In other Chappelle news, the show announcements come about a month after news broke he bought land in a small Ohio community to spite a developer. He reportedly purchased 19 of 52 acres of land in Yellow Springs, Ohio, to block Oberer Land Developers, Ltd. from building a huge subdivision on the property.
Chappelle, who is originally from Washington D.C., moved to Yellow Springs during the height of his success in the early 2000s. He currently lives there with his wife and three children.
