Non-interrupting, talking over, etc. was very refreshing. I haven’t seen a calm, logical discussion in …. forever. As soon as someone starts interrupting or talking over the other, I turn it off. I am so glad to have found Jeff through substack comments. This is what true leadership looks like.

Was the first ATL interview you've watched? Jan Jekielek is THE BEST interviewer which after years of watching him means I cannot tolerate anyone else!

Agree! These Epoch Times American Thought Leaders interviews are the best!

Yes, Jan is among the best ever. A must-watch is his conversation with Governor DeSantis.

Ah, it needs a subscription. Looks like it’s a dollar and then after 2 months it’s $9.99/mo autocharge.

I did the dollar subscription but if you cancel it afterwards, they will offer a year at $1/mo. I'm ok with that to support publications like this.

Yes, I thought it might. For some reason, I got to watch the whole thing when it first came out. Maybe Epoch Times did that as a teaser to get people to ultimately subscribe? As is typical of them, this was superbly done and Jan -- once again -- shows himself as the true professional that he is. Oh, and DeSantis comes out looking pretty good, too! ;)

yes and this month I will probably take it. 2 subscribtions I have will end, and together they will pay for the new one. I have been looking at Epoch times and seems they do a good job

Here's a link to the trailer for the full interview: https://www.theepochtimes.com/exclusive-documentary-desantis-florida-vs-lockdowns_3834081.html I think you might need a subscription (?) to watch the whole thing?

Dig back for his interview with James Lindsay.

Jan Jekielek is a serious interviewer who has guests on to hear what they have to say. He's the Anti-Hannity.

Hannity must be the worst "interviewer" of all time. He's a bit better on the radio but his TV show is awful. It's all about Hannity all the time.

I stopped watching Jerry Hannity long ago. He invites multiple guest to all speak at once and of course everyone gets louder and louder. Hannity has also proved himself a shill for

big ( anything ).

Last but not least he's a war monger.

Wars are good for ratings.

You mean other than the controlled propaganda? Where is the Hannity coverage of the Death VaXXX? Did I miss that? Quite possible, I don't watch Fox, only get Tucker on rebroadcasts.

No… Hannity isn’t speaking out against the vax like TCarlson and Laura Ingraham are.

And my personal hunch is it’s because Hannity took the vax himself…. Same as trump

So one possible reason for that may be- 1. it’s hard to look your own fate in the eye!

Or 2. he may just not be speaking out about the vax because of his die hard allegiance to trump

And therefore isn’t covering the detrimental effects…

Why are you still watching Hannity? I never could stand him.

Naomi's avatar

I rarely do. I watch Tucker every night or thereabouts. I have FoxNation so if I miss a nightly show I can watch it the next day there. At the end of Tucker's show I get the first few seconds of Hannity and can see who is scheduled. I taped it to catch Ted Cruz's interview the other day. That's about i.

Jan does a good job. I have watched many of these interviews. Every one of them is informative and worthwhile. You should watch his interview with Dr. Yeadon. Wow!

Jan asks good questions and he lets an interview develop.

Best interview I’ve seen in a very long time. After Jeff won the case against the city of Gainesville I was appalled that the media was crickets! I contacted Stew Peters from Telegram and told him about Jeff and they booked the “interview” and I was excited to hear from Jeff.

The “interview” was mostly Stew talking. The clip was sandwiched and sort of buried in the segment. Disappointing to say the least. Here this attorney was moving the needle in a huge way and even the conservative proclaiming to get the truth out did a huge disservice to Jeff and the public that needed to know this important information. People needed to know they could win in court!!!

So THIS interview was FANTASTIC and real! Sharing it everywhere I can.

Yes, it was really good. It took me a little bit to settle into the cadence of it, now recognizing why, but I grew accustomed to and enjoyed it. Thank you, Jeff!! Great work.

Eric...! You add such a shot of grin to Jeff’s humor laden essential daily “real news” updates... excellent observation on Jekielek’s encouragement and accommodations during this admirable interview, so NOT bought mockingbird bs, at least not since “Point - Counterpoint” way back programs...

Jan Jekielek is my favorite interviewer for exactly the reason you stated!

I noticed that also! Jeff got to finish his thoughts!!! 🎉 Great interview Jeff! I for one am very glad that the Spirit spoke to you on that summer day in 2020.

Great post Eric, I haven’t had the chance to watch the interview yet, as when I tried to watch over the weekend, Substack was in maintenance mode so I couldn’t get the link to work. Really looking forward to it, especially after reading your post.

Oh and between you and Jeff, I’m surprised I don’t have coffee all over me and adjacent surfaces with all of the spontaneous guffawing I was doing while reading his post and your comment! 😁

Keep watching that show by Jan. I’ve been watching him for several years now exactly due to your description of his style. He is a major interviewer that doesn’t get his due. I think I’ve watched at least 30 of his shows and only disliked one interview. I don’t like anyone else on Epoch TV in comparison.

Sorry; I'm confused. Did Jan interview Cameltoe, or was that just humor?
