	🤖 6:06pm Bas NL: Mark & Matt.... :D Hi all!
	🤖 6:06pm Handy Haversack: Ave Bas!
	🤖 6:06pm tim from washington: Hey Chresti!
	🤖 6:07pm Bas NL: Hi Handy!
	6:07pm Yes: Can we get a list of new Matt apps for pledges?
	6:07pm P-90: If anyone can get Mark to lighten up, it’s Matt. Or maybe Mark will influence Matt to act real serious like. We’ll see…
	🤖 6:08pm chresti: Hi tim!
	6:08pm dale: i just broke up with my landline of 28 years.
	🤖 6:09pm Handy Haversack: My landline (and only line) is fiber optic now. No copper wire involved. It's creepy. There's a car battery that will give us eight hours of talking time when civilization breaks down.
	6:10pm listener 126464: I'm not ready to give up my phonebook.
	🤖 6:10pm tim from washington: Specially annotated by Mark! Now that's s prize!
	6:11pm P-90: I’ve been telling people for years that it’s important to preserve “hard-wired” phone lines, so vital communications can continue in the event of a disruption of digital service. People mostly don’t get it…
	6:11pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Hi Mark! Hello Matt!
	6:12pm melinda: @Handy that's sad. I'd like to have the option of fiber internet but replacing phone with it seems a bad path. I still have my old landline.
	6:12pm D Rok: You don't need a phone to fall down a hole.
	🤖 6:12pm Will the Sound Guy: we're supposed to have massive solar flares soon
	6:12pm StringOFperils: There should be a GPS app for holes.
	🤖 6:13pm Handy Haversack: I was pretty freaked when they didn't leave the copper wire connected, P-90. The same FO cable brings us the internet. Will, how many pounds of aluminum foil should I add to my FM antenna?
	6:13pm dale: when i was 6 or 7 i fell into a hole where coal was dumped down into a cellar for a greenhouse. just went down - FLUMP. came out dizzy and covered with black.
	6:13pm JJ NY-SC: Why is there an open hole in a warehouse like that!
	🤖 6:14pm tim from washington: Man, when I lived in college towns it seemed like there was at least one death a year from students walking into traffic while looking at their phone.That's so sad.
	🤖 6:14pm Handy Haversack: Maybe Greg would design a sticker I can add to the shirt showing me about to kick the phone drone off the cliff.
	6:15pm dale: p-9: it was like 50 a month and we didn't use it. and the copper was probably 60 years old to our house, really crappy service.
	🤖 6:15pm Handy Haversack: Erin in TO!
	6:15pm yippie: For most people I know, they would need to break up with their phone first, just to be able to read any book.
	🤖 6:15pm Bas NL: Greg's design would make a great poster as well!
	🤖 6:16pm Webhamster Henry: Hi Techtonic friendsters!

	6:19pm D Rok: Can Matt be on Techtonic all the time?

	6:19pm melinda: air pods are creepy
	6:20pm P-90: “Implants”?! You mean for males too?
	6:20pm queems: just tie a can to your radio with a string
	6:20pm dale: I've miles And miles Of files Pretty files of your forefather's fruit And now to suit our Great computer, You're magnetic ink. the moody blues.

	6:21pm JJ NY-SC: What's this about Bandcamp being purchased? And what show did they say that they talked about it on?
	🤖 6:22pm Handy Haversack: Can you get high from eating Air pods too?
	6:23pm P-90: I’m not sure any freak that comes along should be able to put as much as he wants of whatever he wants into orbital space.
	6:24pm ultradamno: @JJ Mark's piece about the Bandcamp sitch creativegood.com...
	6:25pm JJ NY-SC: Thank you, ultradamno.

	🤖 6:27pm Bas NL: Cool! 50%!
	🤖 6:27pm Will the Sound Guy: 💥🚀🌠🌟
	🤖 6:28pm PaulRobeson1920: Hi Hi Hi All!
	6:28pm DanFA: Matt is the devil on the shoulder to Mark's angel on the shoulder.
	6:28pm P-90: RIP MoviePass
	6:29pm ultradamno: Great movie
	🤖 6:29pm tim from washington: @ultradamno -It does. A supervisor of mine brought a bunch to a staff meeting one time a few years ago. The whole department agreed that Cracker Jack's quality control went seriously south.
	🤖 6:29pm tim from washington: Matt is the Andy Breckman of apps.
	6:29pm dale: the one where he was a photographer and staged bloody accidents to photograph and sell them?
	6:30pm Danny in Poughkeepsie: This is your life Matt Warwick
	6:30pm yippie: Is there anything bad about Shazam?

