Our other signals and our web streams are A-OK. Thanks for hanging in there with us while we wait for everything to go back to “normal.”"
	♥ 12:23pm Handy Haversack: Trouble, did you see this article that was linked to in the station newsletter today? www.scientificamerican.com...
	♥ 12:24pm Webhamster Henry: This is the time warped world!
	12:24pm Hudson Valley: Yeah, saw the website - it’s still static up here - can’t wait to hear it on the radio again as I’m never streaming
	12:24pm ExcellentMandible: @Hudson Valley I am with you. Im like 70/30 Internet/90.1fm. Need my WFMU.
	♥ 12:26pm austin: trouble on a tuesday, how great!
	♥ 12:26pm Webhamster Henry: I'm in a terrestrial WFMU desert - good luck to all FM-ers!
	♥ 12:26pm Webhamster Henry: Also: Faith Ringgold!
	12:26pm Pax: I'm receiving 91.1 perfectly clear West of Hudson valley
	♥ 12:27pm Edison Mausoleum: Always 100% streaming since you guys won't put a station in the midwest ;)
	♥ 12:27pm maestroso: 90.1 is barely audible right now. So streaming is the way.
	12:28pm Robm: @HV streaming is your friend
	12:28pm Marie: So nice to hear you, Trouble!
	12:29pm johnk77: 91.1 broadcast nice south south bronx typical amount of stereo noise
	12:29pm ExcellentMandible: This song was sampled in Choosin Fees by Roc Marciano. Both tracks are choice.

	♥ 12:31pm Bones: Trouble!!! Yessss
	♥ 12:31pm Webhamster Henry: You need afternoon birdcalls!
	♥ 12:31pm Handy Haversack: I am having a lot of reception difficulties in the front room. I dunno, it's awfully sensitive in there. Bathroom boombox is getting 91.1 just fine. I moved outside and brought the stream with me.
	12:31pm MG: So happy for some Trouble today!
	12:31pm Dean from Old Bridge: Both my phone and car radio were playing that “Blink” track in staggered rhythm, magic happening
	12:32pm Hubig Pie: Morning is appropriate for my time zone
	♥ 12:32pm Webhamster Henry: @Edison Mausoleum: I can tell you that for a while, WFMU was experimenting with a donated frequency in the Chicago area... but it was too much for this little rowboat of a station.
	12:32pm Listener Bop Monroe: greetings and luv DJT from birdy Tannersville NY; still adjusting to thursdays w/out you. chirpy chirpy cheep cheep!
	12:33pm Pax: And your filling that feeling cavity in just nicely.
	12:33pm slugluv1313: ooooo Feeling the Trouble -- what a cool surprise! greetings, everyone! lurking & loving the tunes/vibes on this already sweltering day -- getting ready to head on out, but i will be listening 💚🐦🧡🕊️💙
	♥ 12:34pm ldbl: happy birth day/week/month!
	♥ 12:34pm Handy Haversack: Happy birthday year, Trouble!
	12:35pm zopa: Just gonna favorite the whole show at this point. Woo Hoo!
	12:35pm rx scabin: I am grateful for the stream. It lets me live in a world I like, not the one I am living in.
	12:35pm Robm: @Slugluv howdy and nice to see your when the sun is out:)
	♥ 12:36pm Richy4619: I just installed that Faith Ringgold flag painting (and a bunch of others) in a museum in SF last week. Show opens next week.
	12:37pm Robm: @rx scabin if some republicans get their way, they will try ro shut this station down and prevent us from listening to international broadcasting
	12:38pm bradford: well put rx scabin, that's my exact situation unfortunately...
	♥ 12:39pm Passaic River Blues: @Richy4619: That's awesome!
	12:41pm slugluv1313: Joe Bataan AND Dawn Penn 🇵🇷🔥🇵🇭😻🇯🇲
	12:42pm slugluv1313: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TROUBLE!!! 💜💜💜
	12:43pm rx scabin: Many happy returns of the day, Trouble.
	12:43pm slugluv1313: hiya Robm! thanks! always listening, just not always able to hang out
	♥ 12:44pm adampsyche: happy day, fellow cancer!
	12:45pm slugluv1313: @rx scabin at 12:35 -- same here!
	12:45pm Robm: @slugluv i know your a busy lady
	12:48pm Robm: @Slugluv1313 i just have this scary thing that if a republican wins in 2024 he will try and find a way to keep us from listening to international broadcasting like the bbc and stations like this from being on the air
	12:50pm ZACH ALL CAPS: Is there a way to download entire shows for offline listening? (I have a 100-mile ultramarathon coming up and I’ll be out of cell service most of the time.)
