	🎭 7:15pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @7:13 When I sing it, it's a completely different song. Believe me.
	7:17pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:15 I always confused your singing and Janis'...
	🎭 7:17pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @7:17 The screams were about the same.
	7:18pm doctorjazz: Online course to do while I listen.
	7:18pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:17 Not an easy thing to pull off (and avoid nodes on your vocal cords...)
	🎭 7:19pm L. Gregory: ↳ Song: "Panchamithirunaal" by "P. Madhuri" On the album cover, the director uses an initial for his last name, and the music director uses an initial for their first name. They should get their acts together!
	🎭 7:19pm L. Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @7:18 Yeah, I took early retirement.
	🎭 7:24pm WR: ↳ L. Gregory @7:19 The album cover designer messed up: Aloysius Vincent en.wikipedia.org... Paravoor Govindan Devarajan popularly known as G. Devarajan en.wikipedia.org...
	7:25pm doctorjazz: There were actually predictions when Janis was performing that she'd blow her voice out if she continued in the same way. Unfortunately, she didn't live long enough to see if the predictions would be correct.
	🎭 7:26pm Listener G.: ↳ Song: "Gori Tu Latth Maar" by "Sonu Nigam & Palak Muchhal" Can't believe you cued this up in response to my bathroom comment, Bronwyn!! You are the best.
	🎭 7:27pm WR: ↳ Song: "Gori Tu Latth Maar" by "Sonu Nigam & Palak Muchhal" translation of film title: Toilet: A Love Story
	7:29pm Stan: And now for something completely different….hahaha. Lovin the show!
	🎭 7:29pm Listener G.: ↳ WR @7:27 Welcome to Urinetown!
	7:29pm doctorjazz: Was the movie really about Toilets, or does something get lost in the translation?
	🎭 7:30pm WR: ↳ Listener G. @7:29 It is a wacky comedy: en.wikipedia.org...
	🎭 7:31pm WR: ↳ WR @7:30 "It was reported that it based on the true story of Anita Narre from Madhya Pradesh, who refused to go back to her husband Shivram's home because it had no toilet."
	7:34pm Roberto: I'm all for the eradication of open defecation.
	7:34pm Black Cat: Did the home have a toilet before? It’s hard to take a step back on that sort of thing. 🐈‍⬛💛🐈‍⬛
	7:37pm Jeff g. via app: Hello.
	🎭 7:38pm Listener Gregory: One of the most interesting books I've read is The Big Necessity, about human waste. It has a long treatment of the drive to bring toilets to rural India and the difficulty in getting people to accept them (!). Plus other, closer-to-home issues. us.macmillan.com...
	7:39pm doctorjazz: ↳ Jeff g. via app @7:37 Hey, Jeff G!
	🎭 7:41pm Listener Gregory: Jeff G just in time for the toilet discussion! Elephants on Parade... it is rare that I recognize a show tune because I'm familiar with its Sun Ra performance... which this is??
	🎭 7:45pm WR: ↳ Song: "Medley Five ("Technicolor Pachyderms")" by "Sun R... OMG. I somehow totally missed that this album exists.
	7:45pm Jeff g. via app: It’s quite a varied record.
	🎭 7:45pm Listener Gregory: ↳ WR @7:45 It's a Hal Willner production, I believe. Wonderful.
	7:46pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @7:45 It is a Wilner production; it's much fun!
	7:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Medley Five ("Technicolor Pachyderms")" by "Sun R... It's from back in 1988...www.discogs.com...
	7:50pm Dean: What a playlist? I've only just been able to check in. I have to confess that "Summertime" is one of my least favorite songs, I think in part because it seems very hard to sing.
	7:50pm Dean: I meant, "What a playlist!"
	7:53pm Dean: What? A playlist?
	🎭 7:55pm TonyR: Punctuation. Those little marks that use their influence...
	🎭 7:55pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Dean @7:53 You say "playlist?", I say "playlist!" Let's call the whole thing off.
	🎭 7:56pm TonyR: Who's on playlist?
	7:58pm adamdoesit: Hi Bronwyn and jazzèd of hand! I'm 100% there for Coal Mousie's Whisker.
	7:59pm Dean: Let's call the hole thing offal.
