If anyone wants a good laugh at my expense or just to see what I look and sound like, my wife and I will be on My Lottery Dream Home this Friday night at 9pm on HGTV. We filmed it about 6 weeks ago and had an absolute blast. I'm sure I'll look like a bafoon on camera, but only several million people watch the show so I'm sure nobody will notice...
I still can't believe we did it and will be on the show so that in be on reruns in doctors office waiting rooms for eternity.
So Cool! Nah, you'll look awesome. Glad you did it.
Is your "lottery dream home" your new beach condo?
I set my dvr to record it.
I mean, there are definitely worse ways to end up on TV. 
That's awesome! HGTV shows are one of my guilty pleasures so ill keep an eye out on streaming platforms for your episode.

Yeah pretty much anytime you're on tv and not being lit by the spotlight from a helicopter you;re doing alright.
Looking forward to checking it out.
Oh, this sounds cool! We need to have a watch party now.
Super cool! We love that show and the host seems to be a genuinely nice human being! 😊

He really is. Energetic, funny and very personable. Very raw sense of humor.

Sadly, no garage at all. My old house had a barn that held four cars and a driveway that could hold six. Now I have one carport and one open parking space.

No offense, but that doesn't sound like much of a "dream home". 
Probably be the first time my wife will hear me say hey dear, let's watch HGTV tonight.....

Or being chased by the Arkansas State Police on Youtube... those never end well for the, ahem, "guest".
Recording......should be good!
Nice. My TV debut was decking a kid live on a kids TV program back in the mid 80s lol. I still have a VHS tape of it somewhere.
That was...weird. I kept thinking "Do I really look and sound like that?!?!". Insider notes... they didn't want me to wear sunglasses and my eyes are really sun sensitive so I squinted like crazy.
Was that single home really only 294k?
I was thinking, there was plenty of space in the backyard for toys :P
