George Stroumboulopoulos

After spending 5 minutes spelling George's last name -- good god, 17 letters!? I would like to say that Strombo's The Hour has got to be one of the greatest talk shows ever. And it's George, a skilled, respectful, and dynamic host who gives such punch to the show.

Guests on the show are interviewed professionally and respectfully. Give him anyone! I mean anyone! Amy Winehouse, Spike Lee, Pink, Matt Damon, Jean Chretien, GSP - and he can make that guest feel as though they are sharing a pint with him at a quaint pub downtown. Totally relaxed, guests are able to speak as though they are doing a performance. And George is humble enough to let them.

Man it's amazing. You'll just have to watch to understand. 11 pm on CBC. weeknights:
