Moody RTF alumnus Chet Garner explores stunning Texas landscapes in new PBS docuseries
Chet Garner is a familiar face to many in Texas. As the host of the Emmy Award-winning PBS show “The Daytripper,” Garner has taken audiences to towns throughout Texas, highlighting some of the hidden gems the state has to offer. This Earth Month, the Moody College of Communication Radio-Television-Film alumnus partnered with The Nature Conservancy (TNC) in Texas to showcase the incredible lands and waters TNC has protected throughout the state.
“This was a bit of a dream project,” Garner said. “We’ve gone on day trips for 16 seasons now and people have connected to the stories we tell so when The Nature Conservancy approached us, they had this big accomplishment, they’ve protected a million acres of Texas land, and they needed to tell the story in a way that resonated with people.”
