The show features a round of guests including industry insiders, Shutterbug editors and writers, manufacturer's representatives, and accomplished photographers who take part in an unrehearsed give and take with the hosts.

Russ Ellis, Publisher of the Photography Group at Primedia, which includes Shutterbug, Petersen's PHOTOgraphic, and eDigitalPhoto magazines, said, "The purpose of the Shutterbug Radio Show is to promote photography and imaging to people of all ages at all levels all around the world. We are thrilled to be working with Jack and Howard, who both entertain and educate each week. This is just another example of our commitment to the photo and imaging industry and our desire to encourage people to get excited about their involvement with photography."
