous time in his life with us. You could tell Matteo was tired in the narration portions of the video, but I'm sure it was the very best kind of tired, from spending time doing things you enjoy with people that you care about and who care about you. Quite lovely actually.

Thank you for showing in this video something truly Italian and most of all modern Italian. Our representation in the world tends to be very 50's, but 70 years have passed. Since you have actual relationships in Rome, you portrayed a true slice of Italy.

genuinely, this is an INCREDIBLE video. the editing, the cinematography, how everything is paced and tied together. holy shit this is a very quality video

All regions of Italy please with him!!!! Would love to see him in the Italian alps

This was such a treat to wake up to♡ This was not some typical travel/food video. This was Y♡U being with friends and loving your time with them, in a country you also love. Enjoy who you are with, what you do and where you are ♡

Italians flock together. No matter our location or origin back in the old country. We flock together, always. My family is from Naples and when I discovered you, I was so happy to see a fellow Italian American who is sarcastic and funny. It’s all about love, food and sharing laughs with great people. And what better people then Italian💋💋

Went on a nice cruise, with most of it being in Italy. Absolutely fell in love with the place, people, culture/history, and art. It would take several lifetimes to appreciate it the way it deserves.

I've watched some of this man's stand-up videos and clicked on this link not really knowing what to expect. Everything about this was...flawless. This is a man in love with the food of Italy, the atmosphere of Rome, and the warmth of his friends, and it all comes across beautifully in this far-too-short video. Watched the whole thing with a smile on my face (and now an appetite for carbonara). Agree with many of the other commentators, this guy is a natural and needs his own show.

I'm now addicted to watching Matteo! He is smart and funny..always. So nice to see him having so much fun in Italy. Everyone there seemed lovely. I can see him doing a travel show, or a cooking show! I would watch both!

This cements why I would love for you to have your own show that's part cooking show/stand-up. The perfect combination. Starting the episode with exploring a city and interviewing chefs and then finishing the episode with stand-up ☺

this was the most aesthetically pleasing travel vid I've seen in a VERY long time

This reminds me of my pilgrimage to my own motherland: South Africa. I am not South African, but that is where I lived and visited during the first 2 years of the pandemic. As a black American, it was so refreshing to see my people in a positive light. The food, the culture, the music was all so invigorating! I felt so connected to my African identity despite being part of the diaspora. It was an incredibly healing time, and I am so grateful for having lived there even for just a few months.

So many of these shots are of Trastevere, one of the great neighborhoods in central Rome. And the camera doesn’t lie: it looks exactly like that all the time. It’s heaven.

I was lucky enough to be stationed in Naples for two (glorious) years - it remains the highlight of my life. Now 63yo, I look back on those days and just smile. The traveling, the food, the sights and sounds, were all amazing. Love Italy. 🥰

Netflix is seriously sleeping on Matteo.

Matteo makes it look like he really enjoys his time in Italy, but we all know he goes there just to have a smoke. 😅

Thanks for taking us on your trip! I've only been to Rome once, so I did all the touristy ancient stuff, so I'm glad to see more of the night life and locals! Have fun on tour!

I actually felt sad when I realized this video was ending I want to see so much more of you and Franscesco, your friends there in Italy seem amazing which would be awesome content (if they even want to be involved and on camera). Don't commodify your friendships but still, broadcast it a bit, it seems so fun and genuine! You made everything somehow about you in a good way, but I'm feeling as if I just merely peeked behind a curtain I genuinely want to see more of and behind!

Matteo looks so relaxed. Italians don't know how lucky they are. La dolce vita is real

Rome is just so beautiful! I am definitely going there some day.

04:50 oh, that is so typical, smoking with your friend at the kitchen window XD Glad you are coming to Italy more and more now, Matteo! Your friendship with Francesco il lovely to see, he is a great guy and such a funny comedian! BTW you had so much pasta while you were here! Are you okay?! Good Lord, hahahaha!

