Some people make for great guests but mediocre (at best) hosts. I’d count Laura Ingraham and Mark Levin among them. They’re fine in ten-minute increments when they’re discussing an issue from their own perspective, but they simply don’t have the broad appeal or entertainment value to fill hours of air time.

I love Steyn, but not only as a voice. He is a tremendous interviewer. I have watched his interviews on utube and they are great. He is well versed in the subject, and does one thing many interviewers do not do well. He knows when to keep quiet, or insert a phrase or two to keep his subject talking. And when he responds, it is to draw the interviewee out. If you haven’t had a chance, watch him,

He would be great in a weekly show that included names-of-the-day-in-the-news being interviewed for a half hour to 45 before or after Steyn does his own monolog on current events.
