Re: Gold\'s radio interview
[ QUOTE ]
I just listened to part of Jamie Gold's interview on bigpoker.ca [/ QUOTE ] Wow could they kiss his ass harder in this interview? I've never actually listened to this show before FWIW. I don't really know much about journalism and doing interviews and stuff but I don't know how the guys who are doing this interview just go "WOW SHUT THE [censored] UP YOU [censored] LIAR". I guess you need to be gigantic ass kissers to get future guests and just ask softball questions?

There's the Mike Wallace "explain to the American people why we shouldn't hang, draw, and quarter you, Mr Lay" interview. And there's the Jay Leno "tell me about your hobbies in retirement, Ken" interview. Oddly enough, people will happily talk to Leno, while many folks are a little hesitant to sit down with Wallace. I rather like that they just let Gold babble on. Fun stuff. If they'd shut him down, we wouldn't have had this entertaining thread, for instance.

Re: Gold\'s radio interview
Curious. Did Busto follow through with his bet? Doubt it but I just figured I'd ask.

[img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]) The Rounders guys (Mike Johnson and Adam Schwartz) generally don't ask difficult questions of their guests, but they're hardly gutless sycophants. E.g., two shows back they had WSOP Commish Jeffrey Pollack on and did force him to respond to some of the players' concerns that had come up during this yr's event. Pollack answered in PR-speak, of course, but they acknowledged afterwards that he did . . . . Fossilman'll tell ya (he's been on) -- the Rounders guys are as good as any others as far as poker podcasts go. Getting Gold was a coup for 'em, that's for sure (the main reason for their enthusiasm, I'd venture).
