	8:07pm ultradamno: Putting something on a record that you don't want to get around is an odd tactic

	8:08pm The Butterman: Hiya Becky. Tonkinistas!
	8:11pm PuraVida: Ferlin Husky was born in Gumbo, Missouri

	8:20pm P-90: If I was from Gumbo I’d be named Ferlin too
	👻 8:21pm Destroit: Haha right P-90
	8:24pm P-90: Wait, you mean a YEAR-ROUND “24-7 Christmas music format”?!
	8:25pm PuraVida: You can take one day off to watch Bad Santa P-90
	8:25pm ultradamno: Well, that is pretty much The Hallmark Channel and they're doing well enough with it...
	8:25pm Becky: haha, no "In late November 2021, WLBR switched to a 24/7 Christmas music format, replacing WROZ in Lancaster as an official Christmas station in Central Pennsylvania and the entire Lebanon Valley. The station returned to its Classic Hits format on December 27 at midnight."
	8:25pm Becky: The news to me is that Central PA needs an "official Christmas station".
	8:26pm ultradamno: Well, if you leave it up to the amateurs...
	👻 8:26pm Destroit: Lol now glad THAT is cleared up!
	8:28pm PuraVida: Great selection so far Becky!
	8:28pm ultradamno: Is there an official Arbor Day station? One stop for all the tree songs.
	8:28pm ultradamno: (except the x-mas tree ones, that might infringe)
	8:28pm Becky: Can WFMU be named the Official Silver-Haired Fox Station of the tristate area?
	8:29pm PuraVida: You just called it Becky
	👻 8:29pm Destroit: Imagine the loon crowing at the top of the hour with that ridic fake radio voice: You are listening to THEE official Central PA chrismas station….w elllllllllll beeeee efffffff!!
	8:30pm dano59: The temporary/seasonal 24/7 Christmas station is time-honored but largely unnecessary in the Spandorify era, if the aim was to serve retailers with ready-made Muzak. Pity about WLBR today tho.
	8:31pm PuraVida: @Destroit I can't imagine what the local radio ads (still) sounded like at 'holiday' time...
	👻 8:32pm Mr. Fine Wine: An all-time fave 45!
	8:34pm dano59: Boris Karloff was the Grinch
	8:35pm ultradamno: Well, it wouldn't have made much sense for him to voice the grinch and sing a song about him from a 3rd party perspective
	8:36pm therealzagnut: I grew up listening to WLBR. My sister is Al Shade's neighbor!
	8:37pm Becky: Disregard the silly put-on accent for this analysis.
	👻 8:37pm Mr. Fine Wine: From the pampas!?
	8:37pm PeteMcCann: But it sounds so natural!
	8:37pm Becky: Disney fans will also know Thurl as the parrot with a silly put-on German accent in the Tiki Tiki Tiki Tiki Tiki Room.
	8:38pm dano59: Oh yeah that’s Thurl. He is credited on Grim Grinning Ghosts and many other Disney/novelty records.
	8:38pm ultradamno: I like that the bull seems to be doing well in this
	8:38pm PuraVida: Can't you see his hands doing the olé?
	8:38pm Becky: therealzagnut WHOA!!!! So cool!! Amazing that you were listening right now!
	👻 8:38pm Destroit: Becky bringin str8 facts tonight!
	8:38pm yippie: i have the disney haunted mansion record with thurl ravenscroft
	8:39pm Becky: This is the record in question
	8:39pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: One of the busts in the Disney World Haunted Mansion has the face and voice of Ravenscloft, and I believe he also sang the Haunted Mansion song "Grim Grinning Ghosts." Paul Frees worked on that song too. There are some other cool hidden references to him in and around the attraction.
	8:39pm dano59: I’m more surprised Desi Arnaz never did this one
	8:39pm PuraVida: Ex Disney manager here, knew the Tiki Tiki Tiki Tiki Tiki Room fact
	8:40pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: Ha, figured some of you would beat me to those facts. I don't think I knew about the Tiki Room fact because I'm more familiar with the newest version of the attraction.
	8:42pm yippie: the haunted mansion has the ghost song. i also have child's introduction to the orchestra
	8:44pm Becky: It really brought me joy that even in all revamps of the Haunted Mansion, they've left Thurl's amazing expressive ghost bust in there. So cool.
	8:44pm PuraVida: THIS is the Haunted Mansion voice which is Thurl's. I spent 4 years in Florida in management at Disney World.
	8:44pm Becky: Dotty Robbins is not a Thurl record (to my knowledge).
	8:45pm ultradamno: So, this song is the Hit The Road Jack woman doubling down (rather than answering)?
	8:46pm Becky: @ultradamno, the correct sequence is Hit The Road Jack>Come Back Jack by Nina Simone>I Changed My Mind Jack
	8:46pm yippie: and the haunted mansion book has a character that looks a lot like shrek
	8:46pm Becky: Answer to an answer. All credit to Sheila B who I first heard DJ that sequence.
	8:48pm ultradamno: Answering and answer song...how many extended conversation string records are there?
	8:48pm dano59: The Cat Came Back/Hit the Road, Cat was a local variation on the theme by the Black-Eyed Susies
	👻 8:49pm Mr. Fine Wine: Stream not working? Or just my wifi.
	8:50pm dano59: My WiFi too. Love this Stepping Stones!

	8:56pm Barefoot Jimmy G: Hey Becky! Thank you! You are killing it tonight! JMG
	8:56pm ultradamno: There's a dropout
	👻 8:57pm Barney Grubbs: @Becky: it’s also shared by Bob Marley, Ronald Reagan, & Axl Rose, so Feb 6th has something for everybody I guess
