WFMU: Maraschino Melodrama with DJ Shangri-La: Playlist from March 1, 2022

Listener comments!
	6:00pm Mr Fab: Alooooooha!
	🍒 6:01pm Will the Sound Guy: hi dj Shangri-la and all!!!
	6:01pm Austin Rich: Good Hello.
	6:01pm Scott67: G'day Shangri-la & Loungers 🍻😎🤙🌻🌏🌷💜🇺🇦
	🍒 6:02pm Pauly from Clifton: Hiya, Shangri-La, Mr Fab, Will, Austin, Scotty! Happy Mardi Gras!
	6:02pm Austin Rich: Howdy Hey, Pauly!
	6:03pm Sarcofiguy: Hola!!!!!
	6:04pm Mr Fab: "How To Speak Hip" is possibly my fave comedy/spoken word album ever. Never gets un-funny.
	6:05pm Listener Robert: This is great mixed with what Micah's playing.
	6:05pm Austin Rich: We had a DJ at KPSU in Portland (and I guess he probably still DJs around Portland) who DJ'd under the name "Mr. Romo." He would play long clips from that album on his show and at his gigs, which is how I first found that album. I have a show I did in 2007 that is cuts from that album and songs intermixed.
	6:07pm shangri-lounge: Hey Fab, Will, Scott, Pauly, Austin, Sarcofiguy, Austin and Robert! Woo!
	6:08pm Austin Rich: Oooooo. Gettin' in the radio mood. I love it!
	6:08pm shangri-lounge: Yeah, I think it's a requirement for every DJ to have a show playing at least one or two tracks, Austin! I feel like I'm encountering a rite of passage. It's just too good not to.
	6:09pm Austin Rich: It really is. As Fab says: always funny. It should have been on the Voyager craft, too.
	6:11pm Krys O: Howdy!
	6:11pm Scott67: G'day Pauly! 👍😎🍻👣🐾
	6:12pm shangri-lounge: Hiii Krys! This one's for you.
	🍒 6:20pm Krys O.: Thanks, Shangri-La!
	6:25pm Austin Rich: Am I having a moment, or did Taylor Jessen have something to do with getting "How To Speak Hip" preserved? I feel like I heard a story about that and now I can't remember the details.
	🍒 6:26pm Pauly from Clifton: Hiya, Krys!
	6:28pm Dave the Spazz: Killer sounds!
	6:32pm shangri-lounge: Thanks, Dave! I was actually hoping you'd tune in for this one, haha.
	🍒 6:32pm Will the Sound Guy: I'm painting the ceiling in the nursery... enjoying the show so far Shangri-la!
	6:33pm Domenic: Is Bollywood a departure for you? You play a mix...
	6:33pm shangri-lounge: Ahhh - looks like who I see the little nursery is for! What a good dad. So cute. Thanks Will!
	6:34pm shangri-lounge: Hi Dom, I think it's a departure from this specific selection of tunes thus far!
	🍒 6:34pm Krys O.: How's the CEO, Will?
	6:34pm Domenic: Grant you that...
	🍒 6:36pm Will the Sound Guy: btw, hi Pauly, Scott, Austin, Mr Fab, sarcofiguy, Robert, Krys O, Dave the Spazz, Dominic, and any else! Krys, Charlotte is doing well... she's chillin downstairs with Mom...
	6:37pm Mr Fab: Bollywood is exotica to us non-Indians.
	🍒 6:43pm Krys O.: Oooooh, thanks for the Georgie.....swoon
	6:43pm Scott67: G'day Will 👍😎🍻
	6:44pm Sarcofiguy: @WILL: HEYYYY!
	6:47pm Austin Rich: I really need to put my dacin' shoes on. This episode rules!
	6:49pm shangri-lounge: Haha, thanks Austin. I find that socks work well on hardwood floors, too!
	6:50pm Austin Rich: We do have hardwood floors here! Though in the living room, I am a rope-and-slippers-w/-a-pipe kind of guy.
	6:50pm Austin Rich: (robe and slippers... pardon.)
	6:51pm Sarcofiguy: This ANN HENRY is the CAT'S PAJAMAS!!!!!
	🍒 6:51pm Krys O.: I was just dancing in my kitchen in my Croc flip-flops. Those marble tiles are slippery.
