Doing interviews with live east-coast news shows is one of the few downsides to living on the west coast. I got up at 5:30 this morning to do the show, which airs in morning drive time out east.
At least it was radio, so I could stay in my jammies and do the show on the phone from my living room. I did CNN's "American Morning" a couple years back and had to get dressed and go to the network's studios in Hollywood at 5 am for that one. (Appearing awake while on TV at that hour should have earned me some sort of acting award.)
In a less-than-10-minute segment you've gotten pick and choose. For example, we didn't even get to any money-saving tips, which usually is standard in these sorts of interviews.
I could do a half-hour show on the topic every week and not run out of stuff for a looong while!
But not at 5:30 am. ;-)
"Busch Gardens America will probably end up in Dubai" - great line, Mr. Niles!
May be putting my ignorance on display, but I didn't know the bit about Six Flags' origin - very informative!
