	1:04pm Jan Turkenburg: Hi everybody! Listening while preparing diner :-)
	1:05pm Krys O.: Hey, fred, Jan! I just had lunch and making a cup of green tea, double strength.
	👻 1:06pm fred: ↳ Jan Turkenburg @1:04 Hi Jan! A week of confusion coming as we switch out of DST but the station doesn't until next weekend
	1:07pm Jan Turkenburg: ↳ fred @1:06 hi fred, indeed. I will probably run out of post its...
	👻 1:08pm WR: Heading out on errands but listening.
	1:08pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:06 Yes, it means coming home from work in the dark. Need extra fish oil capsules.
	1:09pm Krys O.: ↳ WR @1:08 Cheers, WR! Good to know we're portable.
	1:10pm Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Ashcroft" by "Squinchy Edison" This is an extra special treat. James Kavoussi aka Phoaming Edison made this out of John Ashcroft singing his tune Let the Eagle Soar.
	1:10pm Webhamster Henry: Hi Krys!
	1:10pm Krys O.: Hey, Henry!
	👻 1:13pm yerfriendpaul: Hi Krys, everyone!
	1:13pm Krys O.: Howdy, Paul!
	1:16pm Webhamster Henry: How about that Wilhelm scream super cut?
	1:16pm Toothgrinder Tom: Bela Lugosi?
	👻 1:17pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:08 I don't like DST at all. I'll get home at night anyway, and I need the earlier daylight
	1:17pm Krys O.: ↳ Webhamster Henry @1:16 LOL!
	1:18pm Krys O.: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @1:16 Hi, Toothgrinder Tom! Yes, that was Bela in the trailer for Devil Bat. Saw that as a kid and it gave me nightmares.
	👻 1:20pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Song: "Lenny Forgot His Legs" by "Fly Ashtray" Liking this!!
	1:21pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Krys O and frightened folks.
	1:22pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @1:20 Fly Ashtray are always great. They're still recording. In fact they just put up something new on Bandcamp, Moms4Liberty: flyashtray.bandcamp.com
	1:22pm Krys O.: Hi, Ken!
	👻 1:24pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Krys O. @1:22 Thank you! Gonna definitely check them out
	👻 1:25pm fred: @Krys: I saw a dance show yesterday that might be of interest. Three pairings of mother and daughter (like actual mothers of dancers), performed in silence except for a few phrases were they would repeat or alternate words. All very slow and about touch and support. Very moving. The choreographer's mother was the oldest, but anyway I couldn't help seeing the similarities and differences, and the awkward/comfortable spectrum of the mother-daughter relationship
	1:26pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:25 Wow! That sounds wonderful.
	👻 1:31pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:26 As an additional twist, the audience was split in three group and circling through the place to different spaces, instead of the performers moving in and out. It felt more like we were going into their place, a very thoughtful design (maybe difficult to tour with though)
	1:32pm Otis Fodder: That's a good piggy, awwww.
	1:33pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:31 Ah, that is interesting. Did the audience members talk to each other about the experience?
	1:35pm Krys O.: ↳ Otis Fodder @1:32 Her name is Gypse and she's usually laying in the sun on the front lawn. She wags her tail when I call her name. Yesterday's behavior was unexpected. The scolding took all of ten seconds. She stood on her hind legs as she ate the banana. She eats it peel and all.
	1:35pm Rich in Washington: Howdy, Krys O! Digging the eerie sounds!
	1:36pm Krys O.: Hey, Rich! Good to have you here.
	👻 1:36pm WR: ↳ fred @1:25 sounds interesting, Fred
	1:37pm Webhamster Henry: Bit of a Powerhouse feel here in the bassline!
	👻 1:38pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:33 The piece is Mothers & Daughters, by Eszter Salamon I don't know, that was my fourth straight show of the week and I was pretty exhausted, so I just bolted. To be honest, the setting (bright lights with the audience around a central small square "stage") made me very uncomfortably visible (one guy was wearing a Laibach T-shirt though, cool)
	1:38pm Krys O.: ↳ Webhamster Henry @1:37 Hmm, you're right. A slight Peter Gunn touch too .
	1:42pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @1:38 Sounds like an intimate space. My friend Cindy Stern described seeing Linda Sharrock at Cafe Oto in London years ago. Linda was so close and was giving an intense performance after she had had a stroke. The emotions were palpable, Cindy said.
	👻 1:50pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @1:42 Yeah, it was held in dance studios instead of a regular performance space
	👻 1:52pm yerfriendpaul: Loving this music, Krys!! Saint Saens Dance Macabre is sooo great
	👻 1:52pm WR: ↳ Song: "Gounod's Funeral March for a Marionette" by "Orch... so, this is source for Alfred Hitchcock theme?
