That might be the single best interview of a notable person I have ever seen or heard. Just masterfully done by you and edited by some really talented people. Maybe the best thing about it was realizing that Shatner knew it was likely one of the best interviews he had ever done.

Oh Bill. How can you not love this man? If you didn't follow, the whole kerfuffle between Shatner and the Redlettermedia guys was very amusing. You should talk to Avery Brooks, I think he has more of his marbles left intact. Patrick Stewart is sadly a lost cause.

I also don't want William Shatner to die. Loving this interview so far.

Great interview and it’s obvious Shatner and Moynihan enjoyed every minute of it. Shatner is Socrates reincarnated.

This was so good! The interview was great. I like this format much better than the 2Way thing.

Shatner had been trailed on the Fifth - the interview was waaay better than anticipated.

Did this ever get published? I’m not seeing it in the feed

What an inspiring soul Shatner is. Great work, Moyn.

Moynihan. Usually, you exhilarate and touch my feeble mind…this time, you touched my heart. Love you, baby.

I envy Bill Shatner, he’s an American treasure. Great reboot, Moynihan.

To be 95 years old and afraid of death. Wow. I find that so fascinating, it was a thread I personally would have pursued further. May we never retire and/or remain engaged.

He's a gem.

Great interview. I was able to sit up front to see Shatner on tour for Shatner's World back in 2013 at the Tennessee Performance Art Center in Nashville. As he has gotten older, he has been fascinated with the meaning of life and death, which I'm also fascinated and seem to default to Camus.

I had only hoped that following the interview was another in his series on Brown Bag Wine Tasting where a wine is sampled before revealing the type and maker of the wine.

What I wouldn't give go see Shatner and Glenn Lowrey have a full on old man exuberance chat
