About The Show

Welcome to The Bob Zima Radio Showgram — located somewhere between common sense and complete chaos.

Hosted by me, Bob Zima, a longtime radio guy, licensed counselor, author, speaker, Second City-trained comedian, and self-proclaimed Frequent Flyer to Hell and Back, the Showgram is an entertaining and educational exploration of this strange, messy, funny, painful, and occasionally magnificent experience we call life.

Through personal stories, irreverent humor, practical psychology, and lessons earned from both professional experience and personal trips to hell and back, I explore relationships, anger, conflict, grief, resilience, addiction, recovery, aging, marriage, mental wellness, and the everyday absurdities that make us ALL – human.

This isn’t a lecture. It isn’t a therapy session. And it definitely isn’t another overly polished and slickly produced self-help podcast pretending that life can be fixed in five easy steps. It’s a roller coaster ride of ideas designed to help you get your head out of your ass and your ass up off the couch and living your life.
