	🥁 8:59pm Aitch: It would appear that my radio is broken...
	9:00pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @8:57 Hi Michael! How's it going!
	9:00pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Aitch @8:59 Aitch! How goes the move?
	9:00pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:00 I'm lame.
	🥁 9:00pm Aitch: Can't believe it was but a week!
	9:01pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:00 Sorry! Hope you're unlame soon!
	9:01pm ultradamno: Rich! Breaker-Breakers, Good Buddies!
	9:01pm ironybread: Hi everybody! Raise your hand if you wrote off the USA in 2001 and nothing that happened today changes that!!!
	9:01pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Aitch @9:00 I'm just now recovering from my move.
	9:02pm Rich in Washington: 10-4, ultra!
	9:02pm ironybread: J. Arthur Rank on Gong! #BonzoDogBand
	9:02pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ironybread @9:01 Hi ironybread! Yep. But still, the wonders never cease sometimes.
	🥁 9:03pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:01 I still haven't unpacked half my shit, although I should note that I didn't get most of it till early this month. Took Monday off, hopefully I get stuff out of boxes over the next four days.
	9:03pm pot8o: hi everyone!
	🥁 9:03pm Aitch: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:01 This one better for cheaper, happy times, only 5 blocks away, but considerably less industrial. There's even some grass
	9:03pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ironybread @9:02 Adolph hitler on vibes, looking very relaxed
	🥁 9:04pm WR: I haven't listened to radio in years.
	🥁 9:04pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:03 LOL
	9:04pm Rich in Washington: KAT! WR!
	9:05pm Rich in Washington: Whoa. Did you hear a dropout?
	🥁 9:05pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Aitch @9:03 Yay grass and better for cheaper
	9:05pm ironybread: Gary Promuleta Casanova on horns!
	9:05pm ultradamno: RIP AA twitter.com...
	🥁 9:05pm Aitch: ↳ Song: ""that's some catch, Catch-22"" by "Alan Arkin, Ja... Lepage glue-gun. Glues an entire formation together mid air....
	9:05pm ironybread: Yes, I heard a dropout.
	9:05pm spodiodi: hi Rich, and Broken peeps!
	9:06pm Rich in Washington: ↳ spodiodi @9:05 Spodi!
	🥁 9:07pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "The Three Billy-Goats Gruff" by "Bob Thomas" Here's a kiddie tale I'd totally forgotten the plot of.
	9:08pm StringOFperils: Pretty crowded under that bridge these days.
	🥁 9:09pm Kat in the chat: ↳ StringOFperils @9:08 yep, lotta trolls out there
	9:09pm spodiodi: i'm on the trolls' side! to heck with goats
	9:10pm TDK60: Hi Rich.
	9:11pm Rich in Washington: ↳ TDK60 @9:10 Hi TDK!
	🥁 9:12pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Sharkey's Day" by "Laurie Anderson" This one has been in my head a lot since I moved to Phlly and I don't know why
	🥁 9:12pm Kat in the chat: Maybe it's the "nobody knows me, nobody knows my name"
	9:13pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:12 Yeah! That makes sense!
	🥁 9:13pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:13 There's so much freedom associated with that
	9:14pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:13 It's funny how songs earworm like that.
	9:15pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:13 There are songs I've added to my playlist for reasons like that since I've uprooted myself.
	🥁 9:15pm Kat in the chat: I need a radio show again so I can foist my earworms on the listening public (all four or five of them)
	🥁 9:16pm Kat in the chat: (five listeners, not earworms)
	9:16pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:15 Yes. Free the earworms!
	9:16pm Rich in Washington: It's like Cronenberg's Shivers.
	🥁 9:17pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:16 yikes :)
	9:18pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Sharkey's Day" by "Laurie Anderson" I recall listening to this Laurie then and diggin' the sound (still do) but I realize I've never followed the lyrics/story.
	9:18pm ultradamno: We're under a smoke air quality advisory and these people start in with the military grade fireworks. MX-80!!!!
	🥁 9:19pm Kat in the chat: My new fun phone game is comparing the AQIs of the four cities in my weather favorites (Philly, NYC, Montreal, Chicago)
	9:20pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @9:18 Ugh. Sorry! That was us for the last couple of years. In fact, one of the worst fires in the Columbia Gorge was cause by some fool tossing fireworks into a wooded canyon.
	9:20pm Rich in Washington: and the one near my old home that made us evacuate last year was caused by buffoons and fireworks
	9:21pm spodiodi: nomeansno!
	9:21pm spodiodi: ↳ Song: "Everyday I Start To Ooze" by "NoMeansNo" joy!
	🥁 9:22pm Kat in the chat: People are so fucking stupid about fireworks
	9:22pm spodiodi: you could have put a period after stupid
	🥁 9:23pm Kat in the chat: ↳ spodiodi @9:22 true
	9:23pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:22 It's infantile and very dangerous. This is the driest June/July that I can recall. I am not looking forward to the 4th and the time around it where dum dums are lighting shit off.
	9:24pm TDK60: ↳ ultradamno @9:18 ultradamno: Where are you? NYC here. Fireworks here have already started. Loud and late amid very smoky air. I'm hoping this summer is not as horrid as 2020 was: month & a half of loud explosions (and the fixed exhaust cars roaring too). I'm bracing myself for lost sleep...
	9:24pm spodiodi: it's never stopped here in sf and farther south
	9:24pm ultradamno: ↳ TDK60 @9:24 East Central Indiana (just south of Muncie)
	9:24pm TDK60: Hey, I wasn't looking and thought this sounded like NoMeansNo! Saw 'em once.
	9:25pm Uncle Michael: I'm not sure I need a "seek shelter" storm right now.
	9:26pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:25 Aw crap! Really? Stay safe!
	🥁 9:26pm WR: I get various transit alerts in case I decided to ever leave my lair. Get ones like this a few times a week "NWK-WTC resuming normal service. The earlier incident with a disruptive passenger has been resolved at NWK. We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused." The same impersonal message each time. Even though this week we have not had those Blade Runner orange skies recently, for some reason today I imagine the worse regarding what actually happened and the resolution
	9:27pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:26 Yep, really.
	9:27pm ultradamno: We had that earlier this week, though the tornado struck pretty far from here..
	9:28pm spodiodi: ↳ Song: "Heave Ho" by "Cows" cunning stunt bonus -- a common award in "Carmageddon" :D
	🥁 9:28pm WR: ↳ Song: "Heave Ho" by "Cows" Entertained by their classic bluenote records album cover styling.
