Thanks to being on the front page of YouTube, Joe's 'March Madness' video has been viewed over 225,000 times. From there it got noticed by a Canadian TV show called 'Torrent' that wants to air it along with an interview of Joe. They asked him to record himself answering a short list of questions, and send them the footage.

Joe wanted to shoot the interview with all of Otis, but only Hedges (left), Marc and I were able to show up. We wandered around Piper's Alley trying to come up with interview location ideas on the fly, but none of them quite worked out. The elevator was too dark. The escalator was too dangerous.

Joe: The Otis elevator company makes escalators too.
Me: Oh, I didn't get that. Otis. Otis.

Finally we gave up.

Marc: Maybe you should just shoot a video of yourself at home.
Me: It'll be easier for them to edit and, frankly, you deserve it. It's your video, you should take the credit.
Joe: Yeah, but I just want it to be an Otis thing.
