"Brainstorm" podcasts on KUNM

You are reading http://rriverstoneradio.blogspot.com/

The pieces I've produced: Kicked Out Queers, Native American Vets with PTSD, What's a Disability to Brenda's Girls and Brainstorm ALL involve populations of our community who have little or no discretionary income.

People are telling me they can't afford to buy the podcasts.

Disabled people have to lose everything, before they qualify for Medicaid and, therefore, necessary therapies, technologies, housing, rehabilitation, transportation and even FOOD. Just listen to "Brainstorm" for several examples of relatively-affluent people who were reduced to poverty, in order to receive medical attention.

IF my programs about financially-vulnerable populations are to be posted on KUNM's website, is there a way to waive the fees?
