	♥ 1:08pm Handy Haversack: Rex! Fools! Lime!
	1:09pm Mister Dobalina: I like the way you're talkin', egould310.

	1:18pm P-90: “I’m bleeding in six places and took a bicycle chain to the face, but my ducktail is still perfect…!”
	1:18pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Hello everyone!
	🌮 ♥ 1:19pm rx scabin: Is it Martini time already?
	1:19pm Brez: Sounds like Saturday!
	♥ 1:19pm prof.fuzz: born to be mild (and streak)
	1:19pm Mister Dobalina: Has anyone D. the Spazz, maybe check the Staten Island ferry?
	1:19pm Joe: This is for Michael Shelley. I wasn't quick enough to catch him. He made a crack about someone asking for books about math. Here are my favorite books about math: The Soul of a New Machine--Tracy Kidder; Strange Attractors--Julien C. Sprott; Chaos--James Gleick; Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid--Douglas Hofstadter.
	1:19pm Hubig Pie: We now have contrast
	1:21pm Mister Dobalina: Nice driving cat, HP.
	♥ 1:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Man but this Program makes Saturday so much better.
	1:23pm WM: @RR Nov63: I read somewhere years before they recorded KOTJ the MC5 opened for the DC5.. "What was once only imagined is now proven."
	🌮 ♥ 1:23pm Bruce S.: Let there be contrast! Thanks Rex
	♥ 1:25pm Handy Haversack: Whoa, nice taco, Bruce S.!
	♥ 1:25pm Handy Haversack: (To me, James Earl Jones will always be Voice of the Magic Taco.)
	1:25pm egould310: Good God, the sun is coming out here in Seattle. Looks like a Saturday indoors listening to Rex, followed by twelve hours of watching old Westerns, gladiator flicks, kung fu movies, and whatever schlock I come across on Amazon Prime.
	1:25pm Mister Dobalina: Went ahead a clicky star fav'd this one.
	♥ 1:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @WM: That was the back cover of a Crawdaddy or some such periodical : A photo on top of the DC5 deboarding a plane - & same of MC5 beneath - with that caption (Tour/Destroy) ...have never found it again.
	🌮 ♥ 1:26pm Bruce S.: Yeah Iv'e got a pizza and a taco, all I need is a Hot Dog
	♥ 1:26pm mlsgrrl: Yep this is a great one for sure
	♥ 1:26pm Chris Hiatt: Momma.
	1:27pm Mister Dobalina: ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑
	♥ 1:27pm Handy Haversack: I'm waiting for Marathon to start up before allocating any of my S4L to specific shows, but it's hard to hold off! The waiting, you could say, is the hardest part.
	🌮 ♥ 1:28pm Baja Joe: Now I know everything about Carl William Raisch, born April 5, 1905 in North Bergen, New Jersey. Thank you Rex.
	♥ 1:29pm medson: I guess I made for a 90 minute excursion to nowhere.
	♥ 1:30pm Handy Haversack: OK, I am going to sit here and be totally vapid with youse all until 2 before I go back to the cooking and cleaning.
	🌮 ♥ 1:31pm Bruce S.: I did my pledging in advance but I don't know if I will get my name mentioned on the radio, not that that's important, no not much
	1:32pm TheManWhoLaughs: Uh oh...I smell a cautionary tale brewing
	♥ 1:32pm Handy Haversack: They definitely read out the names of the pre-Marathon pledgers, Bruce S. "Glowing emerald green" -- Rex's playlist is an alien probe! Beware seeds of thought, everyone!
	♥ 1:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...you could say on Saturday ...this Program is kinda one's Raisin d'être...
	1:34pm egould310: Not a cautionary tale. Close encounter of the third kind. He left off the verse with the anal probing.
	🌮 ♥ 1:35pm Bruce S.: RevRab63 is that the Beatles Dead Babies cover with the boys wearing covid masks?
