Pros:
its candid and laid back, you hear some anecdotes that may never have seen the light of day.
its refreshing when you're sick of the "i'm here to plug something" chat show format
he has great guests.
you get an insight into what the guests are life in real life.

cons:
favreau will almost always try to steer the conversation back to him "....its like the time during swingers/made/very bad things/daredevil.."
you're in the middle of a dinner party and its not scripted...now this is a pro too, but it can also be annoying when people talk over each other..sometimes ruining the anecdote. it really is like you're a sixth guest....except you can't contribute.

heres a sample:
