BUNKER HILL — Two popular local programs return for new seasons on Smoky Hills Public Television in 2015. “Doctors on Call,” back for its 10th season, will premiere January 6 at 7 p.m., and “Real Ag” begins its new season January 8 at 7:30 p.m.

On “Doctors on Call,” medical professionals from throughout the state travel to Bunker Hill to provide information and answer questions from the viewing audience. Questions can be called in during the show or emailed prior to the broadcast.  The doctors selected each week have expertise in the topic chosen for that program.

Some of this season’s topics include women’s health, pain management, thyroid disorders, diabetes, cancer, men’s health, orthopedics, heart disease and digestive disorders.

To submit questions electronically on a specific topic, viewers can send an email to [email protected] or message through Twitter with the hashtag #DOCCall. Questions submitted through either email or Twitter must be received by noon on the day of the show. During the program, viewers can call (800) 337-4788.

Exploring the agriculture industry, “Real Ag” is a local production that appeals to everyone from the farmer to the consumer. Each week a new topic is investigated and explained with the assistance of host Kyle Bauer, general manager of KFRM radio.

This season, “Real Ag” will look at entomology, pecan farming, canola, plant pathology and other topics.

“Real Ag” airs on Thursday nights at 7:30 p.m.

SHPTV can be seen on Eagle Cable channels 9 and 609 (high-definition).
