	♥ 9:03am DjLorraine: Oh oh oh Joe Joe Joe!
	♥ 9:04am McGroovey: I have to come clean and admit that this aliens intro scares me, like the flying monkeys in the Wizard of Oz, and I know it's supposed to make me laugh.
	♥ 9:04am Handy Haversack: Yip! there it is! Hey, Joe and all.

	♥ 9:04am LastWhiteRhino: I like Surface Noise, how bout You ?
	9:05am Danny C: Buongiorno Giuseppe! Listening live for a change!
	♥ 9:05am Webhamster Henry: @McGroovie it's lots less threatening if you see the original video www.youtube.com...
	9:06am Robm: Never thought I would hear bing and rosemary clooney on this station
	♥ 9:06am Webhamster Henry: Hey Surface noisers! I got my WFMU Swag delivery and am wearing my WFMU apron, but can't type with the oven mitt on.
	♥ 9:06am Son Of Pantz: It's a duet day, I see.
	♥ 9:07am LastWhiteRhino: What's next?...Sonny and Cher????
	♥ 9:07am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): What's wrong with Sonny and Cher?
	♥ 9:07am Webhamster Henry: Looking for Anita O'Day's "Tea for Two" from Jazz on a SUmmer's Day...
	♥ 9:07am Rick from SC: Love the upbeat start.
	♥ 9:08am yerfriendpaul: Hey Joe, everyone! Heaven!
	9:08am John in Phoenixville: Hey Joe! I’m digging hearing Peggy Lee on your show.
	♥ 9:10am karlward: Ella Fitz into any situation
	9:10am mark/msk/denver: great start joe!!!
	♥ 9:11am yerfriendpaul: That band behind Ella. So great
	♥ 9:11am Krys O.: Greetings!
	9:11am PuraVida: Today's the anniversary of The Beatles playing Shea Stadium but that wasn't in 1958 so it doesn't fit today's theme...
	♥ 9:12am Brian in UK: Hey Joe. Some cooling rain here today.
	9:14am HyperDose: This first set is something else, Joe!
	🎸 ♥ 9:15am The Butterman: Billy Butterfield! That’s my kinda butter!
	♥ 9:15am Joe McG: Welcome, everyone! Thanks for joining me today for some Butter(field) and Coffee.
	9:16am Deano de los Muertos: Good timing with this one, Joe ☕️
	9:16am Tom from Stirling.: Rosemary, Peggy, Ella, Dottie. They just dont make 'em like that anymore. And Carmen. C'mon.
	♥ 9:17am yerfriendpaul: Proud to say my dad accompanied Carmen McCrae on piano one evening
	9:17am Lord Jimz: and Vaughan
	9:18am John in Phoenixville: I thought I had everything by Carmen McRae, but I’ve never heard this track! Thanks for hipping me to it, Joe. Sounds like it’s from her Columbia era. She’s in peak voice.
	♥ 9:18am McGroovey: I went and googled around to figure out when the Sesame Street aliens radio skit was first broadcast, to see whether scared me when I was little or something. But no, it was 1979. I was 16, and (more importantly) when I was a teenager I was living beyond the range of any PBS station. So maybe it's just Fear of Mondays.
	♥ 9:19am Krys O.: I know it's wrong, but I can't help but think of Stan Freberg when I hear Johnnie Ray.
	♥ 9:19am listener james from westwood: Poor old Johnnie Ray.
	9:20am Lord Jimz: Oh I see What you mean, Tom. Just got here.
	🎸 ♥ 9:21am Strandlund: Got any Frankie Laine in your back pocket Joe?
	9:21am Brooklyn Clay: John, you've prob heard it, but “Live At The Dug,” where she’s just playing piano and singing, is just fabulous
	♥ 9:22am Webhamster Henry: I like that bit in the beginning of Grace of My Heart where Edna gets that news that record companies are no longer interested in girl singers of the kind being highlighted in this set.
	♥ 9:23am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Modern jazz singers I love: Cassandra Wilson, Esperanza Spalding, Diana Krall, Madeleine Peyroux. I'm sure there are others but I'm too full of Monday to think straight.
	♥ 9:24am common: hello joe, all
	9:24am Brooklyn Clay: Be on the lookout for Samara Joy, the next great singer in that line
	♥ 9:25am Webhamster Henry: Pearl was a class act!
	9:25am John in Phoenixville: @Brooklyn Clay: You’re right! Thanks for the reminder that it’s on there too. Haven’t listened to that one in a while. Will have to “dug” it out.
	9:26am Tom from Stirling.: @Woods: they're okay, I suppose. Can't compare to these greats Joe's playing now. These voices are like bells ringing. Or something
	9:26am Lord Jimz: Super Set, Joebro
	♥ 9:26am Baja Joe: Hello Joe. This set is wonderful.
	9:26am MplsCoco: Morning Joe! 🌞❤️
	♥ 9:26am Marley P. Dogg: Morning Joe and friends
	9:27am John in Phoenixville: @Brooklyn Clay: Sorry, got confused there for a moment. Got it. That song is not on the Dug, but I agree that it’s a fantastic record!
	♥ 9:27am yerfriendpaul: I got a chance to meet Tony Bennet and I asked him what was the first record he owned that he couldn’t get enough of. He answered Mel Tormé and the Meltones
	♥ 9:27am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Brooklyn Clay: Thanks for that. I just listened to 15 seconds of her doing "Stardust" and boom, she goes right to the Bandcamp wishlist.
	9:28am HyperDose: These vocal inflections are quite pleasing
	9:28am Tom from Stirling.: Who said WFMU doesn't play good music?
	♥ 9:28am Asheville Jon: what a nice set to be listening to while having a casual breakfast with my kids. thanks Joe!
	♥ 9:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Some Like It Temperately Warm ...also too full of Monday but let's Swing that mighty load like the horse Ella Mae Morse rode in on...
	9:28am Deano de los Muertos: The Velvet Fog
	♥ 9:29am Webhamster Henry: You ought to sneak in some Postmodern Jukebox at the end here.
	♥ 9:29am Krys O.: Mel's collaboration with Was (Not Was), Zazz Turned Blue is a gem.
	9:29am Tom from Stirling.: Up next, Perry Como? Hope so.
	♥ 9:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Propeller plane era timbres.
	9:31am John in Phoenixville: @ Joe McG: I feel like this set was commissioned for me.
	♥ 9:32am Handy Haversack: End of the road for a heck of a set!
