Steam! It's a digital distribution platform developed by the Valve Corporation for purchasing & playing video games! That's so uninteresting! But wait!
Steam is also the vapor that water's converted into when heated! That's the stuff! You can make a radio show out of that kind of steam!
We have firsthand knowledge of steam. It's what makes our kettles whistle when our water's hot enough. It used to power trains & boats but for all I know it still makes a calliope go. Some of us enjoy soaking in hot tubs & basking in the steam, & a thankfully smaller amount of us enjoy so called steam rooms in saunas & spas for reasons that are probably inexplicable at least to me.
It's hard to get steamed at a celebration of steam, is what I'm trying to say. & luckily for me, that's what this week's Self Help Radio is about. See details below.

Steam! It may be science, technology, engineering, art, & mathematics to you, but it's a fine radio show to me!
