Listener comments!
	12:00pm headcleaner: Plagwitz?
	🚂 ♥ 12:00pm Diana in Hungary: Greetings, David and all the riders!
	♥ 12:01pm Handy Haversack: Leaping from the platform so I can be with you, David and all the Voyageurs!
	♥ 12:01pm chresti: Morning David and continentals! Paraguay.
	♥ 12:02pm David Dichelle: Greetings Headcleaner, Diana, Handy, Chresti!
	♥ 12:02pm Jan Turkenburg: Hi everyone!
	♥ 12:02pm David Dichelle: Yes, it is Plagwitz, well spotted!
	♥ 12:02pm David Dichelle: Hello Jan!
	12:03pm Marie: Onboard! Guessing Lithuania. Greetings David and fellow travelers!
	♥ 12:03pm David Dichelle: Greetings, Marie!
	🚂 ♥ 12:04pm Diana in Hungary: I'm guessing Cuba today.
	♥ 12:05pm Alex In Illinois: Has Turkmenistan already been done?
	12:05pm YETI BOB: Hi Continentals. What are the odds we're going to the Faroe Islands today?
	♥ 12:06pm Handy Haversack: My Random Road Random Guess: U.S. Virgin Islands! (Unless that's too small, David? But there are 100K people, and their music has its own WikiP page, so I'm figuring it's in the mix!)
	12:06pm YETI BOB: Same as the odds for any other place we haven't been yet! That's the beauty of randomness
	12:06pm βrian: I'm still holding out for the Rustavi Choir.
	♥ 12:06pm Handy Haversack: It has, Alex.
	♥ 12:07pm Yvang: Hello David, travelers and travelorettes!
	🚂 ♥ 12:07pm Diana in Hungary: Alex in Illinois: you can see which countries have been done by scrolling down here: wfmu.org...
	♥ 12:08pm David Dichelle: Welcome Alex, Yeti Bob, βrian, Yvang!
	♥ 12:08pm Sem: Hello, David, and all aboard. On the random road, it's San Marino or bust.
	12:08pm YETI BOB: HI David. There's an extra '.' at the end of that URL
	♥ 12:08pm Stanley: Toot Toot!
	♥ 12:09pm David Dichelle: Yes, I think the Virgin Islands (both separately or together?) should find their way to the Random Road at some point.
	🚂 ♥ 12:09pm Diana in Hungary: Yes, I ended the sentence with a period and messed up the link. Here's the good link: wfmu.org...
	♥ 12:09pm David Dichelle: Salutations, Stanley, Sem!
	12:10pm YETI BOB: 249 countries and territories on the ISO list, we've done 57, so approx 192 to go (minus ones that will be disqualified)
	♥ 12:10pm David Dichelle: I'd say approximately 160 to go.
	♥ 12:10pm doctorjazz: Hi Riders!
	12:11pm βrian: I bet auto-correct thinks Sem is a 17-wheeler.
	♥ 12:11pm David Dichelle: Hey, Dr. J.!
	♥ 12:11pm Sem: rimshot
	♥ 12:11pm Handy Haversack: My sheet has 188.
	♥ 12:12pm David Dichelle: Yes, but disqualifications loom everywhere.
	♥ 12:12pm Alex In Illinois: Guinea-Bissau
	♥ 12:13pm Sem: Semi I seem.
	♥ 12:14pm Handy Haversack: The back-to-work / Thanksgiving / kitten-emergency cycle of crazy has resulted in my having two spreadsheets tracking the Road. The one at home has a better list of what's been noted as too small.
	🚂 ♥ 12:15pm Diana in Hungary: Oh, I am happy. Beautiful song, beautiful album.
	12:15pm YETI BOB: HH: I remember Bouvet Island is on the list. It's the most remote island in the world. I learn so much here.
	♥ 12:16pm Handy Haversack: And apparently Antarctica doesn't make the cut. Alas.
	♥ 12:17pm David Dichelle: Yes, the Random Road is a tough gig.
	12:21pm YETI BOB: HH: Right, but I dug up that photo of a Scotsman in full highland regalia playing bagpipe to the penguins. You had to fill in the sound with your imagination.
	12:22pm βrian: Nor Île de la Possession. There's some wild territory down there.
	12:23pm Carmichael: Heya David and freedom riders. I see someone snapped a pic of my home. At least they cleaned up a bit before doing so ...
	12:24pm βrian: Yep, literally a wringer, in Québec.
	♥ 12:24pm Handy Haversack: I'm meeting listener yerfriendpaul for lunch in 20 mins. We figured out just before the pandemic that our offices are only a few blocks apart! So I'll likely miss the Roud and maybe even the Random Road Reveal. But I have a good feeling about the U.S. Virgin Islands! Back with you all when I can.
	12:25pm YETI BOB: enjoy yr lunches YFP & HH!
	🚂 ♥ 12:26pm Michael 98145: Hello, Friends
	12:27pm Carmichael: Nepal!
	🚂 ♥ 12:27pm Diana in Hungary: Thank you for playing Cz.K. Sebő today! I don't know for sure what "Felzizeg" means--I will find out and let you know--but "zizeg" means "buzz" or "rustle," and the prefix "fel-" often means "out loud" when it precedes a verb having to do with a sound, so I think "felzizeg" means "it rustles out loud," or "it buzzes forth," or something along those lines.
	12:29pm Marie: I'm sorry if I missed this but what does the word "Lillibulero" mean?
	♥ 12:30pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Diana!
	♥ 12:31pm David Dichelle: Hello Carmichael and Michael!
	♥ 12:31pm Handy Haversack: Marie, WikiP says: "The song's title and the words of the refrain have been interpreted as a garbled version of the Irish words Lile ba léir é, ba linn an lá, "Lilly was clear and ours was the day". "
	♥ 12:31pm Handy Haversack: "The lily may be a reference to the fleur de lis of France, or to the most celebrated astrologer of the mid seventeenth century, William Lilly, who became well known for prophesy at this time and to whom could readily be attributed foreknowledge that a Catholic would be king of England.[7] Alternatively, the lyrics could mean, "Lilly is clear [about this], the day will be ours". It is also thought that "Lilli" is a familiar form of William, and that bullero comes from the Irish "Buaill Léir ó", which gives: "William defeated all that remained". Professor Breandán Ó Buachalla has claimed that they are a garbled version of the Irish sentence "Leir o, Leir o, leir o, leiro, Lilli bu leir o: bu linn an la, " which he translates as "Manifest, manifest, manifest, manifest, Lilly will be manifest, the day will be ours" referring to a possible prophecy of an Irish victory by the astrologer William Lilly.[8] "
	🚂 ♥ 12:34pm Diana in Hungary: Ooh, I like this version by The Yetties!
	🚂 ♥ 12:35pm Michael 98145: Jaunty
	12:35pm Marie: Hey Handy, wow, so interesting and informative, that info. is, thank you! It seems to me that that Professor prolly got it right.