This video is perfection, from the chill vibes to how authentic it felt. It opens up so much more about Mateo and I hope networks are emailing and dialing numbers right now.

ive been lonely for a while now, was really hurting today this made me feel better about life thanks

I’m Italian, it’s 4 in the morning, can’t sleep and now I’m sooo hungry! 😂

Omg it's so beautiful! And the history , the food , the drinks 💖 love your style of comedy- so sassy 👩🏽‍🍳💋

This video made me so happy although we have very different lives! I’m an Irish woman living in Sydney, married to an Aussie (half Sicilian half Maltese), and with a young child yet this still resonated so much with me! I lived for 6 years in Italy (two of them in Rome) and I miss my other life and friendship group in Italy. I also share your obsession with food!

I’ve always wanted to visit Rome! This is so beautiful and the people seem so humble and nice.

In love with the pace and cinematography of the video! Gorgeous view and narrative of Rome! Loveeee!

Ugh love this. I want to go back. Now we get to watch him actually enjoy the food he is eating. Bet there won't be any cannoli king signs ; )

Gorgeous. You, Italy, the people, the comedy... all of it.

This has beautiful hints of the late great Bourdain. Done not as a copy cat but in a way of paying homage. The chemistry between Francesco & you is fantastically tangible. BRAVO! This is so well done, entertaining & funny. 👏🏼👏🏼

I love this. Please give this man a travel series.

Conan went to Italy in a popular series as an outsider coming in. But Matteo there? This needs to become a series, it would be amazing.

Matteo could make fishsticks in Cincinnati entertaining. GIVE THIS MAN A SHOW ALREADY!

So jealous I can't wait to go back to Rome (my husband & I did 2 weeks touring Italy and we spent 4 days in Rome & 3 in Florence (either one I'd love to literally live)).

Matteo is simply exceptional at what he does with so much ease! Bravissimo Bello!

This video is so amazing. The production is everything. He seems so at ease and has such a respect for his country.

You look so natural and in your element in Italia. ❤🏳‍🌈

something about this video is just so comforting yet exciting. the scenery and videography is amazing and beautiful. i love these travel videos❤

This video is 100% my fave one I have watched by you. The music, stories, food, comedy...and it was beautifully shot and edited! Really brought me 'into the moment'.

Omg what a gorgeous video!! In love with Italy 🇮🇹

What a lovely country, what beautiful people! Thanks for bringing that across!

Chris this was edited so beautifully!! Thank you Matteo for sharing a piece of Roma with us 💕

Hope there's a part 2 to this trip. Definitely too short of a video to show an amazing time in Italy 💯🔥

Everything I’ve learned from Matteo about pasta: Carbonara - Peter (meaty and filling) Pasta de la Mama - Lois (comforting and familiar) Amatricana - Cleveland (an unexpected kick) Pormodoro - Joe (bland yet satisfying) Pesto - Quagmire (nutty and fun) Cacio e Pepe - Chris (simple) Lemon Pasta - Stewie (a fruity delight) Fettucine Alfredo - Meg (shut up Alfredo!)

Excellent travelogue as hosted by Matteo Lane with beautiful videography by Chris Caso. More of this, per piacere!

Absolutely terrific on every level. Pleasant people. Superb videography.

Didn't know you knew Francesco! I am following him too on social lol he is very good especially when standing up in London and speaking about Italian culture. It's always interesting to watch italo-Americans coming in Italy and see the nuances and differences. That's why I would like to come in USA and come to see the italo-Americans culture, maybe meet some cousins which grandfather sailed for USA a long time ago... But I guess it would be so expensive.

I've never traveled overseas but always felt Italy was my place. This video confirms it

I loved every moment of this video! I felt as if I were there with you guys...I am now travel envious. I am also glad that you can you travel and see your friends. I wish you the best in everything you do. xoxo

This was such a delightful video. How is Matteo not everywhere. And the production and lighting for this video! Top tier

Thank you Matteo. Such a pleasure to follow you!!!

Loved this video. We want to see more of you in Italy, you speaking Italian and you SINGING!!!!!!

More of these tour / travel / vlog recap videos!!! I love seeing you laugh and explore things you’re passionate about

Italy is so amazing and beautiful. The food is just so good.

Thank You!!! for being just you from the heart...all the Best!!

Loved this. Love Rome. Love you! Thank you for the smile.

