For 2 its not like he had a choice to do it in person...

  Right. Only other scenario that would work is for Joe to fly over there... which probably wouldn't happen. Regardless, Joe's getting so many good interviews in the past two years.

      Different circumstances: Snowden's location is well-known, he's protected via political asylum. El Chapo on the other hand was being hunted by the local government so he was dependent on his location remaining secret.

    John Oliver from Last Week Tonight did fly over to interview Edward Snowden[0]. But considering the worries their team went through, it's fair others decide to not do it. [0]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEVlyP4_11M https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEVlyP4_11M

OTA with John Anthony West ..
jimmydddd 7y ago
He insists on guests being in studio. He did a remote with John Anthony West (controversial Egypt scholar) making an exception because he was very ill at the time.

I watched his interview with Sean Carroll the other day and they touched on this. Joe said he vastly prefers face-to-face, and only really does OTA interviews when the person can't actually come to his studio.

I think he has mentioned that early episodes were with people not in same room.