	1:53pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @1:52 Thanks, Paul! I used to listen to WNCN the classical station in high school, then WQXR.
	1:54pm Otis Fodder: Wonderful set for work at the moment.
	1:54pm Krys O.: ↳ WR @1:52 Yes, that's correct. Off the top of my head I can't say whether it was Hitch's choice to use that as the theme. Must look into this.
	1:57pm Krys O.: ↳ WR @1:52 Here is the backstory. Alfred Hitchcock had heard the music in the 1927 film Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans. In 1955, when choosing the theme music for his television series Alfred Hitchcock Presents, he remembered the effect that "Funeral March of a Marionette" had on him. It was through Hitchcock's program that the music achieved its widest audience, although few people would have been able to identify the composer or title. The series continued for ten years, and the theme music appeared in five versions by as many arrangers: in 1955, 1960, 1962, 1963, and 1964 ‒ the last version being arranged by Bernard Herrmann, who transposed the piece up a third.[4] The "Funeral March of a Marionette" was one of eight compositions that Hitchcock selected to take to a fictional desert island on the 1959 BBC radio program, Desert Island Discs.[7]
	1:58pm Krys O.: ↳ Krys O. @1:57 I saw Sunrise at the Loews Jersey City years ago. It was a spectacular event with live organ accompaniment.
	1:59pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Krys O. @1:58 The Bardavon in Poughkeepsie just had two shows of the 1925 Phantom of the Opera with live organ accompaniment.
	2:02pm Krys O.: ↳ Webhamster Henry @1:59 Oooh, nice. Had a memorable time at MoMA in 2010 at a Lillian Gish silent film festival. The pianist was outstanding.
	2:04pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Krys O. @2:02 Those kinds of shows are always great. I was lucky to see Hitchcock The Lodger with the small orchestra led by WFMU's Devon E. Levins
	2:05pm Mr Fab: Krys! Diggin the spooky fun as I sit in the auto dealer lounge, headphones on, as they service my vehicle.
	👻 2:07pm fred: ↳ Mr Fab @2:05 How did you tell them which weir stuff is to keep and which is not?
	2:08pm Mr Fab: And yes, the poster is a beauty: wfmu.org... After this year, it grabs a vine and swings off, never to be seen again. Pledge at the Premium level or you will spend the rest of your days filled with shame and regret!
	2:08pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:05 Hi, Mr. Fab! Hope it's a painless process.
	2:09pm Krys O.: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:04 Nice!
	2:12pm Krys O.: ↳ Song: "The Omen Suite" by "Tenerife Film Orchestra & Cho... TCM aired an interview with Bill Conti and he talked about what a comprehensive composer Jerry Goldsmith was with such a wide ranging scope. He worked in TV and films for over 50 years.
	👻 2:12pm fred: There should be a sketch about Bryce complaining about a weird noise coming out of his car (if he had a car)
	2:13pm Mr Fab: ↳ fred @2:07 I really did once have a long black convertible my wife called the Munstermobile. Damn, I miss it…
	2:13pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @2:12 Bryce could replicate those noises with stunning accuracy.
	2:14pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:13 My wacky hoarder neighbor has a hearse that he drove around. It died a few months ago. I think it was from the mid-1960s.
	👻 2:19pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:13 A listener once posted he dismissed weird noise in his car as WFMU standard fare, got stranded on a highway as his transmission failed. Yes, it was Bryce's show
	2:20pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @2:19 Zoinks!
	2:23pm Mr Fab: Hearses are handy! You can carry large things like surfboards in them. There’s more than one song called “Surfin Hearse.”
	2:24pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:23 Ha!
	👻 2:25pm fred: ↳ Mr Fab @2:23 Also space for a lot of vintage electronic gear (these can be bulky)
	2:29pm Mr Fab: There’s (at least) 13 volumes of “Death & Horror”?! Very cool playing side a and b at once. Now I'm imagining playing all 13 volumes at once.
	2:30pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:29 (insert mind blowing gif here)
	2:30pm Otis Fodder: ↳ Mr Fab @2:23 When I was living in San Francisco 20 years ago, tradeMark and Frilly (Evolution Control Committee) had a checkboard hearse that they would load gear into for gigs, back in Ohio now I believe. This and the Whipped Creme car are some all time favs.
	2:33pm Krys O.: ↳ Otis Fodder @2:30 Sweet. There used to be a lot more art cars in New Jersey decades ago.
