	5:04pm Chris Hiatt: Ken, Olivia, and all youse!
	5:05pm Pauly from Clifton: Hey Ken, Olivia, gang!
	🚽 5:05pm Handy Haversack: OK, friends, we're still here in the phone room! Please keep the pledges coming. Call 800 989 9368. If TWO people call at once, one of you gets to speak to K8 instead of me. Flood those lines for safety!
	5:06pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Hi Ken and Olivia!!! When will Monty Hall reopen? Will it ever reopen?? I miss live music on the west shore of the Hudson River.
	5:07pm Carmichael: Hello Kenneth. Could you expound on the ongoing struggle with the gubmint re: non profit status?
	5:07pm Brian in UK: In real time that is 30%?
	5:07pm Magenta: Yeah Handy and K8!
	5:07pm yippie: the wfmu marathon helps me learn about money
	5:07pm McGroovey: I suppose Swag for Life, and online pledging in general, can make the phones feel slow.
	5:08pm roc: You got my pledge a week ago with that mailer. You shouldnt have let be bust so early ken
	5:08pm Daniel GListener #234723: Reporting for GListening Duty! Good Job new Swag4Lifers!!!! We Love U
	🚽 5:08pm Will thee Sound Guy: I heard me
	5:08pm DanFA: Question. What types of food have volunteers been cooking?
	5:08pm Cooh John: I guess I am a completist. What is the icon for donating to the state of the station?
	🚽 5:09pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Cooh John @5:08 I think you get Ken's anarchy sign!
	5:09pm B R M: ↳ McGroovey @5:07 Well, just look at the pre-marathon pledging, you'd want to be past 50% by now as you're 50% through the marathon timeframe, but have raised about 30% (?) in real time... also, the goal is higher this year, but yes.
	5:10pm Carmichael: Hopefully a FMU flag, Cooh.
	🚽 5:10pm DjLorraine: ↳ Cooh John @5:08 You get an A+
	🚽 5:10pm Handy Haversack: The Hearty White show at Monty Hall was wonderful.
	5:10pm Listener Robert: Ken, it sounds like what you're saying is that SFL and pre-marathon receipts are now accounted for realistically and should be comforting, yet it's hard to break out of the mindset of getting pledges in real time as encouragement.
	🚽 5:11pm David (in London): Am here to cheer on the state of the station.
	5:11pm Carmichael: And an A for citizenship.
	5:11pm McGroovey: All aboard for [...list of train stations I can't remember...] and Cuuuucamonga! ~[regular gag by Mel Blanc, when he was a regular on the Jack Benny show]
	5:11pm K8: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:10 I agree! Hearty White is a star!
	5:12pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Happy to hear about Monty Hall. The more gas & toll money I spend schlepping to Brooklyn & [ugh] Queens to see live music, that's less cash II have to throw at WFMU.
	🚽 5:13pm Handy Haversack: 800 989 9368 to make sure those copper wires don't achieve sentience and rise up to strangle us all!
	🚽 5:13pm PaulRobeson1923: The AOL chat rooms were better in 1998
	5:13pm ButtWeenies: I’d like to see you start a program where I can have my swag for life tshirts directly sent to a homeless shelter. There’s be legions of homeless wearing WFMU shirts and then you and Andy can have a show were you guess whether the T-shirt wearers on the street are homeless or listeners.
	🚽 5:13pm HyperDose: Sounds like a fun project!
	5:13pm roc: Make the app use less battery and work better
	🚽 5:13pm Will thee Sound Guy: Let's wire it up!!!!
	5:13pm K8: YOU can help make these improvements that Ken is talking about happen by calling me and Handy--800-989-9368! Come on now...
	🚽 5:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: Adopt-a-manager - www.flickr.com...
	5:14pm Chris Hiatt: Can you talk a little bit about the phone app? You guys happy with it?
	5:14pm DanFA: Ken will be kept alive through the miracle of science in all perpetuity.
	🚽 5:14pm Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ roc @5:13 I stream AAC on VLC... Pretty decent battery life
	🚽 5:15pm Magenta: Thank you, Ken!
	5:15pm Brian in UK: Succession planning is essential.
	5:15pm Joe B: can you talk about the unofficial FMU app and why that should be used?
	5:15pm melinda: Power-Troika!
	5:15pm DanFA: Stickin' it to the patriarchy.
	5:15pm herb.nyc: ↳ Magenta @5:15 Magenta, say the word. My HIT MAN is at the ready.
	5:15pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Joe B @5:15 iPhone WFMU app is fantastic. hifivicky is no fan of the Android offerings.
	5:16pm McGroovey: We hope Ken is there forever, but there are great people at the station to keep the ship running.
	5:16pm melinda: awkward question but I've thought it myself
	5:16pm ButtWeenies: Ken is going to be replaced by AI
	🚽 5:16pm David (in London): Props to champion sheet-folder Kelly Jones.
	5:16pm paddy in matawan: ken don't go
	5:16pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Carmichael @5:10 I have enough t-shirts and stickers. Gimme a damn flag to fly high.
	5:16pm Carmichael: As long as Andy doesn’t replace him
	5:16pm Robm: ↳ ButtWeenies @5:16 Oh god i hope not
	5:16pm Joe B: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @5:15 yes, I am referring to the android version(s)
	5:17pm Brian in UK: Ken/Olivia dare I ask, are there too many shows on the station?
	5:17pm B R M: I did downloads, and prefer them!
	5:17pm Mike D.: I was wondering if Gov Murphy’s plan to make more liquor licenses available is implemented, will WFMU look to get one for Monty Hall?
	5:17pm ButtWeenies: Andy can’t remember the number to the station let alone work any technology no matter how antiquated
	5:17pm Marie: I feel like this is extremely presumptuous but I think EFD would be a good station manager (noting that Ken is super special and can never really be replaced)
	🚽 5:17pm Magenta: ↳ Carmichael @5:16 @Carmichael: that's what I was afraid of.
	🚽 5:17pm PaulRobeson1923: 1998… Putt-Putt Goes to The Moon and the more riskay AOL Chat Rooms…
	🚽 5:17pm Handy Haversack: Give us a call! Otherwise, we might just have to call each other! 800 989 9368
	5:17pm Marie: EFD or Kelly Jones...
	5:18pm Listener Robert: ↳ B R M @5:09 That would depend on HOW they're accounting for SFL receipts. If it were me, I'd adjust the goal downward and credit the SFL with a multiplier for your experience on the average amount of churn in subscribership.
	5:18pm Deano de los Muertos: Hey Stache and Olivia
	5:18pm herb.nyc: I am happy to come to Monty to pick up my swag. Or, have neutral sites for us to go (like Amazon boxes. Boo, hiss, to Amazon)
	5:18pm Jeezy: My question for Ken is: What wa the worst pairing of DJs ever for the marathon and exactly how badly did it go?
	5:18pm Tommy in Neversink: I would pledge with out the prizes , I just take them cause they are offered. I'd pay extra for tee shirts
	5:18pm K8: Pledges help Ken to answer all these questions...let's fuel his brain. CALL ME: 800-989-9368. Pledge, pledge, pledge!
	🚽 5:19pm PaulRobeson1923: Wake & Bake, Forever
	5:19pm ButtWeenies: Dean it’s I ButtWeenies from Raritan
	5:19pm B R M: ↳ Listener Robert @5:18 yeah, I'm just going by the "Pledge Now" meter, which included the SFL pre-pledge total when the marathon started. 👍
	5:19pm Lee from Nutley: Hi Ken, what happened to the pledge map of years past? I like seeing where pledgers live around the US and the world. I don't see it on the FMU site.
	5:19pm Deano de los Muertos: Clay Pigeon is a god.
	🚽 5:20pm Erin in TO: I'll happily accept my sub-dermal implant
	🚽 5:20pm Handy Haversack: Saw your pledge, Erin! You rock!
	5:20pm JetBoy of Astoria: It’s true, the age demographic seems to skew older - cough cough - like myself
	5:20pm Ciggy: I enjoy State of the Station Give me Stats Give me the Future
	5:20pm Jim: You need to find a way of setting a fire under slacker swag for lifers (like me). I became a swag for lifer many years ago (Hurricane Sandy sounds about right) and only this year did I up my monthly contribution. Maybe some strategy to get it through our/my thick skull that the real value of a swag for life donation goes down every year... so UP IT every year!
	5:20pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ ButtWeenies @5:19 haha, a little treasure
	5:20pm ButtWeenies: Auction off an evening with Andy. You have to hang out with him you you don’t pledge.
	5:20pm herb.nyc: Subdural implants, haha. Wait. I just donated blood. That’s when you put the implant in. Tell the donor “oh, look over there. It’s Brad Pitt!”
	5:20pm Quinn02: Aren't there any famous people who appreciate WMFU and would donate a large chunk of money? like Kanye or somebody like that who can drop $100K like nothing.
