As a member of Crowdtap.com, I had the opportunity to host a party in honor of FX's new hit show, "Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell". For the party I invited all of my friends and family to join me in a late-night soiree to check out the hit new show airing on FX. On August 9, 2012 at 11:00pm we got our Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell on! We drank and laughed. We had a great time!
The show is hosted by W. Kamau Bell and it takes an irreverent look at the social, racial and sex-based biases in our country. The show examines prevalent social inequities with a blunt and unyielding eye! Topics include police profiling, the hypocrisy of politics and religion, and great racial divide.
My guess loved the show! They laughed until they cried...despite the sensitive nature of the topics. The segments were fast-paced and lively, the delivery BLUNT and BRUTAL. Just the way W. Kamau Bell intended!
We also created a little fun of our own playing the TotallyBiased Toss-Up Game provided in the TB Digital Kit. We put our biases in a hat and tried to guess which belonged to each guest. Without giving it away, I am EMBARRASSED to admit I have friends and family who are sexist, racist, and all around bad people!
I made a short video of my own bias, which has to do with Facebook! See it here: BIAS VIDEO
To keep the laughs flowing, Crowdtap and FX provided links to a three minute highlight of the show (in cased you missed it!) and a look into Kamau's world:

Overall, a great party to kick off a great new series! My friends were tld to 'spread the love' and blast their friends about the show via Twitter and Facebook. We should all hate less, love more and laugh often. Sometimes the best medicine for social ills is to make fun of them! Right? Thanks Crowdtap and FX for the excellent opportunity!
