The universe has good news for the lost, lonely and heartsick.
Sugar is here, the both of us speaking straight into your ears.
I'm Cheryl strayed.
I'm Steve Almond.
This is dear sugar radio.
Oh, dear.
So won't you please share some little sweetness with me?
I check my bell eyes every day oh, in the sugar you see in my way.
Hi, Cheryl.
Hi, Steve.
How are you doing?
I'm good.
Here we are talking in my hometown.
I often say on the credits, Portland, Oregon, my hometown.
And we're going to talk about home today.
We get so many unexpected letters.
I say unexpected because I usually think of our show as being one where we discuss these psychological issues and family dysfunctions.
But we get a lot of letters from people who say, should I live here or there?
Or I want to live here and he wants to live there, or should I go off and do this?
