Interview with Scott Gosnell, in which my shortcomings as a media personality are, like, I mean, you know, you know, you know, revealed.  Scott kindly pointed out that the podcast form gives people time to hit their stride. Hm. In any case, we talk about The Last Samurai, work in progress, Paul Graham’s great discussion of schlep blindness, much more.  The occasional clucking noises in the background are me talking to my neighbour’s cat Frannie, who kept wandering across my laptop mid-Skype.  The podcast is available in various formats, all on offer at the end of Scott’s blogpost  here.
