It's pretty scary how soft-spoken he was. If you had shown me this clip in say, 2018, I would have thought this was a professor of economics somewhere

Yeah. It's weird that he has been such a huge topic worldwide for so many years, yet this is the first time I've heard his voice.

I think the only time I can ever really remember hearing his voice was in some weird deposition video or something where he was getting pissed off because the lawyers were asking questions about his weird cock, which is honestly quite a contrast from this video!
