One of the highlighted characteristic of this recording, is it is a live conversation, not something rehearsed.

So, while what you said may be true for radio broadcasts, I am not sure it is at play here even if the interviewee knows he is being recorded.

In 1912, the recording equipment would have been quite conspicuous.
