	2:55pm Gus Bodenheim: While I may not be able to participate in this afternoon's colloquy, I am behoven to stop in early and add my "two bits" to your paean to Brother Cleve. A stout-hearted scamp of the first order, he will be missed, and I will toast his memory tonight with a rum cocktail he taught me to make. Cheers to one and all, and a fond farewell, good Cleve.

	♥ 3:02pm iiibeat: The operation took place at night. Israeli transport planes carried 100 commandos over 4,000 kilometres (2,500 mi) to Uganda for the rescue operation. The operation, which took a week of planning, lasted 90 minutes. Of the 106 remaining hostages, 102 were rescued and three were killed. The other hostage was in a hospital and was later killed. Five Israeli commandos were wounded, and one, unit commander Lt. Col. Yonatan Netanyahu, was killed. Netanyahu was the older brother of Benjamin Netanyahu, who would later become Prime Minister of Israel.

	3:05pm JetBoy now of Astoria: Hi all! Glad you are back on Wednesdays Irwin.
	3:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: *Formerly Known ...whatever.
	3:05pm wendy del formaggio: Hello Irwin. Welcome back to Wendysday.
	🎸 ♥ 3:06pm Hoboken Jack: Hello Irwin, Spodi, Handy, Prince Consort Bagpipe, all royals and all Muggles
	3:06pm Tom from Stirling: Brother Cleve looks like Hearty White and/or Bill Nelson (Bebop Deluxe).
	🎸 ♥ 3:07pm spodiodi: howdy, Jack!
	🎸 ♥ 3:07pm DjLorraine: Was EFD's sceptor also up against the clock. Clock strikes three.
	3:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...ya pays yer money ya takes yer Chusid... It is abundantly evident from a single photograph that Bro. Cleve was a Dude & a Half.
	♥ 3:07pm Andrew_in_WI: My bar-buddy just got a middle school choir teaching gig... ima buy her a copy of the Langley Schools thingy
	♥ 3:08pm Handy Haversack: You come for the king, you best not miss.
	♥ 3:08pm Various Julius: E just handed his Wednesday crown to him.
	3:09pm Phillip: Gus boudenheim must be wondering "this is not Friday" what's going on.
	♥ 3:09pm Irwin: Crown's a bit ... roomy. EFD has a larger-than-thou cranium.
	3:09pm Androu B.: Hi, RevRab! 🐰💣♏
	🎸 ♥ 3:10pm rrg: Fans of Duke's: I've now sampled this southern speciality in a tuna sandwich (on sourdough toast topped with grated and grilled Seaside Cheddar cheese) that I made with my own two hands. And I say: it's worthy. I still prefer the slightly sweeter taste of Hellmann's, but we'll be using the Duke's at least until it runs out, and then we'll decide whether to include it in the mix going forward.
	♥ 3:10pm coelacanth∅: Welcome back to wednesdays Irwin!
	♥ 3:11pm luka: they were doin free Duke’s tattoos at a shop here in Richmond. would.
	🎸 ♥ 3:11pm Phillippe: Howdy!
	🎸 ♥ 3:11pm rrg: Hi, Jack and LL! And all you other people too.
	♥ 3:11pm Irwin: For those wondering, rrg's "Duke's" nod references a mayo debate carried over from my formerly Friday fracas.
	3:12pm Laura L: Finally, after all this time waiting for Irwin to return to Wednesdays, we can stop calling it WHENsday and we can just resume calling it Wednesday.
	3:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If that's an envelope follower - a better use of it than that hippie cult gittarist all the time...
	3:13pm Androu B.: Oh yes, glad to have you back in the mid-week spot, Irwin!
	🎸 ♥ 3:13pm Phillippe: Duke's with a little Lea and Perrins is all you need on a roast beef sammidge
	3:14pm Androu B.: Slap dat bass fiddle!
	🎸 ♥ 3:15pm rrg: I won't get into a religious war with you, Phillippe. But mustard is much to be preferred to mayonnaise (of any brand) on a roast beef sarnie.
	3:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Bitches Brew' with a little less 1969 cannabis what have you ...nice.
	3:16pm brainiac: Big welcome back to the dean of 'FMU. Missed you, Irwin. So nice to have you back doing your show.
	♥ 3:16pm Andrew_in_WI: With "Gupta" and "Ghana" I was expecting something more exotic, but this is great
	3:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mustard over most any condiment / sandwich adhesive.
	3:18pm Androu B.: @RevRab - Are you familiar with Omega Mart in LV?
	3:18pm brainiac: Miracle Whip would like a word with you
	🎸 ♥ 3:19pm 12539: Irwin! I have nothing more to say.
	3:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: What's an LV ?
	♥ 3:19pm Hughie Considine: What condiment serves a bialy best?
	3:19pm Androu B.: Las Vegas
	3:20pm Tom from Stirling: Agree, Heartless Bastards are good too.
	3:20pm brainiac: Horsey sauce?
	♥ 3:20pm Handy Haversack: I just had Tofurky on toasted sourdough with spinach, onion, Vegannaise, and Dijon mustard. Mighty fine. Hughie: According to college-age Handy, who would grab three Kossar's hot bialys and carry them around all day as his daily caloric intake: pocket lint.
	🎸 ♥ 3:21pm Phillippe: You know what they say, rrg: Never bring a mustard to a mayo fight.
	♥ 3:21pm Carmichael: Lost Wages.
	♥ 3:21pm Andrew_in_WI: Oneida. My tribe. Kid Millions on drums
	3:22pm Tom from Stirling: This crazy Oneida song is just crazy. Crazy good.
	3:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @Androu: Never got further north on the west coast than some obscure upper bits of CA - despite my 16 years out there.
	♥ 3:23pm Hughie Considine: Oy, @handy! As a Kossar's enthusiast, that sounds painful. I make my own bialys and stick to the classic deli spreads exclusively.
