The Bob Edwards Show continues the tradition of interviewing interesting people in all walks of life Edwards exemplified on Morning Edition, but now with the freedom of time. Edwards told the NewsHour with Jim Leher's Terrance Smith, "The longest interview I could do on the air for Morning Edition was eight minutes. Now I can interview someone for up to an hour. So it's a freer, more open, more relaxed and enjoyable conversation. The program's really about conversation."
