The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

Q Wow. Jeff, you're the guy who's like, was persistent in pursuing current, never taking no for an answer. You're the guy that, and she was like, no, I'm not gonna marry you. I'm not gonna date you. And you're like, no, come on. You're the one who says, let's back, let's pack, pack this in?

A I, I was so discouraged by the lack of sales at that show, and Kern looked at me and said, no, when we get back to Dallas, you got to get on the phone and start making some calls to open up accounts. We have 450,000 dollars worth of inventory coming in in March and April. And we need to start selling that. So I thought, okay, you know, I've got a really strong database here. I, we, we did meet some people that seemed interested and, uh, found a couple independent reps and I started talking to those reps about carrying Jack Black. And then I just got on the phone and cold called all day, literally all day.
