With Over 4,000 Hits Per Day, Surely We Can Raise Funds for the Radio Program

Douglas V. Gibbs, Author, Speaker, Instructor, Radio Host, has been on AM Radio since August of 2011.  The Political Pistachio blog has been around since 2006.  Over the last few years, the popularity of both has been steadily on the rise.  We are now averaging well over 4,000 Hits per day at Political Pistachio, and thanks to adding a second hour, over the last ten weeks, Constitution Radio with Douglas V. Gibbs has been also on the rise.

The show airs every Saturday at 1:00 pm on KMET 1490-AM.

The two advertisers that made the second hour possible, however, have hit some obstacles in their own lives. While they both believe they will be able to return as sponsors in the coming months, the current contract with KMET ended last Saturday, and the second hour for the next contract remains unpaid.

We don't have to lose that second hour. If we can raise the funding necessary to keep the second hour by the end of the week, we can keep it. Political Pistachio receives 3,500 to 4,500 hits per day. We have more than 1,600 friends on Facebook, and over 11,000 people follow the Constitution Study Facebook Page. My email list consists of almost 500 people. Surely, we have enough listeners and followers out there to help fund the second hour. . . and if it is listener sponsored, that will also make it commercial-free.

We have raised $500 so far.  Our goal by the end of this week is $1,300 to fund the second hour into July. Please contribute, if you can, on my donation page at http://www.douglasvgibbs.com/donate.php.
