URBAN CONVERSION follows fiscally conservative businessman and host Rodman Schley as he seeks to learn more about the sustainability movement. It is all in an effort to get on the same page as his wife Gina, who wants their family to lead an eco-friendly, environmentally conscious lifestyle. While Rodman enjoys living with all the modern conveniences of the city, Gina would rather move the family to a simple, low impact life in a rural setting. In the spirit of compromise, Rodman and Gina begin to seek ways to bring the country to the city and begin their own "Urban Conversion". Each episode goes beyond the buzzword to find out first-hand what the "green scene" is all about. Cultivating an urban farm, understanding backyard beekeeping, and learning about alternative fuels are just a few of the issues Rodman explores. Schley lends his common sense (and often humorous) perspective to the viewer through hands-on learning experiences, interviews with experts, and profiles of eco-leaders who have built their lives around living more sustainably. The series is set in Colorado, but takes the Schley family across the nation to cities like Detroit, where urban farming is helping to heal a community, and Washington D.C., where White House chef Sam Kass gives them an educational tour of First Lady Michelle Obama's vegetable garden.

By 6am, August 12th, 2017, the city of Charlottesville was already very hot and humid. Protestors and counter protestors amassed at Emancipation Park, many wearing body armor and wielding shields, clubs and guns. Self proclaimed neutral militias wore military fatigues and bore semi-automatic long rifles. If many showed up for a fight, they would soon find themselves immersed in a street brawl. The violence that occurred on August 12th shocked America and the world. National news and live streamers covered the rally in real time; beatings on the streets and in parking decks, a car driving into a crowd of counter protestors, killing one young woman.

THE LIVELY ONE: DICK BRANNAN'S RISE TO DRAG RACING FAME tells the unlikely story of a racing legend who captured multiple records and led Ford Motor Company to national prominence during the "golden age" of drag racing. In 1962, Dick Brannan, a virtually unknown driver, showed up at the Detroit Dragway in a Ford Galaxie to compete against some of the biggest names and fastest cars in drag racing. At the time, Ford was struggling to make a mark in this popular sport, falling behind fellow Motor City auto makers in capturing the attention of the youth market at the track. Ford cars were generally considered too heavy to win. However, that changed the day the 22-year-old underdog went on to beat more than 60 other cars and take first place. Following his win, Ford appointed Brannan race coordinator of their factory drag team. Brannan's racing knowledge and automotive innovations would help rewrite the history of one of America's most iconic brands. Narrated by actor Peter Coyote, THE LIVELY ONE chronicles Brannan's career, his contributions to the sport, and the ways in which he transformed Ford drag racing during the 1960s. The film features interviews with Brannan, fellow drag racers, car enthusiasts, and automotive and racing historians.
