	9:02am StringOFperils: There, I'm in! srry.
	9:03am Trouble: goooood friday morning!
	9:03am Crownless Gander: This is a perfect intro to the weekend for me. A friend of mine has been learning to play the theremin and attending a workshop all week that will culminate in a group concert on Sunday. Plus, it's Trouble!
	9:06am YETI BOB: just lovely
	9:07am StringOFperils: I once read about that Yoko Ono piece up there is the very item that gallery goers had to climb up a step-ladder to read, it being part of an instillation, and that one of them, one day, was named John Lennon. He said that was the moment.
	9:07am StringOFperils: *pls excuse typos etc....ugh
	9:08am melinda: hi Trub
	9:11am Dave in Vermont: This is the article String refers to. www.newyorker.com...

	9:15am Phillippe: Good morning
	9:15am phillip: I cant find that song I once heard about "trouble"
	9:16am phillip: Anybody remember? "Cause when it starts with T and it ends in E. It's called trouble"
	9:17am fm Mike: Phillip was it Trouble by... Taylor Swift xD
	9:17am ChukAmok: @Dave (iV) Read a article similar in theme about Joan Vollmer somewhat recently.
	9:19am captain beef fart: Trouble filling in is a great Friday AM treat!
	9:20am StringOFperils: If you're lookin' for Trouble Trouble will find you Trouble will find you Deaf, dumb, and blind you Don't go lookin' for trouble Trouble will find you And you sure don't have to look too hard ___Steve Goodman via Charles Brown's late-life cover version
	9:20am Dave in Vermont: @Chuk, that's cool. Thank you. Reading her wiki page now.
	9:25am ChukAmok: @Dave Here's that article: lithub.com...
	9:25am Dave in Vermont: "Ginsberg wrote ‘Howl’ after dreaming of Vollmer and Burroughs claimed to have only ever written because of her death.
	9:30am Dave in Vermont: This LitHub article is great so far. That quote is from beatdom.com
	9:31am dmartnewmexico: Good morning! What a delightful surprise to hear you, Trouble!
	9:34am Zipperhead7: Ah, welcome back for the morning, Trouble! Great to hear you again!
	9:35am Xangoir: Friday night freeze pops
	9:36am meredith: How lovely! Tuned in and heard the birds. I thought to myself, could it be? Is it really Trouble? Indeed - what a nice surprise and start to the weekend. :) Thanks for being here!
	9:37am YETI BOB: DaVT: Thanks for posting that Ono article, I just finished reading it, learned a lot.
	9:37am Trouble: i swear new records pick up pops and scratches so much easier than old vinyl.
	9:40am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Trouble: You've got to stop stacking so many on the record changer. ;-)
	9:40am Zinn The Mood: Yes! Just sitting down with coffee and cereal, had flipped from BAI to here and heard the chirping birds… Delightful surprise to have you, Trouble. Feel like I haven’t been listening to the station as much without you. Hello, comrades! Feels like another world too, like a line in the street, after the Catholic fascist SCOTUS decisions, constant gun massacres and police murder of unarmed black people. Something feels different this time…
	9:49am Robm: Hello trouble and fellow troublemakers @Zinn for the past couple of years this strange wonderful station has been a balm, kept me from going insane and djs like trouble have kept me calm
	9:51am fred: I reluctantly like Yoko Ono's art. My mind isn't into it, but there's something raw that overrides the old brain
	9:53am dmartnewmexico: A belated: joyeux jour de la bastille!
	9:54am BillyLundun: what happens if I star every song in the playlist?
	9:54am abbazabba: Hi Trouble and everyone! Glad this show is on today. I miss hearing it every week but have definitely appreciated the several fill-in shows you've done already.
	9:57am somalisa: missed you, troubz <3
	9:58am PaulRobeson1922: Hi Hi Hi
	10:01am Kamen Rider BlaCk on 🔴 Red stereO: yO
	10:02am Krull Sagan: Someone named Françoisé Hardy was an art director on Daughters of Darkness (1971?) but appears to not be the same person….? Only this chat board would be able to help with this one!
	10:03am Handy Haversack: Krull!
	10:04am Analog Nights: I have trust issues with the quality of new vinyl
	10:07am Cooh John: Sounds like Trouble.
	10:08am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble with vinyl!
	10:11am DjLorraine: Gmorning Trouble, Cooh John, folks and birds
	10:12am Jason from Houston: Oh shoooooot... Nice. Good morning, Trouble. Good morning, good people.
	10:13am Tara: oh thank dog you’re here ! and suzanne with my coffee yesssssss
	10:21am Krull Sagan: Heya Handerson Haversackensack!
	10:22am Robm: @Zinn is WBAI still a hot mess?
	10:22am Krull Sagan: Loving this surprise Trouble with all ye modern worlders
	10:22am Peter in SEA: Summertime….and the livin’ is MODERN! Bon jour Trouble and modern listeners.
	10:25am Handy Haversack: Has Abbie been hanging out in our place? Those kittens WILL bite!
	10:27am zopa: Double Trouble. Yay!
	10:29am Peter in SEA: @string of perils: cool bit about that ONO piece. Grapefruit blew my mind when i found it in a used bookstore in my 20s
	10:30am Cooh John: 🙋DjLorraine. From Clay Pigeon's coo coo to Trouble's tweet tweet.🐦
	10:30am Adriana DC: Yes Trouble! Yma Sumac and Au Pairs in the same set!
	10:34am Zipperhead7: If anyone is looking for an adventure, take Amtrak from NYC to Seattle, drive down to Portland and then train back to NYC. Top tier of "roomette" was like sleeping in an MRI machine, but food was great and scenery spectacular
	10:36am prudy: Zip: a dream of mine has always been to travel cross-country via Amtrak...very envious...in spite of claustrophobic sleeping accomodations...
