Listener comments!
	3:06pm ?: Fabio and all pseudo failures a pleasant good afternoon
	3:06pm captain beef fart: The Failure of Flatulence
	3:06pm Handy Haversack: Fabio! Failsafes! The Failure of Membranes
	👻 3:07pm Ken From Hyde Park: You can fail if you try!
	👻 3:07pm Bruce S.: hey Fabs and Fabulous folks!
	3:08pm chresti: Hi Fabio and double time fun lovers!!
	3:09pm βrian: Has the evil giant been slain yet?
	3:10pm Lewis: now play it backwards...
	3:12pm captain beef fart: ↳ captain beef fart @3:06 I suppose that'd be a shart (I'll save the toilet humor for Ken's show)
	👻 3:12pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: HI HO. Weekly meeting got pushed up by a bit so I was actually able to make the intro this week...yay!
	👻 3:13pm Bas NL: Hello Fabio! Hello fail-safes!
	👻 3:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @3:12 UNO reverse failure card!
	👻 3:13pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Who has carrot cake?
	👻 3:13pm Bruce S.: getting into the election, I find politics kind of interesting at the moment
	3:14pm chresti: When I first heard the term “under my skin” when I was around 11, I thought it meant something dirty
	👻 3:14pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Bonus clicky-star for the Organum. A fine return to th'streams after 2 weeks wandering the stinking desert.
	👻 3:14pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ Rev. Turnip Druid @3:13 Believe it or not, my local bakery STOPPED making "loaf style" carrot cake and now only has the fancy frosted 3 layer kind. They sell other loaf cakes by the slice, including very good fruitcake, but my cries for a carrot cake comeback have fallen on deaf ears. Once in a blue moon they'll do carrot cake muffins but not qute the same.
	3:15pm chresti: In Reality by J.O. Mallander (More Time - Hits & Variations 1968-1970) ⭐️⭐️⭐️
	👻 3:15pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ Rev. Turnip Druid @3:13 They also sometimes do carrot cake cupcakes...hm...that's a thought.
	👻 3:16pm Bruce S.: nothing like a cold piece of moist carrot cake,with frosting
	👻 3:19pm Bruce S.: cry for a carrot cake
	3:19pm βrian: I'm more of a lemon-almond tea cake kind of a person. Very dense, not too sweet, and a bright lemony flavor.
	3:21pm βrian: ↳ Song: "Renunciate" by "Organum" Origanum would be more thymely.
	👻 3:21pm Crosby in KC: hello, Fabio and all
	3:21pm captain beef fart: Lemon-Ups are my new favorite Girl Scout cookie.
	👻 3:22pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @3:14 yeh, multi-layer carrot-cakes are a bit too bourgeois, no longer a CAKE OF THE PEOPLE. Sad to see this most holy foodstuff become a bludgeon in the class war...
	👻 3:23pm Bruce S.: join the Avengers as they battle the amazeing powers of ...Organum
	👻 3:23pm chresti: coconut macaroons ftw!
	3:24pm βrian: Where do you fall on raisins in your carrot cake? And would you soak it in dark rum before serving?
	3:24pm captain beef fart: ↳ Rev. Turnip Druid @3:22 If I were to be bludgeoned, carrot cake would be an acceptable implement.
	3:25pm nic: love Organum !!!
	3:26pm captain beef fart: ↳ βrian @3:24 Raisins in moderation and, yes, soak the cake in dark rum before serving.
	3:27pm Krull Sagan: Late to Fail, but Failing with y’inz nonetheless! Happy hellraising to All Thee Strong Ones
	3:27pm Krull Sagan: And all of us Failing at Strength
	👻 3:27pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Hello, Fabio and all!
	👻 3:30pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ↳ βrian @3:24 Raisins are permitted as long as the whole thing isn't too sweet. A decent carrot cake should have chunks of whatnot in it (nuts, etc), not just soulless awful brown puffball cake-fakery. It should be like wood, man, it needs MATTER! .. suddenly waking up and i'm shouting in the street, haven't answered the question. Coming inside now...
	👻 3:34pm Bruce S.: I don.t think I dig a carrot cake with raisins,sounds to sweet
	3:36pm Hubig Pie: Pee-cans and/or walnuts, golden raisins, shards of carrots and cream cheese topper = my ideal carrot cake
	3:38pm bobobobob Plasticland: I think William Parker and Evan Parker should record together...LP could be called... Monopoly by Parker Brothers
	3:39pm tangopa: @Krull Sagan - my mind is open and ready to receiveth
	👻 3:40pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ↳ Bruce S. @3:34 my instinct says the same, but as long as it's in balance with not-sweet stuff, hell, anything is possible. As long as we put an end to the soul-less over-sweet puffball cake-fakery, there's hope in this dark world.
