BURLINGTON, ON
My friend James Burchill, the shameless self-promoter and Master of the Side Hustle has a new gig.
He takes people out for a drive in his neat little Smart Car and does a video interview with his passenger.
The camera is mounted on the dashboard.
Mayor explaining the honorific that should be used when he is being addressed.
The come on James uses is the cup of coffee he is going to buy you; I’ve yet to see anyone with a cup of coffee in their hands.
The interviews run for about six to seven minutes; there have been a few that are actually memorable.
There is one coming up – it will be “premiered” on Friday.
James convinced the Mayor to take the drive. The really short clip is HERE. The Mayor comes across as a much more relaxed guy on this video. Rock Goldring has this need to use his hands to make his point – when he isn’t doing that he holds them in front of him so they don’t get away.
But in the front passenger seat of a car there isn’t much he can do with his hands so he has to rely on facial expressions and so we get to see a different Rick Goldring.
It really is worth watching.
The full interview will be shown on Friday.
