For your light entertainment pleasure this evening be sure to tune into The Rush on Shaw TV.

We talk about Lego, Lady Gaga, and why Chewbacca is the coolest Star Wars character.

It will be showing at 10:00 tonight (Wednesday) on Shaw TV.

There is also a live stream that has extra footage and shows the entire interview.

thanks for posting the time stamp Pierre. I started watching from the beginning thinking this was a short video. 45 minutes in I found myself wanting to inflict serious pain on these hosts.

Great job Paul. You did a great job with the inverview .
I was surprised you kept a straight face when the co host mentioned his favorite toy. wow

I guess Robin Dunne is someone famous as he's on the list of celebrities for Fan Expo Vancouver. I just looked him up and he was on a sci-fi show called Sanctuary and was married to actress Heidi Lenhart, who played the sister Jenny Garrison on the 90's teen NBC sitcom California Dreams.

The YouTube video is up and it's also on our VLC front page with a few photos from the Twitter feed.

Thanks for posting the links Pierre :lol:

Robin and Fiona were really great, as well as the crew. They made me feel very comfortable, even though I was just a bit nervous. Robin is a really funny guy, and kept the interview from getting too serious. Fiona kept it moving along, and everyone was really into the Lego creations. I had lots of questions afterwards about how things worked and how do I come up with these ideas. I tried to mention the VLC quite a few times and plugged the website at the end.

Yeah, that's why I want to do member profiles (for those who want them) and interviews so we can share this type of information with people that want to know. Basically a page where you can do and share whatever you like. Flickr and Brickshelf links or whatever. The content will be decided by the member. I'll assist, if you're stuck as to what you want up there.

While we appreciate publicity, this was your interview and about you. It's great that you got the website in there and on screen.

We did have a small spike in traffic yesterday, but it could be the tweets about the interview and the monthly showcase.

Very cool Paul!


It is nice to see the attention that LEGO is getting these days. Now more people can understand our hobby (addiction :lol: )
