The Unknown Studio

Edmonton's podcast talk-show broadcast from an underground bunker within the city

Episode the 24th: Lynda Steele talks local news

Posted by Adam Rozenhart On May - 17 - 2010

I don’t think it’s a secret that Scott and I are fans of Global Edmonton 6 0′clock news co-anchor Lynda Steele. She’s a pillar of the community, a big Edmonton booster, and an all-around great woman. So we decided to invite her onto the show to get her perspective on living and working in Edmonton in a rather public role.

And wouldn’t you know it, but Lynda is extremely down-to-earth and fun. Scott and I spent just over an hour chatting with her about how she got into her job as a news anchor, how news has changed, and what it’s like to be a news personality who gets noticed out in public. I even reveal details about the first time I met Lynda — intoxicated at a hockey game, and probably a little overly friendly.

But wait! THERE’S MORE! We even spent a bit of time talking to her about her sudden jump off of Twitter.

EDMONTON JOURNAL STILL SPONSORS THE UNKNOWN STUDIO

It’s true! After so much joking and tongue-in-cheek referrals to Edmonton’s newspaper of record on our show, the Edmonton Journal decided to put their money where our mouths are, by sponsoring the Unknown Studio this month!

We’re helping EJ to promote their Blackberry mobile launcher. You can check it out by clicking here on your Blackberry browser. If you have any comments about the mobile launcher or the Journal’s mobile site, let us know and we’ll pass it along!
