Our Christmas present came a little early this year when the folks at the Oklahoma Educational Television Authority (OETA) invited us to join their network. The details are still being ironed out, but what we do know is Two Wheel Oklahoma will begin airing statewide in April 2010. That means anyone in Oklahoma will be able to watch the show! Not to mention a few foreigners in parts of Texas, Kansas, Arkansas and Missouri.
To say we're excited would be a huge understatement!We'll start working on new episodes very soon. We'll also be knocking on doors to drum up support from sponsors who can help underwrite our production costs. On commercial television underwriting is called "advertising." In the world of public television, underwriters help fund the program in return for a thank you before and after each episode. Depending on your level of support that thank-you might be a simple message, your company logo or a 15-second spot.
