Listener comments!
	♥ 9:01am Trouble: good morning sunny soon to be March modern world!
	♥ 9:01am LastVisibleDog: good morning
	♥ 9:01am HyperDose: Just wait, the hooligans are going to start pouring in!
	♥ 9:02am Strandlund: Good Morning Trouble and all you beautiful Modernaires...
	♥ 9:03am melinda: Morning all!
	♥ 9:03am Handy Haversack: Bright good morning, Trouble and all the Troubled.
	♥ 9:03am βrian: Bright morning!
	♥ 9:06am StringOFperils: Hello! March is near. Spring blossoms are soon. Shadows sound the retreat. It's going to be alright.
	♥ 9:06am alanr: Today's show will be in my ears, while I walk to buy a fresh mackerel at the Chinese supermarket, here in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. Unfortunately, the mackerel won't be able to enjoy it as much as I.
	♥ 9:07am Trouble: does anybody have suggestions for learning how to meditate? an app? a book? a web site?
	9:07am fm Mike: Trouble! Friends! Love this piece/peace!
	♥ 9:08am Trouble: or should i just enter a buddhist monastery?
	♥ 9:08am YETI BOB: Trouble: If you can do it, a meditation retreat
	9:09am uselysses: Morning all! Trouble, I've found that all the apps are at least okay about this - I personally enjoyed 10% happier the most in terms of guidance. There are a ton of classes and guided meditations but after the initial basics it's a subscription fee for access.
	♥ 9:09am Trouble: thanks @yeti: that is a long way off, at least until the end of school
	♥ 9:09am alanr: maybe this: kripalu.org
	♥ 9:09am zopa: How to Mediitae: A Practical Guide by Kathleen McDonald
	♥ 9:10am YETI BOB: IMO it's like exercise - you already know what to do, you just have to be motivated and stick with it. That's why being in a setting where other people are doing it too can help.
	♥ 9:10am Trouble: i read his book @ uselysses, enyoyed it, will look for that.
	♥ 9:10am zopa: oopps Meditate not Mediitae
	♥ 9:11am YETI BOB: Different strokes for different folks but I feel like I don't need a guide to lead me through meditation, but I often need a guide to lead me to meditation
	♥ 9:11am steveo: Good morning Trouble & all. Enjoying the vibe.
	♥ 9:11am LastVisibleDog: Never heard Bridget before...this is really nice.
	♥ 9:12am βrian: Many different styles of meditation, of course. I had a friend who really liked Vipassana. I did Zazen off and on for a decade. A roshi once described it as a "laboratory of pain," all the while smiling broadly.
	♥ 9:13am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I've watched a couple of interesting videos recently with people dishing on TM and how you don't really need to pay all that money for "the secret"
	♥ 9:13am YETI BOB: THE SECRET IS FREE!
	♥ 9:14am steveo: I like 'How to Sit' by Thich Nhat Hanh
	♥ 9:14am Shira: Haven't heard this one in a long time! It sounds great.
	♥ 9:14am EG_Astro: good morning everyone
	♥ 9:15am Webhamster Henry: Hello Modern World dwellers! You know, the hellos and thank yous on the WFMU chat board are very satisfying on an elemental level.
	♥ 9:16am Trouble: i'm reading 'Advice Not Given' by Mark Epstein right now. His books are fab. But I would like a little more guidance.o the irony
	♥ 9:16am StringOFperils: There is the Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centre on W. 24th St. in Manhattan, Trouble. Someone there can help you to understand meditation. There are one-off workshops I think. But TRUE, all of the 'secrets' are in you. I think it just takes daily practice: emptying your mind. Turning off the chatter. Go outside. Sit still. Listen to the birds.
	♥ 9:16am Trouble: merci @steveo; I will look for that
	♥ 9:16am Cal Zone!: Good morning! Really digging the opening set!
	♥ 9:16am melinda: love yusef lateef jazz flute
	♥ 9:17am Webhamster Henry: Shutting down the "monkey mind" is difficult!
	♥ 9:17am βrian: One nice feature of meditation: It's dirt cheap!
	♥ 9:17am dougseidel: Trouble: one easy task, that is not easy (for me anyway): can i remember to feel my feet on the ground? Where is my attention at??
	♥ 9:19am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Re: Monkey mind - a couple of years ago I made the decision to not look at _any_ devices for the first hour after getting up. I don't know that it made a huge difference but it did help. Reading The Wire or some poetry was way better for my brain than the headlines of the day.
	♥ 9:19am Yvang: And would be wise asking DJ Micah of Music Of Mind Control in order to avoid any potentially toxic organisation.
	♥ 9:19am Trouble: that's good advice @doug. gracias!
	♥ 9:20am StringOFperils: I think one of the conditions for peace seems to be to work thoughtlessly for others. The ego IS the monkey chatter. Being busy looking after stuff that is outside of you and what you think you look like to others. That's one path.
	♥ 9:20am melinda: @Woods I've done that a few times and it can help.
	♥ 9:20am YETI BOB: Vedanta Centre is a good suggestion. Even if you can't do a meditation retreat you can try to get in touch with other meditators. It will be easier if you are part of a group or community
	♥ 9:21am Trouble: thanks@yvang
	♥ 9:21am melinda: I've found slow breathing to be helpful.
	♥ 9:22am cosmic matrix: Good morning all! Hi melinda!
	♥ 9:23am cosmic matrix: No work this week; shut down 'cause of too many Covid employees...I'm hopefully getting tested today
	9:23am Slaboch: Lovin' this set!
	♥ 9:23am melinda: hey cosmic
	9:23am Arlene Stein: Dusty!!!
	9:23am Deborah: @Trouble: I was taught by some of the best (MA Holistic Health Studies, Post grad Center for Mind-Body Medicine and still learning). When I teach it depends on the purpose of the meditation. However, the work of Jon Kabat-Zinn (MBSR) is wonderful. I use the work of Tich Nhat Hanh a lot when I teach meditation. Really, just start by breathing in, breathing out. If a thought or emotion shows up, let it go or concentrate on it; your choice. There is so much but basically there is nothing. Sit. Breathe. Be.
	♥ 9:24am StringOFperils: Doing this radio show could be a form of meditation. The more you give , the more free you are, right? It feels good. And you're in THIS world, which is also right.
	9:24am Jesse Dorris: I was about to say what a beautiful show you're doing so far, Trouble, but now I have to lie back in bed and cry a little along with Dusty :)
	9:24am Deborah: Love this song!
	♥ 9:25am Trouble: stringofperils: i am on that path to the overmax, so i need to find another outlet for calm. trying to make sure students graduate from virtual high school during covid is sucking the life blood out of me
	♥ 9:26am cosmic matrix: ha, i consider work to be paid karma yoga meditation! and my teachers are little kids
	♥ 9:26am YETI BOB: I think they are lucky to have you as a teacher, Trouble
	♥ 9:26am cosmic matrix: ok into the morning bath i go!
	♥ 9:26am TDK60: Hi Trouble and WFMUers.
	♥ 9:26am Trouble: thank you @deborah! merci jesse doris!
	♥ 9:27am Pale Son: @Trouble Just seeing this meditation discussion. Different styles definitely work better or worse for different people. I personally put a lot of energy into Zen and mindfulness meditations with little success before trying TM decades later and noticing immediate results. I'd say you should be able to tell within a couple of weeks whether whatever you're trying is actually getting you anywhere.
	♥ 9:27am Mike W: Songs to soothe a troubled beast (my sensitive dog, on account of a fourth consecutive morning of Keystone Klutzes working on my leaky radiator)
	♥ 9:27am βrian: The idea of concentrating on a thought or sensation is interesting. I've had little demonic itches rear their bristly heads from time to time. Strangely, when I focused on them in a relaxed way, they flare but eventually recede into the ether. "Stay if you like," I'd say, But no.
