Todd , you just finished the 500th Behind The Bunker Show …. Amazing . What are the origins of the show ? The show started after our first attempt at a live broadcast . We had connected a security camera to a computer as a webcam to stream coverage of an indoor paintball series we were running . It worked well enough and caught the attention of a lot of people even though the feed was super slow and the quality of the picture was terrible at best .
For the next event , we bought a webcam and added a manual video switcher . Above the field we had a couch set up with a few commentators , sort of a retro rec room effect . That was fun and even a bigger success . I got to thinking , if we did a video show and streamed it live , it would be a great way to market our paintball field , Flag Raiders . I soon realized after a few shows that is was not just our customers that were watching , but people from all over the world as well . They all were hungry for paintball content so we opened up our format and talked about paintball around the world and the show was born .
On the earliest shows we had myself ( Todd Ancich ) and Joe Kimpson in studio and people like Wolf , Catshack and many others would send in videos on the chosen topic for each show . After the first few episodes , we added guests like Thomas Taylor , Ed Evans from Exalt and Travis Lemanski , really
