Holy moly if there's actually a market for this, then our civilization is toast.
I'm sorry, it's hard to type the rest of this story because I'm afraid that my eyes have just permanently rolled into the back of my head. But I'll try to push through.
Here's People Magazine about the show:
Steve Burns is back — with a new podcast that the former Blue's Clues host tells PEOPLE builds on the "joy and wonder" so present in the iconic children's show.
Speaking to PEOPLE in an exclusive interview, 51-year-old Burns explains how the new podcast, called Alive, spun out of the viral TikTok videos he posted during the COVID-19 pandemic — videos in which he didn't speak much, but instead "checked in" on his followers.
Yeah, we covered that here at the time:
The nostalgia of a 51-year-old man "checking in" on 30+ year old adults because he used to host a kids show they all watched?
Allie Stuckey had some thoughts:
Burns adds that the virality of his social media videos demonstrated that there was a way to break through in this modern era. The new podcast, he says, 'feels very much like a public access cable show from the late 90s.'
So, targeted to children? Got it.
I will say one thing.
Steve understands the target demo.
