	3:20am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Hi from Holland @3:20 It WAS! I thought about doing my cat episode but this was already in the works! :(
	💣 ♥ 3:24am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @3:20 it was a website that you fed videos off of youtube, usually music, and it made a eisenstein style montage out of them, i forget if it included any audio, but it was shut down because of some sort of rights issue... all of this... iirc
	💣 ♥ 3:28am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): Just got out of a Friday afternoon meeting that went overtime.
	3:32am Hi from Holland: Is there a typo on Paultra's bandcamp page? Text says "HAPPANED" cover image says "HAPPENED" ...
	3:32am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Hi from Holland @3:32 Ah! The page seems to link to that one song... lemme find another
	3:33am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Hi from Holland @3:32 paultraviolet.bandcamp.com...

	3:33am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @3:28 The WORST!
	3:34am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @3:24 Ah! Yeah, this is all new to me!
	💣 ♥ 3:35am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @3:34 it was fun while it lasted, from around '05-'06
	3:36am Hi from Holland: If Paultra's Heart is still hanging around: text & image differ https://paultraviolet.bandcamp.com/track/weve-already-happaned - but no doubt intentional.

	💣 ♥ 3:39am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Hi from Holland @3:38 no, if you can believe it, a very serious sinus infection
	3:40am Paultra Violet: ↳ Hi from Holland @3:39 Fixed! Updated! 🤖
	💣 ♥ 3:42am tom tom the pipers son: @ maggie: the art on beth israel jacket reminds me of the artist ebecho muslimova, you might like what she does, quite humorous
	3:43am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @3:42 I'm quite familiar with her work! haha
	💣 ♥ 3:44am tom tom the pipers son: oh, funny...

	💣 ♥ 3:48am spodiodi: greetings, Maggie Hertz!
	3:49am Maggie Hertz!: Hellllooooo!
	3:49am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Ike @3:47 GOOD!!
	💣 ♥ 3:51am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Surrender to Love" by "Daniel Higgs" would like to hear/see this produced live...
	♥ 3:51am coelacanth∅: Greetings Maggie, bombardiers
	3:52am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:51 Greeeeetings!
	3:53am Hi from Holland: ↳ Song: "Surrender to Love" by "Daniel Higgs" That wailing in the back has a bit of a Diamanda Galás vibe to it.
	💣 ♥ 3:55am Paulo AD: I just had a swim now I feel terrible. I think last nights wine hit me haha
	💣 ♥ 3:55am Paulo AD: ↳ Hi from Holland @3:53 Second time in two days that name has come up in my life
	3:56am Maggie Hertz!: SAME!!
	3:56am Maggie Hertz!: This must mean something
	💣 ♥ 4:03am Paulo AD: Means we're all connected, like a cosmic jumbo haha
	💣 ♥ 4:03am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ Maggie Hertz! @3:56 SYNCHRONICITIES! I watched a paranormal documentary TV series, Hellier, and it was so boring. Nothing actually happens but people have lots of random synchronicities and are they rant on about it.
	💣 ♥ 4:03am Paulo AD: *gumbo
	4:03am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Paulo AD @4:03 Same diff! hahaha
	💣 ♥ 4:04am tom tom the pipers son: happy to see diamanda galas likes doris day who i always thought was a good singer, and liked amy winehouse despite her r&b stick, which i personally had a hard time getting past
	💣 ♥ 4:04am Paulo AD: As my dad would say "same shit, different smell" haha
	4:04am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @4:03 Oh I'm in! Listen, I'll give anything a pinch of time for the penny!
	4:05am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Paulo AD @4:04 Stealin' this from pops, sorry!
	💣 ♥ 4:06am Paulo AD: Or his other version "same shit, different shovel"
	4:06am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:04 Meh, Amy was the bee's knees in any aspect!
	💣 ♥ 4:06am Paulo AD: I'm looking at a giant painting I have of amy on my wall right now. Its a portrait of her made from her lyrics
	💣 ♥ 4:07am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ Maggie Hertz! @4:04 I love a good bad paranormal TV show but this was way too stretched out. Aliens allegedly came out of those Kentucky caves but they were doing everything to avoid going in to investigate.
	💣 ♥ 4:07am Paulo AD: www.etsy.com...
	4:08am ERIK (VT): Why?, because we are compelled too !!!
	💣 ♥ 4:09am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @4:06 yeah, i probably should have looked past image...
	💣 ♥ 4:12am tom tom the pipers son: never forget amy going on..." my blake, incarcerated"
	💣 ♥ 4:14am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Charlie & Colleen Plan a Date" by "Unknown" did he say "pots-terity"?
	4:14am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Paulo AD @4:07 Veryyyy cool!
	4:15am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @4:07 Same! Certainly have a bunch to research on the Kentucky front, but a big fan of the hunt!
	4:16am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ ERIK (VT) @4:08 TRUE!
	♥ 4:19am coelacanth∅: these 2 are making sparks
	4:19am Maggie Hertz!: Is it hot in here, or is it just Colleen and Charlie???