	3:24pm brainiac: @Carmichael: Is that the Schmenge Brothers featured in your profile pic, or are you happy to see us?
	3:24pm Androu B.: @RevRab - Las Vegas is in Nevada, dubbed "Sin City". I'm shocked you've never heard of it!
	3:24pm ryansterlingvirtue: Damn, loving this show already!
	3:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I seem to recall some author or other referring to Loathing or something ...wait - it's not all that North is it ...back to geography class ...look I'm in a tiny little state north of northeast of nowhere now...
	♥ 3:26pm Handy Haversack: I think they were 35 cents a piece back then, Hughie. All the nutrients a growing Handy needs!
	♥ 3:26pm Carmichael: Indeed the Schmenges, brainiac. And the Happy Wanderers are happy to see you!
	🎸 ♥ 3:27pm chris in the redwoods: Brother Cleve seems to have been a swell chap. condolences to those who knew him. hello, everyone!
	🎸 ♥ 3:29pm Phillippe: That suit looks like sharkskin. Can't find a good sharkskin suit anywheres nowadays.
	3:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...resisting the habit of pulling a tarot card to see if I should harass your comments board or Uncle Michael's on Friday anymore ...burn that bridge when I come to it...
	🎸 ♥ 3:31pm The Oscar: Afternoon! Sad to say I never crossed paths with Brother Cleve, but we had several friends in common, and his absence is felt up here in Boston.
	3:32pm jamthecane: Afternoon everyone!
	3:33pm Androu B.: @RevRab - Oh, btw, I just heard some self-righteous Pro-#45 Marine vet wants to take over your state. Hope everyone else there who hasn't been taken in by him has the sense to act accordingly in opposing him come November.
	3:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: No! Not Eddie Cochran cover. BlackFlag ! SkateGangPunk I camped with in SantaBarbara when homeless claimed to have cowritten this. The Vicious Circle gang... There is no proof of this claim...
	3:35pm Ochre Ogre: Good day your highness Irwin, welcome back to Wednesday!
	3:36pm brainiac: Dear Carmichael: I can't wait for a more opportune moment to ask about a profile pic you sported months and months ago. It looked like Todd Rundgren on stage at a Hawaiian backyard luau with some local musicians ... Does this ring a bell? And if so, what can you tell me about that shot?
	🎸 ♥ 3:36pm officina: Good to have you back on the throne Irwin.
	♥ 3:37pm Carmichael: Hmmm, I can't recall. I'll look through my photos.
	♥ 3:37pm Handy Haversack: Really interesting piece from Imbibe. Sorry for your loss, Irwin.
	♥ 3:38pm Handy Haversack: (It wasn't from when Carmichael saw Richard Thompson a few weeks back? That's what I thought at the time. I think. If we're all paying too much attention to the same bit of chatboard trivia.)
	🎸 ♥ 3:40pm Phillippe: "staph" announcer?
	3:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...unless you want actually be kicked in the side...
	3:40pm brainiac: Handyman, naw, this was quite some time ago. Looked like an outdoor shindig.
	3:41pm egould: Rebuked!
	3:41pm tak: he would have to return all of his pay
	♥ 3:41pm Carmichael: I know what it was. Stand by ...
	♥ 3:43pm Carmichael: Is this the one?
	3:44pm brainiac: YESH! Is that TR?
	3:44pm Androu B.: "Pedantic showboating", I feel you, Gus!
	♥ 3:46pm luka: half bear, the other half cat
	3:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...no Laurel & Hardy pun presents itself, alas...
	🎸 ♥ 3:46pm AnAnonymousParty: Bet this guy is fun at parties.
	🎸 ♥ 3:47pm Ken From Hyde Park: The Arizona state flower is a cactus, I presume? 🏜️
	3:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...we might have Laurel & Handy here - but nevermind...
	♥ 3:47pm steveo: Excellent Bodenheim today. I share his concern regarding shared state symbols
	♥ 3:47pm Carmichael: Yep. I was a backstage guest at this 2001 concert at the bandshell of the now-demolished Woodlake Inn on Hwy 160. Left to right: Godfrey Townsend Mark Farner Jack Bruce Todd R Christopher Cross Alan Parsons Alan's wife (in white) and friends are on the balcony in the upper left.
	3:48pm egould: Gus’ mommy didn’t love him enough.
	3:49pm Listening Out There: Of note in the playlist photo: Senor Wences at right, Ernest Tubb bottom left...
	3:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...each Musician sporting a distinct flower we can only presume ...it's only proper...
	3:49pm brainiac: Wow, what a lineup! I always like to think of Todd in Hawaii, just hanging out. Now, adumb question: Was it a good show?
	3:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Backstage or onstage together ?
	♥ 3:51pm Handy Haversack: I was thinking maybe Alan Parsons's shirt was doing all the work of making you think it was Hawaii, brainiac!
	3:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nothing but flowers.
	♥ 3:54pm Carmichael: You're right about the question, brainiac. 😜 It was 101 during soundcheck (this was in August). I was standing onstage at the soundboard, and Bruce slogged by me muttering something like, "How do you f*cking live here?!" Alan always wears loud colors. If you watched the Beatles doc, he is on the roof off to one side wearing a yellow shirt and purple tie (or maybe the opposite).
	3:58pm brainiac: Jack was drunk as usual, I suppose. Just thinking about what that show was like gives me chills. Ol' Todd has (or had) a big house in HI. Featured in the show Live From Daryl's House with Daryl Hall years ago. It was really cool. How I'd like to live there.
	♥ 3:59pm Carmichael: He has a restaurant in HI called Tiki Aliki (or something similar). It's on my bucket list.
	4:00pm brainiac: Let's go on a field trip!
