My New Show "Rat Race" Has A Trailer And Premieres Tomorrow
Even though our office is in the greatest city in the world, I feel we don't use New York City enough. I've been doing these NYC Facts for about a year now and thought it would be fun to integrate those ideas with the rest of the office. Owen and Booz helped me make the idea a reality and the first episode drops tomorrow.
One thing we wanted to do was make it (at least initially) just a one episode commitment. You'll see the entire race play out in the episode tomorrow. I think it's fast paced and pretty fun.
How the show works is there are 5 teams that will get clues that lead them to a NYC monument. The last team to get there will be eliminated. This process repeats until we get a final winner. I will also be taking a mode of transportation away at each leg of the race (including the first one):
I love the teams that we got to play:
Fiancees: Marty Mush and Ria
Sisters: Fran and Gia
Sworn Enemies: Tommy Smokes and Meek Phill
Twisted History: Vibbs and Large
Three Stooges (team of three with brainpower of two): Dana Beers, Hubbs and Doogs
Everyone pushed like crazy to win this thing. Even the cameramen (who all busted their ass as well) had trouble keeping up. Hopefully if this goes well, we can do a bunch more of these. I'd love to do more episodes where we keep some of these teams and mix in some different ones too.
I don't want to give anything else away but please check it out tomorrow and let us know what you think. It was a blast to do so I hope you guys like it as well.