	👻 3:46pm Bruce S.: I watched a great double feature of taped movies the other night, started with out of the past, man if you care anything about film Noir you must see out of the past before you die
	👻 3:48pm Bruce S.: Followed that up with Tropic Thundar, a really hilarious movie, every one is great in it especially Robert Downey Jr and Tom Cruise
	3:48pm nic: love this!!!
	👻 3:52pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Song: "The Lure of the Mine" by "Colin Stetson" interview with Colin Stetson on Morricone Island back in 2020 - www.wfmu.org...
	👻 3:53pm Bruce S.: Tom Cruise Says AS always FUCK YOU
	👻 3:54pm chris in the redwoods: hello, Fabio. digging the tunes here. hello, all, and a slightly uncomfortably large slice of carrot cake to those who partake.
	3:56pm Reno D: Shades of House on the Hill, by Audience. Well, before this vocal.
	3:58pm spodiodi: Greetings, Fabio and all!!
	3:59pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): Wow I need to go back to this release from Colin.
	3:59pm Ike: ↳ Song: "The Lure of the Mine" by "Colin Stetson" We volunteers all agree this is a banger.
	👻 4:00pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Ike @3:59 thank you all for your service! <3
	4:01pm chresti: Now I want a soulless puffball cake
	4:01pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Ike @3:59 Missed you by a day, Ike!
	4:01pm Krull Sagan: ↳ tangopa @3:39 Kiss your tall housemate for me tangopa!
	4:02pm tangopa: ↳ Krull Sagan @4:01 I do it.
	4:03pm yippie: wow fabio its totally awesome that you are etruscan, i never knew that before
	👻 4:04pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Rev. Turnip Druid @3:30 The failure of store-bought bread these days is that all the selections are fluffy like wedding cake without the sweeteners. Does not make a desirable sandwich.
	4:06pm Joe: Does anyone know the song in the background in the first part of the interview?
	👻 4:07pm Bruce S.: Fabio playing Peter Gun great
	4:13pm Krull Sagan: Ha! Osman Spare- Genesis P.O. is nodding from the other plane
	4:14pm WM: i heard Borbetomagus a long time ago at the old knitting factory. my ears are still ringing.
	4:15pm Avspuk: Glyphs? Runes?
	👻 4:21pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Back from Zoomland....
	👻 4:22pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ Rev. Turnip Druid @3:40 Overfluffy cakeification is the death of proper homey, rustic loaf cakes, properly shaggy muffins, etc.
	👻 4:22pm Bruce S.: really cool sounds
	4:24pm dale: hey fabio. good show. i like these 'el kabong' guitar noises.
	4:25pm nic: this is great!!!
	👻 4:26pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ↳ WM @4:14 came here to leave the identical comment... but the venue was DC Space, sometime in the mid-late '80s. Hello, tinnitus! Brilliant show, of course.
	👻 4:26pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: OTOH I am all for the recent trend of "cupcakification" of certain Italian deli cookies/baked goods. Place near me makes little tricolor cupcakes topped with an actual tricolor cookie; cannoli cupcakes topped with a proper mini cannoli, etc. They also do a very cool Nutella cupcake which comes with a very tiny actual plastic jar full of Nutella embedded in the chocolate frosting. Then there's the issue of iterative, fractal pastries -- such as a giant cannoli stuffed with cannolis (actually exists, known out here as a "cannoli bazooka), tricolor cakes covered in tricolor cookies, and so on.
	👻 4:28pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Could one make a tricolor cake that is hollowed out and filled with tricolor cupcakes, and then topped with tricolor cookies? Structurally could the same be done with cannolis or would that be too dense?
	👻 4:28pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @4:22 yeh, it's a basic difference of philosophy. Some dig a more savory carrot-cake. Others are uncivilized larvae goofbags.
	👻 4:29pm Bruce S.: tricolor, I like the sound of that word,tricolor
	👻 4:29pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ Rev. Turnip Druid @4:28 My Mom, may she rest in peace, did a very nice loaf style carrot cake with a nice thick slab of cream cheese dressing on top -- and ONLY the top, as is proper and acceptable before the Lord.
	👻 4:30pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ Bruce S. @4:29 Also known as "rainbow cookies" but most Italian places I've been to call em tricolore.
	4:30pm common: hello fabio and peoples!
	4:30pm βrian: Nutella, to me, is just sweet, processed palm oil. I don't get it. (And I won't get it.)
