	1:44pm Krys O.: Who's Peggy?
	1:44pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @1:44 is she a nazi?

	👻 1:59pm fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @1:54 It's very weird. I was in a dentist office, he was running late and I ended up leafing through a TV mag that somehow mentioned WFMU. I wrote that down, first show was Terre T, changed my life
	2:01pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @1:59 no i didn't ... i wasn't there full time but had friends there and visited multiple times, the longest visit was two months
	2:02pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @1:59 that's a great story, and appropriate you should find it in a quirky fashion
	2:03pm Pence: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:02 lol
	2:04pm Krys O.: Hey, Pence. I was remiss in my welcome message to you.
	2:05pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi again, Krys. Hello, coasters!
	2:06pm Krys O.: Howdy, Ken!
	👻 2:07pm fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:02 Reading a TV magazine when I didn't even have a TV. I'd consider believing in Fates, like obnoxious persons pushing me in some direction
	2:09pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @2:07 u huh
	👻 2:13pm WR: Hi Krys, listening while on errands. Haven't heard this FST recording before.
	2:13pm Krys O.: ↳ WR @2:13 Hi, WR! It's a box set of some rarities that came out in the 90s.
	2:22pm tom tom the pipers son: this is probably the most i've listened to firesign, i like the dark undercurrent, but i'd say it's a product of it's time in some respects like when they refer to other countries or cultures, they exude a sense of american exceptionalism, even though they undercut it, and a basking in the glow of post ww2 america success, before vietnam seeped into america's consciousness
	2:27pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:22 They have always satirized that exceptionalism. It was done on the sly as to not be labeled as subversive early on.
	2:30pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:22 The best collection of FST is Dear Friends. I listened to it a lot as a kid and bits were aired on WLIR in the 70s.
	2:31pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:22 yes, like i said they undercut it, but they also have a sort of confidence about their place in the world as amercans, that i can't imagine a comedy group having today
	2:31pm Barno in Akron: How do you do, fellow kids?
	2:31pm Krys O.: Hi, Barno!
	2:32pm Barno in Akron: Howdy, Krys!
	2:33pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:31 Are you going by the confidence of the ludicrous characters?
	2:34pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Krys O. @2:33 no, more like something in the point of view behind it
	2:35pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:34 but that too
	2:37pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:34 Phillip Proctor said, "We each independently created our own material and characters and brought them together, not knowing what the others were going to pull. And it was all based on put-ons; that is, we were assuming characters that were assumed to be real by the listeners. No matter how far out we would carry a premise, if we were tied to the phones we discovered the audience would go far ahead of us. We could be as outrageous as we wanted to be and they believed us—which was astonishingly funny and interesting and terrifying to us, because it showed the power of the medium and the gullibility and vulnerability of most people."
	2:42pm Krys O.: Bing's character on the show is Bing Collins.
	2:42pm tom tom the pipers son: thx, right like coyle and sharpe, and that's when media was new that it was terrifying, now we're both fully aware of it's power and exploitation and just as gullible for some reason
	2:48pm tom tom the pipers son: i think what i'm trying to say about firesign is not a criticism but just trying to point out a belief in rationalism and the enlightenment behind it, which seem a little out of reach now, or maybe not, i'm not so sure
	2:49pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:48 enlightenment through satire
	2:51pm tom tom the pipers son: thanks krys...have a nice afternoon /weekend...
	2:52pm Krys O.: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:51 Thanks! You too!
	👻 2:54pm WR: ↳ Song: "Moonlighting Becomes You (episode)" by "Bing Cros... This is amazing!
	2:55pm Krys O.: ↳ WR @2:54 I didn't know this series existed before last week.
	2:56pm Jim Price: Hooray Krys!
	2:56pm Krys O.: Thanks everyone! xxxooo
	2:57pm Krys O.: ↳ Jim Price @2:56 !!!!
