Listener comments!
	3:02am Scott67: G'day Brian & Current Crew! 😎🤙🎶📻🌏
	3:08am shortshot: happy crimble evrybdy
	3:10am Brian D: Hello all! Welcome aboard.
	3:14am Cooh John: A rare visit with Currents. Totally enthused.
	3:16am Scott67: Hope you can get some sleep Cooh.J. ✌😎🤙
	3:17am Scott67: Hah! I read that as "totally exhausted". 😉🤙
	3:18am Cooh John: Currents will take me away, Scott. Good to see you.
	3:19am Cooh John: I did work 13 hours,
	3:22am Scott67: That's some work mate!😎🤙
	3:24am Cooh John: 14 hours yesterday.
	3:25am Scott67: I remember those days!
	3:31am brycepunk1: I always felt that song deserved more attention
	3:36am Brian D: The Stone Roses have a platform here on Currents, @bryce.
	3:37am Cooh John: Brian, I am reading "Humane How the United States Abandoned Peace and Reinvented War" by Samuel Moyn.
	3:42am Brian D: Heavy reading, there, Cooh John.
	4:21am morphe': Just realized this past week that you are the Brian of W&B News... The auto correct kept changing yer name to Brain !!!! Worse things have happened....
	4:23am Brian D: I've been called worse, Morphe. And yes, I am "Benevolent Brian."
	5:14am Brian D: Julie Green, artist: www.nytimes.com...
	⚡ 5:20am Don in Tampere: I'm sure he was singing something else, but it sounded all the world to me like he was singing "I love Gong" - and so do I
	5:27am Avrilinmay: Coincidentally, I have been wondering if I should ask around the boards here about some music mentioned in a book I am reading :) The novel is All the Naked Heroes by Alan Kapelner. I had never heard of him, but his wife, a contemporary dancer I discovered through a beautiful documentary talked about him with such love, I felt inspired to discover it. I will gloss over my opinions on the style not to make this post even longer than it already is. Except to mention that the main character is tortured by the thought of WWII, and the eerie feeling I always get when reading about things described that are atemporal. One of the passages mentioning songs: "He struck pure ragtime gold: Dixieland. Potato Head(..)bombed the room.." oh and John Cage is mentioned at some point !
	5:30am upstatesean: Interesting about Julie Green’s work
	5:34am Brian D: Don't know Kapelner, @Avril, but sounds worth exploring!
	5:35am Brian D: Richard Hammer obit: www.nytimes.com...
	5:36am Brian D: And Maureen Cleave: www.theguardian.com...
	5:37am Brian D: Take 2 on the Pre-Fab 4!
	5:39am Pablexa™: Sup?
	5:41am Avrilinmay: so glad I could offer a tiny thing that might be of interest, as a small thanks for all the beautiful music AND the news reporting; Take care of your mental health my lovelies.
	5:47am upstatesean: Hey Pabs, Nuttin
	5:48am upstatesean: Great show Brian
	5:50am Brian D: Thanks for the words, @upstate and @Avril. Glad you're enjoying the show.
	5:54am upstatesean: Norm Macdonald had a bit about when he performed at a facility for the criminally insane. He got on the stage and they all started yelling insults. And he started thinking “ I don’t know if these people even deserve a show! Some of them killed their whole families!” It’s better when he tells it 😀
	5:57am Brian D: Everything is better when Norm says it.
	5:57am Brian D: Or SAID it.
	5:57am Pablexa™: #WeAreBrummies
	5:57am Brian D: Thank you all for joining me. Stay safe and have a good week.
	5:58am Scott67: Thanks Brian!✌😎🤙🌏
	5:59am upstatesean: Question: do inmates on death row have the option of assisted suicide, so they don’t languish there for decades?
