	10:44am JaydiumCrass: ↳ Song: "lowdown" by "boz scaggs" Dr. Jeff is going NUTS right now!!

	10:46am Jim the Poet: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @10:39 That scarf put the deal over the top
	10:46am maurer: ↳ Song: "lowdown" by "boz scaggs" thanks dj trouble for the funky morning grooves...
	10:47am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Song: "lowdown" by "boz scaggs" Third kind of people, the people who think "Lowdown" is a WIRE song from Pink Flag
	10:48am jan: Trouble: such a joyful noise!
	10:48am Farmer Tom: Trouble killin' em this morning! Eating funky-berries fresh from the vine
	10:49am The Hip Replacement: Lowdown. Inspired composition. Inspired performacne.
	10:49am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "lowdown" by "boz scaggs" I guess I've never given this song a lot of thought, but I have to stand on the pro👍 side.
	10:49am paul b: "Lido missed the boat that day, he left the shack But that was all he missed, and he ain't comin' back"
	10:49am McGroovey: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:47 I've never experienced that confusion, actually. Other things confuse me, though.
	10:50am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ Paulo AD @10:43 LOL. It's true. There's even an article mentioning them: www.starobserver.com.au... The weird thing is there is a bit of tension between the leagues because mine got accused of homophobia a few years ago.
	10:51am Triple G: ↳ paul b @10:49 Shoutout to Lido Restaurant in Hackensack, NJ -- great pub pie🍕
	10:54am lazy pierogi: question for the techies: for the stream, does FMU pay per click, or the amount of time streamed? for instance, if i put the stream on and leave the room for a while, would it save a few shekels by turning it off first?
	10:55am Pablo: You've inspired Swag for Life moves over my way. Big Love Trouble and FMU!
	10:55am Handy Haversack: ↳ lazy pierogi @10:54 This seems like an excellent question to ask Ken on Sunday during the State of the Station Q&A.
	10:56am Handy Haversack: Way to go, Pablo!
	10:56am lazy pierogi: good idea, HH. i will do that.
	10:57am Pablo: Fudge Yes! I lucky!
	10:57am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "all i do is think of you" by "betty davis" This album is awesome! What a prize! Go for it, Troubled people!
	10:58am Bobby: Back to work for me. See you around comments board people!
	11:00am Charles in Chicago: ↳ lazy pierogi @10:54 microshekels
	11:02am Jim the Poet: ↳ Bobby @10:58 peace out
	11:03am McGroovey: ↳ lazy pierogi @10:54 My guess is that WFMU pays for actual digital bandwidth used, which is why when I'm traveling listening to the stream, once I get within a WFMU/WMFU signal area, I turn off the stream and turn on the radio
	11:04am maurer: ↳ Song: "all i do is think of you" by "betty davis" donated! I want the new betty davis album! marty and trouble bringing the funky grooves...
	11:05am Charles in Chicago: ↳ McGroovey @11:03 ". “It’s so much more expensive to pay for bandwidth than, you know… The costs of operating an FM transmitter are minute compared to everything we spend for streaming, and we buy bandwidth in bulk. Now, we just buy huge, huge contracts of bandwidth. So, we’re only paying, I don’t know, we’re paying $5 or $10 a meg of throughput because we buy so much of it.” - Ken Freedman www.radiosurvivor.com...
	11:05am lazy pierogi: @Charles & McGroovey I figured it would be negligible, but even incremental expenses add up over time!
	11:06am Zip7: I'm sorry to report that Houston's Art Car Museum is closing permanently on April 24. If you live in Texas or the surrounding area, check it out while you can. Definitely worth the trip!
