David, thank you for having Steve Inskeep on the show. I'm such a fan of his journalism. His voice has such a comforting tone. NPR wouldn't be NPR without Mr. Inskeep's iconic voice.
@@chriskelly6559been listening to npr since the 70s with my mom. Its always fun to finally see the faces that youve been listening to for years. Love this guy.
anonymous408, Nope, sadly it's been the same. However, I also watch Meidas Touch here in TH-cam, Ben does an episode once every few weeks that shows many who have voted republican all their lives aren't going to vote that way anymore, they some how found the light, so that gives one some hope.🎄❤️🕊
@@bkm2797I have 2 friends who have voted republican their whole lives until the last election. After 4 years of orange turd they voted Democrat for the 1st time..
NPR is one of the most objective sources. It really pissed me off when Elon assigned them the "state funded" media tag on Twitter just to be a dick. Elon is such a petulant child.
Steve Inskeep is a gem. When Robert Siegel retired, I remember thinking we would never again have such an insightful interviewer, but Steve has proven me wrong.
I heard the Trump interview and when Trump faced a tough but fair question he tucked tail and ran by hanging up. That said what we needed know as the answer to the question.
He is such a coward. If he had actual evidence the election was stolen from him then he would back up his claim but of course he can't because he doesn't have any
Some people don't care what is true. They aren't wired the same as critical thinkers. And so, for the purposes if damage control, we need to figure out how to talk to them differently.
@@presence5426 Thanks for the well reasoned reply. I agree that Trump fans aren’t likely to be swayed by logical discussions. I’m trying to think of a means to speak to Trump fans the way Trump would without being disingenuous and as unsavory as Trump. Probably the best way to deal with Trumpism is to figure out how to talk to politically disengaged voters in a way which will convince them to participate. I still haven’t figured out what that way is….
Republicans are attempting to rewrite history so they, us whites, don’t look so bad to blacks. This is abhorrent, and we should ALL be fighting it with our voices loudly! History forgotten is history repeated, we need to remember, to never forget, so we protect human rights for all.
Finally, i see his last name spelled. I wasn't that interested to look it up, but the NPR announcers always sound like they're saying, Steve Insky. ( i thought, "he has a suffix for a last name!!!')
Great interview! I think one of issues we have today is people have no wiggle room in their arguments. It's simply I am right and you are wrong period. You can't work with someone on an issue when they can't see any other side of the argument.
That primarily falls on trump supporters. They argue from a emotional based viewpoint and are closed to reason or facts. Especially when they have a high degree of ignorance and denial. And complete need to be right!
@@chriskelly6559 I agree! You can’t reason with crazy! Every single time I’ve tried to interact with a trumper it becomes a circular argument and around and around it goes! It makes me think of the Charlie Manson cult and followers!
Inskeep makes a very good point that in bygone days would not need to have been stated: Some people aren't evil, they're just wrong. I am glad to have been reminded.
Really good interview, linking past and present, trying to find some wisdom in the past. I'm not an american , I don't know that journalist but he was really really interesting and opiniated in his seek for consensus and making things happen.
I've noticed a fair amount of the civil war talk comes from folks who have NO idea about the real-life consequences of civil war. These are the same people who cant handle the rigors of driving and meltdown at being inconvenienced at a fast food restaurant.
After suffering from observing US politics but here we have people explaining the realities of politics and showing historical perspective. The more that debates lije this are heard the better we will all be.
I saw Lincolns bloody pillow at his house and was in his Booth were he was killed in a Six grade trip to Washington DC 20 years ago and I always felt connected to him since that trip
What a great, amazing, insightful interview, wow.. I have probably heard of him or read something but didn't pay attention but definitely will be more! Thank you David!
@ScipioVespasianAurelius Listen genius, what do you think that the inserection attempt on January 6th was all about? This is why that wannabe dictator is being dragged through the judicial system amongst other corrupt things that dictators do like keeping top secret documents that belong to We the People...educucate yourself man!🙄
The questions about how we integrate people into labor was answered by the state unleashing violence on organizing workers at the end of the 19th century
Creating a more perfect Union is an ongoing endeavor, which can not be accomplished with retaliation, pay back, revenge, or hypocrisy, it requires an effort to work together, understand, and compromise for the good of the nation and it's citizens. Both parties need to be willing to work together! It's the job of Congress to keep the government open and working. The 2 parties aren't enemies, they are 2 wings of the same bird the need to work together so the bird doesn't spiral down to death. Get this bird flying and prepared for our future. You can't do that when you keep wanting to burn the place down. We don't want a burned out nation!
I think his narcissism is so deep that anything that doesn't serve him is tossed behind him and left in his mental wake. His wealth allows him to do that. Hopefully his indictments will catch up to him and he won't be able to do the same thing to those.
I. moved to Indiana in 2014 and one reason i'm proud to be there is because it's where Steve Innskeep comes from! Not very rational but true, nevertheless.
Women’s right to be fully human and full citizens IS at issue though-at least, women whose bodies could labor in service of pregnancy and increasing (as Alito put it) the “domestic supply” of (white) adoptable infants! Have you not heard of a little development called the overturning of Roe, Mr Inskeep?
One of the problems with interviewing Trump is that what he says is only for effect at that moment. A journalist is supposed to tease out facts and look for obvious inconsistencies. Trump doesn't care about being consistent, he doesn't care about any sense of truth. He really is like a walking talking id.
“I bet you don’t ask Biden the hard questions” Mr president all I asked was what your plans are for 2024 “Excuse me don’t be rude you’re fake news don’t ever talk to a president that way”
Lincoln was a statesman of which the only other one I can think of is my president Nelson Mandela… they moved forward for the greater good of mankind ❤🙏🏽
Please tell Steve Inskeep that we are in a cold civil war at present. There isn't a lot of actual weapons being used but the battle is going on throughout the country. We are verbally fighting the rise of fascism and trying to keep and defend our secular democratic republic and our Constitution.
"There are circumstances where people are not necessarily evil; they're just wrong." True the vast majority of the time when dealing conservative people irl. A lot of people don't even know why they believe what they do. When people can sort that out either on their own or through good faith, non argumentative conversations, that's where real productivity and progress happens. I've gotten so much better at talking politics with my dad in recent years, even though he's conservative. I think he's able to better understand me too, more receptive. And it goes both ways; I'm probably not 100% right on everything either. I'll never be conservative though haha, and my dad probably will never be liberal either. "Differ we must" I suppose..
In his conversation David mentioned that some people think of Jews as subhuman. While I had to fight my way out of the prejudice I was taught against African Americans I never had that problem about Jews. When I was young I was not aware that anyone who is a Jew actually was in any way different. I still don't see any of them to be anything other than just another person. I'm not sure that I want to know how they are supposedly different. Maybe someone could explain to me that supposedly intelligent beings can think of Jews as any sort of lesser human. I hope I said that so that it's understood as I meant it, but in case I missed it above another way is: Jews are people period. Anyone who thinks they are lesser are themselves idiots.
I totally understand your point, but as an autistic, brown female, I have a hard time seeing these issues as a mare political differences. Look at the different levels am oppressed. And, one of my children is brown and girl trans. No, thank you.
I’m a huge liberal and listen to NPR all the time and I don’t care for Netanyahu. In my opinion, Inskeep’s interview with Bibi was so adversarial as to waste the entire opportunity for information.
I quite often listen to NPR. Nice to have a face to go with that voice. Shout out to 91.7 WUOM. The only decent thing that's ever come from Ann Arbor. (Shhhh. Don't tell anyone, but I'm a Buckeye 😂)

