Whither Halloween 2022 - Spiders?
There are two burning questions you doubtless have for me about this year's Self Help Radio Halloween show, which will be about spiders. At least two. Here are the two I will answer here:
1) Didn't you already do a Self Help Radio episode about spiders?
Yes, I did. It was way back in 2004, after I was bitten by a brown recluse. It was not for Halloween. It occurred to me that this year, because Portland loves its spiders (see above image, taken a couple years ago in my neighborhood), that spiders would be a great Halloween theme. Also, I doubt anyone who listened to that show, which aired in Austin, Texas, eighteen years ago, will be listening now & shaking their head at me for being repetitive & lazy.
2) Isn't Halloween next week? Isn't your show next Monday on Halloween night?
Halloween is in a week, yes, but my show next week is technically on Tuesday, November 1, the day after Halloween. I thought it would be more fun to start a week of Halloween celebrations rather be a footnote after such a week.
Maybe you have more questions? Ask away! & make sure to listen to Self Help Radio's show about spiders tonight on 90.7fm in Portland & online at kboo.fm. When? It'll happen starting at the witching hour - midnight - & last till 3am. All times Pacific.
Gosh, I hope you're not as scared of spiders as I am - or maybe I hope you are!
