The Boss centers on the relationship between Michael Regan, an Irish-American businessman, and Emily Griswold, an outspoken American girl bent on saving her father's business.

Reviews
An unfortunate amount of work
Avid Listener
This is clearly an orchestration of work. Very well executed. Unfortunately it is poorly conceived. I would rather not even comment except to save someone their precious 5 minutes of time arriving at the same conclusion as I did. I imagine this to be a regret to all involved; good effort.
