Must have been only 1 question.

What's funny is the first thing he says is that he wasn't sure he could keep it short enough for them so he was unsure if he should say yes. And then he sets a clock to make sure he stays on time

Buzz is the complete opposite of Jimbo when delivering a message/speech/interview.

Lots of pauses like he wants every word to fit perfectly into his message.

Conversely, Jimbo would just ramble 100 MPH and you had to pay attention just to try and keep up with what he was trying to say.

So….Jimbo's just gotta execute better?

Buzz did a great job. He made his points concisely and it was well presented and real word, very practical advice.

I like his speech. I like the content and the way he presents it.
I went to a graduation today where the speaker had one tone of voice, one tempo, and 0 interaction with the crowd. She went on for way too long, and I don't believe she had anyone following what she was saying.

It is important for the entitled to hear those words.
