Listener comments!
	8:02pm ultradamno: Becky! Tonkies!
	8:03pm Handy Haversack: Becky! Tonkers!
	8:03pm DanFA: Howdy Becky. Handy. Ultradamno
	8:03pm loveless: Howdy all.
	8:04pm ultradamno: Hiya Dan
	8:05pm ultradamno: mastodon.social...
	8:05pm ultradamno: mastodon.social... OBS mastodon.social...
	8:06pm DanFA: ↳ ultradamno @8:05 Bring back space-themed country music.
	8:06pm ultradamno: Belgium's Jokers are worth looking into also mastodon.social...
	8:10pm Becky: Howdy folks! True confessions: I used to think the lyrics of this Patsy song said that the devil was hunting for bear.
	8:11pm ultradamno: The RFK jr story
	8:11pm Becky: By the way, I'm headed to Toronto tomorrow for a long weekend to see some friends but have a ton of free time. What should I do?
	8:13pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @8:11 www.independent.co.uk...
	8:14pm DanFA: ↳ Becky @8:11 Chinatown is pretty fun, as I recall, but that was 15 years ago.
	8:16pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Becky @8:11 I don't see any of our Ontario pals on the chat this evening. I've never been to Toronto. But it seems like there has to be a music scene. There's definitely a canoeing scene, which I'd be all over. The National Canoeing Museum is nearby in Peterborough.
	8:16pm ultradamno: Babs and Derek, of Sheena's Echo Beach are up there, might ask them... wfmu.org...
	8:18pm DanFA: Greetings listeners 20 years in the future. We're sorry.
	8:19pm Audiocarp: I tuned in a little late and missed Webb pierce. Damn!
	8:19pm P-90!: I’m listening 20 years from now and it’s been a swell show so far
	8:19pm Destroit: Hey hey everyone. Hi Becky. Been to Toronto a couple times, but its been too long to offer suggestions. Last time there was for Toronto film festival so we kinda stuck to movies and food
	8:19pm Becky: ↳ P-90! @8:19 I always knew you were clairvoyant.
	8:20pm goes211: Honestly not sure I even understand that statement.
	8:21pm DanFA: Yeah, sure. Johnny Cash (Ballad of Ira Hayes about Native Americans), Loretta Lynn (The Pill about birth control) would never have careers because of "wokeness."
	8:21pm Audiocarp: You have to be Clairvoyant
	8:21pm ultradamno: Sounds like nonsense. Cash was woke, Wille is, Waylon was his friend, so he could exist....just crybaby nonsense from someone who hates being challenged to pull his head out of his ass.
	8:22pm Handy Haversack: Important to remember that "woke" is totally misused -- co-opted would be a better word: www.refinery29.com... And there is no war but the class war. Anyone who rightfully sides with the workers against the bosses must, must -- a priori -- be antiracist. And it sure seems to me that some of the country greats would side against the bosses.
	8:22pm DanFA: Not surprised at which country musician Becky is referring to.
	8:23pm Audiocarp: ↳ DanFA @8:21 Loretta Lynn has an album called on the warpath where she’s dressed like an Indian with makeup darkening her skin!
	8:23pm ultradamno: If wokeness made anyone go away, I wouldn't know every stray thought JK Rowling has to say...
	8:24pm ron-ji: Johnny was easily the most “Woke” country performer of the late 60s & early 70s—at his most mainstream popularity, in fact! Entire albums devoted to prisoners’ issues, indigenous people, the anti-war movemet, labor … And his hit TV show was unashamedly left-leaning in weekly travelogue segments.
	8:25pm DanFA: ↳ ultradamno @8:23 She might be in a spot of legal trouble based on her Olympics tweets.
	8:26pm ultradamno: Saw that, Elon and whichever one of those horrible brothers that went to the suicide forest to stream himself poking a corpse.
	8:26pm Audiocarp: The spotnicks sound cool
	8:27pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @8:26 ...also
	8:27pm Audiocarp: ↳ ultradamno @8:26 Suicide forest?
	8:27pm quietlife: I happen to have a time traveling app still in development, but trials reveal, and tho I can’t say a lot about it, …still, am glad to say that these musical chestnuts’ll hold up real well
	8:28pm ultradamno: ↳ Audiocarp @8:27 Yep. Aokigahara
	8:28pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @8:28 archive.org...
	8:29pm Audiocarp: ↳ ultradamno @8:28 What’s the world coming to if you can’t poke a dead girl in the woods?
	8:30pm ultradamno: So you went from zero to opinion in two minutes.
	8:30pm DanFA: ↳ Audiocarp @8:29 Bro, like, I didn't know that was offensive. I was just like, this is so messed up, you know.
	8:31pm ron-ji: A few years ago the MAGA crowd was totally shocked when Willie Nelson expressed a mildly liberal opinion about state or national politics, as if it was some huge betrayal. I was dumbfounded by their surprise: Had they paid NO attention to ANYTHING their buddy has said/done/sung for the last half century?
	8:32pm ultradamno: He's going to fight Mike Tyson soon, so...you don't need a forest.
