Every day thousands of motorists pass by countless history markers and say to themselves, "One of these days I'm going to stop and read that."

Well, that day has arrived...

On Drive By History (now in its 4th season, debuting Spring 2020), host
Ken Magos doesn't just stop and read those signs, he delves deeper into these histories with the help of staff historian Anthony Bernard, uncovering rare
details about these unique locations, individuals, and events.

What will you see this season?

From rivalries over state borders and early 20th century patents, to surprising discoveries about the work of Walt Whitman and Thomas Edison, to dark stories behind The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and The Culper Spy Ring, to our region's connection to early plantation life and aviation's first flights—we investigate the stories just waiting to be rediscovered in our own backyards.

Be sure to check out our Season 4 breakdown for more information on upcoming episodes.

What's New for Season 4?

Expanded Coverage:  for the first time, you can watch episodes of Drive By History on WNET (13) and WLIW (21), as well as NJTV (23)—and stream episodes directly from the NJTVOnline.org website!

An emphasis on some of the under-represented narratives that played major roles in our region's history.

An entire episode dedicated to the region's Suffrage Movement that helped secure ratification of the 19th Amendment on August 18, 1920.

We think Season 4 is our most exciting to date—new episodes premiering May  2020!
