Obviously every answer is an opinion, and there is no wrong answer.

But, ignoring personality and delivery style, which guest host do you think choose the best guests to interview?

      I wonder, though. When Klepper had on “Stoic Dad” author Ryan Holiday, it definitely seemed like he did so out of a personal connection with Holiday’s writing.

      They absolutely do. Trevor didn’t always choose every guest (of course there is cross-platform promotion), but he had a big say in who he interviewed.

      Likewise, the guest hosts are choosing who to interview. How many times have you heard “I wanted to have you on because…”

      Kosta interviewed that adventure wilderness guy because he went on his guided trip. You think CC found that guy on their own and wanted to promote his outdoor wilderness project?

        Unless you have personal knowledge that the host picks the guests, I would assume TDS works like every other program and has full time booking producers. I’m not saying hosts can’t pick guests occasionally but that’s definitely the exception (just based on the way other shows work).

        I always thought it was funny how many absolutely beautiful black women Trevor interviewed. I don’t know anything about his private life but that couldn’t have been a coincidence.
