GAINESVILLE, FL – Redfruit Media is proud to announce its role as a key production partner alongside host and Appleosophy contributor Jacob Sedesse for the upcoming primetime special, “WUFT at CES 2026: Megabytes & Vegas Nights.” Highlighting the cutting-edge innovations of the 2026 Consumer Electronics Show, the hour-long documentary is scheduled to premiere Monday, February 23, at 9:00 p.m. ET on PBS affiliate WUFT-TV.
Produced in conjunction with our specialized staff at Redfruit Media, the program brings together expert commentary and appearances from Appleosophy contributors. This “raw and candid” documentary explores the world’s largest tech event, with a specific focus on robotics, AI, and the Florida-based companies leading the charge in these sectors for the station’s audience.
“When I pitched the program, I mentioned that I’d be traveling with my colleagues from Appleosophy and that I wanted to make them characters in our commentary,” Sedesse said. “They ended up being incredible production partners, shooting so much footage, and making the whole trip so much fun. I hope everyone can tell how much fun we had when they see it.”
“It was super exciting to compile a concise overview of some of the ‘Best in Show’ for CES 2026, featuring products that could be hitting the shelves in the very near future,” said Chris Grainger, COO of Redfruit Media. “Filming this TV special was rewarding but an extremely hard shift day-in and day-out. I cannot thank the team enough for their input on what is an incredible ‘first’ for this type of special.”
