Esther N MCarthy goes eye-to-eye with Mario Rosenstock andemerges amazed at his ability to instantly morphy into different personas. Genuinely.

Remember the Cyclops fella in the X-Men movies? The mutant who has to wear a special visor to protect mere mortals from the searing red lasers spurting from his eyeballs?

That’s what it feels like sitting down one-on-one with comedian, actor and impressionist Mario Rosenstock, like you need a shield to protect you from the intense burning beam of his full attention.
