It's no secret - since it's all I've been talking about here recently - I love porches. I take pictures of porches here in Portland. Look at those porches! Even the ones that can use some work are better than no porch at all. I would rather die falling through the rotting boards of a neglected old porch than live at a place with no porch! Okay, maybe not. But I wouldn't mind just falling & surviving & hanging out with the rats under the porch for a while.
Hey! Look at all these songs about porches! Plus I've added some silly fake interviews! & I talk at length about how KBOO should have a porch! It was a warm night in Lexington - I hope someone was listening from their porch.
Listen to the show now at the KBOO website or at the Self Help Radio website. If you choose the latter, remember the username SHR & the password selfhelp. Everything that happened on the show - well, all the songs I played, anyway - is mentioned below.
Now! I'm gonna sneak over to my neighbor's porch & take a nap!
