Most of his guests-- who are made to look clueless-- are gracious enough to laugh it off, but it gets a little old, especially when they are there to talk the day's political news relative to their expertise. It is too frequently cringe-worthy and embarrassing. I'm not slamming rap music or rappers, but I watch the show for the legal and political commentary.
