Enjoyed Avengers special

Malkin is a good host I enjoy his interviews and can’t wait for more!

Host needs to step up his game

Granted, I’ve only listened to the Tim McGraw / Faith Hill interview because I LOVED 1883.

The host does not listen well, asking Tim repeatedly about Season 2 and about Broadway, after Tim has already answered the questions. Tim was very nice about it, but I lost patience. And then the host obnoxiously fixates on how badly they must have smelled while shooting the show, with both of them.

I crave depth. If you’re gonna keep it light, like Graham Norton, then be funny. This host did neither. And makes me never want to listen to another one of his interviews.

If you want to hear an ace professional interviewer who’s also very human and strikes a compelling rhythm with his guests, check out THR’s Scott Feinberg. He is world class.

The only reason I’m giving this 2 stars is because of the quality of guests.

Not a NYer ,

Does the host...

...ever not mention his husband? LOL

Seriously, though, this competent celebrity journalism. If I’m interested in the guest I tune in.
