	2:57pm Laura L: Irwin, can it be your image choice for today was subliminally suggested by Ken's show this morning?

	3:02pm Listener Robert: Ca ne semble un vent doux! Mais c'est nos duty le regarder.
	3:02pm Phillippe: (also pointing out I was firsties for the actual show time...)
	3:03pm Carmichael: If there were some bread in the picture, it would be the personification of the review of Spinal Tap's "Shark Sandwich."
	👻 3:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: I think a vent doux is a new offering at Starbuck's.
	3:03pm Laura L: Irwin, take a look at Ken's playlist for this morning, a real poop fest!
	3:03pm chresti: Hi Irwin show!
	👻 3:04pm rrg: Hello, The Gang!
	3:04pm chresti: Having coffee in a blustery Pinole

	3:06pm Irwin: This Perez recording arranged and conducted by Claus Ogerman.
	3:07pm Irwin: ↳ Laura L @3:03 I missed it. If only he'd announced the poopfest in advance.
	3:08pm Cooh John: Hello Irwin, irwits, erstwhile ne'er do wells, et. al.
	3:08pm Matt from Springfield: Another jazz weather day here! And Irwin David Chusid has got it covered! Greets, Irwinians!
	3:08pm Mark: Hi Irwin. Hi everybody.
	👻 3:08pm chris in the redwoods: hey, Chresti across the bay! hey, Irwin! hey, everyone!
	3:08pm _Ike_: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @3:03 There's no apostrophe since it doesn't belong to Starbuck from Battlestar Galactica.
	3:10pm Laura L: @ Irwin: I listened to part of Ken's poopfest but had to abandon and get some work done.
	3:10pm Handy Haversack: ↳ _Ike_ @3:08 Well, we can't rule it out. And no one's read all of Moby-Dick.
	👻 3:11pm DjLorraine: Chus,id time! Cooh John 💪
	3:14pm Irwin: ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:08 "Jazz weather"?
	3:15pm Hoboken Jack: Hello Irwin, Handy, Moby Pipe, HP Ken, Ron, all! Yvonne the tailor and I were listening in the car but now it's just me. (I pushed her out.)
	3:15pm Cooh John: 🙋 DjLorraine.
	3:16pm Handy Haversack: Tough but fair, Jack! Matt, is your weather made of pot?
	3:16pm BH: greetings from the room where the kitten knows the finer points of etiquette, like "let other cats use the litterbox before you chase them up the stairs"
	3:16pm Matt from Springfield: Meanwhile in Washington...a guy in a suit ran up to me, handed me what looks like a relay-stick, and dashed off. I think...this means I'm now Speaker of the US House of Representatives...
	3:16pm Irwin: ↳ Hoboken Jack @3:15 Is that Ital Moda Yvonne?
	3:17pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:16 It is either made of pot - or has gone to it. Very wet.
	3:17pm chresti: Hi chris in the redwoods!
	3:17pm Phillippe: hey chresti, Matt in Springfield, chris, handy, _ike_, carmicahael, et. al.
	3:19pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:17 frinkiac.com... Yo, Phillippe!
	3:19pm Irwin: Lots of comments, very few clicky stars. Is today's music mediocre?
	3:19pm Matt from Springfield: Welcome, Philippe!
	👻 3:20pm chris in the redwoods: hey, Phillippe!
	3:20pm chresti: Carmichael it’s just a hoot and holler from el sobrante
	👻 3:21pm rrg: LL and I still want to hear that Doggie song. If you play that, we'll clicky-star it for sure.
	3:22pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:19 Quality line! 😉 And of course Bart and friends using the fake ID to see the movie version of "Naked Lunch" - a gag I didn't get until I was much older! 😉 "...there's at least two things wrong with that title!"
	👻 3:22pm DjLorraine: I'm feeling too good from the music to reach the clicky stars
	3:23pm Irwin: ↳ DjLorraine @3:22 Transported, is that it?
	👻 3:26pm DjLorraine: Yes. But, also Matt from Springfield is speaker
	3:26pm Carmichael: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:10 I'm that one guy ...
	3:27pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Hmmm, I never thought of the passage of time in that way.
	3:28pm Laura L: @rrg--Irwin will never play that Doggie song, he just won't do it. That's the old rule and it ain't changing.
	3:29pm chresti: Haha
	3:29pm Irwin: ↳ Laura L @3:28 What about the biscuit song? It's still legal, IIRC.
	3:29pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Carmichael @3:26 Me, too, Carmichael. But I had to land the line! BTW: If you can find it, Moby-Dick, or, The Card Game is quite a lot of fun.
	3:30pm Carmichael: OK well, back to emergency mode. You kids have fun.
	3:31pm Carmichael: ↳ chresti @3:20 Isn't El Sobrante home to 500 biker bars?
	3:31pm chresti: Dear Irwin , I am cruelly deprived of colicky star action with this dumb smart phone!
	3:31pm música especular I speak some Portuguese and … l: I karumba! Kari
	3:31pm Irwin: Jairus Sharif plays all instruments on this album. It's mostly terrific, but he's a not-very-good drummer.
	3:32pm timinoak: It was fun to hear the segment on Ken's show today: DJ Neal Adams with Irwin and Ken
	3:32pm Irwin: ↳ timinoak @3:32 Were we discussing poop?
	3:33pm Dean: Jairus Sharif's best work has always been those Music Minus One percussion albums.
	3:33pm chresti: @Ra Comm 43 by Jairus Sharif (Water & Tools) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
	3:33pm Laura L: The biscuit song, yes! But I've never clicky starred anything, not as a rule, but I just haven't.
	3:35pm Irwin: ↳ Laura L @3:33 You're such a contrarian, LL.
	3:35pm Dean: Did our DJ see the "5 Minutes..." piece in NYT about Sun Ra? Those drive me crazy.
	👻 3:35pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ _Ike_ @3:08 Oh yeah, thanks. I lumped them in with Wendy's, Lowe's and Dave & Buster's. Coincidentally (and sadly), I see that Buster died of an apparent suicide recently.
	3:36pm timinoak: ↳ Irwin @3:32 1985/86 how not to sound like a professional dj.. the uncut version. Really cool to listen to. I wish I was around to be able to hear that stuff. I was in mighty Groton in those years, but I had WCNI. Which was a life saver considering my situation.
	3:37pm Irwin: ↳ Dean @3:35 Don't read the NYT. I read ABOUT the NYT.
	3:38pm chresti: The place I stayed last night had a sign in the bathroom that said “poop jokes aren’t my favorite jokes……but they’re a solid #2”
	3:38pm Dean: My comment, for example, the one about the NYT.
	3:39pm Irwin: ↳ Dean @3:38 Precisely.
