Buffett collaborating with Katie Couric?

Post by ejr »

Watching my local news in Chicago, and the ABC Station had an interview with Katie Couric, who is promoting her show that debuts this fall. She was at last night's concert (they showed her backstage with Jimmy, and practicing part of a dance routine with Tina), who she described as one of her favorite people. She said they are working on a project--YOLO--You Only Live Once, and it sounds like it is going to make it possible for people to do something on their bucket list--not a lot of detail, but she was pretty clear that he was going to be involved in this.

He mentioned on Bing and Bong that he was getting involved in something new...this could be it

Thanks for posting the video--I first posted this immediately after it aired live, and could not get the video on the ABC website at that point.

Thats a terrible idea.

I realize that most on here are not up on the new urban dictionary. YOLO is the douchest word to come along in years.

Just google people screaming YOLO or youtube it. Katie is about 2 years to late for that word and making videos. You'll find stories of parents getting their kids from the principal office for starting food fights and yelling YOLO, to the worst which is Douche bags borderline assaulting girls for their buddies while yelling "YOLO"

It's not like they're going to be cutting a duet together or anything.

IIRC, whenever Jimmy played the Today show Katie was always a big fan of Cheeseburger in Paradise. Never say never. :D

It could be worse. He could be recording with Lionel Richie or Bret Michaels. Oh, wait...

The duet. Katie, like Lionel Richie, is looking to get back on people's radar. I'll bet a cd with all her Today Show concert series friends is already in the works. :o

If they could mute her voice, I'd listen.

NOT a fan of cutie Katie. Never liked her interaction with Jimmy asking him to "sing that cheeseburger song".

I'd rather have him involved in writing - songs and stories!

So, what if MY bucket list includes meeting Jimmy? Can I and several other thousand parrotheads submit that??