	💣 ♥ 4:20am spodiodi: seriously
	♥ 4:20am coelacanth∅: haha
	♥ 4:20am derekleif: Hey, Maggie, Derek from Beverly here. If you'e going to be playing music about the sublime pleasures of a good relationship, here goes: I'm 57. Eight years ago, as my marriage disintegrated (abusive, abusive, abusive), it became clear that the woman I dated in college back in 1987 was the love of my life. I now live with the love of my life, and am marrying her in October. And just as you said: oh, the joy of the simplicity. To kiss her good night, as we are surrounded by our two bassets, Opus and Trixie, and our tuxedo cat Piper, who loves belly scratches as much as Opus and Trixie love belly rubs. To wake up next to her and rub her shoulder, and tell her I love her, to then have our morning talk, where we occasionally stop to hold hands. I did not know until now that life's true meaning comes from those little moments. A while back, a student was helping me unload stuff from my car. Megan called--that would be the goddess I'm glorifying in this missive--and we chatted. I was all aw shucks and G rated, as I often am in conversations, both within earshot of students and away from said earshot (I'm a gentleman, missy). Anyway, I told her I love her more than life itself, hung up, and got back to the business of heading back to the library (I'm the librarian at Lowell High School, alma matter of Jack Kerouac). "Mr. Leif," said the student who was helping me, "you're, like, old fashioned." "Well, Xavier," I said, "I'm old." "No," he said, "it's, like, really nice and comforting. Keep being old fashioned." I smiled. "I'll do that, Xavier. And that was such a nice thing to say." Anyway, enough outta me.
	♥ 4:23am derekleif: It is my sincerest hope that my last post left no one violently ill.
	♥ 4:23am derekleif: Sigh, however...I do adore that woman.
	💣 ♥ 4:24am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ derekleif @4:20 Very nice. You should get permission to tape your conversations and then send them in. On second thought, that might not be the best course of action.
	💣 ♥ 4:24am tom tom the pipers son: do people still "tawk" like colleen and charlie? it's hard to hear contemporaries accents.
	4:26am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ derekleif @4:23 ILL????? Derek, you're writing me with nothing but positive and loving sentiments about the very topic of this mixtape! Admittedly, I have more of the cynical side of things to attest to, so hearin this is exactly what I needed!
	4:27am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @4:24 Hahahaha Maybe not ALL of the conversation!
	4:27am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:24 They suuuuure do!
	4:28am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ derekleif @4:23 She sounds delightful, and all I've heard about her is how devoted you are to her... which I think speaks volumes!
	💣 ♥ 4:28am Krys O.: Marnin'!
	💣 ♥ 4:28am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @4:27 i like hearing that...
	4:28am Audio Voyeur Tastic: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @4:24 I’m all ears =👂’s
	4:28am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Krys O. @4:28 Gooood morning!!
	💣 ♥ 4:29am Sprattus Sprattus: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @4:24 ...or carry around a big ol' DAT recorder, a boom and headphones so people make no mistake you're a recorder for and of life
	💣 ♥ 4:30am Sprattus Sprattus: also...Bombest morning to all
	♥ 4:30am derekleif: Hey, Maggie, thanx so much...and hey, don't think this positive stuff doesn't come after a great deal of pain. It took a long time of thinking that everything has to be so, so intense before I saw that there is so much happiness in stillness and subtle things. From FOMO to RONMO (Realization of Not Missing Out) to RIATPIL (Realization I'm Actually Taking Part in Life)...it took a long time, a long time. Relax, kid, the good stuff, and positive, chill relationship...it'll come, if it hasn't already.
	4:30am Audio Voyeur Tastic: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:24 I believe there is duo show even on WFMU that illustrates a type of “tawk”.
	4:30am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Sprattus Sprattus @4:30 Sprattus!! Thank you soooo much for the tape!! I shouted ya the heck out last week, but thanks again!
	4:32am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ derekleif @4:30 I'm nothin' but a bundle of patience, but it's still just nice to know it exists beyond my peripheral.. or most of the folks I know, for that matter...
	♥ 4:32am Mr. Pumpy: Good morning from Hobart, NY, Maggie and all the beautiful people! Enjoying Woof-Moo and some early morning thunderstorms up here in the Catskills.
	💣 ♥ 4:33am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Audio Voyeur Tastic @4:30 oh, what show on wfmu, i have a hard time hearing ny accent contemporaneously
	4:33am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Mr. Pumpy @4:32 Well, good morning!! Stoked we get to accompany the storms! Still waiting for them down here in Jersey!
	💣 ♥ 4:34am spodiodi: good morning, Mr. Pumpy!
	♥ 4:34am Mr. Pumpy: Spod!
	💣 ♥ 4:35am Sprattus Sprattus: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @4:30 Oh cool! You're welcome. I doubted over-seas mail ever reach their destination especially when sent via the slowest option, but nice that it did! The tape isn't really on-air material but I bet you don't have quite anything like it...not in moon-language anyway (When you gots the time, check out "hyvät herrat intro" at YT, it's the show in question)
	4:36am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Sprattus Sprattus @4:35 NOT AIR MATERIAL??? LOL! I've already been basing a show around it, so joke's on you! :P It did make it, safe and sound, and it made my week! The drawing was great, as well! So, thanks again!
