	3:07pm brainiac: When I first saw the thumbnail, I didn't recognize the Buddha's right foot as being such. oriental-decor.com...
	3:08pm Tom from Stirling: Ja Wobble works with Brian Eno on occasion. Eno's BDay was this past Saturday.
	🍝 ♥ 3:10pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @brainiac weird buddha penis actually that 'fat buddha' is not the og shakyamuni buddha at all! en.wikipedia.org...
	🍝 ♥ 3:10pm ChukAmok: Wasn't it some famous movie in the '90's where the lead character famously said: "like is like a ravioli...you never know what you're gonna get".

	3:14pm queems: i met someone from texas once who didn’t know what baked ziti was and i got so irrationally angry
	🍝 ♥ 3:15pm Krys O.: YES!
	🍝 ♥ 3:15pm karlward: queems: several Texans here. What's baked ziti?
	🍝 ♥ 3:15pm ChukAmok: @Karlward I had a feeling that Mary Chapin Carpenter was somewhere in that mix.
	♥ 3:15pm tim from champaign (now washington): @RRN - now you're getting into 'Paul Is Dead' territory with theories like that! ;)
	3:15pm the noggin: yeh, buddy. got my swag over the weekend and a little sense of pride came with it too Hope all is well
	🍝 ♥ 3:16pm Baja Joe: Clicky-starred first 2 tunes. That's rare for me.
	3:16pm queems: @karlward if you have to ask you’ll never know
	🍝 ♥ 3:16pm karlward: Also there were only five Pet Shop Boys fans in Houston, TX in the 90s, and I knew the other four. We rolled deep to that one Erasure show. Deep.
	3:17pm ryansterlingvirtue: Great song
	♥ 3:18pm slugluv1313: good afternoon, Olivia! Ravioli Lovers! mostly in lurk mode -- working on stuff at home, but so happy to be here and listening with you all :) LOVING this Pet Shop Boys! ahhhh so perfect right now
	🍝 ♥ 3:18pm Krys O.: Tons of respect for Neil Tennant. Incredibly good songs.
	🍝 ♥ 3:18pm Handy Haversack: Nice, the noggin! I have definitely seen people post whose swag we packed up. I am hoping to maybe get back there on Friday, but work is looking ominous this week. karlward, maybe I'll make you my baked ziti some time.
	3:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: tim : Another way TheBeatles suffered from being so ahead of the curve: attracting Conspiracy whack-ohs...
	3:18pm brainiac: @queems: Hey! I just played that song by Vice Squad.
	🍝 ♥ 3:19pm bukowski.: hello raviolios!
	♥ 3:19pm Carmichael: Heya Olivia with one L and ravioli with one L.
	🍝 ♥ 3:19pm Jason from Houston: Baked ziti is the thing with gravy and Velveeta slices, right?
	3:20pm wizard frog: just discovered via the goggles - guacamole ravioli - holy moly!
	🍝 ♥ 3:21pm karlward: Jason, yeah, I think I know what you mean, the layer of beans on the bottom too
	🍝 ♥ 3:21pm ChukAmok: Baked ziti is a pasta too far, IMO.
	🍝 ♥ 3:22pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: how do i delete someone else's comment (@jasonfromhouston @chukamok)
	🍝 ♥ 3:24pm Jason from Houston: Now we're cooking for bae, karlward!
	🍝 ♥ 3:24pm Handy Haversack: BB QB JA, I am with you. We know the One True Way.
	🍝 ♥ 3:25pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @handy thank you for being the first to dissociate from the hated "BBQ JA" abbrev... barbecue josh allen
	🍝 ♥ 3:26pm Jason from Houston: Sorry Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen! No harm intended!
	🍝 ♥ 3:28pm Handy Haversack: Respect the arm, respect the legs, respect the ziti. Looks with desperate longing but a long since destroyed soul and ability to feel joy at Zach Wilson
	3:29pm brainiac: Waiting to see if the next artist played is in alphabetical order. YES!
	3:29pm Toutevoix: ((((((◍))))))
	🍝 ♥ 3:31pm karlward: Is BBQ ravioli..... a thing?
	🍝 ♥ 3:33pm bukowski.: wooooooo this is good
	3:34pm sphere: Knowing Americans, I am sure someone has merged BBQ and ravioli some time.
	🍝 ♥ 3:35pm steveo: Commenting live from Monty Hall! Sounds great! Tell Bruce I miss him :)
	3:36pm brainiac: I use foil to keep them from falling through the grill.
	3:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hm. Ravioli might lend itself to Dipping in Sauces... There was of course the great Pasta Chef Sitar Knife Murderer - Ravioli Shanker...
	3:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...another victim of the gig economy...
	3:39pm wizard frog: Sitaravioli
	3:39pm sphere: You could stuff ravioli with chopped brisket or chopped pork.
	3:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Raga Ragu... & you ?
	🍝 ♥ 3:40pm karlward: Jason From Houston: what's your position on this?
	♥ 3:40pm nathan: inside a cornbread pocket? or is it no longer ravioli at that point?
	♥ 3:41pm Phillippe: howdy
	🍝 ♥ 3:42pm Krys O.: Heading out for the commute home. Headphones on!
	3:42pm sphere: hey Phillippe :)
	🍝 ♥ 3:43pm Handy Haversack: nathan, that's a corn dog. Nice, steveo! Did you get the good tape gun? Hey, sphere, Phillippe! Safe home, Krys.
	♥ 3:45pm Phillippe: hey sphere, handy!
	3:46pm Eldan: ❤️
	🍝 ♥ 3:46pm Handy Haversack: Olivia, when I was in Monty Hall last week, I left a bag of Sweet Potato Steak Frites for Pony, Bruce, Sammy, Lola, et al. I know Michele said Pony has trouble with harder treats -- can you save a few for her? Thanks!
	♥ 3:47pm slugluv1313: ahhh Lydia <3 <3 <3
	♥ 3:48pm tim from champaign (now washington): What was the plane ride like, Olivia? I'm flying in early July. I'm expecting the worst. Overbooked flights, anti-mask jackasses, the whole deal.Hopefully, I'm wrong?
	♥ 3:48pm Rick from SC: Happy Monday all.
	♥ 3:48pm tim from champaign (now washington): I think 8 Eyed Spy is my favorite Lydia Lunch group.
	🍝 ♥ 3:49pm ChukAmok: Hey Phillipe! Hey Rick!
	🍝 ♥ 3:52pm listener james from westwood: This Lena Platanos is shaking off the rust!
	🍝 ♥ 3:52pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @tim i just flew down to north carolina on delta the other day and it was pretty fine. with 2 seats on each side of an aisle, they either paired you with whoever you bought your tickets with or sat you solo. no real fuss otherwise. as a vaccinated person tho i gotta admit i appreciate the relative laxity regarding masks in establishments down south. first time being inside a business without a mask in over a year feels pretty good. your mileage may vary!
	♥ 3:52pm Richy4619: ♫♪-._.-(◠౪◠) -.♫.-._.♫♪
	3:53pm brainiac: Flying from Sacramento to Chicago on Friday. Not looking forward to it at all.
	3:53pm Toutevoix: Lena Platanos j'aime bien, allez une étoile
	3:54pm AD: Yes please
	🍝 ♥ 3:54pm ChukAmok: @Brainiac Which airline? It seems Delta is still spacing people out, but AA is packing every jet they can.
	🍝 ♥ 3:54pm Handy Haversack: OK, the working, it must end. Perhaps easing into the drinking with a cider might be in order ...
	♥ 3:55pm nathan: i'm vaxxed and was in New Orleans last week... quite a culture shock going from being screamed at by an unmasked fratboy in a NoLa bar to being told to mask up while on the open-air top deck of the east river ferry
	🍝 ♥ 3:55pm ChukAmok: Not sure about JetBlue or Southwest...
	🍝 ♥ 3:56pm Handy Haversack: nathan, I have become an expert at inserting my beer can under my mask while riding the East River ferry!
	3:57pm Tom from Stirling: People look better with masks anyway. Right?
	♥ 3:57pm nathan: @Handy they must make custom ones with a builtin beer pouch... i need to investigate
	♥ 3:57pm tim from champaign (now washington): Thanks for the share BB QB JA. That sounds like a decent flight. I'm flying on Delta with my 2 young kids. WIth some restrictions being eased, I was picturing air travel turning into a free-for-all of all the worst behaviors.
	🍝 ♥ 3:58pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @nathan hah. yeah. it's weirdly cultural. my guideline is basically - does this business have a "wear a mask" sign? are the patrons wearing masks? not trying to stick out even more than my obviously new york ass already does. even in the same small town here (in tennessee), we just went to a small indoor fruit / homemade jam market type place where no one but employees were wearing masks, and then to a grocery store where basically everyone was.
	🍝 ♥ 3:58pm ChukAmok: Has anybody tried the beer can in a feedbag trick yet?
	3:58pm wizard frog: (¬_¬)
	3:58pm brainiac: @Chuck: Southwest. I find it the least onerous of the carriers.
	🍝 ♥ 3:58pm Niall: Hm, what's that bed playing under you, @Olivia? It's distressingly familiar, but I can't place it.
	🍝 ♥ 3:59pm Handy Haversack: I took the ferry home last week after being at the station, Wall St. to Greenpoint. Drank a cider on the top deck as a crescent Eid moon set over Manhattan. Good stuff.
	🍝 ♥ 3:59pm listener james from westwood: AMBUH.
	🍝 ♥ 3:59pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @tim it will be interesting to see when the airlines change their guidelines. i think that is a totally separate department and the federal guidelines still say masks
	3:59pm brainiac: "Umbah"
	3:59pm wizard frog: AMBUH - PASS DA RAVI-OLAH
	♥ 3:59pm paddy in matawan: Go see da gurlz down the connor.
	♥ 3:59pm tim from champaign (now washington): Man, I know I'm going to be sitting next to that bozo.
	♥ 4:00pm tim from champaign (now washington): Man, I know I'm going to be sitting next to that bozo.
	🍝 ♥ 4:00pm listener james from westwood: I don't have plans to fly until April 2022 and I'm planning to mask up if only to avoid the usual conference-travel cold I seem to get. I really enjoyed NOT getting the typical cold and/or flu this season.
	🍝 ♥ 4:01pm Niall: Stromboli ravioli.
	🍝 ♥ 4:01pm ChukAmok: @Brainiac Well, safe travels and try not to have a panic attack. I flew to NYC two weeks ago and it was a bit much going up, but the return was easier to cope with. Gotta get over that first post-pandemic flight, I guess.
	4:01pm nadidadi: Enchilada Ravioli
	🍝 ♥ 4:01pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @listenerjames im hoping one of the long term effects of this is a new cultural norm that when you are sick and in public, you wear a mask!
	4:01pm Tom from Stirling: Masks are much needed when the shoes come off. That's for sure. If you're vaxxed , you're safe. So don't worry.
	4:01pm nadidadi: Chicken Francese Ravioli
	♥ 4:02pm ヱkョ: “Ambuh!” LOL! One of the few good things about Bawston Rob is all the impressions of him by other people, esp. Rob C.
	🍝 ♥ 4:02pm ChukAmok: @Handy that sounds like a great ferry trip! When's your next time at the station?
	🍝 ♥ 4:02pm Ken From Hyde Park: Fonzarelli Ravioli
	4:02pm brainiac: Thanks, Chuck. I'm considering dropping a Valium on the way to the airport.
	4:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Guac is fine (I was Californian for some time) - but it must not be Cooked with the rest of it !
	4:03pm sphere: I think you have to keep ravioli in the Italian flavor arena, or else it starts to become something else.
	🍝 ♥ 4:04pm steveo: Absolutely horrific tape gun, Handy :)
	4:04pm nadidadi: Isn't ravioli just a mini, pasta-based enchilada tho?
	🍝 ♥ 4:04pm ChukAmok: @Brainiac Endorsed. I also took "medicine" before going through security and it definitely helped.
	4:04pm Tom from Stirling: Ravioli....all that cheese. Sheesh. Cheese. What is the big attraction with cheese anyway?
	🍝 ♥ 4:05pm Jason from Houston: I dunno, karlward. I am a plain cheese person myself. Collina's serves it up with the crema rosa sauce and that's my fave. Been a vegetarian for 20+ years so I am probably not gonna break edge on a BBQ ravioli. LOL
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...ok - guac in the sense of mashed avo ...not spices to clash with Italian ...there are garlic & pepper overlaps in continents...
	4:05pm sphere: @nadidadi - enchiladas are rolled up tortillas. ravioli are not.
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Tiny hermetic lasagnas.
	4:06pm brainiac: I always get pulled out of line for extra security check. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with my facial expression.
	♥ 4:06pm Rev. Turnip Druid: angel food cake contains neither angels nor (i would argue) food you may quote me
	4:06pm nadidadi: @sphere- well let's agree not to yuck each other's yums!
	4:07pm Tom from Stirling: @brainac: that's why you should wear a mask. At all times
	🍝 ♥ 4:07pm Jason from Houston: ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎
	🍝 ♥ 4:07pm Handy Haversack: @ChukAmok, Scott's in during the days this week, and I'm doubtful that I can get free now. If it happens, it will be Friday. This is one of those three-meetings-in-the-evenings weeks, too, consarnit. Hopefully next week looks clearer.
	4:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Don't get to fly much - but I did find security effective for finding the ONE penny still in my wallet. Which is really important for everybody... Shows the efficiency actually I suppose...
	4:08pm sphere: @ RTD: Nice to see you, Sir Turnip! If you claim that angel food cake is not food, you just took a whole class of junk food out of the running.
	4:08pm brainiac: Maybe I'll use 2. One for the top half and one for the bottom. I'm sure that won't attract unwanted attention.
	🍝 ♥ 4:09pm ChukAmok: @Handy I may be in on Friday 05/28. With any luck we'll be packing swag together.
	🍝 ♥ 4:09pm Handy Haversack: Angle food cake was displaced by Saxon food cake.
