Terry Gross

Congratulations on the 15th anniversary.

I'm delighted to have you here.

I love that song.

I think it's a great opening to the show.

I'm wondering, since it's all about two missionaries training to go door to door, did you have people coming to your door when you were growing up who were Mormons trying to convert you?

Did you ever let them in?

Did you try to convert them?

And Josh, what about you?

How have your voices changed in the past 15 years?

You've sung a lot.

You've done a lot.

You're older.

Well, you don't know how to, is that a compliment or an insult?

You mean like you can't sing as much as long?

When you first read the book for the Book of Mormon and then heard the songs, what was your reaction?

Because depending on who you are, it's hilarious or incredibly offensive.

So, you know, with Hasadiga Ibuwe, it's like Hakuna Matata from The Lion King.

And, you know, a general in Uganda sings it.

And he's saying, you know, like, when things are really bad, there's famine, there's war.

Everybody has AIDS.
