August 29, 2008 - Lexington, KY: The Horse Radio Network is pleased to announce the launch of it's first weekly Internet radio show. The Stable Scoop Radio Show takes an entertaining look at horse news and the people involved. Veteran online radio hosts Glenn the Geek and Helena B. hold nothing back with their opinions on the hot horse topics of the day. Appealing to a variety of equestrian disciplines and horse enthusiasts of all sorts, the Stable Scoop Radio Show is available for listening on their site at www.stablescoop.com or through iTunes.
Online radio shows, generally referred to as podcasts, are catching on around the world but especially in the United States. In The Podcast Advertising report, eMarketer estimates "that there was a 285% increase in size of the US podcast audience in 2007, a growth to 18.5 million." eMarketer predicts this growth trend to continue with the US podcast audience increasing to 65 million in 2012.
Glenn the Geek and Helena B. are familiar with hosting duties on the Internet as they hosted one of the first horse podcasts over two years ago. Both are experienced horse people who take a somewhat irreverent look at the horse industry and are not shy about sharing their opinions. Glenn is a trained improvisational actor and a horse husband with over 20 years of experience at both. Helena is an experienced horsewoman, mom of a horse-loving six year old and avid fox hunter. "Helena provides a great counterbalance to some of Glenn's wackiness," comments Jennifer, a groupie of the hosting pair.
With an emphasis on the everyday rider, show segments include Horse News, Blog of the Week, Stable Spotlight, the 2010 Games Report, and interviews with top riders as well as rider's in the "barn next door."
Listeners can catch new shows each Friday at www.stablescoop.com or by subscribing through iTunes. The show is available to download to MP3 players or iPods, so folks can listen while they are doing their favorite barn chores or on the road to the next horse show!
