The way I spoke on stage changed almost overnight. I talk about how, and more, in this episode with Derek Loudermilk. He interviewed me on a book he’s writing, and I recorded it for my own records. The audio is lower quality, but if you can get past the typing sounds, I think you’ll be glad you listened to this one.
