"I might, you know, start balling like..." "You can have, like, a Barbara Walters special or something like that." "Is that what you're trying to do?" "Man, what..." "Where is this coming from?" "Look, man, if your mom died, would you want to talk about it on some indie pop radio show?" "Hmm?" "Do you realize that I'm just trying to help you promote yourself?" "I have no idea, actually, what the fuck you're trying to do." "I'm just trying to promote your music." "Well, guys, uhh, that's the end of the interview."
