On Saturday, June 2 WOSU TV will begin the last membership drive of our fiscal year. The June drive is never easy, it’s hard to compete with The Memorial, graduation parties and beautiful summer weather! Never the less we push on and put together a line-up of program specials we hope you’ll enjoy.

We’ll kick off the drive Saturday night with a great new music program, Fab Four: The Ultimate Beatles Tribute. These guys are really good and as a special bonus we’ll have tickets to their concert in Columbus for those folks who decide to become a new member or are reminded it’s time to renew their membership. Another new program you’ll see, Kathy Smith’s Ageless Energy. Kathy will provide solutions to the “personal energy crisis” of viewers specifically in the 50+ demographic. She’ll redefine the concept of fitness for women and men, in both inspirational and practical terms. For the parents and grandparents out there, we have Kid Concoctions: Wacky & Wild. Learn to create homemade versions of popular toy store items, for pennies, using common household ingredients. How about spending time with your kids or grandkids making Flying Retro Rockets, Gooey Gunk, Hydro Jet Boats, Fruity Lip Gloss, or Ocean In A Bottle.

Some of our most popular programs will also be returning during this membership drive. Don’t miss your chance to spend time with Dr. Joel Furhman as he goes through his 3 steps to incredible health and Dr. Amen will apply his techniques to allow you to Use Your Brian To Change Your Age. Please check our June broadcast schedule listings for all air times and dates on your favorite program specials.

Most importantly I hope you’ll remember all the great programming WOSU TV has brought to you throughout this past year. If you enjoyed “Downton Abbey” or “Sherlock” , “American Masters: Johnny Carson” or “American Experience: Jesse Owens” then please consider becoming a member or renewing your membership during this June drive!

Decade of Discovery

Stacia Hentz — Thu, 24 May 2012 13:33:03 +0000

Every so often you come across a program that is just a little “out there”. “Decade of Discovery” from the BBC is one of those programs. The animals you see are so weird you can’t stop watching them. Did you watch the whole clip of the swimming sloth?

In the last decade scientists and explorers have discovered a staggering quarter of a million new species. We can’t show you all of them so “Decade of Discovery” showcases the most extraordinary in a special top ten list. These are the creatures no one dreamed even existed, the ones which have confounded scientists and caused the text books to be re-written. From the world’s longest insect – almost as long as a human arm, to one of the rarest mammals on Earth – the pygmy three-toed sloth. Oh, and don’t forget the carnivorous pitcher plant big enough for a human fist to fit inside. You never know what you’ll find until you go looking!

“Decade of Discovery” airs Wednesday, May 30 ay 10pm on WOSU TV with an encore presentation Thursday, May 31 at 10pm on WOSU PLUS.
