What a week it’s been! On Tuesday David Ortiviz, a multi-media journalist with our local NBC affiliate TV channel, brought his camera to my home office and filmed our “Alfred Hitchcock Tribute" as I sat by my computer hosting the Movie Addict Headquarters radio show via telephone.

Turns out that David is a Hitchcock fan, so he even participated in the show! A creative video clip of this event was shown on NewsFirst5 that evening as well as Wednesday morning.

Also on Wednesday, Philip Recchia, who is BlogTalkRadio's Director of Programming, posted a terrific report of my latest TV adventure on the BTR Blog. Phil referred to me as “B-Jo” – and now I’m stuck with that show-biz moniker, but I love it.

Both the NewsFirst5 TV coverage and the BlogTalkRadio article resulted in many positive comments which I’ve gladly spent the rest of the week responding to. Thanks to David, Phil and everyone who sent me congratulations. However, I'm convinced the people really responsible for the success of Movie Addict Headquarters are my producer extraordinaire Nikki Starr and my excellent co-host Jazz Shaw plus our great guests, loyal chatters and listeners.

To view the TV video clip and read the BlogTalkRadio article, click on “Movie Addict Headquarters” below.
