The conversation didn’t go long enough, IMO. Interesting and enlightening conversation all around, with good chemistry too.
That comment from Bryan about editing making him a better writer is especially telling.
Congrats on episode 99 and even 100 next week. Thanks for your friendship, support, and the opportunity to work with you. It’s a pleasure. And congrats again on all the musical and podcasting success, in particular, the Hugo nom, Patrick. It’s well deserved.
