I was a guest on Max Tucci's radio show "Max & Friends" on LA talk radio Sunday March 27th. Here's the MP3 archive of the show
Max will be hosting and I will be performing to benefit Equine Advocates Horse Sponsorship Drive 2011 on Saturday, April 2nd from 4 pm – 7 pm in the gallery at TK Home and Garden (441 Warren St.) in Hudson, New York. The ultimate goal is to acquire sponsors for all 80 horses, ponies, donkeys and mules who reside at Equine Advocates Rescue & Sanctuary in Chatham, NY.
“Horse Sponsorship is our most successful program,” says Equine Advocates President, Susan Wagner. “Sponsors visit the sanctuary whenever they like and play an important role in the life and upkeep of their rescued equine. There are several levels of sponsorship starting for as little as $50 a month. It’s a great program for people who love horses.”

He stars in cooking and fashion shows, is the creator of the popular new Oscar’s Delmonico Vodka and is in the process of opening a new restaurant. As a result of his achievements, he was recently added to the 2011 biographical listing, Marquis Who’s Who in America & Around the World Max’s motto: “Remember to take life…2theMAX!”
I became involved with Equine Advocates in 2010 when I learned about the rescue of Bobby II Freedom, a former NYC carriage horse. I visited Equine Advocates to meet Bobby who arrived to live out his life away from a punishing life on NYC’s streets and pending slaughter. It made me so happy that a dream home is not only possible for Bobby, but exists at Equine Advocates. Seeing other rescued horses, ponies and donkeys and hearing their stories showed me the importance of Equine Advocates and the amazing level of love and care they receive. I applaud and support their tireless work to save, protect and care for discarded and disrespected equines.

Cocktails and hors d’eourves will be served. People interested in equine sponsorship or learning more about this program are invited to attend. Admission is free, but there is limited room - Guests need to R.S.V.P. by March 30th. For more information or to make a reservation, please call (518) 245-1599.
I hope you can attend and if not will consider sponsoring an Equine.