	10:37am Ken From Hyde Park: As I recall, you're not a coffee drinker, Trouble, but you can assure the staff that the post office should be wheeling a pallet of fresh beans across the parking lot any minute now.
	10:39am Trouble: @ ken, I loooove coffeee. got some cold brew, home made with me right now
	10:39am prudy: loving the Joe Bataan selection Trouble, thank you...
	10:40am Zipperhead7: If you want to do just one leg, take the California Zephyr from Chicago to Sacramento.
	10:42am Adriana DC: Train talk: We did DC to Chicago to San Franscisco. So fun, excellent service. The food was way better than we expected. The rooms were...adequate. But just look out the window! Wow!
	10:45am iiibeat: Had to tune into kfjc because my wfmu stream kept on cutting off . . But, I did want to say, even though obvious, that the word "Mediterranean" does indeed mean "middle Earth", even as Earth implicates Ur and Uranus. Who put "Earth" in "hearth"? Dunno. . But, also, heliocentric conceptualizations of reality and routine (fire) will all be destroyed by directionless "space-centric" methods of perceiving. ASAP. RIP Hubble Mediterranean "the sea between southern Europe and northern Africa," 1590s, earlier Mediterranie (c. 1400), from Late Latin Mediterraneum mare "Mediterranean Sea" (7c.), from Latin mediterraneus "midland, surrounded by land, in the midst of an expanse of land" (but in reference to the body of water between Europe and African the sense probably was "the sea in the middle of the earth"); from medius "middle" (from PIE root medhyo- "middle") + terra "land, earth" (from PIE root ters- "to dry").
	10:47am Ken From Hyde Park: Ah, OK. I also dove into cold brew recently. I've traveled Amtrak from Poughkeepsie to Chicago and back a couple times. It was irritating how the train would randomly come to a halt and wait for a freight train to clear the track.
	10:50am Zipperhead7: Yeah, if you schedule a trip be sure to schedule hours and hours between trains. They are ALWAYS late out West.
	10:51am Analog Nights: You're losing your Vitamin C
	10:51am YETI BOB: KFHP: I've ridden Amtrak all over the USA. Freight trains always get priority. It's not unusual to get 6-8 hours behind schedule on a long run, line CHI->SF
	10:53am Handy Haversack: Trains in NY, NE, and Canada used to stop at portage places so you and your canoe could be unloaded. I think my longest Amtrak was NYC-Ballimur. We took the TGV from Paris to Amsterdam once. That was wild.
	10:55am Gaston Musella: Very tasty. I smell Hackamore Brick, side 2, cut ?
	10:56am mndave: Analog Africa, take my money please
	10:57am zopa: Mine too!
	10:58am Crownless Gander: Aw yeah, been loving this Sudan Archives! Looking forward to the album.
	10:59am dmartnewmexico: Funny! I’m debating about cutting my long hair and getting a shag…
	11:01am Peter in SEA: The robber barons figured that out a long time ago…their freight is more important than your arrival!
	11:03am ChukAmok: Took the train from Raton, NM to Flagstaff, AZ once. Hung out for a week in Flag, then got on another train to Oakland via L.A. that was a loooong trip. Mostly used to eastern corridor trains before that time.
	11:06am Bimbus Bambus: I still think of The Life Pursuit as "new" Belle & Sebastian
	11:06am ChukAmok: Actually had to take an early :am Amtrak bus to get to Raton from Denver, and of course the train was nine hours late because of an accident in Kansas.
	11:07am YETI BOB: It's interesting to see the kinds of people who choose to travel by train instead of flying. Retirees, Amish and Mennonites, army vets, and random weirdos like me.
	11:08am drowsy: OMG - what service is that on? My fam is watching his Large Dreams Small Spaces thingy and really loving it.
	11:08am zopa: Monty did a whole series on gardening for small spaces.
	11:08am Fiona Lennon: come back to a regular slot soon!
	11:10am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): It's all Joe's fault. He should be pulling that giant lever labelled "INFLATION" that's behind his desk. Sheesh!
	11:10am drowsy: We are watching that on Prime. Monty makes me want to work in a padless cotton suit jacket again.
	11:11am rx scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone. There is so much Trouble now that they are "off" the schedule. No complaints.
	11:11am Crownless Gander: Feels like yesterday that Reagan did all that.
	11:11am Crownless Gander: I identify as a billionaire.
	11:12am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Heather Cox Richardson is a great read. And the mainstream media do a terrible job of pointing out that inflation is a global phenomenon. Or maybe most Americans are too stupid to care.
	11:12am rx scabin: Cory Doctorow is also worth following.
	11:12am tim from washington: Hi Trouble! Hi everybody!
	11:13am zopa: Hi Tim!
	11:13am Acid Cazh: “Middle Class” is based on WEALTH, not income. You could be making $500k a year but if you spend it all and don’t have a car, a home or a bunch of money in the bank you are not middle class.
	11:13am Peter in SEA: m.youtube.com... Heather cox-richardson’s youtube channel
	11:13am Analog Nights: No bird sounds for this
	11:13am Panther: Do we really need the politics?? Really sad. We really tune in for music. If we want propaganda we can tune to CNN or FOX. They are all trying to divide us, why does WFMU have to contribute to that? I don’t get it and it makes me want to cancel my monthly pledge. MUSIC PLEASE!!
	11:13am Susan See: HCR is my hero! Mornin’, Trouble!
	11:13am drowsy: Calling it: Trouble and $mall ¢change co-host during the next Marathon. Legend statii cemented and revolution kicks off. Can't wait!
