Progressive Voices is the mobile and digital one stop for America’s top progressive media talkers, progressive news and information. Formed in 2011, Progressive Voices is headquartered in Atlanta, GA. Progressive Voices aggregates top progressive radio talk shows and delivers them via mobile device (smartphones and tablets) and online 24/7/365 via the Progressive Voices Channel on TuneIn and The Progressive Voices iOS and Android apps. Weekday shows include Bill Press, Stephanie Miller, Ed Schultz, Thom Hartmann, Leslie Marshall, and Mike Malloy. Weekends feature Ring of Fire with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Mike Papantonio, Sam Seder; Terrence McNally’s A World That Just Might Work; Brad Talk with Brad Friedman and Desi Doyen; Nurse Talk; and The Interfaith Council’s State of Belief. We do not carry the 17 minutes of local radio commercials hourly, and instead air aggregated and original programming, making the stream almost commercial free. The progressive end of the American political spectrum is growing rapidly! Our population is getting younger and more diverse. The audience for progressive programming is younger and more gender and ethnically diverse than that of traditional talk radio, and is greatly underserved by the media. This audience has a higher adoption rate of smartphones and tablets, falling into the “heavy user” category. Thus, Progressive Voices focus on mobile and digital delivery that reaches the target audience where they are – using mobile devices.