	👻 4:31pm Bruce S.: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @4:30 of course Tri colore
	👻 4:31pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ βrian @4:30 I've stopped getting the stuff also -- they lied through their teeth when the EU investigated its alleged purity and nutritional value. OTOH the cupcakes LOOK very cool in the case, rocking their tiny little Nutella jar hats at a jaunty angle.
	👻 4:32pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ βrian @4:30 And yes they make Nutella layer cakes topped with said little jars....the cakes are crowned with a nice little ring of em.
	👻 4:34pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: For anyone really into EU regulatory laws and its application RE Nutella: www.jstor.org...
	👻 4:34pm Bruce S.: ↳ βrian @4:30 I'll tell you if you have a sweet tooth Nutella can really hit the spot sometimes, in small amounts
	4:35pm PaulRobeson1924: Hii
	4:35pm WM: Did Donald Miller ever get around to writing about his music and other interests? I'm sure his writing would be fascinating. Borbetomagus is a touchstone for me. They developed and carried on a sound that was first hinted at on side two of the Stooges Funhouse.
	4:37pm listener 126464: Ruffin’ Randy!
	👻 4:41pm Rev. Turnip Druid: perfect description of that DC Space gig. ... this long ramp of grating hell that eventually broke through to something overworldly ..
	4:41pm WM: Now I remember I have a copy of a Little Treatise on Morals on cd. must listen to it again.
	4:42pm donald miller fan: fan and friend....amazing Donald.
	4:43pm donald miller fan: his amazing stories of his DC family....
	4:45pm WM: Where can i find some of Donald Miller's poetry
	4:47pm Marie in Chicago: Hey, really enjoying the show and the chat.
	👻 4:47pm Bruce S.: amazing is the word that comes to mind
	4:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ Good ♃Thursday FMUvianz ~ ...actually into Hermetic Metaphysics & Art enuff to recognize the name of Austin Osman Spare...
	4:52pm WM: I remember hearing an interview with Donald Miller on wfmu I guess with the dj you mentioned. He talked about his middle school music class and also mentioned he had EXP by Jimi Hendrix as a ringtone on his phone. If I am remembering correctly.
	4:53pm PaulRobeson1924: We built pyramids in honor of our escaping
	5:00pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ PaulRobeson1924 @4:53 Sounds like a great first line of something... a poem, a story, a movie...
	👻 5:02pm Bruce S.: many cats or many names for a cat?
	5:04pm ?: The King of Giant Land took his pink Volvo wagon to the giant farm market, bought a giant carrot and everyone could see he put it in his Volvo
	5:07pm joe mulligan: the emptiest I've ever seen Manhattan (before the pandemic) was having thanksgiving dinner in the west village
	5:10pm Handy Haversack: ↳ joe mulligan @5:07 I once walked from the World Trade Center to the Village on Christmas evening. Went twenty minutes without seeing a single person or sign of life through the Financial District. We got to Kenny's Castaways and felt honestly rescued!
	👻 5:13pm Bruce S.: ↳ joe mulligan @5:07 sundays in the sweltering heat of the summer was an empty Manhatten experience for me
	5:14pm joe mulligan: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:10 that's quite a long stretch without seeing anyone! do you remember the concert?
	5:15pm Handy Haversack: ↳ joe mulligan @5:14 No concert going on. Just a few Christmas drinkers and a very welcoming and easygoing bar staff!
	5:15pm WM: What exactly is the name of Donald Miller's wife? I would love to read some of her writings. Again, if i am remembering correctly i think i saw her at the Borbetomagus concert I mentioned. She was dancing or sort of stamping her feet to the shock wave sound.
	5:15pm joe mulligan: ↳ Bruce S. @5:13 nowadays even the stench of summer doesn't stop tourists. ah the good ole days..
	👻 5:16pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ joe mulligan @5:07 mrs. citr and i were once kicked out of John's pizza in the Village because of a "snowpocalypse" that was really just a blizzard. it was wonderful strolling on the empty streets. i think the only person we saw was a dude on x-country skis. exactly the right thing to do, imo.
	👻 5:17pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:15 pretty ideal. i like.
	5:17pm Handy Haversack: ↳ chris in the redwoods @5:16 Heh. In the blizzard of '96, we had to walk all the way from the LES to Washington Square to find anyone selling weed!
	5:19pm Witchbeam: I'm going to miss Donald. Collaborated with him on a cassette, Miller, WItchbeam & De Brys. You can find it on Discogs. Fond memories of a unique talent.
	👻 5:19pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:17 the struggle is real!
	5:21pm Witchbeam: ↳ WM @5:15 Her name is Cree McCree.
