Self Help Radio 081622: Wasting Time


We at Self Help Radio know that the world is designed to maximize the amount of time you can waste at any given moment.  With that in mind, with our show about "wasting time," we have chosen both music & interviews which on the surface may not seem as much a waste of time as you have come to expect from this show but which, when taken with the show in toto, represent a more profound waste of time than usual, perhaps too much of a waste of time, one that might cause one to reconsider one's entire life &/or seek out a new therapist.

We certainly hope, if a sincere attempt at time-wasting is what you are looking for, this one is as wasteful as your expectations of it.  If not, at least it was a waste of time, even if it wasn't the wastiest waste of time imaginable.  Reality television has everyone beaten in that competition.

Listen to this show - which I'm not kidding is quite a waste of time - at either the KBOO website or at the Self Help Radio website.  At the Self Help Radio website, you'll need a username (which is SHR) & a password (which is selfhelp) but you can download the show to waste your time when you don't have an internet connection.  What happens on the show is below.
