Announcement: We can talk about making a difference or we can make a difference. Or we can do both.

Design Matters Second Season Begins June 3rd at 3pm ET

Design Matters is a one-hour live internet radio show broadcast on the Voice America Business network every Friday afternoon from 3-4 pm ET. You can also listen to the show any time you'd like via the network's free on-demand egocasting. The show is a (hopefully) provocative intersection of branding, design and culture--live callers chime in and overall, it is a fast, funny and fascinating hour of radio.

Second Season Line-up:

June 3 Season Premiere:
The Groovy World of AdamsMorioka
Two of the most innovative, exciting and provocative designers in the US, Sean Adams and Noreen Morioka, will be joining Debbie for a lively and inspiring hour with discussions on some of their more profile projects for clients such as MTV, VH1, Sundance and Nickelodeon.

Howdy Debbie.

Will there ever be an archive of your show? With the new PodCasting feature on iTunes, this would be a great opportunity for those of us who can't catch the show every Friday to take it with us and listen to it when we do have the time to do so.
