malcolm gladwell is the host of Revisionist History, a podcast about things overlooked and misunderstood. In this episode he tries to teach his neighbour how to say hotpa in Hebrew. He also finds out that an old school guy from new york drops a lot of f bombs - just so you're aware. And there are actually two versions of hootzpa: American and Israeli.
You thought that there was only one kind of chutzpah. Wrong. There’s two. Revisionist History tells the story of the Mafia’s showdown with a legendary Hollywood producer, in a battle of competing chutzpahs.
