What If...

"What If..." is a celebration of local (Nebraska) innovation, creativity and entrepreneurship. We're telling stories of interesting people with interesting ideas, but with a different approach than traditional public media series with quirky cold opens, outtakes and other fun; "peak behind the curtain" involvement of crew; and use of submitted original music. Plus lots of experimentation in the field and the editing suite, because telling the stories of innovators inspires us to try things too!