	6:53pm Austin Rich: I agree with Sarcofiguy. As a middle aged man who dances occasionally, I do all I can to prevent slippage.
	🍒 6:53pm Krys O.: All this coolness brings Maila Nurmi as a beatnik to mind.
	6:54pm shangri-lounge: I dream of getting myself a really luscious feathered robe, Austin. Just for airing my radio show in.
	🍒 6:55pm Krys O.: Like Eva Gabor in Green Acres.
	6:55pm Austin Rich: I have a cool old vintage men's robe that would look sharp with a fez and a pipe. But it needs some repairs, and I'm not very good with a needle and thread. I need to watch some videos.
	6:56pm Mr Fab: We need to cloak our selves in bubble wrap. Because when it comes to dancing, the most important thing is: safety first!
	6:56pm shangri-lounge: Yess, I need that kinda luxury in my life. My limited closet space would make it impossible. But, you know - someday!
	6:56pm Austin Rich: As an ex-skater who has the tattoos and the scars to prove it: Mr. Fab is (as always) right!
	6:57pm shangri-lounge: Men At Work were on to something with Safety (First) Dance.
	6:57pm Sarcofiguy: @AUSTIN: HAAAAAAH! I need all the calcium I can get if I'm gonna hazard sliding across the floor!
	6:57pm Mr Fab: I found a SMASHING velvet (or at least velvet-y) evening jacket for only like $8-9 at a thrift. Now all I need is an ascot.
	6:58pm Austin Rich: Mr. Fab: I have a feeling we need to hang out in the Lava Lamp Lounge together some night. There's lots of records! And usually bow ties and cocktails.
	6:59pm Austin Rich: (Sadly, the lounge has been closed due to covid regulations for quite some time. It's lonely in here.)
	6:59pm Mr Fab: I can bring the lava lamp!
	7:00pm Austin Rich: I just got a new base for one of mine, so I now have three working ones! I'd like more color range; two are red. But Someday I'll find another one in a different color.
	7:01pm Scott67: I have a lime wax Lava Lamp👍😎
	7:01pm Austin Rich: On the night's when I'm flying solo, and there's no radio, it's usually a pretty mellow scene in the lounge; just reading Conan and Hellboy comics, and occasionally cursing at the news.
	7:03pm Scott67: Austin, can I come over? 👍😎🍻
	7:03pm shangri-lounge: Quick change of plans. I'll get back to Jean Pierre!~
	7:03pm Austin Rich: @Scott67: Only if you bring that Teengenerate record.
	7:04pm Sarcofiguy: @AUSTIN: OH, LORT! You've got my geek button goin' on! I'm currently reading THE KING KULL OMNIBUS!
	7:04pm Austin Rich: Usually your change of plans sound pretty solid, @shangri-lounge. I'm down.
	7:04pm Austin Rich: I wanna get that omnibus!
	7:05pm Austin Rich: (My jam is weird barbarian comics from the 70's, psychedelic Steve Ditko stuff, any anything Kirby / Mignola. Though some of the politics of people like Ditko kinda weird me out.)
	🍒 7:05pm WR: How late is too late?
	7:06pm Sarcofiguy: It's got all the great black and white mags in it. I'm up John Bolton's DEMON IN A SILVERED GLASS. My JAM is always ELRIC graphic novels.
	7:07pm Austin Rich: I haven't read any Elric in AGES! (When I borrowed it from an old friend.) I should re-read those; I remember loving them. I've probably read the Cerebus Elric parodies more recently than I've ready Elric.
	7:09pm Scott67: Someone grab a mop! Geekout in aisle 9! 👍😎
	🍒 7:09pm Krys O.: Pearl!!!!!
	7:10pm Austin Rich: (I think this happens every time Sarcofiguy and I start talking comics.)
	7:11pm shangri-lounge: I'm loving Pearl lately, Krys!
	7:12pm Domenic: Oh she's great. South American men make the best lovers LOL
	7:13pm Sarcofiguy: @SCOTT: I KNOWWWWWWW! HAHAHAHAH! @AUSTIN: Titan Comics has been re-printing the Elric comics. Plus there's new renditions from them, translated from French versions. They're WONDERFUL!
