	🎸 ♥ 10:08pm univac: Austin, glad you're feeling better, or at least up to doing the radio show!
	🎸 ♥ 10:09pm univac: I'll have to listen to the archive. What I heard of your interview with Watt was excellent.
	🎸 ♥ 10:10pm Austin Rich: I'm locked out of the stream. I don't know what's happening.
	🎸 ♥ 10:11pm Austin Rich: It says I'm connected, but I'm hearing something else.
	♥ 10:12pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:11 Orchestral Intermission Music
	🎸 ♥ 10:12pm Kat in the chat: yeah we're hearing the Sheena stream :(
	10:13pm Mr. X: The Deep State doesn't think we should be hearing what Mike Watt has to say.
	🎸 ♥ 10:13pm Austin Rich: I'm sorry everyone.
	♥ 10:14pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:13 You don't need to apologize. Its the gremlins fault, not yours.
	🎸 ♥ 10:14pm Austin Rich: I don't know what to do. Sheena's completely kicked me off.
	🎸 ♥ 10:15pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:13 It's the beauty and agony of live radio. No apologies are needed at all! These things happen.
	10:15pm Mr. X: Did you try reconfiguring the argle-bargle?
	♥ 10:15pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: At least they played Timothy
	🎸 ♥ 10:16pm univac: Did you make Sheena angry again?
	10:17pm Mr. X: I just watched an episode of Sheena of the Jungle the other day. It was terrible. But I had no idea who Sheena was until then.
	🎸 ♥ 10:19pm Aitch: We'll get there eventually
	🎸 ♥ 10:20pm univac: It's weird Austin--periodically the stream pauses as if you are cutting in, but then continues the bot.
	🎸 ♥ 10:20pm Austin Rich: I'm locked out. I have no idea what's happening.
	♥ 10:21pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: What would happen if you pressed the button for the Improbability Drive?
	🎸 ♥ 10:21pm Heather Z: ↳ Mr. X @10:17 I remember George of The Jungle, kind of. Mostly the Watch out for that tree part. Austin, I'm hearing what Univac said, too.
	🎸 ♥ 10:21pm univac: Bummer. Sorry. I guess it is way too late on East Coast for anyone to manually fiddle what needs to be fiddled...
	10:22pm laurapanic: Doris Day at least
	♥ 10:22pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:20 In all seriouness, have you tried clearing your cache and logging back in?
	10:22pm laurapanic: poor Austin, this would be a bit stressful.
	♥ 10:22pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ univac @10:21 Its 10:22 over here
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm univac: Maybe shut down your modem for 5 minutes and see if you get a new IP from your provider. And restart your streaming machine.
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm univac: Whoa! Back!
	10:23pm Mr. X: There we go!
	♥ 10:23pm drowsy: AYYY
	10:23pm laurapanic: back on now
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm Heather Z: They're back!!!!
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Heather Z @10:21 as i remember the best part of the george of the jungle cartoon was during the opening theme song when he hit the tree
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm Kat in the chat: yep!
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm univac: Yay!
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm Austin Rich: Sorry about that.
	♥ 10:24pm drowsy: I think that AI what was getting poked at came for revenge, but your robot and Mike Rogers' fought them off.
	🎸 ♥ 10:24pm Heather Z: ↳ laurapanic @10:22 You're so right. I think I'd be crying and swearing and sweating hard.
	🎸 ♥ 10:24pm univac: No worries! The gerbils running the scenes must have taken a smoke break.
	🎸 ♥ 10:24pm coelacanth∅: shit happens
	♥ 10:24pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Don't tell me you actually pushed the Improbability Drive button!
	🎸 ♥ 10:25pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:23 No apologies needed! So glad you're back! Technology will technology... we all know how it goes.
	🎸 ♥ 10:26pm Heather Z: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:23 I'm as sure as I can be you're right and that's why the theme is about all I remember of the show!
	🎸 ♥ 10:26pm univac: Must have been the Improbability Drive Button, definitely.

Mid-Valley Mutations with Austin Rich: Playlist from October 10, 2023

View austinrich's profile

A combination of collage, new experimental records and other bits and bobs, Mid-Valley Mutations is a tour through the mind of Austin Rich, who has been broadcasting in some form since 1998. Heavily influenced by Dr Demento, Don Joyce and old fashioned College Radio, Austin creates Audio Essays on a variety of subjects, and even just plays records, from time to time. Sometimes Live music and Interviews will grace the program, helping create a situation where you don't really know what you're going to hear, when you tune in. What you need to know is when you enter the Mid-Valley region, be prepared for the Musical Mutations... in whatever form they take.

Tuesday 9 - 11pm (EDT) | On WFMU's Sheena's Jungle Room

	🎸 ♥ 10:02pm WR: ↳ WR @9:56 one thing about that Watt tour link is that he is blogging from the road, has some description or each gig.
	10:04pm ramencity: Eric Dolphy is the man. (But not The Man.)
	10:04pm univac: Hey there. Great show Austin!
	🎸 ♥ 10:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ univac @10:04 univac! Thanks for joining us!