	♥ 9:27am Trouble: that's good to hear @ pale son
	9:27am Toutevoix: @Trouble...try to spend 24h withuot speaking, listening then enter silent communication with others ( without miming like mime Marceau or theatrical drama to ask for salt or bread at the table...) could be an entrance to listening/meditation...well then in this distanciation period you might choose to shut down internet and communication devices from time to time ( me too teaching in distance on a laptop far away from my artschool ) well anyway have a gooooood morning there listening from Italy take care
	♥ 9:28am Trouble: grazie@toutevoix
	9:28am Deborah: @YETI BOB So true, much of the time! My grad teachers used to say "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear." It could be a person, or a nonhuman animal. A few trees have taught me so much. Well, this is getting esoteric. Waiting for the trolls.
	♥ 9:30am Mike W: Burn Trolls for Better Meditative States
	9:31am Toutevoix: the dumbest thing would be entering a burnout working by yourself on your own in the distance alone with a computer without limitating yourself....crazy days I see friends almost making burnout teaching on internet....one as to learn how to stop the machine! SLOW DOWN and spend more time cooking watching listening whatever, my advice would be even if you live in a city everybody should GROW PLANTS and vegetables the period of seminating is coming right nowww ))) take care green ears
	♥ 9:32am Ken From Hyde Park: Pour water into a glass. Add an ice cube. Watch it slowly melt away. Imagine tension and anxiety melt away with it. When you've had enough, drink the water and imagine the benefits of water intake. Thankfulness that we have access to clean water; so many do not these days.
	♥ 9:32am Mike W: I’m also appreciating all the talk because after years of slipping away from mindfulness meditation I’ve been trying to make TM a daily thing (having gleaned aspects of the “secret” online — just, select a mantra for yourself rather being assigned one? can anyone confirm that is the shape/size of the TM secret?)
	♥ 9:32am Mike W: Nice one @Ken From HP
	♥ 9:33am YETI BOB: my mantra is WADAYAGUNADU - it works great for me
	♥ 9:33am StringOFperils: Ahh, Trouble. It sounds like you're under considerable duress. It can't be at all easy to nudge high school students forward these days (or any other days). And then there's the 'news cycle'. And the environment. And the etc etc etc. I think Ken has the right idea. It sounds funny, but there isn't much more to it than that.
	♥ 9:33am steveo: beautiful set
	♥ 9:33am Handy Haversack: Ken, I tend to do my thinking on that topic while making cocktails, but the spirit (so to speak!) is there.
	♥ 9:34am βrian: Regarding cooking, when I get up in the morning I wonder "What's for dinner?" Then I can slowly involve myself over the course of the day.
	♥ 9:34am Roberto: Technically, shouldn't that be "this is This is the Modern World?"
	♥ 9:35am βrian: Chop wood, carry water, soak beans.
	♥ 9:35am Handy Haversack: Ha, me, too, βrian! Though I think my results are not as impressive as yours ...
	♥ 9:35am dougseidel: using a different mouth?
	♥ 9:35am Irene Trudel: You're sounding just fine, Trouble. Great opening set as usual, BTW.
	9:35am Martinibomb: @trouble sounds like your computer is accidentally using your built-in computer Mic rather than the USB
	♥ 9:35am βrian: Ah, we've had some good laughs at my culinary misfires.
	9:36am sphere: hullo
	9:36am Martinibomb: As Irene says though you sound fine so don't worry about it right now.
	♥ 9:36am Ken From Hyde Park: @Handy - Indeed. I should have added (* substitute alcohol, if desired) to my spiel.
	♥ 9:37am Trouble: mic problem fixed! o lordy...
	9:37am Toutevoix: @Ken in the miw water & ice cube in glass fits very well with PASTIS 51 then the sun will share your mediation moment... south france speciality pouring pastis, doin' the less you can ahhhh less is more close to the sea
	♥ 9:37am YETI BOB: @Toutevoix: great advice. I'm in the city but I grow plants on the deck and windowsill and it helps a lot. I had some sourdough rising overnight and now it's time to knead it and form the loaf - so, stepping away from the keyboard for a while.
	♥ 9:38am βrian: @Toutevoix: I detect the scent of rosemary in the breeze. ... and thyme.
	9:39am Davefrom Brooklyn: Hey,we're in trouble again! Lucky for us.
	♥ 9:39am eºIºk: You were completely audible and understandable, even if the acoustics were not 100% cromulent (i.e. you sounded a little wee bit like you were halfway inside a metal filing cabinet).
	♥ 9:39am StringOFperils: Any minute now I have to become one with the kitty litter box until we're pure again.
	9:40am Mike In S. Jersey: Nothing better than "Irene Approved" - go with it!
	♥ 9:40am Handy Haversack: Sounds like you've got the inside scoop, SOp.
	♥ 9:40am HyperDose: But will the revolution be televised?
	♥ 9:40am Trouble: omg! i am not made for this modern digital world
	♥ 9:41am StringOFperils: All the poop that's fit to print ( on the inside of the trash can).
	9:41am Toutevoix: @Yeti of course a Yeti needs nature around him, then some plants have real impact on cleaning air around you if like me you stay in a flat poluuted by the fuckin city around you, it can help feel a little better and breathe then you can seminate in boxes some vegetables I can insure you zucchini grows like nothing even in the city
	♥ 9:41am steveo: i'm grateful for the wfmu remote broadcasts and will gladly suffer the occasional muffledness
	♥ 9:41am Roberto: Well, except for the nonbinary/gender-fluid. I guess those are "siblings?"
	9:42am Deborah: As a college prof suffering teaching online, I have to agree about the stress level and the agonies associated with both online and remote teaching. I got to the point where I had to pull back a little. Students will have to wait a day or two longer to get their work back; I will have to make choices which courses I will teach and which I will no longer. Starting this week, actually. All will survive without our continual attention.
	♥ 9:43am βrian: Our lovely knucklehead of a cat used to lounge in the litter box once it was cleaned. He's lost that habit, thankfully.
	♥ 9:44am Roberto: Has anyone else noticed that rescue cats on display at pet stores often sleep in their litter boxes?
	♥ 9:45am B R M: I have to get on these Ace Records comps... too many good records. argh.
	♥ 9:45am Andrew Waterloo: From experience, rabbits tend to sleep in their litter boxes after a trip to the vet
	♥ 9:45am βrian: Ours was a flea-bitten alley cat. He still thinks downspouts are the proper way to be watered.
	♥ 9:46am TDK60: I started trying meditation recently. No guidance, I just sit for 15-20 min., relaxing, focusing on breathing. I notice all my chatty thoughts inside and try to focus back on the breath.
	♥ 9:47am Handy Haversack: Trouble, I wouldn't have noticed the mic issue if you hadn't called it out. As steveo says, just getting to hear you and all the other DJs at all is a gift. We are not sweating the small stuff.
	9:48am Toutevoix: @HyperDoze the revolution wasn't in television...might not happen either inside a digitalized world of telecomm... but maybe it can happen growing plants ( and building a project for a civilization of naked people of course ahah naked people can't make war don't they...?)
	♥ 9:48am Trouble: i was talking to the back of the mic! the mic cover obscured the fact: hysterical
	9:49am Toutevoix: Planting a revolution...More seriously share here and recommand if you can find it: www.masterclass.com...
	♥ 9:50am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I love Ghost Funk Orchestra. Feels like they're younger cousins of Lucious Jackson.
	9:51am wenzo llc.: this set is fire yeeooo!!!
	♥ 9:52am HyperDose: @Toutevoix Luckily my town and the surrounding ones have had community gardening & compost programs for years now. Like new seeds taking root, hoping it spreads to other areas!
	♥ 9:52am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Toutevois: I wish I was the kind of person who liked to garden.
	9:53am Toutevoix: Ron Finley, but if you search about how to grow plants books reviews stores that can send you seeds directly home... you realise it's really simple and a great GREAT GREAT satisfaction spread spread spread & share...if you can care a plant you can love and may change something about your quotidian life....ZUCCHINI POWER
	9:54am Toutevoix: seems plants appreciate a lot listening wfmu too ))
	♥ 9:55am YETI BOB: Japanese Eggplant was very productive and delicious for me last summer! Will do that again.
	♥ 9:55am Trouble: have you seen the PBS documentary about the tv show;SOUL! it is fabulous. here are some episodes of the show to watch www.shoutfactorytv.com...
