Attack of the Theocrats!
The reason RD sits there and takes it, as it were, is the reason he is a best-selling author. The key word there is best-selling, i.e. best at selling. And to sell best, one may have to put up with a little nonsense. In a sense, RD is talking past the interviewer and to the millions, I presume, who listen to the program. In other words, this program amounts to a 4 minute advert - at the meager price of a little personal discomfort - for the book. Well done Richard.
P.S: love the book and sending copies to my nephew and niece!