	12:51pm rx scabin: Sault. Thank you, Trouble for making me a Sault-obsessive. My friends are getting sick of me saying, "let me tell you about Sault."
	12:51pm ZACH ALL CAPS: I know that Sinner’s Crossroads gets released as a weekly podcast, which is great!!
	12:51pm olivia: @ZACH ALL CAPS- it’s definitely possible to download shows for offline listening on the WFMU app (at least on the iPhone version)
	12:52pm rx scabin: @ZACH ALL CAPS Wake and Bake has a podcast.
	12:53pm ZACH ALL CAPS: Thanks, Olivia. I’ll toy around with the app now — that’s how I always listen. I was hoping to download like 12+ hours of shows …
	♥ 12:53pm Bernardo: Trouble!!! My spirit is filled with birdsong
	12:53pm olivia: If you click on an old episode, a little screen shows up that says Download or Play, and you can download it from there
	12:54pm YETI BOB: ZACH: You can do it from the website. Just go to the archive page www.wfmu.org... and right-click on the 'MP3" link, you can save it
	♥ 12:54pm Handy Haversack: ZACH: I believe it is possible with recent shows, like no more than two weeks old? I might be operating with old info, but I think if you click the 128K-MP3 link for an archived show, you can DL the pls file for that show.
	12:54pm YETI BOB: no iphone required
	♥ 12:54pm Handy Haversack: Er, as YB said.
	12:54pm ZACH ALL CAPS: Holy S**t!! Massive game changer for us mountain living folks out here in Colorado!! Wow. Thanks so much…
	12:55pm YETI BOB: HH: the PLS file won't help. it is just a hyperlink, it won't play if you're not online. you need to get the actual MP3 files
	12:55pm ZACH ALL CAPS: Thanks all!! Now I can listen to FMU in the backcountry!!
	12:55pm olivia: Yeah!! It’s amazing. I used to do that for subway commutes, back when I did that and service would get spotty
	♥ 12:56pm Passaic River Blues: Real molam banger here.
	♥ 12:56pm tim from washington: I love these Molam grooves. The rhythms are quite similar to early Jamaican ska which is irrepressible!
	12:56pm ZACH ALL CAPS: YB that was as far as I got the last time and assumed it wasn’t possible for legal copyright issues
	12:57pm YETI BOB: If you look at the `listen.m3u` file it contains something like mp3archives.wfmu.org... If you download that file, you can play it offline
	♥ 1:00pm tim from washington: Tony Dorsett!
	1:03pm slugluv1313: @Robm -- right? hello censorship! news is already severely limited (unlike when i was a kid -- you got to see the horrors of the Vietnam War, etc., everyday on the 6 o'clock news) but hell even if a Democrat gets elected -- there are "good Christians" like Lauren Boebert running around, claiming that "the Church" should be running "the State" 🤬🤬🤬 (& yes, i am extremely politically cynical -- my 8th grade class trip to Washington DC was at the height of the Watergate trial)
	♥ 1:03pm adampsyche: reggae set coming up please!
	1:06pm rx scabin: Jammers.
	1:06pm go.forth.&.thrash___: I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream?
	1:07pm Robm: @Slugluv been cynical for years so I love where your coming from so yeah @rx talking about listening on the internet
	♥ 1:07pm Bimbus Bambus: I'm on the EM Records Bandcamp page right now, and wow is there a lot of amazing stuff here!
	♥ 1:11pm Handy Haversack: YB, I had to jump through some file hoops that I don't remember: DLing the "listen" file, opening in Notepad to get the text of the URL and then sending that to myself in an e-mail in order to get a clickable, save-as link that let me DL (and then tell FF that it's safe to do so!).
	♥ 1:11pm Passaic River Blues: These are all excellent recommendations!
	1:13pm ExcellentMandible: iphone app lets you download individual shows for offline listening. I find that very helpful.
	♥ 1:13pm Michael 98145: It's always between nine and noon somewhere.
	♥ 1:14pm Trouble: book recommendations: the islander by chris blackwell disorientation by elaine hsieh chen activities of daily living, a novel by lisa hsiao chen
	1:18pm YETI BOB: HH: I see. That would work but you can streamline the process a bit, if you have the utility "wget". Download the m3u, and then use wget to pull down the mp3. No emails neeeded.
