No, the complain is that he basically doesn't understand what his guests are telling him so rather than asking a followup question or transition smoothly he just jumps around from question to question. Just listen for your self, it's obvious.
I don’t think it’s obvious. An alternative explanation is that he does understand and doesn’t feel the need to ask a follow up because he think the next question is more valuable to ask. My sense of him is that he is deliberately trying not to do a linear technical interview and is trying to get people out of the standard pattern so you get a feel for their humanity as well as their technical mastery.
It would be easy to know what you are complaining about if you just provided an example. An episode number and time index would do.
The Jim Keller interview is a wonderful example, listen to the first one. I don't want to re-listen to pull out specific time codes. The first time I listened I was actually interested, I wasn't listening with intent to create time coded indictment of Lex. If you are regular listener and you like his show, I doubt you would ever agree with my take even if I offered you all the proof in the world, because ultimately it's subjective. I say he remains silent and switches topics because he is dumb, but clever enough to be a good bullshit artist. You want to give them the benefit of the doubt.
That's just what I had a moment to find right now and it was well labeled and I remembered that moment. As for your other comments, my only possible response would be insulting, and I have no desire to insult you.
