One Great Season
CINCINNATI -- I once tried to start a line of sportswear about a dozen years ago.
I always kept a box of hats and shirts in the trunk of my car, because you just never know who you might see walking across the Roebling Suspension Bridge as you're driving by on a busy weekday afternoon.
But despite a hectic traffic scene, I pulled off to the side when I spotted FOX19 anchor Rob Williams, popped the trunk, grabbed a shirt and introduced myself to the local celebrity and gave him the shirt, hoping he'd rock it at the gym and give me a little brand recognition.
Like many of my hair-brained schemes over the years, however, make*a*move failed as a line of sportswear, but what did succeed was my ability to stay in touch with people, and Rob was gracious enough to offer to interview me when I sent him my pitch via email last week.
So here's Tuesday's interview with Rob Williams. You can tell I'm getting more comfortable with these otherwise nerve-wracking events, as I can only count one and a half nose twitches during the entire segment.

That is the most subdued I have ever seen John P. Wise. "Do you have any Irish in you?......"
John that is awesome! I love Rob Williams! Always watched them when we lived there!
Good interview. Was your zen-ness an attempt to offset Rob's speed-talking and keep the interview at a reasonable pace? Everytime I hear that guy talk I feel fatigued afterward.
Wow, did somebody really drop Ken Reeves on me? That is nice. Sincerely, Coolidge
