Interview: Russell Brand turns tables in unprofessional MSNBC interview.

Comedian Russell Brand makes an appearance on MSNBC’s Morning Joe.. Things don’t start off well when the host makes a few condescending remarks which is just the beginning of the downward spiral this interview takes.

Kudo’s to Russell Brand for staying interesting and funny in spite of the poor interview.. 5:30 it starts getting interesting when Russell takes over.

One of the most inspirational songs I’ve heard in a long time!

Just read the story of Zach Sobiech, a teen who was suffering from a rare form of cancer. He knew that he was reaching the end of his life and turned to music as a way to leave a message behind for his friends and family.

I got chills when I heard his song, “Clouds”.

Zach has now passed away.. RIP Zach Sobiech…

Rainn Wilson, Dwight Schrute of the office posted this FANTASTIC celebrity filled version of “clouds” to help raise awareness to the song and Zach’s Ostersarcoma Fund.
