I think he was awesome.
This show is good - did you know Joey Bishop didn't drink or smoke?
and they said Sinatra spilled more than Dino drank.

| 4. Yeah, Dean Martin wasn't the party animal he was made out to be |
|
It was all part of the act.

| 7. After the Rat Pack show they did a special |
|
on Dino.
Interesting guy - his major vice was women, not alcohol, for decades. Late in life he took to drinking heavily.

they say one of the reasons Peter Lawford was "taken in" by Sinatra is because Sinatra wanted nothing more than for Kennedy to make him Ambassador to Italy.

KQED's doing one on Martin. It's talking about the Rat Pack right now.