	♥ 9:55am Passaic River Blues: Adore this set!
	♥ 9:55am cosmic matrix: ditto
	♥ 9:56am Trouble: merci @ passaic!!
	♥ 9:56am Rick from SC: I just planted greens, e.g. Spinach, lettuce, arugula, kale, rutabaga, etc. The weather has finally been nice down here
	♥ 9:56am Pale Son: Glad you solved the mic mystery, Trouble!
	♥ 9:57am Phillippe Bastille: good morning
	♥ 9:58am HyperDose: When I was a kid we got lumber delivered and built our own plots in the backyard. Growing your own food is empowering. Hopefully they'll put some of that marijuana money into schools so kids can learn actual life skills like gardening, cooking, music. Oh and infrastructure. NJ's roads are trash.
	♥ 9:58am TDK60: I saw an article recently that said certain house plants are better for cleaning home air than others. (Sorry forget where I saw.)
	9:59am Toutevoix: @Rick from SC good to begin in this period beans then chili peppers potates then april ZUCCHINI Basilic salads cuncumbers......of course if you have a garden and some space someplace ...
	♥ 10:01am Handy Haversack: Morning, Phillippe!
	♥ 10:01am YETI BOB: still eating pickled habaneros that i grew last summer! (a little goes a long way with that stuff)
	10:02am Toutevoix: Grass plants euhhh succulents? then clean just put some in your area and bathroom some can clean some bad stuff like...furniture are full of glue and recompose woods then air in the city.....aloe & ficus some of them depollute? seems ... anyway
	♥ 10:02am Rick from SC: @toutevoix, I have lots of seeds, plenty of space, but not enough time.
	10:03am Toutevoix: habaneros i'd like to taste, here we have different variety don't know there names only the scale of strong or sweet...
	♥ 10:03am StringOFperils: These Thursday morning sets have been excellent. They evoke 'enough time'.
	♥ 10:04am LastVisibleDog: I hope my students are doing this!
	♥ 10:04am steveo: haha; excellent tip
	♥ 10:04am Handy Haversack: YB, I'm going to e-mail you for some advice on starting to actually grow things -- peppers, tomatoes, beans. You should, er, pretend I know nothing!
	♥ 10:04am Pale Son: Ha ha! Could happen to anyone.
	10:04am Toutevoix: you don(t have time but but but you can spend a week end to put those seeds in boxes then for the zucchini...you have nothing to doooooo only water and be regular rick rick let's try rick'n'roll
	♥ 10:04am βrian: We did a bunch of dilly beans last year, and two quarts of pickled carrots. And lots of tomatoes, though we have to pick those elsewhere.
	10:05am JohnnyBoy: You are indeed a gem. So good to hear you clearly once again haha!
	♥ 10:05am LastVisibleDog: @Handy - here in LA the weather is so nice I'm taking a chance and planting some tomatoes and peppers I grew up from seeds. We'll see.
	10:05am Toutevoix: @Handy Haversack yes share
	♥ 10:06am full metal monkey: I seriously saw frank sinatra sing into the wrong side of the mic once.
	10:07am Mike In S. Jersey: Has this been covered in TapeOp?
	♥ 10:07am Phillippe Bastille: mornin' Handy!
	10:07am Slaboch: This is the pandemic anthem at our house!
	♥ 10:08am Trouble: good one@slaboch!
	10:08am Toutevoix: @full metal monkey frank maybe was really high...or too much habit didn't even take alook at the mic or was turning his back to the audience....wondering )))
	♥ 10:08am Handy Haversack: Ha, Toutevoix, no, I'm the one who needs the advice!
	♥ 10:08am TDK60: Great to hear Simone. (The Give the Drummer stream's DJ Stork show did a Nina S. special on Sun. Feb. 21.)
	♥ 10:08am StringOFperils: In the event that anyone's interested in a lovely great deal of Nina Simone's output (courtesy of Drummer stream's Stork): wfmu.org...
	♥ 10:09am Passaic River Blues: @TDK60 & StringOfPerils: thank you!
	♥ 10:11am YETI BOB: @HH: I'll tell you everything I know, even if that's not very much :)
	♥ 10:11am full metal monkey: @toutevoix. No I was actually back stage. I work in production. It was at the garden state arts center in no. Along time ago. Stage manager went on stage and handed him a new mic. With it facing the right way to save face. True story
	♥ 10:12am full metal monkey: Frank was a little tipsy
	10:12am Toutevoix: @ahah oki Handy: look at ron finley method the only I know in english actually but so many helps you can find on the web www.youtube.com... www.youtube.com... or just give it a try you can buy also grown up seeds of vegetables more simples Zucchini and tomatoes ....
	♥ 10:13am Yes: hello everyone
	♥ 10:14am Handy Haversack: Grazie mille, Toutevoix, YB!
	♥ 10:14am StringOFperils: Glad Nina Simone's getting so much love on WFMU. 'The truth will out.'
	10:14am Toutevoix: @ full metal monkey wow crazy, indeed clever to react like that live on stage......
	10:16am sphere: @ Toutevoix Your stage manager was a consummate pro.
	10:16am sphere: sorry--@ full metal monkey
	♥ 10:17am full metal monkey: @toutevoix. Yeah well someone should of thrown up the red flag when Frank was trying to open a tick tac pack upside down 5 minutes earlier before taking the stage.
	10:18am sphere: @ full metal monkey - When did that event happen?
	10:18am Toutevoix: ups and downs in a life of a star... singing was good? enough tick tacks?
	10:19am aaronfromMI: didn't expect to tune into wfmu this morning and cry, but here I am.
	10:19am Toutevoix: we are all crying together aaron welcome
	♥ 10:20am Trouble: i'm with you @aaronfromMI.
	♥ 10:20am full metal monkey: @sphere well I’m guessing because it was so so long ago. Maybe early 90’s. Late 80’s
	10:20am Toutevoix: except about Frank Sinatra's mic, a good laugh
	♥ 10:21am full metal monkey: @sphere. It was the last show he did at the garden state arts center. When it was the garden state arts center
	♥ 10:22am Mike W: “Day and Night” was a regular dancefloor jam for me when i DJed regularly, thanks for reminding me of its unique swing
	♥ 10:22am full metal monkey: You know what the crowd thought it was a bad mic. When his voice suddenly boomed with the new mic the crowd cheeered.
	♥ 10:22am PaulRobeson1920: Goood morning from Sheepshead Bay.
	10:23am Toutevoix: fans...
	10:25am Toutevoix: the stage manager for sure had some critics about his job from some fans then he wouldn't say nothing and saved the face of a star twice...
	10:25am Toutevoix: anyway thanks for sharing !
	♥ 10:26am TDK60: Good morning Paul Robeson1920, way down there.
	♥ 10:27am full metal monkey: @toutevoix. Lol there were a lot of people around the stage that witnessed it and knew about it.
	10:28am aaronfromMI: Most of the snow has melted in Philly. Going to be close to 50 degrees today.
	10:29am Slaboch: Wow! Never heard that Claudine Longet song before, so great!
	♥ 10:30am Trouble: claudine had some crazee gems...
	10:31am Toutevoix: reminds me of Elvis laughing performing live toniiiight with his chorist....those end of career kind of silly moments
	♥ 10:32am Trouble: jealous@aaron... we still have mountainous piles of it here. without the charm of switzerland.
	10:34am aaronfromMI: @trouble, not much charm left in the small piles of snow in Philly. Actually, not much charm here at all! The sunshine is helping, however.
	10:34am Toutevoix: are you lonesoooooome tonight? laughing version which is not quite the moodof the show just right now but why not... ))
	♥ 10:35am TDK60: I still have charming snow out my back window, in an adjacent building's unused back yard.
	♥ 10:35am PaulRobeson1920: Happy 88th Birthday in the great beyond Nina Simone! Beautiful day in the sun today TDK!
	10:35am Dragoicho: I'm playing all of this through reverb and the windows are open, c'est parfait
	♥ 10:35am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): It has been warm up here. The ugly "under-snow" has been revealed.
