VBS.tv
I’m not sure how many of you are familiar with this website but I thought I should at least give it a plug considering how much time I spend on there myself. It’s basically an internet TV channel. It has a bunch of original shows made specifically for it which you can stream. Kinda like MTV Overdrive - but good. As you can imagine, the benefits of not having to adhere to TV broadcasting standards are numerous(swearing is good for you - true story).
I religiously watch a show called Epicly Later’d which is intended to be a show for skate-nerds, but I’ve found most people I’ve showed it to are fascinated by the personalities they profile on it. It’s just a really interesting show, which apparently MTV now want to pick up. That’ll probably turn it to shit but it’s good that it gets a chance to be seen by the masses.
What I thought might be of particular interest to you guys though would be the ‘Spike spends Saturday with‘ series which is a show that’s basically Spike Jonze(of video director, Being john malkovich fame) spending a day with a person/artist of his choice. Chatting about whatever he feels like. There’s currently a 5 part episode with Kanye West, and a 6 part one with M.I.A. I just watched the Kanye one and it’s the shit. Check out the first episode below.

Shot for this… on a side note, surfthechannel.com is all good for streaming mainstream shows, movies etc. if you’re not too worried about quality and just want a quick watch…
