multiple of reasons and we didn't really have a fixed narrative of what this interview is going to be.

0:15.1

But oh, it's great because part of the reason why I think you'll enjoy this episode is because it lets you relive

about his history and the feats he'd achieved um you know following his is sad um passing away

1:52.0

last month or two months ago um i thought oh i'd love to be able to tell more about josh so i then

1:58.4

reached out to richard and then it occurred to me that why have we not spoken to Richard for any point in this last, what, 12 years or so, given that
