I know I tend to use many superlatives, but I’m sorry to tell you that this now stands as the best interview (and at some points lecture, characteristically, for better or worse) I have ever done. an ENORMOUS thank you to
Best of the best.

Act I





more!
I read an interview from you in college that stuck with me forever. Sorry if it is painful to revisit but you were discussing suicidal struggles. I think you mentioned some crazy statistic where cancer survivors who also experienced this said they'd rather go through cancer again. Maybe something like that. But you also described fighting for your life after being in such a low place that really inspired me in my own similar struggles. I think I tried to shout this out to you in passing when you were touring in town but it came out like "hey thanks for everything I'm bipolar too!!!" while you were already surrounded by fans haha