	🎸 ♥ 4:01pm AnAnonymousParty: Bob?
	♥ 4:03pm radioronan: Oh Brother Cleve died? He was a Boston & record buying legend ..as well as a great musician and exotica historian. So sorry you have lost your friend.
	4:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sincere Condolences. Clearly a unique & valuable spirit.
	🎸 ♥ 4:08pm DjLorraine: Did someone say exotica? Brother Cleve sounds and looks like fine fellow.
	♥ 4:08pm xtrakrispy: As a purveyor of geeky wine and spirits to fancy bars and restaurants, my path crossed with Brother Cleve many times. Most recently at a bar he helped open on the LES recently. That his range of experience and expertise ranged from music, to cocktails and spirits, and so many things in-between - and how many people eulogized him this week - is a testament to his eminence.
	4:09pm mark couture: Hi everybody. I made it.
	♥ 4:10pm Handy Haversack: I was thinking you must have known him, xtrakrispy.
	♥ 4:10pm steveo: I'm sorry for your loss, Irwin.
	♥ 4:11pm Andrew_in_WI: "Lush" has a few definitions
	4:12pm Androu B.: Getting back to that Curha track, I just heard what sounded like soundbites from a late-night radio show where the host would let self-proclaimed UFO eyewitnesses would let them describe their encounters over the air.
	♥ 4:14pm chresti: He was 64?
	4:16pm Dean: I bet he made it to Whittier's Oceanic Arts a time or two: https://www.laweekly.com/say-aloha-to-oceanic-arts-whittiers-tiki-wonderland/
	♥ 4:17pm Irwin: Not sure of Cleve's birth year. It's an estimate.
	4:21pm Dean: According to this, he was 66 earlier this year. So, 66 or 67. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/13/dining/drinks/lullaby-cocktail-bar-brother-cleve.html
	🎸 ♥ 4:21pm Snortley: Boston Globe says he was 67.
	♥ 4:22pm chresti: 67, so 1955
	4:22pm Laura L: Enjoyed seeing Combustible Edison play at least once in NYC a long time ago now--Brother Cleve made the world a better place.
	4:22pm mark couture: Kronos 4tet has an interesting version of MiniSkirt, I think a tribute to Esquivel et al.
	♥ 4:22pm Irwin: Thanks, Chresti. Updated.
	♥ 4:23pm coco: wonderful tribute
	4:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: To lose a friend is losing whole parts of yourself - interactions not available with any others. When an elder dies a library burns they say. Except libraries don't drink with you too...
	4:24pm Dean: Evidently, you haven't visited my library, Rev.
	4:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...well - the son of the head librarian town I grew up is the one who gave me liquid LSD ...I probly did drink with him ...anyway, my point was...
	♥ 4:27pm Handy Haversack: Lullaby NYC's Dole-whip cocktail: imbibemagazine.com...
	♥ 4:29pm xtrakrispy: @handy - Lullaby is the place I was talking about. That drink is fun!!
	♥ 4:30pm Handy Haversack: Right, xtrakrispy -- it was mentioned in what Irwin linked to. Also, clearly, I have fallen down the Imbibe rabbit hole.
	4:32pm jan: Irwin- thanks for the memories. I remember when your program introduced Combustible Edison to these ears. Still got my Combustible Edison in the collection.
	♥ 4:34pm Andrew_in_WI: "Once saw Eno give a 6-minute tambourine solo" I wish something so grand could be said as my eulogy
	🎸 ♥ 4:39pm The Oscar: I put this Barrence track on a summer mix a few years back, and now I just wish I was on my way to the beach.
	4:47pm Phillip: Combustable Edison? They still around? I loved their "carnival of souls" song
	♥ 4:49pm Irwin: I think Cleve was in L.A. visiting the other CE members and possibly discussing a reunion? Don't quote me, but I'm piecing together some disparate comments passed along.
	🎸 ♥ 4:49pm The Oscar: I met the Millionaire from CE at a film festival afterparty several years ago. As a rule I try to keep my cool when I meet celebrities, but I was so stunned that I blurted out "You're the Millionaire!"
	4:50pm Phillip: I had the "I swinger" CD. ripped it to my ipod touch a long time ago
	4:52pm Androu B.: Brother Cleve seemed to embody the term "hedonist', the kind of person that would make everything he did so genuinely extravagant by adding an exotic flair. In that sense, I can understand how much he meant to you, Irwin, and to his many other acquaintances. I could only wish I had the good fortune to meet someone with that caliber of charm and casual eloquence.
	🎸 ♥ 4:53pm spodiodi: rip, Bro Cleve
	🎸 ♥ 4:53pm karlward: I'm sorry for your loss, but damn, what a legacy
	🎸 ♥ 4:53pm 12539: Thanks for that, Irwin.
	🎸 ♥ 4:54pm Phillippe: Very nice tribute, Irwin
	♥ 4:54pm Handy Haversack: Lovely tribute, Irwin. Thanks for including us.
	4:58pm Juli: Yays
	4:59pm Ochre Ogre: Irwin- Keen tunes, sorry for your loss. His intellect and wit is evident in that photo.
	♥ 4:59pm chresti: It was really hot and humid last week in LA Thank you Irwin!
	♥ 5:01pm Handy Haversack: I am alerted.
	5:01pm BH: The EAS still works
	5:01pm brainiac: Irwin's lunching the nukes
	5:02pm brainiac: or launching, either way
	♥ 5:03pm chresti: Lunching on cukes while launching the nukes
	5:05pm Androu B.: Gotta run, folks! Thanks, Irwin, and welcome back to Wednesday! ¡Hasta la proxima, Handy!
	5:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...the right dynamics for the New Frontier however one slices it...
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: flipside AndrouB
	♥ 5:07pm Irwin: I have been advised by the DoD that the End of the World Machine WORKS.
