	♥ 9:08am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Fred and Alan @9:04 Hi, Fred and Alan. The main page shows that Pseu is off today and DJ Meghan is filling in. (In case you didn't know that already.)
	♥ 9:09am Mxter Baba: ↳ Song: "la foret bleue" by "Emmanuelle Parrenin" and this is plenty lovely!
	9:09am Fred and Alan: Thanks Ken from Hyde Park dud you hear all our shows with Pseu
	♥ 9:10am TDK60: ↳ Mxter Baba @9:07 Howdy Mxter B! Why would there even be book bans in a so-called democracy? (You don't have to answer, hee.) And yes, E. P. is swell.
	♥ 9:12am Mxter Baba: ↳ TDK60 @9:10 greetings, TDK60kins! any answer I have would require plenty freedom of speech, lemme tell ya!

	♥ 9:25am Krull Sagan: Ohhhh I remember this soundtrack so well, what a memory jewel, thanks Trouble!
	♥ 9:25am Zinn The Mood: Hey Trouble and the Makers of it. The “I Read Banned Books” sticker on our car is fading. But have added “Capitalism is Cannibalism” next to the FMU one! Part of the “All Our Grievances Are Connected” credo via Occupy Wall St. Gotta go hang the children’s clothes on the drying racks…
	♥ 9:28am TDK60: ↳ Robm @9:13 Robm. I figure some being "offended" is down the list from the more glaring truth: Racists, reactionaries, fascists are trying to erase history, and deny the existence of LGBT+ people, is what.
	♥ 9:28am Karl Ward: Broadcast forever
	♥ 9:30am Krull Sagan: Little article in most recent Mojo magazine on Dorothy Moskowitz from the band The United States of America, like THEEEE influence on Braodcast from what I understand? She’s a retired school music teacher now in Cali
	9:32am Robm: ↳ TDK60 @9:28 Put it better then I could have said thanks
	9:32am Connie: this version is so good, thanks for sharing
	♥ 9:34am Mxter Baba: ↳ HyperDose @9:13 hey there, HyperDosekins! Good morning, Robm, we meet again! @Zinn—sounds like a collection that would catch my eye! @TDK60: word. this is a targeted political strategy! this is no joke.
	♥ 9:35am Vivian: Was just thinking about Broadcast yesterday...
	♥ 9:35am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Fred and Alan @9:09 Yes, I was tuned in for part of the show. Lots of fun.
	♥ 9:35am Mxter Baba: ↳ TDK60 @9:28 PS: good luck erasing history! I can't even erase embarrassing posts from the internet!
	9:35am Ben from Newark: I need to get the Maisa Vale Sessions. I passed over this b/c I was skeptical it could match the studio recordings, but this is great!
	♥ 9:36am Acid Cazh: I can't believe I get to listen to this station every day
	♥ 9:37am Mxter Baba: HUZZAH for the success of the fundraiser!
	♥ 9:39am Mxter Baba: ↳ Trouble @4:19 ugh! as if schools aren't already stretched to their limits!
	♥ 9:40am Acid Cazh: Folderol, excellent word there Trouble. Looking out for that link.
	♥ 9:40am James in ATL: Thanks for the heads up, Trouble!
	9:41am N'Lo: Thanks for using your platform! Make Good Trouble!
	9:41am lieutenant lambrusco: Tell em Trouble 👍
	♥ 9:42am tim from washington: Hi Trouble and folks!
	♥ 9:43am Webhamster Henry: 𝕸𝔞𝔨𝔢 𝕬𝔪𝔢𝔯𝔦𝔠𝔞 𝕲𝔢𝔯𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔶 𝕬𝔤𝔞𝔦𝔫
	♥ 9:44am D Rok: Hear Hear Trouble! I also think all this hysteria about "woke-ism" in public schools is part of a strategy aimed at defunding public education, with the end goal of privatizing everything.
	♥ 9:44am tim from washington: ↳ Ben from Newark @9:35 Ben - Never pass on Peel Sessions of bands you like:). I've never been let down by them. They all have the live energy and vibe which gives the songs a slightly different feel.
	♥ 9:47am Trouble: call your rep today to say no to censorship in school libraries! oneclickpolitics.global.ssl.fastly.net...
	9:48am Robm: ↳ tim from washington @9:44 Tim where can i find the peel sessions?
	♥ 9:49am tim from washington: ↳ Robm @9:48 Of Broadcast or in general?
	♥ 9:49am D Rok: ↳ D Rok @9:44 It's a two-part strategy from what I can tell. Part 1: Erode confidence in public education. Part 2: Use voucher programs and "School Choice" to divert funding from public schools into private schools. This further weakens public schools, which further erodes confidence, and a death-spiral ensures.
	9:49am Robm: ↳ tim from washington @9:49 I guess both
	♥ 9:49am D Rok: ↳ D Rok @9:49 *ensues
	♥ 9:50am Phillippe: good morning
	♥ 9:51am sydnius: ↳ Phillippe @9:50 Bon jour! Ça va?
	9:51am Saltzshaker: This Stella kola is lovely
	♥ 9:52am Mxter Baba: ↳ Trouble @9:47 Thanks! I called!
	♥ 9:53am Phillippe: ↳ sydnius @9:51 très bien! et toi?
	♥ 9:53am sydnius: Comme ci comme ca
	♥ 9:54am TDK60: ↳ Krull Sagan @9:30 Krull: that influence of USA on Broadcast makes sonic sense. I still have my scratchy USA LP. I dig Broadcast. They also seem a bit adjacent to Stereolab too.
	♥ 9:54am Phillippe: ↳ sydnius @9:53 je t'entends
	♥ 9:55am tim from washington: Got it! Here's the album that Trouble just pulled from: broadcast.bandcamp.com... Here's a good start for diving into what's available online: www.openculture.com... Also, most of the 'significant' bands in the last part of the 20th century recorded Peel Sessions - Can, Joy Division, Buzzcocks, Siouxsie, Gang of Four, PJ Harvey et al and have released them at some point.
