Ramsey Anderson (DJ ramDOG) was performing as a DJ/ VJ at a nightclub called Neo's in Fayetteville, N.C. while in the Army in 1995 and asked himself, "Can DJs do more than just play their own music?" It was in that moment that he designed a dozen challenges for DJs that he thought would be entertaining for DJs and educational for audiences. That night while sitting at the bar he drew on a napkin the first version of the Wheel of Steele. He imagined a world where DJs were in the spotlight for their skills and knowledge, rather than mysterious music players.

Starting in 2002, with the help of many of Anderson's friends he produced the first episode of THINK YOU CAN DJ, First Nightclub DJ Game Show. Over the years the team has produced over a dozen episodes at nightclubs, TV studios and festivals.
