Tonight's Self Help Radio on KBOO has the theme "the middle." What might that mean? Middle of the road (as pictured above)? Middle school? Middle age - or the Middle Ages? Middle children? (Yeah, definitely that one.) Middle names? The Middle East? (Probably not a lot of that.) The middle of the night? Caught in the middle? Stuck in the middle? In the middle?
All this & perhaps more, although one doesn't want to overpromise. The middle is the average, the middle is not the extreme, so we'll play it safe & say it will be a middling show. Fair to middling. In fact, the show is on in the middle of the night! & that's where the idea for the show came from. Someone asked me if it was hard to do a show in the middle of the night & then suggested "middle of the night" would be a good theme. & I said, "Maybe just middle?" & the seed planted then bears fruit tonight.
In you're in Portland, it's on 90.7 fm - not really the middle of the dial, sorry - & online at kboo.fm - which might just be in the middle of the world wide web. It's on midnight to 3am - hey! I said the middle of the night didn't I?
Random thoughts & other unrelated information from the dude who does "Self Help Radio" - a radio show which originated in Austin, Texas & now makes noise in Portland, Oregon. Listen to new & old shows & look at playlists at selfhelpradio.net.
