lin: 2002.ut i knew he was the right fit for "hamilton," because he was saying all the right things. charlie: saying all the right things? lin: one, tommy grew up in virginia. tommy grew up in the part of the country i don't know. and is also well represented in the show. his mother is a historical architect. he comes by all that as honestly as he came by all the things in "the heights." that is also with him. he heard the second song i wrote for the show and said you could be writing this a lot faster. he said, it is great that you are taking your time, but a song a year is not a great output. charlie: we will be here a while. lin: we just started plotting. that day, i think, started plotting. what are we going to work towards? to lin's credit, and when the thing happened at the white house, it did not exist. there was no video of it. i remember lin saying a film that. it went really well. i wonder if-it will see the light of day. then they decided to put out this youtube on whitehouse.gov. lin

into: lin wrote himself snobby and out of burr. lin: this guy is getting pretty singy. [laughter] tommy: you know your skill set. lynn has said this many times. there is a little of every character in lin and there is a lot of lin in all these characters. the hamilton part of lin understands going after something with focus and determination and blinders. the part of lin that also wants to make sure it is the right moment is the burr part of lin. he writes them both with equal compassion. what leslie provides in this show is the other temperature of lin's hamilton and hamilton, the character. part of the conversation we were having in the show is the show has to be about hamilton, not lin playing hamilton. lin's generosity of spirit is like a good host. he makes sure everyone has eaten before he is. i will eat in a minute. here is something for you, george washington. everyone else gets theirs and the last thing that gets written is the dual. there is a reason for that and it is that spirit of generosity. lin: i'm a good host.