	👻 5:22pm Bruce S.: ↳ Song: "Some Things Don't Grow Back" by "Circle X" digging circle x
	5:25pm ultradamno: RIP donaldmiller.bandcamp.com...
	5:25pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Bruce S. @5:13 me too
	5:25pm WM: Answer - Cree McCree as I just found out from a quick Google search. I also just joined DM's Facebook page.
	5:26pm WM: thanks, witchbeam
	5:26pm Marie in Chicago: I remember being on the Coney Island Boardwalk during a rainstorm and no one else was there. I was down at the end and it was a summer or spring day. Eventually, I ran into a lifeguard but I was amazed (and loved it)
	👻 5:27pm Rev. Turnip Druid: camebert electrique-era gong had some worthy flute-isms
	👻 5:28pm chresti: I'm with Fabio on the flute issue
	👻 5:29pm Bruce S.: ↳ chresti @5:28 Ain't necesserily so by Herbie Mann, great flute
	5:30pm PaulRobeson1924: Ho Ho HO
	👻 5:30pm chresti: ↳ Bruce S. @5:29 Sure there are exceptions..
	👻 5:33pm Bruce S.: ↳ chresti @5:30 just as long as you know it no no I'm just kidding about that love you're Morticia Icon
	5:35pm dale: so much ejaculation....i need a washcloth.
	👻 5:36pm Bruce S.: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:26 summer rainstorm on the Boardwalk,I'm there!
	5:37pm ?: I bet King of Giant Land says you're all retarded for not liking flute. He should like beer and pickles,flute and polka too
	👻 5:40pm Bruce S.: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:26 I once visited Rockaway Beach with some friens in the middle of winter, it was totaly deserted except for individual people we would see walking alone and we wondered why they were there, where were they going? it was kind of spooky
	5:40pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Bruce S. @5:36 Yeah, twas a beautiful thing. I'll always remember it.
	5:42pm PaulRobeson1924: variety.com...
	5:42pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Bruce S. @5:40 Hm, yeah, I've gone there and Coney Island in the winter (and all year long--I like to go by the ocean regularly). I think some people in the Rockaways grew up there and they are so acclimated to being there and walk along there a lot
	5:43pm ?: Enjoying the show, gentlemen, and this piece is lovely.
	5:43pm dale: great conversation, great music...thanks fabio and guest.
	5:46pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:42 I'm reminded of the movie "Two Lovers" where the character played by Joaquin Phoenix grew up right by the beach in Brighton Beach, and the movie has a few scenes right there on the Boardwalk (great movie)
	5:46pm Ike: Very nice.
	👻 5:47pm Bruce S.: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:42 one of the good things about living in south Brookly is that it's so close to the Beach, it's sometimes like an urban beach neiborhood. I like going to the Beach and being close to the Ocean,but I don't wear a bathing suit and sit on the sand
	👻 5:50pm Bruce S.: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:46 like the scene in the movie Mean Street were Harvey Kietel is all dressed up in a suit and tie while walking on the Beach with his girlfriend
	5:50pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Bruce S. @5:47 oh, yeah, to me that is a real plus, to live by the beach and a large body of water. Some people seem to think beaches aren't if they're in a city but I think they are. However you want to experience the beach--you do you @))
	5:51pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Bruce S. @5:47 We are about as far as one can be from the beach and be in Brooklyn, but I feel very connected to the creek and the river up here.
	5:51pm Rev. Dr. Paul: The D.C. Space performance by Borbetomagus was released on their LP/CD SNUFF JAZZ.
	5:52pm Marie in Chicago: I haven't seen that for so long. I'll have to watch that again soon.
	5:52pm Picante Mint: ↳ Song: "Journey from the Death of a Friend" by "Terry Riley" This rules
	5:52pm G3: Hi Fabio. Nice sounds coming through my headset.
	5:53pm Marie in Chicago: Speaking of movies, I recently saw Basquiat in the theatre and really liked it. Oh yeah, and this music is tremendous.
	👻 5:53pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ↳ Rev. Dr. Paul @5:51 Yesssss, after those earlier comments I did some searching to see if I could find a date, & discovered that Snuff Jazz release. Very wild that it was recorded & made available.
	👻 5:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thank you, Fabio.
	5:55pm Kat in the chat: Here for the Terry Riley and beach talk
	👻 5:55pm Bruce S.: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:51 yeah Handy Brooklyn is so huge and there are still individual niebrhoods that are different experientialy
	5:55pm Handy Haversack: Many thanks, Fabio!
	5:55pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Kat in the chat @5:55 hee hee hee
	5:55pm steveo: thanks, Fabio!!!
