“He (Sebastian) also had an innate ability to gauge the person he was speaking to and to adjust his commentary accordingly. For instance, if he was talking to an individual who took their religion very, very seriously, he was always respectful of how far he could push that envelope. The same was true with political back-and-forths; Sebastian knew there was only so far he could go with a differing opinion before the other party would get offended enough to shut down.”
