Unfiltered is a new Yahoo News interview series documenting unflinching and unapologetic voices of everyday Americans. Citizen vs. immigrant, uber-wealthy vs. working poor, alt-right vs. antifa, Republican vs. Democrat, gun rights vs. gun control… the U.S. seems more divided than ever. From a transgender individual serving in the armed forces to an alt-right activist living in a diverse community, we will highlight and celebrate differing viewpoints of some of the more polarizing issues we face as a country today.
Episodes will feature the show’s producers, Brian Prowse Gany and Joyzel Acevedo, discussing each interview and offering behind-the-scenes stories and exclusive content. Catch new episodes of Unfiltered every Friday.

‘Youth sports is supposed to be innocent ... we need parents to stay outta the way.’
Sports referee Brian Barlow has seen all kinds of youth game brawls – either in person or on video – and has had enough. He’s the man behind a growing Facebook page titled Offside, and his message is simple: If you have video of parents behaving badly at a youth sports event, he’ll pay you $100 for it. That video will then go on Offside – to the amusement, scathing ridicule, and dissatisfaction (or perhaps satisfaction) of his more than 31,000 followers.
