If he'd do it, would be fun too.

Let's do it.
John Oliver hosts a political talkshow. that's fine if you're showing off a specific Lemmy instance or community, but if your goal is to show off Lemmy as a platform, doing so with that topic is a recipe for disaster.
We don't even have to bring up reddit other than asking how he felt about his pictures. We can just do a regular ama about himself. The point is not getting him to talk bad about reddit, but to show the world that lemmy is a viable alternative to reddit
Especially since Lemmy's roots are also political, and controversially so
Absolutely. If he'd do it, it's worth trying.
Wow, that is a great idea. Actually, I wonder if we can find someone here who has some kind of connection
@nieceandtows I honestly think this would be doable and maybe worth perusing. I wonder who has the most contacts with Hollywood to make something like this happen
Yessssssss!!!
