Welcome Paul Krassner - satirist, author, columnist, comedian, founder of The Realist magazine, co-founder of the Yippies with Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin, editor of Lenny Bruce's biography, one-time editor of Hustler, and publisher of the legendary Disneyland Memorial Orgy (featuring the Disney characters engaging in a bacchanalian sex spree after Walt died and they were free of their master, which you can buy a print of on his website) - to the Eden Community Interview!
Paul has authored several books; his most recent collections are Who's to Say What's Obscene: Politics, Culture and Comedy in America Today, with a foreword by Arianna Huffington; In Praise of Indecency: Dispatches From the Valley of Porn; and One Hand Jerking: Reports From an Investigative Satirist, with a foreword by Harry Shearer and an introduction by Lewis Black. Paul recently discussed some of these in his Naked Reader author profile over on SexIs Magazine. Paul continues to write and has no plans to sit back idly watching. He currently blogs for the Huffington Post and writes columns for High Times and Adult Video News.
So go ahead and ask –the questions are endless! Everything from: comedy and satire, political protest, conspiracy, counterculture icons, alternative media, sexuality, pornography, psychedelic revolution, writing, censorship, religion, absurdity, to the war on some people who use some drugs – it’s on the table, he’s got stories to tell and opinions to share! I am personally super excited to have a living legend on interview! What an awesome opportunity.
Ask as many questions as you’d like; you can even post about and link to the interview from your blog if you want to. Feel free to share your thoughts!
And there are prizes!
