I think the two points that seemed different than your previous interviews:

1. The story about your wife's WP hosting was a bit long. It seemed like you were trying to sell the purpose of Mr. Cohen's service but the story was a bit long-winded.

2. I liked that you summarized the video at the start of the interview - but you should do the summary before your interviewee is on-screen. As soon as his face hits the screen I want to hear him talk...

Other than that, I enjoyed it!

Good point about my story of Olivia's experience. I think I was excited because it happened recently, and I might have been trying to win him over -- which is odd because I don't need to do that.

Glad you said that about the summary. I've been thinking about the comments and assuming the summary is what everyone was talking about.

I wouldn't worry too much about the length of the story - it's probably just an outlier that comes with your style of interviewing.
