About the ShowThe Buck Starts Here - New Videos Every Week
The Resident on Wikipedia Hello, people! Welcome to my countercultural online video show. My mission is to buck the system of the mainstream media as it now exists, through social commentary, political videos, interviews with grassroots movement and people, alternative news story coverage, and lots more good stuff. I think it’s good, at least, and much-needed: it’s about time real people started talking about really important social issues and our popular culture stopped sucking so bad. Maybe if we got our society’s head out of the celebrity-worshipping sand, we’d actually start to get out of this economic recession (Yes, I’m talking to you, fellow Americans.).
Throughout the show, I try to ask the questions you’d want answered and talk about issues you think are important, so please interact on the site through video comments, the forum community, or plain old email. Join the fight against consumerist mind-numbing, tell me what you want to talk about, and let’s talk about THAT for a change. The grassroots show started online in 2000 and moved to New York City TV a couple years later.