	1:18pm YETI BOB: Looks like you can also do a "save" in VLC. Well, there's always more than one way to do it.
	♥ 1:18pm Michael 98145: fascists on the march
	1:19pm Editor B: Been thinking about this song a lot lately
	1:20pm Layet Johnson: Thanks for playing this, Trouble!
	♥ 1:20pm Passaic River Blues: I had forgotten how beautiful and prescient this record is. Blew my mind in middle school and now is a sonic guidepost for our terrible present.
	1:20pm alan the painter: Trouble, wOw you're on! Does this mean we get you twice this week!?
	1:21pm Layet Johnson: Well put, Passaic River
	♥ 1:21pm Richy4619: Butterfly/Digable/Shabazz Palaces = excellence
	♥ 1:23pm Trouble: @alan the painter: i am not on the summer schedule, this is just a fill in...
	1:30pm rx scabin: My friends, I juust happened across this: https://pluralistic.net/2022/07/05/grab-the-wheel/#fragile-hope It made me feel a bit better about the future and needed action.
	1:33pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Doin' CAD to this. Much fun.
	1:35pm jim in the d: me too Wild Neil
	1:35pm Erella: Hi Trouble, Just chirping in to say hello and that I am glad to hear you today.
	1:36pm βrian: These guys just wouldn't be the same if they had a comma.
	♥ 1:36pm Handy Haversack: 79.5 is playing next week at TV Eye.
	1:40pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @Jim in the d-Fusion 360 until the subscription runs out in August. Designing a conceptual cleanroom layout. You? I am getting SolidWorks and AutoCad loaded today. SolidWorks is a much better program IMHO and AutoCAD is pretty useful in a lot of other ways, such as layers.
	1:42pm YETI BOB: Glad to hear they still make AutoCAD. That one has been around forever!
	1:47pm jim in the d: @Neil using Autocad for EE and structural detailing today. Haven't used Solidworks, will have to check it out. Working on charging stations for electric vehicles.
	1:49pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @Yeti Bob-yes it has. At LEAST twenty years. Wait a minute-when I was a boy scout in 1978 or so we took a field trip to a ground based satellite station in Vernon, NJ. They used AutoCAD and showed a circle that was actually a polygon to save memory space. So its been at least 44 years I guess. We use AutoCAD 3D which is a bit weird, but some use it.
	♥ 1:54pm tim from washington: OK quick vote, who is most likely to be Style Council? Me and Handy, Joe Belock and Todd-O-Phonic, Sheila B and Joe McGaasko or Faye and Gaylord?
	1:56pm rx scabin: @tim from washington write-in: Trouble and ken and clay.
	♥ 1:56pm Handy Haversack: I know the real answer, so I shouldn't vote.
	♥ 1:57pm tim from washington: @rx scabin - excellent!
	1:57pm Listener Bop Monroe: tfw: mike shelly
	1:59pm Listener Bop Monroe: ...and/or mona.
	♥ 1:59pm tim from washington: Listener Bop - Astute observation.
	2:00pm Listener Bop Monroe: we all win
	♥ 2:02pm Michael 98145: horse-drawn record cart !
	2:02pm alan the painter: Good 4 U, eye donut use the spotty peeps! ever
	♥ 2:03pm tadpoles: Wow Trouble...Tindersticks covering TVP....very neat! Listening in the distance and I didn't recognize it!
	♥ 2:04pm Michael 98145: what kinda birdies ?
	♥ 2:07pm Trouble: another book recommendation: how beautiful we were by imbolu mbue
	♥ 2:08pm tim from washington: I read Mbolo Mbue's first novel Behold The Dreamers. I found it a bit lacking all around. It was a Community Reads book for the local library. Ms Mbue came to the community to discuss the book which was really cool. I'll give her new book a shot per Trouble's recommendation.
	2:09pm (Mr) Bill: Trouble: Thank you for stirring up some good trouble. It’s helping me cope and act this afternoon.
	♥ 2:09pm Handy Haversack: I finally got some sustained reading time in yesterday afternoon.
	♥ 2:12pm Trouble: i have only read this on@tim from wash, so i can't say anything about her first. but this one had lots of layers, ideas, and i flew through it
	♥ 2:15pm tim from washington: @Trouble - Thanks! That's good to hear. Her first book was a bit heavy handed, and read like a melodrama without much subtlety.
