Listener comments!
	🚂 12:00pm Carmichael: Choo choo!!
	🚂 12:01pm Handy Haversack: Greetings, David and all the Voyageurs! I brought my pack and my paddle. Let's go!
	🚂 12:01pm Handy Haversack: Oh, we're taking a train? Well, I can adapt. To the bar car!
	12:01pm Sylvia (France-NYC): Hello David!
	12:01pm David (in London): Good afternoon travel-time groovers. One first class return, with added oysters rockefeller please David.
	🚂 12:02pm Threemoons: Greets, crew!
	🚂 12:03pm YETI BOB: Chilly greetings from Chicago where it's been snowing for 3 days straight now
	12:03pm listener Rey: Oysters? This is one fancy subway. I'd better turn down my boombox.
	🚂 12:03pm Yvang: Hello from unusually snowy Brittany (the Moscow cold,I've been told) !
	12:04pm David Dichelle: Greetings Carmichael, Handy, Sylvia, David, Threemoons, Yeti Bob, Rey, Yvang!
	12:04pm David Dichelle: Snow and oysters for everyone at the bar!
	🚂 12:04pm Yvang: I am near both!
	12:04pm doctorjazz: Hi David!
	12:05pm David Dichelle: Hey there Dr. J!
	🚂 12:05pm Yvang: Except the bars are closed... sob!
	12:05pm Hubig Pie: I'm a little skeptical about the oysters they serve on the subway
	12:06pm David Dichelle: Hey Hubig, skepticism is often a healthy thing.
	🚂 12:06pm Yvang: If they are blue and a cult don't eat them!
	12:06pm David (in London): Handy, Sylvia, Carmichael, Count Yeti Bob, Threemoons, Hubig et al. Aloha to you all. Rey, yes. I can lend you a dinner jacket for the dining car if you need one.
	🚂 12:06pm YETI BOB: @Hubig: There was that famous oyster bar in Grand Central Station
	🚂 12:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This Gittarist's vibrato reminds me a little of myself - 'cept he's more Pro in every way of course...
	🚂 12:07pm Handy Haversack: Good point, Yvang -- you'd crack a tooth on all that ROCK! Subway oysters are just what we call rat testicles here in the big city.
	12:08pm Hubig Pie: Damn, now I gots a hankerin for 'ersters
	12:08pm melinda: howdy friends!
	🚂 12:08pm YETI BOB: @Yvang: Especially if they have ümläüts on 'em!
	12:09pm David Dichelle: Ahoy there Revolution Rabbit and Melinda!
	12:09pm David (in London): Rev Rabbit, Melinda, hi.
	12:10pm Hubig Pie: David, cheers Guv'nuh
	🚂 12:10pm Yvang: @Yeti Bob : yes, can cause diaeresis!
	🚂 12:11pm Handy Haversack: Which of those words means funk? <--- Because one of 'em must! Hey there, David (iL), everyone!
	12:12pm melinda: Haha, I so loved the Grease soundtrack when I was little.
	🚂 12:12pm chresti: Hi David and continentals! Looks like you changed the snowy scene, David, nice!
	12:13pm David Dichelle: Hello Chresti - thanks, the picture is from about four hours ago in fact.
	12:13pm David (in London): Hey Chresti.
	🚂 12:14pm WR: hi all y'all silly Continental Travelers. thanks to each and every one of you for it. and thanks to combination conductor and driver and engineer David for transporting us. i start with thanks because work will soon snatch me away.
	🚂 12:14pm YETI BOB: @Yvang - LÖL!!!
	12:15pm Hubig Pie: That pic looks positively balmy. I currently residing within the Arctic circle
	12:17pm Hubig Pie: Tunisia dammit. That is all
	12:18pm David (in London): I'm going for Switzerland. Hey WR.
	🚂 12:19pm chris in the redwoods: hi, David and riders. i miss living in a place with a snowy winter; thanks for that pic, David.
	🚂 12:19pm Yvang: I learnt that we are only allowed 20 comments per show/playlist chat!
	🚂 12:20pm Handy Haversack: Silly Sisters! Starting out strong! I shall stick with the Gambia. Maybe it's warm there.
	🚂 12:20pm Yvang: or 50?
	🚂 12:21pm WR: I'm saving up my frequent commentor points up for a rant 🤪 it was most surprising to find out that there is an official maximum allowed number of comments per show, enforced at host discretion i assume.
	12:21pm David Dichelle: Thank you, WR, before work happens - and happy to share, Chris!
	12:21pm northguineahills: @Hugig Pie: It was 29C/84C where I reside yesterday afternoon.... (I miss the cold)
	🚂 12:21pm Yvang: Sweden this week?
	12:21pm northguineahills: 84F.....
	🚂 12:22pm chresti: Hi David in London.
	12:22pm David Dichelle: Please send some of that over here, NGH - and everywhere else as well!
	12:22pm David (in London): I take the 20 post limit as 'suggested' rather than a hard stop...
	🚂 12:22pm Bas NL: Hi David! Weather challenged travelers!
	🚂 12:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: WR : Host's discretion would make total sense I think. A glum 24degreesF in NewHampshuh...
	12:24pm David Dichelle: WR: Yes, I was surprised by that as well, I suppose it isn't necessary to enforce that all that often.
	12:24pm David (in London): Hey Bas. Damn, Finbar Furey is a fine name.
	12:24pm northguineahills: @Handy: The borders of The Gambia were determined by the British and the French (Gambia and Senegal) by treaty by as far as the British navy were able to fire a cannon from the Gambia River.
	12:24pm Hubig Pie: NGH, today's high is progged -7 F. I think I getting close to me comment limit
	12:24pm David Dichelle: Hey there Bas, enough snow in your part of the woods?
	🚂 12:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Host's discretion in most things makes sense I reckon...
	12:26pm northguineahills: I want -7F (actually, the coldest in NYC I experienced was -8, in WV, was -26)
	12:26pm David (in London): It's a fine British tradition which I for one keep alive ngh. All my geographic and travel decisions are based around how far I can fire my cannon.
	🚂 12:26pm Handy Haversack: We were hoping to get out of town next week when Kate has a break from teaching. But it's snowing every other day, and in the end we decided the driving was going to be too treacherous. It's a small disappointment in the wider context, but it sure feels frustrating. Any other winter, I would have been happy to see all this snow. But this time around, it just starts to seem personal. Who's a guy gotta propitiate around heeyuh?! ngh, yeah! I'm a sucker for an origin story.
	12:27pm Sem: Hello, David, and all aboard. Yes, snow in profusion outside my windows as well.
	12:27pm northguineahills: @David: fire cannon, find cannon ball, fire again, (usually the imperial British way)
	🚂 12:27pm YETI BOB: We had -17F in Chicago a few winters ago. On the same day Mars rover reported -14F.
	12:28pm David Dichelle: Greetings, Sem!
	🚂 12:28pm Bas NL: Nice and frosty here too David! Had a good slippery slide back home just now.
	🚂 12:28pm YETI BOB: It's a balmy +20F here today
	🚂 12:29pm Handy Haversack: Ice in the canals, Bas?
	12:29pm David Dichelle: Careful out there, Bas and everyone!
	🚂 12:29pm Bas NL: Astrid Nijgh! That takes me back..
