Self Help Radio 030921: Victory!

(Original image here.*)

At long last, a victory for Self Help Radio!  Oh, it may be a temporary victory - or more likely a Pyrrhic victory - but after the year we've had, this show will take what it can get.

Yes, this week Self Help Radio - almost certainly the losingest show in the history of radio - celebrated victory after victory.  It may have seemed hard-fought, but really it was just a bunch of songs.  & also a couple of interviews.  & also way too much silliness.

Listen if you need a little victory in your life at the show's website.  Remember that you'll need a username & a password to listen.  All the stuff that happened on the show is below.

Congrats on your victory!