	11:13am heatherita: It's actually good that there is inflation.We should outsource oil to foreign producers to eliminate as many US jobs as possible and ship fuel on large ships, and definitely keep all Chinese trade agreements.
	11:13am Crownless Gander: I'm here for the politics.
	11:14am Acid Cazh: Or if you have a ton of debt that cancels out your worth. But yeah, it’s not inflation — it’s price gouging. Also corporate profits are unpaid wages, stolen from the workers.
	11:14am YETI BOB: Acid: It's defined as making between 2/3 and double the median income, which is about 65K. So familes making between about 40K and 130K are middle class.
	11:14am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I'm here for the birds, the politics, and the cheap entertainment of seeing trolls unzip their heads and letting their tiny intellects flop out.
	11:14am Peter in SEA: Oh, @panther, really? Sigh…
	11:15am Crownless Gander: One CAN, however, commit "class suicide" by redistributing one's wealth.
	11:15am oshiwoshi: how relatively poorer we are is just a distraction without some effective climate policy (yes it is linked but refocus is required)
	11:15am drowsy: Well - guys I am a long Trouble sympathizer but on the mothership I can understand. Not saying stop but we shouldn't pile on panther.
	11:15am PaulRobeson1922: Middle class is defined as single person earning at-least $250,000 a year… The term Middle-Class comes about after WWII, right? With the success of keynesianism in the U.S.A
	11:16am Linda Saleski: Thanks for sharing HCR. I am so disappointed in how news is reported. News people have no excuse. Also I read Robert Reich and Popular Information.
	11:16am heatherita: Inflation, middle class, etc are all just rhetoric that can be twisted by very willing media. "Quality of life" is rhetoric too but I think it has a more direct connection with people's desires. QOL was good under Trump, with the exception of all the media hysteria. QOL is bad under Biden, simple.
	11:16am Zinn The Mood: @Robm have been trying to get kids out of the apt and finally have. Now that I’ve set up the hammock in the park, have Trouble on, a stack of books (one on William Kunstler, by Burroughs and a signed copy of Alex Vitale’s “The End of Policing”), and can finally catch up again. Don’t really follow the politics of BAI. Like certain shows like Law and Disorder, and Gary Null is a NYC icon (though he sometimes lately veers a bit too RW at times, which I don’t think he is). Anyway, overall they’ll always be such a necessary radical voice in a desert of compliant mainstream media that do nothing more than run distraction from how the capitalist economic system is driving society to ruin.
	11:16am Crownless Gander: Middle class is roughly equivalent to the bourgeoisie.
	11:17am PaulRobeson1922: Look @WoodsOfNH!! LOL
	11:17am bradford: well said WoodsOfNH & very funny
	11:17am YETI BOB: My QOL was not good under Trump, heatherita. There was this little thing called COVID that he handled terribly.
	11:17am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Linda Saleski: Hey, who let you in here?!!!! Cripes.
	11:17am heatherita: Trouble - I'm enjoying the music, thank you. :-)
	11:17am Crownless Gander: Acting as a buffer between the capitalists and the proletariat by hanging onto whatever comfort they can get, thus preventing revolution.
	11:18am tony: the restrictions on oil production, exploration and drilling leases that the Biden administration have put in place have caused market effects that are responsible for all time high fuel prices. fuel costs are the main driver for the higher costs of goods and services when the source to market transportation chain is affected. the policies of the administration are the primary reasons we are experiencing infationary price hikes.
	11:19am PaulRobeson1922: @Yeti: As of 2014 it is $250,000 a year in America. If you want source information, you gotta wait till I get home to the book
	11:20am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Crude is a global commodity. Fuel prices are just as high (if not higher) in other western countries. But facts have no value anymore.
	11:20am Peter in SEA: @tony record inflation in most of the developed world is that also the result of the Biden policies? LOL
	11:20am YETI BOB: PaulRobeson: I have no idea what you are talking about or where that number comes from. Median household income in USA in 2020 was $67K. Source: www.census.gov...
	11:20am abbazabba: @tony - serious question: if what you say is true, then why are the oil companies posting record profits?
	11:21am tony: unfortunately the US market is a major factor in the global economy
	11:22am PaulRobeson1922: @Yeti-Bob- from memory here- that $250,000 number comes from spending power today VS when the concept of Middle Class was created
	11:22am Jason from Houston: Niiiiiice!
	11:22am mndave: Bags of Tostitos Scoops used to be 2/$5 at my local grocery and now a single bag is $5.99. I'm dying
	11:22am drowsy: Not going to let go of the Trouble/$small ¢change combo. I'll write to congress^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hken if I have to. Love to Trouble and all commenters, have a great weekend everyone!
	11:23am wolf: speculators are a necessary component of any healthy ecosystem. they tend to cull the inefficient/parasitic entities in the market and take them to a swift extinction.
	11:23am PaulRobeson1922: @ Yeti- without touching on the Economics of Jim Crow
	11:23am PKNY: Oh snap, didn't know Khruangbin did a cover of "Summer Madness"!
	11:23am Susan See: @Panther. That was a short piece on economic history. It’s about the world you live in. It’s accurate and not political. Trouble is an artist and an extraordinary DJ. Artists are observers and feel cultural shifts and injustices in their soul. I’m grateful that Trouble shares a few minutes out of her three hours of fantastic music selections to inform listeners of important issues that effect us all.
	11:24am Zinn The Mood: The best economic takes to me can be found on Naked Capitalism, Counterpunch; anything by Michael Hudson, Richard Wolff, Matt Taibbi, George Monbiot to name a few. Of course everyone should read the late great David Graeber. For sanity of course Chapo Trap House is indispensable, for in-depth analysis Matt Christman’s CushVlog. All people you’ll never see on the MSM. Who else, Handy?
