Chappelle is set to buy a former fire station near his Ohio hometown with plans to turn it into a comedy club. The Dayton Daily News reports that the Miami Twp. Fire Station in Yellow Springs will be sold to the 47-year-old actor’s company and turned into a club that will seat 140 people. (Photo by Owen Sweeney/Invision/AP, File)
Dave Chappelle is hosting another post-election SNL.
Rumors are swirling that some of the writers are boycotting working with him over his Netflix special, The Closer. As he heads into his third day of meetings with the cast and writers his camp says there has been no talk of an alleged boycott.
Dave’s rep says the first two meetings with the staff were full and everyone is pitching sketch ideas as they normally would.
Do you think it is insensitive to have Dave host?
