      You’ll be able to find me on the Gabfest every week and on 60 Minutes once the fall season starts.

  3. John Dickerson. I will miss you on CBS This Morning. So like you I will now sleep late. I admired your smarts, your rather clever comebacks and always the innocent smile. I am still listening to the Gabfest and I love Whistlestop podcast. I am Slate +. By the way, Of all the things you said on the morning show this one is unforgettable. “Best first date I ever had”. And the smile that so dearly followed. See you on 60 Minutes!

  4. You are the reason I kept watching CBS This Morning after Charlie Rose left. You brought an in-depth component to the news. I enjoy your podcasts and am looking forward to your contributions to 60 Minutes.

  5. You’re a picker, a singer and an engaging raconteur. One man show. “Droll Newsman.” Somewhere off Broadway, intimate theater. Then take it on tour. Your fans would eat it up.