	11:24am PaulRobeson1922: WFMU: The James Webb Freakout Telescope Freakout radio Station Station
	11:25am βrian: This is the kind of Trouble we need.
	11:25am YETI BOB: @PR1922: Average family income in 1950 was $3300 (source: census.gov). A 1950 dollar is worth $12.30 today. 12.30 * 3300 = 40590. Nowhere near 250K.
	11:26am chris in the redwoods: So happy I am able to tune in live today. Always love your shows, Trouble! Hey, everyone!
	11:27am PaulRobeson1922: @YETI BOB: The Average income for a Black Family in America in 1950 was $400 dollars a year
	11:27am tony: @abbazabba profits are based on the difference between costs and income. the oil companies sell fuel based on anticipated costs for raw materials (crude oil), refinery operation and transportation costs. they base thier at the pump prices assuming the price of oil and transporttion will continue to rise.
	11:27am chris in the redwoods: Also thanks for the empirical evidence of the bullshit idea that is “trickle down” economics.
	11:29am tony: political discussions and awesome music are always welcome! and that is the point- debate and discussion. peace
	11:29am YETI BOB: @PR1922: That number I can believe. Structural racism is real, and awful.
	11:31am zopa: Universal Housing AND Healthcare!
	11:31am YETI BOB: PR1922: "Income and Wealth Inequality in America, 1949-2016" from the Minneapolis branch of the Federal Reserve www.minneapolisfed.org...
	11:32am PaulRobeson1922: @YETI BOB: I do my best to give it to you straight. @YETI BOB: When did the term “Middle Class” come into popular usage? 1946? 1947?
	11:32am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): U.S crude oil product by year (in thousands of barrels/day) 2016 - 8844 2017 - 9357 2018 - 10,941 2019 - 12,289 2020 - 11, 283 2021 - 11, 138
	11:33am Peter in SEA: Yes! Now it’s a modern day with Blossom :-)
	11:34am YETI BOB: PR: Per the 'pedia: "The modern usage of the term "middle-class", however, dates to the 1913 UK Registrar-General's report, in which the statistician T.H.C. Stevenson identified the middle class as those falling between the upper-class and the working-class"
	11:34am PaulRobeson1922: Not sure about that 1
	11:34am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Every time somebody plays Blossom Dearie I think, "Why don't I own more of her records??"
	11:35am PaulRobeson1922: I understand the Term to come about after FDR/towards the end of WWII- In These United States of America
	11:35am patrick321: Hey Trouble and all. I love this Birdie record.
	11:35am heatherita: @Peter I love Blossom too
	11:36am PaulRobeson1922: & the term applied to Men only
	11:37am adampsyche: ahahaha let the PSE&G person in someone quick
	11:38am phillip: Ohh noo PSE&G. LET HIM IN LET HIM IN
	11:41am adampsyche: if they're there to shut off the power, keep that door closed.
	11:41am oshiwoshi: Why are we still harping on about an economy based on labour - can't we get the robos to do it all? - i want my life of leisure complete with white robe and golden headband that I was promised as a sprog
	11:42am phillip: Ohhh NOOO! LOCK HIM OUT...LOCK HIM OUT.
	11:42am rdnnyc: So happy to hear your voice today Trouble! Economic history, stuck service men and all! I lol'd when Michele said that people emailed her to tell her what a great show "she" did while you were filling in. Have a happy summer - hope to hear more fill-ins too:)
	11:43am tim from washington: I like the rubbery sound of this song.
	11:43am YETI BOB: Sounds a bit like Damo Suzuki
	11:44am rx scabin: Thank you, Trouble. Each show is better than the others.
	11:46am rx scabin: This is a good beat.
	11:46am tim from washington: Right, Yeti! Hey, I'm moving back to Champaign in early August. Maybe we can cross paths at a show sometime up in Chicagoland.
	11:47am Zinn The Mood: Right on, Crownless Gander. Precisely! Oshiwoshi, don’t you know your whole value and identity as a human being is tied up in what you “do,” your job? We’re all just good obedient cogs in the relentlessly churning capitalist grinder. As long as the Amazon treats keep flowing no one wants to cause any Trouble. And especially don’t give any thought to the reality that most of these disposable treats and goodies are made by child slave labor in SE Asia. These kinds of discussions will never take place in the MSM.
	11:47am DPL: My man Sakamoto!! Been listening to his newest like crazy and getting into Yura Yura Teikoku. Thanks for pulling out this one from his previous solo stuff. Reminds me of "I Am Strange" by Sun Ra in the jangling
	11:48am Martin: Thank you Trouble for making my last work afternoon much, much lighter :)
	11:50am Trouble: thanks for sitting in today! and thanks for all the good wishes!
	11:50am YETI BOB: Tim - yeah if you are ever in Chicago please hit me up!
	11:50am oshiwoshi: @ Zinn <3
	11:50am oshiwoshi: Thank you Trouble!
	11:52am rx scabin: Sessa. Thanks for playing this.
	11:52am AnotherJon: Shintaro and then Sessa. Your killin' it Trouble! Love it
	11:53am AnotherJon: Saw Sessa in Philly a couple months ago. Awesome show
	11:54am tim from washington: Will do, Yeti! I'm already scoping out shows of interest.
	11:54am tim from washington: Thanks, Trouble!!!!!!!!
	11:54am Peter in SEA: Omg, there’s a mustard crisis in France! Should we send them boxes of French’s? Great show today Trouble! Any more scheduled fill-ins this summer?
	11:54am Trouble: sessa is so wonderful live! i am glad you got to see him @ anotherjon
	11:55am patrick321: Geez Birdie and Antena in the same morning. Making my day. Thanks Trouble!
