Listener comments!
	8:20pm ultradamno: Rich! Breakers! RIP Martin Mull...got Sex & Violins?
	8:50pm ultradamno: Also Kinky Friedman died yesterday. According to wiki he was the one and only artist to tape an Austin City Limits that they refused to air
	8:59pm ironybread: Currently watching classic 1960s Rock Hudson / Doris Day comedy "Make Room in the Oubliette". Hope Rich can find some selections from the soundtrack
	8:59pm pot8o: hi everyone!
	9:00pm Webhamster Henry: The GIF is broken!
	9:01pm tom tom the pipers son: hello rich and folks...
	9:01pm Rich in Washington: Hi everyone!
	🥁 9:01pm WR: Bezos Heh Heh hh Hed Headroom?
	🥁 9:02pm Wendy del Formaggio: Rich! I'm not sure if the radio is broken, but I know I am. This gal is exhausted.
	🥁 9:02pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "How Records Are Made Mix" by "Kill Ugly Radio" I like where this is going
	9:02pm Dean: Nice. The gif is an airing of last night's "debate."
	9:03pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Dean @9:02 lol
	9:05pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:02 oooo-ch, you may need a good pair of shoes for scooting round library
	9:06pm pot8o: ↳ Dean @9:02 total shitshow all around if that's the 2 candidates going into 2024, we're completely fucked to say the least
	9:06pm Rich in Washington: hi ultra! Hi ironybread! Hi pop8o! Hi Webhamster! Hi tom tom! Hi WR! Hi Wendy! (hope your cold is gone!) Hi Kat! Hi Dean! Hi Rich in Washington! Hi everyone!
	🥁 9:06pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:05 Thanks, tom tom. My shoes are fine. I'm still getting over this cold, so riding my bike to-and-from, then working for 8 hours, might be a bit much to ask even the best in modern footwear. My feet don't hurt. It's the rest of me.
	9:07pm Cp304: I wonder what made those tapes have that smell?
	🥁 9:07pm WR: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:02 Wendy! Did not know you were doing a fill in yesterday until seeing the drummer page as i was connecting to Explorer's room which was a Bronwyn fill in. Anyway, more WFMU stream listening deficit.
	🥁 9:08pm Wendy del Formaggio: Thanks, Rich! My cold lingers (stuffy sinuses, not as strong as I'd like to be), but I'm so much better. I had a very pleasant day at work.
	9:08pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:08 Oh! Your first day as a library person?
	🥁 9:09pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ WR @9:07 Hey WR! Yes, we missed you yesterday. But there's always the... ARCHIVES! Yay! www.wfmu.org...
	🥁 9:09pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:08 I don't remember the last time I said that about work :( glad yours is good and I hope you are 100% soon!
	9:09pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:06 yes i was half making a joke...but hope you feel better, that stuff'll all change soon enough...
	🥁 9:10pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:08 Nope, my third day. I only work there on Fridays and Saturdays. Today I catalogued some periodicals!
	9:10pm pot8o: was tuned into the mothership, to say i was confused about the accuplaylist was an understatement
	9:11pm Rich in Washington: ↳ pot8o @9:10 I do that all the time
	9:11pm Feldy: Hey Rich! Been enjoying the weirdness :)
	9:11pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Feldy @9:11 Hi Feldy!
	9:12pm tom tom the pipers son: read this as mao's four minute physical fitness pain
	🥁 9:12pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:09 Hi Kat! Thank you. I am very lucky in that I like all three of my jobs. One of them has moments where I think, "I can't believe these idiotic people are saying these idiotic things and I have to record them," but lately I've found that getting high helps me watch those meetings. I might be rambling a bit because I'm tired, so please forgive me if I make no sense.
	🥁 9:13pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:09 Thanks, tom tom. :-) I guess having sturdy shoes does go with the librarian image. Today I wore Doc Martens black oxfords.
	🥁 9:13pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:12 That's probably closer to the truth.
	9:13pm Ike: Hi all. Hi Wendy -- today a commenter told Jessica that she sounded familiar and asked if she'd ever worked in "specialty cheese", and I thought of you.
	9:14pm ironybread: All right, you dirty subversive infant, you'd better stop with the crying or it's a struggle session for you. #MaosWaysAreBest
	🥁 9:14pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Side A (excerpt)" by "Maxwell L. Howell" I'm totally jealous of this record. it's the kinda thing I like to use in the "educational" portion of my show's opening montage. Nice find, Rich!
	9:14pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Cottontail Rabbit Distress Cry (Long Calls, Rough... for all those hunters who brought their hi-fi set out into the woods with them
	🥁 9:15pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Ike @9:13 Hey Ike! Thanks. Had she?
	9:15pm tom tom the pipers son: @ wendy 9:12 very funny visual...
	🥁 9:15pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ pot8o @9:14 Haha, right?!? Also, hi pot8o!
	9:15pm Ike: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:15 Good question! I don't recall her getting a chance to respond.
	9:17pm Rich in Washington: Hi Ike!
	🥁 9:17pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:15 Picture me sitting at my desk at home, watching a Planning Board meeting, frowning while my pencil hovers over my notebook. Suddenly, I reach to my left and grab the vape pen from the drawer... In moments, the meeting will turn from alarming to kinda funny. At least to me.
	🥁 9:18pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Introduction / A Mighty Fortress Is Our God" by "... This is effin' awesome. Rich, you have the best dang records!
	9:19pm ultradamno: The second debate should be all feats of strength
	🥁 9:19pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Gruesome Stains" by "Klaus Flouride" Wait, whaaaat?!? How did I not know this existed until now?! Like I just said, you have the best records, Rich!
	9:22pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:17 i did picture it like that...
	9:26pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @9:19 Which is probably a better idea than what I heard Lawrence O'Donnell come up with, every candidate should get to have their team of advisors off to the side they can confer with before responding to anything....
	9:28pm ultradamno: Witch Trials next!
	🥁 9:29pm WR: ↳ ultradamno @9:26 It should be a vogue dance showdown. Will be a challenge for Biden but he should make the effort.
	🥁 9:29pm WR: ↳ WR @9:29 No words, just Strike a Pose!
	9:30pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @9:28 (my favorite DKs side project, though it's not really theirs, JB and EBR just appear on it)
	9:30pm Ike: Glob, grant me the serenity to accept the politics I cannot change, the courage to knock doors for the candidates where it'll make an iota of difference, and the wisdom to know the difference.
	🥁 9:31pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @9:30 well prayed
	🥁 9:31pm Wendy del Formaggio: COSMIC UNCONSCIOUSNESS!
	9:32pm tom tom the pipers son: ny times actually had a bar graph for the debate measuring "attacks" like it was mixed martial arts
	9:32pm pot8o: i'm just terrified if trump wins i'm a college student, lgbtq+, a leftist, mixed race, irreligious, and poor so that's pretty much every republican's punching bag wrapped up into one person
	🥁 9:32pm WR: ↳ Ike @9:30 I admire and appreciate your perseverance and focus.
