marissapina 🍉🌈

PBS FILM CLUB has already changed the way I see the world and that’s why @marissapina and I created it. From PBS documentaries, we dive deeper into pop culture, history, science and media in a way that enriches viewers and leaves them just a bit smarter and empathetic with the worlds around them. Our first episode centered on what does it mean to belong, body image and medical interventions from the lens of the little people community. Link in the bio! We couldn’t have launched episode 1 without an incredible, supportive team at @pbsds @pbs @independentlens @blue73creative and we have 9 more episodes to share!

Don’t worry, I am always asking the hard hitting questions 🫣 check out our new episode of PBS Film Club on @pbsds PBS Docs YouTube channel now! #tmnt🐢 #turtle #conservation #reptile #herpetologia

Who’s the greatest nature presenter of all time? 🌿🎥 Sir David Attenborough? Steve Irwin? Jane Goodall? (…Joe Exotic? 👀) @PBS Film Club co-hosts @itslucky__ and @marissapina sat down with herpetologist Dr. Earyn McGee (@afro_herper ) to talk about the legacy of David Attenborough, how nature television changed the way we see our planet, and why conservation media has historically lacked diversity. Who shaped your love of nature? Drop your take in the comments! Watch the newest film club episode and "The Nature Show That Changed TV Forever" now on the PBS Documentaries channel!

What's your favorite nature program? In honor of Attenborough's 100th birthday, we debated who the greatest nature hosts are (swipe to see the line up) alongside @afro_herper , who helped us discuss something about these nature programs we never realized, maybe you can figure it out just by looking at the board 👀 #nature #attenborough

Happy birthday to my best friend, the love of my life, my favorite human, and the best cat dad out there. I love you so much, here’s to whatever adventures lie ahead for 38! 💖✨

This year we got our nomination for PBS Film Club @thewebbyawards 🥹 it’s such a full circle moment. @itslucky__ and I have been working on this project for almost two years now. We started out in our homes just talking about documentaries we loved for social posts. We expanded to doing them together, virtually. And just this last week we filmed a long form pilot episode, which is coming very very soon. We’ve tried for a Webby for two years now, last year we received an honor, but this year?! THIS YEAR WE ARE COMING FOR THE WIN! Please help us accomplish this goal - the link to vote is in my bio. 🥹💖✨ #webbyawards #pbsfilmclub #pbs #webbys

From hissing at Hugo all the time, to laying together for naps, Winston has come a long way in being a big bro and it couldn’t be cuter ❤️

been on a sourdough journey this year and this is when I knew I had cracked the starter code. 💁🏽‍♀️ #dmv #sourdough #bake #bulkfermentation

Did you learn about the Wilmington Massacre in school? We didn't. Fortunately, AMERICAN EXPERIENCE's American Coup: Wilmington 1898 taught us all about it. #pbs #blackhistorymonth #WilmingtonMassacre

I’ve been all over the place with how I feel the past two weeks. There’s so much going on and I’ve been fighting with my body nonstop. Allergies, being sick to my stomach, anxiety, losing my voice. So much of me didn’t want to go to my makeup sewing class last night, but I knew I’d feel better if I went. By the time I walked out the door with a tote bag I had made by hand, I felt so much better. Show up. For yourself, your friends, your family, your hobbies. Even when you don’t want to leave your house 💖 #dmv #sew #learntosew #mentalhealth
