This post might be filed under the annoying “teaser” category but we can’t tell you anything other than to cryptically announce that you might want to watch The Nate Show next Monday (the 25th) or DVR it if you’re fancy like that because… we’re going to be on it!!!
It’s a syndicated show, so we don’t know what channel or time it’s on in your area (in fact it doesn’t even air in Richmond, which is the bane of our existence) but if you hit up thenateshow.com you can use their station finder feature for more info. We’ve always been huge fans of Nate and his work, so we can’t wait to check out Monday’s episode (and unzip our lips about it after it airs).
Whirlwind doesn’t even begin to describe it. They called us on a Wednesday, flew us out on a Thursday, and we were rehearsing and taping bright and early on a Friday. Oh and Mrs. Limestone was there too- it was really fun to meet her and her hubs in the flesh!
By 1pm that day we were back on a plane for home (landing just in time for the arrival of The Bowers). It felt kind of like a dream since we were gone for less than 24 hours. We promise more info as soon as we’re permitted to spill the beans. Until then I’ll leave you with this picture of Nate’s iconic designer hair…
… just because I’m weird like that.
Sweet!
No way!?! Ummm, that is SUPER exciting! I’ve always said YHL needs their own DIY/decor show… I mean, if Vanilla Ice gets one, you guys could definitely show him up! ;) Well, this is just one step closer. Any hints on what you guys talked about with Mr. Dreamy Design Man himself?!
Hey Michelle,
We’re sworn to secrecy until it airs but it was lots of fun! More details in a week (aaah, a week- I hope we don’t look/sound crazy!).

Argh! I’m here in Richmond (desperately hoping your next house is in my neighborhood, btw!), with no Nate show on the local channels. What do you suggest your “local fans” do? I want to see this! I have Verizon FIOS and a DVR … Tech help appreciated.
Congrats, y’all!
Hey Kristin,
We’re reaching out to some local Richmond networks in the hopes that they’ll start to carry the show, but since it’s such short notice we also hope we can upload the segment on our site so people can watch it there. Fingers crossed that we can get that to work…

Sherry, love the shirt you’re wearing!!!
I live in Canada and I can catch Nate’s show on CITY TV at 1am. Set the DVR!!
Very exciting news! Thanks for the heads-up so I can DVR the show. How great for you guys!
Congratulations!!! You guys are the best! I can’t wait to watch it!
My husband is Nate!
But not Nate Berkus. Can’t wait to see the segment! Whee!
Congrats! Can’t wait to watch it!
ARGH! His show isn’t in New Hampshire either! That’s bad enough, but to miss your segment – torture. Please post it after it airs on your site, if you can. :) Congrats.
So excited for you guys! I will definitely watch the show. How was it meeting your crush Nate, Sherry? (Or can you not talk about that yet? Hee hee.)
Hey Alondra,
Full disclosure: it was awesome. Except I’m pretty sure I had that I’m-a-stalker look plastered on my face the whole time. You know the creepy permasmile? Guilty as charged.
xo,

You must have lots of bruises with all the pinching that goes on around there!! Never a dull moment for the Petersiks! Wish I could watch but we just have basic cable. I hope you’re able to post a video!!
For Christine and any other Canadian viewers – I’m in Calgary, AB and I can catch Nate on Onmi CJCO at 4 pm (MST). This is channel 4 on my local digital cable. Hope this info helps!
I meant to add: Maybe someday you can pay Nate back and invite him to be on your show!!
It airs at 3pm in California…have my dvr set and ready to go!
The Nate show is on at 1am in Las Vegas!!!! Grrrrr…really don’t want to wake up that early to watch it and I don’t have DVR. I wonder if it will be on Hulu.
I just checked and it is on at 10 AM on ABC for anyone in the Indianapolis area…which now also answers my question (which I never looked into apparently) on who eventually took over Bonnie Hunt’s time slot. haha.
Sherry how did you not stutter and sweat while talking to Nate?! He’s so dreamy :-)
Hey Anna,
Who says I didn’t stutter and sweat up a storm?! Because I totally did. And he’s about 100 times dreamier in person than on TV. John’s my true love but Nate’s a close second.

I was watching that show recently when they had another blogger on and I thought, “YHL should TOTALLY be on this show!” Soon my dream will be a reality! Awesome! :)
You guys more than earned this. Haha, I love that your readers know you well enough to ask why you aren’t wearing black. At least your hair is still up. I don’t think the blogosphere could handle the excitement.
Too funny. Yeah, the interweb might have imploded if my hair was down on national TV.

Soo cool. Can you tell us about the actual experience? Like did they fly you first class? Did they send a car service? What in the world was the greenroom like? Or is that a secret too?
Please tell me it’s not a secret..I NEED details!
Hey Misty,
They flew us coach, they sent a car service, they put us up at a killer hotel, and we have pics of the green room (and a lot of other fun things) in the post that we’ll be sharing about the entire experience after it airs on Monday. Fun, fun, fun.

