Check show page for airtimes

In This is Atlanta, PBA30 expands its Telly Award-winning series of mini-documentaries into a full-fledged monthly magazine show. Alicia Steele hosts this fascinating look at the people who make Atlanta an exciting place to live. We’ll explore society, history, and creativity— sometimes all at once! This is Atlanta visits one-of-a-kind locations in the metro area, dives in to some unusual hobbies, and brings you performances by some of the city’s most compelling artists.


Summer 2008

On the next This is Atlanta, take to the streets with the Seed and Feed Marching Abominable and take to the air with the DAIR project. Hit the court with some fearless wheelchair athletes, and try not to hit the wall at the Atlanta Downhill Challenge.
