Typically, we talk on the phone for an hour or so, bounce ideas of each other, hang up, and then I spend a week or more figuring out how in the hell I can live up to Steve’s expectations. Like everyone else in the industry, I look way up to Steve and have always been mesmerized by his incredible talent and foresight.
