"33 Seconds With..." is a short interview with either local and national celebrities, or basically anyone you is interesting. Now before you get out your stop watch and actually TIME these, be aware that they don't necessarily run exactly thirty-three seconds. In fact, most aren't even close. We just thought it would be a really cool title for interviews you won't see everywhere else.
Here's how it works: We dream up about 15 unusual not too insulting questions, then pitch them rapid-fire to our guest celeb. They are not allowed to elaborate, as we don't want them to drone on and on. In most cases, they respond with a simple two or three word answer...think word association. Adding to the fun is the fact that they are not allowed to see the questions upfront. And there are no "do-overs".
The celebrity is allowed to say "Pass" if they'd prefer not to answer. But we WILL use the fact that they said "Pass" in their Q & A, so that YOU can give them grief about it, should you run into them at the grocery store.
If there's a local celeb that you have access to, or just want us to go after your fave, send us an email with their name, details, etc., and we'll do our best to corner them. We'll also need your name so we know who to blame when they get mad at us for bothering them.
