Joe is perhaps the most empathetic and skilled host I’ve ever heard. He is a patient listener and his questions really bring out the best in his callers by elevating their stories. He also takes scammers and bigots to task using his sharp perception and critical questioning. Great man. I’ve picked up some of his conventions in my own conversations and I’m a better listener for it.
