I agree with this take mostly. There are many times I expect Lex to guide his guest to a particular conversation and he fails to do it. Rogan is better at this, to my surprise. Though Rogan has his bad days too, but generally he's better at it. I admit though, I am not an avid listener of either shows. I think a lot of this comes down to personal preference. The beginning of Lex's shows make me cringe sometimes.
