I’ve started watching Moyers & Company on PBS on Friday nights. Somehow Bill Moyers finds the most interesting mix of people as guests. I tuned in to catch the excellent Kathleen Hall Jamieson comment on the Republican primaries, and was hooked. This is more than political conversation. I’ve met everyone from poet Christian Wiman to former Disney executive turned media specialist, Marty Kaplan. Although Bill is always friendly with his guests, he doesn’t hesitate to challenge them on their opinions. I have a tendency of turning it on thinking I’ll just listen passively, but I’m always provoked about my own thoughts on the evening’s topic by the end of the hour.
If you like in-depth, intelligent and civil discussion, this show’s for you. Enjoy!
