Hurricane Self Help Radio!


I survived Hurricane Self Help Radio!  Now I disappear for a week to repair all the damage.

The devastating footage of the storm is at Self Help Radio web central.  The soundtrack for the show is below.  You can listen to part one & then part two.  Or backwards.  It may not look so horrible that way.

I'll be gone next week but back after that for the tenth anniversary show!

Thanks for listening!

Whither Hurricanes?

I can't remember the last time I took a week off from Self Help Radio.  I don't really like to not do my show.  But I will be out of town next week, & for some reason I am a little glad.  Is that a bad thing?

You see, Self Help Radio is not a job.  I think I would be offended if someone were to pay me money for it.  (Also, I might want to make it better.)  (I couldn't take that sort of pressure.)  (But mainly I'd be offended.)  Since it's something I love to do, I don't like to miss it.

I should save this for next week's blog writings.  Tonight I should be talking about hurricanes.  Or tomorrow.  Tomorrow!

Tomorrow!  From 7 to 9am, on 88.1 fm, WRFL in Lexington.  Self Help Radio is category 3.  You can listen online at wrfl dot fm.  I'll put it up later at self help radio dot net.

Then there'll be no Self Help Radio for two weeks!  Lucky you!
