Self Help Radio 010915: A Long Time

That's Steve Ditko's "Eternity" that I've marred with my logo!

I keep using the same old joke: Self Help Radio's show with the theme "a long time" is actually only two hours in length; however, it may feel like an eternity while you're listening to it.  Ho ho ho!  Can I call it a joke if I'm the only one who finds it funny?  Wait.  What if I don't really find it funny?

There might be something you'll like in this week's Self Help Radio.  There's lots of great music (the playlist is below) & also I talk to self-help guru Suthabee Queenbii Belladonna, who gives us tips to living a long time, & the famed host of the long-running program Perspectives, Dr. David Fruchter, gives us a sense of what a long time really is.  Plus, I revive my old segment, Dramatic Readings Of Classic Rock Songs.  It made me cry.

The show is where the show always is, you know: where the Self Help Radio website has been for a long time.  Pay attention to password/login information; but it shouldn't take you a long time to figure that out.

Thanks for listening!