	♥ 5:07pm Handy Haversack: ¡Adios, Androu B.! Launch the cukes.
	5:12pm Ochre Ogre: Does the End of the World Machine save the world or destroy it?
	5:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Mr. President !! We cannot allow - a cucumber gap... They say Beethoven when deaf held a hard wire between his teeth & put it on the piano & heard thru his head...
	5:12pm Laura L: Good to know in advance that the End of the World will sound so silly.
	5:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...the next World War will be fought with cucumbers...
	5:15pm Phillip: I though it was spelled Moose DeFio.
	5:16pm Thelma: Welcome back Irwin. You were missed.
	🎸 ♥ 5:17pm Phillippe: Gotta run, thanks Irwin!
	5:17pm Jennica: Great photo. Great show. xxx
	5:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: All yo la tengoed was a cucumber. & the Ukraine.
	5:20pm yippie: repo hombre
	5:20pm BH: todo lo que queria era un Pepsi?
	♥ 5:20pm Handy Haversack: Todo lo que quería era una pepsi.
	♥ 5:21pm Handy Haversack: Ha, great minds! You go to B[&]H!
	🎸 ♥ 5:21pm -жеи: A mi me gusto mucho Luicidal
	5:21pm BH: we might need to check with the Royal Academy in regards to Pepsi being masculine or feminine
	5:21pm JetBoy now of Astoria: Love this cover. Have always loved this song.
	♥ 5:22pm Handy Haversack: Oh, JetBoy, do we have an archive show for you!
	5:22pm Andres: Solo queria una Coca.
	♥ 5:22pm Carmichael: I believe, as the object of the sentence, it relates back to the gender of the subject.
	5:22pm jan: I love this cover by Luicidal; I hope they cover "I wanna watch Cartoons"
	♥ 5:22pm Carmichael: Hecho en Mexico.
	5:23pm Phillip: Wow! That's the first time I heard a,spanish version of "institutionalized"
	5:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 👏
	♥ 5:24pm Irwin: Italian, right?
	♥ 5:25pm Carmichael: I remember Stubby Kaye as the host of Shenanigans: "Well, the clock on the wall says it's time to go ..."
	♥ 5:26pm Handy Haversack: We need F0F0 for this Pepsi-gender question. Really seems like the kind of thing they could sink their teeth into.
	5:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Al Capp & John Lennon interacting is worth a cucumber or two @ least...
	5:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a Pepsi bottle seems semiotically notably androgynous to my sensibilities...
	5:28pm BH: the one thing I can recall about Spanish gender stuff in groups is that if there's a group of a million women and one man, it's masculine but if it's all women then it's feminine
	5:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yet highly sexualized...
	5:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...well not like Coke...
	5:31pm f0f0 (: Handy, She only wanted a coca (Mexican way of saying coke drink)
	5:31pm Phillip: Just looked at the time 😱 5:30 wow that went fast.
	5:33pm f0f0 (: Hi and sorry for the loss of your friend, Irwin
	🎸 ♥ 5:33pm rrg: Thomas!
	♥ 5:34pm Handy Haversack: f0f0 on the spot! ¡Gracias!
	♥ 5:34pm Roberto: Tienes razon, BH!
	♥ 5:35pm dale: tuned in late but think i'll go back and listen if it's all this insane.
	5:35pm Phillip: Still will miss Fabio on thursdays. I have my therapists group therapy at 3 now on thursdays
	5:35pm f0f0 (: BH, We would say "Una Pepsi" (feminine)
	5:36pm AD: Alan Vega sings the classics!!
	5:36pm Ochre Ogre: Wonder if Thomas is the black dude that sings/plays guitar of Beatles covers in the 123 subway tunnel.
	5:37pm Aaron-in-Philly: this is certainly something.
	5:37pm AD: Great show Irwin will be tuning in!!
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...now here's your LasVegas, big spenders...
	5:38pm Ochre Ogre: Ciao f0f0, same in Italian.
	♥ 5:38pm PigeonsAndRust: Thomas Aquinas: The Lost Tapes
	5:38pm Phillip: Something to look forward to every wednesday.
	5:41pm f0f0 (: And why is Pepsi femenine ? because is a beverage (una bebida). Probably the same happens in italy (bevita?)
	5:42pm f0f0 (: Ciao, Ochre!
	5:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...we were not doubting Thomas...
	🎸 ♥ 5:46pm rrg: Well, I'm gonna play Thomas on mine. And not just a minute, either.
	5:46pm Ochre Ogre: THOMAS and AMANDA!!
	🎸 ♥ 5:46pm rrg: I might not play Amanda.
	5:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...two poles of a battery them...
	5:47pm Dean: No resolution to the "Flaregun" mystery, but in 1996, Musician magazine, a review concluded: "I've no idea whether that's a 'real' theme, but if it's not, somebody in TV land ought to find a show to match it."
	♥ 5:48pm Irwin: This vocalist in Preoccupations reminds me of early Zappa.
	♥ 5:48pm Handy Haversack: Irwin, have you checked out more Dune since Carmichael helped solve the "Nothing Compares 2 U" mystery?
	♥ 5:49pm Irwin: Not yet, HH. But will.
	🎸 ♥ 5:49pm Fishtown Mike: Great show, Irwin! The time really flew by. Condolences on your friend, Bro. Cleve. I'll be tracking down my Combustible Edison & Del Fuegos records shortly, and raising a few in his honor.
	5:49pm Ochre Ogre: Yeah 'Freak Out' Zappa, big time.
	♥ 5:51pm Irwin: That's what I was hearing, OO.
	♥ 5:51pm dale: like this pyschy country. or country psych.
	♥ 5:52pm dale: reminds me of mckendree spring.
	♥ 5:53pm Irwin: Noel Redding's band after leaving Jimi.
