Self Help Radio 041715: My Favorite Radio Show

(Original image here.

One day I'd love to do a radio show about my favorite radio shows.  Wow, that would be fun!  There have been so many - I could spend so much time on each of them.  Some of them I learned from.  Some of them I marveled at.  Some of them were so much fun to listen to.  Some of them I couldn't believe what I was hearing.  Most contained all parts of that.

However.  Today's show is using that title to give me an excuse to play songs in which the musicians talk about their favorite things.  (Even the band My Favorite gets a song because in the song they say "you're my favorite.")  You can see what songs I played below.  People are not shy talking about their favorite things!

The show is available now at the Self Help Radio website.  By now I don't need to remind you about the username/password (SHR/selfhelp) situation.  Oh wait.  I just did.  Uh.  All right!

Thanks for listening.  You are my favorite!
