	♥ 9:22am TDK60: Your Lusophonograph is spinning today, Doug.
	♥ 9:23am StringOFperils: I don't think I'd like anyone digging a hole in MY mind.; it'd be like that closing scene in Kiss Me Deadly
	♥ 9:24am tom tom the pipers son: good morning doug and people...
	♥ 9:27am Doug Schulkind: Great to see you, tom tom the pipers son!
	9:27am still b/p: My 66th was a few days ago. Girlfriend treated me to a sail out of a Maine coast harbor aboard a nearly 100 year old schooner, then she fed me a four-star, endorphin-elating cake. If I'd experienced both of these things together, my head mighta blown clean off my shoulders.
	♥ 9:28am Little Danny: good morning
	♥ 9:28am Doug Schulkind: ↳ still b/p @9:27 Glad it wasn't an endolphin cake, still b/p. Hope it's been a Happy Route to 66!

	9:34am still b/p: ↳ Mxter Baba @9:30 Thanks! And I think there's one more serving of the cake at her place. I'd better send the cops to keep anyone else from approaching the house.
	9:35am still b/p: ↳ TDK60 @9:33 And thanks. Grateful I don't feel like Papillon sticking his head out of the hellish cell in solitary to ask "How do I look?"
	🥁 ♥ 9:37am Mxter Baba: ↳ still b/p @9:34 sounds like some tasty cake—what flavors?
	🥁 ♥ 9:37am Zip7: ↳ still b/p @9:35 Ha ha! Brilliant!
	♥ 9:38am TDK60: ↳ still b/p @9:35 still b/p. I'm a bit older than you. I always wonder who that person is in the bathroom mirror. Hee. But thanks for reminding me of that film, hadn't seen it in ages; liked it. Maybe I'll catch it again.
	♥ 9:39am StringOFperils: Sprawling Jazz Villa. I like it.
	♥ 9:40am Listener Gregory: MPS I've heard of; Saba...? No.
	🥁 ♥ 9:41am PAULS: ↳ Andy Schwartz @9:19 Andy -- send me your rain! And maybe take a stroll at Opus 40, one of my favorite places on the planet...
	9:41am still b/p: ↳ Mxter Baba @9:37 Chocolate, with orange cream icing. She makes it gluten free so she can enjoy. No loss of narcotic effect with the recipe.
	♥ 9:41am tom tom the pipers son: @doug, you seem to be hesitating talking about this industrialist like you're thinking ...how can this guy not be an (ex) nazi...
	9:41am Fire: This is fire.
	♥ 9:43am StringOFperils: Yes, Chef.
	♥ 9:43am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:41 well that's what i was thinking....
	♥ 9:44am Doug Schulkind: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:41 Interestingly, tom tom the producer of this series, Joachim-Ernst Berendt did serve in the Wehrmacht. (Probably conscripted to do so.) This despite the fact that his father was murdered at Dachau.
	♥ 9:45am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Fire @9:41 Glad you blazed your way in here, Fire!
	🥁 ♥ 9:45am Sem: ↳ mauri @9:12 mauri! Mitä sinulle kuuluu?
	♥ 9:46am Doug Schulkind: That drone-y instrument you're hearing is a mezoued (Algerian bagpipes).
	🥁 ♥ 9:46am Artie: Peaceful piano amongst a beehive of reeds. Metaphor for our times?
	♥ 9:47am Andrew in Toronto: Good morning, Doug, and all other listeners!
	♥ 9:47am Little Danny: wow, this is great
	♥ 9:47am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ bigplanetnoise @9:04 Morning, bpn!

	9:48am mauri: @Sem Hyvää. Loma järven rannalla ja kohta pizzaa! 😄 mitä itsellesi?
	♥ 9:48am StringOFperils: ↳ Little Danny @9:47 Yes! This is what my neighbours need to hear!
	♥ 9:48am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ TDK60 @9:22 Hi there, TDK60.
	♥ 9:49am Doug Schulkind: The superb American expatriate saxist Sahib Shihab on soprano sax here.
	♥ 9:49am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Sem @9:33 Morning, Sem!
	♥ 9:49am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ PAULS @9:47 Greetings, PAUlS!
	♥ 9:49am Doug Schulkind: Other notables: Eberhard Weber on bass, Jean-Luc Ponty on violin, Daniel Humair on trap drums.
	🥁 ♥ 9:51am Mxter Baba: ha ha, Quilty just gave me the best new avatar image!!
	♥ 9:52am Doug Schulkind: Jean-Luc Ponty had quite the range. Capable of creating both seriously challenging and unrelntingly unchallenging music.
	♥ 9:52am StringOFperils: ↳ Song: "Maghreb Cantata: Is Tikhbar / Ghitta / Alaji / Dj... Great ensemble. They should hang more often.
	🥁 ♥ 9:52am PAULS: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @9:49 HEy Andrew!
	♥ 9:54am Doug Schulkind: There are two more parts to this Cantata that I won't be playing: Buanuary and Fazani. I dediced to eschew the extra 11+ minutes so I could fit in other recordings from this Jazz Meets the World series.
	♥ 9:54am WR: Same as LG, long familiar with MPS Records but not SABA. en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 9:54am StringOFperils: I like to think that Jean-Luc upped the game where he participated in otherwise naf musical endeavours. Elton, for one.
	🥁 ♥ 9:54am DJ Peter: I think this is the first I've heard Eberhard Weber on contrabass (know him best as bass guitarist)?
	🥁 ♥ 9:55am Sem: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @9:49 Good morning to you, Andrew in TO!
	9:55am BillfromRockTavern: Good morning Doug and all fellow Drummer enthusiasts!
	♥ 9:55am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Sem @9:55 Did you read that Steviw Wonder piece yet?
	♥ 9:55am Doug Schulkind: Here is a telling of the SABA/MPS story: www.mps-music.com...
	♥ 9:56am Doug Schulkind: BillfromRocknRolllTavern!
	♥ 9:56am Gina Bacon: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @9:48 Morning, Andrew!
	♥ 9:56am WR: ↳ Mxter Baba @9:51 Quilty, is that a laugh, a yawn, a yelp? somewhat enigmatic.
	🥁 ♥ 9:56am Sem: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @9:55 It's on today's to-do list, AiT.
	♥ 9:57am StringOFperils: ↳ DJ Peter @9:54 A lot of older ECM (early-mid 70s) features Weber on the big beast.
