1. Brian's tone was very calm, yet comedical. He made jokes here and there but was sure to be serious about his job because he was working at a suicide hotline. Though I found the podcast very funny, his jokes were hilarious as he recalled his experiences in office, and I also like how he transitioned to serious, he is a really good storyteller. Brian made it very interesting to listen to the full talk.

2. I do believe in the policy, Its a bit grim to imagine but the thought that if someone doesn't want to be helped and you force that on them it leads to a cycle where if it's really what they want to do they are just going to do it again. You want to help everyone but sometimes you just can't. Even if you help that can lead them into a mental ward where they live out the rest of their life depressed, so it's best to let them go under their own control. Though like in his story with the girl Amy, you have people who realize that they don't want to after its too late, so those are the ones you want to help the ones who know they want to live, or who feel they made a mistake.

3. This podcast fit the interview aspect based on the dialogue Brian gives on his phone calls, and work interaction. I also believe this podcast was a great way of showing interesting conversation. I felt very interested in what he was saying, it didn't feel like he was just talking “at” me, it felt more fluid like he was telling me a story or almost having a conversation.
