New NC House Speaker Thom Tillis has been a little harder to interview than his Senate counterpart in the run-up to the new session of the General Assembly. That is, until he met with reporters on Opening Day for a Q&A session that covered everything from new House rules and Dem support to term limits and the size of his gavel.

The link at left is the raw audio from that press conference. It's about 20 minutes long.  But if you're looking for insight into Tillis's personality, it's definitely worth a listen.