	9:32pm ultradamno: They start vogue dancing, Ron Desantis might try and shut it down
	🥁 9:33pm Aitch: Late in, time got away
	🥁 9:34pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ pot8o @9:32 <3 I'm scared, too, pot8o, for similar reasons you mention.
	9:35pm Rich in Washington: Ha. Was playing the wrong song. Maybe I'm not fit to be president after all.
	🥁 9:36pm Aitch: Time for Biden/Harris to step aside for the George Clooney/Snoop Dog ticket.
	9:36pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Aitch @9:33 Aitch!
	9:36pm Rich in Washington: ↳ pot8o @9:32 Aw.. You're top potato in my book. Anyone who wants to use you as a punching bag has to go through me!
	9:37pm Rich in Washington: Allies are gonna have to get big again. WW2 big.
	🥁 9:37pm Aitch: ↳ pot8o @9:32 You're fried!!
	🥁 9:39pm Aitch: ↳ Aitch @9:37 Fri-ed, dang auto-correct
	9:40pm Ike: ↳ WR @9:32 What perseverance and focus? I prayed for some, but Glob didn't grant me any! I'm almost having panic attacks over here! Good thing I'm on drugs.
	9:44pm A Bump in Burbank: Great great great opening set!
	9:44pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Rich and all
	9:44pm pot8o: i know we're all supposed to hold our nose and vote for biden, but that doesn't mean the dems can roll around in manure
	9:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:44 Hi coel!
	9:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ A Bump in Burbank @9:44 Hi BiB!
	9:47pm ironybread: Oh Bump in Burbank, I can't even remember when or where we arranged to meet. I'm still up for it
	🥁 9:48pm WR: ↳ Song: "Side two excerpt" by "Firesign Theatre" ah man, he broke the president. Love this bit.
	9:51pm ultradamno: I saw a clip of Biden, I think it was after (but maybe not) saying "it's hard to debate a liar"...well, that was your one job!
	9:52pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @9:51 it was pathetic. I was watching it and wishing I still drank.
	9:53pm coelacanth∅: i didn't see or listen to it but i don't understand why everyone's concerned or upset by the debate. did biden have a stroke or something? ... if it's just about who someone says "won" the debate... GET REAL! nobody wins a debate. and in any case people who will vote for ronald mcdonald trump decided to a long time ago and nothing will change that. - people who will vote for biden decided to long ago and nothing did or will change that. the debate is just a field day for advertisers, nothing more.
	9:54pm coelacanth∅: ...or did something really shocking happen?!
	9:55pm A Bump in Burbank: ↳ ironybread @9:47 I think you mentioned Doughnut Hut. Forgotten til this moment. Rich, I request Do The Hustle by Van McCoy in the next set to celebrate the end of the American experiment. 💃🏻🕺🏻
	9:56pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:53 No. He's just nearly 90 and supposedly had a cold. he also deals with a very bad stutter which makes him at times appear aphasic, just dealing with speaking on the fly.
	9:57pm Rich in Washington: ↳ A Bump in Burbank @9:55 Ha ha! A grand idea. I'll see what I can do.
	9:57pm Dean: Folks, relax. None of our prexies heretofore would ever have argued and reasoned admirably. None. But then I don't vote, never have. None of these horror stories, none of their laws, have ever reflected what I would choose to govern my "interests." Biden is border-line mentally retarded. Trump is a dick. Both of them have been advocates of reasonable policies. I see no reason to have to choose.
	🥁 9:59pm Wendy del Formaggio: The sound of Burroughs's "jar-of-slow-buzzing-flies" voice is quite comforting right now.
	9:59pm ultradamno: I've heard it said that Trump started at his strongest and ended at his weakest and Biden started at his weakest and ended at his strongest. That it could be a wash for people who watch these things in their entirety...except almost no one does. Then there's the natural democrat tendency to spin out over any little thing.
	10:00pm Dean: Why is Burroughs' audience chuckling?
	10:01pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @9:57 biden's staff full of qualified competent people... trump's staff...'reasonable people'
	10:02pm tom tom the pipers son: question mark
	🥁 10:03pm WR: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:59 yes, same.
	10:06pm Ike: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:53 I watched the first 20 minutes and couldn't continue for my own mental health. It was the most pathetic and gruesome political debacle I've ever witnessed. I need 100 doughnuts to recover from that mystifying act of near-total political suicide. I feel like my brain was waterboarded.
	10:08pm Rich in Washington: answer to an earlier question: I think they're laughing because the ideas Burroughs is talking about seemed absurd back in the 70s/80s.
	🥁 10:09pm Wendy del Formaggio: "Rabid, sex-perverted Jews"? Hey, I resemble that remark!
	10:09pm ultradamno: In fairness, can anyone prove we didn't beat medicare? Trump alley cat t-shirts already exist mastodon.social...
	10:10pm Dean: "most pathetic and gruesome political debacle I've ever witnessed..." I honestly doubt that. This was a media spectacle, which is almost by definition designed to go awry. I worry when Americans express that their mental health is challenged by fairly predictably stupid behaviors. What world, American, have you thought you live in?
	🥁 10:10pm Aitch: Horrifying to watch from the outside world. A madman spewing nothing but lies and not answering questions. A elderly man clearly showing signs of dementia. Absolutely no moderation from the so-called moderators, with insufficient hard questions. Biden clearly needs to be replaced forthwith. Who with?
	10:11pm pot8o: yeah, i'm definitely wary about someone prone to making dan quayle-esque gaffes like that
	🥁 10:12pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Obliteration" by "Black Flag" Yay! Black Flag!
	10:12pm Dean: Well, we survived Quayle, so who cares?
	10:12pm Ike: ↳ Dean @10:10 I look forward to a BLOCK feature being added here in the future.
	🥁 10:13pm Aitch: ↳ Dean @10:12 The rest of the world cares very deeply.
	10:14pm Dean: I don't know what "BLOCK feature" means. The rest of the world cares not one whit about Dan Quayle!
	10:14pm pot8o: ↳ Aitch @10:10 i would support bernie but he's just as old aoc's too young, she's 34 right now, whitmer & newsom seem pretty good, buttigieg or harris seem decent but i don't know much about them
	🥁 10:16pm Aitch: ↳ pot8o @10:14 Anyone female, gay, coloured or jewish won't get up except as a VP.
	🥁 10:17pm Aitch: Purple Better One says it all
	10:17pm pot8o: ↳ Aitch @10:16 yeah, i forgot we're 30 years behind every other country in the nation
	10:17pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @10:14 dan quayle doesn't really figure into this equation, you say this election doesn't effect you but it does matter to people who had their strudent loans forgiven
	10:18pm pot8o: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:17 and lgbtq+ people, and women, and immigrants, etc
	10:18pm Dean: Good god, the ageism! Bernie's too old, AOC's too young! Do you hear yourself? Voting is so dumb. (I think that line appeared in the Federalist Papers.) Folks, vote for preferred ideologies. I would have voted for Shirley Chisholm, but I was too young. Nobody since approaches her in terms of ideology that I can buy.
