The show
Near the end of his own career after leaving CBS News in a cloud of controversy, Rather soon was signed by AXS TV. In 2013 his show kicked off with interviews of stars including Roger Daltrey and Linda Ronstadt. This foreshadowed a trend of Rather getting an increasing proportion of rock stars, even though he says of himself that he missed the Rock & Roll bandwagon until he was much older.[2]
