I don’t watch much TV, but I occasionally get drawn into a Reality series. This is very true of Beauty and the Geek. I can’t help it. I’m a Geek! Did you know that they wanted me to appear on the show… twice?

A couple of years ago, I got a phone call from someone who worked for the show, asking me if I’d like to appear as a contestant. Apparently, the person had seen some of the videos I had done, and thought I’d be good on the show. I thanked them, but let them know I was indeed married. It was a cool offer, though!

Fast forward to now. I received an email from a Producer of the show, saying he had seen my videos on YouTube, and again thought I’d be a great candidate for the show! It’s a different person than before, and a couple of years later. I was flattered, but couldn’t help laughing. I had to explain that I am now married to Ponzi, who is the epitome of “hot wife”. I live Beauty and the Geek on a daily basis, and even stream it live. The Producer laughed as well, then asked if I know of anyone else who may be interested in auditioning…

Hmmmmm the light bulb inside my brain went off! What about all of you out there? Have you considered auditioning? Here are the basic requirements for auditioning and/or being on the show:

• You must be at least 21 years of age (I know I said 18 in the video, as I was writing this up, I found the correct information on their site)
• You must be a US Citizen or permanent resident
• You must not be a candidate for public office and must agree not to become one until at least one (1) year after the initial broadcast of the Program.
• Neither you nor any member of your immediate family or anyone living in your household may be or may have been within the past two (2) years an employee, officer, director or agent of any show producers, networks that may air the program, sponsors of the program, or involved in show prodcution in any way.
• You will need to be available to the production for approximately four weeks or possibly longer, and you must be willing to reside in a location to be designated by Producers.
• If selected as a semi-finalist, you must be willing to submit medical information to the production and submit to a medical examination, psychological examination, and background checks.

So, if you feel you meet the above requirements, and are interested in being a contestant… leave me a follow-up VIDEO comment on the YouTube channel. I just may email the Producer back and recommend you!
