Recreating Oregon in North Carolina: A Quick TV Show Update

In a little over two weeks I'll be flying out to Charlotte, NC to film all the introductory and in-between bits for the Un-Road Trip TV show. We're recreating my house in Portland, OR in a studio in Charlotte, NC where I'll be hosting the show from. Pretty crazy! They've hired DPs and set dressers and gaffers- this is going to be the biggest production I've ever been involved in. I'm collecting various Oregon mementos and souvenirs to place around the set to make it look a little more authentic. And I'm trying to include some fun details on the set and in my outfits since I always like catching that stuff when I watch TV shows. If anyone has any ideas let me know. I'll be taking a ton of photos and video to put up here and also to create some behind-the-scenes featurette for the eventual DVD. Who knows when I'll have my next TV show so I've got to make the most of this!

Bring some empty burgerville cups to distribute behind you on the set. It'll look like you just had a summer strawberry shake run!
