The event, which begins at Noon Central on Saturday, November 6th and originates from the Texas Museum of Broadcasting and Communications in Kilgore, Texas, will feature the induction of twenty new broadcast professionals in a two-hour presentation combining video and live acceptance speeches by those being honored.
While the ticketed, onsite event is expected to be at capacity, fans can experience the program remotely, exclusively and in real time through Pickle Jar’s livestreaming platform. A $5 viewing pass is available through the ticketing portal at www.TRHOF.net.
TRHOF Executive Director Doug Harris says the alliance with PickleJar will bring the Hall of Fame’s mission and message to more people in more places than ever before.
“When we first learned of Pickle Jar’s revolutionary way of connecting fans and bands”, says Harris, “we were intrigued by its application to our needs. Judy Lakin, TRHIOF Inductee and PickleJar Board Member, was able to connect the dots for us and bring this historic broadcast to life for our inductees and their families and fans”.
PickleJar’s chief executive shares the Harris’ enthusiasm for this alliance.
“We are honored to be part of the celebration of these special Texas Broadcasters who have impacted so many lives over the years,” said Jeff James, chief executive officer of PickleJar. “The event is a tribute to the innovation and forward-thinking creativity inspired by those who have carried our industry into the era to make PickleJar a possibility. For that, we are grateful. A special thanks to 2022 Inductee Roger Allen, who was a mentor to me and without him, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
