teddogRick Green? Is a cool guy in real life.
I got to help interview him today. We were dissing the quality of the first season of Prisoners of Gravity together. I didn't speak up too much, but I was honestly in awe for most of it and generally felt like a nervous wreck. I was totally made of fail. D:
There are things said in that interview that are... big and interesting things! Like...
- How he got the job hosting the series.
- The reasons why the first season Prisoners of Gravity is "lost" (I now feel bad for digging it up).
- The future of History Bites.
- The possible future of Prisoners of Gravity.
- Some goofy bits with Rick Green acting as Commander Rick. If they keep the full opening... OMG... it's SO over the top. Rick also did the "Prisoners of Gravity" rant from season one.
As soon as it's posted, I'll be linking it. This was the secret thing I was working on, although word had gotten out a couple of days ago. It was also one of my big life goals - those who know me know that Rick Green was my media hero since grade 5 and one of the reasons I decided to chase an education and job in media. Not to recreate his stuff, but to do cool crap like what he did and still does. :)
I've also been welcomed into the staff of This Week in Geek. Heaven help me, I have no idea what I have done.
How did this happen? A couple of weeks back, I got an email from Mike, one of the hosts, thanking me for my site and asking me if I wanted to involved with the interview. Turns out that he had visited my site waaaaay back when I was probably back in high school and was shocked at how much it had grown. So, this somehow spun off into me actually being on the phone during the interview. 0_0
I'm still pretty dazed.

That comment finally makes sense. As I understand it, the series MAY return in the same format that History Bites currently has taken; a series of TV specials.
