Yeah, this is a huge reason the podcast worked so well.
I also think Paul had/has such an interesting career outside of De La.
I think Q-Tip would fit in that same mold as his music has taken him a lot of different places.

But honestly, whoever they get for S2 I'm down to listen now.
Open Mike Eagle and the brand of WHHW is almost just as important as the guest.
