A Talk Show Filmed in a Moving Car

Posted by Andrew Hearst

The weekly videoblog DriveTime is a talk show with an excellent gimmick: It’s filmed during the work commute of the host, Ravi Jain, who lives in a suburb of Boston. I found out about the show because my very cool and charismatic friend Dennis Crowley was a guest recently. Dennis is the founder of Dodgeball, a free service that combines MySpace-style social networking and cellphone-based text messaging.

The format of the show, from the pre-guest chatter to the depositing of the guest at the curb at the end of the interview, is totally inspired. In this episode Jain’s wife plays the role of the sidekick, and their banter is pretty entertaining. Check it out.
