Yes, that's my wife. She is a member of the Jazzercise cult. The picture above is a couple of years old, taken on her birthday then. Enjoy it, she may make me take it down later.
So, yeah, this week's show was my annual birthday show for her. She gets a very long birthday week. & also, since she was raised Catholic, she gets a Name Day as well. I'm not doing a separate show for her for that, because I find that a little indulgent. Also, there's no name day for Gary.
Where was I? Oh yeah, I played a lot of birthday tunes for her. None of which I've ever played on the show before. Except I might have played another version of "The Unbirthday Song." But not Rosemary Clooney's version! In general only I am interested in the limitations I set for myself for my show.
The playlist for the show is below, including the silly interviews I did. The show is of course now at Self Help Radio birthday central. Pay attention to username/password info or no birthday cake! Each part is a half hour long. You might not think there were so many birthday songs & you would be wrong.
Also: happy birthday to you!