	10:18pm Ike: ↳ Aitch @10:16 Quite the opposite. It would have to go to Harris, who is not ideal since she was a viciously extra-carceral California prosecutor in a past life. The Democratic party passing her up for a white person, even one far more electable like Whitmer (who would be an excellent unifying figure -- not too slick and ultra-centrist like Newsom, not too progressive, but has gotten both sides in MI to work together) would be horrendous optics and would risk alienating both Black and Asian voters, particularly Black women.
	10:19pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ pot8o @10:18 yes exactly....
	10:20pm Dean: Thanks, tom tom the pipers son @10:17. You couldn't have made the point more perfectly.
	10:20pm pot8o: ↳ Dean @10:18 aoc's just because she's 34 & you have to be 35 to run
	10:20pm pot8o: which is a stupid guideline, but i digress
	🥁 10:21pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Stars and Stripes of Corrupution" by "Dead Kennedys" YES!
	10:22pm ultradamno: www.mutualart.com...
	🥁 10:22pm Aitch: ↳ Ike @10:18 If they want to win the election it would be a very bad choice. It's your middle that needs to be won, the ordinary swing voters. And because you don't have to vote they have to be engaged enough to come out in numbers.
	10:22pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @10:18 dean, i think maybe you're being a trifle epicurian, like i have my record collection, to hell with the world
	10:26pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:22 trifle meaning a little, not trifling
	10:26pm ultradamno: I don't think we're saying 'coloured' again until Trump is actually re-elected
	10:27pm pot8o: ↳ ultradamno @10:26 yeah, it's a bit skeevy unless it's preceded by "national association for the advancement of"
	10:27pm ultradamno: ↳ pot8o @10:27 Even then, keep it on the acronym down-low
	🥁 10:28pm WR: Rich, your mic is over modulating / distorting a bit. Noticed it on previous break as well.
	10:29pm pot8o: pretty much anyone who isn't at risk of keeling over on live tv & opts to sit out of whatever bullshit's going on the middle east (as going anywhere near that quagmire is basically political suicide at this point) would be fine with me
	10:29pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ ultradamno @10:27 noun/ adjective placement all important ie... people of color
	10:31pm ultradamno: Hey Boris...really love the records they did with Merzbow borismerzbow.bandcamp.com...
	10:31pm Rich in Washington: ↳ WR @10:28 I'm running it through an Electroharmonix Big Muff. You no like?
	10:31pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ pot8o @10:29 i don't think quagmire is the right word for gaza
	10:32pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:31 i like the big muff
	10:32pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:31 it's not a stalemate
	10:33pm coelacanth∅: - and "people of color" is as bad as anything. how about "population minorities".
	10:34pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:32 or perhaps maybe so, hamas isn't going anywhere
	10:34pm Rich in Washington: In all seriousness, I ditched a dynamics processor that went rogue on me and am now manually having to manage everything on the fly.
	10:35pm ultradamno: Alex Kish played a couple of things off this benefit comp the other day. Good stuff thedissidents.bandcamp.com...
	10:37pm pot8o: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:31 now that netanyahu's trying to pick fights with every country bordering it, it very well might turn out that way
	10:37pm Rich in Washington: I don't own any Martin Mull records.
	10:37pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:34 still i like the big muff. the small muff is good too.
	10:37pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ pot8o @10:37 right...
	🥁 10:38pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:34 Your mention of the Electroharmonix Big Muff flashed me back to seventh grader me poring over the tiny ads in the Hit Parader I'd asked my mom to buy me at the supermarket, because I'd already read all the articles and that's what was left to read. thank you.
	🥁 10:38pm WR: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:31 I am just pointing out it sounding like what I had not noticed before on your program, even after that device died a month or so ago. you can listen to the archive playback and see what you think. also ironybread knows more and has better ears than I do, see what he says.
	🥁 10:38pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "??" by "Unknown commenter" Nice!
	10:39pm coelacanth∅: sun baked snow cave both may favorite boris album and my favorite merzbow album
	🥁 10:39pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "??" by "Unknown commenter" that's... some comment.
	10:40pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:33 right... but i don't think population minorities will fly language fails "minorities"
	10:40pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:39 I took changed all the numerous 'n-words' and made them into "n-words"
	10:42pm ultradamno: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:39 I like "bibole" (king james) got no red underlining
	🥁 10:43pm Kat in the chat: ↳ ultradamno @10:42 Nor did "faget"
	10:43pm coelacanth∅: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:40 maybe maybe not, but in the context of Aitch's post it would suffice
	10:43pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:42 the read underlining is from my text editor. I copy and pasted it from the station's chat page.
	10:43pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:40 language fails minorities... i'm failing
	🥁 10:44pm WR: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:40 Hah, nice effort but you missed a few. Maybe due to their inconsistent spelling.
	10:46pm Rich in Washington: The person was from Fairport NY. I have their name and everything.
	10:46pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "??" by "Unknown commenter" may or may not steal this for an album i'm working on might cut it up & run it through filters robert ashley style, been really into automatic writing ever since i got it on vinyl
	10:46pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:43 one really can't speak of what people of different races should be called no matter what the intention
	10:47pm pot8o: ↳ pot8o @10:46 definitely gonna cut the slurs out though, obviously
	🥁 10:49pm Kat in the chat: mic sounds better
	🥁 10:50pm Wendy del Formaggio: Oy gevalt, Rich, I am so tired. I hate to miss any of your show, but I gotta go to bed. Thanks for another fab evening. Good night, everyone!
	🥁 10:50pm WR: ↳ pot8o @10:47 if you cut out the slurs you will just have something like one of Rich's edits, like the one of Henry Rollins telling about his Iggy Pop encounters.
	🥁 10:50pm WR: Yes, mic sounds much better.
	🥁 10:52pm Kat in the chat: good night Wendy!
	10:52pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:50 Get your rest, Wendy! I hope you feel better soon! See you on the radio!
	10:53pm coelacanth∅: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:46 "population minorities" is just the statistical fact. i don't care what people themselves want to be called because people are generally only concerned for themselves. (like, "people of colour" is decidedly racist against "whites", for instants) - and anyway it's mostly one person's -sometimes flippant- idea, then the sheeple follow. i generally don't use ANY of these terms that perpetuate a sturdy separation between the masses, who are all in the same sinking ship together. fuck "black & white". absolute fucking bullshit, and the media pushes it to keep the people at odds with each-other; so ineffectual against the actual enemies.
	10:53pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:50 good night wendy...
	10:54pm pot8o: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:50 goodnight wendy!
	10:54pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:53 totally agree
	10:55pm tom tom the pipers son: but population minorities reduces people to numbers
	10:59pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Summer" by "Wendy Carlos" awesome album cover
	10:59pm coelacanth∅: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:55 and i would hate to do that - and don't feel anything of the sort in my heart... but it doesn't identify the minorities as a number any more than it does the majority.
	11:02pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:59 it's a slippery slope issue ...let's drop it... and it's late
	11:04pm coelacanth∅: and i'm exhausted...yet i told them i'd cover for someone ...forgetting my<4 hours sleep after working all day then 5 hours overnight last night. duh. Thanks Rich! take care y'all.
