I Just watched Mychael
Urban, whose reporting I typically find
less than Spectacular, do an
outsTanding
Interview
iN which some of the most personal
questions I’ve ever seen poseD to a pro

clarity with whicH these most delicate

Extraordinary
piTcher and person just
tHat much more than I
already dId.
That’S really all I had
To say,
Except that you should
wAtch for yourselves, as I have linked to
