That’s how Michael Nora describes my friend Matt Labash in a recent New York Press interview. That doesn’t seem quite fair. Or even a little bit fair. Labash is funny, unpredictable, and smarter than anyone ever gives him credit for being. Also, he can write.
Oh, and one more thing: That’s Matt Labash, not “Matt LaBash.”
Still, the interview is worth a read.

But “LaBash” sounds so much more sophisticated, so much more high IQ. Almost French, in fact.