	2:33pm Otis Fodder: ↳ Mr Fab @2:29 Two Death & Horror volumes, while others are varied SFX. Other volumes, Out of this World + Disasters go in line and are favs.
	2:34pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "Ptak i Ludzie" by "Eugeniusz Rudnik" Good to hear an actual piece from Polish Experimental Radio Workshop. I have those samples from there that Wobbly released1
	2:34pm Rich in Washington: I loved that the BBC sound effects records had detailed descriptions of how they made the sounds on the jacket. I had a couple of volumes as a kid, inexplicably found in the cutout bin of our local drugstore.
	👻 2:34pm yerfriendpaul: I’m little late for this comment, but I remember taking a “films of Brian DePalma” class in college and Sisters was one of the films we watched. I remember enjoying the class and liking the films but it’s been so long, I don’t remember much except that Margot Kidder was in it
	2:35pm Otis Fodder: ↳ Otis Fodder @2:33 Consulting Discogs, I see Mike Harding did a "Even more Death & Horror" vol 3.. will need search that one out too for more boos.
	2:36pm Mr Fab: ↳ Otis Fodder @2:33 Oooooh! 13 volumes of just fx in general. Bummer. Well, there goes my brilliant idea.
	👻 2:36pm fred: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:34 Drugstore? Drug pushers I say; look at what they carried and how you turned out!
	2:38pm Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Ptak i Ludzie" by "Eugeniusz Rudnik" I understand this Polish spoken part.
	2:39pm Rich in Washington: The crow sounds were making my kittie Meiko's ears stand up. He's been chattering at the back patio door at the crows that gather in my backyard due to me throwing shelled peanuts out there for them.
	2:40pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:34 I have a DVD with Murder a la Mod, De Palma's first film. Bought it at a WFMU Record Fair many years ago.
	2:42pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:39 I'm a fan of corvids.
	2:43pm Webhamster Henry: How about a little Wickerman singing?
	2:43pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Krys O. @2:42 Me too. I also throw peanuts to the crows on my walk breaks at work. I live so close to my work that I have this silly notion that the crows at my house and crows around my work are one and the same. Clearly, I've lost it and am hopelessly weird in my old age.
	2:44pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Night of the Demon trailer (1957)" by "Various" I love this film!
	👻 2:44pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:42 So am I. If crows wake me up, I'm feeling good about the day
	2:44pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:43 They all talk about you.
	2:44pm Mr Fab: Burning Man would be a lot more interesting if they took a tip from “The Wicker Man.”
	2:45pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:44 LOL!
	2:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Mr Fab @2:44 they sort of did one year, although unwittingly. IYKYK
	👻 2:48pm WR: About to be underground on subway for 20 minutes, so writing my thanks now. Thank you, Krys. Laters folks.
	2:48pm Dawn Ritz: Hi Krys O! We’re listening in
	2:49pm Otis Fodder: Thanks Krys, off to see the sun about a walk. Have a nice rest of the weekend all.
	2:49pm Krys O.: ↳ Dawn Ritz @2:48 Hi, Dawn! Looking forward to the Beezlebubblegum!
	👻 2:49pm fred: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:45 Their being stranded by floods was a lot of fun though
	2:49pm Krys O.: ↳ Otis Fodder @2:49 Thanks for hanging out, Otis!
	2:52pm Webhamster Henry: Thanks for the creepiweepiness, Krys!
	2:54pm Krys O.: Thank you to everyone for listening and chatting! Hope you have a great weekend and a fabulous Halloween!
	2:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Krys Odd. 🎃
	2:56pm Hunterian: Thanks DJ KO, Happy Halloween!
	2:56pm Mr Fab: Super creepy coolness, Krys!
	2:56pm Krys O.: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @2:55 I yam what I yam!

	2:08pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:05 Hi, Mr. Fab! Hope it's a painless process.
	2:09pm Krys O.: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:04 Nice!
	2:12pm Krys O.: ↳ Song: "The Omen Suite" by "Tenerife Film Orchestra & Cho... TCM aired an interview with Bill Conti and he talked about what a comprehensive composer Jerry Goldsmith was with such a wide ranging scope. He worked in TV and films for over 50 years.
	👻 2:12pm fred: There should be a sketch about Bryce complaining about a weird noise coming out of his car (if he had a car)
	2:13pm Mr Fab: ↳ fred @2:07 I really did once have a long black convertible my wife called the Munstermobile. Damn, I miss it…
	2:13pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @2:12 Bryce could replicate those noises with stunning accuracy.
	2:14pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:13 My wacky hoarder neighbor has a hearse that he drove around. It died a few months ago. I think it was from the mid-1960s.
