Its hard to listen to Rubio for longer than a few seconds. His words just keep slipping away from me, like my brain is trying to keep them from me

Oh I know. Dickerson is the best political/any new reporter in the business right now. Face the Nation is must watch due to him.

There pretty clearly are "applause allowed" signs for the audience with some bouncers enforcing it, or a really good sound isolation system.

John Dickerson is my news-crush. Listen to Whistlestop if you want to hear the dulcet tones of his voice talk about Presidential election history.

Among other things, John Dickerson is one of the 3 hosts of the excellent Slate's Political Gabfest podcast.

Dickerson thinks he's in a debate among reasonable people. I hope he can live through this loving thing or the next Whistlestop will be him blowing his brains out.