	9:28pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:27 Tornado?
	9:29pm Uncle Michael: Nah, just 80 mph straight line winds.
	9:29pm ultradamno: Pretty impressive footage though weather.com...
	9:29pm spodiodi: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:29 woof
	9:30pm Uncle Michael: Fellas, it's been good to know ya.
	9:30pm Uncle Michael: The front is about 30 minutes away.
	9:31pm TDK60: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:30 UM, Good luck if it helps.
	9:31pm Uncle Michael: ↳ TDK60 @9:31 Thanks.
	9:33pm ironybread: Yes indeed, Rich, if I had a copy of "The Three Billy-Goats Gruff" right now I'd spend the next three hours restoring it. #CantStopMyself
	9:34pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:30 Crud! Seriously! Stay safe!
	🥁 9:34pm WR: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:30 Interior wall closet, if possible, if you can, but you know all that and the problem is your limited agility.
	9:34pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ironybread @9:33 Well, look no further! I've got records with your name on them!
	9:35pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:31 Are you standing by for evacuation orders or something?
	9:35pm chresti: Hi Rich and radio breakers!
	9:36pm Rich in Washington: ↳ chresti @9:35 It's chresti!
	9:36pm ironybread: Here's Gregory Jacobsen folks www.gregoryjacobsen.com
	9:36pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:35 If we hear sirens well go to the storm shelter.
	9:37pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ironybread @9:36 His WFMU radio shows were a thing of beauty, too.
	9:37pm chresti: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:36 Yikes!
	9:38pm ironybread: Jesus fuck Uncle Michael, out of curiosity what's your zip code #TotalWeatherDanger
	9:38pm Uncle Michael: I'm too hopped up on goofballs to panic.
	9:38pm Uncle Michael: 66049
	9:40pm Dean: I wish I were hopped up. I've never like Melvins.
	9:40pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:38 reminds me of when we evacuated because of a nearby wildfire and my brain was still fizzing from my medical adventure and all the drugs. Dang! I hope everything will be OK!
	🥁 9:40pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:38 I hope so too!
	9:40pm Dean: ^liked
	9:41pm ironybread: Uncle Michael, can you hide under the surface of Clinton Lake
	9:42pm pot8o: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:25 stay safe out there!
	9:42pm Uncle Michael: ↳ ironybread @9:41 Uhhhhhh....
	9:46pm Dean: (Same for KG&tLW. Sorry!)
	9:47pm Rich in Washington: ↳ pot8o @9:42 Hi pot8o!
	9:47pm northguineahills: b/c i'm so exciting, I've been at a cafe talking to a friend on the phone about chatGPT plugins for GIS for my ConEd interview Monday while an Orange 9mm meets screamocore band plays inside (i knew eventually, i'd find something, 'interesting' around here, once allowed to wander...)
	9:48pm Dean: All of this goes to why I embrace WFMU. I learn not only about new musics that I adore, but also about those that I don't appreciate.
	9:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Dean @9:48 We're an equal opportunity deployer
	9:49pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @9:48 how long do you have?
	9:50pm northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @9:49 yes, that was an existential question as well
	9:50pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Motor Spirit" by "King Gizzard And The Lizard Wiz... I'm not yet sure if KGTLW is my cup of armageddon tea but they do appear to be peppy musickers.
	9:50pm Uncle Michael: Wind has begun gusting.
	9:50pm Franco Twinkie: Hey ho, Rich and extra helpings!
	9:51pm Rich in Washington: Franco! Ahoy!
	9:51pm Dean: @ngh, you mean to live? I dunno, but it could be any day, any year.
	9:51pm Rich in Washington: did someone say 'more Melvins'?
	9:51pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @9:51 how long do you have to learn about music that you don't appreciate...(tongue in cheek, i was)
	9:51pm Dean: Wasn't me!
	9:52pm northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @9:51 and it can be mirrored back at me...
	🥁 9:54pm Kat in the chat: Not a massive Melvins fan myself, but I must say I'm enjoying these TG covers.
	9:57pm Uncle Michael: First raindrops, mebbe.
	9:58pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:57 Dang. We should put you on the air for live coverage.
	9:58pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:58 don't make him mike cantore!
	9:58pm Uncle Michael: I can totally Jim Cantori this.
	9:59pm northguineahills: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:58 err jim (his brother is also a meteorologist)
	10:00pm ultradamno: Speaking of MX-80, are you familiar with Chinaboise? (pre-MX-80 Rich Stim with some assist from MX-80 members Bruce Anderson and Dale Sophia) seems like they would be a good fit for this show www.discogs.com... they also appear on this comp www.discogs.com...
	10:00pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:00 I've heard of them but I don't think I've ever HEARD them.
	10:01pm Mr Fab: 4 day weekeeeeeend! Sorry, Rich. I get a little excited about these things sometimes.
	10:02pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:54 I was at a beach party and this gothish person shows up and looks totally out of place. I asked someone who she was. " A Melvin." She didn't stay long.
	10:02pm chresti: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:38 A good time to be on goofballs
	10:02pm ironybread: ↳ ultradamno @10:00 Ooh, now I gotta check that out, thanks ultra
	10:03pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Mr Fab @10:01 Oh nice! Yay! Howdy Fab!
	10:03pm northguineahills: ↳ Mr Fab @10:01 and i unexpectantly got an interview for monday (i thought it wouldn't be until wednesday)
	10:06pm ironybread: if y'all want a free copy of this album please help yerselves taylorjessen.blogspot.com...
	10:06pm Mr Fab: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:02 Franco! that was probably Shirley Temples daughter. For real!
	🥁 10:06pm WR: ↳ Song: "Cultural F.M." by "The Second City" LOL, that's it. just LOL. Thanks ironybread.
	10:07pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Mr Fab @10:06 As a matter of fact it was.
	10:07pm Uncle Michael: Now the thunder.
	10:07pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Mr Fab @10:06 Yeah. No lie. Lori 'Lorax' Black was a Melvin for about three years.
	10:08pm Uncle Michael: ↳ ironybread @10:06 Del Close, but no cigar.
	10:08pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:07 She still gets royalties for their Kurt Cobain 'produced' album and didn't play a note on it.
	10:08pm Mr Fab: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:07 I like how she didn't idenitify herself as the daughter of America's Sweetheart, but as a Melvin.
	10:08pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @10:08 Yep. Del doesn't appear on this album. Pre-Del maybe?
	10:10pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Mr Fab @10:08 Chresti probably has more to say about her than me.