	11:08am Charles in Chicago: ↳ lazy pierogi @11:05 Indeed, don't waste bandwidth and electricity! But also I was just trying to get a realistic idea of what streaming costs ... not easy to get an exact number (I'm not sure what that "meg of throughput" actually refers to)
	11:10am oshiwoshi: ↳ Song: "pussy cat" by "sylvia" oh mee-YOW
	11:10am Triple G: ↳ Zip7 @11:06 That's a bummer, will try to pay it a visit (my wife and her family are from HTX ... I've seen some of the cars on display at a brewery)
	11:10am steph: I hope this doesn't awaken anything in me
	11:10am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:08 "meg of throughput" can't mean megabyte per listner, because at 128kbps, a megabyte is a minute, and WFMU is not spending $5/minute/listener. So I'm assuming that means aggregate output, to all the streaming listeners
	11:11am Jim the Poet: ↳ steph @11:10 This is a bad animals favorite
	11:12am Andrea C: who's got 64$?!?!
	11:13am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:10 now WFMU claims 300,000 listeners per month. Suppose 10% of those are listening at a given time. If that's the case, we have to divide the $5/minute by 30,000 to find the per-listener cost. It comes out to 0.01 cent per minute. So if you turn off the stream for a few hours you may save a few cents.
	11:13am Mark: I love Boz Scaggs! Have you heard "I'll Be Long Gone"?.. Thanks for your wonderful show! I became a Swag For Life member yesterday!
	11:14am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:13 Would love to know if this analysis is anything close to correct. I'll ask Ken on Sunday.
	11:15am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Mark @11:13 Welcome to the club, Mark!
	11:17am Handy Haversack: Seen Joe Bataan twice now, all thanks to Trouble.
	11:18am lazy pierogi: cool, thanks for the analysis, Charles!
	11:18am Charles in Chicago: ↳ lazy pierogi @11:18 please take with a giant grain of NaCl!
	11:20am morphe': Thanks Trouble and all
	11:22am Handy Haversack: Because we are dumb, provincial NYers, it took us FOREVER to realize how close WFMU actually is. I mean, it would have helped if the PATH labeled its stops. How am I supposed to know that Exchange Place is in Jersey City? In our brains, all of New Jersey was as far away as New Brunswick, where K8 had worked years ago. Now we know better. I am not saying we're smarter. But we know better.
	11:24am Toothgrinder Tom: @Handy all that’s separating you is the Hudson River/Estuary.
	11:24am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:22 web.archive.org... I'm sure you've seen this but you reminded me of it
	11:24am Toothgrinder Tom: Separating ‘us’
	11:25am Handy Haversack: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:24 Yeah. Sadly accurate sometimes.
	11:28am jakee.jc: Jersey City welcomes the curious-minded NYers, Handy! Come and hang out with us, enjoy our cultural delights, and support our heritage institutions like WFMU :)
	11:28am gwtg: I lost out on a job opportunity MidTown because they thought Jersey City was far away. There are other outer borough stops that are farther away time wise but if that is where I said I lived i would have been hired.
	11:29am Peter in SEA: Bonjour Trouble and Listeners, Thank you TROUBLE for bringin' the tunes, the art, the activism! Here's to a successful Marathon for all!!!
	11:29am Handy Haversack: ↳ jakee.jc @11:28 I was there last night, even! And will be there tomorrow night! Now that I know, they can't get rid of me!
	11:32am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:29 Did you know in Jersey City delis, it's customary for them to not cut the sandwich all the way through?
	11:32am Marty o: Trouble! I’ve been following your show for over ten years and now my 3 year old listens too. He wants to ask you why you’re named Trouble and also if you have any toys at your house?!
	11:33am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Heyo. Loving the set, gotta get off soon though as I have something like 3 or 4 hours of Zoom meetings today. Bleh!
	11:34am Handy Haversack: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:32 What a country!
	11:35am jakee.jc: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:32 going to look out for this next time I visit Andrea Salumeria
	11:36am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:34 I know, right? And inflammable means flammable!
	11:36am Todd-a-o: Bummer, just tried to donate with Apple Pay. Refused.
	11:37am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: I had a gig RIGHT NEAR Monty Hall but because my schedule sucked so bad I never got to visit. Finally got there when I saw Big Blood the last time they played there; hope to come back soon!