	10:06pm Mr. X: Oh dear.
	🎸 ♥ 10:06pm Austin Rich: Whoops! Sorry for that.
	10:06pm ramencity: I think Ferrante and Teicher took over your feed
	♥ 10:07pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: That was odd
	🎸 ♥ 10:07pm Austin Rich: Sorry about that! I'll having trouble connecting.
	♥ 10:08pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: And this moment of silence is brought to you by Big Time Television
	🎸 ♥ 10:08pm univac: Austin, glad you're feeling better, or at least up to doing the radio show!
	🎸 ♥ 10:09pm univac: I'll have to listen to the archive. What I heard of your interview with Watt was excellent.
	🎸 ♥ 10:10pm Austin Rich: I'm locked out of the stream. I don't know what's happening.
	🎸 ♥ 10:11pm Austin Rich: It says I'm connected, but I'm hearing something else.
	♥ 10:12pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:11 Orchestral Intermission Music
	🎸 ♥ 10:12pm Kat in the chat: yeah we're hearing the Sheena stream :(
	10:13pm Mr. X: The Deep State doesn't think we should be hearing what Mike Watt has to say.
	🎸 ♥ 10:13pm Austin Rich: I'm sorry everyone.
	♥ 10:14pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:13 You don't need to apologize. Its the gremlins fault, not yours.
	🎸 ♥ 10:14pm Austin Rich: I don't know what to do. Sheena's completely kicked me off.
	🎸 ♥ 10:15pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:13 It's the beauty and agony of live radio. No apologies are needed at all! These things happen.
	10:15pm Mr. X: Did you try reconfiguring the argle-bargle?
	♥ 10:15pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: At least they played Timothy
	🎸 ♥ 10:16pm univac: Did you make Sheena angry again?
	10:17pm Mr. X: I just watched an episode of Sheena of the Jungle the other day. It was terrible. But I had no idea who Sheena was until then.
	🎸 ♥ 10:19pm Aitch: We'll get there eventually
	🎸 ♥ 10:20pm univac: It's weird Austin--periodically the stream pauses as if you are cutting in, but then continues the bot.
	🎸 ♥ 10:20pm Austin Rich: I'm locked out. I have no idea what's happening.
	♥ 10:21pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: What would happen if you pressed the button for the Improbability Drive?
	🎸 ♥ 10:21pm Heather Z: ↳ Mr. X @10:17 I remember George of The Jungle, kind of. Mostly the Watch out for that tree part. Austin, I'm hearing what Univac said, too.
	🎸 ♥ 10:21pm univac: Bummer. Sorry. I guess it is way too late on East Coast for anyone to manually fiddle what needs to be fiddled...
	10:22pm laurapanic: Doris Day at least
	♥ 10:22pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:20 In all seriouness, have you tried clearing your cache and logging back in?
	10:22pm laurapanic: poor Austin, this would be a bit stressful.
	♥ 10:22pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ univac @10:21 Its 10:22 over here
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm univac: Maybe shut down your modem for 5 minutes and see if you get a new IP from your provider. And restart your streaming machine.
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm univac: Whoa! Back!
	10:23pm Mr. X: There we go!
	♥ 10:23pm drowsy: AYYY
	10:23pm laurapanic: back on now
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm Heather Z: They're back!!!!
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Heather Z @10:21 as i remember the best part of the george of the jungle cartoon was during the opening theme song when he hit the tree
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm Kat in the chat: yep!
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm univac: Yay!
	🎸 ♥ 10:23pm Austin Rich: Sorry about that.
	♥ 10:24pm drowsy: I think that AI what was getting poked at came for revenge, but your robot and Mike Rogers' fought them off.
	🎸 ♥ 10:24pm Heather Z: ↳ laurapanic @10:22 You're so right. I think I'd be crying and swearing and sweating hard.
	🎸 ♥ 10:24pm univac: No worries! The gerbils running the scenes must have taken a smoke break.
	🎸 ♥ 10:24pm coelacanth∅: shit happens
	♥ 10:24pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Don't tell me you actually pushed the Improbability Drive button!
	🎸 ♥ 10:25pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:23 No apologies needed! So glad you're back! Technology will technology... we all know how it goes.
	🎸 ♥ 10:26pm Heather Z: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:23 I'm as sure as I can be you're right and that's why the theme is about all I remember of the show!
	🎸 ♥ 10:26pm univac: Must have been the Improbability Drive Button, definitely.
	10:26pm ramencity: ↳ univac @10:24 Gerbils on smoko? Leave em alone...
	🎸 ♥ 10:27pm Austin Rich: I will have a pristine copy of this show uploaded to the Sheena server tomorrow, so people can hear the complete interview.

	🎸 ♥ 10:52pm Austin Rich: "Save Seats."
	10:54pm Mr. X: I get the sense that D. Boone is still very much a part of Mr. Watt.
	🎸 ♥ 10:55pm Kat in the chat: Thank you, Austin! Take it easy, get better.
	10:56pm ramencity: I am - roasting zucchini and frying okra
