Self Help Radio 031423: Adoration

(original image here*)

Please be aware that I know that the word "adoration" is used mainly in a religious context. I talk about that on the show! It's just easier to say one word than the several that the show explores, all variations of the word "adore," from adoration to adorable. You can see that in the playlist below.

Also be aware I was very, very tired doing the show. I had awoken in Dallas, Texas, at some too-early hour because I am anxious about travel. I spent nearly four hours on a plane in the middle of the day gettin back to Portland, Oregon. I took some time to gather lots of songs & think about what order I should play them in but really by eleven o'clock I was running on fumes. One listener said he bet that I would have fallen asleep on the air by the third hour.

But I did not. There was a show. I played lots of tunes. I talked a bit too much. Just thinking about it now is making me very sleepy. So let me just say you can listen to the show now both at the KBOO website or at the Self Help Radio website, where you'll need to use the username SHR & the password selfhelp to listen. But at least you can download the file! All the songs I played are below.

Have I caught up on my sleep? Ha ha ha ha ha ha no.