	8:03pm Dean: Yes, TonyR, during Roger Daltrey tribute shows Who's on playlist.
	🎭 8:05pm TonyR: Had the "Dumbo" soundtrrack album as a kid, and "Pink Elephants" and "When I see an Elephant Fly" were my favorites. (This was before our hostess was born.) I think the latter was all racist charicature, yes?
	🎭 8:05pm TonyR: ↳ Dean @8:03 Third base!
	8:07pm Dean: Let's see...Entwistle, Palladino, Button. Third bass.
	🎭 8:08pm TonyR: ↳ Dean @8:07 I don't know.
	🎭 8:08pm Listener Gregory: ↳ TonyR @8:05 I believe I saw Dumbo in the theater as a child. He could fly. That is 100% of my memory of it.
	8:09pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "I Hung My Head and Cried" by "Elton Britt" Loved that!
	🎭 8:09pm TonyR: For best results use RCA Victor needles.
	🎭 8:13pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:08 None of the release dates of Dumbo listed in Wikipedia correspond with a plausible date I could have seen the film in a theater as a child, so... another false memory? I must have seen it on The Wonderful World of Disney or something.
	🎭 8:14pm Listener Gregory: ↳ TonyR @8:09 Try as you might, you will never surpass my Edison cylinders.
	🎭 8:15pm TonyR: Dear recruiters: If I have to get my ass to Allentown at a moment's notice, that job you're advertising is not "100% remote". So, just stop it.
	🎭 8:16pm WR: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:13 Disney periodically released it: per Wikipedia: The film was re-released in theaters in 1949, 1959, 1972, and 1976
	🎭 8:17pm WR: ↳ WR @8:16 Or on TV...
	🎭 8:18pm Listener Gregory: ↳ WR @8:16 Yeah, but it should have been the early 60s. I don't believe I saw it when I was 3.
	8:20pm Dean: I applied to NASA to become an astronaut. Turns out they don't permit remote work.
	🎭 8:21pm WR: Bronwyn, regarding today's episode (and you still have more to go): What! A! Playlist!
	8:22pm Dean: Pretty sure I saw Dumbo in the theater. No, wait, it was Deep Throat.
	🎭 8:22pm TonyR: I prefer onsite work(I just think I'm that charming.), but come ON with this bait for sh*t jobs, already.
	🎭 8:23pm TonyR: Dumbo IS Deep Throat.
	8:24pm Dean: Sometimes an elephant's trunk is just an elephant's trunk.
	🎭 8:24pm Listener Gregory: ↳ TonyR @8:23 Are big ears a sign of big other things?
	8:25pm Dean: (In fact, I have seen Dumbo, but I have not seen Deep Throat, and I have no desire to do so. For that matter, I have no desire to see Dumbo again.)
	🎭 8:25pm TonyR: "I think I've seen about everything..."
	8:25pm Dean: Smart girls know that big ears means...big shoes.
	🎭 8:26pm TonyR: Howabout the video of "Dumbo" synced with the dialogue from DT?
	🎭 8:27pm Listener Gregory: Pretty sure that there is now an AI program that will replace an actor in Deep Throat with Dumbo. I just pray that the kids don't believe Dumbo actually does those things.
	8:27pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "La Sultana" by "Los Teen Agers" I read the cover as "Chinga."
	8:27pm Dean: Or vice versa. That I might watch. Dear lord, who needs AI to "replace an actor in Deep Throat with Dumbo"? Have we lost our imaginations?
	🎭 8:27pm TonyR: I have now (at least two) deep personal AI friends who are giving me resume advice.
	🎭 8:29pm WR: ↳ Roberto @8:27 yeah, me too.
	8:30pm Dean: I have "fantasies" that would have made Al Goldstein blush. Porn is superfluous, and usually exploitative.
	🎭 8:30pm TonyR: We need to use our powers for good and replace LinkedIn with "Dumbo".
	🎭 8:31pm WR: ↳ Song: "Campanitas de Cristal" by "Orlando Contreras" This cover and the music we just heard, I have hard time putting them together.
	🎭 8:33pm TonyR: Carnitas et Cristal!
