A good friend of mine works for the National Swedish Television and reported for them during Dreamhack, to her delight she got the opportunity to interview Day9 during this event and for those of you whom haven't seen it I recommend checking it out on her blogg:
Link: Awesome blogg action !
The real interview is actually doubble the lenght but it'll take a month untill she can get her hands on it (copyright talks, some uninteresting stuff really), in the mean while enjoy some sweet Day9 action and a merry christmas to you all ! Feel free to leave a comment on the blogg, she'd appritiate that
(Btw I know this isn't the blogg forum but since we post interviews with JinrO and IdrA in this forum I thought it would belong here.)
EDIT: Some people asked what was being said at the end of the interview Rough translation (Codus and thanks to "NotSupporting" for the translation!)
- I bet you liked doing that interview Ina, how was it to meet him? - I must say that it was the funnies interview I ever done in my life, a lot of the interview was unfortunately edited out since it got too long but in the end I totally just burst out in laughter. He is unbelievably charming and pleasant and that also explains why he has become this great icon for Starcraft. It's not only the fact that he knows much about the game, he is also pleasant and energetic which explains his great success. - So, what makes him so special? - I believe it's because he makes such deep analysis about the game on a very fundamental level compared to most other commentators and like I said before he knows so much about the game and once again that he is so charming and funny. He is like the representative of computer geeks in it's most positive form. - Would you like to see more commentators like Day9? - Absolutely, he really takes commentating to a new level. - Was this the first time you met him? - This was indeed the first time I met him and I am very happy about that, he was so nice. I usually don't get too nervous when I met artists and such but when I met Day9 I got a little shaky, it feel like a big moment - Thank you very much Ina, who got to meet Day9, a real legend when it comes to commentating e-sport.

Hahaha Day9 is just silly :D
|
Day9 is full of epic win.
|
Nice, Day9 is awesome. Day9 interviews are second only to TLO or MC.

"Kids, don't go to school." -Day9

in the background inception is running. i smell copyright infringement

Really nice interview there. Day9 just keeps showing what an awesome guy he seems to be.
|
Be sure to update this post when the full interview comes out and then nag the OP of the day9 fanclub thread as well.
Also, just out of curiosity I would like to know what the swedish people are saying.
And Day9 had better still be casting Starcraft games when he's 85! You hear that day9, don't you dare quit on us anytime this century!

What does that mean?
"Den här videon är tyvärr inte tillgänglig."
It doesn't let me watch the vid.

I have a theory that this woman texted day9 during one of his recent dailies, I have no actual basis to ground this on but it's a hunch..

"This video is not available" is what that means I don't know how you can fix it, try playing any random clip from svtplay.se and if it doesn't work then it's because of regional restrictions or you don't have the correct player (I think it's flash)

It doesn't let me watch the vid. "This video is sadly not available". Strange, it's working fine for me and evidently some other people. Try again later :o

Nicely done, Day9.

I remember seeing this interview on SVT during the Dreamhack, and it certanly was awesome! Day9 is such a charming fellow! ♥
|
Nice interview :D I don't think I'll ever stop admiring this man. I met him on the toilette at Dreamhack and had a brief conversation while taking a leak. Even though I felt kind of silly and starstruck, he was extremely friendly and even agreed on taking a picture with me(not while peeing though hah), standing in a crowded bathroom full of sweaty nerds, before running away to more important business.

Man Day[9] is such a natural. Oozes charisma and charm. If Starcraft has a spokesperson, it's this guy.
