Marlon Wayans Talks About Family, Craft Beers, And More With Connor Kenney

Marlon Wayans is in the Quad Cities for the first time ever. He already knows about the meth we have here and he doesn't seem too excited to try Quad-City Style pizza. He's from New York and obviously they have better pizza there.

Before his show at the Adler Theatre on Thursday, Sept. 19th, 2024, Marlon visited the B100 Studios to talk with me about craft beer, big family, and more.
