Self Help Radio 010725: A Peculiar Show


Though probably the show is generally described as "peculiar," the first Self Help Radio of 2025 was an explicitly peculiar show. Songs involved the word peculiar, two guests who competed in the Most Peculiar Person In Portland Contest 2024 - including the winner! - & some random peculiar thoughts here & there - among other things. Peculiar may not be your thing. Self Help Radio today was darned peculiar.

The last hour presented here is an episode of Corporate Standardized Programming featuring lots of new releases - music released in the last quarter of 2024.
