Challenge winner visits Robin on set

Posted: 06:21 AM ET

Hey folks! Remember the Morning Express Challenge? It was an online quiz in which we asked viewers questions about the show in real-time, as the show was happening.

Each day, there were two winners, one was the person with the highest score, the other was a random winner drawn from the list of everyone who played.

After the game wrapped up, we drew a grand prize winner from the list of all the daily winners. The grand prize winner was Everett Bollinger of Hereford, Texas, and last week he came to Atlanta to visit Robin on set. He also got to enjoy a VIP tour of HLN and CNN studios and an all-expenses-paid weekend in Atlanta.

Did you enjoy the Morning Express Challenge? Are there other ways that you'd like to interact with the show? Leave your ideas in the comments field!

Looks Like I get to be the first one, oddly – being in my office right now – about to teach a summer class, I just checked the website since I can't watch Robin Express here.

Would like a live tv feed of hln (or at least a radio feed). Sadly, I miss chat although admittedly getting to speak to some of the cast was of course sometimes far between. Are you asking how *I'd* like to interact with the show? How about a direct phone line and text messaging, with staff power input but *no* work requirements :) :) Are you asking how I think the show should interact with most viewers? Admittedly, chat was fun. Tone it down to rarer occasions with a big (normal) window size for chat. Better yet, add something with video chat – ie justintv, and turn it on only for holidays. I know it takes a lot of time to chat with everyone, so make it special.

(FYI – I also miss Robin's podcast – they seem to have kindof halted after the jump. (She's still there right?). How about a podcast for the worldn't biggest yardsale. ie http://www.127sale.com/. If so, I hear Lexington has the best stuff :)

What about all the research that shows that people who abuse and kill animals go on to kill and abuse people?
He is not a roll model I want for any children. Greed is a terrible thing. So what if he can throw a football. Killing animals is not OK and please don't let him in the public eye.

I'd like to see the Morning Express Challange added to the show again. if not daily, perhaps on a once or twice per week basis.

I'd like to meet President Obama on the morning express challange
and I want to know "Why" he didn't exempt the "Stimulus Pay" from all state & federal Garnishment cause all it did was stimuate them and not me or those people who are on S.S.I. Disability and food stamp! We're susposed to stimulate the economy and not the Goverment's
who are getting the billions of dollars and other non state or federal
Insitutions such as Auto Corp, Banks, Mortages Companies,etc.etc.
