Customer Reviews
Ward Stone Rocks!
This show is awesome! I learned so much about my local environment (Hudson Valley, NY) and now I respect whats around me a lot more! 1/2 hour show filled with many stories about the environment and listener questions answered. If you are an outdoors-person you must listen!
I love this show
I live in the Albany, NY area, and I find this show to be so interesting. Ward Stone is really smart, and a lot of fun to listen to. Susan is great too. They make a good team. If you want to know about environmental issues in the Capital region, this is a great show to listen to.