	♥ 2:17pm Trouble: yeah, @tim, at times it did feel a wee heavy but mostly not.
	♥ 2:17pm Michael 98145: "How Beautiful We Were is a masterful exploration of what happens when the reckless drive for profit, coupled with the ghost of colonialism, comes up against one community's determination to hold on to its ancestral land.. "
	♥ 2:18pm Michael 98145: what great sets you are gifting us today. thanks.
	2:20pm Barclay: This has been a fantastic show today. Listening in Toronto. The Lady B was amazing. And every day is a good day to hear Dawn Penn. Saw Horace Andy live a couple of weeks ago, incredible.
	♥ 2:20pm Trouble: very cool@ barclay to hear he is performing and sounding great!
	♥ 2:21pm tim from washington: I could listen to dub basslines all week.
	2:22pm Analog Nights: Great song. Love the Paul Butterfield version.
	2:24pm Dan from Delco: Greetings from the beach down in Wildwood Crest, NJ. Quite windy down here.
	2:24pm gorpy: that last song was kinda new Orleansy, who was it?
	2:29pm slugluv1313: Hollie Cook 💜💜💜 Burning Spear 💚💚💚 loving these Dub-y selections, Trouble 😻😻😻
	♥ 2:29pm Handy Haversack: The dog and I have to run a couple of errands. Great to hear you today, Trouble! Have a great birthday and birdday and all! Stay Troubled, all.
	♥ 2:30pm Passaic River Blues: Great cover here!
	♥ 2:31pm Polly.: Trouble - how nice to hear you! thanks for an enjoyable show, as always.
	2:32pm slugluv1313: never heard this version of Woman of the Ghetto -- LOVE!!! (& hate that these lyrics are still relevant)
	♥ 2:36pm tim from washington: I'm going to go follow Handy and his dog around so thanks for the fantastic show this morning, Trouble. Thanks for the great music, recommendations and conversation.
	♥ 2:36pm steveo: Hey there, Afternoon Trouble! Sounding great, as usual
	♥ 2:38pm Michael 98145: good health @Handy & @K8
	♥ 2:39pm Michael 98145: enjoy the sun @tim
	2:43pm Jeff Moore: Thanks for the surprise later-in-the-day treat, Trouble!
	2:44pm U.K. Steve: Just got it….what an absolutely unexpected treat!!! Yay for Trouble 😊
	♥ 2:47pm Michael 98145: Nice treat. Thanx.
	2:47pm Marie: Loving the show. It's soothing this savage beast. Thanks for the book recos. I'm reading a book that I've found very compelling: "The King Must Die" by Mary Renault. It's a historical novel set in Ancient Greece, a first-person narrative about the mythological king, Theseus. You are with him as he has these amazing adventures. Very well written.
	♥ 2:48pm 12539: Thanks for being here today, Trouble.
	♥ 2:49pm Michael 98145: let us all hope our flag stops bleeding
	2:49pm (Mr) Bill: This whitey is listening intently. It’s winter in July.
	♥ 2:52pm Richy4619: great show, Trouble. may you all do whatever to the flag as you see fit.
	2:52pm rowan: amazing song
	2:53pm rx scabin: @Trouble you are killing it. This, among other things, is why I am a devoted listener and WFMU evangelist.
	2:53pm slugluv1313: GSH 🔥💚 THANK YOU TROUBLE -- you are soooo helping to ease all this pain, & helping to motivate ACTION 💜💜💜
	2:53pm rowan: been missing this show….turning my frown upside down
	♥ 2:53pm _Ike_: Cool.
	♥ 2:53pm Dave in Vermont: Amen, rx
	2:53pm MarciB: Thank you @Trouble for another remarkable show. While I'm bummed I can't listen to you on the summer schedule, these fill-ins are a treat and a balm until you return!
	♥ 2:54pm tadpoles: Thanks for the show Trouble. GSH's voice is very Lou Rawlsish! Cheers
	♥ 2:54pm D Rok: Always a pleasure to have you in my ears, Trouble. Until next time!
	2:54pm slugluv1313: & yup, whitey still on the Moon
	2:55pm bradford: Many thanks Trouble! Hoping for more of your fill ins this summer...
	2:56pm Andres: Beautiful and powerful selections today. Thank you, Trouble.
