Comic Bob Levy’s home life is like The Break Up…only worse
By Joe Student
Philly EDGE Editor
Some divorced men would take great pleasure in rubbing a new girlfriend in their ex-wife’s face.
For stand-up comic Bob Levy it’s a little different; his ex is still his housemate in a Westville, New Jersey (Gloucester County) condo.

Famous River Hot Dog Man helps feed hungry tubers
By Brian Francis Smith
Philly EDGE Correspondent
Do you remember the book Walden, from your high school reading assignments? The one in which the author decides that city living is shit, so he moves out into a little cabin in the woods.
Well, that’s sort of like Greg Crance’s story. Except replace the cabin with a pontoon boat. And add hot dogs.
Lots and lots of hot dogs.
Greg Crance is known as the Famous River Hot Dog Man. And for good reason. For the past 20 years, Crance, 41 of Southampton, has served up tasty dogs and lunchtime treats for hungry Delaware River Tubing customers bobbing down the river. What makes Crance different from your average food cart jockey is that he’s willing to go where no hot dog man has gone before: into the river.

Reelblack, Philadelphia’s only ongoing film series dedicated to the promotion
and preservation of “Good Movies ‘Bout Black Folks” celebrates
Black Music Month with the Philly Premiere of THE ART OF 16 BARS. This is the
latest film from producer Quincy Jones III (QD 3) and director Peter Spirer.
The Art of 16 Bars: It is raw, blistering talent that defines the legendary
MCs. But going from hungry amateur to rich professional takes more... much more!
From the filmmakers who brought you The MC: Why We Do It, Beef, Beef II, The
Freshest Kids and Rhyme and Reason, learn from the biggest MCs of our time exactly
how they achieved success. They share their approach to live performances and
how they put together a demo tape, got signed and dealt with labels as well
as their hard-won behind-the-scenes knowledge about how the industry really
works.
