I normally watch on youtube and the production is slightly different but both variations are incredible.
Chris has become the best podcast interviewer that I've ever seen, it's awesome to see the progression from his first podcast to now. Knowing when to speak and when not to is so hard with some guests and he seems to have mastered it.

The variety of information is engaging, interesting, and informative. This podcast always leaves me with notes to ponder.

Thanks Chris! Keep up the good work!
