Best of Wild Nevadacast - Ep 001 Mark Maynard, Producer/Director, Piconland

We're ending the year with some favorite podcasts from the series. TMCC professor Mark Maynard undertook a documentary film that took him across the state of Nevada tracing the history and stories behind the (now) official state drink, the Picon Punch. This was recorded in 2024 so a few things have changed, like the Picon's ascendance to officialdom, and the unfortunate end of "The Fe," but the story Mark tells about the history of the Picon and his journey through the production of his documentary remain fascinating. This podcast will be broadcast on PBS Reno Thursday, December 11 at 8 p.m. and repeat on Sunday, December 14 at 6.p.m.
