Great interview. Interesting questions that actually engage Dexter and Noodles and as a result get interesting answers.

This interviewer is awesome! I’ve seen a few of his interviews now. He actually listens and is very polite and also, asks good questions.
Really good.
I mean I haven’t listened to Offspring in a good 10-15 years 😂😂, but still watching.