	11:55am Trouble: merci @ peter. none scheduled yet...
	11:56am Jason from Houston: Many thanks, Trouble. Good to catch you and these fine sounds.
	11:57am rx scabin: @Peter in SEA an act of war.
	11:57am βrian: Mille mercis, Trouble.
	11:59am tony: to me trickle down works and i have seen it in action. if a company makes more profit at the end of the year because their tax obligation is lower they have more funds to invest in new programs which leads to more jobs and improved economy. there isn't some hand rubbing miser on high, it is businesss wanting to grow.
	11:59am heatherita: Nice, Durutti column
	11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Trouble. Take care!
	12:00pm PaulRobeson1922: Thanks, Trouble! Thank you WFMU:The James Webb Freakout Telescope music radio station!!!!
	12:10pm Crownless Gander: @Tony The past 40 years beg to differ. Thanks for a great show, as always, Trouble!
	5:47pm UncleMarty: The opposite of democracy (dilution of power) is capitalism (concentration of power).

This Is The Modern World with Trouble: Playlist from July 15, 2022

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.

	9:03am Trouble: goooood friday morning!
	9:03am Crownless Gander: This is a perfect intro to the weekend for me. A friend of mine has been learning to play the theremin and attending a workshop all week that will culminate in a group concert on Sunday. Plus, it's Trouble!
	9:06am YETI BOB: just lovely
	9:07am StringOFperils: I once read about that Yoko Ono piece up there is the very item that gallery goers had to climb up a step-ladder to read, it being part of an instillation, and that one of them, one day, was named John Lennon. He said that was the moment.
	9:07am StringOFperils: *pls excuse typos etc....ugh
	9:08am melinda: hi Trub
	9:11am Dave in Vermont: This is the article String refers to. www.newyorker.com...

	9:20am StringOFperils: If you're lookin' for Trouble Trouble will find you Trouble will find you Deaf, dumb, and blind you Don't go lookin' for trouble Trouble will find you And you sure don't have to look too hard ___Steve Goodman via Charles Brown's late-life cover version
	9:20am Dave in Vermont: @Chuk, that's cool. Thank you. Reading her wiki page now.
	9:25am ChukAmok: @Dave Here's that article: lithub.com...
	9:25am Dave in Vermont: "Ginsberg wrote ‘Howl’ after dreaming of Vollmer and Burroughs claimed to have only ever written because of her death.
	9:30am Dave in Vermont: This LitHub article is great so far. That quote is from beatdom.com
	9:31am dmartnewmexico: Good morning! What a delightful surprise to hear you, Trouble!
	9:34am Zipperhead7: Ah, welcome back for the morning, Trouble! Great to hear you again!
	9:35am Xangoir: Friday night freeze pops
	9:36am meredith: How lovely! Tuned in and heard the birds. I thought to myself, could it be? Is it really Trouble? Indeed - what a nice surprise and start to the weekend. :) Thanks for being here!
	9:37am YETI BOB: DaVT: Thanks for posting that Ono article, I just finished reading it, learned a lot.
	9:37am Trouble: i swear new records pick up pops and scratches so much easier than old vinyl.
	9:40am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Trouble: You've got to stop stacking so many on the record changer. ;-)
	9:40am Zinn The Mood: Yes! Just sitting down with coffee and cereal, had flipped from BAI to here and heard the chirping birds… Delightful surprise to have you, Trouble. Feel like I haven’t been listening to the station as much without you. Hello, comrades! Feels like another world too, like a line in the street, after the Catholic fascist SCOTUS decisions, constant gun massacres and police murder of unarmed black people. Something feels different this time…
	9:49am Robm: Hello trouble and fellow troublemakers @Zinn for the past couple of years this strange wonderful station has been a balm, kept me from going insane and djs like trouble have kept me calm
	9:51am fred: I reluctantly like Yoko Ono's art. My mind isn't into it, but there's something raw that overrides the old brain
	9:53am dmartnewmexico: A belated: joyeux jour de la bastille!
	9:54am BillyLundun: what happens if I star every song in the playlist?
	9:54am abbazabba: Hi Trouble and everyone! Glad this show is on today. I miss hearing it every week but have definitely appreciated the several fill-in shows you've done already.
	9:57am somalisa: missed you, troubz <3
	9:58am PaulRobeson1922: Hi Hi Hi
	10:01am Kamen Rider BlaCk on 🔴 Red stereO: yO
	10:02am Krull Sagan: Someone named Françoisé Hardy was an art director on Daughters of Darkness (1971?) but appears to not be the same person….? Only this chat board would be able to help with this one!
	10:03am Handy Haversack: Krull!
	10:04am Analog Nights: I have trust issues with the quality of new vinyl
	10:07am Cooh John: Sounds like Trouble.
	10:08am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble with vinyl!
	10:11am DjLorraine: Gmorning Trouble, Cooh John, folks and birds
	10:12am Jason from Houston: Oh shoooooot... Nice. Good morning, Trouble. Good morning, good people.
	10:13am Tara: oh thank dog you’re here ! and suzanne with my coffee yesssssss
	10:21am Krull Sagan: Heya Handerson Haversackensack!
	10:22am Robm: @Zinn is WBAI still a hot mess?
	10:22am Krull Sagan: Loving this surprise Trouble with all ye modern worlders
	10:22am Peter in SEA: Summertime….and the livin’ is MODERN! Bon jour Trouble and modern listeners.
	10:25am Handy Haversack: Has Abbie been hanging out in our place? Those kittens WILL bite!
	10:27am zopa: Double Trouble. Yay!