	🍝 ♥ 4:10pm ChukAmok: I would like to say that as a baker I only use the finest of angels in my cakes.
	4:11pm nadidadi: Still House Plants...woooow <333
	4:12pm Tom from Stirling: Still House Plants had too much ravioli. All that cheese. Not good for singing.
	♥ 4:12pm tim from champaign (now washington): I like this a lot!
	♥ 4:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid: if i remember correctly, angels were like warrior spirits that carried out terrifying feats of vengeance and rage on behalf of the bearded one .. in which case I'd love to eat one, actually. in a cake would be lovely.
	🍝 ♥ 4:12pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: yeah. this rules
	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wouldn't be shocked to learn there was some Enochian technique for putting Angelic essence into comestibles to keep European monarchs empowered...
	4:13pm nadidadi: @Tom If Mariah can do it on champagne and honey, I don't think the cheese thing is founded necessarily. @tim @Buffalo Bills-- IKR!!!
	🍝 ♥ 4:13pm Jason from Houston: SO FINE!!!
	4:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Transubstantiation in Communion is presumed after all...
	4:15pm brainiac: Today I learned a new acronym. Thanks, nadidad.
	4:15pm nadidadi: lol @brainiac, my pleaszsh.
	🍝 ♥ 4:16pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: three clicky stars in a row, that's a bingo!
	🍝 ♥ 4:16pm Handy Haversack: brainiac, you didn't know about Ish Kabibble's Rolodex?
	4:16pm nadidadi: @Revolution Rabbit, re: the process of singing after imbibing sticky things and Still House Plants/Mariah?
	4:17pm nadidadi: @Handy el oh el
	4:18pm brainiac: We just say bingo. @Handy: Archie Bunker always laughed at the mention of Ish Kabibble IIRC
	4:18pm Tom from Stirling: Is KeiyaA talking about ravioli?
	4:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...reproduce John Dee's famous sigil for Elizabeth Ist in frosting, for example : wfmu.org... nadidadi - I'm afraid I don't know what that means (my fault).
	4:21pm NikiA: happpppy 4:20 y'all
	🍝 ♥ 4:21pm Niall: @Revolution Rabbit: I once recorded a COIL pisstake called "The Sloop John Dee." It wasn't as good as its title, but I'll always have that title.
	4:22pm Yes: Hi yall. Just arrived
	🍝 ♥ 4:22pm Handy Haversack: Or the Sisters of Mercy's Fluddland.
	4:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Niall: So - we have Ceremonial Music ready.
	4:23pm Tom from Stirling: Is L'rain the same as L'Rain?
	♥ 4:24pm Phillippe: Hey ChukAmok! (sorry, behind on hellos...)
	🍝 ♥ 4:26pm Niall: Holy crap, I can't believe this BS. Well, easy enough to sing the educational praises of WFMU.
	4:26pm brainiac: I think we've all learned a valuable lesson about government today.
	♥ 4:26pm queems: i wrote my letter, i just need to proof read
	🍝 ♥ 4:27pm Handy Haversack: Here's the whole thing again: The city of Jersey City has asked WFMU to prove that its programming has educational value, as a condition of keeping its tax exemption. This is a serious matter to the financial health of the station. As part of this effort, we're asking our listeners to provide letters or emails explaining how and why WFMU's programming has not just entertained them, but has also provided educational value. The educational value can be related to the history and relationship between culture or ideas, or more direct value such as information about any matters of public importance. Tell us how you have gained knowledge through the time you have spent listening to WFMU. This is a serious effort to address an important disagreement WFMU is having with the city of Jersey City. Whether you are an educator, a student or merely a student of life, please help us out with a thoughtful letter or email, and please keep them to 300 words. Letters should address the City of Jersey City, and can be emailed to helpus@wfmu.org by May 28th. Thank you for your help.
	🍝 ♥ 4:27pm Niall: Have you considered just becoming a cult? We could probably listen to Music of Mind Control and satisfy two criteria for tax-exemption in one go.
	🍝 ♥ 4:27pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: i popped out and missed the first half of this PSA. is there some post online i could read about it
	🍝 ♥ 4:28pm Niall: Unglaublich.
	🍝 ♥ 4:28pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @handy thanks!!!!
	🍝 ♥ 4:28pm Baja Joe: I'm on it!!!
	♥ 4:28pm queems: so when addressing to jersey city, should we just write DEAR JERSEY CITY because that sounds kind of silly
	🍝 ♥ 4:28pm Handy Haversack: And peposting my comment from WAB: "So let's all put these thoughts in letters! If anyone hates writing and just can't stand the thought of putting together, 300 words, contact me through my profile and send me your bullet points or summary, and I'll draft a letter and send it back to you so you can submit it. Use this stupid master's degree for something worthwhile."
	4:28pm Tom from Stirling: Angel food cake is good. As is devil's food cake. And pie.
	♥ 4:29pm Rev. Turnip Druid: gather unto me your pies
	🍝 ♥ 4:29pm Handy Haversack: "To whom it may concern in the municipal government of the city of Jersey City:"?
	♥ 4:30pm ヱkョ: The pure musicological educational value alone is tremendous.
	4:30pm brainiac: I admire Handys brain.
	🍝 ♥ 4:30pm Handy Haversack: Also: *reposting^^ It's not a master's degree in being careful!
	♥ 4:30pm queems: also my letter is 124 words over
	4:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Probly self-evident - but thinking that we should resist the temptation to 'Punk Out' on this... Rather, we should pretend we are Going to Court... State your positions - but in formal even respectful language.
	♥ 4:30pm ヱkョ: @RRN63 speaks wisely on this matter
	♥ 4:30pm queems: maybe i should take out the part where i slam dunk on wfuv
	4:31pm brainiac: Not just his body.
	🍝 ♥ 4:31pm chris in the redwoods: agreed, RevRab and Ike.
	🍝 ♥ 4:32pm Ken From Hyde Park: I plan on learning more about Tuvan throat singing starting at 7PM tonight.
	🍝 ♥ 4:32pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: many of the programs are honestly like mini museums. so much music that would be otherwise lost and ignored
	4:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ' A fool has himself for a Lawyer. '
	♥ 4:33pm ヱkョ: @Niall@4:27 and @queems@4:30, ROTFL!!!!!! @queems, did you use BT’s old insult “strollercore” for them?!
	🍝 ♥ 4:33pm Handy Haversack: queems, use of "you money-grubbing bureaucratic monsters" doesn't count against the word limit. Reb Rab, 100 percent! And probably also downplay the "learning about the history of music" aspect for more firm social-good ground. I mean, why would taxocrats care about the history of music or see learning about it as a good? Cultural stuff, yeah. Techtonic concerns. The archive as public resource. History of radio as the medium of the people and a public good. brainiac, you should see my brain on my body's body! Wait.
	🍝 ♥ 4:34pm chris in the redwoods: lol, Ken. i actually mentioned Tuvan throat singing!
	♥ 4:34pm queems: @ike LOLLL no but that is dead on
	♥ 4:36pm slugluv1313: @Handy -- thanks for that! but geez, SO typical of Jersey City/Hudson County -- Heaven forbid something be truly educational :( in any case, glad i heard about this today -- gives me some time to put together something (i swear, even before COVID hit, my "communication skills" were seriously damaged) i have been listening to WFMU since 1977 (my first year in college!) -- and i swear, i still learn something new from FMU every freaking day
	♥ 4:37pm queems: what is the preferred format for these letters? pdf? body of email? animated gif?
	♥ 4:38pm Ryansterlingvirtue: These guys are the other half of Galaxie 500, right?
	♥ 4:38pm Ryansterlingvirtue: or should I say 2/3
	♥ 4:38pm olivia: queems, I believe just body of email is good! Thank you!
	🍝 ♥ 4:39pm chris in the redwoods: i also invited the readers of my letter to tune in to WFMU and see for themselves. its pretty clear that hasn't happened to date. sigh.
	♥ 4:39pm queems: perfect, thanks @olivia!
	🍝 ♥ 4:39pm Handy Haversack: (Like, I'm not sure how useful it is to talk about how modeling a completely independent, listener-supported business model against the corporate capitalism and cultural suicide of commercial radio and your entire rentier society, you money-grubbing bureaucratic monsters, might be the only thing that sets us free from the chains of hatred, violence, and oppression embodied by a government that serves only the wealthy and a corporate culture that treats the bodies and minds of Americans as so many cheap commodities. But it would feel good!)
	🍝 ♥ 4:39pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @ryan you're thinking of damon and naomi! chris and cosey are throbbing gristle
	♥ 4:39pm olivia: Means a lot to see everyone want to help us with this. <3
	♥ 4:40pm nathan: yeah, i want to write a letter, but i feel like I'm currently too mad about the whole thing to write anything but a string of expletives. I'll sleep on it.
	4:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Well - Music is Culture. & we sure as hell are Edumactated about here ! & Comments are Community even - & sure as hell Educational too ! I think that's legit - but solider the audience & purpose of what you're writing ! There's certainly quite a range of what WFMU presents & represents. & for so many of us. The uniqueness of FMU - even commercially - is also legit imho - since this is about Funding & tax status... FMU is - almost mostly - NonProfit. Why tax it ??
	4:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Geez massive typos ... But consider...
	🍝 ♥ 4:43pm Jason from Houston: ♫ ꒰ ॢ ꈍ ◡ ꈍ ॢ ꒱ ♫
	4:43pm sphere: Why is Jersey City doing this? Whatever happed to the rule "Cultural Enrichment = Education?" There must be some goddamn city bureaucrat flexing their muscles at WFMU or something.
	🍝 ♥ 4:44pm Handy Haversack: Real estate, sphere. Real estate near the waterfront in condo land.
	♥ 4:46pm Ryansterlingvirtue: @buffalo. Yes. Thanks!
	🍝 ♥ 4:47pm chris in the redwoods: it does smell of ruffled feathers, sphere, doesn't it. eek, i hope its not plain and simple corruption, Handy. yikes. nevertheless, its quite easy to prove WFMU is an educational institution, so lets all do that. :)
	♥ 4:47pm slugluv1313: hell yeah, Olivia! and yes, feeling too much anger right now too -- but like RRN63 says, best to be polite, respectful, etc. (and as one of those "crazy animal rights extremists," i KNOW how difficult and frustrating that can be! but it seriously helps to state your case, and not get all "emotional" about it)
	♥ 4:48pm tim from champaign (now washington): Wait a minute, Matt hates the beach? Why the hell did he make a tank top for his premium then?
	♥ 4:48pm joseloalter: Lovely afternoon. Totally agree about wearing a mask been kind of fun like that. Also, related, learning to recognize people by the way they walk or other no facial feature.
	♥ 4:48pm joseloalter: Lovely afternoon. Totally agree about wearing a mask been kind of fun like that. Also, related, learning to recognize people by the way they walk or other no facial feature.
	4:48pm castor: Right there with ya about using the mask to hide from pple, I just did it recently when I saw an old acquaintance who was acting especially sketchy in public and I was so glad they didn’t recognize me.
	🍝 ♥ 4:49pm Handy Haversack: tim, you're supposed to wear it while working the pizza oven!
	♥ 4:49pm queems: my boyfriend hates the beach and i just don't understand how
	♥ 4:50pm Phillippe: Has anyone detected that they have MORE eye contact with people when walking amongst the masked or LESS? I think I've seen more, but I generally never venture out of my neighborhood and it's like Mayberry around here.
	♥ 4:51pm ョヱ k: Many of us who grew up near a beach are tired of the beach. Though I’ve been away from it long enough now that I have started to appreciate it.
	4:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Not saying kiss feet ! - just play Lawyer...
	♥ 4:52pm nathan: I grew up near the atlantic city beach and hated being dragged there, but now i have no idea what i was on and try to get there as much as possible. i assume most beach haters have some sort of sand-phobia
	♥ 4:52pm slugluv1313: @RRN63 -- exactly! Lawyer and/or Mr. Spock :)
	♥ 4:53pm olivia: he'd probably say hate is too strong of a word, but he would say he's more of a "lake guy" than a "beach guy", I dunno he just gets bored there quicker than i do
	4:53pm Tom from Stirling: Most cake is good. Except cheesecake. Too much cheese.
	♥ 4:53pm tim from champaign (now washington): OH! I see now. Thanks, Handy. Once again WFMU has helped educate me on culturally differences between city slickers and hayseeds.
	♥ 4:53pm olivia: Tom, you need to get over yer cheese hatred STAT!
	♥ 4:54pm queems: my bf is a mountain guy and i'm like wtf there isn't even any water in this equation
	🍝 ♥ 4:55pm Handy Haversack: Have the ziti! OK, back soon. Need to go to the corner for corner naan, make cocktails, hide Kate's in a mug so she can have it during her meeting. Bagpipe, you're in charge while I'm gone!
	♥ 4:55pm tim from champaign (now washington): My first post tomorrow will be "Yo Matt. Why you hate the beach so much?"
	4:55pm Tom from Stirling: Volleyball on the beach is fun. Get all sweaty playing volleyball. Then jump in the ocean to cool off. ( No more cheese comments, promise)
	4:56pm sphere: As an unbeach person, I just don't dig the water and baking on the sand with a book. It just doesn't appeal.
	🍝 ♥ 4:58pm Jason from Houston: That's why I like to go in February, sphere. I can bring A big blanket and a book and it's fine. And no people. LOL
	♥ 4:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid: also in the beach-non-appreciation club. Didn't grow up near one, it's just ecch. The sea & salt air smells like unclean horror; one turnip's opinion. Mountain woods though .. if one must escape the concrete jungle .. would be the pref here..
	♥ 5:01pm Rev. Turnip Druid: this here sonics is lovely
	♥ 5:01pm Richy4619: i like both. native east coaster moved west. living by the beach in SF ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
	5:02pm castor: Beaches are superior to lakes because you can do battle with the waves and stare into the infinite horizon. The Great Lakes come close, but not quite.
