	⚡ 6:03am William Hellfire: Good morning fiends!
	6:03am Brian D: Tom Tom, Fred, William, all. Good morning.
	6:04am Brian D: ↳ fred @6:02 Indeed. Huge loss. We MAY hear some music from him later.
	6:05am Cooh John: Good morning Brian and current eventers. What can I say? It is an end and beginning. Uncertainty awaits.
	6:05am Strandlund: ↳ fred @6:02 Good Morning Brian and all...Yes David... RIP David Lynch :( Such a huge loss.
	⚡ 6:06am tom tom the pipers son: rich in washington did an excellent tribute last night...3 hours
	⚡ 6:10am tom tom the pipers son: does the "cease fire" mention the west bank at all?
	6:10am Brian D: Hello Cooh, Strand.
	6:11am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:10 Not from what I've read/heard.
	6:12am Cooh John: Nice music to start the show. O-H...
	6:12am fred: ↳ Brian D @6:04 Back in college (business school) my English teacher told me not to attend her class because I'd be wasting my time there (she didn't have to tell me twice) Come finals time, the format was a 30 minute talk with the teacher about economics, but she told me I was free to ignore the guidelines. My topic was "small town America in David Lynch movies" She was a Lynch fan too, the exam just turned into a chat (in English, we kept it real), got an A+ grade
	6:13am Brian D: ↳ Cooh John @6:12 I love the Necks, generally. But this record, a single track, really, might be one of their best. I am debating playing the whole thing. We'll see...
	6:14am Brian D: ↳ fred @6:12 That is a great story. Kudos to that teacher.
	6:15am Cooh John: Love The Necks. Was 3 weeks away from seeing them 45 minutes from my house and then COVID hit.
	6:15am Eric the Hat: ↳ Cooh John @6:15 Brutal!
	6:16am Brian D: ↳ Cooh John @6:15 Ugh. That damn pandemic.
	6:16am Eric the Hat: Morning Brian
	⚡ 6:16am Spikey BXL: Good morning Brian, currentistas. Ears only 🚶🚶
	6:16am Brian D: ↳ Eric the Hat @6:16 Greetings Eric.
	⚡ 6:16am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @6:12 just learned about his meditation practice which puts a frame around his work for me...
	6:17am Brian D: ↳ Spikey BXL @6:16 A long walk spoiled... Good morning, Spikey.
	⚡ 6:17am Heidee: Hi Brian, hi all! A very happy new year to you all! 💫
	6:17am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:16 Several DJs here did TM with Lynch. I'm not among them.

	⚡ 6:19am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Heidee @6:17 hi heidee... long time...
	6:19am Brian D: ↳ Heidee @6:18 A former editor of mine used to call me that. How's the pup?
	⚡ 6:19am Heidee: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:19 😬
	⚡ 6:20am Heidee: ↳ Brian D @6:19 Pup's grand, we'll take her to a Burns Supper tonight. Should auld aquaintance be forgot.
	6:21am Brian D: ↳ Heidee @6:20 Nice!
	6:22am Eric the Hat: ↳ Brian D @6:17 I remember learning that Lynch and Donovan practiced TM and something about them holding massive sessions over the internet or something to that effect. Made sense to me. Considering Lynch’s method of harvesting ideas for his work from dreams.
	⚡ 6:23am Michael of Cologne: ↳ Song: "Cody Ray: A City Moving Forward - The Rubber City... Wonderful opening! Good noonday, Brian, Tom Tom & everyone else.
	6:23am Brian D: ↳ Michael of Cologne @6:23 Good day, Michael. Hope all is well.
	6:23am fred: ↳ Brian D @6:14 I think she gave up on teaching me when she saw me trying Finnegans Wake (took me 20 more years to get through it though). I still think about her as she encouraged my love of the written word; she's why I subscribe to literary magazines instead of tech stuff, she told me it was OK
	6:25am Brian D: ↳ fred @6:23 Smart woman. I am currently fighting my way through Dostoevsky's The Possessed.
	6:26am fred: ↳ Brian D @6:17 Fabio? He did/does practice TM
	6:27am Brian D: ↳ fred @6:26 He's not one of the ones I know of. But definitely possible, given his love of film, too.
	⚡ 6:28am tom tom the pipers son: hi michael....
	⚡ 6:28am Heidee: Hi fred, how are things?
