Join GMMR As We Embark On ‘Oprah’s Lifeclass: The Tour’

Oprah is taking the world’s largest classroom on the road, and she has kindly invited GIVE ME MY REMOTE.com along for the adventure.

[Remember that time that Oprah and Gayle went on that road trip together? Well, swap out Gayle for Kath and it’s just like that. Ok, or nothing like that at all…but still, Oprah!]

Later this morning I’ll be boarding a plane to St. Louis to meet up with Oprah and the OWN TV team for behind the scenes access to Oprah’s Lifeclass: the Tour.

I’m heading backstage to see first hand how a production of this magnitude comes together. I’ll be there to watch Oprah rehearse and later talking to the producers and talent needed to bring the world’s largest classroom not only to those in the studio audience, but to you at home watching on OWN, and those around the globe who are watching online and participating via social media. [Learn more about how you can participate in Lifeclass online.]

Airing every Monday night at 8/7c for the next six weeks, Oprah’s Lifeclass: the Tour, will feature eye-opening discussions with superstar teachers on television, on the Web and in person.

Live the in Audience Tomorrow Night
Tomorrow night, during the LIVE season premiere, Iyanla Vanzant returns and joins Oprah as they inspire viewers to stop the pain in their lives and create the loving relationships they deserve. In this special event, Iyanla creates the ultimate lesson plan for Oprah’s Lifeclass: the Tour viewers.

If you watched Oprah’s Lifeclass last season, then you know that there is much to be gained by participating in whatever capacity is right for you. Oprah has provided workbook questions to help viewers continue the conversation and take more from each lessons.  Check out the Life Work questions to accompany tomorrow night’s episode on stopping the pain.

I’ll be in the audience and maybe even live blogging and I look forward to sharing this experience with all of you.

It’s not everyday that I have the chance to meet and possibly interview Oprah Winfrey so I’m hoping that all of you will be in this with me over the next two days. This whole adventure will be so much for with all of you there!

• Twitter: I’ll be live tweeting from backstage and in the audience via @GMMRtv. The hashtag is #lifeclass, so make sure you’re following along.
• Google+: I’m going to be posting from updates from GMMR’s new Google+ page, so if we aren’t connected on Google+ let’s remedy that today! Who knows, maybe we can even do a live Google Hangout and I can take some questions directly from YOU!
• Live Blogging: From what I was told, I’ll also be able to live blog directly from the audience during the LIVE taping of the show. How great is that?

Stay tuned to my Twitter account, Google+ page and GIVE ME MY REMOTE.com for more as the plans unfold. But it’s my hope that you all can be watching at home tomorrow night and we can share the experience right here on GMMR.

If you have any questions for Oprah, her producers (and don’t think for a minute I won’t be keeping an eye our for Sheri Salata) most definitely leave a comment and let me know. I’ll also be speaking with Iyanla Vanzant and Tony Robbins, so if you have anything you want me to ask them just shout it out (ok, maybe not shout it, but leaving a comment on here, over at G+ or Twitter might work better.)