	12:30pm northguineahills: last week gasp, it got down below 40F/3C 5 days in a week. (I believe it got down to 36/2C one night). Oddly an aberration meteorologically-wise down here.
	🚂 12:30pm chresti: WR @12:21, yes, host discretion.
	12:31pm northguineahills: Swamp German (Dutch) folk!
	12:33pm northguineahills: (Bas would get that joke, I hear it from my German friends [oxymoron, I know, Deutsch, joke)
	🚂 12:33pm YETI BOB: My guess for this week - chosen randomly - Kuwait!
	🚂 12:34pm Bas NL: Safe and sound on De Razende Bol. It's a wandering isle in the Marsdiep, North Sea. (Loosely translates as The Raging Sphere.)
	🚂 12:34pm Carmichael: BTW, my guess this week is Switzerland.
	🚂 12:35pm chresti: Mongolia, still.
	🚂 12:36pm YETI BOB: I know nothing of Kuwaiti music but according to WP:, "Kuwait is the birthplace of various popular musical genres, such as sawt. Traditional Kuwaiti music is a reflection of the country's seafaring heritage, which is known for genres such as fijiri. Kuwait pioneered contemporary Khaliji music. Kuwaitis were the first commercial recording artists in the Gulf region. The first known Kuwaiti recordings were made between 1912 and 1915."
	🚂 12:36pm Bas NL: I'll stick with Uruguay.
	🚂 12:36pm Handy Haversack: I picture your and David's random scripts sort of double-helixing around each other in the realm of pure geographic probability, Yeti. Whereas I'm just a doggedly flat curve waiting to be intersected. My next band: The Cannon Shot Without Parabola
	12:36pm Sem: Laos.
	12:40pm David Dichelle: Well put, Handy - and it is true that we have yet to be randomly sent to the Middle East. I suppose Eritrea was the closest so far.
	12:41pm David Dichelle: And thanks Bas, for the explanation of Razende Bol, which did in fact puzzle me.
	🚂 12:42pm Michael 98145: well, hello
	12:42pm David Dichelle: Hello, Michael!
	🚂 12:43pm Bas NL: My guess is it is often visited by UFOs. ;)
	12:43pm David Dichelle: The Dutch Area 51?
	🚂 12:44pm Bas NL: Hah yes! What IS in a name.
	12:45pm David (in London): Kuwait is a nice choice Yeti Bob. I don't know why, it just is.
	🚂 12:45pm Michael 98145: Kuwait probably has tasty cuisine
	12:46pm northguineahills: Spark, singular, so not to be confused w/ Sparks.... I know nothing of Kuwaiti music (I know quite a bit of the music of the surrounding region). I believe today, 2/3rds of the population aren't citizens (imported labor).
	12:50pm northguineahills: can we get Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland)?. I actually have a record of their folk music that spans from the 1910s to 1960s.....
	12:51pm Cmurtha: Been too long since I got on the subway. Hello everyone!
	12:51pm David Dichelle: We sure can, NGH, as soon as random.org gives me the green light. Only 210 left on the list...
	12:51pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Cmurtha!
	12:54pm Hubig Pie: I have a 1/210 chance this train stops in Tunisia, ammiright?
	12:54pm Phillippe Bastille: Hi. I'm guessing Easter Island. Bye again, Zoom is calling...
	🚂 12:54pm Michael 98145: 🙄 the bad bride
	🚂 12:54pm Handy Haversack: Is this the first time two people have guessed the same place? I trust David and Carmichael to stay neutral over Switzerland, though.
	12:55pm David Dichelle: Aloha, Phillippe!
	12:56pm northguineahills: @Phillippe: I've been asking for Rapa Nui for months...
	12:57pm David (in London): Phillippe, Semulator, Cmurtha.
	12:58pm Cmurtha: Howdy David.
	1:00pm Hubig Pie: Let us play the game- identify that bagpipe
	🚂 1:00pm YETI BOB: @Handy - you inspired me to do some probability calculations. Since the pool of remaining countries shrinks every time we play, the odds of choosing correctly from the remaining ones goes up. On the last week, if we're all still here in 4 years, we're guaranteed to guess correctly
	🚂 1:00pm Yvang: QUEBEC-BRETAGNE-IRLANDE STRONG!
	🚂 1:01pm Yvang: Not my random road guess, just related to Coeff 4...
	🚂 1:01pm Bas NL: Had me thinking of beer.. but that's Coreff.
	1:02pm David Dichelle: Yvang: Indeed!
	🚂 1:03pm Handy Haversack: Nice, Yvang! Yeti Bob, the still point at the center of the turning world! 2025!
	🚂 1:03pm YETI BOB: so over the course of 249 shows (length of ISO-3166 list) the expected number of correct guesses per player is ∑(1/n) 1≤n≤249 which comes out to 6.09. So we can expect to be right 6 times if we play long enough.
	🚂 1:03pm Michael 98145: "The song of the dogs" ?
	🚂 1:04pm Yvang: Oh yes Coreff is a famous breton beer... I've heard about a breton Vodka named Roscoff (from the russian sounding city name...breton humour)
	🚂 1:05pm Bas NL: @YB That is if we don't change our guess to the wrong country each time.. :(
	1:05pm David Dichelle: Michael, that's the correct translation of Cân y cŵn.
	1:06pm northguineahills: Also, waiting for Wallis & Fatuna to get their turn...
	🚂 1:07pm YETI BOB: @Bas: You'd have to deliberately choose countries that had already been chosen, which would be silly, since there's a list here: www.wfmu.org...
	🚂 1:08pm Yvang: I hand to look up if Bancs Publics by Georges Brassens had been played on wfmu before and ...nope!
	🚂 1:08pm Handy Haversack: I feel like by the fourth time the Gambia comes up, I'm going to start feeling like I'm cheating.
	🚂 1:08pm YETI BOB: That would be like Handy sticking with Gambia after the inevitable day that we go there. After the horizontal line is intersected, time to pick a new horizonatal line, or else that's just obstinacy
	1:09pm doctorjazz: Purty (the Yael Naim)!
	🚂 1:09pm Handy Haversack: Just Obstinacy: touring with the Quease, 2022!
	🚂 1:10pm YETI BOB: oops I missed an opportunity to type the Gambia!
	🚂 1:10pm Bas NL: @YB True. (I should remember my guesses better..)
	🚂 1:11pm YETI BOB: @Bas: You just have to look at the list of countries we've already visited, and not pick any of those, and you'll be a winner, eventually!
	1:13pm David (in London): Handy, we'd better start getting the merch ready now.
	🚂 1:14pm Bas NL: @YB Yes! That will work!
	🚂 1:16pm Handy Haversack: David, for the T-shirt: "Music to believe impossible things to."
	1:18pm northguineahills: @yeti:should it be ∑(1/n-1) 1≤n≤249 (my math is rusty).....trying to remember sets and iterations....
	1:18pm David Dichelle: Yvang @1:08, that is kind of surprising!
	1:18pm JOhn delray: nouvel écouteur. beau programme.
	🚂 1:18pm YETI BOB: ngh: no don't go dividing by zero my friend
	1:20pm David Dichelle: Merci et bienvenue, John Delray!
