Online Media/Heartbeat Radio
Since 2007, Saucedo's Internet presence has grown rapidly. In June 2007, live footage of Rick had made its way online for the first time as videos of his performances were uploaded to YouTube. The videos have allowed people from all over the world to see Saucedo online. For some, this was for the first time. Since then, dozens of his performances have been uploaded onto YouTube through the courtesy of his crew, fans and other YouTube users. Saucedo's internet presence grew again when his official MySpace launched on January 10, 2008. The MySpace focused on fan interaction, updates on Saucedo, interactive music and movies, and news related to him. In October 2008, Saucedo's official profile launched on TributesRadio, a website for online tribute artists and their fans. In May 2009, his online fan base shifted from MySpace when he joined Facebook. Saucedo's new profile page allowed for more intimate and interactive communication between him and his fans that was never before available. In March 2009, Saucedo launched his first radio program, entitled Heartbeat Radio. It aired every other Sunday at BlogTalkRadio, an online radio website. The show focused on Saucedo's original songwriting and featured programming that highlighted his writing style, influences, songbook, and the stories associated with them. The show's initial run culminated in January 2010.

Famous quotes containing the words media, heartbeat and/or radio:
“Few white citizens are acquainted with blacks other than those projected by the media and the so—called educational system, which is nothing more than a system of rewards and punishments based upon one’s ability to pledge loyalty oaths to Anglo culture. The media and the “educational system” are the prime sources of racism in the United States.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
“The Republican Vice Presidential Candidate ... asks you to place him a heartbeat from the Presidency.”
—Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)
“Having a thirteen-year-old in the family is like having a general-admission ticket to the movies, radio and TV. You get to understand that the glittering new arts of our civilization are directed to the teen-agers, and by their suffrage they stand or fall.”
—Max Lerner (b. 1902)