	🥁 ♥ 9:58am sinner: ….and we are at the top of another fifth.
	9:58am bigplanetnoise: Morning, Andrew!
	♥ 9:58am Doug Schulkind: ↳ sinner @9:58 You'd better get to the bottom of it, pronto, sinner.
	♥ 9:58am StringOFperils: ↳ sinner @9:58 Jack 'n' cornflakes again, sinner?
	🥁 ♥ 9:59am pot8o: hi everyone!
	♥ 10:00am Doug Schulkind: I made the most amazing pot8o salad yesterday, pot8o. The secret is in the dijon mustard.
	🥁 ♥ 10:01am Artie: ↳ Song: "Maghreb Cantata: Is Tikhbar / Ghitta / Alaji / Dj... So, there exists a live rendition of this piece featuring Don Cherry. Hmmm.
	♥ 10:02am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Sem @9:56 Thanks!
	♥ 10:03am Little Danny: ↳ Song: "Burungkaka Tua" by "Tony Scott & The Indonesian A... hell yeah
	♥ 10:03am alanr: I hope you do not mind that the first part of the show was background music to watching local CDMX news about the hurricane hitting the Yucatán.
	♥ 10:03am Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Burungkaka Tua" by "Tony Scott & The Indonesian A... Nice!
	♥ 10:04am StringOFperils: O Merida. :(
	♥ 10:05am Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Burungkaka Tua" by "Tony Scott & The Indonesian A... Bubi Chen on piano and Marjono on flute.
	♥ 10:06am Doug Schulkind: ↳ alanr @10:03 You gotta deploy all your receptors appropriately alanr.
	🥁 ♥ 10:07am PAULS: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:06 It's also been a perfect soundtrack to tennis
	♥ 10:07am Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Matsuri No Genzo" by "Hideo Shiraki Quintet + 3 K... Koto girls! Yikes.
	♥ 10:09am StringOFperils: A whole set of incredible music I've never heard: thank you WFMU!!!!!
	♥ 10:09am Doug Schulkind: A 23-year-old Terumasa Hino on trumpet here.
	10:10am Oleh from Pittsburgh: Happy taking the 5th, Doug and drumistas
	♥ 10:10am Doug Schulkind: ↳ StringOFperils @10:09 WFMU thanks you, StringOFperils, for having open ears and an open mind.
	♥ 10:11am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @10:07 Disgustingly disrespectful, Listener Gregory.
	🥁 ♥ 10:11am DJ Peter: ↳ StringOFperils @9:57 Digging! And will do some digging!
	♥ 10:11am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Oleh from Pittsburgh @10:10 You can hear the Japanese melody in the drum solo. So cool.
	♥ 10:12am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Oleh from Pittsburgh @10:10 Not exactly "happy," but very much the 5th, Oleh. Greetings!
	🥁 ♥ 10:14am pot8o: ↳ Song: "Yaad" by "Motihar Trio / Schweizer Trio / Manfred... uli trepte of guru guru plays bass on this album
	♥ 10:17am Listener Gregory: In spite of the "Jazz Goes to [foreign country]" aspect of these recordings, they all sound pretty good.
	♥ 10:20am tom tom the pipers son: Thanks doug...headed out...
	🥁 ♥ 10:25am pot8o: i went to add them to my discogs wantlist, holy sticker shock
	♥ 10:27am Doug Schulkind: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:20 Safe travels, tom tom!
	♥ 10:27am Doug Schulkind: ↳ pot8o @10:25 You're not kidding, pot8o!
	♥ 10:28am (Mr) Bill: Finally free to string along for a while this morning….
	♥ 10:29am Doug Schulkind: This is the one Jazz Meets the World LP not recorded on SABA. Recorded live in 1971. I'm guessing added to the Jazz Meets the World series as an afterthought.
	🥁 ♥ 10:30am PAULS: Doug -- not sure if you heard but Joe Lee of Joe's Record Paradise died, sad day for music lovers in DC and everywhere.
	10:30am Dean: For a moment I thought this El Babaku track was some sort of tribute to one of Howard Stern's sidekicks.
	🥁 ♥ 10:31am Mxter Baba: ↳ Song: "El Babaku" by "El Babaku" I feel called out! LOL
	♥ 10:32am Doug Schulkind: ↳ PAULS @10:30 That place in Rockville, yes, PAULS?
	🥁 ♥ 10:33am PAULS: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:32 Yes it was originally, then moved to Silver Spring in the aughts
	♥ 10:33am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Dean @10:30 I see what you did there, Dean.
	♥ 10:33am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Mxter Baba @10:31 Mxter Baba = Baba Cool!
	♥ 10:34am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Sem @9:55 I hope you`ll like the new one I sent.
	🥁 ♥ 10:34am βrian: I missed Moondog, sadly.
	10:34am Dean: Nimbus West has been issuing a series of live recordings by Horace Tapscott's Pan-Afrikan Peoples Arkestra. I suppose they don't quite qualify for this set?
	🥁 ♥ 10:38am Brian in UK: Hello Doug & commentators.
	♥ 10:38am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Dean @10:34 Not exactly, Dean. Firstly, I am featuring here recordings from a species series called Jazz Meets the World from the German label SABA. Secondly, those Horace Tapscott groups were called pan-Afrikan, but it wasn't "African" music (though of course all jazz is, in deepest origins, a descendent of Africanism).
	♥ 10:39am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Brian in UK @10:38 Hello and congrats to you Brian in THE SEEMINGLY ONE PLACE ON THE PLANET NOT CURRENTLY LURCHING VIOLENTLY TOWARD FASCISM.
	♥ 10:41am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:39 I robustly second Doug’s sentiment.
	10:41am Dean: Right. "Pan-Afrikan" expressed an ideological alignment, rather than a cultural provenance. KPFK in LA used to feature two pan-African talk shows. I learned a lot from them at the time, though I wasn't necessarily beholden to some of their ideas. i donated to the station. Next thing I know, both shows are dropped from the schedule. Thanks, KPFK.
	🥁 ♥ 10:41am chresti: Hi Doug and drummers! Still a bit groggy after a night full of ka-booms..
	🥁 ♥ 10:42am Jeff Golick: Hi. Brian in UK, can you help me understand what I'm seeing in this photograph? bsky.app...
	♥ 10:42am Doug Schulkind: ↳ chresti @10:41 The one saving grace of not having a sweet pup around is that I didn't have a sweet pup around to suffer through last night's ka-booms.
