- Hello, and good Friday, December 14-th, 2006
- I'm Joanne, and this is Rocketboom.
- Today, we're investigating an interesting story about a couple named Danny and Nina.
- So, to begin with, allow me to introduce them:
- Hi, I'm Danny and this is my girlfriend Nina.
- And, we're looking for the place to live.
- That's right. There's just one small problem:
- We don't know exactly where we want to move.
- So we had this crazy idea of letting you decide.
- Yes! You! We have a website.
- That's right, DannyandNina.com
- You can go there and choose from a list of 250 towns all across the United States.
- Yea, and vote for where we should move.
- All right, so they're looking to get 1 million votes for one city.
- Over 3/4 of a million so far for South Bend, Indiana.
- Denver is in second place.
- Hm, it looks like out of all the options only 25 people have voted for Ramapo.
- Well, I got the inside scoop that my German colleague Katrin has already done some research on this.
- So we decided to meet for tea.
- Hello Katrin, hey, how are you?
- Great! Und wie ist es bei Dir? Nice to hear from you.
- The pleasure is all mine.
- So tell me about Danny and Nina.
- Ok, In English? I'll try. In October we found the website of Danny and Nina, DannyandNina.com
- And we liked their idea and thought it was funny to play god.
- And how did the audience like the idea?
- Oh, they love it. Well, it turns out that we all voted for Plano.
- We mentioned it in a show, and since October, we tried to send them there.
- Why Plano? Have you already been there?
- No, but you know. Danny and Nina live in New York, big, busy...
- For a change we thought they need calmness, nature.
- And of course, it's a little bit nasty.
- Hm, Well if you're all going Plano, then I'm going Plano.
- Let's do this.
- So while I've got you here, I have another idea.
- We set up a page to translate Rocketboom into German each day and Ehrensenf into English.
- Oh no way! You could never translate us into English. No one would get it.
- Oh, come on, we should try it.
- Check this out: Anyone can come along and tweak the transcript, kind of like a wiki.
- So let's just leave it up to our audiences to work it out.
- If they can send Danny and Nina to Plano, surely they can understand both of our shows.
- Well, I guess it wouldn't hurt to try.
- Great. It's ready right now.
- Ok, well, back to work. You and I know this show biz is really tough. Am I right?
- Ok, Yeah, you know it's been pretty hectic around the newsroom for me today as well, so I should get going.
- Thank you for tea, Katrin.
- Goodbye, Joanne.
- So, before we wrap, I wanted to make a mention of all of the links.
- Check out all the links! Tomorrow is no exception, we're running them again,
- and any new ones you can send in.
- And there you'll find the beginning of the end and the beginning of the . . .