	11:04pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Summer" by "Wendy Carlos" do not dig the title of album, but music is great
	11:05pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:04 good night coelacanth...
	11:06pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:04 G'night!
	11:08pm pot8o: really digging this early electronics set
	🥁 11:09pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Summer" by "Wendy Carlos" I have a copy of this but it's barely playable, would like a better one
	🥁 11:10pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Summer" by "Wendy Carlos" Scary sounds. Just re-jigging bits in my modular synth, inspirations
	11:16pm tom tom the pipers son: this piece has a very post debate feel...imho
	🥁 11:19pm WR: ↳ Song: "Walking Green Algae Blues" by "Beaver & Krause" i hear a walking bass.
	11:20pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ WR @11:19 is that a walking organ...?
	🥁 11:21pm WR: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:20 bass line, either organ or synth
	🥁 11:21pm Zip7: Just rolled in from work and was perusing the message transcription Rich posted. Looks like the writer has been studying the writings of Francis E. Dec
	11:22pm pot8o: ↳ Zip7 @11:21 like francis e dec was your racist uncle who isn't invited to thanksgiving anymore
	11:22pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Zip7 @11:21 Hi Zip!
	11:23pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:20 walking bass (fish) walking organ( body part) like bosch painting or svankmejer flic
	11:23pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Zip7 @11:21 It WAS rather Dec like, innit?
	11:24pm Rich in Washington: I was just thinking that there's a Francis E. Dec on every corner now. He'd fit right in the 21st century. He'd be as big as Alex Jones.
	🥁 11:24pm WR: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:23 now y'all making me curious to go imbibe some bile spewer's bile.
	🥁 11:29pm Zip7: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:24 Absolutely! I have one living rght down the street. The Dead Kennedys album cover reminds me of one of my great regrets --not stealing the sign at a Shriner hall in Columbus Ohio. It was placed in front of the parking spot closest to the entrance and read "Reserved for Most Exalted Potentate."
	11:30pm pot8o: ↳ WR @11:24 just fire up the am radio late at night and you'll find plenty of bile
	🥁 11:31pm WR: ↳ pot8o @11:30 No thank you, I try to avoid it. So I read about Dec and a few quips, no full screeds.
	11:31pm Feldy: RIP Martin Mull
	11:34pm Feldy: BTW fun show, Rich! I’m bachelor-padding this weekend with my Boston Terrier and Great Dane who turns one YO tomorrow. Keeping these guys busy with RIB playing LOUD
	11:34pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Feldy @11:34 Nice!
	11:34pm northguineahills: just woke from a nap. i had a dream where ms de formaggio was leading a clan of bespeckled gerbils......
	11:35pm pot8o: ↳ northguineahills @11:34 ngh!
	11:35pm Rich in Washington: Oh, I also recommend the 1978 movie FM, with Mull playing a character whose very much like Johnny Fever on WKRP
	11:36pm Feldy: ↳ northguineahills @11:34 NGH, that’s better than the dream I had the other night where I was trying to use a public restroom with a lady trying to strike up a convo
	🥁 11:36pm Zip7: That rooster was the same one that starts the Gap Band's "Early in the Morning"
	11:37pm Rich in Washington: ↳ northguineahills @11:34 Hi NGH!
	11:37pm Feldy: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:35 I’ve never seen FM. Will look it up. Favorite Steely Dan tune
	11:38pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Feldy @11:37 It's on Archive dot org.
	11:39pm Rich in Washington: I found my disco records
	🥁 11:39pm Zip7: ↳ Song: "The American Hustle" by "Jeff & Jack Shelley" This sounds a lot different than Van McCoy's "Do the Hustle"
	11:39pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "The American Hustle" by "Jeff & Jack Shelley" disco dancing should be natural. i lurve how baffling this is to me!
	11:41pm Feldy: ↳ northguineahills @11:39 My goal is to dance like Sam Rockwell
	🥁 11:41pm Zip7: ↳ Song: "The American Hustle" by "Jeff & Jack Shelley" The announcer is a very demanding taskmaster
	11:41pm northguineahills: ↳ pot8o @11:35 pot80! I know I sent this to you before, but this my new fave site!: www.potatonewstoday.com

	11:44pm pot8o: ↳ northguineahills @11:41 have it on my taskbar and everything!
	11:45pm pot8o: kinda have a love/hate relationship with disco it's cheesy as hell, but that's what makes it excellent plus there's some really good disco out there, especially once it starts shifting into hi-nrg in the 80s (ave maria by the west india company comes to mind, jezebel spirit by eno & byrne)
	11:45pm Feldy: I love disco, esp the Jamiroquai interpretation
	🥁 11:47pm Zip7: I like a lot of disco but remember what George Clintons said about it: "It's like trying to make love with just one kinda stroke." I wish the Village People had done a song called "1040" about filling out a tax form and changing the oil in your car
	11:48pm northguineahills: ↳ Feldy @11:44 i'm not really fan of any particular of the athletes. I just love visual ambience. i watched the whole criterium du dauphine.....
	🥁 11:49pm Zip7: ↳ Song: "Purple Haze" by "John Doe and the Acetates" He's got a Big Muff and he's gonna use it!
	11:50pm northguineahills: ↳ pot8o @11:45 there's good disco, and REALLY bad disco. It was originally music for marginalized communities, and then it became monetized by music labels. (then the Italians did it better ;)
	11:50pm northguineahills: ↳ Zip7 @11:49 now i want to hear the muffs!
	11:51pm northguineahills: @Zip: is your doc available via biblio? the library system here on has that, not kanopy....
	11:53pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "The Whip" by "Suck" digs me some south african rock!

	🥁 11:54pm Zip7: ↳ northguineahills @11:51 Just kanopy for free, although also on vimeo. I'll send you notes for a talk on the gospel roots of disco I gave to a friend's class recently. That was a lot of fun!

The Radio Is Broken with Rich In Washington: Playlist from June 28, 2024

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

Listener comments!
	8:20pm ultradamno: Rich! Breakers! RIP Martin Mull...got Sex & Violins?
	8:50pm ultradamno: Also Kinky Friedman died yesterday. According to wiki he was the one and only artist to tape an Austin City Limits that they refused to air
	8:59pm ironybread: Currently watching classic 1960s Rock Hudson / Doris Day comedy "Make Room in the Oubliette". Hope Rich can find some selections from the soundtrack
	8:59pm pot8o: hi everyone!
	9:00pm Webhamster Henry: The GIF is broken!
	9:01pm tom tom the pipers son: hello rich and folks...
	9:01pm Rich in Washington: Hi everyone!
	🥁 9:01pm WR: Bezos Heh Heh hh Hed Headroom?
	🥁 9:02pm Wendy del Formaggio: Rich! I'm not sure if the radio is broken, but I know I am. This gal is exhausted.
	🥁 9:02pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "How Records Are Made Mix" by "Kill Ugly Radio" I like where this is going
	9:02pm Dean: Nice. The gif is an airing of last night's "debate."
