One thing you should know about Self Help Radio's show about greed is that I never sampled that speech Michael Douglas' character gives in Wall Street. I meant to, I just never got around to it.
What I spent my time doing is editing several episodes of "Mr. Greedy," performed by members of a local improv group called The Grandpas. I don't know if that's a one-off name or that they'll continue to perform under that moniker, but they improvised different moments in Mr. Greedy's life. These are sprinkled throughout the show. I quite enjoyed their work.
Hardly anyone listens to or knows anything about Self Help Radio but it's nice that no-one involved - it's not just me! - is at all that greedy. I appreciate that. It makes a show about greed, a nasty emotion if there ever was one, much more fun & palatable than it ought to be.
Anyway, if you're one of those folks who may listen - & it's a tiny number - you can do so at both the KBOO website & at the Self Help Radio website. For the Self Help Radio website, you'll need a username (SHR) & a password (selfhelp). You can download the show!
