As admin of the website, I thought I would say a little bit about myself. 
I thought it would be a good idea to share a bit about myself, as it makes the forum experience much more personal. Anyhow...
I'm 18 years old and from the Illawarra region of New South Wales, Australia. I have had an interest in Australian media since a very young age. One of my earliest memories is of seeing the 2001-02 Channel Nine Endboard and WIN Ident on my loungeroom TV sometime in Early 2002. I started to make my own mock TV Guides when I was 6 years old and I continued making them up until the age of ten. In January 2009, I started to record Australian TV content via VHS and although I have since stopped recording on VHS, I have continued to record Australian TV content ever since then. My first ever recording was of the 2008 Channel Nine endboard and NBN Ident on the 24th January 2009...through the use of my digital camera. As you can expect, the quality of the recording wasn't too good.
My interest in Australian TV would ultimately lead me to create an Australian-TV based YouTube channel in Early 2011, known as TheCjm75. But with not knowing how to convert my VHS tapes to digital and having several difficulties with my USB TV Tuner (which I had bought around the same time), the channel was doomed for failure; it only lasted for a month. On the 30th January 2013, I decided to create another YouTube channel. This YouTube channel would be based on comedy, as well as the one or two uploads of TV content. After a few months of having very little success with the channel, I decided to upload a 60 Minutes interview. To my surprise, the upload was a massive success. It received 2,000 views within the first 24 hours and it increased the exposure of my channel. I then decided to drop the "comedy" aspect of the channel and focus solely on uploading/recording Australian TV content. As a result, CX7 News was born. In early January 2016, I decided to rename the channel as South Coast TV.
As for popular culture, I started to take an interest in it in August last year. I've always had an interest in history and thinking ahead to the future, so I liked the thought of analyzing elements of pop culture over time and noticing similarities and differences. Not to mention, I had (and continue to have) a dislike for the then current pop culture, so I was interested in knowing how popular culture declined as much as it did.
That's a little information about myself. Thanks for taking the time to read it.