	6:28am Listener Bop Monroe: greetings from cool clear Tannersville DJBD and all. this is nice.
	6:31am Brian D: ↳ Listener Bop Monroe @6:28 Good morning, LBM.
	6:32am Listener Bop Monroe: :-) grooving macho-ly
	6:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~Good ♄Saturday FMUvianz~
	6:33am fred: ↳ Heidee @6:28 A bit boring after an insane autumn (40 dance shows, plus concerts). Nowhere near that many up, but eyes on two dance festivals in March (I wish they'd publish the schedules earlier, the juggling is dicey). How are your excuses/escapes from grading going?
	6:34am Brian D: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @6:33 Greetings, Rev.
	⚡ 6:34am tom tom the pipers son: yesterday, went to the corner store to get some tea. thought i was getting lemon ginger tea, but it was lemon ginger honey crystals... not bad really, (haven't checked the ingredients) but i see its made by a company "prince of peace"...red flag, then i see logo and its a 60's era cartoon character in a crown....phew, then i see made in china and a bible proverb... red flag...falung gong?
	6:36am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:34 Depends... do you have a sudden interest in strange acrobatic performances?
	⚡ 6:36am Heidee: At least you got to see some good shows I hope. No excuse today but all the more pleasant grading with music.
	6:36am Fredericks: I'm not sure how you reached this page. (Do NOT use your browser's 'back' button!) CANCEL the comment and return to the playlist
	6:36am Listener Bop Monroe: tt, currently working my way thru a 200 bag box of Prince Of Peace oolong tea. nothing wrong with them, tasty. enjoy!
	⚡ 6:37am Heidee: ↳ Heidee @6:36 @fred 6:33
	⚡ 6:37am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Brian D @6:36 well i just realized it wouldn't be manufactured in china if it was falung gong
	⚡ 6:38am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Listener Bop Monroe @6:36 ah 200 bags....!
	6:38am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:37 That's true. So much for my lame joke.
	6:40am Matthew: I think Chinese Christians would be a good name for a band.
	⚡ 6:41am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Brian D @6:38 oh it was ok... the joke was low hanging fruit it had to be picked...still edible
	6:42am Listener Bop Monroe: never saw one offered before, so why not? great with Il Hwa ginseng packs. thats a very vocal owl
	6:43am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:41 My middle name is Low Hanging Fruit.
	⚡ 6:44am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Brian D @6:43 they make trusses for that
	6:45am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:44 ha!
	6:49am fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:37 Falun Gong has posters all year in the Paris subway. They don't lack money, that's for sure Looks way too fake traditional for me, but I get asked about Shen Yun very often
	6:51am fred: ↳ Song: "Clip: Sky News-CCTV footage shows IDF using ambul... An ambulance I guess IDF drones didn't target for bombing
	6:52am ?: Made me cry
	⚡ 6:53am tom tom the pipers son: re: war crimes...more than can possibly be counted prosecuted?... seems modus operandi fo official misconduct internationally
	6:53am rich in angleton: good morning brian and hello to everyone in radioland! the cat has joined me this morning! he really digs low.
	6:54am Eva: Low. Lovely. Perfect melancholy.
	⚡ 6:54am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @6:49 right...money coming from u.s.? asked about shen yun at work?
	⚡ 6:56am tom tom the pipers son: brian ...its going to be freeeezing this coming week
	6:57am fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:54 Shen Yun asks from family, not work. Coworkers know me better than that
	6:57am Danny in Poughkeepsie: Good morning Brian
	⚡ 6:58am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @6:57 yes, i thought that would be weird...
	⚡ 6:59am Heidee: @Brian, It takes time to process those things first, though. Those fires are such a desaster. 👐
	7:00am Brian D: ↳ rich in angleton @6:53 Rich! Bubs has great taste.
	7:00am Brian D: ↳ Danny in Poughkeepsie @6:57 Danny!
	7:01am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:56 News and weather on the 1s.
	7:01am Brian D: ↳ Heidee @6:59 Very true.
	⚡ 7:02am tom tom the pipers son: heads up... poetry
	⚡ 7:03am tom tom the pipers son: Not NYT Junk Poetry Disinformation Campaigns Have Eluded Overtures to Little-Known Intelligence Agency Prince to Take On the American Art of Television From the Dark, Disturbing Visions of the Bustling Newsroom to a Bustling Kitchen That Fell to the Fires Amid The Terrifying Realization That an Extravagant New Gallery Is Nervous, and Diplomatic Over The Joy and Awkwardness of a Sober Sex Sculpture That Is Too Broken to Still Show Us Who We Are
	7:03am TDK60: Good morning, Brian and Currentsians.
