I don't think I - you know, I'm not comfortable with that. That would be the worst thing in the world not to look someone in the eye while I'm interviewing them. In your book - the little part I read today, you said you like that. I usually don't get to see my guests 'cause they're not in Philly, so we just connect via high-tech stuff. STERN: I didn't know if you admitted that or not, so I didn't bring it up. I mean, Howard knows what good radio is, so he's not going to go on too long. GROSS: It's funny 'cause I was thinking, like, is Howard going to give long answers? And I thought, no.

But I don't know if I'm a good interview. STERN: And when she cuts me off, my ego is going to be destroyed 'cause I think I'm a pretty good broadcaster. So I said, oh, she's going to be cutting me off every minute. And then I got filled with dread because I don't know that I'm a really good interview, to be honest. And you said something about when you interview people that you cut them off quickly if they're boring or going on too long. It was as if you were talking to me.Īnd then I read a little further along. That's why I almost didn't write the book. And the first thing, like, literally that you wrote is, hey, when I was writing a book about interviews, I didn't know if they'd be good to read because, you know, people have heard them on the radio. STERN: So I - on my Kindle, you get a little chapter for free. And I went - oh, wow, I should have read this. STERN: And so - yeah - so I went on my Kindle account, you know? And here you have written a book on interviewing, which is why I'm here talking to you. And the first thing I learned was that you had written a book. STERN: And I said to my wife, I'm going on the Terry Gross show. I just know some of them are like, what? (Laughter) But. But certainly mine, we seem to be pretty jacked up about it. So no, no, I - I don't know about your listeners. To hear you two guys together, it's going to be awesome, blah, blah, blah. Everyone was like, oh, she's the best interviewer in the world. HOWARD STERN: No, I actually got a really great reaction when I said on my show that I'm coming on the Terry Gross show. And some of your listeners probably think - public radio's so incredibly boring why are you wasting your time on public radio?

You know, like, some of our listeners - I think just a few - but some of our listeners are outraged that Howard Stern's going to be on our show. GROSS: Howard Stern, welcome to FRESH AIR. His show became nationally syndicated in 1986 and moved to Sirius Satellite Radio in 2006. But he admits his show still contains a fair amount of what he calls second-grade humor. At the age of 65, he says he's changed over the years and has moved away from some of the crude sex talk and sexism of his earlier years and has been emphasizing empathy over outrageousness in his interviews. I spoke with him last May after the publication of his book, "Howard Stern Comes Again," collecting some of his favorite interviews. We start today with an interview from this year - Howard Stern.
