	11:56am Franco Twinkie: Oh, I got the impression you had to concentrate on looking busy.

	12:01pm Eric Kilkenny: ^Vote now
	12:02pm Mr Fab: Ipanema!
	12:07pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Absolutely, Ipanema!
	12:08pm MrCrispy: Yoooooooo!!!
	12:08pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Pizza parlors in the 80s had the best video game cabinets.
	12:10pm Otis: They sure did Hopey. A local Round Table Pizza was my weekend go-to in junior high.
	12:11pm Eric Kilkenny: I miss the combo Pizza/Arcade Parlors!!!
	12:12pm Eric Kilkenny: Helloooooo MrChrispy!
	12:12pm MrCrispy: All I hear in my head is "Bing Bing Bing-Bing Bing"
	12:14pm Mr Fab: We have a restaurant near us called The One Up that's packed with classic video games. We held Lil Fab's birthday party there last year, just before the covid shutdown. Food is slightly more upscale than jr high pizza AND they have a bar. Who's up for drunken Centipede?!?
	12:15pm Otis: I miss my Atari 2600 rollerball controller from like 1985 at home.
	12:15pm Eric Kilkenny: @Fab that place looks cool! Yeh that's the new format Retrobarcade
	12:16pm Otis: The centipede home controller. Pour the beers Fab, I'm up for drunken Centipede!
	12:16pm Eric Kilkenny: you can get a usb roller controller and mame for your PC! @Otis
	12:17pm Otis: We have a really cool place in Montreal, North Star Pinball that now rents machines. Next door to The Wiggle Room Burlesque. Yea, I miss those 2 spots. Again, one day.
	12:18pm Listener Robert: Any of you as children ever aspire to build a simple mechanical pinball table, just pins, balls, and holes, no flippers, no electricity? Every actually do it?
	12:18pm Otis: Ha, no games on my PC. I'll get too diverted from work/projects... but we are looking at getting a console soon, Nintendo Switch.
	12:19pm Eric Kilkenny: @ListenerROBERT Me! :-D I'm totally into it right now I haven't built one yet
	12:20pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Oh Otis, the Switch is a great little console. I play games on PC and Playstation but love my Switch the best.
	12:20pm Otis: Pics of the coolest local joint in MTL - www.northstarpinball.com...
	12:20pm Eric Kilkenny: oh wait I've built cardboard ones which are pretty much what you're talking about @Robert there's also some cardboard pinball kits out there that are cool!
	12:21pm MrCrispy: Wait, vinyl's back?! I have vinyl!!
	12:21pm Otis: I'm waiting for the Vectrex Game Console to come back.
	12:22pm Listener Robert: The shoebox-and-marbles type that kids have traditionally made is probably what you mean by the cardboard kits. I was thinking about wood, requiring a good deal more commitment.
	12:22pm Eric Kilkenny: @Otis I've been hearing about that place from pinball podcast/twitch stream stuff we have 2 super cool places here wedgehead and next level which has like 400 pinball machines!
	12:23pm MrCrispy: Glad to hear I'm not the only one still hiding out, feels like it
	12:24pm Otis: Ha, not that many machines at North Star but a good dozen machines and a nice place to have a few beers with friends. Looking forward to that again.
	12:25pm Listener Robert: I might've gotten into woodwork like that, but I got into fireworking instead.
	12:25pm Otis: Yea, I have a song I'll start with to welcome you back Eric on FP.
	12:26pm Otis: Ipanema
	12:26pm Otis: Nice 30min segment! Keep 'em coming.
	12:26pm MrCrispy: I'm gonna vote for Alley Cat because we played that in middle school orchestra!
	12:28pm Eric Kilkenny: +2 for Impanema +1 for Alley Cat
	12:28pm Mr Fab: So far- Ipanema: 3 votes Alley Cat: 1 vote
	12:28pm Listener Robert: MrCrispy, have you heard Neil Cicierega's "Born to Cat"? Too bad he didn't call it "Run in the Alley with a Cat".
	12:31pm Mr Fab: Ipanema: 3 votes - me, Hopey, Otis
	12:31pm solo mon: Alley cat!!!!
	12:31pm MrCrispy: Solo Mon to the rescue!!!
	12:34pm MrCrispy: @ListenerRobert just listened to all 43 seconds of it - genius!
	12:38pm Otis: Payback, the big
	12:39pm Mr Fab: Ha, thanks Otis - I was just wondering "what's that sample, i totally know it from somewhere?!"
	12:40pm Otis: One of my fav James Brown records.
	12:41pm Eric Kilkenny: he did one other rework of it maybe I'll play em both
	12:42pm Otis: 'that ain't (no it is on medium cool) right!'
