  • Please let your interviewees speak!!

    He’s got some really great guests but he insists on instead of asking questions, giving great long sermons and then the interviewee has little space to answer. I find his own opinions fairly uninteresting so it’s a shame he doesn’t give his interviewees more time. Have stopped listening for this reason, it’s too boring fast forwarding all Ivan’s long opinion pieces.
