We had this conversation a lot in the early days of the financial crisis going on now 20 years ago. matched

Because the news, much as it is today, was really, really grim. matched

And it was economically and financially scary. matched

And our conversation was, what's our job? matched

Is our job to make people feel better? matched

Or is our job to help them understand what's happening and then they can process it how they want? matched

And we came down on, we have to help them understand this, right? matched

And we can't sugarcoat it. matched

So let's address the anxiety. matched

Let's address the fact that these are scary, scary times. matched

And then go from there with them having the information. matched

I had done about probably 10 years ago now, an interview with the CEO of Marriott. matched

I went to New York, went to breakfast with him in a Marriott hotel and we had a great conversation and it was really good. matched

Anyway, early in COVID, I discovered that he had been diagnosed with stage four cancer of some variety or other. matched

And it was like terminal and he knew that. matched

And so we got him back on the show because he hadn't stepped down yet, but he was clearly dying. matched

And we did it on video actually. matched

And he looked like a stage four cancer guy. matched

And we had a whole conversation. matched