	7:13pm Scott67: I craved old comics throughout Lockdown. Wanted to regress (don't need to go far) to my childhood. & just hide in a blanket fort reading comics & listening to FMU. Oh with the adult addition of beer! Still don't have any comics. 👍😎🍻
	7:15pm Austin Rich: @Scott67: When I was under "lockdown" before (college, no time to leave campus and go shopping), I ordered in a lot of comics. It's not the same as going to the store, but it got me through those dead weeks, for sure.
	7:15pm Scott67: Think I may build a blanket fort today, rather than watch the News. 🌏
	7:16pm Sarcofiguy: Scott: I'm totally a wino with my comic collection, which is fairly overrunning the house right now. I totally MISS blanket forts! Thank you for conjuring that grand, grand memory!
	7:16pm Mr Fab: Pearl Bailey should be way more remembered than she is. So funny. What a character.
	🍒 7:16pm Krys O.: @Shangri-La: I think I have a Pearl Bailey comp somewhere. She was a better Dolly Levi than Streisand, IMO.
	7:16pm Sarcofiguy: @FAB: There were times when I just wanted to her to sing, and not talk, cuz she had an AMAZING voice!
	7:16pm Austin Rich: @Sacrofiguy: I need to get those re-prints! I've been meaning to fill in some holes in my collection. I just got a wonderful reprint of Usagi Yojimbo that looks beautiful, and actually fills me in on the story that I've never been 100% clear on!
	7:17pm Sarcofiguy: @KRYS: I actually loved Carol Channing as DOLLY!
	7:18pm Sarcofiguy: @AUSTIN: I need to get into Usagi. I remember enjoying the art.
	🍒 7:19pm Krys O.: Aye, Carol was THEE best, of course. Pearl just had more oomph than Barbra.
	7:19pm Sarcofiguy: Agreed!!!!!
	7:19pm Austin Rich: @Sarcofiguy: Great art, and a fun story, too. It's about as close to Samurai movies as I've seen in comics. And the ongoing story about the kingdom and the world is developed slowly, and in a way that really builds well. I'm in awe; it's almost quiet in how good it is.
	7:20pm Austin Rich: (Okay, there might not be time for this fundraiser, but Sacrofiguy and I need a comics talk show one of these days.)
	7:20pm Sarcofiguy: @KRYS: Who's your favorite MAME? Lucille Ball or Rosalind Russell?!!!!
	7:20pm Sarcofiguy: @AUSTIN: DONE. DEAL!!!! LET'S DO IT!!!!
	🍒 7:21pm Krys O.: Roz.
	7:21pm Sarcofiguy: @KRYS: Yeah, that movie makes me cry like from all the coolness. Agreed. Roz. Yeah.
	7:22pm Austin Rich: Hell yeah. Good excuse to get a subscription again, so I can complain about how bad Green Lantern has gotten (I assume). The last time I checked in with Green Lantern it was like a military recruitment comic. It was weird.
	7:22pm Mr Fab: Ha, a comics talk show ain’t a bad idea. I have a bit of a collection of songs inspired by comics, you could thro those in, too. But you gotta talk about EC!!
	7:23pm Austin Rich: EC, hell Yeah!
	🍒 7:23pm Krys O.: I'd love to visit my cousins in Buenos Aires someday. My dad always told us about our relatives in Argentina. I connected with the younger second cousins through Facebook just before my dad passed.
	7:23pm Austin Rich: When I was in college, I ran a comic club, and I remember we were always looking for comics songs. I should dig up those files...
	7:24pm Sarcofiguy: @FAB: I fear my EC knowledge is sorely lacking. Only recently did I start getting into Eerie Comics because of my RICHARD CORBEN and ALEX TOTH collections. Both brilliant!
	🍒 7:24pm WR: Wow, Krys, that could be interesting. Always different to visit a country when you have family to hang with.
	7:24pm Austin Rich: Alex Toth = xxx-ooo
	7:25pm Sarcofiguy: I've been threatening in my mind to scrape together superhero songs!
	7:25pm Mr Fab: Krys, alas my knowledge of Argentina is pretty much to tangos and empanadas, but those are two good things indeed.
	7:25pm Austin Rich: Again, the food talk. We need a cooking show on Sheena's, for sure.
	7:26pm Mr Fab: It’s the Cooking and Comics Hour!
	7:26pm Sarcofiguy: HAHAHAHAHAHAAH!
