I believe they mean someone with the charisma and depth to give great interviews with many interesting people but specifically in this case, people that code. Much of Joe's audience would tune out after a few minutes of coding discussion. So in this case, an interviewer that can pull in some of the top developers from around the world and be able to carry on interesting conversations with them that would draw in an audience of developers. ckvamme, please correct me if I am wrong.

>charisma and depth

Are we watching the same person? I like Rogan's interviews, but he draws out good content by being dopey and asking simple questions, not by being charismatic and deep.

What you describe matches some of his interviews. It really varies by topic, how much he is personally interested in it and how much research he has done. Some of the dopey persona is an act to put himself a few rungs lower than the guest and it seems to work most of the time.
