About News – JTV Jackson

News – JTV Jackson is a local Jackson media feed where sports coverage, community interviews, and studio banter share the same table. Its strongest recurring rhythm comes from The David Rice Show. Those episodes sound close to the action: high school basketball recaps, state-title recaps, sold-out gyms, live coverage plans, coach interviews, Facebook highlights, and quick checks on who plays next. The pace is brisk. A segment might start with Lumen Christi’s girls basketball title, move through Concord’s playoff run, then veer into Michigan basketball or Detroit sports television before landing back on the local schedule. That is the show’s natural shape. It is less polished-column commentary than local sports people comparing notes after watching the games, checking the scores, and getting messages from viewers. The details matter here. Schools, coaches, players, student sections, weather, gym size, and travel plans all become part of the coverage because they affect how local sports actually feel. The feed also carries a broader JTV community function through Monday Mornings Podcast episodes. Those conversations bring in local figures, with stories about Clark Lake, family, work, old routines, and how people are connected. The tone stays casual and accessible. It is comfortable with jokes about weather, spring break, airlines, pizza, college teams, and whatever just happened in sports while the episode was wrapping up. At its best, the feed gives listeners the immediacy of a regional broadcast without pretending to be a national desk. It knows the schools. It knows the gyms. It knows the online comments. It knows that a fourth-quarter run, a loud student section, or a coach’s postgame comment can matter as much as any headline. News – JTV Jackson is best for people who follow Jackson-area athletics and still care about the local names around them.

Made for: Built for Jackson-area sports followers, school communities, parents, alumni, and viewers who want local scores with the texture of the gym still attached. It also fits listeners who like community interviews with familiar local names.

What sets it apart: The feed pairs practical high school sports recap with JTV’s broadcast habits: live-game references, interview audio, weather talk, viewer comments, and local familiarity. It feels closer to a station rundown than a detached sports podcast.

The David Rice Show – Episode #122 | JTVApr 7, 2026

Michigan title talk and local TV hustle keep the episode moving.

The Michigan championship recap stays centered on the title, Elliott Cadeau's Most Outstanding Player nod, and Merez Johnson's put-backs against UConn.

The David Rice Show – Episode #118 | JTVMar 9, 2026

Michigan tornado updates, Jet Smith's 25-point night, and brisk local sports chatter keep this grounded and current.

Michigan tornado updates give way to a local sports roundup that feels close to the ground rather than packaged for broadcast. Jet Smith's 25-point night gives the basketball segment its center, and the home crowd reaction makes the regional trophy talk feel earned.

The David Rice Show – Episode #117 | JTVMar 3, 2026

District-final chatter and streaming questions anchor a loose, conversational local sports update.

March Madness month opens with a familiar local rhythm: high school basketball district finals first, then a long detour through the questions around Detroit Sportsnet and MLB.TV, with Tigers and Red Wings coverage at the center and the Pistons still hanging as a possibility.

The David Rice Show – Episode #116 w/ Doug Donnelly | JTVFeb 24, 2026

U.S. hockey, district basketball, and a heated Packers take keep the sports talk moving.

This JTV hour starts with the U.S. hockey gold moment, moves through medal-count chatter, then shifts to girls basketball around Napoleon and Lumen Christi before ending on a Mike McCarthy argument.

The David Rice Show – Episode #115 w/ Colorado State Rams Guard – Lexus Bargesser | JTVFeb 17, 2026

A loose local hoops interview that turns an eighth-grade spark into a Division I story.

The episode starts with local sports housekeeping and pointed banter before settling into Lexi Bargeser's path to Division I basketball. The strongest stretch follows the jump from an eighth-grade game to college attention, then into the summer after that and the steady work…
