Interview with Rob Delaney

Last week I had the pleasure of interviewing comedian Rob Delaney. Along with stand-up, Delaney writes a very funny column for Vice Magazine and has a Twitter following over 400,000-strong.

Jonin’ Jihad – The Jaheim Suit Edition

I have always liked Jaheim. The man is an R&B singer who actually sings like a grown man as opposed to a nasally, bird-chested little boy. For that, I respect him.

Kofi: Barber to the Stars

Apparently, my barber is a superstar. Kofi, the man pictured above working on my way-too-long-at-the-time hair, seems to be getting quite a bit of celebrity clientele lately. A month ago, I found myself in there while Jesse Jackson Jr. was getting a haircut and holding court. Then yesterday, soccer superstar Charlie Davies of DC United [...]