	🍒 7:27pm Krys O.: One of my cousins in B.A. has a catering business. Her desserts look divine.
	🍒 7:28pm Krys O.: I know someone who was a pastry chef and he posted some funny videos about making bread and bagels in the nude.
	7:29pm Scott67: Reminds me, I have leftover Pizza in the fridge... & beer!!! Cheers! 🍻👍😎🍕
	7:29pm Austin Rich: I wanted to do "cooking radio" where it was most us talking about food, and then going to get the thing we were the most hungry for at the end. But it feel like torture.
	7:29pm Sarcofiguy: @KRYS: What did he proof the bagels on? NYAHhahahahah!
	🍒 7:30pm Krys O.: I'm shoveling popcorn in my mouth after eating a veggie gyro.
	7:31pm Austin Rich: This Black Leather Rock song is AMAZING!
	7:31pm Mr Fab: From what I understand, yes, this is Oliver Reed singing. As they say on "World's Worst Records": Singing Actor of the Week!
	7:32pm Scott67: There's an online Aussie cooking show called "Nat's What I Reckon" he calls a microwave, a Tucka Fucka.💀
	🍒 7:32pm Krys O.: Ooh, Losey's Damned. The joke, Sarcofiguy is that you only see his hands in frame.
	7:33pm Sarcofiguy: @SCOTT: Now THAT'S an image!
	🍒 7:34pm Krys O.: @Scott: I have cousins in Australia too. I think they're in Canberra. Never connected with them online though. Australia and Argentina were options when my parents were emigrating after WWII.
	7:34pm Sarcofiguy: @KRYS: That's comical. I'd be afraid to do any cooking, frying, baking, in the nude, for all the obvious reasons. Hot grease jumps FIVE FEET!
	🍒 7:34pm WR: Space Guitar!
	🍒 7:34pm Krys O.: YESS!!! My fave! I used to play Space Guitar a lot on my show back in the day.
	7:35pm Austin Rich: Johnny "Guitar" Watson RULES.
	7:35pm Scott67: Krys, well you're welcome to migrate here in WWIII. ✌😎🌷
	7:36pm Sarcofiguy: This is swingin', daddy OH! Truly copacetic!
	7:38pm David in California: Hello, DJ Shangri-La! He doesn't mention "Black Leather Rock", but Sheena DJ Darryl has an amusing post about Oliver Reed's recording career at his (Darryl's) blog: worldsworstrecords.blogspot.com...
	7:38pm Sarcofiguy: The background singers on this Van Doren cut are FANTASTIC!
	🍒 7:39pm Krys O.: Cheers, Scott. It could be like the movie On the Beach.
	7:42pm Sarcofiguy: About Mamie Van Doren: In her autobiography, Van Doren acknowledged that she had numerous affairs with celebrities, including Clark Gable, Howard Hughes, Johnny Carson, Elvis Presley, Burt Reynolds, Jack Dempsey, Steve McQueen, Clint Eastwood, Johnny Rivers, Robert Evans, Eddie Fisher, Warren Beatty, Tony Curtis, Steve Cochran, and Joe Namath.[18] Claiming fidelity to each lover, she said "I don't wear panties anymore - this startles the Hollywood wolves so much they don't know what to pull at, so they leave me alone."
	7:42pm Scott67: Krys, I was in the TV remake of that. I hope I never act it out for real. ✌😎🌷
	🍒 7:43pm WR: Enjoying the jazz tunes in the lounge today. Freddie Hubbard with Herbie.
	7:45pm Austin Rich: My headache is almost gone... thanks @Shangri-lounge.
	7:46pm ironybread: Thanks for the groovy noises, Shang
	7:47pm Austin Rich: Hey! It's @ironybread! Howdy Howdy!
	7:47pm Austin Rich: I just got my second Monk album not too long ago. VERY GOOD.
	7:48pm shangri-lounge: Austin was jut asking a Q about you earlier, Ironybread!
	7:48pm Domenic: this is Monk...
	7:49pm Austin Rich: I was saying that I thought you told me the story about preserving the "How to Speak Hip" LP, @ironybread. At least, I think I remember us talking about that LP.