	9:32am HyperDose: Absolutely nailed that first set 🎯 Monday is off to a great start!
	♥ 9:32am Webhamster Henry: @Krys O. I sing Zaz Turned Blue a whole lot.
	9:32am word: Really digging this set Joe
	9:33am word: Like wow
	9:35am TerrDE: twice the Joes, double the great music
	♥ 9:36am The Oscar: "Blue Suede Lips" is begging to be used as the title of something or other.
	9:36am TerrDE: i guess theres no Mel T sings Carl P
	♥ 9:36am McGroovey: My dad would know which orchestra was on that. He had encyclopedic knowledge of records of this era.
	9:37am trailrunnah: Goofis.. I’m totally stealing that. 😂
	9:38am John in Phoenixville: I think “The Kay Starr Style” was a “pick-up” album of singles (and maybe leftovers), hence all the arrangers. Harold Mooney did that track.
	♥ 9:39am Webhamster Henry: "The Gentleman Is a Dope" is a show tune from the Roger & Hammerstein flop "Allegro". This has been an Acid Jazz Hands moment.
	♥ 9:39am karlward: Joe on coffee: plays all noise punk
	9:42am HyperDose: I bet Greg from Zone 5 probably has a 3hr HxC punk show in the can
	9:42am TerrDE: There once was a Goofis named Mel. Who thought Rock and Roll was from Hell. His Jazz he would sing. The lyrics he'd wing... Was he right ? Time refuses to tell.
	9:44am msk: joe on coffee flamenco and gamellan joe on décaf. all twisted sister and Iron Maiden sprinkle bêla bartok
	♥ 9:44am karlward: Now I am wondering how much coffee Creamo drinks, and whether a lack of coffee would make Creamo play all late fifties pop standards
	♥ 9:44am The Oscar: Question for the WFMU hivemind: does anyone have any good record-shopping recs for London? Going for the first time in a couple of days, and looking forward to doing some digging!
	9:45am the illuminated void: working with all el Salvador crew today. I'm not fluent in Spanish..I'm sure they will appreciate music
	♥ 9:47am karlward: The Oscar: Years and years ago I found great stuff at Rough Trade West London, blog.roughtrade.com...
	9:48am Tom from Stirling.: Won't you come home, Pearl Bailey Won't you come home?
	9:48am mark/denver: joe on ketamine continuous loop quentin tarantino best scenes
	♥ 9:51am Joe McG: I like that you are all imagining me wired on substances.
	9:51am SamTheRam: Thanks for getting my morning started right Joe
	9:51am mark: pretty good Michael pollan on quitting coffee for 3 months...14 minute joe rogan interview-- good history
	♥ 9:52am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...all the caffeine I can get from anywhere. Adrenal glands are overrated...
	9:53am Lord Jimz: The Oscar. Thurston's ecstatic peace library
	9:53am mark: joe on heroin and fentanyl same as today
	9:56am Dean: Cheapo Cheapo on Rupert Street was an amazing record store. Alas, it is no more. https://www.allinlondon.co.uk/directory/records-discs-vinyl/9922-cheapo-cheapo-records
	♥ 9:59am Joe McG: @Sam: Hope you had fun on your first show!
	♥ 10:02am Son Of Pantz: Happy 253 birthday to Napoleon Bonaparte!
	♥ 10:02am BLCKDGRD: ROXY FOREVER! thanks!
	♥ 10:04am Joe McG: Because John Cale always got cut out of the Bryan Ferry shots! :)
	♥ 10:07am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Joe and beverage bunch!
	♥ 10:11am Krys O.: Contemplating my second cup of Cafe Bustelo. I quit caffeine about 7 years ago and lost my appetite. It was extremely unpleasant. It happens rarely, but it happened to me. Never again.
	10:13am trailrunnah: I lost my appetite once… it w was the worst 10 seconds of my life.
	♥ 10:14am Passaic River Blues: This Gwenno really hitting like Welsh-language Broadcast right now. Lovely.
	♥ 10:15am Handy Haversack: Coffee and I kind of went our separate ways during the pandemic. There were no hard feelings, no big fights, no recriminations. We're just in different places now.
	♥ 10:16am Krys O.: @trailrunnah: Try almost a month of no appetite. Anything beyond a few bites of food made me nauseous.
	10:16am Hydroplane: Gwenno is so great. The Pipettes history is so misleading and should only be a fun fact AFTER someone checks it out, because it's a little mind blowing. And I love that goofy fun Pipettes album!
	♥ 10:17am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Brain Salad Surgery ftw
	10:18am Hydroplane: @Handy this is awkward but I've been seeing coffee for awhile now, even before that. Hope we can move past this like adults.
	♥ 10:19am Krys O.: ELP! Used to listen to ELP, Rick Wakeman, Tomita, Jade Warrior. I'm not afraid o' prog.
	♥ 10:19am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Oh man, now i have the urge to listen to Tarkus this afternoon.
	♥ 10:19am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...caffeine & I went our separate ways about 7 PM yesterday ? ...we're about to have great make up sex...
	10:19am trailrunnah: @Krys O. Dang, that’s long.. sorry to hear.
	♥ 10:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ELP - two ♏︎Scorpios & a bitchen drummer.
	♥ 10:21am Handy Haversack: Hydroplane, I wish you two nothing but happiness.
	10:21am trailrunnah: I had a cold brew from Laughing Man in NYC.. made it from Duane St. to 23rd St. in 4 minutes 😂.
	♥ 10:21am Jason from Houston: Good morning. Doing the sweet iced tea thing here now. I am a constantly evolving mess.
	10:21am TerrDE: Bustelo is quite good for being so cheap. ...70s Key West ...Cuban coffee was 30 cents except at a laundromat where it was 15. So we'd have 2. It literally made my eyeballs quiver
	♥ 10:21am Mike Sin: That Emerson, Lake & Palmer track was constantly played through JoeMcG's 8-track player while he cruised around in his Chevy Vega in '74. Just ask the ladies!
	♥ 10:22am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If you drink coffee before bed you can talk fast in you dreams.
	♥ 10:23am Joe McG: @Mike: I had squirrel fur on the dash. ;)
	♥ 10:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Do not need to know what squirrel fur on the dash means to appreciate it.
	♥ 10:25am Son Of Pantz: It's akin to a plastic Jesus, I believe.
