Questions to ask a Credit Trader

I have a phone call with a credit trader tomorrow. He's an alumni from my school and has 20+ years experience trading at different banks. I don't want to make a fool out of myself by asking dumb generic questions. However, credit trading and the bond market are not my strong suit.

Does anybody have any questions that would show I am genuinely interested and well read on credit trading?

Thanks in advance.