	9:03pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Dean @9:02 lol
	9:05pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:02 oooo-ch, you may need a good pair of shoes for scooting round library
	9:06pm pot8o: ↳ Dean @9:02 total shitshow all around if that's the 2 candidates going into 2024, we're completely fucked to say the least
	9:06pm Rich in Washington: hi ultra! Hi ironybread! Hi pop8o! Hi Webhamster! Hi tom tom! Hi WR! Hi Wendy! (hope your cold is gone!) Hi Kat! Hi Dean! Hi Rich in Washington! Hi everyone!
	🥁 9:06pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:05 Thanks, tom tom. My shoes are fine. I'm still getting over this cold, so riding my bike to-and-from, then working for 8 hours, might be a bit much to ask even the best in modern footwear. My feet don't hurt. It's the rest of me.
	9:07pm Cp304: I wonder what made those tapes have that smell?
	🥁 9:07pm WR: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:02 Wendy! Did not know you were doing a fill in yesterday until seeing the drummer page as i was connecting to Explorer's room which was a Bronwyn fill in. Anyway, more WFMU stream listening deficit.
	🥁 9:08pm Wendy del Formaggio: Thanks, Rich! My cold lingers (stuffy sinuses, not as strong as I'd like to be), but I'm so much better. I had a very pleasant day at work.
	9:08pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:08 Oh! Your first day as a library person?
	🥁 9:09pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ WR @9:07 Hey WR! Yes, we missed you yesterday. But there's always the... ARCHIVES! Yay! www.wfmu.org...
	🥁 9:09pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:08 I don't remember the last time I said that about work :( glad yours is good and I hope you are 100% soon!
	9:09pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:06 yes i was half making a joke...but hope you feel better, that stuff'll all change soon enough...
	🥁 9:10pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:08 Nope, my third day. I only work there on Fridays and Saturdays. Today I catalogued some periodicals!
	9:10pm pot8o: was tuned into the mothership, to say i was confused about the accuplaylist was an understatement
	9:11pm Rich in Washington: ↳ pot8o @9:10 I do that all the time
	9:11pm Feldy: Hey Rich! Been enjoying the weirdness :)
	9:11pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Feldy @9:11 Hi Feldy!
	9:12pm tom tom the pipers son: read this as mao's four minute physical fitness pain
	🥁 9:12pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:09 Hi Kat! Thank you. I am very lucky in that I like all three of my jobs. One of them has moments where I think, "I can't believe these idiotic people are saying these idiotic things and I have to record them," but lately I've found that getting high helps me watch those meetings. I might be rambling a bit because I'm tired, so please forgive me if I make no sense.
	🥁 9:13pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:09 Thanks, tom tom. :-) I guess having sturdy shoes does go with the librarian image. Today I wore Doc Martens black oxfords.
	🥁 9:13pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:12 That's probably closer to the truth.
	9:13pm Ike: Hi all. Hi Wendy -- today a commenter told Jessica that she sounded familiar and asked if she'd ever worked in "specialty cheese", and I thought of you.
	9:14pm ironybread: All right, you dirty subversive infant, you'd better stop with the crying or it's a struggle session for you. #MaosWaysAreBest
	🥁 9:14pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Side A (excerpt)" by "Maxwell L. Howell" I'm totally jealous of this record. it's the kinda thing I like to use in the "educational" portion of my show's opening montage. Nice find, Rich!
	9:14pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Cottontail Rabbit Distress Cry (Long Calls, Rough... for all those hunters who brought their hi-fi set out into the woods with them
	🥁 9:15pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Ike @9:13 Hey Ike! Thanks. Had she?
	9:15pm tom tom the pipers son: @ wendy 9:12 very funny visual...
	🥁 9:15pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ pot8o @9:14 Haha, right?!? Also, hi pot8o!
	9:15pm Ike: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:15 Good question! I don't recall her getting a chance to respond.
	9:17pm Rich in Washington: Hi Ike!
	🥁 9:17pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:15 Picture me sitting at my desk at home, watching a Planning Board meeting, frowning while my pencil hovers over my notebook. Suddenly, I reach to my left and grab the vape pen from the drawer... In moments, the meeting will turn from alarming to kinda funny. At least to me.
	🥁 9:18pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Introduction / A Mighty Fortress Is Our God" by "... This is effin' awesome. Rich, you have the best dang records!
	9:19pm ultradamno: The second debate should be all feats of strength
	🥁 9:19pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Gruesome Stains" by "Klaus Flouride" Wait, whaaaat?!? How did I not know this existed until now?! Like I just said, you have the best records, Rich!
	9:22pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:17 i did picture it like that...
	9:26pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @9:19 Which is probably a better idea than what I heard Lawrence O'Donnell come up with, every candidate should get to have their team of advisors off to the side they can confer with before responding to anything....
	9:28pm ultradamno: Witch Trials next!
	🥁 9:29pm WR: ↳ ultradamno @9:26 It should be a vogue dance showdown. Will be a challenge for Biden but he should make the effort.
	🥁 9:29pm WR: ↳ WR @9:29 No words, just Strike a Pose!
	9:30pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @9:28 (my favorite DKs side project, though it's not really theirs, JB and EBR just appear on it)
	9:30pm Ike: Glob, grant me the serenity to accept the politics I cannot change, the courage to knock doors for the candidates where it'll make an iota of difference, and the wisdom to know the difference.
	🥁 9:31pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @9:30 well prayed
	🥁 9:31pm Wendy del Formaggio: COSMIC UNCONSCIOUSNESS!
	9:32pm tom tom the pipers son: ny times actually had a bar graph for the debate measuring "attacks" like it was mixed martial arts
	9:32pm pot8o: i'm just terrified if trump wins i'm a college student, lgbtq+, a leftist, mixed race, irreligious, and poor so that's pretty much every republican's punching bag wrapped up into one person
	🥁 9:32pm WR: ↳ Ike @9:30 I admire and appreciate your perseverance and focus.
	9:32pm ultradamno: They start vogue dancing, Ron Desantis might try and shut it down
	🥁 9:33pm Aitch: Late in, time got away
	🥁 9:34pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ pot8o @9:32 <3 I'm scared, too, pot8o, for similar reasons you mention.
	9:35pm Rich in Washington: Ha. Was playing the wrong song. Maybe I'm not fit to be president after all.
	🥁 9:36pm Aitch: Time for Biden/Harris to step aside for the George Clooney/Snoop Dog ticket.
	9:36pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Aitch @9:33 Aitch!
	9:36pm Rich in Washington: ↳ pot8o @9:32 Aw.. You're top potato in my book. Anyone who wants to use you as a punching bag has to go through me!
	9:37pm Rich in Washington: Allies are gonna have to get big again. WW2 big.
	🥁 9:37pm Aitch: ↳ pot8o @9:32 You're fried!!
	🥁 9:39pm Aitch: ↳ Aitch @9:37 Fri-ed, dang auto-correct
	9:40pm Ike: ↳ WR @9:32 What perseverance and focus? I prayed for some, but Glob didn't grant me any! I'm almost having panic attacks over here! Good thing I'm on drugs.