	👻 5:56pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ↳ Bruce S. @5:47 Back in ancient times (1980s) a close friend lived sort of down there, not far from the Kings Hwy station. Visits always required a stop at the aquarium to worship the belugas...
	5:57pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:51 that's great. It's like how, to me, Red Hook has a kind of seafaring vibe... (in some parts of it)
	👻 5:57pm Bas NL: Thanks Fabio! Thanks Rik!
	5:57pm listener 126464: Thank you, Fabio & Rik.
	👻 5:57pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Thanks for the great show Fabio and Rik! Everyone stay safe and remember: Only YOU can help restore proper homey carrot cake to its proper place in society.
	👻 5:57pm Bruce S.: thanks Fabio and Rik thanks all, see you next time
	5:58pm Marie in Chicago: Thanks, Fabio. Rik's last name means "the tender" en Francaise..
	5:58pm spodiodi: thanks, Fabio!
	5:58pm bleubombersune: Fabio thank you all pseudo failures stay safe and be well
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Fabio ~
	👻 5:59pm chris in the redwoods: thanks, guys!
	👻 5:59pm chresti: Thanks Fabio and Rik!
	5:59pm joe mulligan: thanks for sharing the legend of Donald Miller you two!
	6:01pm slugluv1313: this has been wonderful, Fabio -- thanks so much! (and thank goodness for WFMU archives! gotta catch what i missed -- not feeling well, so took a nap earlier, but did not wake up in time for the beginning of your show) thank you too, Rik Letendre -- i think my introduction to Borbetomagus was through Generator, when they were still on East Third Street Transgression!!! on the wish list! 🖤🖤
	11:26am THEbass: ↳ WM @5:15 hi WM: Her name is Cree McCree.
	11:27am THEbass: ↳ WM @5:15 oops. Tried to respond but my comment went to the bottom of the comments. Her name is Cree McCree.

	👻 3:19pm Bruce S.: cry for a carrot cake
	3:19pm βrian: I'm more of a lemon-almond tea cake kind of a person. Very dense, not too sweet, and a bright lemony flavor.

	3:26pm captain beef fart: ↳ βrian @3:24 Raisins in moderation and, yes, soak the cake in dark rum before serving.
	3:27pm Krull Sagan: Late to Fail, but Failing with y’inz nonetheless! Happy hellraising to All Thee Strong Ones
	3:27pm Krull Sagan: And all of us Failing at Strength
	👻 3:27pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Hello, Fabio and all!
	👻 3:30pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ↳ βrian @3:24 Raisins are permitted as long as the whole thing isn't too sweet. A decent carrot cake should have chunks of whatnot in it (nuts, etc), not just soulless awful brown puffball cake-fakery. It should be like wood, man, it needs MATTER! .. suddenly waking up and i'm shouting in the street, haven't answered the question. Coming inside now...
	👻 3:34pm Bruce S.: I don.t think I dig a carrot cake with raisins,sounds to sweet
	3:36pm Hubig Pie: Pee-cans and/or walnuts, golden raisins, shards of carrots and cream cheese topper = my ideal carrot cake
	3:38pm bobobobob Plasticland: I think William Parker and Evan Parker should record together...LP could be called... Monopoly by Parker Brothers
	3:39pm tangopa: @Krull Sagan - my mind is open and ready to receiveth
	👻 3:40pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ↳ Bruce S. @3:34 my instinct says the same, but as long as it's in balance with not-sweet stuff, hell, anything is possible. As long as we put an end to the soul-less over-sweet puffball cake-fakery, there's hope in this dark world.
	👻 3:46pm Bruce S.: I watched a great double feature of taped movies the other night, started with out of the past, man if you care anything about film Noir you must see out of the past before you die
	👻 3:48pm Bruce S.: Followed that up with Tropic Thundar, a really hilarious movie, every one is great in it especially Robert Downey Jr and Tom Cruise
	3:48pm nic: love this!!!
	👻 3:52pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Song: "The Lure of the Mine" by "Colin Stetson" interview with Colin Stetson on Morricone Island back in 2020 - www.wfmu.org...
	👻 3:53pm Bruce S.: Tom Cruise Says AS always FUCK YOU
	👻 3:54pm chris in the redwoods: hello, Fabio. digging the tunes here. hello, all, and a slightly uncomfortably large slice of carrot cake to those who partake.
	3:56pm Reno D: Shades of House on the Hill, by Audience. Well, before this vocal.
	3:58pm spodiodi: Greetings, Fabio and all!!
	3:59pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): Wow I need to go back to this release from Colin.
