The House Has Voted to Rescind Public Media Funding

This vote threatens federal support for programming on WITF — putting at risk educational programming, trusted news and emergency communications that our community depends on produced locally and from PBS and NPR. Now the proposal heads to the Senate.

Your voice is urgently needed. Call your senator and donate today to help protect the future of local public media.

Spice up your Monday with Chiliheads on WITF TV

A peculiar love story between humans and chili peppers that’s got some kick! 

Watch Chiliheads on WITF TV Monday, September 4 at 9pm. Or anytime you want with WITF Passport and the PBS or WITF app!
 

A journey as playful as it is evocative, Chiliheads takes us on the Hot Pepper Road to five countries — Canada, the United States, Mexico, Trinidad and Tobago and India — to meet lovers of hot peppers known as ‘chiliheads’ and discover the cultures that celebrate the consumption of this unique spicy fruit. By engaging farmers and chefs, scientists, historians and even psychoanalysts, the film deconstructs the incredible history of hot peppers and our crazy relationship to them, which include pushing the limits to produce the strongest pepper in the world. 

Watch Chiliheads on WITF TV on Monday, September 4 at 9pm. Or anytime you want with WITF Passport and the PBS or WITF app!
