Set in 1976, on the eve of her bid to become New York State’s first female senator, Bella Bella finds this larger-than-life, truth-slinging, groundbreaking, hat-wearing icon squirreled away in the bathroom of a midtown hotel awaiting that night’s election results while a coterie of family and celebs await her entrance. Directing is Kimberly Senior (The Niceties).

Told with a healthy dose of self-deprecation, A Very Punchable Face reveals the brilliant mind behind some of the dumbest sketches on television, and lays bare the heart and humor of a hardworking guy - with a face you can’t help but want to punch.

Robotic Speed reader.
While I loved the individual stories, the delivery was distracting. It is crazy to me that a book on Music production was very poorly produced. Auctioneer like speed reading that stutters frequently is hard to listen to this book. However, it is better that listening to the lawnmower roaring.
