Description

Comedian and filmmaker Josh Edelman fought back against losing his hair by shaving his head at the end of his upcoming comedy special, but is now letting what's left grow back. Despite acknowledging that he looks cooler with a shaved head, he's still hanging on. Elke and Josh debate the virtues of hair that grows like vines versus sheds glitter, and Josh recalls the time a girl he wanted to impress was a little too excited to shave his back hair.
