Self Help Radio 070522: Kindness

(Original image here.)

There it is. The kindest radio show Self Help Radio could produce. Because it was about kindness!

To be kind to listeners, it aired in the middle of the night when most everyone was asleep. Except! It was the night of the fourth of July, so maybe everyone was awake because their pets were freaked out by the fireworks! In any event, we kindly kept the show to a mere three hours long. Anything more would not have been a kindness.

As you can see below, there are guests & lots of songs. Except for a short set of tunes of unkindness, it's nonstop kindness.  The milk of human kindness flows, kindness kills, & the show relies on the kindness of strangers.  That's the kind of show it is: a kind show about kindness.

Kindly listen when convenient at either the KBOO web page or at the Self Help Radio website. If you used the latter, make sure you remember the username SHR & the password selfhelp. As note, everything that happens on the show is listed below.

Be kind to Self Help Radio!
