Aaron J Smith is a former alcoholic and drug addict who found God, cleaned up his act and now supervises psychiatric patients in a maximum security prison in Wisconsin. He chats to James about all sorts of interesting things from his time in the military - including in a specialist psyops unit where he did a lot of work with crisis actors - to his erudite and insightful thoughts on the coming totalitarian technocracy. He has written a sci fi novel on the subject - Project Nimrod - the first in a planned series, which James is now keen to read because Aaron, besides being a good man of God, is a smart cookie.
(You can tell because he and his brother are both huge fans of the Delingpod, especially the episodes with Dick)

The delingpod
For ten years I kept badgering my son to read War and Peace. “It’s possibly the greatest novel you’ll ever read. You’ll love it! It’s a masterpiece,” I promised. And for ten years, he resisted. When finally he did read it, he admitted to me that I was right. “So why didn’t you read it earlier?” I asked. “Because you were so annoyingly enthusiastic about it!”, he replied.
This is why my advice to you is “Don’t listen to the delingpod! It’s boring and it’s rubbish and you’ll hate it!”
