Episode 1 - JFK and Robert Dallek!

[@anthonyruggier7029]

I love this essay collection, my favorite of his.

I miss Hitchens. He's been dead 12 years and I miss him. Gore Vidal too. There are far fewer real characters around than there used to be. (Oh dear, am I slipping into old-man mode?) Anyway, good luck with the channel, Mr Spivey!

I thought this was going to be about Alfred Hitchcock. 😂 Great video. What a character Christopher Hitchens was... the Kennedy brothers, too, for that matter.

It makes for very fecund reading Randy! Thanks for the compliment!

Hitch is sorely missed

"As an up and coming reviewer ... I am somebody who wants to get into the gristle of the book, not somebody who wants to use the book to pontificate on the books subject matter." I think this is correct procedure. As Gore Vidal said, "Describe what is going on. Description, not opinion."

I couldn't agree more!
