Yes. What happened here was I, first of all, I was advised not to take any interviews. They were like, these are all going to be hit jobs. So I was like, no, I'm going to do it. I knew they would still be hit jobs, but I thought they could be slightly better hit jobs. And it was actually Irin Carmen of New York Magazine. And that was a rough interview.

Like I knew this is the one, there's a picture of me with the two dogs. But at the very end, she just said, look, I just don't get it. If everybody hates you so much, why don't you just leave Yale? And that had the opposite effect on me. You know, I just like this thing went off in my head and I was like, never. And I'm not going to be pushed out.

Yeah. So first of all, I just love your institution. I think about it all the time. And I get it. And I feel that way. It's not so much the institution as, and this is going to sound so hokey, especially with these, I've just described students anonymously reporting and all this stuff. But there is a vast number of students there that are just incredibly interesting, much brilliant, fascinating.

I think you're young and you're a builder, that's where you are. For me, I think, I don't think I'm actually, I shouldn't have really been a lawyer, you know? What should you have been?