	11:37am unpopularfred: ↳ Song: "girls it ain't easy" by "dusty springfield" glad to hear the rest of this song. so good
	11:38am Triple G: ↳ Todd-a-o @11:36 Apple Pay confounds me at times too. Could try Venmo or PayPal (I've donated using the latter before, should go smoothly).
	11:38am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @11:37 Who's going to see Hearty White at Monty Hall tomorrow? I'll be there.
	11:38am jakee.jc: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @11:37 that Big Blood show was so great! someone at Monty Hall that night gifted another person a lighter stuck in a cement cube and called it a "heavier"
	11:38am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ unpopularfred @11:37 Honey Cone's cover is in Marty's rotation.
	11:39am Triple G: ↳ jakee.jc @11:38 Incredible!
	11:40am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:38 The original, that should say.
	11:40am riceandbeansandsoysauce: Amen, Trouble!
	11:42am Handy Haversack: Charles and I are locked in steely-eyed competition for that Africa Airways record!
	11:42am Vivian: ↳ jakee.jc @11:38 I saw Big Blood too! Came into town for unfun family stuff, timing worked out where I saw them at Monty Hall.
	11:42am maurer: don't cross trouble on the mean streets of jersey city!
	11:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:42 And yield gracefully to Mick!
	11:43am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:42 Congrats Mick! I have enough records already, tbh. Even a few of the "Africa Airways" series (vols 1 and 2)
	11:44am Marty McSorley: so close to the goal! only 15 min to go. lets get Trouble to 10K!
	11:44am Mick: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:43 Woo hoo! I mean, ummm, everybody just stay cool. I'm happy to share
	11:45am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Mick @11:44 Looks like they are up to Vol 6.... I've got to check these out, v1 and v2 were so good
	11:46am Handy Haversack: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:45 I have vol. 6. Pretty sure I won it during Marathon.
	11:50am Will thee Sound Guy: Let's bump Trouble over 10K Soo many facets to pledge for...

	11:54am Handy Haversack: I took a phone pledge from someone in Boonton last night, and they 100 percent approved of my pronunciation. I was very proud.
	11:54am Robm: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:22 handy what makes me angry is people who just watch cable news, it gets me is that they don’t care to listen to international broadcasting, well it’s their lost
	11:55am unpopularfred: ↳ Song: "to sir with love" by "dawn penn" this show has certainly sold me on Trouble's premium

	10:11am Jason from Houston: Heyyyyyyy there.
	10:11am Spikey BXL: ↳ B R M @10:11 Cheers - last round was mission impossible and they knocked out Eintracht Frankfurt, so who knows. Also, it's at my childhood fave ground, being an Anderlecht supporter.

	10:22am B R M: I live for Marty's read of the URL. I LIVE FOR IT!
	10:23am Zip7: That GCS track had so much stank I nearly ran my car into a telephone pole
	10:23am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ stevej @10:21 LOL. I made a mess off one of my branches and need to make a new one and get the good bits from my fouled up branch.
	10:23am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ Robm @10:21 The humidty of Sydney in summer is almost as bad as the cockroaches it brings.
	10:24am yippie: i like the kizaki ondo record from EM
	10:25am Handy Haversack: ↳ Zip7 @10:23 The stakes have never been higher!
	10:25am Robm: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @10:23 sounds like florida where i used to live spat, it would get hot in the summer here
	10:25am Jim the Poet: What? I'm not getting paid? Get my agent on the phone! I don't have an agent????
	10:26am Handy Haversack: Marty's metadata game is top-notch.
	10:26am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ Jim the Poet @10:25 It could be worse. You could have had Dakota Johnson's ex-agent.
	10:27am Jim the Poet: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @10:26 I auditioned for Madame Web! I wasn't webby enough
	10:27am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Jim the Poet @10:25 That would be a good TV drama series: Frank Richards, Agent to the Poets.