	10:29am Peter in SEA: @string of perils: cool bit about that ONO piece. Grapefruit blew my mind when i found it in a used bookstore in my 20s
	10:30am Cooh John: 🙋DjLorraine. From Clay Pigeon's coo coo to Trouble's tweet tweet.🐦
	10:30am Adriana DC: Yes Trouble! Yma Sumac and Au Pairs in the same set!
	10:34am Zipperhead7: If anyone is looking for an adventure, take Amtrak from NYC to Seattle, drive down to Portland and then train back to NYC. Top tier of "roomette" was like sleeping in an MRI machine, but food was great and scenery spectacular
	10:36am prudy: Zip: a dream of mine has always been to travel cross-country via Amtrak...very envious...in spite of claustrophobic sleeping accomodations...
	10:37am Ken From Hyde Park: As I recall, you're not a coffee drinker, Trouble, but you can assure the staff that the post office should be wheeling a pallet of fresh beans across the parking lot any minute now.
	10:39am Trouble: @ ken, I loooove coffeee. got some cold brew, home made with me right now
	10:39am prudy: loving the Joe Bataan selection Trouble, thank you...
	10:40am Zipperhead7: If you want to do just one leg, take the California Zephyr from Chicago to Sacramento.
	10:42am Adriana DC: Train talk: We did DC to Chicago to San Franscisco. So fun, excellent service. The food was way better than we expected. The rooms were...adequate. But just look out the window! Wow!
	10:45am iiibeat: Had to tune into kfjc because my wfmu stream kept on cutting off . . But, I did want to say, even though obvious, that the word "Mediterranean" does indeed mean "middle Earth", even as Earth implicates Ur and Uranus. Who put "Earth" in "hearth"? Dunno. . But, also, heliocentric conceptualizations of reality and routine (fire) will all be destroyed by directionless "space-centric" methods of perceiving. ASAP. RIP Hubble Mediterranean "the sea between southern Europe and northern Africa," 1590s, earlier Mediterranie (c. 1400), from Late Latin Mediterraneum mare "Mediterranean Sea" (7c.), from Latin mediterraneus "midland, surrounded by land, in the midst of an expanse of land" (but in reference to the body of water between Europe and African the sense probably was "the sea in the middle of the earth"); from medius "middle" (from PIE root medhyo- "middle") + terra "land, earth" (from PIE root ters- "to dry").
	10:47am Ken From Hyde Park: Ah, OK. I also dove into cold brew recently. I've traveled Amtrak from Poughkeepsie to Chicago and back a couple times. It was irritating how the train would randomly come to a halt and wait for a freight train to clear the track.
	10:50am Zipperhead7: Yeah, if you schedule a trip be sure to schedule hours and hours between trains. They are ALWAYS late out West.
	10:51am Analog Nights: You're losing your Vitamin C
	10:51am YETI BOB: KFHP: I've ridden Amtrak all over the USA. Freight trains always get priority. It's not unusual to get 6-8 hours behind schedule on a long run, line CHI->SF
	10:53am Handy Haversack: Trains in NY, NE, and Canada used to stop at portage places so you and your canoe could be unloaded. I think my longest Amtrak was NYC-Ballimur. We took the TGV from Paris to Amsterdam once. That was wild.
	10:55am Gaston Musella: Very tasty. I smell Hackamore Brick, side 2, cut ?
	10:56am mndave: Analog Africa, take my money please
	10:57am zopa: Mine too!
	10:58am Crownless Gander: Aw yeah, been loving this Sudan Archives! Looking forward to the album.
	10:59am dmartnewmexico: Funny! I’m debating about cutting my long hair and getting a shag…
	11:01am Peter in SEA: The robber barons figured that out a long time ago…their freight is more important than your arrival!
	11:03am ChukAmok: Took the train from Raton, NM to Flagstaff, AZ once. Hung out for a week in Flag, then got on another train to Oakland via L.A. that was a loooong trip. Mostly used to eastern corridor trains before that time.
	11:06am Bimbus Bambus: I still think of The Life Pursuit as "new" Belle & Sebastian
	11:06am ChukAmok: Actually had to take an early :am Amtrak bus to get to Raton from Denver, and of course the train was nine hours late because of an accident in Kansas.
	11:07am YETI BOB: It's interesting to see the kinds of people who choose to travel by train instead of flying. Retirees, Amish and Mennonites, army vets, and random weirdos like me.
	11:08am drowsy: OMG - what service is that on? My fam is watching his Large Dreams Small Spaces thingy and really loving it.
	11:08am zopa: Monty did a whole series on gardening for small spaces.
	11:08am Fiona Lennon: come back to a regular slot soon!
	11:10am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): It's all Joe's fault. He should be pulling that giant lever labelled "INFLATION" that's behind his desk. Sheesh!
	11:10am drowsy: We are watching that on Prime. Monty makes me want to work in a padless cotton suit jacket again.
	11:11am rx scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone. There is so much Trouble now that they are "off" the schedule. No complaints.
	11:11am Crownless Gander: Feels like yesterday that Reagan did all that.
	11:11am Crownless Gander: I identify as a billionaire.
	11:12am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Heather Cox Richardson is a great read. And the mainstream media do a terrible job of pointing out that inflation is a global phenomenon. Or maybe most Americans are too stupid to care.
	11:12am rx scabin: Cory Doctorow is also worth following.
	11:12am tim from washington: Hi Trouble! Hi everybody!
	11:13am zopa: Hi Tim!
	11:13am Acid Cazh: “Middle Class” is based on WEALTH, not income. You could be making $500k a year but if you spend it all and don’t have a car, a home or a bunch of money in the bank you are not middle class.
