Southwest Stories
In 2012, The Sun Runner began a new adventure, producing The Real Desert, with Steve Brown, a travel series for KVCR PBS TV. The Real Desert, with Sun Runner editor/publisher, Steve Brown as host (writer, and producer), began airing on KVCR PBS TV on September 16, 2013, and was broadcast twice a week to 5.7 million households across southern California for more than a year.
The second season saw a switch to partnering with co-producers, Turquoise MultiMedia, and a name change to Southwest Stories. That season began broadcasting twice weekly on KVCR PBS TV on March 16, 2015, and aired through May 12, 2016.
Season 3 is now in the works, with national distribution to all 350 PBS stations. Want to see Southwest Stories visit your area?
