"I Was an Original Host of GameSpot TV — Here’s the Video Proof!
🔥 I WAS AN ORIGINAL HOST OF *GameSpot TV* — DOES WIKIPEDIA EVEN LIST ME (check Xplay listing IMO: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xplay)?
Here’s the **VHS proof**, **on-screen host credit**, **ZDTV-labeled tapes**, and my more complete **untold backstory** IMO — straight from the archives.
In this 48-minute deep dive, I reveal:
✅ How I became one of the first national TV game show hosts (alongside Adam Sessler & Lauren Fielder)
✅ Potentially Rare footage from *GameSpot TV* (ZDTV) and *Silicon Spin* IMO
✅ The original executive producer - Miguel Gonzaga - did potentially Wikipedia forget IMO?
✅ My journey from cable access to national TV
✅ Why this matters in the age of AI deepfakes: **This is ME. This is REAL.**
🎞️ **FAIR USE NOTICE**:
All archival clips are used under fair use for commentary, criticism, historical documentation, and identity verification. Vast to overwhelming majority of original audio is muted IMO. Brief segments with original audio include sound only for voice authentication. Physical VHS tapes are from my personal collection. No affiliation with ZDTV, TechTV, G4, or Comcast/NBCUniversal.
📼 **SEE THE PROOF**:
• ZDTV-labeled VHS tapes (with old SF address & main business phone line)
• On-screen “HOST” graphics with my name
• Segments where I’m reviewing games, interviewing game industry and gaming media people.
• Segments on Silicon Spin, including where I am identified as a host of GameSpot TV.
📰 **POTENTIALLY CORRECTING THE INTERNET RECORD IMO **: This video helps clarify the record, IMO — with **primary source evidence**.
👉 **LIKE if you remember ZDTV**
👉 **COMMENT your favorite 90s gaming memory**
👉 **SHARE with anyone who thinks history should be accurate and complete IMO**
