Newt is the absolute gentleman who attracts the best out of his guest while interjecting such wise incisive comments.

Newt you are the best interviewer of all time. You compliment your guess and make them relaxed and let them finish their sentences and their thoughts. That level of politeness and decorum is so rare. Furthermore your rational perspective influence by your evident knowledge experience and faith… are deserving great respect.
Thanks for clarifying so many issues adding resolve to my days.
