The Raad Life Returns!

After a two year hiatus, we welcome back one of our most interesting (and longest running) shows, THE RAAD LIFE.. Hosted by raconteur and "man about town" Raad Ghantous.  A well known, high end interior designer who seems to know everyone of interest here in our community. From politicians and activists and those actively living "the good life".  As he brings his curiosity and connections to this weekly "community conversation".

Join us for the only show I know "without a pre-determined point of view" or an immediate agenda (other than getting to know some really smart and successful people). As we follow our community explorer on his endless quest to meet the most interesting people in Orange County. On Orange County's only community radio station, OC TALK RADIO.

CLOSING THE WEALTH GAP: The Anatomy of Wealth

Join our Wealth Coach, Tyrone French as he breaks down "the anatomy of wealth". And how we've got to stop thinking of wealth as "things" instead of a living, breathing part of us.  A living thing that can grow (or die) depending upon what we do and how we take care of it.

Fascinating, different approach to nurturing and growing wealth that puts it all in a different perspective. On Orange County's only community radio station, OC TALK RADIO. Streaming live from our studio here at UCI's Beall Applied Innovation Center.