	5:21pm K8: My very good' friend's kid, who is 8 years old, LOVES Wake!
	5:21pm JB: Yeah you should definitely keep reviewing the amount of swag you give. You're so very generous and can get away with offering less.
	5:21pm DanFA: Question. Do you think using TikTok will attract new listeners, despite Mark Hurst's objections?
	🚽 5:21pm Erin in TO: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:20 Thanks Handy, gotta do my part!
	5:21pm JB: #MiniGlisteners!!
	5:21pm Marie: I think more R&B and hip hop programming would attract more youngins
	🚽 5:21pm Webhamster Henry: Can the streams get equal standing on the website homepage?
	5:21pm RevErie: Any chance of the return of DJRay Boogie? Asking for a friend.
	5:21pm JetBoy of Astoria: He means it gives him a tentpole
	5:22pm DanFA: Ken is the Brian Cox of WFMU.
	🚽 5:22pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @5:19 The Highest Power is not a word and yer still looking out yer window for another traveling man (LiKE CLaY Pigeon!)
	5:22pm Robm: ↳ DanFA @5:21 I have mixed feelings about tictok
	5:22pm GrandWazooo99: No Old Codger premium !! very disappointing. need to hear those 78's
	5:22pm rx scabin: I look forward to hits.
	5:22pm JB: Word of mouth. Tell your friends!
	5:22pm Barbie: I used to listen to WFMU all day and night because I heard music I’ve never heard before and now it’s no longer true. Why the new direction? Swagger here love WFMU
	5:23pm Robm: ↳ JB @5:22 I do as much as i can
	5:23pm DanFA: ↳ Robm @5:22 I think some DJs are already on TikTok. The puppy bowl next weekend will be broadcast on Instagram. Video at least.
	🚽 5:23pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Ciggy @5:20 Give me, peace on Earth 🎶
	5:23pm ButtWeenies: Get a booth at the Trenton Punk Rock Flea Market to raise awareness for the station and sell records there!
	5:23pm Morphe': I've said before and not sure there is a solution But If ya save yer $$$ to soak Andy --- ya cannot show the love to all one's other Favs...
	🚽 5:24pm Handy Haversack: ↳ DanFA @5:23 Isn't that tonight? Bruce is here. I have been priming him with Rabbit Power Bites!
	5:24pm Ramona: Any more thought about dedicating time to set up Artist and Song listings for car radios? (Vs having to pull over if you want to look up the song/artist name.)
	5:24pm Chris Hiatt: The NJ liquor authority is the worst.
	5:24pm DanFA: Jesus Christ. $700K?
	5:24pm B R M: There is a new liquor license in NJ that started after the pandemic that is for non-profit theaters with more than 50 seats and less than 1000 and they do not cost the full price, only $2500. Give a look! We just applied for one for our movie theater!
	5:25pm JetBoy of Astoria: I bring a sixer
	5:25pm K8: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:24 Puppy Bowl is at 8pm tonight!
	5:25pm Switchblade Batman: How about some sort of marijuana license? Turn monty hall into a dispensary during the day?
	🚽 5:25pm Ken From Hyde Park: Will we expect DJs remote broadcasting during Infrastructure Week?
	5:25pm Stevel: Can a vendor bring a license to an event in addition to the 12? (don't need to answer that on air.)
	5:25pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ B R M @5:24 Oooh, that's great.
	🚽 5:25pm Handy Haversack: ↳ JetBoy of Astoria @5:25 I bring an eleven-pack.
	5:25pm DanFA: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:24 Yes. It is tonight. My bad.
	5:25pm McGroovey: ↳ Barbie @5:22 So you mean that you're only hearing music you've heard before? I have not had that experience.
	5:25pm roc: Do byob
	5:26pm Joe B: ↳ Stevel @5:25 no that would fall under the 12 per year
	🚽 5:26pm Magenta: ↳ Switchblade Batman @5:25 Jonesy suggested that on today's show. I actually think it could be a good idea if feasible!
	5:26pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ K8 @5:25 Oh cool, I thought I had missed it last night
	5:26pm R2: Question: I love marathon swag, but I hate the wait. If they cost so much to ship is there any way to just come pick them up to help save money? Perhaps even have a pick up day?
	5:26pm Eric: Can you accept "donations" for beer and wine at Monty Hall?
	5:26pm Switchblade Batman: ↳ Magenta @5:26 Great minds. I missed that earlier.
	5:26pm Joe B: ↳ roc @5:25 a money-losing proposition for most rock shows.we tried it many times
	5:26pm JetBoy of Astoria: I have a question - was selling the parking lot, in hindsight, a good idea or maybe necessary evil?
	5:26pm B R M: more on the revised non-profit theatrical liquor license: www.nj.com...
	5:26pm Listener Robert: ↳ B R M @5:19 My understanding (which may be wrong) is that pre-marathon one-time donations from the beginning of the calendar year get tacked onto the total immediately. However, I don't think it would be unfairly low to add only SFL monthly receipts to that point, and unfairly high to add a projection of the SFL amount for the year. What you need to anticipate is the percentage of SFL who would revoke their subscription over the remaining months, multiply that by the SFL receipts, and add that. I think that's realistic.
	5:27pm K8: If we all get pledging a little more, I'll go find one of those dudes who have 12 liquor licenses and...convince them to give us one. So call! 800-989-9368
	5:27pm Marc15: What is the status of the WFMU Record Fare post-COVID?
	5:27pm Switchblade Batman: ↳ Switchblade Batman @5:26 I'd come in from Brooklyn to buy my weed at WFMU. I know it's going to a good cause, probably good stuff.
	5:27pm McGroovey: ↳ roc @5:25 They do that. But the real money in having a venue (and the difference between making and losing money) comes from having a proper liquor license.
	5:27pm K8: ↳ Marc15 @5:27 There will be record fair again for the first time post-COVID on October 14 and 15 this year at the Knockdown Center in Queens!
	5:28pm wenzo: Just tuning in… is this the state of the station?
	🚽 5:28pm Handy Haversack: ↳ R2 @5:26 Having seen the packing process as a volunteer, I think this would be very difficult to manage, esp. given the size of the staff and volunteer availability. It would massively increase the admin for SWAG delivery. That said, I kind of love the wait. I think of it not as linear but as messianic time. SWAGVENT will come!
	5:28pm B R M: ↳ Listener Robert @5:26 Absolutely! agree, you want to cover attrition... plus, its a lot of "pledges" that may not be fulfilled etc. I hear you.
	5:28pm roc: As soon as you get north of the bronx the station takes a dump
	5:29pm Juli: I should reaally donate again
	5:29pm Listener Robert: ↳ Barbie @5:22 Are you sure it's a new direction, and not just that by now you've heard so much that not as much is new to you?
	🚽 5:29pm Ken From Hyde Park: If someone were to donate a van to WFMU, could said van be used to deliver swag? I picture a van covered with Woof Moo advertising to raise awareness.
	🚽 5:29pm HyperDose: Woo raking in the dough!
	5:30pm Ben G: this Spring, with COVID restrictions loosening, will volunteer numbers open up a little more for packing and shipping Swag?
	5:30pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Ken, if you need a lobbyist who can help with your liquor license issues, HMU. I'll charge my special rate because I dig you guys.
	5:30pm Brian in UK: Staff costs normally outweigh non-staff costs.
	5:30pm sufferwords: 400k x 8 employees- give 'em a raise!!!
	5:31pm Marc15: Thank you, K8
	5:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Webhamster Henry @5:21 I've been wishing for a Daily Schedule Page across all the Streams - as there is for each Stream for the whole week. That is - for each Day of the Week you'd have timeslots in Rows & every Stream in Columns. So many new Programs on every Stream - I'm finding it ever moe challenging to juggle them ! A good problem to have obviously ! - but...
	🚽 5:31pm Cp304: podcast addict is great, all 4 streams are available
	5:31pm JB: Offer a swag pick-up party! With booze, and donkeys!
	5:32pm Ciggy: The Woof Moo unofficial App is a killer app Thanks Steven
	5:32pm dday: Hi Ken & Olivia. I sent this to Ken a while back regarding liquor licences. No go? www.greenbaumlaw.com...
	5:32pm DanFA: I think I see the Mothership coming!
	🚽 5:32pm Handy Haversack: We had phone calls! Let's do it again! 800 989 9368
	5:32pm Ciggy: *Stephen
	5:32pm K8: All right, friends...we just had a 2 phones in use situation. It can happen again...let's pay for some of this good stuff Ken is talking about for the FUTURE of WFMU. Give me a ring...800-989-9368
	5:33pm Charles: I love the streams!
	5:33pm Lerch: Omg, thanks for the heads up on Woof Moo app!
	5:33pm Officer Pupp: I love the satellite channels. Rock n Soul Radio is amazing.
	5:33pm B R M: I love the variety of the streams, allows me to find new shows and music at all times.
