While I do greatly prefer the long-form discussion shows over the short edited segments on network tv, what I'd really love to see become popular, in general, but especially in politics, is super-long-form, unedited discussion in text, like a days-long email thread style. Everyone gets time to express their points and counterpoints as clearly as possible with fewer emotional overtones. It's far too easy for bad-faith actors to pummel good-faith actors with charisma, bullying, gottchas, etc. that are hard to recover from on the spot even if you have a better chunk of time than you'd get in a drive-by argument. These two people could do this right now and easily publish anywhere, then Joe could discuss it on his show if he wanted to bring attention to it and even bring them on to discuss the discussion live. But I'm willing to bet one of them would never agree to that format. Or they'd agree and derail the conversation completely as soon it started to become clear they're convincingly getting called out.
