	10:17pm Mike Lupica: I'll be sure to bust out the webcam on a future show so y'alls can see this miracle of modern technology in action. (And me stumbling around in it like a jackass.)
	10:18pm Roberto: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:12 That's a taking-Tiger-Mountain strategy.

	10:47pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:46 It's OK that I laughed (in a good way) when I got to the last line, right?
	10:47pm Alex from Media: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:46 That was a good one!
	10:48pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:47 yes but it's probably at your/our expense
	10:48pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Alex from Media @10:47 thx alex...

	10:50pm Yvang: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:50 Sadly.
	10:51pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:50 A very critical record for me. I'd taped a song from it off the local college station in the 80s, never knew who the band was. Bought the record on the strength of the cover art a few years later and was floored to find the song on it. Been a fan ever since.
	10:52pm Alex from Media: YMO!
	10:52pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:51 ah, interesting...
	10:52pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @10:52 EVERYBODY DANCE NOW

	11:01pm Mike Lupica: ↳ StringOFperils @11:00 Greetings! You're just in time for the freaky deaky hip-hop song that sounds like X-Files b-roll.
	11:04pm StringOFperils: I want to believe.
	11:09pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Ugly Nasty Commie Bitch" by "Carsie Blanton" OH yes!
	11:13pm StringOFperils: I like the one with the psycho hairdresser who abducts women, draws them baths, shampoos their hair, and eventually keeps their fingers in the freezer. That one was inspired.
	11:18pm Erik/VT: ↳ Song: "Ugly Nasty Commie Bitch" by "Carsie Blanton" Oh yes indeed! Attended 3 Carsie Blanton shows & imo she is well worth the commitment in-person! Alive & Direct & Funny Sexy Smart! Let’s her thoughts & opinions Fly!

	11:19pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Do It!" by "Pink Fairies" 🤘🤘🤘🤘
	11:20pm Alex from Media: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:19 Already dropped it in my social media feed.
	11:20pm tom tom the pipers son: this is what is called hippie noise
	11:21pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:20 Andy Breckman would surely approve.
	11:23pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "Help Me, I'm Gay" by "Lambrini Girls" A spin off to "Gay Bar"?
	11:24pm Roberto: I think the Mets have gone about 18 straight innings without scoring. Maybe this will be the one.
	11:25pm tom tom the pipers son: @ mike: got any poison girls...?
	11:26pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:25 Next week!
	11:29pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Very Much My Promise To You" by "Moon Diagrams" This has a massive Disintegration-like sound. Like it.
	11:31pm Roberto: ↳ Roberto @11:24 Nope.
	11:34pm tom tom the pipers son: a rock block....!
	11:36pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:34 Very much so! And the teenager is here with me, to join in the next mic break.
	11:36pm Erik/VT: ↳ Song: "Poison in a Pretty Pill" by "Crass" -1981 as a 16 year old was abit nervous bringing Crass’ penis envy to the cash register… it ALL worked out just fine! Especially after the shrinkwrap was removed … 😜
	11:37pm Roberto: Mike, you're a New York sports writer. What's your take on this current slump?
	11:37pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @11:37 Different Mike Lupica, sorry!
	11:38pm Roberto: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:37 There's more than one? Trippy.
	11:38pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:36 was thiunking...another show you may want to try out on your daughter is "night stalker" with darren mcgavin. it is to early 70's what xfiles is to 90's....though i wonder if it holds up or it would just be too ancient for her to enjoy
	11:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:36 nice...!
	11:42pm tom tom the pipers son: Not NYT Junk Poetry That Drone in the Sky Is Convicted of Spying on Sadness Among Teen Girls As Ancient Hobbit Humans Turned Up Their Noses and Fled Just Ahead of a Storm’s Destruction
	11:43pm Pauly from Clifton: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:38 tom tom, I remember that series and, aside from being dated, I thinks it would hold up. The story lines and acting are good.
	11:44pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Pauly from Clifton @11:43 u huh....a dan curtis product...
	11:47pm maryam: hii

