DESCRIPTION After four successful seasons as a digital series, TPT is excited to be working on a new season of Relish that will feature 30-minute episodes to be distributed via broadcast and streaming channels. Through extensive research in late 2022, TPT developed a plan to include more local chefs, restaurants, and community members, while also including more background information, including historical and cultural context. To test this new concept, TPT filmed a pilot episode in the spring of 2022 with two local chefs. The resulting episode serves as a launching point to a full season of 30-minute shows to be released beginning in the spring of 2024.

DESCRIPTION A quarter century after the stunning election of Jesse Ventura, the one-hour film for Minnesota Experience will look back at the origins, evolution, broader meaning, and surprising impact of one of the most famous, infamous, unpredictable, and enigmatic governors in American history. How did Jesse “the Body” Ventura transform himself from a pro-wrestler into Jesse “the Governor” of Minnesota? What does his journey say about civic engagement, challenging the system, and how American democracy works? How does Ventura’s softer side as a family man and his often-middle- of-the-road politics belie his pugilistic public presence? We will look back at the origins, evolution, broader meaning, and surprising impact of the most mercurial governor in Minnesota history.
