There's a feeling that goes to it.

Really simplifying things.

I mean, one of the things that PG is really good at, if you read his writing and stuff, is just like very simple language.

You won't read like a PG sentence when you're like, what is that word?

I don't understand.

He's like, very simple.

It's easy to understand.

My favorite PG moment from that period was one of my friends had in the batch did a presentation and PG was like, this is terrible.

This is not good.

And he rewrote the whole thing for me.

He's like, you should say this, this, and this.

And, like, he just said all the things, and my friend just took down perfect notes.

Probably does, like, you pitch for two minutes, then he gives you, like, 10 minutes of feedback, and then the next group comes.

And he just does that over and over again all day.

So there's a cue.

So if you pitch and you want to do it again to come back and try again, you've got to wait, like, three hours for your turn.

So, like, three or four hours go by, and my friend goes back up and presents the –

the pitch.

And he says exactly word for word, everything that PG told him to say.

And then PG was like, that's perfect.
