Maybe we should talk about the elephant.
Recruiter:
Elephant?
Brad Cohen:

Recruiter:

Brad Cohen:
I know, but I'd like to tell you just like I tell the kids in my classes. See, I explain to them that it's a brain thing that causes me to make strange noises, they're like sneezes, irrepressible. When you have to, you have to.
Recruiter:

Brad Cohen:
