Most people don't think about their own privilege. It's good for them to do that. This show looks like it'll be helping them to do that.

I don't watch MTV, though.

I miss the MTV of the 90s when it was about music. Remember Unplugged?

MTV no longer seems to have relevance with young people now that kids can listen to anything they want instantly on Spotify and YouTube. Carson Daly has been replaced by Kim Kardashian and "YouTube celebrities"