	♥ 5:53pm Handy Haversack: Off to see a man about a cocktail. We'll toast Brother Cleve, Irwin. Many thanks for the tribute and the rest of the show. You were pitching on short rest, but in midseason form! Later on, everyone.
	♥ 5:53pm Irwin: He switched from bass to guitar. Not sure why he wasn't allowed to play guitar in his previous trio.
	5:54pm madmikeill: Ha ha. Great show, man. Thank you.
	5:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Vaguely MobyGrapesque. & I do not know it yet.

	5:57pm brainiac: Irwin, you're as welcome as a cool breeze on a hot day in Sacramento. Thanks for the show today.
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always Mr. DJ IDC Sir ~
	🎸 ♥ 5:58pm chris in the redwoods: thanks, Irwin!
	♥ 5:59pm radioronan: Thanks, Irwin.Cheers, Bodenheims!

Listener comments!
	♥ 9/12 8:19am Irwin: Cleve is #1.
	🎸 ♥ 11:14am rrg: In that case I'll settle for #2 this week.
	♥ 11:43am Irwin: Everyone else is watching, waiting for me to post a new playlist for this Friday.
	2:54pm Laura L: Here's to Brother Cleve now in Tiki Heaven.
	2:55pm Gus Bodenheim: While I may not be able to participate in this afternoon's colloquy, I am behoven to stop in early and add my "two bits" to your paean to Brother Cleve. A stout-hearted scamp of the first order, he will be missed, and I will toast his memory tonight with a rum cocktail he taught me to make. Cheers to one and all, and a fond farewell, good Cleve.
	♥ 3:01pm Asheville Jon: we welcome your valuable insights Gus!
	♥ 3:01pm Carmichael: Hello Irwin and friends.
	♥ 3:01pm Handy Haversack: Irwin pitching on short rest but ready to spin another gem! Happy Wednesday, all.
	3:01pm eric from lake hiawatha: Becky Honky Tonk girl owns Wednesdays
	♥ 3:02pm iiibeat: The operation took place at night. Israeli transport planes carried 100 commandos over 4,000 kilometres (2,500 mi) to Uganda for the rescue operation. The operation, which took a week of planning, lasted 90 minutes. Of the 106 remaining hostages, 102 were rescued and three were killed. The other hostage was in a hospital and was later killed. Five Israeli commandos were wounded, and one, unit commander Lt. Col. Yonatan Netanyahu, was killed. Netanyahu was the older brother of Benjamin Netanyahu, who would later become Prime Minister of Israel.
	🎸 ♥ 3:02pm Stevel: Nothing says freeform like ermine-sable. Work it efd!
	3:02pm sofa rex: wednesday is the only king of wednesday. its own sovereign day.

	3:05pm Androu B.: RIP Ramsey Lewis Good Afternoon, Irwin & everyone!
	3:05pm JetBoy now of Astoria: Hi all! Glad you are back on Wednesdays Irwin.
	3:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: *Formerly Known ...whatever.
	3:05pm wendy del formaggio: Hello Irwin. Welcome back to Wendysday.
	🎸 ♥ 3:06pm Hoboken Jack: Hello Irwin, Spodi, Handy, Prince Consort Bagpipe, all royals and all Muggles
	3:06pm Tom from Stirling: Brother Cleve looks like Hearty White and/or Bill Nelson (Bebop Deluxe).
	🎸 ♥ 3:07pm spodiodi: howdy, Jack!
	🎸 ♥ 3:07pm DjLorraine: Was EFD's sceptor also up against the clock. Clock strikes three.
	3:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...ya pays yer money ya takes yer Chusid... It is abundantly evident from a single photograph that Bro. Cleve was a Dude & a Half.
	♥ 3:07pm Andrew_in_WI: My bar-buddy just got a middle school choir teaching gig... ima buy her a copy of the Langley Schools thingy
	♥ 3:08pm Handy Haversack: You come for the king, you best not miss.
	♥ 3:08pm Various Julius: E just handed his Wednesday crown to him.
	3:09pm Phillip: Gus boudenheim must be wondering "this is not Friday" what's going on.
	♥ 3:09pm Irwin: Crown's a bit ... roomy. EFD has a larger-than-thou cranium.
	3:09pm Androu B.: Hi, RevRab! 🐰💣♏
	🎸 ♥ 3:10pm rrg: Fans of Duke's: I've now sampled this southern speciality in a tuna sandwich (on sourdough toast topped with grated and grilled Seaside Cheddar cheese) that I made with my own two hands. And I say: it's worthy. I still prefer the slightly sweeter taste of Hellmann's, but we'll be using the Duke's at least until it runs out, and then we'll decide whether to include it in the mix going forward.
	♥ 3:10pm coelacanth∅: Welcome back to wednesdays Irwin!
	♥ 3:11pm luka: they were doin free Duke’s tattoos at a shop here in Richmond. would.
	🎸 ♥ 3:11pm Phillippe: Howdy!
	🎸 ♥ 3:11pm rrg: Hi, Jack and LL! And all you other people too.
	♥ 3:11pm Irwin: For those wondering, rrg's "Duke's" nod references a mayo debate carried over from my formerly Friday fracas.
	3:12pm Laura L: Finally, after all this time waiting for Irwin to return to Wednesdays, we can stop calling it WHENsday and we can just resume calling it Wednesday.
	3:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If that's an envelope follower - a better use of it than that hippie cult gittarist all the time...
	3:13pm Androu B.: Oh yes, glad to have you back in the mid-week spot, Irwin!
	🎸 ♥ 3:13pm Phillippe: Duke's with a little Lea and Perrins is all you need on a roast beef sammidge
	3:14pm Androu B.: Slap dat bass fiddle!
	🎸 ♥ 3:15pm rrg: I won't get into a religious war with you, Phillippe. But mustard is much to be preferred to mayonnaise (of any brand) on a roast beef sarnie.