	🚂 1:20pm Yvang: @David: But I am pretty sure another very well known cover in spanish or portuguese has been played...by Trouble?
	🚂 1:21pm Handy Haversack: I'm reading Ted Chiang, YB, so I know what that might lead to: heartbreak.
	1:22pm David Dichelle: Yvang: I guess we'll have to put the original out there sometime as well...
	🚂 1:23pm YETI BOB: @ngh: At each step you are picking from a set of N, so the probability is just 1/N, where N starts at 249 and goes down to 1 for the last round. You could write 249≥n≥1 but it's more customary to write the limits in the other direction.
	🚂 1:23pm βrian: I met Ali Farka Toure in Detroit once. That was a fun evening.
	1:26pm David Dichelle: Sure sounds like it, βrian!
	1:27pm Hubig Pie: I've scored free tickets to 2 shows in me entire lifetime, one was for the Decemberists and the other was for Ali Farka Toure
	🚂 1:29pm βrian: I expect it was worth it, Hubig Pie!
	1:30pm Hubig Pie: Brian , they were both great
	🚂 1:32pm Yvang: @David : I 've found the cover of this Brassens song I was thinking of : it's not in spanish but in french creole "Doudou ban foyal" by Sam Alpha .
	1:35pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Yvang, sounds intriguing!
	🚂 1:42pm Bas NL: What a beautiful and complex flute song!
	1:46pm David Dichelle: Yes, an "Oriental Rhapsody for Recorder Orchestra", composed by Sören Sieg.
	🚂 1:46pm chris in the redwoods: this Soap Kills cut is dope.
	🚂 1:47pm redkayak: Hello everyone! Late arrival today :)
	1:47pm David Dichelle: Ahoy there, RK!
	🚂 1:47pm Bas NL: Noted. As well as this track by Soap Kills.. my mother's name is Fen and i'm sure she'd love this!
	🚂 1:47pm Michael 98145: yes. i like tjjis.
	1:47pm Sem: Yes, agree w/ chris^.
	🚂 1:48pm redkayak: @David - Ahoy, sir! Long time no see. Happy to be here - despite the icebergs!
	🚂 1:49pm Carmichael: Sheez, finally got off of friggin' Skype. Hope you didn't play anything good.
	1:51pm David Dichelle: RK: Great to see you - and yes, those riverways looked a bit treacherous if not frozen over today.
	1:51pm David (in London): Hey Carmichael. Wow, we're proper rocking out here.
	🚂 1:52pm redkayak: @David - Nice picture by the way. Snowy here too. Winter decided to make February the month to throw his weight around!

	1:55pm coelacanth∅: hey Sem
	🚂 1:56pm Handy Haversack: Yo, coela! Just under the wire!
	1:57pm David (in London): Coela, bringing it on home.
	🚂 1:58pm chris in the redwoods: reading all your guesses, folks, gets me super excited to hear the music. i guess that means i'm in the right place. :)
	1:58pm coelacanth∅: hey Handy & David yeah going mainstream with my guess. could happen.
	1:59pm Phillippe Bastille: Yay, phone calls are done for the day! Time for proper hellos: Hi Handy, DiL, βrian, Hubig, Carmichael, Yeti Bob, NGH, and the dude running this train
	1:59pm Phillippe Bastille: Oh, and coel!
	🚂 1:59pm Yvang: Eh eh!
	🚂 1:59pm Bas NL: Great guessing Yvang!
	1:59pm Stanley: Bulgaria! Am I too late?
	2:00pm David (in London): Yeah, bullseye there, nice work Yvang. rips up betting slip with a grimace
	2:01pm David (in London): Stanley, late but celebrated.
	2:01pm Stanley: Oh, I was. Hi Davids, everyone!
	2:01pm coelacanth∅: hey chris. next week i'm guessing The Redwoods. hey Phillippe nice work Yvang!
	2:01pm Stanley: But not too late for some Swedish action.
	2:02pm David Dichelle: Congrats, Yvang!
	2:02pm David Dichelle: And greetings, Stanley!
	2:02pm Sem: You are curiously orange, Stanley.
	🚂 2:02pm Michael 98145: Swedish blues
	2:02pm Funky16Corners: Hey David!
	🚂 2:03pm Yvang: Thanks, radio friends!
	2:03pm David Dichelle: And salutations, Coel!
	2:03pm David Dichelle: And hey there, Larry!
	2:03pm Stanley: Hi Sem. Yes, it's a new look.
	2:04pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Redkayak, photo was in fact from earlier today (which isn't always the case).
	2:05pm Phillippe Bastille: This reminds I'm a bit behind on deep muscle massages...
	🚂 2:05pm Michael 98145: Skål
	2:06pm Sem: re: some Swedish action. Your comment reminded me of this: en.wikipedia.org...
	2:06pm coelacanth∅: skål Michael...and i will always think of that as danish
	🚂 2:08pm Handy Haversack: Nice one, Yvang!
	🚂 2:09pm Carmichael: My favorite Swedish band is Urban Turban.
	2:09pm Phillippe Bastille: @Sem I remember that coming out. I was 10 at the time and rather intrigued. Never saw it when I was old enough, though
	2:09pm Hubig Pie: Am soo looking forward to next week when I'll have a 1 in 209 chance that this train stops in Tunisia
	2:10pm Stanley: I see Sem. I am also a fan of pubic hair and buttocks. (Moderators, can I say that?)
	🚂 2:10pm Handy Haversack: Shrink that N!
	🚂 2:11pm dutchtheo: Hej David!, Heja Yvang och tunnelbana pendlare
	2:12pm Sem: Oh, Stanley. Phillippe: was also young when that film made its boat-rocking arrival here in the don't rock the boat land.
	2:12pm David Dichelle: Heja, DT!
	2:13pm David (in London): Does this give you an excuse to play some Pärson Sound David?
	🚂 2:13pm Threemoons: Loving this Nordic folk rip!
	🚂 2:14pm Yvang: Hi dutchtheo!
	2:15pm coelacanth∅: Stanley, conversely, rex reed preferred prepubescent girls - no pubic hair.
	🚂 2:15pm Yvang: Some Donovanless Hurdy-Gurdy...
	🚂 2:16pm Bas NL: Hurdy-gurdy's are cool!
	2:18pm David (in London): Frost Mats is my new pseudonym.
	🚂 2:18pm redkayak: @David - Wonderful set....
	2:19pm David Dichelle: Thanks RK! Changing gears soon, but not quite yet...
	🚂 2:19pm Michael 98145: Ten million Poles?
	2:19pm David Dichelle: Falling behind on comments, sorry if I missed any...
	2:19pm Stanley: eeks, coela. reminds me I have just signed up on the British Film Institute player for a six week free trial! Last night I watched the whole of Kurasawa's Ran. I am curious as to what else there is. Oh wait, Thursday is a bumper FMU night. (So is Friday)
	🚂 2:19pm Threemoons: Got any Wardruna in the crates?
	2:20pm David Dichelle: Wardruna is Norwegian, but I almost played them earlier in the show, funnily enough.
	2:20pm David (in London): Yeah, Stanley, no time for any of that. You're in this till bedtime now.
	🚂 2:21pm redkayak: @David - You have permission to stay in this gear, lol...
	2:21pm David Dichelle: The gears won't change that abruptly, I hope.
