About Jesse Ventura

Not one to shy away from controversy, the former Governor of Minnesota, wrestler, actor and Navy SEAL offers his electrifying insight into the nation's most pressing problems daily on social media & also on his new show "Off The Grid" on Ora TV. No suits, no censors, no red tape. Just Jesse Ventura as we like him, bold, brazen and bare-knuckled teaching us all to #stayvigilant. Jesse Ventura is all about opening the conversation & discussing anything & everything with his fans - no censors & no red tape. Because of this Jesse's team dedicates a weekly segment of "Off The Grid" to Jesse's fans with curated questions from social media in a segment he calls "From The People." In addition his team crowd-sources images, articles & quotes that inspire us to #StayVigilant across Jesse's social networks & blog. Our use of social media is unique because it truly is for the people, by the people allowing Jesse's passionate fan base to participate in "Off The Grid" discussions & help shape Jesse's new show.