Yeah, the banter is something Italians do a whole lot among themselves xD

I've lived in Italy for 3 years now and omg the carbonara! I'm with you on that. That and anything with anatra 💜

Gosh I'm Italian and this video made me want to go to Rome right now

Man the music and clips at the end are an awesome touch! I miss Italy so much now! Keep these type of videos coming please, Thanks!

Loving the jazz 🌈 and those umbrella pines 🥦 🤌

OMG Di Carlo is literally the first stan-up comedian I started watching!! Great vibes, if you ever want to come to Barcelona you have huge Italian fans here too! :)

Give this man his own show. Matteo is a star 🌟

I absolutely love Rome; need to comeback!

Loved you on Colbert, and always in your videos! More please!

I suspected Matteo was much more than the rather flamboyant comedian we all know and I was right. I think I appreciate him more the way he appears here "unartificially" in his natural and unsophisticated "Italian-ness" with his friends. It has been a good surprise.

That was a great tour!! Thanks for sharing your Roman tour!

This video made me happy, and vlogs don't always hit me right so that's pretty cool. 🙂

"I'm having fried Fish Sticks in Cincinnati.... and there's no ocean or lake in Cincinnati!" facts 🤣

Anyone else write down every single food place he went to in case you go to Rome

I was in Rome in early November and made a point to eat at Luciano's. Fantastico!

Literally my favorite video yet!!! Now, just take Nick, and its a laugh riot!!

Oh, Mateo. You are living my alternate reality life. Bless you and take care. 💗

☆ Love Matteo's Comedy ♡ Thank you for sharing with us fans!!!

I came by the cellar some years ago, front seat. Matteo came up and started doing some crowd work, asked me where I was from and we proceeded speaking italian for like 3 minutes. Bet everyone else wasn't pleased, but I was lmao

Love it!! You made me want to get back to my hometown !!

I watched one of your comedy videos a few weeks ago and laughed my butt off. Now, every time I am on KZfaq I look to see what I haven't watched yet. No matter how down and out I may be your routines are guaranteed to lift my spirits. "Stay liquid"

Sono un'americano semplice: vengo in Italia, scopro che gli spaghetti con le polpette sono solo un invenzione cinematografica.. e rimango sbalordito!

I love that I don’t know what a Frappuccino is what is that😂😂😂

Give Matteo a travel show!

Love that you have great friends!!! So important!!!

Francesco doing the show with a glass of wine... Sei tutto il nostro orgoglio, Francé ahahahah

10/10 would watch the fuck out of this series

Matteo You Come Thru Wit da Life!!!!! Content On Point.

Yay ! Roma! Brought back so many memories seeing all the sights! Grazie !!

Beautiful music again. Grazie.

So utterly fabulous. Matteo, Francesco, and Chris the filmmaker are a perfect team.

How lovely, Matteo... Thanks for sharing such lovely people and places with us... Enjoy!

Hi Matteo, Great video man! Love your tour, your cooking, your comedy!!! Just purchased a ticket to your show in Cincinatti on Jan 6. My husband and I have a VIP 2person table upfront!! Can't wait to see you in person perform your great act! I have been wanting to see you for years and this is the first closest show to me!! We will be the big couple in the front. I'm 6'4' 250lb and my husband is bald and a champion kick boxer so if anyone gets smart with you up there, we gotch your back man!!!

Mateo needs a travel show... I need Mateo to have a travel show.

please go to all the different parts of Italy and make an episode for them 🙏 this was so fun to watch

Mi manca l’Italia. I only discovered your comedy today. Really, really funny stuff. I appreciate the obsession around the carbonara too :) I’m the same about all things risotto.

thank you for lighting a spot on italian comedy and culture. Many do that, but you did it in such a natura way!!!! love you

Charming slice of life.Great job!

I would love to have someone like Matteo as a friend :D cooking, eating and making jokes .. perfect

10/10 Mateo and crew - the videos just keep getting better!

I grew in Uruguay. With a grandmother from Naples, I grew up with the best food I could've ever asked for. I had Olive Garden ONCE in my life. Seeing this reminds me of Montevideo. Now I see where my customs come from. I need to visit Italy. Thank you Matteo.
