Listener comments!
	4:59pm John R.: Hi Space Brother Greg and everybody!😊
	5:00pm spacebrother: Hey John!
	♥ 5:02pm Aitch: Happy morning themes
	5:02pm spacebrother: Yo, Aitch!
	5:03pm chillroom: Oh boy ! Disasters! I used to get excited about World Book Encyclopedia Yearbooks because they would update the year's disasters! Hi everyone.
	5:04pm spacebrother: Hey Chill. I'm Chill.
	5:08pm John R.: I was told you should stand in a door way in the event of a quake. Not sure if that is still a good rule of thumb.
	5:09pm spacebrother: @ John, I read this morning that it's a bad idea. The door could hit you! Supposed to stay under a desk or table!
	5:09pm John R.: It almost sounds like John Keel ,
	5:10pm John R.: Thank you SBG!
	5:12pm John R.: What a warblerly tones…
	5:13pm John R.: Frickin creepy
	5:14pm spacebrother: This is one of the weirder songs on the list today. I love it.
	5:17pm John R.: SBG:👍
	5:21pm John R.: I never heard the beginning of this broadcast.
	♥ 5:33pm coelacanth∅: greetings Greg, spacebrothers & sisters
	5:35pm spacebrother: coelacanth∅ here in da haus. Hey!
	5:35pm Rasmoo in Pedro: You did it!! Great job with the research! Now I'm going to check my earthquake kit again....
	5:36pm spacebrother: @ Rasmoo - We ALL need to check our earthquake preparedness!
	5:37pm John R.: We have everything ready to go in case the wildfires get closer.
	5:38pm spacebrother: @ John - Where are you? NorCal? I know that Lassen fire is really big and not under control at all.
	5:40pm John R.: SBG: we’re in Placer County, North Lake Tahoe. Wre okay at the moment,but the AOI was 760 this morning. Better now (around 520)
	5:41pm John R.: The Dixie Fire is about 40% contained
	♥ 5:45pm coelacanth∅: regarding the hindenburg broadcast i've always assumed that newscasters would've been more likely to be human -show feeling - back then anyway, as males were a lot more manly then, and not as afraid to show weakness or feelings, in contrast to the insecure babies that are the standard american male now.
	♥ 5:46pm coelacanth∅: ...in fact i think as recent as the early 1970s a male being man enough to display such emotion wasn't that uncommon.
	5:47pm chillroom: Some really good digging here, Spacebrother. I know little of this music and I'm captivated.
	5:47pm spacebrother: @ John - Hope it goes well and please stay safe. What is "AOI?" Is that AQI?
	5:48pm spacebrother: Thanks, Mr. Chill. It's hard to stump you, so I'm happy.
	5:48pm Mr Fab: Durn, missed this show cuz i was in a meeting this whole time. Now THAT'S a disaster.
	♥ 5:50pm coelacanth∅: nice! i don't think i've ever heard an electric shamisen
	5:50pm spacebrother: Hey Mr. Fab! There's always the archive.
	5:51pm John R.: SBG: Thank you you Sir! AQI is Air Quality Index.
	5:51pm egould310: It’s just not the same without the word “Gitcheegoomee”.
	5:52pm John R.: Nice rendition
	5:52pm spacebrother: @ coelacanth∅ - It works surprisingly well. I wish he was singing too.
	5:53pm spacebrother: @ egould - Exactly. LOL.
	5:55pm spacebrother: @ John - Yeah, i though i missed something and looked it up. Hope you can breathe OK out there.
	5:57pm chillroom: Nice to hear a different track by Rabbit Brown than James Alley. A fitting place here. Still, any Rabbit Brown makes me want to hear the James Alley Blues.
	5:57pm spacebrother: Looks like I'll run a over a little again. Glad there's no show after me.
	5:57pm spacebrother: @ Chill - I hadn't heard of him until today!
	5:58pm John R.: SBG: We have n 95 masks , which helps a lot . Plus the masks help hide my turkey neck.😀
	6:00pm spacebrother: @ John - HA!
	6:01pm Mr Fab: OMG this is amazing!
	6:01pm egould310: Ironically, Jimmy was in prison for arson.
	♥ 6:02pm gitcheegoomee∅: Thanks spacebrother!
	6:03pm chillroom: I know it's off disaster topic, but Rabbit Brown only put out 4 records from 1927 to 1929. And the James Alley Blues may be the greatest record ever made. Great show.
	6:05pm spacebrother: Thanks youse guys!
	6:05pm John R.: Thank you SBG!
