This week, Self Help Radio was stoned. That doesn't sound right. But it's not untrue. An entire show about stones! & nary a geologist - or should we say petrologist - in sight!
There were in fact way too many songs about stones - you might say they were as numerous as stones on a beach - or stones anywhere - there are lots of stones in the world - to fit into three hours, & almost certainly your favorite song about stones isn't on the show, but as a kind of soup stone, we flavored the show with interviews - with an expert in spiritual stones, a Hollywood stoner, & a therapist who uses a method called "sticks & stones" - so perhaps you wouldn't miss what we so obviously missed.
Listen to the show at either the KBOO website or at the Self Help Radio website. It's the same show in two different places! Someone should inform the authorities. The list of songs played is below, as are brief mentions of things that happened in-between.
Three hours of stones might well leave you stoned. What kind of stoned, well. That's up to you.
