Guest Host:

Luciana and Pedro Bartes have been in the Puget Sound airwaves for more than 20 years. They started at the turn of the century doing a show from 2 to 6 am on 89.9 FM KGRG, Green River College student-run radio station, but it didn’t take them long to start working in commercial radio. They hosted shows on Salem Media Seattle’s Spanish station, Radio Sol for a couple of years. They then moved on to produce radio shows in English, like Radio-Hall-of-Famer Bob Rivers’ show for 8 years, and the Marty and Jodi show for 6. Pedro then moved back to Salem Media Seattle as Program Director for KGNW and KKOL while producing Live from Seattle. Luciana took a break from radio and went on to become a Spanish medical interpreter, but her love for radio brought her back to Salem Media Seattle. 2023 finds them hosting another show together, The Sound of the Puget Sound.

Summary:

Rebecca shares how ORR works with 31 staff members and grassroots partnerships to create meaningful change. One of their success stories is Albert, a boy once labeled deaf and dumb by his community and discarded. ORR took him in through their Foster Care program, discovering he simply had a tongue tie, which was treated. Now a teenager, Albert excels academically and thrives, a powerful example of ORR's impact.
