CHATTER AWAY: Overnight Open Thread

October 31, 2021 JMG Community, Open Thread

His hilarious political and pop culture parodies have brought him more than 680,000 subscribers on Youtube. That’s because Randy Rainbow knows how to get a laugh. He’ll rely on those talents as grand marshal of this year’s Village Halloween Parade.

“I’m a Halloween person. I’m a Halloweenie. Am I allowed to say that on NY1?” asked Rainbow. “Clearly if you watch my videos you know I’m a person who enjoys dressing up in costumes.”

This gig is right up his alley and it’s a first for the comedian, which is an honor he doesn’t take lightly, especially given how much the city needs some comic relief.

#HappyHalloween from all of us at #DuggalVisualSolutions! We are so excited that #NewYorkCity’s 48th Annual Village Halloween #Parade is taking place today at 7pm, Presented live by NY1 at 8 pm! Wishing everyone in #NYC and all over the country a #spooky (and safe!) #Halloween! pic.twitter.com/7CLG6hN9Bc