	11:55pm tom tom the pipers son: name for this genre is "ye ye" or something like that

	12:02am Mike Lupica: Thanks for stopping by, Maryam!
	12:02am Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @11:54 Whew!
	12:03am Pauly from Clifton: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:55 A testament to what good storytelling can do without fx.
	12:04am rowan: Hello again
	12:05am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Pauly from Clifton @12:03 well you have val lewton as well to prove that but perhaps that's more because of vg visuals
	12:05am rowan: I may not be on the air now but I’m alive in the comments💪
	12:05am ?: hi
	12:06am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ rowan @12:05 ha!
	12:06am maryam: ↳ rowan @12:05 hi

	12:08am serena: hi
	12:08am Erik/VT: ↳ Song: "Los Navegantes" by "Hermanos Gutiérrez" Fabu!👏 - I never expected to hear or know I needed a Latin-esque Durutti Column
	12:08am Mike Lupica: Looks like we have a high school kid chat takeover. Best behavior, everybody.
	12:08am maryam: hi serena
	12:09am serena: heyyyy
	12:09am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:08 was just going to comment on that
	12:09am rowan: guys stopp
	12:10am Mike Lupica: ↳ rowan @12:09 LOL
	12:12am rowan: No…that’s okay Dad. We don’t need any text dialogue.
	12:12am Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:00 I like to think that if I still lived NYC local, I'd go see them every Tuesday night at some dirty bar down the street from my apartment.
	12:13am Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Conta I Passi La Lepre" by "Porta d'Oro" Can we get a youth vote on the music?
	12:14am Pauly from Clifton: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:12 Ah...the good ol' days...Alphabet City...
	12:14am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:12 i think they're onto bigger things
	12:15am Yvang: ↳ Song: "Numb" by "Julia-Sophie" Asmr
	12:16am Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:14 Deservedly so... but I can still dream, right?
	12:17am Erik/VT: ↳ Song: "Taboo" by "Xavier Cugat" Inherited this album from my father’s collection. Among others of this ilk via the craze of the 50s/60s.
	12:17am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:16 absolutely...
	12:17am Mike Lupica: ↳ Erik/VT @12:17 I love his swanky/sultry stuff. Recently watched an episode of "What's my Line" w/ him and it was utterly bizarre.
	12:18am tom tom the pipers son: y'know cugat's wife was charo...
	12:19am Yvang: ↳ Erik/VT @12:17 Reading his bio on Wikipedia : A tumultuous life!
	12:20am Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:18 WAIT, WHUT???
	12:21am Pauly from Clifton: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:18 Charo was Cugat's wife??? Damn, wasn't that some age difference?
	12:23am tom tom the pipers son: 66-78....before that abbe lane who was quite a looker
	12:24am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:23 age diff w/ lane was thirty years
	12:25am Erik/VT: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:17 Charro!? (Wow)…: “Jeopardy question”: who was John Charles Patrick Croghan Daly? I gotta check more of those shows out - along with those old Groucho Marx hosted “you bet your life”.
	12:25am tom tom the pipers son: 51 yrs diff w/ charo
	12:26am tom tom the pipers son: surprised to see that charo is 73
	12:27am Pauly from Clifton: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:25 Also looked at his wiki page...he was a busy dude.
	12:27am Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Mind Games" by "John Lennon" 🕯️🕯️🕯️
	12:27am Roberto: ↳ Song: "Mind Games" by "John Lennon" Oof, I can't help thinking of Kevin Spacey singing this at some benefit for NYC not long after 9/11.
	12:28am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Roberto @12:27 that goes in the hbo biopic
	12:28am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @12:27 Sorry, John, you deserved better!
	12:30am Roberto: ↳ Song: "Taste of Snakes" by "Jimmy Carl Black" The Indian in the group?
	12:31am tom tom the pipers son: remember an interview w/ jimmy carl black where he said frank was smart but couldn't hold a candle to don
	12:32am Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @12:27 Oh god, that sounds dreadful. I don't talk about this much, but as someone who was A) around the corner from the Dakota on the night Lennon was murdered (I was 8), AND B) a 9/11 first responder who walked through the rubble and devastation in downtown NYC, this offends me on multiple levels.