	🎭 8:41pm Listener Gregory: Bronwyn, you can tell that Los Teen Agers are actually teenagers by their crazy sweaters and white socks.
	🎭 8:44pm TonyR: "I can't eat the rice."
	🎭 8:45pm Listener Gregory: Working on getting ChatGPT to provide a blurb for this show. However, so far little luck (this is real): "Bronwyn Bishop is an Australian politician and former speaker of the Australian House of Representatives. She is also known for her controversial political views and actions. However, I am not aware of any show called "Acid Jazz Hands" that she has been a part of. It is possible that this is a reference to a satirical or comedic performance featuring Bishop, but without further context, it is difficult for me to provide a detailed response. If you could provide more information or clarify your question, I would be happy to assist you further."
	🎭 8:45pm Listener Gregory: BTW, I had no idea, Bronwyn!
	🎭 8:46pm Listener Gregory: Second try: "The WFMU Give the Drummer radio show "Acid Jazz Hands" is a weekly program that airs on Fridays from 9 pm to midnight Eastern Time. Hosted by DJ Doug Schulkind, the show focuses on exploring the diverse world of jazz music, with a particular emphasis on the more experimental and avant-garde subgenres. The show features a mix of classic and contemporary jazz recordings, along with live performances, interviews, and in-studio jam sessions. DJ Schulkind has been hosting the show since 2011, and his extensive knowledge of jazz and his passion for the genre make "Acid Jazz Hands" a must-listen for any jazz enthusiast."
	🎭 8:47pm Listener Gregory: Maybe AI ought to stick to that whole Dumbo porn thing.
	8:48pm Dean: I was bored with AI after reading a profile in New Yorker in 1981 about Marvin Minsky. A monumental waste of intellectual talent.
	8:49pm doctorjazz: Almost the end, Great show, thanks Bronwyn!
	🎭 8:49pm TonyR: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:46 Yeah, this was basically as useful as my AI-generated resume advice.
	🎭 8:50pm Listener Gregory: Final try: "I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. However, as an AI language model, I rely on the information provided to me, and my knowledge cutoff is in 2021. As such, I am not aware of any radio show hosted by Bronwyn Bishop called "Acid Jazz Hands" airing on any radio network, including WFMU. It's possible that this information is incorrect or outdated. If you could provide more context or clarify your question, I would be happy to assist you further." Oy.
	🎭 8:50pm Listener Gregory: But clearly you need a better publicist, Ms. B.
	🎭 8:51pm Listener Gregory: ↳ TonyR @8:49 My brother asked the model to generate a description of my career. It was wonderful! Beautifully written too. 2/3s of it was total fiction, but it greatly improved in reality, so I'm not complaining.
	🎭 8:54pm TonyR: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:50 Be a team player and fill out the ten-page questionnaire about AJH.
	🎭 8:55pm WR: ↳ Song: "Ripspiqué" by "Drs. P" I think I need to ask Jan Turkenburg of the Sheena stream about this song.
	🎭 8:56pm TonyR: ↳ TonyR @8:54 Or don't. I enjoy not being in the Matrix. Does AI know about Techtonic??
	🎭 8:57pm Listener Gregory: ↳ TonyR @8:56 I don't know what that is, but I learned from ChatGPT, "Additionally, "Techtonic" may also refer to a radio program on WFMU hosted by Mark Hurst, which focuses on exploring the intersection of technology and culture. The show covers a range of topics, including social media, privacy, and the impact of technology on society." So there.
	8:58pm Dean: "learned" That's beautiful.
	🎭 8:58pm Listener Gregory: Great show, Bronwyn. I apologize for my comments.
	8:59pm Dean: I, too, apologize for Listener Gregory's comments.
	🎭 9:00pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Dean @8:59 Thank you, Dean. It will probably take quite a few to cover everything.
	🎭 9:01pm TonyR: Saw "Salo" on the big analog screen.
	🎭 9:02pm Listener Gregory: "Cheek to Cheek" is one of the very best show tunes, IMHO.
	🎭 9:02pm TonyR: LOVE this song (C2C).
	9:02pm Dean: Shoot! Salo! A faint memory, and I think I saw it. What's the story on it?
	🎭 9:03pm WR: Thank you Bronwyn!
