For years we have been exposed to television talk shows that depict two different extremes: the conservative and the radical. The public has been exposed to everything from the raunchiness of Jerry Springer and Howard Stern to the benevolence of Ellen Degeneres and Oprah Winfrey. If we would all take a second to be honest, most people have a little of each inside of us, and even if we do not, we at least wished we could sneak a peak into the lives of the "other side." Bill O'Reilly may be too biased, Tyra Banks may be a tad bourgeois, and the ladies of The View may be simply TOO MUCH! So ask yourself a question...is there ANYWHERE for you to tune to find people that really represent YOU!! Outside of the barber shop or nail salon, where can you go to listen to the views of those in your SAME situation instead of those of a Hollywood host? Where can you go to express your opinion before those who literally walk in your shoes? FM has gotten too censored. You can't hear through AM static. And XM may be too expensive. You may not agree with the views of Fox or CNN, but that's all you had...UNTIL NOW!! "On Tha Spot" was created "for the people, by the people." But don't get it twisted, we do not live by a Constitution. Instead our panelists and live studio audience have both chosen to live by a code: "If you can't stand the heat...give up your seat!" In fact, there is probably only one thing we all have in common: We are REAL PEOPLE facing REAL ISSUES with REAL TALK!! Sit close to your monitor’s folks...This could be something special!!
"Balancing the Scales of Justice"
Brian Beane is the Founder of 8th Wonder Enterprises, LLC and creator of a training series called Mentor To Millions. Since retiring at age 22, his passion for the past 13-15 years has been helping others change their mindsets and create a lifestyle as opposed to making a living!!!
Is the "bottom of the barrel" an overused cliche that represents our mindsets or a static? Where are blacks in the BIG SCHEME OF THINGS?
The panelists of "On Tha Spot" were born and raised in areas ranging from Miami, to Baltimore, to Pittsburgh. However, the recent arrest and sentencing of Hip Hop Artist T.I. for possesssion and gun charges led the natives of ATLANTA into a heated debate! Are there really 2 sides to T.I.? Is he a role model? Is hip hop the reason African Americans are perceived as "bottom of the barrel?" TUNE IN FOLKS..."This could be SOMETHING SPECIAL!!!"
