	🥁 9:09pm Kat in the chat: Had to nap after work and missed a chunk of the Hour of Crap, I hope it was all stuff I've heard already.
	9:10pm Rich in Washington: this episode is especially NSFW. If you have any children or HR people in the house, place them near the radio.

	🥁 9:16pm Kat in the chat: ↳ WR @9:13 I have too much work to do to have Covid haha. I took off the last time though. Mostly. You'd never know that I work for an employer that has the word "Health" in its name.
	9:16pm Rich in Washington: hi coel! Hi WR! Hi Don-O! Hi ironybread! Hi Kat Hi Dean! Hi pot80
	9:16pm Dean: Hi!

	9:17pm Rich in Washington: hi Aitch! Hi ultra!
	🥁 9:17pm Kat in the chat: ↳ ironybread @9:13 I gotcher new one bookmarked and will purchase this weekend :)
	9:18pm A➡B: Hi Rich & Radio Wreckers! I was wondering why the "I'm not supposed to be here" line kept echoing in my head all this time. I was thinking, "That would be my opening line if I were a comedian." Good thing I never had any intention to be one, especially with Cancel Culture on the prowl for convenient targets.
	9:18pm ironybread: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:17 You rock! I promise it won't make you sicker.
	🥁 9:18pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Family Snapshot" by "Peter Gabriel" Even though I listened to this daily for a time in the 80s, I'd forgotten all about this track. Wow.
	9:19pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "We Believe" by "People Like Us" triggering someone's trypophobia, somewhere
	🥁 9:20pm WR: ↳ ironybread @9:14 Ironybread! I was going to ask you for help decoding a xtwit you made recently but can't remember enough to ask. Well, I guess I have a couple of hours to try to find it and for you to go into radio silence so I will assume you didn't answer because you dropped off. Sorry if I am making any sense at all.
	9:20pm Dean: I was living in LA in '80, drove with buddies to Berkeley to hear this tour at Berkeley Community Theater. Having already been to the San Diego show, I knew when he would show up in the lobby outside the seating area. So we all headed out there to see him and proclaim our adoration.
	🥁 9:20pm Aitch: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:19 holistic
	🥁 9:22pm Kat in the chat: Dang, Rich. Totally great mix out of the gate.
	9:23pm Don-O: Please link that. Thanks...
	9:24pm ironybread: ↳ WR @9:20 ha, was it on my regular Xitter or my dirty Xitter
	🥁 9:24pm Kat in the chat: I would really like to hear that Shelley Dankert interview!
	9:24pm Don-O: Just a branch of those NegLand boys.
	9:25pm coelacanth∅: around 16 years ago "i'm not supposed to be here" became the stock answer among the "street kids" (curb critters; stoop culture; whatever) for most questions, especially if the questions came from tourists. -started with an instance of cop harassment
	🥁 9:25pm Kat in the chat: A Rich-less August?! You deserve it, though
	9:25pm Don-O: Life. Don't talk to me about life.....
	🥁 9:25pm WR: ↳ ironybread @9:24 something about a cat, a mouse, a garbage can and a goose. It is the goose that is confusing me.
	9:25pm A➡B: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:16 Hi Kat! Sorry to hear that nasty COVID bug hit you. I wish you good luck getting through the next vax shot & a speedy recovery.
	9:26pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Aitch @9:20 haha
	9:26pm ironybread: ↳ WR @9:25 Ah yes - just rewatch "Steamboat Willie" and all will be revealed
	9:27pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:24 It's here on KPFA's site kpfa.org...
	🥁 9:27pm Kat in the chat: ↳ A➡B @9:25 Thanks A->B!
	🥁 9:27pm WR: ↳ ironybread @9:26 I guess I am forgetting stuff in my dotage.
	🥁 9:28pm Kat in the chat: This Human League sleeve always brings me right back to my "graphic designer" days - Letraset, Formatt sheets, clip art... everything but Zipatone dots
	🥁 9:29pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:27 Thank you! Being housebound this weekend won't be so bad, I've got a pile of excellent listening now.
	9:31pm pot8o: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:28 human league always had really flashy (and really great) covers, i'm particularly fond of the one they used for the sound of the crowd ep
	🥁 9:31pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:28 Maybe I'll be DJ Zipatone next time I do a DJ thing
	9:32pm pot8o: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:29 add to that 8 hours of global grease! she's filling in for wendy this week as well as someday matinee
	9:33pm pot8o: i only reserve this kind of language to those who cut me off in traffic
	🥁 9:33pm Kat in the chat: ↳ pot8o @9:32 I always forget about Global Grease, sounds like I can fix that

