I am, as you may be aware, out of town this week. But, as people will tell you just because they’re on vacation, it doesn’t mean that the world stops. It doesn’t mean that others take a break. It doesn’t mean… oh, well, you get the point.

All of that is to say that there’s a new Lass is More this week and that if I’ve done everything right, it should be embedded and totally and completely streamable below. If I’ve done this wrong, you’re just going to have to go to iTunes to download it.

As for the topic, I thought I’d take on something truly difficult the week I’m out of town and can’t respond to comments, so it’s the Award-winning documentary “Citizenfour” that we’re discussing. I’ll tell you right up front, I didn’t love it. It left me cold and I think that it’s impact is only something we’re going to be able to judge in 50 or 100 years. And worse than that, I’m not entirely sure that I believe that anything will change just because of the Snowden revelations (and, let’s face it, those revelations exist whether or not this documentary does).

Take a listen, enjoy, and remember, I’m somewhere sipping an umbrella drink right now.