	3:40pm Laura L: Irwin, you and Ken and Neal Adams weren't discussing poop (and it was a great fun to hear the DJ training session), but Ken played a bunch of the diarrhea lady remixes today--so it was a regular poopfest.
	3:41pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ DjLorraine @3:26 ...and congratulations, Julio! He is set to be the first Hispanic, first immigrant, and first custodial worker to be Speaker of the House! Torch is passed! 😉
	3:43pm Irwin: ↳ Laura L @3:40 I have not yet accepted the DL as quality entertainment in my household.
	3:43pm Irwin: Bad sax solo here.
	3:44pm Irwin: Whew! It's over.
	3:45pm Mark: ↳ Irwin @3:43 true!
	3:45pm PMCwhenever: i listen on ios app a lot but seldom hit the heart, what does that actually do?
	👻 3:45pm Karl Ward: ↳ Irwin @3:43 I missed it. Rewind, let's hear it again.
	3:45pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @3:44 Yet you had to play the track, for the drums!
	3:46pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Irwin @3:16 No italics necessary, but yes indeed
	3:47pm Dean: Sax player was the leader of the band.
	3:47pm Irwin: Gus B is running a little late today. He'll be along soon.
	👻 3:48pm Karl Ward: ↳ Song: "Sunshine Coolin'" by "The Asteroids Galaxy Tour" I thought this was Kate Vargas
	3:49pm G: He’s progustinating?
	3:49pm egould: I can’t believe I’m about to write this; but I need some Gus Bodenheim pomposity in my life right now.
	👻 3:49pm DjLorraine: I missed a bit this morning because the dentist wants money for #5👑. To the archives
	👻 3:49pm AnAnonymousParty: all of a sudden I want a Heineken.
	3:50pm Dean: New York's alright if you like...
	3:51pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Irwin @3:47 Oh thank heavens.
	3:52pm Matt from Springfield: I'm disappointed - Gus is the sole person like him, yet he's still snatching poet's souls out of the CVS when no one's looking..!
	3:53pm Dean: I'm guessing he stole Philip Larkin's soul.
	3:53pm timinoak: ↳ PMCwhenever @3:45 iOS app answer: The heart icon adds the track to a useful favorites list. You can get to that with the most bottom right button. It doesn't tie into the logged in desktop fav list. all of my stuff is on my phone for the most part.
	3:54pm G: Jazz-prog-tologist?
	3:54pm Ike: ExiJesus? Which Jesus is he?
	👻 3:55pm AnAnonymousParty: Isn't it true that Gus was a free-lance Proctologist for a time?
	3:57pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Irwin @3:44 Glad I missed that.
	3:57pm Irwin: ↳ AnAnonymousParty @3:55 1-800-FREECOLONOSCOPY.COM was one of Gus's failed enterprises.
	3:57pm Mr. Pumpy: Sleepy-time Prog!
	3:58pm Asheville Jon: a.k.a noodling
	3:58pm Hopey Sockmonkey: "Sleepy Time Prog" is somehow apt.
	3:58pm G: As one himself, Gus really understands a-holes.
	👻 3:59pm AnAnonymousParty: ↳ Irwin @3:57 Gus always had the Midas touch. Everything he had his hand in turned into a muffler.
	👻 3:59pm rrg: "Brazen tedium".
	3:59pm dei xhrist: Jazz audiences do indeed clap at random intervals
	3:59pm tonyb: trollin’
	3:59pm Smacky: Crazy.
	3:59pm Mr. Pumpy: That comment is exhausting.
	3:59pm listener Rey: I don't think Gus really likes jazz
	👻 3:59pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Jazz Forensics with Gus Bodenheim" by "Gus Bodenh... This is great!
	3:59pm steveo: Very informative. Thank you Gus
	4:00pm Matt from Springfield: In the meantime, more Aural Bon-Bons for us Jaded Connoisseurs. Await the return of Jazzbo Denheim!
	4:00pm joe_rosevear: Thank you, Gus!
	4:00pm alan the painter: brazing tedium, braying, breathing, belching som Lester Bowie!
	4:00pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Jazz Forensics with Gus Bodenheim" by "Gus Bodenh... It's true, the knowingly nodding thing jazzers do, when someone quotes Here Comes the Bride, it's a bit of an eye roller.
	4:00pm PMCwhenever: @tim. now that makes some sense, never noticed -thx
	4:00pm Handy Haversack: If doctorjazz says it passes muster, I'm down! Good to finally get it. And with that, I'm out. Must away home, under river, over creek. Hoping to catch the last hour, with a drink in hand. Thanks, Irwin!
	4:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Here for the 'NPR Jazz' ! ...I can do 'grumpy non sequitur' on my own...
	4:02pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Bop Boy" by "Bob Mintzer" I fell like Bob Mintzer is a bit underrated. He can play the straight ahead shiz very nicely.
	4:02pm Dean: I enjoyed the dig at Kendi.
	4:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ AnAnonymousParty @3:59 HaHa !
	4:04pm Irwin: ↳ Dean @4:02 One of Gus's specialties.
	👻 4:05pm DjLorraine: Congrats Julio!
	4:05pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:02 Greets and HNY RevRab! This is a particularly "NPR" "bop" piece - though a great bit of "fusion"/"smooth jazz"/"sleepy-time prog" was that Danilo Perez piece from earlier.
	👻 4:07pm Listening Out There: Beta than nuthin.'...
	4:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:05 Loves me some StraightAhead ...bugs me when it's too Loungey or 'Smooth' sometimes & it's Jazz with the Jazz taken out so to speak ...but absolutes are hard to pin. Like butterflies - things tend to die when you do that...
	4:12pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ DjLorraine @4:05 😉 Though during my brief tenure, I implemented an independent outside ethics review panel, authorized a fleet of food trucks to sell the Capitol's navy bean soup to the public, and told George Santos to stand in a corner wearing a lampshade until we get him sorted out...
	4:19pm KingOfJunk: I’m feeling opium
	👻 4:19pm Mark Hurst: Greetings, Irwin and everyone
	4:21pm timinoak: what kind of piano tone is this?
	4:22pm Irwin: Hello, Markov Tektonov.
	4:23pm Mr. Pumpy: Damn, go off to take care of an errand or two...miss The Beta Band! 2023...you harsh mistress!
	4:24pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "What Stories We Tell (II. Birthlight / Boundless ... What stories this tells!
	4:29pm unpopularfred: Well, Old Man Mose has kicked the bucket
	4:40pm NikiA: Random question about the station’s FM range. It used to be that I’d drive down to the shore and lose FM at about Sayreville. Now, it’s crystal clear in Sayreville at least. Has something changed?
	👻 4:41pm rrg: I found that piece by the American Chamber Music Group at archive dot org: archive.org...
	4:42pm Irwin: ↳ rrg @4:41 Six tracks, IIRC.