Trump needs arrested
Steve is a real journalist, he doesn't pick sides, he states the facts and let's you decide. Thanks David for having him on.
try to convince the Conservatives that! lol (or is your experience different?)

Great David for having Steve Inskeep! NPR and he are such a great example of good journalism.
Excellent interview. Have listened to Steve on the radio for years but it was nice to actually put a face to the voice. Nice.
I've heard this voice so many times. First time seeing his face. I've always liked Steve Inskeep. NPR royalty, to be sure.

It was pure evil. I don't know of many slaves treated well or respected. It was pure misery. Inhumane treatment of people period.
Republicans are attempting to rewrite history so they, us whites, don’t look so bad to blacks. This is abhorrent, and we should ALL be fighting it with our voices loudly! History forgotten is history repeated, we need to remember, to never forget, so we protect human rights for all.
That fact that it’s called slavery sort of leaves little room for these right wing nut jobs to rewrite history…although they try!
I appreciate the realistic approach you both discussed. Looking forward to reading Steve's book.
I dont care who you are as a politician ....but please follow the constitution and leave when your voted out or done with term limits
I listen to Steve all the time. Public radio rocks.
Finally, i see his last name spelled. I wasn't that interested to look it up, but the NPR announcers always sound like they're saying, Steve Insky. ( i thought, "he has a suffix for a last name!!!')

