Across the UK, across continental North America and around the world, on the internet by webcast

and by podcast, my name is Howard Hughes and this is The Unexplained.

Thank you for returning to the show, also thank you to the great slew of emails that

I've had recently, response from every quarter of the world always good to see emails coming

in from North America too, we are definitely making a breakthrough there.

Very grateful for all your suggestions, your feedback and your thoughts about the show,

but there was some controversy about David Ike, some people thinking that the interview

was absolutely what they wanted to hear and they hadn't heard David Ike interviewed

that way before and a couple saying that maybe I was a little hard on him or pressed him

too much or interrupted him, well the whole idea of this show is that we don't just give

people a platform, we have to try and get them to answer questions that expose the way

that they think, otherwise we don't learn anything about it and that's why I do it that way.

I know there are shows out there and especially on the internet and some of them come out of

America where people are just put in front of a microphone or a Skype headset and they're

just allowed to say whatever they want.

I don't think anybody learns very much from that and I do think some of these people have

to be pushed.

Look, I like David Ike, I think he's saying things that are valuable, so there's me

nailing my colours to the mast, but that isn't going to stop me asking him some hard questions

if hard questions have to be asked because that's my job.

Just as if when I'm doing news on the radio in London, if I get a politician in front

of me and they are making points that I might agree with, well that's really not my business
