CENTRAL FLORIDA, Fla. – You’re used to seeing WKMG News 6 Anchors Matt Austin and Ginger Gadsden on TV during the newscasts and on their podcast, Florida’s Fourth Estate on the app or website, but we’re giving you an opportunity to get up-close behind-the-scenes look at how the show comes together.
Florida’s Fourth Estate podcast covers popular topics and features interviews with Central Florida community members doing interesting and innovative things. Now the show is going on the road for a live, in-person episode at Miller’s Ale House in Winter Park Village on February 9th, 2024.
“This is the perfect timing for this type of episode because it’s held just a few days before the Super Bowl and it’s the perfect segway for the big game that airs on CBS,” said Ginger.
The guest for the live show is legendary football coach, Lou Holtz.
“He’s so recognizable. He was with the Fighting Irish for a long time. When he was the coach at NC State in the 70′s, he recruited my father, Chuck Austin, My dad didn’t end up going with that team. I’m definitely going to bring it up,” said Matt. “Our audience will be able to meet him and ask questions so it will truly be interactive.”
“You’re going to have a great time and you never know what to expect during a show with a live audience. You’ll see yourself on TV at some point,” said Ginger. “We’ve also got some great swag and prizes we’ll be giving out and we love to have the opportunity to meet and interact with the people in our community.”
