Self Help Radio 021423: Valentine's Day 2023 - True Love


That picture up there - I've colored it, of course, & added the show's logo - I took it sometime in the spring of 2022, & it looked to me like someone splattered paint around a telephone pole so it would look like the pole was piercing the heart. Maybe no one sees it but me. Still, I thought it a nice symbol of true love.

Because that is this Valentine's Day show's theme! All songs about true love, plus lots of conversations with friends about true love, & visits from our favorite librarian & our resident cinephile, who have books & movies about true love to discuss.

Perhaps you can listen with your true love. Or it can just remind you how romantic you are as you yearn for true love. Or like Valentine's Day in general it can be a real bummer.

Howsoever you feel, if you'd like to listen, you can do so at both the KBOO website & at the Self Help Radio website. As usual, the latter requires a username & password (SHR + selfhelp) but you can download it. All the stuff that happens is below.

Happy Valentine's Day!
