Baue, Lewis, and Rheannon blend expertise in the sustainability field with a deep sense of curiosity to draw out the passions of their guests. And they have attracted an A-list of sustainability thought leaders, activists, and businesspeople:
Podcast subscriptions to Corporate Watchdog Radio span the globe, fueled for example by Professor Jeremy Williams of U21Global in Singapore assigning his MBA students to listen in. The program also airs on a number of independent and Pacifica radio stations nationwide (see list below).
