Thaks for posting this. Real nice of Tavis to talk about the human side of him. The JW story was comical.

Its wonderful hearing about the prince we knew he was . He kept himself so grounded even though he became so well known and respected and revered in his industry. He did so much good that we never knew about that is now coming to light. His busy days were filled with helping others and learning and teaching.

I'd love to know about the convo with Tavis over michael jackson. He must have been very analytical that night with his own life .Knowing they were similar in many ways not just their age. He cared about michael I believe. Like the protective older brother in a way.Even if it was a few months between them lol
