What Happened to Steve?

[music playing] STEVE GOLDBLOOM: We need money.

We need-- we need money from viewers like you-- just a second-- and our visas to stay in the country.

We need all that stuff.

Unfortunately, we've had to drop Steve or rather, we've lost him due to technical issues.

I'm being told-- [music playing] HARI SREENIVASAN: I lost touch with Steve after last year.

I think he took the show's cancellation pretty hard.

He just went off the grid.

Last I heard, he was freelancing-- not freelance reporting, just freelancing.

I heard he auditioned to be a newsreader at Discovery.

He sent me some tapes.

Not bad, but it was pretty obvious he was reading off the prompter.

FEMALE NEWSREADER: Specifically, she found that psychopaths possess a smaller than normal amygdala.

(IN UNISON) Her newest study th-- That was-- that's-- (IN UNISON) And then she looked at their brains You-- god, I swear.

If th-- if there was a rehearsal, we would have been-- you would have-- because you're doing great.

You're really good at this.

I know.

Then, I think it's me.

I think it is you.

OK. And so we agree that-- Yeah.

So your stuff's coming.

HARI SREENIVASAN: I think he signed up to be a Lyft driver?

Yeah, just don't slam-- You forgot your iced tea.

I know he tried working at a startup, delivering groceries to people in San Francisco.

Not sure how that worked out.

Excuse me.

Whoa.

Hey man, where you've been?

I need he-- oh.

Peach.

I I didn't order a peach.

Your name is David.

No, my name's Michael.

That's his peach.

Yep.

I'd like to know what he's up to.

Let's go girls.

JORDAN SMITH (VIA PHONE): Stevie G, it's your favorite producer calling.

Hey, Jordy.

JORDAN SMITH (VIA PHONE): Steve, I'm a little surprised at this.

Tha-tha-- that sounds too good to be true.

JORDAN SMITH (VIA PHONE): People find you relatable.

They're OK with somebody, you know, who looks like the-- they haven't slept in 3 and 1/2 years.

Part time, no benefits-- you still interested?

Yes.

You know what?

I-I-- I will-- I will take it.

Seriously, I'll take anything.

I got-- I gotta-- do you mind just-- perfect.

All you.

We're here to see YouTube mega star, iJustine.

You're doing a great job.

I hate [inaudible] this.

(WHISPERING) I'm boiling.

I really am.

It's not easy.

STEVE GOLDBLOOM: Yeah.

If it was easy, everybody would be doing it.

Well, but a lot of people are doing it.
