Episode 1 - Reality Television
My name is Mark Fischer and this is Fisching for Reason. The premise of this show is searching for understanding (or reason). Each week I will be discussing, nay, arguing with myself about a given topic. Since our society is working through its own reason right now, I felt the importance of exercising the concept of empathy by using topics that are or should be less serious and impactful, but still warrant an argument. I will post a topic out there and then proceed to speak freely on it using my honest opinion. This will then be followed by a short rebuttal of me attempting to acknowledge a different perspective of this topic. Okay, now that you understand the rules of this game you are not playing, this week’s topic is… Reality Television. I discuss the shows Jersey Shore, Too Hot To Handle, and Selling Sunset.