	9:44pm A Bump in Burbank: Great great great opening set!
	9:44pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Rich and all
	9:44pm pot8o: i know we're all supposed to hold our nose and vote for biden, but that doesn't mean the dems can roll around in manure
	9:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:44 Hi coel!
	9:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ A Bump in Burbank @9:44 Hi BiB!
	9:47pm ironybread: Oh Bump in Burbank, I can't even remember when or where we arranged to meet. I'm still up for it
	🥁 9:48pm WR: ↳ Song: "Side two excerpt" by "Firesign Theatre" ah man, he broke the president. Love this bit.
	9:51pm ultradamno: I saw a clip of Biden, I think it was after (but maybe not) saying "it's hard to debate a liar"...well, that was your one job!
	9:52pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @9:51 it was pathetic. I was watching it and wishing I still drank.
	9:53pm coelacanth∅: i didn't see or listen to it but i don't understand why everyone's concerned or upset by the debate. did biden have a stroke or something? ... if it's just about who someone says "won" the debate... GET REAL! nobody wins a debate. and in any case people who will vote for ronald mcdonald trump decided to a long time ago and nothing will change that. - people who will vote for biden decided to long ago and nothing did or will change that. the debate is just a field day for advertisers, nothing more.
	9:54pm coelacanth∅: ...or did something really shocking happen?!
	9:55pm A Bump in Burbank: ↳ ironybread @9:47 I think you mentioned Doughnut Hut. Forgotten til this moment. Rich, I request Do The Hustle by Van McCoy in the next set to celebrate the end of the American experiment. 💃🏻🕺🏻
	9:56pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:53 No. He's just nearly 90 and supposedly had a cold. he also deals with a very bad stutter which makes him at times appear aphasic, just dealing with speaking on the fly.
	9:57pm Rich in Washington: ↳ A Bump in Burbank @9:55 Ha ha! A grand idea. I'll see what I can do.
	9:57pm Dean: Folks, relax. None of our prexies heretofore would ever have argued and reasoned admirably. None. But then I don't vote, never have. None of these horror stories, none of their laws, have ever reflected what I would choose to govern my "interests." Biden is border-line mentally retarded. Trump is a dick. Both of them have been advocates of reasonable policies. I see no reason to have to choose.
	🥁 9:59pm Wendy del Formaggio: The sound of Burroughs's "jar-of-slow-buzzing-flies" voice is quite comforting right now.
	9:59pm ultradamno: I've heard it said that Trump started at his strongest and ended at his weakest and Biden started at his weakest and ended at his strongest. That it could be a wash for people who watch these things in their entirety...except almost no one does. Then there's the natural democrat tendency to spin out over any little thing.
	10:00pm Dean: Why is Burroughs' audience chuckling?
	10:01pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @9:57 biden's staff full of qualified competent people... trump's staff...'reasonable people'
	10:02pm tom tom the pipers son: question mark
	🥁 10:03pm WR: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @9:59 yes, same.
	10:06pm Ike: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:53 I watched the first 20 minutes and couldn't continue for my own mental health. It was the most pathetic and gruesome political debacle I've ever witnessed. I need 100 doughnuts to recover from that mystifying act of near-total political suicide. I feel like my brain was waterboarded.
	10:08pm Rich in Washington: answer to an earlier question: I think they're laughing because the ideas Burroughs is talking about seemed absurd back in the 70s/80s.
	🥁 10:09pm Wendy del Formaggio: "Rabid, sex-perverted Jews"? Hey, I resemble that remark!
	10:09pm ultradamno: In fairness, can anyone prove we didn't beat medicare? Trump alley cat t-shirts already exist mastodon.social...
	10:10pm Dean: "most pathetic and gruesome political debacle I've ever witnessed..." I honestly doubt that. This was a media spectacle, which is almost by definition designed to go awry. I worry when Americans express that their mental health is challenged by fairly predictably stupid behaviors. What world, American, have you thought you live in?
	🥁 10:10pm Aitch: Horrifying to watch from the outside world. A madman spewing nothing but lies and not answering questions. A elderly man clearly showing signs of dementia. Absolutely no moderation from the so-called moderators, with insufficient hard questions. Biden clearly needs to be replaced forthwith. Who with?
	10:11pm pot8o: yeah, i'm definitely wary about someone prone to making dan quayle-esque gaffes like that
	🥁 10:12pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Obliteration" by "Black Flag" Yay! Black Flag!
	10:12pm Dean: Well, we survived Quayle, so who cares?
	10:12pm Ike: ↳ Dean @10:10 I look forward to a BLOCK feature being added here in the future.
	🥁 10:13pm Aitch: ↳ Dean @10:12 The rest of the world cares very deeply.
	10:14pm Dean: I don't know what "BLOCK feature" means. The rest of the world cares not one whit about Dan Quayle!
	10:14pm pot8o: ↳ Aitch @10:10 i would support bernie but he's just as old aoc's too young, she's 34 right now, whitmer & newsom seem pretty good, buttigieg or harris seem decent but i don't know much about them
	🥁 10:16pm Aitch: ↳ pot8o @10:14 Anyone female, gay, coloured or jewish won't get up except as a VP.
	🥁 10:17pm Aitch: Purple Better One says it all
	10:17pm pot8o: ↳ Aitch @10:16 yeah, i forgot we're 30 years behind every other country in the nation
	10:17pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @10:14 dan quayle doesn't really figure into this equation, you say this election doesn't effect you but it does matter to people who had their strudent loans forgiven
	10:18pm pot8o: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:17 and lgbtq+ people, and women, and immigrants, etc
	10:18pm Dean: Good god, the ageism! Bernie's too old, AOC's too young! Do you hear yourself? Voting is so dumb. (I think that line appeared in the Federalist Papers.) Folks, vote for preferred ideologies. I would have voted for Shirley Chisholm, but I was too young. Nobody since approaches her in terms of ideology that I can buy.
	10:18pm Ike: ↳ Aitch @10:16 Quite the opposite. It would have to go to Harris, who is not ideal since she was a viciously extra-carceral California prosecutor in a past life. The Democratic party passing her up for a white person, even one far more electable like Whitmer (who would be an excellent unifying figure -- not too slick and ultra-centrist like Newsom, not too progressive, but has gotten both sides in MI to work together) would be horrendous optics and would risk alienating both Black and Asian voters, particularly Black women.
	10:19pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ pot8o @10:18 yes exactly....
	10:20pm Dean: Thanks, tom tom the pipers son @10:17. You couldn't have made the point more perfectly.
	10:20pm pot8o: ↳ Dean @10:18 aoc's just because she's 34 & you have to be 35 to run
	10:20pm pot8o: which is a stupid guideline, but i digress
	🥁 10:21pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Stars and Stripes of Corrupution" by "Dead Kennedys" YES!
	10:22pm ultradamno: www.mutualart.com...
	🥁 10:22pm Aitch: ↳ Ike @10:18 If they want to win the election it would be a very bad choice. It's your middle that needs to be won, the ordinary swing voters. And because you don't have to vote they have to be engaged enough to come out in numbers.