	1:35pm TheManWhoLaughs: I guess he left that for our imagination
	1:37pm TheManWhoLaughs: Bill Raisch was great in Irma La Douce as 'One-Armed Man in Church (uncredited)'
	1:38pm egould310: I get all my restaurant suggestions from Rex’s city recommendations.
	🌮 ♥ 1:38pm rx scabin: I hold back some discretionary moola for during the marathon. It is weirdly exciting.
	1:39pm egould310: Did he ever guest on Burke’s Law?
	🌮 ♥ 1:40pm Bruce S.: every saturday is great wa wa
	1:40pm Mister Dobalina: The 'mOMMa's' are being handed out very sparingly today.
	♥ 1:42pm Little Danny: oh man love this jean shepard!
	🌮 ♥ 1:42pm Bruce S.: all his roles were either uncredited or named one arm, of course the one armed man is the most famous one armed character
	1:43pm Mister Dobalina: Road rash music if I've heard any...
	1:43pm Growlroo: This is my kind of gal!
	1:44pm Robm: Hello fellow fool’s
	1:47pm Mister Dobalina: Nickle beer?
	1:48pm TheManWhoLaughs: Poor imitation of a human being...my high school nickname!
	🌮 ♥ 1:49pm Bruce S.: wow george sounds so young
	1:51pm David Watts: Dang Rex, this hillbilly set is white lightning!
	1:52pm egould310: Here’s a cautionary tale. The lesson; never run out of booze.
	♥ 1:52pm Little Danny: oh heck yes
	1:52pm Kitschy Mama: Bottom Of The Barrel!
	♥ 1:52pm Handy Haversack: My credo, egould.
	1:53pm captain mike: Isn’t no nothing a Zen state of enlightenment?
	🌮 ♥ 1:53pm rx scabin: Ditto. Stock up.
	♥ 1:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yes but - he's got the Beat...
	1:53pm Hubig Pie: He took his first sip at an ice cream social
	1:54pm Mister Dobalina: Now we're talking!
	1:56pm Mailman Tom: Porter recorded a great record album with the title, The Cold Hard Facts of Life
	♥ 1:57pm Handy Haversack: A standard on Honky Tonk Radio Girl, Mailman Tom.
	1:57pm Mister Dobalina: MailMan T, wasted no time getting his taco.
	♥ 1:57pm DjLorraine: HARD shell taaacooos
	♥ 1:57pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, soft-shell tacos are such a disappointment.
	♥ 1:57pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Great to know that Rex is on the side of the angels regarding tacos. His cousin Potty Bear is not so enlightened.
	1:57pm egould310: @Hubig speaking of ice cream socials, were you aware that “Moonshiner’s Daughter” makes “Thunder Road” look like an ice cream social? It’s true. I heard it on Fool’s Paradise.
	1:58pm Dutch: Hi Fool's (nice to be able to say that without pun...oh...there's the pun) - and Rex of course.
	♥ 1:58pm A Bump in Burbank: Sorry for the dumdum question, but what is the Fool's Paradise signature howling sound? I'm stumped.
	♥ 1:59pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Bump, I always picture the wolf in Tex Avery's Red Hot Riding Hood
	♥ 1:59pm medson: I don't remember seeing hard shell tacos durning my two weeks in Mexico. Maybe thats just a radio thing.
	1:59pm Mailman Tom: Wolf howls
	1:59pm David Watts: Rex, I made "Peggy hill" tacos last night: all American ground beef, hardshell taco, lettuce onions tomatoes sour cream salsa. I got 50 pounds of ground beef from a rancher nearby!
	🌮 ♥ 2:00pm Bruce S.: I think Burt Reynolds took alot of his career from Thunder Road
	2:02pm Mister Dobalina: Wow, a rancher.. super jellys. I remember being in VT about 2 years ago & seeing a sign at a local market for a whole butchered cow & I thought to myself, who could I split that with... not a bad price either.. $900.
