Green Beer with Comedian Frank Nicotero and Beer Sommelier Chrstina Perozzi
It’s not all that often that I get to hang out with a professional beer sommelier. Such was my luck when I visited The Bruery, a craft brewery located in Orange County, CA. I was there on a mission to see whether I could convince comedian and avowed beer guzzler Frank Nicotero that beers brewed with an inherently smaller environmental footprint could taste crazy delicious. Author of The Naked Pint: An Unadulterated Guide To Craft Beer Chrstina Perozzi (see image below) was our tour guide. This beer chick is very persuasive. After several pints we were all tempted to get naked and probably would have had our television crew not been so bashful.
Testing an Electric Motorcyle for the TV Show
Man, I've been really caught up filming the show and have been slacking here. So now it's time to start reporting about it. Here's a pic from this past week in which Terrence Hayes, our awesome DP, is rigging a video camera to my helmet to get some POV shots while testing the Zero S electric motorcycle. I was trying to convince comedian Frank Nicotero to give up his sweet sweet BMW and turn instead to electric power. The Zero S tops out at about 70 mph and gets 40 miles to a charge so it's a pretty viable commuting option, and it's definitely fun to drive. At least, I thought so.

Filming Lazy Exterminator: Green Bugs & Pest Control with the Experts
We're not filming today or tomorrow as we prepare for our upcoming trip to Tucson next week. There will get into episodes such as Lazy Teenager, Lazy Camper and Lazy Daycare. On Wednesday will wrap up Lazy Exterminator and Lazy Makeup Artist. Both of those segments were particularly fun for me since neither eliminating rodents nor applying mascara falls into my daily routine.
The pic below is of me and our exterminator hero (on right) and our green exterminator expert (on left). Wearing that uniform, I felt surprisingly strong and competent, so I was disappointed to have to return it once the day was over.
Winning “Best Reality Show” at the Environmental Media Association Awards
At the 20th annual Environmental Media Association Awards "The Lazy Environmentalist" took home "best reality show" honors. Pretty big shakes for a show after just one season The event was held on the lot of Paramount Studios in Los Angeles.

We started filming season 2 today and got off to an excellent start. First up are Lazy Fashion Designer and Lazy Interior Decorator. They're both stellar. We've got some interesting wrinkles this year, most of which includes ratcheting up the energy level, taking on some big challenges to solve with green solutions, and providing a little more room for levity. I was a little rusty at first having not been on camera for about 9 months, but we found our groove pretty quickly. Looking forward to shooting more tomorrow.
