he had Sam Tannenhaus, who wrote The Death of Conservatism. Pretty interesting stuff about what conservatism means, history of the intellectual leaders, etc..
It's on charlierose.com under the Archive tab if anyone's interested.

One interesting thing he said: The greatest conservative presidents since FDR: Eisenhower and Clinton. Also, Obama has a conservative temperament. Also, the lack of conservative intellectuals hurts liberals. The evolution of conservatism was interesting.