	4:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Nobody Knows" by "The Rainmakers" ...yer don't start no trouble with Chusid - yer won't get no troubles. Look straight ahead & enjoy yer beer...
	4:48pm Phillippe: gotta head out early -- thank you Irwin! Bye all!
	4:50pm PaulRobeson1923: Hi Hi Hi
	4:50pm The Oscar: Pretty sure Bill's foil on this track is Christopher Guest!
	4:51pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "The Return of Ron Fields" by "Bill Murray and Ira... Ha, thought that was David Lander or Chris Guest - is this a Lampoon record? Bye bye bye Philippe! And hi hi hi PaulRobeson1923!
	4:52pm PaulRobeson1923: Hi Matt from Springfield! Everyone!
	4:52pm Irwin: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:51 Yep, NatLamp.
	4:53pm Wind: Hi Matt, Paul, Irwin, every One! Happy 1923 :)
	👻 4:54pm rrg: Rain Stopping Soon. Expected to stop at your location at 17:09.
	4:55pm Irwin: We've had London's weather for the past four days.
	4:56pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @4:55 I certainly had the Fog on New Year's Eve. But no longer a London Fog coat.
	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "The Return of Ron Fields" by "Bill Murray and Ira... ...read that as Bill(y) Mummy & wondering if I should keep thinking that...
	5:01pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @4:52 Will have to look into that NatLamp further. Howdy Wind!
	👻 5:01pm rrg: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:00 Mumy.
	5:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ rrg @5:01 Right.
	5:03pm Irwin: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:01 A lot of it's probably dated humor, some stuff that comedians could no longer get away with, and some stuff that's just outright stupid. But surely a few sustaining comedic gems.
	5:03pm Carmichael: Ron Fields, the man who discovered Cyrkle!
	5:03pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Irwin & all
	5:05pm Carmichael: ↳ Carmichael @5:03 I like Murray's laidback DJ: "It's 3 AM, which means we've reached the 'progressive trends' part of the program."
	5:06pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @5:03 There's always dated stuff on those albums, but I like 70s comedy LPs and always like to see how each holds up against their other contemporaries. Halloo coelacanth!
	5:06pm Cooh John: Love the Necks
	5:06pm Jason from Houston: Had the volume a little low but just realized what this is. Soooo good.
	5:07pm coelacanth∅: olá Matt!
	5:08pm Carmichael: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:00 It's Bill Murray & Christopher Guest
	5:09pm Irwin: ↳ Carmichael @5:08 Album says Ian Schnorrs, but that's gotta be a pseud.
	5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Carmichael @5:08 ...I don't wanna Guess. I wanna know what happened to the Robot & the Fishheads....
	5:10pm Irwin: ↳ Jason from Houston @5:06 This track is killer. 8 out 5 WFMU DJs agree.
	5:10pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Carmichael @5:08 I was wondering: Chris Guest usually did those flamboyant/NYC media type voices at the time, thought at first it was him, and esp. if "Ira Schnorrs" is a pseudonym.
	5:11pm dale: digging this. somethinig may happen and that's what's keeping me on pins and needles.
	👻 5:11pm Ken From Hyde Park: Is this the time when vacuuming happens in Studio A? (a long track)
	5:11pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @5:10 So long as WFMU is Non-Euclidean. ("I think WFMU is Non-EVERYTHING!!")
	5:11pm Handy Haversack: OK, home again. Groceries stowed, drink mixed, and some level of civilization once more grasped from capital's claws. So cheers, Irwin and the Chusidears!
	5:13pm Handy Haversack: ↳ NikiA @4:40 NikiA, they are in the process of replacing the 91.1 transmitter. I haven't noticed a signal boost in particular here in Brooklyn, but there's still a Manhattan in the way. So maybe that? Or maybe just random atmospherics, sunspots, Musk satellites, who knows.
	5:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Irwin @5:03 ...it's no Firesign Theatre ...lemme guess - you don't like them...
	5:14pm PMCwhenever: yes the necks, anyone ever see hear them live?
	5:18pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:13 In case you didn't see it, Rev. Rab, from the WFMU newsletter: "Do you like to laugh? Taylor Jessen (sometime DJ of Fuji Puzzle Box on the Sheena's Jungle Room stream) produced reissues for both of the long-out-of-print LPs by America's great lost comedy troupe, Duck's Breath Mystery Theatre, creators of Dr. Science, Ian Shoales, and Randee of the Redwoods. The albums, Out of Season (1980) and Born To Be Tiled (1986), both remastered and packed with bonus material, are now available (ducksbreathmysterytheatre.bandcamp.com). He also produced a new reissue for the Firesign Theatre, Anytown USA, which documents Firesign's live show of the same name from their American tour of 1974, the year of their peak popularity. Get yours here (firesigntheatre.bandcamp.com...)."
	5:18pm Irwin: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:13 Loved Firesign back in the day. Their stuff doesn't hold up. In fact, removed from the context of their times, little of it makes any sense. Also, lots of dumb drug in-jokes. Meh.
	👻 5:19pm Ken From Hyde Park: The Necks we're hearing: thenecksau.bandcamp.com...
	5:19pm Stevel: Ian Shoales almost killed me. I was driving and listening to his "I [Heart} my [dog head] routine and nearly drove off of the freeway.
	5:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Irwin @5:18 See.
	5:20pm Wind: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:03 greetings to u 2
	5:21pm Dean: "In fact, removed from the context of their times, little of it makes any sense." You know, they say that about William Shakespeare, too.
	👻 5:21pm rrg: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:11 Handy, you should listen on your trip home, too. That's what I used to do when I was commuting on Wednesday afternoons.
	5:22pm Wind: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:11 cheers
	5:22pm Handy Haversack: ↳ rrg @5:21 I don't have any means of doing so, rrg. I don't use a cell phone, and portable radios aren't going to catch the signal in the subway. It's OK -- it's reading time!
	5:25pm brainiac: I'd like to pepper spray ol' Gus B.
	5:26pm Wind: Gus my love
	5:27pm egould: Cups and balls
	5:27pm G: He must have a copy of _What Would Bodenheim Do?”
	5:27pm -жеи: Now that Barbara Walters has passed away, Gus has the last remaining "Middle Atlantic" accent left in the media
	5:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Up on the Roof" by "Bang Bang Band Girl" What a kewl cover.
	5:29pm Handy Haversack: My dad had a Dylan Thomas-Maxwell Bodenheim story. I think I've told it here? I forgot they're brothers.
	5:29pm Irwin: ↳ -жеи @5:27 I'll pass along that "compliment" to Mr. Bodenheim.
	5:29pm rsj: sometimes i miss irwin's old "kenny G" character
	👻 5:29pm Ken From Hyde Park: The Old Codger is due to host the Techtonic program on April 3. "Don't reply to those pyramid scheme letters," he'll advise us.