Ya I remember growing up in the 90's , people were more careful to preface their opinions with "in my opinion ". Imagine that lol
I listen to Steve Inskeep all the time. Big fan of NPR
The MAGA cult idiots don't listen to NPR, they prefer Fox fake news.
Been listening to Morning Edition and All Things Considered for 45+ years.
Great Job, David! Inskeep is a brilliant mind! Thanks, and Happy Holiday to your Family!
Listen to Steve every morning! Thank you for having him on today :)
Great guest and interview!
Wow! Great guest. Inskeep is a (s)keeper!
"It was a perfect phonecall....the likes of which we've never seen!"
"They're about style over substance. Fantasies versus facts." Exactly.
I think if there was anybody I would care to be more like it is Steve Inskeep. And of course David Pakman. 🙂
Awesome conversation. Inskeep is on point. I wish his words could reach everyone. People need to wake up!
I compare listening to Steve Insky's broadcasts to the feeling I got listening to Walter Cronkite. You can tell a real reporter when you hear one. IMO
Inskeep makes a very good point that in bygone days would not need to have been stated: Some people aren't evil, they're just wrong. I am glad to have been reminded.
I’d recognize that voice anywhere. Love Steve!
What an iconic voice Inskeep is. I feel like I've been listening to him my entire life.
Really good interview, linking past and present, trying to find some wisdom in the past.
I'm not an american , I don't know that journalist but he was really really interesting and opiniated in his seek for consensus and making things happen.
My car radio is stuck on NPR . Thank you for an insightful interview with Steve Inskeep.
Hopefully you give what you can to your local station.
It's so great to put a face with the voice I've listened to for years!
I've noticed a fair amount of the civil war talk comes from folks who have NO idea about the real-life consequences of civil war. These are the same people who cant handle the rigors of driving and meltdown at being inconvenienced at a fast food restaurant.
These are the same people who've never read a book and think the world is a video game
Omg!!!! Love Steve and much as David!
Man, you got Inskeep! That is awesome! Congrats!
I love Steve Inskeep! Thanks for interviewing him!
Congratulations David. Steve is on your show - you don't need anyone to tell you the meaning of your impact anymore I hope lol
David, Sir, this is great, Steve is awesome!
Having Steve on the show itself is yet another milestone. Fantastic!
Steve Inskeep is one the main reasons I am a sustaining member of NPR and TPR!
Thanks for having Steve Inskeep on your show.
The way Steve enthusiastically thanked David for the Lynn vs. Liz correction early in the interview made me instantly like him.
Thank you for the video and commentary, love steve!

Just thanks David..❤
That was a good one, made Trump scamper off and I think he REALLY hates he did that in hindsight. Probably still burns in his mind.
I think his narcissism is so deep that anything that doesn't serve him is tossed behind him and left in his mental wake.
His wealth allows him to do that.
Hopefully his indictments will catch up to him and he won't be able to do the same thing to those.

His voice is silk. He could forecast a civil war I’ll bee like “Inskeep.” 😌

Doing nothing is much easier than doing something. Beyond that, I have no input.

People are the same as then, as we are now. This will be from the beginning of the end. How do we live together? Slavery remains today.

Lincoln was a statesman of which the only other one I can think of is my president Nelson Mandela… they moved forward for the greater good of mankind ❤🙏🏽
I still have the same opinion to Liz Cheney as I did five years ago. I think of her as a dangerous corrupt tool to be used and then tossed away.
President Trump has a gag order on must of his indictments!
Whom?
Hasn't stopped him from talking or texting has it?
Right Steve, no adjectives
Hi Steve from a fellow Hoosier! 👍
Please tell Steve Inskeep that we are in a cold civil war at present. There isn't a lot of actual weapons being used but the battle is going on throughout the country. We are verbally fighting the rise of fascism and trying to keep and defend our secular democratic republic and our Constitution.
Steve went to college with an attorney, a blind student and attorney, that I hired here in Louisville. I think they were friends. Both are amazing!
Nice sweater, David!
Wow he did not look like that in my head all these years 😂😂😂
At first, looked like Biden, 25 yrs ago.

Interesting how unenthused the people behind dumpy look!
They thought they were getting 20$ but it was only 10$
Oh, so THAT'S what Steve Inskeep looks like. 😀
Saying "there's a black or white position on slavery today" maybe not the best choice of words Steve-o
speaking of lincoln, can we all start referring to the secretary of state as A. Blinken?
surely, i am not the only person to put that together.
