Self Help Radio 060722: Knees


Please be aware the person responsible for Self Help Radio is not an anatomist nor has ever received any training about the human body.  Which is an admonition that perhaps some of the things you'll hear on this show are going to be wrong.

That being said, there sure were a lot of songs about knees on this week's show.  Whether someone was knee deep in something, or weak at the knees, got down on their knees, or approached something on bended knee - or just talked about a kneebone - the world of the knee was explored in a hopefully comprehensive way in song.  In between the songs, there were interviews with an athlete who has had many knee surgeries, to the orthopedic surgeon who performed those surgeries, & to someone who talks to their knees.  Idiomatic knees were discussed as was arguably the most famous song that mentions a knee, "Oh Susannah."

Kneedless to say, knee health is very important, so if you take anything away from this show, it's that you kneed to take care of your knees.  What?  Did I say something wrong?  What?