	4:37am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Sprattus Sprattus @4:35 The show is on my watchlist for the weekend, too!
	4:38am Maggie Hertz!: Man, I love casssssettesssss
	4:38am Audio Voyeur Tastic: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:33 Can’t hurt to peruse the duo shows - opens the👂’s (PM Hours - EST).
	💣 ♥ 4:40am Sprattus Sprattus: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @4:36 Well... YOU'RE THE DJ! (...or CJ?)
	4:40am Hi from Holland: Tea, gateway aphrodisiac ...
	4:40am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Sprattus Sprattus @4:40 I'm in the process of trademarking CJ lol
	4:40am LiXiviated Life: hello shiny electronic denizens I’m wide awake in Schenectady listening to a rain storm & this Tomorrow will be Interesting
	4:41am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ LiXiviated Life @4:40 i like to think awkward sex stories and rain storms are the wine and cheese of radio...
	💣 ♥ 4:41am Strandlund: Good Morning Maggie and everyone tuned in...
	♥ 4:41am Mr. Pumpy: Summer sauces and necking...easy, big fella!
	♥ 4:42am coelacanth∅: ↳ derekleif @4:20 i like reading that. i had to start some food heating, i just got home from work and hungry. i can't relate it to my life at this point, but i'm happy for people who have anything along the lines of what you have.
	4:42am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Strandlund @4:41 Good morning!
	♥ 4:44am coelacanth∅: ↳ Mr. Pumpy @4:32 hey Mr. P
	4:45am LiXiviated Life: Schenectady is the cheese and macaroni of the Capitol Region. (and Albany is asking for a divorce)
	💣 ♥ 4:47am tom tom the pipers son: only one or two daytime soap operas left, right?
	💣 ♥ 4:49am Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Side A (Excerpt)" by "Daniel Steven Crafts" This is great!
	4:49am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ LiXiviated Life @4:45 I can dig it... (And Albany can take a hike!)
	4:50am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:47 Is Passions still on?????
	4:51am LiXiviated Life: I’ve come to the realization that I’m too old to be sleeping on a sofa in Schenectady ( which is probably why I’m not sleeping on this sofa in Schenectady)
	4:52am LiXiviated Life: “… I’ve got so much to learn”
	💣 ♥ 4:53am tom tom the pipers son: never heard of that one... but soaps have gone the way of print newspapers, phone booths, etc.
	💣 ♥ 4:53am Krys O.: I didn't know my father was in Puerto Rico.
	4:55am Maggie Hertz!: COME ON TELL ME!
	💣 ♥ 4:56am Krys O.: Fat chance of getting that promotion now. You CAN watch soap operas . www.aarp.org...
	4:56am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Krys O. @4:56 OMGGGG!!
	4:57am Audio Voyeur Tastic: ↳ Song: "Charlie & Colleen Plan a Date" by "Unknown" How’d this even get saved and found!? Is it authentic? What’s the mysterious recording machine they speak of that seems to be auto-selecting its preferences?’ = Freakin Priceless.
	4:59am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Audio Voyeur Tastic @4:57 It's authentic! An answering machine tape for an MTA worker in Brooklyn in the late 80s! I've played other messages in other shows :)
	💣 ♥ 4:59am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @4:56 ah, so three of them left...
	💣 ♥ 4:59am Krys O.: Taping things off TV was a big thing.
	5:00am Maggie Hertz!: The thunder and lightning has officially hit Jersey City!!
	💣 ♥ 5:01am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @4:59 the audio kitchen was a v. good fmu show, in archives...
	♥ 5:01am coelacanth∅: ↳ Audio Voyeur Tastic @4:57 my whole adult life until i no longer had a landline i had answering machines that used regular cassette tapes. i never flipped them back to side a; i replaced them in the machine with a new (usually old, used) one, and saved them. i probably have ~15 cassettes full of voicemails.
	♥ 5:02am coelacanth∅: - and yes the machine would sometimes record conversations after the phone had been picked up -but i never noticed any selectivity on the answering machine's part!
	💣 ♥ 5:03am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:01 I can only think of one song about answering machines - The Replacements song. Lots of telephone songs exist.
	5:03am Maggie Hertz!: Ummmmm Send them to Cat Bomb plzzzz??
	💣 ♥ 5:03am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @4:59 had a small reel to reel as a kid and used to tape off tv all the time
	5:03am Maggie Hertz!: I've been workin on a project... I'll talk about it on the mic break!
	♥ 5:05am coelacanth∅: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @5:03 i know that one! i think there's another - female vocal...hmmm
	5:08am LiXiviated Life: Car Balm Radio?
	♥ 5:11am coelacanth∅: i also sometimes recorded conversations using a microphone up to the phone, when i was a teenager. those mostly made it onto sound collage tapes i once made. Maggie if i were to send you tapes i'd have to send you copies. i still have fantasies of having time to do something creative with them.
	💣 ♥ 5:11am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): Is that the love between a man and a woman or a man for a fine Cuban cigar?
	💣 ♥ 5:13am Krys O.: The storm is here too in Bloomfield, NJ about 8 miles from Jersey City.
	💣 ♥ 5:14am Krys O.: I'm going to take car service to work this morning. Not the kind of morning to be walking about.
