Chomsky has spent most of his life debating so his aggressiveness in this case seems to stem from how other people view the discourse (or how he agrees or disagrees with Sam) initially.
I would put that to an 87 year old academic who's vast library jammed in his head makes discourse with Sam (who I've listened to his podcast and doesn't typically source arguments and occasionally comes across as an ideologue) a little frustrating. Or maybe he's just old and crotchety.
