Media Attention.

The interview on WCCO for Overheard happened last night, at the State Fair. It’ll be on the news tonight, August 31st at 10pm. I’m certain that I’m a total idiot on camera.

We walked around the fairgrounds, trying to eavesdrop on people, but it’s difficult in such a densely packed area, because all we could really hear was the murmur of the crowd, rather than distinct voices and words. However, there were several times we heard, “I want to be on the news!” as people drifted around us trying to get in front of the camera.

One girl passed by Jason and said, “Hey, I watch you every morning on the news!” Technically, that could be an overheard, because Jason isn’t on the news every morning, but perhaps only a select group would get the joke.

We stopped and talked to the Princesses (yeah, I don’t know either) in their colorful cowboy boots, and expanded the readership a little more. They let me know that I’ll see a lot of their submissions on the site, because they hear a lot of stupid shit. Awesome. That’s what I’m here for, ladies.

I was busted on camera with a post-it notepad that I took from work, because I was in a hurry and misplaced my normal notepad, but I brought it back this morning, I swear!

So tune in tonight, and see what kind of dumbass I can be when there’s a camera 5 inches from my face. Seriously, the camera is that close. It makes it hard to “act normal.” And see how I answer this question: “Will you ever run out of material?”

Update: Um, well, I guess I don’t know if or when it’ll run.
Update v2.: It ran Friday, the 1st at 5:00pm.