	7:51pm ironybread: Curtis Steigers has a younger brother, Jake Steigers. Jake was the same year as me in high school in Boise, Idaho. Jake was a gifted scatter and when he appeared at the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival in Moscow, they did "Straight No Chaser" and killed it. He and I were in a band together for exactly one gig. Our band's name was "Brown Muffin". Jake came up with the name when a journalist called him asking what was the name of his band and he was cooking muffins and he had to think up a band name quick.
	7:52pm Austin Rich: That is the perfect way to come up with the name of a band!
	7:52pm ironybread: Austin - there's a local label here in Burbank to whom I pitched "How to Speak Hip" as an LP re-release. The project isn't dead. That's all I can say for it!
	7:52pm ironybread: #Like #YouDig
	7:52pm Austin Rich: Mums the word!
	7:52pm Sarcofiguy: @IRONY: THAT IS--HILARIOUS!!!!!
	7:53pm Mr Fab: "Sad, sad, sad, but TRUE!" LOLOL
	🍒 7:53pm Pauly from Clifton: I dig, Shangri-La! Thanks!
	7:53pm David in California: Like, thank you, DJ Shangri-La, man!
	7:54pm ironybread: Like, you're hip, Shangri-La! Thanks for the noisy noises
	🍒 7:54pm Krys O.: Thanks, Shangri-La!
	7:54pm Austin Rich: Great show! Thanks again!
	🍒 7:54pm WR: Thank You!
	7:54pm Sarcofiguy: Thanks for a great show!
	7:54pm Scott67: Thanks Shangri-la, your Show is a musical blanket fort in my lounge! ✌😎💨🌷
	7:55pm Domenic: Thanks!
	7:55pm Mr Fab: Mahalo, Shangri-La!
	🍒 7:55pm Krys O.: Here's the link to the Wiggle RoomL wfmu.org...
	7:56pm shangri-lounge: Thanks guys for entertaining all my lil fledgling dj aspirations!
	🍒 7:57pm Will the Sound Guy: thank you DJ Shangri-la

	6:49pm shangri-lounge: Haha, thanks Austin. I find that socks work well on hardwood floors, too!
	6:50pm Austin Rich: We do have hardwood floors here! Though in the living room, I am a rope-and-slippers-w/-a-pipe kind of guy.
	6:50pm Austin Rich: (robe and slippers... pardon.)
	6:51pm Sarcofiguy: This ANN HENRY is the CAT'S PAJAMAS!!!!!
	🍒 6:51pm Krys O.: I was just dancing in my kitchen in my Croc flip-flops. Those marble tiles are slippery.
	6:53pm Austin Rich: I agree with Sarcofiguy. As a middle aged man who dances occasionally, I do all I can to prevent slippage.
	🍒 6:53pm Krys O.: All this coolness brings Maila Nurmi as a beatnik to mind.
	6:54pm shangri-lounge: I dream of getting myself a really luscious feathered robe, Austin. Just for airing my radio show in.
	🍒 6:55pm Krys O.: Like Eva Gabor in Green Acres.
	6:55pm Austin Rich: I have a cool old vintage men's robe that would look sharp with a fez and a pipe. But it needs some repairs, and I'm not very good with a needle and thread. I need to watch some videos.
	6:56pm Mr Fab: We need to cloak our selves in bubble wrap. Because when it comes to dancing, the most important thing is: safety first!
	6:56pm shangri-lounge: Yess, I need that kinda luxury in my life. My limited closet space would make it impossible. But, you know - someday!
	6:56pm Austin Rich: As an ex-skater who has the tattoos and the scars to prove it: Mr. Fab is (as always) right!
	6:57pm shangri-lounge: Men At Work were on to something with Safety (First) Dance.
	6:57pm Sarcofiguy: @AUSTIN: HAAAAAAH! I need all the calcium I can get if I'm gonna hazard sliding across the floor!
	6:57pm Mr Fab: I found a SMASHING velvet (or at least velvet-y) evening jacket for only like $8-9 at a thrift. Now all I need is an ascot.
	6:58pm Austin Rich: Mr. Fab: I have a feeling we need to hang out in the Lava Lamp Lounge together some night. There's lots of records! And usually bow ties and cocktails.
	6:59pm Austin Rich: (Sadly, the lounge has been closed due to covid regulations for quite some time. It's lonely in here.)
	6:59pm Mr Fab: I can bring the lava lamp!
