I actually sketched the camera they were using to film it (it was set up about two rows in front of me) before the panel started. Not sure how long they take to be posted online, but past Daily Show events are up on YouTube here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fnHcbQJiYM and can be bought on iTunes. Fingers crossed it won't be too long! Meanwhile, you can see the sketch I drew of the camera taping Truthiness Behind the Lines here, along with the signatures from Scardino and Drysdale: http://drawmo.wordpress.com/2009/11/08/hunchfront/ Yep, the interview was filmed!

I was dorking out about writing and posting this, so I'm really glad you all liked it. I've enjoyed all the recaps here from other lucky Zoners, so it was nice of DB to offer me a chance to give back. Ah, thanks so much for all the compliments guys.

Yay for the NFZ shout-out! I wonder, was the interview filmed, and if so, how long before it's posted on the Paley Center page on YouTube?

They had to make the official website better in order to keep up with you! So you are indirectly responsible for the great site they have now. How cool is that?! ...

Crazy! Tie! You’re Fired!”), when writing jokes about the Afghanistan elections he would have to first setup who Abdullah Abdullah was and that his brother was an opium trader before even getting to the joke." I like the point they are making, but I do hope people aren't getting their news from TCR, because it's Hamid Karzai's brother who's allegedly involved in the opium trade.

It's really great to read interviews from the writers of TCR - they do SUCH great work and it's nice to get a glimpse into how much work they put into the show. I also love the bit about how competitive The Daily Show/Jon is about their baseball games, haha. And what a great NFZ shout-out! :D Thanks for such an amazing recap!