	11:13am Peter in SEA: m.youtube.com... Heather cox-richardson’s youtube channel
	11:13am Analog Nights: No bird sounds for this
	11:13am Panther: Do we really need the politics?? Really sad. We really tune in for music. If we want propaganda we can tune to CNN or FOX. They are all trying to divide us, why does WFMU have to contribute to that? I don’t get it and it makes me want to cancel my monthly pledge. MUSIC PLEASE!!
	11:13am Susan See: HCR is my hero! Mornin’, Trouble!
	11:13am drowsy: Calling it: Trouble and $mall ¢change co-host during the next Marathon. Legend statii cemented and revolution kicks off. Can't wait!
	11:13am heatherita: It's actually good that there is inflation.We should outsource oil to foreign producers to eliminate as many US jobs as possible and ship fuel on large ships, and definitely keep all Chinese trade agreements.
	11:13am Crownless Gander: I'm here for the politics.
	11:14am Acid Cazh: Or if you have a ton of debt that cancels out your worth. But yeah, it’s not inflation — it’s price gouging. Also corporate profits are unpaid wages, stolen from the workers.
	11:14am YETI BOB: Acid: It's defined as making between 2/3 and double the median income, which is about 65K. So familes making between about 40K and 130K are middle class.
	11:14am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I'm here for the birds, the politics, and the cheap entertainment of seeing trolls unzip their heads and letting their tiny intellects flop out.
	11:14am Peter in SEA: Oh, @panther, really? Sigh…
	11:15am Crownless Gander: One CAN, however, commit "class suicide" by redistributing one's wealth.
	11:15am oshiwoshi: how relatively poorer we are is just a distraction without some effective climate policy (yes it is linked but refocus is required)
	11:15am drowsy: Well - guys I am a long Trouble sympathizer but on the mothership I can understand. Not saying stop but we shouldn't pile on panther.
	11:15am PaulRobeson1922: Middle class is defined as single person earning at-least $250,000 a year… The term Middle-Class comes about after WWII, right? With the success of keynesianism in the U.S.A
	11:16am Linda Saleski: Thanks for sharing HCR. I am so disappointed in how news is reported. News people have no excuse. Also I read Robert Reich and Popular Information.
	11:16am heatherita: Inflation, middle class, etc are all just rhetoric that can be twisted by very willing media. "Quality of life" is rhetoric too but I think it has a more direct connection with people's desires. QOL was good under Trump, with the exception of all the media hysteria. QOL is bad under Biden, simple.
	11:16am Zinn The Mood: @Robm have been trying to get kids out of the apt and finally have. Now that I’ve set up the hammock in the park, have Trouble on, a stack of books (one on William Kunstler, by Burroughs and a signed copy of Alex Vitale’s “The End of Policing”), and can finally catch up again. Don’t really follow the politics of BAI. Like certain shows like Law and Disorder, and Gary Null is a NYC icon (though he sometimes lately veers a bit too RW at times, which I don’t think he is). Anyway, overall they’ll always be such a necessary radical voice in a desert of compliant mainstream media that do nothing more than run distraction from how the capitalist economic system is driving society to ruin.
	11:16am Crownless Gander: Middle class is roughly equivalent to the bourgeoisie.
	11:17am PaulRobeson1922: Look @WoodsOfNH!! LOL
	11:17am bradford: well said WoodsOfNH & very funny
	11:17am YETI BOB: My QOL was not good under Trump, heatherita. There was this little thing called COVID that he handled terribly.
	11:17am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Linda Saleski: Hey, who let you in here?!!!! Cripes.
	11:17am heatherita: Trouble - I'm enjoying the music, thank you. :-)
	11:17am Crownless Gander: Acting as a buffer between the capitalists and the proletariat by hanging onto whatever comfort they can get, thus preventing revolution.
	11:18am tony: the restrictions on oil production, exploration and drilling leases that the Biden administration have put in place have caused market effects that are responsible for all time high fuel prices. fuel costs are the main driver for the higher costs of goods and services when the source to market transportation chain is affected. the policies of the administration are the primary reasons we are experiencing infationary price hikes.
	11:19am PaulRobeson1922: @Yeti: As of 2014 it is $250,000 a year in America. If you want source information, you gotta wait till I get home to the book
	11:20am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Crude is a global commodity. Fuel prices are just as high (if not higher) in other western countries. But facts have no value anymore.
	11:20am Peter in SEA: @tony record inflation in most of the developed world is that also the result of the Biden policies? LOL
	11:20am YETI BOB: PaulRobeson: I have no idea what you are talking about or where that number comes from. Median household income in USA in 2020 was $67K. Source: www.census.gov...
	11:20am abbazabba: @tony - serious question: if what you say is true, then why are the oil companies posting record profits?
	11:21am tony: unfortunately the US market is a major factor in the global economy
	11:22am PaulRobeson1922: @Yeti-Bob- from memory here- that $250,000 number comes from spending power today VS when the concept of Middle Class was created
	11:22am Jason from Houston: Niiiiiice!
	11:22am mndave: Bags of Tostitos Scoops used to be 2/$5 at my local grocery and now a single bag is $5.99. I'm dying
	11:22am drowsy: Not going to let go of the Trouble/$small ¢change combo. I'll write to congress^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hken if I have to. Love to Trouble and all commenters, have a great weekend everyone!
	11:23am wolf: speculators are a necessary component of any healthy ecosystem. they tend to cull the inefficient/parasitic entities in the market and take them to a swift extinction.
	11:23am PaulRobeson1922: @ Yeti- without touching on the Economics of Jim Crow
	11:23am PKNY: Oh snap, didn't know Khruangbin did a cover of "Summer Madness"!
	11:23am Susan See: @Panther. That was a short piece on economic history. It’s about the world you live in. It’s accurate and not political. Trouble is an artist and an extraordinary DJ. Artists are observers and feel cultural shifts and injustices in their soul. I’m grateful that Trouble shares a few minutes out of her three hours of fantastic music selections to inform listeners of important issues that effect us all.
