    Though I have faith in the idea, I think a better idea would be to have the option out there and ask arbitrarily who WANTS to be interviewed instead of picking your specific favorites. That way no one can complain about not being interviewed or feel like they're valued less than anyone else. Pretty sure that's the main reason people are going to qq about the entire thing. I can definitely see why people are calling this a circle jerk, though. Season hasn't even started and you're already interested in interviewing people based on pre-season info. Maybe let the season roll first and see who really shows up.
    To be fair, preseason is essentially the same with some changes to balancing (as of now, we'll probably see more effective scholars, less effective MCH, and more war of attrition in relation to healing/DRK changes).

    If its a 1:1 talk, it only really becomes a circle jerk if both the interviewer and interviewee are relatable to each other, and well... both sides let it happen. If OP remains objective throughout, I don't see it becoming an issue. It's certainly different than interviewing a group of players as someone mentioned earlier.

    Picking out players can also be rough, especially if they're outside of your servers or not your usual contact. There are a handful of players out there who are legitmately good with situational awareness and knowing the circumstances of a fight, it's just hard to point them out, especially if they're unsung heroes or don't use the OF/reddit, doubly so if it's a podcast (less so for Q&A text interviews, which are good at keeping things objective from one side and in regards to contacting people)
