I’m going on tour! Starting April 28, I’ll be traveling coast to coast to celebrate the release of my new book, SNAFU: The Definitive Guide to History’s Greatest Screwups.

The book is a deep dive into some of the most spectacular faceplants in modern history—government mishaps, corporate chaos, epic human error—all told with a healthy dose of humor and hindsight.

I’ll be joined by some incredible guest moderators in each city (more on them soon), so if you’re nearby, grab a ticket at the link below and come join the fun!

The #Chicago doc "Hoop Dreams" turned 30 this year.

I talked to the stars and filmmakers about their thoughts on the film's legacy. They are doing a panel at @chihumanities Saturday.

The way I got outta my head tonight (after this intense week) was to volunteer for @chihumanities and the panel discussion, "Hoop Dreams at 30". With the 2 stars of the documentary (Arthur Agee & William Gates), the producer, director, and J.A. Adande moderating. Just fantastic.