	9:03pm Dean: Ah, Pasolini. I saw Canterbury Tales, and maybe Salo, too?
	🎭 9:04pm TonyR: BB covered it. A lush, well-photographed fable of the four oppressive pillars of society, (Church, Army, etc.) keeping a group of young men and women chained up, tortured, and eating "rice".

	🎭 8:08pm Listener Gregory: ↳ TonyR @8:05 I believe I saw Dumbo in the theater as a child. He could fly. That is 100% of my memory of it.
	8:09pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "I Hung My Head and Cried" by "Elton Britt" Loved that!
	🎭 8:09pm TonyR: For best results use RCA Victor needles.
	🎭 8:13pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:08 None of the release dates of Dumbo listed in Wikipedia correspond with a plausible date I could have seen the film in a theater as a child, so... another false memory? I must have seen it on The Wonderful World of Disney or something.
	🎭 8:14pm Listener Gregory: ↳ TonyR @8:09 Try as you might, you will never surpass my Edison cylinders.
	🎭 8:15pm TonyR: Dear recruiters: If I have to get my ass to Allentown at a moment's notice, that job you're advertising is not "100% remote". So, just stop it.
	🎭 8:16pm WR: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:13 Disney periodically released it: per Wikipedia: The film was re-released in theaters in 1949, 1959, 1972, and 1976
	🎭 8:17pm WR: ↳ WR @8:16 Or on TV...
	🎭 8:18pm Listener Gregory: ↳ WR @8:16 Yeah, but it should have been the early 60s. I don't believe I saw it when I was 3.
	8:20pm Dean: I applied to NASA to become an astronaut. Turns out they don't permit remote work.
	🎭 8:21pm WR: Bronwyn, regarding today's episode (and you still have more to go): What! A! Playlist!
	8:22pm Dean: Pretty sure I saw Dumbo in the theater. No, wait, it was Deep Throat.
	🎭 8:22pm TonyR: I prefer onsite work(I just think I'm that charming.), but come ON with this bait for sh*t jobs, already.
	🎭 8:23pm TonyR: Dumbo IS Deep Throat.
	8:24pm Dean: Sometimes an elephant's trunk is just an elephant's trunk.
	🎭 8:24pm Listener Gregory: ↳ TonyR @8:23 Are big ears a sign of big other things?
	8:25pm Dean: (In fact, I have seen Dumbo, but I have not seen Deep Throat, and I have no desire to do so. For that matter, I have no desire to see Dumbo again.)
	🎭 8:25pm TonyR: "I think I've seen about everything..."
	8:25pm Dean: Smart girls know that big ears means...big shoes.
	🎭 8:26pm TonyR: Howabout the video of "Dumbo" synced with the dialogue from DT?
	🎭 8:27pm Listener Gregory: Pretty sure that there is now an AI program that will replace an actor in Deep Throat with Dumbo. I just pray that the kids don't believe Dumbo actually does those things.
	8:27pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "La Sultana" by "Los Teen Agers" I read the cover as "Chinga."
	8:27pm Dean: Or vice versa. That I might watch. Dear lord, who needs AI to "replace an actor in Deep Throat with Dumbo"? Have we lost our imaginations?
	🎭 8:27pm TonyR: I have now (at least two) deep personal AI friends who are giving me resume advice.
	🎭 8:29pm WR: ↳ Roberto @8:27 yeah, me too.
	8:30pm Dean: I have "fantasies" that would have made Al Goldstein blush. Porn is superfluous, and usually exploitative.
	🎭 8:30pm TonyR: We need to use our powers for good and replace LinkedIn with "Dumbo".
	🎭 8:31pm WR: ↳ Song: "Campanitas de Cristal" by "Orlando Contreras" This cover and the music we just heard, I have hard time putting them together.
	🎭 8:33pm TonyR: Carnitas et Cristal!
	🎭 8:41pm Listener Gregory: Bronwyn, you can tell that Los Teen Agers are actually teenagers by their crazy sweaters and white socks.
	🎭 8:44pm TonyR: "I can't eat the rice."
