The show is co-produced by Bob Parsons and long time radio presence David Lawrence of ‘The David Lawrence Show.’ According to Lawrence, “The delivery of this show is an affirmation of the whole ‘Pod Casting’ community. It’s groundbreaking in that there hasn’t been a ‘live broadcast to PodCast’ show, backed by an Internet company of Go Daddy’s caliber, and featuring a prominent industry personality as Bob Parsons.”

“People have questioned why we would want to move into radio,” addedParsons. “But when you think about it, moving into radio is a naturalprogression from the blog (www.bobparsons.com) I started late lastyear. The whole idea behind the blog was to create a forum to discussimportant issues impacting technology and the Internet, open upadditional lines of communication between Go Daddy and its customers,and to have some fun. I see Radio Go Daddy as being yet anothercommunication medium for accomplishing these goals.”