	10:25am love2laf: And today I learned squirrels that 'sploot' are just fine, and I learned the word sploot. www.theguardian.com...
	♥ 10:25am karlward: Squirrel fur was introduced for the El Camino, but was offered on other Chevrolet vehicles shortly thereafter
	♥ 10:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I mean squirrel fur is usually on the dash far as I can tell...
	10:27am Mike W: [door bursts open] [i enter, skidding, and trip over the umbrella holder] [breathless] Did I miss it — did I miss Single File??
	10:28am TerrDE: @R Rabbit. We saw ELP just before Tarkus was released they did both albums, all songs. First song everyone stood, second song everyone stood on their seat, third song everyone stood on their arm rest w their arms around their neighbors for support. We stayed that way for the whole concert ,w a sitting break for Take a Pebble, then back up.
	♥ 10:28am karlward: [hands Mike W a squirrel]
	10:28am Mike W: [regards squirrel] Did I miss Single File, rabbit?
	10:29am SamTheRam: I was in paradise, yet nervous
	10:29am TerrDE: Dario Palace Theater , Providence RI
	10:34am TerrDE: that reminds me i need a new cartridge
	10:35am morphe': Hey Joe where ya going with that 45(those 45s) in yer hand?????
	10:35am TerrDE: A junior high band staple
	♥ 10:38am Matt Fiveash: Hahahaha this Swee Gee Bee is great!
	10:39am Tinley Park Randy: I’m hearing the Threes Company theme.
	♥ 10:39am Joe McG: @Matt: It's a song that was crying out for synthesizer squelches.
	♥ 10:39am chresti🎾: Hi Joe and surfies!
	10:41am HyperDose: Just got back in time for Single File with coffee in hand Hey chresti at the courts!
	♥ 10:44am Jason from Houston: Whoa... I thought I heard a little racket. Racquet? Good morning, chresti!
	♥ 10:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Racketette.
	♥ 10:46am Joe McG: Hey chresti, what's with all this pickleball talk?
	10:46am TerrDE: Willies turning those Country phrases on that one
	♥ 10:47am Handy Haversack: Gwenno sings Raquet Welsh.
	♥ 10:47am Krys O.: Pickleball is all the rage in Essex County, NJ.
	10:47am Lewis: A little bit of Dolly in Susan's voice...
	10:48am TerrDE: i thought it was Jeanie C Riley
	10:48am wendy del formaggio: Hello Joe! I’ve been digging the show today. I even got to listen in the Wendymobile on my way to work because my new car stereo has a bluetooth option. Woo hoo!
	♥ 10:49am Joe McG: Heya, Wendy! Careful, listening to WFMU in the car can be dangerous!
	♥ 10:50am Jeff Golick: This would also sound good coming out of Joe's Vega.
	♥ 10:52am chresti🎾: No Pickleball allowed at the tennis courts!
	10:52am wendy del formaggio: @Joe: uh oh! I’ll be extra-cautious! Safety first.
	♥ 10:52am Joe McG: @Jeff: If I ever do the T-shirt thing, the art has taken care of itself! @chresti: Good!
	♥ 10:52am chresti🎾: Good morning Jason!
	♥ 10:53am chresti🎾: Hey HyperD!
	10:53am wendy del formaggio: Earth Wind & Fire ❤️❤️❤️
	10:54am Joe B: I wonder if this is the first time a cut from the Sgt Pepper movie has been played on FMU
	♥ 10:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Doesn't sound like McCartney pledging his passion to Marijuana cause it opened his head. Somehow.
	♥ 10:55am Artie: Heavy Steely Dan vibes here.
	10:55am wendy del formaggio: Joe Pesci also did a great, albeit somewhat alarming, cover of this Beatles tune.
	10:55am Brendan: Digging the scene, Joe. I like how you’ve laid it all out, man. A very nice aesthetic.
	10:55am bradford: barely a crackle on this EWF 45, Joe!
	♥ 10:56am chresti🎾: I made up a song up on the way here "who's that fucker?" to the tune of "who's that lady?" when someone cut me off
	♥ 10:56am Krys O.: Hey, Joe. Ya gotta know that someone's played George Burns 'Being For the Benefit of Mr. Kite' before.
	♥ 10:57am Joe McG: @bradford: Nice clean promo copy! @Joe B.: I doubt it! Someone probably played Aerosmith or Steve Martin.
	10:57am Joe B: george burns did fixing a hole! i hate myself for knowing that ...
	♥ 10:57am chresti🎾: *although I think "who's that dummy?" might work better
	♥ 10:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Earth Wind & no Fire.' - George Clinton (allegedly)
	♥ 10:58am Artie: A Hole Only God Could Fix
	♥ 10:58am chresti🎾: I agree with George.
	♥ 10:58am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh aye. 'Dummy' in RedFox's voice.
	10:58am wendy del formaggio: @Chresti: I love it! (The “Who’s that fucker?” Thing). And I’m totally stealing your idea. It’ll come in handy for sure.
	10:59am Joe B: also, amazing version of sweet georgia brown!
	11:00am bradford: this one takes me back..
	11:00am JetBoy of Brooklyn: I don’t like to complain but Steve winwood?
	♥ 11:00am chresti🎾: Good morning wendy, you're welcome to it!
	♥ 11:00am karlward: Wendy! It was great hearing your interview of Will Oldham on Friday. For the interested: archive.org...
	11:01am Roberto: Yes. Steve Intercoursing Winwood.
	11:01am wendy del formaggio: This may have been the last (chronologically) Steve Winwood song I liked. After that, feh!
	11:01am boobby D: Kbd sounds like a kazoo ha ha ha
	♥ 11:01am Joe McG: @JetBoy: He can't be that bad, Viv Stanshall wrote lyrics for him! :)
	11:01am wendy del formaggio: Aww shucks, thanks, karlward! ❤️
	♥ 11:02am drr: The soundtrack, for me, to getting up and going to school (along with John Lennon's "Woman").
	♥ 11:02am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: That voice in this production ...a precious stone set in a stale cheeseburger...
	♥ 11:02am Handy Haversack: Looking forward to listening to that, Wendy! You're living the dream!
	♥ 11:02am Joe McG: But the guy who wrote the lyrics to this one is the same guy who wrote "Tears in Heaven," ha ha.
	♥ 11:03am Brian in UK: Talented though Steve Winwood is, if making an album where you play all the instruments, having a drummer is a good policy.
