Bangkok to Rio

UPDATE: Sadly, it appears that only computers with Brazilian IP addresses can access the video clip. So... uh... come visit us in Rio and we'll sit you down in front of the laptop so you can watch Beth in all her Portuguese-speaking, frisbee-throwing, samba-dancing glory.

It only took three weeks in Rio for Beth to be featured on Brazilian daytime TV. For those of you who happened to miss the segment, click here.

On the right side of the page, click on "Anteriores" (just to the left of the search bar) and go to 20/3. In the list of shows, click on "Esportes diferentes no Brasil." Skip ahead about 5 minutes to see Beth's Brazilian debut.

In case your Portuguese is a little rusty, here's a translation:

Reporter: Beth Mitchell, an American social worker, liked the idea of combining frisbee with music for kids.

Beth: I've never seen it before, it's totally new to me, but it's cool. It seems like the students really like it; they like to dance, to combine the two things.

Reporter: In the U.S., do people ever do it with music?

Beth: No. Never.

The calls from soap opera casting agents haven't started pouring in yet, but it can only be a matter of time.
