Coming Up On Armed American Radio November 20th 2009
The Official Voice of the USCCA
by Mark Walters

United States Concealed Carry Association

USCCA - -(AmmoLand.com)- I tell ya, the last few days have been absolutely unbelievable for Armed American Radio. In the last 4 days, we have added new cities, Troy Alabama, Aberdeen Washington, Little Rock Arkansas, a commitment from Huntsville Alabama as soon as the station goes live on the air, and two other cities that I simply can not mention just yet but it’s ALL good! We also have interest in Detroit and the Twin Cities, Minneapolis and St Paul Minnesota. And guess what? AAR goes to 3 full hours this Sunday, November 22nd! You asked for it and you got it!

In addition to the continued growth of the broadcast, I had the privilege of being joined today in the AAR studio in Atlanta for a live, one on one interview with one of the giants of conservative talk radio, FOX news contributor and fellow Salem Radio Network nationally syndicated host, Mike Gallagher. Mike is in Atlanta through Saturday fighting “Obamacare” being shoved down our throats by the Socialist in Chief and was kind enough to join me for a segment that will air on the 29th. It was great to talk with him and you will definitely want to hear what he has to say about Armed American Radio!

You will also notice a great change to the Armed American Radio website. We have added some great new HD video content to the home page. The videos will give you information on past shows, upcoming guests and some plain old great information as it develops in real time. This new media rich content is just the beginning and I can promise you it will only get better and better with time. Make sure to head over to www.armedamericanradio.org to check out the new content and to stay 100% up to the minute with one of the hottest and fastest growing radio shows in America!

Coming up this week, The Master himself, Massad Ayoob makes another guest appearance to discuss anything I can toss his way for the full hour that I have his attention. In addition, David Burnette, The Midwest Regional Director of Students for Concealed Carry on Campus will be with me for the entire second hour to discuss this very hot button topic as well as a couple of other things he has up his sleeve. Great stuff.

Also, The Mad Ogre, George Hill will be with me for the entire show to chime in on the discussion as only he can and since I had the opportunity to meet with George a couple of weeks ago in Utah, George and I will be talking about one of the places we visited during my trip. During the third hour, George and I will be discussing the previous two hours and giving our thoughts, taking calls and reading listener comments live.

This is an amazing time for Armed American Radio and I can assure you all that you will want to be a part of this broadcast that will soon be bigger than Obama’s ego. Jump in while the water is warm and check out www.armedamericanradio.org to find out where to listen. Also, to those of you who have picked up a copy of my book, co-written with Ms. Kathy Jackson and Foreword by Massad Ayoob, “Lessons from Armed America”, THANK YOU! The reader reviews have been nothing short of incredible. You can get a copy at any major book retailer online, Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble, Borders, etc or you can pick one up at www.whitefeatherpress.com
