Malcolm Gladwell

It's maybe my favorite Hollywood story ever.

And as you may know, Gary Goldman is interpreting the film's hidden message as an act of graciousness on Disney's part.

Would you ever consider talking about this for my podcast, even five minutes?

Even if you just want to say something brief and funny?

I just saw it with my four-year-old.

Anyway, I know this is a long shot, but thought you might enjoy a little distraction from your day.

M. He writes back, First of all, great to hear from you.

And the picture of you with a four-year-old makes me smile.

Kids are truly life changers and blessings, aren't they?

Then he goes on, regarding Zootopia and Gary, I am sorry to tell you, I cannot comment.

I should say, Bob Iger is an incredibly kind and gracious man.

And there is a version of this story where he is the hero, the greatest of all heroes, the kind who can never publicly acknowledge their courageous act.

There is also a version where he was the victim of a crime so perfect that he can never bring the offender to justice.

We will get there.

I promise.

Okay, would anyone else talk?

I called up Hollywood big shots, moguls.

No one would go on the record.

Don't use this.

Or you can use this, but don't use my name.
