Wes Calimer, writer and director of the upcoming films “Prologue Of A Deadman” and “Sex Lives Of Superheroes," and the producer of YouTube’s “Nicki’s GeekGasm!”
Dean Putney, Boing Boing’s software wrangler and the Johnny Appleseed of weird awesomeness.
Kevin Kelly, senior maverick at Wired, editor of Cool Tools, co-founder of Quantified Self, and author of books.
Here are a few of the things we talked about in this episode:
The Silver Cord graphic novel by Kevin Kelly and his co-creators.

Dean asks Kevin for an update on Kevin's story from the very first-episode of This American Life: "After he goes to Jerusalem and sleeps on what is supposedly the very spot where Jesus was crucified, Kevin Kelly has a revelation: that he should live the next six months as if he would die at the end of them."
