> Lex knows how to dig deeper into a conversation and bring more substance out.

I've seen the opposite - he seems to care a lot more about saying his own things instead of listening to the guests, and a lot of the time he just follows his list of questions instead of talking to them.

Lex has like 3 or 4 canned questions he asks his guests and reiterates the things he learned in his own words. This is on a show run by a single person driven by authentic curiosity for an average of 2.5 hours/episode like 3 times a week.
