A lean show! A leaning show! It's like two mediocre episodes of Self Help Radio in one! (Yes, yes, I know "mediocre Self Help Radio" is redundant.)
What happened? Why did this show happen? Let's not kid ourselves. Someone leaned on the show & said, "Let's make this a thing, this lean radio." Was it a butcher consortium? The publicists of the Leaning Tower of Pisa? Or just some strange rich & powerful weirdo who likes to make this sort of thing happened because he can, like Bloomberg running for President? Who knows? The only thing that's certain is someone wanted this show to happen, & it happened, & somewhere some sick, sick person is giggling with glee like he'd just watched a baby bird try to fly & fail. & this is the worst thing: it will happen again.
Well, not exactly like this. Maybe with a show about deficit spending. Hopefully that'll be a different radio program. Meanwhile, if you'd like to hear this one, & there's no reason why you would, it's now at the Self Help Radio website probably up to no good. For reasons that make more sense as time goes by, you'll need a username (SHR) & a password (selfhelp) to listen. What was played on the show is listed below.
Oh all right, let's lean into this nonsense!
