It Doesn't Always Go As Planned on Live TV

I do a live weekly science experiment segment on the NBC affiliate in Denver. I practice the demo before I go on, check and double check my materials and do everything I can to ensure a flawless performance. On live TV, there are no do overs. This week during my Science Monday on 9News, I attempted to show my cohort in crime, news anchor Mark Koebrich, how to pull a cork out of a wine bottle. Sounds easy, right? It didn’t exactly go as planned until the last 5 seconds of the segment.
