  • Scooper “Amy” has an outstanding summary today, in her words, of what transpired with Kevin’s Atlanta press junket today — Looks like she covered most of what was aired, and quite well at that, so we’ll let her take it away with her report:
Kevin just got off the air on Atlanta and Company after doing a string of radio interviews.

Kev was on 96 Rock from 7:30 till 8:06. The Regular Guys were into Kevin and discussed more about making movies in general. Superman was a main topic…covering Kevin’s script and all the others left in the hollywood wake of the many versions of Superman. Kevin took a look at one of Larry’s movies and gave an honest (of course) critique. There wasn’t a lot of Clerks 2 chatter, but it was a good warm up for the rest of the morning. To listen to the segment, go to: www.96rock.com

The next stop was a stroll down the hall to another Clear Channel station, 105.3 The Buzz (interview from 8:10 till 8:24). It was obvious that Whip and the rest of the Buzz staff were fanboys. They did a much better job getting into more View Askew news. They chatted about Mewes and Affleck–while avoiding the current Boston sillyness.

The next stop was CNN. I caught the promo for the interview with Adrianna, but missed the interview (my damn job got in the way). I did tape an hour of CNN Headline news and if I got the interview on tape I will send more info on later.

The last live appearance for the day was on Atlanta and Company, a daily news/entertainment show. Firfer, who is also a morning DJ on DaveFM did a great job. She was very well versed in all things Askew. I do hope that this interview will be available online somewhere. Firfer did ask about the possibility of Clerks 3 as a look at the 40 something life of Dante and Randal. Kev said that if he’s got something to say about being 40 when the time comes he’d love to see where our other favorite duo would be in their 40s. Kev chatted about each of the movies and it was great to see that Firfer actually knew about each of the movies and the characters. There was some funny moments about the lack of ability to get laid in Pittsburgh (referring to Damon and Affleck and their timing of the Oscar and filming Dogma). Kev got even funnier when he spoke of his wedding and the “sumo wrestler” type sex that may have happened while at the Skywalker Ranch when Jennifer ! was 8 months pregnant. I’m sure he won the hearts of all geeks mentioning the idea of an R2-D2 filled honeymoon.

We thank her for the excellent report! Next stop tomorrow is Toronto, Canada. Great city. We’re sure he’ll have some more fantastic press up there, and we’ll of course have the coverage right here! See you then.
