Self Help Radio 082024: Rotten

(Disgusting image of rotten apple by Kulmalukko*)

Sorry about that image. It's hard to find delightful pictures of rotten things. But it turns out it's not difficult to listen to songs about rotten things. I believe I have demonstrated with two hours' worth of tunes that it's the opposite of rotten. But perhaps the very idea may keep you away.

It's the end of my four-part reaction to the seeming inevitability of four more years of horror under a former president. Catastrophe, chaos, loneliness, rotten. While I'm not entirely convinced it won't happen, I think the odds are better now that it might not. I'll try not to be so negative from here on out. Or I'll try not to be as excessively negative. I'm negative by nature.

Hey! The show! Listen to it at the KBOO web site if you want! Of listen + download it at the Self Help Radio website! Use the login SHR & the password selfhelp to do that please. Lots of stuff happened on the show - it's noted below.

Seriously though. The show won't make you feel rotten. I hope.
