About the Show
Just launched on YouTube, hosted and executive produced by David C. Murphy — building on David's decades-long experience since 2001 hosting and convening conversations with the world's most interesting people.The David C. Murphy Show is a long-form interview program in the tradition of Bloomberg's David Rubenstein Show, PBS & Bloomberg's Charlie Rose Show (albeit it distinctly scandal free…), and CNN's Larry King Live — updated for the era of long form podcasts like Acquired. Each episode is a single, unhurried conversation with a guest who is genuinely shaping our moment: business titans, cultural icons, leading analysts of global affairs, and the occasional person you’ve never heard of but should have.
