Excerpt from a YouTube interview ("Books That Changed My Life: Nadine Crocker & Never Finished Pt. 2") in which Speaker A describes bold personal goals (saying they expect to win an Oscar within five years) and outlines a prospective acceptance speech addressing loneliness and recovery: they recount moving from suicidal depression to some of their happiest memories and urge listeners to "give it one more day." The exchange is emotional and candid; Speaker B prompts and reacts.