	9:34pm A➡B: ↳ Song: "Waltzinblack" by "Stranglers" Is it already time for Harry Parmenter and The Funhouse?
	🥁 9:34pm Kat in the chat: ↳ pot8o @9:33 This is what I sound like working from home more often than i care to admit. I work with some fucking idiots, what can I say?
	9:35pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:34 reason i forget about global grease
	🥁 9:36pm Kat in the chat: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:34 I do feel compelled to listen to Mark Hurst, as disturbing as the subject matter might be.
	9:36pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:36 certainly eye opening
	🥁 9:38pm Aitch: Suitably disturbing today Rich, I approve
	🥁 9:38pm Kat in the chat: ↳ pot8o @9:31 I couldn't remember what that one looked like, had to search for it. Good one.
	9:39pm ironybread: Hi Aitch. I understand this week Australia got a new national anthem, "Death to Art" by TISM
	9:40pm pot8o: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:33 global grease is top notch! it's the perfect background music
	🥁 9:41pm Aitch: ↳ ironybread @9:39 The mystery of the artist explained
	9:44pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Mr. Clarinet" by "The Birthday Party" I don't think I've seen that sleeve before, looks like TVP's Painted Word
	9:44pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ pot8o @9:40 on monday she played miles elecxtric (get up with it) into larry young (laurence of newark) which demanded my attention
	9:45pm A➡B: ↳ ironybread @9:39 What's going on Down Under? Are they cutting off funding for the arts?
	9:46pm Rich in Washington: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:44 Lawrence of Newark is a superb album.
	9:48pm A➡B: ↳ A➡B @9:45 Perhaps I should've directed that question @ Aitch.
	9:48pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:46 learning about larry young this past year... an underknown substantial artist...
	9:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:48 If there's time tonight I might play something from that album.
	9:50pm tom tom the pipers son: great rich...)))
	9:55pm ironybread: 20 years ago I was in the Record Exchange in Boise and the cashier put this Stereolab/NWW cut on the in-store speakers and played it almost to the end, but when the DAT rewinds started near the end he said "Nope, too much, I can't take it."
	🥁 9:55pm Aitch: ↳ A➡B @9:48 No more than usual, but Ironybread was talking about a TISM song. Have a listen to their album Great Trucking Songs of the Renaissance for some fun.
	9:56pm ironybread: ...okay so actually it was probably 29 years ago. Wow did the store look different then
	9:58pm A➡B: ↳ Aitch @9:55 Did they post it on their Bandcamp? I have that bookmarked.
	🥁 9:59pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Technique" by "Wayne Carlton" Elk Bugling is a thing?
	10:03pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:59 Yeah. For people who want to lure and shoot them. I found that CD in a free pile at a garage sale in the middle of Bumfukt Egypt.
	🥁 10:04pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:03 next question: they have garage sales in Egypt?
	10:05pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:04 Yes. And Multi-level marketing. the egyptians invented it, you know
	10:08pm ironybread: Google map directions from Buttfucking Egypt to Dickshooter Idaho available on request.
	10:08pm Laura Panic: Late....and I hate looking back over playlists and getting like mad at songs I've missed.
	10:09pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Laura Panic @10:08 Don't panic, Laura! There's still two more hours to go!
	10:13pm Laura Panic: Yep, I'm stuck to the speaker til the end now! That Love 666 is great.
	10:14pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "This Is The Love 666" by "Love 666" this is reminding me of kim gordon's last one for some reason (this punkier) maybe vocals
	10:14pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Laura Panic @10:13 It's pretty cool. I'm diggin' it too.
	10:20pm Laura Panic: It's my old broken radio fave MOTTTTTHHHH COCCCKKKK. I enjoy them. Bonus best name.
	10:21pm ironybread: Everything I hear from Moth Cock is wonderful.
	10:21pm Laura Panic: Only recently came across this show after several years of listening. It's on Sat morning for me so I didnt stumble across it, not usually listening. But now I MAKE SURE I tune in.
	🥁 10:21pm Kat in the chat: I have seen Moth Cock and they were good
	🥁 10:22pm Kat in the chat: Empty Bottle in Chicago a few years back

	10:29pm Rich in Washington: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:28 He's pretty cool. I think you'd like him.
	🥁 10:30pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:29 That guy? Nah. Poser.
	10:30pm Rich in Washington: recently read a funny article about how Bowie covered one of a then-rising Bruce Springsteen's song and when they met, neither was particularly impressed with one another.
	10:31pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:30 A bush-leaguer.
	10:31pm wendy del formaggio: Hi Rich! Greetings from The Garden State! I never heard that Bowie “Velvet Goldmine” track, but suddenly a certain film title makes sense. I am psyched to hear more of the Ziggy sessions. I looooves me some Bowie.
	10:31pm coelacanth∅: interesting to hear these ziggy outtakes; but easy to understand why they were left off the album.
	10:31pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:31 Wendy! Howdy!
	10:31pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:29 (ha) (ha) heard the song "win" for the first time recently...a revelation...
	🥁 10:32pm Kat in the chat: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:31 I didn't know there was actually a Bowie song by that name. Liked the movie a lot.
	10:33pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:31 I've still never seen the movie Velvet Goldmine.
	10:33pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Take a Chance on Death" by "Love 666" this love 666...sumfing elsh
	10:34pm wendy del formaggio: Hi Kat! I haven’t seen that movie since it first came out on video. I mighta been 22 yrs old. I didn’t get it. Now that I’m 50, I’ll try again.
	10:35pm ironybread: I was wondering about "Velvet Goldmine" too...looks like it first escaped as a b-side of a "Space Oddity" reissue single in 1975
	10:35pm wendy del formaggio: Rich, can we somehow watch it together? That could be fun. A bicoastal MST3K. 😄
	10:36pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:35 There's probably a way!
	10:36pm northguineahills: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:35 everyone is bicoastal if you give geography a chance...
	10:37pm wendy del formaggio: @Rich: Yay!
	🥁 10:37pm Kat in the chat: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:34 I haven't watched it since it came out in theatres, I wonder if I would like it as much now?
	10:37pm tom tom the pipers son: was the movie velvet goldmine based on iggy/david relationship...loosely...
	10:38pm ultradamno: Does this song come with a 'if you or anyone in your township is considering self-harm, call..." disclaimer?
	🥁 10:40pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "C.I.A. Man" by "Sun City Girls" haha this is a jammer
	🥁 10:42pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:40 I hope all the kiddies and human resources personnel are gathered round the radio
	10:42pm ultradamno: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:37 Yep
	10:43pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ ultradamno @10:42 thanks...
	10:43pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:37 as far as I know....
	10:44pm wendy del formaggio: Is it just me, or does no Sun City Girls album sound like any other Sun City Girls album? I might be wrong. Further research is warranted.
	10:44pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @10:43 u huh... you excited for tomorrow....i'm jelly...;)
	10:45pm ultradamno: And Lou Reed was in the mix too, as I recall
	10:45pm ironybread: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:44 You are 100% correct
	10:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:44 They're very different. It's not you. Some of the Cloven Theater releases sound a bit the same to me, but just barely.
	10:46pm wendy del formaggio: @ironybread: Thank you! I still want to conduct more research though.
	10:47pm wendy del formaggio: There are some Sun City Girls tracks I cannot listen to. And others I can’t STOP listening to.
	10:47pm ultradamno: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:44 I saw them a few times, and not that far apart, and they were never much alike live either
	🥁 10:47pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Open Your Mouth" by "Negativland" Love the Weatherman's vocal performance on this one
	10:48pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:44 'tis i am!
	10:49pm Ike: Greetings from Montréal! I have no idea what I’m doing here… besides eating very well.
	🥁 10:50pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @10:49 Jealous! I adore Montreal and don't know when I'm getting back there again. Do enjoy.
	10:50pm ironybread: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:46 hiiiiike
	10:50pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Ike @10:49 Hail, Ike!
	10:53pm Ike: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:50 Um, any tips on tourist attractions that aren’t total bullcrap? Lol
	10:54pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Ike @10:53 i think the bagels are supposed to be good
	10:55pm Ike: ↳ Song: "George Tirebiter Editorial #1" by "Firesign Theatre" Sounds just a touch like Irwin.
	10:57pm northguineahills: ↳ Ike @10:53 kat would just suggest what I would....
	10:59pm pot8o: ↳ Ike @10:53 cheap thrills! really good record shop, ran by the guy who ran alien8 records a decade or two ago
	10:59pm Erik abides VT: ↳ Song: "Duck Enters The Race" by "Firesign Theatre" Yea, this is a Firesign I’m really diggin’-into. Horrifically still resonates even 45 years later!