	5:33pm melinda: I like the variety too
	🚽 5:33pm PaulRobeson1923: Any movement towards the - Don’t kill me Mommy! I want a chance to hear WFMU! The FUN 91.1fm! Billboard? approaching the Midtown Tunnel?
	5:33pm Robm: ↳ Charles @5:33 Charles i agree lot less trolling in the streams
	🚽 5:34pm Magenta: Lovely crowd in the phone room!
	5:34pm K8: Okay...Handy is on phone one. This is the time. CALL ME: 800-989-9368
	5:34pm Joe B: ↳ dday @5:32 like Ken said on the air, the Jersey City tavern lobby is intertwined with the JC police, and they are not supportive.
	5:34pm Marie: Yay, Jeremiah!
	5:34pm K8: ↳ Magenta @5:34 And thanks to you, Magenta, for being on the phones earlier today! The phone room is the place to be!
	5:35pm dday: ↳ Joe B @5:34 Got it Joe. Thanks. Power Politics in JC like everywhere else
	5:35pm Matt from OK: Is there any way around federal regulations preventing higher power FM stations from using Low Power repeaters? I remember there have been changes to FCC rules in the past because the right wing stations were buying up every available LP frequency.
	5:35pm K8: ↳ Joe B @5:34 Can these folx be finessed? I would think another music venue brings more people to the city, which makes more money for all the bars, right?
	5:35pm Joe B: ↳ dday @5:35 perhaps as these new regulations become more commonplace, things might change. but currently, they are dug in
	5:36pm Chris in Taiwan: No bank runs here - yet.
	5:36pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Joe B @5:34 There's gotta be a way around that. I mean, maybe I'll be wearing a pair of concrete shoes for saying this...
	5:36pm TMc: Is there any reason that the DJs on the Rock n Soul stream leave the reverb on when the music is playing (about 50% of the time)? So distracting that I have to turn it off.
	5:36pm ButtWeenies: Let’s do another billboard fundraiser that Manson billboard was amazing. Get one with Dahmer and you’ll be on the news instantly. Or an RIP bobbdylan one
	🚽 5:37pm Webhamster Henry: Human programs. No offense, Owl Sun snd Bunny
	🚽 5:38pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Matt from OK @5:35 Remember when Micheal Savage was air Beheading clips on Air? 770Am radio
	5:38pm wenzo: I’d contribute to the rip Dylan one… gotta have a hot air balloon crashing in it tho
	5:38pm stevej: love that answer!!!
	🚽 5:38pm PaulRobeson1923: Airing*
	5:38pm dday: Ken: If all goes well on Wed. I'll re-start my SWAG4LIFE. by the end of Marathon
	5:39pm K8: Okay, this has been great, friends...phones are ringing. Let's keep them ringing...I don't ever want to have to worry about WFMU not being in our lives, you know what I'm saying? Call me: 800-989-9368
	5:39pm ButtWeenies: You got a date Wednesday dday?
	5:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...if there were a way to see what's currently on every Stream @ once on the HomePage (whereas now you have to click on each Stream link to see each one) - that alone would be helpful ? No idea of course how challenging a computer programming challenge that would be... I imagine some spiffy graphic like a Multiband Radio Dial... Would that be a reasonable use of HomePage space ? After all - why have ever more Programs on more Streams if people don't even see them ? & other Functions like the Song Search ...even the Program Schedules as they are now - are a little obscure to find ? These are not major critiques of course - just ideas...
	🚽 5:39pm Handy Haversack: Just got a first-time pledger! You rock, Ben in Montclair! And Joe and Shannon, too!
	5:40pm wenzo: Notice how Ken studiously avoids addressing the Old Codger allegations (revelations?) re. The parking lot or parking lots
	5:40pm K8: Shout out to Barbie P.! Thank you for your pledge!
	5:40pm Listener Robert: ↳ ButtWeenies @5:36 For years I've had an idea -- even a design -- for one on US 206 northbound to tell people to switch from 91.1 to 90.1 "over the hill". I haven't had the initiative to do a kickstarter and I'd need WFMU's permission to use their intellectual property.
	5:40pm Joe B: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:39 the song search covers all of the alt streams
	5:40pm K8: And Susan P! Thank you for your pledge!
	5:40pm ButtWeenies: I’m mad about that lot I used to do my drugs there
	5:40pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ K8 @5:35 There is a path to argue these things in NY, but it's still challenging for a lot of reasons. Not impossible though. Of course things might be murkier in the Dirty Jerz.
	5:40pm JeremyB: Question: I once heard Ken joke on PBS that WFMU caters to dozens of listeners at any given moment... do you have any idea how many people worldwide listen to the station?
	🚽 5:41pm Handy Haversack: Ken: Question: Is there a way to keep the songs played by the AI DJs from being listed in the Basic Search function? Also: I love the Basic Search function and how it DOES NOT use Google!
	5:41pm herb.nyc: Sex and Broadcasting! I had a bit role in it, the phone room. I am happy to do interviews and tell ya more.
	5:41pm B R M: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:39 I would propose just adding the stream schedule homepages to the PROGRAMMING drop down menu on the homepage would help a lot
	5:41pm ButtWeenies: KB lethargy is the cause of and solution to all life’s problems
	5:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Joe B @5:40 Which is great ...but where is the Link to the Search from the HomePage to begin with ? It's not real obvious, is my point.
	5:42pm K8: Morale Pledges! Let's not let me and Handy get downtrodden...give us a call and pledge! 800-989-9368
	🚽 5:42pm Magenta: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:39 I'd like that too. I've been wanting to listen to the streams more but right now it's a smidge inconvenient to see what's on there and when.
	5:42pm B R M: ↳ B R M @5:41 They are under the LISTEN link tho
	5:43pm rx scabin: On top of.
	5:43pm Joe B: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:41 i agree it is impossible to find because it is called "advanced search" instead of playlist or song search. it's under the programming menu on the homepage
	🚽 5:43pm Elena: ↳ Lee from Nutley @5:19 Did I miss the pledge map answer? Is it completely gone? I'd like it back.
	🚽 5:43pm dans507: I looked up Sex and Broadcasting. It dates to 2014.
	5:43pm Juli: Swag for life BBs
	5:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ B R M @5:42 Yeah - why not give HomePage space to the actual Programming more ? In that sense.
	5:45pm Joe B: ↳ Chris Hiatt @5:40 that kind of effort is beyond our means. and not just financially. time and energy-wise as well. it is near impossible to prioritize something like that at this point
	5:45pm Gordon Slumbers: ↳ dans507 @5:43 S&B was shot over a few years, around 2010-2012, to my recollection.
	🚽 5:45pm David (in London): 20 percenter here. So love being able to listen to FMU here in the UK. Remember first hearing FMU on a trip to NYC in 1996, and fell in love instantly.
	5:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This is always informative, interesting & of course relevant.
	5:46pm Robm: ↳ David (in London) @5:45 Lot better then the beeb or global?
	5:47pm Listener Robert: I listen to Uncle Michael via his Twitch to save WFMU's Drummer stream the bandwidth.
	5:47pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: I’ve been listening on FM since 1987 or thereabouts.
	5:47pm ike-o: Peace
	5:47pm melinda: I met another FMU listener from Nantucket at the Yo La Tengo show here in Asheville last night. It was neat.
	5:47pm K8: ↳ Chris Hiatt @5:40 Yeah, I hear you. It's just like...sometimes business owners need to see that when we create something that makes money for everyone, that's a good thing. No need to hoard and be weird with each other.
	🚽 5:47pm Handy Haversack: The Puppy Bowl competitors are all wilded up and ready to rrrrrrrrrumble! We had to close the phone room door!
	5:48pm B R M: ↳ Chris Hiatt @5:40 I run a non-profit in an NJ town with multiple $1,000,000 licenses and we worked with the City Council to get a liquor license in progress for our 500 seat movie theater. It is a lift and you need a lawyer, but the license should only cost $2500 a year. That said, we have not been granted the liuecsne yet and have been working on it for a year. Monty Hall would 100% qualify, but you need the city ordinance and the license approved, etc. A process.
	5:48pm Peter G in Boonton: Regarding the cruise, does a kilobuck get a single or a pair of tickets?
	🚽 5:48pm Will thee Sound Guy: We love you FMU!!!
	5:48pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Joe B @5:45 Yeah it's a whole thing. You have to lawyer up and then dig a trench.
	🚽 5:48pm Handy Haversack: ↳ David (in London) @5:45 I am inside the building, David. And it told me it loves you too.
	5:48pm K8: BIG THANKS to David F. for his pledge! We only have thirteen more minutes on these phones, me and Handy (today). Give us a call...we'd love to hear from you: 800-989-9368
	5:49pm Joe B: ↳ B R M @5:48 right. city council, city ordinance ... we've been down that path already here
	🚽 5:49pm David (in London): ↳ Robm @5:46 There are some great shows here on BBC6Music and Resonance, but when you've got Bryce and Mark Hurst and Tony Coulter and Carol Crow and Mary Wing...and and and and, it's hard to go anywhere else. Plus, the community here is so strong.