	5:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ -жеи @5:27 MidAtlantic as in half USA half UK - or as in you states down there some mistakenly refer to as being 'Northeast' ?
	5:32pm egould: Teenage Fanclub is pretty good band.
	5:33pm Carmichael: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:32 The "katherine Hepburn" accent
	5:33pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:32 Typically it refers to the imaginary "meeting place" in the Atlantic, bits of British diction and American diction. Cary Grant, a good "meet in the middle" English speaking voice.
	5:34pm lazy rider: Eddy Current, FUKYEAH!!!
	5:35pm brainiac: ↳ Carmichael @5:33 "My she was yar"
	5:35pm egould: Eddie Current Supression Ring is pretty good band.
	5:35pm Irwin: ↳ lazy rider @5:34 I know nothing about this band but like what I've heard. Info?
	5:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:33 Okay ...always thot of like 70s RawkStars being that - BabaWawa never made me think 'England' @ all - CaryGrant? Hm...
	5:36pm -жеи: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:32 Mid-Atlantic accent as in: en.wikipedia.org...
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ -жеи @5:36 Okay. Affected then...
	👻 5:37pm rrg: ↳ -жеи @5:36 Bennett Cerf had that accent too.
	5:37pm egould: Aussie weirdo rock. Reminds me of Flipper? They can hump the leg off a riff. Good band listen to more of them.
	👻 5:38pm rrg: That Flipper, he's pretty smart for a fish.
	5:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Memory Lane" by "Eddy Current Suppression Ring" I know 'Eddy Current Suppression' from checking ball bearings in a factory for magnetism - indeed passed thru a ring.
	5:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ rrg @5:38 ...is that where the Fishheads went ??...
	5:41pm -жеи: ↳ rrg @5:37 Sideshow Bob also has the Mid-Atlantic accent. So it's down to Gus and Sideshow Bob to keep it alive.
	5:42pm Stevel: ↳ Song: "Sunday Papers" by "Joe Jackson" JJ is one of the great lyric spitters, and then some
	5:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I've had English people ask me what part of England I was from ...I was gonna ask them...
	5:43pm Dean: Peak Mid-A has to have been William F. Buckley, Jr.
	5:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...everybody thinks English people all speak Posh ...Clay's lousy @ it for instance - for all his gifts...
	👻 5:44pm Will thee Sound Guy: just now having a chance to chime in.... Happy first show of 2023 Irwin!!! Hope everyone is well! been enjoying the tunes!
	5:46pm Carmichael: ↳ -жеи @5:41 Slack-jawed yokels ...
	5:46pm brainiac: This McCartney bed music always make my eyes spiral all cartoonish and such.
	5:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Dean @5:43 ...he was peak something...
	👻 5:46pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ -жеи @5:41 Now I need to find out what accent Lunchlady Doris has.
	5:47pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @5:46 I suggest "Eastern seaboard working shlub"
	5:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Bass concentrates the mind'... - very GusBodenheim
	5:48pm Laura L: If there is any subject in which Gus Bodenheim is not an expert, I don't want to know about it.
	5:48pm coelacanth∅: RR in grade school kids often asked me if i was from england. i've assumed it's because i spoke fairly proper american english. back when there was such a thing.
	5:48pm brainiac: ↳ brainiac @5:46 😵‍💫
	5:48pm Handy Haversack: "Nuthin' cracks a turtle lahk Leeeon Yeriss." Now, I was led to expect solos?
	5:50pm coelacanth∅: bass concentrates the nature, as far as i'm concerned!
	5:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:50 ...fingers stretching ...bowels loosening...
	5:52pm Irwin: ↳ Laura L @5:48 Gus is one of the most well-read men in Courtney's inner circle. Literature, potboilers, how-to's, bios, he is ombibulous.
	5:52pm coelacanth∅: haha ...should i have said "loins"?
	5:52pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "New Time Shuffle" by "Stanley Turrentine" Mighty slick piece here! I dig!
	5:53pm Handy Haversack: Many thanks, Irwin! Now that's infotainment! Later on, all!
	5:53pm Irwin: ↳ Irwin @5:52 The only thing he doesn't read, apparently, are contracts, which is how he ended up on this program.
	5:54pm Wind: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:53 adios
	5:54pm Laura L: Nearly the top of the hour already--thanks, Irwin, for another very fine show today. Here's to ombibulousness!
	5:55pm brainiac: Thanks, Irwin. Today's show was, as the kids say, "a gas."
	5:55pm Irwin: ↳ Laura L @5:54 You keep makin' 'em, we'll keep readin' 'em.
	5:55pm Dean: Signing loan papers many years ago I found a bunch of errors. Reported them to the loan guy. "Huh, nobody ever reads these," he replied.
	5:55pm Wind: ↳ Irwin @5:52 How can one meet this infamous Mr. G.Bodenheim?
	5:55pm Matt from Springfield: Thanks as always for brightening up this afternoon, Irwin! Take care everyone, see you Chusidiers next time!
	5:56pm Wind: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:55 Bye Matt, Happy new Year :)
	👻 5:56pm Will thee Sound Guy: Thank you Irwin and Gus!!! Great show!
	5:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...will be chewing over 'ombibulous' for a minute... ~ TY Always Mr. DJ IDC Sir ~
	5:56pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Wind @5:56 Same to you! :)
	5:58pm coelacanth∅: yes right back to you Wind!
	👻 5:58pm rrg: Thanks, Irwin and Pals. Soon it will be dinnertime, but I trust we'll all be back here in 165 hours.
	5:59pm Dean: "Ombibulous" looks like a portmanteau of "omnibibulous" and "ambibulous." Thus, Mr. B reads all books, i.e., both of them. But "bibulous" refers to drink.
	5:59pm egould: Thanks Irwin. Brilliant.
	5:59pm Dean: Good sax, by the way.
	6:00pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Irwin!
	6:00pm Wind: Tada!
	6:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Dean @5:59 ...or he imbibes books ...which seems in character more or less...

	1/3 1:08pm ?: Happy New Year, Irwin!
	1/3 3:13pm Pierre Delecto: Change, difference, growth, departure, demise. It's like that Joni Mitchell song, without the parking lot.
	9:08pm Theremaniac: My New Years resolution was to stop commenting here needlessly.
	👻 2:50pm rrg: Five-ish.
	👻 2:50pm rrg: And also six-ish.
	👻 2:51pm rrg: Note: This playlist is still being updated.
	👻 2:53pm rrg: And before they all arrive, let me be the first to welcome "The Usual Gang of Idiots" back to the board. New year, new rules: everyone must be nice.
	2:54pm Robm: ↳ rrg @2:53 I resemble that remark:)
	👻 2:54pm rrg: Light Rain Soon. Expected to start at your location at 15:09.
