Creating PCN Profiles

By: Morgan Hall, Assistant Producer

For over two decades, Profiles has showcased the wide range of talent that exists in the state of
Pennsylvania. The show reminds us that national stars aren’t just from New York or California; they’re
our neighbors and colleagues. The show features interviews with various Pennsylvanian celebrities and
shows viewers that these are people not unlike us. Each episode provides a 30-minute, uncut one-on-
one interview.

This season premiers with Carol Stoudt, the founder of Stoudt Brewing in Adamstown, Pa. and the first
woman brewmaster since before prohibition. Ms. Stoudt talks with us about all aspects of her journey to
becoming one of the legends of American craft brewing after a distinguished 33-year career.

Later in the season, we sit down for an extended interview with cable titan David Cohen, the Senior
Executive Vice President at Comcast. Mr. Cohen has done it all. After graduating from Swarthmore and
the University of Pennsylvania law school, he went on to run the law firm Ballard Spahr, serve as second-
in-command to then-Mayor Ed Rendell, and oversee the progression of Comcast into a telecom giant.

Over the years, we’ve seen a broad range of guests on Profiles, ranging from Olympic medal winners to
politicians. All of them have one thing in common: Pennsylvania. PCN Profiles airs state-wide on Sunday
nights at 8:30PM. Paid subscribers to the PCN Select streaming service can also watch interviews on
demand.