	10:12pm ultradamno: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:08 Good work if you can get it
	10:15pm Mr Fab: I was looking at a book about Del Close, and it only dedicated one paragraph - one frikken paragraph! - to the "How To Speak Hip" album. That's how they treated one of the greatest records ever recorded? Feh.
	10:15pm ironybread: gosh, I don't understand, I still have my own personal copy of this LP, I just held it in my hands 30 seconds ago, I am so confused #SecondCity
	10:15pm Dean: Who's Del?
	10:16pm ultradamno: A funky homosapien, as I understand it.
	10:16pm Mr Fab: ↳ Dean @10:15 founder of Second City
	10:16pm Dean: Farmerinda?
	10:16pm Dean: Oh, okay.
	10:18pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ironybread @10:15 Maybe this copy is from 10 years in the future. Quick! Print your name in bold all caps in blue marker!
	10:18pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Lecture on Eighth Avenue" by "V-Effect" One of the few bands that could have recorded more for my liking
	10:18pm Uncle Michael: Rain on the roof.
	10:18pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:18 and check your phone. Future me sent past you a message.
	10:19pm ironybread: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:18 Currently grabbing a Sharpie and writing "THE BREAD IS IRONIC" in every available margin
	10:20pm Uncle Michael: I think it's petering out.
	10:20pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ironybread @10:19 that should do.
	10:22pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @10:20 Hope so!
	10:22pm coelacanth∅: greetings Rich and former lungers
	10:22pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:22 Hey, coel! How's the weather where you're at?
	10:22pm northguineahills: ↳ ironybread @10:19 are you pan ferruous?
	10:23pm coelacanth∅: recording this song off wfmu in the early 80s i thought for years it was a band called "viafect"
	10:26pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:22 it's warm and would-be pleasant... the slight smokiness makes it slightly oppressive, as if it were more humid than it is
	10:26pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:23 I love tape discoveries/rediscoveries like that. I've had this loooong list in my head of mystery songs from radio tapes which have been solved one-by-one, thanks in no small part hearing them again on WFMU.
	10:28pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:26 i envy you, i really never listened to the radio until wfmu (online), and even then the playlists were posted the next day (late 90s) until they were live.
	10:28pm northguineahills: at home, i listened to my records. in the car, my mix tapes...
	10:28pm coelacanth∅: i thought euthanasia was a band from japan with some wordplay, "youth in asia"! i was disappointed when i found out it's just "euthanasia.
	10:30pm Rich in Washington: ↳ northguineahills @10:28 I taped hours and hours of late night radio as a teenager. There were some insane DJs doing mindblowing (to me anyway) radio on my local community station.
	10:30pm northguineahills: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:28 there is a uk punk band called 'youth in asia".
	10:30pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:26 i still have some from the early 80s, mostly from wfmu's Pat Duncan. when he went off the schedule i planned to contact him but procrastinated for years. i wouldn't bother him about it now.
	🥁 10:30pm Aitch: ↳ northguineahills @10:30 It's killer
	10:31pm coelacanth∅: ↳ northguineahills @10:30 hahaha, really?! so i was right? there must be another band "euthanasia" too
	10:31pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:30 difficulty: the two indie/college stations that could be picked up nearby were sold to clear channel in when i was 16/17 respectively. nothing else but pirate radio to be discovered in uni later...
	10:32pm northguineahills: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:31 that too!
	10:32pm coelacanth∅: (i could easily have imagined that a uk band was from japan, based on that name)
	10:36pm ironybread: Mm, yellow & black album cover art, just like Palmer Rockey
	10:36pm ironybread: or Negativland's "Points"
	10:37pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ironybread @10:36 There there, Mrs... RECTANGULAR
	10:37pm ironybread: ?dnim ym gnisol I mA
	10:37pm coelacanth∅: ...according to spotify there're at least 4 bands called youth in asia and at least 8 bands called euthanasa. i predict some time wasted doing research in the near future. (including finding the song(s) on my cassettes)
	10:38pm coelacanth∅: (i)
	10:40pm northguineahills: ↳ ironybread @10:37 tu mente al reves, por pavor...
	10:41pm ultradamno: There's a Youth In Asia (9) so it must be than that. I remember the Milwaukee one www.discogs.com...
	10:42pm ultradamno: The Wisconsin band www.discogs.com...
	10:43pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Responsible" by "Mofungo" wfmu's dj mofungo massacre amused...
	🥁 10:44pm Zipperhead7: Howdy folks -- just back from working with the guys at Wallkill Correctional. When you leave the prison and hit the road, it really torques your mind in a good way.
	10:46pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Zipperhead7 @10:44 Hi Zip!
	10:46pm coelacanth∅: hey Zipperhead! i almost moved to an apartment near the wallkill prison. i'm Thankful that fell through!
	🥁 10:47pm Zipperhead7: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:46 Some lovely countryside up there
	10:48pm ultradamno: Mofungo and the Bill Laswell band Massacre would have collaborated well together (may the metal band Massacre not so much, but would have fit MM's aesthetic better)
	10:48pm northguineahills: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:46 hit me about your room. I might be moving north sooner then later (username [at] gmail)
	10:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:48 Agreed. They really remind me of each other.
	10:50pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Roughage" by "The State" not to be confused w/...ne'ermind...
	10:58pm Mr Fab: Hope Uncle Michael is ok. Anyone remember when Hurricane-to-Superstorm Sandy attacked the WFMU building? Knocked out the transmitters, and I think the alt streams too. This is why I fear hurricane season, even tho I live on the other side of the continent.
	11:01pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Mr Fab @10:58 We just have fire to contend with on the left coast.
	🥁 11:02pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Mr Fab @10:58 I remember that indeed. Hope UM is ok too
	11:02pm Rich in Washington: Yeah. He seemed to indicate that it was petering off but....
	11:03pm northguineahills: ↳ Mr Fab @10:58 don't worry, i was in brooklyn then (water came w/in 6 blocks), and I've actually endured two hurricanes last year (got flooded by one). One of infinite+11 reasons I'm leaving fl...
	11:05pm Erik-O-Vert (VT): I freakin loved the 1st The Scene is Now Lp - comparatively imo, the follow-ups were letdowns.
	11:06pm Ike: Meow meow meow
	11:08pm Rich in Washington: Ike! Erik!
	11:09pm northguineahills: LOW-ee--SAI-EE-da (lowereast side en espanol)...
	🥁 11:12pm Zipperhead7: ↳ northguineahills @11:09 I've always wondered how to pronounce that. Thanks ngh!
