That’s where we were headed. It happened at a period of time where I had to leave for a bit. Luckily, Shawn had been doing it with me all that time, so it was a seamless thing. I stepped out, did what I needed to do, but that team has killed it. They’ve really created a show where you can really say that’s the next generation of stars.”

We need more experience, need to professionalize this a little bit to make the product to where fans want to see that. We got them to that place. The pandemic (messed) it up a little bit because it was right when we went on TV and we had to completely altered what we were doing. We couldn’t recruit or train talent for almost two years but the show stayed. Then we said, OK, let’s reboot it and go back to what we originally were.”