	12:42pm MrCrispy: Ok, I've been researching Alley Cat - written by Dutch pianist Frank Bjorn whose stage name was Bent Fabric. I mean come on!
	12:43pm Otis: Nice. Shakin' James like the legendary 12" Feelin' James! Gotta search Nick Bike out now.
	12:43pm Eric Kilkenny: I like this Nick Bike dude I've heard a few things from him all great
	12:44pm Otis: Bookmarked his Soundcloud, thanks much.
	12:45pm Krys O.: Bent Fabric was HUGE when I was little.
	12:47pm Mr Fab: McCrispy, did you hear "Stop Hitting Yourself" yesterday? I think DJ Spacebrother played two versions of "Alley Cat."
	12:49pm Eric Kilkenny: if spacebro was here he'd vote for alley cat!
	12:49pm Krys O.: Alley Cat won a Grammy for Best Rock and Roll Recording. I recall dancing to it in gym class en masse sort of like the way we had to square dance in gym which I learned many years later was linked to white supremacists.
	12:52pm MrCrispy: @MrFab no I missed it, do you remember which versions?
	12:54pm Franco Twinkie: I was in the other room sorting photos and I heard the voice of Wimpy!
	12:54pm Mr Fab: No sorry, was one version. by country guitarist Chet Atkins
	12:55pm MrCrispy: @Krys O that doesn't surprise me that gym square dancing was a white supremacist plot - I always felt uncomfortable with it but it was mostly because I had to get that close to girls
	12:56pm MrCrispy: I looooove Chet Atkins! His album of Beatles covers is a favorite
	12:56pm Eric Kilkenny: @Franco for you!
	12:58pm Franco Twinkie: I'm such an easy mark, you people know how to get my attention.
	1:03pm Franco Twinkie: I really need to get dressed and leave the house, but nothing out in the god forsaken world will be as entertaining as this show.
	1:03pm Eric Kilkenny: Any last votes for Impanema, Alley Cat or Cast your fate? Currently +3 Impanema +2 Alley Cat
	1:07pm Krys O.: I love Cast Your Fate, but I'll vote for Alley Cat.
	1:07pm Franco Twinkie: I get chief, as in "What do want on your hamburger chief?"
	1:08pm MrCrispy: I'm muted in a Zoom meeting but still listening, high 5 Krys O!
	1:08pm Krys O.: Square dancing was supposed to counter the influence of Black culture and music on America's youth. LOL!
	1:14pm MrCrispy: I'm actually ok with listening to All In The Family
	1:14pm Franco Twinkie: Kris, I remember seen these two people square dancing reflective stickers in El Monte, which was a stronghold of Nazis and all sorts of hillbilly types when I was a kid. It just dawned on me that in was code signaling.
	1:14pm zzzm: alleycat!
	1:15pm MrCrispy: @zzzm!!!!!
	1:15pm solo mon: Yay!!!!! Alley catz!!
	1:16pm Mr Fab: Stop the steal!
	1:16pm zzzm: yay! my voice heard
	1:16pm MrCrispy: I'm trying not to laugh during this Zoom meeting but I'm loving this!
	1:17pm Mr Fab: Yeah, ALley Cat is already pretty boogie-woogie. an Ipanema boogie-woogie would be a real genre-clash.
	1:17pm Krys O.: HA!
	1:19pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Had to attend a meeting and just caught the end of Alley Cat.
	1:19pm MrCrispy: MR Fab you make an excellent point and now I feel bad about my vote
	1:21pm Krys O.: Used to listen to my brother's typing lesson LP at parties. I think my older sibs and cousins were stoned. It used to crack them up.
	1:21pm Franco Twinkie: If only I had used this record when I first started typing. I'm putting on my pants now.
	1:22pm Eric Kilkenny: Don't forget pants, very important.
	1:26pm MrCrispy: Is that the Tarzan Saturday morning cartoon from late 70s?
	1:29pm Krys O.: Tarzan TV with Ron Ely?
	1:31pm Eric Kilkenny: Yes indeed! the Tarzan I grew up with
	1:31pm Eric Kilkenny: It's the Ron Ely 68 Tarzan Live Action which I freaking loved when I was a little kid
	1:33pm MrCrispy: The older Johnny Weismuller ones were filmed a half hour from where I grew up in FL (at Silver Springs)
	1:34pm Eric Kilkenny: ^And I dated a girl who's grandmother dated him
	1:35pm Krys O.: Yeah, that Tarzan series is tied in my memories with Daktari.
	1:35pm Otis: Daktari, recently picked up the soundtrack, so very good. Gotta watch the show now.
