(APRIL 2009) – After nearly two years of delivering daily “green” advice on radio stations throughout the United States and Canada, the popular daily radio feature called Think Green Radio with Harrison has inspired one local school in Ohio to take their first “green” steps towards making a difference. Harrison, program host of Think Green Radio, which is syndicated nationally through Envision Radio Networks, traveled to Beachwood, OH this past week to emcee The Green Dream, an eco-friendly conference devoted to educating Ohio residents about the steps they can take towards living a greener lifestyle. Harrison was on hand for the dedication of the “Ultimate Green Classroom” at Beachwood High School, a project which will provide the national model for eco-classrooms.

“What’s fun about our green radio bursts is that they’re universal and seem to speak to everybody—from AM Talkers to FM Country folks and NPR aficionados, comments Harrison. “And, we’re hearing they’re sparking all sorts of cool ideas that end up saving people a lot of money, too.”

Visit www.thinkgreenradio.com for more information, or contact Matt Wardlaw at 216-831-3761 for additional details.

Think Green Radio host Harrison’s broadcast career began on cable when he co-hosted and produced an entertainment show for multiple cable systems. The program, Screen Test, won several cable ACE honors and was the forerunner for what later became E! Entertainment Television. That of course, led quickly to Talk Radio, Morning FM, syndication, and satellite radio. As an award-winning syndicated investigative reporter, Harrison developed a reputation for uncovering news and issues that none of the other media personalities would touch. Most recently, Harrison has gathered further accolades as the host of popular talk program Harrison on the Edge (KTLK-AM/ Los Angeles.)

With The Hog broadcasting Full Metal Jackie, it now joins over 200 other affiliates on the Envision Rock Radio Network. In other metal news, Full Metal Jackie was on hand last week as the “black carpet correspondent” for the inaugural Revolver Golden Gods Awards Tuesday night in Los Angeles. Jackie had the honor of introducing Megadeth at the awards ceremony, and also interviewed many celebrities from the “black carpet” including Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne, Corey Taylor from Slipknot, and Lemmy from Motorhead, among others. The Revolver Golden Gods Awards will air on MTV2 on Saturday, May 2nd.

Full Metal Jackie Radio is two hours of fist pounding metal from the frontlines, hosted by renowned metal radio personality Full Metal Jackie, featuring regular interviews with many of metal’s biggest names, past and present.

Full Metal Jackie began her radio career as a DJ at WSOU Pirate Radio, Seton Hall University’s legendary metal station. Instantly addicted to the excitement of life behind the mic, she graduated Pirate Radio (and Seton Hall), to become an on-air personality at WHTG (Neptune, NJ), and later at WDHA (Dover, NJ).

Jackie set her sights on bigger markets (and warmer climates!), making her way west to California’s gold coast. After a short stint as on-air host at San Diego’s 94.9 KBZT, Jackie landed the opportunity she had been working toward since her early WSOU days: host and producer of her own (and L.A.’s only) commercial heavy metal radio show, CHAOS on Indie 103.1. Today, Full Metal Jackie’s show can be heard in syndicated markets throughout the United States

“I’m really excited that the show is at KTLK,” says Fatima, “The station is really getting behind “Parenting The Addict Child” with various upcoming promotions that will increase awareness and take the show to a much larger audience. I’ve really missed my listeners during this transition and I am anxious to get back to work and reconnect with them”

KTLK Sales Manager Greg Garber says, “Leyla is providing an invaluable service to our listening community and her growing audience. Her program defines the type of commitment to our youth that makes me proud to have her join the KTLK family.”