	🍝 ♥ 5:02pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: 2 clicky stars in a row...can we get a coveted 2nd bingo...
	♥ 5:03pm queems: ocean air is like huffing salty farts and i am HERE FOR IT
	🍝 ♥ 5:03pm bukowski.: beaches are cool but i much prefer a secluded mountain lake
	5:03pm Tams: beaches are cool as hell
	5:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: All Water Signs - loves it. & I can't even swim. :D
	5:04pm julian in LA: beaches also exist in other seasons besides summer. you dont have to go there when it's 110 degrees
	5:04pm rw: Olivia! Don't be mad. You don't want those people at your beach anyway.
	🍝 ♥ 5:04pm diciassette: I was spoiled by Oahu beaches as a child. I don't think you can compare CA beaches to them, at all.
	5:04pm pwrmnstr: I loooove the beach! I’m really grateful to have the day off and listen to Radio Ravioli - going back into the office sux.
	♥ 5:04pm tim from champaign (now washington): @castor - I'm willing to fight to the death that the Michigan side of Lake Michigan has the finest beaches in the world. Fresh air, fantastic waves, fantastic sand dunes and plenty of hidden spots to hang out and enjoy.
	5:05pm Tams: "Beaches rule" on 3
	♥ 5:05pm joseloalter: I love the sea, the smell and f drying seaweed. Even the sand. The sun is what can get annoying sometimes. Nothing that a nice umbrella can’t resolve.
	5:05pm Imgur: I've been house sitting alone in the Hamptons for the last 6 months and it's been the absolute best. All the water, none of the people
	5:05pm Tams: 1
	5:05pm julian in LA: There's also beaches with no sand at all. go to a rocky beach in Oregon
	♥ 5:05pm Rev. Turnip Druid: no beach "hatred" here, everybody love their thing. But if I had a million days off, zero would be spent there. It's an interesting visceral thing, like a chemical signal that says "ooh, this is not my place" ..
	5:05pm Tams: 1
	♥ 5:05pm p/b: So happy to be catching your show today Olivia, sounds great as always. Getting me through...thank you
	♥ 5:05pm nathan: i think "salty fart" is kinda specific to jersey beaches, but yeah, it rules
	5:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Right - all beetchiz are not equal... Forests also Rule.

	♥ 5:05pm nathan: i think "salty fart" is kinda specific to jersey beaches, but yeah, it rules
	♥ 5:05pm ョョk: I started to like the beach more when I made out assiduously with a girlfriend on the beach several years ago. That instantly improved the status of beaches for me. (No I am not flexing, it only happened there that once and never again, so I am bummed about that, I should have made out with THOUSANDS of girls on thousands of beaches by now, LOL.)
	5:05pm Tams: 2
	5:05pm pwrmnstr: I love the salt air, the mussels clinging to seaweed, even the seagulls attacking my French fries.

	5:05pm Tams: 3
	♥ 5:06pm queems: i grew up going to a lake but we always took a yearly trip to atlantic city too
	♥ 5:06pm Phillippe: Definitely a beach guy here. Ocean beach, gulf beach, bay beach, lake beach, even the occasional river beach -- anywhere near water. Love the sea smell, and even like that low tide funk. Spread my ashes in the Chesapeake Bay
	5:06pm Marci B: I love the beach - lakes or ocean (though ocean preferred). What I don't love are the rude, arrogant, obnoxious beach goers. But that I mean folks who have to be as LOUD as possible, blasting house music, carrying on, harassing my old lady mellow ;) I just want to chill with nature but it's impossible to do so at NYC beaches. Sure I can wear headphones but I'm there for seagulls, crashing waves, etc.
	5:06pm kevlicki: I haven’t met a beach that I didn’t like. Love the perspective the ocean gives to us tiny peoples. Love living near the mountains in the Hudson valley too.
	5:06pm Tom from Stirling: C'mon, the ocean is beautiful. Great energy in the waves. The sound of the waves. Best time for the beach is about an hour before sunset. No crowds. Very peaceful.
	♥ 5:06pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: I love the mountains, and it's hard to beat finding like really cool bodies of water and waterfalls where there's also plenty of shade. With that said, there can be some really cool things down by beaches. The bays are underrated usually, and I love the more "natural" beaches, so to speak, instead of ones right in municipalities. It's nice when you're just surrounded by nature and wildlife like at an Island Beach State Park, Sandy Hook, or south Jersey natural areas like in Strathmere or Brigantine. Also Great Kills in Staten Island, which is one of my secret go-to summer spots. Never crowded, even on the busiest weekends. Also a protected beach, so you can swim. And now you can legally spark up in NYS anywhere that allows tobacco smoking.
	🍝 ♥ 5:06pm chris in the redwoods: all the bodies of water! live near the ocean, and love love walking on the beach. even puppers goes bonkers at the beach. love hiking to mountain lakes. love streams and rivers. i must live near water, or things will go poorly.
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...resisting commenting on asking NJ people about beaches - but I'm up here in NH hills & I'll stifle that...
	5:07pm julian in LA: people at the beach also dont always have to suck. you just have to know what beach to go to. if you go to a d-bag beach there will be d-bags there. it does'nt mean only d-bags go to the beach and that only d-bag beaches exist
	🍝 ♥ 5:07pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: ranklings 1. Mountains 2. Deserts 3. Beaches 4. Forests
	🍝 ♥ 5:08pm Niall: Must ask again - Olivia, what's playing under you as you talk at 5:08pm NY time?
	♥ 5:08pm tim from champaign (now washington): Matt - Why you hate the beach?
	5:08pm kevlicki: Julian in LA- Maine beaches are full of rocks. Really nice
	♥ 5:08pm Yes: are we talking miami beach or coastal washington beach?
	♥ 5:09pm queems: that's why you have to go to a beach that has stuff around. i'm not a beach sitter. i have to walk around and eat trash and do a skeeball
	♥ 5:09pm Ryansterlingvirtue: I second Matt.
	♥ 5:09pm Rev. Turnip Druid: The new place is a short walk to baltimore's inner harbor. Sitting on federal hill & gazing down at a distance, that's groovy. But that's a river jam; still water, as part of a bigger scene.
	5:09pm Imgur: I'm about to listen to this very show while running on the beach. I predict it will rule
	5:09pm brainiac: If you're sitting like a lizard, you're doing it wrong.
	5:09pm julian in LA: i love rocky beaches and sandy beaches. I have some hidden spots in Malibu that i go to that are free and empty of all d bags lol
	♥ 5:09pm RomanDogBird: tv rules
	🍝 ♥ 5:10pm Krys O.: I grew up living near the Long Island Sound. We could go to Rye Beach almost every day during the summer. Hop on a bus or get a ride. This was the 60s through the 70s. The water and sand were relatively clean. It was relaxing to lay in the sun and then swim to the float at the edge of the cordoned off area. I wouldn't go now because of pollution and crowds. My friends and I would go to the beach in the winter to have a picnic and fly kites...
	5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Getting sunfried is deffo a thing - but that happens in the Forest too...
	♥ 5:10pm queems: omg take a beach nap
	♥ 5:10pm Webhamster Henry: I am such a beach comber. I LOOOOVE the sound of the water, and watch sandbars and dig up clams and throw them back, and digging holes. I can bike to a beach (Hudson river, although it's an estuary). It's coated with water chestnut spikes, though.
	🍝 ♥ 5:10pm listener james from westwood: No lie, was eyeing Asbury for a beach day this Wednesday, or at least a boardwalk day.
	🍝 ♥ 5:10pm Handy Haversack: An expert witness on the Matt position! Chair and a shade make a big difference to me. So I can read between swims. I do love to swim, though.
	♥ 5:10pm ョヱ k: YES TALK ABOUT SURVIVOR, ROTFL
	🍝 ♥ 5:10pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @niall this is Jon hassell
	5:10pm julian in LA: maybe some people just dont like nature. that's the world we live in lol
	5:10pm castor: @tim I admit I have only been to the Chicago beach so i can’t say you’re wrong, but I still feel like it would not impress me personally as much as an ocean beach. Ishmael had a beautiful argument about the Great Lakes being just as cool as the ocean in Moby Dick though.
	♥ 5:10pm queems: i want to do metal detector stuff on a beach
	5:11pm kevlicki: The ocean is happening Matt
	5:11pm Ryab: Galveston smells like a dumper. I like to walk along and people watch with people.
	🍝 ♥ 5:12pm Krys O.: Living 35+ years in New Jersey, I have never visited the Shore. I loved Cape Cod too.
	5:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I lived in SantaBarbara ...there's oil stuff sometimes - but damn man - smell yerself awlready ! :P ...
	🍝 ♥ 5:12pm Ken From Hyde Park: Also not in the beach sitting camp. I can walk all day along the beach. Sitting through sunrise or sunset, I could do.
	5:12pm ?: ill go to the beach everyday if theres one nearby go in the water for 5, 10 minutes tops then leave. often twice a day. why people stay there all day is beyond me. if i wanna chill outside and read a book or something ill do it in the shade.
	♥ 5:12pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: You're wrong about no TV at the beach! You can get portable TV tuners for your phone and laptop and hook it up to an antenna for over-the-air television. One of these days when the Yankees are on Pix11, I'm going to watch some of the game at Ruby's and then watch the rest on the beach on my phone or computer. Definitely agree too about how I really don't like going to the beach just to sit there and do nothing the whole time.
	♥ 5:12pm Phillippe: the sulfur smell in the Florida Keys at low tide can be challenging, but I don't even mind that all that much since I know I'm in The Keys when I smell it. I love the beach...
	5:12pm julian in LA: There's lots of things you can do at the beach. sitting around and doing nothing is something that never occurs to me. go for a run, find seashells, go surfing, build a sand castle play frisbee, write a novel
	🍝 ♥ 5:13pm Krys O.: Also Rye Beach is next to Playland amusement park with a gorgeous boardwalk.
	5:13pm Glistener MW: A: yes, yes I do! 🌴
	5:13pm Tom from Stirling: Sitting or standing at the edge of the beach letting the waves come over your feet. C.mon, that's the life. Matt has a poor relationship with the ocean. Khorr's custard at Pt. Pleasant. Yes!
	♥ 5:13pm Yes: imgur.com...
	♥ 5:13pm Webhamster Henry: This is an educational segment.
	🍝 ♥ 5:13pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: amazing that the best Neil Young album has sparked such furious debate
	5:13pm kevlicki: Krys O- I spent summers on Cape Cod as a kid, my grandparents lived there, now my folks are there. Great place to visit and ride a bike...to the beach
	5:13pm castor: The coolest beach I went to was in Catania, Sicily, with bright blue water and huge volcanic rocks that you could swim around and maybe even get smashed up against.

	♥ 5:13pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Ocean City (MD) has the big annual motorcycle fest every year. So there's that. Nothing to do with thee oatchin.
	🍝 ♥ 5:13pm Handy Haversack: Nice, Rosey! You know how to live, pal!
	♥ 5:14pm queems: black sand beach on the big island of hawaii was next level and it had turtles
	🍝 ♥ 5:14pm Niall: Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: Ah! Ahhh! God, thank you. From "Vernal Equinox," right? That was driving me batty.
	5:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: RTD - annual bikers a thing in NH too... maybe the same ones I dunno...
	5:14pm less in red hook: I just went to the beach in NC. I'm not a huge beach person, but it's mostly because the ocean freaks me out. The beach itself is fine, but similar to Matt, I get kinda antsy and bored. But this time I brought a set of watercolors and did some painting. had a good time. found some nice shells
	🍝 ♥ 5:15pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @niall correct!
	🍝 ♥ 5:15pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: god, this song rips so hard
	5:15pm julian in LA: the best thing to do at the beach is listen to WFMU! MF'ers!
	🍝 ♥ 5:15pm Niall: "Toucan Ocean," got it. That was turning into a sore in my brain's mouth I couldn't stop chewing.
	♥ 5:16pm Ryansterlingvirtue: The last time I was at the nude beach in Jersey, on my way out I put on my WFMU shirt and some naked older dude was like "Oh man, love WFMU!"
	♥ 5:16pm Ryansterlingvirtue: I quickened my pace a little
	🍝 ♥ 5:16pm listener james from westwood: Would love to get back down to Naples, FL. Was there briefly for a wedding one March and it was like another planet. So beautiful. Would also love to see the Pacific again someday; in 1997 I drove all the way out, IIRC, Santa Monica Blvd, parked, walked out to the edge of the water, and put my hand in the Pacific for my first-ever time. (Later found out a friend did the same on his first visit. We're both Atlantic Ocean adjacent lifers, so it must've been some sort of primal urge to mingle the waters.)
	♥ 5:16pm Phillippe: @Rev Turnip Druid took my boys down the ocean years ago when the bike thing was happening and could not find a single hotel room, even as far north as Dewey. The place is nuts that week.
	🍝 ♥ 5:17pm Ken From Hyde Park: Beaches provide a place for all that plastic to wash up. The stuff that escapes the garbage patch out in the middle.
	5:17pm castor: You could always bring a lemon and play “Catch the Lemon” in the waves, or bring a 40 into the waves and float it around to your friends
	🍝 ♥ 5:18pm Krys O.: We also used to go to beaches in Connecticut like Sherwood Island. That was my favorite. It had sand dunes.
	♥ 5:18pm nathan: at Culebra beach in Puerto Rico, I found a derelict tank from WWII with "Wake & Bake" graffiti on it, while i was wearing my Wake hat. it was super duper exciting
	🍝 ♥ 5:18pm chris in the redwoods: "Wait, WFMU DJs play CAN? I'm sorry for the confusion, we had no idea. Non-profit status confirmed," the Jersey City tax collector should say.
	🍝 ♥ 5:19pm Baja Joe: I prefer the deep woods to the beach. Not a fan of bright sun and overly warm weather and prefer the cool dark recesses of the forests.
