Twelve-Time Grammy Award Winner, Emmylou Harris, Spends the Weekend with Animal Radio(R)

Veteran Country and Bluegrass songstress, Emmylou Harris, to be featured on
Animal Radio(R) May 24 and May 25 to discuss a range of topics - including
her devotion to Animal-Rights and her Nashville-area animal
rescue/fostering organization, Bonaparte's Retreat

NASHVILLE, Tenn., May 23 -- Animal Radio(R) Announces
Award Winning Country Music Star, Future Country Music Hall of Fame
Inductee and Animal Rights Activist, Emmylou Harris and Comedian Richard
Pryor's wife, Jennifer Pryor, to make guest appearances on the AM/FM
(terrestrial) and XM Satellite Radio broadcast of Animal Radio(R) this
weekend.

"Animals, that is what I want to devote my life to now," Emmylou Harris
tells Animal Radio(R) listeners. "Animals can teach us how to be better
human beings. They've certainly taught me that." The angel-voiced singer
has been wowing audiences for decades and her true love lives in the legacy
of "Bonaparte" -- a dog that touched her deeply and inspired her to start
her Nashville-area animal rescue/fostering organization, "Bonaparte's
Retreat."

Also in this special program, Richard Pryor's wife, Jennifer Pryor,
shares information regarding "Pryor's Planet" -- an animal advocate
organization and Richard Pryor's legacy as "A Saving Grace for All
Animals". Additionally, Jennifer is a part of Animal Radio's tribute to the
late-comedian. Jennifer recalls, "Richard would get out of the car and talk
to cows -- he had an 'animal' magnetism."

This highly anticipated Animal Radio(R) broadcast will air on 97 AM-FM
Animal Radio(R) affiliates, including KOST 103.5 FM Los Angeles, and XM
Satellite Radio channel 158 Saturday May 24, 2008 at noon EDT, and again
Sunday May 25, 2008 at 9am EDT. Internet users can listen by logging onto
