Yeah.

I did a talk in Canary Wharf a couple of weeks, maybe a year ago, and a kid stood up in the front row.

You've got to bear in mind there's 500 young, when I say young, I mean probably 21.

They're all working in this part of London called Canary Wharf where you kind of, your first job after university.

500 people in this room, kid stands up front row, says, Hi, my question is, I...

want to know how to make friends.

And it was shocking to me because I could see 499 of his peers stood next to him.

But he had the guts to stand up in front of all these people and say, hi, Stephen, my question is, how do you make friends?

If he had asked you that question, he might be listening now.

God, we don't do that in the UK.

It's like creepy behavior.

What are these here?

This list of questions here.

Oh, I heard about that.

Yeah, Arthur Aaron.

So if I ask someone those 10 questions, they're going to like me?

I did that when I was younger to a girl I was interested in.

I'd seen that TED talk about the 36 questions or whatever.

And I said to her over text message, I was like, I want to play a game with you.

Something that I've just watched.