	♥ 10:43am Doug Schulkind: Speaking of sweet, it's Jeff Golick!
	♥ 10:44am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Dean @10:41 Dean, as a teen and young man, I was besotted by the local Pacifica station in Washington, D.C., WPFW. It filled my head with Pan-Afrikan radicalism in music, politics and philosophy. I remained entirely besotted.
	10:45am Dean: A British friend of mine--now a US citizen--informs me that there is in fact a Monster Raving Loony Party in England. Among their policies: shops that play christmas music before december to be closed down and turned into public libraries minsters’ pay to be tied to that of nurses for the next 100 years the hand dryer in the gents’ urinals at the crown & treaty, uxbridge to be moved to a more sensible position.
	♥ 10:45am Doug Schulkind: Also as a young lad, I went through a Paco De Lucia phase. It was deep but not wide.
	🥁 ♥ 10:46am Jeff Golick: July 4th is the loudest, dumbest and most American of holidays, celebrating a successful program of throwing tax collectors out of the country so that we could enlarge our slave economy in peace. Yes, I have a headache.
	10:47am Dean: Unless I'm confusing MRLP with another party. LA's Pacifica station tanked when they hired a GM who strove to turn it into an NPR outpost. In addition to killing the pan-African shows, he asphyxiated the opera show, which went from four hours to two to one. Dave Mandl manages to shoehorn prog into a one-hour show, but it can't be done with opera.
	🥁 ♥ 10:48am Jeff Golick: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:46 (Please don't @ me with your Gordon S. Wood takes.)
	🥁 ♥ 10:49am PAULS: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:48 And now, what-what? we have a king here, too!
	10:49am Dean: From a friend, re: Independence Day: On July 2, 1776, the Continental Congress voted in favor of Lee’s motion to declare independence. John Adams was so excited for the country’s newfound independence, that he wrote to his wife Abigail that the second day of July would forever be a national holiday. "The second day of July 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more." To Adams’ chagrin (he would forever refuse to celebrate the holiday on the fourth), it was July 4 that became the commemorated date.
	♥ 10:52am Listener Gregory: Doug, I have to run to save the world. Oops, too late! But I still have to run. Will check out the rest of World Jazz later. Thanks a bunch!
	🥁 ♥ 10:52am Jeff Golick: ↳ PAULS @10:49 Not yet! Though the Gang of 6 have certainly paved the way. Ok, back to the music. Loving this SABA stuff, Doug!
	♥ 10:53am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Doug and Dougnitaries!
	♥ 10:53am TDK60: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:46 Hello Jeff. I lost a lot of sleep last night to the fireworks brigades. Now, the highest court says we can have a king. So, fuck the 4th.
	10:56am Dean: Pittsburgh is seeking a Director of the law library...
	♥ 11:04am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Dean @10:56 We've got a small, but nice guestroom, if you'll be applying, Dean!
	♥ 11:04am Doug Schulkind: Greetings,Ken From Hyde Park!
	♥ 11:05am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @10:52 Enjoy your next adventures, Listener Gregory!
	11:05am flannery: hello!
	11:06am Dean: Thank you, Doug! Honestly, I thought about it for about ten seconds, which is saying something. But I'm happy here at Berkeley.
	♥ 11:08am Doug Schulkind: ↳ flannery @11:05 Yahooey! flannery's here! Sweet of you to come, flan!
	🥁 ♥ 11:09am Brian in UK: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:39 Thank you Doug. A rather pathetic 60% turnout masks the proportion of votes against seats gained. Has to be an improvement though. I do worry for the USA, why are there no young(er) Democrats standing up.
	♥ 11:09am Doug Schulkind: Heavy Cuban vibe pulsing in this Beninoise magnificence!
	♥ 11:10am (Mr) Bill: ↳ TDK60 @10:53 Only a corrupt, ignorant, sociopathic, amoral idiot king, though. No other aspiring kings need apply.
	♥ 11:10am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Brian in UK @11:09 Younger Americans have, generally, never voted in any significant numbers. Talk about pathetic. Most young people I know call Biden "Genocide Joe."
	🥁 ♥ 11:11am Brian in UK: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:42 Jeff, Dean has answered it mainly in his comment.
	11:13am Dean: Founder of the Monster Raving Loony Party? Screaming Lord Sutch.
	♥ 11:14am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:10 Do these young people seriously believe that T***p will be better than Biden for Palestinian lives and statehood?
	♥ 11:16am Doug Schulkind: ↳ (Mr) Bill @11:14 (Mr) Bill, no, certainly not. But they seem incapable of understanding the concept of a worse evil.
	🥁 ♥ 11:16am Brian in UK: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:42 Rees-Mogg is one of the useless fuckwits that is responsible for among other things Brexit & being totally out of touch with everyday people. During lockdown his children's nanny was cutting his hair. I assume it was his childrens nanny & not his.
	♥ 11:17am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:16 This is a literally lethal incapability, Doug.
	♥ 11:18am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Brian in UK @11:16 A Rees Mogg sounds like some fairytale behemoth ogre that would bestride the countryside stomping on farmers and peasants.
	🥁 ♥ 11:19am Zip7: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:16 Maybe Biden should swim in the Potomac to reassure everyone, like Mao swam in the Yangstze in 1966 to assure everyone he wasn't ailing or dead
	♥ 11:19am Doug Schulkind: ↳ (Mr) Bill @11:17 Cultivating ignorance has been weaponized by the American rightwing (and I dare say fascists the world over) for generations.
	11:20am Dean: I won't hear about "kids these days." It's a charge they can only lose, based on a shortcoming without remedy, namely, that they have less experience, and therefore worse judgment, than we do.
	♥ 11:22am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Dean @11:20 These "kids" are 22, 23, 24 years old. They get no passes.
	♥ 11:23am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:18 I get most of my news from the Beeb and the Guardian these days. Usually Rees Mogg is more than hapless enough to make Bertie Wooster seem like Alfred North Whitehead.
	🥁 ♥ 11:23am Brian in UK: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:18 His father was the editor of the Times who wrote a leader 'Who breaks a butterfly on a wheel' referring to the Rolling Stones bust. www.thetimes.com...
	🥁 ♥ 11:24am Brian in UK: ↳ (Mr) Bill @11:23 Just reading some Wodehouse. Always makes me smile, lovely turns of phrase.