	11:03pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Erik abides VT @10:59 Hello! Glad you're diggin' it!
	11:06pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Star Trek" by "The Melody Four" surprised to hear that lineup produce some relatively "normal" jazz
	🥁 11:08pm WR: ↳ Song: "Star Trek" by "The Melody Four" wow, more new to me Lol Coxhill in the wild. Thank you, again, Rich.
	🥁 11:11pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Whirling Hall Of Knives" by "Butthole Surfers" Yes
	11:12pm Rich in Washington: ↳ WR @11:08 Glad you liked it. It's a fun album.
	11:12pm wendy del formaggio: I thought I heard some Butthole Surfers coming on. Yay! Whirling Hall of Knives. So good.
	11:13pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @11:12 I just picked a minty reissue of this the other day. So good.
	11:15pm wendy del formaggio: @Rich: I didn’t know it was reissued. Mmm! Minty! It really is a genius album.
	🥁 11:16pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:50 Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours Chapel in Old Montreal, the Botanical Garden, "the mountain" Mount-Royal (do you hike?), the Plateau Mont-Royal and Mile-End area, Quartier des Spectacles, record stores the art museums (check what's on exhibit). St-Viateur Bagel & Café Mont-Royal so you can sit and eat - EFD just went there. Schwartz's Deli for smoked meat sandwich if the line isn't completely ridiculous, try going early (you won't need to eat again for quite a while).
	11:16pm Andres: ↳ Ike @10:53 Cuisine de Manille on Victoria Ave is more great eating. Fairmount, da best. Librarie Drawn and Quarterly for your comics needs. Expo 67 site. Habitat. Olympic dome. Hike the mount. Surfing in the river.
	11:18pm Andres: *Fairmount Bagel. And look up Sheena dj Otis Fodder.
	🥁 11:19pm Kat in the chat: I was supposed to meet up with Otis last time I was there, but his partner got Covid and we had to cancel.
	11:21pm Erik abides VT: ↳ Ike @10:49 Re Montréal, geesh, must be abt 10+years since I’ve revisited that wonderful city. yet agree with pot-8-o🥔, that “Cheap Thrills” record store (were 2 locations) usta be a stellar place to get weird & wonderful (WFMU type eclectic) vinyl & CDs, great used as well, etc. - not sure if they're still around. Spent some holy hunting hours there. 😁👏👏👏 Ps,etc: indeed, some incredible food to be et there. Bizarrely, had the best east coast Mexican food ever in Montréal 🤷‍♂️. Beaux-Arts center, don’t miss walking around the older sections. Lotsa circusy street performers. modern arts museum. A 360° film viewing bubble? Lots more.
	11:23pm pot8o: ↳ Erik abides VT @11:21 they're still around, but i believe it's just one location now afaik
	🥁 11:23pm Kat in the chat: Get a crepe somewhere, get some poutine somewhere, don't go too big on either one (I went to a place that served me a crepe the size of a football field)
	11:24pm wendy del formaggio: Listening to The Radio is Broken with katydids in the background. Lying on the deck looking at lights reflected in the lake. Feeling the cool night breeze. The moon is bright. I really needed this vacation and it is lovely.
	11:25pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @11:24 That does sound lovely.
	11:27pm Erik abides VT: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:16 Oh heck yea, the freakin Botanical Gardens! - apparently usta be considered second(?) to London’s botanical tourism. It’s a half day/multi hours event.
	🥁 11:27pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Erik abides VT @11:27 Yeah we were there for hours and still didn't cover all of it.
	11:29pm Ike: Wow, thanks for the ideas, y’all!
	11:30pm Ike: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:23 Reading up on the poutine places and restaurants was my only prep. I’ve been told that the trashy places have the best poutine, lol.
	🥁 11:31pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @11:29 Even the subways are nice
	11:32pm wendy del formaggio: @Rich: I wasn’t sure it could get any better. And then I changed into my pajamas.
	🥁 11:32pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @11:30 that, I don't know! Not the poutine expert.
	11:32pm ultradamno: There should be flowers capable of shooting squirt guns at tourists...the spanish heckling hyacinth
	11:33pm Ike: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:32 Yeah, I’ve heard that a grungy place called Montreal Pool Room (also serving hot dogs) is the place to go!
	🥁 11:34pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @11:33 Could be. haven't been but it sounds familiar.
	🥁 11:35pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:34 Whereabouts are you staying?
	🥁 11:35pm Kat in the chat: ^^for Ike obvs
	11:37pm Erik abides VT: ↳ pot8o @11:23 I’m so pleased & dangerously encouraged to hear/know cheap thrills is still hangin in there! - always regretted anything I sorted outta my piles of finds! And the automatic $ exchange via credit card usta be stellar. Funnily enough, re the eccentric “melody four” (incredible avant super group Not playing avant!) on great label ‘nato’ records = was often in-stock at cheap thrills!
	11:38pm wendy del formaggio: I definitely need a copy of Horse Cock Phepner.
