Here it comes to save the day! Yay! Heroes! Because a radio program about cowards would seem too much like a radio show about the police or about politicians, Self Help Radio chose instead to spotlight those we choose to call heroes. & so we did.
Is there something heroic about listening to the radio in this day & age? Self Help Radio can't answer that - even though technically it was a questions the show just asked - but here's as noncommittal a statement as you're ever going to here: there are acts of ordinary heroism everywhere!
Sheesh. It might be better to just listen to the dumb show instead of trying to frame it in heroic terms, even if that's the theme. & you can do that while still in your secret identity! Please don't listen to the show while on patrol. It'll be distracting.
The Self Help Radio "hero" show is now at Self Help Radio's anti-heroic web page. Please remember, you'll need a username & a password to listen. Those are SHR & selfhelp. You can see below what was played.
& now, citizen - up, over, & away!
