Line 24:
He went to [[Turner]] College, a traditionally African-American college, but has said in the present that, while it was a good college, he ''had'' to go to an African-American one and would have liked to have had the chance to go to a more 'high-class' one.
 
He knows restaurant franchise mogul [[Terry Perry Barlow]] through conventions and the two are on friendly terms ("[[Of Human Bonding]]"). Per comments in "Is It Fall Yet?", it is possible that he knows [[Angier Sloane|Angier]] and had recently met [[Kay Sloane|Katherine Sloane]]; he doesn't appear to know them well ([[Tom Sloane]] wasn't aware he knew them and had never met Andrew before) but was acting like they were closer.

He seems to be perpetually looking for business connections and wanting to know who's who in the business world. Socially, he always seems cheerful and positive, shaking hands and being personable to everyone he meets. He's been extremely friendly to [[Jake Morgendorffer]] both times they've met ("[[Gifted]]", "[[Of Human Bonding]]"), even though the end of "Gifted" made it clear the Landons thought the Morgendorffers were bizarre people; in "Bonding" he made a backhanded comment about the size of Jake's business compared his own (stating the pickings were too small for ''him'' but Jake should be able to get something), but this was inadvertent and meant as encouragment.
Line 33 ⟶ 35:
 
Jodie has remarked that he "thinks he's Martin Luther King" when he's trying to give a pep talk, and can say some very silly things in the attempt.
 
He is somewhat overbearing (see Family below) and can dominate the conversation, and make some very bad, embarrassing jokes, such as in "[[Is It Fall Yet?]]" when he made a lame one in front of Tom about his mother's "power" at Winged Tree Country Club. He appears to not realise when he's done this.
