Comedian Sam Hyde took advantage of some pretty lax vetting last weekend at Drexel University's independently organized TEDx speaker series. Posing as a documentary filmmaker and journalist fresh off a trip from war-torn Mogadishu, Hyde hijacked the conference and delivered what is basically an amazing 20 minute indictment of the popular thought leadership lecture series.
