If a decent amount of the interview asynchronously via some questionnaires over email, it will give you some more time to gather your thoughts and get outside feedback. This could take some of the pressure off the synchronous parts.
Come time to talk face-to-face, I’d say that if they can genuinely teach you something, they’ve shown a lot of technical and interpersonal skills, so maybe try to set them up with something to teach you.
I wish we had some time to async-ify our process, but when one finds solid candidates, it's in your best interest to move forward whether I feel like I'm ready or not.
This will be the 2nd interview, so it's always possible to come better prepared for the next one and hit on anything I may have missed. I think this process will make a fine blog post when I'm done =)
Cheers!

Anyway, those are my first couple thoughts.
Ben, thanks for your help.
