Prism Radio was started in June of 2010 and although I have gone off air few times for extended period of time it was mostly based on time availability or funding availability. So, I plan on starting the show back up sometime in January but there is a lot of planning to do so until I know I am ready I won't release the date.
I hope to air a show every other Sunday Night at 9:00pm Eastern Time. I will add the show schedule on this page and on my website: www.hollyknightproductions.com as they are created.
Most shows will be interviewing guests from all sorts of topics but, on occasion, I might just do a commentary. Details for each show will be available on this page and my website. I hope to have shows that inform and entertain.
Feel free to call in live with comments or questions during our live shows. Please be patient as it might take a little while to have you on air. You can listen to the show as you wait.
Also, if you want to be a guest (or suggest a guest) on the show, email Holly at hollyknightproductions@gmail.com

PD 92 "I am not the Average Black Girl"
This show is inspired by a woman by the name of "Ernestine Johnson". If you don't know her this is a blurb on her website: http://ernestinejohnson.com/
Ernestine is also known in the spoken word community, infamous for being uncensored and untamed on the microphone, speaking on matters dear to the heart. Ernestine was the Red Carpet host for McKinley Presents Ent. in Las Vegas, conducting interviews with various celebrities which led to her hosting a sports segment on KCEP Power 88.1. Continuing her journey, Ernestine resides in Atlanta, Georgia. She can be seen on GMC’s original stage play Sugar Momma’s and her latest film Reckless.
I saw a recent post on the Arsenio Show of which Ernestine poetically expresses her view on steriotypess.

PD 91-"Peeling Back the Layers of Leelah's Suicide"
(WARNING: This show will have some explicit language and topic but I have kept the setting at Public as I believe younger trans individuals could benefit from the show)
Leelah's suicide has reached so many people but clearly in so many ways. The phrase of "layers of an onion" comes to mind when thinking about producing this show. When peeling layers of an onion we often experience the tears before we experience the benefit of the task. At the top of my list my hope is that Leelah's suicide can initiate some improvements in the lives of transgender people.
I will talk about my perception of these layers and the ramifications to and or for the transgender community.
As with all shows I will be taking live phone calls, live Facebook Chats or Emails.
The Facebook Chat will be at: https://www.facebook.com/events/329791630555886/

PD 90 "My Trans Hero's"
It is the end of the year and time for reflection. It has truly been an amazing year for the transgender community in 2014. Recently an article was written about 2014 being the best year ever for the transgender community. I would agree that it has been an amazing year for us in that there is so much in the news about transgender people and much of that has been positive but I wonder if we put too much emphasis on what is going on in the media.
This show will discuss my Trans Hero's and why.
Tell us with who your Trans Hero is? You can Email, Facebook or call live.
I hope you can join us.
