Loved hearing the backstory of MTV and each of the ways it progressed into new territory. I graduated high school in 1981 and am in the OG generation. I still love seeing the creativity of the 80’svideos

Not the definitive story, but dang close

Dave Holmes is an amazing storyteller and the fact that his stories are more than, they are real life accounts from a life lived. Every time Dave is on the Never not funny podcast. It’s to promote something amazing and I’m glad he was to promote this.

Very Invested!
