I was arriving home or starting to teach classes angry and upset after listening to her....and it wasn't that the topics hit a nerve, it was like I'd spent 30 minutes watching someone torture puppies. I started out liking her and really grew to find her contemptible.
Now I listen to Flamenco CD’s if I need excitement :)
I just don't like hosts, radio or otherwise, who give callers all of 5 seconds before jumping in. It must be a difficult balance for radio and TV hosts. They've got to be more talkative than the average person or there's no show. But the good ones also know when to shut up.
Another person who makes me crazy is Charlie Rose. He's a lousy interviewer, and he never fails to interrupt his guests at the worst moment.