	♥ 9:56am Dano59: ↳ D Rok @9:49 that's about the size of it. eroding faith in all institutions including education and the media (& govt, medicine, science...) are part of the basic infrastructure for despots. the fact that people are being manipulated into supporting it ...
	♥ 9:56am tim from washington: ↳ TDK60 @9:54 Total USA vibe. I agree.
	♥ 9:56am Zinn The Mood: Speaking of birds and their calls… The opening chapter of Dan Saladino’s excellent “Eating To Extinction: The world's rarest foods and why we need to save them” is a marvelous, stunning story of the symbiotic relationship developed over thousands of years, between a Tanzanian tribe called the Hazda and the local honey guide bird, to gather the honey nectar grown in the high branches of baobab trees. The tribesmen all know the different kinds of calls and speak expertly with the birds, who guide them to the blossomed trees. They then climb the trees to smoke out the bees, releasing the honeycombs to the ground where the rest pack to bring back to the tribe. The birds are rewarded with the scattered bits they couldn’t have gotten without being lethally stung. Fascinating partnership of coexistence and thriving together. The Hazda are one of the oldest surviving hunter gatherer tribes in the world. The honey is an integral part of their exceptionally well nourished diet. Their organization of society also ensures a level of autonomy and freedom unimaginable in the modern world. No one person has any authority over another, made possible by the bounty of food available to all at any time. Sadly, with the encroachment of factory farms and livestock pastures all around them they’ve recently been introduced to the Western diet of processed food. Which seriously threatens that ancestral bond between bird and man, and of course the pure diet and anarchist culture of cohabitation.
	9:57am Robm: ↳ tim from washington @9:55 If your talking to me thanks, knew the listmind would come through
	♥ 9:57am sydnius: ↳ Phillippe @9:54 Malheuresment je réside aux Etas Unis, ce n'est bas bons ici. I have’t checed the news, I’m sure everything’s fine in France.
	9:57am headcleaner: ↳ Song: "warm in the dark" by "barbie bertisch" I think I'm awake now
	♥ 9:58am tim from washington: Yup! That post was for you, Robm
	♥ 9:58am Dano59: If there's a book about lesbian seagulls I'm sure it will be verboten
	9:59am Robm: ↳ Robm @9:57 And tim bookmarked the peel sessions for future listening, thanks so much
	♥ 10:02am Dano59: ↳ Robm @9:59 I have a few; not enough. Colorblind James Experience, Billy Bragg, and many officially unreleased ones e.g. Belle and Sebastian, Cat Power, Laura Cantrell, Nick Drake ...
	♥ 10:03am tim from washington: ↳ Robm @9:59 I think my favorite Peel Sessions is the Gang of Four sessions. If you're a Fall fan, a 6 cd boxset of all their Peel Sessions came out about 20 years ago. It's worth seeking out! I'm pretty sure I first heard about WFMU from a (literal) tape that was passed on to me. 3 or 4 Peel Sessions were on one side and the other side had a live set recorded on Pat Duncan's WFMU show. This was 1993 I think.
	♥ 10:03am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Morning all! Loving this version of "More than a Woman." I need the energy this AM!
	10:03am hendrix wolfbat: THANK YOU TROUBLE for the links and the information about HR5..signed and shared...especially great is the one from one click as it finds your rep and their phone #! invaluable!
	♥ 10:04am Mike Sin: ↳ Song: "more than a woman" by "tavares" I think I go with this version over the Bee Gees... even though its a Bee Gees original.
	♥ 10:04am Trouble: happy to share!! @hendrix
	10:04am Robm: ↳ tim from washington @10:03 Damn color me impressed Hey three moons
	♥ 10:04am sydnius: I hear Dave /gone/ loves this show. Training myself to say it correctly after 30 years, just like /haa san/ minhaj
	♥ 10:04am tim from washington: ↳ Mike Sin @10:04 Agreed!
	10:06am AYAYRON: Woo! Reppin NB! I live in Dartmouth MA! #Tavares
	♥ 10:06am Webhamster Henry: Trouble, Rhode Island is Famous for You! www.youtube.com...
	♥ 10:06am Acid Cazh: My wife's from Providence, and lived there when we first met. I love Providence. We'd move there in a heartbeat if there was work for the two of us.
	10:06am N'Lo: Trouble! I had no idea they were Cape Verdean! Also that we perhaps crossed over? IL ‘92!
	♥ 10:07am listener james from westwood: Providence was thoroughly charming when I visited in 2019 for a conference.
	10:07am Bluesky: I grew up on Fox Point!
	10:07am N'Lo: Your letter had me in stitches!
	10:08am Bluesky: IN Fox Point :-P
	♥ 10:08am iiibeat: The general function of the internet can and should: Destroy Occultism by readily propagating esoteric forms of information pertinent to art, science and government. The general function of the internet can and should: Quickly erode the hierarchical structure of the Republic by making available directly to civilians and constituents voting on every single issue that arises at any and all levels of government.
	10:09am Clefftone: New Beige spawn here. The Tavares were a local institution. A few of them did sound for every concert in the area. I think a few of their kids went on to play in the Maurice Star orbit (New Kids, New Edition, all that junk).
	♥ 10:10am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ Mxter Baba @9:07 Catching up on comments and can't possibly agree more! Found out that a very close friend of mine -- and a birthday twin -- is thinking of transitioning after lifelong crossdressing/closet femme behaviors. His kids are in JHS and HS and his wife is supportive, but as of right now, his kids can't honestly talk about their family situation or have access to any third party supportive services. And the status of his job protection is questionable. He's still presenting as male at work/using him/he and similar, but he's growing his hair out and starting electrolysis. It's bullshit and it feels like even more bullshit when someone you've known for 25+ years is subject to the bullshit. He's had his current job for over 15 years and of all things THAT'S what he's most worried about even though it's a desk job that is 90% remote at this point. Fuck censorship and fuck the anti-trans crowd. PS did you see the awesome footage of the Pee Boys getting their asses kicked in NYC when they came to protest Drag Story Hour? It was awesome.