	3:59pm Ike: ↳ Song: "The Lure of the Mine" by "Colin Stetson" We volunteers all agree this is a banger.
	👻 4:00pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Ike @3:59 thank you all for your service! <3
	4:01pm chresti: Now I want a soulless puffball cake
	4:01pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Ike @3:59 Missed you by a day, Ike!
	4:01pm Krull Sagan: ↳ tangopa @3:39 Kiss your tall housemate for me tangopa!
	4:02pm tangopa: ↳ Krull Sagan @4:01 I do it.
	4:03pm yippie: wow fabio its totally awesome that you are etruscan, i never knew that before
	👻 4:04pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Rev. Turnip Druid @3:30 The failure of store-bought bread these days is that all the selections are fluffy like wedding cake without the sweeteners. Does not make a desirable sandwich.
	4:06pm Joe: Does anyone know the song in the background in the first part of the interview?
	👻 4:07pm Bruce S.: Fabio playing Peter Gun great
	4:13pm Krull Sagan: Ha! Osman Spare- Genesis P.O. is nodding from the other plane
	4:14pm WM: i heard Borbetomagus a long time ago at the old knitting factory. my ears are still ringing.
	4:15pm Avspuk: Glyphs? Runes?
	👻 4:21pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Back from Zoomland....
	👻 4:22pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ Rev. Turnip Druid @3:40 Overfluffy cakeification is the death of proper homey, rustic loaf cakes, properly shaggy muffins, etc.
	👻 4:22pm Bruce S.: really cool sounds
	4:24pm dale: hey fabio. good show. i like these 'el kabong' guitar noises.
	4:25pm nic: this is great!!!
	👻 4:26pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ↳ WM @4:14 came here to leave the identical comment... but the venue was DC Space, sometime in the mid-late '80s. Hello, tinnitus! Brilliant show, of course.
	👻 4:26pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: OTOH I am all for the recent trend of "cupcakification" of certain Italian deli cookies/baked goods. Place near me makes little tricolor cupcakes topped with an actual tricolor cookie; cannoli cupcakes topped with a proper mini cannoli, etc. They also do a very cool Nutella cupcake which comes with a very tiny actual plastic jar full of Nutella embedded in the chocolate frosting. Then there's the issue of iterative, fractal pastries -- such as a giant cannoli stuffed with cannolis (actually exists, known out here as a "cannoli bazooka), tricolor cakes covered in tricolor cookies, and so on.
	👻 4:28pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Could one make a tricolor cake that is hollowed out and filled with tricolor cupcakes, and then topped with tricolor cookies? Structurally could the same be done with cannolis or would that be too dense?
	👻 4:28pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @4:22 yeh, it's a basic difference of philosophy. Some dig a more savory carrot-cake. Others are uncivilized larvae goofbags.
	👻 4:29pm Bruce S.: tricolor, I like the sound of that word,tricolor
	👻 4:29pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ Rev. Turnip Druid @4:28 My Mom, may she rest in peace, did a very nice loaf style carrot cake with a nice thick slab of cream cheese dressing on top -- and ONLY the top, as is proper and acceptable before the Lord.
	👻 4:30pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ Bruce S. @4:29 Also known as "rainbow cookies" but most Italian places I've been to call em tricolore.
	4:30pm common: hello fabio and peoples!
	4:30pm βrian: Nutella, to me, is just sweet, processed palm oil. I don't get it. (And I won't get it.)
	👻 4:31pm Bruce S.: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @4:30 of course Tri colore
	👻 4:31pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ βrian @4:30 I've stopped getting the stuff also -- they lied through their teeth when the EU investigated its alleged purity and nutritional value. OTOH the cupcakes LOOK very cool in the case, rocking their tiny little Nutella jar hats at a jaunty angle.
	👻 4:32pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ βrian @4:30 And yes they make Nutella layer cakes topped with said little jars....the cakes are crowned with a nice little ring of em.
	👻 4:34pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: For anyone really into EU regulatory laws and its application RE Nutella: www.jstor.org...
	👻 4:34pm Bruce S.: ↳ βrian @4:30 I'll tell you if you have a sweet tooth Nutella can really hit the spot sometimes, in small amounts
	4:35pm PaulRobeson1924: Hii
	4:35pm WM: Did Donald Miller ever get around to writing about his music and other interests? I'm sure his writing would be fascinating. Borbetomagus is a touchstone for me. They developed and carried on a sound that was first hinted at on side two of the Stooges Funhouse.
	4:37pm listener 126464: Ruffin’ Randy!
	👻 4:41pm Rev. Turnip Druid: perfect description of that DC Space gig. ... this long ramp of grating hell that eventually broke through to something overworldly ..