	2:22pm Stanley: You are absolutely correct, David. The weekend is usually a better time for films.
	2:24pm David Dichelle: Next song(s) will be in the Sami language(s).
	2:25pm Funky16Corners: As a semi-Swede, I am digging these sounds!
	🚂 2:25pm βrian: Why, I just had a sami. Roast turkey on sourdough with cheddar, banana peppers, and mayo.
	🚂 2:25pm Threemoons: @David thank you! :)
	2:25pm David Dichelle: Glad you're enjoying it, Larry!
	🚂 2:27pm Threemoons: What about Garmarna? I forget if they are Swedish or Norwegian...
	2:27pm Funky16Corners: There’s a Fairport vibe to some of this.
	🚂 2:27pm Handy Haversack: This is in Sami? the "Rosenbergs Sjua"?
	2:28pm coelacanth∅: Stanley yes i suppose my comment was a bit rash! just that i put such film critics on the same bottom-feeder level as most well-known music critics. (and his comment about pubic hair deserved some sort of hateful acknowledgement)
	2:29pm Stanley: Nice selection of Swedish music, (so far, until we hit the Death Metal)
	2:29pm David Dichelle: Rijddár is the first of three Sami tracks.
	🚂 2:29pm Threemoons: Nice....
	🚂 2:30pm βrian: There's cured salmon with mustard-dill sauce on the buffet. Eat up.
	2:30pm David Dichelle: 3M: Gamarna are in fact Swedish. Almost played them just before as well!
	2:30pm coelacanth∅: Larry, as a person that prefers to drive swedish automobiles i'm digging also!
	🚂 2:30pm Yvang: Metal or Abba?
	2:30pm David Dichelle: Yvang, that is the question!
	2:30pm David (in London): Ands some brännvin to wash it down with.
	2:31pm Stanley: You could say a veritable Smörgåsbord
	2:31pm David Dichelle: And thanks, Stanley, we shall see...
	🚂 2:32pm βrian: I bought a Volvo wagon because I wanted to schlep materials from the lumber yard.
	🚂 2:33pm Threemoons: I love Gamarna!
	2:33pm David Dichelle: 3M: I'll try to get them in next week :)
	🚂 2:36pm Handy Haversack: Ah, OK, now we're in Sami land. βrian, my friend always makes that salmon as the appetizer on Burns Night. And then, of course, the neeps are made of a swede!
	2:36pm coelacanth∅: volvos are good for that. good for living/sleeping in as well. with the back seats down the bed is 6'1" long. (longer with the front seats pushed forward)
	2:36pm David Dichelle: 3M: Or who knows...
	🚂 2:36pm Michael 98145: like what we're hearing here
	🚂 2:37pm βrian: 5 full sheets of plywood on the roof. It's a lumbering beast, for sure.
	2:40pm headcleaner: Fixing myself a plate of hummus w/ carrot-rye bread from a Swedish bakery I was fortunate to be able to visit here in NYC yesterday (on one of my few necessary subway trips), as we speak
	2:40pm David Dichelle: This one is in Finnish.
	2:40pm coelacanth∅: and the 5-speed transmissions can be driven hard (as long as it's also correctly)... something i've had to unlearn as i'm driving an old audi now. i need to be gentler on it.
	2:41pm David Dichelle: Guten Appetit, Headcleaner!
	🚂 2:41pm Handy Haversack: Though I heard "Suomi" in the first line!
	2:41pm coelacanth∅: my mind is stuck on that salmon.
	🚂 2:41pm Handy Haversack: *Thought^ Der.
	🚂 2:42pm Handy Haversack: On pumpernickel, coela. Though I skip the fish and have just the sauce and the bread.
	2:43pm David Dichelle: Handy, that sure gives it away. It's the Stockholm-based Månskensorkestern and it was for a Swedish-Finnish documentary film.
	🚂 2:43pm Michael 98145: I know she's Danish, but i've become quite a fan of Amalie Bruun (Myrkur).
	🚂 2:44pm Brian in UK: Hello David, been running to keep up with the day.
	2:45pm David Dichelle: Good evening, Brian, hope it was a good one!
	2:45pm Rick from SC: Wow, all I did was change streams and I ended up in Sweden. Not that I'm complaining.
	🚂 2:45pm Michael 98145: "Open yer window"
	🚂 2:45pm Bas NL: Great cow bell.
	🚂 2:46pm Brian in UK: Knowing me, Brian Knowing you, David Ahaaaa
	2:46pm David Dichelle: Welcome, Rick!
	2:46pm Stanley: This Lisa Ekdahl is excellent
	2:46pm Phillippe Bastille: I owned a Saab for several months. We spelled it Sob due to the frequency it broke down. The shortest distance it went without breaking down was about 15 feet (no exaggeration -- fixed a tire in the driveway, water pump went up when I put it in the garage)
	🚂 2:48pm Handy Haversack: Did the Lisa Ekdahl song sound a little like James's "Laid"? Or I guess other way round.
	2:48pm Phillippe Bastille: Downy woodpecker at the feeder today, Handy. All the snow slush blew into the cove so no ducks
	2:50pm melinda: The tunes today have been a nice backdrop for puttering and preparing for arrival of new washer and dryer, thanks!
	🚂 2:50pm Yvang: I'd say swedish music is more joyous than swedish cinema.
	🚂 2:50pm Threemoons: Estonian on the 2013 track?
	🚂 2:50pm Bas NL: YES!
	2:50pm coelacanth∅: Handy i'd like that too. most days. i eat fish about once/week, and i crave it if i don't have that or eggs for over a week, or maybe 10 days. i think my body really needs the protein sometimes
	🚂 2:50pm Brian in UK: Yipeeee.
	2:50pm Rick from SC: @Phillippe, I also saw a downy woodpecker this AM on my backyard feeder
	🚂 2:50pm βrian: Oh, my. My stream just bounced to another stream ...
	🚂 2:51pm Threemoons: ABBA! dances at desk
	2:51pm headcleaner: I think I know this band
	🚂 2:51pm Yvang: What? ABBA in swedish????
	🚂 2:51pm Handy Haversack: Ah, nice. We finally saw a cardinal again out back yesterday. coela, I think I average about 1.4 eggs a day!
	2:52pm Stanley: Great stuff
	🚂 2:52pm Yvang: My swedish guess was in fact a wish... beautifully fullfilled! Thanks, David!
	🚂 2:53pm Michael 98145: Finally facing my Waterloo
	🚂 2:53pm YETI BOB: phew, meetings ar over, i get back in time to enjoy some of this fine Swedish music. (any chance we'll here Dungen? - I guess not, it's over!)
	2:53pm coelacanth∅: i used to love waterloo! still the only abba song i like
	🚂 2:53pm Bas NL: Ahhh... No! Not the final stop already?! Great set!!
	2:53pm David (in London): Thanks for a great show again today David. Later groovers.
	🚂 2:53pm YETI BOB: Yvang! You guessed correctly! Amazing! What are the odds? (Oh, 1/220, right)
	🚂 2:54pm Handy Haversack: This trip is always over just as it seems like it's getting going! Thanks, David! What a great ride. I'd do it all again. Be well, Voyageurs. And remember, let's never talk about the barring of the door!