	11:13pm Rich in Washington: ↳ northguineahills @11:09 Thanks. I knew I mangled it. I've never heard it pronounced.
	🥁 11:14pm Kat in the chat: I haven't heard that word since the 90s sometime
	🥁 11:15pm Kat in the chat: haha there it is
	11:16pm Linda Lee: wow... fantastic show. thanks so much, my dear.
	11:18pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Linda Lee @11:16 Hi Linda Lee! It's been a while!
	🥁 11:18pm Kat in the chat: Linda Lee!!! It HAS been a long time! How are you?
	11:19pm Linda Lee: sure has! i'm back from Mexico & so glad to hear good radio.
	11:19pm ironybread: hiiiiiiiiiiiike
	11:19pm ironybread: hi Fab
	11:19pm Linda Lee: hey Kat! so glad to be home.
	11:20pm Linda Lee: you?
	11:20pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Linda Lee @11:19 So cool to see you here!
	11:20pm Linda Lee: it was the sound of loisaida..
	11:21pm Linda Lee: so great rocking out again to these bands.
	🥁 11:21pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Linda Lee @11:20 I'm good! I'm not Kat in Chicago anymore. I moved to Philadelphia two months ago.
	11:21pm Linda Lee: how do you like it?
	11:22pm StringOFperils: Great! I was wondering what this new AFC would sound like...it is many years later..
	11:22pm StringOFperils: AHC...hell, AFrican Head Charge....can't even handle an acronym properly
	11:23pm Linda Lee: marvelous!!!
	🥁 11:23pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Linda Lee @11:21 I like it a lot so far! It's great to see you round these parts again.
	11:24pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Theme From Sisters" by "MX-80 Sound" They do a good Halloween too...and Checkmate
	11:24pm Linda Lee: so great to hear it!
	11:25pm Mr Fab: Well as I live in breathe, Linda Lee! Where in Mexico were you? My wife and I pretty much handle all our medical stuff in Tijuana now.
	🥁 11:25pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Microdosing" by "African Head Charge" excellent track right there
	11:28pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Zipperhead7 @10:47 Zip, yes it's beautiful there. i weighed out travel to/from work and the fact that the apartment was upstairs from the landlord, and said no. but i also think there's an energetic aspect to consider; and a prison must have some negative vibes goin' on!
	11:29pm Linda Lee: i was on the southern coast, in puerto escondido. a surf town. pretty far from TJ!
	11:30pm Linda Lee: good for you for utilizing the care available in TJ. muy bueno!
	11:32pm Linda Lee: i'm heading offline for a while now, but i'll be back! so great sering you.
	11:32pm coelacanth∅: hey Linda Lee good to see ya!
	🥁 11:32pm Kat in the chat: Hope to see you again soon, LL!
	11:33pm Linda Lee: good seeing you, coel! i'll be back. much love.
	11:35pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Linda Lee @11:32 See you, LL! Wonderful to see/read you again!
	🥁 11:35pm Zipperhead7: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:28 Living above the landlord sounds like a recipe for disaster
	11:36pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Side One [excerpt]" by "Forrest McCullough" bought a very scratchy and warped copy at a thrift shop in Branson last month surprisingly it's not as depressing as "45 minute long sermon on death" would usually entail
	11:36pm coelacanth∅: i have this flight final track on a marathon premium Ken Freedman made in the 90s "happy listener's guide to mind control"
	🥁 11:38pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Song: "In Flagrante Delicto" by "S.P.K." i sense the nearness of Baphomet in this track
	11:38pm Rich in Washington: ↳ pot8o @11:36 I keep finding copies of this and end up giving them away.
	🥁 11:38pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:38 shhh! they're gonna make me kiss the goat again :(
	11:39pm pot8o: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:38 always thought it was super rare, usually churchy stuff tends to stay fairly local
	11:40pm Rich in Washington: ↳ pot8o @11:39 For some reason I find that one a lot. I should do something creative with multiple copies of it.
	🥁 11:40pm Kat in the chat: wtf is this
	11:40pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:35 i guess for some it's good: in exchange for being quiet and obedient repairs might be made more expediently... but i prefer to live with a few compromises and a landlord that stays out of my way
	11:41pm Rich in Washington: ↳ pot8o @11:39 Yeah. Little Marcy and Merrill Womach records are super common up here.
	🥁 11:41pm Zipperhead7: Does that mean Jesus is a Blood, since he wears red?
	11:43pm Erik-O-Vert: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:30 @Rich: I forget, where were those radio stations located/re fun taping radio daze. Circa 90’s?
	🥁 11:44pm Kat in the chat: WHAT IS SHE TALKING ABOUT
	🥁 11:45pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Song: "How Can I Tell My Guru?" by "Kali Bahlu" I'm impressed by the scholarly research that went into this. But was it peer-reviewed?
	11:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Erik-O-Vert @11:43 For me, it was KBOO in Portland OR in the 80s.
	11:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:44 She would be a Tik Tok influencer today.
	11:45pm pot8o: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:41 over here it's Tennessee Ernie Ford and a lot of private press stuff
	11:46pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:44 i think she's making it up as she goes along, but i'll join her church for the entertainment value
	11:47pm Erik-O-Vert: ↳ Mr Fab @10:15 @Fab: is that Del Close: “Hip Speak” album easy to find these days in various formats?
	🥁 11:47pm Zipperhead7: I wonder if Kali Bahlu is related to Wally Ballew
	11:48pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:47 LOL!
	11:48pm coelacanth∅: i'm not sure one should trust someone named Kali though!
	11:52pm ultradamno: Real name Kalassu Wintergate, also member of Litestorm www.discogs.com... 33 1/3 www.discogs.com...
	11:53pm ironybread: ↳ Erik-O-Vert @11:47 Here ya go footnoteconspiracy.com...
	11:53pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @11:52 She also recorded a weird little 7" called Lonely Teardrops before cutting Cosmic Remembrance - which is included on this reissue.
	11:55pm ironybread: Also www.footnoteconspiracy.com...
	🥁 11:56pm WR: ↳ Song: "How Can I Tell My Guru?" by "Kali Bahlu" So curious to me that the original was released on World Pacific, did they think it went along with all the Ravi Shankar albums?
	11:56pm ironybread: And www.footnoteconspiracy.com...
	🥁 11:56pm WR: ↳ ironybread @11:56 Gee thanks again ironybread.