	7:00pm Austin Rich: I just got a new base for one of mine, so I now have three working ones! I'd like more color range; two are red. But Someday I'll find another one in a different color.
	7:01pm Scott67: I have a lime wax Lava Lamp👍😎
	7:01pm Austin Rich: On the night's when I'm flying solo, and there's no radio, it's usually a pretty mellow scene in the lounge; just reading Conan and Hellboy comics, and occasionally cursing at the news.
	7:03pm Scott67: Austin, can I come over? 👍😎🍻
	7:03pm shangri-lounge: Quick change of plans. I'll get back to Jean Pierre!~
	7:03pm Austin Rich: @Scott67: Only if you bring that Teengenerate record.
	7:04pm Sarcofiguy: @AUSTIN: OH, LORT! You've got my geek button goin' on! I'm currently reading THE KING KULL OMNIBUS!
	7:04pm Austin Rich: Usually your change of plans sound pretty solid, @shangri-lounge. I'm down.
	7:04pm Austin Rich: I wanna get that omnibus!
	7:05pm Austin Rich: (My jam is weird barbarian comics from the 70's, psychedelic Steve Ditko stuff, any anything Kirby / Mignola. Though some of the politics of people like Ditko kinda weird me out.)
	🍒 7:05pm WR: How late is too late?
	7:06pm Sarcofiguy: It's got all the great black and white mags in it. I'm up John Bolton's DEMON IN A SILVERED GLASS. My JAM is always ELRIC graphic novels.
	7:07pm Austin Rich: I haven't read any Elric in AGES! (When I borrowed it from an old friend.) I should re-read those; I remember loving them. I've probably read the Cerebus Elric parodies more recently than I've ready Elric.
	7:09pm Scott67: Someone grab a mop! Geekout in aisle 9! 👍😎
	🍒 7:09pm Krys O.: Pearl!!!!!
	7:10pm Austin Rich: (I think this happens every time Sarcofiguy and I start talking comics.)
	7:11pm shangri-lounge: I'm loving Pearl lately, Krys!
	7:12pm Domenic: Oh she's great. South American men make the best lovers LOL
	7:13pm Sarcofiguy: @SCOTT: I KNOWWWWWWW! HAHAHAHAH! @AUSTIN: Titan Comics has been re-printing the Elric comics. Plus there's new renditions from them, translated from French versions. They're WONDERFUL!
	7:13pm Scott67: I craved old comics throughout Lockdown. Wanted to regress (don't need to go far) to my childhood. & just hide in a blanket fort reading comics & listening to FMU. Oh with the adult addition of beer! Still don't have any comics. 👍😎🍻
	7:15pm Austin Rich: @Scott67: When I was under "lockdown" before (college, no time to leave campus and go shopping), I ordered in a lot of comics. It's not the same as going to the store, but it got me through those dead weeks, for sure.
	7:15pm Scott67: Think I may build a blanket fort today, rather than watch the News. 🌏
	7:16pm Sarcofiguy: Scott: I'm totally a wino with my comic collection, which is fairly overrunning the house right now. I totally MISS blanket forts! Thank you for conjuring that grand, grand memory!
	7:16pm Mr Fab: Pearl Bailey should be way more remembered than she is. So funny. What a character.
	🍒 7:16pm Krys O.: @Shangri-La: I think I have a Pearl Bailey comp somewhere. She was a better Dolly Levi than Streisand, IMO.
	7:16pm Sarcofiguy: @FAB: There were times when I just wanted to her to sing, and not talk, cuz she had an AMAZING voice!
	7:16pm Austin Rich: @Sacrofiguy: I need to get those re-prints! I've been meaning to fill in some holes in my collection. I just got a wonderful reprint of Usagi Yojimbo that looks beautiful, and actually fills me in on the story that I've never been 100% clear on!
	7:17pm Sarcofiguy: @KRYS: I actually loved Carol Channing as DOLLY!
	7:18pm Sarcofiguy: @AUSTIN: I need to get into Usagi. I remember enjoying the art.
	🍒 7:19pm Krys O.: Aye, Carol was THEE best, of course. Pearl just had more oomph than Barbra.
	7:19pm Sarcofiguy: Agreed!!!!!
	7:19pm Austin Rich: @Sarcofiguy: Great art, and a fun story, too. It's about as close to Samurai movies as I've seen in comics. And the ongoing story about the kingdom and the world is developed slowly, and in a way that really builds well. I'm in awe; it's almost quiet in how good it is.
