Monthly Radio Show – about Green and Sustainable Concepts:

Industry Visions Internet Radio Broadcast (WVSN):

• www.industryvisions.com, Radio & TV for Industry & Commerce

Scheduled the 1st Wednesday of every month (alternate date is the 2nd Wednesday if there’s a scheduling conflict) - 8:00-10:00 a.m. Eastern Time (GMT-5 from 1st Sunday in November to 2nd Sunday in March; GMT-4 from 2nd Sunday in March to 1st Sunday in November). Repeated at 12:00 and 4:00 ET.

Go to “Links”, then to link to Crazy Al’s Radio Party, then click on “Play”. 

It’s a disc jockey show of rock and roll music from the 50s and 60s, with discussion between sets, so it’s not all talk. You might consider listening with a headset if the music or talk could bother your co-workers.

See TV interviews, etc. on Visions Media link.
