I’m in New York City all week to promote the new season. Last night, we had a launch party for the new season at Terracycle’s pop-up store just off Times Square. For me, it’s incredibly gratifying to have that kind of party and reconnect with so many people in the green movement that have played a role in getting me to this point.
It’s corny, but I remember a friend’s wedding a number of years ago that was held at the Mandarin Oriental hotel here in Manhattan in the banquet room, which had a commanding view of the city’s skyline. I remember stepping outside for air with some friends and possibly for some form of extracurricular activity to enhance the evening though I can’t fully recall. As I looked out on the view, I remember thinking that one day I’ll make my mark here in this city.
I know it’s cheesy, but I thought about that last night during the party as I gave a little speech thanking everyone for being there. I never predicted this future for myself. I never imagined I’d produce and host a television show. But here I am and I’m really proud of the work we’ve done on this season.
So check out the show tonight at 8pm on Sundance Channel. Here are some links to press we’ve received about season 2. So far the reviews are very favorable. I think our message is hitting at the right cultural moment.