	🥁 11:56pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Song: "She Don't Wanna Talk About It" by "SQÜRL" I can totally see Lee Hazelwood and Nancy Sinatra doing this
	11:59pm Rich in Washington: Thanks for being here, everybody! Hope you dug the show.
	🥁 11:59pm Kat in the chat: Not the Lonely Teardrops I was expecting!
	🥁 11:59pm Kat in the chat: Thanks Rich! Most enjoyable.

The Radio Is Broken with Rich In Washington: Playlist from June 30, 2023

View Rich in Washington's profile

The Radio Is Broken is a three-hour spelunk through the canyons and fissures of humanity's collective unconscious. It sounds as if a field recording of the Culture Industry were a sonic juggernaut barreling down a rickety track—except that tunnel ahead is just painted onto a sheer cliff wall. With occasional forays into what might pass for "normal" music. Prerequisite journey: Cratedigger's Lung

	9:03pm pot8o: hi everyone!
	🥁 9:03pm Aitch: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:01 This one better for cheaper, happy times, only 5 blocks away, but considerably less industrial. There's even some grass

	🥁 9:04pm WR: I haven't listened to radio in years.
	🥁 9:04pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:03 LOL
	9:04pm Rich in Washington: KAT! WR!
	9:05pm Rich in Washington: Whoa. Did you hear a dropout?
	🥁 9:05pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Aitch @9:03 Yay grass and better for cheaper

	9:05pm spodiodi: hi Rich, and Broken peeps!
	9:06pm Rich in Washington: ↳ spodiodi @9:05 Spodi!
	🥁 9:07pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "The Three Billy-Goats Gruff" by "Bob Thomas" Here's a kiddie tale I'd totally forgotten the plot of.
	9:08pm StringOFperils: Pretty crowded under that bridge these days.
	🥁 9:09pm Kat in the chat: ↳ StringOFperils @9:08 yep, lotta trolls out there
	9:09pm spodiodi: i'm on the trolls' side! to heck with goats
	9:10pm TDK60: Hi Rich.
	9:11pm Rich in Washington: ↳ TDK60 @9:10 Hi TDK!
	🥁 9:12pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Sharkey's Day" by "Laurie Anderson" This one has been in my head a lot since I moved to Phlly and I don't know why
	🥁 9:12pm Kat in the chat: Maybe it's the "nobody knows me, nobody knows my name"
	9:13pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:12 Yeah! That makes sense!
	🥁 9:13pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:13 There's so much freedom associated with that
	9:14pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:13 It's funny how songs earworm like that.
	9:15pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:13 There are songs I've added to my playlist for reasons like that since I've uprooted myself.
	🥁 9:15pm Kat in the chat: I need a radio show again so I can foist my earworms on the listening public (all four or five of them)
	🥁 9:16pm Kat in the chat: (five listeners, not earworms)
	9:16pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:15 Yes. Free the earworms!
	9:16pm Rich in Washington: It's like Cronenberg's Shivers.
	🥁 9:17pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:16 yikes :)
	9:18pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Sharkey's Day" by "Laurie Anderson" I recall listening to this Laurie then and diggin' the sound (still do) but I realize I've never followed the lyrics/story.
	9:18pm ultradamno: We're under a smoke air quality advisory and these people start in with the military grade fireworks. MX-80!!!!
	🥁 9:19pm Kat in the chat: My new fun phone game is comparing the AQIs of the four cities in my weather favorites (Philly, NYC, Montreal, Chicago)
	9:20pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @9:18 Ugh. Sorry! That was us for the last couple of years. In fact, one of the worst fires in the Columbia Gorge was cause by some fool tossing fireworks into a wooded canyon.
	9:20pm Rich in Washington: and the one near my old home that made us evacuate last year was caused by buffoons and fireworks
	9:21pm spodiodi: nomeansno!
	9:21pm spodiodi: ↳ Song: "Everyday I Start To Ooze" by "NoMeansNo" joy!
	🥁 9:22pm Kat in the chat: People are so fucking stupid about fireworks
	9:22pm spodiodi: you could have put a period after stupid
	🥁 9:23pm Kat in the chat: ↳ spodiodi @9:22 true
	9:23pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:22 It's infantile and very dangerous. This is the driest June/July that I can recall. I am not looking forward to the 4th and the time around it where dum dums are lighting shit off.
	9:24pm TDK60: ↳ ultradamno @9:18 ultradamno: Where are you? NYC here. Fireworks here have already started. Loud and late amid very smoky air. I'm hoping this summer is not as horrid as 2020 was: month & a half of loud explosions (and the fixed exhaust cars roaring too). I'm bracing myself for lost sleep...
	9:24pm spodiodi: it's never stopped here in sf and farther south
	9:24pm ultradamno: ↳ TDK60 @9:24 East Central Indiana (just south of Muncie)
	9:24pm TDK60: Hey, I wasn't looking and thought this sounded like NoMeansNo! Saw 'em once.
	9:25pm Uncle Michael: I'm not sure I need a "seek shelter" storm right now.
	9:26pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:25 Aw crap! Really? Stay safe!
	🥁 9:26pm WR: I get various transit alerts in case I decided to ever leave my lair. Get ones like this a few times a week "NWK-WTC resuming normal service. The earlier incident with a disruptive passenger has been resolved at NWK. We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused." The same impersonal message each time. Even though this week we have not had those Blade Runner orange skies recently, for some reason today I imagine the worse regarding what actually happened and the resolution
	9:27pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:26 Yep, really.
	9:27pm ultradamno: We had that earlier this week, though the tornado struck pretty far from here..
	9:28pm spodiodi: ↳ Song: "Heave Ho" by "Cows" cunning stunt bonus -- a common award in "Carmageddon" :D
	🥁 9:28pm WR: ↳ Song: "Heave Ho" by "Cows" Entertained by their classic bluenote records album cover styling.
	9:28pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:27 Tornado?
	9:29pm Uncle Michael: Nah, just 80 mph straight line winds.
	9:29pm ultradamno: Pretty impressive footage though weather.com...
	9:29pm spodiodi: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:29 woof
	9:30pm Uncle Michael: Fellas, it's been good to know ya.
	9:30pm Uncle Michael: The front is about 30 minutes away.
	9:31pm TDK60: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:30 UM, Good luck if it helps.
	9:31pm Uncle Michael: ↳ TDK60 @9:31 Thanks.
	9:33pm ironybread: Yes indeed, Rich, if I had a copy of "The Three Billy-Goats Gruff" right now I'd spend the next three hours restoring it. #CantStopMyself
	9:34pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:30 Crud! Seriously! Stay safe!
