Have you been living under a rock?

It's hard for me to keep up with world affairs and national news. Mostly because I find it boring. Ok, it's not boring, the way it's presented bores me. Why? It's either way too debby downer, or way too repetitive, or mean, or blah blah blah... sometimes, I don't even care for TMZ.com (gasp!---targeted at my demographic). I'm more into reading newspaper comics but I check out yahoo news occasionally, and if I mention almost any topic to my older sis, it's the same reply: Uh, I knew about that 2 days ago!

Uh, the news must not be going out of its way to inform me. Alexis: last one to know... until now...

So, I can't remember what I was googling, but I stumbled upon someone right up my alley, someone funny, someone that didn't make news "boring". His name is Philip De Franco, folks, and he's on youtube and has his own website http://phillyd.tv

Apparently he's been around since 2006. Why am I just finding him??? Oh yea, I don't actively seek out the news...and...I've been living under a rock? Well, that's quickly changed over the past week for me as this dude does a 3 minute show about what's going on TODAY. Although a dorky appearance, this quick witted 20 somethin' year old explains the news and also asks the audience a simple, yet complex question about a certain topic presented.

Check him out, I think you'll see his potential and I wouldn't be surprised if this guy is on TV one day...
