It all started back in January when our Los Angeles-based contributor Sinan G. suggested we holla at his friend Kate.  Being a bunch of affable fellows, how could we refuse?

It just so happens that Kate is the host of an online travel show called Key to Your City.  Key to Your City focuses on the "locals only" hotspots that don't show up in guidebooks, the kinds of places a friend takes you to when you visit them in their city.  The point is to highlight places that exemplify all the cultural, musical and artistic treasures that each city the show visits has to offer, to give viewers a real sense of what it's like to live in a place, to understand the flavor that makes a city itself and not some place else.  Their previous episode took place in Austin, make sure to get a look at those clips here.

But what on earth does any of this have to do with Steve's Word?

So glad you asked.  The next episode of Key to Your City will be shot in Brooklyn this weekend, and we're going along for the ride.  Kate and her team have extended an invitation to us to help pick out a few places that we think fit the bill and we'll be hanging out with the Key to Your City crew Saturday night.  Hey, we might even find our way into the final cut.  We're not entirely sure what's gonna happen, but we do know that it'll be a fun night.

When the episode is finished and the clips are cut, we'll be posting them here on Steve's Word.  And if you find yourself wandering around BK and see us leading a camera crew to some of our favorite haunts, come over and say hi.  It'll make us look cool.
