“It appears to me that over the past decade or so there has been a trend for interviewers to pontificate during their question to their guest/interviewee. Often giving the appearance that they are trying to highlight themselves as opposed to the guest. I as a listener cannot get past this trend any longer. Mr. Adams who seems like a very nice and knowledgeable person is guilty of this so often that I cannot get past it.
Do your listeners a favor and posit an interesting, non self centric question and step back, get out of the way and let your guest run with it. You’ll find you and your listeners will have more opportunity to learn from the interview as opposed to the majority of the interviews being long winded, self important blathering.
Sincerely, I do wish you all the best. Good luck.”
