Summary

Scott has just 1000 pages left to read in The Power Broker, which he was inspired to begin reading by the documentary Turn Every Page, which Tom has just seen as well, detailing the decades old working relationship between Robert Caro and Robert Gottlieb. In addition to his powerful and precise writing, Caro exemplifies the German word, referred to in the film, “sitzfleish”, the ability to focus, sit and work hard for several hours at a time. Which begs the question, “If Scott can read The Power Broker, why has it taken him almost ten years to finish the Johnny Carson book?”