	7:04am Brian D: "a Sober Sex Sculpture" -- my confirmation name
	7:04am Brian D: ↳ TDK60 @7:03 Good morning, TDK.
	⚡ 7:05am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Brian D @7:04 ha!
	7:05am fred: ↳ Heidee @6:36 I did see a lot of great shows, so many it's a blur at times. I'm small so missed a lot/everything at some shows, but that's the deal. Tall people rule, and they can push you away with ushers making sure you don't push back
	⚡ 7:09am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Black Lake" by "Bjork" if that's an outdoor installation, it's quite interesting...always was intrigued by thater's work but never really "got" it
	7:09am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ fred @7:05 So much for the simple social grace of letting shorter people up front so everyone can see ...but I'm not optimistic about social graces anywhere just now...
	⚡ 7:11am Heidee: ↳ fred @7:05 You are right! I remember queueing in the students' refectory and often having tall students (often medicine or law for some reason) right behind me and their mouths directed right at my ears. The sheer volume of those conversations, yuck. :-)
	7:12am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:09 In Abu Dabi, I think.
	⚡ 7:12am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Brian D @7:12 thx
	7:13am Brian D: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:09 For the record, I'm tall -- and conscious of that when I go to shows. Usually try to stand off to the side -- for height and other reasons.
	⚡ 7:15am Heidee: ↳ Brian D @7:13 That's because you are a nice person, and we love you for that.
	7:18am Otto: Is that Antony singing?
	7:18am TDK60: Those who care can email the current U.S. executive to ask for release of longtime political prisoner Leonard Peltier. (I'm not hopeful.)
	7:19am Brian D: ↳ Heidee @7:15 That, and VERY self-conscious.
	7:21am Brian D: ↳ Otto @7:18 Don't think so, but can't confirm.
	7:22am Crafty: Hi Brian! Hi everyone!
	7:22am tj show: Horrible president
	7:24am Nick K: He is the biggest lie
	7:24am Brian D: ↳ TDK60 @7:18 Preach, brother.
	7:24am Brian D: ↳ Crafty @7:22 Good morning, Crafty.
	7:25am Dan S: ↳ Song: "Clip: Sky News-Biden warns of 'oligarchy' in fare... I thought it was a good and significant speech. It may be remembered in a similar way to Pres. Eisenhower's farewell speech warning about the military-industrial complex.
	⚡ 7:25am tom tom the pipers son: any moral high ground/ warnings achievement of biden is totally eclipsed by the moral rot of funding of war on gaza unfortunately
	7:25am TDK60: ↳ Brian D @7:24 There's a last-minute push. I've been emailing friends to email others. The old phone tree idea.
	7:28am Nick K: How can anyone believe in a career fraud
	7:29am Brian D: ↳ Dan S @7:25 Respectfully, the oligarchy bit, though, is a bit of a "no shit, Sherlock." Money has long corrupted our politics, particularly since Citizens United. Good morning, Dan, by the way.
	7:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Dan S @7:25 Seems the clear intent ...ironic if Biden is excoriated for his relative Militarism. Next week we'll have a dictatorial strongman in the Oval Office - whom I presume will side with other strongmen all over the World as he always has - the Putins & Netanyahoos & so on. As Hitler did with Stalin @ least for a short while...
	⚡ 7:30am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: Good morning Brian and everyone.
	7:30am Brian D: ↳ Nick K @7:28 A question many of us will be asking for the next four years as well.
	7:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Brian D @7:29 Indeed - DonaldDrumpf would not exist in a healthy System.
	7:31am Brian D: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @7:30 Greetings, Peter.
	⚡ 7:31am tom tom the pipers son: unfortunate also is trump's use of american leverage showing the ease of stopping the war and showing up biden echoing reagan/ carter and the iran hostages... and of course this will be phase one of cease fire ...all bets off for phase 2
	7:31am Dan S: ↳ Brian D @7:29 Good morning. I agree with you about Citizens United and the fact that this corruption isn't new. Still, when a president calls it out in a major speech, it's noteworthy.
