On July 31, 2021, Ilyssa was able to reach an even wider audience through her role as Creator, Writer, Producer and Host of a nationally syndicated & live streaming radio show called, “The Divorce Hour with Ilyssa Panitz” that airs every Saturday and Sunday on CRN Digital Talk Radio and then on Spotify, Google Podcasts, iTunes, Google Home, Alexa, Amazon Music and Amazon Audible.