	2:54pm Sem: Thanks, David. Great fun today, as always. See you and all next time, for more ABBA if possible. waves goodbye
	2:54pm Stanley: Splendid, thanks David. See ya, Sem, all.
	2:55pm coelacanth∅: Phillippe @246 that's crazy! i was with someone who had an old(ish) saab 900 and it was great! there was some electrical weirdness that i fixed in a matter of an hour or 2. (mostly grounding issues, as usual)
	🚂 2:55pm Michael 98145: thanks again!
	🚂 2:55pm chris in the redwoods: thanks, David, that was great. :)
	🚂 2:55pm Bas NL: Thanks David! Great show!
	2:57pm Phillippe Bastille: Thanks David
	2:57pm coelacanth∅: this person (who owned the old saab, and who taught me "skål") learned english with her sister by listening to abba records
	🚂 2:58pm chresti: Thanks David!
	🚂 2:58pm Handy Haversack: Very proud we were all to mature to make a "Down at Fågel Roc" joke -- until now!
	🚂 2:59pm dutchtheo: Tak, David! Skål!
	2:59pm coelacanth∅: Thanks David! great program, what i heard; great swedish set!
	3:00pm Phillippe Bastille: @coel it was a 95. GM had gotten their fingers in it and killed it. I loved the ride, the look, everything. Lost an alternator, water pump, an then the rest of the motor over the course of 3 months. $6k down the drain.
	3:00pm David Dichelle: Thanks, everyone!
	🚂 10:16pm WR: hi David, catching up from the archive, Meir Ariel doing Kotsim 1, it sounds to me just like "You're Dead" by Norma Tanega. curious.
	8:07am David Dichelle: Good catch, WR, there is a striking similarity - although I keep thinking it reminds me of something else as well, but I still can't put my finger on it.

	🚂 12:03pm YETI BOB: Chilly greetings from Chicago where it's been snowing for 3 days straight now
	12:03pm listener Rey: Oysters? This is one fancy subway. I'd better turn down my boombox.
	🚂 12:03pm Yvang: Hello from unusually snowy Brittany (the Moscow cold,I've been told) !
	12:04pm David Dichelle: Greetings Carmichael, Handy, Sylvia, David, Threemoons, Yeti Bob, Rey, Yvang!
	12:04pm David Dichelle: Snow and oysters for everyone at the bar!
	🚂 12:04pm Yvang: I am near both!
	12:04pm doctorjazz: Hi David!
	12:05pm David Dichelle: Hey there Dr. J!
	🚂 12:05pm Yvang: Except the bars are closed... sob!
	12:05pm Hubig Pie: I'm a little skeptical about the oysters they serve on the subway
	12:06pm David Dichelle: Hey Hubig, skepticism is often a healthy thing.
	🚂 12:06pm Yvang: If they are blue and a cult don't eat them!
	12:06pm David (in London): Handy, Sylvia, Carmichael, Count Yeti Bob, Threemoons, Hubig et al. Aloha to you all. Rey, yes. I can lend you a dinner jacket for the dining car if you need one.
	🚂 12:06pm YETI BOB: @Hubig: There was that famous oyster bar in Grand Central Station
	🚂 12:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This Gittarist's vibrato reminds me a little of myself - 'cept he's more Pro in every way of course...
	🚂 12:07pm Handy Haversack: Good point, Yvang -- you'd crack a tooth on all that ROCK! Subway oysters are just what we call rat testicles here in the big city.
	12:08pm Hubig Pie: Damn, now I gots a hankerin for 'ersters
	12:08pm melinda: howdy friends!
	🚂 12:08pm YETI BOB: @Yvang: Especially if they have ümläüts on 'em!
	12:09pm David Dichelle: Ahoy there Revolution Rabbit and Melinda!
	12:09pm David (in London): Rev Rabbit, Melinda, hi.
	12:10pm Hubig Pie: David, cheers Guv'nuh
	🚂 12:10pm Yvang: @Yeti Bob : yes, can cause diaeresis!
	🚂 12:11pm Handy Haversack: Which of those words means funk? <--- Because one of 'em must! Hey there, David (iL), everyone!
	12:12pm melinda: Haha, I so loved the Grease soundtrack when I was little.
	🚂 12:12pm chresti: Hi David and continentals! Looks like you changed the snowy scene, David, nice!
	12:13pm David Dichelle: Hello Chresti - thanks, the picture is from about four hours ago in fact.
	12:13pm David (in London): Hey Chresti.
	🚂 12:14pm WR: hi all y'all silly Continental Travelers. thanks to each and every one of you for it. and thanks to combination conductor and driver and engineer David for transporting us. i start with thanks because work will soon snatch me away.
	🚂 12:14pm YETI BOB: @Yvang - LÖL!!!
	12:15pm Hubig Pie: That pic looks positively balmy. I currently residing within the Arctic circle
	12:17pm Hubig Pie: Tunisia dammit. That is all
	12:18pm David (in London): I'm going for Switzerland. Hey WR.
	🚂 12:19pm chris in the redwoods: hi, David and riders. i miss living in a place with a snowy winter; thanks for that pic, David.
	🚂 12:19pm Yvang: I learnt that we are only allowed 20 comments per show/playlist chat!
	🚂 12:20pm Handy Haversack: Silly Sisters! Starting out strong! I shall stick with the Gambia. Maybe it's warm there.
	🚂 12:20pm Yvang: or 50?
	🚂 12:21pm WR: I'm saving up my frequent commentor points up for a rant 🤪 it was most surprising to find out that there is an official maximum allowed number of comments per show, enforced at host discretion i assume.
	12:21pm David Dichelle: Thank you, WR, before work happens - and happy to share, Chris!
	12:21pm northguineahills: @Hugig Pie: It was 29C/84C where I reside yesterday afternoon.... (I miss the cold)
	🚂 12:21pm Yvang: Sweden this week?
	12:21pm northguineahills: 84F.....
	🚂 12:22pm chresti: Hi David in London.
	12:22pm David Dichelle: Please send some of that over here, NGH - and everywhere else as well!
	12:22pm David (in London): I take the 20 post limit as 'suggested' rather than a hard stop...
	🚂 12:22pm Bas NL: Hi David! Weather challenged travelers!
	🚂 12:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: WR : Host's discretion would make total sense I think. A glum 24degreesF in NewHampshuh...
	12:24pm David Dichelle: WR: Yes, I was surprised by that as well, I suppose it isn't necessary to enforce that all that often.
	12:24pm David (in London): Hey Bas. Damn, Finbar Furey is a fine name.
	12:24pm northguineahills: @Handy: The borders of The Gambia were determined by the British and the French (Gambia and Senegal) by treaty by as far as the British navy were able to fire a cannon from the Gambia River.
	12:24pm Hubig Pie: NGH, today's high is progged -7 F. I think I getting close to me comment limit
	12:24pm David Dichelle: Hey there Bas, enough snow in your part of the woods?
	🚂 12:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Host's discretion in most things makes sense I reckon...
	12:26pm northguineahills: I want -7F (actually, the coldest in NYC I experienced was -8, in WV, was -26)
	12:26pm David (in London): It's a fine British tradition which I for one keep alive ngh. All my geographic and travel decisions are based around how far I can fire my cannon.
