    So excited for the debut stand-up special of my very best friend, Stavros Halkias.

      I don’t have any friends but if I did I’d want them to be Stavros Halkias.

    Stav's going to be in movies, I could see him in all sorts of things without being the same guy over and over. He really becomes different people when he tells a story. Great special.

      I thought this too! Could be a great character actor. Would fit so well in a film set in the 70s.

      He was in a small indie film where he plays a cult leader of sorts and it was hilarious.