	3:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Bitches Brew' with a little less 1969 cannabis what have you ...nice.
	3:16pm brainiac: Big welcome back to the dean of 'FMU. Missed you, Irwin. So nice to have you back doing your show.
	♥ 3:16pm Andrew_in_WI: With "Gupta" and "Ghana" I was expecting something more exotic, but this is great
	3:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mustard over most any condiment / sandwich adhesive.
	3:18pm Androu B.: @RevRab - Are you familiar with Omega Mart in LV?
	3:18pm brainiac: Miracle Whip would like a word with you
	🎸 ♥ 3:19pm 12539: Irwin! I have nothing more to say.
	3:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: What's an LV ?
	♥ 3:19pm Hughie Considine: What condiment serves a bialy best?
	3:19pm Androu B.: Las Vegas
	3:20pm Tom from Stirling: Agree, Heartless Bastards are good too.
	3:20pm brainiac: Horsey sauce?
	♥ 3:20pm Handy Haversack: I just had Tofurky on toasted sourdough with spinach, onion, Vegannaise, and Dijon mustard. Mighty fine. Hughie: According to college-age Handy, who would grab three Kossar's hot bialys and carry them around all day as his daily caloric intake: pocket lint.
	🎸 ♥ 3:21pm Phillippe: You know what they say, rrg: Never bring a mustard to a mayo fight.
	♥ 3:21pm Carmichael: Lost Wages.
	♥ 3:21pm Andrew_in_WI: Oneida. My tribe. Kid Millions on drums
	3:22pm Tom from Stirling: This crazy Oneida song is just crazy. Crazy good.
	3:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @Androu: Never got further north on the west coast than some obscure upper bits of CA - despite my 16 years out there.
	♥ 3:23pm Hughie Considine: Oy, @handy! As a Kossar's enthusiast, that sounds painful. I make my own bialys and stick to the classic deli spreads exclusively.
	3:24pm brainiac: @Carmichael: Is that the Schmenge Brothers featured in your profile pic, or are you happy to see us?
	3:24pm Androu B.: @RevRab - Las Vegas is in Nevada, dubbed "Sin City". I'm shocked you've never heard of it!
	3:24pm ryansterlingvirtue: Damn, loving this show already!
	3:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I seem to recall some author or other referring to Loathing or something ...wait - it's not all that North is it ...back to geography class ...look I'm in a tiny little state north of northeast of nowhere now...
	♥ 3:26pm Handy Haversack: I think they were 35 cents a piece back then, Hughie. All the nutrients a growing Handy needs!
	♥ 3:26pm Carmichael: Indeed the Schmenges, brainiac. And the Happy Wanderers are happy to see you!
	🎸 ♥ 3:27pm chris in the redwoods: Brother Cleve seems to have been a swell chap. condolences to those who knew him. hello, everyone!
	🎸 ♥ 3:29pm Phillippe: That suit looks like sharkskin. Can't find a good sharkskin suit anywheres nowadays.
	3:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...resisting the habit of pulling a tarot card to see if I should harass your comments board or Uncle Michael's on Friday anymore ...burn that bridge when I come to it...
	🎸 ♥ 3:31pm The Oscar: Afternoon! Sad to say I never crossed paths with Brother Cleve, but we had several friends in common, and his absence is felt up here in Boston.
	3:32pm jamthecane: Afternoon everyone!
	3:33pm Androu B.: @RevRab - Oh, btw, I just heard some self-righteous Pro-#45 Marine vet wants to take over your state. Hope everyone else there who hasn't been taken in by him has the sense to act accordingly in opposing him come November.
	3:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: No! Not Eddie Cochran cover. BlackFlag ! SkateGangPunk I camped with in SantaBarbara when homeless claimed to have cowritten this. The Vicious Circle gang... There is no proof of this claim...
	3:35pm Ochre Ogre: Good day your highness Irwin, welcome back to Wednesday!
	3:36pm brainiac: Dear Carmichael: I can't wait for a more opportune moment to ask about a profile pic you sported months and months ago. It looked like Todd Rundgren on stage at a Hawaiian backyard luau with some local musicians ... Does this ring a bell? And if so, what can you tell me about that shot?
	🎸 ♥ 3:36pm officina: Good to have you back on the throne Irwin.
	♥ 3:37pm Carmichael: Hmmm, I can't recall. I'll look through my photos.
	♥ 3:37pm Handy Haversack: Really interesting piece from Imbibe. Sorry for your loss, Irwin.
	♥ 3:38pm Handy Haversack: (It wasn't from when Carmichael saw Richard Thompson a few weeks back? That's what I thought at the time. I think. If we're all paying too much attention to the same bit of chatboard trivia.)
	🎸 ♥ 3:40pm Phillippe: "staph" announcer?
	3:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...unless you want actually be kicked in the side...
	3:40pm brainiac: Handyman, naw, this was quite some time ago. Looked like an outdoor shindig.
	3:41pm egould: Rebuked!
	3:41pm tak: he would have to return all of his pay
	♥ 3:41pm Carmichael: I know what it was. Stand by ...
	♥ 3:43pm Carmichael: Is this the one?
	3:44pm brainiac: YESH! Is that TR?
	3:44pm Androu B.: "Pedantic showboating", I feel you, Gus!
	♥ 3:46pm luka: half bear, the other half cat
	3:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...no Laurel & Hardy pun presents itself, alas...
	🎸 ♥ 3:46pm AnAnonymousParty: Bet this guy is fun at parties.
	🎸 ♥ 3:47pm Ken From Hyde Park: The Arizona state flower is a cactus, I presume? 🏜️
	3:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...we might have Laurel & Handy here - but nevermind...