	2:57pm Laura L: Irwin, can it be your image choice for today was subliminally suggested by Ken's show this morning?
	3:00pm Irwin: ↳ Laura L @2:57 I have no idea what you're referring to!
	3:01pm Phillippe: Yay, Irwin time! Howdy all!
	3:01pm Handy Haversack: Hi, Irwin, Irwinners.
	3:01pm Irwin: No idea wtf this song is about.
	3:01pm Crosby in KC: Hello, Irwin and all.
	👻 3:02pm 12539: Irwin O'clock again!
	3:02pm Listener Robert: Ca ne semble un vent doux! Mais c'est nos duty le regarder.
	3:02pm Phillippe: (also pointing out I was firsties for the actual show time...)
	3:03pm Carmichael: If there were some bread in the picture, it would be the personification of the review of Spinal Tap's "Shark Sandwich."
	👻 3:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: I think a vent doux is a new offering at Starbuck's.
	3:03pm Laura L: Irwin, take a look at Ken's playlist for this morning, a real poop fest!
	3:03pm chresti: Hi Irwin show!
	👻 3:04pm rrg: Hello, The Gang!
	3:04pm chresti: Having coffee in a blustery Pinole
	3:05pm Carmichael: ↳ chresti @3:04 Wow, Pinole. Haven't been there in decades.
	3:05pm Expert: Dog doux
	3:06pm popsicornia in vancouveronia: Happy new year one & all!
	3:06pm Irwin: This Perez recording arranged and conducted by Claus Ogerman.
	3:07pm Irwin: ↳ Laura L @3:03 I missed it. If only he'd announced the poopfest in advance.
	3:08pm Cooh John: Hello Irwin, irwits, erstwhile ne'er do wells, et. al.
	3:08pm Matt from Springfield: Another jazz weather day here! And Irwin David Chusid has got it covered! Greets, Irwinians!
	3:08pm Mark: Hi Irwin. Hi everybody.
	👻 3:08pm chris in the redwoods: hey, Chresti across the bay! hey, Irwin! hey, everyone!
	3:08pm _Ike_: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @3:03 There's no apostrophe since it doesn't belong to Starbuck from Battlestar Galactica.
	3:10pm Laura L: @ Irwin: I listened to part of Ken's poopfest but had to abandon and get some work done.
	3:10pm Handy Haversack: ↳ _Ike_ @3:08 Well, we can't rule it out. And no one's read all of Moby-Dick.
	👻 3:11pm DjLorraine: Chus,id time! Cooh John 💪
	3:14pm Irwin: ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:08 "Jazz weather"?
	3:15pm Hoboken Jack: Hello Irwin, Handy, Moby Pipe, HP Ken, Ron, all! Yvonne the tailor and I were listening in the car but now it's just me. (I pushed her out.)
	3:15pm Cooh John: 🙋 DjLorraine.
	3:16pm Handy Haversack: Tough but fair, Jack! Matt, is your weather made of pot?
	3:16pm BH: greetings from the room where the kitten knows the finer points of etiquette, like "let other cats use the litterbox before you chase them up the stairs"
	3:16pm Matt from Springfield: Meanwhile in Washington...a guy in a suit ran up to me, handed me what looks like a relay-stick, and dashed off. I think...this means I'm now Speaker of the US House of Representatives...
	3:16pm Irwin: ↳ Hoboken Jack @3:15 Is that Ital Moda Yvonne?
	3:17pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:16 It is either made of pot - or has gone to it. Very wet.
	3:17pm chresti: Hi chris in the redwoods!
	3:17pm Phillippe: hey chresti, Matt in Springfield, chris, handy, _ike_, carmicahael, et. al.
	3:19pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:17 frinkiac.com... Yo, Phillippe!
	3:19pm Irwin: Lots of comments, very few clicky stars. Is today's music mediocre?
	3:19pm Matt from Springfield: Welcome, Philippe!
	👻 3:20pm chris in the redwoods: hey, Phillippe!
	3:20pm chresti: Carmichael it’s just a hoot and holler from el sobrante
	👻 3:21pm rrg: LL and I still want to hear that Doggie song. If you play that, we'll clicky-star it for sure.
	3:22pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:19 Quality line! 😉 And of course Bart and friends using the fake ID to see the movie version of "Naked Lunch" - a gag I didn't get until I was much older! 😉 "...there's at least two things wrong with that title!"
	👻 3:22pm DjLorraine: I'm feeling too good from the music to reach the clicky stars
	3:23pm Irwin: ↳ DjLorraine @3:22 Transported, is that it?
	👻 3:26pm DjLorraine: Yes. But, also Matt from Springfield is speaker
	3:26pm Carmichael: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:10 I'm that one guy ...
	3:27pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Hmmm, I never thought of the passage of time in that way.
	3:28pm Laura L: @rrg--Irwin will never play that Doggie song, he just won't do it. That's the old rule and it ain't changing.
	3:29pm chresti: Haha
	3:29pm Irwin: ↳ Laura L @3:28 What about the biscuit song? It's still legal, IIRC.
	3:29pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Carmichael @3:26 Me, too, Carmichael. But I had to land the line! BTW: If you can find it, Moby-Dick, or, The Card Game is quite a lot of fun.
	3:30pm Carmichael: OK well, back to emergency mode. You kids have fun.
	3:31pm Carmichael: ↳ chresti @3:20 Isn't El Sobrante home to 500 biker bars?
	3:31pm chresti: Dear Irwin , I am cruelly deprived of colicky star action with this dumb smart phone!
	3:31pm música especular I speak some Portuguese and … l: I karumba! Kari
	3:31pm Irwin: Jairus Sharif plays all instruments on this album. It's mostly terrific, but he's a not-very-good drummer.
	3:32pm timinoak: It was fun to hear the segment on Ken's show today: DJ Neal Adams with Irwin and Ken
	3:32pm Irwin: ↳ timinoak @3:32 Were we discussing poop?
	3:33pm Dean: Jairus Sharif's best work has always been those Music Minus One percussion albums.
	3:33pm chresti: @Ra Comm 43 by Jairus Sharif (Water & Tools) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
	3:33pm Laura L: The biscuit song, yes! But I've never clicky starred anything, not as a rule, but I just haven't.
	3:35pm Irwin: ↳ Laura L @3:33 You're such a contrarian, LL.
	3:35pm Dean: Did our DJ see the "5 Minutes..." piece in NYT about Sun Ra? Those drive me crazy.
	👻 3:35pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ _Ike_ @3:08 Oh yeah, thanks. I lumped them in with Wendy's, Lowe's and Dave & Buster's. Coincidentally (and sadly), I see that Buster died of an apparent suicide recently.