	2:02pm Hubig Pie: egould, if you heard it on FMU you know it's true.
	2:03pm Mister Dobalina: Oneirology, the scientific study of dreams.
	2:03pm egould310: Is this a dial-a-hitman type thing?
	2:03pm Hubig Pie: They also do a brisk business in 'erba stimulah'
	🌮 ♥ 2:04pm Bruce S.: A session with the Daniels Brothers would make a good Premium
	♥ 2:04pm Kotzwinkled: Where can one find that Daniel brothers Big Four recording?
	♥ 2:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...we gotcher wahwahs, yer tremeloes - all yoo wanna hear after some herbal stimuluh...
	🌮 ♥ 2:06pm rx scabin: How about soft corn tortilla?
	🌮 ♥ 2:06pm Bruce S.: wow the chuck Berry well is soooooo deep
	2:07pm egould310: This is rock music. Chuck Berry is a god.
	2:07pm Kitschy Mama: Love any song with “ya ya’s” in it.
	2:08pm Hubig Pie: rx scabin, file that under 'enchiladas'
	♥ 2:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ELMO
	♥ 2:09pm Handy Haversack: Hubig, you are very wise. In case I don't tell you often enough.
	🌮 ♥ 2:09pm rx scabin: No sauce.
	🌮 ♥ 2:09pm Bruce S.: Elmor James should always be in heavy rotation
	2:10pm Hubig Pie: Jah Handy, I am well versed in matters of food and drink.
	2:10pm Richard Whig: today's greatest track in the history of all time!
	♥ 2:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's his singing too.
	🌮 ♥ 2:12pm rx scabin: I am in favor of enchiladas, but also a "standard" taco made with a corn tortilla. Heretical.
	🌮 ♥ 2:13pm rx scabin: This show is making my day.
	2:13pm Bill C: Howdy Rex, enjoying the show today.
	♥ 2:14pm DjLorraine: Lookie there... the jitterbug from Brooklyn!
	🌮 ♥ 2:16pm Bruce S.: just slightly
	2:18pm egould310: It’s 2022. There’s plenty of room for hard shell tacos, soft shell, soft corn tortillas, enchiladas. Don’t listen to what “they” say. Put some filling in a tortilla of your choice and stuff it in your face. No shame. Don’t let “them” shame you. But what the hell is a “chalupa”?!?
	2:19pm Hubig Pie: rx scabin, take a corn tortilla and brush with veg. oil add some melty cheese and into a hot oven for 5 min. Fill with whatcha want, fold and you have a semi-soft, semi-hard shell taco and it good yes!!
	♥ 2:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...just don't want the Taco to fall apart. Anything reclining on a plate for a knife & fork is another matter...
	♥ 2:19pm DjLorraine: Package!. Oo
	♥ 2:19pm Handy Haversack: It's a real relief sometimes to get on a message board and talk about the truly important matters: booze and tacos. The pot heads get their chance all the time! We honest boozers need a little place to call our own.
	2:20pm Crocket and Tubbs: we're still talking about that down here.
	2:20pm Juke Joint Jonny: Gonna be some Jack Benny / Fred Allen fireworks on Music to Spazz by
	2:20pm egould310: Payola!
	2:21pm Jerry S: Spazz said it was ok to say... jock itch ... on the playlist... is it ok...?
	🌮 ♥ 2:21pm rx scabin: Can't one be in all the groups, Handy?
	♥ 2:21pm medson: Spazzco has a constant ear to the ground for talent. Hard working Co.
	2:21pm TheManWhoLaughs: Payola scandal at Spazzco?
	2:22pm Mister Dobalina: Tune'd in right in the perfect nick of time!
	2:22pm TheManWhoLaughs: He learned a lot from Alan Freed!
	🌮 ♥ 2:22pm rx scabin: Hubig- Let's discuss huevos rancheros.
	♥ 2:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Five bucks is five bucks.
	2:22pm Mister Dobalina: The DJ deck is Spazzin' !
