Do you need a reason, ever, to do a radio show about food? I try to stay away from food, myself, on the radio, mainly because there are lots of songs about meat, & I don't want to play them. I remember reviewing a CD recently in which a person talked about going to heaven & eating barbecue up there. It completely baffled me that someone would imagine going to heaven - the place where the god they believe in lives - & they'd still slaughter animals to eat. It conjures up the image of the soul of a poor calf mistreated & murdered for veal, & its soul rising up to heaven, & once there - it gets murdered again! How awful!
There are a few meat soup songs on tomorrow's show, I confess. I suffered through them. But mostly, you know, the soup songs are silly or metaphorical. Like all that is important in life.
Is that true?
The show's on tomorrow morning from 7 to 9am on 88.1 fm WRFL in Lexington. It's also online at WRFL dot FM. & of course I'll keep the soup show warm & put it on the
Self Help Radio website.
But if there's no bread left when you get there, it's your own damn fault!
