This interview is a little bit different and it surprised me because I've got a

0:05.0

full-time booker and a producer and they do a lot of hunting trying to find the

0:11.0

perfect guess for the show people who have a unique view on sales people that

0:17.4

will add to the audience to give you a different perspective. Now a lot of you
