This guy is probably one of the last “industry” celebs I actually like to take advice from. His audiobook was truly something amazing. Aside from it being written and presented like a movie, he really seems like he is a real dude who’s been through some shit and made it out.

Gives his guests plenty of room to allow them to speak. Follows up with questions that clearly shows he was listening, and responding to the direction of the conversation, rather than just firing off a pre planned list. The barn set look fantastic. 4k. McConaughey gifts us with so much gold here. Two men that are masters of their craft. Love this. I appreciate you both.
