Self Help Radio 060121: An Important Show

(Original image here.*)

This isn't really an important show. I mean, it might be important to me, & sure my guests are glad they were on it, but important? In the grand scheme of things? Nah. It's just another way for me to organize a group of songs in a pleasant way. I hope you like it.

Lots of things happen - look at the list of songs below & see the stuff in-between.  I had some guests!  Yay!

You can listen now in two places: at the KBOO website & at the Self Help Radio website.  Either is good.  The KBOO website is more important, but I'm good with that.  I just hope you listen.

If only what I were doing were actually important!