	7:20pm Austin Rich: (Okay, there might not be time for this fundraiser, but Sacrofiguy and I need a comics talk show one of these days.)
	7:20pm Sarcofiguy: @KRYS: Who's your favorite MAME? Lucille Ball or Rosalind Russell?!!!!
	7:20pm Sarcofiguy: @AUSTIN: DONE. DEAL!!!! LET'S DO IT!!!!
	🍒 7:21pm Krys O.: Roz.
	7:21pm Sarcofiguy: @KRYS: Yeah, that movie makes me cry like from all the coolness. Agreed. Roz. Yeah.
	7:22pm Austin Rich: Hell yeah. Good excuse to get a subscription again, so I can complain about how bad Green Lantern has gotten (I assume). The last time I checked in with Green Lantern it was like a military recruitment comic. It was weird.
	7:22pm Mr Fab: Ha, a comics talk show ain’t a bad idea. I have a bit of a collection of songs inspired by comics, you could thro those in, too. But you gotta talk about EC!!
	7:23pm Austin Rich: EC, hell Yeah!
	🍒 7:23pm Krys O.: I'd love to visit my cousins in Buenos Aires someday. My dad always told us about our relatives in Argentina. I connected with the younger second cousins through Facebook just before my dad passed.
	7:23pm Austin Rich: When I was in college, I ran a comic club, and I remember we were always looking for comics songs. I should dig up those files...
	7:24pm Sarcofiguy: @FAB: I fear my EC knowledge is sorely lacking. Only recently did I start getting into Eerie Comics because of my RICHARD CORBEN and ALEX TOTH collections. Both brilliant!
	🍒 7:24pm WR: Wow, Krys, that could be interesting. Always different to visit a country when you have family to hang with.
	7:24pm Austin Rich: Alex Toth = xxx-ooo
	7:25pm Sarcofiguy: I've been threatening in my mind to scrape together superhero songs!
	7:25pm Mr Fab: Krys, alas my knowledge of Argentina is pretty much to tangos and empanadas, but those are two good things indeed.
	7:25pm Austin Rich: Again, the food talk. We need a cooking show on Sheena's, for sure.
	7:26pm Mr Fab: It’s the Cooking and Comics Hour!
	7:26pm Sarcofiguy: HAHAHAHAHAHAAH!
	🍒 7:27pm Krys O.: One of my cousins in B.A. has a catering business. Her desserts look divine.
	🍒 7:28pm Krys O.: I know someone who was a pastry chef and he posted some funny videos about making bread and bagels in the nude.
	7:29pm Scott67: Reminds me, I have leftover Pizza in the fridge... & beer!!! Cheers! 🍻👍😎🍕
	7:29pm Austin Rich: I wanted to do "cooking radio" where it was most us talking about food, and then going to get the thing we were the most hungry for at the end. But it feel like torture.
	7:29pm Sarcofiguy: @KRYS: What did he proof the bagels on? NYAHhahahahah!
	🍒 7:30pm Krys O.: I'm shoveling popcorn in my mouth after eating a veggie gyro.
	7:31pm Austin Rich: This Black Leather Rock song is AMAZING!
	7:31pm Mr Fab: From what I understand, yes, this is Oliver Reed singing. As they say on "World's Worst Records": Singing Actor of the Week!
	7:32pm Scott67: There's an online Aussie cooking show called "Nat's What I Reckon" he calls a microwave, a Tucka Fucka.💀
	🍒 7:32pm Krys O.: Ooh, Losey's Damned. The joke, Sarcofiguy is that you only see his hands in frame.
	7:33pm Sarcofiguy: @SCOTT: Now THAT'S an image!
	🍒 7:34pm Krys O.: @Scott: I have cousins in Australia too. I think they're in Canberra. Never connected with them online though. Australia and Argentina were options when my parents were emigrating after WWII.
	7:34pm Sarcofiguy: @KRYS: That's comical. I'd be afraid to do any cooking, frying, baking, in the nude, for all the obvious reasons. Hot grease jumps FIVE FEET!
	🍒 7:34pm WR: Space Guitar!
	🍒 7:34pm Krys O.: YESS!!! My fave! I used to play Space Guitar a lot on my show back in the day.
