He isn't seeking to establish himself as the ultimate authority on anything. And he doesn't act like his subject is a deep philosophical critique on life & the human condition. Sometimes his topic is sports. But as with most convos, it can go off tangent which I'm fine with. It's what I think a sports talk show should be. A little informative, varied points of view, but still trying to be fun.
What you describe sounds exactly like Colin Cowherd! I say that from the perspective that while I find all of those characteristics very irritating in him, I still enjoy the pithiness of his show... Sometimes...

Will have to give LeBatard another chance...
