What is this job called?

I want to be an interviewer. I want the job where I get to talk to people and ask them their thoughts.

I know I can do it better than these dead fish interviewers..

I don't have a journalism degree but I have likeability.

Start by doing it and posting your interviews online. If you can find someone high profile to interview, you'll get the attention you want. I would have thought YouTube is the place to start, start a channel.

I just want to have conversations. I don't want to write snarky print later. I want to be Larry King. A sparkling happy Larry King. He's great because he's grumpy and unflappable. I'm great because I treat the interviewee like a person.

I like interview podcasts.

People come up with all sorts of ideas.

There's one called "Walking The Dog" that I like - but her interviewees veer towards the boring sometimes.

What sort of people interest you? Politicians, showbiz types?

I wanted to start an interview channel. Still might. I'd call it "Gurl, puhlease!" Catchy, right? Please do not steal OP.

Congratulations, you are now a podcaster.