	5:17am Maggie Hertz!: That cassette did NOT want to play... My gooosh
	💣 ♥ 5:17am Krys O.: I've still got boxes with some unmarked cassettes. I had hundreds of tapes back in the day. Some were stolen by persons unknown and many were stolen by a known person.
	5:17am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Krys O. @5:14 Yeah, this is a cab morning, for sure!
	💣 ♥ 5:17am tom tom the pipers son: walking in the rain in the suburbs reminds me of the end of the swimmer w/ burt lancaster, but that was in the fall
	5:17am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @5:17 I do love this!
	5:18am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:11 I'm content with copies!
	💣 ♥ 5:18am Krys O.: I don't mind the rain. I just don't want to get killed by lightning. My mom had two cousins who were struck and killed by lightning at different times.
	5:19am Maggie Hertz!: My cassettes were givin' me hell, so I didn't get to spew on air - I am about to open a public landline to record missed connections, to be premiered on air weekly! Would love some old VM cassettes to flank those!
	💣 ♥ 5:19am Krys O.: I typically walk two miles by the time I get to work and I take two buses.
	5:20am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Krys O. @5:18 That's wild! I've heard stories, but never folks I know personally!
	💣 ♥ 5:20am Krys O.: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @5:19 Awesome!
	♥ 5:21am coelacanth∅: ↳ Krys O. @5:17 i'm pissed off on your behalf now. i always considered stealing from someone's music (sound recording) collection a high crime!
	💣 ♥ 5:22am Krys O.: Those who survived being struck by lightning are ostracized and have great difficulties. I read an article years ago about how the survivors connect with each other for support.
	5:22am Erik (VT): Our family has had a coupla doozy mistaken phone 📞 machine messages in the past. It’s been a challenge to save them. But my sister has kept a few on her mobile phone. One was of a classic religious sort (a lost soul looking for pastor guidance). But the best was a 4 month(?) epic (perhaps 20+ repeat calls) from an elderly couple looking for their daughter. After they had their multi-media provider set up new tech that kept screwing up (perhaps or by the end perhaps not ?!). It’s like an episodic epic one sided drama that just keeps building message after message. (Including the parents understandably getting more & more irked with their own back & forth) for our audio delight. I would hope to preserve it. It’s vulnerable to getting lost forever. Sigh 🫣🫨🥴.
	5:22am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Krys O. @5:19 Oh woof! I did that when I lived in the Bronx, but I've been spoiled by Brooklyn!
	💣 ♥ 5:22am Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Side A + B" by "Bill Anderson" Whispering Bill!
	5:23am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Erik (VT) @5:22 One can totally digitize and archive! They sound well worth it!!
	💣 ♥ 5:23am tom tom the pipers son: what's going on that love and other stories jacket w/ the guy in the toupee?
	💣 ♥ 5:25am Paulo AD: Right, gym for me. Great show Magz, see you in two weeks. Off home for the weekend next week
	♥ 5:25am coelacanth∅: ↳ Krys O. @5:22 wow... those doing the ostracizing must be connecting dots that aren't in my drawing book.
	💣 ♥ 5:25am Krys O.: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:21 Thanks. I'll spare you the sordid vinyl history. Suffice it to say that I saved about 50 LPs of what once was a collection of almost a thousand albums.
	5:26am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Paulo AD @5:25 Heck yeah! Enjoy!! See ya in two weeks!
	💣 ♥ 5:27am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): I did a songwriting course once. The teacher said when it comes to writing love songs, "don't be coy". That last song was definitely not coy nor subtle.
	♥ 5:29am coelacanth∅: ↳ Krys O. @5:25 oh jeez. i'm sorry. i think i've only had 5 albums stolen in my whole life. anyway enjoy your workout!
	💣 ♥ 5:30am Krys O.: I have a USB cassette deck to digitize things. I did that for a cassette of my friend's music. I still get wrong voice mails, but with my VoIP I can download the messages digitally. I made a couple of videos using them. This one is my favorite: youtu.be...
	💣 ♥ 5:32am Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @5:23 That's Bill Anderson. His biggest hit was Still. He had a long running TV show on CMT.
	5:34am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Krys O. @5:30 Oh cool! I'll check this out!
	💣 ♥ 5:34am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @5:32 oh, thanks, didn't think it had anything to do intrinsically with the music...
	💣 ♥ 5:36am Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @5:34 Lots of country albums had covers that reflected the song topics: cheatin', drinkin', and lovin'.
	♥ 5:36am coelacanth∅: Bill Anderson released a new album in 2020, at the age of 82
	💣 ♥ 5:37am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @5:36 ha! this one very 80's, think a scene from dallas or dynasty
	♥ 5:40am coelacanth∅: ↳ Krys O. @5:30 ha..."Krys, Krystina, whatever your name is"!
	♥ 5:41am JohnEBGood: ↳ Song: "Side A + B" by "Bill Anderson" Ride on Baby Ride. Love this. Thanks DJ. Have a great weekend all : )
	5:42am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ JohnEBGood @5:41 Have a wonderful weekend!! Thanks for hanging!
	💣 ♥ 5:42am Krys O.: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:40 My phone number used to be a hair salon's number. Had similar messages.
