Former U.S. Rep. and presidential candidate Ron Paul (R-Texas) has signed a contract for radio commentaries and a podcast, Courtside Entertainment Group announced Feb. 13 in an emailed news release.
Paul will offer two one-minute commentaries per day and a weekly podcast, the company said.
Titled "Ron Paul's America," the programming is scheduled to debut on March 18.
Joining Paul on the commentaries is writer Charles Goyette.
"I am very excited to have this opportunity to take the message of freedom to more people than ever, especially now when our country needs it so much," Paul said in a prepared statement. "Radio and podcasting are a much more powerful means of communication than speaking on the floor of Congress. I welcome this chance to work with Norm and Courtside and interact with America in a new way, delivering a message that is timelier than ever and a philosophy that people are clearly hungry to hear more about."
"There's no questioning the fact that Ron Paul is one of today's most impactful leaders. His thoughts and opinions have created a significant and loyal following that has made its presence known throughout the country," said Norm Pattiz, founder of Westwood One and Courtside Entertainment Group and Chairman of Launchpad Digital Media. "That following includes college campuses, corporate offices and everything in between. His new radio show for Courtside and his digital presence via podcasting create a platform that will be hugely successful."
In addition to service in Congress and campaigns for president, Paul has written several books, including "The Case for Gold," "Liberty Defined," "End the Fed," "The Revolution: A Manifesto," "Pillars of Prosperity, Gold, Peace, and Prosperity," "A Foreign Policy of Freedom," and "A Republic, If You Can Keep It."
He is the father of U.S. Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), who is frequently mentioned as a potential 2016 candidate for the Republican presidential nomination.