	🥁 11:40pm WR: ↳ Ike @11:33 Ike, I recently read this about poutine places in Montreal www.bonappetit.com...
	🥁 11:41pm WR: Furries features in August! Brave!
	11:42pm wendy del formaggio: Thanks for the plug, Rich. A whole month, though?!? I better start making other Fri nite plans…
	11:42pm Rich in Washington: Hopefully I can still fit into the Biff (who is a anthropomorphic beaver) costume after nearly 23 years.
	🥁 11:43pm Kat in the chat: Why is BLOODROCK LIVE spelled out in Chee-tos?
	11:43pm wendy del formaggio: OMG I love this Bloodrock song. I don’t remember this exact intro though. Is it live?
	11:43pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "D.O.A." by "Bloodrock" I found this record in the same place that I found the crappy xtian record.
	11:43pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @11:43 Yep. Live!
	🥁 11:43pm Kat in the chat: This song really disturbed me as a young radio listener
	11:44pm ironybread: that audience applause moment must be when they revealed the giant inflated DC-10 above the stage
	11:45pm wendy del formaggio: The 70s were the golden era of Disaster Rock/Pop.
	11:45pm Laura Panic: Reminds me that I also love Dave Mandl's show.....
	11:46pm wendy del formaggio: (And now I have an idea for a future Marathon premium.)
	11:46pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Laura Panic @11:45 I do to. I rarely miss it.
	11:46pm ultradamno: Bloodrock were a band where only one earned the right to a hat www.thefinalvinyl.com...
	11:48pm wendy del formaggio: Rich, I’m almost certain the Butthole Surfers covered “DOA” live. I may have a low-fi recording at home.
	11:49pm Ike: ↳ WR @11:40 Thanks!
	11:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @11:48 They did!
	11:51pm Ike: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:35 A slightly trashy hotel in the Quartier des Spectacles, near Chinatown.
	11:51pm ultradamno: Still lording his hat privileges, but someone got some shades to compensate blogger.googleusercontent.com...
	11:52pm wendy del formaggio: Now THIS Dead Kennedys song?! My life is right!
	11:52pm tom tom the pipers son: hey rich thanks ...you really caught a vibe tonight....larry young ...maybe next week...?
	🥁 11:52pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @11:51 That sounds good
	11:52pm Rich in Washington: Thanks for listening everybody!
	11:53pm pot8o: thanks rich! have a great week everyone!
	11:53pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Moon Over Marin" by "Dead Kennedys" on purrely musicxal terms this is the best dead kennedys i've heard
	🥁 11:54pm Kat in the chat: ↳ ultradamno @11:51 I suspect early onset of male pattern baldness
	🥁 11:54pm Kat in the chat: Show went fast! Thanks, Rich!
	11:54pm Ike: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:52 I wish I could go hiking but I’m largely looking after my elderly parents. They’re the ones who got me into hiking in the first place, but they can’t do it much anymore. But I think we can manage the Botanical Gardens.
	🥁 11:55pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @11:54 I think there's a park at the base of the mountain!
	11:55pm coelacanth∅: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:53 the whole plastic surgeries disasters album is excellent musically (but poorly produced... a rare case of a cd reissue being better)
	11:55pm Ike: The faucet in this hotel randomly sometimes only dispenses hot water and no cold. And I’m thirsty. LOL
	11:55pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:55 thx...;)
	🥁 11:56pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @11:55 Oops. Let me know how you feel about the place at the end of your stay. Airbnbs aren't what they used to be, might be looking for a cheap hotel for next stay.
	11:56pm wendy del formaggio: So glad I at least caught 90 minutes or so of your show, Rich. Yay!
	11:57pm ultradamno: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:54 I remember seeing a band where the singer lost his do-rag onstage while rocking out, revealing his shame. He seemed mortified. Slammin' Watusis, maybe. This was years after Robert Quine should have reset the expectations.
	11:58pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Rich!
	🥁 11:58pm WR: Thank you! Rich! Laters all.
	🥁 11:58pm Aitch: Thanks Rich.
	11:59pm Rich in Washington: Nighty night everyone!
	🥁 11:59pm Kat in the chat: ↳ ultradamno @11:57 Ha, I haven't thought about Slammin' Watusis in ages.
	12:00am _Ike_: Wow. I’ve never heard that clip of angry internet lady, not on FMU’s main stream anyway — understandable given all the FCC-unfriendly cursing, ha.
	🥁 12:01am Kat in the chat: ↳ _Ike_ @12:00 Ken plays a VERY edited version of the Negativland track that samples her. Edited by our own Rich, I believe.
	12:02am ironybread: Lovely show again Rick!
	12:02am ultradamno: Get the heck of the internet
	12:02am Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @12:01 I edited the fuck out of it.
	🥁 12:02am Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:02 Literally.
	12:02am _Ike_: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:02 Bwahahahahaha
	12:02am Rich in Washington: Goodnight everyone! Don't forget to tip your waitress!
	12:03am ultradamno: ...or off, the heck of it is a lot

