How about an interview with Robert Harris, another fabulous lawyer/novelist? Among other things, his most recent book, Act of Oblivion, is an amazing historical novel that is very hard to put down (the hunt for the regicides after the Restoration in Britain), but he also wrote the excellent Munich (a contrarian take on appeasement that is also pretty exciting despite everyone knowing what's going to happen), Fatherland (alt history, Germany-wins-WWII-and-Pres.-Joseph-Kennedy-is-about-to-launch-detente-with-the-Germans), and Pompeii about Pompeii! I think you'd have a blast interviewing him, and I'd love to read that!
