Self Help Radio 102924: Halloween 2024 - Scarecrows!


You don't have to be a crow to be scared of scarecrows. Those creepy mock humans in cast-off clothing just sitting out there in the fields day in & day out - they must cause farmers nightmares!
They are therefore a perfect subject for this year's Halloween show! In addition to lots of scarecrow tunes, we talk to the only survivor of the scarecrow killer, to a person who works as a human scarecrow, to a psychologist who studies fears (like the fear of scarecrows), & to a local activist who wants to ban scarecrows. Also, our resident cinephile Chuck stops by to talk about scarecrows in films.
It's a spooky good time but won't protect you from the scarecrow climbing down from his spot in the fields & coming to murder you. Sorry.
Note: the last hour is a repeat of last week's episode of Corporate Standardized Programming. I have been a little under the weather.