	10:27am Jim the Poet: Marty's right, the Cardinals suck
	10:28am Handy Haversack: ↳ Jim the Poet @10:27 Facts
	10:28am robotbrian: Omg I got a shout out 🥰 I am Ashley 😅
	10:29am James: ↳ Jim the Poet @10:27 😐

	10:30am Robm: @Trouble you and your coworker have my condolences about being a redsox and a yankee fan

	10:35am Toothgrinder Tom: @Spikey oh we have to have something called Paramount Plus to watch that. Maybe I’ll do a free trial as I am starved for eurofootie over here.
	10:35am Ken From Hyde Park: The USA/Canada women's soccer match last night had it all: splashing in the rain, dramatic goals, thrilling penaltiy kicks. 🥅
	10:36am Toothgrinder Tom: @James some people refer to them as the Baltimore Orioles
	10:37am James: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @10:36 NEVER
	10:37am rx "rexy" scabin: I don't get sport.
	10:37am Handy Haversack: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @10:35 Nice! I have a friend here in NYC who does that. I just registered our softball team, the Pigeons, for its twenty-third season.
	10:38am Paulo AD: ↳ Spikey BXL @10:31 Hiyyaaa bud, how's your day been?
	10:39am Greg from ZONE 5: Is there any truth to the rumor that WFMU has signed Shohei Ohtani?
	10:39am Marty McSorley: $20 or more pledge gets you in the running to win this Jazz is Dead CD!
	10:40am Handy Haversack: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @10:39 Call it "truth-adjacent."
	10:41am JaydiumCrass: Hiya Trouble and beautiful FMU co-conspirators!!
	10:41am Bobby: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @10:39 The Final Premium
	10:41am Spikey BXL: ↳ Paulo AD @10:38 Alright, and the working part is just about OVER. So i'll be listening but less (or not) on the accu. cheers
	10:42am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ Handy Haversack @10:37 I always find it cool when a team choose a less aggressive animal mascot One of my former team mates played in a women's only league and in a team called the Tempe Tapeworms.
	10:42am unpopularfred: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @10:39 we'd have to quadruple the marathon goal to afford him
	10:43am Paulo AD: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @10:42 This cannot be true hahaha
	10:44am JaydiumCrass: ↳ Song: "lowdown" by "boz scaggs" Dr. Jeff is going NUTS right now!!
	10:45am unpopularfred: ↳ Song: "lowdown" by "boz scaggs" I somehow never really noticed the deuling hi-hats on this song before
	10:46am Jim the Poet: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @10:39 That scarf put the deal over the top
	10:46am maurer: ↳ Song: "lowdown" by "boz scaggs" thanks dj trouble for the funky morning grooves...
	10:47am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Song: "lowdown" by "boz scaggs" Third kind of people, the people who think "Lowdown" is a WIRE song from Pink Flag
	10:48am jan: Trouble: such a joyful noise!
	10:48am Farmer Tom: Trouble killin' em this morning! Eating funky-berries fresh from the vine
	10:49am The Hip Replacement: Lowdown. Inspired composition. Inspired performacne.
	10:49am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "lowdown" by "boz scaggs" I guess I've never given this song a lot of thought, but I have to stand on the pro👍 side.
	10:49am paul b: "Lido missed the boat that day, he left the shack But that was all he missed, and he ain't comin' back"
	10:49am McGroovey: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:47 I've never experienced that confusion, actually. Other things confuse me, though.
	10:50am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ Paulo AD @10:43 LOL. It's true. There's even an article mentioning them: www.starobserver.com.au... The weird thing is there is a bit of tension between the leagues because mine got accused of homophobia a few years ago.
	10:51am Triple G: ↳ paul b @10:49 Shoutout to Lido Restaurant in Hackensack, NJ -- great pub pie🍕
	10:54am lazy pierogi: question for the techies: for the stream, does FMU pay per click, or the amount of time streamed? for instance, if i put the stream on and leave the room for a while, would it save a few shekels by turning it off first?
	10:55am Pablo: You've inspired Swag for Life moves over my way. Big Love Trouble and FMU!
