DAVE & DAVE’S EXCELLENT ADVENTURES
“This show is Pittsburgh as seen through two regular
Pittsburgher’s eyes,” is how co-creator Dave Hallewell
describes the program. Hallewell, along with Dave Rhodes,
make up “the Dave’s” and have been regular correspondents
for OnQ, WQED’s live, nightly news magazine show, since it
began in 2000. Dave & Dave still contribute regular stories
to OnQ, as well as host, produce and edit the Dave & Dave’s
Excellent Adventures television series.
Dave & Dave’s Excellent Adventures airs every Saturday night at 10:30 on WQED. Repeats can
also be seen each Sunday afternoon at 1.
