What Now? with Trevor Noah
Meet Derek Fordjour – One of My Favorite People

How do you know when something's finished? I think there's a creeping feeling that you get where you're like, I'm not making this better. You know, it's kind of like when you're in a barber's chair, like the longer you're there, this guy can only remove hair. Do you know what I'm saying? Yeah, I know exactly what you're saying. You shouldn't be there too long.

You know, it's enough. Leave it.
