Self Help Radio is not a self-help radio show. It might be something worse.

Each week host Gary explores a different theme with music & with talk. Guests are silly. The music is eclectic. It's kind of a mess.

Shows are archived here & also at the Self Help Radio website. There's a blog. There's Bluesky. There's Facebook.

Upcoming themes are on the website. Send ideas for those shows or themes to explore at gary at self help radio dot net or by text 971-319-4847.

This was a fun episode. Lots of songs about Paris, a city I have only visited once, but boy did I like it there. I hope to go again. Plus I reconnected with an old friend who married a Frenchman & now lives in Paris. & I talked with an old friend who's Belgian who loves Pa... Read more

Could it be, after a year of pandemic, everything is now calm? No, that's just this radio show. It's mainly still chaos everywhere. This week on Self Help Radio we calmed the heck down & played tunes about things that are calm. Sometimes we included things that are cool.... Read more

What? It's not sunflower season yet? Can I start planting them though? You bet I can! Self Help Radio planted three hours' worth of sunflowers on this show. They're gonna grow big! Also, there were interviews & stuff - with artist Henry O'Rourke & with television host Dam... Read more

The Self Help Radio Cinnamon Challenge - which is not the same as the "cinnamon challenge" you know about - is simply to listen to three hours of songs about cinnamon. Can you? Will you? Do you dare? But wait! It's not just songs. We also speak with the host's spiritua... Read more

"I have traveled a good deal in Concord," said Thoreau, who wasn't much of a tourist. In fact, I am not sure why I thought of that quote in relation to this episode of Self Help Radio, which was about tourism. Hm. The fate of tourism should we emerge from under the curren... Read more

Be careful, this show has some sharp edges! Yes, this week's episode of Self Help Radio is about daggers. Which aren't quite knives. I suppose a dagger is a kind of knife, but all knives are not daggers. I think daggers are fancier. They have two sharp edges. If it's ... Read more

A rare victory for the underdog radio show. Although it's the show itself declaring victory & it's not entirely clear what the battle was. Something is rotten in the state of Self Help Radio... Never you mind! Some sort of struggle happens whenever this show gets on the a... Read more

Some people - doubtless of the lower classes - have spread the scandalous allegation that Self Help Radio made a show about "lords & ladies" in a shameless attempt for patronage. Imagine if royal riches could pour upon KBOO! Alas, nothing is farther from the truth! We at... Read more

Gosh, such attitude! Three hours of attitude. In a radio program. But is that any different from most of what you hear on the radio? We think not. We think you'll be quite please with the attitude this show has taken with the theme of "attitude." In addition to some obv... Read more

It's not often one gets a souvenir from a radio program, but this week's Self Help Radio is one giant souvenir. It's probably not going to fit on your knick-knack shelf, & won't be collectible in any sense, but it is something you can keep, & use to remember an experien... Read more