	♥ 11:03am Handy Haversack: Joes: Is it the first time a cut from the Sgt. Peppers movie has been played off a 45?
	♥ 11:03am Artie: Heavy Supertramp vibes here
	11:04am Listener Alexandra: This was probably my mom's favorite song of the 1980s. Thanks, Joe!
	♥ 11:04am Jason from Houston: [kazoo solo]
	♥ 11:04am Brian in UK: Joe, you played Arc of a Diver some time back. 'My mind is sky when I wake up' Definately Vivian.
	♥ 11:04am Bryant in TO: This feels like a good alternate for "Let My Love Open the Door" playing over the credits of a movie where a businessman learns the importance of seeing his kids or finding love.
	11:04am boobby D: Good ear, Artie
	11:04am johnk77: winwood's voice deployed more effectively earlier w/traffic? 1 of the greatest live rock singers i've ever seen;>
	♥ 11:04am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This man traded licks with Hendrix 12 years earlier.
	11:05am wendy del formaggio: Thanks, Handy! Will Oldham was very easy to talk to. I saw his show at NovaArts in Keene last night, and the conversation continued. I hope to have him on my show again when he comes back to the NE.
	11:05am Roberto: Joe plays John C. Mellencamp. Expect the unexpected.
	11:05am johnk77: also spencer davis group
	♥ 11:05am Jason from Houston: [freeze frame with father hoisting son up into the sunset]
	♥ 11:07am Brian in UK: Did he play on Electric Landlady?
	♥ 11:08am Ken From Hyde Park: Oh good, Wendy's here. I ran across a cheese-related story recently. www.carscoops.com... "NASCAR Driver Who Ran Into Cheese Sign At Road America Gets Sponsored By Sargento"
	♥ 11:08am karlward: Will Oldham from Wendy's show: "Appreciating Steely Dan is like appreciating cilantro. I think it's genetic, I don't think anybody can help whether or not they like or dislike cilantro." (Note: we learned that Oldham is on the "Steely Dan tastes like soap" side of the fence).
	11:09am johnk77: cheese is featured @roadamerica also brats national park of speed
	11:09am JetBoy of Brooklyn: Well to each their own! The beauty of WFMU.
	♥ 11:09am Matt Fiveash: Bond, Chris Bond
	♥ 11:09am Brian in UK: Is it Christian Bond? Played on Abandoned Luncheonette.
	♥ 11:09am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: You know it's a great Program when it plays bad musics & I just laugh harder ...usually. I guess.
	♥ 11:11am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @wendy del formaggio: Very cool that you saw that show. It's incredible to me that Eric's band is doing a tour with Oldham.
	11:11am TerrDE: i caught the Eric & Steve tour at the new Spectrum, Philly. Unlike Clapton's usual mellow crowd the audience had a lot of assholes for some weird reason.
	11:11am ?: He went to allll of Africa! The whole continent??? Wow
	♥ 11:11am Jason from Houston: Ken From Hyde Park! Oh shoot! LOL
	11:13am wendy del formaggio: @KenFromHP: Hahahaha! Wow! If I wanna get rid of my car, I should find a cheese billboard to plow into. Maybe I’ll get a new fromage-omobile outta it.
	♥ 11:14am karlward: Evan "Do the Bus Stop" Davies
	♥ 11:14am Handy Haversack: This is a Parisian night suit!
	11:14am wendy del formaggio: @karlward: I almost yelled out “Play ‘Deacon Blues’” last night to razz Will but I wasn’t feeling brave enough.
	11:14am Brendan: BTW the opening bass in Midnight Hour is really close to that of Lady Madonna
	♥ 11:15am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...inbetween Elvis in the Army & TheBeatles stepping foot in the Americas - that's the complete Myth...
	11:17am wendy del formaggio: @Woods: I know, right? Are you friends w Eric? I met him last night, after only emailing w him for a few weeks. Met his wife, brother, and kiddo, too. It’s so nice to go out and be in the world again post-lockdown.
	11:17am TerrDE: shoulda stopped after Out of the Frying Pan
	♥ 11:20am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @wendy del formaggio: Yes, I used to live close to Peterborough. We met when I went into the record shop in the Toadstool and said to the tattooed man behind the counter that whoever is stocking the jazz is doing a fantastic job. "That's me!" he said. We've been friends ever since, going back to 2004. Really nice folks. He appears to be knocking it out of the park with this Nova Arts thing. That's one of the few things I miss about New Hampshire.
	♥ 11:22am Handy Haversack: I definitely want to hear the punchline for the joke this song title is setting up.
	♥ 11:23am drr: This (Taraf de Haidouks) sounds like the Simpsons is coming on in another country.
	11:23am wendy del formaggio: @Woods: Great story! I like Peterborough and loved The Thing. Yes, Nova is kicking ass and making Keene a much cooler place. And lucky for me it’s only a 30-minute drive from my house.
	11:25am lazy pierogi: <333!
	♥ 11:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Actually had a pleasant time once @ a Keene open-air Festival - bands sprinkled throughout the college town all day. A pleasant time. In New Hampshire.
	♥ 11:27am Joe McG: Wakey-wakey!
	♥ 11:28am Brian in UK: It must have been a white raven.
	11:28am Itzall Hear: That stork's sounding a little bit Siouxie & The Banshees in parts. Golly, jeepers...
	♥ 11:29am Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): expert-level hammer dulcimer there...
	♥ 11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This is like Olympic hammered dulcimer. Had his coffees I reckon.
	11:29am Hi from Holland: Aloha! This is nice - but should you want a bit more oomph with your accordion music I can recommend Igorr: * Houmous recording https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1U-1h0_ifOc * Cheval https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZzYxGZ7Hmc
	♥ 11:29am Webhamster Henry: Cimbalom mastery! lots with the dampers down too.
	♥ 11:30am Joe McG: @Holland: Thanks for the recommendation!
	11:31am Hi from Holland: You're welcome - it is one of those 'WTF is this' bands, but I love it.
	♥ 11:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 👏
	♥ 11:31am Stanley: Hi Joe Woot! Mailman at the door just now with the Swag. Thanks guys!
	♥ 11:32am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ Toast Ye All with the DeathWishCoffeez ~ ...but most of all these motherfunctioners.
	♥ 11:33am Jeff Golick: I think I need a cigarette after all that.
	♥ 11:33am Handy Haversack: Happy SWAGVENT, Stanley!
	♥ 11:33am Joe McG: @Jeff: HA HA HA @Stanley: Happy you got it today!
