The Man Who Ate New Orleans

A friend of mine, Michael Dunaway from Paste Magazine, told me about a film that he's directing. What he shared with me was very interesting and I thought you might like it as well.

The film is about a New Jersey pastor who moved his family to New Orleans AFTER Katrina to help rebuild, fell in love with the culture, and decided to become the first person in history to eat at all 603 restaurants in the city. But on a deeper level? It’s about the two most beautiful aspects of New Orleans — celebration and community — and how they play out through the city’s music, food, and rebuilding.

The film’s proceeds will go to the New Orleans Rebuilding Fund of Redeemer Presbyterian Church and to one additional charity each from the music, food, and rebuilding areas.

As of September 1st, the sport of racing will never be the same again. Revolution Racing, a team that is part of NASCAR's Drive For Diversity Program, provides a behind the scenes experience into the world of racing from a non-traditional point of view. Women and minorities which have typically been under represented will be training for a chance to compete on a national stage and help change the face of the sport. BET will be airing the docu-series in a attempt to bring it's audience into the world of NASCAR. I'm excited to see how this will turn out. Max Siegel and the guys at Revolution Racing have been working hard on this much need project for close to a year. Here's a trailer for the upcoming series. Shout out to Brandon Thompson as well!