	🚂 12:26pm Handy Haversack: We were hoping to get out of town next week when Kate has a break from teaching. But it's snowing every other day, and in the end we decided the driving was going to be too treacherous. It's a small disappointment in the wider context, but it sure feels frustrating. Any other winter, I would have been happy to see all this snow. But this time around, it just starts to seem personal. Who's a guy gotta propitiate around heeyuh?! ngh, yeah! I'm a sucker for an origin story.
	12:27pm Sem: Hello, David, and all aboard. Yes, snow in profusion outside my windows as well.
	12:27pm northguineahills: @David: fire cannon, find cannon ball, fire again, (usually the imperial British way)
	🚂 12:27pm YETI BOB: We had -17F in Chicago a few winters ago. On the same day Mars rover reported -14F.
	12:28pm David Dichelle: Greetings, Sem!
	🚂 12:28pm Bas NL: Nice and frosty here too David! Had a good slippery slide back home just now.
	🚂 12:28pm YETI BOB: It's a balmy +20F here today
	🚂 12:29pm Handy Haversack: Ice in the canals, Bas?
	12:29pm David Dichelle: Careful out there, Bas and everyone!
	🚂 12:29pm Bas NL: Astrid Nijgh! That takes me back..
	12:30pm northguineahills: last week gasp, it got down below 40F/3C 5 days in a week. (I believe it got down to 36/2C one night). Oddly an aberration meteorologically-wise down here.
	🚂 12:30pm chresti: WR @12:21, yes, host discretion.
	12:31pm northguineahills: Swamp German (Dutch) folk!
	12:33pm northguineahills: (Bas would get that joke, I hear it from my German friends [oxymoron, I know, Deutsch, joke)
	🚂 12:33pm YETI BOB: My guess for this week - chosen randomly - Kuwait!
	🚂 12:34pm Bas NL: Safe and sound on De Razende Bol. It's a wandering isle in the Marsdiep, North Sea. (Loosely translates as The Raging Sphere.)
	🚂 12:34pm Carmichael: BTW, my guess this week is Switzerland.
	🚂 12:35pm chresti: Mongolia, still.
	🚂 12:36pm YETI BOB: I know nothing of Kuwaiti music but according to WP:, "Kuwait is the birthplace of various popular musical genres, such as sawt. Traditional Kuwaiti music is a reflection of the country's seafaring heritage, which is known for genres such as fijiri. Kuwait pioneered contemporary Khaliji music. Kuwaitis were the first commercial recording artists in the Gulf region. The first known Kuwaiti recordings were made between 1912 and 1915."
	🚂 12:36pm Bas NL: I'll stick with Uruguay.
	🚂 12:36pm Handy Haversack: I picture your and David's random scripts sort of double-helixing around each other in the realm of pure geographic probability, Yeti. Whereas I'm just a doggedly flat curve waiting to be intersected. My next band: The Cannon Shot Without Parabola
	12:36pm Sem: Laos.
	12:40pm David Dichelle: Well put, Handy - and it is true that we have yet to be randomly sent to the Middle East. I suppose Eritrea was the closest so far.
	12:41pm David Dichelle: And thanks Bas, for the explanation of Razende Bol, which did in fact puzzle me.
	🚂 12:42pm Michael 98145: well, hello
	12:42pm David Dichelle: Hello, Michael!
	🚂 12:43pm Bas NL: My guess is it is often visited by UFOs. ;)
	12:43pm David Dichelle: The Dutch Area 51?
	🚂 12:44pm Bas NL: Hah yes! What IS in a name.
	12:45pm David (in London): Kuwait is a nice choice Yeti Bob. I don't know why, it just is.
	🚂 12:45pm Michael 98145: Kuwait probably has tasty cuisine
	12:46pm northguineahills: Spark, singular, so not to be confused w/ Sparks.... I know nothing of Kuwaiti music (I know quite a bit of the music of the surrounding region). I believe today, 2/3rds of the population aren't citizens (imported labor).
	12:50pm northguineahills: can we get Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland)?. I actually have a record of their folk music that spans from the 1910s to 1960s.....
	12:51pm Cmurtha: Been too long since I got on the subway. Hello everyone!
	12:51pm David Dichelle: We sure can, NGH, as soon as random.org gives me the green light. Only 210 left on the list...
	12:51pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Cmurtha!
	12:54pm Hubig Pie: I have a 1/210 chance this train stops in Tunisia, ammiright?
	12:54pm Phillippe Bastille: Hi. I'm guessing Easter Island. Bye again, Zoom is calling...
	🚂 12:54pm Michael 98145: 🙄 the bad bride
	🚂 12:54pm Handy Haversack: Is this the first time two people have guessed the same place? I trust David and Carmichael to stay neutral over Switzerland, though.
	12:55pm David Dichelle: Aloha, Phillippe!
	12:56pm northguineahills: @Phillippe: I've been asking for Rapa Nui for months...
	12:57pm David (in London): Phillippe, Semulator, Cmurtha.
	12:58pm Cmurtha: Howdy David.
	1:00pm Hubig Pie: Let us play the game- identify that bagpipe
	🚂 1:00pm YETI BOB: @Handy - you inspired me to do some probability calculations. Since the pool of remaining countries shrinks every time we play, the odds of choosing correctly from the remaining ones goes up. On the last week, if we're all still here in 4 years, we're guaranteed to guess correctly
	🚂 1:00pm Yvang: QUEBEC-BRETAGNE-IRLANDE STRONG!
	🚂 1:01pm Yvang: Not my random road guess, just related to Coeff 4...
	🚂 1:01pm Bas NL: Had me thinking of beer.. but that's Coreff.
	1:02pm David Dichelle: Yvang: Indeed!
	🚂 1:03pm Handy Haversack: Nice, Yvang! Yeti Bob, the still point at the center of the turning world! 2025!
	🚂 1:03pm YETI BOB: so over the course of 249 shows (length of ISO-3166 list) the expected number of correct guesses per player is ∑(1/n) 1≤n≤249 which comes out to 6.09. So we can expect to be right 6 times if we play long enough.
	🚂 1:03pm Michael 98145: "The song of the dogs" ?
	🚂 1:04pm Yvang: Oh yes Coreff is a famous breton beer... I've heard about a breton Vodka named Roscoff (from the russian sounding city name...breton humour)
	🚂 1:05pm Bas NL: @YB That is if we don't change our guess to the wrong country each time.. :(
	1:05pm David Dichelle: Michael, that's the correct translation of Cân y cŵn.
	1:06pm northguineahills: Also, waiting for Wallis & Fatuna to get their turn...
	🚂 1:07pm YETI BOB: @Bas: You'd have to deliberately choose countries that had already been chosen, which would be silly, since there's a list here: www.wfmu.org...
	🚂 1:08pm Yvang: I hand to look up if Bancs Publics by Georges Brassens had been played on wfmu before and ...nope!
	🚂 1:08pm Handy Haversack: I feel like by the fourth time the Gambia comes up, I'm going to start feeling like I'm cheating.
	🚂 1:08pm YETI BOB: That would be like Handy sticking with Gambia after the inevitable day that we go there. After the horizontal line is intersected, time to pick a new horizonatal line, or else that's just obstinacy
	1:09pm doctorjazz: Purty (the Yael Naim)!