The Radio Is Broken with Rich In Washington: Playlist from July 19, 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

Firesign Theatre	Our Election Sponsors / The Simplex Slicer	Not Insane 1980! Campaign Chronicles	Firesign/Bandcamp	2024	"Elections! They're fun, right? RIGHT!? You'll have to speak up, we can't hear over your hysterical sobbing!! Yes, in 1980 Americans gathered in the public square of their minds and considered the many candidates for President. Boy, were they garbage. So obviously it was time for the Firesign Theatre, a group more interested in American trash than any other American artists, to come haul it away in the form of their weekly commentaries for NPR, "Campaign Chronicles"! Broadcasting weekly on "Morning Edition", Firesign provided useful thumbnails of every Presidential candidate, offered helpful summaries of the big campaign issues, did vox pops with a variety of real, totally not fake average citizens, and—in an exclusive that somehow no other network ever followed—gave regular updates on the star-crossed campaign of Republican candidate Daffy Duck."

	🥁 9:09pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:08 LOL right. Not as bad as my first case six months ago. Still want it to go away.
	🥁 9:09pm Kat in the chat: Had to nap after work and missed a chunk of the Hour of Crap, I hope it was all stuff I've heard already.
	9:10pm Rich in Washington: this episode is especially NSFW. If you have any children or HR people in the house, place them near the radio.
	9:12pm Dean: My children don't give a fuck about NSFW. Pismo Beach? Love that joint.
	9:12pm ironybread: America sure is interesting! Let's take it to the McDonalds and put it in the box marked "Thank You".

	🥁 9:17pm Kat in the chat: ↳ ironybread @9:13 I gotcher new one bookmarked and will purchase this weekend :)
	9:18pm A➡B: Hi Rich & Radio Wreckers! I was wondering why the "I'm not supposed to be here" line kept echoing in my head all this time. I was thinking, "That would be my opening line if I were a comedian." Good thing I never had any intention to be one, especially with Cancel Culture on the prowl for convenient targets.
	9:18pm ironybread: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:17 You rock! I promise it won't make you sicker.
	🥁 9:18pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Family Snapshot" by "Peter Gabriel" Even though I listened to this daily for a time in the 80s, I'd forgotten all about this track. Wow.
	9:19pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "We Believe" by "People Like Us" triggering someone's trypophobia, somewhere
	🥁 9:20pm WR: ↳ ironybread @9:14 Ironybread! I was going to ask you for help decoding a xtwit you made recently but can't remember enough to ask. Well, I guess I have a couple of hours to try to find it and for you to go into radio silence so I will assume you didn't answer because you dropped off. Sorry if I am making any sense at all.
	9:20pm Dean: I was living in LA in '80, drove with buddies to Berkeley to hear this tour at Berkeley Community Theater. Having already been to the San Diego show, I knew when he would show up in the lobby outside the seating area. So we all headed out there to see him and proclaim our adoration.
	🥁 9:20pm Aitch: ↳ coelacanth∅ @9:19 holistic
	🥁 9:22pm Kat in the chat: Dang, Rich. Totally great mix out of the gate.
	9:23pm Don-O: Please link that. Thanks...
	9:24pm ironybread: ↳ WR @9:20 ha, was it on my regular Xitter or my dirty Xitter
	🥁 9:24pm Kat in the chat: I would really like to hear that Shelley Dankert interview!
	9:24pm Don-O: Just a branch of those NegLand boys.
	9:25pm coelacanth∅: around 16 years ago "i'm not supposed to be here" became the stock answer among the "street kids" (curb critters; stoop culture; whatever) for most questions, especially if the questions came from tourists. -started with an instance of cop harassment
	🥁 9:25pm Kat in the chat: A Rich-less August?! You deserve it, though
	9:25pm Don-O: Life. Don't talk to me about life.....
	🥁 9:25pm WR: ↳ ironybread @9:24 something about a cat, a mouse, a garbage can and a goose. It is the goose that is confusing me.
	9:25pm A➡B: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:16 Hi Kat! Sorry to hear that nasty COVID bug hit you. I wish you good luck getting through the next vax shot & a speedy recovery.
	9:26pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Aitch @9:20 haha
	9:26pm ironybread: ↳ WR @9:25 Ah yes - just rewatch "Steamboat Willie" and all will be revealed
	9:27pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:24 It's here on KPFA's site kpfa.org...
	🥁 9:27pm Kat in the chat: ↳ A➡B @9:25 Thanks A->B!
	🥁 9:27pm WR: ↳ ironybread @9:26 I guess I am forgetting stuff in my dotage.
	🥁 9:28pm Kat in the chat: This Human League sleeve always brings me right back to my "graphic designer" days - Letraset, Formatt sheets, clip art... everything but Zipatone dots
	🥁 9:29pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:27 Thank you! Being housebound this weekend won't be so bad, I've got a pile of excellent listening now.
	9:31pm pot8o: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:28 human league always had really flashy (and really great) covers, i'm particularly fond of the one they used for the sound of the crowd ep
	🥁 9:31pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:28 Maybe I'll be DJ Zipatone next time I do a DJ thing
	9:32pm pot8o: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:29 add to that 8 hours of global grease! she's filling in for wendy this week as well as someday matinee
	9:33pm pot8o: i only reserve this kind of language to those who cut me off in traffic
	🥁 9:33pm Kat in the chat: ↳ pot8o @9:32 I always forget about Global Grease, sounds like I can fix that

