One example: the Rand Fishkin interview. Definitely not accusing Rand of weaseling, but that moment where Andrew asks "What are you feeling right now?" cut through to the honesty of running a business. And huge kudos to Rand for being so honest about burnout on camera.
Another example might be where Steve Blank called out Andrew during the interview, and they kept that in the podcast. There's something really honest & genuine about leaving that moment in.
Mixergy has improved so much over the years. Really shows the value of practice & persistence. Congratulations on the 1000, Andrew.
I've found him to be honest and sometimes cutting with his interviews.
Anytime someone is bullshitting or using weasel words he tends to call them out, if not directly then at least making them squirm.
Maybe you started listening before I did but I feel like I've listened to almost all of them.
Also +1 on Russ Roberts being a great host, I just wish there were more episodes with Mike Munger.