	♥ 11:25am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Zip7 @11:19 I contend that Biden should undergo a full cognitive evaluation by an impartial team, with full results publicly released in layperson’s language.
	🥁 ♥ 11:25am PAULS: ↳ Zip7 @11:19 Zip I'm not sure at this point Biden could dog paddle across his own bathtub... love him, but time to step aside.
	♥ 11:26am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Brian in UK @11:24 He was utterly brilliant. I’ve only recently learned of his place in American music theater, and my esteem for him has only grown.
	🥁 ♥ 11:27am Uncle Michael: I'm making some fresh HDT right after the ITT. No spoilers! Join me. wfmu.org...
	♥ 11:27am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Uncle Michael @11:27 Hinky dinky doo, Unk.
	11:27am Dean: That's my point. They aren't kids, but young adults, and at liberty to make their own judgments based upon their own values and ambitions. Who am I to tell them that they're "wrong"? If thanks to media mired in propaganda they are ignorant, I don't see how we elders are somehow immune to the same outcome. Well, goes the reply, we're older, we've seen more, we can discern cause and effect. It's not a fair charge.
	11:29am Dean: Hot dog tamales? Information technology tacos?
	🥁 ♥ 11:29am Sem: Les Volcans du Bénin was going to be the name of my first middle school band, but nobody there spoke French. C'est la vie.
	🥁 ♥ 11:30am Brian in UK: ↳ (Mr) Bill @11:26 Some of his writing has an American inflection, understandably so. Using words like crib in the 1930s.
	🥁 ♥ 11:33am bobdc: Idea for a future soul set: artists with "Soul" right in their name, like the Soul Survivors and Omar Souleyman.
	♥ 11:33am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Dean @11:27 Dean, I am here to tell them they are wrong. Me. I'm telling them. I'm screaming at them that they're very very wrong.
	♥ 11:34am Doug Schulkind: ↳ bobdc @11:33 I'll vote for that, bobdc.
	🥁 ♥ 11:34am Uncle Michael: ↳ bobdc @11:33 But alas, The Soul Survivors weren't a soul band!
	♥ 11:34am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Sem @11:29 Plus ça change, Sem.
	♥ 11:35am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Uncle Michael @11:34 They can be included in a "soul" set, Uncle Michael, but not the Soul set.
	🥁 ♥ 11:36am Sem: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:34 D'accord.
	🥁 ♥ 11:36am Brian in UK: Have a spiffing weekend everyone. Time to get all Rufus Thomas. Chin chin.
	♥ 11:36am Doug Schulkind: You DON'T have to wait! Hinky Dinky Time is coming right up at the top of the hour!!! Enter the wormhole to Hinkydinkyville: wfmu.org...
	♥ 11:37am coelacanth∅: good morning Doug, Drummers
	♥ 11:37am Doug Schulkind: The last name of Barbara, member of Barbara & the Browns? Brown!
	🥁 ♥ 11:37am Sem: ↳ Brian in UK @11:36 See you, BiUK.
	🥁 ♥ 11:37am Uncle Michael: I don't understand how anyone but the disengaged or willfully ignorant can look at each candidate's past performance and promised future, assume they're both telling the truth, and be the least bit confused about which represents the worse outcome. But hey, that's just me.
	♥ 11:37am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Dean @11:27 I largely concur with you, Dean. Young people up to about age 28 get even more latitude—their frontal lobes aren’t yet fully developed. I’m with Doug when he says that it’s up to us elders to try to persuade them that they’re dangerously wrong when they are, in fact, dangerously wrong.
	🥁 ♥ 11:38am bobdc: ↳ Uncle Michael @11:34 Mr. Souleyman might not qualify either, but I think we can include him anyway.
	♥ 11:38am Doug Schulkind: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:37 Howdy, c∅el!
	♥ 11:38am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Uncle Michael @11:37 It’s just you, because there is no unjust you, but it’s not only you.
	🥁 ♥ 11:39am PAULS: big ol' FISHHHH, howdy do?
	🥁 ♥ 11:39am pot8o: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:33 by and large they are useful idiots for fascism, and i genuinely wouldn't be surprised if putin & his cohorts are deliberately spreading so much drivel like that in order to tilt the election in favor of trump i personally don't like biden as much as the next guy, but at least i have the common sense to hold my nose and vote for him anyway
	🥁 ♥ 11:39am pot8o: to quote rebecca scott, "[V]oting is, in the words of Rebecca Solnit, a chess move and not a valentine. My vote is not a love letter to any candidate, and it never has been. It is, rather, a tactical decision about the preferred landscape on which I’ll carry out my political work . . . It’s also a recognition that, while the difference between the two major capitalist political parties is only an inch, a lot of vulnerable people exist within that inch. I also like Barbara Ransby’s analogy: voting is like brushing your teeth—it takes only a few minutes, but if you don’t do it, bad things could happen."
	🥁 ♥ 11:40am pot8o: *solnit
	♥ 11:41am Doug Schulkind: ↳ pot8o @11:39 Endorse endorse endorse, pot8o.
	♥ 11:41am (Mr) Bill: ↳ pot8o @11:40 Thank you for this quote. Everything Rebecca Solnit says is worth hearing and considering.
	🥁 ♥ 11:44am PAULS: ↳ Song: "Play with Fire" by "Barbara & Ernie" Great intro! dear lord
	♥ 11:45am Doug Schulkind: ↳ PAULS @11:44 Sounded very Quincy Jones to me.
	♥ 11:46am Doug Schulkind: Haha! This Barbara & Ernie record was produced by old friend Joel Dorn!
	11:46am Dean: Consider counterfactuals. You do vote, and bad things happen. Not enough voters like you? The election was rigged? What if more voters participate and the result remains bad? Do we at this point begin not to assume a candidate was telling the truth? The Solnit quote is a marvelous piece of moving the goal post. Party differences are "only an inch," that is, until that inch is occupied by "a lot of vulnerable people." I can't reconcile those two statements. Either the parties/candidates are very different, enough to make a difference to a lot of people, or they aren't all that different.
	🥁 ♥ 11:47am Mxter Baba: ↳ pot8o @11:39 on behalf of trans folx within that inch margin, I appreciate that. Though for trans women of color, that inch makes no difference at all
	11:48am ?: ↳ pot8o @11:39 Just jumping in here--I appreciate that quote and those ideas but I would say, now, at this time, 2024, the differences between the parties are more like a chasm
	11:48am Dean: I guess it depends on what the meaning of "different" is...