	♥ 11:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...coffeez & cigarette...

	♥ 9:03am DjLorraine: Oh oh oh Joe Joe Joe!
	♥ 9:04am McGroovey: I have to come clean and admit that this aliens intro scares me, like the flying monkeys in the Wizard of Oz, and I know it's supposed to make me laugh.
	♥ 9:04am Handy Haversack: Yip! there it is! Hey, Joe and all.
	9:04am PuraVida: Tuning in just in time for Rosemary Clooney & Bing Crosby. Gonna be a great day.
	♥ 9:04am Son Of Pantz: Good morning!

	9:05am Danny C: Buongiorno Giuseppe! Listening live for a change!
	♥ 9:05am Webhamster Henry: @McGroovie it's lots less threatening if you see the original video www.youtube.com...
	9:06am Robm: Never thought I would hear bing and rosemary clooney on this station
	♥ 9:06am Webhamster Henry: Hey Surface noisers! I got my WFMU Swag delivery and am wearing my WFMU apron, but can't type with the oven mitt on.
	♥ 9:06am Son Of Pantz: It's a duet day, I see.
	♥ 9:07am LastWhiteRhino: What's next?...Sonny and Cher????
	♥ 9:07am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): What's wrong with Sonny and Cher?
	♥ 9:07am Webhamster Henry: Looking for Anita O'Day's "Tea for Two" from Jazz on a SUmmer's Day...
	♥ 9:07am Rick from SC: Love the upbeat start.
	♥ 9:08am yerfriendpaul: Hey Joe, everyone! Heaven!
	9:08am John in Phoenixville: Hey Joe! I’m digging hearing Peggy Lee on your show.
	♥ 9:10am karlward: Ella Fitz into any situation
	9:10am mark/msk/denver: great start joe!!!
	♥ 9:11am yerfriendpaul: That band behind Ella. So great
	♥ 9:11am Krys O.: Greetings!
	9:11am PuraVida: Today's the anniversary of The Beatles playing Shea Stadium but that wasn't in 1958 so it doesn't fit today's theme...
	♥ 9:12am Brian in UK: Hey Joe. Some cooling rain here today.
	9:14am HyperDose: This first set is something else, Joe!
	🎸 ♥ 9:15am The Butterman: Billy Butterfield! That’s my kinda butter!

	9:16am Deano de los Muertos: Good timing with this one, Joe ☕️
	9:16am Tom from Stirling.: Rosemary, Peggy, Ella, Dottie. They just dont make 'em like that anymore. And Carmen. C'mon.
	♥ 9:17am yerfriendpaul: Proud to say my dad accompanied Carmen McCrae on piano one evening
	9:17am Lord Jimz: and Vaughan
	9:18am John in Phoenixville: I thought I had everything by Carmen McRae, but I’ve never heard this track! Thanks for hipping me to it, Joe. Sounds like it’s from her Columbia era. She’s in peak voice.
	♥ 9:18am McGroovey: I went and googled around to figure out when the Sesame Street aliens radio skit was first broadcast, to see whether scared me when I was little or something. But no, it was 1979. I was 16, and (more importantly) when I was a teenager I was living beyond the range of any PBS station. So maybe it's just Fear of Mondays.
	♥ 9:19am Krys O.: I know it's wrong, but I can't help but think of Stan Freberg when I hear Johnnie Ray.
	♥ 9:19am listener james from westwood: Poor old Johnnie Ray.
	9:20am Lord Jimz: Oh I see What you mean, Tom. Just got here.
	🎸 ♥ 9:21am Strandlund: Got any Frankie Laine in your back pocket Joe?
	9:21am Brooklyn Clay: John, you've prob heard it, but “Live At The Dug,” where she’s just playing piano and singing, is just fabulous
	♥ 9:22am Webhamster Henry: I like that bit in the beginning of Grace of My Heart where Edna gets that news that record companies are no longer interested in girl singers of the kind being highlighted in this set.
	♥ 9:23am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Modern jazz singers I love: Cassandra Wilson, Esperanza Spalding, Diana Krall, Madeleine Peyroux. I'm sure there are others but I'm too full of Monday to think straight.
	♥ 9:24am common: hello joe, all
	9:24am Brooklyn Clay: Be on the lookout for Samara Joy, the next great singer in that line
	♥ 9:25am Webhamster Henry: Pearl was a class act!
	9:25am John in Phoenixville: @Brooklyn Clay: You’re right! Thanks for the reminder that it’s on there too. Haven’t listened to that one in a while. Will have to “dug” it out.
	9:26am Tom from Stirling.: @Woods: they're okay, I suppose. Can't compare to these greats Joe's playing now. These voices are like bells ringing. Or something
	9:26am Lord Jimz: Super Set, Joebro
	♥ 9:26am Baja Joe: Hello Joe. This set is wonderful.
	9:26am MplsCoco: Morning Joe! 🌞❤️
	♥ 9:26am Marley P. Dogg: Morning Joe and friends
	9:27am John in Phoenixville: @Brooklyn Clay: Sorry, got confused there for a moment. Got it. That song is not on the Dug, but I agree that it’s a fantastic record!
	♥ 9:27am yerfriendpaul: I got a chance to meet Tony Bennet and I asked him what was the first record he owned that he couldn’t get enough of. He answered Mel Tormé and the Meltones
	♥ 9:27am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Brooklyn Clay: Thanks for that. I just listened to 15 seconds of her doing "Stardust" and boom, she goes right to the Bandcamp wishlist.
	9:28am HyperDose: These vocal inflections are quite pleasing
	9:28am Tom from Stirling.: Who said WFMU doesn't play good music?
	♥ 9:28am Asheville Jon: what a nice set to be listening to while having a casual breakfast with my kids. thanks Joe!
	♥ 9:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Some Like It Temperately Warm ...also too full of Monday but let's Swing that mighty load like the horse Ella Mae Morse rode in on...
	9:28am Deano de los Muertos: The Velvet Fog
	♥ 9:29am Webhamster Henry: You ought to sneak in some Postmodern Jukebox at the end here.
	♥ 9:29am Krys O.: Mel's collaboration with Was (Not Was), Zazz Turned Blue is a gem.
	9:29am Tom from Stirling.: Up next, Perry Como? Hope so.
	♥ 9:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Propeller plane era timbres.
	9:31am John in Phoenixville: @ Joe McG: I feel like this set was commissioned for me.
