In a previous show, six months ago - you can listen here! - Self Help Radio played lots of music from 1986. Host Gary turned 18 that year, graduated high school, went off to college, & somewhere in-between got his first kiss. & while many folks might be a bit perplexed why it took him so long to get a first kiss, in his defense, he points out that he was ugly, fat, & shy. But once in college, he was able to spend most of his money on records & 1986 was the year his love of music got serious. Even if no one kissed again for like two years. Two years! The music must've been great.
It was. So much so it's taken two shows to just begin to showcase the music from that year that Gary absolutely loves. Also during the show, he tells some embarrassing stories from his past. Enjoy.
