This month KPCCs Larry Mantle celebrated Airtalk's thirty years on the air—the longest running daily talk show broadcast in Southern California. Larry and Airtalk have been Community Advocates' partners since 2006, nearly ten years.
In selecting the five panelists to look back over Airtalk's thirty years, Larry handpicked individuals who demonstrate an “intellectual and analytical approach to what's going on in the world…a tremendous love of Southern California and a tremendous intellectual and emotional investment in improving the lives of Ssouthern Californians.”
Joe Hicks, Community Advocates' vice-president, joined Patt Morrison of the Los Angeles Times and KPCC, former Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky, Loyola Marymount professor Fernando Guerra, and economist Chris Thornberg. It is a compliment to Joe and Community Advocates to be included in that select company for that special occasion.
