Dear Dr. Peters:
I am writing you today to let you know of an exciting radio program,
Blind and Beyond Radio Show, in which you might be interested!
Blind and Beyond Radio Show is the only commercial radio show for the
blind and visually impaired in North America with more than 1.5 million
listeners
each week just in the United States.
There are more than 12 million blind and visually impaired people in
the United States alone, and we have listeners all over the world. The
format is
talk/variety show with interaction from the audience, and our listeners
love to call in and comment on our live guest call-in segments.
Michael Golder is the dynamic host, along with co-hosts,Lynne Golder,
Sheila Young, Gary Sinclair and David Hillebrandt. All the hosts are
blind with
the exception of Lynne Golder. The show serves as a bridge between
sighted individuals and the low vision and
blind community and is intended to educate all listeners on blindness
related subjects while also providing entertainment. The show airs,
live, every
Sunday evening from 7 to 9 p.m. Eastern on our flagship station, 1680
WOKB-AM/FM in Orlando. Blind and Beyond is also heard live on many
other radio stations,
