| 0:06.3 | Okay, before we begin the show as slick would say |
| 0:09.9 | Leave your ego at the door place. Oh that could have been 11 hours and I would have loved it. |
| 0:15.0 | I would have hung on every word the whole time. |
| 0:18.0 | It was awesome. I loved it. |
| 0:19.0 | The Greatest Night in Pop is a Netflix documentary about the recording of We Are the World. |
| 0:25.8 | Which I would think when I'm watching it that everybody would remember We Are the World |

| 1:14.9 | documentary. He was great. I loved his modesty. I don't know a better way to |
| 1:19.7 | articulate it. There was a humble thing about how nervous he was and how an awe he was of all these people. |
| 1:26.0 | He was a pretty big star at the time as you say. |
