Zach Mann was
the ultimate ‘boy next door’ on MTV’s
the Real World [Key West]. We were lucky enough to catch
up with him on a recent trip down to Mexico & he
stood out as a perfect example of what it means to be
a wise-ass: the kind of guy who knows what he wants and
goes after it!
He’s busy producing a new comedy called ‘The
Life & Times of Lucky Cucumber,’ which stars
Preston Lacy from the MTV movie ‘jackass.’ Zach
was cool enough to give the cast, including Preston,
some Wise-Ass gear. We’ll have pictures of that
on our site soon!
Here’s what Zach had to say about his new
