Interviewing Sean

Today Jenni and I interviewd Sean Becker (director/editor) of the second Season of The Guild for an upcoming episode of Knights of the Guild, our new official fan podcast for the webseries The Guild. We had a great time, it was suppose to be a 15 to 20 minute interview but turned into a 50 minute interview... it's was a fun time.. thanks Sean.

New Shoes

Today I went shoe shopping with Harry and Dad. Well we went to Famous Footwear in Corona and I found these very cool shoes. I showed them to Dad and Harry and they both laughed and thought I was kidding. Harry said they looked like his boxer shorts. They continued to make fun of them but I liked them and thought they looked fun and quirky like me so I bought them.. what do you think??

Heroes is Back

Tonight there was a new Heroes after there holiday break. This was the beginning of Volume Four Fugitives. This wasn't an OMG episode with big effects or anything like that. But it was a good set up episode to kick off this new volume. I like where they are taking the story. I know alot of folks have given up on Heroes, but I for one have been enjoying every episode. Can't wait to see where this story goes.

KOTG Episode 1 First Pass

After our hike to the MASH set. I had some spare time so I did my first pass on my new podcast Knights of the Guild. We are still missing two interviews and some bumpers but the show really flowed well together. I'm really excited to get our first episode done.

Visiting the M*A*S*H Set

Harry is a huge MASH fan and I became one because of him so today he and I went to Malibu Canyon Park to visit the MASH set. We had gone to the park before to go hiking and saw signs that stated that MASH was filmed there. We always wanted to go back but never seemed to find the time. Well the day before while watching MASH I told him we should go and visit the MASH set. So the next day we got up and headed over. The park is about 20 minutes away and when we got there we really didn't know where to start. We walked back to where we saw the first sign. We then say that in order to get to the site you had to hike 2.3 miles. Well I haven't worked out in over a year and am really out of shape.. but 2.3 miles didn't sound bad so we started. About a mile in the sun was shining down and I was starting to hurt. The hike starts off on a dirt road and then steadily goes up a hill and then down. You then start walking along side a mountain on a thin trail with mountain on one side and a creek on the other. Alot of this road is filled with rocks, looks like the bottom of a riverbed. Well after about an hour and a half we got to the site.

We knew there wasn't going to be much. A burnt out jeep and a rusted over ambulance. But it was still fun to stand there and try to picture where everything was. Of course the easiest was the helo-pad as it's overgrown with bushes but it's still there.

We hung out there for about a half hour, debating where Rosie's bar was or the sign welcoming people to the 4077. We took pictures and video to capture the experience.

Once we had our fill we headed back. The hike back wasn't that bad until the very end where I was getting hungry and my blood sugar dropped.. but we made it back to the jeep and then headed home... and of course we were both super sore. But it was well worth the pain to see where they filmed one of our most favorite TV shows.
