Charlie's guests these days are spinning like tops. Ted Turner was a breath of fresh air. Everything he said was right on the mark.
I really enjoyed this. Ted Turner is a really fascinating person, and as much as he's talked about, it is great to hear his attitude about his involvement in so many different areas. He has such a strong presence, I think it's almost impossible to refrain completely from interrupting him.
It's time for Charlie to step aside and let others do the interview. Mr. Turner had to remind Mr. Rose to not interrupt him. Increasingly, Charlie steps on his guests and doesn't let them finish their thoughts. Instead of trying to provoke his guests, he should hear them out. Very irritating...
Great show really got me thinking. I never liked Ted Turner before I saw your show. I like him now. I wish I could give him an idea to solar panel his million acres of desert using prisoners to work in a factory on site. I'm not sure how to go about it but if Ted gets this idea he could make it work. I'm glad somebody is fighting to save the world.
A riveting, funny, memorable interview with one of the most visionary, charismatic, witty, original,genial,generous,entertaining 20th Century Americans: Ted Turner. There is no one like him. I could watch and listen to him for hours.
First time seen this particular interview with Ted Turner, Charlie, was your best interview ever!!!