	12:32am Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @12:30 Yep!
	12:32am Roberto: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:32 EEEEsh!
	12:35am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @12:30 Oops, I meant OF the group.
	12:36am tom tom the pipers son: wow mike that was an unfortunate comments confluence
	12:37am tom tom the pipers son: i'm going to post one last poem...
	12:38am Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:36 Weird memory and formative childhood experience, for sure. One of my most vivid memories is seeing the squad car speed past us as my dad yanked me away from the curb. Lennon was slumped against the window in the back seat.
	12:38am tom tom the pipers son: Not NYT Junk Poetry A Toddler Tantrum Seems Almost Like Prophecy as Warm Air and Warm Oceans Power Storms Amid Clashes In a Stock Market Drama Over Consumers Turning Cautious And A Psychiatrist Craving The Talent, Glamour, Money Of A Gamer Capturing the Split Seconds Between Victory and Defeat and Coming to Broadway
	12:39am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:38 yes that is very vivid
	12:40am Roberto: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:38 HoLy sHiT!
	12:42am Pauly from Clifton: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:38 OMG.
	12:42am Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @12:40 I think it's why I've always had an awkward relationship with the Beatles. The only record we had by them when I was growing up was "Let it Be", and the combo of the eulogistic tone of the title track and the memory of being front and center for Lennon's death set me on an uneasy path with them right out of the gate.
	12:43am Alex from Media: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:38 That's a helluva thing for a kid to see.
	12:45am Erik/VT: Randomly: Xavier Cugat was regularly seen with & promoted the Chihuahua dog breed - lending to their popularity.
	12:46am Roberto: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:42 My dad had the White Album and Abbey Road in his collection. When I asked him why, since he wasn't generally a fan of rock music, he said he just wanted to see what all the fuss was about.
	12:47am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @12:46 After a listening or two, he concluded all the fuss was about nothing.
	12:47am Erik/VT: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:38 Hard for my brain to wrap around this childhood / celebrity experience. Whoa. 😔
	12:47am Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @12:46 Perfectly valid reason to go to the record store. I could use the same reasoning to justify why I have records by any number of bands.
	12:48am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @12:47 After countless listenings of my own, I came to a very different conclusion.
	12:54am Roberto: File under Time Flies: the time that has elapsed since 9/11 is longer than the time between John's death and 9/11.
	12:54am tom tom the pipers son: thanks mike, poetry kinda fell flat.... try again next time
	12:55am Alex from Media: Bangin show tonight Mike. Thanks!
	12:55am Chop Scott: Bravo Mike-thank you & Cheers!!
	12:55am Erik/VT: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:38 - another fun skeletal summary of the weeks events in creative form. 👏🥇👏
	12:55am Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:54 Not at all! It's much appreciated! Please keep sharin'...
	12:56am Yvang: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:54 I dig your poems Tom Tom!
	12:56am Alex from Media: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:54 I think it was overtaken by events.
	12:56am tom tom the pipers son: thanks guys...
	12:56am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Alex from Media @12:56 yes...
	12:57am Roberto: ↳ Song: "End Credits" by "Michael Boddicker" Hmm...and Clarence Boddicker was Peter Weller's nemesis in Robocop. Coincidence?
	12:59am Pauly from Clifton: Mike, that was the shit in the 80s! Russian Tea Room. Nice!
	1:01am Roberto: Oy vey this story. Chilling.
	1:01am Yvang: I am glad the squad car did not kill you the day Lennon was shot!
	1:02am Yvang: Thanks Mike!
	1:03am Pauly from Clifton: Thanks Mike, crew! Have a great tomorrow! Or today.
	1:03am Mike Lupica: Peas out, pitcrew. See ya next week!

	10:05pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @10:05 SATURDAY NIGHT PITCREW ALWAYS ACCEPTING NEW MEMBERS.