	9:34pm A➡B: ↳ Song: "Waltzinblack" by "Stranglers" Is it already time for Harry Parmenter and The Funhouse?
	🥁 9:34pm Kat in the chat: ↳ pot8o @9:33 This is what I sound like working from home more often than i care to admit. I work with some fucking idiots, what can I say?
	9:35pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:34 reason i forget about global grease
	🥁 9:36pm Kat in the chat: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:34 I do feel compelled to listen to Mark Hurst, as disturbing as the subject matter might be.
	9:36pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:36 certainly eye opening
	🥁 9:38pm Aitch: Suitably disturbing today Rich, I approve
	🥁 9:38pm Kat in the chat: ↳ pot8o @9:31 I couldn't remember what that one looked like, had to search for it. Good one.
	9:39pm ironybread: Hi Aitch. I understand this week Australia got a new national anthem, "Death to Art" by TISM
	9:40pm pot8o: ↳ Kat in the chat @9:33 global grease is top notch! it's the perfect background music
	🥁 9:41pm Aitch: ↳ ironybread @9:39 The mystery of the artist explained
	9:44pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Mr. Clarinet" by "The Birthday Party" I don't think I've seen that sleeve before, looks like TVP's Painted Word
	9:44pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ pot8o @9:40 on monday she played miles elecxtric (get up with it) into larry young (laurence of newark) which demanded my attention
	9:45pm A➡B: ↳ ironybread @9:39 What's going on Down Under? Are they cutting off funding for the arts?
	9:46pm Rich in Washington: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:44 Lawrence of Newark is a superb album.
	9:48pm A➡B: ↳ A➡B @9:45 Perhaps I should've directed that question @ Aitch.

	9:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:48 If there's time tonight I might play something from that album.
	9:50pm tom tom the pipers son: great rich...)))
	9:55pm ironybread: 20 years ago I was in the Record Exchange in Boise and the cashier put this Stereolab/NWW cut on the in-store speakers and played it almost to the end, but when the DAT rewinds started near the end he said "Nope, too much, I can't take it."
	🥁 9:55pm Aitch: ↳ A➡B @9:48 No more than usual, but Ironybread was talking about a TISM song. Have a listen to their album Great Trucking Songs of the Renaissance for some fun.
	9:56pm ironybread: ...okay so actually it was probably 29 years ago. Wow did the store look different then

	10:13pm Laura Panic: Yep, I'm stuck to the speaker til the end now! That Love 666 is great.

	10:20pm Laura Panic: It's my old broken radio fave MOTTTTTHHHH COCCCKKKK. I enjoy them. Bonus best name.
	10:21pm ironybread: Everything I hear from Moth Cock is wonderful.
	10:21pm Laura Panic: Only recently came across this show after several years of listening. It's on Sat morning for me so I didnt stumble across it, not usually listening. But now I MAKE SURE I tune in.

	10:30pm Rich in Washington: recently read a funny article about how Bowie covered one of a then-rising Bruce Springsteen's song and when they met, neither was particularly impressed with one another.
	10:31pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:30 A bush-leaguer.
	10:31pm wendy del formaggio: Hi Rich! Greetings from The Garden State! I never heard that Bowie “Velvet Goldmine” track, but suddenly a certain film title makes sense. I am psyched to hear more of the Ziggy sessions. I looooves me some Bowie.
	10:31pm coelacanth∅: interesting to hear these ziggy outtakes; but easy to understand why they were left off the album.
	10:31pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:31 Wendy! Howdy!
	10:31pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:29 (ha) (ha) heard the song "win" for the first time recently...a revelation...
	🥁 10:32pm Kat in the chat: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:31 I didn't know there was actually a Bowie song by that name. Liked the movie a lot.
	10:33pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:31 I've still never seen the movie Velvet Goldmine.
	10:33pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Take a Chance on Death" by "Love 666" this love 666...sumfing elsh
	10:34pm wendy del formaggio: Hi Kat! I haven’t seen that movie since it first came out on video. I mighta been 22 yrs old. I didn’t get it. Now that I’m 50, I’ll try again.
	10:35pm ironybread: I was wondering about "Velvet Goldmine" too...looks like it first escaped as a b-side of a "Space Oddity" reissue single in 1975
	10:35pm wendy del formaggio: Rich, can we somehow watch it together? That could be fun. A bicoastal MST3K. 😄
	10:36pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:35 There's probably a way!
	10:36pm northguineahills: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:35 everyone is bicoastal if you give geography a chance...
	10:37pm wendy del formaggio: @Rich: Yay!
	🥁 10:37pm Kat in the chat: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:34 I haven't watched it since it came out in theatres, I wonder if I would like it as much now?
	10:37pm tom tom the pipers son: was the movie velvet goldmine based on iggy/david relationship...loosely...
	10:38pm ultradamno: Does this song come with a 'if you or anyone in your township is considering self-harm, call..." disclaimer?
	🥁 10:40pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "C.I.A. Man" by "Sun City Girls" haha this is a jammer

