AOL Redefines ''Morning Zoo'' with Real Zoo Radio Broadcasts.

NEW YORK -- Radio KOL - The First Online Kids' Daily Radio Show Featuring DJ Rick Adams - Streams Live From The Central Park Zoo 

"Morning Zoo" may be a popular term with various radio personalities, but DJ Rick Adams takes it to the next level by bringing his popular online radio show for kids, Radio KOL, to the Wildlife Conservation Society's Central Park Zoo in New York City for nine weeks of special live broadcasts at http://www.radiokol.com/. Site visitors will not only hear the daily broadcasts, but they will be able to see all the fun as Rick encounters his fellow zoo residents through a webcam that's so good it's like watching TV.

"I'm very excited and honored to be relocated by the Wildlife Conservation Society to the Central Park Zoo - after all, they know how to take care of animals so I should feel right at home! It'll be fun sharing all the sights, sounds and smells of the zoo with kids everywhere," said Rick Adams. "They've even built me a special studio right next to the Vietnamese potbelly pigs, which is total justice for my mom as she always said my bedroom looked like a pig sty! And last week I got spat in the face by an alpaca. Ah bliss! It's just like being at home!"

The Central Park Zoo is equally excited about the partnership. "It is a wonderful opportunity to bring more children to the Zoo and the Zoo to more children across the country," said Central Park Zoo's Director, Dan Wharton. "We are happy to have DJ Rick Adams and hope that he is as happy and at home here as his animal neighbors."

Radio KOL offers a unique interactive radio experience that empowers kids to be the stars of the show. The show receives thousands of emails and instant messages each week from kids who reach out to Rick Adams with their stories, requests, jokes and more. The show's immense popularity has also made it a sought-after stop on publicity tours. A number of A-list celebrities have appeared on Radio KOL including Hilary Duff, Madonna, Lindsay Lohan, Kelly Clarkson, the High School Musical cast, Emma Thompson and many more. Radio KOL airs daily from 3pm to 7pm EST at http://www.radiokol.com/. The show also repeats continuously so listeners can tune in when they choose.

Additionally, DJ Rick Adams - former host of TV programs on Nickelodeon, Bravo and Children's BBC - will soon host the new dance competition TV series, "Dance Revolution!," based on the hugely popular Konami video game, Dance Dance Revolution(R). "Dance Revolution!" premieres September 16 on CBS as part of the new E/I compliant children's programming block, "KOL Saturday Morning Secret Slumber Party," co-produced by KOL and DIC Entertainment.