	♥ 10:10am Phillippe: ↳ sydnius @9:57 Alas, French Phillippe is only an alter ego I created at least 20 years ago as a prank on some fantasy football friends. I worked on a project a few years ago that had a social media policy that restricted our use of our own names on certain sites, so I adopted Phillippe on a broader scale and it kind of stuck. I'm actually an eastern bloc mutt living in Annapolis, MD
	♥ 10:11am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ Zinn The Mood @9:56 That's amazing. I need to read it.
	10:12am Robm: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @10:10 When i heard that i loved it, hope your friend can transition without getting fired
	♥ 10:12am Zinn The Mood: More Than A Woman will always have me back to being a libidinous adolescent, forced into the first of four years in Catholic School, miserable about the restrictive environment but not unhappy about seeing all day bare legs and the revelatory white shirts required of the girls. Weird irony there i hadn’t thought of before. Like so much of religion and its institutions a lot doesn’t line up…
	♥ 10:15am iiibeat: I wouldn't mind reading that collage email . . Send it to iiibeat@yahoo.com, PLEASE!! lol
	♥ 10:15am sydnius: ↳ Phillippe @10:10 still, vive la Révolution!
	♥ 10:17am tim from washington: ↳ Song: "crush on ice" by "kraus" Is this Kraus from Benson? ;) This is pretty great!
	♥ 10:19am sydnius: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:12 give us your cheeldren
	♥ 10:21am MarginWalker in Baltimore: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:12 I'll start worrying about myself the day religion starts making sense to me.
	♥ 10:23am Jason from Houston: Hey there, good people.
	♥ 10:24am Phillippe: ↳ sydnius @10:15 exactly! Just heard the Yeah Yeah Yeah's "Off w/ Their Heads" last night, in fact. The spirit lives!
	♥ 10:25am HyperDose: Howdy Jason 🤠
	♥ 10:27am tim from washington: Hey Jason!
	♥ 10:29am sydnius: ↳ Song: "wood beez( pray like aretha farnklin)" by "scritt... Remember to use your Emulator ][ for good
	♥ 10:39am MarginWalker in Baltimore: Such a quiet chat compared to WAB🤭
	♥ 10:39am Kotzwinkled: Robert Palmer Hive rise up! There are dozens of us!
	♥ 10:40am StuHorvath: Hell yea Robert Palmer
	10:40am mr_soju: ↳ MarginWalker in Baltimore @10:39 The tunes are so good. I just want to bliss out and listen.
	♥ 10:41am hilaryprudy: Ah...my favorite Robert Palmer song...
	♥ 10:41am Brian in UK: Hello Trouble. Congratulations on making the Marathon successful. The great Robert Greenidge on steel pans.
	♥ 10:42am MarginWalker in Baltimore: ↳ hilaryprudy @10:41 If it's not, this could be a Marvin Gay cover. That's what it sounds like to me
	♥ 10:42am MarginWalker in Baltimore: ↳ mr_soju @10:40 That's cool; Def not a complaint
	10:43am Listener Schned: Thanks for the censorship link, Troubs! In return, you may want a look at this interview w/your JC Mayor Fulop: https://therealdeal.com/magazine/national-march-2023/new-york-new-york/
	♥ 10:46am Trouble: thanks listener schned: that will have to wait till after the show because i will be filled with four letter words and fury.
	♥ 10:46am Phillippe: ↳ Song: "underwater love" by "smoke city" love this
	♥ 10:48am Mxter Baba: ↳ Phillippe @10:46 digging it, too. hey there, Phillippe!
	♥ 10:48am tim from washington: ↳ Listener Schned @10:43 Is Mayor Fulop Jared and Ivanka's pal?
	♥ 10:49am northguineahills: ↳ Mxter Baba @10:48 i'm busy w/ school, so you and Phillipe dig-in for me, thanks!
	♥ 10:49am MarginWalker in Baltimore: ↳ tim from washington @10:48 Lizards have friends?
	10:53am the serpent: You’re killing it today Trouble!
	♥ 10:54am tim from washington: ↳ MarginWalker in Baltimore @10:49 Ha! Darwin didn't live long enough to see that evolutionary trend.
	10:57am Christy D: Grace at Hammerstein Ballroom in May!
	♥ 10:58am northguineahills: ↳ Christy D @10:57 wuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhh‽ ‽ ‽ ‽ ‽ ‽
	♥ 11:02am Webhamster Henry: Just want to point out that today is a palindrome day , 3/23/23.
	♥ 11:03am MarginWalker in Baltimore: ↳ Webhamster Henry @11:02 I love me some palindromes!
	11:03am David Baker: I'm in St Albans, in the UK, just north of London - listening to Trouble ( Clay) absolutely make my day - you guys are FABULOUS... Keep on keeping on. x
	♥ 11:03am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Webhamster Henry @11:02 Also, this Saturday is Earth Day. www.earthday.org... Enjoy it before it's gone! 🌎
	♥ 11:07am Karl Ward: The Dinner at Andy's Society
	♥ 11:07am Chris Hiatt: Hello All, late to the party today!
	♥ 11:07am MarginWalker in Baltimore: Birdy McBirdface Society?
	♥ 11:07am paddy in matawan: "We Like Birb"
	11:08am egould: “Birds R Lit FR”
	♥ 11:08am Kotzwinkled: Every Kind of Cheepers Society
	♥ 11:08am mndave: ↳ Karl Ward @11:07 Came here to crack the joke, watched it get cracked, back to listening
	11:08am the serpent: The Not-ubon society?
	♥ 11:09am paddy in matawan: ↳ mndave @11:08 Cracked! Brilliant!
	♥ 11:09am northguineahills: ↳ Webhamster Henry @11:02 only if you use the n american dating system pre-Y2K
	♥ 11:09am Zinn The Mood: ↳ tim from washington @10:48 Wouldn’t be in the least surprised. Once in the club of power, whether political or money, all the things that disturb we Plebes in the 99% just make them chuckle. They’re truly birds of feather flocking together. The hyper-partisan divide that is turbo-charged by the mainstream media keeps us easily divided and conquered - while they, Dems and Repubs, laugh all the way to the bank at it all. Time for some epiphanies, folks. It’s a Big Club, and you and I aren’t in it. Carlin’s “American Dream” bit summed it up as succinctly as you’ll ever hear.
