I Can't Stop Watching These Old Clips of Bernie Sanders' Cable-Access Show

After he was elected mayor of Burlington, Vermont, in 1981, Bernie Sanders took his message straight to the people via a cable access show called Bernie Speaks. It was a low-budget production. The credits were written in marker by hand; the intro music was a recording of "We Shall Overcome"; there was no script. Now, the station has posted dozens of episodes of Sanders' show, along with poorly lit footage of various mayoral functions and campaign events. The collection captures Sanders at his most unfiltered—and, at times, eccentric.