	2:22pm egould310: A good bit ruined.
	2:23pm Mailman Tom: Into the circular file with it!
	🌮 ♥ 2:23pm rx scabin: Martini time, very soon. Not that I am watching the clock.
	♥ 2:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh yeah - lived in SantaBarbara many years. Huevos Rancheros all day long.
	🌮 ♥ 2:23pm Bruce S.: at least you got 5 bucks out of it
	2:23pm Kitschy Mama: Quite a teaser! 😉
	🌮 ♥ 2:24pm myron feld: Juke Joint Jonny, do you read me?
	2:24pm Juke Joint Jonny: With you, Boss.
	🌮 ♥ 2:24pm Bruce S.: only on WFMU would you ever hear something like that
	2:25pm Hubig Pie: rx scabin, same setup, don't fold but top with fried egg, frijoles (opptional) and ranchera salsa
	2:25pm egould310: Saxophone? Whyyyyyy?!?!?
	🌮 ♥ 2:26pm rx scabin: Similar here. I like the tortilla heated in a cast iron pan.
	♥ 2:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...filthy saxamophone gave distorted gittars something obscene to aspire to...
	♥ 2:27pm Handy Haversack: I made a Lucullus dines with Lucullus brunch for one today of cheesy toast topped with some left over spicy bean/broccoli/fake sausage stuff I'd made to top baked potatoes; sauteed onion and jalapeno with a dash of veg. Worcestershire sauce; and two very lightly fried eggs. I was pretty happy with it.
	♥ 2:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: How bourgeois. Just flip the tortilla on an open burner...
	2:30pm egould310: Gotta split thanx Rex! Bye fools! Get stupid!
	2:30pm Jerry S: ...jock itch....!
	2:30pm Hubig Pie: All this music is makin' me hungry
	♥ 2:30pm prof.fuzz: Dang. I step out for some tacos and come back in here and everyone's talking about tacos. Coincidence? I think NOT!
	2:30pm Mister Dobalina: CAREER IN BROADCASTING !
	♥ 2:31pm Handy Haversack: The prof.fuzz spy satellite worth its weight in gold!
	2:32pm Pinky: my peaches are still sweet
	♥ 2:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...or its wt. in tacos @ any rate...
	♥ 2:33pm prof.fuzz: Amen, Handy! Two carnitas on corn, and one steak on corn. Street tacos FTW!
	2:34pm Mister Dobalina: Seasonal, white peaches are the best. But, & this a big BUT, if you ever get a chance to try an elephant heart plum, the bees knees good!
	🌮 ♥ 2:34pm rx scabin: But, RRNov63 the pan is cast iron not some bourgeois non-stick. Also, the stove is 25 years old and the cheapest model.
	♥ 2:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: rx ...ok. Yeah.
	♥ 2:35pm prof.fuzz: @handy: our neighborhood taco joint also has a lot of veggie options.
	🌮 ♥ 2:35pm rx scabin: prof fuzz- are the tortilla crispy? There is a sort-of discussion here about that.
	🌮 ♥ 2:36pm Bruce S.: It would be great to locate Dave Luvner and get him to do a fool's paradise aircheck
	♥ 2:38pm Handy Haversack: OK, finished my book. Gotta go peel garlic, do dishes. Will stay listening and lunky! Many thanks, Rex. See you in tacos next Saturday! Stay paradised, Fools!
	2:39pm Kitschy Mama: Crazy Mr. Trammell went on to politics…
	♥ 2:40pm prof.fuzz: Soft corn tortillas, pan heated so they are just a bit crispy around the edges. Yum!
	🌮 ♥ 2:40pm Bruce S.: this is the shit
	♥ 2:41pm prof.fuzz: this song is the sweat
	2:41pm lb rich: great show man! thanks
	🌮 ♥ 2:42pm Bruce S.: go go were the action is!
	2:43pm Don F.: Great again show. Thanks Rex!
