Perhaps you should consider interviewing some JACS authors that are not "leading" chemists (don't we see enough of them everywhere else?), but hard working chemists, perhaps at lesser-known institutions, that are still producing work of sufficient quality for publication in JACS. I suspect their stories, and the stories of their research groups, may be just as interesting as many of those you have interviewed. That said, I greatly appreciate this series of videos!
