An entire radio show made in defiance of electric light! That's how it is. The candle show flickered briefly & then was extinguished, but I have saved an impression in mp3 form.
The show was fun. I spoke with a fellow who claimed to own the world's oldest candle, Tania called in & played a song, & a jet-lagged Dr. Howard Gently talked about the spiritual significance of candles - in addition to all the great music played!
You can listen now at the Self Help Radio website. Please remember that the mp3s are now password protected, so if you want to listen, you'll need a username/password combo, which is on the site, or you can just remember SHR/selfhelp. The songs I played are below.
Enjoy the scents & the beautiful flame!
