That person's interviewing skills are atrocious and his pithy "love" schtick strains credulity given the way he handles criticism of him.

Yeah, but man does he get some great guests from time to time. Really enjoyed Travis Oliphant and Todd Howard in addition to the ones the parent listed.

I think it's a bit unfair. Overall, I'd say he's a decent interviewer and has interesting guests.

That being said, I find him pretentious, and get a bit tired of some recurring cliches and themes. I'd prefer if he would keep things a bit more "neutral". Also he invites occasionally some crackpots, which would be fine if he'd challenge them more, or invite another guest who can.

yeah, his questions and comments are quite often naive and cringe. But he has incredible guests, from all sorts of domains, and lets them talk for hours.

How's he handle criticism?

His "love schtick" is his best feature.
