About a month ago, I was contacted on Reddit by a guy named Jeff Rubin asking if I was interested in doing a podcast interview with him. It was well after my "fame" had died down, so I agreed. His podcast, "Interviews You Didn't Know You Wanted to Hear", is actually fairly popular. The episode I did is finally up. It's over an hour long and I talk about almost all there is about the Wheel contestant experience, plus I talk about my friendships with other contestants, dealing with going viral, and of course this here site. 
Warning: My mic gets a little scratchy at some points, and I apologize for my stammering, repeating myself, overuse of "Of course" and "Definitely", and redundancies ("Amazingly, he got that, which was amazing" -_- )

The podcast is also available on iTunes: itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-jeff-rubin-jeff-rubin-show/id446316027
For some reason, my episode is labeled "Explicit", but neither of us swore once during the whole hour, so it's SFW.
