And then things changed.The nature of the business changed.And the path to dealing with those changesgetting older, trying to survive in an ever increasingly negative and cutthroat worldbecomes a story of reinvention and rebirth.Through it all, Kimmel tells his tale with wit, candor, affection, and self-effacing honesty.
