You might have came to the Buskirk Chumley for Dead Prez, but by the end of the night you were won over by MUDKIDS.
What you see if the aftershow interview with MUDKIDS as they take a few moments out of getting constant props from fans to talk with myself and IUSTV. MUDKIDS put up on a hell of a show, and were awesome and down-to-earth. Support them!

IU alumni Christian Lander came back to Bloomington to give a lecture. I sat down with him (well he sat, I stood) for one of the most comfortable and interesting interviews I’ve yet to participate in. I regret not being able to get footage from his actual lecture, as he discussed his internet sensation “Stuff White People Like” His blog has more hits than the population counts of small countries. Christian was extremely down to earth and offered some excellent insight into the blog culture, transitioning to other mediums, and his views on college. Part 2 will be uploaded at the end of the summer when I get back home to my footage.
I interviewed legendary hip-hop group Dead Prez on February 25th, 2009 at the Buskirk-Chumley in Bloomington, IN. While just a sample of the discussion we had, M-1 and stic.man touched on the topics of politics and how hip-hop relays their message to people. It was a pleasure to talk with these two educated musicians.
A longer video with the full interview and more concert footage to come.

At the end of October I got to meet Max Brooks. As author of The Zombie Survival Guide and World War Z, Mr. Brooks has become one of the ultimate authorities alongside George Romero himself on the undead. Here is the interview, fianlly ready for the interwebs.
