Home & Family Finance airs Sundays at 3:00 p.m. Eastern on the Radio America Network, and is presented by the Defense Credit Union Council. WASHINGTON, March 5, 2014 marked the 355th broadcast of Home & Family Finance Radio, the weekly personal finance radio show sponsored by the Defense Credit Union Council dedicated to ‘Serve Those Who Serve Our Country’. The one-hour program airs each Sunday at
3 p.m. (ET) on the Radio America Network and was launched seven years ago in 29 markets. The Defense Credit Union Council (DCUC) sponsored show now airs in more than 64 markets nationwide and is carried to U.S. military bases overseas via the American Forces Radio Network. "This is the only regularly broadcast radio program truly dedicated to financial literacy and thus it was an easy decision for us to make at the Defense Credit Union Council to insure that this program is available to our military audience as well as to the general audience. Paul keeps the program focused on the kind of pocketbook financial issues families routinely discuss around their kitchen tables. It performs a real service and strengthens our brand identity as a trusted military consumer resource," said Arty Arteaga, President & CEO of The Defense Credit Union Council. Arteaga, is a frequent guest on the program to discuss the importance of financial literacy to the men and women of our military services. Recently Paul had the opportunity to interview former Prime Minister Tony Blair and former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright at the CUNA Governmental Affairs Conference in Washington, D.C. Both are keenly aware of the importance of financial literacy. The show is produced and hosted by Paul Berry, veteran broadcast journalist with more than 40 years of experience. Prominent guests who have appeared on the show during its seven-year run include Reps. Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.), Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.), Rep. Spencer Bachus (R-Ala.), and noted personal finance journalists Jean Chatzky of NBC Today, Elisabeth Leamy of ABC's Good Morning America, Janet Bodnar of Kiplinger's Personal Finance, Kathy Kristof of the Los Angeles Times, and Liz Pulliam Weston of MSNMoney.com.
