So if I ask someone those 10 questions, they're going to like me >> probably. Yeah. More than if you didn't
00:00:05
ask the questions, you actually go back and forth and ask each other these questions. So the first one is, what are
00:00:11
you excited about lately? Next is, what is something you're good at but don't
00:00:13
like doing? What's something you're bad at but love to do? Is there something
00:00:17
you'd like to learn more about? Is there something you'd like to learn how to do?
00:00:20
What can we celebrate about you? Has someone made you laugh recently? What's
00:00:24
something cute your kid, friend, pet, or partner has been doing? Did you grow up

00:00:34

00:00:48
follow-up questions to really deepen the conversation and move up that topic pyramid. But the key is not just asking
00:00:54
that question, but actually asking follow-up questions about like, why do you connect with that show? What do you
00:00:58
see in the main character? Do you see anything from the main character that you see in yourself?
