Awesome video. I also listened to The Art of Charm Podcast, the episode with Jessica Tracy and I found it very interesting.

Nice, it was really an interesting talk. She is pretty confident in her topic/ subject.

This interviewer...asks the question, stares, nods, asks next question. Yikes. Also it amazes me how people that work in google don’t know how to use a microphone. Is everyone this socially awkward at Google?
