Our ReachI love the work you do. To me radio is everything... When I was born back in 1955 I was legally blind. Radio to me was my entire "field of vision” ... I will promote your website on a few forums I chit-chat at and I hope this helps get the message out that the "audio arts" are alive and well and living in our hEARtS... Bob Allen, TX
I am a single father janitor at a hospital here in Eugene, OR and my job is boring - boring - boring. What gets me through is listening to MP3 downloads from mostly NPR and BBC. Found your website and.... all I have to say is Thank You. You made my days a little better. JosephEugene,OR I just listened to the first episode of Open Season online and I am really impressed. In fact I'll say this is the first American radio drama production I've been impressed with in many a year ... Dufris' Maine accent is a treasure ... the sound effects and room ambiances were just right. PatEustis, FL
