THE BUNTZCAST

BUNTZCAST 13: Thomas Morton

Episode Summary

Thomas Morton pops by the Buntzcast. You will recall Thomas from his trailblazing investigative journalism with VICE, including such memorable video segments as "Bride Kidnapping in Kyrgyzstan," "Living in the Sewers of Colombia," and "Uganda's Moonshine Epidemic," among many others. Thomas also hosted Viceland's investigative series "Balls Deep," in which he observed Ramadan, went to Bear Week in Provincetown, and participated in a Pentecostal tent revival. We talk about his role as the keeper of VICE's infamous “gross jar,” how his first day of college in New York was 9/11/2001, being the first non-Juggalo to attend the gathering of the Juggalos, getting shot at by ISIS, and much more.
