Cool to see this, Paul.

I started watching but at over 41 minutes I'll watch the rest after dinner.

I wish you could have gotten the interviewer to stop saying RickenBOCKer.

I enjoyed it. For a while, I wondered what was 'different' about Paul. It was because he wasn't wearing the hat we see in his avatar. The photography in the book is just fantastic. Happy to own it. As discussed during the interview, there are so many facts and nuances to absorb. It took several passes through the book to work through all the models and their unique details.

Thanks guys. Yeah, Raul pronounced it "bock" instead of "back." But I didn't want to correct him "on air," and look like a know-it-all. Well, I guess I AM a know-it-all, but even I find myself using "bock" in my inner dialog sometimes. And even if I know it all, I still make mistakes. I got them wrong when I was trying to explain the confusing progression of the 2000 series models. At least I have it right in the book.

Great interview Paul! I got the impression the interviewer was not a Rickenbacker fan.

I wasn’t crazy about the guy conducting the interview either, but he did allow Paul to speak without interruptions.

That's exactly the impression I got, too. I t must have been excruciating for Raul to sit through the interview with a smile on his face.