	1:38pm Franco Twinkie: Is Daktaki even a real word or just pretend jungle talk?
	1:39pm Franco Twinkie: Dock - Tar - Ee.
	1:40pm Krys O.: OMG, now I'm thinking of Maya with Jay North.
	1:40pm suzyhotrod: Hey Eric! I'm not normally at my desk at this time, what a great coincidence that its your big return show. Welcome back!
	1:41pm Franco Twinkie: A doctor who took care of sick animals I seem to remember. You know, a white guy who was treated like a magic man.
	1:41pm zzzm: was fun to be sided wiz solomon. thanks
	1:44pm Jan Turkenburg: Thansk Eric, good to have you back!
	1:44pm suzyhotrod: NYC employees go back May 1. So this is the desk in my kitchen. Haha. YAY Pinball! I'll check out your archive. I missed it.
	1:46pm suzyhotrod: Hi Jan! I heard you did a Dutch freakbeat show that I still have to check out. but I plugged it on my show when I played a lil Dutch freaky.
	1:50pm Franco Twinkie: I was watching the news update on the screen embedded in the gas pump yesterday, and it said that Monday was the lowest positive count in L.A. county since the pandemic started. Which I take to mean I have to started putting on socks now.
	1:54pm Krys O.: Thanks, all for an enjoyable show and chat! Much appreciated.

	12:20pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Oh Otis, the Switch is a great little console. I play games on PC and Playstation but love my Switch the best.
	12:20pm Otis: Pics of the coolest local joint in MTL - www.northstarpinball.com...
	12:20pm Eric Kilkenny: oh wait I've built cardboard ones which are pretty much what you're talking about @Robert there's also some cardboard pinball kits out there that are cool!
	12:21pm MrCrispy: Wait, vinyl's back?! I have vinyl!!
	12:21pm Otis: I'm waiting for the Vectrex Game Console to come back.
	12:22pm Listener Robert: The shoebox-and-marbles type that kids have traditionally made is probably what you mean by the cardboard kits. I was thinking about wood, requiring a good deal more commitment.
	12:22pm Eric Kilkenny: @Otis I've been hearing about that place from pinball podcast/twitch stream stuff we have 2 super cool places here wedgehead and next level which has like 400 pinball machines!
	12:23pm MrCrispy: Glad to hear I'm not the only one still hiding out, feels like it
	12:24pm Otis: Ha, not that many machines at North Star but a good dozen machines and a nice place to have a few beers with friends. Looking forward to that again.
	12:25pm Listener Robert: I might've gotten into woodwork like that, but I got into fireworking instead.
	12:25pm Otis: Yea, I have a song I'll start with to welcome you back Eric on FP.
	12:26pm Otis: Ipanema
	12:26pm Otis: Nice 30min segment! Keep 'em coming.
	12:26pm MrCrispy: I'm gonna vote for Alley Cat because we played that in middle school orchestra!
	12:28pm Eric Kilkenny: +2 for Impanema +1 for Alley Cat
	12:28pm Mr Fab: So far- Ipanema: 3 votes Alley Cat: 1 vote
	12:28pm Listener Robert: MrCrispy, have you heard Neil Cicierega's "Born to Cat"? Too bad he didn't call it "Run in the Alley with a Cat".
	12:31pm Mr Fab: Ipanema: 3 votes - me, Hopey, Otis
	12:31pm solo mon: Alley cat!!!!
	12:31pm MrCrispy: Solo Mon to the rescue!!!
	12:34pm MrCrispy: @ListenerRobert just listened to all 43 seconds of it - genius!
	12:38pm Otis: Payback, the big
	12:39pm Mr Fab: Ha, thanks Otis - I was just wondering "what's that sample, i totally know it from somewhere?!"
	12:40pm Otis: One of my fav James Brown records.
	12:41pm Eric Kilkenny: he did one other rework of it maybe I'll play em both
	12:42pm Otis: 'that ain't (no it is on medium cool) right!'
	12:42pm MrCrispy: Ok, I've been researching Alley Cat - written by Dutch pianist Frank Bjorn whose stage name was Bent Fabric. I mean come on!
	12:43pm Otis: Nice. Shakin' James like the legendary 12" Feelin' James! Gotta search Nick Bike out now.
	12:43pm Eric Kilkenny: I like this Nick Bike dude I've heard a few things from him all great
	12:44pm Otis: Bookmarked his Soundcloud, thanks much.
	12:45pm Krys O.: Bent Fabric was HUGE when I was little.
	12:47pm Mr Fab: McCrispy, did you hear "Stop Hitting Yourself" yesterday? I think DJ Spacebrother played two versions of "Alley Cat."