	🥁 9:34pm WR: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:30 Interior wall closet, if possible, if you can, but you know all that and the problem is your limited agility.
	9:34pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ironybread @9:33 Well, look no further! I've got records with your name on them!
	9:35pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:31 Are you standing by for evacuation orders or something?
	9:35pm chresti: Hi Rich and radio breakers!
	9:36pm Rich in Washington: ↳ chresti @9:35 It's chresti!
	9:36pm ironybread: Here's Gregory Jacobsen folks www.gregoryjacobsen.com
	9:36pm Uncle Michael: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:35 If we hear sirens well go to the storm shelter.
	9:37pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ironybread @9:36 His WFMU radio shows were a thing of beauty, too.
	9:37pm chresti: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:36 Yikes!
	9:38pm ironybread: Jesus fuck Uncle Michael, out of curiosity what's your zip code #TotalWeatherDanger
	9:38pm Uncle Michael: I'm too hopped up on goofballs to panic.
	9:38pm Uncle Michael: 66049
	9:40pm Dean: I wish I were hopped up. I've never like Melvins.
	9:40pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:38 reminds me of when we evacuated because of a nearby wildfire and my brain was still fizzing from my medical adventure and all the drugs. Dang! I hope everything will be OK!
	🥁 9:40pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:38 I hope so too!
	9:40pm Dean: ^liked
	9:41pm ironybread: Uncle Michael, can you hide under the surface of Clinton Lake
	9:42pm pot8o: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:25 stay safe out there!
	9:42pm Uncle Michael: ↳ ironybread @9:41 Uhhhhhh....
	9:46pm Dean: (Same for KG&tLW. Sorry!)
	9:47pm Rich in Washington: ↳ pot8o @9:42 Hi pot8o!
	9:47pm northguineahills: b/c i'm so exciting, I've been at a cafe talking to a friend on the phone about chatGPT plugins for GIS for my ConEd interview Monday while an Orange 9mm meets screamocore band plays inside (i knew eventually, i'd find something, 'interesting' around here, once allowed to wander...)
	9:48pm Dean: All of this goes to why I embrace WFMU. I learn not only about new musics that I adore, but also about those that I don't appreciate.
	9:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Dean @9:48 We're an equal opportunity deployer
	9:49pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @9:48 how long do you have?
	9:50pm northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @9:49 yes, that was an existential question as well
	9:50pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Motor Spirit" by "King Gizzard And The Lizard Wiz... I'm not yet sure if KGTLW is my cup of armageddon tea but they do appear to be peppy musickers.
	9:50pm Uncle Michael: Wind has begun gusting.
	9:50pm Franco Twinkie: Hey ho, Rich and extra helpings!
	9:51pm Rich in Washington: Franco! Ahoy!
	9:51pm Dean: @ngh, you mean to live? I dunno, but it could be any day, any year.
	9:51pm Rich in Washington: did someone say 'more Melvins'?
	9:51pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @9:51 how long do you have to learn about music that you don't appreciate...(tongue in cheek, i was)
	9:51pm Dean: Wasn't me!
	9:52pm northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @9:51 and it can be mirrored back at me...
	🥁 9:54pm Kat in the chat: Not a massive Melvins fan myself, but I must say I'm enjoying these TG covers.
	9:57pm Uncle Michael: First raindrops, mebbe.
	9:58pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:57 Dang. We should put you on the air for live coverage.
	9:58pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:58 don't make him mike cantore!
	9:58pm Uncle Michael: I can totally Jim Cantori this.
	9:59pm northguineahills: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:58 err jim (his brother is also a meteorologist)
	10:00pm ultradamno: Speaking of MX-80, are you familiar with Chinaboise? (pre-MX-80 Rich Stim with some assist from MX-80 members Bruce Anderson and Dale Sophia) seems like they would be a good fit for this show www.discogs.com... they also appear on this comp www.discogs.com...
	10:00pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:00 I've heard of them but I don't think I've ever HEARD them.
	10:01pm Mr Fab: 4 day weekeeeeeend! Sorry, Rich. I get a little excited about these things sometimes.
	10:02pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:54 I was at a beach party and this gothish person shows up and looks totally out of place. I asked someone who she was. " A Melvin." She didn't stay long.
	10:02pm chresti: ↳ Uncle Michael @9:38 A good time to be on goofballs
	10:02pm ironybread: ↳ ultradamno @10:00 Ooh, now I gotta check that out, thanks ultra
	10:03pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Mr Fab @10:01 Oh nice! Yay! Howdy Fab!
	10:03pm northguineahills: ↳ Mr Fab @10:01 and i unexpectantly got an interview for monday (i thought it wouldn't be until wednesday)
	10:06pm ironybread: if y'all want a free copy of this album please help yerselves taylorjessen.blogspot.com...
	10:06pm Mr Fab: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:02 Franco! that was probably Shirley Temples daughter. For real!
	🥁 10:06pm WR: ↳ Song: "Cultural F.M." by "The Second City" LOL, that's it. just LOL. Thanks ironybread.
	10:07pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Mr Fab @10:06 As a matter of fact it was.
	10:07pm Uncle Michael: Now the thunder.
	10:07pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Mr Fab @10:06 Yeah. No lie. Lori 'Lorax' Black was a Melvin for about three years.
	10:08pm Uncle Michael: ↳ ironybread @10:06 Del Close, but no cigar.
	10:08pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:07 She still gets royalties for their Kurt Cobain 'produced' album and didn't play a note on it.
	10:08pm Mr Fab: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:07 I like how she didn't idenitify herself as the daughter of America's Sweetheart, but as a Melvin.
	10:08pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @10:08 Yep. Del doesn't appear on this album. Pre-Del maybe?
	10:10pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Mr Fab @10:08 Chresti probably has more to say about her than me.
	10:12pm ultradamno: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:08 Good work if you can get it
	10:15pm Mr Fab: I was looking at a book about Del Close, and it only dedicated one paragraph - one frikken paragraph! - to the "How To Speak Hip" album. That's how they treated one of the greatest records ever recorded? Feh.
	10:15pm ironybread: gosh, I don't understand, I still have my own personal copy of this LP, I just held it in my hands 30 seconds ago, I am so confused #SecondCity
	10:15pm Dean: Who's Del?
	10:16pm ultradamno: A funky homosapien, as I understand it.
	10:16pm Mr Fab: ↳ Dean @10:15 founder of Second City
	10:16pm Dean: Farmerinda?