	4:41pm WM: Now I remember I have a copy of a Little Treatise on Morals on cd. must listen to it again.
	4:42pm donald miller fan: fan and friend....amazing Donald.
	4:43pm donald miller fan: his amazing stories of his DC family....
	4:45pm WM: Where can i find some of Donald Miller's poetry
	4:47pm Marie in Chicago: Hey, really enjoying the show and the chat.
	👻 4:47pm Bruce S.: amazing is the word that comes to mind
	4:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ Good ♃Thursday FMUvianz ~ ...actually into Hermetic Metaphysics & Art enuff to recognize the name of Austin Osman Spare...
	4:52pm WM: I remember hearing an interview with Donald Miller on wfmu I guess with the dj you mentioned. He talked about his middle school music class and also mentioned he had EXP by Jimi Hendrix as a ringtone on his phone. If I am remembering correctly.
	4:53pm PaulRobeson1924: We built pyramids in honor of our escaping
	5:00pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ PaulRobeson1924 @4:53 Sounds like a great first line of something... a poem, a story, a movie...
	👻 5:02pm Bruce S.: many cats or many names for a cat?
	5:04pm ?: The King of Giant Land took his pink Volvo wagon to the giant farm market, bought a giant carrot and everyone could see he put it in his Volvo
	5:07pm joe mulligan: the emptiest I've ever seen Manhattan (before the pandemic) was having thanksgiving dinner in the west village
	5:10pm Handy Haversack: ↳ joe mulligan @5:07 I once walked from the World Trade Center to the Village on Christmas evening. Went twenty minutes without seeing a single person or sign of life through the Financial District. We got to Kenny's Castaways and felt honestly rescued!
	👻 5:13pm Bruce S.: ↳ joe mulligan @5:07 sundays in the sweltering heat of the summer was an empty Manhatten experience for me
	5:14pm joe mulligan: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:10 that's quite a long stretch without seeing anyone! do you remember the concert?
	5:15pm Handy Haversack: ↳ joe mulligan @5:14 No concert going on. Just a few Christmas drinkers and a very welcoming and easygoing bar staff!
	5:15pm WM: What exactly is the name of Donald Miller's wife? I would love to read some of her writings. Again, if i am remembering correctly i think i saw her at the Borbetomagus concert I mentioned. She was dancing or sort of stamping her feet to the shock wave sound.
	5:15pm joe mulligan: ↳ Bruce S. @5:13 nowadays even the stench of summer doesn't stop tourists. ah the good ole days..
	👻 5:16pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ joe mulligan @5:07 mrs. citr and i were once kicked out of John's pizza in the Village because of a "snowpocalypse" that was really just a blizzard. it was wonderful strolling on the empty streets. i think the only person we saw was a dude on x-country skis. exactly the right thing to do, imo.
	👻 5:17pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:15 pretty ideal. i like.
	5:17pm Handy Haversack: ↳ chris in the redwoods @5:16 Heh. In the blizzard of '96, we had to walk all the way from the LES to Washington Square to find anyone selling weed!
	5:19pm Witchbeam: I'm going to miss Donald. Collaborated with him on a cassette, Miller, WItchbeam & De Brys. You can find it on Discogs. Fond memories of a unique talent.
	👻 5:19pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:17 the struggle is real!
	5:21pm Witchbeam: ↳ WM @5:15 Her name is Cree McCree.
	👻 5:22pm Bruce S.: ↳ Song: "Some Things Don't Grow Back" by "Circle X" digging circle x
	5:25pm ultradamno: RIP donaldmiller.bandcamp.com...
	5:25pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Bruce S. @5:13 me too
	5:25pm WM: Answer - Cree McCree as I just found out from a quick Google search. I also just joined DM's Facebook page.
	5:26pm WM: thanks, witchbeam
	5:26pm Marie in Chicago: I remember being on the Coney Island Boardwalk during a rainstorm and no one else was there. I was down at the end and it was a summer or spring day. Eventually, I ran into a lifeguard but I was amazed (and loved it)
	👻 5:27pm Rev. Turnip Druid: camebert electrique-era gong had some worthy flute-isms
	👻 5:28pm chresti: I'm with Fabio on the flute issue
	👻 5:29pm Bruce S.: ↳ chresti @5:28 Ain't necesserily so by Herbie Mann, great flute
	5:30pm PaulRobeson1924: Ho Ho HO
	👻 5:30pm chresti: ↳ Bruce S. @5:29 Sure there are exceptions..