	3:36pm timinoak: ↳ Irwin @3:32 1985/86 how not to sound like a professional dj.. the uncut version. Really cool to listen to. I wish I was around to be able to hear that stuff. I was in mighty Groton in those years, but I had WCNI. Which was a life saver considering my situation.
	3:37pm Irwin: ↳ Dean @3:35 Don't read the NYT. I read ABOUT the NYT.
	3:38pm chresti: The place I stayed last night had a sign in the bathroom that said “poop jokes aren’t my favorite jokes……but they’re a solid #2”
	3:38pm Dean: My comment, for example, the one about the NYT.
	3:39pm Irwin: ↳ Dean @3:38 Precisely.
	3:40pm Laura L: Irwin, you and Ken and Neal Adams weren't discussing poop (and it was a great fun to hear the DJ training session), but Ken played a bunch of the diarrhea lady remixes today--so it was a regular poopfest.
	3:41pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ DjLorraine @3:26 ...and congratulations, Julio! He is set to be the first Hispanic, first immigrant, and first custodial worker to be Speaker of the House! Torch is passed! 😉
	3:43pm Irwin: ↳ Laura L @3:40 I have not yet accepted the DL as quality entertainment in my household.
	3:43pm Irwin: Bad sax solo here.
	3:44pm Irwin: Whew! It's over.
	3:45pm Mark: ↳ Irwin @3:43 true!
	3:45pm PMCwhenever: i listen on ios app a lot but seldom hit the heart, what does that actually do?
	👻 3:45pm Karl Ward: ↳ Irwin @3:43 I missed it. Rewind, let's hear it again.
	3:45pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @3:44 Yet you had to play the track, for the drums!
	3:46pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Irwin @3:16 No italics necessary, but yes indeed
	3:47pm Dean: Sax player was the leader of the band.
	3:47pm Irwin: Gus B is running a little late today. He'll be along soon.
	👻 3:48pm Karl Ward: ↳ Song: "Sunshine Coolin'" by "The Asteroids Galaxy Tour" I thought this was Kate Vargas
	3:49pm G: He’s progustinating?
	3:49pm egould: I can’t believe I’m about to write this; but I need some Gus Bodenheim pomposity in my life right now.
	👻 3:49pm DjLorraine: I missed a bit this morning because the dentist wants money for #5👑. To the archives
	👻 3:49pm AnAnonymousParty: all of a sudden I want a Heineken.
	3:50pm Dean: New York's alright if you like...
	3:51pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Irwin @3:47 Oh thank heavens.
	3:52pm Matt from Springfield: I'm disappointed - Gus is the sole person like him, yet he's still snatching poet's souls out of the CVS when no one's looking..!
	3:53pm Dean: I'm guessing he stole Philip Larkin's soul.
	3:53pm timinoak: ↳ PMCwhenever @3:45 iOS app answer: The heart icon adds the track to a useful favorites list. You can get to that with the most bottom right button. It doesn't tie into the logged in desktop fav list. all of my stuff is on my phone for the most part.
	3:54pm G: Jazz-prog-tologist?
	3:54pm Ike: ExiJesus? Which Jesus is he?
	👻 3:55pm AnAnonymousParty: Isn't it true that Gus was a free-lance Proctologist for a time?
	3:57pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Irwin @3:44 Glad I missed that.
	3:57pm Irwin: ↳ AnAnonymousParty @3:55 1-800-FREECOLONOSCOPY.COM was one of Gus's failed enterprises.
	3:57pm Mr. Pumpy: Sleepy-time Prog!
	3:58pm Asheville Jon: a.k.a noodling
	3:58pm Hopey Sockmonkey: "Sleepy Time Prog" is somehow apt.
	3:58pm G: As one himself, Gus really understands a-holes.
	👻 3:59pm AnAnonymousParty: ↳ Irwin @3:57 Gus always had the Midas touch. Everything he had his hand in turned into a muffler.
	👻 3:59pm rrg: "Brazen tedium".
	3:59pm dei xhrist: Jazz audiences do indeed clap at random intervals
	3:59pm tonyb: trollin’
	3:59pm Smacky: Crazy.
	3:59pm Mr. Pumpy: That comment is exhausting.
	3:59pm listener Rey: I don't think Gus really likes jazz
	👻 3:59pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Jazz Forensics with Gus Bodenheim" by "Gus Bodenh... This is great!
	3:59pm steveo: Very informative. Thank you Gus
	4:00pm Matt from Springfield: In the meantime, more Aural Bon-Bons for us Jaded Connoisseurs. Await the return of Jazzbo Denheim!
	4:00pm joe_rosevear: Thank you, Gus!
	4:00pm alan the painter: brazing tedium, braying, breathing, belching som Lester Bowie!
	4:00pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Jazz Forensics with Gus Bodenheim" by "Gus Bodenh... It's true, the knowingly nodding thing jazzers do, when someone quotes Here Comes the Bride, it's a bit of an eye roller.
	4:00pm PMCwhenever: @tim. now that makes some sense, never noticed -thx
	4:00pm Handy Haversack: If doctorjazz says it passes muster, I'm down! Good to finally get it. And with that, I'm out. Must away home, under river, over creek. Hoping to catch the last hour, with a drink in hand. Thanks, Irwin!
	4:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Here for the 'NPR Jazz' ! ...I can do 'grumpy non sequitur' on my own...
	4:02pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Bop Boy" by "Bob Mintzer" I fell like Bob Mintzer is a bit underrated. He can play the straight ahead shiz very nicely.
	4:02pm Dean: I enjoyed the dig at Kendi.
	4:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ AnAnonymousParty @3:59 HaHa !
	4:04pm Irwin: ↳ Dean @4:02 One of Gus's specialties.
	👻 4:05pm DjLorraine: Congrats Julio!
	4:05pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:02 Greets and HNY RevRab! This is a particularly "NPR" "bop" piece - though a great bit of "fusion"/"smooth jazz"/"sleepy-time prog" was that Danilo Perez piece from earlier.
	👻 4:07pm Listening Out There: Beta than nuthin.'...
	4:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:05 Loves me some StraightAhead ...bugs me when it's too Loungey or 'Smooth' sometimes & it's Jazz with the Jazz taken out so to speak ...but absolutes are hard to pin. Like butterflies - things tend to die when you do that...
	4:12pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ DjLorraine @4:05 😉 Though during my brief tenure, I implemented an independent outside ethics review panel, authorized a fleet of food trucks to sell the Capitol's navy bean soup to the public, and told George Santos to stand in a corner wearing a lampshade until we get him sorted out...
	4:19pm KingOfJunk: I’m feeling opium
	👻 4:19pm Mark Hurst: Greetings, Irwin and everyone
	4:21pm timinoak: what kind of piano tone is this?