	♥ 10:36am TDK60: P.R.1920- I was sayin' "down there" as I live far far north, up in Washington Heights. Hee.
	♥ 10:37am Handy Haversack: The sidewalk piles are mostly gone here, so the dog-poop and cigarette-butt caches are beginning to wash away ... into the river. Sorry, ocean.
	♥ 10:38am Hubig Pie: Charming snow=white, fluffy and sparkling Ugly snow=rotten, grey and full of road pitch
	♥ 10:40am Josh Allen: good morning and go bills
	♥ 10:40am YETI BOB: It will be at least a few more days before it all melts in Chicago - we've got some big piles and some real hard-pack. But it's happening.
	♥ 10:40am Listener Gregory: Sorry, I forgot it was Thursday.
	10:41am Toutevoix: Charing & Ugly Frank Sinatra singing "Let it snow" mic the wrong way have a good morning there!
	♥ 10:44am Handy Haversack: That Ludus was very playful!
	♥ 10:45am paddy in matawan: Fun tunes. Mornin' all!
	10:46am peter in SEA: Bonjour Trouble and listeners, late to the party, will catch up in archives. It's Thursday!
	10:46am peter in SEA: Cool Plaster piece @Trouble--thinking of doing plaster with your students?
	♥ 10:47am Trouble: bonjour! no plaster from afar @peter, the distance clay moment was enough to be remembered always
	10:48am Mark Williams: that's the singer Junior Byles on this Lee Perry production.
	10:49am Mark Williams: sorry, Bunny Lee production.
	♥ 10:49am Handy Haversack: I am declaring it officially deiced enough to switch back to vegetarian paratrooper boots from vegetarian hiking boots!
	10:50am Sigurður: Beep
	♥ 10:50am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Vegetarian Paratroopers would be a great band name.
	♥ 10:50am Earl City: Thanks for that great Nina set!
	10:50am peter in SEA: ohhhhhh @Trouble I'll have to hear about distance clay. I'm contemplating it for a bit later. Distance cardboard and wire today! Oy very!
	♥ 10:51am Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	10:51am Mark Williams: RIP U-Roy.
	♥ 10:51am Rick from SC: Bodega Pop just played a bunch of U-roy
	♥ 10:52am Passaic River Blues: U-Roy toasting over Cornell Campbell--very nice! Also, RIP Mr. Beckford.
	♥ 10:54am Handy Haversack: You can use that, Woods! The hound and I are heading out to walk in the cool sun. Thanks, Trouble! Great sounds. The Nina Simone set was wonderful. Hope to make it back for a few minutes before the end. Thanks, SkeleMatt! Later on, Toubled ones!
	♥ 10:55am Ken From Hyde Park: $mall ¢hange also had some U-Roy selections overnight.
	♥ 10:56am HyperDose: Hey you enjoy that walk, sir Haversack!
	10:57am Mark Williams: http://jamaica-gleaner.com/article/entertainment/20210218/godfather-and-trailblazer-daddy-u-roy-has-died
	10:59am Mark Williams: ok, this is a Lee Perry production ("Stick Together").
	♥ 11:00am TomDash: RIP U-Roy...great set, Trouble!
	♥ 11:00am tim from champaign (now washington): Hey Trouble! Wreck it up!
	♥ 11:01am HyperDose: Skeletal Chair was my 8th grade metal band
	11:03am mb: Hey Trouble Long live U-Roy!
	♥ 11:04am TDK60: I used a U-Roy LP to introduce reggae to some young friends once. It worked.
	♥ 11:06am Andrea: how to meditate! Great (and weirdo!)guided meditations on the Insight timer app! You can find what you like there. And Tara Brach has great guided meditations on her podcast.
	♥ 11:06am oshiwoshi: Autogenic Training is a good practice for those that have trouble clearing the mind
	♥ 11:06am People Like Us: You can drop me a line offline about meditation, Trouble, I do so twice a day and have done for over a decade.
	♥ 11:06am TDK60: I see in that Gleaner article (thanks Mark W.) he was called Daddy U-Roy in Jamaica. Didn't know.
	♥ 11:06am listener james from westwood: Lillian Hak! IIRC you had her on live and it was an excellent set.
	11:07am stingy d: i went to the golding institute a long time ago to get my relaxation affairs in order
	♥ 11:08am Trouble: will do@ people like us! gracias
	11:08am Mark Williams: @TDK60 - that was a "title" that at some point over the years just sort of happened, when it was clear that generations of DJs/toasters had been spawned from what he had popularized. Not sure when exactly, but I'm guessing after the '80s.
	♥ 11:08am Listener Gregory: I went to the gelding institute to get my relaxation affairs in order.
	11:10am headcleaner: From what I understand, the key to finding a successful meditation pose is to try not to look like you're not meditating
	♥ 11:12am tim from champaign (now washington): I was just listening to a Fania comp in the car on my way to work!
	11:12am headcleaner: (or rather, simply "to look like you're not meditating") - should have meditated before typing that
	♥ 11:14am Andrea: ...Or you can just lay down and space out with Alice Coltrane... I like that too.
	♥ 11:14am HyperDose: I second the Coltrane method
	♥ 11:17am Josh Allen: for anybody interested, this is a good guide on posture / instructions etc. zmm.org...
	11:17am mb: Oh yes. Have not heard Macondo in sooo long.
	11:18am Listening Out There: This is the Modern Weird
	♥ 11:19am Trouble: merci@ joshallen
	11:20am sugarwolf: Next week is the 30th anniversary of Gainsbourg’s death.
	♥ 11:20am jdaAndAnoukFromKöln: nice…
	♥ 11:20am PaulRobeson1920: A longg walk is good; or playing a sport vigorously, will put you in the moment. Knitting, Crocheting... Oh, washing your hands, brushing your teeth. Making the bed in the morning. Looking at the teeth of your friend I digg what morphe’ wrote the other day- “you breathe in the moment. Not yesterday not tomorrow.”
	♥ 11:22am Mike W: Slits ’n Dub!
	♥ 11:23am tim from champaign (now washington): Nice Slits choice! I was hoping this was New Age Steppers at first I've never heard them
	♥ 11:23am Buckaroo: Wow, I had no idea this wasn't originally a Massive Attack song...
	♥ 11:25am Trouble: @buckaroo it is a song made famous by reggae legend john holt
	11:26am sphere: that intersection of Jamaican dub, punk, and new wave in the early 80s was real interesting.
	♥ 11:26am paddy in matawan: lol this is cool
	♥ 11:27am Andrea: Also re mediations, there are so many good zoom opportunities now that also create nice sanghas: www.bhumisparsha.org www.dharmapunxnyc.com... www.buddhistinquiry.org www.spiritrock.org...
	♥ 11:27am Pale Son: I'd say the real key to an effective meditation practice, whatever style one chooses, is to commit to actually doing it every day. Like exercise, it's really the regularity that holds all the power.
	♥ 11:28am Trouble: gracias@andrea!
	11:29am sphere: The dub version of Soft Cell's "Tainted Love/Where Did Our Love Go" is insane.
	♥ 11:29am People Like Us: There is something that you can do immediately and quickly too, and even doing it for 2 minutes will make a difference. Look up Pranayama. It's a very, very simple breathing exercise which has immediate effect, I think often more than trying to meditate, which is hit and miss if you're really stressed.
	♥ 11:29am Hubig Pie: Suavecito is groovycito
	♥ 11:30am Passaic River Blues: @sphere: oh man, I live for the dub cut of "Tainted Love"!
	♥ 11:31am tim from champaign (now washington): Suavecito is the jam!
	♥ 11:31am Trouble: maybe that should be my first remix: a dub version of tainted love? i'll give you credit Passaic!
	♥ 11:32am Trouble: thanks@peoplelikeus!
	♥ 11:32am paddy in matawan: Is a Soft Cell the same as a Padded Room?
	11:33am rich the greeb: This song got me boogalooing down northern Blvd!
	11:34am JohnnyBoy: OMG!! This show is absolutely spectacular today! @Trouble you never fail to rock my world!
	♥ 11:34am oshiwoshi: Clarence Wheeler - that stereo is bonkers
	♥ 11:34am steveo: right on!
