First Episode of the New Prime Time Italian TV show! (Patreon)

I've just about got settled into Italy and the first live episode has already aired! You can watch the full, almost two and a half hour, episode here. I think you'll have to make a free Rai account (RAI is like the American NBC channel). Or you can watch the segments on YouTube below. PLEASE throw some kind comments on there. This new show has been greeted with hostility online but the producers tell me there's a bit of politics I don't fully understand. Apparently this is a new format so it's already difficult for people to grab onto in the first episode. It's also government funded and Italians are a little disgruntled with some of the choices made by the Parliament so they are taking it out on this show on social media. Us American's wouldn't understand being frustrated with out government (jk jk that was a joke). But also... I am a bit of a rabble rouser and I'm sure there are millions of citizens who just flat out hate that I was on the show lol. But strap in... there's more where that came from. I've been making updates on the insta close friends but I know many of you are not seeing those. If you'd like to see BTS, message me so we can work that out!

The intro to me includes my voice re-dubbed in ai so that I'm speaking perfect Italian, which is crazy because I was doing such a bad job at memorizing Italian phrases. They said for the next episode I will have to do less english! Then the caterpillar did his thing. I broke a rib in rehearsal so I'm not super proud of my jumps/falls- I was holding back. The next animal was the chicken. They thought it would be funny if I kept coming back as different names, so they called me "Mario" the chick. I'm not super into this idea, I think it's funnier if it's just me who keeps sneaking on. However, the way the show works, there has to be a moment where the judges don't know who it is (that's the part where they play the Ghostbusters theme lol) The producers didn't want the Talent Catchers to "choose" me before the act starts. They think one of the celebrities would catch me if they new it was Sethward.

Check out the clips and let me know what you think of this inanity! I'll be sending out postcards to patreoners on any tier who wants one this weekend! Also send me any Rome recommendations or video ideas, I'd like to shoot some short films while I'm here, either around and about this ancient city or backstage!