	♥ 5:19pm TDK60: Hello Olivia. Someone said I can get Music Appreciation credits here.
	♥ 5:19pm olivia: lol @Chris!

	🍝 ♥ 5:20pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @nathan yea, stoked!!!
	♥ 5:20pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @philippe: indeed. OC bike week is supposed to be the biggest one in the universe, or something. I've never been, but thinking about hitting the next one, for kicks, since I'm on such a dinky little machine (which I love) .. & see how much abuse I can attract
	🍝 ♥ 5:20pm Krys O.: @kevlicki: I went several times to Cape Cod with my oldest sister and her first husband. This is bringing up more memories. I went to Long Island to visit my other sister in the 70s. Mastic Beach, Orient Point, Patchogue. Great times.
	♥ 5:20pm Phillippe: @listener James from westwood a handful of years ago I worked on a project for an Italian oil and gas company and that year I got to dip my toe in the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic, Pacific, and Arctic Oceans. What a year for a beach guy!
	🍝 ♥ 5:21pm Krys O.: I miss swimming...
	♥ 5:22pm Phillippe: @rev turnip druid hey, its as much about the leather than the bike. dress appropriately!
	♥ 5:22pm Yes: love this jam
	🍝 ♥ 5:22pm chris in the redwoods: whoa! thanks, nathan. that is very cool.
	5:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: OK - but always thinking - avoid a Hell's Angel if you can - & let him have his way if I can't... Or offer him Enochian Magick Cake...
	5:24pm Stillwell Coney Islander: I grew up in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn which is surrounded by beaches. Manhattan Beach, Brighton Beach, Plumb Beach, Gerritsen Beach, the community college I went to was built on Manhattan Beach (Kingsbourgh Community College) that's all we knew as kids. Beaches, boating and fishing.
	♥ 5:25pm joseloalter: I went to an inland beach in Asturias, northern Spain. The actual shore is like half a mile away, but the sea water flows inland through underground caves and resurfaces creating a lovely little beach in the middle of a field. Ideal for people who don’t love the conventional ideal of “the beach.”
	♥ 5:25pm Ryansterlingvirtue: loving these jammers today
	♥ 5:25pm Rev. Turnip Druid: OK, I'll admit to ONE BEACH i dug & could stay for hours, and that was the north coast of Sjælland, Denmark. In autumn. Best fish ever, best beer ever, best climate ever. What the hell is that water anyway, the north sea? That. Great stuff. So you get ONE BEACH outta me.
	5:26pm Tom from Stirling: This is fun. Good ,clean WFMU fun. And the music is good too.
	5:26pm julian in LA: one of the most magical beaches in the world is Fort Tilden. It's a total dump compared to anywhere in CA, but I miss it so much... it's so damn cool
	🍝 ♥ 5:27pm Handy Haversack: Main problem for us with local beaches is that we can't bring the dog, which puts a timer on the whole endeavor.

	🍝 ♥ 5:29pm Niall: Though I'm fortunate to live maybe ten, fifteen minutes' walk from the sea and forty-five minutes' walk to the mountains.
	🍝 ♥ 5:29pm Handy Haversack: For REALS, Rev.! queems, getting to Riis is generally complicated enough for us that we default to Coney Island.
	♥ 5:30pm Rev. Turnip Druid: oh, Rabbit, I'm hoping for a nice even mix of angels & devils, there. Keeps both sides honest. Or something.
	5:30pm brainiac: I just wrote "WFMU is so educational" 75 times. Now where do I send it?
	🍝 ♥ 5:30pm Niall: And hours' drive from any truly interesting restaurants.
	♥ 5:30pm Mike W: Handy — yes yes on dogs and beaches. I’ve got a family trip with dog to a place in/near Rehoboth Beach planned for September.
	5:30pm castor: I grew up vacationing at the Delaware beaches, particularly Bethany, and it made me love not just the beach but the whole nautical life. I loved diving into the waves and every once in a while going through the “spin cycle” and washing up on shore with sand all up in my bathing suit.
	🍝 ♥ 5:31pm Niall: @Mike W what I'd do for some fresh Dogfish Head!
	♥ 5:31pm queems: @handy i always had to go with a friend who had a car, otherwise it was a no from me. i actually was there a couple weeks ago to walk around and put pokemon in gyms. the ferry to rockaway beach is a total game changer though. so pleasant
	🍝 ♥ 5:31pm Handy Haversack: Wow, the Bandcamp description: "Twelve inches of evidence of a whirlwind Philadelphia weekend.. They wrote and recorded the record and played a gig and consumed a dozen burritos and a pile of beer and shipped a fella back to Omaha.. The audacious ad-hoc 4 piece ragged combo put in the sleepless 48 hours and this is what we get: 2 raw sides of electric rock action jammed with all the humbucked girth, single-coil screech & low down thud a Tascam 388 can handle. Today’s necessary palate cleanser."
	5:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Have talked to Musicians who have played for Angels - & said they're Good Time people. But you must play Dead. & there's Big Guns @ the door. Oh & the one mean one with one hand. Kewl but Thanks No Thanks.
	5:32pm Oregon bob: I love the beach!!! But it’s Oregon:)
	♥ 5:32pm Carmichael: I used to surf out here semi-regularly before I got old and unbalanced.
	♥ 5:32pm TDK60: Coney Island beach would be good for a meetup of NYC woofmooers, closest beach. It's still the lower harbor though so minimal to no waves. Plenty of room toward the west.
	♥ 5:32pm Phillippe: @Niall technically, I have a beach right outside my door, but its about a foot of mud down to the sand. we live on a river that opens into the Chesapeake Bay. There's a nice community beach that's maybe a 10 minute walk that is on the Bay. I've been in heaven since we moved here
	5:33pm julian in LA: i love Riis. I'm a sucker for all that NYC reconstruction BS
	♥ 5:33pm Rev. Turnip Druid: preference would be devils, certainly speaking of which, re-watched an old favorite (glory stompers, 1967) -- it only gets better with age... The peak of Casey Kasem's career, that was.
	♥ 5:33pm Carmichael: @Oregon bob, I used to go out to Haystack Rock in Pacific City. Or at least the brewery next to the rock ...
	🍝 ♥ 5:34pm Handy Haversack: queems, true! But I think in the summer it gets totally overwhelmed. Two-hour waits to board, I have heard. Ferries are pretty inefficient. Max. capacity is only eighty-eight. We used it in the fall, though, just to ride around and talk with friends and have some beers, and it was great. Walked to the beach, looked at the ocean, had a drink, came back to the ferry. Even then, it was very crowded.
	5:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: RTD - HBD Dennis Hopper !
	🍝 ♥ 5:35pm Niall: @Phillippe: Neat! What's it like in August?
	5:37pm brainiac: @Carm: Had a great time staying across the street from Pelican Brewing at Cape Kiwanda. Can't wait to get back there.
	♥ 5:37pm queems: @handy we've definitely gotten lucky with our ferry timing. it does get extremely crowded. these days it doesn't make sense for me to go to nyc beaches unless i'm specifically meeting a friend
	🍝 ♥ 5:38pm Niall: Last night I heard that "Where There's a Whip, There's a Way" song from Ralph Bakshi's "Return of the King (I think)", and y'know, I'll be damned, song's kind of a banger. Wah-wah guitar in Middle Earth!
	♥ 5:38pm Carmichael: Pelican! That's it.
	5:38pm brainiac: @Carm: Did you run down the giant hill of sand?
	♥ 5:38pm queems: also re: letter, is 318 words acceptable? i've pared it down as far as it can go
	♥ 5:39pm Carmichael: Didn't get the pleasure, brainiac.
	5:39pm brainiac: After a few beers, it gets quite comical.
	5:39pm brainiac: Then the compound fractures wreck it for everyone.
	♥ 5:40pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @niall -- it's also one hell of a sticky earworm. Now I must go re-watch that one..
	5:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Niall - RankinBass Hobbit ! :D
	🍝 ♥ 5:41pm Niall: Rev. Turnip Druid: Whuh-PSHH!
	♥ 5:42pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: Ha, thanks, Handy! Got distracted with some stuff and forgot to check the comments board, haha. I really make those trips adventures too by bringing my bicycle on a bus or train. And to Tom from Stirling's point, especially because I get cold easily and may not always want to swim, how could you not enjoy standing where the waves are washing up onto the shore while sipping on a beer? Fun grabbing a six pack from Coney Island Brewery. I was actually down there with my dog for a little a few weeks ago. Plumb Beach is also a cool little place, Stillwell. Nice stop along the greenway.
	♥ 5:42pm Rev. Turnip Druid: of course that version of Hobbit leads to the mandatory double-feature with Bakshi's WIZARDS, and if we're going in that deep, delivery curry & beersies, and all the trimmings..
	🍝 ♥ 5:42pm Niall: Rev Rabbit: Oh, was it not Bakshi? I remember it being so cheap-looking with so much reused animation, I assumed it was his!
	🍝 ♥ 5:43pm Niall: Oh man maybe there needs to be a WFMU Discord server!
	5:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Niall - split the error - RankinBass 'Return of King'...
	🍝 ♥ 5:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: Don't forget to add comments about Monty Hall in the education letters. A place for community gathering and all.
	🍝 ♥ 5:43pm Niall: RTD: "Wizards," right. I suspect I've made this mistake many times over the years.
	5:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: tolkiengateway.net...
	♥ 5:44pm queems: @kfhp yes!! if i had had more space i def would have
	🍝 ♥ 5:45pm Niall: Nice one, Rabbit. I'd take that over anything sung in the Peter Jackson fillums.
	♥ 5:45pm Rev. Turnip Druid: the two films are forever tied in my brain. MANDATORY double-feature, with wizards as the conclusion. alternatively, wizards/heavy metal .. that killer orb in the taxi...
	5:46pm brainiac: @queems: Do what I do and delete word spaces until you're under the limit.
	♥ 5:47pm queems: @brainiac i def deleted every adjective in the whole letter
	🍝 ♥ 5:47pm Niall: Hide a simple cipher in your letters and say you learned about them on WFMU!
	♥ 5:47pm Phillippe: @Niall pretty humid! Unfortunately August is when the beaches get a little dicey, as the stinging sea nettles move in and the horse flies arrive. where we are (the confluence of the Magothy, Little Magothy, and Chesapeake Bay, just north of Annapolis) water is wide but not very deep except for the channels. You can walk in waist deep water almost a quarter mile directly from the shore.
	5:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Actually rate the RankinBass 'Hobbit' highly ! Then Bakshi started 'Lord of the Rings' ...not great. Then R&B did 'Return' - also not exceptional... But 'Wizards' is weirdly uniquely great. 'Heavy Metal' - just so much lesser than the Magazine - hard to get past that...
	5:48pm brainiac: WFMUissoeducational
	♥ 5:48pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: Ryansterlingvirtue, ha, I went there once! Swear I was just thinking about it last night. Went because nudity makes everything funnier. Was definitely weird when it was actually time to just drop my trunks in public though! Gotta get back some time. Nice spot too because I should be able to easily pick up TV signals from the Freedom Tower. Hope WFMU would come in, I guess on 91.1 in that location? There are some classic rock stations around there at least, and you can simulcast The Boss on MeTV (WJLP)'s frequency and get digital sound. Channel 33.13 has The Boss on radio while 33.10 is this really awesome weather channel with The Boss in the background. There are some other radio station simulcasts on that frequency too. You need extra-long antenna elements though because WJLP is a low-v channel on RF channel 3. The More You Know.
	♥ 5:48pm Webhamster Henry: In my support letter, I mentioned the WFMU Chatboard as an informative and civil experience.
	🍝 ♥ 5:49pm Niall: This ^^^
	♥ 5:49pm Rev. Turnip Druid: was the perfect age when wizards was released, must have seen it in theater a trillion times.
	♥ 5:49pm Webhamster Henry: AND EDUCATIONAL!
	♥ 5:49pm Rev. Turnip Druid: that Strie thing was AY PLUS PLUS
	♥ 5:50pm TDK60: I'm gonna put in my letter that they even have Welsh music.
	🍝 ♥ 5:51pm Niall: This Monokultur would sit perfectly on the Alien Americana premium from a couple years ago. Bandcamp, here I come.
	🍝 ♥ 5:52pm Niall: TDK60: Smart! Compound words and you'll save on vowels!
	♥ 5:52pm olivia: Really beautiful album by monokultur Niall! glad you dig!
	5:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Apologies for blabbing about everything but the playlist ! It is of course marvelous.
	♥ 5:53pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Accokeek! Piscataway country represent!
	🍝 ♥ 5:53pm listener 126464: Thank you Olivia!
	♥ 5:54pm chresti: Thank you Ms. Olivia, I really enjoyed the ravioli music class!
	🍝 ♥ 5:55pm Niall: Jantar "Sempronia" doesn't appear to be on BC, but there are other titles, and I've heard none of them. Any recommendations?
	♥ 5:56pm TDK60: Thanks Olivia.
	♥ 5:56pm Ryansterlingvirtue: Great show today, Olivia!
	🍝 ♥ 5:57pm chris in the redwoods: thanks, Olivia!
	5:57pm brainiac: What a great show. Let's do this again next week, eh wot?
	🍝 ♥ 5:57pm Handy Haversack: Gah, so late! Slowed down because I had been overposting -- but for a good cause! Rosey, those are awesome tips! queems, let's plan a beach meet-up some time. You and K8 have very similar beach philosophies! There's what we call the "hipster bus" that we have used to go to Rockaway or Tilden that is pretty cool. They rent chairs and umbrellas and even give you a beer! Thanks, Olivia! Great stuff! Much appreciated. Several things Entered the Wishlist.
	🍝 ♥ 5:57pm Krys O.: Thanks, Olivia and everyone! Arf!
	♥ 5:57pm Phillippe: Thanks Olivia! Wishing you more sand between your toes!
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: TY AudioPasta Master Olivia for the Sounds & Hosting this space !