	💣 ♥ 5:43am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @5:36 had a childhood friend who's parents were very big country fans and very knowledgable about it which was a bit of an anomaly growing up on long island but they were really into country's narratives
	♥ 5:45am mon!ka: i need to start waking up earlier on fridays! great show! good morning!
	💣 ♥ 5:45am Krys O.: Lots of laffs this morning, Maggie. Thanks so much!
	💣 ♥ 5:46am Strandlund: ↳ Song: "Side A + B" by "Various Artists" Ok...this is now my favorite Honeymooners' song.
	5:46am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ mon!ka @5:45 Gooooood morning!
	5:46am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Krys O. @5:45 Thanks so much for keepin' us all company this morning! See ya next week! Hope your trip into work is easy peasy!
	💣 ♥ 5:48am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): I've never watched The Honeymooners. Everything I know about the show if via Futurama: www.youtube.com...
	5:49am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @5:48 Hahahaha I mean, it's kinda all ya need to know!
	💣 ♥ 5:50am Krys O.: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @5:48 I know the classic 39 episodes by heart. There used to be Honeymooner marathons on NYC area TV.
	💣 ♥ 5:50am Ken From Hyde Park: To the moon, Alice! Thanks, Maggie.
	💣 ♥ 5:50am Sprattus Sprattus: ↳ mon!ka @5:45 As someone who's living a life without alarms, adjusting inner clock to this show is worth it! (Albeit waking up is not always easy) HEY! Great show again! Thanks
	5:50am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @5:50 Thanks for chillin, Ken!!
	5:51am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Sprattus Sprattus @5:50 Thanks AGAIN for the lovely cassette and for hanging out with me another week! See ya soon!

Cat Bomb! Radio with Maggie Hertz!: Playlist from August 18, 2023

View Maggie Hertz!'s profile

A show that kinda feels like Casey Kasem cookin’ up crockpot shortwave pirate radio, but with a lot more curbside cassette mixtapes, lost radio serials, French Canadian comedy… and zings, pings, and static. Or, well, maybe it doesn’t feel anything like that at all.

	3:20am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Hi from Holland @3:20 It WAS! I thought about doing my cat episode but this was already in the works! :(
	💣 ♥ 3:24am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @3:20 it was a website that you fed videos off of youtube, usually music, and it made a eisenstein style montage out of them, i forget if it included any audio, but it was shut down because of some sort of rights issue... all of this... iirc
	💣 ♥ 3:28am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): Just got out of a Friday afternoon meeting that went overtime.
	3:32am Hi from Holland: Is there a typo on Paultra's bandcamp page? Text says "HAPPANED" cover image says "HAPPENED" ...
	3:32am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Hi from Holland @3:32 Ah! The page seems to link to that one song... lemme find another

	3:34am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @3:24 Ah! Yeah, this is all new to me!
	💣 ♥ 3:35am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @3:34 it was fun while it lasted, from around '05-'06
	3:36am Hi from Holland: If Paultra's Heart is still hanging around: text & image differ https://paultraviolet.bandcamp.com/track/weve-already-happaned - but no doubt intentional.

	3:40am Paultra Violet: ↳ Hi from Holland @3:39 Fixed! Updated! 🤖
	💣 ♥ 3:42am tom tom the pipers son: @ maggie: the art on beth israel jacket reminds me of the artist ebecho muslimova, you might like what she does, quite humorous
	3:43am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @3:42 I'm quite familiar with her work! haha

	💣 ♥ 3:51am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Surrender to Love" by "Daniel Higgs" would like to hear/see this produced live...
	♥ 3:51am coelacanth∅: Greetings Maggie, bombardiers
	3:52am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:51 Greeeeetings!
	3:53am Hi from Holland: ↳ Song: "Surrender to Love" by "Daniel Higgs" That wailing in the back has a bit of a Diamanda Galás vibe to it.
	💣 ♥ 3:55am Paulo AD: I just had a swim now I feel terrible. I think last nights wine hit me haha
	💣 ♥ 3:55am Paulo AD: ↳ Hi from Holland @3:53 Second time in two days that name has come up in my life
	3:56am Maggie Hertz!: SAME!!
	3:56am Maggie Hertz!: This must mean something
	💣 ♥ 4:03am Paulo AD: Means we're all connected, like a cosmic jumbo haha
	💣 ♥ 4:03am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ Maggie Hertz! @3:56 SYNCHRONICITIES! I watched a paranormal documentary TV series, Hellier, and it was so boring. Nothing actually happens but people have lots of random synchronicities and are they rant on about it.
	💣 ♥ 4:03am Paulo AD: *gumbo
	4:03am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Paulo AD @4:03 Same diff! hahaha
	💣 ♥ 4:04am tom tom the pipers son: happy to see diamanda galas likes doris day who i always thought was a good singer, and liked amy winehouse despite her r&b stick, which i personally had a hard time getting past
	💣 ♥ 4:04am Paulo AD: As my dad would say "same shit, different smell" haha
	4:04am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @4:03 Oh I'm in! Listen, I'll give anything a pinch of time for the penny!
