But the verite of it all, which I live for, he's obviously a great character.
He's eccentric and all that sort of built in.
But I love the rough and readiness of him.
He goes to do his podcast and that gift where he doesn't know how to use the headphones and Al Hunt can't use the Zoom or the podcast thing.
And I mean, just like, it's that, that for me was great.
And I wanted his spilling, his pills and things like that.
I just didn't want to have perfection here.
I wanted to have the, the rough hewn.
James.
