The Horowitz interview is fine. It's two people having a discussion and bouncing things backwards and forwards. They both seem OK with it. It isn't a performance for the camera, it's a conversation which forgot the camera.

The two people have different styles. One a quick talker, one slower. Stereotyping makes us assume quick talkers sound shallow and slow talkers sound dim. But Horowitz changes gear for different sections. Dave Packard was a very slow talker, it's an indication of the amount of thought going on behind the scenes.

TV producers think more closely matched people make better viewing, or they like throwing strongly opposed people together in today's answer to cock-fighting. This is neither of those this is reality.

Fried and Horowitz probably both enjoyed it, and learned about each other's viewpoints.