	♥ 11:35am paddy in matawan: tight
	♥ 11:35am Trouble: gracias@johnnyboy!
	♥ 11:35am Andrea: ... sometimes the online sanghas just help create a container, to get in the habit of meditating. Many of those links have daily or weekly practice sessions and are very friendly. And if you feel awkward, like I do sometimes, you can have your camera off. :)
	♥ 11:40am People Like Us: for longterm wellbeing, it is very important to be part of a meditation group (sangha) as well as doing it alone
	♥ 11:42am oshiwoshi: For best meditation, buy a fisher-price happy apple and sit in a dark room - instant gamelan bliss
	11:42am headcleaner: just listening to, and continually learning from WFMU is a kind of a meditation. like the fact that quite often what's on isn't what you thought you wanted to hear... but ends up being exactly what you needed to hear
	♥ 11:43am PKNY: The original version of "Tresspasser" was comped by Stones Throw records --> en.wikipedia.org... The artist is Bad Medicine, out of Western NY (Syracuse - Rochester) I believe.
	11:43am ?: The internet says Bad Medicine did Trespasser.
	♥ 11:43am YETI BOB: Discogs says Trespasser was written by Arthur Lane. Then I found this: " Bad Medicine released “Trespasser,” on Enyx Records in 1974. In an old interview posted at Soulstacks.com, Arthur Lane explained the genesis of the track: “I recall distinctly in the winter of 1974 telling Richard [Clarke] how cool it would be to record a song called ‘Trespasser.’ I asked him to imagine the feeling he would have if someone were up to no good and trespassing on his property. So I said, ‘Richard, just transfer the intensity and rage you would have chasing this guy into a song called ‘Trespasser.'”
	11:44am headcleaner: "the day Paris stood still"
	♥ 11:45am YETI BOB: here's a whole blog post about the song funkatropolis.blogspot.com...
	♥ 11:45am Trouble: gracias@yeti
	♥ 11:47am Hubig Pie: Ms Simone has returned for her encore
	♥ 11:48am Trouble: mais oui! @ hubig pie
	11:48am rich the greeb: Who did this Nina remix?
	♥ 11:48am Mike W: I do absolutely support Nina Until It Feels Better as a program for living
	♥ 11:49am YETI BOB: @Rich - looks like it was Nickodemus - en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 11:49am YETI BOB: Sounds great but also very early-2000s
	11:49am rich the greeb: Thanks Bob!
	11:51am rich the greeb: lol exactly Bob full nostalgia for the big beat apex
	11:51am annette: @ oshiwoshi. just looked up the happy apple. there is even a show and tell video of sawing thru it to see how it works !
	11:51am Listening Out There: Very good program t'day, Host Trouble...
	♥ 11:51am Trouble: merci@listening...
	11:52am rich the greeb: Is this song about sexual dysfunction?
	♥ 11:52am Carmichael: Late Heya, Trubb and listeners. Great set list, especially the Yusef Lateef!
	11:52am rich the greeb: Asking for a friend
	11:52am annette: anyone catch that vitamin commercial with the Nina Simone track ? man, that sends me
	♥ 11:53am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Trouble. DJ Zoe has a spot on the Monday Wake 'n' Bake shows where she speaks about meditation.
	♥ 11:54am Trouble: gracias@ken.
	♥ 11:55am tim from champaign (now washington): Thanks Trouble!
	♥ 11:55am Trouble: thanks for listening and chatting today! i'm off to PT for my much improving wrist
	♥ 11:55am Gaylord Fields: Thanks for the loveliness, Trouble — I'm once again regretting that, thanks to my sleep schedule, you do only a one-hour show as far as I'm concerned.
	♥ 11:55am TDK60: Thanks, Trouble.
	♥ 11:55am Gaylord Fields: Also, glad you're on the mend!
	♥ 11:55am Andrea: thanks Trouble for always making it better!
	♥ 11:56am redbee: Thanks Trouble, lovely show today!
	♥ 11:56am YETI BOB: thanks for another good show! and we're all glad to hear that your wrist is healing up well.
	♥ 11:56am Josh Allen: good show. go bills
	♥ 11:57am HyperDose: Trouble and fun were had by all
	11:57am headcleaner: or the fact that there's a DJ named Trouble whose show, in fact, always spells the very opposite? that's a meditation
	♥ 11:59am TDK60: elbuort.
	♥ 12:00pm Passaic River Blues: Thank you, Trouble!
	♥ 12:00pm Phillippe Bastille: thanks Trouble
	♥ 12:00pm Snortley: 91.1 just went dead.
	♥ 12:00pm eºIºk: 91.1 down, 91.9 OK
	♥ 12:00pm Pale Son: Thanks so much! Great morning.
	♥ 12:00pm steveo: same
	12:01pm Sigurður: Thanks Trouble.
	12:01pm Toutevoix: thanks for the show and troubled friendly chats
	♥ 12:01pm steveo: thanks trouble!

Listener comments!
	♥ 9:01am Trouble: good morning sunny soon to be March modern world!
	♥ 9:01am LastVisibleDog: good morning
	♥ 9:01am HyperDose: Just wait, the hooligans are going to start pouring in!
	♥ 9:02am Strandlund: Good Morning Trouble and all you beautiful Modernaires...
	♥ 9:03am melinda: Morning all!
	♥ 9:03am Handy Haversack: Bright good morning, Trouble and all the Troubled.
	♥ 9:03am βrian: Bright morning!
	♥ 9:06am StringOFperils: Hello! March is near. Spring blossoms are soon. Shadows sound the retreat. It's going to be alright.
	♥ 9:06am alanr: Today's show will be in my ears, while I walk to buy a fresh mackerel at the Chinese supermarket, here in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. Unfortunately, the mackerel won't be able to enjoy it as much as I.
	♥ 9:07am Trouble: does anybody have suggestions for learning how to meditate? an app? a book? a web site?
	9:07am fm Mike: Trouble! Friends! Love this piece/peace!
	♥ 9:08am Trouble: or should i just enter a buddhist monastery?
	♥ 9:08am YETI BOB: Trouble: If you can do it, a meditation retreat
	9:09am uselysses: Morning all! Trouble, I've found that all the apps are at least okay about this - I personally enjoyed 10% happier the most in terms of guidance. There are a ton of classes and guided meditations but after the initial basics it's a subscription fee for access.
	♥ 9:09am Trouble: thanks @yeti: that is a long way off, at least until the end of school
	♥ 9:09am alanr: maybe this: kripalu.org
	♥ 9:09am zopa: How to Mediitae: A Practical Guide by Kathleen McDonald
	♥ 9:10am YETI BOB: IMO it's like exercise - you already know what to do, you just have to be motivated and stick with it. That's why being in a setting where other people are doing it too can help.
	♥ 9:10am Trouble: i read his book @ uselysses, enyoyed it, will look for that.
	♥ 9:10am zopa: oopps Meditate not Mediitae
	♥ 9:11am YETI BOB: Different strokes for different folks but I feel like I don't need a guide to lead me through meditation, but I often need a guide to lead me to meditation
	♥ 9:11am steveo: Good morning Trouble & all. Enjoying the vibe.
	♥ 9:11am LastVisibleDog: Never heard Bridget before...this is really nice.
	♥ 9:12am βrian: Many different styles of meditation, of course. I had a friend who really liked Vipassana. I did Zazen off and on for a decade. A roshi once described it as a "laboratory of pain," all the while smiling broadly.
	♥ 9:13am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I've watched a couple of interesting videos recently with people dishing on TM and how you don't really need to pay all that money for "the secret"
	♥ 9:13am YETI BOB: THE SECRET IS FREE!
	♥ 9:14am steveo: I like 'How to Sit' by Thich Nhat Hanh
	♥ 9:14am Shira: Haven't heard this one in a long time! It sounds great.
	♥ 9:14am EG_Astro: good morning everyone
	♥ 9:15am Webhamster Henry: Hello Modern World dwellers! You know, the hellos and thank yous on the WFMU chat board are very satisfying on an elemental level.
