As for the questions that Dr. Conner should ask, reference past recent interviews I have been asked by the media at large, this is a different interface since it will be video format, so that being said those questions have relevancy, simply in video format I have not been asked those questions, further what trends most on social media is video.

This program now reflects the past press questions that Joe W. Conner, PhD, will ask.

Other than that I am as prepared as I can be.
