A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

  9:31am
yayson:

with the power of trouble in the air all thursday mornings are bright
  9:31am
annie:

(happy birthday bessie smith!!)
  9:37am
Kurt:

Trouble, your show is great but your politics comments are right out of the left-wing nut job handbook
  9:39am
trts:

bahh, Kurt.

Way to generalize and pass sweeping judgment.

Foul ball
  9:39am
J-Mar:

Hooray for left-wing nut jobs!
  9:40am
Kurt:

It wasn't I generalizing or passing sweeping judgments.
  9:41am
trts:

Oh perfect Kurt.
  9:42am
jonathan thomas:

Trouble, your show is great luckily your political comments are left out of the right-wing nut job handbook
  9:42am
Kurt:

Glad to do my part to MUSH the chat board
  9:43am
Bad Ronald:

Let's stick to facts as opposed to opinions. "Ebony Eyes" is by Bob Welch not Welsh...
  9:45am
Cecile:

RuPaul is now my short-term personal saviour.

That is all.

I am wearing 4.5" platforms today to honor this.
  9:46am
Adrian in London:

You do realise that while you squabble the UK is covered by a cloud of volcanic dust that has grounded all air traffic?! It's Iceland's revenge for us stopping their banks from operating under anti-terrorism legislation. We're all waiting for the sky to go dark right now…
  9:46am
jamesie:

* COUGH COUGH *
  9:47am
seang:

Cecile, you are a diva! :)
  9:49am
Cecile:

a dowdy diva, but some kind of diva-like humanoid, nonetheless.
  9:49am
Cecile:

Miley Cyrus did good voiceovers in Bolt.
  9:51am
J-Mar:

I'm pretty sure that underneath all that makeup, RuPaul is probably kind of dowdy.
  9:51am
NS Andy:

Look out... Irwin Chusid is going to pipe in at any moment...
  9:52am
LizGig:

Ah, precocious adolescents. We have some very talented 11-year old blues guitarists who write their own material. Including songs with lines like 'I want to get over my woman'. Well, I don't know about the rest of the audience, but I raised my eyebrows.
  9:52am
north guinea hills:

Well, we all know Iceland still worships Surtr in hopes that the Ragnarök will occur. I wonder how much the UK economy will lose due to the ash and how much would have come out of the UK's coffers in order to bail out Iceland?
  9:53am
felipe:

great song!
  9:54am
jesse:

great tune love is adrum
  9:54am
Cecile:

he actually is quite elfin for someone who is 6'5". Striking for 50.
He appears as himself quite frequently on his show.
Very natty dresser - he likes the mod-cut suits.
  9:54am
Consuela:

yes, HOTT DAMN
  9:56am
seang:

any lefties out there, Houston has the best guitar shop--Southpaw Guitars--real nice dudes
  9:57am
J-Mar:

It's funny, you don't think of Houston as being a hotbed for left-wingers...
  9:58am
dc pat:

perfect Clash! Watch out Kurt,"left-wing nut job" lyrics coming up...

seang: yeah but are they pricey. I haven't been to a guit shop in years cuz I can't even afford to look at 'em.
  10:00am
Sandy in Houston:

I like Houston. Good galleries & good music.
  10:02am
dc pat:

ooooooohh, cut. off....
  10:06am
listener stu:

Hi Trouble were those Red Wing Blackbirds singing behind you ( or left wing black birds ?)
  10:06am
JcityJensen:

long live the nut jobs
  10:06am
felipe:

YESSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  10:07am
jaypee:

listener stu: HEYOOOOOO!
  10:07am
Cecile:

I thought her video would have been more betterer without the exposition. It was a good song, though.
  10:08am
Dead Corporate Eyes:

Laugh away. I'll join you!
  10:09am
dc pat:

The political spectrum right now is hilarious. Tea-baggers are normal people and the President is a socialist. Give. me. a. break. If the pres is a socialist, than I must be so far out in left field you can't even see me any more.
  10:11am
Cecile:

Do you have any Donny Hathaway, Trouble?
Or "Love Don't Live Here Anymore" by Rose Royce. Or anyone?
  10:12am
Ne-guh-tor:

A nutjob's a nutjob, no matter what the disposition, right? When I call a Repubnub insane I just say, "That fool is insane."
  10:14am
LizGig:

Thank you for Alice!
  10:15am
Dead Corporate Eyes:

fly high above the nutjobs in your Lovely Sky Boat.
  10:16am
Ne-guh-tor:

I got in a scathing debate with an "old" friend about teabaggers on Facebook recently. I shot a thousand holes in his moronic arguments and insults, then found out we are BOTH in the Independent party!
  10:17am
Dead Corporate Eyes:

debates really don't work well for Facebook. You need to sit down over coffee or some other liquid.
  10:17am
wendy del formaggio:

Hot damn, Trouble! Curtis Mayfield got me dancin' in the shower, and now Alice Coltrane is helping me get dressed. Whadda segueway! You da best.
  10:19am
north guinea hills:

ALICE!
  10:21am
dc pat:

tea baggers = nut jobs. But people who consider themselves traditional conservatives (small government, fiscal responsibility, etc), though I don't agree with them mostly, are not nut jobs. Problem is there are very few trad conservatives in the Republicreep party.
  10:21am
Ne-guh-tor:

Dead Corporate Eyes: I like debating on FB sometimes cause the asshole over there can't beat me up. Many of my "old" friends are brawlers ;) Any debate about the philosophy of teabaggers doesn't work for me cause they just don't want to pay taxes to a Democratic administration. Where were they during the heinous Bush years?
  10:22am
annie:

i apply the star-bellied sneeches theory to this whole political madness we have been experiencing.
  10:26am
ffrr:

I thought Victoria Jackson was just acting.
  10:35am
Link Larkin:

Tracy, our skin may be white, but our souls are black,
  10:35am
Cecile:

I love this! This is great.