	♥ 12:38pm Phillippe: Hey everyone! I'm going with Brazil yet again. If David was using a dart and throwing it at a map, I'd like my chances better
	🚂 ♥ 12:39pm Michael 98145: Whoop 'im with that stick
	♥ 12:39pm WR: @12:24 @Handy Haversack: Please give our greetings and best wishes to @yerfriendpaul. And thank you for the Wikipedia info on the roud 160. And hello David and all.
	♥ 12:40pm David Dichelle: Hey Phillippe! That dart has a life of its own...
	12:40pm Marie: Lovely tunes
	♥ 12:40pm David Dichelle: Hello, WR!
	12:40pm βrian: @Phillipe: It all depends on the cartographic projection, of course.
	12:42pm βrian: (My Dart has a slant-six and it pretty much goes where it pleases.)
	🚂 ♥ 12:42pm Diana in Hungary: I think the Jackie Oates is my favorite in this Roud! But it's a tough call.
	♥ 12:43pm David Dichelle: Yes, so many good versions of this one again.
	♥ 12:45pm Brian in UK: Hello David & travellers. Just heard that Robbie Shakespeare has passed. Younger than me.
	12:46pm Marie: A testament to strong woman, this is
	12:48pm YETI BOB: The Yetties! OK!!
	♥ 12:50pm coelacanth∅: greetings David and all
	♥ 12:50pm Bas NL: Hi David! Fellow passengers!
	♥ 12:52pm Bas NL: Oww.. Just missed De Vrede van Utrecht. A marked event in my hometown history.
	♥ 12:53pm David Dichelle: Hey Coel and Bas!
	♥ 12:53pm David Dichelle: Bas: Yes, it was a very short instrumental version of Lillibulero - blink your ears and you could miss it.
	♥ 12:58pm David Dichelle: Marie: That is a very good take on the song, in fact.
	♥ 1:02pm Bas NL: At the time of the signing of the many treaties they had a year and a half of cultural festivities. (De Vrede van Utrecht == The Peace(treaty) of Utrecht)
	1:03pm Marie: Why, thank you, David @). Loving this one!
	🚂 ♥ 1:04pm Diana in Hungary: This Amor Hafsouni is great.
	♥ 1:04pm Stanley: That Lyonaise Rai very good
	♥ 1:05pm David Dichelle: Yes, a great compilation.
	♥ 1:12pm David Dichelle: Bas: Yes, I believe the album features music connected to those events or at least the era.
	1:19pm Hubig Pie: Maghreb ? Morocco it is then and I say that's fine
	🚂 ♥ 1:20pm Diana in Hungary: There's a village in Hungary called Vámosgyörk, through which I have passed a number of times, but it has nothing to do with Vamos or Vámonos.
	1:21pm Marie: Neato. Apropos of not much, has anyone seen the German film, "Barbara"? I loved it
	♥ 1:22pm Bas NL: Before i rush home... my guess this week is Ghana!
	1:22pm Hubig Pie: Bonn, birthplace of Ludwig Von. On or about next week's show
	♥ 1:23pm David Dichelle: Hubig, that's right, he's hitting the old 251 next week.
	🚂 ♥ 1:24pm Diana in Hungary: Ooh! Die Irrlichter is one of my favorites today.
	🚂 ♥ 1:28pm Diana in Hungary: And this Madeleine Chartrand.
	♥ 1:29pm David Dichelle: Glad you like them!
	♥ 1:29pm coelacanth∅: this music's incredibly good!
	♥ 1:32pm David Dichelle: :-)
	♥ 1:34pm Woo: Huw sings Dŵr. Nice.
	♥ 1:35pm David Dichelle: Hey, Woo!
	1:36pm Will in Norman: I always end up tuning in after your roud segment, so pardon if you said this already today. But are you doing the roud index in order?
	♥ 1:37pm Handy Haversack: Well, we screwed that up. Apparently Paul was waiting outside the restaurant while I waited inside. Life. Don't talk to me about life.
	♥ 1:38pm David Dichelle: Hello Will, yes we are ascending the Roud ladder from week to week - although a few have to be skipped for lack of recordings.
	♥ 1:41pm David Dichelle: Handy, as long as you have your towel.
	1:41pm Will in Norman: OK good, that's what it looked like from the playlists. particularly looking forward to when you get to #299, the lincolshire poacher, mainly assuming that the shortwave numbers station version will be included in that 1
	♥ 1:42pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Will, a very good call - love those numbers stations!
	♥ 1:45pm Brian in UK: Is this The Beatles' Because?
	1:45pm Marie: Wow, what a great cover!
	♥ 1:45pm Brian in UK: Ofcourse it is.
	♥ 1:45pm David Dichelle: It is indeed!
	♥ 1:46pm Handy Haversack: ¿Porque no?
	🚂 ♥ 1:46pm Michael 98145: great
	1:48pm still b/p: Certainly wanted to hear from an outfit called Onom Agemo and the Disco Jumpers...but only got about two seconds of it just after tapping in. Omega Mono I get, but Srepmuj Ocsid is beyond my pay grade in important mystical terms and word-turns.
	♥ 1:48pm Phillippe: @handy the one damn time you need a cell phone...
	♥ 1:48pm Brian in UK: Gone are the days when Sixties pop stars recorded their hits in numerous European languages.
	♥ 1:49pm Handy Haversack: Social muscles still atrophied, I guess, Phillippe. We're going to try again next Thu.!
	♥ 1:50pm Phillippe: They still sell pagers...
	🚂 ♥ 1:51pm Michael 98145: ... i had one for years.
	♥ 1:51pm David Dichelle: Still b/p: There is surely a pearl of wisdom in there somewhere.
	1:53pm Marie: @Handy--I had a problem like that that kept recurring with one particular friend. It was strange, like, I didn't have that problem with other friends.
	1:54pm Hubig Pie: I watched a bit of the Beatles doc. That McCartney was a real task master
	♥ 1:55pm Handy Haversack: Well, it was pleasant to sit and listen to the sounds of a quintessentially (UWS) Manhattan restaurant for a little while. We're going to make it happen, though!
	1:55pm still b/p: The truth will set you eerf.
	♥ 1:56pm Phillippe: @Marie @handy I had that happen with one friend so many times I figured out they were more "friend" than friend, if you catch my drift
	1:56pm Marie: Yeah, the UWS still has a lot of old-school diners, and other stores, which I appreciate
	1:57pm Will in Norman: the long & winding random road, if you will
	♥ 1:57pm Handy Haversack: Itly! What's she doing in Itly?! Nice!
	1:58pm Marie: @Phillippe--I am not friends with that person anymore, sadly--realized it wasn't a real friendship
	♥ 1:58pm Handy Haversack: It's semantically impossible to not be friends with yerfriendpaul.
	1:59pm YETI BOB: But he's yer friend, not my friend!
