Started with physical book. Finished on Audiobook. Really needed some pop culture journalism during a stressful time and this fit the bill. One of my bigger takeaways was how Siskel & Ebert's rise and the proliferation of their banter as 20th century memes was due to their willingness to shake down major entertainment companies for money and for respect. They maintained ownership of their format, shopped it around multiple times, and kept committed to it until their health gave out. Respect.