	2:43pm Juke Joint Jonny: When do you go go ... topless
	2:46pm Juke Joint Jonny: i'm going to run out of gold stars this set
	🌮 ♥ 2:46pm Bruce S.: major set Rex
	🌮 ♥ 2:48pm Bruce S.: actualy looking at the set list the whole show is pretty major
	2:48pm P-90: Rex killin’ it every gol-dang week. One of the very few things in life that consistent.
	🌮 ♥ 2:50pm rx scabin: Rex, excellent show. I can hardly wait for your marathon hi-jinks here and elsewhere. Goodbye, Rex and everyone. Martini time!

	♥ 1:19pm prof.fuzz: born to be mild (and streak)
	1:19pm Mister Dobalina: Has anyone D. the Spazz, maybe check the Staten Island ferry?
	1:19pm Joe: This is for Michael Shelley. I wasn't quick enough to catch him. He made a crack about someone asking for books about math. Here are my favorite books about math: The Soul of a New Machine--Tracy Kidder; Strange Attractors--Julien C. Sprott; Chaos--James Gleick; Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid--Douglas Hofstadter.
	1:19pm Hubig Pie: We now have contrast
	1:21pm Mister Dobalina: Nice driving cat, HP.
	♥ 1:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Man but this Program makes Saturday so much better.
	1:23pm WM: @RR Nov63: I read somewhere years before they recorded KOTJ the MC5 opened for the DC5.. "What was once only imagined is now proven."
	🌮 ♥ 1:23pm Bruce S.: Let there be contrast! Thanks Rex
	♥ 1:25pm Handy Haversack: Whoa, nice taco, Bruce S.!
	♥ 1:25pm Handy Haversack: (To me, James Earl Jones will always be Voice of the Magic Taco.)
	1:25pm egould310: Good God, the sun is coming out here in Seattle. Looks like a Saturday indoors listening to Rex, followed by twelve hours of watching old Westerns, gladiator flicks, kung fu movies, and whatever schlock I come across on Amazon Prime.
	1:25pm Mister Dobalina: Went ahead a clicky star fav'd this one.
	♥ 1:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @WM: That was the back cover of a Crawdaddy or some such periodical : A photo on top of the DC5 deboarding a plane - & same of MC5 beneath - with that caption (Tour/Destroy) ...have never found it again.
	🌮 ♥ 1:26pm Bruce S.: Yeah Iv'e got a pizza and a taco, all I need is a Hot Dog
	♥ 1:26pm mlsgrrl: Yep this is a great one for sure
	♥ 1:26pm Chris Hiatt: Momma.
	1:27pm Mister Dobalina: ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑
	♥ 1:27pm Handy Haversack: I'm waiting for Marathon to start up before allocating any of my S4L to specific shows, but it's hard to hold off! The waiting, you could say, is the hardest part.
	🌮 ♥ 1:28pm Baja Joe: Now I know everything about Carl William Raisch, born April 5, 1905 in North Bergen, New Jersey. Thank you Rex.
	♥ 1:29pm medson: I guess I made for a 90 minute excursion to nowhere.
	♥ 1:30pm Handy Haversack: OK, I am going to sit here and be totally vapid with youse all until 2 before I go back to the cooking and cleaning.
	🌮 ♥ 1:31pm Bruce S.: I did my pledging in advance but I don't know if I will get my name mentioned on the radio, not that that's important, no not much
	1:32pm TheManWhoLaughs: Uh oh...I smell a cautionary tale brewing
	♥ 1:32pm Handy Haversack: They definitely read out the names of the pre-Marathon pledgers, Bruce S. "Glowing emerald green" -- Rex's playlist is an alien probe! Beware seeds of thought, everyone!
	♥ 1:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...you could say on Saturday ...this Program is kinda one's Raisin d'être...
	1:34pm egould310: Not a cautionary tale. Close encounter of the third kind. He left off the verse with the anal probing.
