There's such a genuine respect and admiration between Eric and the guest(s) and I respect that so much in a world where things like this could become stale or boring, Eric brings the exact opposite on every podcast or interview!

      1. Bend both elbows at your sides, palms up. I mean, I think you know how to shrug. Keep your arms close to your body tho, so you should look like a skinny W.
      2. Make a face that screams, “how could you not know that?” Eyebrows slanted, head juts forward a bit. Feel it. You are Kevin Moon and are SHOCKED that Eric forgot the word, “staff”.
      Hope that exercise has helped you learn what Kevin looks like when he shrugs as much as it has helped me learn how closely I pay attention to body language.
