It's been a record-setting week for Free Talk Live in the area of existing affiliates expanding their carriage of our show. We had several stations expand this week to carry our weekday show including WGOW-FM in Chattanooga, TN, KHMO-AM in Hannibal, MO, KBKW-AM/FM/HD4 in Aberdeen, WA, and WTTB-AM/FM in Vero Beach, FL! The all-of-a-sudden changes came after our competitor, the awful Michael Savage, dropped his show from two hours live per day to one. As a result, we also got a brand new affiliate, KSRM-AM in Kenai, AK onboard for weeknights! To see full affiliate details, check out the list here .

Also, I got the time-lapse video done of Mark getting his hair dyed for charity !

It has turned out to be a great platform for live video and allowed us to bring Call to Freedom and Questioning Authority - the other two Keene-based shows on LRN.FM - into the channel. One year later the LRN.FM Twitch channel now has over 600 followers and approximately 60 subscribers! To show our appreciation and to help grow our presence on the platform, we launched our Twitch-only aftershows which have been a lot of fun and hopefully have brought us new viewers from the general Twitch audience, which will introduce some of them to the ideas of liberty.

In addition to Twitch, we also launched the LRN.FM Discord...
