My nemesis, The Happy Tutor, Dungeon Master to the Stars in Wealth Bondage, proposes a Plot/subplot approach to podcasts. I will interview important people and let them maintain their dignity. Meanwhile, Tutor will hold Carnival next door. I doubt this will work. Why would Bill Clinton or anyone else of any importance submit to this kind of demolition of the very stage on which they stand? A send up like this could totally change the world as we know it. Why would philanthropists, CEOs, or politicians want that?
Yeah, they would have to risk a loss. Giving ain't for sissies.

I wouldn't expect much until the presidential contest is over, he won't do anything that might be a problem for the campaign. He plugged the book on Letterman last night, and said that his ten rules for his appearance were all "Don't make any news."
After all that is over, I suspect that Pres. Clinton has enough of a sense of humor to be willing. You might not have the clout to get the ask through the gatekeepers, but I don't think he is afraid of public conversation the way W and Co. are.

Pitch him .. what a way to inroduce him to the new frontier of media, and the new frontier of giving.
Give till the spanking (almost) hurts .. it's good for you, of course.

Well, Tutor might be the best person to interview him about his current love life.