	5:49pm McGroovey: I listen both by radio, and online. Sometimes when radio reception at home gets bad (usually that's in the daytime when it's sunny), I'll switch to the app. Or if I'm traveling, I'll listen on the app.
	🚽 5:49pm Handy Haversack: Brian in the UK -- just saw your pledge come in, friend! You're the best!
	5:49pm Tom and Julia: Another way to listen if you have a Roku TV surveillance device: I made Roku app. You can listen to all the streams and recent archives. Will be updated in next couple weeks Tom of Tom and Julia
	🚽 5:49pm PaulRobeson1923: I can’t find an image of it with WFMU search - the Bullbord idea “Don't kill me Mommy! I wanna listen to WFMU!” Do Billboards work? Cost VS return in New Pledging GListeners?
	🚽 5:50pm David (in London): ↳ Handy Haversack @5:48 Hurrah, thanks Handles, my love is not unrequited!
	5:50pm Robm: ↳ David (in London) @5:49 I agree and i have noticed that there are people from Russia and iran listening
	5:50pm K8: All right y'all...Handy is on Phone 1. Who wants me to pick up Phone 2? Come on...800-989-9368!
	5:50pm dday: ↳ ButtWeenies @5:39 yep
	🚽 5:51pm Will thee Sound Guy: Not me, S4L!
	5:51pm wenzo: There should be a wfmu bar(& pot club)… it could have different rooms with the different streams playing… and a staff curated juke box of course
	5:51pm Brian in UK: Olivia, I meant all pledges not just SfL.
	5:51pm B R M: ↳ Joe B @5:49 yes, But like I said, Governor Murphy created a new license that is ONLY for non-profit theaters, so it non-transferrable and is NOT an asset like the other licenses so it doesn't de-value existing license owners assets. All of the license owners in our town are fine with us getting a license... law only passed in 2020 and then COVID hit and no one applied, but you guys would qualify. 👍
	5:52pm K8: WE CAN DO THIS...60 pledges...bring it, people! MAKE MY PHONE RING: 800-989-9368
	5:52pm gorp: Any reason you avoid grants? I volunteer to write some applications anytime
	5:53pm paddy in matawan: please grandfather me into credit card payments I've never missed one
	5:53pm McGroovey: ↳ B R M @5:51 But Monty Hall isn't necessarily just a theater. Bars in Jersey City might see it as a night club, and therefore a competitor.
	🚽 5:53pm Handy Haversack: Just got to talk to Destroit on the phone! I love this place!
	5:53pm Joe B: ↳ B R M @5:51 yeah we know that. the one we tried to get was called a club license, like they have in a VFW. they even blocked that. nothing has changed here in JC regardless of a new state law.
	5:54pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ B R M @5:48 This is really interesting, would love to connect to discuss more. I sent you a request to connect through the WFMU website.
	5:54pm Destroit: Digging the updates Ken and Olivia. Nice talkin to ya Handy!
	5:54pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @5:53 spot on mcgroov
	5:54pm B R M: ↳ McGroovey @5:53 Monty Hall hosts "theatrical or musical performances" so it counts.
	5:55pm dday: ↳ B R M @5:51 That's the one I linked to above @5:32 BRM. I'm sure it's time consuming & $$$$ intensive from the lawyers side. If local pressure wasn't the issue it would probably be a path to go down
	5:55pm Switchblade Batman: Damn I actually use the Roku app. It's really handy when I'm working at home.
	5:56pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Joe B @5:53 Them blocking that sounds pretty shady.
	5:56pm listener 126464: DUI • ASSAULT • TAX EVASION • POLKA 1-800-989-9368
	5:56pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: @JoeB club license would work for WFMU. Holders of consumption licenses are not pleased with nearby club licenses.
	5:56pm McGroovey: ↳ B R M @5:54 But in NJ, the law isn't always The Law.
	5:56pm K8: Big thanks to Ally L for her pledge!
	5:57pm dday: ↳ McGroovey @5:56 That goes for the wHole of the U.S.
	5:57pm RevErie: The WFMU Roku App is still active
	🚽 5:57pm PaulRobeson1923: the rarest of cultural beings- Patrons. NYC is home to many Billionaires and Multi-Millionaires- I know some of you my friends LoVE Music!!!! And Freedom of Expression!! How do we connect with the handful of folks who would be able to make that kind (kind) of pledge?
	5:57pm paddy in matawan: how many Terabytes are the archives?!
	5:57pm Destroit: ↳ listener 126464 @5:56 Lol. Awesome.
	5:57pm goes211: Any more info on Apple TV app? I just searched and nothing?
	🚽 5:57pm Will thee Sound Guy: I remember that...
	5:57pm Charles: What's the bucket hat thing that was mentioned on the news page?
	5:57pm Ramona: Why does the station prefer monthly donations (swag for life), vs pay in full donation of the same amount?
	🚽 5:57pm Will thee Sound Guy: Super educational
	🚽 5:58pm HyperDose: I remember writing a letter for that. Damn the man!
	5:58pm Chris Hiatt: Every day is a school day at WFMU!
	5:58pm Ike: Oops, I missed most of the pirate-related talk while in transit.
	5:58pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ HyperDose @5:58 Same here
	5:58pm luka: musta tuned in for Diarrhea Lady
	5:58pm Officer Pupp: Oh yeah I remember that - I emailed about the educational value I had found in the station.
	5:59pm B R M: ↳ dday @5:55 yeah I get it, I'm not here to argue with Joe Block, just sayin, I am in process on this for our theater and have been doing a ton of work on it, but if WFMU thinks it is out of reach, who am I to argue? @McGroovey - the law is the law, but you need the city to grant the license ... and yes it can be an obstacle.
	5:59pm K8: We're down to TWO MINUTES...let's give me and Handy each one more pledge call! Pretty please!!! 800-989-9368
	🚽 5:59pm David (in London): ↳ HyperDose @5:58 Yeah, I remember emailing in saying "Though I overseas, I have learned so much by listening to the station..."
	5:59pm wenzo: That guy. What a joke. I’ve learned so much from fmu! Nobody else has as many great interviews with musicians & music historians.
	🚽 5:59pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Ramona @5:57 Ramona, it provides a steady, predictable income stream. Easier to plan.
	5:59pm B R M: ↳ B R M @5:59 *Belock (argh autocorrect)
	5:59pm melinda: My sister went swag for life this year!
	5:59pm JB: Does that 2.9% fee go for debit card transactions also?
	6:00pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: I’d love to see a collection of WFMU tshirts & stickers over the decades.
	6:00pm luka: thank u Ken and Olivia
	🚽 6:00pm Handy Haversack: You all rock! Later on, friends!
	6:00pm Juli: When will I be billed for Swag For Life:: The 1st?
	6:00pm K8: A HUGE THANK YOU TO ALL OUR PLEDGERS TODAY! Handy and I have loved talking with you...
	🚽 6:00pm Will thee Sound Guy: Thank you Ken and Olivia!!!!
	6:00pm Juli: Thanks everyone!
	6:00pm Joe B: ↳ B R M @5:59 well feel free to get in touch with Ken, I'm sure he'd be open to a new approach
	🚽 6:00pm David (in London): Thanks all. See you tomorrow.
	6:00pm john_zilla: thank you everyone I love this info show
	6:00pm Brian in UK: Would you consider postal charges for those abroad?
	🚽 6:00pm HyperDose: Thanks Ken and Olivia!
	6:00pm listener 126464: Thanks Ken & Olivia.
	🚽 6:01pm Elena: Thank you!
	🚽 6:01pm Magenta: Thanks Ken and Olivia!
	6:01pm wenzo: Thanks Ken & Olivia, thanks all staff, volunteers, pledgers & listeners!
	6:01pm Officer Pupp: I love the State Of The Station broadcasts.
	6:01pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Joe B @6:00 I reached out to Ken about this, would be happy to help. Thanks, all!
	🚽 6:01pm dans507: Thanks to Ken and Olivia for this update.
	6:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Imagine looking for tax revenue from FMU. ~ Thx Staysh & Olivia ~
	🚽 6:02pm Webhamster Henry: Thanks for answering the phones Handy & K8
	6:07pm Carmichael: I’m lookin’ for loose change, Pound notes, Bad checks, Anything. Gimme some money …
	4:23pm PMD: I thought the female trifecta would stay! Don't look for a new manager!

Listener comments!
	5:02pm DanFA: Is Ken standing in front of the American flag, wearing his Patton costume, as he addresses the station nation?
	🚽 5:02pm HyperDose: State of the Station let's goooo! 🗣️🎙️📡
	5:02pm B R M: Everyone open up your audited 990s... #NonProfits4Life
	🚽 5:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: Be like Nancy and listen to WFMU! And also pledge.
