	3:15am Scott67: G'day Brian & Currents! 😎🤙👣🐾🎵🎶📻☀️🌏
	3:16am Brian D: Greetings Scott! All!
	3:19am ! I X SpooKey !: BOO!
	3:21am ! I X SpooKey !: I'm scared!
	3:24am ! I X SpooKey !: I'm scared by how I don't have a little pumpkin!
	3:28am Mike W.: Thank ya for these proper late-night sounds ‘n vibes
	3:30am ! I X SpooKey !: Everybody should pledge & have a little pumpkin!
	3:30am Mike W.: I have this Slits on a promo 7? With an interview on other side? I’m asking but also telling
	3:36am Mike W.: NOT OFF A 7 INCH??? But but but It was also (or originally) on a CBS/Columbia white label radio promo thing
	3:37am Brian D: About half the show will be 7"s. Maybe more than half.
	3:40am Brian D: Amazingly, the Slits 7" of which you speak @Mike W. is not in the FMU record library. I say amazingly, because almost everything else is.
	3:41am Mike W.: You know we can’t see what you’re doing bc it’s radio “Sure that was off a 7 inch my dear listeners” etc
	3:42am Mike W.: Do we get to hear Mudhoney curse bc it’s 3:40am
	3:42am Mike W.: Yayyyyy
	3:43am Brian D: I care about you all too much to lie, Mike W.
	3:50am fred: Hello Brian and all
	3:55am Brian D: Fred!
	3:56am Scott67: G'day Fred! 😎🤙
	4:11am @julielinor: Morning Brian, Morning Everyone 🎶🙂
	4:13am fred: @Brian: I wonder whether the "single" name includes digital one-offs. Otherwise it would skew older (I think it does, to an extent), as there are not many 7" releases these days
	4:32am Toutevoix: ♡
	4:37am Mike W.: Ooh does the station have the blue vinyl of this 7?
	4:37am Brian D: It's not the one I'm playing, @Mike W.
	4:38am Mike W.: Should I stop asking
	4:41am Brian D: Never, Mike W. Always happy to answer, when I can.
	5:02am ?: Good morning Brian and all
	5:03am jinjabredboy: Let me try that again - Good morning!
	5:04am Scott67: G'day jinja!😎🤙
	5:06am jinjabredboy: Good day Scott!
	5:09am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Good Morning. Waking & sleeping & popping in & out @ turns - but appreciating.
	5:12am Brian D: Greetings Jinja, Rev.
	5:38am fred: I remember that sinking feeling that day when his show was replaced by an archive. I think Mary Wing was on the air before. I knew something was very wrong
	5:38am Brian D: Indeed. Gone far too soon.
	5:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: William Berger presented an intense Genre that no one any else did (or does) - a strong medicine available nowhere else - & yet was notably accessible & welcoming in it. He was opinionated - but completely approachable - even conversational & friendly about it - despite having a dedicated curators's & a specialist's command. I shared thots about the meanings of the Horror genre with him - not too many times, but he was engaged & intelligent in it. It's no mere coincidence he was widely beloved & will not be forgotten.
	5:57am Brian D: Well said, Rev. I never met him, but always learned a lot from his show.
	5:57am fred: I do remember a B-side from a U2 single, something like "Alex goes into hell for a bottle of milk". Probably didn't age well, but I loved it then
	5:59am Scott67: Thanks Brian! Take it easy all. ✌😎🤙🌏
	6:00am Brian D: Thank you all. Stay safe and have a great Sunday.