	10:16pm Dean: Oh, okay.
	10:18pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ironybread @10:15 Maybe this copy is from 10 years in the future. Quick! Print your name in bold all caps in blue marker!
	10:18pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Lecture on Eighth Avenue" by "V-Effect" One of the few bands that could have recorded more for my liking
	10:18pm Uncle Michael: Rain on the roof.
	10:18pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:18 and check your phone. Future me sent past you a message.
	10:19pm ironybread: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:18 Currently grabbing a Sharpie and writing "THE BREAD IS IRONIC" in every available margin
	10:20pm Uncle Michael: I think it's petering out.
	10:20pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ironybread @10:19 that should do.
	10:22pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Uncle Michael @10:20 Hope so!
	10:22pm coelacanth∅: greetings Rich and former lungers
	10:22pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:22 Hey, coel! How's the weather where you're at?
	10:22pm northguineahills: ↳ ironybread @10:19 are you pan ferruous?
	10:23pm coelacanth∅: recording this song off wfmu in the early 80s i thought for years it was a band called "viafect"
	10:26pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:22 it's warm and would-be pleasant... the slight smokiness makes it slightly oppressive, as if it were more humid than it is
	10:26pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:23 I love tape discoveries/rediscoveries like that. I've had this loooong list in my head of mystery songs from radio tapes which have been solved one-by-one, thanks in no small part hearing them again on WFMU.
	10:28pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:26 i envy you, i really never listened to the radio until wfmu (online), and even then the playlists were posted the next day (late 90s) until they were live.
	10:28pm northguineahills: at home, i listened to my records. in the car, my mix tapes...
	10:28pm coelacanth∅: i thought euthanasia was a band from japan with some wordplay, "youth in asia"! i was disappointed when i found out it's just "euthanasia.
	10:30pm Rich in Washington: ↳ northguineahills @10:28 I taped hours and hours of late night radio as a teenager. There were some insane DJs doing mindblowing (to me anyway) radio on my local community station.
	10:30pm northguineahills: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:28 there is a uk punk band called 'youth in asia".
	10:30pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:26 i still have some from the early 80s, mostly from wfmu's Pat Duncan. when he went off the schedule i planned to contact him but procrastinated for years. i wouldn't bother him about it now.
	🥁 10:30pm Aitch: ↳ northguineahills @10:30 It's killer
	10:31pm coelacanth∅: ↳ northguineahills @10:30 hahaha, really?! so i was right? there must be another band "euthanasia" too
	10:31pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:30 difficulty: the two indie/college stations that could be picked up nearby were sold to clear channel in when i was 16/17 respectively. nothing else but pirate radio to be discovered in uni later...
	10:32pm northguineahills: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:31 that too!
	10:32pm coelacanth∅: (i could easily have imagined that a uk band was from japan, based on that name)
	10:36pm ironybread: Mm, yellow & black album cover art, just like Palmer Rockey
	10:36pm ironybread: or Negativland's "Points"
	10:37pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ironybread @10:36 There there, Mrs... RECTANGULAR
	10:37pm ironybread: ?dnim ym gnisol I mA
	10:37pm coelacanth∅: ...according to spotify there're at least 4 bands called youth in asia and at least 8 bands called euthanasa. i predict some time wasted doing research in the near future. (including finding the song(s) on my cassettes)
	10:38pm coelacanth∅: (i)
	10:40pm northguineahills: ↳ ironybread @10:37 tu mente al reves, por pavor...
	10:41pm ultradamno: There's a Youth In Asia (9) so it must be than that. I remember the Milwaukee one www.discogs.com...
	10:42pm ultradamno: The Wisconsin band www.discogs.com...
	10:43pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Responsible" by "Mofungo" wfmu's dj mofungo massacre amused...
	🥁 10:44pm Zipperhead7: Howdy folks -- just back from working with the guys at Wallkill Correctional. When you leave the prison and hit the road, it really torques your mind in a good way.
	10:46pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Zipperhead7 @10:44 Hi Zip!
	10:46pm coelacanth∅: hey Zipperhead! i almost moved to an apartment near the wallkill prison. i'm Thankful that fell through!
	🥁 10:47pm Zipperhead7: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:46 Some lovely countryside up there
	10:48pm ultradamno: Mofungo and the Bill Laswell band Massacre would have collaborated well together (may the metal band Massacre not so much, but would have fit MM's aesthetic better)
	10:48pm northguineahills: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:46 hit me about your room. I might be moving north sooner then later (username [at] gmail)
	10:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:48 Agreed. They really remind me of each other.
	10:50pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Roughage" by "The State" not to be confused w/...ne'ermind...
	10:58pm Mr Fab: Hope Uncle Michael is ok. Anyone remember when Hurricane-to-Superstorm Sandy attacked the WFMU building? Knocked out the transmitters, and I think the alt streams too. This is why I fear hurricane season, even tho I live on the other side of the continent.
	11:01pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Mr Fab @10:58 We just have fire to contend with on the left coast.
	🥁 11:02pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Mr Fab @10:58 I remember that indeed. Hope UM is ok too
	11:02pm Rich in Washington: Yeah. He seemed to indicate that it was petering off but....
	11:03pm northguineahills: ↳ Mr Fab @10:58 don't worry, i was in brooklyn then (water came w/in 6 blocks), and I've actually endured two hurricanes last year (got flooded by one). One of infinite+11 reasons I'm leaving fl...
	11:05pm Erik-O-Vert (VT): I freakin loved the 1st The Scene is Now Lp - comparatively imo, the follow-ups were letdowns.
	11:06pm Ike: Meow meow meow
	11:08pm Rich in Washington: Ike! Erik!
	11:09pm northguineahills: LOW-ee--SAI-EE-da (lowereast side en espanol)...
	🥁 11:12pm Zipperhead7: ↳ northguineahills @11:09 I've always wondered how to pronounce that. Thanks ngh!
	11:13pm Rich in Washington: ↳ northguineahills @11:09 Thanks. I knew I mangled it. I've never heard it pronounced.
	🥁 11:14pm Kat in the chat: I haven't heard that word since the 90s sometime
	🥁 11:15pm Kat in the chat: haha there it is
	11:16pm Linda Lee: wow... fantastic show. thanks so much, my dear.
	11:18pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Linda Lee @11:16 Hi Linda Lee! It's been a while!
	🥁 11:18pm Kat in the chat: Linda Lee!!! It HAS been a long time! How are you?