	🚽 5:03pm PaulRobeson1923: Hi Hi
	5:03pm JetBoy of Astoria: Looking forward to state of the station. No yelling!
	🚽 5:04pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Ken and all!!!
	5:04pm melinda: hi Ken and all
	🚽 5:04pm DjLorraine: Hi. Reporting in 🌎
	5:04pm Robm: Hello fellow freedforms
	5:04pm Chris Hiatt: Ken, Olivia, and all youse!
	5:05pm Pauly from Clifton: Hey Ken, Olivia, gang!
	🚽 5:05pm Handy Haversack: OK, friends, we're still here in the phone room! Please keep the pledges coming. Call 800 989 9368. If TWO people call at once, one of you gets to speak to K8 instead of me. Flood those lines for safety!
	5:06pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Hi Ken and Olivia!!! When will Monty Hall reopen? Will it ever reopen?? I miss live music on the west shore of the Hudson River.
	5:07pm Carmichael: Hello Kenneth. Could you expound on the ongoing struggle with the gubmint re: non profit status?
	5:07pm Brian in UK: In real time that is 30%?
	5:07pm Magenta: Yeah Handy and K8!
	5:07pm yippie: the wfmu marathon helps me learn about money
	5:07pm McGroovey: I suppose Swag for Life, and online pledging in general, can make the phones feel slow.
	5:08pm roc: You got my pledge a week ago with that mailer. You shouldnt have let be bust so early ken
	5:08pm Daniel GListener #234723: Reporting for GListening Duty! Good Job new Swag4Lifers!!!! We Love U
	🚽 5:08pm Will thee Sound Guy: I heard me
	5:08pm DanFA: Question. What types of food have volunteers been cooking?
	5:08pm Cooh John: I guess I am a completist. What is the icon for donating to the state of the station?
	🚽 5:09pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Cooh John @5:08 I think you get Ken's anarchy sign!
	5:09pm B R M: ↳ McGroovey @5:07 Well, just look at the pre-marathon pledging, you'd want to be past 50% by now as you're 50% through the marathon timeframe, but have raised about 30% (?) in real time... also, the goal is higher this year, but yes.
	5:10pm Carmichael: Hopefully a FMU flag, Cooh.
	🚽 5:10pm DjLorraine: ↳ Cooh John @5:08 You get an A+
	🚽 5:10pm Handy Haversack: The Hearty White show at Monty Hall was wonderful.
	5:10pm Listener Robert: Ken, it sounds like what you're saying is that SFL and pre-marathon receipts are now accounted for realistically and should be comforting, yet it's hard to break out of the mindset of getting pledges in real time as encouragement.
	🚽 5:11pm David (in London): Am here to cheer on the state of the station.
	5:11pm Carmichael: And an A for citizenship.
	5:11pm McGroovey: All aboard for [...list of train stations I can't remember...] and Cuuuucamonga! ~[regular gag by Mel Blanc, when he was a regular on the Jack Benny show]
	5:11pm K8: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:10 I agree! Hearty White is a star!
	5:12pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Happy to hear about Monty Hall. The more gas & toll money I spend schlepping to Brooklyn & [ugh] Queens to see live music, that's less cash II have to throw at WFMU.
	🚽 5:13pm Handy Haversack: 800 989 9368 to make sure those copper wires don't achieve sentience and rise up to strangle us all!
	🚽 5:13pm PaulRobeson1923: The AOL chat rooms were better in 1998
	5:13pm ButtWeenies: I’d like to see you start a program where I can have my swag for life tshirts directly sent to a homeless shelter. There’s be legions of homeless wearing WFMU shirts and then you and Andy can have a show were you guess whether the T-shirt wearers on the street are homeless or listeners.
	🚽 5:13pm HyperDose: Sounds like a fun project!
	5:13pm roc: Make the app use less battery and work better
	🚽 5:13pm Will thee Sound Guy: Let's wire it up!!!!
	5:13pm K8: YOU can help make these improvements that Ken is talking about happen by calling me and Handy--800-989-9368! Come on now...
	🚽 5:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: Adopt-a-manager - www.flickr.com...
	5:14pm Chris Hiatt: Can you talk a little bit about the phone app? You guys happy with it?
	5:14pm DanFA: Ken will be kept alive through the miracle of science in all perpetuity.
	🚽 5:14pm Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ roc @5:13 I stream AAC on VLC... Pretty decent battery life
	🚽 5:15pm Magenta: Thank you, Ken!
	5:15pm Brian in UK: Succession planning is essential.
	5:15pm Joe B: can you talk about the unofficial FMU app and why that should be used?
	5:15pm melinda: Power-Troika!
	5:15pm DanFA: Stickin' it to the patriarchy.
	5:15pm herb.nyc: ↳ Magenta @5:15 Magenta, say the word. My HIT MAN is at the ready.
	5:15pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Joe B @5:15 iPhone WFMU app is fantastic. hifivicky is no fan of the Android offerings.
	5:16pm McGroovey: We hope Ken is there forever, but there are great people at the station to keep the ship running.
	5:16pm melinda: awkward question but I've thought it myself
	5:16pm ButtWeenies: Ken is going to be replaced by AI
	🚽 5:16pm David (in London): Props to champion sheet-folder Kelly Jones.
	5:16pm paddy in matawan: ken don't go
	5:16pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Carmichael @5:10 I have enough t-shirts and stickers. Gimme a damn flag to fly high.
	5:16pm Carmichael: As long as Andy doesn’t replace him
	5:16pm Robm: ↳ ButtWeenies @5:16 Oh god i hope not
	5:16pm Joe B: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @5:15 yes, I am referring to the android version(s)
	5:17pm Brian in UK: Ken/Olivia dare I ask, are there too many shows on the station?
	5:17pm B R M: I did downloads, and prefer them!
	5:17pm Mike D.: I was wondering if Gov Murphy’s plan to make more liquor licenses available is implemented, will WFMU look to get one for Monty Hall?
	5:17pm ButtWeenies: Andy can’t remember the number to the station let alone work any technology no matter how antiquated
	5:17pm Marie: I feel like this is extremely presumptuous but I think EFD would be a good station manager (noting that Ken is super special and can never really be replaced)
	🚽 5:17pm Magenta: ↳ Carmichael @5:16 @Carmichael: that's what I was afraid of.
	🚽 5:17pm PaulRobeson1923: 1998… Putt-Putt Goes to The Moon and the more riskay AOL Chat Rooms…
	🚽 5:17pm Handy Haversack: Give us a call! Otherwise, we might just have to call each other! 800 989 9368
	5:17pm Marie: EFD or Kelly Jones...
	5:18pm Listener Robert: ↳ B R M @5:09 That would depend on HOW they're accounting for SFL receipts. If it were me, I'd adjust the goal downward and credit the SFL with a multiplier for your experience on the average amount of churn in subscribership.
	5:18pm Deano de los Muertos: Hey Stache and Olivia
	5:18pm herb.nyc: I am happy to come to Monty to pick up my swag. Or, have neutral sites for us to go (like Amazon boxes. Boo, hiss, to Amazon)
	5:18pm Jeezy: My question for Ken is: What wa the worst pairing of DJs ever for the marathon and exactly how badly did it go?
	5:18pm Tommy in Neversink: I would pledge with out the prizes , I just take them cause they are offered. I'd pay extra for tee shirts
	5:18pm K8: Pledges help Ken to answer all these questions...let's fuel his brain. CALL ME: 800-989-9368. Pledge, pledge, pledge!
	🚽 5:19pm PaulRobeson1923: Wake & Bake, Forever
	5:19pm ButtWeenies: Dean it’s I ButtWeenies from Raritan
	5:19pm B R M: ↳ Listener Robert @5:18 yeah, I'm just going by the "Pledge Now" meter, which included the SFL pre-pledge total when the marathon started. 👍
	5:19pm Lee from Nutley: Hi Ken, what happened to the pledge map of years past? I like seeing where pledgers live around the US and the world. I don't see it on the FMU site.
	5:19pm Deano de los Muertos: Clay Pigeon is a god.
	🚽 5:20pm Erin in TO: I'll happily accept my sub-dermal implant
	🚽 5:20pm Handy Haversack: Saw your pledge, Erin! You rock!
	5:20pm JetBoy of Astoria: It’s true, the age demographic seems to skew older - cough cough - like myself
	5:20pm Ciggy: I enjoy State of the Station Give me Stats Give me the Future
	5:20pm Jim: You need to find a way of setting a fire under slacker swag for lifers (like me). I became a swag for lifer many years ago (Hurricane Sandy sounds about right) and only this year did I up my monthly contribution. Maybe some strategy to get it through our/my thick skull that the real value of a swag for life donation goes down every year... so UP IT every year!
	5:20pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ ButtWeenies @5:19 haha, a little treasure
	5:20pm ButtWeenies: Auction off an evening with Andy. You have to hang out with him you you don’t pledge.
