WMBI To Broadcast Live From Louisiana State  Penitentiary
Contemporary Christian WMBI (90.1)/CHICAGO  prepares to make history on 
FRIDAY, AUGUST 25 when the station broadcasts live  from the maximum-security 
LOUISIANA STATE PENITENTIARY (LSP) in ANGOLA, LA, from  5-9a (CT). 

ANGOLA is home to the nation?s first and only licensed prison  radio station 
KLSP, which became an official affiliate of the MOODY BROADCASTING  NETWORK 
(MBN) in 2003. Once known as ?America?s bloodiest prison,? ANGOLA is now  
operating as its own community, providing rehabilitation programs as varied as a  
drama club, wood shop and Bible college programs. 

The morning broadcast  will follow the typical daily format for WMBI, 
consisting of news, sports,  traffic and weather, but will feature stories from the 
team?s tour through the  prison the previous day and various live interviews 
including an interview with  WARDEN BURL CAIN. 

Guests will include CAIN, MANNY MILL, Executive  Director of KOINONIA HOUSE 
NATIONAL MINISTRIES, MIRIAM NEFF, wife of the late  BOB NEFF, former VP of 
Broadcasting for MBN, Associate Director of WAYSIDE CROSS  MINISTRIES JAMES 
LOKOSE, ILLINOIS State Representative RANDALL HULTGREN and RYAN  KOEHL, Prosecutor 
for LAKE COUNTY State?s Attorney?s Office.
