Welcome
Dear Member,
Welcome to November!
I hope this letter finds you well and that you are finding time to relax and enjoy all your public television stations have to offer. Events and local productions are keeping us busy at CET and ThinkTV
First, I would like to thank our Board of Trustees for issuing a challenge grant. Starting November 24 and running through the end of the year, they will match all new gifts to CET and ThinkTV dollar for dollar. This is a great way to make year-end gifts go even further, and we appreciate our board’s generosity.
Our development team is hosting America’s Test Kitchen events in Dayton and Cincinnati this month and is gearing up for Giving Tuesday as well as Holiday Giving and Year-End Giving. More information is available in the station news section of this magazine.
On the local production side, our digital series, The Baking Journal, will be coming to you live on YouTube on November 4 as host Stephanie prepares a wonderful recipe for viewers. This month also brings new episodes of SHOWCASE with Barbara Kellar and The Art Show as well as the premiere of the third broadccast episode of our community affairs program, Brick by Brick: Solutions for a Thriving Community. Production
work continues on our next documentary, Jeffrey’s Journey, and our most recent documentary Willis “Bing” Davis: Reach High & Reach Back is available to stream.
PBS programming celebrates Veterans Day with Salute to Service, featuring American musical artist Mickey Guyton hosting an evening of special honors to our nation’s heroes. “Make Peace or Die: Honor the Fallen,” from Independent Lens, follows Marine veteran Anthony Marquez as he connects with the families of the fallen from his unit and finds peace for himself.
“Patsy Cline: Walkin’ After Midnight” from Great Performances explores the legend of Patsy Cline and the indelible mark she left on American music.
LEONARDO da VINCI, a two-part, four-hour documentary directed by Ken Burns, Sarah Burns and David McMahon, explores the life and work of the 15th-century polymath. Lidia Celebrates America follows Chef Lidia Bastianich on her 13th journey across America as she meets chefs, farmers and entrepreneurs.
From local productions to events to PBS programming – it’s all possible because of your support. For that, we

Thank You to Rick Steves and the Cincinnati Pops
We had three long, wonderful days with Rick Steves and our friends at the Cincinnati Pops in September. We had dozens of cameras rolling as Rick Steves shared the stories of his travels alongside an audio track of some of Europe’s most enchanting symphonic works. We are deep in production on the resulting film and are so excited to be able to share it with you – and PBS audiences around the country – in 2025. Stay tuned for more information!
Get Ready for Giving Tuesday and Year-End Giving!
Although this is the November issue of the magazine, the holiday season is already upon us and year-end giving is ramping up! Here are two dates we wanted to add to your calendar:
December 3: With Thanksgiving being later in the month this year, Giving Tuesday has been moved to December. Always falling on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, Giving Tuesday is an international day of giving that encourages people to support their favorite causes, charities and non-profit organizations. Giving Tuesday has become a huge part of our year-end giving goals and we appreciate your support! You can donate early at CETconnect.org or thinktv.org.
December 31: If you are interested in making a Qualified Charitable Donation, those donations must be received by December 31. If you’re at least 70 1/2 years of age, now is a great time to reach out to your plan administrator about next steps. If you are considering CET or ThinkTV as a recipient of a donation and have questions, please contact our team:
CET: Dan Virzi - 513-345-6582 or dvirzi@CETconnect.org
ThinkTV: Laura Letton - 937-220-1647 or lletton@thinktv.org

If you’re looking further out, we also have thank you tickets available for the Shamrock Tenors concert on Saturday, March 22, at 7:30pm at the Schuster Center. The group is a powerhouse of talent embodied with silky smooth vocals, champion Irish step dancing and Ireland’s best multiinstrumentalists — integrating a flavorful mix of guitar, flute, fiddle, feadóg stáin (Celtic whistle) and the ancient bodhrán drum. The Shamrock Tenors take viewers on a journey through Ireland’s most beloved classic songs, in beautiful five-part harmony, performed with that cheeky Irish charm. Those tickets can also be found at thinktv.org/tickets. Great Minds don’t just think alike. They partner up.