	♥ 11:11am northguineahills: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:03 but, since today marks my 6th Lucas prime completion orbiting the day star, it works for me!
	♥ 11:13am paul b: If the Audubon Society would just re-name themselves the Mayuko Fujino Society she could make collages for all the birds
	♥ 11:22am Little Danny: good morning, love this
	♥ 11:23am Zinn The Mood: Beautiful set here, Trouble. Making the baked tofu triangles the kids love, in a marinade of olive oil, Braggs amino acids, crushed rosemary, sumac and white pepper. Good vibe in the kitchen on this increasingly grey day. My favorite kind.
	♥ 11:25am Webhamster Henry: ↳ paul b @11:13 Don't forget Mayuko's radio show "Beakuency" wavefarm.org...
	♥ 11:25am Jason from Houston: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:23 Nice. Delicious combo.
	♥ 11:26am Acid Cazh: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:09 The actual devide is between employers (who exploit the surplus labor of workers), and the employed (those of us whose labor is exploited). I know it sounds Marxist, but David Ricardo identified this long before Marx was born. And Proudhon wrote about it a ton before Marx's theories really got off the ground. Either way, it holds true today. That's the real class divide.
	♥ 11:26am Trouble: o m g
	11:26am PJ: The Chipmunks do Ivy
	♥ 11:27am Acid Cazh: I was loving that, why'd you stop it Trouble?
	♥ 11:27am Webhamster Henry: Ken ran a record at the wrong speed yesterday ... A FLAC FILE WOULD NEVER DO THAT.
	11:27am Mike W.: Yayyy Try to pull THAT off, AI dj
	11:28am Robm: ↳ MarginWalker in Baltimore @10:39 You should have seen the chat on the marathon finale, could not keep up with it and did not try
	♥ 11:28am Hubig Pie: Jah, I was digging that . Sounds good at this speed too.
	♥ 11:28am Yes: ↳ Mike W. @11:27 :)
	♥ 11:29am MarginWalker in Baltimore: ↳ Robm @11:28 Yeah, I totally get that. It was out of control
	♥ 11:29am Ironside: ivy works both at normal speed AND sped up
	11:31am Robm: ↳ MarginWalker in Baltimore @11:29 It got to the point where if i wanted to reply to someone, 10 posts would go by in the blink of an eye and after i while i said screw it
	♥ 11:37am Trouble: about today's artwork www.britishmuseum.org...
	♥ 11:37am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:26 Absolutely. Would love to see an organized worker uprising that paralyzed the whole system (sorry folks, the treats must be halted for a time!). Our labor and how we choose to spend our money is the only real power we can exert. It’s weird, this thinking that was exclusively the domain of Left wing thought might at this moment be gaining some traction in RW circles too. Need to read up on David Ricardo. If anybody’s interested one of the best takes on all of this apocalyptic talk and the alienation driving it that we feel you have to check out Matt Christman’s latest: podcasts.apple.com...
	♥ 11:38am northguineahills: ↳ Robm @11:31 slow down, what were you saying?, I couldn't keep up... 😜
	♥ 11:39am MarginWalker in Baltimore: On that topic, if anyone had the time and interest to do so, please check out my wife's art page on IG: instagram.com... Thanks!
	11:40am Robm: ↳ northguineahills @11:38 No shit NGH:)
	♥ 11:40am northguineahills: ↳ MarginWalker in Baltimore @11:39 done! thanks!
	♥ 11:40am Acid Cazh: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:37 Not super familiar with David Ricardo, he's a classical economist in the vein of Adam Smith. He just identified the surplus labor, I don't know if he identified it as a problem (like Proudhon, Marx, Kropotkin, and others) I've got my IWW Red Card in my wallet, ready for when the General Strike comes. ✊
	♥ 11:41am MarginWalker in Baltimore: ↳ northguineahills @11:40 Much appreciated!
	♥ 11:42am Bill K: Beautiful artwork!
	♥ 11:48am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Jason from Houston @11:25 Have been making it for about 20 years now. Pretty much a take on a recipe from Angelika’s, one of the earlier vegan restaurants in NYC, before they like so many were crushed by greedy price-gouging realty rapists. The whole LES seems to have been transformed from artist enclave refuge housing some of the greats across the board for decades and decades, to just another upscale franchise-drenched and boutique-shopping playground for the wealthy, trust fund kiddies and Big Tech and NYU sprawl. Much more so than I remember it playing in bands down there 30 years ago. Some day, I hope, we’ll find ourselves looking in one another’s direction and revolt in solidarity , with numbers significant enough to overwhelm this predatory capitalist system that drives all this angst and alienation, and we’ll finally have a more equitable socialist society in which all are dignified.
	♥ 11:51am Trouble: thanks for tuning in this morning! see you next week.
	♥ 11:52am Ironside: Amazing set Trouble! Thank you!!!
	♥ 11:53am Little Danny: beautiful sounds here
	♥ 11:53am TDK60: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:48 Zinn, I know several people, counterculture folks, artists, radicals still holding out in the East Village/Lower East Side. And the working class in general too- Puerto Rican, Black, Ukrainian, Chinese, etc.
	♥ 11:54am love2laf: Thank you for the beautiful sounds Trouble, always great to hear your show, even when I can't join in and engage on the comments board. Thank you for starting my day off right.
	11:54am Gaston Musella: Awesome copsmos cut
	♥ 11:55am Jason from Houston: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:48 Here for it, boss. I look at little everyday actions as a help but that's not going to smash the banks and capitalism the way I want.
	♥ 11:55am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:03 Upon closer inspection, Earth Day is next month. 8:30 PM this Saturday is Earth Hour, when one can turn off some electricity for an hour. www.earthhour.org 🕣 Thanks for the beauty this morning, Trouble.
	11:55am Pax: Nice show Troubly Wubbly, have a good day.
	♥ 11:56am Phillippe: Thank you Trouble!
	♥ 11:56am TDK60: Thanks, DJ Trouble! My ears (what's left of 'em) made my brain happy.
