Right exactly. I'd rather have him ask a longwinded question where he relates it to himself than constantly interrupt like Nore and so many others do. He'll ask a 45 second question then give them however long they need to answer without any interruption at all. I'm good with that.

And like you touched on, his anecdotes are worthy of mention most of the time especially when he's coming at it as a fan (the story about how he basically stalked Common for the Respiration collab comes to mind lol), and they add levity to the guests' stories. And frankly as a veteran of the game with some well-respected, undeniable classics under his belt, he deserves to flex on his own podcast lol.
