- See Something Say Something - Heroes Keep the Surveillance State SafeThis week we're looking at the revamped "See Something Say Something" campaign out of New York. Originating in 2001 right after 9/11, the MTA and the Department of Homeland Security started this ad campaign to encourage people to report suspicious activity on public transport systems. Specifically, we look at a commercial from the unlikely poster-face of this campaign: Gregg T. from Long Island.Featuring our first ever guest, Vienna Poiesz!Watch along with us:https://youtu.be/ZkrABNrJN1kMore See Something Say Something Commercials:Melissa C - https://youtu.be/tJRkE8H58GEMontage - https://youtu.be/7sxiateCgrIArticles about See Something Say Something, and Gregg T.:https://www.vox.com/2016/9/28/13032740/gregg-t-internet-memehttp://knowyourmeme.com/memes/gregg-thttp://gothamist.com/2016/09/28/if_you_see_something_meme_something.phpSupport us on Patreon (even $1 per month helps a ton!)www.patreon.com/dillonwallGot a commercial we should watch?

About Pop Up
From the publisher's feed
We find commercials really interesting, and often hilariously or tragically out of touch, so join us as we nitpick the hell of out the mammoth industry of advertising. Every week on Pop Up, Dillon Wall (filmmaker) and Daniel Lanza Rivers (scholar and critic in cultural studies) watch a commercial, and then put it under the proverbial microscope. The show is often salient, and always entertaining... because for an industry built on knowing what we want, advertising sure gets it wrong a lot.
