Sorry that this episode is a little late getting posted, but we were enjoying our Memorial Day Weekend. But Alastair is back! And alas, Roger Moore is gone. And in honor of Memorial Day, we watch a documentary about the American institution that is Frank Sinatra. A strange collection of talking heads come together to tell you the story of Sinatra that you probably already know. Not without it’s charms, but the whole thing feels a bit slapped together (and the production values are not exactly stunning). Also, Louis Walsh? Seems like a bit of a strange choice for a talking head.
