Not going to lie, I thought this was a long form joke about Alex Grinch.

Wonderful work.

pretty good interview but I really wanted to know if Martin was at all worried about his family history of cardiomegaly. That could be a serious condition if untreated

Wonderful story. You should market this for future subscribers, "annual holiday story reimagined to keep adults engaged". This was really good as I have started to read "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" to my oldest. I can't watch Rudolph without thinking about last year's piece.
