Episode #49: Wheel of Fortune

I think when anyone hosts a radio show they trick themselves into believing they have to put up a front of some sort. Even when a host is being honest, they still attempt to present a certain invulnerability. I admit I'm self-aware about that. The first 48 episodes of Star Time milked that approach to the bone. I imagine I'll continue that approach next week. In fact, for the first three-quarters of Episode 49, I do. But for reasons I'm sure will be obvious, I couldn't hide out the whole episode, and I trust my listeners too much to believe I had any other choice. That's all I have to say. Thank you for listening.