	♥ 2:56pm Crosby in KC: Thanks, Trouble! Loved the show today
	♥ 2:56pm Michael 98145: don't forget to hydrate 🌞
	2:56pm Marie: At the risk of annoying people I have 4 words to say: Vote and vote Democratic
	2:56pm slugluv1313: thank you Trouble -- your fill in today has been a true treat! & so grounding, healing, centering 😻😻😻
	2:57pm rx scabin: Thank you, Trouble for the peace. Dinner is prepped, and I am drinking a Martini. So far, so good.
	2:58pm love2laf: Thank you for the perfect music to get through my work day Trouble, it makes such a difference to the flow of the day
	2:59pm Marie: Thanks, Trouble!

	5:45pm popsicornia in vancouveronia: @Marie No annoyance here!

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Our other signals and our web streams are A-OK. Thanks for hanging in there with us while we wait for everything to go back to “normal.”"
	♥ 12:23pm Handy Haversack: Trouble, did you see this article that was linked to in the station newsletter today? www.scientificamerican.com...
	♥ 12:24pm Webhamster Henry: This is the time warped world!
	12:24pm Hudson Valley: Yeah, saw the website - it’s still static up here - can’t wait to hear it on the radio again as I’m never streaming

	♥ 12:27pm Edison Mausoleum: Always 100% streaming since you guys won't put a station in the midwest ;)
	♥ 12:27pm maestroso: 90.1 is barely audible right now. So streaming is the way.
	12:28pm Robm: @HV streaming is your friend
	12:28pm Marie: So nice to hear you, Trouble!
	12:29pm johnk77: 91.1 broadcast nice south south bronx typical amount of stereo noise

	♥ 12:31pm Bones: Trouble!!! Yessss
	♥ 12:31pm Webhamster Henry: You need afternoon birdcalls!
	♥ 12:31pm Handy Haversack: I am having a lot of reception difficulties in the front room. I dunno, it's awfully sensitive in there. Bathroom boombox is getting 91.1 just fine. I moved outside and brought the stream with me.
	12:31pm MG: So happy for some Trouble today!
	12:31pm Dean from Old Bridge: Both my phone and car radio were playing that “Blink” track in staggered rhythm, magic happening
	12:32pm Hubig Pie: Morning is appropriate for my time zone
	♥ 12:32pm Webhamster Henry: @Edison Mausoleum: I can tell you that for a while, WFMU was experimenting with a donated frequency in the Chicago area... but it was too much for this little rowboat of a station.
	12:32pm Listener Bop Monroe: greetings and luv DJT from birdy Tannersville NY; still adjusting to thursdays w/out you. chirpy chirpy cheep cheep!
	12:33pm Pax: And your filling that feeling cavity in just nicely.
	12:33pm slugluv1313: ooooo Feeling the Trouble -- what a cool surprise! greetings, everyone! lurking & loving the tunes/vibes on this already sweltering day -- getting ready to head on out, but i will be listening 💚🐦🧡🕊️💙

	♥ 12:34pm Handy Haversack: Happy birthday year, Trouble!
	12:35pm zopa: Just gonna favorite the whole show at this point. Woo Hoo!
	12:35pm rx scabin: I am grateful for the stream. It lets me live in a world I like, not the one I am living in.
	12:35pm Robm: @Slugluv howdy and nice to see your when the sun is out:)
	♥ 12:36pm Richy4619: I just installed that Faith Ringgold flag painting (and a bunch of others) in a museum in SF last week. Show opens next week.
	12:37pm Robm: @rx scabin if some republicans get their way, they will try ro shut this station down and prevent us from listening to international broadcasting
	12:38pm bradford: well put rx scabin, that's my exact situation unfortunately...
	♥ 12:39pm Passaic River Blues: @Richy4619: That's awesome!
	12:41pm slugluv1313: Joe Bataan AND Dawn Penn 🇵🇷🔥🇵🇭😻🇯🇲
	12:42pm slugluv1313: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TROUBLE!!! 💜💜💜
	12:43pm rx scabin: Many happy returns of the day, Trouble.
	12:43pm slugluv1313: hiya Robm! thanks! always listening, just not always able to hang out
	♥ 12:44pm adampsyche: happy day, fellow cancer!
	12:45pm slugluv1313: @rx scabin at 12:35 -- same here!
	12:45pm Robm: @slugluv i know your a busy lady
	12:48pm Robm: @Slugluv1313 i just have this scary thing that if a republican wins in 2024 he will try and find a way to keep us from listening to international broadcasting like the bbc and stations like this from being on the air
	12:50pm ZACH ALL CAPS: Is there a way to download entire shows for offline listening? (I have a 100-mile ultramarathon coming up and I’ll be out of cell service most of the time.)