	10:22pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @10:18 dean, i think maybe you're being a trifle epicurian, like i have my record collection, to hell with the world
	10:26pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:22 trifle meaning a little, not trifling
	10:26pm ultradamno: I don't think we're saying 'coloured' again until Trump is actually re-elected
	10:27pm pot8o: ↳ ultradamno @10:26 yeah, it's a bit skeevy unless it's preceded by "national association for the advancement of"
	10:27pm ultradamno: ↳ pot8o @10:27 Even then, keep it on the acronym down-low
	🥁 10:28pm WR: Rich, your mic is over modulating / distorting a bit. Noticed it on previous break as well.
	10:29pm pot8o: pretty much anyone who isn't at risk of keeling over on live tv & opts to sit out of whatever bullshit's going on the middle east (as going anywhere near that quagmire is basically political suicide at this point) would be fine with me
	10:29pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ ultradamno @10:27 noun/ adjective placement all important ie... people of color
	10:31pm ultradamno: Hey Boris...really love the records they did with Merzbow borismerzbow.bandcamp.com...
	10:31pm Rich in Washington: ↳ WR @10:28 I'm running it through an Electroharmonix Big Muff. You no like?
	10:31pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ pot8o @10:29 i don't think quagmire is the right word for gaza
	10:32pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:31 i like the big muff
	10:32pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:31 it's not a stalemate
	10:33pm coelacanth∅: - and "people of color" is as bad as anything. how about "population minorities".
	10:34pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:32 or perhaps maybe so, hamas isn't going anywhere
	10:34pm Rich in Washington: In all seriousness, I ditched a dynamics processor that went rogue on me and am now manually having to manage everything on the fly.
	10:35pm ultradamno: Alex Kish played a couple of things off this benefit comp the other day. Good stuff thedissidents.bandcamp.com...
	10:37pm pot8o: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:31 now that netanyahu's trying to pick fights with every country bordering it, it very well might turn out that way
	10:37pm Rich in Washington: I don't own any Martin Mull records.
	10:37pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:34 still i like the big muff. the small muff is good too.
	10:37pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ pot8o @10:37 right...
	🥁 10:38pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:34 Your mention of the Electroharmonix Big Muff flashed me back to seventh grader me poring over the tiny ads in the Hit Parader I'd asked my mom to buy me at the supermarket, because I'd already read all the articles and that's what was left to read. thank you.
	🥁 10:38pm WR: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:31 I am just pointing out it sounding like what I had not noticed before on your program, even after that device died a month or so ago. you can listen to the archive playback and see what you think. also ironybread knows more and has better ears than I do, see what he says.
	🥁 10:38pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "??" by "Unknown commenter" Nice!
	10:39pm coelacanth∅: sun baked snow cave both may favorite boris album and my favorite merzbow album
	🥁 10:39pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "??" by "Unknown commenter" that's... some comment.
	10:40pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:33 right... but i don't think population minorities will fly language fails "minorities"
	10:40pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:39 I took changed all the numerous 'n-words' and made them into "n-words"
	10:42pm ultradamno: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:39 I like "bibole" (king james) got no red underlining
	🥁 10:43pm Kat in the chat: ↳ ultradamno @10:42 Nor did "faget"
	10:43pm coelacanth∅: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:40 maybe maybe not, but in the context of Aitch's post it would suffice
	10:43pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:42 the read underlining is from my text editor. I copy and pasted it from the station's chat page.
	10:43pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:40 language fails minorities... i'm failing
	🥁 10:44pm WR: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:40 Hah, nice effort but you missed a few. Maybe due to their inconsistent spelling.
	10:46pm Rich in Washington: The person was from Fairport NY. I have their name and everything.
	10:46pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "??" by "Unknown commenter" may or may not steal this for an album i'm working on might cut it up & run it through filters robert ashley style, been really into automatic writing ever since i got it on vinyl
	10:46pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:43 one really can't speak of what people of different races should be called no matter what the intention
	10:47pm pot8o: ↳ pot8o @10:46 definitely gonna cut the slurs out though, obviously
	🥁 10:49pm Kat in the chat: mic sounds better
	🥁 10:50pm Wendy del Formaggio: Oy gevalt, Rich, I am so tired. I hate to miss any of your show, but I gotta go to bed. Thanks for another fab evening. Good night, everyone!
	🥁 10:50pm WR: ↳ pot8o @10:47 if you cut out the slurs you will just have something like one of Rich's edits, like the one of Henry Rollins telling about his Iggy Pop encounters.
	🥁 10:50pm WR: Yes, mic sounds much better.
	🥁 10:52pm Kat in the chat: good night Wendy!
	10:52pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:50 Get your rest, Wendy! I hope you feel better soon! See you on the radio!
	10:53pm coelacanth∅: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:46 "population minorities" is just the statistical fact. i don't care what people themselves want to be called because people are generally only concerned for themselves. (like, "people of colour" is decidedly racist against "whites", for instants) - and anyway it's mostly one person's -sometimes flippant- idea, then the sheeple follow. i generally don't use ANY of these terms that perpetuate a sturdy separation between the masses, who are all in the same sinking ship together. fuck "black & white". absolute fucking bullshit, and the media pushes it to keep the people at odds with each-other; so ineffectual against the actual enemies.
	10:53pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:50 good night wendy...
	10:54pm pot8o: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:50 goodnight wendy!
	10:54pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:53 totally agree
	10:55pm tom tom the pipers son: but population minorities reduces people to numbers
	10:59pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Summer" by "Wendy Carlos" awesome album cover
	10:59pm coelacanth∅: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:55 and i would hate to do that - and don't feel anything of the sort in my heart... but it doesn't identify the minorities as a number any more than it does the majority.
	11:02pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:59 it's a slippery slope issue ...let's drop it... and it's late
	11:04pm coelacanth∅: and i'm exhausted...yet i told them i'd cover for someone ...forgetting my<4 hours sleep after working all day then 5 hours overnight last night. duh. Thanks Rich! take care y'all.
	11:04pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Summer" by "Wendy Carlos" do not dig the title of album, but music is great
	11:05pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:04 good night coelacanth...
	11:06pm Rich in Washington: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:04 G'night!
	11:08pm pot8o: really digging this early electronics set
	🥁 11:09pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Summer" by "Wendy Carlos" I have a copy of this but it's barely playable, would like a better one
	🥁 11:10pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Summer" by "Wendy Carlos" Scary sounds. Just re-jigging bits in my modular synth, inspirations
	11:16pm tom tom the pipers son: this piece has a very post debate feel...imho
	🥁 11:19pm WR: ↳ Song: "Walking Green Algae Blues" by "Beaver & Krause" i hear a walking bass.
	11:20pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ WR @11:19 is that a walking organ...?
	🥁 11:21pm WR: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:20 bass line, either organ or synth
	🥁 11:21pm Zip7: Just rolled in from work and was perusing the message transcription Rich posted. Looks like the writer has been studying the writings of Francis E. Dec
	11:22pm pot8o: ↳ Zip7 @11:21 like francis e dec was your racist uncle who isn't invited to thanksgiving anymore
	11:22pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Zip7 @11:21 Hi Zip!