	5:20pm herb.nyc: Subdural implants, haha. Wait. I just donated blood. That’s when you put the implant in. Tell the donor “oh, look over there. It’s Brad Pitt!”
	5:20pm Quinn02: Aren't there any famous people who appreciate WMFU and would donate a large chunk of money? like Kanye or somebody like that who can drop $100K like nothing.
	5:21pm K8: My very good' friend's kid, who is 8 years old, LOVES Wake!
	5:21pm JB: Yeah you should definitely keep reviewing the amount of swag you give. You're so very generous and can get away with offering less.
	5:21pm DanFA: Question. Do you think using TikTok will attract new listeners, despite Mark Hurst's objections?
	🚽 5:21pm Erin in TO: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:20 Thanks Handy, gotta do my part!
	5:21pm JB: #MiniGlisteners!!
	5:21pm Marie: I think more R&B and hip hop programming would attract more youngins
	🚽 5:21pm Webhamster Henry: Can the streams get equal standing on the website homepage?
	5:21pm RevErie: Any chance of the return of DJRay Boogie? Asking for a friend.
	5:21pm JetBoy of Astoria: He means it gives him a tentpole
	5:22pm DanFA: Ken is the Brian Cox of WFMU.
	🚽 5:22pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @5:19 The Highest Power is not a word and yer still looking out yer window for another traveling man (LiKE CLaY Pigeon!)
	5:22pm Robm: ↳ DanFA @5:21 I have mixed feelings about tictok
	5:22pm GrandWazooo99: No Old Codger premium !! very disappointing. need to hear those 78's
	5:22pm rx scabin: I look forward to hits.
	5:22pm JB: Word of mouth. Tell your friends!
	5:22pm Barbie: I used to listen to WFMU all day and night because I heard music I’ve never heard before and now it’s no longer true. Why the new direction? Swagger here love WFMU
	5:23pm Robm: ↳ JB @5:22 I do as much as i can
	5:23pm DanFA: ↳ Robm @5:22 I think some DJs are already on TikTok. The puppy bowl next weekend will be broadcast on Instagram. Video at least.
	🚽 5:23pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Ciggy @5:20 Give me, peace on Earth 🎶
	5:23pm ButtWeenies: Get a booth at the Trenton Punk Rock Flea Market to raise awareness for the station and sell records there!
	5:23pm Morphe': I've said before and not sure there is a solution But If ya save yer $$$ to soak Andy --- ya cannot show the love to all one's other Favs...
	🚽 5:24pm Handy Haversack: ↳ DanFA @5:23 Isn't that tonight? Bruce is here. I have been priming him with Rabbit Power Bites!
	5:24pm Ramona: Any more thought about dedicating time to set up Artist and Song listings for car radios? (Vs having to pull over if you want to look up the song/artist name.)
	5:24pm Chris Hiatt: The NJ liquor authority is the worst.
	5:24pm DanFA: Jesus Christ. $700K?
	5:24pm B R M: There is a new liquor license in NJ that started after the pandemic that is for non-profit theaters with more than 50 seats and less than 1000 and they do not cost the full price, only $2500. Give a look! We just applied for one for our movie theater!
	5:25pm JetBoy of Astoria: I bring a sixer
	5:25pm K8: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:24 Puppy Bowl is at 8pm tonight!
	5:25pm Switchblade Batman: How about some sort of marijuana license? Turn monty hall into a dispensary during the day?
	🚽 5:25pm Ken From Hyde Park: Will we expect DJs remote broadcasting during Infrastructure Week?
	5:25pm Stevel: Can a vendor bring a license to an event in addition to the 12? (don't need to answer that on air.)
	5:25pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ B R M @5:24 Oooh, that's great.
	🚽 5:25pm Handy Haversack: ↳ JetBoy of Astoria @5:25 I bring an eleven-pack.
	5:25pm DanFA: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:24 Yes. It is tonight. My bad.
	5:25pm McGroovey: ↳ Barbie @5:22 So you mean that you're only hearing music you've heard before? I have not had that experience.
	5:25pm roc: Do byob
	5:26pm Joe B: ↳ Stevel @5:25 no that would fall under the 12 per year
	🚽 5:26pm Magenta: ↳ Switchblade Batman @5:25 Jonesy suggested that on today's show. I actually think it could be a good idea if feasible!
	5:26pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ K8 @5:25 Oh cool, I thought I had missed it last night
	5:26pm R2: Question: I love marathon swag, but I hate the wait. If they cost so much to ship is there any way to just come pick them up to help save money? Perhaps even have a pick up day?
	5:26pm Eric: Can you accept "donations" for beer and wine at Monty Hall?
	5:26pm Switchblade Batman: ↳ Magenta @5:26 Great minds. I missed that earlier.
	5:26pm Joe B: ↳ roc @5:25 a money-losing proposition for most rock shows.we tried it many times
	5:26pm JetBoy of Astoria: I have a question - was selling the parking lot, in hindsight, a good idea or maybe necessary evil?
	5:26pm B R M: more on the revised non-profit theatrical liquor license: www.nj.com...
	5:26pm Listener Robert: ↳ B R M @5:19 My understanding (which may be wrong) is that pre-marathon one-time donations from the beginning of the calendar year get tacked onto the total immediately. However, I don't think it would be unfairly low to add only SFL monthly receipts to that point, and unfairly high to add a projection of the SFL amount for the year. What you need to anticipate is the percentage of SFL who would revoke their subscription over the remaining months, multiply that by the SFL receipts, and add that. I think that's realistic.
	5:27pm K8: If we all get pledging a little more, I'll go find one of those dudes who have 12 liquor licenses and...convince them to give us one. So call! 800-989-9368
	5:27pm Marc15: What is the status of the WFMU Record Fare post-COVID?
	5:27pm Switchblade Batman: ↳ Switchblade Batman @5:26 I'd come in from Brooklyn to buy my weed at WFMU. I know it's going to a good cause, probably good stuff.
	5:27pm McGroovey: ↳ roc @5:25 They do that. But the real money in having a venue (and the difference between making and losing money) comes from having a proper liquor license.
	5:27pm K8: ↳ Marc15 @5:27 There will be record fair again for the first time post-COVID on October 14 and 15 this year at the Knockdown Center in Queens!
	5:28pm wenzo: Just tuning in… is this the state of the station?
	🚽 5:28pm Handy Haversack: ↳ R2 @5:26 Having seen the packing process as a volunteer, I think this would be very difficult to manage, esp. given the size of the staff and volunteer availability. It would massively increase the admin for SWAG delivery. That said, I kind of love the wait. I think of it not as linear but as messianic time. SWAGVENT will come!
	5:28pm B R M: ↳ Listener Robert @5:26 Absolutely! agree, you want to cover attrition... plus, its a lot of "pledges" that may not be fulfilled etc. I hear you.
	5:28pm roc: As soon as you get north of the bronx the station takes a dump
	5:29pm Juli: I should reaally donate again
	5:29pm Listener Robert: ↳ Barbie @5:22 Are you sure it's a new direction, and not just that by now you've heard so much that not as much is new to you?
	🚽 5:29pm Ken From Hyde Park: If someone were to donate a van to WFMU, could said van be used to deliver swag? I picture a van covered with Woof Moo advertising to raise awareness.
	🚽 5:29pm HyperDose: Woo raking in the dough!
	5:30pm Ben G: this Spring, with COVID restrictions loosening, will volunteer numbers open up a little more for packing and shipping Swag?
	5:30pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Ken, if you need a lobbyist who can help with your liquor license issues, HMU. I'll charge my special rate because I dig you guys.
	5:30pm Brian in UK: Staff costs normally outweigh non-staff costs.
	5:30pm sufferwords: 400k x 8 employees- give 'em a raise!!!
	5:31pm Marc15: Thank you, K8
	5:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Webhamster Henry @5:21 I've been wishing for a Daily Schedule Page across all the Streams - as there is for each Stream for the whole week. That is - for each Day of the Week you'd have timeslots in Rows & every Stream in Columns. So many new Programs on every Stream - I'm finding it ever moe challenging to juggle them ! A good problem to have obviously ! - but...
	🚽 5:31pm Cp304: podcast addict is great, all 4 streams are available
	5:31pm JB: Offer a swag pick-up party! With booze, and donkeys!
	5:32pm Ciggy: The Woof Moo unofficial App is a killer app Thanks Steven
	5:32pm dday: Hi Ken & Olivia. I sent this to Ken a while back regarding liquor licences. No go? www.greenbaumlaw.com...
	5:32pm DanFA: I think I see the Mothership coming!
	🚽 5:32pm Handy Haversack: We had phone calls! Let's do it again! 800 989 9368
	5:32pm Ciggy: *Stephen
	5:32pm K8: All right, friends...we just had a 2 phones in use situation. It can happen again...let's pay for some of this good stuff Ken is talking about for the FUTURE of WFMU. Give me a ring...800-989-9368
	5:33pm Charles: I love the streams!