	♥ 3:47pm steveo: Excellent Bodenheim today. I share his concern regarding shared state symbols
	♥ 3:47pm Carmichael: Yep. I was a backstage guest at this 2001 concert at the bandshell of the now-demolished Woodlake Inn on Hwy 160. Left to right: Godfrey Townsend Mark Farner Jack Bruce Todd R Christopher Cross Alan Parsons Alan's wife (in white) and friends are on the balcony in the upper left.
	3:48pm egould: Gus’ mommy didn’t love him enough.
	3:49pm Listening Out There: Of note in the playlist photo: Senor Wences at right, Ernest Tubb bottom left...
	3:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...each Musician sporting a distinct flower we can only presume ...it's only proper...
	3:49pm brainiac: Wow, what a lineup! I always like to think of Todd in Hawaii, just hanging out. Now, adumb question: Was it a good show?
	3:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Backstage or onstage together ?
	♥ 3:51pm Handy Haversack: I was thinking maybe Alan Parsons's shirt was doing all the work of making you think it was Hawaii, brainiac!
	3:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nothing but flowers.
	♥ 3:54pm Carmichael: You're right about the question, brainiac. 😜 It was 101 during soundcheck (this was in August). I was standing onstage at the soundboard, and Bruce slogged by me muttering something like, "How do you f*cking live here?!" Alan always wears loud colors. If you watched the Beatles doc, he is on the roof off to one side wearing a yellow shirt and purple tie (or maybe the opposite).
	3:58pm brainiac: Jack was drunk as usual, I suppose. Just thinking about what that show was like gives me chills. Ol' Todd has (or had) a big house in HI. Featured in the show Live From Daryl's House with Daryl Hall years ago. It was really cool. How I'd like to live there.
	♥ 3:59pm Carmichael: He has a restaurant in HI called Tiki Aliki (or something similar). It's on my bucket list.
	4:00pm brainiac: Let's go on a field trip!
	🎸 ♥ 4:01pm AnAnonymousParty: Bob?
	♥ 4:03pm radioronan: Oh Brother Cleve died? He was a Boston & record buying legend ..as well as a great musician and exotica historian. So sorry you have lost your friend.
	4:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sincere Condolences. Clearly a unique & valuable spirit.
	🎸 ♥ 4:08pm DjLorraine: Did someone say exotica? Brother Cleve sounds and looks like fine fellow.
	♥ 4:08pm xtrakrispy: As a purveyor of geeky wine and spirits to fancy bars and restaurants, my path crossed with Brother Cleve many times. Most recently at a bar he helped open on the LES recently. That his range of experience and expertise ranged from music, to cocktails and spirits, and so many things in-between - and how many people eulogized him this week - is a testament to his eminence.
	4:09pm mark couture: Hi everybody. I made it.
	♥ 4:10pm Handy Haversack: I was thinking you must have known him, xtrakrispy.
	♥ 4:10pm steveo: I'm sorry for your loss, Irwin.
	♥ 4:11pm Andrew_in_WI: "Lush" has a few definitions
	4:12pm Androu B.: Getting back to that Curha track, I just heard what sounded like soundbites from a late-night radio show where the host would let self-proclaimed UFO eyewitnesses would let them describe their encounters over the air.
	♥ 4:14pm chresti: He was 64?
	4:16pm Dean: I bet he made it to Whittier's Oceanic Arts a time or two: https://www.laweekly.com/say-aloha-to-oceanic-arts-whittiers-tiki-wonderland/
	♥ 4:17pm Irwin: Not sure of Cleve's birth year. It's an estimate.
	4:21pm Dean: According to this, he was 66 earlier this year. So, 66 or 67. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/13/dining/drinks/lullaby-cocktail-bar-brother-cleve.html
	🎸 ♥ 4:21pm Snortley: Boston Globe says he was 67.
	♥ 4:22pm chresti: 67, so 1955
	4:22pm Laura L: Enjoyed seeing Combustible Edison play at least once in NYC a long time ago now--Brother Cleve made the world a better place.
	4:22pm mark couture: Kronos 4tet has an interesting version of MiniSkirt, I think a tribute to Esquivel et al.
	♥ 4:22pm Irwin: Thanks, Chresti. Updated.
	♥ 4:23pm coco: wonderful tribute
	4:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: To lose a friend is losing whole parts of yourself - interactions not available with any others. When an elder dies a library burns they say. Except libraries don't drink with you too...
	4:24pm Dean: Evidently, you haven't visited my library, Rev.
	4:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...well - the son of the head librarian town I grew up is the one who gave me liquid LSD ...I probly did drink with him ...anyway, my point was...
	♥ 4:27pm Handy Haversack: Lullaby NYC's Dole-whip cocktail: imbibemagazine.com...
	♥ 4:29pm xtrakrispy: @handy - Lullaby is the place I was talking about. That drink is fun!!
	♥ 4:30pm Handy Haversack: Right, xtrakrispy -- it was mentioned in what Irwin linked to. Also, clearly, I have fallen down the Imbibe rabbit hole.
	4:32pm jan: Irwin- thanks for the memories. I remember when your program introduced Combustible Edison to these ears. Still got my Combustible Edison in the collection.
	♥ 4:34pm Andrew_in_WI: "Once saw Eno give a 6-minute tambourine solo" I wish something so grand could be said as my eulogy
	🎸 ♥ 4:39pm The Oscar: I put this Barrence track on a summer mix a few years back, and now I just wish I was on my way to the beach.
	4:47pm Phillip: Combustable Edison? They still around? I loved their "carnival of souls" song
	♥ 4:49pm Irwin: I think Cleve was in L.A. visiting the other CE members and possibly discussing a reunion? Don't quote me, but I'm piecing together some disparate comments passed along.
