Way back in 2009, I wrote my first blog post about what I predicted was positioning itself to be the first internet talk show to break out of the geekdom and bring in a main stream audience.  In less than a year, Kevin Pollak’s Chat Show has attracted a line up of top notch guests spanning the full range of the entertainment spectrum (see below for the full list) and Pollak has proven himself  to be a consummate host. He possesses the rare talent to put his guests at such ease that we learn more about them, and the entertainment industry, than I have ever seen on traditional television or in print.

Pollak does in depth interviews with his guests, many surpassing the two hour mark, but has yet to enter into the “What tree are you?”/”How did it feel when your dog died?”  Barbara Walters style of interviewing.  The tone is laid back, lighthearted and intimate.  The guests are relaxed and open and uninterrupted.

In light of the recent round of TV talk show wars, Kevin Pollak’s Chat Show stands out as an example of the excellence that can be achieved when the networks are bypassed and talented people are left to do what they do best- entertain.

And, apparently, I’m not the only one that’s taken notice.  Kevin Pollak’s Chat Show has been nominated for three Streamy awards this year, the highest honor that currently exists for internet based content, including a nom for Pollak as best web series host.

Congratulations to Kevin and his on air cohorts Jaime Fox and Samm Levine and to director Mike Rotman and the top notch crew!

Check out the show at http://kevinpollakschatshow.com where you can watch live or catch up on past episodes.  The spiffy new site is jammed packed with other fun stuff as well.  Put aside an hour just to play the neat interactive features.

Kevin Pollak’s Chat Show, or #kpcs for the hashtag crowd, will be celebrating it’s one year anniversary this Sunday, March 21 at 3pm PDT.  There promises to be a great line-up of previous guests and as always an live chat room where you can join in the fun.

Today the top Trending Topic is “No God’. That got me going for at least two hours worth of tweets, some of the funniest wing nut @replies I ever got and a follow by the amazing @TheBlogess.

I do not have a short attention span and I like blogging. I like any kind of writing. But there is something amazingly addicting about shooting off a one liner and getting 20 immediate responses. The only thing I can compare it to is my one ill fated encounter with a crack pipe.

The first zinger I tweet in the morning is so sweet, I chase it the rest of the day,

I’m counting this as a blog post. I’m going to try to do better.
