Lex has very solid content, but I do somewhat agree with the parent commentor. His delivery and style has alot of room for improvement... that does matter for a podcast. I don't blame anyone for struggling to listen to a 2-3 hour podcast where some quirk about the host or the guest distracts you in some unrelated way.
Personally I really like Lex's interview style. He is clearly a very intelligent, thoughtful and compassionate person. He asks great questions, listens to the guest, and always has an upbeat personality. What more do you want? I personally am tired of interviewers that are way over the top like most comedians, pop scientists, etc. I hope he reads this keep it up dude.
I didn't say that it means you shouldn't listen. I just really don't like the interviewer's style and don't know why he's gotten the fame he has.
