Kinda related: have you ever done any kinda disguise thing as a party trick?

I recently Listened to your Dead Author's Podcast where you played L. Ron Hubbard. I laughed so hard I got a cramp at the gym and almost fell off the treadmill. Is there anyone, living or dead, you would love to play in a movie/tv show/podcast/etc?

I heard pickling and fermenting stuff is good for gut health and also a fun thing to do. I'm currently awaiting my first batch of kimchi to finish so I can have a nice workplace snack that I can enjoy and also annoy my co-works with the smell until they finally give me an office with a door. Are there any super great things you would advise trying to make at home? Any good recipes, or spices/ingredients I should stick to for optimal gut health?

Now a days, it's pretty much given that one of the first industries to full embrace new technologies is sex/porn. So much of how the internet grew and formed into what it is today was shaped by how people were using it for dating, porn, forming communities around what used to be less accepted social behaviors, creative outlets, and education previously unavailable in certain areas. I'm really very curious as to if there were any scientists or researchers who foresaw it being used that way early on and if they maybe said anything prophetic about the digital sex industry. For those who were surprised by it's use for sex, what were their thoughts and reactions to it?

I am very interested in serious answers, but also fully expect some awkward silliness.

Have any of y'all ever read the graphic novel Transmetropolitan by Warren Ellis? Any thoughts as it relates to the current political and cultural climate? Any books you'd suggest reading? Preferably Fiction, and not something we'd probably have already read in high school?