	10:06pm Yvang: ↳ Pauly from Clifton @10:05 Hi Pauly!
	10:09pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Song: "Backwater" by "Brian Eno" Just noticing that Eno's studio in the accompanying gif looks weirdly like the Starlite Lounge.
	10:11pm Yvang: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:09 Reel to reel tape party!
	10:12pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:09 is that an oblique strategy..."make your studio like eno's"?

	10:15pm Mike Lupica: I lack a reel-to-reel in here but there are three computers, two turntables, a cassette deck, and an air raid siren. I feel like I could take Eno to the mat.
	10:17pm Mike Lupica: I'll be sure to bust out the webcam on a future show so y'alls can see this miracle of modern technology in action. (And me stumbling around in it like a jackass.)
	10:18pm Roberto: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:12 That's a taking-Tiger-Mountain strategy.
	10:18pm Alex from Media: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:15 Please set off the siren for us Mike! Puh leeeeze!

	10:47pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:46 It's OK that I laughed (in a good way) when I got to the last line, right?
	10:47pm Alex from Media: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:46 That was a good one!
	10:48pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:47 yes but it's probably at your/our expense
	10:48pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Alex from Media @10:47 thx alex...

	10:50pm Yvang: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:50 Sadly.
	10:51pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:50 A very critical record for me. I'd taped a song from it off the local college station in the 80s, never knew who the band was. Bought the record on the strength of the cover art a few years later and was floored to find the song on it. Been a fan ever since.
	10:52pm Alex from Media: YMO!
	10:52pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:51 ah, interesting...

	11:01pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Wipe Out" by "Spectre" I do love me some bass.
	11:01pm Mike Lupica: ↳ StringOFperils @11:00 Greetings! You're just in time for the freaky deaky hip-hop song that sounds like X-Files b-roll.
	11:04pm StringOFperils: I want to believe.
	11:09pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Ugly Nasty Commie Bitch" by "Carsie Blanton" OH yes!
	11:13pm StringOFperils: I like the one with the psycho hairdresser who abducts women, draws them baths, shampoos their hair, and eventually keeps their fingers in the freezer. That one was inspired.
	11:18pm Erik/VT: ↳ Song: "Ugly Nasty Commie Bitch" by "Carsie Blanton" Oh yes indeed! Attended 3 Carsie Blanton shows & imo she is well worth the commitment in-person! Alive & Direct & Funny Sexy Smart! Let’s her thoughts & opinions Fly!

	11:19pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Do It!" by "Pink Fairies" 🤘🤘🤘🤘
	11:20pm Alex from Media: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:19 Already dropped it in my social media feed.
	11:20pm tom tom the pipers son: this is what is called hippie noise
	11:21pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:20 Andy Breckman would surely approve.
	11:23pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "Help Me, I'm Gay" by "Lambrini Girls" A spin off to "Gay Bar"?
	11:24pm Roberto: I think the Mets have gone about 18 straight innings without scoring. Maybe this will be the one.
	11:25pm tom tom the pipers son: @ mike: got any poison girls...?
	11:26pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:25 Next week!
	11:29pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Very Much My Promise To You" by "Moon Diagrams" This has a massive Disintegration-like sound. Like it.
	11:31pm Roberto: ↳ Roberto @11:24 Nope.
	11:34pm tom tom the pipers son: a rock block....!
	11:36pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:34 Very much so! And the teenager is here with me, to join in the next mic break.
	11:36pm Erik/VT: ↳ Song: "Poison in a Pretty Pill" by "Crass" -1981 as a 16 year old was abit nervous bringing Crass’ penis envy to the cash register… it ALL worked out just fine! Especially after the shrinkwrap was removed … 😜
	11:37pm Roberto: Mike, you're a New York sports writer. What's your take on this current slump?
	11:37pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @11:37 Different Mike Lupica, sorry!
	11:38pm Roberto: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:37 There's more than one? Trippy.
	11:38pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:36 was thiunking...another show you may want to try out on your daughter is "night stalker" with darren mcgavin. it is to early 70's what xfiles is to 90's....though i wonder if it holds up or it would just be too ancient for her to enjoy
	11:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:36 nice...!
	11:42pm tom tom the pipers son: Not NYT Junk Poetry That Drone in the Sky Is Convicted of Spying on Sadness Among Teen Girls As Ancient Hobbit Humans Turned Up Their Noses and Fled Just Ahead of a Storm’s Destruction
	11:43pm Pauly from Clifton: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:38 tom tom, I remember that series and, aside from being dated, I thinks it would hold up. The story lines and acting are good.
	11:44pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Pauly from Clifton @11:43 u huh....a dan curtis product...