	6:31pm melinda: those are nuts
	6:31pm P-90: Matt’s slippers are “puffed out” and “pimped out”
	🤖 6:31pm Handy Haversack: Does Matt wear them around JC, or are they in-station only? Mark's a real tabletop gamer. He knows what's up.
	6:32pm K: love those. Can Matt sing the Fuzzy Glove Hour theme song please?
	6:33pm Marie: I am loving this. BTW, I think I might have coined "daddy Garbage." Seriously. I'll have to do some research in the playlists
	🤖 6:33pm tim from washington: Mark is proving that Matt is a walking after school special.
	🤖 6:33pm Handy Haversack: Matt's on schemecorns!
	6:33pm queems: I LIKE THE ENERGY
	6:34pm P-90: Daddy Garbage is ALL ABOUT the lottery element
	6:34pm wizard frog: hahaha, the contrast between these two guys is amazing
	6:34pm DanFA: Let Matt have his slippers!
	🤖 6:34pm Bas NL: Don't stop now, Mark!
	6:34pm Tom from Stirling: Hope people are pledging. Is Matt helping the cause?

	6:34pm P-90: Most oil-and-water duo since Fabio and Clay
	🤖 6:35pm Handy Haversack: Sock it to him! Or slipper it to him, as it were.
	6:35pm dale: using a credit card to BUY slippers is just as much a loss of privacy as lil' matty winning slippers online.
	6:35pm melinda: I appreciate the tough love
	🤖 6:35pm Folsom: We need a Matt/Mark/Clay combo to get Matt riled
	6:36pm Tom from Stirling: Those "slippers" look like two left feet. Or Matt is wearing them on the wrong foot.
	6:36pm Danny in Poughkeepsie: Matt you are amazing!

	🤖 6:38pm Handy Haversack: Matt's very not for a bunch of things!
	6:38pm ultradamno: Well, there was a Russian bot push on Twitter accusing Duck Duck Go of...GASP, manipulating search results to the disadvantage of pro-invasion propagands...SWITCH TO BRAVE!
	🤖 6:38pm tim from washington: "I'm not for a bunch of things" - hahahaha!
	6:38pm wizard frog: wonder if Matt and Mark hung around together long enough, Mark may end up wearing puffy sneakers and stuff from apps like Matt haha
	🤖 6:39pm chresti: How can I get free slippers?
	6:39pm DanFA: Where does Garbage Daddy Matt stand on NFTs?
	6:39pm chris in the redwoods: nice premise for a video game: navigate your way through orbital space junk on your way to outer space. it'll help future astronauts prepare.

	6:39pm Dano59: Read an article in 2600 today on how to listen in on L-channel satellite transmissions, including secret ones. Hey , what IS DuckDuckGo's dirty secret? I use it as a 'safer' alternative to Google.
	🤖 6:40pm tim from washington: @chresti - email Olivia. I got a feeling she would be more than happy to send Matt's slippers to you.
	6:40pm dale: i'll bet bruce could chew those up in about 3 minutes. and no one would stop him, matt included.
	6:40pm Yes: lol
	6:41pm P-90: Jack’s good for the 10 bucks
	🤖 6:41pm Folsom: We need a pic of Mark wearing the slippers
	6:42pm DanFA: Mark is gonna snap.
	6:42pm Scott in Chicago: No, not smash the slippers, smash the apple ear pods right now with a hammer.
	6:42pm McGroovey: All these apps: I don't see the use for most of them. Twitter? Who cares. Instawhatever? Why? Twitch? No idea what it is.
	6:42pm Dano59: do the slippers fit over Todd's socks? I hope Bruce is not getting upset at Daddy G getting upset
	6:43pm ultradamno: I did recently come across and Alf NFT, solidifying my position they are digital pogs
	6:43pm Yes: this is gold
	6:43pm P-90: What? A guy can’t dabble a little in NFTs?
	6:43pm Tom from Stirling: This is one of the best hours on FMU! It really is!!
	6:44pm Dano59: does not sound kosher!!
	6:44pm Danny in Poughkeepsie: thank you guys!!!!
	6:44pm melinda: yea Daniel
	6:44pm mr 6: My favorite tech tip to share is for Matt With no earbuds or pods in my ears and a person starts talking to e bay I want not to speak with I simply touch my ear and say “Sorry m on the phone”. Works every time
	6:45pm P-90: Daniel is all-around Bluminspirational.
	6:45pm Tom from Stirling: learn that poem, read that book, make that Pledge.
	6:45pm Altered Beets: Matthew Warwick... are you now, or have you ever been, a known associate of the woman known as Razzlekhan?
	🤖 6:45pm Handy Haversack: Now. We are the robots. -->
	🤖 6:46pm Handy Haversack: For those slightly more aged of us, he means Matari 2600.
	🤖 6:46pm Folsom: The Burgertime game song is pretty good.

