Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. "Family Style" with Chef Jeff does not lay out its learning objectives and it doesn't have to--it has them throughout the program. Bellum has taken an engaging cooking program for adults and given it several layers that work for delivering real information for teens in the 13-16-year-old audience. Family Style with Chef Jeff leaves target audience viewers with critical information about health and health literacy and models for food preparers, food preparation, and the food itself. It is an episode that proves a cooking program can be a genuine asset for education and information.

"The Coolest Places on Earth" is an exploration of cities (both modern and ancient), natural wonders, and cultural history, heavy with engaging content, fast-paced editing, and the accessible, conversational narration we have come to expect from Bellum Entertainment. The series' tone, information, and rich factual content reaches and serves the target 13-16-year-olds with a style that informs, supports, and encourages the kind of engaged thinking that have emerged from the Common Core State Standards. These standards, now adopted by 45 states and the District of Columbia recognize the importance of engaging, relevant information about the world young people live in. This series' episode also touches key points in the National Geography standards.
