HAPPY PREMIERE, EVERYBODY!

Well everybody, the first ever episode of Up Late with Will Rogers is officially up on YouTube in all it's grainy glory. Part 1 is the monologue, Part 2 is the guest segment!

You can find Part 1 here:

And here's Part 2:

In the course of the episode, during a stupid segment, I manage to thank Kristen and Allie, but the truth is that I have several more people who really deserve my thanks and gratitude, including, but not limited to:

Mike Costa, who designed every logo for the show

Bobby Koester, who is the funniest guy I know, and who makes this first episode great

Sarah Becker, Dan Kasinec, and Tommy Becker, for being my first ever audience

Mike Schin for going insane during the monologue

And even though I DID thank them in the episode, I seriously need to thank Allie Palmer and Kristen Rogers for not calling me an idiot when I told them I wanted to do this show, and for then pretty much doing everything for me.

Whew, I'm so happy this episode is over. Time to get started editing episode 2 and planning episode 3.

Expect some bonus footage from Bobby's interview in the coming week, and look out for Episode 2 featuring Allie Palmer NEXT Wednesday.

Please be sure to give the video a thumbs up if you liked it, and DON'T hit the "thumbs down" button if you didn't!

And now I'm going to watch the most important 11:00 talk show: Conan.