	4:05am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Paulo AD @4:04 Stealin' this from pops, sorry!
	💣 ♥ 4:06am Paulo AD: Or his other version "same shit, different shovel"
	4:06am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:04 Meh, Amy was the bee's knees in any aspect!
	💣 ♥ 4:06am Paulo AD: I'm looking at a giant painting I have of amy on my wall right now. Its a portrait of her made from her lyrics
	💣 ♥ 4:07am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ Maggie Hertz! @4:04 I love a good bad paranormal TV show but this was way too stretched out. Aliens allegedly came out of those Kentucky caves but they were doing everything to avoid going in to investigate.
	💣 ♥ 4:07am Paulo AD: www.etsy.com...
	4:08am ERIK (VT): Why?, because we are compelled too !!!
	💣 ♥ 4:09am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @4:06 yeah, i probably should have looked past image...
	💣 ♥ 4:12am tom tom the pipers son: never forget amy going on..." my blake, incarcerated"
	💣 ♥ 4:14am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Charlie & Colleen Plan a Date" by "Unknown" did he say "pots-terity"?
	4:14am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Paulo AD @4:07 Veryyyy cool!
	4:15am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @4:07 Same! Certainly have a bunch to research on the Kentucky front, but a big fan of the hunt!
	4:16am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ ERIK (VT) @4:08 TRUE!
	♥ 4:19am coelacanth∅: these 2 are making sparks
	4:19am Maggie Hertz!: Is it hot in here, or is it just Colleen and Charlie???
	💣 ♥ 4:20am spodiodi: seriously
	♥ 4:20am coelacanth∅: haha
	♥ 4:20am derekleif: Hey, Maggie, Derek from Beverly here. If you'e going to be playing music about the sublime pleasures of a good relationship, here goes: I'm 57. Eight years ago, as my marriage disintegrated (abusive, abusive, abusive), it became clear that the woman I dated in college back in 1987 was the love of my life. I now live with the love of my life, and am marrying her in October. And just as you said: oh, the joy of the simplicity. To kiss her good night, as we are surrounded by our two bassets, Opus and Trixie, and our tuxedo cat Piper, who loves belly scratches as much as Opus and Trixie love belly rubs. To wake up next to her and rub her shoulder, and tell her I love her, to then have our morning talk, where we occasionally stop to hold hands. I did not know until now that life's true meaning comes from those little moments. A while back, a student was helping me unload stuff from my car. Megan called--that would be the goddess I'm glorifying in this missive--and we chatted. I was all aw shucks and G rated, as I often am in conversations, both within earshot of students and away from said earshot (I'm a gentleman, missy). Anyway, I told her I love her more than life itself, hung up, and got back to the business of heading back to the library (I'm the librarian at Lowell High School, alma matter of Jack Kerouac). "Mr. Leif," said the student who was helping me, "you're, like, old fashioned." "Well, Xavier," I said, "I'm old." "No," he said, "it's, like, really nice and comforting. Keep being old fashioned." I smiled. "I'll do that, Xavier. And that was such a nice thing to say." Anyway, enough outta me.
	♥ 4:23am derekleif: It is my sincerest hope that my last post left no one violently ill.
	♥ 4:23am derekleif: Sigh, however...I do adore that woman.
	💣 ♥ 4:24am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ derekleif @4:20 Very nice. You should get permission to tape your conversations and then send them in. On second thought, that might not be the best course of action.
	💣 ♥ 4:24am tom tom the pipers son: do people still "tawk" like colleen and charlie? it's hard to hear contemporaries accents.
	4:26am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ derekleif @4:23 ILL????? Derek, you're writing me with nothing but positive and loving sentiments about the very topic of this mixtape! Admittedly, I have more of the cynical side of things to attest to, so hearin this is exactly what I needed!
	4:27am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @4:24 Hahahaha Maybe not ALL of the conversation!
	4:27am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:24 They suuuuure do!
	4:28am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ derekleif @4:23 She sounds delightful, and all I've heard about her is how devoted you are to her... which I think speaks volumes!
	💣 ♥ 4:28am Krys O.: Marnin'!
	💣 ♥ 4:28am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @4:27 i like hearing that...
	4:28am Audio Voyeur Tastic: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @4:24 I’m all ears =👂’s
	4:28am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Krys O. @4:28 Gooood morning!!
	💣 ♥ 4:29am Sprattus Sprattus: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @4:24 ...or carry around a big ol' DAT recorder, a boom and headphones so people make no mistake you're a recorder for and of life
	💣 ♥ 4:30am Sprattus Sprattus: also...Bombest morning to all
	♥ 4:30am derekleif: Hey, Maggie, thanx so much...and hey, don't think this positive stuff doesn't come after a great deal of pain. It took a long time of thinking that everything has to be so, so intense before I saw that there is so much happiness in stillness and subtle things. From FOMO to RONMO (Realization of Not Missing Out) to RIATPIL (Realization I'm Actually Taking Part in Life)...it took a long time, a long time. Relax, kid, the good stuff, and positive, chill relationship...it'll come, if it hasn't already.
	4:30am Audio Voyeur Tastic: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:24 I believe there is duo show even on WFMU that illustrates a type of “tawk”.
