Feynman, mainly because he was an amazing professor and knows how to talk to people.
Einstein and Newton disliked people, so they would be terrible conversationslists outside their areas of expertise. I think that was true of Leonardo as well. Edison is also out because he was a dick.
einstein was an outspoken socialist though, so he clearly liked people on some level
You could absolutely blow leonardo’s mind away with modern knowledge such as “washing hands before performing surgery is good actually”
Yep, this is the guy who might be able to teach me something. The rest of then would be used to talking to their peers, which I am not.
Feynman’s way overrated, though. Sure, he was a smart enough guy to land a job on Manhattan project and university prof afterwards, but the only reason people know him are the books written by batshit crazy groupies (he didn’t write any) and based on his elderly ramblings, so none of the stories in those are even remotely true.
I was going to say Feynman for the same reason. Outside his classes it sounds like the guy was a lot of fun to be around.
