I'm happy to report I've added another great show to the list of programs I've been asked to appear on. This one is called Twin Cities Live and is based out of, you guessed it, Minneapolis/St Paul. It's a really fun, easy talk show, with great hosts who were very nice to work with. Whenver I go on a new show, I never know if the hosts are going to play nice with me or not. It can be a bit awkward, but John and Elizabeth were super welcoming. Unfortunately their site doesn't let me embed, but you can link to the segment by clicking on the still photo below:
Now for some behind the scenes. First off, all the clothing was being shipped in via Fed Ex, and was supposed to be arrive the day before we shot this segment, but there were big storms in the mid-west, and the box got sidelined in Indianapolis. Now, I don't know if any of you have ever dealt with FedEx in situations like this, but it can be trying to say the least. Fortunately I've been in this situation a bunch of times before, so I whipped Fed Ex into shape, and the package arrived a few hours before the segment.
The next issue was arose when my producer, the lovely Melissa, wanted me to hold up a pair of the black pants I was talking about before the models came out wearing them. Problem was I only had enough pants for all five models, no extras. So, we decided I would hold up the pants to talk about, and then pass them off to the producer after the camera went to the first model, so she could rush the pants to the last model who was standing off stage pants-less. Well I wasn't totally sure when the camera had moved off of me, so if you pay attention you can see me throwing the pants off to Melissa's waiting arms for Tracy, our last model, to put on. Fortunately, other than that minor flub, it all worked out.