	11:24am Zinn The Mood: The best economic takes to me can be found on Naked Capitalism, Counterpunch; anything by Michael Hudson, Richard Wolff, Matt Taibbi, George Monbiot to name a few. Of course everyone should read the late great David Graeber. For sanity of course Chapo Trap House is indispensable, for in-depth analysis Matt Christman’s CushVlog. All people you’ll never see on the MSM. Who else, Handy?
	11:24am PaulRobeson1922: WFMU: The James Webb Freakout Telescope Freakout radio Station Station
	11:25am βrian: This is the kind of Trouble we need.
	11:25am YETI BOB: @PR1922: Average family income in 1950 was $3300 (source: census.gov). A 1950 dollar is worth $12.30 today. 12.30 * 3300 = 40590. Nowhere near 250K.
	11:26am chris in the redwoods: So happy I am able to tune in live today. Always love your shows, Trouble! Hey, everyone!
	11:27am PaulRobeson1922: @YETI BOB: The Average income for a Black Family in America in 1950 was $400 dollars a year
	11:27am tony: @abbazabba profits are based on the difference between costs and income. the oil companies sell fuel based on anticipated costs for raw materials (crude oil), refinery operation and transportation costs. they base thier at the pump prices assuming the price of oil and transporttion will continue to rise.
	11:27am chris in the redwoods: Also thanks for the empirical evidence of the bullshit idea that is “trickle down” economics.
	11:29am tony: political discussions and awesome music are always welcome! and that is the point- debate and discussion. peace
	11:29am YETI BOB: @PR1922: That number I can believe. Structural racism is real, and awful.
	11:31am zopa: Universal Housing AND Healthcare!
	11:31am YETI BOB: PR1922: "Income and Wealth Inequality in America, 1949-2016" from the Minneapolis branch of the Federal Reserve www.minneapolisfed.org...
	11:32am PaulRobeson1922: @YETI BOB: I do my best to give it to you straight. @YETI BOB: When did the term “Middle Class” come into popular usage? 1946? 1947?
	11:32am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): U.S crude oil product by year (in thousands of barrels/day) 2016 - 8844 2017 - 9357 2018 - 10,941 2019 - 12,289 2020 - 11, 283 2021 - 11, 138
	11:33am Peter in SEA: Yes! Now it’s a modern day with Blossom :-)
	11:34am YETI BOB: PR: Per the 'pedia: "The modern usage of the term "middle-class", however, dates to the 1913 UK Registrar-General's report, in which the statistician T.H.C. Stevenson identified the middle class as those falling between the upper-class and the working-class"
	11:34am PaulRobeson1922: Not sure about that 1
	11:34am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Every time somebody plays Blossom Dearie I think, "Why don't I own more of her records??"
	11:35am PaulRobeson1922: I understand the Term to come about after FDR/towards the end of WWII- In These United States of America
	11:35am patrick321: Hey Trouble and all. I love this Birdie record.
	11:35am heatherita: @Peter I love Blossom too
	11:36am PaulRobeson1922: & the term applied to Men only
	11:37am adampsyche: ahahaha let the PSE&G person in someone quick
	11:38am phillip: Ohh noo PSE&G. LET HIM IN LET HIM IN
	11:41am adampsyche: if they're there to shut off the power, keep that door closed.
	11:41am oshiwoshi: Why are we still harping on about an economy based on labour - can't we get the robos to do it all? - i want my life of leisure complete with white robe and golden headband that I was promised as a sprog
	11:42am phillip: Ohhh NOOO! LOCK HIM OUT...LOCK HIM OUT.
	11:42am rdnnyc: So happy to hear your voice today Trouble! Economic history, stuck service men and all! I lol'd when Michele said that people emailed her to tell her what a great show "she" did while you were filling in. Have a happy summer - hope to hear more fill-ins too:)
	11:43am tim from washington: I like the rubbery sound of this song.

	11:46am rx scabin: This is a good beat.
	11:46am tim from washington: Right, Yeti! Hey, I'm moving back to Champaign in early August. Maybe we can cross paths at a show sometime up in Chicagoland.
	11:47am Zinn The Mood: Right on, Crownless Gander. Precisely! Oshiwoshi, don’t you know your whole value and identity as a human being is tied up in what you “do,” your job? We’re all just good obedient cogs in the relentlessly churning capitalist grinder. As long as the Amazon treats keep flowing no one wants to cause any Trouble. And especially don’t give any thought to the reality that most of these disposable treats and goodies are made by child slave labor in SE Asia. These kinds of discussions will never take place in the MSM.
	11:47am DPL: My man Sakamoto!! Been listening to his newest like crazy and getting into Yura Yura Teikoku. Thanks for pulling out this one from his previous solo stuff. Reminds me of "I Am Strange" by Sun Ra in the jangling

	11:50am Trouble: thanks for sitting in today! and thanks for all the good wishes!

	11:54am Peter in SEA: Omg, there’s a mustard crisis in France! Should we send them boxes of French’s? Great show today Trouble! Any more scheduled fill-ins this summer?

	11:57am βrian: Mille mercis, Trouble.
	11:59am tony: to me trickle down works and i have seen it in action. if a company makes more profit at the end of the year because their tax obligation is lower they have more funds to invest in new programs which leads to more jobs and improved economy. there isn't some hand rubbing miser on high, it is businesss wanting to grow.
	11:59am heatherita: Nice, Durutti column
	11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Trouble. Take care!

	5:47pm UncleMarty: The opposite of democracy (dilution of power) is capitalism (concentration of power).
