Nice! Any idea if this is being broadcast in WI anywhere? (I’m in La Crosse)

Look forward to seeing it either on their website or perhaps a YouTube recording! Congrats! First of many media appearances I’m sure!!

Hey Trent this is Molly Nelson the reporter that came to your house today.
I just wanted to let you know that your story will likely air in a short version during out 5 pm news and in a longer version during our 10 pm news.
Thanks for letting us interview you today.

Awesome, Trent! For you, I shall watch the news (I usually don’t) Congrats!!

Cool! Good job, hope someone youtubes it.

They just posted the link on the kcci website. Really don’t know how long they keep these though.

Congratulations!! Will be checking out your book come payday…

I’m in Europe. Somebody set up a torrent or something please. :)

I can’t wait! Please post a link if you can since I am not in Iowa.
Thanks!

Contact the news station, ask them to rip you a copy, most will with probably dropping a watermark on it for additional coverage for them.

Congratulations

You gotta see the new Star Trek movie, since some of it takes place in Iowa…

I am in central Iowa. I watch KCCI all the time, can’t wait to see it.

The news bit excited me about getting things in order. Made it sound attainable and not hopeless.

Thanks

Trent, Congrats man, I do have to laugh though, your posts are like clockwork normally, and as I would imagine you were pretty excited about this upcoming event and posted at an “off scheduled” time, I don’t know why it’s funny but it is, either way AWESOME, you rock man, keep up the GREAT work!!!

Trent,
I’m regularly following you blog. Eventhough I’m not living in Iowa, I’d like to watch your show. Can you please post us the list once it is uploaded in the web?

Wow, congrats! I was most impressed that your site gets 1 million visits a day (noted on top of the story linked to above.) You’re rockin’!!!!!

Trent,

Congrats on your success! 1 million hits a day is amazing. Keep up the great work.

Congrats Trent! Keep up the good work and thank you for writing this blog, it keeps me motivated to continue to live a frugal lifestyle.

The video can be found directly at this link:

It should be there indefinitely, assuming the editors don’t physically remove it from the database.

Congratulations! I hope you get more media exposure. I’ll look up the link that Tessa posted after I’m home tonight.

I certainly hope it will be available via video for those of us who don’t live in Iowa. Kudos, Trent!

For those of you who haven’t noticed, you can see a video of the piece. Here’s how:

1. Go to the link suggested above:

http://www.kcci.com/money/19422676/detail.html

2. Scroll down and look on the right sidebar. About one page now there’s a tab that says “most read” on it and “Huxley Man Shares Money-Saving Advice” is listed as one of the options.

3. At the end of that listing, there’s a little TV camera. Click on that, and the video starts to play above.

At least that’s how I got to see it — not sure it will work for everyone and how long it will be up.

Wonderful spot on the news. Here’s the URL for the article/video on the website

Even though I no longer have an address in Central Iowa, it was great to see that KCCI covered you.

KCCI-TV has now posted the video on their website. It is on this page:

Folks must have contacted the station and asked for the video to be posted. But, please! Don’t call and “ask them to rip you a copy”. In this day and age there are no warm bodies sitting around television stations with that kind of free time.

Hey Trent,

You even managed to get the energy efficient light bulbs mentioned! Kudos.

Trent –

Hey, it’s been quoted in the press — that makes it a fact, right? :-)

If I had a penny for every fact a writer, TV reporter, etc. got wrong I’d be a ba-zillionaire. Just makes you wonder at the accuracy of much of the news we all receive.

Just watched it – you did fine! (It’s not easy being on camera!) But you did learn from this, right? Don’t wear striped/checkered shirts on camera ;)

I’m with Stephanie – 1. You did great! Youd din’t seem nervous at all. 2. yeah, no checkered shirts on camera. ;)

Ahhh yeah! Way to go. I liked hearing what your voice sounded like. I can put a voice to the writing now. My only comment is that when you were being interviewed in your backyard you swayed from side to side a bit. Plant your feet. relax your shoulders, and stay still.
