On Thursday, August 21, 2025 PBS SoCal partnered with WETA and the Natural History Museum to host a special screening and panel event for the season two finale of "Human Footprint."

SoCal’s Senior Director of Programming & Scheduling Dwyane Bright welcomed over 200 guests introducing a clip from the latest season of PBS SoCal’s award-winning, locally-produced environmental series "Earth Focus" and "Human Footprint." A panel discussion, moderated by Dr. Cara Santa Maria (and "Earth Focus" narrator), featured series host Dr. Shane Campbell-Staton, Associate Curator and Excavation Site Director at the La Brea Tar Pits Dr. Emily Lindsey and series director Nathan Dappen.
