MelodyHall (MH): For the first time ever on WattRad, we are introducing a new segment where we will be interviewing favorite celebs and some rising stars. Here with me today are Mel and Ludo from Writing Boot Camp! Please give a warm welcome to these two lovely folks!
*Raving applause and cheers*
Mel: It's a pleasure to meet you, Mel!
MH: We do share the same name! What a coincidence! On a side note, I'm totally digging your outfits! All decked up to the nines in your Hogwarts House's attire! So chic!
Mel: Awe, thanks. Ravenclaw is the best house, and I hear you are a Ravenclaw, too!
MH: Aye, that's right!
Ludo: We've grown to agree to disagree on that whole "best" house. By the way, where's your Ravenclaw getup?!
MH: Sadly, I forgot it, but my earrings are blue!
Ludo: I guess that works!
MH: It's lovely to have you both here on today's radio show!
Both: Thanks for having us!
MH: Tell us what you two look like since all of our viewers can't see you.
Ludo: Well, let's just put it like I'm a younger Harrison Ford look-alike from his role as Indiana Jones, but I'm not nearly as adventurous or courageous for what he does.
Mel: But, we've even had some people mistake him for the real Jones when we were in Disney! Once, he even signed an autograph! Anyway, I don't think I look like anyone famous––
Ludo: Nonsense, she's Stephanie Leigh Schlund, who plays Cashmere from Hunger Games: Catching Fire.
Mel: Lu, no one knows what she looks like. Anyway, I don't look like her!
Ludo: Sunshine, yeah, you do. Not exactly, but really close!
Mel: Whatever. I'm just a bit shorter and a few years her junior.
MH: On age, you are both in your mid-twenties. Can you give us a snippet about your background? What's your family like, how's your relationship with each other? Mel, why don't we start with you this time?
Mel: Um, truthfully, my relationship with my mother isn't the best. I feel like she wants to be very...involved in my life even though I've since moved out. I dunno. I love her, don't get me wrong, it's just...complicated. Anyway, I have a really small family: it's just myself, mom, and my uncle. I wish I had had siblings growing up, though!
Ludo: My whole family is Hufflepuff, funny right! It's just like Harry's family, but they were Gryffindors. Anyway, even though we emulate all the Hufflepuff attributes, life didn't always go sunshine and confetti, 'ya know? My parents are huge on charities and volunteerism, but sometimes that left me and my brothers, Elijah and Jimmy, alone a lot as kids. But, we're all pretty tight now, so that's all that matters.
MH: You both are quite witty and down to earth, what other traits do you have that we don't know about?
Ludo: I guess I'll go first this round? I'm pretty extrovert, but Mel isn't.
Mel: I think it actually depends on the crowd. I've been told I'm an ambivert. Like, when I'm chatting with my online friends I definitely am way more extrovert there! But otherwise, yeah, I'm definitely introverted.
Ludo: I'm more introverted when thrust into a room full of people I don't know. Aside from that, I am a dreamer. I'm always wanting to go places, and if it weren't for Mel to ground me a bit, I would be broke!