	7:35pm Austin Rich: Johnny "Guitar" Watson RULES.
	7:35pm Scott67: Krys, well you're welcome to migrate here in WWIII. ✌😎🌷
	7:36pm Sarcofiguy: This is swingin', daddy OH! Truly copacetic!
	7:38pm David in California: Hello, DJ Shangri-La! He doesn't mention "Black Leather Rock", but Sheena DJ Darryl has an amusing post about Oliver Reed's recording career at his (Darryl's) blog: worldsworstrecords.blogspot.com...
	7:38pm Sarcofiguy: The background singers on this Van Doren cut are FANTASTIC!
	🍒 7:39pm Krys O.: Cheers, Scott. It could be like the movie On the Beach.
	7:42pm Sarcofiguy: About Mamie Van Doren: In her autobiography, Van Doren acknowledged that she had numerous affairs with celebrities, including Clark Gable, Howard Hughes, Johnny Carson, Elvis Presley, Burt Reynolds, Jack Dempsey, Steve McQueen, Clint Eastwood, Johnny Rivers, Robert Evans, Eddie Fisher, Warren Beatty, Tony Curtis, Steve Cochran, and Joe Namath.[18] Claiming fidelity to each lover, she said "I don't wear panties anymore - this startles the Hollywood wolves so much they don't know what to pull at, so they leave me alone."
	7:42pm Scott67: Krys, I was in the TV remake of that. I hope I never act it out for real. ✌😎🌷
	🍒 7:43pm WR: Enjoying the jazz tunes in the lounge today. Freddie Hubbard with Herbie.
	7:45pm Austin Rich: My headache is almost gone... thanks @Shangri-lounge.
	7:46pm ironybread: Thanks for the groovy noises, Shang
	7:47pm Austin Rich: Hey! It's @ironybread! Howdy Howdy!
	7:47pm Austin Rich: I just got my second Monk album not too long ago. VERY GOOD.
	7:48pm shangri-lounge: Austin was jut asking a Q about you earlier, Ironybread!
	7:48pm Domenic: this is Monk...
	7:49pm Austin Rich: I was saying that I thought you told me the story about preserving the "How to Speak Hip" LP, @ironybread. At least, I think I remember us talking about that LP.
	7:51pm ironybread: Curtis Steigers has a younger brother, Jake Steigers. Jake was the same year as me in high school in Boise, Idaho. Jake was a gifted scatter and when he appeared at the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival in Moscow, they did "Straight No Chaser" and killed it. He and I were in a band together for exactly one gig. Our band's name was "Brown Muffin". Jake came up with the name when a journalist called him asking what was the name of his band and he was cooking muffins and he had to think up a band name quick.
	7:52pm Austin Rich: That is the perfect way to come up with the name of a band!
	7:52pm ironybread: Austin - there's a local label here in Burbank to whom I pitched "How to Speak Hip" as an LP re-release. The project isn't dead. That's all I can say for it!
	7:52pm ironybread: #Like #YouDig
	7:52pm Austin Rich: Mums the word!
	7:52pm Sarcofiguy: @IRONY: THAT IS--HILARIOUS!!!!!
	7:53pm Mr Fab: "Sad, sad, sad, but TRUE!" LOLOL
	🍒 7:53pm Pauly from Clifton: I dig, Shangri-La! Thanks!
	7:53pm David in California: Like, thank you, DJ Shangri-La, man!
	7:54pm ironybread: Like, you're hip, Shangri-La! Thanks for the noisy noises
	🍒 7:54pm Krys O.: Thanks, Shangri-La!
	7:54pm Austin Rich: Great show! Thanks again!
	🍒 7:54pm WR: Thank You!
	7:54pm Sarcofiguy: Thanks for a great show!
	7:54pm Scott67: Thanks Shangri-la, your Show is a musical blanket fort in my lounge! ✌😎💨🌷
	7:55pm Domenic: Thanks!
	7:55pm Mr Fab: Mahalo, Shangri-La!
	🍒 7:55pm Krys O.: Here's the link to the Wiggle RoomL wfmu.org...
	7:56pm shangri-lounge: Thanks guys for entertaining all my lil fledgling dj aspirations!
	🍒 7:57pm Will the Sound Guy: thank you DJ Shangri-la