	🌮 ♥ 1:35pm Bruce S.: RevRab63 is that the Beatles Dead Babies cover with the boys wearing covid masks?
	1:35pm TheManWhoLaughs: I guess he left that for our imagination
	1:37pm TheManWhoLaughs: Bill Raisch was great in Irma La Douce as 'One-Armed Man in Church (uncredited)'
	1:38pm egould310: I get all my restaurant suggestions from Rex’s city recommendations.
	🌮 ♥ 1:38pm rx scabin: I hold back some discretionary moola for during the marathon. It is weirdly exciting.
	1:39pm egould310: Did he ever guest on Burke’s Law?
	🌮 ♥ 1:40pm Bruce S.: every saturday is great wa wa
	1:40pm Mister Dobalina: The 'mOMMa's' are being handed out very sparingly today.
	♥ 1:42pm Little Danny: oh man love this jean shepard!
	🌮 ♥ 1:42pm Bruce S.: all his roles were either uncredited or named one arm, of course the one armed man is the most famous one armed character
	1:43pm Mister Dobalina: Road rash music if I've heard any...
	1:43pm Growlroo: This is my kind of gal!
	1:44pm Robm: Hello fellow fool’s
	1:47pm Mister Dobalina: Nickle beer?
	1:48pm TheManWhoLaughs: Poor imitation of a human being...my high school nickname!
	🌮 ♥ 1:49pm Bruce S.: wow george sounds so young
	1:51pm David Watts: Dang Rex, this hillbilly set is white lightning!
	1:52pm egould310: Here’s a cautionary tale. The lesson; never run out of booze.
	♥ 1:52pm Little Danny: oh heck yes
	1:52pm Kitschy Mama: Bottom Of The Barrel!
	♥ 1:52pm Handy Haversack: My credo, egould.
	1:53pm captain mike: Isn’t no nothing a Zen state of enlightenment?
	🌮 ♥ 1:53pm rx scabin: Ditto. Stock up.
	♥ 1:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yes but - he's got the Beat...
	1:53pm Hubig Pie: He took his first sip at an ice cream social
	1:54pm Mister Dobalina: Now we're talking!
	1:56pm Mailman Tom: Porter recorded a great record album with the title, The Cold Hard Facts of Life
	♥ 1:57pm Handy Haversack: A standard on Honky Tonk Radio Girl, Mailman Tom.
	1:57pm Mister Dobalina: MailMan T, wasted no time getting his taco.
	♥ 1:57pm DjLorraine: HARD shell taaacooos
	♥ 1:57pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, soft-shell tacos are such a disappointment.
	♥ 1:57pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Great to know that Rex is on the side of the angels regarding tacos. His cousin Potty Bear is not so enlightened.
	1:57pm egould310: @Hubig speaking of ice cream socials, were you aware that “Moonshiner’s Daughter” makes “Thunder Road” look like an ice cream social? It’s true. I heard it on Fool’s Paradise.
	1:58pm Dutch: Hi Fool's (nice to be able to say that without pun...oh...there's the pun) - and Rex of course.
	♥ 1:58pm A Bump in Burbank: Sorry for the dumdum question, but what is the Fool's Paradise signature howling sound? I'm stumped.
	♥ 1:59pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Bump, I always picture the wolf in Tex Avery's Red Hot Riding Hood
	♥ 1:59pm medson: I don't remember seeing hard shell tacos durning my two weeks in Mexico. Maybe thats just a radio thing.
	1:59pm Mailman Tom: Wolf howls
	1:59pm David Watts: Rex, I made "Peggy hill" tacos last night: all American ground beef, hardshell taco, lettuce onions tomatoes sour cream salsa. I got 50 pounds of ground beef from a rancher nearby!
	🌮 ♥ 2:00pm Bruce S.: I think Burt Reynolds took alot of his career from Thunder Road
	2:02pm Mister Dobalina: Wow, a rancher.. super jellys. I remember being in VT about 2 years ago & seeing a sign at a local market for a whole butchered cow & I thought to myself, who could I split that with... not a bad price either.. $900.