	11:23pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:20 walking bass (fish) walking organ( body part) like bosch painting or svankmejer flic
	11:23pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Zip7 @11:21 It WAS rather Dec like, innit?
	11:24pm Rich in Washington: I was just thinking that there's a Francis E. Dec on every corner now. He'd fit right in the 21st century. He'd be as big as Alex Jones.
	🥁 11:24pm WR: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:23 now y'all making me curious to go imbibe some bile spewer's bile.
	🥁 11:29pm Zip7: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:24 Absolutely! I have one living rght down the street. The Dead Kennedys album cover reminds me of one of my great regrets --not stealing the sign at a Shriner hall in Columbus Ohio. It was placed in front of the parking spot closest to the entrance and read "Reserved for Most Exalted Potentate."
	11:30pm pot8o: ↳ WR @11:24 just fire up the am radio late at night and you'll find plenty of bile
	🥁 11:31pm WR: ↳ pot8o @11:30 No thank you, I try to avoid it. So I read about Dec and a few quips, no full screeds.
	11:31pm Feldy: RIP Martin Mull
	11:34pm Feldy: BTW fun show, Rich! I’m bachelor-padding this weekend with my Boston Terrier and Great Dane who turns one YO tomorrow. Keeping these guys busy with RIB playing LOUD
	11:34pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Feldy @11:34 Nice!
	11:34pm northguineahills: just woke from a nap. i had a dream where ms de formaggio was leading a clan of bespeckled gerbils......
	11:35pm pot8o: ↳ northguineahills @11:34 ngh!
	11:35pm Rich in Washington: Oh, I also recommend the 1978 movie FM, with Mull playing a character whose very much like Johnny Fever on WKRP
	11:36pm Feldy: ↳ northguineahills @11:34 NGH, that’s better than the dream I had the other night where I was trying to use a public restroom with a lady trying to strike up a convo
	🥁 11:36pm Zip7: That rooster was the same one that starts the Gap Band's "Early in the Morning"
	11:37pm Rich in Washington: ↳ northguineahills @11:34 Hi NGH!
	11:37pm Feldy: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:35 I’ve never seen FM. Will look it up. Favorite Steely Dan tune
	11:38pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Feldy @11:37 It's on Archive dot org.
	11:39pm Rich in Washington: I found my disco records
	🥁 11:39pm Zip7: ↳ Song: "The American Hustle" by "Jeff & Jack Shelley" This sounds a lot different than Van McCoy's "Do the Hustle"
	11:39pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "The American Hustle" by "Jeff & Jack Shelley" disco dancing should be natural. i lurve how baffling this is to me!
	11:41pm Feldy: ↳ northguineahills @11:39 My goal is to dance like Sam Rockwell
	🥁 11:41pm Zip7: ↳ Song: "The American Hustle" by "Jeff & Jack Shelley" The announcer is a very demanding taskmaster
	11:41pm northguineahills: ↳ pot8o @11:35 pot80! I know I sent this to you before, but this my new fave site!: www.potatonewstoday.com
	11:41pm Feldy: Anybody watching Tour de France stage one tomorrow?
	11:42pm northguineahills: ↳ Feldy @11:41 raises hand✋🏼
	11:44pm Feldy: ↳ northguineahills @11:42 You a Poggy fan or Jonas Vingegaard?
	11:44pm northguineahills: holy smithers, this disco is so aweful i dig it! /met my former partner while djing disco in monterrey, mx.....
	11:44pm pot8o: ↳ northguineahills @11:41 have it on my taskbar and everything!
	11:45pm pot8o: kinda have a love/hate relationship with disco it's cheesy as hell, but that's what makes it excellent plus there's some really good disco out there, especially once it starts shifting into hi-nrg in the 80s (ave maria by the west india company comes to mind, jezebel spirit by eno & byrne)
	11:45pm Feldy: I love disco, esp the Jamiroquai interpretation
	🥁 11:47pm Zip7: I like a lot of disco but remember what George Clintons said about it: "It's like trying to make love with just one kinda stroke." I wish the Village People had done a song called "1040" about filling out a tax form and changing the oil in your car
	11:48pm northguineahills: ↳ Feldy @11:44 i'm not really fan of any particular of the athletes. I just love visual ambience. i watched the whole criterium du dauphine.....
	🥁 11:49pm Zip7: ↳ Song: "Purple Haze" by "John Doe and the Acetates" He's got a Big Muff and he's gonna use it!
	11:50pm northguineahills: ↳ pot8o @11:45 there's good disco, and REALLY bad disco. It was originally music for marginalized communities, and then it became monetized by music labels. (then the Italians did it better ;)
	11:50pm northguineahills: ↳ Zip7 @11:49 now i want to hear the muffs!
	11:51pm northguineahills: @Zip: is your doc available via biblio? the library system here on has that, not kanopy....
	11:53pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "The Whip" by "Suck" digs me some south african rock!
	11:53pm northguineahills: munching on raw ramps right now,,,,
	🥁 11:53pm Aitch: Thanks for show Rich
	11:54pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Astral III" by "The Invaders" danks a doodle rich!
	🥁 11:54pm Zip7: ↳ northguineahills @11:51 Just kanopy for free, although also on vimeo. I'll send you notes for a talk on the gospel roots of disco I gave to a friend's class recently. That was a lot of fun!
	11:54pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Aitch @11:53 Thanks for listening!
	11:54pm pot8o: thanks rich! have a great week everyone!
	🥁 11:56pm Zip7: Thanks for the show, Rich. I've gone from doing the hustle to doing the frug!
	11:57pm northguineahills: now munching on spicy prawn chips....
	11:57pm Rich in Washington: Thanks for listening everybody!
	11:57pm Feldy: Great show, Rich! My dogs wanna hear more of the DK catalog now
	11:57pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Mirror Of Your Mind" by "We The People" been forever since I've gad microdots,,,,,
	11:59pm Mxter Baba: FDS?
	🥁 11:59pm Kat in the chat: thank you Rich!
	12:00am Mxter Baba: hello, Rich! swooping in at the last minute to say howdy.
	🥁 12:00am Zip7: A friend's older sister took STP (now known as DOM) once and said it lasted 72 hours -- really damaged the bearings
	12:00am tom tom the pipers son: thanks rich...
	12:00am Rich in Washington: ↳ Mxter Baba @12:00 Baba! Howdee!
	12:00am Mxter Baba: I live in pdx now!
	🥁 12:01am WR: THank you! Rich!
	12:01am northguineahills: ↳ Zip7 @12:00 i don't know what STP is! to the googles! /might lower my pH on Sunday, wink wink....
	12:01am Richy4619: kewl tunes (⌐■_■)♬
	🥁 12:01am Aitch: Nice finish!
	12:02am Mxter Baba: do the Hustle!
	12:03am Rich in Washington: Night everybody! I gotta go hustle up some grub!
	12:03am ultradamno: Offfuckgetting of the internet presently