	♥ 9:16am Trouble: i'm reading 'Advice Not Given' by Mark Epstein right now. His books are fab. But I would like a little more guidance.o the irony
	♥ 9:16am StringOFperils: There is the Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centre on W. 24th St. in Manhattan, Trouble. Someone there can help you to understand meditation. There are one-off workshops I think. But TRUE, all of the 'secrets' are in you. I think it just takes daily practice: emptying your mind. Turning off the chatter. Go outside. Sit still. Listen to the birds.
	♥ 9:16am Trouble: merci @steveo; I will look for that
	♥ 9:16am Cal Zone!: Good morning! Really digging the opening set!
	♥ 9:16am melinda: love yusef lateef jazz flute
	♥ 9:17am Webhamster Henry: Shutting down the "monkey mind" is difficult!
	♥ 9:17am βrian: One nice feature of meditation: It's dirt cheap!
	♥ 9:17am dougseidel: Trouble: one easy task, that is not easy (for me anyway): can i remember to feel my feet on the ground? Where is my attention at??
	♥ 9:19am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Re: Monkey mind - a couple of years ago I made the decision to not look at _any_ devices for the first hour after getting up. I don't know that it made a huge difference but it did help. Reading The Wire or some poetry was way better for my brain than the headlines of the day.
	♥ 9:19am Yvang: And would be wise asking DJ Micah of Music Of Mind Control in order to avoid any potentially toxic organisation.
	♥ 9:19am Trouble: that's good advice @doug. gracias!
	♥ 9:20am StringOFperils: I think one of the conditions for peace seems to be to work thoughtlessly for others. The ego IS the monkey chatter. Being busy looking after stuff that is outside of you and what you think you look like to others. That's one path.
	♥ 9:20am melinda: @Woods I've done that a few times and it can help.
	♥ 9:20am YETI BOB: Vedanta Centre is a good suggestion. Even if you can't do a meditation retreat you can try to get in touch with other meditators. It will be easier if you are part of a group or community
	♥ 9:21am Trouble: thanks@yvang
	♥ 9:21am melinda: I've found slow breathing to be helpful.
	♥ 9:22am cosmic matrix: Good morning all! Hi melinda!
	♥ 9:23am cosmic matrix: No work this week; shut down 'cause of too many Covid employees...I'm hopefully getting tested today
	9:23am Slaboch: Lovin' this set!
	♥ 9:23am melinda: hey cosmic
	9:23am Arlene Stein: Dusty!!!
	9:23am Deborah: @Trouble: I was taught by some of the best (MA Holistic Health Studies, Post grad Center for Mind-Body Medicine and still learning). When I teach it depends on the purpose of the meditation. However, the work of Jon Kabat-Zinn (MBSR) is wonderful. I use the work of Tich Nhat Hanh a lot when I teach meditation. Really, just start by breathing in, breathing out. If a thought or emotion shows up, let it go or concentrate on it; your choice. There is so much but basically there is nothing. Sit. Breathe. Be.
	♥ 9:24am StringOFperils: Doing this radio show could be a form of meditation. The more you give , the more free you are, right? It feels good. And you're in THIS world, which is also right.
	9:24am Jesse Dorris: I was about to say what a beautiful show you're doing so far, Trouble, but now I have to lie back in bed and cry a little along with Dusty :)
	9:24am Deborah: Love this song!
	♥ 9:25am Trouble: stringofperils: i am on that path to the overmax, so i need to find another outlet for calm. trying to make sure students graduate from virtual high school during covid is sucking the life blood out of me
	♥ 9:26am cosmic matrix: ha, i consider work to be paid karma yoga meditation! and my teachers are little kids
	♥ 9:26am YETI BOB: I think they are lucky to have you as a teacher, Trouble
	♥ 9:26am cosmic matrix: ok into the morning bath i go!
	♥ 9:26am TDK60: Hi Trouble and WFMUers.
	♥ 9:26am Trouble: thank you @deborah! merci jesse doris!
	♥ 9:27am Pale Son: @Trouble Just seeing this meditation discussion. Different styles definitely work better or worse for different people. I personally put a lot of energy into Zen and mindfulness meditations with little success before trying TM decades later and noticing immediate results. I'd say you should be able to tell within a couple of weeks whether whatever you're trying is actually getting you anywhere.
	♥ 9:27am Mike W: Songs to soothe a troubled beast (my sensitive dog, on account of a fourth consecutive morning of Keystone Klutzes working on my leaky radiator)
	♥ 9:27am βrian: The idea of concentrating on a thought or sensation is interesting. I've had little demonic itches rear their bristly heads from time to time. Strangely, when I focused on them in a relaxed way, they flare but eventually recede into the ether. "Stay if you like," I'd say, But no.
	♥ 9:27am Trouble: that's good to hear @ pale son
	9:27am Toutevoix: @Trouble...try to spend 24h withuot speaking, listening then enter silent communication with others ( without miming like mime Marceau or theatrical drama to ask for salt or bread at the table...) could be an entrance to listening/meditation...well then in this distanciation period you might choose to shut down internet and communication devices from time to time ( me too teaching in distance on a laptop far away from my artschool ) well anyway have a gooooood morning there listening from Italy take care
	♥ 9:28am Trouble: grazie@toutevoix
	9:28am Deborah: @YETI BOB So true, much of the time! My grad teachers used to say "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear." It could be a person, or a nonhuman animal. A few trees have taught me so much. Well, this is getting esoteric. Waiting for the trolls.
	♥ 9:30am Mike W: Burn Trolls for Better Meditative States
	9:31am Toutevoix: the dumbest thing would be entering a burnout working by yourself on your own in the distance alone with a computer without limitating yourself....crazy days I see friends almost making burnout teaching on internet....one as to learn how to stop the machine! SLOW DOWN and spend more time cooking watching listening whatever, my advice would be even if you live in a city everybody should GROW PLANTS and vegetables the period of seminating is coming right nowww ))) take care green ears
	♥ 9:32am Ken From Hyde Park: Pour water into a glass. Add an ice cube. Watch it slowly melt away. Imagine tension and anxiety melt away with it. When you've had enough, drink the water and imagine the benefits of water intake. Thankfulness that we have access to clean water; so many do not these days.
	♥ 9:32am Mike W: I’m also appreciating all the talk because after years of slipping away from mindfulness meditation I’ve been trying to make TM a daily thing (having gleaned aspects of the “secret” online — just, select a mantra for yourself rather being assigned one? can anyone confirm that is the shape/size of the TM secret?)
	♥ 9:32am Mike W: Nice one @Ken From HP
	♥ 9:33am YETI BOB: my mantra is WADAYAGUNADU - it works great for me
	♥ 9:33am StringOFperils: Ahh, Trouble. It sounds like you're under considerable duress. It can't be at all easy to nudge high school students forward these days (or any other days). And then there's the 'news cycle'. And the environment. And the etc etc etc. I think Ken has the right idea. It sounds funny, but there isn't much more to it than that.
	♥ 9:33am steveo: beautiful set
	♥ 9:33am Handy Haversack: Ken, I tend to do my thinking on that topic while making cocktails, but the spirit (so to speak!) is there.
	♥ 9:34am βrian: Regarding cooking, when I get up in the morning I wonder "What's for dinner?" Then I can slowly involve myself over the course of the day.
	♥ 9:34am Roberto: Technically, shouldn't that be "this is This is the Modern World?"
	♥ 9:35am βrian: Chop wood, carry water, soak beans.
	♥ 9:35am Handy Haversack: Ha, me, too, βrian! Though I think my results are not as impressive as yours ...
	♥ 9:35am dougseidel: using a different mouth?
	♥ 9:35am Irene Trudel: You're sounding just fine, Trouble. Great opening set as usual, BTW.
	9:35am Martinibomb: @trouble sounds like your computer is accidentally using your built-in computer Mic rather than the USB
	♥ 9:35am βrian: Ah, we've had some good laughs at my culinary misfires.
	9:36am sphere: hullo
	9:36am Martinibomb: As Irene says though you sound fine so don't worry about it right now.
	♥ 9:36am Ken From Hyde Park: @Handy - Indeed. I should have added (* substitute alcohol, if desired) to my spiel.
