My Appearance on tpt’s Almanac

I was asked to sit on the media panel for the April 8, 2011 episode of Twin Cities Public Television’s Almanac, the longest running current events tv show in Minnesota. Also sitting in were my buddy Julio Ojeda-Zapata, tech reporter extraordinaire from the St. Paul Pioneer Press, and John Rash of the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

Video of my segment is here.

Julio, being the tech guy, snagged a copy of the video and uploaded it to YouTube, which I will embed here.

You really should click through and also watch the bonus web-only segment in which we play a little game called “Technology Hot Potato.”

Everything about this experience was so great. I got to meet John and chat with him and Julio before our segment. Cathy Wurzer and Eric Eskola and all the staff at tpt were super friendly and encouraging. I’d love to do it again if they’ve got an opening. I owe this one to John Daenzer. I met him when he worked at WCCO; he’s now the VP of Interactive Media at tpt. Thanks for the opportunity, John!

    Thanks for joining us, Erica! The folks here at Twin Cities Public Television thought you were a great addition to the discussion. We’re all grateful that you joined us.

    Thanks, also, for the shout-out on our new little post-show web-only bonus segment… It’s a fun little extra something we’re trying.

    Glad you had a great time!