	👻 5:33pm Bruce S.: ↳ chresti @5:30 just as long as you know it no no I'm just kidding about that love you're Morticia Icon
	5:35pm dale: so much ejaculation....i need a washcloth.
	👻 5:36pm Bruce S.: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:26 summer rainstorm on the Boardwalk,I'm there!
	5:37pm ?: I bet King of Giant Land says you're all retarded for not liking flute. He should like beer and pickles,flute and polka too
	👻 5:40pm Bruce S.: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:26 I once visited Rockaway Beach with some friens in the middle of winter, it was totaly deserted except for individual people we would see walking alone and we wondered why they were there, where were they going? it was kind of spooky
	5:40pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Bruce S. @5:36 Yeah, twas a beautiful thing. I'll always remember it.
	5:42pm PaulRobeson1924: variety.com...
	5:42pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Bruce S. @5:40 Hm, yeah, I've gone there and Coney Island in the winter (and all year long--I like to go by the ocean regularly). I think some people in the Rockaways grew up there and they are so acclimated to being there and walk along there a lot
	5:43pm ?: Enjoying the show, gentlemen, and this piece is lovely.
	5:43pm dale: great conversation, great music...thanks fabio and guest.
	5:46pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:42 I'm reminded of the movie "Two Lovers" where the character played by Joaquin Phoenix grew up right by the beach in Brighton Beach, and the movie has a few scenes right there on the Boardwalk (great movie)
	5:46pm Ike: Very nice.
	👻 5:47pm Bruce S.: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:42 one of the good things about living in south Brookly is that it's so close to the Beach, it's sometimes like an urban beach neiborhood. I like going to the Beach and being close to the Ocean,but I don't wear a bathing suit and sit on the sand
	👻 5:50pm Bruce S.: ↳ Marie in Chicago @5:46 like the scene in the movie Mean Street were Harvey Kietel is all dressed up in a suit and tie while walking on the Beach with his girlfriend
	5:50pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Bruce S. @5:47 oh, yeah, to me that is a real plus, to live by the beach and a large body of water. Some people seem to think beaches aren't if they're in a city but I think they are. However you want to experience the beach--you do you @))
	5:51pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Bruce S. @5:47 We are about as far as one can be from the beach and be in Brooklyn, but I feel very connected to the creek and the river up here.
	5:51pm Rev. Dr. Paul: The D.C. Space performance by Borbetomagus was released on their LP/CD SNUFF JAZZ.
	5:52pm Marie in Chicago: I haven't seen that for so long. I'll have to watch that again soon.
	5:52pm Picante Mint: ↳ Song: "Journey from the Death of a Friend" by "Terry Riley" This rules
	5:52pm G3: Hi Fabio. Nice sounds coming through my headset.
	5:53pm Marie in Chicago: Speaking of movies, I recently saw Basquiat in the theatre and really liked it. Oh yeah, and this music is tremendous.
	👻 5:53pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ↳ Rev. Dr. Paul @5:51 Yesssss, after those earlier comments I did some searching to see if I could find a date, & discovered that Snuff Jazz release. Very wild that it was recorded & made available.
	👻 5:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thank you, Fabio.
	5:55pm Kat in the chat: Here for the Terry Riley and beach talk
	👻 5:55pm Bruce S.: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:51 yeah Handy Brooklyn is so huge and there are still individual niebrhoods that are different experientialy
	5:55pm Handy Haversack: Many thanks, Fabio!
	5:55pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Kat in the chat @5:55 hee hee hee
	5:55pm steveo: thanks, Fabio!!!
	👻 5:56pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ↳ Bruce S. @5:47 Back in ancient times (1980s) a close friend lived sort of down there, not far from the Kings Hwy station. Visits always required a stop at the aquarium to worship the belugas...
	5:57pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:51 that's great. It's like how, to me, Red Hook has a kind of seafaring vibe... (in some parts of it)
	👻 5:57pm Bas NL: Thanks Fabio! Thanks Rik!
	5:57pm listener 126464: Thank you, Fabio & Rik.
	👻 5:57pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Thanks for the great show Fabio and Rik! Everyone stay safe and remember: Only YOU can help restore proper homey carrot cake to its proper place in society.

	6:01pm slugluv1313: this has been wonderful, Fabio -- thanks so much! (and thank goodness for WFMU archives! gotta catch what i missed -- not feeling well, so took a nap earlier, but did not wake up in time for the beginning of your show) thank you too, Rik Letendre -- i think my introduction to Borbetomagus was through Generator, when they were still on East Third Street Transgression!!! on the wish list! 🖤🖤
	11:26am THEbass: ↳ WM @5:15 hi WM: Her name is Cree McCree.