	♥ 9:32am Handy Haversack: End of the road for a heck of a set!
	9:32am HyperDose: Absolutely nailed that first set 🎯 Monday is off to a great start!
	♥ 9:32am Webhamster Henry: @Krys O. I sing Zaz Turned Blue a whole lot.
	9:32am word: Really digging this set Joe
	9:33am word: Like wow
	9:35am TerrDE: twice the Joes, double the great music
	♥ 9:36am The Oscar: "Blue Suede Lips" is begging to be used as the title of something or other.
	9:36am TerrDE: i guess theres no Mel T sings Carl P
	♥ 9:36am McGroovey: My dad would know which orchestra was on that. He had encyclopedic knowledge of records of this era.
	9:37am trailrunnah: Goofis.. I’m totally stealing that. 😂
	9:38am John in Phoenixville: I think “The Kay Starr Style” was a “pick-up” album of singles (and maybe leftovers), hence all the arrangers. Harold Mooney did that track.
	♥ 9:39am Webhamster Henry: "The Gentleman Is a Dope" is a show tune from the Roger & Hammerstein flop "Allegro". This has been an Acid Jazz Hands moment.
	♥ 9:39am karlward: Joe on coffee: plays all noise punk
	9:42am HyperDose: I bet Greg from Zone 5 probably has a 3hr HxC punk show in the can
	9:42am TerrDE: There once was a Goofis named Mel. Who thought Rock and Roll was from Hell. His Jazz he would sing. The lyrics he'd wing... Was he right ? Time refuses to tell.
	9:44am msk: joe on coffee flamenco and gamellan joe on décaf. all twisted sister and Iron Maiden sprinkle bêla bartok
	♥ 9:44am karlward: Now I am wondering how much coffee Creamo drinks, and whether a lack of coffee would make Creamo play all late fifties pop standards
	♥ 9:44am The Oscar: Question for the WFMU hivemind: does anyone have any good record-shopping recs for London? Going for the first time in a couple of days, and looking forward to doing some digging!
	9:45am the illuminated void: working with all el Salvador crew today. I'm not fluent in Spanish..I'm sure they will appreciate music
	♥ 9:47am karlward: The Oscar: Years and years ago I found great stuff at Rough Trade West London, blog.roughtrade.com...
	9:48am Tom from Stirling.: Won't you come home, Pearl Bailey Won't you come home?
	9:48am mark/denver: joe on ketamine continuous loop quentin tarantino best scenes
	♥ 9:51am Joe McG: I like that you are all imagining me wired on substances.
	9:51am SamTheRam: Thanks for getting my morning started right Joe
	9:51am mark: pretty good Michael pollan on quitting coffee for 3 months...14 minute joe rogan interview-- good history
	♥ 9:52am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...all the caffeine I can get from anywhere. Adrenal glands are overrated...
	9:53am Lord Jimz: The Oscar. Thurston's ecstatic peace library
	9:53am mark: joe on heroin and fentanyl same as today
	9:56am Dean: Cheapo Cheapo on Rupert Street was an amazing record store. Alas, it is no more. https://www.allinlondon.co.uk/directory/records-discs-vinyl/9922-cheapo-cheapo-records
	♥ 9:59am Joe McG: @Sam: Hope you had fun on your first show!
	♥ 10:02am Son Of Pantz: Happy 253 birthday to Napoleon Bonaparte!
	♥ 10:02am BLCKDGRD: ROXY FOREVER! thanks!
	♥ 10:04am Joe McG: Because John Cale always got cut out of the Bryan Ferry shots! :)
	♥ 10:07am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Joe and beverage bunch!
	♥ 10:11am Krys O.: Contemplating my second cup of Cafe Bustelo. I quit caffeine about 7 years ago and lost my appetite. It was extremely unpleasant. It happens rarely, but it happened to me. Never again.
	10:13am trailrunnah: I lost my appetite once… it w was the worst 10 seconds of my life.
	♥ 10:14am Passaic River Blues: This Gwenno really hitting like Welsh-language Broadcast right now. Lovely.
	♥ 10:15am Handy Haversack: Coffee and I kind of went our separate ways during the pandemic. There were no hard feelings, no big fights, no recriminations. We're just in different places now.
	♥ 10:16am Krys O.: @trailrunnah: Try almost a month of no appetite. Anything beyond a few bites of food made me nauseous.
	10:16am Hydroplane: Gwenno is so great. The Pipettes history is so misleading and should only be a fun fact AFTER someone checks it out, because it's a little mind blowing. And I love that goofy fun Pipettes album!
	♥ 10:17am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Brain Salad Surgery ftw
	10:18am Hydroplane: @Handy this is awkward but I've been seeing coffee for awhile now, even before that. Hope we can move past this like adults.
	♥ 10:19am Krys O.: ELP! Used to listen to ELP, Rick Wakeman, Tomita, Jade Warrior. I'm not afraid o' prog.
	♥ 10:19am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Oh man, now i have the urge to listen to Tarkus this afternoon.
	♥ 10:19am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...caffeine & I went our separate ways about 7 PM yesterday ? ...we're about to have great make up sex...
	10:19am trailrunnah: @Krys O. Dang, that’s long.. sorry to hear.
	♥ 10:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ELP - two ♏︎Scorpios & a bitchen drummer.
	♥ 10:21am Handy Haversack: Hydroplane, I wish you two nothing but happiness.
	10:21am trailrunnah: I had a cold brew from Laughing Man in NYC.. made it from Duane St. to 23rd St. in 4 minutes 😂.
	♥ 10:21am Jason from Houston: Good morning. Doing the sweet iced tea thing here now. I am a constantly evolving mess.
	10:21am TerrDE: Bustelo is quite good for being so cheap. ...70s Key West ...Cuban coffee was 30 cents except at a laundromat where it was 15. So we'd have 2. It literally made my eyeballs quiver
	♥ 10:21am Mike Sin: That Emerson, Lake & Palmer track was constantly played through JoeMcG's 8-track player while he cruised around in his Chevy Vega in '74. Just ask the ladies!
	♥ 10:22am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If you drink coffee before bed you can talk fast in you dreams.
	♥ 10:23am Joe McG: @Mike: I had squirrel fur on the dash. ;)
	♥ 10:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Do not need to know what squirrel fur on the dash means to appreciate it.
	♥ 10:25am Son Of Pantz: It's akin to a plastic Jesus, I believe.

