"The part that pulls on your strings as a human is the stories and as far as I know, AI has not had its heart broken yet or just the stuff you go through when you're growing up."
"And it's always fun when you meet someone who listens to all of your episodes, because they kind of know you, or at least feel like they do, and you have no idea who this person is."
"It's super creative, there are no rules, you can do whatever you want. And then the fact that I get to help people, it just scratched every itch I have."