	🥁 ♥ 11:48am Mxter Baba: ↳ (Mr) Bill @11:41 and I agree! Rebecca Solnit is a clear cool drink of water in a barren wasteland
	11:49am Marie in Chicago: ↳ @11:48 that's me. Hi Doug, hi friends.
	🥁 ♥ 11:49am Jeff Golick: Astounding show! Thanks, Doug.
	🥁 ♥ 11:49am Uncle Michael: Sea levels rising only an inch is only an inch. Is an inch a lot? How long is a piece of string. Solnit's statement is solid. She's not playing games with words.
	🥁 ♥ 11:49am Mxter Baba: ↳ Dean @11:46 it does make a difference to many of us. Think about the degrees in astology.
	♥ 11:49am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Dean @11:46 In our present moment, the party differences are wider than the Pacific and deeper than the Mariana Trench.
	♥ 11:49am Doug Schulkind: Couple of Baltimoreans here, Barabara Stant and Joe Shamwell. Joe wrote a few tunes made famous by Peaches & Herb.
	🥁 ♥ 11:50am Uncle Michael: Thanks, Doug. See you shortly.
	11:51am Dean: Nobody would argue that sea level rose "only" an inch.
	♥ 11:51am Doug Schulkind: See you on the other side, Human Radiostation!
	🥁 ♥ 11:51am Mxter Baba: …and, BTW, I am digging this Barbara set!
	11:52am Oleh from Pittsburgh: Thanks Doug! Have a cooler weekend one and all
	♥ 11:52am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Marie in Chicago @11:49 Hey hey hey, Marie in Chi-town!
	🥁 ♥ 11:52am pot8o: ↳ Song: "Stormy Weather" by "Raw Soul w/Barbara & Debbie" got me drumming on my desk!
	🥁 ♥ 11:52am Uncle Michael: ↳ Dean @11:51 First, of course they would. Second, if your quibble is that it was an ill-considered qualifier, then, I call it a quibble, since "inch" is a metaphor to begin with.
	♥ 11:53am Doug Schulkind: ↳ pot8o @11:52 My work is done here, pot8o!
	♥ 11:55am (Mr) Bill: I (mis)spent a lot of Summer 2016 arguing with people on my left about the danger of believing there’s no appreciable difference between HRC and DJT. For once in my life, it kills me to say, I was right.
	🥁 ♥ 11:55am Zip7: Thanx Doug! You've given me a fine introduction to another year on this blighted orb. Peace, Love and Soul Power!
	🥁 ♥ 11:56am pot8o: thanks doug! have a great week everyone!
	♥ 11:57am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zip7 @11:55 Here's to the next 66, Zip7!
	♥ 11:57am Doug Schulkind: ↳ pot8o @11:56 Back atcha, pot8o!
	🥁 ♥ 11:58am PAULS: noooooo! always too soon. Thank you very much, Doug!
	🥁 ♥ 11:58am bobdc: Another great show Doug! (Self-assigned homework: learn more about George Gruntz, especially the Noon in Tunesia album.)
	11:58am Dean: Again, that's my point. It's a metaphor intended to represent that the parties are virtually identical. (I'm not saying I agree, but that this is the point of metaphor.) What's going on, then, when that minute difference is deployed to stand for a vast difference in outcome to the detriment of a large number of people. What physics are at work?
	11:58am Marie in Chicago: I'm gonna say that I think a lot of people make grandiose statements about our polities and parties but they are not paying attention to what is actually happening and being done on a daily level by politicians (not intended toward anyone on this chat)
	♥ 11:58am StringOFperils: Thanks much, Doug! Be of good cheer! Summers are a rare commodity. Bye y'all!
	♥ 11:59am coelacanth∅: ↳ Uncle Michael @11:49 ★
	♥ 11:59am (Mr) Bill: Thanks for the music and more, Doug. Rock on and string along.
	11:59am Marie in Chicago: Thanks, Doug! Ciao, all!
	♥ 12:00pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Doug!
	🥁 ♥ 12:01pm chresti: The Babs set! Thanks Doug!
	♥ 12:04pm Doug Schulkind: Thank you, chresti! coel! Marie! Bill! String! Dean! bobdc! PAULS! pot8o! Zip7! Uncle! Oleh! Baba! Jeff G! Sem! TDK60! Brian in UK! Listener Gregory! flannery! Ken From Hyde Park! BillFromRockTavern! βrian! And EVERYONE!
	♥ 1:24pm Andrew in Toronto: What a wonderful show! Thanks, Doug!
	♥ 2:24pm Doug Schulkind: Wonderful of you to say so, Andrew in Toronto. Thank you!

	9:34am still b/p: ↳ Mxter Baba @9:30 Thanks! And I think there's one more serving of the cake at her place. I'd better send the cops to keep anyone else from approaching the house.
	9:35am still b/p: ↳ TDK60 @9:33 And thanks. Grateful I don't feel like Papillon sticking his head out of the hellish cell in solitary to ask "How do I look?"

	9:41am still b/p: ↳ Mxter Baba @9:37 Chocolate, with orange cream icing. She makes it gluten free so she can enjoy. No loss of narcotic effect with the recipe.

	♥ 9:45am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Fire @9:41 Glad you blazed your way in here, Fire!
	🥁 ♥ 9:45am Sem: ↳ mauri @9:12 mauri! Mitä sinulle kuuluu?

	🥁 ♥ 9:51am Mxter Baba: ha ha, Quilty just gave me the best new avatar image!!
	♥ 9:52am Doug Schulkind: Jean-Luc Ponty had quite the range. Capable of creating both seriously challenging and unrelntingly unchallenging music.
	♥ 9:52am StringOFperils: ↳ Song: "Maghreb Cantata: Is Tikhbar / Ghitta / Alaji / Dj... Great ensemble. They should hang more often.
	🥁 ♥ 9:52am PAULS: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @9:49 HEy Andrew!
	♥ 9:54am Doug Schulkind: There are two more parts to this Cantata that I won't be playing: Buanuary and Fazani. I dediced to eschew the extra 11+ minutes so I could fit in other recordings from this Jazz Meets the World series.
	♥ 9:54am WR: Same as LG, long familiar with MPS Records but not SABA. en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 9:54am StringOFperils: I like to think that Jean-Luc upped the game where he participated in otherwise naf musical endeavours. Elton, for one.
