Love the idea and would love to be a guest. Big problem however in that this would require you to "read all of my works beforehand" Not only would that be a monumentally challenging and time consuming task given the sheer volume of writings I have published, it would also likely relate in your early death from suicide and/or end with you consigned to a mental institution for the remainder of your days. That said, if you can manage it and stay alive and sane count me in! Oh wait, you didn't invite me to be a guest. Damn. Well, I am ready anytime that changes and I already know the piece I would choose to read aloud and no, it would (probably) not be one featuring argan oil. 😁 BTW you should come on my podcast sometime. Would be fun to chat in person. You did not realize I had a Podcast? Congratulations you are like 99.99996% of people on Substack and 99.99999999% of people in the world. And yes I did the math so don't bother checking.

Although if we narrowed down to some of your fiction work like the US-MEX war one and some selective pieces like the thought experiments, I would handle reading and then having a live session with you. dM and let's brainstorm.

So you are the person reading the War of the Americas. I wondered who it was…LOL! Wish I could get more interest in that particular series because I do happen to like it a lot myself which is weird because generally speaking I dislike action/adventure Tom Clancy type thrillers which is basically what it is. The other one I really like even more than War of the Americas that no one else does is my long running (light) fantasy “series” Expatrianas Histories. I call it light fantasy to contrast it with the way overdone and exhausting Game of Thrones style epic world building fantasy. I can’t even pick up a fantasy book anymore because I get tired just looking at the covers. Way, way, way too many fucking characters and backstories and minituae I dont give a shit about. EH has only a few characters, really just two main characters, and in addition to the traditional fantasy elements has some humor and fun. But the humor is restrained and not over the top or the main focus like Xanth or any of the satirical fantasy series I have read. In any case both have been super fun to write. Unfortunately neither have been all that fun to read apparently based on their view statistics. Hah! Would love to do the show at some point if you would have me and def want to chat on my podcast. I will DM you with some options on timing.

I've read a lot of your work but your archives are extensive for sure 😁

I did know about your podcasts...I've actually checked it out when you've gone live several times including the last time your were driving around and talking.

And yes it would be a huge task to read all your work LOL

And yes I would be down for talking with you anytime. I think it would be a blast.

Well deserved! I’ll be there and this pod’s process sounds like the sky is the limit. Very cool, unique idea to explore in this format.