	♥ 9:37am Trouble: mic problem fixed! o lordy...
	9:37am Toutevoix: @Ken in the miw water & ice cube in glass fits very well with PASTIS 51 then the sun will share your mediation moment... south france speciality pouring pastis, doin' the less you can ahhhh less is more close to the sea
	♥ 9:37am YETI BOB: @Toutevoix: great advice. I'm in the city but I grow plants on the deck and windowsill and it helps a lot. I had some sourdough rising overnight and now it's time to knead it and form the loaf - so, stepping away from the keyboard for a while.
	♥ 9:38am βrian: @Toutevoix: I detect the scent of rosemary in the breeze. ... and thyme.
	9:39am Davefrom Brooklyn: Hey,we're in trouble again! Lucky for us.
	♥ 9:39am eºIºk: You were completely audible and understandable, even if the acoustics were not 100% cromulent (i.e. you sounded a little wee bit like you were halfway inside a metal filing cabinet).
	♥ 9:39am StringOFperils: Any minute now I have to become one with the kitty litter box until we're pure again.
	9:40am Mike In S. Jersey: Nothing better than "Irene Approved" - go with it!
	♥ 9:40am Handy Haversack: Sounds like you've got the inside scoop, SOp.
	♥ 9:40am HyperDose: But will the revolution be televised?
	♥ 9:40am Trouble: omg! i am not made for this modern digital world
	♥ 9:41am StringOFperils: All the poop that's fit to print ( on the inside of the trash can).
	9:41am Toutevoix: @Yeti of course a Yeti needs nature around him, then some plants have real impact on cleaning air around you if like me you stay in a flat poluuted by the fuckin city around you, it can help feel a little better and breathe then you can seminate in boxes some vegetables I can insure you zucchini grows like nothing even in the city
	♥ 9:41am steveo: i'm grateful for the wfmu remote broadcasts and will gladly suffer the occasional muffledness
	♥ 9:41am Roberto: Well, except for the nonbinary/gender-fluid. I guess those are "siblings?"
	9:42am Deborah: As a college prof suffering teaching online, I have to agree about the stress level and the agonies associated with both online and remote teaching. I got to the point where I had to pull back a little. Students will have to wait a day or two longer to get their work back; I will have to make choices which courses I will teach and which I will no longer. Starting this week, actually. All will survive without our continual attention.
	♥ 9:43am βrian: Our lovely knucklehead of a cat used to lounge in the litter box once it was cleaned. He's lost that habit, thankfully.
	♥ 9:44am Roberto: Has anyone else noticed that rescue cats on display at pet stores often sleep in their litter boxes?
	♥ 9:45am B R M: I have to get on these Ace Records comps... too many good records. argh.
	♥ 9:45am Andrew Waterloo: From experience, rabbits tend to sleep in their litter boxes after a trip to the vet
	♥ 9:45am βrian: Ours was a flea-bitten alley cat. He still thinks downspouts are the proper way to be watered.
	♥ 9:46am TDK60: I started trying meditation recently. No guidance, I just sit for 15-20 min., relaxing, focusing on breathing. I notice all my chatty thoughts inside and try to focus back on the breath.
	♥ 9:47am Handy Haversack: Trouble, I wouldn't have noticed the mic issue if you hadn't called it out. As steveo says, just getting to hear you and all the other DJs at all is a gift. We are not sweating the small stuff.
	9:48am Toutevoix: @HyperDoze the revolution wasn't in television...might not happen either inside a digitalized world of telecomm... but maybe it can happen growing plants ( and building a project for a civilization of naked people of course ahah naked people can't make war don't they...?)
	♥ 9:48am Trouble: i was talking to the back of the mic! the mic cover obscured the fact: hysterical

	9:51am wenzo llc.: this set is fire yeeooo!!!
	♥ 9:52am HyperDose: @Toutevoix Luckily my town and the surrounding ones have had community gardening & compost programs for years now. Like new seeds taking root, hoping it spreads to other areas!
	♥ 9:52am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Toutevois: I wish I was the kind of person who liked to garden.
	9:53am Toutevoix: Ron Finley, but if you search about how to grow plants books reviews stores that can send you seeds directly home... you realise it's really simple and a great GREAT GREAT satisfaction spread spread spread & share...if you can care a plant you can love and may change something about your quotidian life....ZUCCHINI POWER
	9:54am Toutevoix: seems plants appreciate a lot listening wfmu too ))
	♥ 9:55am YETI BOB: Japanese Eggplant was very productive and delicious for me last summer! Will do that again.

	♥ 9:56am Pale Son: Glad you solved the mic mystery, Trouble!
	♥ 9:57am Phillippe Bastille: good morning
	♥ 9:58am HyperDose: When I was a kid we got lumber delivered and built our own plots in the backyard. Growing your own food is empowering. Hopefully they'll put some of that marijuana money into schools so kids can learn actual life skills like gardening, cooking, music. Oh and infrastructure. NJ's roads are trash.
	♥ 9:58am TDK60: I saw an article recently that said certain house plants are better for cleaning home air than others. (Sorry forget where I saw.)
	9:59am Toutevoix: @Rick from SC good to begin in this period beans then chili peppers potates then april ZUCCHINI Basilic salads cuncumbers......of course if you have a garden and some space someplace ...
	♥ 10:01am Handy Haversack: Morning, Phillippe!

	10:02am Toutevoix: Grass plants euhhh succulents? then clean just put some in your area and bathroom some can clean some bad stuff like...furniture are full of glue and recompose woods then air in the city.....aloe & ficus some of them depollute? seems ... anyway
	♥ 10:02am Rick from SC: @toutevoix, I have lots of seeds, plenty of space, but not enough time.
	10:03am Toutevoix: habaneros i'd like to taste, here we have different variety don't know there names only the scale of strong or sweet...
	♥ 10:03am StringOFperils: These Thursday morning sets have been excellent. They evoke 'enough time'.
	♥ 10:04am LastVisibleDog: I hope my students are doing this!
	♥ 10:04am steveo: haha; excellent tip
	♥ 10:04am Handy Haversack: YB, I'm going to e-mail you for some advice on starting to actually grow things -- peppers, tomatoes, beans. You should, er, pretend I know nothing!
	♥ 10:04am Pale Son: Ha ha! Could happen to anyone.
	10:04am Toutevoix: you don(t have time but but but you can spend a week end to put those seeds in boxes then for the zucchini...you have nothing to doooooo only water and be regular rick rick let's try rick'n'roll
	♥ 10:04am βrian: We did a bunch of dilly beans last year, and two quarts of pickled carrots. And lots of tomatoes, though we have to pick those elsewhere.
	10:05am JohnnyBoy: You are indeed a gem. So good to hear you clearly once again haha!
	♥ 10:05am LastVisibleDog: @Handy - here in LA the weather is so nice I'm taking a chance and planting some tomatoes and peppers I grew up from seeds. We'll see.

	10:07am Slaboch: This is the pandemic anthem at our house!
	♥ 10:08am Trouble: good one@slaboch!
	10:08am Toutevoix: @full metal monkey frank maybe was really high...or too much habit didn't even take alook at the mic or was turning his back to the audience....wondering )))
	♥ 10:08am Handy Haversack: Ha, Toutevoix, no, I'm the one who needs the advice!
	♥ 10:08am TDK60: Great to hear Simone. (The Give the Drummer stream's DJ Stork show did a Nina S. special on Sun. Feb. 21.)
	♥ 10:08am StringOFperils: In the event that anyone's interested in a lovely great deal of Nina Simone's output (courtesy of Drummer stream's Stork): wfmu.org...

	♥ 10:11am full metal monkey: @toutevoix. No I was actually back stage. I work in production. It was at the garden state arts center in no. Along time ago. Stage manager went on stage and handed him a new mic. With it facing the right way to save face. True story
	♥ 10:12am full metal monkey: Frank was a little tipsy
	10:12am Toutevoix: @ahah oki Handy: look at ron finley method the only I know in english actually but so many helps you can find on the web www.youtube.com... www.youtube.com... or just give it a try you can buy also grown up seeds of vegetables more simples Zucchini and tomatoes ....