	12:02am Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @11:54 Whew!
	12:03am Pauly from Clifton: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:55 A testament to what good storytelling can do without fx.
	12:04am rowan: Hello again
	12:05am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Pauly from Clifton @12:03 well you have val lewton as well to prove that but perhaps that's more because of vg visuals
	12:05am rowan: I may not be on the air now but I’m alive in the comments💪
	12:05am ?: hi

	12:08am Mike Lupica: Looks like we have a high school kid chat takeover. Best behavior, everybody.
	12:08am maryam: hi serena
	12:09am serena: heyyyy

	12:10am Mike Lupica: ↳ rowan @12:09 LOL
	12:12am rowan: No…that’s okay Dad. We don’t need any text dialogue.
	12:12am Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:00 I like to think that if I still lived NYC local, I'd go see them every Tuesday night at some dirty bar down the street from my apartment.
	12:13am Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Conta I Passi La Lepre" by "Porta d'Oro" Can we get a youth vote on the music?
	12:14am Pauly from Clifton: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:12 Ah...the good ol' days...Alphabet City...
	12:14am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:12 i think they're onto bigger things
	12:15am Yvang: ↳ Song: "Numb" by "Julia-Sophie" Asmr
	12:16am Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:14 Deservedly so... but I can still dream, right?
	12:17am Erik/VT: ↳ Song: "Taboo" by "Xavier Cugat" Inherited this album from my father’s collection. Among others of this ilk via the craze of the 50s/60s.
	12:17am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:16 absolutely...
	12:17am Mike Lupica: ↳ Erik/VT @12:17 I love his swanky/sultry stuff. Recently watched an episode of "What's my Line" w/ him and it was utterly bizarre.
	12:18am tom tom the pipers son: y'know cugat's wife was charo...
	12:19am Yvang: ↳ Erik/VT @12:17 Reading his bio on Wikipedia : A tumultuous life!
	12:20am Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:18 WAIT, WHUT???
	12:21am Pauly from Clifton: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:18 Charo was Cugat's wife??? Damn, wasn't that some age difference?
	12:23am tom tom the pipers son: 66-78....before that abbe lane who was quite a looker
	12:24am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:23 age diff w/ lane was thirty years
	12:25am Erik/VT: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:17 Charro!? (Wow)…: “Jeopardy question”: who was John Charles Patrick Croghan Daly? I gotta check more of those shows out - along with those old Groucho Marx hosted “you bet your life”.
	12:25am tom tom the pipers son: 51 yrs diff w/ charo
	12:26am tom tom the pipers son: surprised to see that charo is 73
	12:27am Pauly from Clifton: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:25 Also looked at his wiki page...he was a busy dude.
	12:27am Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Mind Games" by "John Lennon" 🕯️🕯️🕯️
	12:27am Roberto: ↳ Song: "Mind Games" by "John Lennon" Oof, I can't help thinking of Kevin Spacey singing this at some benefit for NYC not long after 9/11.
	12:28am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Roberto @12:27 that goes in the hbo biopic
	12:28am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @12:27 Sorry, John, you deserved better!
	12:30am Roberto: ↳ Song: "Taste of Snakes" by "Jimmy Carl Black" The Indian in the group?
	12:31am tom tom the pipers son: remember an interview w/ jimmy carl black where he said frank was smart but couldn't hold a candle to don
	12:32am Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @12:27 Oh god, that sounds dreadful. I don't talk about this much, but as someone who was A) around the corner from the Dakota on the night Lennon was murdered (I was 8), AND B) a 9/11 first responder who walked through the rubble and devastation in downtown NYC, this offends me on multiple levels.
	12:32am Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @12:30 Yep!
	12:32am Roberto: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:32 EEEEsh!
