Without a definitive replacement locked up for D’Emilio’s spot, long-running co-host Lon Harris has been paired up with a number of surprisingly similar looking on-air personalities for the weekly TWIYT episodes. As Harris quipped in a recent opening, “This Week in YouTube — the show that swaps hosts faster than the Hanta virus.”
The standout so far has been tech-web personality Shira Lazar who has been on a tear lately in the web video scene, recently winning Kevin Rose/Ashton Kutcher’s 24 Hours at Sundance contest, not to mention hosting the Streamy Awards red carpet show along with D’Emilio.
Today, at 10:00 AM (PT) the crew is taking TWIYT LIVE for an hour on UStream, bringing on a sloth of guests including Martine Beerman, The Fine Brothers and our very own Tubefilter writer-host Andrea Ball. (So if you’re reading this between 10 and 11, head over there and take a peek). The live show is the actual taping of the show and will be cut down to a standard five-minute episode.
