I loved the book. Well read. Great stories. Learned all about a period of Bats life that’s never talked about. The period between when he was sky
Masterson and that last column.

A hilarious, nostalgic trip back to the '80s

Mike Sacks absolutely nails the absurd and wonderful world of the 1980s. From fashion fads to pop culture obsessions, "Passable in Pink" made me laugh out loud. Sacks has a wicked sense of humor and the audiobook's narration brings it to life perfectly. This is a must-listen for anyone who grew up in the '80s or just loves a good dose of nostalgic humor.

Being able to be the guy who translated this cinematic masterpiece that was lost forever to the ears of today is quite an accomplishment, but Eric Martin uses the genius works of Mike Sacks (and the Terence Mann-like) James Taylor Johnston masterfully. I love the way the Dukes of Hazzard type music bookmarks the chapters. It is a real pick me up and becomes something I looked forward to while listening. Jon Hamm is so good in this. Word is that his father worked in the trucking business and I feel like he really embraced the character and shined in this. Give it a shot if you like to laugh and if you like great things. Mike Sacks is a hilarious writer.

Hilarious book that makes a lot of specific Wild West jokes actually if you are into the subject. Loved it.

Brilliantly read and written. Simers is the utmost authority on the subject and he is no fanboy. Very critical look at Jesse James.

I had never cared about moby dick and then adding the Ken burns doc channel and watching the accompanying documentary they made for this book led me to listening. So compelling. Movie was good too.

I guess because Jr. had these concussion problems he is supposed to get a pass for publishing a book he put very minimal effort into writing. The concussion problems are the whole book. He talks a little about the Earnhardt family history which is so far and away the best part of the book it isnt even funny. Notes off your phone? There is nothing here. Repetitive and boring. I wish he wrote about something that makes him happy instead of this which read like a book report he had to do. Returning this one.
