Doug Elfman Show
Elfman And Dave Berns (@daveberns)
Award-winning journalist Dave Berns said he wanted to be on my show, and since he's an old friend of mine, and since my dad spilled red wine on his carpet during Thanksgiving once, I said, "Yes, of course," and I Google-mapped over to his house for a funtertaining conversation about Barbara Walters, Trayvon Martin, governors, Robin Leach + sex, and our long-lost Jewfros.
