What if your doctor prescribed you a daily dose of… exercise? 🏃

The Season 2 premiere of Health is Wealth explores how movement benefits our whole body—not just our waistline. We’ll look at whether parks and trails are worth the investment, and hit the skating rink to discover how team sports like roller derby can keep us motivated to stay active.

📺 Tonight at 8:30 on Ball State PBS.

Tune in and get moving with Health is Wealth!

Broadcast Signal Update | August 28, 2026
Our station is currently running on a temporary transmitter that only runs 600 watts of power vs. the normal 11,800 watts. Even within a 10-mile range of the transmitter, the signal is being lost sporadically. The parts needed to repair the transmitter will arrive in mid-October, and once the repairs are made, we should be back to full power. We appreciate your patience as we work to bring PBS back to your televisions.
In the meantime, you can still watch Ball State PBS using the following options:
▶️ Watch our broadcast in real time on the Ball State PBS Livestream page at ballstatepbs.org/livestream