	1:59pm YETI BOB: (j/k, he's a great guy and I'd like to be friends with him)
	🚂 ♥ 1:59pm Diana in Hungary: Well, Cuba is sort of like Italy in a couple of ways. Espresso is an essential beverage for both, and peninsulas are somewhat like islands at times.
	♥ 1:59pm Handy Haversack: He's yer friend now, YB!
	🚂 ♥ 2:00pm Michael 98145: Ciao, Bella
	♥ 2:01pm David Dichelle: Diana: They are also both major orange producers.
	♥ 2:03pm Phillippe: I was close. Both Brazil and Italy have flags, and the people in both countries eat food. Close enough for me
	♥ 2:03pm David Dichelle: Phillippe: Bonus points!
	♥ 2:04pm David Dichelle: Sem was closest of course, no country could be closer to another.
	♥ 2:04pm Phillippe: I'm both easily satisfied and a sore loser both at the same time. Some say that's a skill.
	♥ 2:04pm Handy Haversack: K8 and I used to have a free place to stay in Rome. Italy is definitely the friendliest country for your budget-conscious traveling vegetarian.
	♥ 2:05pm David Dichelle: Yes, I hear they have falafel and kebab.
	🚂 ♥ 2:05pm Michael 98145: I would love to return to Roma
	♥ 2:05pm Franco Twinkie: Is Falafel Express a chain?
	♥ 2:06pm David Dichelle: Franco: Don't know but it should be.
	♥ 2:06pm chresti: And pasta!
	♥ 2:07pm Phillippe: I grew up Catholic so you'd think I could stay at the Vatican for free, but apparently it doesn't work like that. Membership does not come with privileges
	2:07pm still b/p: I noted last week that 'I' was not represented in the "done so far" list. So here we go. But did I bet big lire today with a good I-guess? No sole mio.
	♥ 2:07pm Franco Twinkie: I remember only seen ONE restaurant in all of Rome that wasn't Italian food.
	♥ 2:08pm David Dichelle: It would be interesting to present a Vatican passport at a border somewhere - just to see the looks.
	♥ 2:08pm Franco Twinkie: The Vatican has it's own post office.
	🚂 ♥ 2:08pm Michael 98145: I suspect Mussolini wasn't open to 'ethnic' food
	♥ 2:09pm Phillippe: A Vatican City random road would be the easiest yet -- just throw a hymnal at it
	♥ 2:09pm Franco Twinkie: Italians tend to be kind of insular.
	♥ 2:10pm Handy Haversack: The very first time we ever traveled, back in 2000, after I'd won some money, we stayed for a few nights with the family of a woman K8 was waiting tables with. They lived in a villa outside of Florence. Its oldest parts were from the eleventh century. Her parents were sculptors, so there was art everywhere, and the family was reclaiming an olive orchard, so fresh oil was everywhere. Anyway, we went out with her sister and her BF to a "casa dei popolo." As it was explained to us, the communist partisans were much stronger around Tuscany, and when Mussolini fell, they stepped in and helped run things. So these were collective restaurants that would open on the weekends just so the farmers and people in these tiny towns could have a place to be together on the weekends for food, drink, dancing. So great. Massive plates of food for the equivalent of $2. And it was a Friday night, so fish for everyone. When I tried to get by just eating bread, Paolo took me with him back into the kitchen and explained everything, and minutes later I had a FEAST of porcini pasta. Fantastic experience. And a great collective endeavor that feels increasingly unreal in a more and more atomized-by-capitalism world.
	2:10pm βrian: Just started watching a gangsta series that involves the Vatican. Interesting background music.
	🚂 ♥ 2:10pm Diana in Hungary: Italy is a favorite travel destination for Hungarians, for obvious reasons (seacoast, real pizza, proximity, Dante).
	♥ 2:10pm chresti: The first time I stayed Europe in the 80s, eating vegetarian meant beaucoup de fromage
	2:11pm Hubig Pie: I hearin' The Pogues
	♥ 2:11pm Phillippe: semi-random fact I learned today that may be appropriate for our international bunch: the people who speak English as a second language outnumber those who speak it as their first language by 4 to 1
	2:12pm Carmichael: Yep, me too Hubig. Sally MacLennane.
	♥ 2:12pm Franco Twinkie: Next to Italy, Hungary has my favorite food.
	♥ 2:13pm Bas NL: Hi again! Italia!
	♥ 2:13pm David Dichelle: Lots of influences in the Italian folk scenes.
	🚂 ♥ 2:13pm Michael 98145: Great story @Handy
	♥ 2:13pm David Dichelle: Welcome back, Bas!
	2:13pm still b/p: Catacomb space could be monetized by Rome-region Catholics. NearlyAirlessBNB.
	♥ 2:13pm Stanley: Great story Handy. Italian cuisine is no problem for vegetarians. Unlike Spain where they think pork is a seasoning. As in 'salt and pepper sir? Pork?'
	♥ 2:14pm Phillippe: Ha, Stanley, I love that!
	2:15pm βrian: For a while hear in the US, it was a trend for celebrity chefs to add bacon to every dish. Bacon!
	♥ 2:15pm chresti: Phillippe, not surprised.
	♥ 2:15pm Phillippe: @still b/p surprised that hasn't occurred yet, tbh
	🚂 ♥ 2:15pm Michael 98145: Not much Sin Jamón in Spain
	♥ 2:17pm Stanley: Jamón - exactly Michael
	♥ 2:17pm Phillippe: I still don't get the inclusion of pork belly as a dish. "You want some meat with your fat?"
	🚂 ♥ 2:18pm Diana in Hungary: Franco Twinkie: I love the food here too. My city (Szolnok) has an annual goulash festival, and it's serious goulash, of many varieties, from around the country.
	🚂 ♥ 2:18pm Michael 98145: @Phillippe, bacon w/ pretenses
	♥ 2:18pm Stanley: Phillippe - Pork is nothing without its lovely, lovely fat.
	♥ 2:19pm Stanley: (not quite true, as I loves me Jamón)
	♥ 2:20pm Handy Haversack: Diana, we once flew to Rome via Budapest on Malev! Nice sandwiches on that airline. Very friendly. K8 finally did notice we were going the long way round, but it was much the cheapest option.
	🚂 ♥ 2:20pm Michael 98145: ( have to agree )
	♥ 2:20pm Franco Twinkie: Handy, I stayed at an old olive farm outside of Sienna. It was fun to cook in the farm house kitchen. One day I was going to grill rabbit outside, but it started raining like crazy so I cooked them on a spit in the living room fireplace. It's good to eat like a savage when everyone is drunk on local Italian wine.
	2:20pm βrian: Hear, hear: "here"
	♥ 2:20pm Bas NL: My experience with Barcelona/Spain is there must be severe punishment for serving less then perfect food.
	♥ 2:21pm Phillippe: @michael @stanley I first tried pork belly at a Korean restaurant, and is just struck me as a slab of fat that didn't have enough meat in it to call it bacon. And it was the main dish. Ugh. Bulgogi, please...
	♥ 2:23pm Stanley: Phillippe - the Italians love their lardo.
	2:23pm βrian: Which reminds me of the Korean restaurant nearby which offers a certain dish with a "slap of bacon." That costs extra, naturally.
	♥ 2:24pm Handy Haversack: My man in Edinburgh, whose mother and grandparents are Spanish, describes Madrid food as a sausage perfectly made in Barcelona that is then inserted between horse and saddle blanket and ridden very slowly to Madrid and served to you cold.
	♥ 2:26pm Bas NL: That's a vivid description Handy! :)
	♥ 2:26pm Franco Twinkie: A new food court just opened last week right down the street. Gobs of grilled meat is offered at the Korean place.
	2:26pm still b/p: I'd love a Spanish song telling the sausage road-trip and disappointment story with Flamenco vocal intensity.
	♥ 2:27pm David Dichelle: This one (Ganes) is in the Ladin language of Northern Italy.
	♥ 2:27pm Stanley: I don't know whether it still goes on but in Spain it was the law to provide cheap wholesome lunchtime meals in restaurants Mondays to Fridays for the workers (and bone idle backpackers)
	♥ 2:28pm chresti: Good thing I didn't have sausage when I was in Madrid.
	🚂 ♥ 2:28pm Diana in Hungary: What a voice and mood (Ganes).
	♥ 2:29pm Handy Haversack: Visceral memories of being on the Sunday-night BCN-EDI flight with a high fever and the plane packed full of lads coming back from their weekends. Pro tip: Don't let your companion say "Please be quieter. My boyfriend has a fever." It will not help matters. Agreed, Diana.
	♥ 2:30pm Stanley: Handy - my comiserations.
	🚂 ♥ 2:30pm Michael 98145: This is loverly
	2:30pm Carmichael: Clannad.
	♥ 2:31pm Franco Twinkie: Handy, the only place I've ever gotten food sick travelling thru is The United States.
	♥ 2:32pm David Dichelle: Sammastianu is Sicilian.
	2:33pm still b/p: chresti -- the one you ordered when you were there is just arriving at table now.
	2:34pm Carmichael: Mrs. Carmichael got food poisoning in Dublin. Undercooked pork was my guess. She doesn't drink either, so she couldn't have a glass of "what ails ya".
	♥ 2:34pm chresti: In Madrid, our hotel room was across the street from an all-night Flamenco bar.
	♥ 2:34pm Phillippe: Biggest issue I have since we moved to Annapolis is the dearth of decent ethnic foods. There are a couple good Indian places, a good Thai restaurant/donut shop, some random sushi, and good Mexican place in a gas station (the Mexxon). No Korean, no Ethiopian, no Brazilian. Going out to dinner tonight and the closest thing we could find to unique food is an oyster bar.
	♥ 2:37pm chresti: Haha still b/p!
	2:38pm Funky16Corners: Hey David!
	2:38pm Carmichael: @Phillippe, Rodizio Grill on Annapolis RD. Churasco house!
	♥ 2:38pm Bas NL: This reminds me of... what... Fisher-Z?
	♥ 2:38pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Larry!
	♥ 2:39pm Franco Twinkie: Phillippe, the first Thanksgiving I spent away from home was in Annapolis. I went to a party where the turkey was stuffed with clams from The Chesapeake Bay. It was beyond amazing. Then I took the train to NYC and gorged myself on ethnic food.
	2:39pm Funky16Corners: Testify! Coming up at 3pm- https://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/110491
	2:40pm Carmichael: This sounds a lot like the Tannahill Weavers.
	2:40pm Will in Norman: Is this the german dialect? Sehr interresant
	♥ 2:42pm David Dichelle: Yes, it is a dialect of German, but really a different language at that point, I'd say.
	2:45pm βrian: And, really, what could go wrong with turkey was stuffed with clams? I bet it is tasty, though.
	♥ 2:46pm Bas NL: Never knew there was so much happening in Italian music! My grandmother always had Italian music on, but that was not so diverse..
	♥ 2:46pm Phillippe: That sounds awesome, Franco. One of my family Thanksgiving traditions back in the day was for the men in the family to slouch in a back room in the basement and slurp oysters. I'm pretty much the only raw oyster lover in the family now, though, so that went by the wayside.
	🚂 ♥ 2:47pm Michael 98145: This has been great
	♥ 2:48pm Phillippe: Ok, my friends, I am off to my Covid booster. Wish me luck. If it kicks my butt like it did my bride, I'll see y'all on Saturday ;) Thanks David!
	♥ 2:48pm Handy Haversack: What Michael said! I might need to go back and listen again. Some distractions around this place. Work needs to get its priorities straight.
	2:48pm Hubig Pie: Be sure to remove shells before stuffin' the bird. 'Erster' dressing was the New Orleenz spec-ial-ity
	♥ 2:48pm Stanley: See you Phillippe. Bon courage.
	♥ 2:49pm Handy Haversack: Boost up, Phillippe!
	♥ 2:49pm Bas NL: Good luck, Phillippe!
	♥ 2:49pm chresti: Good luck Phillippe, it knocked me for a loop for a day or two.
	2:50pm Marie: Yes, great story, above, Handy! I have some good Italy stories too--not quite as bellissima as yours, but can't tell em right now. Too busy with work @(. @). Thanks, David for another fantastic show!
	2:50pm Hubig Pie: Phillippe, the boost kicked my boo-tay. I had no reaction to the first 2 doses
	♥ 2:51pm Stanley: In the interests of balance, Phillippe, I had nothing but a bit of a sore arm with mine.
	🚂 ♥ 2:51pm Diana in Hungary: Yes, this has been great. Thank you for playing Cz.K. Sebő and for the whole show. A series of Thursday live shows (starting with Cz.K. Sebő's record release show on the 16th) takes me through the rest of 2021; see you in 2022! Happy holidays to all.
	♥ 2:52pm Yvang: Italians! You did it again!
	♥ 2:52pm Handy Haversack: Next time, Marie! Grazie mille, David! This was great. Very very glad to have caught the show. Keep faring forward, Voyageurs!
	♥ 2:53pm chresti: Yes Stanley, sore arm was the dominant feature for me too.
	🚂 ♥ 2:53pm Michael 98145: Dankon, David D
	♥ 2:53pm Handy Haversack: (Also: Going to meet Sylvia and S&M&S for a drink at 4. This time I'm sure it will work!)
	♥ 2:54pm chresti: Thanks David!

	12:00pm headcleaner: Plagwitz?
	🚂 ♥ 12:00pm Diana in Hungary: Greetings, David and all the riders!
	♥ 12:01pm Handy Haversack: Leaping from the platform so I can be with you, David and all the Voyageurs!
	♥ 12:01pm chresti: Morning David and continentals! Paraguay.
	♥ 12:02pm David Dichelle: Greetings Headcleaner, Diana, Handy, Chresti!
	♥ 12:02pm Jan Turkenburg: Hi everyone!
	♥ 12:02pm David Dichelle: Yes, it is Plagwitz, well spotted!
	♥ 12:02pm David Dichelle: Hello Jan!
	12:03pm Marie: Onboard! Guessing Lithuania. Greetings David and fellow travelers!
	♥ 12:03pm David Dichelle: Greetings, Marie!
	🚂 ♥ 12:04pm Diana in Hungary: I'm guessing Cuba today.
	♥ 12:05pm Alex In Illinois: Has Turkmenistan already been done?
	12:05pm YETI BOB: Hi Continentals. What are the odds we're going to the Faroe Islands today?
	♥ 12:06pm Handy Haversack: My Random Road Random Guess: U.S. Virgin Islands! (Unless that's too small, David? But there are 100K people, and their music has its own WikiP page, so I'm figuring it's in the mix!)
	12:06pm YETI BOB: Same as the odds for any other place we haven't been yet! That's the beauty of randomness
	12:06pm βrian: I'm still holding out for the Rustavi Choir.
	♥ 12:06pm Handy Haversack: It has, Alex.
	♥ 12:07pm Yvang: Hello David, travelers and travelorettes!
	🚂 ♥ 12:07pm Diana in Hungary: Alex in Illinois: you can see which countries have been done by scrolling down here: wfmu.org...
	♥ 12:08pm David Dichelle: Welcome Alex, Yeti Bob, βrian, Yvang!
	♥ 12:08pm Sem: Hello, David, and all aboard. On the random road, it's San Marino or bust.
	12:08pm YETI BOB: HI David. There's an extra '.' at the end of that URL
	♥ 12:08pm Stanley: Toot Toot!
	♥ 12:09pm David Dichelle: Yes, I think the Virgin Islands (both separately or together?) should find their way to the Random Road at some point.
	🚂 ♥ 12:09pm Diana in Hungary: Yes, I ended the sentence with a period and messed up the link. Here's the good link: wfmu.org...
	♥ 12:09pm David Dichelle: Salutations, Stanley, Sem!
	12:10pm YETI BOB: 249 countries and territories on the ISO list, we've done 57, so approx 192 to go (minus ones that will be disqualified)
	♥ 12:10pm David Dichelle: I'd say approximately 160 to go.
	♥ 12:10pm doctorjazz: Hi Riders!
	12:11pm βrian: I bet auto-correct thinks Sem is a 17-wheeler.
	♥ 12:11pm David Dichelle: Hey, Dr. J.!
	♥ 12:11pm Sem: rimshot
	♥ 12:11pm Handy Haversack: My sheet has 188.
	♥ 12:12pm David Dichelle: Yes, but disqualifications loom everywhere.
	♥ 12:12pm Alex In Illinois: Guinea-Bissau
	♥ 12:13pm Sem: Semi I seem.
	♥ 12:14pm Handy Haversack: The back-to-work / Thanksgiving / kitten-emergency cycle of crazy has resulted in my having two spreadsheets tracking the Road. The one at home has a better list of what's been noted as too small.
	🚂 ♥ 12:15pm Diana in Hungary: Oh, I am happy. Beautiful song, beautiful album.
	12:15pm YETI BOB: HH: I remember Bouvet Island is on the list. It's the most remote island in the world. I learn so much here.
	♥ 12:16pm Handy Haversack: And apparently Antarctica doesn't make the cut. Alas.
	♥ 12:17pm David Dichelle: Yes, the Random Road is a tough gig.
	12:21pm YETI BOB: HH: Right, but I dug up that photo of a Scotsman in full highland regalia playing bagpipe to the penguins. You had to fill in the sound with your imagination.
	12:22pm βrian: Nor Île de la Possession. There's some wild territory down there.
	12:23pm Carmichael: Heya David and freedom riders. I see someone snapped a pic of my home. At least they cleaned up a bit before doing so ...
	12:24pm βrian: Yep, literally a wringer, in Québec.
	♥ 12:24pm Handy Haversack: I'm meeting listener yerfriendpaul for lunch in 20 mins. We figured out just before the pandemic that our offices are only a few blocks apart! So I'll likely miss the Roud and maybe even the Random Road Reveal. But I have a good feeling about the U.S. Virgin Islands! Back with you all when I can.
	12:25pm YETI BOB: enjoy yr lunches YFP & HH!
	🚂 ♥ 12:26pm Michael 98145: Hello, Friends
	12:27pm Carmichael: Nepal!
	🚂 ♥ 12:27pm Diana in Hungary: Thank you for playing Cz.K. Sebő today! I don't know for sure what "Felzizeg" means--I will find out and let you know--but "zizeg" means "buzz" or "rustle," and the prefix "fel-" often means "out loud" when it precedes a verb having to do with a sound, so I think "felzizeg" means "it rustles out loud," or "it buzzes forth," or something along those lines.
	12:29pm Marie: I'm sorry if I missed this but what does the word "Lillibulero" mean?
	♥ 12:30pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Diana!
	♥ 12:31pm David Dichelle: Hello Carmichael and Michael!
	♥ 12:31pm Handy Haversack: Marie, WikiP says: "The song's title and the words of the refrain have been interpreted as a garbled version of the Irish words Lile ba léir é, ba linn an lá, "Lilly was clear and ours was the day". "
	♥ 12:31pm Handy Haversack: "The lily may be a reference to the fleur de lis of France, or to the most celebrated astrologer of the mid seventeenth century, William Lilly, who became well known for prophesy at this time and to whom could readily be attributed foreknowledge that a Catholic would be king of England.[7] Alternatively, the lyrics could mean, "Lilly is clear [about this], the day will be ours". It is also thought that "Lilli" is a familiar form of William, and that bullero comes from the Irish "Buaill Léir ó", which gives: "William defeated all that remained". Professor Breandán Ó Buachalla has claimed that they are a garbled version of the Irish sentence "Leir o, Leir o, leir o, leiro, Lilli bu leir o: bu linn an la, " which he translates as "Manifest, manifest, manifest, manifest, Lilly will be manifest, the day will be ours" referring to a possible prophecy of an Irish victory by the astrologer William Lilly.[8] "
	🚂 ♥ 12:34pm Diana in Hungary: Ooh, I like this version by The Yetties!
	🚂 ♥ 12:35pm Michael 98145: Jaunty
	12:35pm Marie: Hey Handy, wow, so interesting and informative, that info. is, thank you! It seems to me that that Professor prolly got it right.
	♥ 12:38pm Phillippe: Hey everyone! I'm going with Brazil yet again. If David was using a dart and throwing it at a map, I'd like my chances better
	🚂 ♥ 12:39pm Michael 98145: Whoop 'im with that stick
	♥ 12:39pm WR: @12:24 @Handy Haversack: Please give our greetings and best wishes to @yerfriendpaul. And thank you for the Wikipedia info on the roud 160. And hello David and all.
	♥ 12:40pm David Dichelle: Hey Phillippe! That dart has a life of its own...
	12:40pm Marie: Lovely tunes
	♥ 12:40pm David Dichelle: Hello, WR!
	12:40pm βrian: @Phillipe: It all depends on the cartographic projection, of course.
	12:42pm βrian: (My Dart has a slant-six and it pretty much goes where it pleases.)
	🚂 ♥ 12:42pm Diana in Hungary: I think the Jackie Oates is my favorite in this Roud! But it's a tough call.
	♥ 12:43pm David Dichelle: Yes, so many good versions of this one again.
	♥ 12:45pm Brian in UK: Hello David & travellers. Just heard that Robbie Shakespeare has passed. Younger than me.
	12:46pm Marie: A testament to strong woman, this is
	12:48pm YETI BOB: The Yetties! OK!!
	♥ 12:50pm coelacanth∅: greetings David and all
	♥ 12:50pm Bas NL: Hi David! Fellow passengers!
	♥ 12:52pm Bas NL: Oww.. Just missed De Vrede van Utrecht. A marked event in my hometown history.
	♥ 12:53pm David Dichelle: Hey Coel and Bas!
	♥ 12:53pm David Dichelle: Bas: Yes, it was a very short instrumental version of Lillibulero - blink your ears and you could miss it.
	♥ 12:58pm David Dichelle: Marie: That is a very good take on the song, in fact.
	♥ 1:02pm Bas NL: At the time of the signing of the many treaties they had a year and a half of cultural festivities. (De Vrede van Utrecht == The Peace(treaty) of Utrecht)
	1:03pm Marie: Why, thank you, David @). Loving this one!
	🚂 ♥ 1:04pm Diana in Hungary: This Amor Hafsouni is great.
	♥ 1:04pm Stanley: That Lyonaise Rai very good
	♥ 1:05pm David Dichelle: Yes, a great compilation.
	♥ 1:12pm David Dichelle: Bas: Yes, I believe the album features music connected to those events or at least the era.
	1:19pm Hubig Pie: Maghreb ? Morocco it is then and I say that's fine
	🚂 ♥ 1:20pm Diana in Hungary: There's a village in Hungary called Vámosgyörk, through which I have passed a number of times, but it has nothing to do with Vamos or Vámonos.
	1:21pm Marie: Neato. Apropos of not much, has anyone seen the German film, "Barbara"? I loved it
	♥ 1:22pm Bas NL: Before i rush home... my guess this week is Ghana!
	1:22pm Hubig Pie: Bonn, birthplace of Ludwig Von. On or about next week's show
	♥ 1:23pm David Dichelle: Hubig, that's right, he's hitting the old 251 next week.
	🚂 ♥ 1:24pm Diana in Hungary: Ooh! Die Irrlichter is one of my favorites today.
	🚂 ♥ 1:28pm Diana in Hungary: And this Madeleine Chartrand.
	♥ 1:29pm David Dichelle: Glad you like them!
	♥ 1:29pm coelacanth∅: this music's incredibly good!
	♥ 1:32pm David Dichelle: :-)
	♥ 1:34pm Woo: Huw sings Dŵr. Nice.
	♥ 1:35pm David Dichelle: Hey, Woo!
	1:36pm Will in Norman: I always end up tuning in after your roud segment, so pardon if you said this already today. But are you doing the roud index in order?
	♥ 1:37pm Handy Haversack: Well, we screwed that up. Apparently Paul was waiting outside the restaurant while I waited inside. Life. Don't talk to me about life.
	♥ 1:38pm David Dichelle: Hello Will, yes we are ascending the Roud ladder from week to week - although a few have to be skipped for lack of recordings.
	♥ 1:41pm David Dichelle: Handy, as long as you have your towel.
	1:41pm Will in Norman: OK good, that's what it looked like from the playlists. particularly looking forward to when you get to #299, the lincolshire poacher, mainly assuming that the shortwave numbers station version will be included in that 1
	♥ 1:42pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Will, a very good call - love those numbers stations!
	♥ 1:45pm Brian in UK: Is this The Beatles' Because?
	1:45pm Marie: Wow, what a great cover!
	♥ 1:45pm Brian in UK: Ofcourse it is.
	♥ 1:45pm David Dichelle: It is indeed!
	♥ 1:46pm Handy Haversack: ¿Porque no?
	🚂 ♥ 1:46pm Michael 98145: great
	1:48pm still b/p: Certainly wanted to hear from an outfit called Onom Agemo and the Disco Jumpers...but only got about two seconds of it just after tapping in. Omega Mono I get, but Srepmuj Ocsid is beyond my pay grade in important mystical terms and word-turns.
	♥ 1:48pm Phillippe: @handy the one damn time you need a cell phone...
	♥ 1:48pm Brian in UK: Gone are the days when Sixties pop stars recorded their hits in numerous European languages.
	♥ 1:49pm Handy Haversack: Social muscles still atrophied, I guess, Phillippe. We're going to try again next Thu.!
	♥ 1:50pm Phillippe: They still sell pagers...
	🚂 ♥ 1:51pm Michael 98145: ... i had one for years.
	♥ 1:51pm David Dichelle: Still b/p: There is surely a pearl of wisdom in there somewhere.
	1:53pm Marie: @Handy--I had a problem like that that kept recurring with one particular friend. It was strange, like, I didn't have that problem with other friends.
	1:54pm Hubig Pie: I watched a bit of the Beatles doc. That McCartney was a real task master
	♥ 1:55pm Handy Haversack: Well, it was pleasant to sit and listen to the sounds of a quintessentially (UWS) Manhattan restaurant for a little while. We're going to make it happen, though!
	1:55pm still b/p: The truth will set you eerf.
	♥ 1:56pm Phillippe: @Marie @handy I had that happen with one friend so many times I figured out they were more "friend" than friend, if you catch my drift
	1:56pm Marie: Yeah, the UWS still has a lot of old-school diners, and other stores, which I appreciate
	1:57pm Will in Norman: the long & winding random road, if you will
	♥ 1:57pm Handy Haversack: Itly! What's she doing in Itly?! Nice!
	1:58pm Marie: @Phillippe--I am not friends with that person anymore, sadly--realized it wasn't a real friendship
	♥ 1:58pm Handy Haversack: It's semantically impossible to not be friends with yerfriendpaul.
	1:59pm YETI BOB: But he's yer friend, not my friend!
	1:59pm YETI BOB: (j/k, he's a great guy and I'd like to be friends with him)
	🚂 ♥ 1:59pm Diana in Hungary: Well, Cuba is sort of like Italy in a couple of ways. Espresso is an essential beverage for both, and peninsulas are somewhat like islands at times.
	♥ 1:59pm Handy Haversack: He's yer friend now, YB!
	🚂 ♥ 2:00pm Michael 98145: Ciao, Bella
	♥ 2:01pm David Dichelle: Diana: They are also both major orange producers.
	♥ 2:03pm Phillippe: I was close. Both Brazil and Italy have flags, and the people in both countries eat food. Close enough for me
	♥ 2:03pm David Dichelle: Phillippe: Bonus points!
	♥ 2:04pm David Dichelle: Sem was closest of course, no country could be closer to another.
	♥ 2:04pm Phillippe: I'm both easily satisfied and a sore loser both at the same time. Some say that's a skill.
	♥ 2:04pm Handy Haversack: K8 and I used to have a free place to stay in Rome. Italy is definitely the friendliest country for your budget-conscious traveling vegetarian.
	♥ 2:05pm David Dichelle: Yes, I hear they have falafel and kebab.
	🚂 ♥ 2:05pm Michael 98145: I would love to return to Roma
	♥ 2:05pm Franco Twinkie: Is Falafel Express a chain?
	♥ 2:06pm David Dichelle: Franco: Don't know but it should be.
	♥ 2:06pm chresti: And pasta!
	♥ 2:07pm Phillippe: I grew up Catholic so you'd think I could stay at the Vatican for free, but apparently it doesn't work like that. Membership does not come with privileges
	2:07pm still b/p: I noted last week that 'I' was not represented in the "done so far" list. So here we go. But did I bet big lire today with a good I-guess? No sole mio.
	♥ 2:07pm Franco Twinkie: I remember only seen ONE restaurant in all of Rome that wasn't Italian food.
	♥ 2:08pm David Dichelle: It would be interesting to present a Vatican passport at a border somewhere - just to see the looks.
	♥ 2:08pm Franco Twinkie: The Vatican has it's own post office.
	🚂 ♥ 2:08pm Michael 98145: I suspect Mussolini wasn't open to 'ethnic' food
	♥ 2:09pm Phillippe: A Vatican City random road would be the easiest yet -- just throw a hymnal at it
	♥ 2:09pm Franco Twinkie: Italians tend to be kind of insular.
	♥ 2:10pm Handy Haversack: The very first time we ever traveled, back in 2000, after I'd won some money, we stayed for a few nights with the family of a woman K8 was waiting tables with. They lived in a villa outside of Florence. Its oldest parts were from the eleventh century. Her parents were sculptors, so there was art everywhere, and the family was reclaiming an olive orchard, so fresh oil was everywhere. Anyway, we went out with her sister and her BF to a "casa dei popolo." As it was explained to us, the communist partisans were much stronger around Tuscany, and when Mussolini fell, they stepped in and helped run things. So these were collective restaurants that would open on the weekends just so the farmers and people in these tiny towns could have a place to be together on the weekends for food, drink, dancing. So great. Massive plates of food for the equivalent of $2. And it was a Friday night, so fish for everyone. When I tried to get by just eating bread, Paolo took me with him back into the kitchen and explained everything, and minutes later I had a FEAST of porcini pasta. Fantastic experience. And a great collective endeavor that feels increasingly unreal in a more and more atomized-by-capitalism world.
	2:10pm βrian: Just started watching a gangsta series that involves the Vatican. Interesting background music.
	🚂 ♥ 2:10pm Diana in Hungary: Italy is a favorite travel destination for Hungarians, for obvious reasons (seacoast, real pizza, proximity, Dante).
	♥ 2:10pm chresti: The first time I stayed Europe in the 80s, eating vegetarian meant beaucoup de fromage
	2:11pm Hubig Pie: I hearin' The Pogues
	♥ 2:11pm Phillippe: semi-random fact I learned today that may be appropriate for our international bunch: the people who speak English as a second language outnumber those who speak it as their first language by 4 to 1
	2:12pm Carmichael: Yep, me too Hubig. Sally MacLennane.
	♥ 2:12pm Franco Twinkie: Next to Italy, Hungary has my favorite food.
	♥ 2:13pm Bas NL: Hi again! Italia!
	♥ 2:13pm David Dichelle: Lots of influences in the Italian folk scenes.
	🚂 ♥ 2:13pm Michael 98145: Great story @Handy
	♥ 2:13pm David Dichelle: Welcome back, Bas!
	2:13pm still b/p: Catacomb space could be monetized by Rome-region Catholics. NearlyAirlessBNB.
	♥ 2:13pm Stanley: Great story Handy. Italian cuisine is no problem for vegetarians. Unlike Spain where they think pork is a seasoning. As in 'salt and pepper sir? Pork?'
	♥ 2:14pm Phillippe: Ha, Stanley, I love that!
	2:15pm βrian: For a while hear in the US, it was a trend for celebrity chefs to add bacon to every dish. Bacon!
	♥ 2:15pm chresti: Phillippe, not surprised.
	♥ 2:15pm Phillippe: @still b/p surprised that hasn't occurred yet, tbh
	🚂 ♥ 2:15pm Michael 98145: Not much Sin Jamón in Spain
	♥ 2:17pm Stanley: Jamón - exactly Michael
	♥ 2:17pm Phillippe: I still don't get the inclusion of pork belly as a dish. "You want some meat with your fat?"
	🚂 ♥ 2:18pm Diana in Hungary: Franco Twinkie: I love the food here too. My city (Szolnok) has an annual goulash festival, and it's serious goulash, of many varieties, from around the country.
	🚂 ♥ 2:18pm Michael 98145: @Phillippe, bacon w/ pretenses
	♥ 2:18pm Stanley: Phillippe - Pork is nothing without its lovely, lovely fat.
	♥ 2:19pm Stanley: (not quite true, as I loves me Jamón)
	♥ 2:20pm Handy Haversack: Diana, we once flew to Rome via Budapest on Malev! Nice sandwiches on that airline. Very friendly. K8 finally did notice we were going the long way round, but it was much the cheapest option.
	🚂 ♥ 2:20pm Michael 98145: ( have to agree )
	♥ 2:20pm Franco Twinkie: Handy, I stayed at an old olive farm outside of Sienna. It was fun to cook in the farm house kitchen. One day I was going to grill rabbit outside, but it started raining like crazy so I cooked them on a spit in the living room fireplace. It's good to eat like a savage when everyone is drunk on local Italian wine.
	2:20pm βrian: Hear, hear: "here"
	♥ 2:20pm Bas NL: My experience with Barcelona/Spain is there must be severe punishment for serving less then perfect food.
	♥ 2:21pm Phillippe: @michael @stanley I first tried pork belly at a Korean restaurant, and is just struck me as a slab of fat that didn't have enough meat in it to call it bacon. And it was the main dish. Ugh. Bulgogi, please...
	♥ 2:23pm Stanley: Phillippe - the Italians love their lardo.
	2:23pm βrian: Which reminds me of the Korean restaurant nearby which offers a certain dish with a "slap of bacon." That costs extra, naturally.
	♥ 2:24pm Handy Haversack: My man in Edinburgh, whose mother and grandparents are Spanish, describes Madrid food as a sausage perfectly made in Barcelona that is then inserted between horse and saddle blanket and ridden very slowly to Madrid and served to you cold.
	♥ 2:26pm Bas NL: That's a vivid description Handy! :)
	♥ 2:26pm Franco Twinkie: A new food court just opened last week right down the street. Gobs of grilled meat is offered at the Korean place.
	2:26pm still b/p: I'd love a Spanish song telling the sausage road-trip and disappointment story with Flamenco vocal intensity.
	♥ 2:27pm David Dichelle: This one (Ganes) is in the Ladin language of Northern Italy.
	♥ 2:27pm Stanley: I don't know whether it still goes on but in Spain it was the law to provide cheap wholesome lunchtime meals in restaurants Mondays to Fridays for the workers (and bone idle backpackers)
	♥ 2:28pm chresti: Good thing I didn't have sausage when I was in Madrid.
	🚂 ♥ 2:28pm Diana in Hungary: What a voice and mood (Ganes).
	♥ 2:29pm Handy Haversack: Visceral memories of being on the Sunday-night BCN-EDI flight with a high fever and the plane packed full of lads coming back from their weekends. Pro tip: Don't let your companion say "Please be quieter. My boyfriend has a fever." It will not help matters. Agreed, Diana.
	♥ 2:30pm Stanley: Handy - my comiserations.
	🚂 ♥ 2:30pm Michael 98145: This is loverly
	2:30pm Carmichael: Clannad.
	♥ 2:31pm Franco Twinkie: Handy, the only place I've ever gotten food sick travelling thru is The United States.
	♥ 2:32pm David Dichelle: Sammastianu is Sicilian.
	2:33pm still b/p: chresti -- the one you ordered when you were there is just arriving at table now.
	2:34pm Carmichael: Mrs. Carmichael got food poisoning in Dublin. Undercooked pork was my guess. She doesn't drink either, so she couldn't have a glass of "what ails ya".
	♥ 2:34pm chresti: In Madrid, our hotel room was across the street from an all-night Flamenco bar.
	♥ 2:34pm Phillippe: Biggest issue I have since we moved to Annapolis is the dearth of decent ethnic foods. There are a couple good Indian places, a good Thai restaurant/donut shop, some random sushi, and good Mexican place in a gas station (the Mexxon). No Korean, no Ethiopian, no Brazilian. Going out to dinner tonight and the closest thing we could find to unique food is an oyster bar.
	♥ 2:37pm chresti: Haha still b/p!
	2:38pm Funky16Corners: Hey David!
	2:38pm Carmichael: @Phillippe, Rodizio Grill on Annapolis RD. Churasco house!
	♥ 2:38pm Bas NL: This reminds me of... what... Fisher-Z?
	♥ 2:38pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Larry!
	♥ 2:39pm Franco Twinkie: Phillippe, the first Thanksgiving I spent away from home was in Annapolis. I went to a party where the turkey was stuffed with clams from The Chesapeake Bay. It was beyond amazing. Then I took the train to NYC and gorged myself on ethnic food.
	2:39pm Funky16Corners: Testify! Coming up at 3pm- https://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/110491
	2:40pm Carmichael: This sounds a lot like the Tannahill Weavers.
	2:40pm Will in Norman: Is this the german dialect? Sehr interresant
	♥ 2:42pm David Dichelle: Yes, it is a dialect of German, but really a different language at that point, I'd say.
	2:45pm βrian: And, really, what could go wrong with turkey was stuffed with clams? I bet it is tasty, though.
	♥ 2:46pm Bas NL: Never knew there was so much happening in Italian music! My grandmother always had Italian music on, but that was not so diverse..
	♥ 2:46pm Phillippe: That sounds awesome, Franco. One of my family Thanksgiving traditions back in the day was for the men in the family to slouch in a back room in the basement and slurp oysters. I'm pretty much the only raw oyster lover in the family now, though, so that went by the wayside.
	🚂 ♥ 2:47pm Michael 98145: This has been great
	♥ 2:48pm Phillippe: Ok, my friends, I am off to my Covid booster. Wish me luck. If it kicks my butt like it did my bride, I'll see y'all on Saturday ;) Thanks David!
	♥ 2:48pm Handy Haversack: What Michael said! I might need to go back and listen again. Some distractions around this place. Work needs to get its priorities straight.
	2:48pm Hubig Pie: Be sure to remove shells before stuffin' the bird. 'Erster' dressing was the New Orleenz spec-ial-ity
	♥ 2:48pm Stanley: See you Phillippe. Bon courage.
	♥ 2:49pm Handy Haversack: Boost up, Phillippe!
	♥ 2:49pm Bas NL: Good luck, Phillippe!
	♥ 2:49pm chresti: Good luck Phillippe, it knocked me for a loop for a day or two.
	2:50pm Marie: Yes, great story, above, Handy! I have some good Italy stories too--not quite as bellissima as yours, but can't tell em right now. Too busy with work @(. @). Thanks, David for another fantastic show!
	2:50pm Hubig Pie: Phillippe, the boost kicked my boo-tay. I had no reaction to the first 2 doses
	♥ 2:51pm Stanley: In the interests of balance, Phillippe, I had nothing but a bit of a sore arm with mine.
	🚂 ♥ 2:51pm Diana in Hungary: Yes, this has been great. Thank you for playing Cz.K. Sebő and for the whole show. A series of Thursday live shows (starting with Cz.K. Sebő's record release show on the 16th) takes me through the rest of 2021; see you in 2022! Happy holidays to all.
	♥ 2:52pm Yvang: Italians! You did it again!
	♥ 2:52pm Handy Haversack: Next time, Marie! Grazie mille, David! This was great. Very very glad to have caught the show. Keep faring forward, Voyageurs!
	♥ 2:53pm chresti: Yes Stanley, sore arm was the dominant feature for me too.
	🚂 ♥ 2:53pm Michael 98145: Dankon, David D
	♥ 2:53pm Handy Haversack: (Also: Going to meet Sylvia and S&M&S for a drink at 4. This time I'm sure it will work!)
	♥ 2:54pm chresti: Thanks David!
	♥ 2:54pm Bas NL: Ok... archives to listen to. Thanks David! Great Italian job!
	♥ 2:56pm Stanley: Thanks David. Another enjoyable show. I love this time of the week. Continental Subway and tomorrow is Friday!
	♥ 2:56pm Sem: Been a fun ride, David. Thank you. And for next week's random road, I call dibs on yet another enclave; the music from Vatican City must be otherworldly. See you later, fellow travelers. Ciao.
	♥ 2:57pm Stanley: See ya Sem.
	♥ 2:57pm Yvang: Grazie mille David!
	♥ 2:57pm Sem: Stanley: does your mail go to Newhaven Rd. or Giles St.? Asking for a friend.
	♥ 2:58pm WR: Back. Italia! How interesting, will listen later. Reading up to see how Handy's WFMU social life it going.
	♥ 2:59pm David Dichelle: Thanks everyone!
	♥ 2:59pm Stanley: Sem - today I made arrangements to clear out of the office. Running out of time...Will be in touch
	♥ 3:20pm Brian in UK: David, belated thanks.
