Robert Paul Hudson, who produces the Pet Radio Show from his home in Salem, reaches more than 60,000 people nationwide each month.
His show is broadcast live each Saturday morning and recorded as a podcast for iTunes and other podcast networks. It features a variety of pet-related topics and includes interviews with people involved with local animal organizations.
This weekend, Hudson plans to add a new Sunday show and hopes to raise at least $500,000 for animal rescues nationwide through advertising revenue, tailored fundraisers with local and national rescue groups and radio “telethons.”
“The majority of the advertising revenue will go straight to rescue organizations along with listener donations.,” Hudson says.