	🎸 ♥ 4:49pm The Oscar: I met the Millionaire from CE at a film festival afterparty several years ago. As a rule I try to keep my cool when I meet celebrities, but I was so stunned that I blurted out "You're the Millionaire!"
	4:50pm Phillip: I had the "I swinger" CD. ripped it to my ipod touch a long time ago
	4:52pm Androu B.: Brother Cleve seemed to embody the term "hedonist', the kind of person that would make everything he did so genuinely extravagant by adding an exotic flair. In that sense, I can understand how much he meant to you, Irwin, and to his many other acquaintances. I could only wish I had the good fortune to meet someone with that caliber of charm and casual eloquence.
	🎸 ♥ 4:53pm spodiodi: rip, Bro Cleve
	🎸 ♥ 4:53pm karlward: I'm sorry for your loss, but damn, what a legacy
	🎸 ♥ 4:53pm 12539: Thanks for that, Irwin.
	🎸 ♥ 4:54pm Phillippe: Very nice tribute, Irwin
	♥ 4:54pm Handy Haversack: Lovely tribute, Irwin. Thanks for including us.
	4:58pm Juli: Yays
	4:59pm Ochre Ogre: Irwin- Keen tunes, sorry for your loss. His intellect and wit is evident in that photo.
	♥ 4:59pm chresti: It was really hot and humid last week in LA Thank you Irwin!
	♥ 5:01pm Handy Haversack: I am alerted.
	5:01pm BH: The EAS still works
	5:01pm brainiac: Irwin's lunching the nukes
	5:02pm brainiac: or launching, either way
	♥ 5:03pm chresti: Lunching on cukes while launching the nukes
	5:05pm Androu B.: Gotta run, folks! Thanks, Irwin, and welcome back to Wednesday! ¡Hasta la proxima, Handy!
	5:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...the right dynamics for the New Frontier however one slices it...
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: flipside AndrouB
	♥ 5:07pm Irwin: I have been advised by the DoD that the End of the World Machine WORKS.
	♥ 5:07pm Handy Haversack: ¡Adios, Androu B.! Launch the cukes.
	5:12pm Ochre Ogre: Does the End of the World Machine save the world or destroy it?
	5:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Mr. President !! We cannot allow - a cucumber gap... They say Beethoven when deaf held a hard wire between his teeth & put it on the piano & heard thru his head...
	5:12pm Laura L: Good to know in advance that the End of the World will sound so silly.
	5:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...the next World War will be fought with cucumbers...
	5:15pm Phillip: I though it was spelled Moose DeFio.
	5:16pm Thelma: Welcome back Irwin. You were missed.
	🎸 ♥ 5:17pm Phillippe: Gotta run, thanks Irwin!
	5:17pm Jennica: Great photo. Great show. xxx
	5:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: All yo la tengoed was a cucumber. & the Ukraine.
	5:20pm yippie: repo hombre
	5:20pm BH: todo lo que queria era un Pepsi?
	♥ 5:20pm Handy Haversack: Todo lo que quería era una pepsi.
	♥ 5:21pm Handy Haversack: Ha, great minds! You go to B[&]H!
	🎸 ♥ 5:21pm -жеи: A mi me gusto mucho Luicidal
	5:21pm BH: we might need to check with the Royal Academy in regards to Pepsi being masculine or feminine
	5:21pm JetBoy now of Astoria: Love this cover. Have always loved this song.
	♥ 5:22pm Handy Haversack: Oh, JetBoy, do we have an archive show for you!
	5:22pm Andres: Solo queria una Coca.
	♥ 5:22pm Carmichael: I believe, as the object of the sentence, it relates back to the gender of the subject.
	5:22pm jan: I love this cover by Luicidal; I hope they cover "I wanna watch Cartoons"
	♥ 5:22pm Carmichael: Hecho en Mexico.
	5:23pm Phillip: Wow! That's the first time I heard a,spanish version of "institutionalized"
	5:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 👏
	♥ 5:24pm Irwin: Italian, right?
	♥ 5:25pm Carmichael: I remember Stubby Kaye as the host of Shenanigans: "Well, the clock on the wall says it's time to go ..."
	♥ 5:26pm Handy Haversack: We need F0F0 for this Pepsi-gender question. Really seems like the kind of thing they could sink their teeth into.
	5:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Al Capp & John Lennon interacting is worth a cucumber or two @ least...
	5:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a Pepsi bottle seems semiotically notably androgynous to my sensibilities...
	5:28pm BH: the one thing I can recall about Spanish gender stuff in groups is that if there's a group of a million women and one man, it's masculine but if it's all women then it's feminine
	5:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yet highly sexualized...
	5:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...well not like Coke...
	5:31pm f0f0 (: Handy, She only wanted a coca (Mexican way of saying coke drink)
	5:31pm Phillip: Just looked at the time 😱 5:30 wow that went fast.
	5:33pm f0f0 (: Hi and sorry for the loss of your friend, Irwin
	🎸 ♥ 5:33pm rrg: Thomas!
	♥ 5:34pm Handy Haversack: f0f0 on the spot! ¡Gracias!
	♥ 5:34pm Roberto: Tienes razon, BH!
	♥ 5:35pm dale: tuned in late but think i'll go back and listen if it's all this insane.
	5:35pm Phillip: Still will miss Fabio on thursdays. I have my therapists group therapy at 3 now on thursdays
	5:35pm f0f0 (: BH, We would say "Una Pepsi" (feminine)
	5:36pm AD: Alan Vega sings the classics!!
	5:36pm Ochre Ogre: Wonder if Thomas is the black dude that sings/plays guitar of Beatles covers in the 123 subway tunnel.
	5:37pm Aaron-in-Philly: this is certainly something.
	5:37pm AD: Great show Irwin will be tuning in!!
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...now here's your LasVegas, big spenders...
	5:38pm Ochre Ogre: Ciao f0f0, same in Italian.
