Coming Up Tomorrow On The Dickenbock Report: 1925 (Part I)

(image from here)

Tomorrow - Sunday, July 27 - is the first of two-part Dickenbock Report special report about the year 1925. We'll talk about the music & events of one hundred years ago. & no, it's not the year Dick Dickenbock was born! He's not that old. Not quite that old, anyway.

Sunday from 12-1pm on 91.1+107.1fm in Portland, xray dot fm everywhere. Hey! That's something that's changed - they only had radio in 1925, not web sites! But also not FM radio. That was a teaser for the show.

Self Help Radio 072225: Jigsaw

(jigsaw outline found here)

It's no puzzle - the theme this week is jigsaw. & to be honest, it wasn't that hard to put together. Maybe if there had been ten thousand songs - & all the corner pieces looked the same.

Okay I'm done with the puns & stuff related to jigsaw. Look I even made a Self Help Radio jigsaw puzzle! Let's just say you can listen now & any time at the KBOO web page or at the Self Help Radio web page. If you find you need a username & password, try SHR & self help. Otherwise, everything you need to know is below.

Good luck solving this!

Whither Jigsaw?

The theme of this week's show is "jigsaw" & there are far more songs about jigsaw puzzles than actual jigsaws. But I like just saying "jigsaw" to mean the puzzle so I went with the single word as the theme.

The idea for the show came from a listener, who said, "I have something I want to do for the show if you'll let me." So I said sure, found the songs, & scheduled the show. & then I never heard from that listener again. I thought the listener might contact me once I said, "I'll be doing a show with the theme 'jigsaw' next week," but nope! Which is fine. I'll do any theme you request - which I can find songs for - you don't have to prepare something for the show. But I admit I was curious!

Put the jigsaw show together with me tonight from midnight to 2am on 90.7 fm in Portland & online everywhere at kboo dot fm. Yeah, we'll start with the corners.

Yeah, the theme this week is "jigsaw." But it'll be more about the puzzles than the device that helps make the puzzles.