	10:43pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:37 as far as I know....
	10:44pm wendy del formaggio: Is it just me, or does no Sun City Girls album sound like any other Sun City Girls album? I might be wrong. Further research is warranted.
	10:44pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @10:43 u huh... you excited for tomorrow....i'm jelly...;)
	10:45pm ultradamno: And Lou Reed was in the mix too, as I recall
	10:45pm ironybread: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:44 You are 100% correct
	10:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:44 They're very different. It's not you. Some of the Cloven Theater releases sound a bit the same to me, but just barely.
	10:46pm wendy del formaggio: @ironybread: Thank you! I still want to conduct more research though.
	10:47pm wendy del formaggio: There are some Sun City Girls tracks I cannot listen to. And others I can’t STOP listening to.
	10:47pm ultradamno: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:44 I saw them a few times, and not that far apart, and they were never much alike live either
	🥁 10:47pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Open Your Mouth" by "Negativland" Love the Weatherman's vocal performance on this one
	10:48pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:44 'tis i am!
	10:49pm Ike: Greetings from Montréal! I have no idea what I’m doing here… besides eating very well.
	🥁 10:50pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @10:49 Jealous! I adore Montreal and don't know when I'm getting back there again. Do enjoy.
	10:50pm ironybread: ↳ wendy del formaggio @10:46 hiiiiike
	10:50pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Ike @10:49 Hail, Ike!
	10:53pm Ike: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:50 Um, any tips on tourist attractions that aren’t total bullcrap? Lol
	10:54pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Ike @10:53 i think the bagels are supposed to be good
	10:55pm Ike: ↳ Song: "George Tirebiter Editorial #1" by "Firesign Theatre" Sounds just a touch like Irwin.
	10:57pm northguineahills: ↳ Ike @10:53 kat would just suggest what I would....
	10:59pm pot8o: ↳ Ike @10:53 cheap thrills! really good record shop, ran by the guy who ran alien8 records a decade or two ago
	10:59pm Erik abides VT: ↳ Song: "Duck Enters The Race" by "Firesign Theatre" Yea, this is a Firesign I’m really diggin’-into. Horrifically still resonates even 45 years later!
	🥁 11:00pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @10:53 workin on it, I have to look up the correct names for some of the places
	11:03pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Erik abides VT @10:59 Hello! Glad you're diggin' it!
	11:06pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Star Trek" by "The Melody Four" surprised to hear that lineup produce some relatively "normal" jazz
	🥁 11:08pm WR: ↳ Song: "Star Trek" by "The Melody Four" wow, more new to me Lol Coxhill in the wild. Thank you, again, Rich.
	🥁 11:11pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Whirling Hall Of Knives" by "Butthole Surfers" Yes
	11:12pm Rich in Washington: ↳ WR @11:08 Glad you liked it. It's a fun album.
	11:12pm wendy del formaggio: I thought I heard some Butthole Surfers coming on. Yay! Whirling Hall of Knives. So good.
	11:13pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @11:12 I just picked a minty reissue of this the other day. So good.
	11:15pm wendy del formaggio: @Rich: I didn’t know it was reissued. Mmm! Minty! It really is a genius album.
	🥁 11:16pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Kat in the chat @10:50 Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours Chapel in Old Montreal, the Botanical Garden, "the mountain" Mount-Royal (do you hike?), the Plateau Mont-Royal and Mile-End area, Quartier des Spectacles, record stores the art museums (check what's on exhibit). St-Viateur Bagel & Café Mont-Royal so you can sit and eat - EFD just went there. Schwartz's Deli for smoked meat sandwich if the line isn't completely ridiculous, try going early (you won't need to eat again for quite a while).
	11:16pm Andres: ↳ Ike @10:53 Cuisine de Manille on Victoria Ave is more great eating. Fairmount, da best. Librarie Drawn and Quarterly for your comics needs. Expo 67 site. Habitat. Olympic dome. Hike the mount. Surfing in the river.
	11:18pm Andres: *Fairmount Bagel. And look up Sheena dj Otis Fodder.
	🥁 11:19pm Kat in the chat: I was supposed to meet up with Otis last time I was there, but his partner got Covid and we had to cancel.
	11:21pm Erik abides VT: ↳ Ike @10:49 Re Montréal, geesh, must be abt 10+years since I’ve revisited that wonderful city. yet agree with pot-8-o🥔, that “Cheap Thrills” record store (were 2 locations) usta be a stellar place to get weird & wonderful (WFMU type eclectic) vinyl & CDs, great used as well, etc. - not sure if they're still around. Spent some holy hunting hours there. 😁👏👏👏 Ps,etc: indeed, some incredible food to be et there. Bizarrely, had the best east coast Mexican food ever in Montréal 🤷‍♂️. Beaux-Arts center, don’t miss walking around the older sections. Lotsa circusy street performers. modern arts museum. A 360° film viewing bubble? Lots more.
	11:23pm pot8o: ↳ Erik abides VT @11:21 they're still around, but i believe it's just one location now afaik
	🥁 11:23pm Kat in the chat: Get a crepe somewhere, get some poutine somewhere, don't go too big on either one (I went to a place that served me a crepe the size of a football field)
	11:24pm wendy del formaggio: Listening to The Radio is Broken with katydids in the background. Lying on the deck looking at lights reflected in the lake. Feeling the cool night breeze. The moon is bright. I really needed this vacation and it is lovely.
	11:25pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @11:24 That does sound lovely.
	11:27pm Erik abides VT: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:16 Oh heck yea, the freakin Botanical Gardens! - apparently usta be considered second(?) to London’s botanical tourism. It’s a half day/multi hours event.
	🥁 11:27pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Erik abides VT @11:27 Yeah we were there for hours and still didn't cover all of it.
	11:29pm Ike: Wow, thanks for the ideas, y’all!
	11:30pm Ike: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:23 Reading up on the poutine places and restaurants was my only prep. I’ve been told that the trashy places have the best poutine, lol.
	🥁 11:31pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @11:29 Even the subways are nice
	11:32pm wendy del formaggio: @Rich: I wasn’t sure it could get any better. And then I changed into my pajamas.
	🥁 11:32pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @11:30 that, I don't know! Not the poutine expert.
	11:32pm ultradamno: There should be flowers capable of shooting squirt guns at tourists...the spanish heckling hyacinth
	11:33pm Ike: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:32 Yeah, I’ve heard that a grungy place called Montreal Pool Room (also serving hot dogs) is the place to go!
	🥁 11:34pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @11:33 Could be. haven't been but it sounds familiar.
	🥁 11:35pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:34 Whereabouts are you staying?
	🥁 11:35pm Kat in the chat: ^^for Ike obvs
	11:37pm Erik abides VT: ↳ pot8o @11:23 I’m so pleased & dangerously encouraged to hear/know cheap thrills is still hangin in there! - always regretted anything I sorted outta my piles of finds! And the automatic $ exchange via credit card usta be stellar. Funnily enough, re the eccentric “melody four” (incredible avant super group Not playing avant!) on great label ‘nato’ records = was often in-stock at cheap thrills!
	11:38pm wendy del formaggio: I definitely need a copy of Horse Cock Phepner.
	🥁 11:40pm WR: ↳ Ike @11:33 Ike, I recently read this about poutine places in Montreal www.bonappetit.com...
	🥁 11:41pm WR: Furries features in August! Brave!
	11:42pm wendy del formaggio: Thanks for the plug, Rich. A whole month, though?!? I better start making other Fri nite plans…
	11:42pm Rich in Washington: Hopefully I can still fit into the Biff (who is a anthropomorphic beaver) costume after nearly 23 years.
	🥁 11:43pm Kat in the chat: Why is BLOODROCK LIVE spelled out in Chee-tos?
	11:43pm wendy del formaggio: OMG I love this Bloodrock song. I don’t remember this exact intro though. Is it live?
	11:43pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "D.O.A." by "Bloodrock" I found this record in the same place that I found the crappy xtian record.
	11:43pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @11:43 Yep. Live!
	🥁 11:43pm Kat in the chat: This song really disturbed me as a young radio listener
	11:44pm ironybread: that audience applause moment must be when they revealed the giant inflated DC-10 above the stage
	11:45pm wendy del formaggio: The 70s were the golden era of Disaster Rock/Pop.
	11:45pm Laura Panic: Reminds me that I also love Dave Mandl's show.....
	11:46pm wendy del formaggio: (And now I have an idea for a future Marathon premium.)
	11:46pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Laura Panic @11:45 I do to. I rarely miss it.
	11:46pm ultradamno: Bloodrock were a band where only one earned the right to a hat www.thefinalvinyl.com...
	11:48pm wendy del formaggio: Rich, I’m almost certain the Butthole Surfers covered “DOA” live. I may have a low-fi recording at home.
	11:49pm Ike: ↳ WR @11:40 Thanks!
	11:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ wendy del formaggio @11:48 They did!
	11:51pm Ike: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:35 A slightly trashy hotel in the Quartier des Spectacles, near Chinatown.
	11:51pm ultradamno: Still lording his hat privileges, but someone got some shades to compensate blogger.googleusercontent.com...
	11:52pm wendy del formaggio: Now THIS Dead Kennedys song?! My life is right!

