Thursday, November 11th Oram was interviewed live on Dr. Howard Liebowitz’s Talk Radio Podcast “Hormones Spoken Here”.
Oram was a guest on Dr. Liebowitz’s weekly web radio program. Dr. Liebowitz started out discussing hormones and health and has now branched out into other health-related subjects.
Oram presented information on the health effects of EMFs from such sources as wireless devices and house wiring.
To listen to an archived version of the show on your computer, log on here. This will bring you to the page for the four shows archived for November 2010. Find the box with the title, “blogtalkradio” and click on the link for “Dr. Liebowitz Show / Oram Miller.”
You may hear a radio commercial played over the introductory remarks between the host, Dr. Liebowitz, and his co-host, Kelly Pappas. If you do, when the commercial is over, the show will begin again on your computer. Oram begins his remarks about five minutes into the program–after the introductory music finally comes to an end! (Sorry that the volume of my voice drops lower from time to time, but it always comes back up and the information is really important.)

Minneapolis was one of sixteen satellite locations throughout the country to hold the event, beaming in four hours of plenary sessions per day from California with nationally known speakers. Our Minneapolis conference also had local speakers, workshops and entertainment. Oram is a member of the organizing committee for the local event.
