      VANCOUVER — Offbeat celebrity interviewer Nardwuar the Human Serviette is recovering from a stroke in Vancouver.
      The humorous TV personality and musician, whose real name is John Ruskin, has the news posted on his Twitter account.
       
      The posting issued Wednesday night says the 47-year-old YouTube star suffered the stroke at a party in Vancouver.
       
      It also says he's recovering at Vancouver General Hospital.
