In 1995 Virato hosted his own radio program, New Frontier On The Air, Saturdays on WSKY in Asheville, NC...the last local consciousness program heard throughout the Asheville mountains. Soon after, WSKY was purchased by a fundamentalist coalition that immediately terminated Virato's popular program ending Virato's airborne rhetoric until January 2005.
On January 17, 2009 his radio program, VIRATO LIVE! enters its 5th year of broadcasting with a world-wide live streaming and podcast audience, estimated 1/2 million+ loyal listeners.. Virato, with his captivating voice (he is the narrator of the award-winning film Anywhere, USA, and featured in the film Talking Tall ) and his unique insight, was also a dynamic radio talk show host in New York City and Philadelphia, dating back to the late 60s. In addition to New Frontier Magazine, in 1996 he co-published the monthly holistically oriented newspaper, Asheville Resource, and and served on the founding Board of Directors of Asheville's Chamber of Consciousness. In 2002-2003 he was also a columnist for Chattanooga's weekly newspaper, Chattanooga Outlook. Virato is currently editor and publisher of Asheville Magazine, an online journal exploring human consciousness. Stories on Virato have appeared world-wide, and he has been a guest on over 500 radio stations in America and Europe, including Russia, where he has been delivering mind-expanding lectures and consciousness workshops for nearly two decades.