	10:55am Handy Haversack: ↳ lazy pierogi @10:54 This seems like an excellent question to ask Ken on Sunday during the State of the Station Q&A.
	10:56am Handy Haversack: Way to go, Pablo!
	10:56am lazy pierogi: good idea, HH. i will do that.
	10:57am Pablo: Fudge Yes! I lucky!
	10:57am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "all i do is think of you" by "betty davis" This album is awesome! What a prize! Go for it, Troubled people!
	10:58am Bobby: Back to work for me. See you around comments board people!
	11:00am Charles in Chicago: ↳ lazy pierogi @10:54 microshekels
	11:02am Jim the Poet: ↳ Bobby @10:58 peace out
	11:03am McGroovey: ↳ lazy pierogi @10:54 My guess is that WFMU pays for actual digital bandwidth used, which is why when I'm traveling listening to the stream, once I get within a WFMU/WMFU signal area, I turn off the stream and turn on the radio
	11:04am maurer: ↳ Song: "all i do is think of you" by "betty davis" donated! I want the new betty davis album! marty and trouble bringing the funky grooves...
	11:05am Charles in Chicago: ↳ McGroovey @11:03 ". “It’s so much more expensive to pay for bandwidth than, you know… The costs of operating an FM transmitter are minute compared to everything we spend for streaming, and we buy bandwidth in bulk. Now, we just buy huge, huge contracts of bandwidth. So, we’re only paying, I don’t know, we’re paying $5 or $10 a meg of throughput because we buy so much of it.” - Ken Freedman www.radiosurvivor.com...
	11:05am lazy pierogi: @Charles & McGroovey I figured it would be negligible, but even incremental expenses add up over time!
	11:06am Zip7: I'm sorry to report that Houston's Art Car Museum is closing permanently on April 24. If you live in Texas or the surrounding area, check it out while you can. Definitely worth the trip!
	11:08am Charles in Chicago: ↳ lazy pierogi @11:05 Indeed, don't waste bandwidth and electricity! But also I was just trying to get a realistic idea of what streaming costs ... not easy to get an exact number (I'm not sure what that "meg of throughput" actually refers to)
	11:10am oshiwoshi: ↳ Song: "pussy cat" by "sylvia" oh mee-YOW
	11:10am Triple G: ↳ Zip7 @11:06 That's a bummer, will try to pay it a visit (my wife and her family are from HTX ... I've seen some of the cars on display at a brewery)
	11:10am steph: I hope this doesn't awaken anything in me
	11:10am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:08 "meg of throughput" can't mean megabyte per listner, because at 128kbps, a megabyte is a minute, and WFMU is not spending $5/minute/listener. So I'm assuming that means aggregate output, to all the streaming listeners
	11:11am Jim the Poet: ↳ steph @11:10 This is a bad animals favorite
	11:12am Andrea C: who's got 64$?!?!
	11:13am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:10 now WFMU claims 300,000 listeners per month. Suppose 10% of those are listening at a given time. If that's the case, we have to divide the $5/minute by 30,000 to find the per-listener cost. It comes out to 0.01 cent per minute. So if you turn off the stream for a few hours you may save a few cents.
	11:13am Mark: I love Boz Scaggs! Have you heard "I'll Be Long Gone"?.. Thanks for your wonderful show! I became a Swag For Life member yesterday!
	11:14am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:13 Would love to know if this analysis is anything close to correct. I'll ask Ken on Sunday.
	11:15am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Mark @11:13 Welcome to the club, Mark!
	11:17am Handy Haversack: Seen Joe Bataan twice now, all thanks to Trouble.
	11:18am lazy pierogi: cool, thanks for the analysis, Charles!
	11:18am Charles in Chicago: ↳ lazy pierogi @11:18 please take with a giant grain of NaCl!
	11:20am morphe': Thanks Trouble and all
	11:22am Handy Haversack: Because we are dumb, provincial NYers, it took us FOREVER to realize how close WFMU actually is. I mean, it would have helped if the PATH labeled its stops. How am I supposed to know that Exchange Place is in Jersey City? In our brains, all of New Jersey was as far away as New Brunswick, where K8 had worked years ago. Now we know better. I am not saying we're smarter. But we know better.