	10:28am TerrDE: @R Rabbit. We saw ELP just before Tarkus was released they did both albums, all songs. First song everyone stood, second song everyone stood on their seat, third song everyone stood on their arm rest w their arms around their neighbors for support. We stayed that way for the whole concert ,w a sitting break for Take a Pebble, then back up.

	♥ 10:46am Joe McG: Hey chresti, what's with all this pickleball talk?
	10:46am TerrDE: Willies turning those Country phrases on that one
	♥ 10:47am Handy Haversack: Gwenno sings Raquet Welsh.
	♥ 10:47am Krys O.: Pickleball is all the rage in Essex County, NJ.
	10:47am Lewis: A little bit of Dolly in Susan's voice...
	10:48am TerrDE: i thought it was Jeanie C Riley
	10:48am wendy del formaggio: Hello Joe! I’ve been digging the show today. I even got to listen in the Wendymobile on my way to work because my new car stereo has a bluetooth option. Woo hoo!
	♥ 10:49am Joe McG: Heya, Wendy! Careful, listening to WFMU in the car can be dangerous!
	♥ 10:50am Jeff Golick: This would also sound good coming out of Joe's Vega.
	♥ 10:52am chresti🎾: No Pickleball allowed at the tennis courts!
	10:52am wendy del formaggio: @Joe: uh oh! I’ll be extra-cautious! Safety first.

	10:54am Joe B: I wonder if this is the first time a cut from the Sgt Pepper movie has been played on FMU
	♥ 10:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Doesn't sound like McCartney pledging his passion to Marijuana cause it opened his head. Somehow.
	♥ 10:55am Artie: Heavy Steely Dan vibes here.
	10:55am wendy del formaggio: Joe Pesci also did a great, albeit somewhat alarming, cover of this Beatles tune.
	10:55am Brendan: Digging the scene, Joe. I like how you’ve laid it all out, man. A very nice aesthetic.
	10:55am bradford: barely a crackle on this EWF 45, Joe!
	♥ 10:56am chresti🎾: I made up a song up on the way here "who's that fucker?" to the tune of "who's that lady?" when someone cut me off
	♥ 10:56am Krys O.: Hey, Joe. Ya gotta know that someone's played George Burns 'Being For the Benefit of Mr. Kite' before.
	♥ 10:57am Joe McG: @bradford: Nice clean promo copy! @Joe B.: I doubt it! Someone probably played Aerosmith or Steve Martin.
	10:57am Joe B: george burns did fixing a hole! i hate myself for knowing that ...
	♥ 10:57am chresti🎾: *although I think "who's that dummy?" might work better
	♥ 10:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Earth Wind & no Fire.' - George Clinton (allegedly)
	♥ 10:58am Artie: A Hole Only God Could Fix
	♥ 10:58am chresti🎾: I agree with George.
	♥ 10:58am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh aye. 'Dummy' in RedFox's voice.
	10:58am wendy del formaggio: @Chresti: I love it! (The “Who’s that fucker?” Thing). And I’m totally stealing your idea. It’ll come in handy for sure.
	10:59am Joe B: also, amazing version of sweet georgia brown!
	11:00am bradford: this one takes me back..
	11:00am JetBoy of Brooklyn: I don’t like to complain but Steve winwood?
	♥ 11:00am chresti🎾: Good morning wendy, you're welcome to it!
	♥ 11:00am karlward: Wendy! It was great hearing your interview of Will Oldham on Friday. For the interested: archive.org...
	11:01am Roberto: Yes. Steve Intercoursing Winwood.
	11:01am wendy del formaggio: This may have been the last (chronologically) Steve Winwood song I liked. After that, feh!
	11:01am boobby D: Kbd sounds like a kazoo ha ha ha
	♥ 11:01am Joe McG: @JetBoy: He can't be that bad, Viv Stanshall wrote lyrics for him! :)
	11:01am wendy del formaggio: Aww shucks, thanks, karlward! ❤️
	♥ 11:02am drr: The soundtrack, for me, to getting up and going to school (along with John Lennon's "Woman").
	♥ 11:02am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: That voice in this production ...a precious stone set in a stale cheeseburger...
	♥ 11:02am Handy Haversack: Looking forward to listening to that, Wendy! You're living the dream!
	♥ 11:02am Joe McG: But the guy who wrote the lyrics to this one is the same guy who wrote "Tears in Heaven," ha ha.
	♥ 11:03am Brian in UK: Talented though Steve Winwood is, if making an album where you play all the instruments, having a drummer is a good policy.
	♥ 11:03am Handy Haversack: Joes: Is it the first time a cut from the Sgt. Peppers movie has been played off a 45?
	♥ 11:03am Artie: Heavy Supertramp vibes here
	11:04am Listener Alexandra: This was probably my mom's favorite song of the 1980s. Thanks, Joe!
	♥ 11:04am Jason from Houston: [kazoo solo]
	♥ 11:04am Brian in UK: Joe, you played Arc of a Diver some time back. 'My mind is sky when I wake up' Definately Vivian.
	♥ 11:04am Bryant in TO: This feels like a good alternate for "Let My Love Open the Door" playing over the credits of a movie where a businessman learns the importance of seeing his kids or finding love.
	11:04am boobby D: Good ear, Artie
	11:04am johnk77: winwood's voice deployed more effectively earlier w/traffic? 1 of the greatest live rock singers i've ever seen;>
	♥ 11:04am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This man traded licks with Hendrix 12 years earlier.
	11:05am wendy del formaggio: Thanks, Handy! Will Oldham was very easy to talk to. I saw his show at NovaArts in Keene last night, and the conversation continued. I hope to have him on my show again when he comes back to the NE.
	11:05am Roberto: Joe plays John C. Mellencamp. Expect the unexpected.
	11:05am johnk77: also spencer davis group
	♥ 11:05am Jason from Houston: [freeze frame with father hoisting son up into the sunset]
	♥ 11:07am Brian in UK: Did he play on Electric Landlady?
	♥ 11:08am Ken From Hyde Park: Oh good, Wendy's here. I ran across a cheese-related story recently. www.carscoops.com... "NASCAR Driver Who Ran Into Cheese Sign At Road America Gets Sponsored By Sargento"
	♥ 11:08am karlward: Will Oldham from Wendy's show: "Appreciating Steely Dan is like appreciating cilantro. I think it's genetic, I don't think anybody can help whether or not they like or dislike cilantro." (Note: we learned that Oldham is on the "Steely Dan tastes like soap" side of the fence).
