Charlie, so glad you are coming back. You are a great brain picker and glad you are picking the mind of Fareed.

First and foremost, Thanks to you Charlie Rose. You've taught me, another citizen of the world 🌎 in America 🇺🇸, to engage with more critical thinking. I've been your follower for many years and you've taught me through the questions you've asked, thought provoking instances on each guest.

Finally, Fareed Thank you for the lessons in history, I love Been an American for the freedom it has granted us with: Be yourself and say what you think.

Rose and Zaharia are two of my most favorite journalists/anchors. I do miss Rose's TV shows, but now I found him again to enjoy his interviews.

Much love to you Charlie. Your appearance shook me up. It evokes old good times. I have been following your shows since 2001 and yet I didn’t see anyone coming close to what you have done in the domain of pure journalism. GOD bless you man.

Loved the podcast. Bought Age of Revolution.

As an American citizen (of many decades) of Indian descent, I was struck by Fareed’s opening comments.

I have been told twice “You can be a US citizen but you will never be an American!”.

My response has been “I love America that is why I chose America over my country of birth - a very difficult choice. America chose me as I came here on an engineering fellowship to do my Ph.D. I continue to repay America’s trust & investment in me by leading innovation, creating jobs, and paying my share of taxes. In your case, you being an American is a mere accident of birth. Happy to match my contributions to this country I love to yours on any metric of your choosing”.

I friggin Love you Charlie! Miss you BIG TIME on PBS, but ALWAYS Supportive of what you bring to the national discussion. Only someone of your Caliber/History could do what you do with the some of the Greatest Minds of the current Times. btw. my Son is named Charlie, not for you, but I'm so Glad in some way that he shares your name. Keep doing what you do. We NEED your voice in today's politics now more then ever!

Thank you Charlie and your media team for this interview. Your ability to ask a question and allow the guest all the time he/she needs to answer is a rare trait in a world of 2 minutes sound bites. I am a better educated person because of you and I thank you and your team.

[exeterline]

Another great hour+ of insight into today's important issues. Thank you.

[valeryz]

Thank you, Charlie. It’s good to see you back, we missed you.

[raywest]

Welcome back Charlie! Nobody has come close to filling your shoes.

[mairrunge]

Always thoughtful and intelligent probing by you, Mr. Rose. Thank you.

The interview captures the essence of what makes the United States a unique and enduring nation. Emphasizing America's greatness is already an established achievement, rooted in the values and vision of the founding fathers, this resonates deeply. It's a powerful reminder that the country's true strength lies in its core principles and heritage, rather than in needing to be "made great again." It’s an inspiring call for Americans to reconnect with that original spirit.

[tsegayetadesse]

[suzankhoshnevisriahi]

So good to see you back and hear your interview and intelligent questions.

[woofwoof]

Fareed claims he is from a tiny minority in India alluding to discrimination. He certainly was from privileged class, his father was a much Ruling party politician and Islamic scholar. He was certainly a member of the Elite class.

[jonathanwexler]

Great to see these two heavyweights on equally weighty topics.

[zvishapiro]

Thank you for coming back to stimulate our minds with your great skills

[mcgilcol]

Never change, Fareed -- Whig history right until the bitter end!
