@rags: The glitch at 11:35 fortunately does not take away from the message, it was basically a time when we talked over each other before he got to the point he wanted to express.

@rags: Just before I was interviewed by Capital FM, I wrote to Derrick and asked him, since he was such a fantastic guest, if he had any words of advice for me. His advice was: have fun with it.
I am glad you could see that he followed his own advice. I had a blast doing this interview. As always rags, the tips are appreciated. I am shifting over to a new sound editor who will be doing all my podcast editing and you best believe almost all her notes will have their roots in rags advice.

I loved the interview. The jamaa is really inspiring. You did well, had dope swaliz and you made him comfortable enough to laugh genuinely and just express himself. On the the technical side of the podcast, I wanted to sema that there is a slight glitch 11mins 35secs into the interview.