	♥ 11:56am Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "tagada, night rises" by "mary lattimore & growing" This is lovely!
	♥ 11:56am Jason from Houston: Many thanks, Trouble. This Lattimore & Growing is a delight. Phew...
	♥ 11:56am Rich in Washington: Thanks for a wonderful show this morning, Trouble!
	♥ 11:58am Zinn The Mood: ↳ TDK60 @11:53 Two musician friends left fairly recently. One, to survive the ever-increasing obscene rent, had to convert his already tiny railroad apt into an Airbnb. In which he somehow managed to stuff a bed into a tiny office space, literally taking up 95% of the floor space. Without this arrangement he would have to had to leave years ago. There are some, sure, who still somehow manage to exist there. But many I would guess are grandfathered in on some kind of rent controlled situation.

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Part of the “All Our Grievances Are Connected” credo via Occupy Wall St. Gotta go hang the children’s clothes on the drying racks…
	♥ 9:28am TDK60: ↳ Robm @9:13 Robm. I figure some being "offended" is down the list from the more glaring truth: Racists, reactionaries, fascists are trying to erase history, and deny the existence of LGBT+ people, is what.
	♥ 9:28am Karl Ward: Broadcast forever
	♥ 9:30am Krull Sagan: Little article in most recent Mojo magazine on Dorothy Moskowitz from the band The United States of America, like THEEEE influence on Braodcast from what I understand? She’s a retired school music teacher now in Cali
	9:32am Robm: ↳ TDK60 @9:28 Put it better then I could have said thanks
	9:32am Connie: this version is so good, thanks for sharing
	♥ 9:34am Mxter Baba: ↳ HyperDose @9:13 hey there, HyperDosekins! Good morning, Robm, we meet again! @Zinn—sounds like a collection that would catch my eye! @TDK60: word. this is a targeted political strategy! this is no joke.
	♥ 9:35am Vivian: Was just thinking about Broadcast yesterday...
	♥ 9:35am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Fred and Alan @9:09 Yes, I was tuned in for part of the show. Lots of fun.
	♥ 9:35am Mxter Baba: ↳ TDK60 @9:28 PS: good luck erasing history! I can't even erase embarrassing posts from the internet!
	9:35am Ben from Newark: I need to get the Maisa Vale Sessions. I passed over this b/c I was skeptical it could match the studio recordings, but this is great!
	♥ 9:36am Acid Cazh: I can't believe I get to listen to this station every day
	♥ 9:37am Mxter Baba: HUZZAH for the success of the fundraiser!

	♥ 9:40am James in ATL: Thanks for the heads up, Trouble!
	9:41am N'Lo: Thanks for using your platform! Make Good Trouble!
	9:41am lieutenant lambrusco: Tell em Trouble 👍
	♥ 9:42am tim from washington: Hi Trouble and folks!
	♥ 9:43am Webhamster Henry: 𝕸𝔞𝔨𝔢 𝕬𝔪𝔢𝔯𝔦𝔠𝔞 𝕲𝔢𝔯𝔪𝔞𝔫𝔶 𝕬𝔤𝔞𝔦𝔫
	♥ 9:44am D Rok: Hear Hear Trouble! I also think all this hysteria about "woke-ism" in public schools is part of a strategy aimed at defunding public education, with the end goal of privatizing everything.
	♥ 9:44am tim from washington: ↳ Ben from Newark @9:35 Ben - Never pass on Peel Sessions of bands you like:). I've never been let down by them. They all have the live energy and vibe which gives the songs a slightly different feel.
	♥ 9:47am Trouble: call your rep today to say no to censorship in school libraries! oneclickpolitics.global.ssl.fastly.net...
	9:48am Robm: ↳ tim from washington @9:44 Tim where can i find the peel sessions?
	♥ 9:49am tim from washington: ↳ Robm @9:48 Of Broadcast or in general?
	♥ 9:49am D Rok: ↳ D Rok @9:44 It's a two-part strategy from what I can tell. Part 1: Erode confidence in public education. Part 2: Use voucher programs and "School Choice" to divert funding from public schools into private schools. This further weakens public schools, which further erodes confidence, and a death-spiral ensures.
	9:49am Robm: ↳ tim from washington @9:49 I guess both
	♥ 9:49am D Rok: ↳ D Rok @9:49 *ensues
	♥ 9:50am Phillippe: good morning
	♥ 9:51am sydnius: ↳ Phillippe @9:50 Bon jour! Ça va?
	9:51am Saltzshaker: This Stella kola is lovely
	♥ 9:52am Mxter Baba: ↳ Trouble @9:47 Thanks! I called!
	♥ 9:53am Phillippe: ↳ sydnius @9:51 très bien! et toi?
	♥ 9:53am sydnius: Comme ci comme ca
	♥ 9:54am TDK60: ↳ Krull Sagan @9:30 Krull: that influence of USA on Broadcast makes sonic sense. I still have my scratchy USA LP. I dig Broadcast. They also seem a bit adjacent to Stereolab too.
	♥ 9:54am Phillippe: ↳ sydnius @9:53 je t'entends
	♥ 9:55am tim from washington: Got it! Here's the album that Trouble just pulled from: broadcast.bandcamp.com... Here's a good start for diving into what's available online: www.openculture.com... Also, most of the 'significant' bands in the last part of the 20th century recorded Peel Sessions - Can, Joy Division, Buzzcocks, Siouxsie, Gang of Four, PJ Harvey et al and have released them at some point.
	♥ 9:56am Dano59: ↳ D Rok @9:49 that's about the size of it. eroding faith in all institutions including education and the media (& govt, medicine, science...) are part of the basic infrastructure for despots. the fact that people are being manipulated into supporting it ...
	♥ 9:56am tim from washington: ↳ TDK60 @9:54 Total USA vibe. I agree.