This is awesome. I’m going to DVR it for sure. Can’t wait to see you on the show! :)
Boo! It say it’s on here but it isn’t :/
That is SO exciting! Congrats! I think you need your own show too- cmon HGTV! Especially with the upcoming new house…..there would be so much material for episodes!
I have never seen this Nate Berkus show everyone is raving about, but since you guys are going to be on it, I must make sure to DVR it!
Oh and I’m a fairly new reader, maybe a month or 2, and I think you guys have my dream life. Complete with the fact that one of the few secret baby names my husband and I agreed on was Clara. And this comment is getting weird…. so congrats!! :)
You two are adorable, even in a simple picture together the affection is sweetly obvious.
John and Sherry live! How exciting!! I may take a long lunch to watch it at 2pm in Cali…stoked! Love the iconic hair. McDreamy.
Eeeeeekkkkk!!!!!! Congrats you two. I knew you’d make it to TV :) And just to think that I knew you before you make it bigtime {grins}!
How exciting!! Bummer it won’t be on here in Richmond.
WOW!!
A couple of times that I have watched I have seen other bloggers on and thought, “oh, John & Sherry would be soooooo good for this show!”.
Exciting!!!
How exciting, I know you had a great time!! I recently taped a segment with Nate and the whole staff made it an experience to not be forgotten soon. Can’t wait to see what you two talk about on your segment!!
Janell
SHUT.IT.UP.YALL!! That is CRAZY exciting! You’re totally going to end up on Oprah and she’s going to give you some project to tackle a la trading spaces style. I’m calling it now!
Any advice on how us non-cable folks can score a view of this on the interwebs perhaps?
Congrats you guys!! You totally deserve it!!
Just DVR’d it! So excited!!
Waaaa! What are the Richmond fans to do? Think we can watch eps online?
Hey Beth & Ali,
We’re hoping we can figure out things enough to transfer the show onto our blog so people can watch it there. Fingers crossed that we can master the mechanics of the whole from-tv-to-computer thing!

Mrs. Limestone and YHL on the same show?!! I’ll definitely tune in. I’m a fan of both of your sites. (I wrote to Mrs. Limestone a couple of years ago when I was researching soapstone for our kitchen redo and she was really helpful).
I’ve really been enjoying YHL since a friend sent me a link about a month ago. I love all the helpful tips and design ideas from you guys. Congratulations on being featured on Nate’s show. I look forward to seeing what cool design ideas you guys will talk about.
AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH! NO WAY!?! That is amazingly cool! Where do they tape? EEEEEEK—I’m so happy for you! That must have been the best kind of cool! I’m looking it up on my DVR now—yippee!
Hey Kathleen,
They tape in NYC, our old stomping ground (where John & I met and fell in love). It was so fun to point out the window and show Clara where our old office was as we were driven by on the way to the studio in the morning!

Our DVR is set – how exciting!
Awesome! I can’t wait to watch the show! :)
I’M HAUTE
The best deal I got was on a purse in china town in NYC. AND I was able to get my sis a bag in the deal as well.
OH MY GOSH! I love that show and I can’t wait to see you on it!!!!
Oooo! This is so exciting and the suspense is killing me! I just went to set up my DVR to record it, but it doesn’t show that its on, on Monday. Only Tuesday – Friday. Is your episode really on Monday or could that have been a typo? I don’t want to miss it…so I recorded the whole series…ha!
Hey Meghan,
Oh no! Unfortunately it’s not a typo, but since it’s syndicated maybe they only pick up Tues-Friday shows? We hope to figure out how to upload the clip to our site. Fingers crossed that works out…
xo,

Congrats to you both! I can’t wait to watch you both on the show! How exciting! :)
It says its on in Houston, but I cant find it on my AT&T/U-Verse! Bummer…I really hope you all can get it posted!
Yaay! I’m so excited for you guys! I just got home and set the DVR..my boyfriend started yelling because I was blocking the Yankees/Rangers game, but I told him to HOLD ON because I had to make sure it was set to record so I could see my favorite bloggers!!! Congrats!!
Congrats! That’s too cool! What a dream it must be. Can’t wait to watch you guys…and Nate, of course.
Aw thanks for sharing in our excitement everyone! You da best.

s (& j)
Holy cow, that is seriously a big deal. Congrats to you both (And Clara and Burger!), I can only imagine how exciting that must have been.
I’d just have been giddy at the thought of the car service and hotel, before even meeting Nate! :)
Ya–Hoo! I’m excited but not surprised. You two (and Clara and any little Clara siblings down the road) are going to be famous! Congratulations!!! I can’t wait to see you with Nate! –5:00 pm Seattle time on KONG 16 for all you Seattleites!
Pardon my naivete, but who on Earth is Mrs. Limestone???
SO excited for you guys!!! DVR is SET!
Hey Cassie,
Just follow the link in the post over to her blog! She’s an awesome fellow DIYer who has done some amazing things with her home in Brooklyn!
xo,

NO WAY! This to toooo cooool! Love Nate, Love YHL so exciting. If you can’t figure out how to post it on the blog, please let us know how we can see it from Australia. Cheers ! Oh & Congrats.
I love Nate, so i am already recording the show. I also noticed that he had been very welcoming to bloggers, especially budget conscious ones so i knew it was only a matter of time before my favorites make the list :-) Can’t wait to see it!
CONGRATS YHL!!!!!
Wow that’s awesome…Im so excited for you guys…I so wish I can watch it but I’ll be at work at the time its aired here in Miami FL (now im contemplating calling in sick, jejeje). But im keeping my fingers crossed so you guys can figure out how to upload it onto the blog. In the mean time, I’ll try to come up with excuses to not come to the office and catch the show instead…Ha!
