Our Town: Terre Haute

The show is on location at the Clabber Girl Museum, celebrating the premiere of the WTIU documentary Our Town: Terre Haute. We talk with WTIU Producer John Winninger about the creation of the program and Mayor Duke Bennett tells us what Our Town: Terre Haute means to the people of the city.

ISU Sports Management

We tell the story of a Indiana State University's Sports Management Program that provides students with a unique opportunity: a chance to manage a drag racing team and compete against professional drivers.

The Saratoga Restaurant VIPS

One of Terre Haute's oldest family-owned and operated restaurants has seen its share of history. We talk with those who work there to show you who's walked through the doors of this landmark.

Saint Mary-of-the-Woods Equine Studies

Sometimes college can be as difficult as breaking a wild mustang.

Inland Aquatics

One of the most fascinating businesses in Terre Haute sits on the bank of the Wabash. We take a tour of Inland Aquatics to learn more about one of the world's largest salt-water facilities and the creatures that live there.

INFocus: I-69

INFocus host Stan Jastrebski brings us up to speed on the I-69 project that is quickly making its way North. It's a perfect preview for next week's episode of WTIU's INFocus, where the panel will discuss the construction and the controversy.
