Writer-producer Buck Wolf is your guide to weird news.

Experience:

Buck has been surfing the outer waves of pop culture for more than 10 years. As an entertainment producer for ABCNews.com, his column, "The Wolf Files," was one of the news site's most popular features, and he was a regular guest on ABC Radio affiliates throughout the country.

On the back pages of Us Weekly, Buck regularly takes on the likes of Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan as a member of the magazine's infamous Fashion Police.

A frequent quest on radio and TV shows, Buck was recently featured on TV Land's Myths & Legends debunking, among many other things, such notions as whether Mr. Ed was a zebra. (Not true!)

Education:

Buck graduated with Phi Beta Kappa honors from the State University of New York at Buffalo. As a founding editor of campus magazine Generation, his writing won a Scholastic Press Association Gold Circle Award for humor.

At Columbia University, Buck earned graduate degrees in both journalism and international affairs, and won a Reader's Digest Traveling Fellowship.

In 2005, Buck was asked to participate in a Western Knight Center fellowship, "Covering Entertainment in the Digital Age" at the University of California, Berkeley.

From Buck Wolf:

I became a weird news reporter the only way possible -- by accident. After grad school, I was covering international trade for The Journal of Commerce. Then, in 1995, I jumped to Court TV and spent the next two years covering the O.J. Simpson trial. After O.J., everything just seemed weird.

I moved to ABC in 1997, ostensibly to cover legal affairs, and spent a good part of my first year in the courtroom for the Oklahoma City bombing trial of Timothy McVeigh.

But after writing a piece on the cultural history of SPAM, my career was reborn. Among the memorable moments:

• Marching shoulder-to-shoulder with famed lion tamer Gunther Gabel-Williams, as he lead a herd of circus elephants through New York's Lincoln Tunnel.
• Inducting the original Bozo into the International Clown Hall of Fame after getting another clown removed for passing himself off as the TV legend.
• Providing live play-by-play, chew-by-chew coverage of the Nathan's Coney Island Hot Dog Eating Contest.
