I can’t believe I still get the “TechEd is in Houston? Awww, what am I going to do in Houston during TechEd?”. I was kind of in that boat, since I had never been to Houston except once for an overnight and all I saw was the airport hotel and a training center. Let me tell ya – My perception of Houston has been completely changed after shooting The Countdown Show there a couple of months back. When I inquire about their opinions a bit further – the initial comment about Houston is inevitably clarified with a secondary statement that they’ve never been there and are going on someone else’s comments OR they have been there before – but a long time ago and didn’t find Houston all that appealing. hummm… same as me. I follow up and ask them if they’ve seen the Countdown Show episodes where Joey and I take you along a tour of our new favorite places in Houston. They inevitably answer no – so I have to get them to check them out AND subscribe to The Countdown Show in order to stay up to date. I got tired of sending them to multiple spots, so here is your ONE STOP SHOP for those videos and how to subscribe to The Countdown Show.