	6:49pm chris in the redwoods: i hope this is a game about drinking beer
	6:49pm DanFA: @Tom from Stirling- yes, eradicate Big Tech

	6:50pm Yes: this has been incredible. thank you
	🤖 6:50pm Bas NL: The Fuzzy Tech Hour.
	6:51pm Dano59: I'm the wind, baby. - Tom Servo
	🤖 6:51pm Wendy del Formaggio: It's not "I'm a loner, baby." It's, "I'm a loner, Dottie. A rebel." Don't mis-quote Pee Wee!
	6:51pm P-90: Matt makes Mark a lot more goofy, Mark doesn’t change Matt at all
	6:51pm ultradamno: I remember a flash game based on The Residents' Duck Stab where ducks flew at you and you had to stab them all while a loop of Constantinople played...so fun.
	6:51pm dale: LOT'S of things called big apple this or big apple that...
	🤖 6:51pm Handy Haversack: Gotta feed the monsters. Excellent convo, Mark and Matt! When Matt ends up accidentally selling himself on the Dark Web since he didn't read the terms and conditions, the Techtonic Freedom Force will come to the rescue. And the music for that video game will be the greatest ever! Wendy: You don't wanna get mixed up with a guy like me!
	🤖 6:52pm Folsom: Matt needs the tie dyed slippers
	6:52pm ultradamno: Superbad is still out there though www.superbad.com
	6:52pm P-90: @ultra: is that a joke or a thing? Did the Residents make it themselves?
	6:52pm Dano59: if you want Matt's passwords and SSN, just type in 'slippers' on the Dark Web
	6:53pm ultradamno: Oh, it existed. I doubt they had anything to do with it.
	🤖 6:53pm Wendy del Formaggio: Handy: "There's a lotta things about me you don't know anything about, Dottie. Things you wouldn't understand. Things you couldn't understand. Things you shouldn't understand."

	🤖 6:54pm Handy Haversack: Wendy, I hope you at least understand what an act of will has been required for 20+ years now to keep me from shouting, "Do you have something to share with the rest of us, AMAZING LARRY?!" at literally every work meeting ever.
	🤖 6:55pm tim from washington: Please pledge to Mark if you haven't already! Techtonic is a truly unique show that can only be found on WFMU.

	🤖 6:57pm Folsom: It looks like there is only one size for the slippers, size 4-13
	🤖 6:57pm Bas NL: Ave Handy!
	6:57pm Daybreak: Or you may fall in an obvious hole in a stage like Justin Biber. If we are lucky!
	🤖 6:57pm Handy Haversack: K8: "He's not going to get to mine! Because yours was two minutes long!" That was K8!
	🤖 6:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: In other words, it's very, very, very ... umm ... good.
	🤖 6:58pm Wendy del Formaggio: K8!!! <3
	6:58pm Dano59: also Team Mark - (I didn't comment)

	🤖 6:59pm Bas NL: Great Marathon show Mark & Matt!
	7:00pm P-90: Horseheads NY, big Sicilian-American enclave there
	7:00pm _Ike_: I'm right in between Matt and Mark insofar as I like a "gambling" aspect to one game on my phone, where you can "roll" for different fighting cats by opening "cat capsules", but the game is completely free unless you're dumb enough to buy "cat food" in one of the ridiculous sales, which are nonsensically expensive anyway, LOL. It's very VERY silly, but at least it costs no money (unless you're dumb).
	7:00pm dale: good wendy's in horseheads.
	🤖 7:00pm tim from washington: Thanks, Mark and Matt! Chuck the e-waste off the Brooklyn Bridge!
	7:01pm captain beef fart: My name is captain beef fart and I'm subscribed to apple and amazon
