Jones talks about how the show allows guests to talk about their craft, their process, their path, and their opinions in a relaxed environment while allowing enough time for in-depth conversation. Jones discusses why he decided to get into interviewing and the reason he shoots all of his interviews in black and white. He says the minimalistic approach peels away all the noise and cuts right to the heart of the conversation.