	🥁 ♥ 9:54am DJ Peter: I think this is the first I've heard Eberhard Weber on contrabass (know him best as bass guitarist)?
	🥁 ♥ 9:55am Sem: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @9:49 Good morning to you, Andrew in TO!

	♥ 10:29am Doug Schulkind: This is the one Jazz Meets the World LP not recorded on SABA. Recorded live in 1971. I'm guessing added to the Jazz Meets the World series as an afterthought.
	🥁 ♥ 10:30am PAULS: Doug -- not sure if you heard but Joe Lee of Joe's Record Paradise died, sad day for music lovers in DC and everywhere.
	10:30am Dean: For a moment I thought this El Babaku track was some sort of tribute to one of Howard Stern's sidekicks.

	🥁 ♥ 10:34am βrian: I missed Moondog, sadly.
	10:34am Dean: Nimbus West has been issuing a series of live recordings by Horace Tapscott's Pan-Afrikan Peoples Arkestra. I suppose they don't quite qualify for this set?
	🥁 ♥ 10:38am Brian in UK: Hello Doug & commentators.
	♥ 10:38am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Dean @10:34 Not exactly, Dean. Firstly, I am featuring here recordings from a species series called Jazz Meets the World from the German label SABA. Secondly, those Horace Tapscott groups were called pan-Afrikan, but it wasn't "African" music (though of course all jazz is, in deepest origins, a descendent of Africanism).
	♥ 10:39am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Brian in UK @10:38 Hello and congrats to you Brian in THE SEEMINGLY ONE PLACE ON THE PLANET NOT CURRENTLY LURCHING VIOLENTLY TOWARD FASCISM.
	♥ 10:41am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:39 I robustly second Doug’s sentiment.
	10:41am Dean: Right. "Pan-Afrikan" expressed an ideological alignment, rather than a cultural provenance. KPFK in LA used to feature two pan-African talk shows. I learned a lot from them at the time, though I wasn't necessarily beholden to some of their ideas. i donated to the station. Next thing I know, both shows are dropped from the schedule. Thanks, KPFK.
	🥁 ♥ 10:41am chresti: Hi Doug and drummers! Still a bit groggy after a night full of ka-booms..
	🥁 ♥ 10:42am Jeff Golick: Hi. Brian in UK, can you help me understand what I'm seeing in this photograph? bsky.app...
	♥ 10:42am Doug Schulkind: ↳ chresti @10:41 The one saving grace of not having a sweet pup around is that I didn't have a sweet pup around to suffer through last night's ka-booms.
	♥ 10:43am Doug Schulkind: Speaking of sweet, it's Jeff Golick!
	♥ 10:44am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Dean @10:41 Dean, as a teen and young man, I was besotted by the local Pacifica station in Washington, D.C., WPFW. It filled my head with Pan-Afrikan radicalism in music, politics and philosophy. I remained entirely besotted.
	10:45am Dean: A British friend of mine--now a US citizen--informs me that there is in fact a Monster Raving Loony Party in England. Among their policies: shops that play christmas music before december to be closed down and turned into public libraries minsters’ pay to be tied to that of nurses for the next 100 years the hand dryer in the gents’ urinals at the crown & treaty, uxbridge to be moved to a more sensible position.
	♥ 10:45am Doug Schulkind: Also as a young lad, I went through a Paco De Lucia phase. It was deep but not wide.
	🥁 ♥ 10:46am Jeff Golick: July 4th is the loudest, dumbest and most American of holidays, celebrating a successful program of throwing tax collectors out of the country so that we could enlarge our slave economy in peace. Yes, I have a headache.
	10:47am Dean: Unless I'm confusing MRLP with another party. LA's Pacifica station tanked when they hired a GM who strove to turn it into an NPR outpost. In addition to killing the pan-African shows, he asphyxiated the opera show, which went from four hours to two to one. Dave Mandl manages to shoehorn prog into a one-hour show, but it can't be done with opera.
	🥁 ♥ 10:48am Jeff Golick: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:46 (Please don't @ me with your Gordon S. Wood takes.)
	🥁 ♥ 10:49am PAULS: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:48 And now, what-what? we have a king here, too!
	10:49am Dean: From a friend, re: Independence Day: On July 2, 1776, the Continental Congress voted in favor of Lee’s motion to declare independence. John Adams was so excited for the country’s newfound independence, that he wrote to his wife Abigail that the second day of July would forever be a national holiday. "The second day of July 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more." To Adams’ chagrin (he would forever refuse to celebrate the holiday on the fourth), it was July 4 that became the commemorated date.
	♥ 10:52am Listener Gregory: Doug, I have to run to save the world. Oops, too late! But I still have to run. Will check out the rest of World Jazz later. Thanks a bunch!
	🥁 ♥ 10:52am Jeff Golick: ↳ PAULS @10:49 Not yet! Though the Gang of 6 have certainly paved the way. Ok, back to the music. Loving this SABA stuff, Doug!
	♥ 10:53am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Doug and Dougnitaries!
	♥ 10:53am TDK60: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:46 Hello Jeff. I lost a lot of sleep last night to the fireworks brigades. Now, the highest court says we can have a king. So, fuck the 4th.
	10:56am Dean: Pittsburgh is seeking a Director of the law library...
	♥ 11:04am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Dean @10:56 We've got a small, but nice guestroom, if you'll be applying, Dean!
	♥ 11:04am Doug Schulkind: Greetings,Ken From Hyde Park!
	♥ 11:05am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Listener Gregory @10:52 Enjoy your next adventures, Listener Gregory!
	11:05am flannery: hello!
	11:06am Dean: Thank you, Doug! Honestly, I thought about it for about ten seconds, which is saying something. But I'm happy here at Berkeley.
	♥ 11:08am Doug Schulkind: ↳ flannery @11:05 Yahooey! flannery's here! Sweet of you to come, flan!
	🥁 ♥ 11:09am Brian in UK: ↳ Doug Schulkind @10:39 Thank you Doug. A rather pathetic 60% turnout masks the proportion of votes against seats gained. Has to be an improvement though. I do worry for the USA, why are there no young(er) Democrats standing up.
	♥ 11:09am Doug Schulkind: Heavy Cuban vibe pulsing in this Beninoise magnificence!
	♥ 11:10am (Mr) Bill: ↳ TDK60 @10:53 Only a corrupt, ignorant, sociopathic, amoral idiot king, though. No other aspiring kings need apply.
