Well, it has been a few years, and it's a very long interview, so I hope you understand I'm not going to be very specific.
These are the things that I came away with after watching it, to the best of my recollection:
- Cenks inability to be charitable towards his guest
- Cenks inability to let his guest make a point without challenging it repeatedly, and please note the that the word "repeatedly" is key
- Cenks way of deflecting analysis of an apple by saying "but what about this orange?!"
- Sams amazing patience and calm
Anyway, that's how I remember feeling after having watched it years ago. And I've never watched Cenk before or after that interview, so I have no other points of reference for his character or abilities as an interviewer.
I'm not going to go watch it again, so there's nothing to discuss here - it just amazes me that anyone would want to be interviewed by Cenk, considering how negatively I viewed his interaction with Sam.
So, I guess I should not have engaged you at all, because I have nothing to discuss, and no factual arguments to make.
I would delete my first comment if I could, but I can't.
I remember finishing that interview thinking that Cenk was the most intellectually dishonest host I had seen in a long time. Sam's patience from beginning to end was extremely impressive.
