Absolutely.

would love to see it.

Brian Greene would be very interesting, as well

I think so too, he would likely be better on sam harris's podcast since they are already acquainted. He tends to be pretty confident/confrontational to people who he disagrees with which makes him a pretty good pick for jre.
