Self Help Radio 112525: Magda's Birthday Show 2025


Okay, so Magda is the name of Gary's wife.
Every year around the time of her birthday, he plays a lot of songs about birthdays for her.
In this episode, he also talks to some people from her past.
It is a thoughtful but eminently cheap birthday present.
He sure hopes she is charmed by it.
(But it's for anyone with a birthday really - happy birthday!)
& by the way the last hour is an episode of Corporate Standardized Programming featuring all new releases.
It has nothing to do with birthdays. Tho you can listen as a present you give yourself.