	2:02pm Hubig Pie: egould, if you heard it on FMU you know it's true.
	2:03pm Mister Dobalina: Oneirology, the scientific study of dreams.
	2:03pm egould310: Is this a dial-a-hitman type thing?
	2:03pm Hubig Pie: They also do a brisk business in 'erba stimulah'
	🌮 ♥ 2:04pm Bruce S.: A session with the Daniels Brothers would make a good Premium
	♥ 2:04pm Kotzwinkled: Where can one find that Daniel brothers Big Four recording?
	♥ 2:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...we gotcher wahwahs, yer tremeloes - all yoo wanna hear after some herbal stimuluh...
	🌮 ♥ 2:06pm rx scabin: How about soft corn tortilla?
	🌮 ♥ 2:06pm Bruce S.: wow the chuck Berry well is soooooo deep
	2:07pm egould310: This is rock music. Chuck Berry is a god.
	2:07pm Kitschy Mama: Love any song with “ya ya’s” in it.
	2:08pm Hubig Pie: rx scabin, file that under 'enchiladas'
	♥ 2:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ELMO
	♥ 2:09pm Handy Haversack: Hubig, you are very wise. In case I don't tell you often enough.
	🌮 ♥ 2:09pm rx scabin: No sauce.
	🌮 ♥ 2:09pm Bruce S.: Elmor James should always be in heavy rotation
	2:10pm Hubig Pie: Jah Handy, I am well versed in matters of food and drink.
	2:10pm Richard Whig: today's greatest track in the history of all time!
	♥ 2:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's his singing too.
	🌮 ♥ 2:12pm rx scabin: I am in favor of enchiladas, but also a "standard" taco made with a corn tortilla. Heretical.
	🌮 ♥ 2:13pm rx scabin: This show is making my day.
	2:13pm Bill C: Howdy Rex, enjoying the show today.
	♥ 2:14pm DjLorraine: Lookie there... the jitterbug from Brooklyn!
	🌮 ♥ 2:16pm Bruce S.: just slightly
	2:18pm egould310: It’s 2022. There’s plenty of room for hard shell tacos, soft shell, soft corn tortillas, enchiladas. Don’t listen to what “they” say. Put some filling in a tortilla of your choice and stuff it in your face. No shame. Don’t let “them” shame you. But what the hell is a “chalupa”?!?
	2:19pm Hubig Pie: rx scabin, take a corn tortilla and brush with veg. oil add some melty cheese and into a hot oven for 5 min. Fill with whatcha want, fold and you have a semi-soft, semi-hard shell taco and it good yes!!
	♥ 2:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...just don't want the Taco to fall apart. Anything reclining on a plate for a knife & fork is another matter...
	♥ 2:19pm DjLorraine: Package!. Oo
	♥ 2:19pm Handy Haversack: It's a real relief sometimes to get on a message board and talk about the truly important matters: booze and tacos. The pot heads get their chance all the time! We honest boozers need a little place to call our own.
	2:20pm Crocket and Tubbs: we're still talking about that down here.
	2:20pm Juke Joint Jonny: Gonna be some Jack Benny / Fred Allen fireworks on Music to Spazz by
	2:20pm egould310: Payola!
	2:21pm Jerry S: Spazz said it was ok to say... jock itch ... on the playlist... is it ok...?
	🌮 ♥ 2:21pm rx scabin: Can't one be in all the groups, Handy?
	♥ 2:21pm medson: Spazzco has a constant ear to the ground for talent. Hard working Co.
	2:21pm TheManWhoLaughs: Payola scandal at Spazzco?
	2:22pm Mister Dobalina: Tune'd in right in the perfect nick of time!
	2:22pm TheManWhoLaughs: He learned a lot from Alan Freed!
	🌮 ♥ 2:22pm rx scabin: Hubig- Let's discuss huevos rancheros.