	7:32am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:31 Because Drumpf & Netanyahoo are of a kind - as I said.
	7:32am Brian D: ↳ Dan S @7:31 Fair point.
	⚡ 7:33am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:30 its not militarism, its hypocrisy... the fake liberal words and the funding of another country's war
	⚡ 7:34am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:33 genocide
	⚡ 7:34am NotARealDoctor: Good morning Brian and fellow surfers of the currents. We're up at the dog park chasing the ball this morning.
	7:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:33 Well it's both. Biden always like the Military & as a longtime career politician in the Senate & all favored War (by any other name).
	7:35am Brian D: ↳ NotARealDoctor @7:34 Good morning, NARD. Throw a ball for me.
	7:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:34 ...& I've even granted that on the plus side - that means Biden was informed about Foreign Policy & the stakes - @ the very least. The incoming Administration has no knowledge - no expertise - & no intent to Serve the People whatsoever. Biden reportedly in private has exclaimed that Netanyahoo was a 'f*cking liar' - but that's in the past now...
	7:37am Dan S: At this point, I mostly don't give a shit about the Israelis or the Palestinians. I'm sick of both of them. I'm much more concerned about the Ukrainians and the likelihood that Trump will sell them out to the Russians. Mostly, I'm more concerned with what Trump's regime will mean for struggling Americans. Nothing good, tha's what.
	7:37am dale: morning. great music as always.
	7:38am Brian D: ↳ dale @7:37 Hello, Dale.
	7:38am Eric the Hat: ↳ Dan S @7:37 Life is the problem.
	7:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Dan S @7:37 Point taken. As Ive said - DonaldDrumpf like nothing so much as some lab experiment of an upside-down orange anus that talks smack about anyone else ...but one person he's never has a bad word for seems to be Putin.
	⚡ 7:40am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:37 trump wants capitalism in the mideast most likely gaza will be sacrificed in total towards achieving this
	7:42am Eric the Hat: Not to be a nihilist or a downer in any way. Just my realistic stance. Life doesn’t exist without consumption at the cost of everything around it. Without life, everything just functions pristinely.
	7:42am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Eric the Hat @7:38 Well that's right. One is neither a fan of Terrorism - nor of Imperialism. But of course the USA has massively supported the stronger side in this asymmetrical conflict. Genocide it is.
	7:42am The Matrix: Did the Bush family do 911?
	7:43am Eric the Hat: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:42 Totally. From the start.
	7:44am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Eric the Hat @7:42 There is the Cycle of Life. We are Alive. We have the choice of conducting this more or less Consciously. The Sixth Mass Extinction of Species in the entire History of the Earth is well underway. & Humans are responsible. I push back on the argument that it's only Humans endangering themselves ...as utterly Misanthropic as this is to begin with...
	⚡ 7:45am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dan S @7:37 not giving a shit about war crimes/genocide i guess is a first world problem
	7:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:45 Well it's only our Blood & Treasure sacrificed to Imperialism. As Eisenhower said in his parting missive - every missile &tc. is a hospital & a school not built...
	7:47am Eric the Hat: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:42 But also, the psychopath is a fan of both. And the very one whose intent is to be in control. It’ll be dope once all that remains are the machines of logic we leave in our wake
	⚡ 7:48am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:46 who's blood...?
	7:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Eric the Hat @7:47 Well - we're only talking about the Destiny of Humanity & the Living Earth.
	⚡ 7:49am newton: good morning brian & newsies
	7:49am The Matrix: Christ is King.
	7:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:48 The Blood & Lives of our Service Members if committed - as well as the Blood of others in their Civil Wars the USA insists on manipulating.
	⚡ 7:49am tom tom the pipers son: hi newton...
	7:50am Brian D: ↳ newton @7:49 Hey Newton!
	⚡ 7:51am newton: hi tom tom hi brian
	7:51am Dan S: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:45 Both sides in the Gaza conflict are guilty of war crimes, though it was Hamas that started this round. BTW, the death tolls in Sudan and the Congo have been higher than in Gaza, but the Gaza war eclipses them. Well, those other conflicts are in sub-Saharan Africa, so they get much less attention. It's just another example of First-World racism, I guess.