	4:22pm Irwin: Hello, Markov Tektonov.
	4:23pm Mr. Pumpy: Damn, go off to take care of an errand or two...miss The Beta Band! 2023...you harsh mistress!
	4:24pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "What Stories We Tell (II. Birthlight / Boundless ... What stories this tells!
	4:29pm unpopularfred: Well, Old Man Mose has kicked the bucket
	4:40pm NikiA: Random question about the station’s FM range. It used to be that I’d drive down to the shore and lose FM at about Sayreville. Now, it’s crystal clear in Sayreville at least. Has something changed?
	👻 4:41pm rrg: I found that piece by the American Chamber Music Group at archive dot org: archive.org...
	4:42pm Irwin: ↳ rrg @4:41 Six tracks, IIRC.
	4:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Nobody Knows" by "The Rainmakers" ...yer don't start no trouble with Chusid - yer won't get no troubles. Look straight ahead & enjoy yer beer...
	4:48pm Phillippe: gotta head out early -- thank you Irwin! Bye all!
	4:50pm PaulRobeson1923: Hi Hi Hi
	4:50pm The Oscar: Pretty sure Bill's foil on this track is Christopher Guest!
	4:51pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "The Return of Ron Fields" by "Bill Murray and Ira... Ha, thought that was David Lander or Chris Guest - is this a Lampoon record? Bye bye bye Philippe! And hi hi hi PaulRobeson1923!
	4:52pm PaulRobeson1923: Hi Matt from Springfield! Everyone!
	4:52pm Irwin: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:51 Yep, NatLamp.
	4:53pm Wind: Hi Matt, Paul, Irwin, every One! Happy 1923 :)
	👻 4:54pm rrg: Rain Stopping Soon. Expected to stop at your location at 17:09.
	4:55pm Irwin: We've had London's weather for the past four days.
	4:56pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @4:55 I certainly had the Fog on New Year's Eve. But no longer a London Fog coat.
	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "The Return of Ron Fields" by "Bill Murray and Ira... ...read that as Bill(y) Mummy & wondering if I should keep thinking that...
	5:01pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @4:52 Will have to look into that NatLamp further. Howdy Wind!
	👻 5:01pm rrg: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:00 Mumy.
	5:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ rrg @5:01 Right.
	5:03pm Irwin: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:01 A lot of it's probably dated humor, some stuff that comedians could no longer get away with, and some stuff that's just outright stupid. But surely a few sustaining comedic gems.
	5:03pm Carmichael: Ron Fields, the man who discovered Cyrkle!
	5:03pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Irwin & all
	5:05pm Carmichael: ↳ Carmichael @5:03 I like Murray's laidback DJ: "It's 3 AM, which means we've reached the 'progressive trends' part of the program."
	5:06pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @5:03 There's always dated stuff on those albums, but I like 70s comedy LPs and always like to see how each holds up against their other contemporaries. Halloo coelacanth!
	5:06pm Cooh John: Love the Necks
	5:06pm Jason from Houston: Had the volume a little low but just realized what this is. Soooo good.
	5:07pm coelacanth∅: olá Matt!
	5:08pm Carmichael: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:00 It's Bill Murray & Christopher Guest
	5:09pm Irwin: ↳ Carmichael @5:08 Album says Ian Schnorrs, but that's gotta be a pseud.
	5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Carmichael @5:08 ...I don't wanna Guess. I wanna know what happened to the Robot & the Fishheads....
	5:10pm Irwin: ↳ Jason from Houston @5:06 This track is killer. 8 out 5 WFMU DJs agree.
	5:10pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Carmichael @5:08 I was wondering: Chris Guest usually did those flamboyant/NYC media type voices at the time, thought at first it was him, and esp. if "Ira Schnorrs" is a pseudonym.
	5:11pm dale: digging this. somethinig may happen and that's what's keeping me on pins and needles.
	👻 5:11pm Ken From Hyde Park: Is this the time when vacuuming happens in Studio A? (a long track)
	5:11pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @5:10 So long as WFMU is Non-Euclidean. ("I think WFMU is Non-EVERYTHING!!")
	5:11pm Handy Haversack: OK, home again. Groceries stowed, drink mixed, and some level of civilization once more grasped from capital's claws. So cheers, Irwin and the Chusidears!
	5:13pm Handy Haversack: ↳ NikiA @4:40 NikiA, they are in the process of replacing the 91.1 transmitter. I haven't noticed a signal boost in particular here in Brooklyn, but there's still a Manhattan in the way. So maybe that? Or maybe just random atmospherics, sunspots, Musk satellites, who knows.
	5:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Irwin @5:03 ...it's no Firesign Theatre ...lemme guess - you don't like them...
	5:14pm PMCwhenever: yes the necks, anyone ever see hear them live?
	5:18pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:13 In case you didn't see it, Rev. Rab, from the WFMU newsletter: "Do you like to laugh? Taylor Jessen (sometime DJ of Fuji Puzzle Box on the Sheena's Jungle Room stream) produced reissues for both of the long-out-of-print LPs by America's great lost comedy troupe, Duck's Breath Mystery Theatre, creators of Dr. Science, Ian Shoales, and Randee of the Redwoods. The albums, Out of Season (1980) and Born To Be Tiled (1986), both remastered and packed with bonus material, are now available (ducksbreathmysterytheatre.bandcamp.com). He also produced a new reissue for the Firesign Theatre, Anytown USA, which documents Firesign's live show of the same name from their American tour of 1974, the year of their peak popularity. Get yours here (firesigntheatre.bandcamp.com...)."
	5:18pm Irwin: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:13 Loved Firesign back in the day. Their stuff doesn't hold up. In fact, removed from the context of their times, little of it makes any sense. Also, lots of dumb drug in-jokes. Meh.
	👻 5:19pm Ken From Hyde Park: The Necks we're hearing: thenecksau.bandcamp.com...
	5:19pm Stevel: Ian Shoales almost killed me. I was driving and listening to his "I [Heart} my [dog head] routine and nearly drove off of the freeway.
	5:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Irwin @5:18 See.
	5:20pm Wind: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:03 greetings to u 2
	5:21pm Dean: "In fact, removed from the context of their times, little of it makes any sense." You know, they say that about William Shakespeare, too.
	👻 5:21pm rrg: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:11 Handy, you should listen on your trip home, too. That's what I used to do when I was commuting on Wednesday afternoons.
	5:22pm Wind: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:11 cheers
	5:22pm Handy Haversack: ↳ rrg @5:21 I don't have any means of doing so, rrg. I don't use a cell phone, and portable radios aren't going to catch the signal in the subway. It's OK -- it's reading time!
	5:25pm brainiac: I'd like to pepper spray ol' Gus B.
	5:26pm Wind: Gus my love
	5:27pm egould: Cups and balls
	5:27pm G: He must have a copy of _What Would Bodenheim Do?”