	12:51pm rx scabin: Sault. Thank you, Trouble for making me a Sault-obsessive. My friends are getting sick of me saying, "let me tell you about Sault."
	12:51pm ZACH ALL CAPS: I know that Sinner’s Crossroads gets released as a weekly podcast, which is great!!
	12:51pm olivia: @ZACH ALL CAPS- it’s definitely possible to download shows for offline listening on the WFMU app (at least on the iPhone version)
	12:52pm rx scabin: @ZACH ALL CAPS Wake and Bake has a podcast.
	12:53pm ZACH ALL CAPS: Thanks, Olivia. I’ll toy around with the app now — that’s how I always listen. I was hoping to download like 12+ hours of shows …
	♥ 12:53pm Bernardo: Trouble!!! My spirit is filled with birdsong
	12:53pm olivia: If you click on an old episode, a little screen shows up that says Download or Play, and you can download it from there
	12:54pm YETI BOB: ZACH: You can do it from the website. Just go to the archive page www.wfmu.org... and right-click on the 'MP3" link, you can save it
	♥ 12:54pm Handy Haversack: ZACH: I believe it is possible with recent shows, like no more than two weeks old? I might be operating with old info, but I think if you click the 128K-MP3 link for an archived show, you can DL the pls file for that show.
	12:54pm YETI BOB: no iphone required
	♥ 12:54pm Handy Haversack: Er, as YB said.
	12:54pm ZACH ALL CAPS: Holy S**t!! Massive game changer for us mountain living folks out here in Colorado!! Wow. Thanks so much…
	12:55pm YETI BOB: HH: the PLS file won't help. it is just a hyperlink, it won't play if you're not online. you need to get the actual MP3 files
	12:55pm ZACH ALL CAPS: Thanks all!! Now I can listen to FMU in the backcountry!!
	12:55pm olivia: Yeah!! It’s amazing. I used to do that for subway commutes, back when I did that and service would get spotty
	♥ 12:56pm Passaic River Blues: Real molam banger here.
	♥ 12:56pm tim from washington: I love these Molam grooves. The rhythms are quite similar to early Jamaican ska which is irrepressible!
	12:56pm ZACH ALL CAPS: YB that was as far as I got the last time and assumed it wasn’t possible for legal copyright issues
	12:57pm YETI BOB: If you look at the `listen.m3u` file it contains something like mp3archives.wfmu.org... If you download that file, you can play it offline
	♥ 1:00pm tim from washington: Tony Dorsett!
	1:03pm slugluv1313: @Robm -- right? hello censorship! news is already severely limited (unlike when i was a kid -- you got to see the horrors of the Vietnam War, etc., everyday on the 6 o'clock news) but hell even if a Democrat gets elected -- there are "good Christians" like Lauren Boebert running around, claiming that "the Church" should be running "the State" 🤬🤬🤬 (& yes, i am extremely politically cynical -- my 8th grade class trip to Washington DC was at the height of the Watergate trial)
	♥ 1:03pm adampsyche: reggae set coming up please!
	1:06pm rx scabin: Jammers.
	1:06pm go.forth.&.thrash___: I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream?
	1:07pm Robm: @Slugluv been cynical for years so I love where your coming from so yeah @rx talking about listening on the internet
	♥ 1:07pm Bimbus Bambus: I'm on the EM Records Bandcamp page right now, and wow is there a lot of amazing stuff here!
	♥ 1:11pm Handy Haversack: YB, I had to jump through some file hoops that I don't remember: DLing the "listen" file, opening in Notepad to get the text of the URL and then sending that to myself in an e-mail in order to get a clickable, save-as link that let me DL (and then tell FF that it's safe to do so!).
	♥ 1:11pm Passaic River Blues: These are all excellent recommendations!
	1:13pm ExcellentMandible: iphone app lets you download individual shows for offline listening. I find that very helpful.
	♥ 1:13pm Michael 98145: It's always between nine and noon somewhere.
	♥ 1:14pm Trouble: book recommendations: the islander by chris blackwell disorientation by elaine hsieh chen activities of daily living, a novel by lisa hsiao chen
	1:18pm YETI BOB: HH: I see. That would work but you can streamline the process a bit, if you have the utility "wget". Download the m3u, and then use wget to pull down the mp3. No emails neeeded.