	🍝 ♥ 5:58pm Niall: Haha, my dog's growling and huffing
	♥ 5:58pm tim from champaign (now washington): Thanks, Olivia! See you at the beach!
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hullo Dawgie.
	🍝 ♥ 5:58pm Niall: Be cool, Hamish; be cool.
	♥ 5:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Mother Sky does the same thing with myself, promise.
	5:58pm brainiac: Take that dog walkies tout suite.
	🍝 ♥ 5:59pm Jason from Houston: Stay beachy, good people! There are beaches on rivers, too! Love y'all!
	🍝 ♥ 5:59pm G: Some dog people call it, when a dog does that, "the zoomies."
	🍝 ♥ 5:59pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: thanks for the show!
	🍝 ♥ 5:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Educator Olivia!
	♥ 5:59pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: Ha, thanks, Handy. One benefit of being autistic is that when I get interested in something, I get REALLY interested in it, haha. I find out all sorts of cool stuff. I'd be down to do a beach thing some time too and would probably try bringing my dog. He's over 16, so he only has so much time left. Rescue dog too. What a lucky dog. Love him so darn much. He's in bed with me right now, sleeping. Loving the dog, speaking of which, Olivia! Go have a good night now! Thanks for the show.

	🍝 ♥ 3:15pm karlward: queems: several Texans here. What's baked ziti?
	🍝 ♥ 3:15pm ChukAmok: @Karlward I had a feeling that Mary Chapin Carpenter was somewhere in that mix.
	♥ 3:15pm tim from champaign (now washington): @RRN - now you're getting into 'Paul Is Dead' territory with theories like that! ;)
	3:15pm the noggin: yeh, buddy. got my swag over the weekend and a little sense of pride came with it too Hope all is well

	🍝 ♥ 3:16pm karlward: Also there were only five Pet Shop Boys fans in Houston, TX in the 90s, and I knew the other four. We rolled deep to that one Erasure show. Deep.

	3:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: tim : Another way TheBeatles suffered from being so ahead of the curve: attracting Conspiracy whack-ohs...

	🍝 ♥ 3:26pm Jason from Houston: Sorry Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen! No harm intended!
	🍝 ♥ 3:28pm Handy Haversack: Respect the arm, respect the legs, respect the ziti. Looks with desperate longing but a long since destroyed soul and ability to feel joy at Zach Wilson

	3:29pm Toutevoix: ((((((◍))))))
	🍝 ♥ 3:31pm karlward: Is BBQ ravioli..... a thing?
	🍝 ♥ 3:33pm bukowski.: wooooooo this is good
	3:34pm sphere: Knowing Americans, I am sure someone has merged BBQ and ravioli some time.
	🍝 ♥ 3:35pm steveo: Commenting live from Monty Hall! Sounds great! Tell Bruce I miss him :)
	3:36pm brainiac: I use foil to keep them from falling through the grill.
	3:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hm. Ravioli might lend itself to Dipping in Sauces... There was of course the great Pasta Chef Sitar Knife Murderer - Ravioli Shanker...
	3:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...another victim of the gig economy...
	3:39pm wizard frog: Sitaravioli
	3:39pm sphere: You could stuff ravioli with chopped brisket or chopped pork.
	3:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Raga Ragu... & you ?
	🍝 ♥ 3:40pm karlward: Jason From Houston: what's your position on this?
	♥ 3:40pm nathan: inside a cornbread pocket? or is it no longer ravioli at that point?

	♥ 3:45pm Phillippe: hey sphere, handy!
	3:46pm Eldan: ❤️
	🍝 ♥ 3:46pm Handy Haversack: Olivia, when I was in Monty Hall last week, I left a bag of Sweet Potato Steak Frites for Pony, Bruce, Sammy, Lola, et al. I know Michele said Pony has trouble with harder treats -- can you save a few for her? Thanks!
	♥ 3:47pm slugluv1313: ahhh Lydia <3 <3 <3
	♥ 3:48pm tim from champaign (now washington): What was the plane ride like, Olivia? I'm flying in early July. I'm expecting the worst. Overbooked flights, anti-mask jackasses, the whole deal.Hopefully, I'm wrong?
	♥ 3:48pm Rick from SC: Happy Monday all.
	♥ 3:48pm tim from champaign (now washington): I think 8 Eyed Spy is my favorite Lydia Lunch group.
	🍝 ♥ 3:49pm ChukAmok: Hey Phillipe! Hey Rick!
	🍝 ♥ 3:52pm listener james from westwood: This Lena Platanos is shaking off the rust!
	🍝 ♥ 3:52pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @tim i just flew down to north carolina on delta the other day and it was pretty fine. with 2 seats on each side of an aisle, they either paired you with whoever you bought your tickets with or sat you solo. no real fuss otherwise. as a vaccinated person tho i gotta admit i appreciate the relative laxity regarding masks in establishments down south. first time being inside a business without a mask in over a year feels pretty good. your mileage may vary!
	♥ 3:52pm Richy4619: ♫♪-._.-(◠౪◠) -.♫.-._.♫♪
	3:53pm brainiac: Flying from Sacramento to Chicago on Friday. Not looking forward to it at all.
	3:53pm Toutevoix: Lena Platanos j'aime bien, allez une étoile
	3:54pm AD: Yes please
	🍝 ♥ 3:54pm ChukAmok: @Brainiac Which airline? It seems Delta is still spacing people out, but AA is packing every jet they can.
	🍝 ♥ 3:54pm Handy Haversack: OK, the working, it must end. Perhaps easing into the drinking with a cider might be in order ...
	♥ 3:55pm nathan: i'm vaxxed and was in New Orleans last week... quite a culture shock going from being screamed at by an unmasked fratboy in a NoLa bar to being told to mask up while on the open-air top deck of the east river ferry
	🍝 ♥ 3:55pm ChukAmok: Not sure about JetBlue or Southwest...
	🍝 ♥ 3:56pm Handy Haversack: nathan, I have become an expert at inserting my beer can under my mask while riding the East River ferry!
	3:57pm Tom from Stirling: People look better with masks anyway. Right?
	♥ 3:57pm nathan: @Handy they must make custom ones with a builtin beer pouch... i need to investigate
	♥ 3:57pm tim from champaign (now washington): Thanks for the share BB QB JA. That sounds like a decent flight. I'm flying on Delta with my 2 young kids. WIth some restrictions being eased, I was picturing air travel turning into a free-for-all of all the worst behaviors.
	🍝 ♥ 3:58pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @nathan hah. yeah. it's weirdly cultural. my guideline is basically - does this business have a "wear a mask" sign? are the patrons wearing masks? not trying to stick out even more than my obviously new york ass already does. even in the same small town here (in tennessee), we just went to a small indoor fruit / homemade jam market type place where no one but employees were wearing masks, and then to a grocery store where basically everyone was.
	🍝 ♥ 3:58pm ChukAmok: Has anybody tried the beer can in a feedbag trick yet?
	3:58pm wizard frog: (¬_¬)
	3:58pm brainiac: @Chuck: Southwest. I find it the least onerous of the carriers.
	🍝 ♥ 3:58pm Niall: Hm, what's that bed playing under you, @Olivia? It's distressingly familiar, but I can't place it.
	🍝 ♥ 3:59pm Handy Haversack: I took the ferry home last week after being at the station, Wall St. to Greenpoint. Drank a cider on the top deck as a crescent Eid moon set over Manhattan. Good stuff.
	🍝 ♥ 3:59pm listener james from westwood: AMBUH.
	🍝 ♥ 3:59pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @tim it will be interesting to see when the airlines change their guidelines. i think that is a totally separate department and the federal guidelines still say masks
	3:59pm brainiac: "Umbah"
	3:59pm wizard frog: AMBUH - PASS DA RAVI-OLAH
	♥ 3:59pm paddy in matawan: Go see da gurlz down the connor.
	♥ 3:59pm tim from champaign (now washington): Man, I know I'm going to be sitting next to that bozo.
	♥ 4:00pm tim from champaign (now washington): Man, I know I'm going to be sitting next to that bozo.
	🍝 ♥ 4:00pm listener james from westwood: I don't have plans to fly until April 2022 and I'm planning to mask up if only to avoid the usual conference-travel cold I seem to get. I really enjoyed NOT getting the typical cold and/or flu this season.
	🍝 ♥ 4:01pm Niall: Stromboli ravioli.
	🍝 ♥ 4:01pm ChukAmok: @Brainiac Well, safe travels and try not to have a panic attack. I flew to NYC two weeks ago and it was a bit much going up, but the return was easier to cope with. Gotta get over that first post-pandemic flight, I guess.
	4:01pm nadidadi: Enchilada Ravioli
	🍝 ♥ 4:01pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @listenerjames im hoping one of the long term effects of this is a new cultural norm that when you are sick and in public, you wear a mask!
	4:01pm Tom from Stirling: Masks are much needed when the shoes come off. That's for sure. If you're vaxxed , you're safe. So don't worry.
	4:01pm nadidadi: Chicken Francese Ravioli
	♥ 4:02pm ヱkョ: “Ambuh!” LOL! One of the few good things about Bawston Rob is all the impressions of him by other people, esp. Rob C.
	🍝 ♥ 4:02pm ChukAmok: @Handy that sounds like a great ferry trip! When's your next time at the station?
	🍝 ♥ 4:02pm Ken From Hyde Park: Fonzarelli Ravioli
	4:02pm brainiac: Thanks, Chuck. I'm considering dropping a Valium on the way to the airport.
	4:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Guac is fine (I was Californian for some time) - but it must not be Cooked with the rest of it !
	4:03pm sphere: I think you have to keep ravioli in the Italian flavor arena, or else it starts to become something else.
	🍝 ♥ 4:04pm steveo: Absolutely horrific tape gun, Handy :)
	4:04pm nadidadi: Isn't ravioli just a mini, pasta-based enchilada tho?
	🍝 ♥ 4:04pm ChukAmok: @Brainiac Endorsed. I also took "medicine" before going through security and it definitely helped.
	4:04pm Tom from Stirling: Ravioli....all that cheese. Sheesh. Cheese. What is the big attraction with cheese anyway?
	🍝 ♥ 4:05pm Jason from Houston: I dunno, karlward. I am a plain cheese person myself. Collina's serves it up with the crema rosa sauce and that's my fave. Been a vegetarian for 20+ years so I am probably not gonna break edge on a BBQ ravioli. LOL
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...ok - guac in the sense of mashed avo ...not spices to clash with Italian ...there are garlic & pepper overlaps in continents...
	4:05pm sphere: @nadidadi - enchiladas are rolled up tortillas. ravioli are not.
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Tiny hermetic lasagnas.
	4:06pm brainiac: I always get pulled out of line for extra security check. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with my facial expression.
	♥ 4:06pm Rev. Turnip Druid: angel food cake contains neither angels nor (i would argue) food you may quote me
	4:06pm nadidadi: @sphere- well let's agree not to yuck each other's yums!
	4:07pm Tom from Stirling: @brainac: that's why you should wear a mask. At all times
	🍝 ♥ 4:07pm Jason from Houston: ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎
	🍝 ♥ 4:07pm Handy Haversack: @ChukAmok, Scott's in during the days this week, and I'm doubtful that I can get free now. If it happens, it will be Friday. This is one of those three-meetings-in-the-evenings weeks, too, consarnit. Hopefully next week looks clearer.
	4:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Don't get to fly much - but I did find security effective for finding the ONE penny still in my wallet. Which is really important for everybody... Shows the efficiency actually I suppose...
	4:08pm sphere: @ RTD: Nice to see you, Sir Turnip! If you claim that angel food cake is not food, you just took a whole class of junk food out of the running.
	4:08pm brainiac: Maybe I'll use 2. One for the top half and one for the bottom. I'm sure that won't attract unwanted attention.
	🍝 ♥ 4:09pm ChukAmok: @Handy I may be in on Friday 05/28. With any luck we'll be packing swag together.
	🍝 ♥ 4:09pm Handy Haversack: Angle food cake was displaced by Saxon food cake.
	🍝 ♥ 4:10pm ChukAmok: I would like to say that as a baker I only use the finest of angels in my cakes.
	4:11pm nadidadi: Still House Plants...woooow <333
	4:12pm Tom from Stirling: Still House Plants had too much ravioli. All that cheese. Not good for singing.
	♥ 4:12pm tim from champaign (now washington): I like this a lot!
	♥ 4:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid: if i remember correctly, angels were like warrior spirits that carried out terrifying feats of vengeance and rage on behalf of the bearded one .. in which case I'd love to eat one, actually. in a cake would be lovely.
	🍝 ♥ 4:12pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: yeah. this rules
	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wouldn't be shocked to learn there was some Enochian technique for putting Angelic essence into comestibles to keep European monarchs empowered...
	4:13pm nadidadi: @Tom If Mariah can do it on champagne and honey, I don't think the cheese thing is founded necessarily. @tim @Buffalo Bills-- IKR!!!
	🍝 ♥ 4:13pm Jason from Houston: SO FINE!!!
	4:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Transubstantiation in Communion is presumed after all...
	4:15pm brainiac: Today I learned a new acronym. Thanks, nadidad.
	4:15pm nadidadi: lol @brainiac, my pleaszsh.
	🍝 ♥ 4:16pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: three clicky stars in a row, that's a bingo!
	🍝 ♥ 4:16pm Handy Haversack: brainiac, you didn't know about Ish Kabibble's Rolodex?
	4:16pm nadidadi: @Revolution Rabbit, re: the process of singing after imbibing sticky things and Still House Plants/Mariah?
	4:17pm nadidadi: @Handy el oh el
	4:18pm brainiac: We just say bingo. @Handy: Archie Bunker always laughed at the mention of Ish Kabibble IIRC
	4:18pm Tom from Stirling: Is KeiyaA talking about ravioli?
