Austin's treasure of tunes is finally going digital—Austin PBS is bringing all fifty rip-roaring seasons of Austin City Limits to the digital domain, just in time for the show’s 50th anniversary, and in a high-speed collab, Google Fiber is boosting the effort with whiz-bang 20 Gig internet to speed things along.

Heads up, music buffs, and local color enthusiasts—Austin PBS has a fresh lineup that'll tickle your fancy for the 2024-2025 period, including a heartfelt documentary about John Aielli, the city's own quirky radio host, and if that's not enough Austin PBS has a new multi-platform news show in the works that's set to shake up local airwaves later in 2024, promising to deliver scoops on all things politics, education, economy, and culture.

The archive extravaganza isn’t limited to ACL either; Central Texas is getting its own digital memory lane packed with half a century's worth of local programming like “Central Texas Gardener” and “Overheard with Evan Smith”, as the partnership with Google Fiber lets local historians and music diehards relive bits of Austin’s soul that once flickered through television tubes.

In the spirit of more than just music, Austin PBS, as CultureMap Austin reports, is on a roll of a slew of original programs including "Moon Shadow", "Shaking It Up: The Life and Times of Liz Carpenter", and "Chasing the Tide", plus fans can cozy up to "Live From the LBJ Library With Mark Updegrove...", a series poised to prod and probe the minds of today's thought leaders.

And for those who love live music, mark your calendars—May 23 at 7:30 pm at the Austin Media Center, Austin’s Christian Wiggs Big Band is joining up with Benny Benack III for a showstopper set to be taped by Austin PBS, but if the couch is where you do your best exploring, fear not, all of these Austin PBS treasures will be landing on KLRU-TV, their website, and app.
