As an FYI, Penn Jillette doesn't drink or do any drugs. It's a pretty interesting position for someone who I would assume would enjoy the bar scene.

Yep, he's mentioned that a couple of times in the show. It makes me even more impressed with his politics -- his only dog in the fight is liberty, and he's as adamantly against stupid drug laws as the NORML guys.

If you haven't heard his essay on NPR about atheism it's very very good.

If you pop to www.randi.org you can get hold of the DVDs from the various "Amazing Meeting" conferences, at which Penn often speaks - he's very amusing - Teller also speaks on some ;)

There's plenty of other speakers which are really worth hearing too.

One that will likely interest you is Neil Gershenfeld talking about the FAB labs last year (TAM5)