	1:18pm YETI BOB: Looks like you can also do a "save" in VLC. Well, there's always more than one way to do it.
	♥ 1:18pm Michael 98145: fascists on the march
	1:19pm Editor B: Been thinking about this song a lot lately
	1:20pm Layet Johnson: Thanks for playing this, Trouble!
	♥ 1:20pm Passaic River Blues: I had forgotten how beautiful and prescient this record is. Blew my mind in middle school and now is a sonic guidepost for our terrible present.
	1:20pm alan the painter: Trouble, wOw you're on! Does this mean we get you twice this week!?
	1:21pm Layet Johnson: Well put, Passaic River
	♥ 1:21pm Richy4619: Butterfly/Digable/Shabazz Palaces = excellence
	♥ 1:23pm Trouble: @alan the painter: i am not on the summer schedule, this is just a fill in...
	1:30pm rx scabin: My friends, I juust happened across this: https://pluralistic.net/2022/07/05/grab-the-wheel/#fragile-hope It made me feel a bit better about the future and needed action.
	1:33pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Doin' CAD to this. Much fun.
	1:35pm jim in the d: me too Wild Neil
	1:35pm Erella: Hi Trouble, Just chirping in to say hello and that I am glad to hear you today.
	1:36pm βrian: These guys just wouldn't be the same if they had a comma.
	♥ 1:36pm Handy Haversack: 79.5 is playing next week at TV Eye.
	1:40pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @Jim in the d-Fusion 360 until the subscription runs out in August. Designing a conceptual cleanroom layout. You? I am getting SolidWorks and AutoCad loaded today. SolidWorks is a much better program IMHO and AutoCAD is pretty useful in a lot of other ways, such as layers.
	1:42pm YETI BOB: Glad to hear they still make AutoCAD. That one has been around forever!
	1:47pm jim in the d: @Neil using Autocad for EE and structural detailing today. Haven't used Solidworks, will have to check it out. Working on charging stations for electric vehicles.
	1:49pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @Yeti Bob-yes it has. At LEAST twenty years. Wait a minute-when I was a boy scout in 1978 or so we took a field trip to a ground based satellite station in Vernon, NJ. They used AutoCAD and showed a circle that was actually a polygon to save memory space. So its been at least 44 years I guess. We use AutoCAD 3D which is a bit weird, but some use it.
	♥ 1:54pm tim from washington: OK quick vote, who is most likely to be Style Council? Me and Handy, Joe Belock and Todd-O-Phonic, Sheila B and Joe McGaasko or Faye and Gaylord?
	1:56pm rx scabin: @tim from washington write-in: Trouble and ken and clay.
	♥ 1:56pm Handy Haversack: I know the real answer, so I shouldn't vote.
	♥ 1:57pm tim from washington: @rx scabin - excellent!
	1:57pm Listener Bop Monroe: tfw: mike shelly
	1:59pm Listener Bop Monroe: ...and/or mona.
	♥ 1:59pm tim from washington: Listener Bop - Astute observation.
	2:00pm Listener Bop Monroe: we all win
	♥ 2:02pm Michael 98145: horse-drawn record cart !
	2:02pm alan the painter: Good 4 U, eye donut use the spotty peeps! ever
	♥ 2:03pm tadpoles: Wow Trouble...Tindersticks covering TVP....very neat! Listening in the distance and I didn't recognize it!
	♥ 2:04pm Michael 98145: what kinda birdies ?
	♥ 2:07pm Trouble: another book recommendation: how beautiful we were by imbolu mbue
	♥ 2:08pm tim from washington: I read Mbolo Mbue's first novel Behold The Dreamers. I found it a bit lacking all around. It was a Community Reads book for the local library. Ms Mbue came to the community to discuss the book which was really cool. I'll give her new book a shot per Trouble's recommendation.
	2:09pm (Mr) Bill: Trouble: Thank you for stirring up some good trouble. It’s helping me cope and act this afternoon.
	♥ 2:09pm Handy Haversack: I finally got some sustained reading time in yesterday afternoon.
	♥ 2:12pm Trouble: i have only read this on@tim from wash, so i can't say anything about her first. but this one had lots of layers, ideas, and i flew through it
	♥ 2:15pm tim from washington: @Trouble - Thanks! That's good to hear. Her first book was a bit heavy handed, and read like a melodrama without much subtlety.
	♥ 2:17pm Trouble: yeah, @tim, at times it did feel a wee heavy but mostly not.
