As early humans spread out across the world, their toughest challenge was colonizing the Americas because a huge ice sheet blocked the route. It has long been thought that the first Americans were Clovis people, who arrived 13,000 years ago. But an underwater discovery in Mexico suggests people arrived earlier — coming by boat, not on foot. [Originally aired in 2015]

How a Puerto Rican Auto Shop in Philly Views the 2024 Election | VOCES: Latino Vote 2024

PBS 2024-10-16 | Official website: to.pbs.org/3MVwiKy | #VocesPBS
Marz Auto Central is a fixture of the predominantly Puerto Rican community in North Philadelphia. In between oil changes, dent repairs and wheel alignments, mechanics, customers and neighborhood pundits—mostly young, Caribbean Latino men—hang out to discuss the latest news and political gossip. Co-owner Monica Parilla, who came to Philly from Puerto Rico in the early 90s, plays the role of in-person content moderator. Marz is a spot for in-person and unfiltered conversation that is nonetheless respectful and playful. Over the last few years, the shop has become something of a makeshift political forum for topics as wide ranging as the presidential debate, the economy, and conspiracy theories. All the while, everyone is trying to make each other laugh.

Ancient Rome: A City of Immigrants | Life in Ancient Times with @DariusArya

PBS 2024-10-15 | Examine the multiculturalism that defined Imperial Rome, a city of nearly a million people drawn from across the Roman Empire. Much like the melting pot of modern New York, ancient Rome was home to a vast array of cultures, with immigrants bringing their own customs, languages, and gods to the capital. Rome's reputation for embracing outsiders can be traced back to its foundation myth, where Romulus created a safe haven for anyone who sought refuge, from shepherds to runaway slaves.

The city’s neighborhoods reflected its diversity, with enclaves like Little Italys and Chinatowns emerging as people from around the empire settled and integrated into Roman society. Many inhabitants of Rome were enslaved, but through the system of manumission, many became liberti (freed people) who could participate in civic life and gain Roman citizenship. Another group, the peregrini, foreign workers who never became citizens, added to the complexity of Roman society.

Big Cats 24/7
Wildlife Cinematographers Gordon Buchanan, Vianet Djenguet and Anna Dimitriadis join forces with the Natural History Film Unit, Botswana led by Brad Bestelink and his local camera team. Following individual lions, cheetahs and leopards for six months, over two extreme seasons, this documentary shows their battle to survive in an increasingly challenging world. From unprecedented wildfire to flood and extreme drought, the cats and camera crew are tested to their limits. A revolution in low light camera technology means the series showcases previously unseen behavior at night; cutting-edge drones keep track of the big cat’s movements like never before, and combining the raw endeavor of an expedition with premium natural history footage gives the show a contemporary new approach.

A First-Time Voter’s Complicated Path Navigating Family and Politics | VOCES: Latino Vote 2024

PBS 2024-10-02 | Official website: to.pbs.org/3MVwiKy | #VocesPBS
Jerry Reyes was born and raised in the heart of California’s Central Valley, surrounded by a sweltering expanse of industrial agriculture. He never worked in the fields, but his parents and grandparents did – picking the very grapes that Cesar Chavez once boycotted. And while Jerry is a citizen, his family members were all undocumented and at risk of deportation over the years and administrations.

Sitting at a crowded taquería, Jerry talks about the upcoming election, and describes what matters to him as a 24-year old, first-time voter: he wants to “make money.” And while he concedes he himself is a product of immigrants, he thinks it’s time to close the border. Jerry sells insurance, is a registered Republican, and is voting for Trump. This decision has meant multiple family members will no longer speak to him, a consequence Jerry believes is an unfortunate necessity of being a “free thinker.”

The Issues that Matter to a Future Voter | VOCES: Latino Vote 2024

PBS 2024-09-25 | Official website: to.pbs.org/3MVwiKy | #VocesPBS
Back in 2020, when Francisco Chavero was 12 years old, he canvassed with his mother for then presidential candidate Bernie Sanders in Nevada. Now at age 17, Francisco is looking ahead to the day he can vote, in two years time. Right now he says he supports some Democratic policies such as immigration reform, but also agrees with Republicans when it comes to issues related to the economy. What does Francisco’s story reveal about the evolving dynamics of the youth vote? Are younger voters more likely to identify as independents when compared to older voters? We will also highlight Francisco’s political evolution - how does he feel about candidate Kamala Harris after expressing criticisms about the age of the candidates before Harris entered the race?

Teenage Siblings Act Like Cubs Instead of Adult Male Lions | Big Cats 24/7 | PBS

The threat from intruder lions is particularly high for the sub-adult males in the Xudum Pride. Nkgonne and Colin may be physically larger than cubs, but these inexperienced two-year-olds hardly act like nearly independent male lions. Instead, the siblings clown around together, even taking their outlandish behavior into the trees.

The pressure is on for Pobe to make a kill. She’s the only resident female cheetah in the Xudum area, but survival is still hard, even for a smart and experienced hunter like her. Cheetahs may be fast, but it takes energy, and they need time to recover after a chase. Fortunately, lying low is also the perfect hunting strategy when pursuing impalas.

How Rome Fed A Million People (Before Modern Farming) | Life in Ancient Times with @DariusArya

PBS 2024-09-10 | Ancient Rome was a city of 1 million inhabitants. How were they fed? With bread! We’ll explore feeding Rome by baking bread just as they did in Rome and Pompeii. We’ll also explore ancient bakeries in Ostia Antica and the tomb of a baker!

Bread, olive oil and wine were the most famous commodities imported to Rome- the Mediterranean diet- but the most important commodity for the masses (for the sheer caloric value) was bread. In this episode we’ll look at the complex infrastructure that made it all possible, as grain was mostly imported from North Africa, Sicily, and Spain.

Thermal Cameras Capture Lions On a Midnight Hunt | Big Cats 24/7 | PBS

PBS 2024-09-05 | Official website: to.pbs.org/4fIVkd1 | #BigCatsPBS
Thermal cameras capture seven female lions moving in on a herd of tsessebes. With night vision six times greater than humans, the lions quickly spread out under the cover of darkness undetected. This time, the females enlist more help from the pride – three sub-adult males. But that also means less food to go around, and the lionesses and cubs go hungry again despite their successful kill.

Big Cats 24/7
Wildlife Cinematographers Gordon Buchanan, Vianet Djenguet and Anna Dimitriadis join forces with the Natural History Film Unit, Botswana led by Brad Bestelink and his local camera team. Following individual lions, cheetahs and leopards for six months, over two extreme seasons, this documentary shows their battle to survive in an increasingly challenging world. From unprecedented wildfire to flood and extreme drought, the cats and camera crew are tested to their limits. A revolution in low light camera technology means the series showcases previously unseen behavior at night; cutting-edge drones keep track of the big cat’s movements like never before, and combining the raw endeavor of an expedition with premium natural history footage gives the show a contemporary new approach.