	🚂 1:09pm Handy Haversack: Just Obstinacy: touring with the Quease, 2022!
	🚂 1:10pm YETI BOB: oops I missed an opportunity to type the Gambia!
	🚂 1:10pm Bas NL: @YB True. (I should remember my guesses better..)
	🚂 1:11pm YETI BOB: @Bas: You just have to look at the list of countries we've already visited, and not pick any of those, and you'll be a winner, eventually!
	1:13pm David (in London): Handy, we'd better start getting the merch ready now.
	🚂 1:14pm Bas NL: @YB Yes! That will work!
	🚂 1:16pm Handy Haversack: David, for the T-shirt: "Music to believe impossible things to."
	1:18pm northguineahills: @yeti:should it be ∑(1/n-1) 1≤n≤249 (my math is rusty).....trying to remember sets and iterations....
	1:18pm David Dichelle: Yvang @1:08, that is kind of surprising!
	1:18pm JOhn delray: nouvel écouteur. beau programme.
	🚂 1:18pm YETI BOB: ngh: no don't go dividing by zero my friend
	1:20pm David Dichelle: Merci et bienvenue, John Delray!
	🚂 1:20pm Yvang: @David: But I am pretty sure another very well known cover in spanish or portuguese has been played...by Trouble?
	🚂 1:21pm Handy Haversack: I'm reading Ted Chiang, YB, so I know what that might lead to: heartbreak.
	1:22pm David Dichelle: Yvang: I guess we'll have to put the original out there sometime as well...
	🚂 1:23pm YETI BOB: @ngh: At each step you are picking from a set of N, so the probability is just 1/N, where N starts at 249 and goes down to 1 for the last round. You could write 249≥n≥1 but it's more customary to write the limits in the other direction.
	🚂 1:23pm βrian: I met Ali Farka Toure in Detroit once. That was a fun evening.
	1:26pm David Dichelle: Sure sounds like it, βrian!
	1:27pm Hubig Pie: I've scored free tickets to 2 shows in me entire lifetime, one was for the Decemberists and the other was for Ali Farka Toure
	🚂 1:29pm βrian: I expect it was worth it, Hubig Pie!
	1:30pm Hubig Pie: Brian , they were both great
	🚂 1:32pm Yvang: @David : I 've found the cover of this Brassens song I was thinking of : it's not in spanish but in french creole "Doudou ban foyal" by Sam Alpha .
	1:35pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Yvang, sounds intriguing!
	🚂 1:42pm Bas NL: What a beautiful and complex flute song!

	2:03pm Stanley: Hi Sem. Yes, it's a new look.
	2:04pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Redkayak, photo was in fact from earlier today (which isn't always the case).
	2:05pm Phillippe Bastille: This reminds I'm a bit behind on deep muscle massages...
	🚂 2:05pm Michael 98145: Skål
	2:06pm Sem: re: some Swedish action. Your comment reminded me of this: en.wikipedia.org...
	2:06pm coelacanth∅: skål Michael...and i will always think of that as danish
	🚂 2:08pm Handy Haversack: Nice one, Yvang!
	🚂 2:09pm Carmichael: My favorite Swedish band is Urban Turban.
	2:09pm Phillippe Bastille: @Sem I remember that coming out. I was 10 at the time and rather intrigued. Never saw it when I was old enough, though
	2:09pm Hubig Pie: Am soo looking forward to next week when I'll have a 1 in 209 chance that this train stops in Tunisia
	2:10pm Stanley: I see Sem. I am also a fan of pubic hair and buttocks. (Moderators, can I say that?)
	🚂 2:10pm Handy Haversack: Shrink that N!
	🚂 2:11pm dutchtheo: Hej David!, Heja Yvang och tunnelbana pendlare
	2:12pm Sem: Oh, Stanley. Phillippe: was also young when that film made its boat-rocking arrival here in the don't rock the boat land.
	2:12pm David Dichelle: Heja, DT!
	2:13pm David (in London): Does this give you an excuse to play some Pärson Sound David?
	🚂 2:13pm Threemoons: Loving this Nordic folk rip!
	🚂 2:14pm Yvang: Hi dutchtheo!
	2:15pm coelacanth∅: Stanley, conversely, rex reed preferred prepubescent girls - no pubic hair.
	🚂 2:15pm Yvang: Some Donovanless Hurdy-Gurdy...
	🚂 2:16pm Bas NL: Hurdy-gurdy's are cool!
	2:18pm David (in London): Frost Mats is my new pseudonym.
	🚂 2:18pm redkayak: @David - Wonderful set....
	2:19pm David Dichelle: Thanks RK! Changing gears soon, but not quite yet...
	🚂 2:19pm Michael 98145: Ten million Poles?
	2:19pm David Dichelle: Falling behind on comments, sorry if I missed any...
	2:19pm Stanley: eeks, coela. reminds me I have just signed up on the British Film Institute player for a six week free trial! Last night I watched the whole of Kurasawa's Ran. I am curious as to what else there is. Oh wait, Thursday is a bumper FMU night. (So is Friday)
	🚂 2:19pm Threemoons: Got any Wardruna in the crates?
	2:20pm David Dichelle: Wardruna is Norwegian, but I almost played them earlier in the show, funnily enough.
	2:20pm David (in London): Yeah, Stanley, no time for any of that. You're in this till bedtime now.
	🚂 2:21pm redkayak: @David - You have permission to stay in this gear, lol...
	2:21pm David Dichelle: The gears won't change that abruptly, I hope.
	2:22pm Stanley: You are absolutely correct, David. The weekend is usually a better time for films.
	2:24pm David Dichelle: Next song(s) will be in the Sami language(s).
	2:25pm Funky16Corners: As a semi-Swede, I am digging these sounds!
	🚂 2:25pm βrian: Why, I just had a sami. Roast turkey on sourdough with cheddar, banana peppers, and mayo.
	🚂 2:25pm Threemoons: @David thank you! :)
	2:25pm David Dichelle: Glad you're enjoying it, Larry!
	🚂 2:27pm Threemoons: What about Garmarna? I forget if they are Swedish or Norwegian...
	2:27pm Funky16Corners: There’s a Fairport vibe to some of this.
	🚂 2:27pm Handy Haversack: This is in Sami? the "Rosenbergs Sjua"?
	2:28pm coelacanth∅: Stanley yes i suppose my comment was a bit rash! just that i put such film critics on the same bottom-feeder level as most well-known music critics. (and his comment about pubic hair deserved some sort of hateful acknowledgement)
	2:29pm Stanley: Nice selection of Swedish music, (so far, until we hit the Death Metal)
	2:29pm David Dichelle: Rijddár is the first of three Sami tracks.
	🚂 2:29pm Threemoons: Nice....
	🚂 2:30pm βrian: There's cured salmon with mustard-dill sauce on the buffet. Eat up.
	2:30pm David Dichelle: 3M: Gamarna are in fact Swedish. Almost played them just before as well!
	2:30pm coelacanth∅: Larry, as a person that prefers to drive swedish automobiles i'm digging also!
	🚂 2:30pm Yvang: Metal or Abba?
	2:30pm David Dichelle: Yvang, that is the question!
	2:30pm David (in London): Ands some brännvin to wash it down with.