	♥ 9:56am Zinn The Mood: Speaking of birds and their calls… The opening chapter of Dan Saladino’s excellent “Eating To Extinction: The world's rarest foods and why we need to save them” is a marvelous, stunning story of the symbiotic relationship developed over thousands of years, between a Tanzanian tribe called the Hazda and the local honey guide bird, to gather the honey nectar grown in the high branches of baobab trees. The tribesmen all know the different kinds of calls and speak expertly with the birds, who guide them to the blossomed trees. They then climb the trees to smoke out the bees, releasing the honeycombs to the ground where the rest pack to bring back to the tribe. The birds are rewarded with the scattered bits they couldn’t have gotten without being lethally stung. Fascinating partnership of coexistence and thriving together. The Hazda are one of the oldest surviving hunter gatherer tribes in the world. The honey is an integral part of their exceptionally well nourished diet. Their organization of society also ensures a level of autonomy and freedom unimaginable in the modern world. No one person has any authority over another, made possible by the bounty of food available to all at any time. Sadly, with the encroachment of factory farms and livestock pastures all around them they’ve recently been introduced to the Western diet of processed food. Which seriously threatens that ancestral bond between bird and man, and of course the pure diet and anarchist culture of cohabitation.
	9:57am Robm: ↳ tim from washington @9:55 If your talking to me thanks, knew the listmind would come through
	♥ 9:57am sydnius: ↳ Phillippe @9:54 Malheuresment je réside aux Etas Unis, ce n'est bas bons ici. I have’t checed the news, I’m sure everything’s fine in France.
	9:57am headcleaner: ↳ Song: "warm in the dark" by "barbie bertisch" I think I'm awake now
	♥ 9:58am tim from washington: Yup! That post was for you, Robm
	♥ 9:58am Dano59: If there's a book about lesbian seagulls I'm sure it will be verboten
	9:59am Robm: ↳ Robm @9:57 And tim bookmarked the peel sessions for future listening, thanks so much
	♥ 10:02am Dano59: ↳ Robm @9:59 I have a few; not enough. Colorblind James Experience, Billy Bragg, and many officially unreleased ones e.g. Belle and Sebastian, Cat Power, Laura Cantrell, Nick Drake ...
	♥ 10:03am tim from washington: ↳ Robm @9:59 I think my favorite Peel Sessions is the Gang of Four sessions. If you're a Fall fan, a 6 cd boxset of all their Peel Sessions came out about 20 years ago. It's worth seeking out! I'm pretty sure I first heard about WFMU from a (literal) tape that was passed on to me. 3 or 4 Peel Sessions were on one side and the other side had a live set recorded on Pat Duncan's WFMU show. This was 1993 I think.
	♥ 10:03am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Morning all! Loving this version of "More than a Woman." I need the energy this AM!
	10:03am hendrix wolfbat: THANK YOU TROUBLE for the links and the information about HR5..signed and shared...especially great is the one from one click as it finds your rep and their phone #! invaluable!
	♥ 10:04am Mike Sin: ↳ Song: "more than a woman" by "tavares" I think I go with this version over the Bee Gees... even though its a Bee Gees original.
	♥ 10:04am Trouble: happy to share!! @hendrix
	10:04am Robm: ↳ tim from washington @10:03 Damn color me impressed Hey three moons
	♥ 10:04am sydnius: I hear Dave /gone/ loves this show. Training myself to say it correctly after 30 years, just like /haa san/ minhaj
	♥ 10:04am tim from washington: ↳ Mike Sin @10:04 Agreed!
	10:06am AYAYRON: Woo! Reppin NB! I live in Dartmouth MA! #Tavares
	♥ 10:06am Webhamster Henry: Trouble, Rhode Island is Famous for You! www.youtube.com...
	♥ 10:06am Acid Cazh: My wife's from Providence, and lived there when we first met. I love Providence. We'd move there in a heartbeat if there was work for the two of us.
	10:06am N'Lo: Trouble! I had no idea they were Cape Verdean! Also that we perhaps crossed over? IL ‘92!
	♥ 10:07am listener james from westwood: Providence was thoroughly charming when I visited in 2019 for a conference.
	10:07am Bluesky: I grew up on Fox Point!
	10:07am N'Lo: Your letter had me in stitches!
	10:08am Bluesky: IN Fox Point :-P
	♥ 10:08am iiibeat: The general function of the internet can and should: Destroy Occultism by readily propagating esoteric forms of information pertinent to art, science and government. The general function of the internet can and should: Quickly erode the hierarchical structure of the Republic by making available directly to civilians and constituents voting on every single issue that arises at any and all levels of government.
	10:09am Clefftone: New Beige spawn here. The Tavares were a local institution. A few of them did sound for every concert in the area. I think a few of their kids went on to play in the Maurice Star orbit (New Kids, New Edition, all that junk).
	♥ 10:10am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ Mxter Baba @9:07 Catching up on comments and can't possibly agree more! Found out that a very close friend of mine -- and a birthday twin -- is thinking of transitioning after lifelong crossdressing/closet femme behaviors. His kids are in JHS and HS and his wife is supportive, but as of right now, his kids can't honestly talk about their family situation or have access to any third party supportive services. And the status of his job protection is questionable. He's still presenting as male at work/using him/he and similar, but he's growing his hair out and starting electrolysis. It's bullshit and it feels like even more bullshit when someone you've known for 25+ years is subject to the bullshit. He's had his current job for over 15 years and of all things THAT'S what he's most worried about even though it's a desk job that is 90% remote at this point. Fuck censorship and fuck the anti-trans crowd. PS did you see the awesome footage of the Pee Boys getting their asses kicked in NYC when they came to protest Drag Story Hour? It was awesome.
	♥ 10:10am Phillippe: ↳ sydnius @9:57 Alas, French Phillippe is only an alter ego I created at least 20 years ago as a prank on some fantasy football friends. I worked on a project a few years ago that had a social media policy that restricted our use of our own names on certain sites, so I adopted Phillippe on a broader scale and it kind of stuck. I'm actually an eastern bloc mutt living in Annapolis, MD
	♥ 10:11am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ Zinn The Mood @9:56 That's amazing. I need to read it.
