    You absolutely killed this interview my guy! Very well spoken & the questions were spot on, really seeing you take over very soon. As far as Mitch goes this interview just made me realize instantly why Lamar & Abel welcomed him into their circle genuinely seems like a down to earth guy that believed in his craft and in return everything came back in full circle. Once again great job and best interview as of now (been watching for a min).
