Sneak Peek: Larry King on The Hour

Make sure you tune into The Hour on Thursday, May 28th for George's interview with broadcast legend Larry King. I was in the studio when they pretaped this interview last Friday when King was in town to promote his new biography, and I have to say that I think this is one of George's best interviews.

A few stills from the interview:
