Listener comments!
	7:56pm ironybread: I'm going to translate the text in that image, because I can't stop myself.
	7:57pm Rich in Washington: running back and forth between here and my kitchen so my coffee doesn't burn!
	7:58pm Rich in Washington: There! Coffee done in the nick of time. Hi ironybread!
	8:01pm Aitch: Hey diggers
	8:01pm ultradamno: Rich! Diggocrates!

	8:02pm ironybread: HAPPY BIRTHDAY RICHARD RICH RICHIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	8:02pm Otis Fodder: Happy Birthday Cratedigger!
	8:02pm Rich in Washington: Hi Aitch! Hi ultra! Hi Feldy! Hi Pauly! Hi Fluffy! Hi Mr. Fab! Thanks for birthday wishes!
	8:02pm Kat in Chicago: I failed to convince myself that going out in the cold to a Thing with Other Humans was something I should do, so I'm hanging with the birthday boy and my knitting.
	8:02pm Rich in Washington: Thank ye, Otis! <3
	8:02pm Scott67: G'day Rich & Crater Crew! 👍😎👣🐾🎶📻🌞🌏
	8:03pm Pauly from Clifton: Sot lat, Rich! Many happy returns!
	8:03pm Rich in Washington: Kat! Howdy! Glad you're here!
	8:03pm Rich in Washington: Scott67! Howdy!
	8:03pm Cp304: It's cold tonight Kat..
	8:04pm Rich in Washington: Hi Cp304!
	8:04pm Mr Fab: Are you knitting something for us, Kat? I'm not speaking for Rich, but I could use a new codpiece.
	8:05pm Zipperhead7: Rich! Another year! And healthy lungs too, I presume!
	8:05pm Kat in Chicago: LOL Fab, I'll have to see if Ravelry.com has any codpiece patterns.
	8:05pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Zipperhead7!
	8:08pm Rich in Washington: I almost did the DJ-talking-between-every-song thing I hate but fuck it, it's my birthday for a few more hours.
	8:08pm ironybread: Fuck him, he's dead! AND. Bless him for his ridiculousness.
	8:08pm Feldy: I didn’t know he was anti-vax. Did he die from Covid?? Only one source I saw said this
	8:08pm ironybread: #FightClub #BitchTits
	8:08pm Kat in Chicago: Yes he did, Feldy
	8:08pm Rich in Washington: Funny that he died mere months after his svengali/songwriter Jim Steinman.
	8:09pm Rich in Washington: I was not fully aware of that when the news hit but also remember him being called out for some kind of fealty to trump or the GOP.
	8:09pm Kat in Chicago: Bat Out Of Hell was the soundtrack to one of the more unfortunate evenings of my late teens
	8:10pm Feldy: Whoa
	8:10pm ironybread: Kat, did you GO ALL THE WAY that night????????
	8:10pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, this album on 8-track sort of transports me back. I found it as schmaltzy as later solo Alice Cooper but sort of warm to it now.
	8:11pm Kat in Chicago: Um, no, irony, just made a drunken fool of myself
	8:11pm Rich in Washington: as I say with most anti-vax people: they died doing what they loved. You gotta hand 'em that.
	8:11pm Mr Fab: This song is really confusing. is this all one song? And why is there a baseball game going on?
	8:12pm Zipperhead7: I remember the NY Times, back when John Rockwell was their pop music guy, referring repeatedly to "Mr. Loaf" when they reviewed this. Maybe "Sweat Loaf" in his memory?
	8:12pm ultradamno: He definitely had a fealty to being on Trump's show. They evidently had a rift over his presidential run which has had the generosity to forgive him for in this moment www.nydailynews.com...
	8:12pm ironybread: Fab - this is a very compressed version of Ulysses.
	8:12pm Kat in Chicago: It might be a suite, Fab?
	8:12pm steve spies: hi guys
	8:13pm Rich in Washington: I spent an embarrassing to admit large chunk of my morning searching for Christopher Lee clumsily introducing Meat Loaf on SNL, to no avail.
	8:13pm Rich in Washington: It's almost over. You can do this, people!
	8:14pm steve spies: I remember when meat used to pass out on stage in the early days and they would bring out a tank of oxygen with a mask- it was like part of his act-lol
	8:15pm Mr Fab: Wow, how long is this? Is there a plot? I don't mind it Rich, it's interesting in it's confusing-ness. i only know this guy from "Rocky Horror." Wow, this is like a John Oswald cut-up of a hundreds of songs compressed into a few minutes.
	8:15pm Rich in Washington: I worked with a guy who played his 'anything for love' cassingle over and over and over and over.
	8:15pm Kat in Chicago: I took advantage of this moment to load and start the dishwasher
	8:15pm Pauly from Clifton: Rich, that SNL intro by Christopher lee was hilarious. "ladies and gentlemen, Loaf!"
	8:16pm ironybread: BABY! HAD! A! GOOD! TIME! #HotPatootie
	8:16pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, but I didn't have the patience to find it and NBC's got SNL stuff locked down but good.
	8:16pm Kat in Chicago: OK with the Rocky Horror track though
	8:17pm Rich in Washington: Kat, I was about to run my dishwasher but decided to make coffee instead. Both are on my pre-show flight list but I was running late.
	8:19pm Kat in Chicago: That's ok, the dishes will still be there when this is over
	8:20pm Zipperhead7: That's great about Loaf and the oxygen tank. I can see him tearing it off and grabbing the mike, like James Brown and the cape.
	8:21pm ironybread: Almost every celebrity we think we care about is a person we never met, nor could we ever hope to meet.
	8:21pm ironybread: Celebrities are difficult. Trust me.
	8:25pm Aitch: elder brother played Meat Loaf to death. added to the fun of seeing him in Fight Club
	8:26pm Rich in Washington: You're brother's the one who dunnit! NOT covid! Your secret's safe with us, Aitch! ;)
	8:27pm Rich in Washington: Stick a thermometer in him, this Meat Loaf's done!
	8:32pm ironybread: #WhoKnows #WhoCares #SameFireTime #SameFireStation
	8:33pm Mr Fab: you have your albums organized by YEAR?
	8:34pm Zipperhead7: The Ultimate Knitting Challenge: A merkin? "Each hair is hand-tied to the lace"
	8:34pm ironybread: Spoiler, Rich is 131 years old. That's a prime number.
	8:35pm Rich in Washington: SHHH! You're not supposed to tell!
	8:35pm Kat in Chicago: heehee a knit merkin would be hilarious
	8:35pm Rich in Washington: I sort of have my 70s rock sort of grouped by year. It's complicated.
	8:38pm Kat in Chicago: like a purple sparkly fun fur one
	8:38pm Rich in Washington: I can't just straighforwardly sort albums. I end up splintering them off into subgroups. It's maddening. My 70s rock sort of turns into a whole 'art rock' section but who really belongs there?
	8:40pm Kat in Chicago: my 12" dance collection throws all the sorting off, I've never come up with a satisfying solution for that vs albums
	8:41pm Franco Twinkie: Rich, Zappa said Jack Bruce played too many notes, he wouldn't stay on the root(!?!
	8:42pm Mr Fab: one of the most memorable album openings EVER. I know we're on the corner in a second.
	8:42pm Rich in Washington: Hi Franco! I read that too! And Bruce said less than flattering stuff about Frank's musical abilities and claims to have played very little on that record.
	8:43pm davefromtoronto: late to the party - hello rich and everyone!
	8:43pm Rich in Washington: Hi davefromtoronto!
	8:44pm Mr Fab: Yeah Kat, I have my 12 inchers "organized" by weird/novelty ones up front, and all the rest of them just have to duke it out in the rest of the crate.
	8:45pm Rich in Washington: my wife keeps trying to get me to just go up one wall with all my records, which would solve the problem of them being in disparate locations in this room. Plus, I could do a more conventional 'alpha by author' type filing system. Did I mention I married an ex-librarian?
	8:46pm coelacanth∅: good evening Rich & all
	8:46pm Rich in Washington: Hey, coelacanth∅! Hello!
	8:46pm Mr Fab: "On The Corner" Proto-postpunk
	8:47pm Rich in Washington: This album/song is probably the Stairway to Heaven of WFMU land but I am excited I finally got a more decent copy fairly recently. Plus it's my birthday.
	8:47pm Zipperhead7: Yes! On the Corner! So Clive Davis ordered Miles to be more "commercial?" Ahahahaha . . .
	8:48pm davefromtoronto: happy b-day rich - it's also the birthday of a best friend of mine. is it still your birthday?
	8:48pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, dft! Indeed it is, for another couple of hours anyway, timezones notwithstanding.
	8:50pm Rich in Washington: in some ways, birthday in January kind of sucks. Too close to Christmas and if you got any kind of outdoor toy (bike, skateboard, blowback operated submachine gun, etc.), it was too cold to really enjoy it until Spring.
	8:50pm coelacanth∅: Happy birthday Rich! i'll get to celebrate your birthday for a few hours after you must stop
	8:50pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, coelacanth∅!
	8:51pm ironybread: Well I KNOW YOUR ADDRESS Rich, so you have no defense against any birhtday gift I decide to send. (Socks, I think. XL?)
	8:51pm davefromtoronto: cool man - you're hosting your own party. and now i have something to drink to!
	8:53pm Rich in Washington: This is the big sundae being wheeled out at Farrells!
	8:54pm coelacanth∅: the year i got a bicycle for xmas there was a lot of snow outside. that used to happen. anyway, i rode back & forth between the kitchen and the living room many times over a few weeks before i got a citation from my mother. so i went outside and rode for hours on the snowy sidewalks and streets until the snow melted in spring.
	8:55pm ironybread: P.S. Commenters, if you know the Weatherman's address, send him socks.
	8:55pm Rich in Washington: I remember the year I got an air rifle and it was the longest cold stretch we'd had in decades. It was just brutal to go outside and do anything.
	8:55pm Rich in Washington: Make sure they're safe socks.
	8:56pm Rich in Washington: remember your having socks with anyone that person's had socks with.
	8:56pm Mr Fab: Kat, can you knit The Weatherman some socks? Maybe include the letter U and the number 2 in the pattern.
	8:56pm ironybread: Memory of going in our half-acre back yard in Boise in winter and sitting next to the irrigation ditch junction playing around in the ice and snow and wearing kneepads to keep my knees from freezing.
	8:57pm Rich in Washington: 180 on one foot and the letter G on the other.
	8:57pm Kat in Chicago: Socks take a long time to knit but I'd sort of like to knit the Weatherman some, even just to hear him complain about them.
	8:58pm Rich in Washington: You must've heard the old adage, knees freeze with ease in the boise breeze, ironybread. Oh wow. I had a gummy before my coffee and now look at me.
	8:59pm Kat in Chicago: I am wearing hand knit socks right now, in fact. When I used to take public transportation to work every day, I liked to knit socks on the train/bus
	9:00pm ironybread: Please Crease my Spleeze Gabreeze
	9:00pm Rich in Washington: I have some handknit socks that my mother-in-law bought in Finland and they're magical. I wear them anytime I go out in the extreme cold. Uff da!
	9:01pm Rich in Washington: That reminds me of the Weatherman's dream journal and the phrase 'East Bay grease all the way to San Jose!'.
	9:02pm Rich in Washington: Thanks for being here, everybody!
	9:02pm Mr Fab: "The Magic Socks of Finland" one of Hans Christian Anderson's lesser-known stories.
	9:03pm Zipperhead7: Didn't SNL do an "Exorcist" parody where they changed a line to "Your mother knits socks that smell?"
	9:04pm Rich in Washington: Yes. I am pretty sure it was the one hosted by Richard Pryor. It might've been season one.
	9:04pm Kat in Chicago: I remember that parody, but not that line! I wasn't a knitter then, though.
	9:05pm Rich in Washington: I think when The Exorcist ran on network television the line they dubbed wasn't much better than that.
	9:07pm Kat in Chicago: that was a quick search, Rich!
	9:08pm Rich in Washington: I had some special coffee. It enhances my neural activity but at the cost of me brain cellz
	9:08pm ultradamno: Judas Priest! Your mother still rots in hell!
	9:10pm Rich in Washington: sorry Roscoe
	9:10pm ultradamno: Though nothing tops “I have had it with these monkey-fighting snakes on this Moday to Friday plane.”
	9:11pm davefromtoronto: omg...
	9:11pm Kat in Chicago: I like how we got from knitting to demonic possession so quickly
	9:12pm ironybread: And if you think going one-on-one with the Prince of Darkness is sticky, eoo! Wait until you see the rest of the characters he has to contend with! No, wait, edit this for broadcast.
	9:12pm Rich in Washington: I am determined to see this spur of the moment bad programming decision through to the end! For radio science!
	9:13pm Mr Fab: I liked the network tv version of "Repo Man." My brother and I still quote "like flies on spit."
	9:13pm davefromtoronto: it's heavy.
	9:14pm Rich in Washington: Oh wow! Repo Man was on TV?
	9:14pm ultradamno: I liked the tape of Kitten interviewing Capt Sensible where he talked about the radio xtian urging people to protest their show...I mean, they're already Damned, what else can they do?
	9:15pm Mr Fab: Ah, just heard it: "You're mother still rots in hell."
	9:15pm Kat in Chicago: Christianity is stupid, give up
	9:15pm Zipperhead7: I'll bet Rob Halford and company appreciated all the shoutouts to Judas Priest
	9:15pm ultradamno: Oh, yeah. Alex Cox had a lot of fun with the dubbed lines, some people prefer them.
	9:16pm davefromtoronto: the spirit of mercedes mccambridge compels you!
	9:16pm ultradamno: The censored version is an option on the Criterion release, actually
	9:16pm ironybread: The TV edit of "Breakfast Club" has always been one of my favorites. "You think I don't understand pressure, Claire? Well damn you. Damn you!"
	9:17pm Mr Fab: if you need some laffs after all that eeeevil, check out ironybread's Monty Python special tomorrow.
	9:18pm Kat in Chicago: I'm looking forward to that Monty Python special! Postponing my grocery run till it's over.
	9:18pm davefromtoronto: i actually heard a version that said "your mother wears army boots in hell"
	9:18pm ultradamno: I'd like profane dubbed versions of Hallmark x-mas movies, they always give me dirty thoughts to start with.
	9:20pm ultradamno: @dave well, as long as she's keeping her feet dry.
	9:20pm ironybread: yes all you obsessive smartasses please don't miss my show tomorrow which will answer so many of your questions about Monty Python's Flying Circus and what bits of it seemed to disappear over the years!!!
	9:21pm davefromtoronto: you mean the funny bits lol?
	9:22pm ultradamno: Even in a seventies horror I don't see how the retort to the 'sucks' line isn't "well, some people never change"
	9:22pm ironybread: Cratedigger's Lung Is Your Home For Funny Spellings (TM), so STAY TUNED
	9:23pm Zipperhead7: If "On the Corner" is WFMU's "Stairway to Heaven," what would be its "Aqualung?"
	9:23pm ironybread: Zip - I think the answer must be "White Punks On Dope"
	9:23pm davefromtoronto: whoa ud - that was sharp!
	9:30pm Otis: Hey Hey, how's the birthday celebrations there Rich, soundin' swell.
	9:31pm Rich in Washington: Groovy, Otis! Thanks!
	9:31pm davefromtoronto: yeah rich - hope you're celebratin' the big day!
	9:32pm Rich in Washington: I see a hiccup on my upstream. Everything cool on your end, listeners?
	9:32pm Kat in Chicago: Oh you missed the sock knitting and demonic possession segment, Otis, but you're just in time for the psychick teevee wannabee segment. (Actually I have been liking these tracks much more than I expected to.)
	9:33pm Rich in Washington: the old Roku device in my living room is the canary in the coalmine in my setup. It will stall at the slightest hiccup and I see that my device registered a brief stall.
	9:34pm ultradamno: It was pretty hiccuppy on my end from 8-9, but I think that's a comcast issue on my end, chugging along nicely now
	9:34pm Kat in Chicago: there might have been a hiccup during the last mic break? I was having buffering problems through the early part of the show, but restarting my phone seemed to fix.
	9:35pm ultradamno: Huh...maybe it wasn't me then, that's exactly what was happening here.
	9:36pm ultradamno: It was on the mothership stream too though
	9:36pm Kat in Chicago: I have Comcast too so let's blame them
	9:36pm Rich in Washington: I just see the one blip. Not too worried. My rural connection isn't the greatest but it's fairly robust.
	9:36pm ironybread: btw Rich, your excursions into various artists comps are SENSATIONAL, please make them a regular feature.
	9:37pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, I have been finding tons of weird, obscurish comps lately.
	9:37pm ultradamno: @kat I usually look for any opportunity to
	9:38pm Uncle Michael: Hey hey hey, mister birthday boyo!
	9:38pm Rich in Washington: shut up and tell me if you've poisoned my baby shut up and tell me if you've poisoned my baby shut up and tell me if you've poisoned my baby shut up and tell me if you've poisoned my baby shut up and tell me if you've poisoned my baby shut up and tell me if you've poisoned my baby
	9:38pm Rich in Washington: Hey, Uncle Michael! Howdy!
	9:39pm Kat in Chicago: This is more the kind of thing I was expecting
	9:39pm Zipperhead7: "The dingo got my baby!"
	9:39pm Rich in Washington: Psy Field has only ever appeared on obscure comps.
	9:41pm ultradamno: Do you know this one? It's value for the buck halmcgee.bandcamp.com...
	9:42pm Rich in Washington: Nice! I have that but it's not the greatest quality! I'd be stupid to pass that up for a buck! Thanks, ultra!
	9:43pm Rich in Washington: I had no idea Hal McGee was on Bandcamp. The wonders never cease.
	9:43pm ultradamno: You bet! Also, this one was one of my favorites from last year travailrythmique.bandcamp.com...
	9:43pm ironybread: p.s. - YOUR MOTHER PETS DOGS IN HELL! Because they're adorable! Scritch their ears.
	9:43pm Rich in Washington: oh. NSFW alert.
	9:43pm Feldy: The tempo has changed. Sexy time
	9:44pm Rich in Washington: but seriously, what are you doing at work at this time anyway?
	9:44pm Kat in Chicago: The Misty Ginger Roadshow appears to have been reading RE/Search
	9:46pm Rich in Washington: Most Portland thing ever. I am eating in an Italian sandwich joint a few blocks from the station and two dudes are sitting at a table during lunch hour looking at a laptop. Evidently a web developer showing his client his website. In full view of everybody, it's a porn site, with pictures and videos. I wish I had of recorded their conversation. It was hilarious.
	9:46pm ultradamno: I saw Viscera once. He was like Bill Murray's lounge singer character but didn't know it. A close friend of mine worked with him at Magic Pan and seemed to think he would snap one day, so the overwrought singing and sudden shameless self-promoting was counter to what I was primed for. I think Jaffe was already well already well over him at that point, or maybe that was her natural sullenness.
	9:47pm Rich in Washington: I guess they didn't feel comfortable eating at the Union Jack's just a block away, a strip club with full menu.
	9:52pm Kat in Chicago: This Hal McGee guy worked at Magic Pan and went by "Viscera", ultra? He looks like a fun fella.
	9:52pm ironybread: HA, that's a beautiful piece of reportage Rich. #PornIsGoodFood
	9:55pm ultradamno: And he's in Florida now, so is Gulchur's Bob Richert...what up? Well, Viscera was when it was him and Jaffe (who, on her own is Master/Slave Relationship) on his own he was Dog As Master...
	9:55pm Rich in Washington: I miss going places and seeing outrageous things happening that weren't about fascism of plague denial.
	9:55pm Kat in Chicago: #FloridaMen
	9:55pm ultradamno: Crepes by day, cuff by night.
	9:57pm Kat in Chicago: Rich, I see you skipped (spared us?) "Women of the SS"
	9:57pm Rich in Washington: I was just thinking about the great Sean Dunne film Florida Man today.
	9:57pm ultradamno: "ov" was a very eighties thing for like a second Women of the SS...or Ultra (no relation)
	9:57pm Rich in Washington: It wouldn't load correctly so I skipped it. Want me to try it again?
	9:58pm Kat in Chicago: Nah
	9:58pm Rich in Washington: They're be Women of the SS on the following comp.
	9:58pm Kat in Chicago: Yeah I roll my eyes when I see "ov"
	9:59pm ultradamno: Oh, Ultra isn't on this comp but "Sportfucking With Traci Lords" would fit right in.
	9:59pm ultradamno: I think that they have an album called "Youthful Pleasures" threw me.
	10:00pm Uncle Michael: "absolute" is my new favorite adjective
	10:00pm ironybread: I have a friend in Seattle who's been #Sportfucking and he's had to stop for COVID reasons. But he'll be back at it. You can count on it. #GayTwitter
	10:01pm ultradamno: Yeah, I think it was a popular spelling among de Sade and Lautremont readers
	10:01pm Kat in Chicago: Well, Ilsa She-Wolf of the SS is one of the few movies I truly wish I could unsee, so my hopes for Women of the SS are not high
	10:03pm ultradamno: There are so many Ilsa movies too... It was like immediate redemption for Emmanuelle
	10:03pm Rich in Washington: I actually have one of Women of the SS's cassettes but I think it's kind of stupid.
	10:03pm Rich in Washington: Wasn't the original Ilsa movie filmed on Hogan's Heroes sets or did I dream that?
	10:04pm ?: "favorite" is my new absolute adjective "new" is my absolute favorite adjective "new" is my favorite absolute adjecitve "absolute" is my favorite new adjective
	10:04pm ultradamno: That's what wiki says...I imagine Germany was not OK with it then
	10:05pm Kat in Chicago: So much of this stuff is "ooh look at us we're transgressive", that's why I thought I wouldn't like the last set as much as I did.
	10:05pm Uncle Michael: How absolute? So absolute!
	10:06pm ?: (Johnny Carson voice)
	10:06pm Rich in Washington: I found a great scholarly article about fascist aesthetics in industrial music written in the late 90s and it's pretty interesting, eye opening.
	10:06pm ultradamno: I've been told by someone who knows them that Sleep Chamber are legit bdsm, but that's exactly how their stuff was taken by me at the time. They were made fun of quite a lot.
	10:07pm Zipperhead7: Rich -- what's the citation on that article?
	10:07pm Rich in Washington: one of my DJ pals who used to be a big Sleep Chamber fan when she lived in Boston and I love to make fun of their cover of Warm Leatherette. Wahm, leatuh-ette!
	10:07pm Kat in Chicago: I'd probably like this one without the moans
	10:08pm Rich in Washington: don't recall, ZH7. I think I have it as a PDF in my monstrous pile of PDF docs.
	10:08pm ultradamno: I do like a lot of Skullflower/Total but they are definitely in with that.
	10:16pm Zipperhead7: I got an email from someone whose kid started college recently. Stereos are not allowed in the dorms! Amazing . . .
	10:17pm Rich in Washington: Interesting. I guess they want people listening to Spotify on earbuds. Listening to music in a room is SO last century!
	10:18pm Kat in Chicago: Zipperhead, why? I can't imagine what my college experience would have been like without record players in the dorms. I still have vivid memories of dancing to Patti Smith and Talking Heads in friends' rooms.
	10:18pm ironybread: If there's one guy with a boombox and a CD of Bob Marley's "Legend", then college can continue. Those at least were the prerequisites when I was in college
	10:19pm Rich in Washington: shared cultural experiences are SO last century.
	10:19pm ultradamno: So whole dorms are like silent parties, everyone getting ear damage with headphones to escape the reality of hearing whole floors of crying freshmen
	10:20pm Kat in Chicago: I would have thought druidic rituals would make for slightly more exciting listening
	10:21pm Rich in Washington: They're conditioning kids for silently dying in ennui listening to the 21st century equivalent of Barry Manilow on their expensive ear apple ear things in their open office cubby.
	10:22pm ultradamno: The Dickies have a single called "A Gary Glitter Getaway"....and it's relatively recent?
	10:22pm Kat in Chicago: :( :( :(
	10:23pm ironybread: Wow, flashing back to Negativland 001 now
	10:24pm Rich in Washington: Oh yeah. The Dickies. Weren't they in some kind of dustup recently over whining about 'cancel culture'?
	10:24pm Zipperhead7: I suppose administators see it as noise pollution that impedes productivity, a distraction from the pursuit of the Perfect GPA. As she wrote, "The listening experience is now private and almost solitary, yet being pushed at us publicly from every marketing angle to sell, sell, sell." I knew we were in trouble when music began to be referred to as "content."
	10:25pm ultradamno: How could someone be mad about that when he's got dick puppet to play with?
	10:26pm ultradamno: The thing is, the worst part of the concept isn't the bad taste, it's how two decades ago it is.
	10:27pm Rich in Washington: maybe anti-circumcision activists are mad at them?
	10:28pm Rich in Washington: BTW: the missus and I really enjoyed the series How To Do It With John Wilson but the anti-circumcision segment was both hilarious and shocking.
	10:32pm ultradamno: I like the tunnel acoustics of this, I won't lie
	10:33pm Will the Sound Guy: Happy Birthday Rich
	10:33pm Feldy: ARB has played a lot of Nurse with Wound, I didn’t realize it was mid-eighties
	10:33pm Rich in Washington: There are some really enjoyable tracks on both these comps.
	10:34pm Rich in Washington: Thanks Will! Having a lovely B-Day tonight!
	10:34pm ironybread: I must say, circumcision can go away, as far as I'm concerned. Maybe I'm just cock-obsessed but I have to say, leave the gentlemen uncut, they'll love you for it later.
	10:35pm Rich in Washington: I wasn't consulted.
	10:36pm ultradamno: You wouldn't happen to have a copy of The Gizmos' "Gimme Back My Foreskin" would you". I'm pretty sure Gulchur hasn't cut it from the CDs.
	10:36pm Bri: Happy birthday Rich!
	10:36pm Rich in Washington: No! I've never heard of that!
	10:37pm Zipperhead7: I believe some guys filed lawsuits against their parents for this reason
	10:37pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Bri!
	10:38pm Rich in Washington: While miffed I wasn't consulted, it would be way down on the list of things I would sue my parents for.

View Rich in Washington's profile

A three-hour exploration of excavations from the farthest reaches of humanity's hellish collective brain, through records, tapes, CDs, mostly scoured from country bumpkin thrift stores, creepy charity shops, backwoods junk stores, and even the internet - all mixed live. We don't judge, we just play 'em. Hosted by Rich in Washington.

Listener comments!
	7:56pm ironybread: I'm going to translate the text in that image, because I can't stop myself.
	7:57pm Rich in Washington: running back and forth between here and my kitchen so my coffee doesn't burn!
	7:58pm Rich in Washington: There! Coffee done in the nick of time. Hi ironybread!
	8:01pm Aitch: Hey diggers

	8:01pm Feldy: Hey Rich!
	8:01pm Pauly from Clifton: Hi Rich, gang!
	8:01pm Fluffy McFlufffluff: Happy Woofday Rich!
	8:02pm Mr Fab: HAPPY MERRY FUN BIRTHDAY TO YOU, RICH!
	8:02pm Cp304: Happy Birthday again Rich!
	8:02pm Mr Fab: Guess what - just for today, I'll let you play whatever you want.
	8:02pm ironybread: HAPPY BIRTHDAY RICHARD RICH RICHIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	8:02pm Otis Fodder: Happy Birthday Cratedigger!
	8:02pm Rich in Washington: Hi Aitch! Hi ultra! Hi Feldy! Hi Pauly! Hi Fluffy! Hi Mr. Fab! Thanks for birthday wishes!
	8:02pm Kat in Chicago: I failed to convince myself that going out in the cold to a Thing with Other Humans was something I should do, so I'm hanging with the birthday boy and my knitting.
	8:02pm Rich in Washington: Thank ye, Otis! <3
	8:02pm Scott67: G'day Rich & Crater Crew! 👍😎👣🐾🎶📻🌞🌏
	8:03pm Pauly from Clifton: Sot lat, Rich! Many happy returns!
	8:03pm Rich in Washington: Kat! Howdy! Glad you're here!
	8:03pm Rich in Washington: Scott67! Howdy!
	8:03pm Cp304: It's cold tonight Kat..
	8:04pm Rich in Washington: Hi Cp304!
	8:04pm Mr Fab: Are you knitting something for us, Kat? I'm not speaking for Rich, but I could use a new codpiece.
	8:05pm Zipperhead7: Rich! Another year! And healthy lungs too, I presume!
	8:05pm Kat in Chicago: LOL Fab, I'll have to see if Ravelry.com has any codpiece patterns.
	8:05pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Zipperhead7!
	8:08pm Rich in Washington: I almost did the DJ-talking-between-every-song thing I hate but fuck it, it's my birthday for a few more hours.
	8:08pm ironybread: Fuck him, he's dead! AND. Bless him for his ridiculousness.
	8:08pm Feldy: I didn’t know he was anti-vax. Did he die from Covid?? Only one source I saw said this
	8:08pm ironybread: #FightClub #BitchTits
	8:08pm Kat in Chicago: Yes he did, Feldy
	8:08pm Rich in Washington: Funny that he died mere months after his svengali/songwriter Jim Steinman.
	8:09pm Rich in Washington: I was not fully aware of that when the news hit but also remember him being called out for some kind of fealty to trump or the GOP.
	8:09pm Kat in Chicago: Bat Out Of Hell was the soundtrack to one of the more unfortunate evenings of my late teens
	8:10pm Feldy: Whoa
	8:10pm ironybread: Kat, did you GO ALL THE WAY that night????????
	8:10pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, this album on 8-track sort of transports me back. I found it as schmaltzy as later solo Alice Cooper but sort of warm to it now.
	8:11pm Kat in Chicago: Um, no, irony, just made a drunken fool of myself
	8:11pm Rich in Washington: as I say with most anti-vax people: they died doing what they loved. You gotta hand 'em that.
	8:11pm Mr Fab: This song is really confusing. is this all one song? And why is there a baseball game going on?
	8:12pm Zipperhead7: I remember the NY Times, back when John Rockwell was their pop music guy, referring repeatedly to "Mr. Loaf" when they reviewed this. Maybe "Sweat Loaf" in his memory?
	8:12pm ultradamno: He definitely had a fealty to being on Trump's show. They evidently had a rift over his presidential run which has had the generosity to forgive him for in this moment www.nydailynews.com...
	8:12pm ironybread: Fab - this is a very compressed version of Ulysses.
	8:12pm Kat in Chicago: It might be a suite, Fab?
	8:12pm steve spies: hi guys
	8:13pm Rich in Washington: I spent an embarrassing to admit large chunk of my morning searching for Christopher Lee clumsily introducing Meat Loaf on SNL, to no avail.
	8:13pm Rich in Washington: It's almost over. You can do this, people!
	8:14pm steve spies: I remember when meat used to pass out on stage in the early days and they would bring out a tank of oxygen with a mask- it was like part of his act-lol
	8:15pm Mr Fab: Wow, how long is this? Is there a plot? I don't mind it Rich, it's interesting in it's confusing-ness. i only know this guy from "Rocky Horror." Wow, this is like a John Oswald cut-up of a hundreds of songs compressed into a few minutes.
	8:15pm Rich in Washington: I worked with a guy who played his 'anything for love' cassingle over and over and over and over.
	8:15pm Kat in Chicago: I took advantage of this moment to load and start the dishwasher
	8:15pm Pauly from Clifton: Rich, that SNL intro by Christopher lee was hilarious. "ladies and gentlemen, Loaf!"
	8:16pm ironybread: BABY! HAD! A! GOOD! TIME! #HotPatootie
	8:16pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, but I didn't have the patience to find it and NBC's got SNL stuff locked down but good.
	8:16pm Kat in Chicago: OK with the Rocky Horror track though
	8:17pm Rich in Washington: Kat, I was about to run my dishwasher but decided to make coffee instead. Both are on my pre-show flight list but I was running late.
	8:19pm Kat in Chicago: That's ok, the dishes will still be there when this is over
	8:20pm Zipperhead7: That's great about Loaf and the oxygen tank. I can see him tearing it off and grabbing the mike, like James Brown and the cape.
	8:21pm ironybread: Almost every celebrity we think we care about is a person we never met, nor could we ever hope to meet.
	8:21pm ironybread: Celebrities are difficult. Trust me.
	8:25pm Aitch: elder brother played Meat Loaf to death. added to the fun of seeing him in Fight Club
	8:26pm Rich in Washington: You're brother's the one who dunnit! NOT covid! Your secret's safe with us, Aitch! ;)
	8:27pm Rich in Washington: Stick a thermometer in him, this Meat Loaf's done!
	8:32pm ironybread: #WhoKnows #WhoCares #SameFireTime #SameFireStation
	8:33pm Mr Fab: you have your albums organized by YEAR?
	8:34pm Zipperhead7: The Ultimate Knitting Challenge: A merkin? "Each hair is hand-tied to the lace"
	8:34pm ironybread: Spoiler, Rich is 131 years old. That's a prime number.
	8:35pm Rich in Washington: SHHH! You're not supposed to tell!
	8:35pm Kat in Chicago: heehee a knit merkin would be hilarious
	8:35pm Rich in Washington: I sort of have my 70s rock sort of grouped by year. It's complicated.
	8:38pm Kat in Chicago: like a purple sparkly fun fur one
	8:38pm Rich in Washington: I can't just straighforwardly sort albums. I end up splintering them off into subgroups. It's maddening. My 70s rock sort of turns into a whole 'art rock' section but who really belongs there?
	8:40pm Kat in Chicago: my 12" dance collection throws all the sorting off, I've never come up with a satisfying solution for that vs albums
	8:41pm Franco Twinkie: Rich, Zappa said Jack Bruce played too many notes, he wouldn't stay on the root(!?!
	8:42pm Mr Fab: one of the most memorable album openings EVER. I know we're on the corner in a second.
	8:42pm Rich in Washington: Hi Franco! I read that too! And Bruce said less than flattering stuff about Frank's musical abilities and claims to have played very little on that record.
	8:43pm davefromtoronto: late to the party - hello rich and everyone!
	8:43pm Rich in Washington: Hi davefromtoronto!
	8:44pm Mr Fab: Yeah Kat, I have my 12 inchers "organized" by weird/novelty ones up front, and all the rest of them just have to duke it out in the rest of the crate.
	8:45pm Rich in Washington: my wife keeps trying to get me to just go up one wall with all my records, which would solve the problem of them being in disparate locations in this room. Plus, I could do a more conventional 'alpha by author' type filing system. Did I mention I married an ex-librarian?
	8:46pm coelacanth∅: good evening Rich & all
	8:46pm Rich in Washington: Hey, coelacanth∅! Hello!
	8:46pm Mr Fab: "On The Corner" Proto-postpunk
	8:47pm Rich in Washington: This album/song is probably the Stairway to Heaven of WFMU land but I am excited I finally got a more decent copy fairly recently. Plus it's my birthday.
	8:47pm Zipperhead7: Yes! On the Corner! So Clive Davis ordered Miles to be more "commercial?" Ahahahaha . . .
	8:48pm davefromtoronto: happy b-day rich - it's also the birthday of a best friend of mine. is it still your birthday?
	8:48pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, dft! Indeed it is, for another couple of hours anyway, timezones notwithstanding.
	8:50pm Rich in Washington: in some ways, birthday in January kind of sucks. Too close to Christmas and if you got any kind of outdoor toy (bike, skateboard, blowback operated submachine gun, etc.), it was too cold to really enjoy it until Spring.
	8:50pm coelacanth∅: Happy birthday Rich! i'll get to celebrate your birthday for a few hours after you must stop
	8:50pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, coelacanth∅!
	8:51pm ironybread: Well I KNOW YOUR ADDRESS Rich, so you have no defense against any birhtday gift I decide to send. (Socks, I think. XL?)
	8:51pm davefromtoronto: cool man - you're hosting your own party. and now i have something to drink to!
	8:53pm Rich in Washington: This is the big sundae being wheeled out at Farrells!
	8:54pm coelacanth∅: the year i got a bicycle for xmas there was a lot of snow outside. that used to happen. anyway, i rode back & forth between the kitchen and the living room many times over a few weeks before i got a citation from my mother. so i went outside and rode for hours on the snowy sidewalks and streets until the snow melted in spring.
	8:55pm ironybread: P.S. Commenters, if you know the Weatherman's address, send him socks.
	8:55pm Rich in Washington: I remember the year I got an air rifle and it was the longest cold stretch we'd had in decades. It was just brutal to go outside and do anything.
	8:55pm Rich in Washington: Make sure they're safe socks.
	8:56pm Rich in Washington: remember your having socks with anyone that person's had socks with.
	8:56pm Mr Fab: Kat, can you knit The Weatherman some socks? Maybe include the letter U and the number 2 in the pattern.
	8:56pm ironybread: Memory of going in our half-acre back yard in Boise in winter and sitting next to the irrigation ditch junction playing around in the ice and snow and wearing kneepads to keep my knees from freezing.
	8:57pm Rich in Washington: 180 on one foot and the letter G on the other.
	8:57pm Kat in Chicago: Socks take a long time to knit but I'd sort of like to knit the Weatherman some, even just to hear him complain about them.
	8:58pm Rich in Washington: You must've heard the old adage, knees freeze with ease in the boise breeze, ironybread. Oh wow. I had a gummy before my coffee and now look at me.
	8:59pm Kat in Chicago: I am wearing hand knit socks right now, in fact. When I used to take public transportation to work every day, I liked to knit socks on the train/bus
	9:00pm ironybread: Please Crease my Spleeze Gabreeze
	9:00pm Rich in Washington: I have some handknit socks that my mother-in-law bought in Finland and they're magical. I wear them anytime I go out in the extreme cold. Uff da!
	9:01pm Rich in Washington: That reminds me of the Weatherman's dream journal and the phrase 'East Bay grease all the way to San Jose!'.
	9:02pm Rich in Washington: Thanks for being here, everybody!
	9:02pm Mr Fab: "The Magic Socks of Finland" one of Hans Christian Anderson's lesser-known stories.
	9:03pm Zipperhead7: Didn't SNL do an "Exorcist" parody where they changed a line to "Your mother knits socks that smell?"
	9:04pm Rich in Washington: Yes. I am pretty sure it was the one hosted by Richard Pryor. It might've been season one.
	9:04pm Kat in Chicago: I remember that parody, but not that line! I wasn't a knitter then, though.
	9:05pm Rich in Washington: I think when The Exorcist ran on network television the line they dubbed wasn't much better than that.
	9:07pm Kat in Chicago: that was a quick search, Rich!
	9:08pm Rich in Washington: I had some special coffee. It enhances my neural activity but at the cost of me brain cellz
	9:08pm ultradamno: Judas Priest! Your mother still rots in hell!
	9:10pm Rich in Washington: sorry Roscoe
	9:10pm ultradamno: Though nothing tops “I have had it with these monkey-fighting snakes on this Moday to Friday plane.”
	9:11pm davefromtoronto: omg...
	9:11pm Kat in Chicago: I like how we got from knitting to demonic possession so quickly
	9:12pm ironybread: And if you think going one-on-one with the Prince of Darkness is sticky, eoo! Wait until you see the rest of the characters he has to contend with! No, wait, edit this for broadcast.
	9:12pm Rich in Washington: I am determined to see this spur of the moment bad programming decision through to the end! For radio science!
	9:13pm Mr Fab: I liked the network tv version of "Repo Man." My brother and I still quote "like flies on spit."
	9:13pm davefromtoronto: it's heavy.
	9:14pm Rich in Washington: Oh wow! Repo Man was on TV?
	9:14pm ultradamno: I liked the tape of Kitten interviewing Capt Sensible where he talked about the radio xtian urging people to protest their show...I mean, they're already Damned, what else can they do?
	9:15pm Mr Fab: Ah, just heard it: "You're mother still rots in hell."
	9:15pm Kat in Chicago: Christianity is stupid, give up
	9:15pm Zipperhead7: I'll bet Rob Halford and company appreciated all the shoutouts to Judas Priest
	9:15pm ultradamno: Oh, yeah. Alex Cox had a lot of fun with the dubbed lines, some people prefer them.
	9:16pm davefromtoronto: the spirit of mercedes mccambridge compels you!
	9:16pm ultradamno: The censored version is an option on the Criterion release, actually
	9:16pm ironybread: The TV edit of "Breakfast Club" has always been one of my favorites. "You think I don't understand pressure, Claire? Well damn you. Damn you!"
	9:17pm Mr Fab: if you need some laffs after all that eeeevil, check out ironybread's Monty Python special tomorrow.
	9:18pm Kat in Chicago: I'm looking forward to that Monty Python special! Postponing my grocery run till it's over.
	9:18pm davefromtoronto: i actually heard a version that said "your mother wears army boots in hell"
	9:18pm ultradamno: I'd like profane dubbed versions of Hallmark x-mas movies, they always give me dirty thoughts to start with.
	9:20pm ultradamno: @dave well, as long as she's keeping her feet dry.
	9:20pm ironybread: yes all you obsessive smartasses please don't miss my show tomorrow which will answer so many of your questions about Monty Python's Flying Circus and what bits of it seemed to disappear over the years!!!
	9:21pm davefromtoronto: you mean the funny bits lol?
	9:22pm ultradamno: Even in a seventies horror I don't see how the retort to the 'sucks' line isn't "well, some people never change"
	9:22pm ironybread: Cratedigger's Lung Is Your Home For Funny Spellings (TM), so STAY TUNED
	9:23pm Zipperhead7: If "On the Corner" is WFMU's "Stairway to Heaven," what would be its "Aqualung?"
	9:23pm ironybread: Zip - I think the answer must be "White Punks On Dope"
	9:23pm davefromtoronto: whoa ud - that was sharp!
	9:30pm Otis: Hey Hey, how's the birthday celebrations there Rich, soundin' swell.
	9:31pm Rich in Washington: Groovy, Otis! Thanks!
	9:31pm davefromtoronto: yeah rich - hope you're celebratin' the big day!
	9:32pm Rich in Washington: I see a hiccup on my upstream. Everything cool on your end, listeners?
	9:32pm Kat in Chicago: Oh you missed the sock knitting and demonic possession segment, Otis, but you're just in time for the psychick teevee wannabee segment. (Actually I have been liking these tracks much more than I expected to.)
	9:33pm Rich in Washington: the old Roku device in my living room is the canary in the coalmine in my setup. It will stall at the slightest hiccup and I see that my device registered a brief stall.
	9:34pm ultradamno: It was pretty hiccuppy on my end from 8-9, but I think that's a comcast issue on my end, chugging along nicely now
	9:34pm Kat in Chicago: there might have been a hiccup during the last mic break? I was having buffering problems through the early part of the show, but restarting my phone seemed to fix.
	9:35pm ultradamno: Huh...maybe it wasn't me then, that's exactly what was happening here.
	9:36pm ultradamno: It was on the mothership stream too though
	9:36pm Kat in Chicago: I have Comcast too so let's blame them
	9:36pm Rich in Washington: I just see the one blip. Not too worried. My rural connection isn't the greatest but it's fairly robust.
	9:36pm ironybread: btw Rich, your excursions into various artists comps are SENSATIONAL, please make them a regular feature.
	9:37pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, I have been finding tons of weird, obscurish comps lately.
	9:37pm ultradamno: @kat I usually look for any opportunity to
	9:38pm Uncle Michael: Hey hey hey, mister birthday boyo!
	9:38pm Rich in Washington: shut up and tell me if you've poisoned my baby shut up and tell me if you've poisoned my baby shut up and tell me if you've poisoned my baby shut up and tell me if you've poisoned my baby shut up and tell me if you've poisoned my baby shut up and tell me if you've poisoned my baby
	9:38pm Rich in Washington: Hey, Uncle Michael! Howdy!
	9:39pm Kat in Chicago: This is more the kind of thing I was expecting
	9:39pm Zipperhead7: "The dingo got my baby!"
	9:39pm Rich in Washington: Psy Field has only ever appeared on obscure comps.
	9:41pm ultradamno: Do you know this one? It's value for the buck halmcgee.bandcamp.com...
	9:42pm Rich in Washington: Nice! I have that but it's not the greatest quality! I'd be stupid to pass that up for a buck! Thanks, ultra!
	9:43pm Rich in Washington: I had no idea Hal McGee was on Bandcamp. The wonders never cease.
	9:43pm ultradamno: You bet! Also, this one was one of my favorites from last year travailrythmique.bandcamp.com...
	9:43pm ironybread: p.s. - YOUR MOTHER PETS DOGS IN HELL! Because they're adorable! Scritch their ears.
	9:43pm Rich in Washington: oh. NSFW alert.
	9:43pm Feldy: The tempo has changed. Sexy time
	9:44pm Rich in Washington: but seriously, what are you doing at work at this time anyway?
	9:44pm Kat in Chicago: The Misty Ginger Roadshow appears to have been reading RE/Search
	9:46pm Rich in Washington: Most Portland thing ever. I am eating in an Italian sandwich joint a few blocks from the station and two dudes are sitting at a table during lunch hour looking at a laptop. Evidently a web developer showing his client his website. In full view of everybody, it's a porn site, with pictures and videos. I wish I had of recorded their conversation. It was hilarious.
	9:46pm ultradamno: I saw Viscera once. He was like Bill Murray's lounge singer character but didn't know it. A close friend of mine worked with him at Magic Pan and seemed to think he would snap one day, so the overwrought singing and sudden shameless self-promoting was counter to what I was primed for. I think Jaffe was already well already well over him at that point, or maybe that was her natural sullenness.
	9:47pm Rich in Washington: I guess they didn't feel comfortable eating at the Union Jack's just a block away, a strip club with full menu.
	9:52pm Kat in Chicago: This Hal McGee guy worked at Magic Pan and went by "Viscera", ultra? He looks like a fun fella.
	9:52pm ironybread: HA, that's a beautiful piece of reportage Rich. #PornIsGoodFood
	9:55pm ultradamno: And he's in Florida now, so is Gulchur's Bob Richert...what up? Well, Viscera was when it was him and Jaffe (who, on her own is Master/Slave Relationship) on his own he was Dog As Master...
	9:55pm Rich in Washington: I miss going places and seeing outrageous things happening that weren't about fascism of plague denial.
	9:55pm Kat in Chicago: #FloridaMen
	9:55pm ultradamno: Crepes by day, cuff by night.
	9:57pm Kat in Chicago: Rich, I see you skipped (spared us?) "Women of the SS"
	9:57pm Rich in Washington: I was just thinking about the great Sean Dunne film Florida Man today.
	9:57pm ultradamno: "ov" was a very eighties thing for like a second Women of the SS...or Ultra (no relation)
	9:57pm Rich in Washington: It wouldn't load correctly so I skipped it. Want me to try it again?
	9:58pm Kat in Chicago: Nah
	9:58pm Rich in Washington: They're be Women of the SS on the following comp.
	9:58pm Kat in Chicago: Yeah I roll my eyes when I see "ov"
	9:59pm ultradamno: Oh, Ultra isn't on this comp but "Sportfucking With Traci Lords" would fit right in.
	9:59pm ultradamno: I think that they have an album called "Youthful Pleasures" threw me.
	10:00pm Uncle Michael: "absolute" is my new favorite adjective
	10:00pm ironybread: I have a friend in Seattle who's been #Sportfucking and he's had to stop for COVID reasons. But he'll be back at it. You can count on it. #GayTwitter
	10:01pm ultradamno: Yeah, I think it was a popular spelling among de Sade and Lautremont readers
	10:01pm Kat in Chicago: Well, Ilsa She-Wolf of the SS is one of the few movies I truly wish I could unsee, so my hopes for Women of the SS are not high
	10:03pm ultradamno: There are so many Ilsa movies too... It was like immediate redemption for Emmanuelle
	10:03pm Rich in Washington: I actually have one of Women of the SS's cassettes but I think it's kind of stupid.
	10:03pm Rich in Washington: Wasn't the original Ilsa movie filmed on Hogan's Heroes sets or did I dream that?
	10:04pm ?: "favorite" is my new absolute adjective "new" is my absolute favorite adjective "new" is my favorite absolute adjecitve "absolute" is my favorite new adjective
	10:04pm ultradamno: That's what wiki says...I imagine Germany was not OK with it then
	10:05pm Kat in Chicago: So much of this stuff is "ooh look at us we're transgressive", that's why I thought I wouldn't like the last set as much as I did.
	10:05pm Uncle Michael: How absolute? So absolute!
	10:06pm ?: (Johnny Carson voice)
	10:06pm Rich in Washington: I found a great scholarly article about fascist aesthetics in industrial music written in the late 90s and it's pretty interesting, eye opening.
	10:06pm ultradamno: I've been told by someone who knows them that Sleep Chamber are legit bdsm, but that's exactly how their stuff was taken by me at the time. They were made fun of quite a lot.
	10:07pm Zipperhead7: Rich -- what's the citation on that article?
	10:07pm Rich in Washington: one of my DJ pals who used to be a big Sleep Chamber fan when she lived in Boston and I love to make fun of their cover of Warm Leatherette. Wahm, leatuh-ette!
	10:07pm Kat in Chicago: I'd probably like this one without the moans
	10:08pm Rich in Washington: don't recall, ZH7. I think I have it as a PDF in my monstrous pile of PDF docs.
	10:08pm ultradamno: I do like a lot of Skullflower/Total but they are definitely in with that.
	10:16pm Zipperhead7: I got an email from someone whose kid started college recently. Stereos are not allowed in the dorms! Amazing . . .
	10:17pm Rich in Washington: Interesting. I guess they want people listening to Spotify on earbuds. Listening to music in a room is SO last century!
	10:18pm Kat in Chicago: Zipperhead, why? I can't imagine what my college experience would have been like without record players in the dorms. I still have vivid memories of dancing to Patti Smith and Talking Heads in friends' rooms.
	10:18pm ironybread: If there's one guy with a boombox and a CD of Bob Marley's "Legend", then college can continue. Those at least were the prerequisites when I was in college
	10:19pm Rich in Washington: shared cultural experiences are SO last century.
	10:19pm ultradamno: So whole dorms are like silent parties, everyone getting ear damage with headphones to escape the reality of hearing whole floors of crying freshmen
	10:20pm Kat in Chicago: I would have thought druidic rituals would make for slightly more exciting listening
	10:21pm Rich in Washington: They're conditioning kids for silently dying in ennui listening to the 21st century equivalent of Barry Manilow on their expensive ear apple ear things in their open office cubby.
	10:22pm ultradamno: The Dickies have a single called "A Gary Glitter Getaway"....and it's relatively recent?
	10:22pm Kat in Chicago: :( :( :(
	10:23pm ironybread: Wow, flashing back to Negativland 001 now
	10:24pm Rich in Washington: Oh yeah. The Dickies. Weren't they in some kind of dustup recently over whining about 'cancel culture'?
	10:24pm Zipperhead7: I suppose administators see it as noise pollution that impedes productivity, a distraction from the pursuit of the Perfect GPA. As she wrote, "The listening experience is now private and almost solitary, yet being pushed at us publicly from every marketing angle to sell, sell, sell." I knew we were in trouble when music began to be referred to as "content."
	10:25pm ultradamno: How could someone be mad about that when he's got dick puppet to play with?
	10:26pm ultradamno: The thing is, the worst part of the concept isn't the bad taste, it's how two decades ago it is.
	10:27pm Rich in Washington: maybe anti-circumcision activists are mad at them?
	10:28pm Rich in Washington: BTW: the missus and I really enjoyed the series How To Do It With John Wilson but the anti-circumcision segment was both hilarious and shocking.
	10:32pm ultradamno: I like the tunnel acoustics of this, I won't lie
	10:33pm Will the Sound Guy: Happy Birthday Rich
	10:33pm Feldy: ARB has played a lot of Nurse with Wound, I didn’t realize it was mid-eighties
	10:33pm Rich in Washington: There are some really enjoyable tracks on both these comps.
	10:34pm Rich in Washington: Thanks Will! Having a lovely B-Day tonight!
	10:34pm ironybread: I must say, circumcision can go away, as far as I'm concerned. Maybe I'm just cock-obsessed but I have to say, leave the gentlemen uncut, they'll love you for it later.
	10:35pm Rich in Washington: I wasn't consulted.
	10:36pm ultradamno: You wouldn't happen to have a copy of The Gizmos' "Gimme Back My Foreskin" would you". I'm pretty sure Gulchur hasn't cut it from the CDs.
	10:36pm Bri: Happy birthday Rich!
	10:36pm Rich in Washington: No! I've never heard of that!
	10:37pm Zipperhead7: I believe some guys filed lawsuits against their parents for this reason
	10:37pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Bri!
	10:38pm Rich in Washington: While miffed I wasn't consulted, it would be way down on the list of things I would sue my parents for.
	10:38pm Kat in Chicago: Circumcision is stupid
	10:38pm ultradamno: thegizmos.bandcamp.com...
	10:42pm ultradamno: ^I don't think the original release version is on BC yet, but it probably will be... It's on this one, which is mandatory listening gulcher.bigcartel.com...
	10:42pm Rich in Washington: oh wow. I hope I have time to play all of this comp!
	10:45pm davefromtoronto: is this soundtrack to the gif or vice versa
	10:47pm Kat in Chicago: 7-From Life seems more interested in making interesting noise than trying to shock me, i approve this one
	10:50pm Rich in Washington: Speaking of interesting noise, I've been enjoying the noisemaking kinetic sculptures of Petr Válek quite a lot.
	10:51pm Kat in Chicago: I like this one too
	10:56pm ironybread: I vote for Cratedigger's Lung going overtime if it needs to
	10:56pm ironybread: For aesthetic reasons
	10:56pm Feldy: Happy birthday, Rich! You get to have one.
	10:58pm Kat in Chicago: Do what you want, Rich!
	10:58pm Will the Sound Guy: Thank you Rich!!!
	10:59pm Kat in Chicago: Ronnie got a lot of well-deserved love this week on 'FMU
	10:59pm Rich in Washington: thanks, everybody! I'll play a few tracks I have cued up and go over a bit. Thanks for partying with me!
	11:01pm Zipperhead7: As someone noted, she looked like she could pull a switchblade outta that bouff. Happy birthday, Rich! Pinker and prouder than ever!
	11:01pm Scott67: Thanks Rich! Love from TRASH CULT! 👍😎🍻
	11:01pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Rich! enjoy the rest of your birthday! ...and actually i had it reversed before -your birthday is over here a few hours before it's over there. maybe i'll cheat and keep celebrating anyway
	11:01pm ultradamno: I know Nate played it while filling in for Dave The Spazz
	11:02pm ultradamno: (I think he also played Thunders' version on Oh, My Soul)
	11:03pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, coelacanth∅!
	11:03pm ironybread: oh you BASTARD I'm going to cry for an hour now. #MidnightRadio
	11:03pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Zipperhead7!
	11:04pm Rich in Washington: YOU'RE not crying! I'M crying!
	11:05pm Cp304: Happy birthday Rich 🎈 sorry I couldn't keep my eyes opened to chat or clilcky star everything
	11:05pm Rich in Washington: Thanks everybody! I'm grateful to have you as listeners and always fascinating commenters! <3
	11:05pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Cp!
	11:06pm Zipperhead7: Here is an AMAZING archive of radio and music mags from US and Britain. A colossal time sink:worldradiohistory.com
	11:08pm Will the Sound Guy: sweet cover
	11:10pm Kat in Chicago: Nice, Zipperhead. Bookmarked for browsing and to steal old artwork :)
	11:10pm ultradamno: I caught the Call Of The Wild movie from a year or two ago on cable, and I think all the dogs are entirely CG
	11:11pm ironybread: You rawk, as always, Rich!
	11:11pm Kat in Chicago: Thanks, Rich!
	11:13pm Will the Sound Guy: 🔥
	11:14pm ironybread: Hey, by the way, Buddy Runyan is apparently feeling much better now!!!!!!!!!!!
	11:14pm Kat in Chicago: EXCELLENT NEWS
	11:15pm Rich in Washington: Oh good! I was wondering!
	11:15pm Will the Sound Guy: nice
	11:15pm Rich in Washington: thanks everyone! Thanks for listening and for lovely birthday wishes! I hoist a pint or two in your honor!
