Excited to be part of Todd Bieber’s terrific monthly storytelling podcast (is there any project this guy doesn’t do an extremely well job with?)! Thanks Todd! Also stories from Josh Ruben, Kate Riley, & Kelly Hudson! My story is about getting a subscription to Playboy Magazine my freshman year in college to help me with… my film classes!

I can’t believe that some people in my beloved Hoboken are actually trying to ban TONY THE ICE CREAM MAN from town! I repeat ‘they are trying to BAN MR. SOFTEE, aka TONY, the ICE CREAM MAN (the man who drives an ice cream truck that makes so many young people, and ‘young at heart’ people… HAPPY)!!!’ What is the rational reasoning of all this: Supposedly his truck makes too much noise! WHAT??????? Is this some kind of sick joke. I’ve been getting ice cream from Tony for the past 10 years. He’s the man. Does he always complain that business is slow? Perhaps, but that’s part of his quirky charm. Would Santa Claus be banned from the North Pole? Would Sinatra be banned from Leo’s Grande Vous? Come on Hoboken, focus on curbing doggie doody, not banning poor Tony! Here’s the petition to save TONY!