	🎭 8:45pm Listener Gregory: Working on getting ChatGPT to provide a blurb for this show. However, so far little luck (this is real): "Bronwyn Bishop is an Australian politician and former speaker of the Australian House of Representatives. She is also known for her controversial political views and actions. However, I am not aware of any show called "Acid Jazz Hands" that she has been a part of. It is possible that this is a reference to a satirical or comedic performance featuring Bishop, but without further context, it is difficult for me to provide a detailed response. If you could provide more information or clarify your question, I would be happy to assist you further."
	🎭 8:45pm Listener Gregory: BTW, I had no idea, Bronwyn!
	🎭 8:46pm Listener Gregory: Second try: "The WFMU Give the Drummer radio show "Acid Jazz Hands" is a weekly program that airs on Fridays from 9 pm to midnight Eastern Time. Hosted by DJ Doug Schulkind, the show focuses on exploring the diverse world of jazz music, with a particular emphasis on the more experimental and avant-garde subgenres. The show features a mix of classic and contemporary jazz recordings, along with live performances, interviews, and in-studio jam sessions. DJ Schulkind has been hosting the show since 2011, and his extensive knowledge of jazz and his passion for the genre make "Acid Jazz Hands" a must-listen for any jazz enthusiast."
	🎭 8:47pm Listener Gregory: Maybe AI ought to stick to that whole Dumbo porn thing.
	8:48pm Dean: I was bored with AI after reading a profile in New Yorker in 1981 about Marvin Minsky. A monumental waste of intellectual talent.
	8:49pm doctorjazz: Almost the end, Great show, thanks Bronwyn!
	🎭 8:49pm TonyR: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:46 Yeah, this was basically as useful as my AI-generated resume advice.
	🎭 8:50pm Listener Gregory: Final try: "I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. However, as an AI language model, I rely on the information provided to me, and my knowledge cutoff is in 2021. As such, I am not aware of any radio show hosted by Bronwyn Bishop called "Acid Jazz Hands" airing on any radio network, including WFMU. It's possible that this information is incorrect or outdated. If you could provide more context or clarify your question, I would be happy to assist you further." Oy.
	🎭 8:50pm Listener Gregory: But clearly you need a better publicist, Ms. B.
	🎭 8:51pm Listener Gregory: ↳ TonyR @8:49 My brother asked the model to generate a description of my career. It was wonderful! Beautifully written too. 2/3s of it was total fiction, but it greatly improved in reality, so I'm not complaining.
	🎭 8:54pm TonyR: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:50 Be a team player and fill out the ten-page questionnaire about AJH.
	🎭 8:55pm WR: ↳ Song: "Ripspiqué" by "Drs. P" I think I need to ask Jan Turkenburg of the Sheena stream about this song.
	🎭 8:56pm TonyR: ↳ TonyR @8:54 Or don't. I enjoy not being in the Matrix. Does AI know about Techtonic??
	🎭 8:57pm Listener Gregory: ↳ TonyR @8:56 I don't know what that is, but I learned from ChatGPT, "Additionally, "Techtonic" may also refer to a radio program on WFMU hosted by Mark Hurst, which focuses on exploring the intersection of technology and culture. The show covers a range of topics, including social media, privacy, and the impact of technology on society." So there.
	8:58pm Dean: "learned" That's beautiful.
	🎭 8:58pm Listener Gregory: Great show, Bronwyn. I apologize for my comments.
	8:59pm Dean: I, too, apologize for Listener Gregory's comments.
	🎭 9:00pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Dean @8:59 Thank you, Dean. It will probably take quite a few to cover everything.
	🎭 9:01pm TonyR: Saw "Salo" on the big analog screen.
	🎭 9:02pm Listener Gregory: "Cheek to Cheek" is one of the very best show tunes, IMHO.
	🎭 9:02pm TonyR: LOVE this song (C2C).
	9:02pm Dean: Shoot! Salo! A faint memory, and I think I saw it. What's the story on it?
	🎭 9:03pm WR: Thank you Bronwyn!
	9:03pm Dean: Ah, Pasolini. I saw Canterbury Tales, and maybe Salo, too?
	🎭 9:04pm TonyR: BB covered it. A lush, well-photographed fable of the four oppressive pillars of society, (Church, Army, etc.) keeping a group of young men and women chained up, tortured, and eating "rice".