	11:24am Toothgrinder Tom: @Handy all that’s separating you is the Hudson River/Estuary.
	11:24am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:22 web.archive.org... I'm sure you've seen this but you reminded me of it
	11:24am Toothgrinder Tom: Separating ‘us’
	11:25am Handy Haversack: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:24 Yeah. Sadly accurate sometimes.
	11:28am jakee.jc: Jersey City welcomes the curious-minded NYers, Handy! Come and hang out with us, enjoy our cultural delights, and support our heritage institutions like WFMU :)
	11:28am gwtg: I lost out on a job opportunity MidTown because they thought Jersey City was far away. There are other outer borough stops that are farther away time wise but if that is where I said I lived i would have been hired.
	11:29am Peter in SEA: Bonjour Trouble and Listeners, Thank you TROUBLE for bringin' the tunes, the art, the activism! Here's to a successful Marathon for all!!!
	11:29am Handy Haversack: ↳ jakee.jc @11:28 I was there last night, even! And will be there tomorrow night! Now that I know, they can't get rid of me!
	11:32am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:29 Did you know in Jersey City delis, it's customary for them to not cut the sandwich all the way through?
	11:32am Marty o: Trouble! I’ve been following your show for over ten years and now my 3 year old listens too. He wants to ask you why you’re named Trouble and also if you have any toys at your house?!
	11:33am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Heyo. Loving the set, gotta get off soon though as I have something like 3 or 4 hours of Zoom meetings today. Bleh!
	11:34am Handy Haversack: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:32 What a country!
	11:35am jakee.jc: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:32 going to look out for this next time I visit Andrea Salumeria
	11:36am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:34 I know, right? And inflammable means flammable!
	11:36am Todd-a-o: Bummer, just tried to donate with Apple Pay. Refused.
	11:37am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: I had a gig RIGHT NEAR Monty Hall but because my schedule sucked so bad I never got to visit. Finally got there when I saw Big Blood the last time they played there; hope to come back soon!
	11:37am unpopularfred: ↳ Song: "girls it ain't easy" by "dusty springfield" glad to hear the rest of this song. so good
	11:38am Triple G: ↳ Todd-a-o @11:36 Apple Pay confounds me at times too. Could try Venmo or PayPal (I've donated using the latter before, should go smoothly).
	11:38am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @11:37 Who's going to see Hearty White at Monty Hall tomorrow? I'll be there.
	11:38am jakee.jc: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @11:37 that Big Blood show was so great! someone at Monty Hall that night gifted another person a lighter stuck in a cement cube and called it a "heavier"
	11:38am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ unpopularfred @11:37 Honey Cone's cover is in Marty's rotation.
	11:39am Triple G: ↳ jakee.jc @11:38 Incredible!
	11:40am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:38 The original, that should say.
	11:40am riceandbeansandsoysauce: Amen, Trouble!
	11:42am Handy Haversack: Charles and I are locked in steely-eyed competition for that Africa Airways record!
	11:42am Vivian: ↳ jakee.jc @11:38 I saw Big Blood too! Came into town for unfun family stuff, timing worked out where I saw them at Monty Hall.
	11:42am maurer: don't cross trouble on the mean streets of jersey city!
	11:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:42 And yield gracefully to Mick!
	11:43am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:42 Congrats Mick! I have enough records already, tbh. Even a few of the "Africa Airways" series (vols 1 and 2)
	11:44am Marty McSorley: so close to the goal! only 15 min to go. lets get Trouble to 10K!
	11:44am Mick: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:43 Woo hoo! I mean, ummm, everybody just stay cool. I'm happy to share
	11:45am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Mick @11:44 Looks like they are up to Vol 6.... I've got to check these out, v1 and v2 were so good
	11:46am Handy Haversack: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:45 I have vol. 6. Pretty sure I won it during Marathon.
