I had the chance to go to the Dolby Theatre and today we’ll go on a tour. Would you believe it’s in a shopping mall? And it’s right across the street from where they tape the Kimmel show. Hard to believe they just cover up the shopping mall with fancy cloth and roll out a giant read carpet. Couple of tents and some bleachers and voila! You have the oscars. The area of downtown Hollywood were the telecast is held is not much bigger than downtown Brandon!
