Hey! News!

I went for another run this evening, and soon enough, perhaps, it will become something between habit and de rigueur once again.

Today I got in 3.1 miles, a full 5K, if you will. And I didn’t run-walk it 50-50. I’m told that, given my particular foot issue the run-walk interval is the ideal way to ease back into things. Take it easy is the strategy, and I’m fine with that. But I did run more than I walked today. It’s a no particular-goal-progression I’m after here.

While still stretching, taping, doing exercises and icing if necessary. So if you see my feet going weird directions, it is probably deliberate.

Probably.

Here are the shows the news crews produced on Tuesday night. First the newsier news show, now with a new intro:

And then there’s the pop culture news show:

Hopefully that show will get a new intro soon, as well.

But, right now, I need an outro.

…. Bye!

The first of the last new things

For your viewing pleasure, here are the first episodes of the last new shows semester.

First, here’s the late night show. If you don’t get it, it’s not for you.

Then again, if you don’t chuckle at it, that says a lot about your sense of humor, doesn’t it?

Probably not. That show has specific goals. Specific goals. Consistent goals. This is the third or fourth semester of that show, and they’ve developed running themes and callback jokes and, most importantly, they really enjoy themselves. It’s a creative, entertaining show, if you understand their brilliance.

And here’s the award-winning Breakfast Club. This is now fully a legacy program. All of the original crew and hosts and contributors have graduated. It was the spring term of 2017 when I was insisting that they needed more than a simple idea, and needed a concept, outlines, shot sheets, a show bible, something more than “We wanna.”

They fought hard to make it happen, and it did. And just before the last of the original people graduated last spring they started winning prominent awards. This week they’ve started the cycle again:

And these ladies will be bringing us the news a bit later in the week:

News to be used

As of today all of the student shows are up and running. The semester’s first episodes of the morning show and the comedy show will be airing on Monday or so, but I have been remiss in sharing the other things that have already rolled out this week.

Here’s the news:

And the vitally important pop culture updates:

Catch all of your sports:

And here are people talking about sports:

It’s a good solid start to the year. They’re going to produce some great stuff as the year progresses.

But now: the weekend. Have a good one.

Show – show – show, here we go!

Back to it tonight. The gang at IUSTV kicked off their 2019-2020 production schedule today, and up first was the award-winning IUSTV sports crew. Here’s the control room view:

Last year one of their on-air folks won a statewide anchor of the year honor. A different statewide contest saw the sports gang sweep a particular sports reporting category. And now they are back to improve on where they left off last spring.

The opportunities here are big ones, and they take advantage of them with great effect. Staying at work late is only fun because they get so much out of it.

Here’s one of the shows they produced tonight:

Looks like the other will be uploaded tomorrow.

For just ice

I’ve been working on this theory for about a decade.

This is the first time the Seagal Theory has failed.

Then again, why watch any of those better films when you could see …
