Become a Part of Our Newsroom’s Reporting! WFIU/WTIU News is excited to announce Inquire Indiana, where we get our story ideas right from you. We believe that great journalism starts with great questions. Where do our tax dollars go? Why are we called Hoosiers? What’s with the fish on top of the Monroe County Courthouse? You can ask us anything, silly or serious, about our state. Here’s how it works: You submit a question about Indiana that you’d like us to explore. We’ll run regular voting rounds so you can weigh in on what you most want answered. If your question is picked, a WFIU/WTIU reporter will work with you to find the answer. What do you wonder about the Hoosier state, its culture or people that you want WFIU/WTIU News to explore? Go to wfiu.org/inquireindiana and let us know.

Hoagy Carmichael
Speaking of traditions (and well we might, with Thanksgiving on the way), Just You And Me will pay an annual tribute to Hoosier jazz-andpopular-song hero Hoagy Carmichael on Thursday, November 22 (which happens this year to be both Hoagy’s birthday and Thanksgiving). Earlier in the week, on Tuesday, November 20, we’ll celebrate the 50th anniversary of the release of the Beatles’ White Album with jazz interpretations of the music from that landmark double-LP by Ramsey Lewis, George Benson, and others. On Wednesday, November 21, we’ll reconstruct an all-star Indianapolis jazz concert 60 years after it took place. And on Thursday, November 15, WTIU producer Todd Gould joins us to discuss his new documentary about Indiana’s legendary Gennett record label. Happy Thanksgiving from the WFIU jazz department!
