Carl Newman is interviewed and plays 'Miracle Drug' on the CNBC talk show 'McEnroe' from September 1st, 2004.

McEnroe of course refers to John McEnroe. Yes, THAT John McEnroe. The tennis player. The foul-tempered, ill-mannered tennis player. Wouldn't he be your first choice for talk-show host too? No? What, you didn't even know he had a talk show? Neither did most of America and his program lasted just a few months on the air before the network realized their terrible mistake.

As bad as he was as host, his interviews sometimes benefited because of it. This exchange is a good example - plenty of odd moments because they apparently hadn't rehearsed what they would talk about, instead Carl has a more natural conversation with a poor conversationalist. Now that's good TV.
