On the Firing Line with Ammo Grrrll

Scott Johnson joins host Steve Hayward this week for a podcast book party celebrating the launch of a collection of columns from "Ammo Grrrll," Power Line's Friday morning humor writer, Susan Vass. Ammo Grrrll Hits the Target is a collection of the first year of Susan's Power Line columns, which have become a hit with readers. Susan is a retired stand-up comic, and this episode talks about the terrifying world of comedy club performances, where "you either kill or you die," as Ammo Grrrll puts it; why comics are the most needy performance artists—even more than singers (though she explains why "all singers are chick singers"), and how she got the nickname "Ammo Grrrll" in the first place. She also explains the difference between her previous home in Minnesota, which is "snarky nice," and her current home of Arizona, where people are truly more polite because more Arizonans are armed. We celebrate some of her best columns on weight loss and sex, because of course we do.
