The series first aired on Austin's PBS station, KLRU,[1] and was titled "The Austin Daytripper." However, the concept expanded and the show condensed its name to "The Daytripper" to have a wider appeal.

The Daytripper has aired 11 seasons. Episodes are broadcast on PBS affiliate stations in Texas and many other states around the country. They are also available for viewing online.[2]
