Self Help Radio 111621: Socks


They're a popular gift.  They're a way to show support for things you love.  They absorb your foot sweat.  You may be wearing a pair right now.  They are socks.  & it's about damn time they got a radio show.

Self Help Radio this week highlight & even celebrates socks.  In addition to possibly too many songs about socks - including a bobby sox set as well as a sock hop set - there are interviews with a sock aficionado who tells us about some books featuring socks; a fellow who used to work in a sock factory; the director of the Portland Sock Puppet Theater; & because we believe in airing all sides of an issues, especially one as important as socks, we talk with someone who just plain doesn't like socks.

It's a sock show that will knock your socks off.  But please put them back on.  It's cold out there.