	12:35am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @12:30 Oops, I meant OF the group.
	12:36am tom tom the pipers son: wow mike that was an unfortunate comments confluence
	12:37am tom tom the pipers son: i'm going to post one last poem...
	12:38am Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:36 Weird memory and formative childhood experience, for sure. One of my most vivid memories is seeing the squad car speed past us as my dad yanked me away from the curb. Lennon was slumped against the window in the back seat.
	12:38am tom tom the pipers son: Not NYT Junk Poetry A Toddler Tantrum Seems Almost Like Prophecy as Warm Air and Warm Oceans Power Storms Amid Clashes In a Stock Market Drama Over Consumers Turning Cautious And A Psychiatrist Craving The Talent, Glamour, Money Of A Gamer Capturing the Split Seconds Between Victory and Defeat and Coming to Broadway
	12:39am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:38 yes that is very vivid
	12:40am Roberto: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:38 HoLy sHiT!
	12:42am Pauly from Clifton: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:38 OMG.
	12:42am Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @12:40 I think it's why I've always had an awkward relationship with the Beatles. The only record we had by them when I was growing up was "Let it Be", and the combo of the eulogistic tone of the title track and the memory of being front and center for Lennon's death set me on an uneasy path with them right out of the gate.
	12:43am Alex from Media: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:38 That's a helluva thing for a kid to see.
	12:45am Erik/VT: Randomly: Xavier Cugat was regularly seen with & promoted the Chihuahua dog breed - lending to their popularity.
	12:46am Roberto: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:42 My dad had the White Album and Abbey Road in his collection. When I asked him why, since he wasn't generally a fan of rock music, he said he just wanted to see what all the fuss was about.
	12:47am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @12:46 After a listening or two, he concluded all the fuss was about nothing.
	12:47am Erik/VT: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:38 Hard for my brain to wrap around this childhood / celebrity experience. Whoa. 😔
	12:47am Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @12:46 Perfectly valid reason to go to the record store. I could use the same reasoning to justify why I have records by any number of bands.
	12:48am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @12:47 After countless listenings of my own, I came to a very different conclusion.
	12:54am Roberto: File under Time Flies: the time that has elapsed since 9/11 is longer than the time between John's death and 9/11.
	12:54am tom tom the pipers son: thanks mike, poetry kinda fell flat.... try again next time
	12:55am Alex from Media: Bangin show tonight Mike. Thanks!
	12:55am Chop Scott: Bravo Mike-thank you & Cheers!!
	12:55am Erik/VT: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:38 - another fun skeletal summary of the weeks events in creative form. 👏🥇👏
	12:55am Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:54 Not at all! It's much appreciated! Please keep sharin'...
	12:56am Yvang: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:54 I dig your poems Tom Tom!
	12:56am Alex from Media: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:54 I think it was overtaken by events.
	12:56am tom tom the pipers son: thanks guys...
	12:56am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Alex from Media @12:56 yes...
	12:57am Roberto: ↳ Song: "End Credits" by "Michael Boddicker" Hmm...and Clarence Boddicker was Peter Weller's nemesis in Robocop. Coincidence?
	12:59am Pauly from Clifton: Mike, that was the shit in the 80s! Russian Tea Room. Nice!
	1:01am Roberto: Oy vey this story. Chilling.
	1:01am Yvang: I am glad the squad car did not kill you the day Lennon was shot!
	1:02am Yvang: Thanks Mike!
	1:03am Pauly from Clifton: Thanks Mike, crew! Have a great tomorrow! Or today.
	1:03am Mike Lupica: Peas out, pitcrew. See ya next week!
