QUOTES

08:20 "He tells stories about his childhood growing up in Jamaica because he lived with our grandparents when he was young. So he told stories. And when he came down and he sat back next to me, I'm like, how did you do that, Jason? He's like, Toastmasters."

09:33 "He definitely learned the technique of telling personal stories. Again, he just spoke warmly of his childhood and what it meant to him and what she meant to people in the community. And it felt like he was having a conversation with the audience."
