Free Mister Diplomat show featuring true stories told by Jon DeHart. Anecdotes inspire a world of absurd scenes, fully improvised by the most aggressive improv comedians in North Carolina.
Sounds like a completely different way to get to know a candidate....
Moved to Chapel Hill when I was 7 years old, graduated from CHHS, returned after a couple of years in Atlanta, built a house my wife and I plan to die in.

btw, posting this is not an endorsement of Jon
I know Jon from coaching our girls together in basketball at the Y but it is way early to settle on everyone I'm voting for. Just struck me that this is a very odd way to kick off a campaign...
Endorsements welcome
It's OK if it's an endorsement, that's what OP is for! I frequently encourage users to talk about why they like candidates, as long as they can do it without tearing others down. I also want people to post about other opportunities to meet and hear from candidates. It would be great if our calendar had a comprehensive listing of campaign events because that's otherwise hard to find.I do respect the need to learn more about the candidates, which we will all be doing...PS: Make sure you format the date correctly if you want this to show up in the calendar. I recommend using the button beneath the date field to help enter the date and time.
Cool...!
Any candidate with a demonstrated sense of humor gets extra points -- unless he or she bombs, of course. The Diplomats is a great forum for candidates and elected officials to think on their feet. WCOM's Tom Arnel hosts Carrboro candidates on the Placeholder Show airing Saturdays from 5 to 6. As guest DJ's they can say whatever they want (within FCC regs) and play their favorite music.