	10:12am Robm: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @10:10 When i heard that i loved it, hope your friend can transition without getting fired
	♥ 10:12am Zinn The Mood: More Than A Woman will always have me back to being a libidinous adolescent, forced into the first of four years in Catholic School, miserable about the restrictive environment but not unhappy about seeing all day bare legs and the revelatory white shirts required of the girls. Weird irony there i hadn’t thought of before. Like so much of religion and its institutions a lot doesn’t line up…
	♥ 10:15am iiibeat: I wouldn't mind reading that collage email . . Send it to iiibeat@yahoo.com, PLEASE!! lol
	♥ 10:15am sydnius: ↳ Phillippe @10:10 still, vive la Révolution!
	♥ 10:17am tim from washington: ↳ Song: "crush on ice" by "kraus" Is this Kraus from Benson? ;) This is pretty great!
	♥ 10:19am sydnius: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:12 give us your cheeldren
	♥ 10:21am MarginWalker in Baltimore: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:12 I'll start worrying about myself the day religion starts making sense to me.
	♥ 10:23am Jason from Houston: Hey there, good people.
	♥ 10:24am Phillippe: ↳ sydnius @10:15 exactly! Just heard the Yeah Yeah Yeah's "Off w/ Their Heads" last night, in fact. The spirit lives!
	♥ 10:25am HyperDose: Howdy Jason 🤠
	♥ 10:27am tim from washington: Hey Jason!
	♥ 10:29am sydnius: ↳ Song: "wood beez( pray like aretha farnklin)" by "scritt... Remember to use your Emulator ][ for good
	♥ 10:39am MarginWalker in Baltimore: Such a quiet chat compared to WAB🤭
	♥ 10:39am Kotzwinkled: Robert Palmer Hive rise up! There are dozens of us!
	♥ 10:40am StuHorvath: Hell yea Robert Palmer
	10:40am mr_soju: ↳ MarginWalker in Baltimore @10:39 The tunes are so good. I just want to bliss out and listen.
	♥ 10:41am hilaryprudy: Ah...my favorite Robert Palmer song...
	♥ 10:41am Brian in UK: Hello Trouble. Congratulations on making the Marathon successful. The great Robert Greenidge on steel pans.
	♥ 10:42am MarginWalker in Baltimore: ↳ hilaryprudy @10:41 If it's not, this could be a Marvin Gay cover. That's what it sounds like to me
	♥ 10:42am MarginWalker in Baltimore: ↳ mr_soju @10:40 That's cool; Def not a complaint
	10:43am Listener Schned: Thanks for the censorship link, Troubs! In return, you may want a look at this interview w/your JC Mayor Fulop: https://therealdeal.com/magazine/national-march-2023/new-york-new-york/
	♥ 10:46am Trouble: thanks listener schned: that will have to wait till after the show because i will be filled with four letter words and fury.
	♥ 10:46am Phillippe: ↳ Song: "underwater love" by "smoke city" love this
	♥ 10:48am Mxter Baba: ↳ Phillippe @10:46 digging it, too. hey there, Phillippe!
	♥ 10:48am tim from washington: ↳ Listener Schned @10:43 Is Mayor Fulop Jared and Ivanka's pal?
	♥ 10:49am northguineahills: ↳ Mxter Baba @10:48 i'm busy w/ school, so you and Phillipe dig-in for me, thanks!
	♥ 10:49am MarginWalker in Baltimore: ↳ tim from washington @10:48 Lizards have friends?
	10:53am the serpent: You’re killing it today Trouble!
	♥ 10:54am tim from washington: ↳ MarginWalker in Baltimore @10:49 Ha! Darwin didn't live long enough to see that evolutionary trend.
	10:57am Christy D: Grace at Hammerstein Ballroom in May!
	♥ 10:58am northguineahills: ↳ Christy D @10:57 wuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhh‽ ‽ ‽ ‽ ‽ ‽
	♥ 11:02am Webhamster Henry: Just want to point out that today is a palindrome day , 3/23/23.
	♥ 11:03am MarginWalker in Baltimore: ↳ Webhamster Henry @11:02 I love me some palindromes!
	11:03am David Baker: I'm in St Albans, in the UK, just north of London - listening to Trouble ( Clay) absolutely make my day - you guys are FABULOUS... Keep on keeping on. x
	♥ 11:03am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Webhamster Henry @11:02 Also, this Saturday is Earth Day. www.earthday.org... Enjoy it before it's gone! 🌎
	♥ 11:07am Karl Ward: The Dinner at Andy's Society
	♥ 11:07am Chris Hiatt: Hello All, late to the party today!
	♥ 11:07am MarginWalker in Baltimore: Birdy McBirdface Society?

	11:08am the serpent: The Not-ubon society?
	♥ 11:09am paddy in matawan: ↳ mndave @11:08 Cracked! Brilliant!
	♥ 11:09am northguineahills: ↳ Webhamster Henry @11:02 only if you use the n american dating system pre-Y2K
	♥ 11:09am Zinn The Mood: ↳ tim from washington @10:48 Wouldn’t be in the least surprised. Once in the club of power, whether political or money, all the things that disturb we Plebes in the 99% just make them chuckle. They’re truly birds of feather flocking together. The hyper-partisan divide that is turbo-charged by the mainstream media keeps us easily divided and conquered - while they, Dems and Repubs, laugh all the way to the bank at it all. Time for some epiphanies, folks. It’s a Big Club, and you and I aren’t in it. Carlin’s “American Dream” bit summed it up as succinctly as you’ll ever hear.
	♥ 11:11am northguineahills: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:03 but, since today marks my 6th Lucas prime completion orbiting the day star, it works for me!
	♥ 11:13am paul b: If the Audubon Society would just re-name themselves the Mayuko Fujino Society she could make collages for all the birds
	♥ 11:22am Little Danny: good morning, love this
	♥ 11:23am Zinn The Mood: Beautiful set here, Trouble. Making the baked tofu triangles the kids love, in a marinade of olive oil, Braggs amino acids, crushed rosemary, sumac and white pepper. Good vibe in the kitchen on this increasingly grey day. My favorite kind.
	♥ 11:25am Webhamster Henry: ↳ paul b @11:13 Don't forget Mayuko's radio show "Beakuency" wavefarm.org...