	♥ 10:13am Yes: hello everyone
	♥ 10:14am Handy Haversack: Grazie mille, Toutevoix, YB!
	♥ 10:14am StringOFperils: Glad Nina Simone's getting so much love on WFMU. 'The truth will out.'
	10:14am Toutevoix: @ full metal monkey wow crazy, indeed clever to react like that live on stage......
	10:16am sphere: @ Toutevoix Your stage manager was a consummate pro.
	10:16am sphere: sorry--@ full metal monkey
	♥ 10:17am full metal monkey: @toutevoix. Yeah well someone should of thrown up the red flag when Frank was trying to open a tick tac pack upside down 5 minutes earlier before taking the stage.
	10:18am sphere: @ full metal monkey - When did that event happen?
	10:18am Toutevoix: ups and downs in a life of a star... singing was good? enough tick tacks?
	10:19am aaronfromMI: didn't expect to tune into wfmu this morning and cry, but here I am.
	10:19am Toutevoix: we are all crying together aaron welcome
	♥ 10:20am Trouble: i'm with you @aaronfromMI.
	♥ 10:20am full metal monkey: @sphere well I’m guessing because it was so so long ago. Maybe early 90’s. Late 80’s
	10:20am Toutevoix: except about Frank Sinatra's mic, a good laugh
	♥ 10:21am full metal monkey: @sphere. It was the last show he did at the garden state arts center. When it was the garden state arts center
	♥ 10:22am Mike W: “Day and Night” was a regular dancefloor jam for me when i DJed regularly, thanks for reminding me of its unique swing
	♥ 10:22am full metal monkey: You know what the crowd thought it was a bad mic. When his voice suddenly boomed with the new mic the crowd cheeered.
	♥ 10:22am PaulRobeson1920: Goood morning from Sheepshead Bay.
	10:23am Toutevoix: fans...
	10:25am Toutevoix: the stage manager for sure had some critics about his job from some fans then he wouldn't say nothing and saved the face of a star twice...
	10:25am Toutevoix: anyway thanks for sharing !
	♥ 10:26am TDK60: Good morning Paul Robeson1920, way down there.
	♥ 10:27am full metal monkey: @toutevoix. Lol there were a lot of people around the stage that witnessed it and knew about it.
	10:28am aaronfromMI: Most of the snow has melted in Philly. Going to be close to 50 degrees today.
	10:29am Slaboch: Wow! Never heard that Claudine Longet song before, so great!
	♥ 10:30am Trouble: claudine had some crazee gems...
	10:31am Toutevoix: reminds me of Elvis laughing performing live toniiiight with his chorist....those end of career kind of silly moments
	♥ 10:32am Trouble: jealous@aaron... we still have mountainous piles of it here. without the charm of switzerland.
	10:34am aaronfromMI: @trouble, not much charm left in the small piles of snow in Philly. Actually, not much charm here at all! The sunshine is helping, however.
	10:34am Toutevoix: are you lonesoooooome tonight? laughing version which is not quite the moodof the show just right now but why not... ))

	10:35am Dragoicho: I'm playing all of this through reverb and the windows are open, c'est parfait
	♥ 10:35am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): It has been warm up here. The ugly "under-snow" has been revealed.
	♥ 10:36am TDK60: P.R.1920- I was sayin' "down there" as I live far far north, up in Washington Heights. Hee.
	♥ 10:37am Handy Haversack: The sidewalk piles are mostly gone here, so the dog-poop and cigarette-butt caches are beginning to wash away ... into the river. Sorry, ocean.

	♥ 10:40am Josh Allen: good morning and go bills

	11:07am stingy d: i went to the golding institute a long time ago to get my relaxation affairs in order
	♥ 11:08am Trouble: will do@ people like us! gracias
	11:08am Mark Williams: @TDK60 - that was a "title" that at some point over the years just sort of happened, when it was clear that generations of DJs/toasters had been spawned from what he had popularized. Not sure when exactly, but I'm guessing after the '80s.
	♥ 11:08am Listener Gregory: I went to the gelding institute to get my relaxation affairs in order.
	11:10am headcleaner: From what I understand, the key to finding a successful meditation pose is to try not to look like you're not meditating
	♥ 11:12am tim from champaign (now washington): I was just listening to a Fania comp in the car on my way to work!
	11:12am headcleaner: (or rather, simply "to look like you're not meditating") - should have meditated before typing that
	♥ 11:14am Andrea: ...Or you can just lay down and space out with Alice Coltrane... I like that too.

	♥ 11:20am PaulRobeson1920: A longg walk is good; or playing a sport vigorously, will put you in the moment. Knitting, Crocheting... Oh, washing your hands, brushing your teeth. Making the bed in the morning. Looking at the teeth of your friend I digg what morphe’ wrote the other day- “you breathe in the moment. Not yesterday not tomorrow.”
	♥ 11:22am Mike W: Slits ’n Dub!
	♥ 11:23am tim from champaign (now washington): Nice Slits choice! I was hoping this was New Age Steppers at first I've never heard them
	♥ 11:23am Buckaroo: Wow, I had no idea this wasn't originally a Massive Attack song...
	♥ 11:25am Trouble: @buckaroo it is a song made famous by reggae legend john holt
	11:26am sphere: that intersection of Jamaican dub, punk, and new wave in the early 80s was real interesting.
	♥ 11:26am paddy in matawan: lol this is cool
	♥ 11:27am Andrea: Also re mediations, there are so many good zoom opportunities now that also create nice sanghas: www.bhumisparsha.org www.dharmapunxnyc.com... www.buddhistinquiry.org www.spiritrock.org...
	♥ 11:27am Pale Son: I'd say the real key to an effective meditation practice, whatever style one chooses, is to commit to actually doing it every day. Like exercise, it's really the regularity that holds all the power.
	♥ 11:28am Trouble: gracias@andrea!
	11:29am sphere: The dub version of Soft Cell's "Tainted Love/Where Did Our Love Go" is insane.
	♥ 11:29am People Like Us: There is something that you can do immediately and quickly too, and even doing it for 2 minutes will make a difference. Look up Pranayama. It's a very, very simple breathing exercise which has immediate effect, I think often more than trying to meditate, which is hit and miss if you're really stressed.
	♥ 11:29am Hubig Pie: Suavecito is groovycito
	♥ 11:30am Passaic River Blues: @sphere: oh man, I live for the dub cut of "Tainted Love"!

	♥ 11:35am Trouble: gracias@johnnyboy!
	♥ 11:35am Andrea: ... sometimes the online sanghas just help create a container, to get in the habit of meditating. Many of those links have daily or weekly practice sessions and are very friendly. And if you feel awkward, like I do sometimes, you can have your camera off. :)
	♥ 11:40am People Like Us: for longterm wellbeing, it is very important to be part of a meditation group (sangha) as well as doing it alone
	♥ 11:42am oshiwoshi: For best meditation, buy a fisher-price happy apple and sit in a dark room - instant gamelan bliss
	11:42am headcleaner: just listening to, and continually learning from WFMU is a kind of a meditation. like the fact that quite often what's on isn't what you thought you wanted to hear... but ends up being exactly what you needed to hear
	♥ 11:43am PKNY: The original version of "Tresspasser" was comped by Stones Throw records --> en.wikipedia.org... The artist is Bad Medicine, out of Western NY (Syracuse - Rochester) I believe.
	11:43am ?: The internet says Bad Medicine did Trespasser.
	♥ 11:43am YETI BOB: Discogs says Trespasser was written by Arthur Lane. Then I found this: " Bad Medicine released “Trespasser,” on Enyx Records in 1974. In an old interview posted at Soulstacks.com, Arthur Lane explained the genesis of the track: “I recall distinctly in the winter of 1974 telling Richard [Clarke] how cool it would be to record a song called ‘Trespasser.’ I asked him to imagine the feeling he would have if someone were up to no good and trespassing on his property. So I said, ‘Richard, just transfer the intensity and rage you would have chasing this guy into a song called ‘Trespasser.'”
