Nevada Bob with Eric Dahl on set of Nashville's Rock & Review |
One aim of a show host is to make guests feel comfortable in front of the camera, and you can tell Nevada Bob is precisely that. He looks right at home.
A second goal of an interviewer is to get the interviewee to talk by asking open-ended questions. No producer likes dead air during a show.
A third aim is to produce a show that viewers will enjoy and tell their friends about. That's why Eric Dahl enjoyed sharing Nevada Bob Gordon with his Rock & Review viewers.
Nevada Bob loves telling stories and as anyone will attest he has a massive warehouse of stories inside of him. Mr. Dahl was clearly having a good time. (Or else he's an exceptionally talented actor.)
I had to laugh when Bob talked about his age. When this segment was filmed he was nearing 83 but he often hears people say, "I can't believe you're a day over 80."
I'll add here that Nevada Bob still has the spirit of a youngster and the innocence of a child in some respects. Yes, he's seen a lot of life--both the sunshine and the storms--but he continues to be remarkably curious about new things and has become neither cynical nor jaded.
For the record, this is just a fragment from a longer interview which is slated to air on Saturday.
