Salt Lake-based online closeout retailer Overstock.com is scheduled to be featured on the Sept. 27 "Today" show on NBC.

In preparing for the segment, the show's producers interviewed Overstock.com CEO Patrick Byrne and Worldstock director Neelab Kanishka. Interviews were conducted in New York City and Salt Lake City, and camera crews were sent to Afghanistan to videotape Worldstock artisans at work.
