I'm lost, what does this mean? They are going to do interviews? Whats a sherpa?

No, the TV table has been in a seperate tower from where the regular tourney is being held. It's about a 5 minute walk from where the regular tourney room is and then up an elevator to the room.

The term 'sherpa' (the preferred spelling with a lower case first letter) is also incorrectly used to refer to local people, typically men, employed as porters or guides for mountaineering expeditions in the Himalayas. They are highly regarded as experts in mountaineering and their local terrain, as well as having good physical endurance and resilience to high altitude conditions. However, a sherpa is not necessarily a member of the Sherpa ethnic group. A female sherpa is known as a "Sherpani".
