Welcome to the Atlantic interview. I'm Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor-in-chief of the Atlantic and with me is former Atlantic intern and current chairman and CEO of HBO Richard

Klepler intern is that fair? No no no I was an intern but you were a low level

wrong wrong wrong I had my own very tiny consultant

How many employees did this consultant see had one employee that was me but I called it R.L.P. International because you had a passport. I thought big.

Richard so we're going to do a lot of stuff here in the next little period but let's start with with something that I need to just

need you just do it's ten years since sprano's went off the air what happened at the last

scene just tell us now.

No, you have inside.

No, look, I'll tell you what I said to David Chase,

but I can only tell you...

By the way, to our millennial listeners,

The Sopranos was a very popular television show on the HBO

network.

It worked for us.

So I thought what the deumma really was saying was pretty simple. You reap what you sell and his

penance was a life of eternal vigilance, that he would never, ever again be able to move around with impunity.

Focus on the good times.

Don't be so casting.

Isn't that what you said one time?

You try and remember the times that were good?

I did?

Yeah.