	♥ 2:17pm Michael 98145: "How Beautiful We Were is a masterful exploration of what happens when the reckless drive for profit, coupled with the ghost of colonialism, comes up against one community's determination to hold on to its ancestral land.. "
	♥ 2:18pm Michael 98145: what great sets you are gifting us today. thanks.
	2:20pm Barclay: This has been a fantastic show today. Listening in Toronto. The Lady B was amazing. And every day is a good day to hear Dawn Penn. Saw Horace Andy live a couple of weeks ago, incredible.
	♥ 2:20pm Trouble: very cool@ barclay to hear he is performing and sounding great!
	♥ 2:21pm tim from washington: I could listen to dub basslines all week.
	2:22pm Analog Nights: Great song. Love the Paul Butterfield version.
	2:24pm Dan from Delco: Greetings from the beach down in Wildwood Crest, NJ. Quite windy down here.
	2:24pm gorpy: that last song was kinda new Orleansy, who was it?
	2:29pm slugluv1313: Hollie Cook 💜💜💜 Burning Spear 💚💚💚 loving these Dub-y selections, Trouble 😻😻😻
	♥ 2:29pm Handy Haversack: The dog and I have to run a couple of errands. Great to hear you today, Trouble! Have a great birthday and birdday and all! Stay Troubled, all.
	♥ 2:30pm Passaic River Blues: Great cover here!
	♥ 2:31pm Polly.: Trouble - how nice to hear you! thanks for an enjoyable show, as always.
	2:32pm slugluv1313: never heard this version of Woman of the Ghetto -- LOVE!!! (& hate that these lyrics are still relevant)
	♥ 2:36pm tim from washington: I'm going to go follow Handy and his dog around so thanks for the fantastic show this morning, Trouble. Thanks for the great music, recommendations and conversation.
	♥ 2:36pm steveo: Hey there, Afternoon Trouble! Sounding great, as usual
	♥ 2:38pm Michael 98145: good health @Handy & @K8
	♥ 2:39pm Michael 98145: enjoy the sun @tim
	2:43pm Jeff Moore: Thanks for the surprise later-in-the-day treat, Trouble!
	2:44pm U.K. Steve: Just got it….what an absolutely unexpected treat!!! Yay for Trouble 😊
	♥ 2:47pm Michael 98145: Nice treat. Thanx.
	2:47pm Marie: Loving the show. It's soothing this savage beast. Thanks for the book recos. I'm reading a book that I've found very compelling: "The King Must Die" by Mary Renault. It's a historical novel set in Ancient Greece, a first-person narrative about the mythological king, Theseus. You are with him as he has these amazing adventures. Very well written.
	♥ 2:48pm 12539: Thanks for being here today, Trouble.
	♥ 2:49pm Michael 98145: let us all hope our flag stops bleeding
	2:49pm (Mr) Bill: This whitey is listening intently. It’s winter in July.
	♥ 2:52pm Richy4619: great show, Trouble. may you all do whatever to the flag as you see fit.
	2:52pm rowan: amazing song
	2:53pm rx scabin: @Trouble you are killing it. This, among other things, is why I am a devoted listener and WFMU evangelist.
	2:53pm slugluv1313: GSH 🔥💚 THANK YOU TROUBLE -- you are soooo helping to ease all this pain, & helping to motivate ACTION 💜💜💜
	2:53pm rowan: been missing this show….turning my frown upside down
	♥ 2:53pm _Ike_: Cool.
	♥ 2:53pm Dave in Vermont: Amen, rx
	2:53pm MarciB: Thank you @Trouble for another remarkable show. While I'm bummed I can't listen to you on the summer schedule, these fill-ins are a treat and a balm until you return!
	♥ 2:54pm tadpoles: Thanks for the show Trouble. GSH's voice is very Lou Rawlsish! Cheers
	♥ 2:54pm D Rok: Always a pleasure to have you in my ears, Trouble. Until next time!
	2:54pm slugluv1313: & yup, whitey still on the Moon
	2:55pm bradford: Many thanks Trouble! Hoping for more of your fill ins this summer...
	2:56pm Andres: Beautiful and powerful selections today. Thank you, Trouble.

	2:56pm slugluv1313: thank you Trouble -- your fill in today has been a true treat! & so grounding, healing, centering 😻😻😻
	2:57pm rx scabin: Thank you, Trouble for the peace. Dinner is prepped, and I am drinking a Martini. So far, so good.
