I think it would be awesome if you invited Mary Ruwart on to talk about IP.  As you may be aware, Dr. Ruwart holds a couple of patents on medical devices.  Other interesting people on my list of people I'd like to hear on the subject are as follows:

1. L. Neil Smith (he recently released a vampire novel).  He seems to be out of step with the recent shift in popular libertarian thought on this topic.

2. Tarrin Lupo, author of several ebooks, and The Pirates of Savannah, which he has been remarkable successful in marketing despite putting the book directly into the public domain.

3. J. Neil Schulman, author and film maker, noted to be a proponent of private enforcement of intellectual property.

If you could have anyone on to talk about intellectual property, who would you choose?

I've asked Gard to think about having Ed Joyce on not to talk about intellectual property rights but georgism being as he's Mr Geolibertarian.

 

I had one of the longest phone calls I've ever had with Ed the other night & he's a good conversationalist but he's also somebody who really does ask hard questions about implementing liberty policies. maybe not the most radical of libertarians but he does have a unique perspective & would make an interest guest I reckon but of course I could be speaking bollocks
