Detroit LIVE magazine



DETROIT LIFE RADIO is a project initiated by Holice P. Wood of Detroit Life, a production and grass-roots marketing company that shares space with the Trans-Love Energies Compassion Club at 1486 Gratiot in the Eastern Market district of the D. Detroit Life produces a line of branded shirts and other wearables, produces and promotes concerts like the annual 4:20 Music & Art Fair and the Service Street Fair in the fall, and generally promotes the idea of creative and productive life in the Motor City.

One night as Holice and I were medicating and talking over various ideas as we often do and he shared his concept of a Detroit Life Radio station on the internet as part of the DETROIT LIFE website (DetroitLife313.com). As I happen to be a pioneer of internet radio with the John Sinclair Radio Show since November 2004 and Radio Free Amsterdam, founded January 1, 2005, Holice was talking to the right guy, and I made a commitment to help him establish Detroit Life Radio by contributing a 60-minute radio program from Radio Free Amsterdam each day for the foreseeable future.

That was in the fall of 2010, and I posted episode 500 earlier this month, right around the time we approached TapDetroit.com with the idea of broadcasting our daily programs on their burgeoning internet radio station based in the Russell Industrial Center in Detroit. Now DETROIT LIFE RADIO is beaming out via TapDetroit.com every night at midnight Eastern Daylight Time.

DETROIT LIFE RADIO is produced by John Sinclair for the John Sinclair Foundation and Radio Free Amsterdam. Executive Producer: Holice P. Wood for Detroit Life.
