@simon__roberts@FerroEgo I once knew a salesman who adored the play. Probably read only four books his entire schooling, but Glengarry Glen Ross spoke to him like nothing else. Apart from ‘Wall Street,’ of course. Gordon Gekko was his exemplar.
@simon__roberts Launching that podcast we talked about many moons ago. Likely to be titled Kimberland Calling. Intro BBC Home Service, wartime Beethoven’s Fifth kind of thing. On Substack, 4.6k subs (how did that happen?). About to peer over the parapet & gaze into no man’s land.

MEN AGAINST DARKNESS, @lukesgilfedder, #Islander 5
