Our First Episode by Rob on October 13, 2008

Today is a very big day in this start-up’s history. The first episode of our show is now available on our front video page, and I couldn’t be prouder. We spent many long days and sleepless nights pulling this together, and to see that work finally materialize into a product is a feeling I could never adequately describe.

Episode 1 establishes the cast of the show and solidifies a few of our core principals: friendship, responsibility, and empowerment. You see our house, me moving out with Sonya, and the relief of leaving the place behind. You see the excitement and obviuos anxiety during our long trip. More than all of these though, I hope we communicate just why we are doing this.

It’s always nerve-racking to see yourself on film. I look painfully tired as I explain that Sonya is leaving; my posture is terrible in the interviews; I should have worn a nicer shirt. It’s easy to be too self-critical. I have noticed, nonetheless, that after 20 hours of filming a week, you stop carefully controlling your appearance. Looking at this episode, I can’t help but think of how many times I appear on camera immediately after waking up, or in any of a number of embarrassing states of dress. Jed is one powerful man.

I hope you all enjoy this episode, and we look forward to bringing you more. As always, please leave comments.
