Self Help Radio 081021: Waterfalls

(Original image here.*)

This week's Self Help Radio was about waterfalls.  There are lots of waterfalls in this part of Oregon.  How many have I visited?  You mean counting today?  None.  Look, it got hot!  Yesterday I was going to go to one just twelve miles south of me, but there was this heat advisory & I felt like napping, & well, I didn't go.  But I will!

The show's one achievement - using "achievement" in the broadest possible sense - is that I played twenty songs just called "Waterfall."  I wish I could've filled the entire show with songs just called "Waterfall."  I bet there are three hours of songs called "Waterfall."  I might have listened to that many.  But!  I didn't like a lot of them.  & one of the cool things about programming your own show is that you don't have to play songs you don't like!

Also there were no guests on this show - though there were lots of interruptions!

Listen now at the Self Help Radio website (where you will need a username & password, which are SHR & selfhelp) & at the KBOO website (where you won't need such things).  All the songs I played & all the things that happened during airbreaks are detailed below.

Gosh! Waterfalls are pretty!