	5:27pm -жеи: Now that Barbara Walters has passed away, Gus has the last remaining "Middle Atlantic" accent left in the media
	5:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Up on the Roof" by "Bang Bang Band Girl" What a kewl cover.
	5:29pm Handy Haversack: My dad had a Dylan Thomas-Maxwell Bodenheim story. I think I've told it here? I forgot they're brothers.
	5:29pm Irwin: ↳ -жеи @5:27 I'll pass along that "compliment" to Mr. Bodenheim.
	5:29pm rsj: sometimes i miss irwin's old "kenny G" character
	👻 5:29pm Ken From Hyde Park: The Old Codger is due to host the Techtonic program on April 3. "Don't reply to those pyramid scheme letters," he'll advise us.
	5:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ -жеи @5:27 MidAtlantic as in half USA half UK - or as in you states down there some mistakenly refer to as being 'Northeast' ?
	5:32pm egould: Teenage Fanclub is pretty good band.
	5:33pm Carmichael: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:32 The "katherine Hepburn" accent
	5:33pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:32 Typically it refers to the imaginary "meeting place" in the Atlantic, bits of British diction and American diction. Cary Grant, a good "meet in the middle" English speaking voice.
	5:34pm lazy rider: Eddy Current, FUKYEAH!!!
	5:35pm brainiac: ↳ Carmichael @5:33 "My she was yar"
	5:35pm egould: Eddie Current Supression Ring is pretty good band.
	5:35pm Irwin: ↳ lazy rider @5:34 I know nothing about this band but like what I've heard. Info?
	5:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:33 Okay ...always thot of like 70s RawkStars being that - BabaWawa never made me think 'England' @ all - CaryGrant? Hm...
	5:36pm -жеи: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:32 Mid-Atlantic accent as in: en.wikipedia.org...
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ -жеи @5:36 Okay. Affected then...
	👻 5:37pm rrg: ↳ -жеи @5:36 Bennett Cerf had that accent too.
	5:37pm egould: Aussie weirdo rock. Reminds me of Flipper? They can hump the leg off a riff. Good band listen to more of them.
	👻 5:38pm rrg: That Flipper, he's pretty smart for a fish.
	5:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Memory Lane" by "Eddy Current Suppression Ring" I know 'Eddy Current Suppression' from checking ball bearings in a factory for magnetism - indeed passed thru a ring.
	5:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ rrg @5:38 ...is that where the Fishheads went ??...
	5:41pm -жеи: ↳ rrg @5:37 Sideshow Bob also has the Mid-Atlantic accent. So it's down to Gus and Sideshow Bob to keep it alive.
	5:42pm Stevel: ↳ Song: "Sunday Papers" by "Joe Jackson" JJ is one of the great lyric spitters, and then some
	5:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I've had English people ask me what part of England I was from ...I was gonna ask them...
	5:43pm Dean: Peak Mid-A has to have been William F. Buckley, Jr.
	5:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...everybody thinks English people all speak Posh ...Clay's lousy @ it for instance - for all his gifts...
	👻 5:44pm Will thee Sound Guy: just now having a chance to chime in.... Happy first show of 2023 Irwin!!! Hope everyone is well! been enjoying the tunes!
	5:46pm Carmichael: ↳ -жеи @5:41 Slack-jawed yokels ...
	5:46pm brainiac: This McCartney bed music always make my eyes spiral all cartoonish and such.
	5:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Dean @5:43 ...he was peak something...
	👻 5:46pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ -жеи @5:41 Now I need to find out what accent Lunchlady Doris has.
	5:47pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @5:46 I suggest "Eastern seaboard working shlub"
	5:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Bass concentrates the mind'... - very GusBodenheim
	5:48pm Laura L: If there is any subject in which Gus Bodenheim is not an expert, I don't want to know about it.
	5:48pm coelacanth∅: RR in grade school kids often asked me if i was from england. i've assumed it's because i spoke fairly proper american english. back when there was such a thing.
	5:48pm brainiac: ↳ brainiac @5:46 😵‍💫
	5:48pm Handy Haversack: "Nuthin' cracks a turtle lahk Leeeon Yeriss." Now, I was led to expect solos?
	5:50pm coelacanth∅: bass concentrates the nature, as far as i'm concerned!
	5:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:50 ...fingers stretching ...bowels loosening...
	5:52pm Irwin: ↳ Laura L @5:48 Gus is one of the most well-read men in Courtney's inner circle. Literature, potboilers, how-to's, bios, he is ombibulous.
	5:52pm coelacanth∅: haha ...should i have said "loins"?
	5:52pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "New Time Shuffle" by "Stanley Turrentine" Mighty slick piece here! I dig!
	5:53pm Handy Haversack: Many thanks, Irwin! Now that's infotainment! Later on, all!
	5:53pm Irwin: ↳ Irwin @5:52 The only thing he doesn't read, apparently, are contracts, which is how he ended up on this program.
	5:54pm Wind: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:53 adios
	5:54pm Laura L: Nearly the top of the hour already--thanks, Irwin, for another very fine show today. Here's to ombibulousness!
	5:55pm brainiac: Thanks, Irwin. Today's show was, as the kids say, "a gas."
	5:55pm Irwin: ↳ Laura L @5:54 You keep makin' 'em, we'll keep readin' 'em.
	5:55pm Dean: Signing loan papers many years ago I found a bunch of errors. Reported them to the loan guy. "Huh, nobody ever reads these," he replied.
	5:55pm Wind: ↳ Irwin @5:52 How can one meet this infamous Mr. G.Bodenheim?
	5:55pm Matt from Springfield: Thanks as always for brightening up this afternoon, Irwin! Take care everyone, see you Chusidiers next time!
	5:56pm Wind: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:55 Bye Matt, Happy new Year :)
	👻 5:56pm Will thee Sound Guy: Thank you Irwin and Gus!!! Great show!
	5:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...will be chewing over 'ombibulous' for a minute... ~ TY Always Mr. DJ IDC Sir ~
	5:56pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Wind @5:56 Same to you! :)
	5:58pm coelacanth∅: yes right back to you Wind!
	👻 5:58pm rrg: Thanks, Irwin and Pals. Soon it will be dinnertime, but I trust we'll all be back here in 165 hours.
	5:59pm Dean: "Ombibulous" looks like a portmanteau of "omnibibulous" and "ambibulous." Thus, Mr. B reads all books, i.e., both of them. But "bibulous" refers to drink.
	5:59pm egould: Thanks Irwin. Brilliant.
	5:59pm Dean: Good sax, by the way.
	6:00pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Irwin!
	6:00pm Wind: Tada!
	6:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Dean @5:59 ...or he imbibes books ...which seems in character more or less...
