Chillpak Hollywood Hour – Season 3, Episode 93

Several weeks back, Slate published a “hit piece” on the comedic actor Martin Short, questioning his talent, his career, and accusing him of being nothing but annoying (while also acknowledging that he might just be the most genuinely decent and kind person in show business).

Grammatically incorrect? Sure. Fascinating and hilarious? You bet!