	♥ 11:10am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Brian in UK @11:09 Younger Americans have, generally, never voted in any significant numbers. Talk about pathetic. Most young people I know call Biden "Genocide Joe."
	🥁 ♥ 11:11am Brian in UK: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:42 Jeff, Dean has answered it mainly in his comment.
	11:13am Dean: Founder of the Monster Raving Loony Party? Screaming Lord Sutch.
	♥ 11:14am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:10 Do these young people seriously believe that T***p will be better than Biden for Palestinian lives and statehood?
	♥ 11:16am Doug Schulkind: ↳ (Mr) Bill @11:14 (Mr) Bill, no, certainly not. But they seem incapable of understanding the concept of a worse evil.
	🥁 ♥ 11:16am Brian in UK: ↳ Jeff Golick @10:42 Rees-Mogg is one of the useless fuckwits that is responsible for among other things Brexit & being totally out of touch with everyday people. During lockdown his children's nanny was cutting his hair. I assume it was his childrens nanny & not his.
	♥ 11:17am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:16 This is a literally lethal incapability, Doug.
	♥ 11:18am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Brian in UK @11:16 A Rees Mogg sounds like some fairytale behemoth ogre that would bestride the countryside stomping on farmers and peasants.
	🥁 ♥ 11:19am Zip7: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:16 Maybe Biden should swim in the Potomac to reassure everyone, like Mao swam in the Yangstze in 1966 to assure everyone he wasn't ailing or dead
	♥ 11:19am Doug Schulkind: ↳ (Mr) Bill @11:17 Cultivating ignorance has been weaponized by the American rightwing (and I dare say fascists the world over) for generations.
	11:20am Dean: I won't hear about "kids these days." It's a charge they can only lose, based on a shortcoming without remedy, namely, that they have less experience, and therefore worse judgment, than we do.
	♥ 11:22am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Dean @11:20 These "kids" are 22, 23, 24 years old. They get no passes.
	♥ 11:23am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:18 I get most of my news from the Beeb and the Guardian these days. Usually Rees Mogg is more than hapless enough to make Bertie Wooster seem like Alfred North Whitehead.
	🥁 ♥ 11:23am Brian in UK: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:18 His father was the editor of the Times who wrote a leader 'Who breaks a butterfly on a wheel' referring to the Rolling Stones bust. www.thetimes.com...
	🥁 ♥ 11:24am Brian in UK: ↳ (Mr) Bill @11:23 Just reading some Wodehouse. Always makes me smile, lovely turns of phrase.
	♥ 11:25am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Zip7 @11:19 I contend that Biden should undergo a full cognitive evaluation by an impartial team, with full results publicly released in layperson’s language.
	🥁 ♥ 11:25am PAULS: ↳ Zip7 @11:19 Zip I'm not sure at this point Biden could dog paddle across his own bathtub... love him, but time to step aside.
	♥ 11:26am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Brian in UK @11:24 He was utterly brilliant. I’ve only recently learned of his place in American music theater, and my esteem for him has only grown.
	🥁 ♥ 11:27am Uncle Michael: I'm making some fresh HDT right after the ITT. No spoilers! Join me. wfmu.org...
	♥ 11:27am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Uncle Michael @11:27 Hinky dinky doo, Unk.
	11:27am Dean: That's my point. They aren't kids, but young adults, and at liberty to make their own judgments based upon their own values and ambitions. Who am I to tell them that they're "wrong"? If thanks to media mired in propaganda they are ignorant, I don't see how we elders are somehow immune to the same outcome. Well, goes the reply, we're older, we've seen more, we can discern cause and effect. It's not a fair charge.
	11:29am Dean: Hot dog tamales? Information technology tacos?
	🥁 ♥ 11:29am Sem: Les Volcans du Bénin was going to be the name of my first middle school band, but nobody there spoke French. C'est la vie.
	🥁 ♥ 11:30am Brian in UK: ↳ (Mr) Bill @11:26 Some of his writing has an American inflection, understandably so. Using words like crib in the 1930s.
	🥁 ♥ 11:33am bobdc: Idea for a future soul set: artists with "Soul" right in their name, like the Soul Survivors and Omar Souleyman.
	♥ 11:33am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Dean @11:27 Dean, I am here to tell them they are wrong. Me. I'm telling them. I'm screaming at them that they're very very wrong.
	♥ 11:34am Doug Schulkind: ↳ bobdc @11:33 I'll vote for that, bobdc.
	🥁 ♥ 11:34am Uncle Michael: ↳ bobdc @11:33 But alas, The Soul Survivors weren't a soul band!
	♥ 11:34am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Sem @11:29 Plus ça change, Sem.
	♥ 11:35am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Uncle Michael @11:34 They can be included in a "soul" set, Uncle Michael, but not the Soul set.
	🥁 ♥ 11:36am Sem: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:34 D'accord.
	🥁 ♥ 11:36am Brian in UK: Have a spiffing weekend everyone. Time to get all Rufus Thomas. Chin chin.
	♥ 11:36am Doug Schulkind: You DON'T have to wait! Hinky Dinky Time is coming right up at the top of the hour!!! Enter the wormhole to Hinkydinkyville: wfmu.org...
	♥ 11:37am coelacanth∅: good morning Doug, Drummers
	♥ 11:37am Doug Schulkind: The last name of Barbara, member of Barbara & the Browns? Brown!
	🥁 ♥ 11:37am Sem: ↳ Brian in UK @11:36 See you, BiUK.
	🥁 ♥ 11:37am Uncle Michael: I don't understand how anyone but the disengaged or willfully ignorant can look at each candidate's past performance and promised future, assume they're both telling the truth, and be the least bit confused about which represents the worse outcome. But hey, that's just me.
	♥ 11:37am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Dean @11:27 I largely concur with you, Dean. Young people up to about age 28 get even more latitude—their frontal lobes aren’t yet fully developed. I’m with Doug when he says that it’s up to us elders to try to persuade them that they’re dangerously wrong when they are, in fact, dangerously wrong.
	🥁 ♥ 11:38am bobdc: ↳ Uncle Michael @11:34 Mr. Souleyman might not qualify either, but I think we can include him anyway.
	♥ 11:38am Doug Schulkind: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:37 Howdy, c∅el!
	♥ 11:38am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Uncle Michael @11:37 It’s just you, because there is no unjust you, but it’s not only you.