	♥ 2:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Five bucks is five bucks.
	2:22pm Mister Dobalina: The DJ deck is Spazzin' !
	2:22pm egould310: A good bit ruined.
	2:23pm Mailman Tom: Into the circular file with it!
	🌮 ♥ 2:23pm rx scabin: Martini time, very soon. Not that I am watching the clock.
	♥ 2:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh yeah - lived in SantaBarbara many years. Huevos Rancheros all day long.
	🌮 ♥ 2:23pm Bruce S.: at least you got 5 bucks out of it
	2:23pm Kitschy Mama: Quite a teaser! 😉
	🌮 ♥ 2:24pm myron feld: Juke Joint Jonny, do you read me?
	2:24pm Juke Joint Jonny: With you, Boss.
	🌮 ♥ 2:24pm Bruce S.: only on WFMU would you ever hear something like that
	2:25pm Hubig Pie: rx scabin, same setup, don't fold but top with fried egg, frijoles (opptional) and ranchera salsa
	2:25pm egould310: Saxophone? Whyyyyyy?!?!?
	🌮 ♥ 2:26pm rx scabin: Similar here. I like the tortilla heated in a cast iron pan.
	♥ 2:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...filthy saxamophone gave distorted gittars something obscene to aspire to...
	♥ 2:27pm Handy Haversack: I made a Lucullus dines with Lucullus brunch for one today of cheesy toast topped with some left over spicy bean/broccoli/fake sausage stuff I'd made to top baked potatoes; sauteed onion and jalapeno with a dash of veg. Worcestershire sauce; and two very lightly fried eggs. I was pretty happy with it.
	♥ 2:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: How bourgeois. Just flip the tortilla on an open burner...
	2:30pm egould310: Gotta split thanx Rex! Bye fools! Get stupid!
	2:30pm Jerry S: ...jock itch....!
	2:30pm Hubig Pie: All this music is makin' me hungry
	♥ 2:30pm prof.fuzz: Dang. I step out for some tacos and come back in here and everyone's talking about tacos. Coincidence? I think NOT!
	2:30pm Mister Dobalina: CAREER IN BROADCASTING !
	♥ 2:31pm Handy Haversack: The prof.fuzz spy satellite worth its weight in gold!
	2:32pm Pinky: my peaches are still sweet
	♥ 2:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...or its wt. in tacos @ any rate...
	♥ 2:33pm prof.fuzz: Amen, Handy! Two carnitas on corn, and one steak on corn. Street tacos FTW!
	2:34pm Mister Dobalina: Seasonal, white peaches are the best. But, & this a big BUT, if you ever get a chance to try an elephant heart plum, the bees knees good!
	🌮 ♥ 2:34pm rx scabin: But, RRNov63 the pan is cast iron not some bourgeois non-stick. Also, the stove is 25 years old and the cheapest model.
	♥ 2:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: rx ...ok. Yeah.
	♥ 2:35pm prof.fuzz: @handy: our neighborhood taco joint also has a lot of veggie options.
	🌮 ♥ 2:35pm rx scabin: prof fuzz- are the tortilla crispy? There is a sort-of discussion here about that.
	🌮 ♥ 2:36pm Bruce S.: It would be great to locate Dave Luvner and get him to do a fool's paradise aircheck
	♥ 2:38pm Handy Haversack: OK, finished my book. Gotta go peel garlic, do dishes. Will stay listening and lunky! Many thanks, Rex. See you in tacos next Saturday! Stay paradised, Fools!
	2:39pm Kitschy Mama: Crazy Mr. Trammell went on to politics…
	♥ 2:40pm prof.fuzz: Soft corn tortillas, pan heated so they are just a bit crispy around the edges. Yum!
	🌮 ♥ 2:40pm Bruce S.: this is the shit
	♥ 2:41pm prof.fuzz: this song is the sweat
	2:41pm lb rich: great show man! thanks
