And if that’s not enough video content with which to wind down your week, here’s more quality teevee programming the IUSTV crowd has recently produced that I haven’t yet shared here. This is the late night comedy- variety- experimental- awkward- affirmative- comedy- show. It’s a comedy.
“Always Be Recording. Always.”
Here’s the morning show. It’s their first episode of the season, and they have two brand new co-hosts. Still a good way to start your mid-morning, if you ask me.
This is a brand new show. They’re showing off video works of other students, and talking to the creators. It’s a pretty cool concept!
And that’s how we’ll get to the weekend. Have a lovely one!
