First off, the Editorial Board & all of the contributors to Pencil Storm would like to wish everybody a Happy Thanksgiving and advance the hope that by this time next year we’ll be able to celebrate together safely.
Secondly, ‘round about 8 pm on Thanksgiving Night - since you’ll already be semi-comatose from turkey-induced tryprophan-intoxication from a dinner you had to fix yourself - you can watch WOSU-PBS’s coverage of the Willie Phoenix Way dedication ceremony on their Broad & High program.
Here’s the details, straight from the producers:
Message from Mary Rathke, segment producer, Willie Phoenix Way, WOSU-TV Broad & High
Hi everyone! I wanted to send you a friendly notice that we will be featuring our story on Willie Phoenix Way in this week's episode of "Broad & High" – Thursday, Nov. 26 at 8:00pm on WOSU-PBS. (It will also be repeated on Sunday, Nov. 29 at 9:30am.)
Here's a link to the Episode promo.
The story, as well as the full episode, will be available online later this week at www.wosu.org/BroadAndHigh, on our YouTube channel, as well as on our free WOSU Public Media mobile app. It'll also make its way to Facebook and IGTV. Meanwhile, be sure to follow us @BroadAndHigh on Twitter, FB and Instagram, where we'll be promoting the show all week.
Willie's music video will also premiere in this week's episode, and both his videos ("Suzanne" and "Raise Your Glass") will be archived at www.wosu.org/localtunes.
Okay, so there you go. By 8 pm you’ll be sick of college & pro football anyway (and the Steelers game doesn’t start ‘til 8:20), so switch over to channel 34 and catch yourself some Willie Phoenix. It can’t hurt ya. Happy Thanksgiving, everybody.
