Behind the Scenes - Uncoolest Hollywood Report

I have received a lot of requests for a behind-the-scenes look at the Uncool Hollywood report so here goes. Here is a partial list of the things sitting behind me when I shoot those reports:

A large map of Carroll County, MD from the 1800's (reproduction). A caricature of my wife that she gave me for Christmas many years ago. A pile of CD's I never look at and I never will again. An old Sidekick v.1 that doesn't work and has buttons missing. A pile of scripts. An old school crank pencil sharpener and an electric one. A desktop heater. An HO-scale train car with fake wood pallets. A stack of old hotel keys. A picture of William and Jack (my sons) when they were very young. A checkbook from a closed account. A cassette tape with the only copy of my rap album DJ JOHNNY CUTS BUTCHHEAD "2 Tons of Fun". A picture of a spaceship I drew when I was a kid. A pile of Monopoly games. A stack of Ben Franklin 1963 half-dollars in a container. An old disk drive that doesn't work and has nothing on it anyway. A microphone from my tape recorder when I was a kid.

And some other stuff...

Behind the Scenes: 1,000,000 BC Production of "Evil Twin"

Hangin' out with my new best friends: me, myself and I.

As the song says, "We like the same clothes, we like the same shows, we like to go to bed at the same time..."  Fortunately, both Jeff AND Jeff were available the same day to shoot the latest Rhodes Boys production of 1,000,000 BC "Evil Twins", the grand finale of the 1,000,000 BC series.  

The creators are hinting that episode seven may be the last we see of the 'professor' and his 'assistant' for the near future.  "We've had at least 150, maybe 160 people watch 1,000,000 BC so it's time to rest the franchise," explains co-executive producer/caterer Jeffrey Rhodes.

Co-executive producer Jordan Rhodes was more succinct, "School starts soon."

Touche.