	11:53pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Moon Over Marin" by "Dead Kennedys" on purrely musicxal terms this is the best dead kennedys i've heard
	🥁 11:54pm Kat in the chat: ↳ ultradamno @11:51 I suspect early onset of male pattern baldness
	🥁 11:54pm Kat in the chat: Show went fast! Thanks, Rich!
	11:54pm Ike: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:52 I wish I could go hiking but I’m largely looking after my elderly parents. They’re the ones who got me into hiking in the first place, but they can’t do it much anymore. But I think we can manage the Botanical Gardens.
	🥁 11:55pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @11:54 I think there's a park at the base of the mountain!
	11:55pm coelacanth∅: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:53 the whole plastic surgeries disasters album is excellent musically (but poorly produced... a rare case of a cd reissue being better)
	11:55pm Ike: The faucet in this hotel randomly sometimes only dispenses hot water and no cold. And I’m thirsty. LOL
	11:55pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:55 thx...;)
	🥁 11:56pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Ike @11:55 Oops. Let me know how you feel about the place at the end of your stay. Airbnbs aren't what they used to be, might be looking for a cheap hotel for next stay.
	11:56pm wendy del formaggio: So glad I at least caught 90 minutes or so of your show, Rich. Yay!
	11:57pm ultradamno: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:54 I remember seeing a band where the singer lost his do-rag onstage while rocking out, revealing his shame. He seemed mortified. Slammin' Watusis, maybe. This was years after Robert Quine should have reset the expectations.
	11:58pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Rich!
	🥁 11:58pm WR: Thank you! Rich! Laters all.
	🥁 11:58pm Aitch: Thanks Rich.
	11:59pm Rich in Washington: Nighty night everyone!
	🥁 11:59pm Kat in the chat: ↳ ultradamno @11:57 Ha, I haven't thought about Slammin' Watusis in ages.
	12:00am _Ike_: Wow. I’ve never heard that clip of angry internet lady, not on FMU’s main stream anyway — understandable given all the FCC-unfriendly cursing, ha.
	🥁 12:01am Kat in the chat: ↳ _Ike_ @12:00 Ken plays a VERY edited version of the Negativland track that samples her. Edited by our own Rich, I believe.
	12:02am ironybread: Lovely show again Rick!
	12:02am ultradamno: Get the heck of the internet
	12:02am Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @12:01 I edited the fuck out of it.
	🥁 12:02am Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:02 Literally.
	12:02am _Ike_: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:02 Bwahahahahaha
	12:02am Rich in Washington: Goodnight everyone! Don't forget to tip your waitress!