	👻 2:19pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:13 A listener once posted he dismissed weird noise in his car as WFMU standard fare, got stranded on a highway as his transmission failed. Yes, it was Bryce's show
	2:20pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @2:19 Zoinks!
	2:23pm Mr Fab: Hearses are handy! You can carry large things like surfboards in them. There’s more than one song called “Surfin Hearse.”
	2:24pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:23 Ha!
	👻 2:25pm fred: ↳ Mr Fab @2:23 Also space for a lot of vintage electronic gear (these can be bulky)
	2:29pm Mr Fab: There’s (at least) 13 volumes of “Death & Horror”?! Very cool playing side a and b at once. Now I'm imagining playing all 13 volumes at once.
	2:30pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:29 (insert mind blowing gif here)
	2:30pm Otis Fodder: ↳ Mr Fab @2:23 When I was living in San Francisco 20 years ago, tradeMark and Frilly (Evolution Control Committee) had a checkboard hearse that they would load gear into for gigs, back in Ohio now I believe. This and the Whipped Creme car are some all time favs.
	2:33pm Krys O.: ↳ Otis Fodder @2:30 Sweet. There used to be a lot more art cars in New Jersey decades ago.
	2:33pm Otis Fodder: ↳ Mr Fab @2:29 Two Death & Horror volumes, while others are varied SFX. Other volumes, Out of this World + Disasters go in line and are favs.
	2:34pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "Ptak i Ludzie" by "Eugeniusz Rudnik" Good to hear an actual piece from Polish Experimental Radio Workshop. I have those samples from there that Wobbly released1
	2:34pm Rich in Washington: I loved that the BBC sound effects records had detailed descriptions of how they made the sounds on the jacket. I had a couple of volumes as a kid, inexplicably found in the cutout bin of our local drugstore.
	👻 2:34pm yerfriendpaul: I’m little late for this comment, but I remember taking a “films of Brian DePalma” class in college and Sisters was one of the films we watched. I remember enjoying the class and liking the films but it’s been so long, I don’t remember much except that Margot Kidder was in it
	2:35pm Otis Fodder: ↳ Otis Fodder @2:33 Consulting Discogs, I see Mike Harding did a "Even more Death & Horror" vol 3.. will need search that one out too for more boos.
	2:36pm Mr Fab: ↳ Otis Fodder @2:33 Oooooh! 13 volumes of just fx in general. Bummer. Well, there goes my brilliant idea.
	👻 2:36pm fred: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:34 Drugstore? Drug pushers I say; look at what they carried and how you turned out!
	2:38pm Krys O.: ↳ Song: "Ptak i Ludzie" by "Eugeniusz Rudnik" I understand this Polish spoken part.
	2:39pm Rich in Washington: The crow sounds were making my kittie Meiko's ears stand up. He's been chattering at the back patio door at the crows that gather in my backyard due to me throwing shelled peanuts out there for them.
	2:40pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:34 I have a DVD with Murder a la Mod, De Palma's first film. Bought it at a WFMU Record Fair many years ago.
	2:42pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:39 I'm a fan of corvids.
	2:43pm Webhamster Henry: How about a little Wickerman singing?
	2:43pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Krys O. @2:42 Me too. I also throw peanuts to the crows on my walk breaks at work. I live so close to my work that I have this silly notion that the crows at my house and crows around my work are one and the same. Clearly, I've lost it and am hopelessly weird in my old age.
	2:44pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Night of the Demon trailer (1957)" by "Various" I love this film!
	👻 2:44pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:42 So am I. If crows wake me up, I'm feeling good about the day
	2:44pm Krys O.: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:43 They all talk about you.
	2:44pm Mr Fab: Burning Man would be a lot more interesting if they took a tip from “The Wicker Man.”
	2:45pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:44 LOL!
	2:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Mr Fab @2:44 they sort of did one year, although unwittingly. IYKYK
	👻 2:48pm WR: About to be underground on subway for 20 minutes, so writing my thanks now. Thank you, Krys. Laters folks.

	2:49pm Otis Fodder: Thanks Krys, off to see the sun about a walk. Have a nice rest of the weekend all.
	2:49pm Krys O.: ↳ Dawn Ritz @2:48 Hi, Dawn! Looking forward to the Beezlebubblegum!
	👻 2:49pm fred: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:45 Their being stranded by floods was a lot of fun though
	2:49pm Krys O.: ↳ Otis Fodder @2:49 Thanks for hanging out, Otis!
	2:52pm Webhamster Henry: Thanks for the creepiweepiness, Krys!