	4:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...reproduce John Dee's famous sigil for Elizabeth Ist in frosting, for example : wfmu.org... nadidadi - I'm afraid I don't know what that means (my fault).
	4:21pm NikiA: happpppy 4:20 y'all
	🍝 ♥ 4:21pm Niall: @Revolution Rabbit: I once recorded a COIL pisstake called "The Sloop John Dee." It wasn't as good as its title, but I'll always have that title.
	4:22pm Yes: Hi yall. Just arrived
	🍝 ♥ 4:22pm Handy Haversack: Or the Sisters of Mercy's Fluddland.
	4:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Niall: So - we have Ceremonial Music ready.
	4:23pm Tom from Stirling: Is L'rain the same as L'Rain?
	♥ 4:24pm Phillippe: Hey ChukAmok! (sorry, behind on hellos...)
	🍝 ♥ 4:26pm Niall: Holy crap, I can't believe this BS. Well, easy enough to sing the educational praises of WFMU.
	4:26pm brainiac: I think we've all learned a valuable lesson about government today.
	♥ 4:26pm queems: i wrote my letter, i just need to proof read
	🍝 ♥ 4:27pm Handy Haversack: Here's the whole thing again: The city of Jersey City has asked WFMU to prove that its programming has educational value, as a condition of keeping its tax exemption. This is a serious matter to the financial health of the station. As part of this effort, we're asking our listeners to provide letters or emails explaining how and why WFMU's programming has not just entertained them, but has also provided educational value. The educational value can be related to the history and relationship between culture or ideas, or more direct value such as information about any matters of public importance. Tell us how you have gained knowledge through the time you have spent listening to WFMU. This is a serious effort to address an important disagreement WFMU is having with the city of Jersey City. Whether you are an educator, a student or merely a student of life, please help us out with a thoughtful letter or email, and please keep them to 300 words. Letters should address the City of Jersey City, and can be emailed to helpus@wfmu.org by May 28th. Thank you for your help.
	🍝 ♥ 4:27pm Niall: Have you considered just becoming a cult? We could probably listen to Music of Mind Control and satisfy two criteria for tax-exemption in one go.
	🍝 ♥ 4:27pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: i popped out and missed the first half of this PSA. is there some post online i could read about it
	🍝 ♥ 4:28pm Niall: Unglaublich.
	🍝 ♥ 4:28pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @handy thanks!!!!
	🍝 ♥ 4:28pm Baja Joe: I'm on it!!!
	♥ 4:28pm queems: so when addressing to jersey city, should we just write DEAR JERSEY CITY because that sounds kind of silly
	🍝 ♥ 4:28pm Handy Haversack: And peposting my comment from WAB: "So let's all put these thoughts in letters! If anyone hates writing and just can't stand the thought of putting together, 300 words, contact me through my profile and send me your bullet points or summary, and I'll draft a letter and send it back to you so you can submit it. Use this stupid master's degree for something worthwhile."
	4:28pm Tom from Stirling: Angel food cake is good. As is devil's food cake. And pie.
	♥ 4:29pm Rev. Turnip Druid: gather unto me your pies
	🍝 ♥ 4:29pm Handy Haversack: "To whom it may concern in the municipal government of the city of Jersey City:"?
	♥ 4:30pm ヱkョ: The pure musicological educational value alone is tremendous.
	4:30pm brainiac: I admire Handys brain.
	🍝 ♥ 4:30pm Handy Haversack: Also: *reposting^^ It's not a master's degree in being careful!
	♥ 4:30pm queems: also my letter is 124 words over
	4:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Probly self-evident - but thinking that we should resist the temptation to 'Punk Out' on this... Rather, we should pretend we are Going to Court... State your positions - but in formal even respectful language.
	♥ 4:30pm ヱkョ: @RRN63 speaks wisely on this matter
	♥ 4:30pm queems: maybe i should take out the part where i slam dunk on wfuv
	4:31pm brainiac: Not just his body.
	🍝 ♥ 4:31pm chris in the redwoods: agreed, RevRab and Ike.
	🍝 ♥ 4:32pm Ken From Hyde Park: I plan on learning more about Tuvan throat singing starting at 7PM tonight.
	🍝 ♥ 4:32pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: many of the programs are honestly like mini museums. so much music that would be otherwise lost and ignored
	4:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ' A fool has himself for a Lawyer. '
	♥ 4:33pm ヱkョ: @Niall@4:27 and @queems@4:30, ROTFL!!!!!! @queems, did you use BT’s old insult “strollercore” for them?!
	🍝 ♥ 4:33pm Handy Haversack: queems, use of "you money-grubbing bureaucratic monsters" doesn't count against the word limit. Reb Rab, 100 percent! And probably also downplay the "learning about the history of music" aspect for more firm social-good ground. I mean, why would taxocrats care about the history of music or see learning about it as a good? Cultural stuff, yeah. Techtonic concerns. The archive as public resource. History of radio as the medium of the people and a public good. brainiac, you should see my brain on my body's body! Wait.
	🍝 ♥ 4:34pm chris in the redwoods: lol, Ken. i actually mentioned Tuvan throat singing!
	♥ 4:34pm queems: @ike LOLLL no but that is dead on
	♥ 4:36pm slugluv1313: @Handy -- thanks for that! but geez, SO typical of Jersey City/Hudson County -- Heaven forbid something be truly educational :( in any case, glad i heard about this today -- gives me some time to put together something (i swear, even before COVID hit, my "communication skills" were seriously damaged) i have been listening to WFMU since 1977 (my first year in college!) -- and i swear, i still learn something new from FMU every freaking day
	♥ 4:37pm queems: what is the preferred format for these letters? pdf? body of email? animated gif?
	♥ 4:38pm Ryansterlingvirtue: These guys are the other half of Galaxie 500, right?
	♥ 4:38pm Ryansterlingvirtue: or should I say 2/3
	♥ 4:38pm olivia: queems, I believe just body of email is good! Thank you!
	🍝 ♥ 4:39pm chris in the redwoods: i also invited the readers of my letter to tune in to WFMU and see for themselves. its pretty clear that hasn't happened to date. sigh.
	♥ 4:39pm queems: perfect, thanks @olivia!
	🍝 ♥ 4:39pm Handy Haversack: (Like, I'm not sure how useful it is to talk about how modeling a completely independent, listener-supported business model against the corporate capitalism and cultural suicide of commercial radio and your entire rentier society, you money-grubbing bureaucratic monsters, might be the only thing that sets us free from the chains of hatred, violence, and oppression embodied by a government that serves only the wealthy and a corporate culture that treats the bodies and minds of Americans as so many cheap commodities. But it would feel good!)
	🍝 ♥ 4:39pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @ryan you're thinking of damon and naomi! chris and cosey are throbbing gristle
	♥ 4:39pm olivia: Means a lot to see everyone want to help us with this. <3
	♥ 4:40pm nathan: yeah, i want to write a letter, but i feel like I'm currently too mad about the whole thing to write anything but a string of expletives. I'll sleep on it.
	4:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Well - Music is Culture. & we sure as hell are Edumactated about here ! & Comments are Community even - & sure as hell Educational too ! I think that's legit - but solider the audience & purpose of what you're writing ! There's certainly quite a range of what WFMU presents & represents. & for so many of us. The uniqueness of FMU - even commercially - is also legit imho - since this is about Funding & tax status... FMU is - almost mostly - NonProfit. Why tax it ??
	4:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Geez massive typos ... But consider...
	🍝 ♥ 4:43pm Jason from Houston: ♫ ꒰ ॢ ꈍ ◡ ꈍ ॢ ꒱ ♫
	4:43pm sphere: Why is Jersey City doing this? Whatever happed to the rule "Cultural Enrichment = Education?" There must be some goddamn city bureaucrat flexing their muscles at WFMU or something.
	🍝 ♥ 4:44pm Handy Haversack: Real estate, sphere. Real estate near the waterfront in condo land.
	♥ 4:46pm Ryansterlingvirtue: @buffalo. Yes. Thanks!
	🍝 ♥ 4:47pm chris in the redwoods: it does smell of ruffled feathers, sphere, doesn't it. eek, i hope its not plain and simple corruption, Handy. yikes. nevertheless, its quite easy to prove WFMU is an educational institution, so lets all do that. :)
	♥ 4:47pm slugluv1313: hell yeah, Olivia! and yes, feeling too much anger right now too -- but like RRN63 says, best to be polite, respectful, etc. (and as one of those "crazy animal rights extremists," i KNOW how difficult and frustrating that can be! but it seriously helps to state your case, and not get all "emotional" about it)
	♥ 4:48pm tim from champaign (now washington): Wait a minute, Matt hates the beach? Why the hell did he make a tank top for his premium then?
	♥ 4:48pm joseloalter: Lovely afternoon. Totally agree about wearing a mask been kind of fun like that. Also, related, learning to recognize people by the way they walk or other no facial feature.
	♥ 4:48pm joseloalter: Lovely afternoon. Totally agree about wearing a mask been kind of fun like that. Also, related, learning to recognize people by the way they walk or other no facial feature.
	4:48pm castor: Right there with ya about using the mask to hide from pple, I just did it recently when I saw an old acquaintance who was acting especially sketchy in public and I was so glad they didn’t recognize me.
	🍝 ♥ 4:49pm Handy Haversack: tim, you're supposed to wear it while working the pizza oven!
	♥ 4:49pm queems: my boyfriend hates the beach and i just don't understand how
	♥ 4:50pm Phillippe: Has anyone detected that they have MORE eye contact with people when walking amongst the masked or LESS? I think I've seen more, but I generally never venture out of my neighborhood and it's like Mayberry around here.
	♥ 4:51pm ョヱ k: Many of us who grew up near a beach are tired of the beach. Though I’ve been away from it long enough now that I have started to appreciate it.
	4:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Not saying kiss feet ! - just play Lawyer...
	♥ 4:52pm nathan: I grew up near the atlantic city beach and hated being dragged there, but now i have no idea what i was on and try to get there as much as possible. i assume most beach haters have some sort of sand-phobia
	♥ 4:52pm slugluv1313: @RRN63 -- exactly! Lawyer and/or Mr. Spock :)
	♥ 4:53pm olivia: he'd probably say hate is too strong of a word, but he would say he's more of a "lake guy" than a "beach guy", I dunno he just gets bored there quicker than i do
	4:53pm Tom from Stirling: Most cake is good. Except cheesecake. Too much cheese.
	♥ 4:53pm tim from champaign (now washington): OH! I see now. Thanks, Handy. Once again WFMU has helped educate me on culturally differences between city slickers and hayseeds.
	♥ 4:53pm olivia: Tom, you need to get over yer cheese hatred STAT!
	♥ 4:54pm queems: my bf is a mountain guy and i'm like wtf there isn't even any water in this equation
	🍝 ♥ 4:55pm Handy Haversack: Have the ziti! OK, back soon. Need to go to the corner for corner naan, make cocktails, hide Kate's in a mug so she can have it during her meeting. Bagpipe, you're in charge while I'm gone!
	♥ 4:55pm tim from champaign (now washington): My first post tomorrow will be "Yo Matt. Why you hate the beach so much?"
	4:55pm Tom from Stirling: Volleyball on the beach is fun. Get all sweaty playing volleyball. Then jump in the ocean to cool off. ( No more cheese comments, promise)
	4:56pm sphere: As an unbeach person, I just don't dig the water and baking on the sand with a book. It just doesn't appeal.
	🍝 ♥ 4:58pm Jason from Houston: That's why I like to go in February, sphere. I can bring A big blanket and a book and it's fine. And no people. LOL
	♥ 4:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid: also in the beach-non-appreciation club. Didn't grow up near one, it's just ecch. The sea & salt air smells like unclean horror; one turnip's opinion. Mountain woods though .. if one must escape the concrete jungle .. would be the pref here..
	♥ 5:01pm Rev. Turnip Druid: this here sonics is lovely
	♥ 5:01pm Richy4619: i like both. native east coaster moved west. living by the beach in SF ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
	5:02pm castor: Beaches are superior to lakes because you can do battle with the waves and stare into the infinite horizon. The Great Lakes come close, but not quite.
	🍝 ♥ 5:02pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: 2 clicky stars in a row...can we get a coveted 2nd bingo...
	♥ 5:03pm queems: ocean air is like huffing salty farts and i am HERE FOR IT
	🍝 ♥ 5:03pm bukowski.: beaches are cool but i much prefer a secluded mountain lake
	5:03pm Tams: beaches are cool as hell
	5:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: All Water Signs - loves it. & I can't even swim. :D
	5:04pm julian in LA: beaches also exist in other seasons besides summer. you dont have to go there when it's 110 degrees
	5:04pm rw: Olivia! Don't be mad. You don't want those people at your beach anyway.
	🍝 ♥ 5:04pm diciassette: I was spoiled by Oahu beaches as a child. I don't think you can compare CA beaches to them, at all.
	5:04pm pwrmnstr: I loooove the beach! I’m really grateful to have the day off and listen to Radio Ravioli - going back into the office sux.
	♥ 5:04pm tim from champaign (now washington): @castor - I'm willing to fight to the death that the Michigan side of Lake Michigan has the finest beaches in the world. Fresh air, fantastic waves, fantastic sand dunes and plenty of hidden spots to hang out and enjoy.
	5:05pm Tams: "Beaches rule" on 3
	♥ 5:05pm joseloalter: I love the sea, the smell and f drying seaweed. Even the sand. The sun is what can get annoying sometimes. Nothing that a nice umbrella can’t resolve.
	5:05pm Imgur: I've been house sitting alone in the Hamptons for the last 6 months and it's been the absolute best. All the water, none of the people
	5:05pm Tams: 1
	5:05pm julian in LA: There's also beaches with no sand at all. go to a rocky beach in Oregon
	♥ 5:05pm Rev. Turnip Druid: no beach "hatred" here, everybody love their thing. But if I had a million days off, zero would be spent there. It's an interesting visceral thing, like a chemical signal that says "ooh, this is not my place" ..
