More people should be like him. God bless you, Mr. Albom.
First we hear about Judism and how he is trying to equate it with other faiths. It is a weak connection. The talk does not match the reality since they long ago lost any connection with god. Thus this part of the interview falls flat in content and presentation.
When he drifts into discussion of the auto industry he starts out fine pointing out the need for industry in this nation instead of being a service economy. Then he blows it. The private jet reference is EXACTLY the point. Waste and incompetent management brought the industry down. We did not miss the point, but Albom did.
While the book may be intended to inspire us, maybe, the interview lets me know to avoid the book and his contrived insights.

Thank you for interviewing such an interesting person Katie.
Listening to stories like this one makes us more humane.
Dou you know if the book you and your interviewee were talking about is available in México?
