Great Experts, Bad Host
Experts are excellent; very knowledgeable and generally well-spoken. The host interrupts a LOT and is at times quite rude. He often explains things for the experts rather than letting them talk (which would be fine for time-management if he wasn’t interrupting them to do it), and he sometimes becomes combative about smaller issues…which would be fine if he wasn’t rude and if he let his guests defend their word choice. It’s a great idea but it needs a different moderator.

This series of programmes is an extraordinarily rich heritage. It's erudite, learned and endlessly fascinating. Love it, love it, love it. Why hasn't Melvin been knighted yet?Read full review »

I’m always interested in the topics, but every time I put on an episode, I’m put off by how rude Melvin is to his guests. He interrupts and snarks at his guests in a way that keeps me from listening to all of these. It’s disappointing.
