Staggeringly honest interview .
There isn't one quote we could pick out of this interview to do it justice. If there is one interview you watch today, make it this one with @matmohoric. On n'a pas su choisir une seule citation qui rendrait hommage Γ l'interview. Du coup si vous devez Γ©coutez un seul interview
