Didn't Brokaw once earn his living by talking?

He sounds nearly unintelligible.

1. He was born with a defect in his throat. I knew him years ago before he got to be a turd
and his brother lives a block from me. Not defending his politics, just explaining about his speech problem. :D

3. Well, you pick a career that relies on your voice...

4. I kinda respected his resolve by trying to overcome that handicap. I guess not everyone
does.

7. Oh, I respect his resolve to overcome his handicap. Absolutely.
Many viewers won't, though. All I'm saying is that he should expect to get laughed at for how he talks since he chose the career he did.
