Yesterday the 2009 Pulitzer Prize winners were announced. That got me to thinking… didn't Lino submit for one of those back in January? Well no, but he did apply for another award that began with the letter 'P': the Peabody Award. As it turns out, the list of winners for the Peabody Award was released three weeks ago.
Sadly, The Catholic Guy with Lino Rulli didn't meet the Peabody Board's standards of excellence and innovation. I feel for Lino… he spent a lot of time (about 30 hours) working on the show's application. And because Busted Halo Show producer Brett Siddell was helping him out, he was put in the awkward position of having to help him with their application as well. Not to mention the entry fee he had to shell out… there's $250 he'll never see again.
If it's any consolation, The Busted Halo Show didn't win, either. That would've been really awkward. And just imagine if Seize The Day had applied and won… I don't think I've ever seen someone's head actually explode before.
