  • Please let the guest do the speaking

    The guests are great but it drives me crazy hearing the compare do all the talking and putting words in their mouths. No one cares what you think. Please ask the question and then be silent so your guest can answer. The drone of the compare’s voice makes me turn off but I love the range of great guests.