	2:31pm Stanley: You could say a veritable Smörgåsbord
	2:31pm David Dichelle: And thanks, Stanley, we shall see...
	🚂 2:32pm βrian: I bought a Volvo wagon because I wanted to schlep materials from the lumber yard.
	🚂 2:33pm Threemoons: I love Gamarna!
	2:33pm David Dichelle: 3M: I'll try to get them in next week :)
	🚂 2:36pm Handy Haversack: Ah, OK, now we're in Sami land. βrian, my friend always makes that salmon as the appetizer on Burns Night. And then, of course, the neeps are made of a swede!
	2:36pm coelacanth∅: volvos are good for that. good for living/sleeping in as well. with the back seats down the bed is 6'1" long. (longer with the front seats pushed forward)
	2:36pm David Dichelle: 3M: Or who knows...
	🚂 2:36pm Michael 98145: like what we're hearing here
	🚂 2:37pm βrian: 5 full sheets of plywood on the roof. It's a lumbering beast, for sure.
	2:40pm headcleaner: Fixing myself a plate of hummus w/ carrot-rye bread from a Swedish bakery I was fortunate to be able to visit here in NYC yesterday (on one of my few necessary subway trips), as we speak
	2:40pm David Dichelle: This one is in Finnish.
	2:40pm coelacanth∅: and the 5-speed transmissions can be driven hard (as long as it's also correctly)... something i've had to unlearn as i'm driving an old audi now. i need to be gentler on it.
	2:41pm David Dichelle: Guten Appetit, Headcleaner!
	🚂 2:41pm Handy Haversack: Though I heard "Suomi" in the first line!
	2:41pm coelacanth∅: my mind is stuck on that salmon.
	🚂 2:41pm Handy Haversack: *Thought^ Der.
	🚂 2:42pm Handy Haversack: On pumpernickel, coela. Though I skip the fish and have just the sauce and the bread.
	2:43pm David Dichelle: Handy, that sure gives it away. It's the Stockholm-based Månskensorkestern and it was for a Swedish-Finnish documentary film.
	🚂 2:43pm Michael 98145: I know she's Danish, but i've become quite a fan of Amalie Bruun (Myrkur).
	🚂 2:44pm Brian in UK: Hello David, been running to keep up with the day.
	2:45pm David Dichelle: Good evening, Brian, hope it was a good one!
	2:45pm Rick from SC: Wow, all I did was change streams and I ended up in Sweden. Not that I'm complaining.
	🚂 2:45pm Michael 98145: "Open yer window"
	🚂 2:45pm Bas NL: Great cow bell.
	🚂 2:46pm Brian in UK: Knowing me, Brian Knowing you, David Ahaaaa
	2:46pm David Dichelle: Welcome, Rick!
	2:46pm Stanley: This Lisa Ekdahl is excellent
	2:46pm Phillippe Bastille: I owned a Saab for several months. We spelled it Sob due to the frequency it broke down. The shortest distance it went without breaking down was about 15 feet (no exaggeration -- fixed a tire in the driveway, water pump went up when I put it in the garage)
	🚂 2:48pm Handy Haversack: Did the Lisa Ekdahl song sound a little like James's "Laid"? Or I guess other way round.
	2:48pm Phillippe Bastille: Downy woodpecker at the feeder today, Handy. All the snow slush blew into the cove so no ducks
	2:50pm melinda: The tunes today have been a nice backdrop for puttering and preparing for arrival of new washer and dryer, thanks!
	🚂 2:50pm Yvang: I'd say swedish music is more joyous than swedish cinema.
	🚂 2:50pm Threemoons: Estonian on the 2013 track?
	🚂 2:50pm Bas NL: YES!
	2:50pm coelacanth∅: Handy i'd like that too. most days. i eat fish about once/week, and i crave it if i don't have that or eggs for over a week, or maybe 10 days. i think my body really needs the protein sometimes
	🚂 2:50pm Brian in UK: Yipeeee.
	2:50pm Rick from SC: @Phillippe, I also saw a downy woodpecker this AM on my backyard feeder
	🚂 2:50pm βrian: Oh, my. My stream just bounced to another stream ...
	🚂 2:51pm Threemoons: ABBA! dances at desk
	2:51pm headcleaner: I think I know this band
	🚂 2:51pm Yvang: What? ABBA in swedish????
	🚂 2:51pm Handy Haversack: Ah, nice. We finally saw a cardinal again out back yesterday. coela, I think I average about 1.4 eggs a day!
	2:52pm Stanley: Great stuff
	🚂 2:52pm Yvang: My swedish guess was in fact a wish... beautifully fullfilled! Thanks, David!
	🚂 2:53pm Michael 98145: Finally facing my Waterloo
	🚂 2:53pm YETI BOB: phew, meetings ar over, i get back in time to enjoy some of this fine Swedish music. (any chance we'll here Dungen? - I guess not, it's over!)
	2:53pm coelacanth∅: i used to love waterloo! still the only abba song i like
	🚂 2:53pm Bas NL: Ahhh... No! Not the final stop already?! Great set!!
	2:53pm David (in London): Thanks for a great show again today David. Later groovers.
	🚂 2:53pm YETI BOB: Yvang! You guessed correctly! Amazing! What are the odds? (Oh, 1/220, right)
	🚂 2:54pm Handy Haversack: This trip is always over just as it seems like it's getting going! Thanks, David! What a great ride. I'd do it all again. Be well, Voyageurs. And remember, let's never talk about the barring of the door!
	2:54pm Sem: Thanks, David. Great fun today, as always. See you and all next time, for more ABBA if possible. waves goodbye
	2:54pm Stanley: Splendid, thanks David. See ya, Sem, all.
	2:55pm coelacanth∅: Phillippe @246 that's crazy! i was with someone who had an old(ish) saab 900 and it was great! there was some electrical weirdness that i fixed in a matter of an hour or 2. (mostly grounding issues, as usual)
	🚂 2:55pm Michael 98145: thanks again!
	🚂 2:55pm chris in the redwoods: thanks, David, that was great. :)
	🚂 2:55pm Bas NL: Thanks David! Great show!
	2:57pm Phillippe Bastille: Thanks David
	2:57pm coelacanth∅: this person (who owned the old saab, and who taught me "skål") learned english with her sister by listening to abba records
	🚂 2:58pm chresti: Thanks David!
	🚂 2:58pm Handy Haversack: Very proud we were all to mature to make a "Down at Fågel Roc" joke -- until now!
	🚂 2:59pm dutchtheo: Tak, David! Skål!
	2:59pm coelacanth∅: Thanks David! great program, what i heard; great swedish set!
	3:00pm Phillippe Bastille: @coel it was a 95. GM had gotten their fingers in it and killed it. I loved the ride, the look, everything. Lost an alternator, water pump, an then the rest of the motor over the course of 3 months. $6k down the drain.
	3:00pm David Dichelle: Thanks, everyone!
	🚂 10:16pm WR: hi David, catching up from the archive, Meir Ariel doing Kotsim 1, it sounds to me just like "You're Dead" by Norma Tanega. curious.
	8:07am David Dichelle: Good catch, WR, there is a striking similarity - although I keep thinking it reminds me of something else as well, but I still can't put my finger on it.