	12:49pm Eric Kilkenny: if spacebro was here he'd vote for alley cat!
	12:49pm Krys O.: Alley Cat won a Grammy for Best Rock and Roll Recording. I recall dancing to it in gym class en masse sort of like the way we had to square dance in gym which I learned many years later was linked to white supremacists.
	12:52pm MrCrispy: @MrFab no I missed it, do you remember which versions?
	12:54pm Franco Twinkie: I was in the other room sorting photos and I heard the voice of Wimpy!
	12:54pm Mr Fab: No sorry, was one version. by country guitarist Chet Atkins
	12:55pm MrCrispy: @Krys O that doesn't surprise me that gym square dancing was a white supremacist plot - I always felt uncomfortable with it but it was mostly because I had to get that close to girls
	12:56pm MrCrispy: I looooove Chet Atkins! His album of Beatles covers is a favorite
	12:56pm Eric Kilkenny: @Franco for you!
	12:58pm Franco Twinkie: I'm such an easy mark, you people know how to get my attention.
	1:03pm Franco Twinkie: I really need to get dressed and leave the house, but nothing out in the god forsaken world will be as entertaining as this show.
	1:03pm Eric Kilkenny: Any last votes for Impanema, Alley Cat or Cast your fate? Currently +3 Impanema +2 Alley Cat
	1:07pm Krys O.: I love Cast Your Fate, but I'll vote for Alley Cat.
	1:07pm Franco Twinkie: I get chief, as in "What do want on your hamburger chief?"
	1:08pm MrCrispy: I'm muted in a Zoom meeting but still listening, high 5 Krys O!
	1:08pm Krys O.: Square dancing was supposed to counter the influence of Black culture and music on America's youth. LOL!
	1:14pm MrCrispy: I'm actually ok with listening to All In The Family
	1:14pm Franco Twinkie: Kris, I remember seen these two people square dancing reflective stickers in El Monte, which was a stronghold of Nazis and all sorts of hillbilly types when I was a kid. It just dawned on me that in was code signaling.
	1:14pm zzzm: alleycat!
	1:15pm MrCrispy: @zzzm!!!!!
	1:15pm solo mon: Yay!!!!! Alley catz!!
	1:16pm Mr Fab: Stop the steal!
	1:16pm zzzm: yay! my voice heard
	1:16pm MrCrispy: I'm trying not to laugh during this Zoom meeting but I'm loving this!
	1:17pm Mr Fab: Yeah, ALley Cat is already pretty boogie-woogie. an Ipanema boogie-woogie would be a real genre-clash.
	1:17pm Krys O.: HA!
	1:19pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Had to attend a meeting and just caught the end of Alley Cat.
	1:19pm MrCrispy: MR Fab you make an excellent point and now I feel bad about my vote
	1:21pm Krys O.: Used to listen to my brother's typing lesson LP at parties. I think my older sibs and cousins were stoned. It used to crack them up.
	1:21pm Franco Twinkie: If only I had used this record when I first started typing. I'm putting on my pants now.
	1:22pm Eric Kilkenny: Don't forget pants, very important.
	1:26pm MrCrispy: Is that the Tarzan Saturday morning cartoon from late 70s?
	1:29pm Krys O.: Tarzan TV with Ron Ely?
	1:31pm Eric Kilkenny: Yes indeed! the Tarzan I grew up with
	1:31pm Eric Kilkenny: It's the Ron Ely 68 Tarzan Live Action which I freaking loved when I was a little kid
	1:33pm MrCrispy: The older Johnny Weismuller ones were filmed a half hour from where I grew up in FL (at Silver Springs)
	1:34pm Eric Kilkenny: ^And I dated a girl who's grandmother dated him
	1:35pm Krys O.: Yeah, that Tarzan series is tied in my memories with Daktari.
	1:35pm Otis: Daktari, recently picked up the soundtrack, so very good. Gotta watch the show now.
	1:38pm Franco Twinkie: Is Daktaki even a real word or just pretend jungle talk?
	1:39pm Franco Twinkie: Dock - Tar - Ee.
	1:40pm Krys O.: OMG, now I'm thinking of Maya with Jay North.
	1:40pm suzyhotrod: Hey Eric! I'm not normally at my desk at this time, what a great coincidence that its your big return show. Welcome back!

	1:46pm suzyhotrod: Hi Jan! I heard you did a Dutch freakbeat show that I still have to check out. but I plugged it on my show when I played a lil Dutch freaky.
	1:50pm Franco Twinkie: I was watching the news update on the screen embedded in the gas pump yesterday, and it said that Monday was the lowest positive count in L.A. county since the pandemic started. Which I take to mean I have to started putting on socks now.
