THE BEATLES: EIGHT DAYS A WEEK THE TOURING YEARS

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 25 AT 8PM ON WXXI-TV

The Beatles: Eight Days a Week explores the history of the Fab Four from their early days in Liverpool to their last concert in San Francisco in 1966. The film, by Oscar-winner Ron Howard, reveals how the foursome united to become the global phenomenon that was “The Beatles.” The film features rare and never-before-seen archival footage of shows and interviews, plus new interviews with Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and numerous prominent observers.

Stay tuned after the broadcast for a special half-hour Beatles tribute concert with Rochester’s own Jane Mutiny and special musical guests.

THANKSGIVING DAY SPECIALS THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 23, STARTING AT 8AM ON CLASSICAL 91.5 DETAILS INSIDE >> PULP FICTION SATURDAY NIGHT REWIND SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 18 AT 9:30 PM AT THE LITTLE THEATRE DETAILS INSIDE >> MOVE TO INCLUDE BRINGS YOU A PODCAST, A PRIME-TIME TV SHOW, AND A SUNDANCE-WINNING DOCUMENTARYIN NOVEMBER As part of MOVE TO INCLUDE, a partnership between WXXI and the Golisano Foundation designed to build a more inclusive community by inspiring and motivating people to embrace different abilities and include all people in every aspect of community life, we are proud to bring you a new podcast series, a primetime special, and screening of an award-winning documentary in November.

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 13 AVAILABLE ON ITUNES, STITCHER, OR GOOGLE PLAY When young adults grow up and finish school they need to figure out what to do next - and where they belong. Exited will bring you the stories of eight young people with disabilities and their families as they navigate life transitions. We meet Nate, a high school student and aspiring artist who struggles with tests. Maggie, Jesse, and Patrick — three students enrolled in transition programs at different colleges. Akin, who leaves high school and enrolls in a day habilitation program. Carrie works at a sheltered workshop, for now, and Teale, who likely won’t be able to take part in a workshop of her own because they are being phased out. Barbara, a full time care taker to her son, Jonathan asks what his future may look like as he gets older. Exited launches on November 13, but you can subscribe to it now on your favorite podcast app. WXXI’s Inclusion Desk is a multi-platform reporting effort by WXXI News to inform and transform attitudes and behavior about inclusion. It is funded in part by Move to Include and the Golisano Foundation.

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 13 AT 9PM ON WXXI-TV Abandoned by his birth parents and unable to speak for himself, DJ Savarese (“Deej”) found not only a loving family but also a life in words, which he types on a text-to-voice synthesizer. As he makes his way through high school and dreams of college, he confronts the terrors of his past, obstacles to inclusion, and the sometimes paralyzing beauty of his own senses. In his advocacy on behalf of other DEEJ nonspeaking autistics, he discovers what having a voice can truly mean. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 14 AT 7PM AT THE LITTLE THEATRE Dina, an outspoken and eccentric 49-year-old in suburban Philadelphia, invites her fiancé Scott, a Walmart door greeter, to move in with her. DINA SEE THE LITTLE PAGE FOR MORE!

Thank you and best wishes for a happy and healthy holiday.

HISTORIC HOUSEPARTS got into the business of selling architectural salvage and renovation materials back in the eighties in response to the abundance of rehabbing occurring in the market at the time. Current co-owners Chris Jones and Jim Wolff moved into the South Wedge in 1991 and became regular customers of the original business, and eventually purchased the place. With over 20,000 square feet of space to explore, and over 25,000 items housed o n its website, Historic Houseparts is the go-to resource when it comes to the preservation (and celebration) of the past. Chris Jones offers additional insight on her business. Q. What is Historic Houseparts’ core philosophy? Old is better! Preservation of our architectural heritage is vitally important to all communities to teach people about their history. Learning about a building’s nuances teaches us about the lives of the people who lived in these old properties. Reuse of old buildings is not only better for the environment but it also preserves the character of neighborhoods.

EVENTS Q. How does Historic Houseparts’ architectural salvage process work? We purchase salvage rights from a property’s owner then our crew will go in and salvage the usable materials from a property. Q. Most prized find to date? Tiffany shades and some beautiful stained glass windows, that of which I have trouble parting with! Q. Favorite part of the job? I really enjoy seeing the “after” pictures of our customers’ projects. We offer everything from hardware, woodwork and doors, to lighting and plumbing, so it’s great when we can help out and then see the result. And it’s fun to be a resource for flms and TV shows! Q. What’s in store for the holidays? We’re creating our own decorative accessories nowadays, thanks to our creative staff! Upcycling from our huge inventory has been a fun new avenue to explore. Items are on our website, in our Etsy store, and at local shows like the Granger Christkindl Market. CHRIS JONES Historic Houseparts www.historichouseparts.com PHOTO: STEPHEN S.

WXXI’s Indie Lens Pop-Up Series kicks off a whole new season with one of the most acclaimed films of the year and an Oscar nominee for Best Documentary, INDIE LENS POP-UP I Am Not Your Negro. In 1979, James Baldwin wrote a letter to his literary agent describing his next project, to be called Remember This House. The book was to be PRESENTS a revolutionary, personal account of the lives and successive assassinations of three of his close friends — Medgar Evers, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr. But at the time of Baldwin’s death in 1987, he left behind only 30 completed pages of his I AM NOT manuscript. The film envisions the book he never finished. The result is a radical, up-to-the-minute examination of race in America, using Baldwin’s original words, spoken by Samuel L. Jackson, and with a flood of rich archival material.

WRUR-FM 88.5 Spotlight A PRAIRIE HOME COMPANION SATURDAYS AT 6PM ON WRUR-FM

If you showed up on July 6, 1974, at the Janet Wallace Auditorium at Macalester College in Saint Paul and plunked down your $1 admission to attend the very first broadcast of A Prairie Home Companion, you were in select company. There were about 12 people in the audience. But those in attendance thought there were worse ways to spend a Saturday afternoon, so Garrison Keillor and the APHC team went on with the show for another 42 years. In the fall of 2016, Chris Thile (pictured) took over at the helm of A Prairie Home Companion. Garrison commented: “Chris is my man. … He is, I think, the great bluegrass performer of our time and he is a beautiful jazz player. There just isn’t anything he can’t do — and he is very enthusiastic about live radio.” Monthly program listings and highlights: classical915.org HD 91.5-1 THANKSGIVING DAY SPECIALS CLASSICAL 91.5 PROGRAMMING Whether you’re in the kitchen cooking your holiday Monday-Friday Saturday Sunday feast or at the dinner table enjoying that meal with family and friends – Classical 91.5 has just the mix of beautiful music for your Thanksgiving Day 6:00a Classical Music Classical 24 with John Andres festivities on Thursday, November 23. 7:00 Classical Music with Brenda Tremblay GIVING THANKS: A CELEBRATION OF 8:00 FALL, FOOD & GRATITUDE With Heart and Voice Performance Today with Fred Child 8:00AM ON CLASSICAL 91.5 9:00 with Peter DuBois John Birge presents the warmth of great music and memorable words with special guest chef Jacques 10:00 The Score with Edmund Stone Pepin and his granddaughter Shorey with whom he Classical Music co-authored his most recent book, “A Grandfather’s 11:00 with Julia Figueras Fascinatin’ Rhythm w/ Michael Lasser Sunday Baroque Lessons.” Also The Splendid Table’s host Francis Classical Music with Suzanne Bona Lam shares his James Beard Award-winning NOON Live from Hochstein with Marianne Carberry Thanksgiving essay about immigrants.
