The Man Team

As a producer for Team B, I can say confidently that things could have been much, much worse than how they actually turned out. I was trembling going into the recording studio for the 3:55 cast, mainly because there were things I thought I hadn't reviewed thoroughly enough with my anchor Ranbir. So I had a bad feeling going in.

However, things went very smooth, much to my amazement and relief. Jameson had his wrap done in plenty of time, and Gino came through in the clutch by getting his on to a cart a mere 90 seconds before air time. As for Ranbir, a raspy voice wasn't going to hold him back from getting through the cast triumphantly. In the end, things turned out pretty damn good considering there was a lot of scrambling toward the end of the day.

I actually conducted a phoner myself, talking to an associate professor at the University of Dayton about the upcoming holiday season. She explained that because of the recent toy recalls, parents should emphasize spending more time with their kids this season than spending more money on toys. She also said parents should look to buy more American-produced toys because of the recalls, since they are more likely to be safer for children.
