Ask 'Junkyard Wars Diva' Cathy Rogers

Posted by Roblimo on Monday October 21, 2002 @04:00AM from the where-welding-skills-trump-coding-prowess-every-time dept.

Junkyard Wars (and the British Scrapheap Challenge) have long been popular with Slashdot readers. Now Cathy is co-host of a new show, Full Metal Challenge, that also involves teams building strange machines out of this and that. Take a look at this 'Cathy' fan site (and possibly her less interesting official biography), then ask away. (Usual Slashdot interview rules.)

Does all that brainwork, metal, and sweat turn you on?

If Playboy publishes a "Girls of Tech Shows" issue, will you agree to pose nude?

That guy is a complete muscleheaded retard. He's not an engineer. He doesn't know shit about shit. He's perhaps the least qualified person I can imagine to be providing commentary on this type of a show. Remember Carmen Elektra's out-of-place cluelessness on Battlebots? Same deal here, except who wants to look at some 40+ man with some old, dumb tattoos, grecian formula hair treatment, and a jock attitude?!?

I would recommend either a witty comedian (Rollins fails here as well) or an engineering genius (like one of the Brothers Long) to host the show.

Wow I have the exact opposite feeling. Cathy always annoyed me to no end, only to be eclipsed by Tyler. At least when she was replaced this last season, my annoyance level went down slightly. I fondly remember Season 1 when Robert Llewelyn (sp?) was the one and only decent host. *sigh*
