Customer Reviews
Sunday sit down with Willie Giest
Watching Willie on Sunday is now a must with us. Willie is a great interviewer. We are used to seeing him on Morning Joe. Someday I can see him replacing Joe and MSNBC can rename the show ‘Morning Willie’.
Ugh. I’ma NOT listen
The too-cool-for-school ads and the precious way he says “for frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrree” are so bad it’s a major turn-off. I won’t listen on principle. Plus there’s that whoa-oh-so-clever variation on “wherever you get your podcasts.” At least for some of us, all that cleverness has the opposite effect!

Great interview. Such a decent human being.