I have to watch Hairspray at least twice a year.
  10:39am
v k:

Loretta Lynn - her 75th birthday yesterday - perhaps some LL would be prudent
  10:39am
Charcutero:

This Bessie Smith track is sexy
  10:42am
v k:

oops - sorry - was away from desk then - even did "control F" for Loretta (but didn't see it) - i messed up - head down
  10:42am

  10:43am
Ne-guh-tor:

Three way tie!
  10:43am
BSI:

ah, they're right.
but I totally preferred Lidsville.
  10:43am
Ne-guh-tor:

Lidsville!
  10:44am
dale:

the movie was the best! got to see the copter and boat and cycle w/ sidecar that the show didn't. how will dj icepack learn about victor buono or frank gorshin or otto preminger or burgess meredith or....
  10:44am
Cecile:

I've waiting for Bakersfield, PD to come out on DVD.

I liked the Bugaloos - I would draw them all the time.

No, that wasn't me.
  10:44am
monika:

YES! i was looking for the batman tv show to copy julie newmar's costume, and i was so depressed that i couldn't find it anywhere online. it's an absolute travesty, i was really looking forward to reliving the magic of adam west :/
  10:45am
Cecile:

@dale
Or Eartha Kitt
  10:46am
Adrian in London:

Cecile!!! I've got Bakersfield on DVD. I got it off eBay. It's obviously a dodgy copy but it's as good as you remember it.
  10:47am
Cecile:

Excellent, I will have to chase it down.
I had it DVR'd from when Trio ran it years ago, but it....got...erased.
  10:52am
instant conductors:

hey trouble! can you spell that french blog title out again? sounds of supreme interest.
  10:54am
trouble:

  10:57am
guuzbourg:

  10:58am
instant conductors:

jac berrocal seems like an interesting dude
  11:12am
Adrian in London:

On a Mac ø is alt+o, if that helps
  11:13am
danoamtika:

If you have a mac, you can type an ø with option+o.
  11:13am
Carmichael:

Hi Everyone. Trouble, thanks for playing the Clash (even though I missed it)! That's one of my favorite songs of theirs.
  11:21am
trouble:

thanks for the o help everybody. i have a mac at home but we are strictly pcccc here, merci.
  11:24am
BSI:

this live piece is the niceness...
  11:27am
ffrr:

To get Ø on a pc hold ALT+0216 (lower case 0248)
  11:30am
Carmichael:

On my PC, your directions make: â

  11:33am
ffrr:

Sorry Carm, works on mine
  11:37am
Adrian in London:

Hey Trouble, I'm going to email you something that combines poetry and birds. Keep an eye out for it.
  11:37am
seang:

Planet Rock!
  11:37am
Cecile:

I love how open-minded and big-hearted this rap is. Reminds me of how songs used to mix together in the early 80s...
  11:38am
Sean Daily:

Not even close to first comment! Woo hoo!
  11:38am
trouble:

sounds great adrian!
  11:39am
v k:

kudos
  11:39am
Cecile:

someone should play this song to MIchelle Duggar. Just sayin.
  11:39am
Jennique:

Thank you for playing the World's Famous Supreme Team! I think it's ironic that last week you played Malcolm the day before he died (you played Je T'aime Moi Non Plus ) Keep the hits coming!
  11:40am
Pip:

I've got the pill too- it's awesome
  11:40am
dc pat:

Oh no, don't tell me Loretta Lynn is a left wing nut bag...
  11:41am
Cecile:

Far from it DCP...
  11:44am
Cecile:

anti-microbial/bacterial soaps are unnecessary if you do not need to maintain a sterile field in your everyday life And they are a public health hazard - they help breed supergerms.
  11:44am
Sean Daily:

Yes, if the Europeans do it, it must be good!
  11:45am
Sean Daily:

And thank you for that, Cecile. My next point exactly.
  11:46am
Ψ-Ns:

Triclosan is even in toothpaste! Besides what it can do to hurt us directly, bacteria can become immune to its effects, leading to "superbugs" that withstand this and other bacteriacides.
  11:49am
Parq:

Well said, guys. Anti-bacterial soap is just another example of how our entire economy is based on selling things no one actually needs.
  11:50am
Cecile:

Exactly. Soap and warm water take care of 99% of what you need.

I pretty much never allowed it in my house - I knew enough about not taking too many antibiotics to know that anti-bacterial soap is the same thing. I want my Zithromax to still work when I need it!
  11:51am
Sean Daily:

But but but the GERMS! I need to protect myself from... the GERMS!
  11:52am
Cecile:

Just don't listen to their music. ;P
  11:53am
Parq:

Exactly, Sean. Just like you need special shoes to walk at the mall (younger listeners, this was a real product in the 80s), special cleaning fluid just for formica bathroom countertops, etc. etc.
  11:56am
Adrian in London:

If you want to be scared about anti-bacterials listen to Benjamen Walker's TMI from this week. I'm now terrified of my socks. You should listen to it anyway, it's a great show.
  11:57am
Carmichael:

I need a SlapChop. Vince, are you listening?
  11:59am
Cecile:

linguini, martini, bikini
  12:00pm
Sean Daily:

Bottom line: we're all gonna die, SOMETHING'S gonna kill ya, save your money and enjoy your banana split.
