Star Time #184: Gotta Get Away From My Own Self
This episode was produced on the Saturday before the election, with the understanding that it would primarily be airing on Rainier Avenue Radio after the election. So the presumption on my part was that this show would be a little off in tone, because by the time most people heard it, they'd already have known who won the election. Hilarious, right? Anyway. I'm very very confident this episode is good, but I won't declare it a victory until Pennsylvania's done listening to it.
