How come these dudes never want to tell us about how many hours they have spent in their home district doorknocking to get out the vote Please, feel free to be condescending after you tell us that you have spent fifty hours this month getting democratic voters prepped to go vote
lol this is relevant considering what audiobook I have been listening to for the past week or two Lorne may have had something back during the not ready for prime time players era but homeboy has been noticably cooked since I hit the 1990 season in this book
Really really need, especially after all the wretch-inducing 50th anniversary lionization, for the Gillis kerfuffle to underscore the not-pervasive-enough notion that Lorne Michaels is a bad producer
