I was so petrified. I did it when I was selling fax machines door-to-door. And I have this thing where if something terrifies me or if I think I would never do that and the answer is because I'm scared, it kind of becomes something I really want to try to do. And that was one of those things. And I just did open mic mostly around.

The whole back section could be asleep or on their phone, and you still ramble on.
