A story about Truong's incredible work ethic and productivity, as told by Sam Parr.
"One time I called him at 11 o'clock his time - he's in Vancouver - and he was at the park playing with his son. I was like, 'Truong, I'm not trying to get on you because I'm not your boss, but don't you have work to do?'
He was like, 'Bro, I got up at 5 AM and I already wrote tomorrow's email.' I was like, 'Alright, sounds good.'"
