The podcast is a free service available to anyone with an Internet connection.

Governor Fletcher becomes one of the first governors in the nation to utilize the growing technology that expands the use of Internet-based multi-media to reach constituents. Fletcher's podcast joins Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee's podcast and California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger podcast.
