Party Like It’s 1989 With These Vintage Local TV Clips From Austin’s KTBC

James Rambin January 22, 2021 Comment

First broadcast out of the Driskill Hotel in 1952, Austin's longtime local television channel KTBC was the city's first TV station, holding down channel number seven and owned for many years by none other than Texas royalty Lyndon and Lady Bird Johnson.

Going Up With Austin’s Elevator-Riding Enthusiasts on YouTube

James Rambin December 11, 2020 Comment

You ever take a few wrong clicks and find yourself on a completely unrecognizable side of YouTube? That's the basic story of how we came to enjoy the videos of the elevator enthusiast community -- a group of like-minded fans that, unlike many of us, appreciate elevators a lot more than the buildings they're inside. None of the downtown Austin condo, apartment, or office towers ...