	5:33pm Lerch: Omg, thanks for the heads up on Woof Moo app!
	5:33pm Officer Pupp: I love the satellite channels. Rock n Soul Radio is amazing.
	5:33pm B R M: I love the variety of the streams, allows me to find new shows and music at all times.
	5:33pm melinda: I like the variety too
	🚽 5:33pm PaulRobeson1923: Any movement towards the - Don’t kill me Mommy! I want a chance to hear WFMU! The FUN 91.1fm! Billboard? approaching the Midtown Tunnel?
	5:33pm Robm: ↳ Charles @5:33 Charles i agree lot less trolling in the streams
	🚽 5:34pm Magenta: Lovely crowd in the phone room!
	5:34pm K8: Okay...Handy is on phone one. This is the time. CALL ME: 800-989-9368
	5:34pm Joe B: ↳ dday @5:32 like Ken said on the air, the Jersey City tavern lobby is intertwined with the JC police, and they are not supportive.
	5:34pm Marie: Yay, Jeremiah!
	5:34pm K8: ↳ Magenta @5:34 And thanks to you, Magenta, for being on the phones earlier today! The phone room is the place to be!
	5:35pm dday: ↳ Joe B @5:34 Got it Joe. Thanks. Power Politics in JC like everywhere else
	5:35pm Matt from OK: Is there any way around federal regulations preventing higher power FM stations from using Low Power repeaters? I remember there have been changes to FCC rules in the past because the right wing stations were buying up every available LP frequency.
	5:35pm K8: ↳ Joe B @5:34 Can these folx be finessed? I would think another music venue brings more people to the city, which makes more money for all the bars, right?
	5:35pm Joe B: ↳ dday @5:35 perhaps as these new regulations become more commonplace, things might change. but currently, they are dug in
	5:36pm Chris in Taiwan: No bank runs here - yet.
	5:36pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Joe B @5:34 There's gotta be a way around that. I mean, maybe I'll be wearing a pair of concrete shoes for saying this...
	5:36pm TMc: Is there any reason that the DJs on the Rock n Soul stream leave the reverb on when the music is playing (about 50% of the time)? So distracting that I have to turn it off.
	5:36pm ButtWeenies: Let’s do another billboard fundraiser that Manson billboard was amazing. Get one with Dahmer and you’ll be on the news instantly. Or an RIP bobbdylan one
	🚽 5:37pm Webhamster Henry: Human programs. No offense, Owl Sun snd Bunny
	🚽 5:38pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Matt from OK @5:35 Remember when Micheal Savage was air Beheading clips on Air? 770Am radio
	5:38pm wenzo: I’d contribute to the rip Dylan one… gotta have a hot air balloon crashing in it tho
	5:38pm stevej: love that answer!!!
	🚽 5:38pm PaulRobeson1923: Airing*
	5:38pm dday: Ken: If all goes well on Wed. I'll re-start my SWAG4LIFE. by the end of Marathon
	5:39pm K8: Okay, this has been great, friends...phones are ringing. Let's keep them ringing...I don't ever want to have to worry about WFMU not being in our lives, you know what I'm saying? Call me: 800-989-9368
	5:39pm ButtWeenies: You got a date Wednesday dday?
	5:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...if there were a way to see what's currently on every Stream @ once on the HomePage (whereas now you have to click on each Stream link to see each one) - that alone would be helpful ? No idea of course how challenging a computer programming challenge that would be... I imagine some spiffy graphic like a Multiband Radio Dial... Would that be a reasonable use of HomePage space ? After all - why have ever more Programs on more Streams if people don't even see them ? & other Functions like the Song Search ...even the Program Schedules as they are now - are a little obscure to find ? These are not major critiques of course - just ideas...
	🚽 5:39pm Handy Haversack: Just got a first-time pledger! You rock, Ben in Montclair! And Joe and Shannon, too!
	5:40pm wenzo: Notice how Ken studiously avoids addressing the Old Codger allegations (revelations?) re. The parking lot or parking lots
	5:40pm K8: Shout out to Barbie P.! Thank you for your pledge!
	5:40pm Listener Robert: ↳ ButtWeenies @5:36 For years I've had an idea -- even a design -- for one on US 206 northbound to tell people to switch from 91.1 to 90.1 "over the hill". I haven't had the initiative to do a kickstarter and I'd need WFMU's permission to use their intellectual property.
	5:40pm Joe B: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:39 the song search covers all of the alt streams
	5:40pm K8: And Susan P! Thank you for your pledge!
	5:40pm ButtWeenies: I’m mad about that lot I used to do my drugs there
	5:40pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ K8 @5:35 There is a path to argue these things in NY, but it's still challenging for a lot of reasons. Not impossible though. Of course things might be murkier in the Dirty Jerz.
	5:40pm JeremyB: Question: I once heard Ken joke on PBS that WFMU caters to dozens of listeners at any given moment... do you have any idea how many people worldwide listen to the station?
	🚽 5:41pm Handy Haversack: Ken: Question: Is there a way to keep the songs played by the AI DJs from being listed in the Basic Search function? Also: I love the Basic Search function and how it DOES NOT use Google!
	5:41pm herb.nyc: Sex and Broadcasting! I had a bit role in it, the phone room. I am happy to do interviews and tell ya more.
	5:41pm B R M: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:39 I would propose just adding the stream schedule homepages to the PROGRAMMING drop down menu on the homepage would help a lot
	5:41pm ButtWeenies: KB lethargy is the cause of and solution to all life’s problems
	5:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Joe B @5:40 Which is great ...but where is the Link to the Search from the HomePage to begin with ? It's not real obvious, is my point.
	5:42pm K8: Morale Pledges! Let's not let me and Handy get downtrodden...give us a call and pledge! 800-989-9368
	🚽 5:42pm Magenta: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:39 I'd like that too. I've been wanting to listen to the streams more but right now it's a smidge inconvenient to see what's on there and when.
	5:42pm B R M: ↳ B R M @5:41 They are under the LISTEN link tho
	5:43pm rx scabin: On top of.
	5:43pm Joe B: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:41 i agree it is impossible to find because it is called "advanced search" instead of playlist or song search. it's under the programming menu on the homepage
	🚽 5:43pm Elena: ↳ Lee from Nutley @5:19 Did I miss the pledge map answer? Is it completely gone? I'd like it back.
	🚽 5:43pm dans507: I looked up Sex and Broadcasting. It dates to 2014.
	5:43pm Juli: Swag for life BBs
	5:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ B R M @5:42 Yeah - why not give HomePage space to the actual Programming more ? In that sense.
	5:45pm Joe B: ↳ Chris Hiatt @5:40 that kind of effort is beyond our means. and not just financially. time and energy-wise as well. it is near impossible to prioritize something like that at this point
	5:45pm Gordon Slumbers: ↳ dans507 @5:43 S&B was shot over a few years, around 2010-2012, to my recollection.
	🚽 5:45pm David (in London): 20 percenter here. So love being able to listen to FMU here in the UK. Remember first hearing FMU on a trip to NYC in 1996, and fell in love instantly.
	5:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This is always informative, interesting & of course relevant.
	5:46pm Robm: ↳ David (in London) @5:45 Lot better then the beeb or global?
	5:47pm Listener Robert: I listen to Uncle Michael via his Twitch to save WFMU's Drummer stream the bandwidth.
	5:47pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: I’ve been listening on FM since 1987 or thereabouts.
	5:47pm ike-o: Peace
	5:47pm melinda: I met another FMU listener from Nantucket at the Yo La Tengo show here in Asheville last night. It was neat.
	5:47pm K8: ↳ Chris Hiatt @5:40 Yeah, I hear you. It's just like...sometimes business owners need to see that when we create something that makes money for everyone, that's a good thing. No need to hoard and be weird with each other.
	🚽 5:47pm Handy Haversack: The Puppy Bowl competitors are all wilded up and ready to rrrrrrrrrumble! We had to close the phone room door!
	5:48pm B R M: ↳ Chris Hiatt @5:40 I run a non-profit in an NJ town with multiple $1,000,000 licenses and we worked with the City Council to get a liquor license in progress for our 500 seat movie theater. It is a lift and you need a lawyer, but the license should only cost $2500 a year. That said, we have not been granted the liuecsne yet and have been working on it for a year. Monty Hall would 100% qualify, but you need the city ordinance and the license approved, etc. A process.
	5:48pm Peter G in Boonton: Regarding the cruise, does a kilobuck get a single or a pair of tickets?
	🚽 5:48pm Will thee Sound Guy: We love you FMU!!!
	5:48pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Joe B @5:45 Yeah it's a whole thing. You have to lawyer up and then dig a trench.
	🚽 5:48pm Handy Haversack: ↳ David (in London) @5:45 I am inside the building, David. And it told me it loves you too.
