The network says its own name: the Pizza Day roll call.

Filmed by We Them Media · Online

The shortest way to see what this network is. Maceo opens: “this is a happy pizza day from our community to yours,” and then everybody says who they are and where they are, one after another, for three minutes.

Nigeria several times over, including “I’m Walk With God, Abuja, Nigeria, representing We Them Media.” Kenya: “my name is Christine. I’m from Kenya, and I’m with We Them Media.” The United States, from Seattle, New Jersey and Philadelphia. Canada, from the lakeshore: “I’m Nedda with We Them Media, right from here, Lake Ontario in Toronto.” The Bahamas: “I’m Nelson from the Bahamas.” And, filed from a bicycle somewhere in between, “Marissa Schmarzo here with We Them Media. I am traveling around the U.S. by bicycle.”

No question is asked and nobody explains anything. It is a roll call, and it is the piece to send to anyone who wants to know whether the countries on this site are a claim or a list of people. Names as each person says them; the transcript below is from the original audio.
