Richard Dawkins does pretty good in the debate or discussion format. But here we have an example of Dawkins' skill combined with a bit of luck, the hubris of the interviewer, and other particularistic circumstances converging on a moment. A moment you absolutely have to hear to believe.
There are three items at this link, but the first one is the one to which I refer:
Richard Dawkins interviewed by John Humphrys on Cardinal Murphy O'Connor
Hat tip: Pharyngula.

I do miss waking up to the Today programme.
I'm not sure why you describe John Humphrey's attitude as hubris, though.
