Clarification please: can we just have four beers with one person?
I mean, hey, maybe Stacy Kiebler is a total lightweight. Just need to know if this is a valid option.

I'm struggling to come up with 2. Rick Wakeman would be on there for sure, and that would probably take up all 4 of my beers.
edit: Actually I'll throw Kim Jong-un on there, if I can slip some truth serum into his beer.

What did I miss? Not sure of his health or lack thereof. But I would love to hear about shock and awe and how he dismantled the Iraqi military. EDIT: Did not realize he died or forgot. Dang.

I might go so far as to say that "every angle" works in this instance. Still the single best proof of a higher power in charge of creation I've ever seen. No WAY that happened by accident.

Pope? Bobama?
Sure But the massive amount of journalists, comedians, and entertainers? Nah. As a gamer, one of my other four would would be a major name in gaming, such as Sid Meier or Richard Garfield. Gary Gygax would have been my choice prior to his death. And then for my fourth? Michael Moorcock - the only one of the founding massively influential fantasy writers still alive, kicking, and writing.

1. Kevin Spacey

Keeping with my tradition of not picking ones that have already been picked (Pope and Buffet would probably make my list)...
1. Tucker Carlson 2. Matthew McConaughey 3. Nick Offerman 4. Robert Plant

Dalai Lama
Barack Obama Bill Gates Eddie Vedder I'm way more interested in the current Dalai Lama than the pope. I'm fascinated by Warren Buffet but I think Bill Gates would be much more interesting to talk to, especially after the last 10 years of philanthropy from Gates. There's no one in sports/movies that I'd really want on there, so I went with my favorite band's lead singer for the last one. I do absolutely love the Nick Offerman choice from Scarecrow though, and Louis CK woulda been on my shortlist too. I've just seen SO MUCH Louis CK material I'm not sure I need to have a beer with him? |

Is a finalist for my list, should I ever finalize one. Which I probably won't.

I don't think anybody would want to have a beer with Mike Tyson. He might talk your ears off.
