Amazing Audition Tape

Written by Dan

A long time ago, in late May, Nicole and I decided it would be fun to audition for The Amazing Race. Being huge fans of the show, and having the theater as our hook, we thought we might stand a chance. Apparently not. The first round of live auditions took place last week and our telephone never rang... not even once. Of course, we don't own a telephone, but I'm sure you're picking up what I'm trying to put down.

So in lieu of a new MoxieTV (which, if the rumors are true, might be coming back soon), here is Team Moxie's audition tape for The Amazing Race.


And please spare me the comments about what you think of reality TV as a whole or The Amazing Race in particular. We enjoy it, and I thought you might enjoy our AWESOME audition tape.

Guys, that was awesome. You are both so natural in front of the camera. The Amazing Race is missing out.

Sheesh, If I had a million dollars to dangle in front of you, you'd be in MY amazing race. I've seen some friends' audition tapes for things like this, and y'all blew em all away.

I think you two should record a short film and enter it anonymously in the Moxie Shorts thing.

That was great. Shucks they didn't call you, this year. I guess this means you won't be leaving the theater in the hands of Justin, Kelly, Nate, and I this fall? Damn. That would have been an interesting month. Better luck next year!

Justin was the director. He done real good.

you two are indeed too cute.

you do realize that if you were to leave the moxie in the hands of others... a certain employee of yours will have, by the time you return, alphabetized and then color coded the candy, beer, wine, toliet paper, anything not glued down, etc.

i wont say which employee would do such a thing. but trust me... it would happen.

Y'all are cool! That tape was great. The Amazing Race soooo should have picked you. Maybe next year. Go team Moxie!

Too many positive comments!

Here:
Nicole, you look like Darth Vader in the title image.

FYse says:

Good work, guys. I'd have chosen you, and you know that's what really matters.

I may be wrong, but is that the first time we've heard Nicole speak on the Moxie Blog? What a treat.

Derek says:

Wow, Ian, Nicole does look like Darth Vader in that shot. I mean, the audition tape's awesome, but that one screen shot is . . . man, that's uncanny :-/

I don't look like Darth Vader...do I?

Ian says:

It also looks like Dan's left arm is leprotic.

you guys should've covered your faces in nic patches and just screamed at eachother the whole time. you'd be IN THERE.

Now I want to see your audition tape for Who Wants to be a Superhero.

Nate says:

Ha! I am just now getting around to watching this, 'cause I haven't had functioning speakers for a couple days.
This was fantastic. I don't know HOW they could have passed you over. The people they DID get better be fantastic, is all I gotta say. You guys are just so likeable, it's like they should mass produce you and sell you in boxes.
And good job Justin!

nicole says:

Ahem, Nate. I AM mass produced, remember? Her name is Stephanie.

Rachel says:

Okay so what if they said they wanted Nicole but would pair her with a 300 pound toothless man? Or they wanted Dan, but only with a sassy Latina? I think you two have too much wonderfully adorable chemistry. They want drama and occasional nudity.

¤ Posted on July 28, 2006 @ 10:33 pm

Dan says:

Occasional nudity? Hell, I can give them frequent nudity if that's what they're looking for. I'm naked 60% of the time anyway!

Nate says:

You are 60% naked 100% of the time, actually.

Warren says:

yo. at least when he's 60% naked he works every time. but is he made with bits of real panther?
