The Garden
Show with Manuel Flores has been off the air for years.
The radio business
is not the very profitable enterprise it was during the 1980's and 1990's.
Radio station revenue is down as advertisers have many more options where
to spend their money to reach an ever more fragmented audience.
Consequently,
I could be back on the air in this market, but I would either have to do
the shows for free or else, buy the time and personally obtain sponsors
to defray those costs. Neither option appeals to me.
Anyway, our
weekends are usually spent with horses. My wife and daughter are Eventers
(the equestrian discipline that includes dressage, show jumping and cross
country jumping). My son and I are the official
photographers for several of the recognized shows in this area and
we do private shoots as well.
Thank you for
listening to my shows and calling with your gardening questions starting
in June of 1984!
