  • One of the best A++++

    Excellent guests, excellent subject matter, excellent questions. A+++ BUT - please do your best not to interrupt your guests. It really kills the flow of ideas. Let them finish what they are saying without barging in - and sorry but it is often with little added value. Your questions are great but your interjections are really annoying.