	5:05pm Tams: 1
	♥ 5:05pm p/b: So happy to be catching your show today Olivia, sounds great as always. Getting me through...thank you
	♥ 5:05pm nathan: i think "salty fart" is kinda specific to jersey beaches, but yeah, it rules
	5:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Right - all beetchiz are not equal... Forests also Rule.
	5:05pm Tams: 1
	♥ 5:05pm nathan: i think "salty fart" is kinda specific to jersey beaches, but yeah, it rules
	♥ 5:05pm ョョk: I started to like the beach more when I made out assiduously with a girlfriend on the beach several years ago. That instantly improved the status of beaches for me. (No I am not flexing, it only happened there that once and never again, so I am bummed about that, I should have made out with THOUSANDS of girls on thousands of beaches by now, LOL.)
	5:05pm Tams: 2
	5:05pm pwrmnstr: I love the salt air, the mussels clinging to seaweed, even the seagulls attacking my French fries.
	5:05pm pwrmnstr: I love the salt air, the mussels clinging to seaweed, even the seagulls attacking my French fries.
	5:05pm Tams: 3
	♥ 5:06pm queems: i grew up going to a lake but we always took a yearly trip to atlantic city too
	♥ 5:06pm Phillippe: Definitely a beach guy here. Ocean beach, gulf beach, bay beach, lake beach, even the occasional river beach -- anywhere near water. Love the sea smell, and even like that low tide funk. Spread my ashes in the Chesapeake Bay
	5:06pm Marci B: I love the beach - lakes or ocean (though ocean preferred). What I don't love are the rude, arrogant, obnoxious beach goers. But that I mean folks who have to be as LOUD as possible, blasting house music, carrying on, harassing my old lady mellow ;) I just want to chill with nature but it's impossible to do so at NYC beaches. Sure I can wear headphones but I'm there for seagulls, crashing waves, etc.
	5:06pm kevlicki: I haven’t met a beach that I didn’t like. Love the perspective the ocean gives to us tiny peoples. Love living near the mountains in the Hudson valley too.
	5:06pm Tom from Stirling: C'mon, the ocean is beautiful. Great energy in the waves. The sound of the waves. Best time for the beach is about an hour before sunset. No crowds. Very peaceful.
	♥ 5:06pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: I love the mountains, and it's hard to beat finding like really cool bodies of water and waterfalls where there's also plenty of shade. With that said, there can be some really cool things down by beaches. The bays are underrated usually, and I love the more "natural" beaches, so to speak, instead of ones right in municipalities. It's nice when you're just surrounded by nature and wildlife like at an Island Beach State Park, Sandy Hook, or south Jersey natural areas like in Strathmere or Brigantine. Also Great Kills in Staten Island, which is one of my secret go-to summer spots. Never crowded, even on the busiest weekends. Also a protected beach, so you can swim. And now you can legally spark up in NYS anywhere that allows tobacco smoking.
	🍝 ♥ 5:06pm chris in the redwoods: all the bodies of water! live near the ocean, and love love walking on the beach. even puppers goes bonkers at the beach. love hiking to mountain lakes. love streams and rivers. i must live near water, or things will go poorly.
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...resisting commenting on asking NJ people about beaches - but I'm up here in NH hills & I'll stifle that...
	5:07pm julian in LA: people at the beach also dont always have to suck. you just have to know what beach to go to. if you go to a d-bag beach there will be d-bags there. it does'nt mean only d-bags go to the beach and that only d-bag beaches exist
	🍝 ♥ 5:07pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: ranklings 1. Mountains 2. Deserts 3. Beaches 4. Forests
	🍝 ♥ 5:08pm Niall: Must ask again - Olivia, what's playing under you as you talk at 5:08pm NY time?
	♥ 5:08pm tim from champaign (now washington): Matt - Why you hate the beach?
	5:08pm kevlicki: Julian in LA- Maine beaches are full of rocks. Really nice
	♥ 5:08pm Yes: are we talking miami beach or coastal washington beach?
	♥ 5:09pm queems: that's why you have to go to a beach that has stuff around. i'm not a beach sitter. i have to walk around and eat trash and do a skeeball
	♥ 5:09pm Ryansterlingvirtue: I second Matt.
	♥ 5:09pm Rev. Turnip Druid: The new place is a short walk to baltimore's inner harbor. Sitting on federal hill & gazing down at a distance, that's groovy. But that's a river jam; still water, as part of a bigger scene.
	5:09pm Imgur: I'm about to listen to this very show while running on the beach. I predict it will rule
	5:09pm brainiac: If you're sitting like a lizard, you're doing it wrong.
	5:09pm julian in LA: i love rocky beaches and sandy beaches. I have some hidden spots in Malibu that i go to that are free and empty of all d bags lol
	♥ 5:09pm RomanDogBird: tv rules
	🍝 ♥ 5:10pm Krys O.: I grew up living near the Long Island Sound. We could go to Rye Beach almost every day during the summer. Hop on a bus or get a ride. This was the 60s through the 70s. The water and sand were relatively clean. It was relaxing to lay in the sun and then swim to the float at the edge of the cordoned off area. I wouldn't go now because of pollution and crowds. My friends and I would go to the beach in the winter to have a picnic and fly kites...
	5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Getting sunfried is deffo a thing - but that happens in the Forest too...
	♥ 5:10pm queems: omg take a beach nap
	♥ 5:10pm Webhamster Henry: I am such a beach comber. I LOOOOVE the sound of the water, and watch sandbars and dig up clams and throw them back, and digging holes. I can bike to a beach (Hudson river, although it's an estuary). It's coated with water chestnut spikes, though.
	🍝 ♥ 5:10pm listener james from westwood: No lie, was eyeing Asbury for a beach day this Wednesday, or at least a boardwalk day.
	🍝 ♥ 5:10pm Handy Haversack: An expert witness on the Matt position! Chair and a shade make a big difference to me. So I can read between swims. I do love to swim, though.
	♥ 5:10pm ョヱ k: YES TALK ABOUT SURVIVOR, ROTFL
	🍝 ♥ 5:10pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @niall this is Jon hassell
	5:10pm julian in LA: maybe some people just dont like nature. that's the world we live in lol
	5:10pm castor: @tim I admit I have only been to the Chicago beach so i can’t say you’re wrong, but I still feel like it would not impress me personally as much as an ocean beach. Ishmael had a beautiful argument about the Great Lakes being just as cool as the ocean in Moby Dick though.
	♥ 5:10pm queems: i want to do metal detector stuff on a beach
	5:11pm kevlicki: The ocean is happening Matt
	5:11pm Ryab: Galveston smells like a dumper. I like to walk along and people watch with people.
	🍝 ♥ 5:12pm Krys O.: Living 35+ years in New Jersey, I have never visited the Shore. I loved Cape Cod too.
	5:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I lived in SantaBarbara ...there's oil stuff sometimes - but damn man - smell yerself awlready ! :P ...
	🍝 ♥ 5:12pm Ken From Hyde Park: Also not in the beach sitting camp. I can walk all day along the beach. Sitting through sunrise or sunset, I could do.
	5:12pm ?: ill go to the beach everyday if theres one nearby go in the water for 5, 10 minutes tops then leave. often twice a day. why people stay there all day is beyond me. if i wanna chill outside and read a book or something ill do it in the shade.
	♥ 5:12pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: You're wrong about no TV at the beach! You can get portable TV tuners for your phone and laptop and hook it up to an antenna for over-the-air television. One of these days when the Yankees are on Pix11, I'm going to watch some of the game at Ruby's and then watch the rest on the beach on my phone or computer. Definitely agree too about how I really don't like going to the beach just to sit there and do nothing the whole time.
	♥ 5:12pm Phillippe: the sulfur smell in the Florida Keys at low tide can be challenging, but I don't even mind that all that much since I know I'm in The Keys when I smell it. I love the beach...
	5:12pm julian in LA: There's lots of things you can do at the beach. sitting around and doing nothing is something that never occurs to me. go for a run, find seashells, go surfing, build a sand castle play frisbee, write a novel
	🍝 ♥ 5:13pm Krys O.: Also Rye Beach is next to Playland amusement park with a gorgeous boardwalk.
	5:13pm Glistener MW: A: yes, yes I do! 🌴
	5:13pm Tom from Stirling: Sitting or standing at the edge of the beach letting the waves come over your feet. C.mon, that's the life. Matt has a poor relationship with the ocean. Khorr's custard at Pt. Pleasant. Yes!
	♥ 5:13pm Yes: imgur.com...
	♥ 5:13pm Webhamster Henry: This is an educational segment.
	🍝 ♥ 5:13pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: amazing that the best Neil Young album has sparked such furious debate
	5:13pm kevlicki: Krys O- I spent summers on Cape Cod as a kid, my grandparents lived there, now my folks are there. Great place to visit and ride a bike...to the beach
	5:13pm castor: The coolest beach I went to was in Catania, Sicily, with bright blue water and huge volcanic rocks that you could swim around and maybe even get smashed up against.

	♥ 5:13pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Ocean City (MD) has the big annual motorcycle fest every year. So there's that. Nothing to do with thee oatchin.
	🍝 ♥ 5:13pm Handy Haversack: Nice, Rosey! You know how to live, pal!
	♥ 5:14pm queems: black sand beach on the big island of hawaii was next level and it had turtles
	🍝 ♥ 5:14pm Niall: Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: Ah! Ahhh! God, thank you. From "Vernal Equinox," right? That was driving me batty.
	5:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: RTD - annual bikers a thing in NH too... maybe the same ones I dunno...
	5:14pm less in red hook: I just went to the beach in NC. I'm not a huge beach person, but it's mostly because the ocean freaks me out. The beach itself is fine, but similar to Matt, I get kinda antsy and bored. But this time I brought a set of watercolors and did some painting. had a good time. found some nice shells
	🍝 ♥ 5:15pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @niall correct!
	🍝 ♥ 5:15pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: god, this song rips so hard
	5:15pm julian in LA: the best thing to do at the beach is listen to WFMU! MF'ers!
	🍝 ♥ 5:15pm Niall: "Toucan Ocean," got it. That was turning into a sore in my brain's mouth I couldn't stop chewing.
	♥ 5:16pm Ryansterlingvirtue: The last time I was at the nude beach in Jersey, on my way out I put on my WFMU shirt and some naked older dude was like "Oh man, love WFMU!"
	♥ 5:16pm Ryansterlingvirtue: I quickened my pace a little
	🍝 ♥ 5:16pm listener james from westwood: Would love to get back down to Naples, FL. Was there briefly for a wedding one March and it was like another planet. So beautiful. Would also love to see the Pacific again someday; in 1997 I drove all the way out, IIRC, Santa Monica Blvd, parked, walked out to the edge of the water, and put my hand in the Pacific for my first-ever time. (Later found out a friend did the same on his first visit. We're both Atlantic Ocean adjacent lifers, so it must've been some sort of primal urge to mingle the waters.)
	♥ 5:16pm Phillippe: @Rev Turnip Druid took my boys down the ocean years ago when the bike thing was happening and could not find a single hotel room, even as far north as Dewey. The place is nuts that week.
	🍝 ♥ 5:17pm Ken From Hyde Park: Beaches provide a place for all that plastic to wash up. The stuff that escapes the garbage patch out in the middle.
	5:17pm castor: You could always bring a lemon and play “Catch the Lemon” in the waves, or bring a 40 into the waves and float it around to your friends
	🍝 ♥ 5:18pm Krys O.: We also used to go to beaches in Connecticut like Sherwood Island. That was my favorite. It had sand dunes.
	♥ 5:18pm nathan: at Culebra beach in Puerto Rico, I found a derelict tank from WWII with "Wake & Bake" graffiti on it, while i was wearing my Wake hat. it was super duper exciting
	🍝 ♥ 5:18pm chris in the redwoods: "Wait, WFMU DJs play CAN? I'm sorry for the confusion, we had no idea. Non-profit status confirmed," the Jersey City tax collector should say.
	🍝 ♥ 5:19pm Baja Joe: I prefer the deep woods to the beach. Not a fan of bright sun and overly warm weather and prefer the cool dark recesses of the forests.
	♥ 5:19pm TDK60: Hello Olivia. Someone said I can get Music Appreciation credits here.
	♥ 5:19pm olivia: lol @Chris!
	♥ 5:19pm nathan: @chris, speaking of CAN, anybody see this? www.nytimes.com...
	♥ 5:20pm queems: wfmu is so educational i can't even get my letter below 300 words
	🍝 ♥ 5:20pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @nathan yea, stoked!!!
	♥ 5:20pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @philippe: indeed. OC bike week is supposed to be the biggest one in the universe, or something. I've never been, but thinking about hitting the next one, for kicks, since I'm on such a dinky little machine (which I love) .. & see how much abuse I can attract
	🍝 ♥ 5:20pm Krys O.: @kevlicki: I went several times to Cape Cod with my oldest sister and her first husband. This is bringing up more memories. I went to Long Island to visit my other sister in the 70s. Mastic Beach, Orient Point, Patchogue. Great times.
	♥ 5:20pm Phillippe: @listener James from westwood a handful of years ago I worked on a project for an Italian oil and gas company and that year I got to dip my toe in the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic, Pacific, and Arctic Oceans. What a year for a beach guy!
	🍝 ♥ 5:21pm Krys O.: I miss swimming...
	♥ 5:22pm Phillippe: @rev turnip druid hey, its as much about the leather than the bike. dress appropriately!
	♥ 5:22pm Yes: love this jam
	🍝 ♥ 5:22pm chris in the redwoods: whoa! thanks, nathan. that is very cool.
	5:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: OK - but always thinking - avoid a Hell's Angel if you can - & let him have his way if I can't... Or offer him Enochian Magick Cake...
	5:24pm Stillwell Coney Islander: I grew up in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn which is surrounded by beaches. Manhattan Beach, Brighton Beach, Plumb Beach, Gerritsen Beach, the community college I went to was built on Manhattan Beach (Kingsbourgh Community College) that's all we knew as kids. Beaches, boating and fishing.
