I had never heard of this person until this post. Would you care to expand a bit on "I don't really like anything about him"? I checked out his Wikipedia entry

  People find him boring. His style turned me off in the beginning, but now it’s just kinda become his shtick. My girlfriend makes fun of him cause she thinks he sounds like a robot trying to understand the human experience. He asks a lot of cheesy questions about love and our purpose in life. But in all honesty, it’s refreshing to see an interviewer ask the CEO of Pfizer what the meaning of life is.

    > His style turned me off in the beginning, but now it’s just kinda become his shtick. I started listening last year and I too was initially put off by his "broadcast" (sorry, ex-radio bod here) style, but I've come to appreciate it because there's no shouting and getting all excitable.

  I believe that should have been phrased very differently, my mistake. What I meant is that I can easily imagine a better interviewer. He is a bit dull and uses the word "love" too much for my taste, but that's about it, to be honest. Compared to many other podcasters/minor celebrities, this is really nothing serious, just personal preference. I believe he is a genuinely nice person who wants everyone to be happy to a fault.