	4:30am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Sprattus Sprattus @4:30 Sprattus!! Thank you soooo much for the tape!! I shouted ya the heck out last week, but thanks again!
	4:32am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ derekleif @4:30 I'm nothin' but a bundle of patience, but it's still just nice to know it exists beyond my peripheral.. or most of the folks I know, for that matter...
	♥ 4:32am Mr. Pumpy: Good morning from Hobart, NY, Maggie and all the beautiful people! Enjoying Woof-Moo and some early morning thunderstorms up here in the Catskills.
	💣 ♥ 4:33am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Audio Voyeur Tastic @4:30 oh, what show on wfmu, i have a hard time hearing ny accent contemporaneously
	4:33am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Mr. Pumpy @4:32 Well, good morning!! Stoked we get to accompany the storms! Still waiting for them down here in Jersey!
	💣 ♥ 4:34am spodiodi: good morning, Mr. Pumpy!
	♥ 4:34am Mr. Pumpy: Spod!
	💣 ♥ 4:35am Sprattus Sprattus: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @4:30 Oh cool! You're welcome. I doubted over-seas mail ever reach their destination especially when sent via the slowest option, but nice that it did! The tape isn't really on-air material but I bet you don't have quite anything like it...not in moon-language anyway (When you gots the time, check out "hyvät herrat intro" at YT, it's the show in question)
	4:36am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Sprattus Sprattus @4:35 NOT AIR MATERIAL??? LOL! I've already been basing a show around it, so joke's on you! :P It did make it, safe and sound, and it made my week! The drawing was great, as well! So, thanks again!
	4:37am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Sprattus Sprattus @4:35 The show is on my watchlist for the weekend, too!
	4:38am Maggie Hertz!: Man, I love casssssettesssss
	4:38am Audio Voyeur Tastic: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:33 Can’t hurt to peruse the duo shows - opens the👂’s (PM Hours - EST).
	💣 ♥ 4:40am Sprattus Sprattus: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @4:36 Well... YOU'RE THE DJ! (...or CJ?)
	4:40am Hi from Holland: Tea, gateway aphrodisiac ...
	4:40am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Sprattus Sprattus @4:40 I'm in the process of trademarking CJ lol
	4:40am LiXiviated Life: hello shiny electronic denizens I’m wide awake in Schenectady listening to a rain storm & this Tomorrow will be Interesting
	4:41am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ LiXiviated Life @4:40 i like to think awkward sex stories and rain storms are the wine and cheese of radio...
	💣 ♥ 4:41am Strandlund: Good Morning Maggie and everyone tuned in...
	♥ 4:41am Mr. Pumpy: Summer sauces and necking...easy, big fella!
	♥ 4:42am coelacanth∅: ↳ derekleif @4:20 i like reading that. i had to start some food heating, i just got home from work and hungry. i can't relate it to my life at this point, but i'm happy for people who have anything along the lines of what you have.
	4:42am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Strandlund @4:41 Good morning!
	♥ 4:44am coelacanth∅: ↳ Mr. Pumpy @4:32 hey Mr. P
	4:45am LiXiviated Life: Schenectady is the cheese and macaroni of the Capitol Region. (and Albany is asking for a divorce)
	💣 ♥ 4:47am tom tom the pipers son: only one or two daytime soap operas left, right?
	💣 ♥ 4:49am Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Side A (Excerpt)" by "Daniel Steven Crafts" This is great!
	4:49am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ LiXiviated Life @4:45 I can dig it... (And Albany can take a hike!)
	4:50am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:47 Is Passions still on?????
	4:51am LiXiviated Life: I’ve come to the realization that I’m too old to be sleeping on a sofa in Schenectady ( which is probably why I’m not sleeping on this sofa in Schenectady)
	4:52am LiXiviated Life: “… I’ve got so much to learn”
	💣 ♥ 4:53am tom tom the pipers son: never heard of that one... but soaps have gone the way of print newspapers, phone booths, etc.
	💣 ♥ 4:53am Krys O.: I didn't know my father was in Puerto Rico.
	4:55am Maggie Hertz!: COME ON TELL ME!
	💣 ♥ 4:56am Krys O.: Fat chance of getting that promotion now. You CAN watch soap operas . www.aarp.org...
	4:56am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Krys O. @4:56 OMGGGG!!
	4:57am Audio Voyeur Tastic: ↳ Song: "Charlie & Colleen Plan a Date" by "Unknown" How’d this even get saved and found!? Is it authentic? What’s the mysterious recording machine they speak of that seems to be auto-selecting its preferences?’ = Freakin Priceless.
	4:59am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Audio Voyeur Tastic @4:57 It's authentic! An answering machine tape for an MTA worker in Brooklyn in the late 80s! I've played other messages in other shows :)
	💣 ♥ 4:59am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @4:56 ah, so three of them left...
	💣 ♥ 4:59am Krys O.: Taping things off TV was a big thing.
	5:00am Maggie Hertz!: The thunder and lightning has officially hit Jersey City!!
	💣 ♥ 5:01am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @4:59 the audio kitchen was a v. good fmu show, in archives...
