Produit par Donald Démosthènes Ce podcast a été difficile à produire pour Donald.

8-24-2
MONTREAL – I woke this morning wishing that yesterday was just a nightmare, wishing it was still Saturday January 25th when LeBron surpassed Kobe’s record, wishing Kobe and Gianna, Sarah Chester and her daughter Payton, John, Keri and Alyssa Altobelli, and coach Christina Mauser and Ara Zobayan were enjoying their Saturday. Instead, Sunday was the…

Here comes the son avec Paul Beaubrun
MONTRÉAL – Durant sa fin de semaine dans la métropole dans le cadre du Festival Nuits d’Afrique, j’ai eu la chance de rencontrer une artiste que j’admire tellement.

Mr. Idris “The Versatile” Elba

It’s the scene where Idris Elba’s character, Stringer, the best fictional gangster on TV (move over Tony Soprano!), met Howard “Benny” Colvin. Stringer was a good cop in the show,…