	11:19pm Linda Lee: sure has! i'm back from Mexico & so glad to hear good radio.
	11:19pm ironybread: hiiiiiiiiiiiike
	11:19pm ironybread: hi Fab
	11:19pm Linda Lee: hey Kat! so glad to be home.
	11:20pm Linda Lee: you?
	11:20pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Linda Lee @11:19 So cool to see you here!
	11:20pm Linda Lee: it was the sound of loisaida..
	11:21pm Linda Lee: so great rocking out again to these bands.
	🥁 11:21pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Linda Lee @11:20 I'm good! I'm not Kat in Chicago anymore. I moved to Philadelphia two months ago.
	11:21pm Linda Lee: how do you like it?
	11:22pm StringOFperils: Great! I was wondering what this new AFC would sound like...it is many years later..
	11:22pm StringOFperils: AHC...hell, AFrican Head Charge....can't even handle an acronym properly
	11:23pm Linda Lee: marvelous!!!
	🥁 11:23pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Linda Lee @11:21 I like it a lot so far! It's great to see you round these parts again.
	11:24pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Theme From Sisters" by "MX-80 Sound" They do a good Halloween too...and Checkmate
	11:24pm Linda Lee: so great to hear it!
	11:25pm Mr Fab: Well as I live in breathe, Linda Lee! Where in Mexico were you? My wife and I pretty much handle all our medical stuff in Tijuana now.
	🥁 11:25pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Microdosing" by "African Head Charge" excellent track right there
	11:28pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Zipperhead7 @10:47 Zip, yes it's beautiful there. i weighed out travel to/from work and the fact that the apartment was upstairs from the landlord, and said no. but i also think there's an energetic aspect to consider; and a prison must have some negative vibes goin' on!
	11:29pm Linda Lee: i was on the southern coast, in puerto escondido. a surf town. pretty far from TJ!
	11:30pm Linda Lee: good for you for utilizing the care available in TJ. muy bueno!
	11:32pm Linda Lee: i'm heading offline for a while now, but i'll be back! so great sering you.
	11:32pm coelacanth∅: hey Linda Lee good to see ya!
	🥁 11:32pm Kat in the chat: Hope to see you again soon, LL!
	11:33pm Linda Lee: good seeing you, coel! i'll be back. much love.
	11:35pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Linda Lee @11:32 See you, LL! Wonderful to see/read you again!
	🥁 11:35pm Zipperhead7: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:28 Living above the landlord sounds like a recipe for disaster
	11:36pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Side One [excerpt]" by "Forrest McCullough" bought a very scratchy and warped copy at a thrift shop in Branson last month surprisingly it's not as depressing as "45 minute long sermon on death" would usually entail
	11:36pm coelacanth∅: i have this flight final track on a marathon premium Ken Freedman made in the 90s "happy listener's guide to mind control"
	🥁 11:38pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Song: "In Flagrante Delicto" by "S.P.K." i sense the nearness of Baphomet in this track
	11:38pm Rich in Washington: ↳ pot8o @11:36 I keep finding copies of this and end up giving them away.
	🥁 11:38pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:38 shhh! they're gonna make me kiss the goat again :(
	11:39pm pot8o: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:38 always thought it was super rare, usually churchy stuff tends to stay fairly local
	11:40pm Rich in Washington: ↳ pot8o @11:39 For some reason I find that one a lot. I should do something creative with multiple copies of it.
	🥁 11:40pm Kat in the chat: wtf is this
	11:40pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:35 i guess for some it's good: in exchange for being quiet and obedient repairs might be made more expediently... but i prefer to live with a few compromises and a landlord that stays out of my way
	11:41pm Rich in Washington: ↳ pot8o @11:39 Yeah. Little Marcy and Merrill Womach records are super common up here.
	🥁 11:41pm Zipperhead7: Does that mean Jesus is a Blood, since he wears red?
	11:43pm Erik-O-Vert: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:30 @Rich: I forget, where were those radio stations located/re fun taping radio daze. Circa 90’s?
	🥁 11:44pm Kat in the chat: WHAT IS SHE TALKING ABOUT
	🥁 11:45pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Song: "How Can I Tell My Guru?" by "Kali Bahlu" I'm impressed by the scholarly research that went into this. But was it peer-reviewed?
	11:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Erik-O-Vert @11:43 For me, it was KBOO in Portland OR in the 80s.
	11:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:44 She would be a Tik Tok influencer today.
	11:45pm pot8o: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:41 over here it's Tennessee Ernie Ford and a lot of private press stuff
	11:46pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:44 i think she's making it up as she goes along, but i'll join her church for the entertainment value
	11:47pm Erik-O-Vert: ↳ Mr Fab @10:15 @Fab: is that Del Close: “Hip Speak” album easy to find these days in various formats?
	🥁 11:47pm Zipperhead7: I wonder if Kali Bahlu is related to Wally Ballew
	11:48pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Zipperhead7 @11:47 LOL!
	11:48pm coelacanth∅: i'm not sure one should trust someone named Kali though!
	11:52pm ultradamno: Real name Kalassu Wintergate, also member of Litestorm www.discogs.com... 33 1/3 www.discogs.com...
	11:53pm ironybread: ↳ Erik-O-Vert @11:47 Here ya go footnoteconspiracy.com...
	11:53pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @11:52 She also recorded a weird little 7" called Lonely Teardrops before cutting Cosmic Remembrance - which is included on this reissue.
	11:55pm ironybread: Also www.footnoteconspiracy.com...
	🥁 11:56pm WR: ↳ Song: "How Can I Tell My Guru?" by "Kali Bahlu" So curious to me that the original was released on World Pacific, did they think it went along with all the Ravi Shankar albums?
	11:56pm ironybread: And www.footnoteconspiracy.com...
	🥁 11:56pm WR: ↳ ironybread @11:56 Gee thanks again ironybread.
	🥁 11:56pm Zipperhead7: ↳ Song: "She Don't Wanna Talk About It" by "SQÜRL" I can totally see Lee Hazelwood and Nancy Sinatra doing this
	11:59pm Rich in Washington: Thanks for being here, everybody! Hope you dug the show.
	🥁 11:59pm Kat in the chat: Not the Lonely Teardrops I was expecting!
	🥁 11:59pm Kat in the chat: Thanks Rich! Most enjoyable.
	11:59pm pot8o: thanks rich! have a great week everyone!
	12:00am ironybread: Thanks again Rich!
	12:00am spodiodi: thanks Rich! dug what i caught in between cleaning and errands
