"The Artman," who is an intern at the station, co-hosts the show "BeLive: Wrestling Talk with DWF" with his brother.

"Every Easter Sunday we beat up a priest," The Artman says.

The Artman says that a lot of people recognize his brother at the mall because of their show, and that a lot of people watch CCTV in Cambridge.

"Everyone loves wrestling in Cambridge for some reason," he affirms.

Regardless of the controversial nature of some of its shows, CCTV members say the station provides a great introduction to video and television production. CCTV offers classes in video production and computer technology, and free or low-cost access to production equipment.
