	8:07pm AnotherJon: Greetings Tonk Town
	8:08pm Countrydave: Checking in “from the north”
	8:08pm AnotherJon: Honestly a Codge-Becky combo is pretty premium
	8:10pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Song: "Echo Of The North" by "Doc Williams & Chickie Wil... That was really great. I love the lengthy A section. One can really roam around in there!
	8:13pm Becky: ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @8:10 Shoutout to my nabe!
	8:14pm Bri The Beatnik: ↳ Handy Haversack @8:03 Aww!
	8:14pm Listener Robert: Where are those 78s Codge spied in your stash?
	8:15pm Countrydave: Great to hear early Marty Robbins.
	👻 8:15pm DanFA: This sounds like it belongs on the soundtrack of a Coen Brothers movie.
	8:16pm The Butterman: Last night on Jeopardy, the answer was zydeco and some a-hole said honkey tonk. Duh!!!!
	8:16pm AnotherJon: ↳ Listener Robert @8:14 Its important to listen to all the tracks in a 78 mindset. That way you don't let a 78 slip past ya
	👻 8:17pm DanFA: ↳ The Butterman @8:16 Whatta idiot!
	8:18pm ultradamno: Some Jeopardy nerd who has never seen a band play behind chicken wire, I reckon.
	👻 8:20pm DanFA: ↳ ultradamno @8:18 Ideally, all bands should perform behind chicken wire irregardless of genre. Ya hear that Taylor Swift.
	8:20pm Liz: Listening on 90.1 live from the Delaware Valley!
	👻 8:20pm Deano de los Muertos: Wish i could summon the will to ever go back to Brooklyn or the city in general so i could attend one of these things
	👻 8:21pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @8:20 Hey, we're keeping the lights on for you, pal.
	8:21pm Listener Robert: ↳ AnotherJon @8:16 I think I'm the idiot for not realizing 78 rpm singles are 7". I haven't gotten out a turntable since I moved -- to the Delaware Valley, actually.
	8:22pm Becky: ↳ Listener Robert @8:21 I don't know what the Old Codger told you, but 78 RPM records are 10".
	8:23pm AnotherJon: ↳ Becky @8:22 don't tell the codge
	8:23pm Listener Robert: ↳ Becky @8:22 Is that the full diameter, or just the total width recorded on?
	8:23pm ultradamno: ↳ Becky @8:22 All I've ever known of...but could they not press a 7" at 78rpm? As a matter of physics?
	👻 8:24pm Handy Haversack: Our turntable has only 33 and 45 settings. 16s and 78s are denied us.
	8:26pm Ochre Ogre: Hey thar Becky!
	8:26pm Becky: ↳ Handy Haversack @8:24 You should get one that lets you add 33+45.
	8:26pm Becky: ↳ Ochre Ogre @8:26 Hey thar OO!
	👻 8:27pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Becky @8:26 But we got it from Fabio, so it does have massive street cred!
	8:28pm Becky: ↳ ultradamno @8:23 The record would have to be made of steel with giant grooves and probably be a minute long.
	8:29pm ultradamno: ↳ Becky @8:28 That does sound like the greatest Minutemen collectors item ever though
	👻 8:29pm Handy Haversack: ↳ ultradamno @8:29 Or a new comic book hero.
	👻 8:29pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Handy Haversack @8:21 Appreciated 🫡
	👻 8:31pm brycepunk1: Becky, I have missed your show so much. Work changed my schedule so now it's rare I get to listen, and that is sad. But I made it tonight, and that is good :)
	8:32pm ultradamno: Kind of reminds me of the Futurama line about the The Devil Went Down To Georgia ("Wouldn't a solid gold fiddle weigh hundreds of pounds and sound crummy?")
	8:33pm Becky: ↳ brycepunk1 @8:31 Aw,thanks Bryce! It's a gift to have you here.
	8:34pm Listener Robert: So wait, you're saying 7" is from edge to edge, INCLUDING THE LABEL?! All these years....
	8:35pm P-90: love this bed record
	👻 8:36pm Amygdala: ↳ Song: "Lady of Spain" by "Reno & Smiley" If there be a better banjo picker, I ain't heared 'em yet!
	8:38pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Listener Robert @8:34 And even the big empty space in the center.
	8:41pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Song: "A Hundred Proof Heartache" by "Loretta Lynn" When yer linin to Loretta yer lisnin to The Queen of country!
	👻 8:42pm Voof: I have a weakness for truck driving songs. :)
	👻 8:44pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Don't Call Me From A Honky Tonk" by "Johnny and J... I only accept calls from honky tonks. It's hard to screen for on a rotary, but it's worth it.
	8:46pm Listener Robert: ↳ Ochre Ogre @8:38 Which is HUGE in a 45. Anybody know another case where something's measured like that to include dead space? Even film and audio tape are measured in linear footage, not by the size of the reel itself.
	👻 8:49pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Becky and honkeroos!
	👻 8:51pm Handy Haversack: We have decided that when Radio the pup is snoring, WHICH HE DOES, we will call it "static." Nobler that way.
	👻 8:51pm Amygdala: ↳ Voof @8:42 I do too, glad to meet ya! This one’s been in rattling around in my grey matter for years, but I can’t seem to locate the name or the singer. I just remember a single verse. I'd be much obliged if you could tell me the song and singer… I’m loaded up with paint, And lots of paint thinner, I’m a gear-jammer buddy, I live on short-order dinner!
	8:53pm Listener Robert: Like in a car engine, what's measured is displacement, not the total volume of the cylinders including the dead space.
	👻 8:53pm Handy Haversack: Becky, many thanks for another great show! It's full of (clicky-)stars!
	👻 8:54pm Voof: ↳ Amygdala @8:51 I don't recognize that one, sorry. Maybe someone else does?
	8:56pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Ten Dollars And A Clean White Shirt" by "Charlie ... Braggart
	8:57pm Ochre Ogre: Thanks Becky!
	👻 8:57pm Handy Haversack: ↳ ultradamno @8:56 Remember when some pocket change and enough for a round of beer was enough to impress a jukebox?
	👻 8:59pm Amygdala: ↳ Voof @8:54 Thanks anyway Voof. I'll track it some day and will let you know when I do!
	8:59pm Listener Robert: Thanks everyone for opening my eyes to how phono records are measured. Suddenly I feel ripped off! ;-) Like diagonal measurement of TV screens.
	👻 8:59pm Deano de los Muertos: Thanks, Beckaroo
	👻 8:59pm Voof: ↳ Amygdala @8:59 Please do! I'll keep my ears peeled!
	👻 8:59pm Amygdala: Great show Becky - thank you!
	👻 9:00pm Handy Haversack: He's snoring with love, Becky!
	👻 9:00pm brycepunk1: Thank you :)
	👻 9:00pm Amygdala: ↳ Voof @8:59 Many thanks!
	9:02pm steveo: Great show, thanks, Becky!
	9:02pm AnotherJon: xoxo
