First snow flakes falling in Central Park. Scattered roses and lilacs still blooming. A northern cardinal settles into a hedgerow.

It’s that time of year when we cheer on complete strangers. And I love it.

Great listen or read on the art of the interview — and why a good conversation is like a tennis match.
Transcript here: https://www.ted.com/podcasts/ted.com/podcasts/the-art-of-the-interview-with-andrew-ross-sorkin-transcript Adam Grant: You introduced me last year to what has become my favorite metaphor for an interview that becomes a great conversation. You said it is like a tennis match. Talk to me about that and, and how you landed at this metaphor. Andrew Ross Sorkin: So first of all, I love tennis and I love watching a long rally. Just watched the US Open. And you know, people always say to me, who are you rooting for? And I always say, l'm rooting for a long, long match. That's what I want. And I think that's what everybody wants. And to me a great conversation is that. You, you don't really wanna see one person acing the other person over and over again. There's very little to learn from it. It's not particularly entertaining. There's just no excitement about it. And by the way, that doesn't mean you're not gonna hit the ball hard. It just means that two things, you actually want the other person to return the ball. Like, it's important that the other person can return the ball, and sometimes you'll place the ball in the corner to see if they can run. And by the way, sometimes they're gonna place the ball in the corner to see if you can run, but it just makes for a much more interesting dialogue.

I’d listen to a special TechTonics reboot episode with Pfeffer on this. Would pay for the Blue Bottle coffee to power the recording.

Which reminds me a little of the beautiful yarn art decorating wire fences and empty spaces in East Harlem.