	🥁 ♥ 11:39am PAULS: big ol' FISHHHH, howdy do?
	🥁 ♥ 11:39am pot8o: ↳ Doug Schulkind @11:33 by and large they are useful idiots for fascism, and i genuinely wouldn't be surprised if putin & his cohorts are deliberately spreading so much drivel like that in order to tilt the election in favor of trump i personally don't like biden as much as the next guy, but at least i have the common sense to hold my nose and vote for him anyway
	🥁 ♥ 11:39am pot8o: to quote rebecca scott, "[V]oting is, in the words of Rebecca Solnit, a chess move and not a valentine. My vote is not a love letter to any candidate, and it never has been. It is, rather, a tactical decision about the preferred landscape on which I’ll carry out my political work . . . It’s also a recognition that, while the difference between the two major capitalist political parties is only an inch, a lot of vulnerable people exist within that inch. I also like Barbara Ransby’s analogy: voting is like brushing your teeth—it takes only a few minutes, but if you don’t do it, bad things could happen."
	🥁 ♥ 11:40am pot8o: *solnit
	♥ 11:41am Doug Schulkind: ↳ pot8o @11:39 Endorse endorse endorse, pot8o.
	♥ 11:41am (Mr) Bill: ↳ pot8o @11:40 Thank you for this quote. Everything Rebecca Solnit says is worth hearing and considering.
	🥁 ♥ 11:44am PAULS: ↳ Song: "Play with Fire" by "Barbara & Ernie" Great intro! dear lord
	♥ 11:45am Doug Schulkind: ↳ PAULS @11:44 Sounded very Quincy Jones to me.
	♥ 11:46am Doug Schulkind: Haha! This Barbara & Ernie record was produced by old friend Joel Dorn!
	11:46am Dean: Consider counterfactuals. You do vote, and bad things happen. Not enough voters like you? The election was rigged? What if more voters participate and the result remains bad? Do we at this point begin not to assume a candidate was telling the truth? The Solnit quote is a marvelous piece of moving the goal post. Party differences are "only an inch," that is, until that inch is occupied by "a lot of vulnerable people." I can't reconcile those two statements. Either the parties/candidates are very different, enough to make a difference to a lot of people, or they aren't all that different.
	🥁 ♥ 11:47am Mxter Baba: ↳ pot8o @11:39 on behalf of trans folx within that inch margin, I appreciate that. Though for trans women of color, that inch makes no difference at all
	11:48am ?: ↳ pot8o @11:39 Just jumping in here--I appreciate that quote and those ideas but I would say, now, at this time, 2024, the differences between the parties are more like a chasm
	11:48am Dean: I guess it depends on what the meaning of "different" is...
	🥁 ♥ 11:48am Mxter Baba: ↳ (Mr) Bill @11:41 and I agree! Rebecca Solnit is a clear cool drink of water in a barren wasteland
	11:49am Marie in Chicago: ↳ @11:48 that's me. Hi Doug, hi friends.
	🥁 ♥ 11:49am Jeff Golick: Astounding show! Thanks, Doug.
	🥁 ♥ 11:49am Uncle Michael: Sea levels rising only an inch is only an inch. Is an inch a lot? How long is a piece of string. Solnit's statement is solid. She's not playing games with words.
	🥁 ♥ 11:49am Mxter Baba: ↳ Dean @11:46 it does make a difference to many of us. Think about the degrees in astology.
	♥ 11:49am (Mr) Bill: ↳ Dean @11:46 In our present moment, the party differences are wider than the Pacific and deeper than the Mariana Trench.
	♥ 11:49am Doug Schulkind: Couple of Baltimoreans here, Barabara Stant and Joe Shamwell. Joe wrote a few tunes made famous by Peaches & Herb.
	🥁 ♥ 11:50am Uncle Michael: Thanks, Doug. See you shortly.
	11:51am Dean: Nobody would argue that sea level rose "only" an inch.
	♥ 11:51am Doug Schulkind: See you on the other side, Human Radiostation!
	🥁 ♥ 11:51am Mxter Baba: …and, BTW, I am digging this Barbara set!
	11:52am Oleh from Pittsburgh: Thanks Doug! Have a cooler weekend one and all
	♥ 11:52am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Marie in Chicago @11:49 Hey hey hey, Marie in Chi-town!
	🥁 ♥ 11:52am pot8o: ↳ Song: "Stormy Weather" by "Raw Soul w/Barbara & Debbie" got me drumming on my desk!
	🥁 ♥ 11:52am Uncle Michael: ↳ Dean @11:51 First, of course they would. Second, if your quibble is that it was an ill-considered qualifier, then, I call it a quibble, since "inch" is a metaphor to begin with.
	♥ 11:53am Doug Schulkind: ↳ pot8o @11:52 My work is done here, pot8o!
	♥ 11:55am (Mr) Bill: I (mis)spent a lot of Summer 2016 arguing with people on my left about the danger of believing there’s no appreciable difference between HRC and DJT. For once in my life, it kills me to say, I was right.
	🥁 ♥ 11:55am Zip7: Thanx Doug! You've given me a fine introduction to another year on this blighted orb. Peace, Love and Soul Power!
	🥁 ♥ 11:56am pot8o: thanks doug! have a great week everyone!
	♥ 11:57am Doug Schulkind: ↳ Zip7 @11:55 Here's to the next 66, Zip7!
	♥ 11:57am Doug Schulkind: ↳ pot8o @11:56 Back atcha, pot8o!
	🥁 ♥ 11:58am PAULS: noooooo! always too soon. Thank you very much, Doug!
	🥁 ♥ 11:58am bobdc: Another great show Doug! (Self-assigned homework: learn more about George Gruntz, especially the Noon in Tunesia album.)
	11:58am Dean: Again, that's my point. It's a metaphor intended to represent that the parties are virtually identical. (I'm not saying I agree, but that this is the point of metaphor.) What's going on, then, when that minute difference is deployed to stand for a vast difference in outcome to the detriment of a large number of people. What physics are at work?
	11:58am Marie in Chicago: I'm gonna say that I think a lot of people make grandiose statements about our polities and parties but they are not paying attention to what is actually happening and being done on a daily level by politicians (not intended toward anyone on this chat)
	♥ 11:58am StringOFperils: Thanks much, Doug! Be of good cheer! Summers are a rare commodity. Bye y'all!
	♥ 11:59am coelacanth∅: ↳ Uncle Michael @11:49 ★
