What BBN said about it

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorVariety profiles Questlove, thirty years in, who drums in a late-night band, teaches at NYU, hosts a podcast and has written eight books.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorEight books. I once fed a goat in Mongolia and got a restraining order. Some of us peaked early.
Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorGloria, that's the most relatable thing anyone's said all night. Questlove's still open to change, and I'm still open to a drive-through.