	5:48pm K8: BIG THANKS to David F. for his pledge! We only have thirteen more minutes on these phones, me and Handy (today). Give us a call...we'd love to hear from you: 800-989-9368
	5:49pm Joe B: ↳ B R M @5:48 right. city council, city ordinance ... we've been down that path already here
	🚽 5:49pm David (in London): ↳ Robm @5:46 There are some great shows here on BBC6Music and Resonance, but when you've got Bryce and Mark Hurst and Tony Coulter and Carol Crow and Mary Wing...and and and and, it's hard to go anywhere else. Plus, the community here is so strong.
	5:49pm McGroovey: I listen both by radio, and online. Sometimes when radio reception at home gets bad (usually that's in the daytime when it's sunny), I'll switch to the app. Or if I'm traveling, I'll listen on the app.
	🚽 5:49pm Handy Haversack: Brian in the UK -- just saw your pledge come in, friend! You're the best!
	5:49pm Tom and Julia: Another way to listen if you have a Roku TV surveillance device: I made Roku app. You can listen to all the streams and recent archives. Will be updated in next couple weeks Tom of Tom and Julia
	🚽 5:49pm PaulRobeson1923: I can’t find an image of it with WFMU search - the Bullbord idea “Don't kill me Mommy! I wanna listen to WFMU!” Do Billboards work? Cost VS return in New Pledging GListeners?
	🚽 5:50pm David (in London): ↳ Handy Haversack @5:48 Hurrah, thanks Handles, my love is not unrequited!
	5:50pm Robm: ↳ David (in London) @5:49 I agree and i have noticed that there are people from Russia and iran listening
	5:50pm K8: All right y'all...Handy is on Phone 1. Who wants me to pick up Phone 2? Come on...800-989-9368!
	5:50pm dday: ↳ ButtWeenies @5:39 yep
	🚽 5:51pm Will thee Sound Guy: Not me, S4L!
	5:51pm wenzo: There should be a wfmu bar(& pot club)… it could have different rooms with the different streams playing… and a staff curated juke box of course
	5:51pm Brian in UK: Olivia, I meant all pledges not just SfL.
	5:51pm B R M: ↳ Joe B @5:49 yes, But like I said, Governor Murphy created a new license that is ONLY for non-profit theaters, so it non-transferrable and is NOT an asset like the other licenses so it doesn't de-value existing license owners assets. All of the license owners in our town are fine with us getting a license... law only passed in 2020 and then COVID hit and no one applied, but you guys would qualify. 👍
	5:52pm K8: WE CAN DO THIS...60 pledges...bring it, people! MAKE MY PHONE RING: 800-989-9368
	5:52pm gorp: Any reason you avoid grants? I volunteer to write some applications anytime
	5:53pm paddy in matawan: please grandfather me into credit card payments I've never missed one
	5:53pm McGroovey: ↳ B R M @5:51 But Monty Hall isn't necessarily just a theater. Bars in Jersey City might see it as a night club, and therefore a competitor.
	🚽 5:53pm Handy Haversack: Just got to talk to Destroit on the phone! I love this place!
	5:53pm Joe B: ↳ B R M @5:51 yeah we know that. the one we tried to get was called a club license, like they have in a VFW. they even blocked that. nothing has changed here in JC regardless of a new state law.
	5:54pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ B R M @5:48 This is really interesting, would love to connect to discuss more. I sent you a request to connect through the WFMU website.
	5:54pm Destroit: Digging the updates Ken and Olivia. Nice talkin to ya Handy!
	5:54pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @5:53 spot on mcgroov
	5:54pm B R M: ↳ McGroovey @5:53 Monty Hall hosts "theatrical or musical performances" so it counts.
	5:55pm dday: ↳ B R M @5:51 That's the one I linked to above @5:32 BRM. I'm sure it's time consuming & $$$$ intensive from the lawyers side. If local pressure wasn't the issue it would probably be a path to go down
	5:55pm Switchblade Batman: Damn I actually use the Roku app. It's really handy when I'm working at home.
	5:56pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Joe B @5:53 Them blocking that sounds pretty shady.
	5:56pm listener 126464: DUI • ASSAULT • TAX EVASION • POLKA 1-800-989-9368
	5:56pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: @JoeB club license would work for WFMU. Holders of consumption licenses are not pleased with nearby club licenses.
	5:56pm McGroovey: ↳ B R M @5:54 But in NJ, the law isn't always The Law.
	5:56pm K8: Big thanks to Ally L for her pledge!
	5:57pm dday: ↳ McGroovey @5:56 That goes for the wHole of the U.S.
	5:57pm RevErie: The WFMU Roku App is still active
	🚽 5:57pm PaulRobeson1923: the rarest of cultural beings- Patrons. NYC is home to many Billionaires and Multi-Millionaires- I know some of you my friends LoVE Music!!!! And Freedom of Expression!! How do we connect with the handful of folks who would be able to make that kind (kind) of pledge?
	5:57pm paddy in matawan: how many Terabytes are the archives?!
	5:57pm Destroit: ↳ listener 126464 @5:56 Lol. Awesome.
	5:57pm goes211: Any more info on Apple TV app? I just searched and nothing?
	🚽 5:57pm Will thee Sound Guy: I remember that...
	5:57pm Charles: What's the bucket hat thing that was mentioned on the news page?
	5:57pm Ramona: Why does the station prefer monthly donations (swag for life), vs pay in full donation of the same amount?
	🚽 5:57pm Will thee Sound Guy: Super educational
	🚽 5:58pm HyperDose: I remember writing a letter for that. Damn the man!
	5:58pm Chris Hiatt: Every day is a school day at WFMU!
	5:58pm Ike: Oops, I missed most of the pirate-related talk while in transit.
	5:58pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ HyperDose @5:58 Same here
	5:58pm luka: musta tuned in for Diarrhea Lady
	5:58pm Officer Pupp: Oh yeah I remember that - I emailed about the educational value I had found in the station.
	5:59pm B R M: ↳ dday @5:55 yeah I get it, I'm not here to argue with Joe Block, just sayin, I am in process on this for our theater and have been doing a ton of work on it, but if WFMU thinks it is out of reach, who am I to argue? @McGroovey - the law is the law, but you need the city to grant the license ... and yes it can be an obstacle.
	5:59pm K8: We're down to TWO MINUTES...let's give me and Handy each one more pledge call! Pretty please!!! 800-989-9368
	🚽 5:59pm David (in London): ↳ HyperDose @5:58 Yeah, I remember emailing in saying "Though I overseas, I have learned so much by listening to the station..."
	5:59pm wenzo: That guy. What a joke. I’ve learned so much from fmu! Nobody else has as many great interviews with musicians & music historians.
	🚽 5:59pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Ramona @5:57 Ramona, it provides a steady, predictable income stream. Easier to plan.
	5:59pm B R M: ↳ B R M @5:59 *Belock (argh autocorrect)
	5:59pm melinda: My sister went swag for life this year!
	5:59pm JB: Does that 2.9% fee go for debit card transactions also?
	6:00pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: I’d love to see a collection of WFMU tshirts & stickers over the decades.
	6:00pm luka: thank u Ken and Olivia
	🚽 6:00pm Handy Haversack: You all rock! Later on, friends!
	6:00pm Juli: When will I be billed for Swag For Life:: The 1st?
	6:00pm K8: A HUGE THANK YOU TO ALL OUR PLEDGERS TODAY! Handy and I have loved talking with you...
	🚽 6:00pm Will thee Sound Guy: Thank you Ken and Olivia!!!!
	6:00pm Juli: Thanks everyone!
	6:00pm Joe B: ↳ B R M @5:59 well feel free to get in touch with Ken, I'm sure he'd be open to a new approach
	🚽 6:00pm David (in London): Thanks all. See you tomorrow.
	6:00pm john_zilla: thank you everyone I love this info show
	6:00pm Brian in UK: Would you consider postal charges for those abroad?
	🚽 6:00pm HyperDose: Thanks Ken and Olivia!
	6:00pm listener 126464: Thanks Ken & Olivia.
	🚽 6:01pm Elena: Thank you!
	🚽 6:01pm Magenta: Thanks Ken and Olivia!
	6:01pm wenzo: Thanks Ken & Olivia, thanks all staff, volunteers, pledgers & listeners!
	6:01pm Officer Pupp: I love the State Of The Station broadcasts.
	6:01pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Joe B @6:00 I reached out to Ken about this, would be happy to help. Thanks, all!
	🚽 6:01pm dans507: Thanks to Ken and Olivia for this update.
	6:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Imagine looking for tax revenue from FMU. ~ Thx Staysh & Olivia ~
	🚽 6:02pm Webhamster Henry: Thanks for answering the phones Handy & K8
	6:07pm Carmichael: I’m lookin’ for loose change, Pound notes, Bad checks, Anything. Gimme some money …
	4:23pm PMD: I thought the female trifecta would stay! Don't look for a new manager!
