It's a solo show this week!  "Community" favorite Leonard stars as MCNULTY. A bothersome little man with a fantastic watch.  I talk about Will Smith Slapping Chris Rock and dive deep into this somewhat cliche` episode Starring Richard Erdman.  there was a slight technical issue that starts at about 6 minutes in and ends around 16 minutes after that ( 21 minute mark)