	11:09am johnk77: cheese is featured @roadamerica also brats national park of speed
	11:09am JetBoy of Brooklyn: Well to each their own! The beauty of WFMU.
	♥ 11:09am Matt Fiveash: Bond, Chris Bond
	♥ 11:09am Brian in UK: Is it Christian Bond? Played on Abandoned Luncheonette.
	♥ 11:09am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: You know it's a great Program when it plays bad musics & I just laugh harder ...usually. I guess.
	♥ 11:11am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @wendy del formaggio: Very cool that you saw that show. It's incredible to me that Eric's band is doing a tour with Oldham.
	11:11am TerrDE: i caught the Eric & Steve tour at the new Spectrum, Philly. Unlike Clapton's usual mellow crowd the audience had a lot of assholes for some weird reason.
	11:11am ?: He went to allll of Africa! The whole continent??? Wow
	♥ 11:11am Jason from Houston: Ken From Hyde Park! Oh shoot! LOL
	11:13am wendy del formaggio: @KenFromHP: Hahahaha! Wow! If I wanna get rid of my car, I should find a cheese billboard to plow into. Maybe I’ll get a new fromage-omobile outta it.
	♥ 11:14am karlward: Evan "Do the Bus Stop" Davies
	♥ 11:14am Handy Haversack: This is a Parisian night suit!
	11:14am wendy del formaggio: @karlward: I almost yelled out “Play ‘Deacon Blues’” last night to razz Will but I wasn’t feeling brave enough.
	11:14am Brendan: BTW the opening bass in Midnight Hour is really close to that of Lady Madonna
	♥ 11:15am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...inbetween Elvis in the Army & TheBeatles stepping foot in the Americas - that's the complete Myth...
	11:17am wendy del formaggio: @Woods: I know, right? Are you friends w Eric? I met him last night, after only emailing w him for a few weeks. Met his wife, brother, and kiddo, too. It’s so nice to go out and be in the world again post-lockdown.
	11:17am TerrDE: shoulda stopped after Out of the Frying Pan
	♥ 11:20am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @wendy del formaggio: Yes, I used to live close to Peterborough. We met when I went into the record shop in the Toadstool and said to the tattooed man behind the counter that whoever is stocking the jazz is doing a fantastic job. "That's me!" he said. We've been friends ever since, going back to 2004. Really nice folks. He appears to be knocking it out of the park with this Nova Arts thing. That's one of the few things I miss about New Hampshire.
	♥ 11:22am Handy Haversack: I definitely want to hear the punchline for the joke this song title is setting up.
	♥ 11:23am drr: This (Taraf de Haidouks) sounds like the Simpsons is coming on in another country.
	11:23am wendy del formaggio: @Woods: Great story! I like Peterborough and loved The Thing. Yes, Nova is kicking ass and making Keene a much cooler place. And lucky for me it’s only a 30-minute drive from my house.
	11:25am lazy pierogi: <333!
	♥ 11:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Actually had a pleasant time once @ a Keene open-air Festival - bands sprinkled throughout the college town all day. A pleasant time. In New Hampshire.
	♥ 11:27am Joe McG: Wakey-wakey!
	♥ 11:28am Brian in UK: It must have been a white raven.
	11:28am Itzall Hear: That stork's sounding a little bit Siouxie & The Banshees in parts. Golly, jeepers...
	♥ 11:29am Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): expert-level hammer dulcimer there...
	♥ 11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This is like Olympic hammered dulcimer. Had his coffees I reckon.
	11:29am Hi from Holland: Aloha! This is nice - but should you want a bit more oomph with your accordion music I can recommend Igorr: * Houmous recording https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1U-1h0_ifOc * Cheval https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZzYxGZ7Hmc
	♥ 11:29am Webhamster Henry: Cimbalom mastery! lots with the dampers down too.

	11:36am Mike W.: it’s klez-manic
	♥ 11:37am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): It's the Eddie Van Halen of the hammered dulcimer
	♥ 11:37am Stanley: Joe - it was very quick. Handy - I've laid it all out, so I can roll in it!
	♥ 11:37am Jason from Houston: Dance with me, Handy!
	♥ 11:38am queems: wow what a banger
	♥ 11:38am Handy Haversack: I'm at critical mass, T-shirt-wise. There will be a reckoning when our SWAG arrives! Tango to an asphalt, Jason!
	11:38am Brendan: I don’t know if spontaneous human combustion is a real thing but if it is, that tune just induced it.
	11:39am Brendan: Russian kick dancing everybody!
	♥ 11:39am Jason from Houston: Ohhhh my gosh... This is divine.

	♥ 11:44am Krys O.: Such a great show, Joe. I'm reminded somewhat of hearing the Muzak speed up in the afternoons to keep us productive when I was a bank teller during summer vacations in college.
	11:44am wendy del formaggio: Bulgarian feta is really good, esp if you like your feta to bite back.
	♥ 11:44am Krys O.: Ooh, nice tip, Wendy. Thanks! Hope you're well.
	♥ 11:46am Brian in UK: wendy, you bet. the sheeps feta comes in large ice cream size boxes. Not seen it for ages, you just reminded me. Used to get in a Turkish shop.
	11:47am wendy del formaggio: Hi Krys O! I am quite well, thank you. Hope you can say the same.
	11:47am slugluv1313: hi Krys O.! SO COOL!!! 😺😺😺 (still gotta dig deeper, do the DNA thing, etc. myself -- after my Mom died, i found out that my family history is even more convoluted than i originally thought!)

	♥ 11:49am Krys O.: Hanging in there, Wendy. Thanks.
	♥ 11:50am Joe McG: If you are all still speculating on what substances I do my radio show on, you should probably go with speed for this set.
	11:50am Brendan: Good for shampooing, beating an egg, making whipped cream or other perverse acts they require a frenzied lather.
	11:50am Mike W.: Is he gonna slam us into the wall at this velocity
	♥ 11:51am Handy Haversack: To the butter churns!
	11:51am Brendan: If he keeps playing like that, he’s going to win that shiny fiddle made of gold.
	11:51am Pax: I just figured that you're 33 and a third setting was broken, so now you're playing them on 45 RPM
	11:52am rw: I've been thinking it's Tuesday and wondering what the heck Matt Warwick is doing. But it's MONDAY! Thank you Joe!! You're the best.