	8:32pm Audiocarp: ↳ DanFA @8:30 Asleep, dead, not much difference
	8:34pm Audiocarp: ↳ ron-ji @8:31 That’s the weird thing about outlaw country: you can express all kinds of anti-boss and individualistic rhetoric, but don’t say anything bad about the government
	8:36pm DanFA: If anyone has not seen Ms. Lynn host the Muppet Show, you simply must. Treat yourself. I think she performs this with the Muppets.
	8:37pm Audiocarp: Then you have the guys who to dismantle the government, but get upset if you criticize the FBI, the military or foreign policy
	8:38pm Deano de los Muertos: Howdy Becky 🤠 sorry I’m late. Was down in Asbury unexpectedly meeting Glen Jones
	8:38pm Becky: ↳ DanFA @8:36 Oh, it's fantastic.
	8:39pm ultradamno: ↳ DanFA @8:36 I've mentioned this before, but there is a muppets video of "The Ratler Brothers" covering Flowers On The Wall starring Beaker on You Tube that is just great
	8:39pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @8:38 Life happens, don't it, Deano.
	8:39pm ron-ji: Just the other day I was listening to Charlie Daniels’s first (?) Top 40 hit, “Uneasy Rider,” in which he is the long haired leftist hippie narrator who pretends to be a redneck in a terrifying bar filled with right-wingers. At least that’s where it STARTS. A doctoral dissertation in Cultural Studies / Identity Politics waiting to be written.
	8:39pm DanFA: ↳ Becky @8:38 I especially enjoy her performance of Oh Lonesome Me with dog muppets.
	8:39pm Mike Lewis: Awesome
	8:40pm ultradamno: ↳ ron-ji @8:39 At last check he still tweets about Benghazi
	8:40pm DanFA: ↳ ultradamno @8:39 I gotta check that out. Thanks.
	8:40pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Ping Pong" by "Dolly Parton" This was the song that opened diplomatic relations with China, right?
	8:42pm Audiocarp: ↳ ultradamno @8:40 And old vets are still talking about Hanoi Jane, over 50 years later
	8:42pm Handy Haversack: ↳ ron-ji @8:39 I think I last heard that on Ken's show, but I can't check because for some reason they had "throttle back" searches and now you can't do archive searches if you use a VPN.
	8:44pm Audiocarp: They remember she protested the war and forget she co-starred with Jon Voight in Coming home. The first film to deal with returning Vietnam vets
	8:45pm ron-ji: Ultra, I thought Charlie died a little while ago? I should probably have taken 2 seconds to fact check that first, but what fun would that be? Misinformation ain’t gonna spread itself, ya know. Anyway, IS he still alive? (No surprise he would end up a Benghazi-ite at any rate. That’s part of what makes “Uneasy” even more layered than it was in its day.)
	8:45pm P-90!: Honestly, who’s more “woke” than JohnnyCash? Except maybe Dolly Parton? The whole “woke” dialogue just gets dumber and dumber imho…
	8:46pm ultradamno: ↳ ron-ji @8:45 He did, and never stopped tweeting.
	8:47pm Audiocarp: ↳ ron-ji @8:45 Died in 2020 at age 83
	8:47pm ultradamno: 11 hours ago "Benghazi ain't goin' away" x.com...
	8:48pm Audiocarp: ↳ ultradamno @8:47 I’m boycotting X
	8:48pm ultradamno: Gee, I'm out of medals
	8:49pm Speedo Gonzalez: Hi Becky! hi all! the mighty Spotnicks on!
	8:50pm Audiocarp: ↳ ultradamno @8:47 My conscience won’t let me support Elon musk
	8:50pm Becky: I'm so happy that in the span of two weeks, the Spotnicks are a full-on institution on the HTRG program. Going to see if I can find more records in Toronto!
	8:50pm ultradamno: Again, all of out of medals Stagger Lee vs Bad Bad Leroy Brown x.com...
	8:50pm ScottinDenver: Hey! I am in Denver!
	8:51pm Handy Haversack: ↳ ScottinDenver @8:50 Keep an eye out for Ray! Sounds like he should be there soon!
	8:51pm Audiocarp: ↳ ultradamno @8:50 Skip the medal, I’ll take your praise
	8:52pm Becky: ↳ ScottinDenver @8:50 That one was for you, Scott!
	8:52pm ultradamno: ↳ Audiocarp @8:51 How do you keep a moron in suspense....
	8:53pm Audiocarp: ↳ ultradamno @8:52 Oh, I know this one!
	8:53pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Becky! Got you a matchbook from another local bar. Will hand off in September. K8 and I are hitting the American road tomorrow for a couple weeks. Might miss the next couple of shows -- or maybe we'll be in for the evenings and catch youse then!
	8:54pm ultradamno: Soon, soon.
	8:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Becky. Have a good week.
	8:58pm ultradamno: ↳ Becky @8:50 I'm thrilled to see it happening, myself
	9:00pm ron-ji: Great episode! Loved the conversation here too!
	9:02pm P-90!: Thanks!
	9:02pm Audiocarp: Very enjoyable Program, Becky!
	9:09pm Mike Lewis: You do you very well. This is an awesome mix!!
