LPBC Radio Show
Our LPBC Radio Show airs each Saturday from 5 PM to 6 PM on partner station, News Radio 600 WREC. The show is focused on positives and features interviews with a mix of business and community leaders who discuss important trends, projects, and efforts, along with ways to get engaged and make an impact in the Mid-South. Jeremy Park, president of the LPBC, has been hosting the show since it kicked off in January 2011. Some of our past shows are archived below. If you have a positive story or are a part of an organization doing good in our community and would like to be a guest on the show, please let us know. We typically book about one month ahead and pre-record the show each Tuesday, prior to its airing on Saturday.
