Lecturing Thom on how he should be conducting the interview. I give Thom a lot of credit for holding back.

As we say in Boston - wicked asshole!

and intentions other than to make a buck peddling hearsay and scandalous insider info. I also heard the interview and couldn’t believe how rude and arrogant Wolff came off. I’m glad Thom ditched the belligerent author after the first segment. Hartmann is such a class act in that he treated Wolff with the respect he fully didn’t deserve.

I didn't read Wolff's book, nor did I want to after this interview. He was so tRump-like: insulting, belligerent, & truculent. He came & left with a bad attitude & I've wondered since has he reached out to apologize for leaving such a tRumpian impression &has Thom mentioned this interview since.

i don't know how in the world you found this thread from seven months ago, but thanks for making me your first post/reply.

i think i've heard thom mention him once or twice since then but just in passing, he didn't dish him or comment on what a douche he was on the show.
