Ari Melba Toast has no fewer than four (4) "Hmmmm"'s [View all]

during the first half of the program.

See, he’s got this maddening (to me at least) thing he does: a guest will elucidate his or her opinion in reasonable detail and depth and when finished Ari will sit there expressionless for two seconds and go “Hmm”. Wait. Wait. Wait. And then he will ask a completely unrelated question and it makes me wonder if he were even listening.

Waiting for the Friday Rapper or Hip Hop guest who just may be paired with a Princeton astrophysicist.
