Eighteen years is a long time. I should know! I waited eighteen years before I got a kiss. & Self Help Radio has waited eighteen years for someone to actually like it! I suppose if I could wait that long for a kiss, the show can wait a little longer to find a listener.
Still, it was a pleasant anniversary show. Almost everyone stopped by to wish happy thoughts! There was even a surprise phone call. What there wasn't was cold hard cash. We could've used the cash. This whiskey does not buy itself. I suppose I should also say something about lions. We had plenty of songs about lions. No lion actually came on the show, however. They were all "busy." "Self-quarantining," they explained. Dudes, the virus doesn't affect lions! Just say you didn't want to come on the show! My feelings are always hurt, you don't have to spare them!
Listen to the anniversary festivities at the Self Help Radio website. Please remember SHR & selfhelp - those are the username & password respectively. There were exactly two hours' worth of lions, & they went like it says below.
Eighteen years! The show better register to vote!