	♥ 5:25pm joseloalter: I went to an inland beach in Asturias, northern Spain. The actual shore is like half a mile away, but the sea water flows inland through underground caves and resurfaces creating a lovely little beach in the middle of a field. Ideal for people who don’t love the conventional ideal of “the beach.”
	♥ 5:25pm Ryansterlingvirtue: loving these jammers today
	♥ 5:25pm Rev. Turnip Druid: OK, I'll admit to ONE BEACH i dug & could stay for hours, and that was the north coast of Sjælland, Denmark. In autumn. Best fish ever, best beer ever, best climate ever. What the hell is that water anyway, the north sea? That. Great stuff. So you get ONE BEACH outta me.
	5:26pm Tom from Stirling: This is fun. Good ,clean WFMU fun. And the music is good too.
	5:26pm julian in LA: one of the most magical beaches in the world is Fort Tilden. It's a total dump compared to anywhere in CA, but I miss it so much... it's so damn cool
	🍝 ♥ 5:27pm Handy Haversack: Main problem for us with local beaches is that we can't bring the dog, which puts a timer on the whole endeavor.
	🍝 ♥ 5:27pm Niall: @Baja Joe: amen!
	♥ 5:28pm queems: jacob riis used to be my beach of choice when i lived in queens. brighton beach when i lived in brooklyn
	5:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...not saying all Bikers @ Bike Week are Angels. But there are Angels...
	♥ 5:28pm Rev. Turnip Druid: have loved that can track for decades. it seriously does NOT get old. thankee.
	5:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Stays fresh in the Can. Yessir.
	🍝 ♥ 5:29pm Niall: Though I'm fortunate to live maybe ten, fifteen minutes' walk from the sea and forty-five minutes' walk to the mountains.
	🍝 ♥ 5:29pm Handy Haversack: For REALS, Rev.! queems, getting to Riis is generally complicated enough for us that we default to Coney Island.
	♥ 5:30pm Rev. Turnip Druid: oh, Rabbit, I'm hoping for a nice even mix of angels & devils, there. Keeps both sides honest. Or something.
	5:30pm brainiac: I just wrote "WFMU is so educational" 75 times. Now where do I send it?
	🍝 ♥ 5:30pm Niall: And hours' drive from any truly interesting restaurants.
	♥ 5:30pm Mike W: Handy — yes yes on dogs and beaches. I’ve got a family trip with dog to a place in/near Rehoboth Beach planned for September.
	5:30pm castor: I grew up vacationing at the Delaware beaches, particularly Bethany, and it made me love not just the beach but the whole nautical life. I loved diving into the waves and every once in a while going through the “spin cycle” and washing up on shore with sand all up in my bathing suit.
	🍝 ♥ 5:31pm Niall: @Mike W what I'd do for some fresh Dogfish Head!
	♥ 5:31pm queems: @handy i always had to go with a friend who had a car, otherwise it was a no from me. i actually was there a couple weeks ago to walk around and put pokemon in gyms. the ferry to rockaway beach is a total game changer though. so pleasant
	🍝 ♥ 5:31pm Handy Haversack: Wow, the Bandcamp description: "Twelve inches of evidence of a whirlwind Philadelphia weekend.. They wrote and recorded the record and played a gig and consumed a dozen burritos and a pile of beer and shipped a fella back to Omaha.. The audacious ad-hoc 4 piece ragged combo put in the sleepless 48 hours and this is what we get: 2 raw sides of electric rock action jammed with all the humbucked girth, single-coil screech & low down thud a Tascam 388 can handle. Today’s necessary palate cleanser."
	5:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Have talked to Musicians who have played for Angels - & said they're Good Time people. But you must play Dead. & there's Big Guns @ the door. Oh & the one mean one with one hand. Kewl but Thanks No Thanks.
	5:32pm Oregon bob: I love the beach!!! But it’s Oregon:)
	♥ 5:32pm Carmichael: I used to surf out here semi-regularly before I got old and unbalanced.
	♥ 5:32pm TDK60: Coney Island beach would be good for a meetup of NYC woofmooers, closest beach. It's still the lower harbor though so minimal to no waves. Plenty of room toward the west.
	♥ 5:32pm Phillippe: @Niall technically, I have a beach right outside my door, but its about a foot of mud down to the sand. we live on a river that opens into the Chesapeake Bay. There's a nice community beach that's maybe a 10 minute walk that is on the Bay. I've been in heaven since we moved here
	5:33pm julian in LA: i love Riis. I'm a sucker for all that NYC reconstruction BS
	♥ 5:33pm Rev. Turnip Druid: preference would be devils, certainly speaking of which, re-watched an old favorite (glory stompers, 1967) -- it only gets better with age... The peak of Casey Kasem's career, that was.
	♥ 5:33pm Carmichael: @Oregon bob, I used to go out to Haystack Rock in Pacific City. Or at least the brewery next to the rock ...
	🍝 ♥ 5:34pm Handy Haversack: queems, true! But I think in the summer it gets totally overwhelmed. Two-hour waits to board, I have heard. Ferries are pretty inefficient. Max. capacity is only eighty-eight. We used it in the fall, though, just to ride around and talk with friends and have some beers, and it was great. Walked to the beach, looked at the ocean, had a drink, came back to the ferry. Even then, it was very crowded.
	5:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: RTD - HBD Dennis Hopper !
	🍝 ♥ 5:35pm Niall: @Phillippe: Neat! What's it like in August?
	5:37pm brainiac: @Carm: Had a great time staying across the street from Pelican Brewing at Cape Kiwanda. Can't wait to get back there.
	♥ 5:37pm queems: @handy we've definitely gotten lucky with our ferry timing. it does get extremely crowded. these days it doesn't make sense for me to go to nyc beaches unless i'm specifically meeting a friend
	🍝 ♥ 5:38pm Niall: Last night I heard that "Where There's a Whip, There's a Way" song from Ralph Bakshi's "Return of the King (I think)", and y'know, I'll be damned, song's kind of a banger. Wah-wah guitar in Middle Earth!
	♥ 5:38pm Carmichael: Pelican! That's it.
	5:38pm brainiac: @Carm: Did you run down the giant hill of sand?
	♥ 5:38pm queems: also re: letter, is 318 words acceptable? i've pared it down as far as it can go
	♥ 5:39pm Carmichael: Didn't get the pleasure, brainiac.
	5:39pm brainiac: After a few beers, it gets quite comical.
	5:39pm brainiac: Then the compound fractures wreck it for everyone.
	♥ 5:40pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @niall -- it's also one hell of a sticky earworm. Now I must go re-watch that one..
	5:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Niall - RankinBass Hobbit ! :D
	🍝 ♥ 5:41pm Niall: Rev. Turnip Druid: Whuh-PSHH!
	♥ 5:42pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: Ha, thanks, Handy! Got distracted with some stuff and forgot to check the comments board, haha. I really make those trips adventures too by bringing my bicycle on a bus or train. And to Tom from Stirling's point, especially because I get cold easily and may not always want to swim, how could you not enjoy standing where the waves are washing up onto the shore while sipping on a beer? Fun grabbing a six pack from Coney Island Brewery. I was actually down there with my dog for a little a few weeks ago. Plumb Beach is also a cool little place, Stillwell. Nice stop along the greenway.
	♥ 5:42pm Rev. Turnip Druid: of course that version of Hobbit leads to the mandatory double-feature with Bakshi's WIZARDS, and if we're going in that deep, delivery curry & beersies, and all the trimmings..
	🍝 ♥ 5:42pm Niall: Rev Rabbit: Oh, was it not Bakshi? I remember it being so cheap-looking with so much reused animation, I assumed it was his!
	🍝 ♥ 5:43pm Niall: Oh man maybe there needs to be a WFMU Discord server!
	5:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Niall - split the error - RankinBass 'Return of King'...
	🍝 ♥ 5:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: Don't forget to add comments about Monty Hall in the education letters. A place for community gathering and all.
	🍝 ♥ 5:43pm Niall: RTD: "Wizards," right. I suspect I've made this mistake many times over the years.
	5:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: tolkiengateway.net...
	♥ 5:44pm queems: @kfhp yes!! if i had had more space i def would have
	🍝 ♥ 5:45pm Niall: Nice one, Rabbit. I'd take that over anything sung in the Peter Jackson fillums.
	♥ 5:45pm Rev. Turnip Druid: the two films are forever tied in my brain. MANDATORY double-feature, with wizards as the conclusion. alternatively, wizards/heavy metal .. that killer orb in the taxi...
	5:46pm brainiac: @queems: Do what I do and delete word spaces until you're under the limit.
	♥ 5:47pm queems: @brainiac i def deleted every adjective in the whole letter
	🍝 ♥ 5:47pm Niall: Hide a simple cipher in your letters and say you learned about them on WFMU!
	♥ 5:47pm Phillippe: @Niall pretty humid! Unfortunately August is when the beaches get a little dicey, as the stinging sea nettles move in and the horse flies arrive. where we are (the confluence of the Magothy, Little Magothy, and Chesapeake Bay, just north of Annapolis) water is wide but not very deep except for the channels. You can walk in waist deep water almost a quarter mile directly from the shore.
	5:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Actually rate the RankinBass 'Hobbit' highly ! Then Bakshi started 'Lord of the Rings' ...not great. Then R&B did 'Return' - also not exceptional... But 'Wizards' is weirdly uniquely great. 'Heavy Metal' - just so much lesser than the Magazine - hard to get past that...
	5:48pm brainiac: WFMUissoeducational
	♥ 5:48pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: Ryansterlingvirtue, ha, I went there once! Swear I was just thinking about it last night. Went because nudity makes everything funnier. Was definitely weird when it was actually time to just drop my trunks in public though! Gotta get back some time. Nice spot too because I should be able to easily pick up TV signals from the Freedom Tower. Hope WFMU would come in, I guess on 91.1 in that location? There are some classic rock stations around there at least, and you can simulcast The Boss on MeTV (WJLP)'s frequency and get digital sound. Channel 33.13 has The Boss on radio while 33.10 is this really awesome weather channel with The Boss in the background. There are some other radio station simulcasts on that frequency too. You need extra-long antenna elements though because WJLP is a low-v channel on RF channel 3. The More You Know.
	♥ 5:48pm Webhamster Henry: In my support letter, I mentioned the WFMU Chatboard as an informative and civil experience.
	🍝 ♥ 5:49pm Niall: This ^^^
	♥ 5:49pm Rev. Turnip Druid: was the perfect age when wizards was released, must have seen it in theater a trillion times.
	♥ 5:49pm Webhamster Henry: AND EDUCATIONAL!
	♥ 5:49pm Rev. Turnip Druid: that Strie thing was AY PLUS PLUS
	♥ 5:50pm TDK60: I'm gonna put in my letter that they even have Welsh music.
	🍝 ♥ 5:51pm Niall: This Monokultur would sit perfectly on the Alien Americana premium from a couple years ago. Bandcamp, here I come.
	🍝 ♥ 5:52pm Niall: TDK60: Smart! Compound words and you'll save on vowels!
	♥ 5:52pm olivia: Really beautiful album by monokultur Niall! glad you dig!
	5:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Apologies for blabbing about everything but the playlist ! It is of course marvelous.
	♥ 5:53pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Accokeek! Piscataway country represent!
	🍝 ♥ 5:53pm listener 126464: Thank you Olivia!
	♥ 5:54pm chresti: Thank you Ms. Olivia, I really enjoyed the ravioli music class!
	🍝 ♥ 5:55pm Niall: Jantar "Sempronia" doesn't appear to be on BC, but there are other titles, and I've heard none of them. Any recommendations?
	♥ 5:56pm TDK60: Thanks Olivia.
	♥ 5:56pm Ryansterlingvirtue: Great show today, Olivia!
	🍝 ♥ 5:57pm chris in the redwoods: thanks, Olivia!
	5:57pm brainiac: What a great show. Let's do this again next week, eh wot?
	🍝 ♥ 5:57pm Handy Haversack: Gah, so late! Slowed down because I had been overposting -- but for a good cause! Rosey, those are awesome tips! queems, let's plan a beach meet-up some time. You and K8 have very similar beach philosophies! There's what we call the "hipster bus" that we have used to go to Rockaway or Tilden that is pretty cool. They rent chairs and umbrellas and even give you a beer! Thanks, Olivia! Great stuff! Much appreciated. Several things Entered the Wishlist.
	🍝 ♥ 5:57pm Krys O.: Thanks, Olivia and everyone! Arf!
	♥ 5:57pm Phillippe: Thanks Olivia! Wishing you more sand between your toes!
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: TY AudioPasta Master Olivia for the Sounds & Hosting this space !

	♥ 5:58pm tim from champaign (now washington): Thanks, Olivia! See you at the beach!
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hullo Dawgie.
	🍝 ♥ 5:58pm Niall: Be cool, Hamish; be cool.
	♥ 5:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Mother Sky does the same thing with myself, promise.
	5:58pm brainiac: Take that dog walkies tout suite.
	🍝 ♥ 5:59pm Jason from Houston: Stay beachy, good people! There are beaches on rivers, too! Love y'all!
	🍝 ♥ 5:59pm G: Some dog people call it, when a dog does that, "the zoomies."
	🍝 ♥ 5:59pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: thanks for the show!
	🍝 ♥ 5:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Educator Olivia!
	♥ 5:59pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: Ha, thanks, Handy. One benefit of being autistic is that when I get interested in something, I get REALLY interested in it, haha. I find out all sorts of cool stuff. I'd be down to do a beach thing some time too and would probably try bringing my dog. He's over 16, so he only has so much time left. Rescue dog too. What a lucky dog. Love him so darn much. He's in bed with me right now, sleeping. Loving the dog, speaking of which, Olivia! Go have a good night now! Thanks for the show.