	♥ 5:01am coelacanth∅: ↳ Audio Voyeur Tastic @4:57 my whole adult life until i no longer had a landline i had answering machines that used regular cassette tapes. i never flipped them back to side a; i replaced them in the machine with a new (usually old, used) one, and saved them. i probably have ~15 cassettes full of voicemails.
	♥ 5:02am coelacanth∅: - and yes the machine would sometimes record conversations after the phone had been picked up -but i never noticed any selectivity on the answering machine's part!
	💣 ♥ 5:03am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:01 I can only think of one song about answering machines - The Replacements song. Lots of telephone songs exist.
	5:03am Maggie Hertz!: Ummmmm Send them to Cat Bomb plzzzz??
	💣 ♥ 5:03am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @4:59 had a small reel to reel as a kid and used to tape off tv all the time
	5:03am Maggie Hertz!: I've been workin on a project... I'll talk about it on the mic break!
	♥ 5:05am coelacanth∅: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @5:03 i know that one! i think there's another - female vocal...hmmm
	5:08am LiXiviated Life: Car Balm Radio?
	♥ 5:11am coelacanth∅: i also sometimes recorded conversations using a microphone up to the phone, when i was a teenager. those mostly made it onto sound collage tapes i once made. Maggie if i were to send you tapes i'd have to send you copies. i still have fantasies of having time to do something creative with them.
	💣 ♥ 5:11am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): Is that the love between a man and a woman or a man for a fine Cuban cigar?
	💣 ♥ 5:13am Krys O.: The storm is here too in Bloomfield, NJ about 8 miles from Jersey City.
	💣 ♥ 5:14am Krys O.: I'm going to take car service to work this morning. Not the kind of morning to be walking about.
	5:17am Maggie Hertz!: That cassette did NOT want to play... My gooosh
	💣 ♥ 5:17am Krys O.: I've still got boxes with some unmarked cassettes. I had hundreds of tapes back in the day. Some were stolen by persons unknown and many were stolen by a known person.
	5:17am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Krys O. @5:14 Yeah, this is a cab morning, for sure!
	💣 ♥ 5:17am tom tom the pipers son: walking in the rain in the suburbs reminds me of the end of the swimmer w/ burt lancaster, but that was in the fall
	5:17am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @5:17 I do love this!
	5:18am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:11 I'm content with copies!
	💣 ♥ 5:18am Krys O.: I don't mind the rain. I just don't want to get killed by lightning. My mom had two cousins who were struck and killed by lightning at different times.
	5:19am Maggie Hertz!: My cassettes were givin' me hell, so I didn't get to spew on air - I am about to open a public landline to record missed connections, to be premiered on air weekly! Would love some old VM cassettes to flank those!
	💣 ♥ 5:19am Krys O.: I typically walk two miles by the time I get to work and I take two buses.
	5:20am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Krys O. @5:18 That's wild! I've heard stories, but never folks I know personally!
	💣 ♥ 5:20am Krys O.: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @5:19 Awesome!
	♥ 5:21am coelacanth∅: ↳ Krys O. @5:17 i'm pissed off on your behalf now. i always considered stealing from someone's music (sound recording) collection a high crime!
	💣 ♥ 5:22am Krys O.: Those who survived being struck by lightning are ostracized and have great difficulties. I read an article years ago about how the survivors connect with each other for support.
	5:22am Erik (VT): Our family has had a coupla doozy mistaken phone 📞 machine messages in the past. It’s been a challenge to save them. But my sister has kept a few on her mobile phone. One was of a classic religious sort (a lost soul looking for pastor guidance). But the best was a 4 month(?) epic (perhaps 20+ repeat calls) from an elderly couple looking for their daughter. After they had their multi-media provider set up new tech that kept screwing up (perhaps or by the end perhaps not ?!). It’s like an episodic epic one sided drama that just keeps building message after message. (Including the parents understandably getting more & more irked with their own back & forth) for our audio delight. I would hope to preserve it. It’s vulnerable to getting lost forever. Sigh 🫣🫨🥴.
	5:22am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Krys O. @5:19 Oh woof! I did that when I lived in the Bronx, but I've been spoiled by Brooklyn!
	💣 ♥ 5:22am Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Side A + B" by "Bill Anderson" Whispering Bill!
	5:23am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Erik (VT) @5:22 One can totally digitize and archive! They sound well worth it!!
	💣 ♥ 5:23am tom tom the pipers son: what's going on that love and other stories jacket w/ the guy in the toupee?
	💣 ♥ 5:25am Paulo AD: Right, gym for me. Great show Magz, see you in two weeks. Off home for the weekend next week
	♥ 5:25am coelacanth∅: ↳ Krys O. @5:22 wow... those doing the ostracizing must be connecting dots that aren't in my drawing book.
	💣 ♥ 5:25am Krys O.: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:21 Thanks. I'll spare you the sordid vinyl history. Suffice it to say that I saved about 50 LPs of what once was a collection of almost a thousand albums.
	5:26am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ Paulo AD @5:25 Heck yeah! Enjoy!! See ya in two weeks!
	💣 ♥ 5:27am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): I did a songwriting course once. The teacher said when it comes to writing love songs, "don't be coy". That last song was definitely not coy nor subtle.