	♥ 11:25am Jason from Houston: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:23 Nice. Delicious combo.
	♥ 11:26am Acid Cazh: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:09 The actual devide is between employers (who exploit the surplus labor of workers), and the employed (those of us whose labor is exploited). I know it sounds Marxist, but David Ricardo identified this long before Marx was born. And Proudhon wrote about it a ton before Marx's theories really got off the ground. Either way, it holds true today. That's the real class divide.
	♥ 11:26am Trouble: o m g
	11:26am PJ: The Chipmunks do Ivy
	♥ 11:27am Acid Cazh: I was loving that, why'd you stop it Trouble?
	♥ 11:27am Webhamster Henry: Ken ran a record at the wrong speed yesterday ... A FLAC FILE WOULD NEVER DO THAT.
	11:27am Mike W.: Yayyy Try to pull THAT off, AI dj
	11:28am Robm: ↳ MarginWalker in Baltimore @10:39 You should have seen the chat on the marathon finale, could not keep up with it and did not try
	♥ 11:28am Hubig Pie: Jah, I was digging that . Sounds good at this speed too.
	♥ 11:28am Yes: ↳ Mike W. @11:27 :)
	♥ 11:29am MarginWalker in Baltimore: ↳ Robm @11:28 Yeah, I totally get that. It was out of control
	♥ 11:29am Ironside: ivy works both at normal speed AND sped up
	11:31am Robm: ↳ MarginWalker in Baltimore @11:29 It got to the point where if i wanted to reply to someone, 10 posts would go by in the blink of an eye and after i while i said screw it
	♥ 11:37am Trouble: about today's artwork www.britishmuseum.org...
	♥ 11:37am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:26 Absolutely. Would love to see an organized worker uprising that paralyzed the whole system (sorry folks, the treats must be halted for a time!). Our labor and how we choose to spend our money is the only real power we can exert. It’s weird, this thinking that was exclusively the domain of Left wing thought might at this moment be gaining some traction in RW circles too. Need to read up on David Ricardo. If anybody’s interested one of the best takes on all of this apocalyptic talk and the alienation driving it that we feel you have to check out Matt Christman’s latest: podcasts.apple.com...
	♥ 11:38am northguineahills: ↳ Robm @11:31 slow down, what were you saying?, I couldn't keep up... 😜
	♥ 11:39am MarginWalker in Baltimore: On that topic, if anyone had the time and interest to do so, please check out my wife's art page on IG: instagram.com... Thanks!
	11:40am Robm: ↳ northguineahills @11:38 No shit NGH:)
	♥ 11:40am northguineahills: ↳ MarginWalker in Baltimore @11:39 done! thanks!
	♥ 11:40am Acid Cazh: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:37 Not super familiar with David Ricardo, he's a classical economist in the vein of Adam Smith. He just identified the surplus labor, I don't know if he identified it as a problem (like Proudhon, Marx, Kropotkin, and others) I've got my IWW Red Card in my wallet, ready for when the General Strike comes. ✊
	♥ 11:41am MarginWalker in Baltimore: ↳ northguineahills @11:40 Much appreciated!
	♥ 11:42am Bill K: Beautiful artwork!
	♥ 11:48am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Jason from Houston @11:25 Have been making it for about 20 years now. Pretty much a take on a recipe from Angelika’s, one of the earlier vegan restaurants in NYC, before they like so many were crushed by greedy price-gouging realty rapists. The whole LES seems to have been transformed from artist enclave refuge housing some of the greats across the board for decades and decades, to just another upscale franchise-drenched and boutique-shopping playground for the wealthy, trust fund kiddies and Big Tech and NYU sprawl. Much more so than I remember it playing in bands down there 30 years ago. Some day, I hope, we’ll find ourselves looking in one another’s direction and revolt in solidarity , with numbers significant enough to overwhelm this predatory capitalist system that drives all this angst and alienation, and we’ll finally have a more equitable socialist society in which all are dignified.
	♥ 11:51am Trouble: thanks for tuning in this morning! see you next week.
	♥ 11:52am Ironside: Amazing set Trouble! Thank you!!!
	♥ 11:53am Little Danny: beautiful sounds here
	♥ 11:53am TDK60: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:48 Zinn, I know several people, counterculture folks, artists, radicals still holding out in the East Village/Lower East Side. And the working class in general too- Puerto Rican, Black, Ukrainian, Chinese, etc.
	♥ 11:54am love2laf: Thank you for the beautiful sounds Trouble, always great to hear your show, even when I can't join in and engage on the comments board. Thank you for starting my day off right.
	11:54am Gaston Musella: Awesome copsmos cut
	♥ 11:55am Jason from Houston: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:48 Here for it, boss. I look at little everyday actions as a help but that's not going to smash the banks and capitalism the way I want.
	♥ 11:55am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:03 Upon closer inspection, Earth Day is next month. 8:30 PM this Saturday is Earth Hour, when one can turn off some electricity for an hour. www.earthhour.org 🕣 Thanks for the beauty this morning, Trouble.
	11:55am Pax: Nice show Troubly Wubbly, have a good day.
	♥ 11:56am Phillippe: Thank you Trouble!
	♥ 11:56am TDK60: Thanks, DJ Trouble! My ears (what's left of 'em) made my brain happy.
	♥ 11:56am Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "tagada, night rises" by "mary lattimore & growing" This is lovely!
	♥ 11:56am Jason from Houston: Many thanks, Trouble. This Lattimore & Growing is a delight. Phew...
	♥ 11:56am Rich in Washington: Thanks for a wonderful show this morning, Trouble!
	♥ 11:58am Zinn The Mood: ↳ TDK60 @11:53 Two musician friends left fairly recently. One, to survive the ever-increasing obscene rent, had to convert his already tiny railroad apt into an Airbnb. In which he somehow managed to stuff a bed into a tiny office space, literally taking up 95% of the floor space. Without this arrangement he would have to had to leave years ago. There are some, sure, who still somehow manage to exist there. But many I would guess are grandfathered in on some kind of rent controlled situation.
