Review of For Kindred Spirits

This amazingly original radio show is not just for people who like animals. I listened because I am a nature lover, and got way more than I ever dreamed! The program is deeply moving on so many levels ? mind, heart and spirit - and the show does this on many levels ? with music and stories and sounds. Not every story or thought expressed will resonate with every person, but any person listening will be transported ? from adults, to teens, to kids - from all walks of life, regions of the country, and regardless of their belief system. For Kindred Spirits is a transformative experience and sounds like the future of what radio should be. It teaches and opens our eyes to the real world without militancy. It?s the very opposite of passive, dull-the-feelings, or pandering to cheap sentiments, or reinforcing of clich?s that are found in most programming in all media. We all need more of For Kindred Spirits.