	⚡ 7:51am herb.nyc: Hola. As usual, lotsa serious sht here. And I like (Brian sez oligarchy tawk here? I’ll scroll up). But bec we all like to laugh (unless yr dead inside), I went to the nypl for the performing arts [for the joe don archive show this past monday (it happened. But not as planned)] and picked up a pamphlet. And learned this(cool, huh?)- Silent Clowns Saturdays \| 2:30 PM Feb 8, Mar 8, Apr 5 The Silent Clowns Film Series is New York's longest-running regularly scheduled silent film showcase. Our programming reaches the serious film buff by including rarely screened titles and rare prints, yet it also introduces kids and new audiences to the classics of the silent screen Screenings feature live piano accompaniment by MoMA's Ben Model, with an introduction and Q & A by film historians Model and Steve Massa.
	⚡ 7:52am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:49 this is getting away from gaza...no u.s servicemen in gaza.... blood being spilt is majority palestinian. like this needs to be even pointed out
	7:53am Brian D: ↳ herb.nyc @7:51 Good morning, Herb. Thank you for the tip. You always find great stuff.
	7:54am Eric the Hat: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:48 Oh. I was considering the end of life as a whole. All the gods and creatures will grasp maniacally till the bitter end, denying their mortality. But yeah. The point is no matter who is in control, they keep slaughtering the children out of fear. Forgive the stoner ramble
	7:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Dan S @7:51 Also less informed about the USA's (& the West's) involvement in the History of this.
	7:54am Dan S: Anyway, I've said my piece and it's time for me to move on. Thanks for the show, Brian!
	7:55am Brian D: ↳ Dan S @7:54 You're always welcome, Dan. Have a great day.
	⚡ 7:55am herb.nyc: ↳ Brian D @7:53 Woof, Brian. Thx for saying. I aims to please (but mainly for the older set. Wait, I do food scraps at Tompkins Sq pk tomw. The youth are gung ho and green. Cometh!)
	7:55am TDK60: At our pro-Palestine protests Sudan and Congo are mentioned often. A general movement against war and imperialism is needed. A tall order.
	7:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Eric the Hat @7:54 Seems fairly coherent to me.
	⚡ 7:56am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: Good stuff on here this morning, unfortunately punctuated by a troll or two.
	7:56am Eric the Hat: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:55 Hells yeah. Me too.
	⚡ 7:57am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dan S @7:51 true about the african genocides not getting world attention, but for the sake of this discussion it has the do with a genocide the u.s. is directly involved with and to make some kind of equivalency between hamas' and israelis war crimes is egregiously wrong
	7:57am Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Children of the Lord" by "Silver (51)" It's Complicated
	7:57am Eric the Hat: Just what I’ve realized is that the weird thing, fundamentally, is that life “struggles to find a way” at all costs. Just doesn’t feel right to me, and I’m looking forward to that oblivion.
	7:59am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If I had the key - I'd release the Hostages in a nanosecond. But it's not massive Palestine occupying tiny Israel. Is it ? The origins & the History of things matters.
	7:59am TDK60: ↳ TDK60 @7:55 ...and such a hoped-for movement increasingly ties in with an awareness of the climate catastrophe. Think of the power of a general antiwar movement wedded with a climate movement. Still possible...
	⚡ 7:59am herb.nyc: ↳ TDK60 @7:55 Hi to the youthful and green tdk60 Oh, the cure now. I just got their “Paris” live cd from nypl
	8:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Eric the Hat @7:57 This is a Cosmological question. Is Life also Nature ? If we discover it off the Earth - we might begin to understand better...
	8:01am TDK60: ↳ herb.nyc @7:59 Hello herb. Youthful? Golly, gracias. Hee. See ya at the food compost down at Union Square...
	⚡ 8:01am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:59 many palestinians are de facto hostages held in inhuman conditions in israeli prisons
	8:02am Toothgrinder Tom: His phone line’s dead, Jim.
	8:02am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:01 Oh it's always been an Apartheid.
	8:02am Brian D: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @8:02 Ha! Good morning, TT.
	8:03am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @8:02 Remember: Reagan & Thatcher were against Mandella - cause he was a 'Commie'...
	8:03am Mark T: Good morning
	8:04am Brian D: ↳ Mark T @8:03 Greetings, Mark.
	8:04am Toothgrinder Tom: Morning, Brian D.
	8:04am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...the USA has had Guantanamo & other Secret Prisons. Until the Facts are acknowledged there is no semblance of Democracy.
	⚡ 8:04am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:01 yr changing subject since '23 hundreds of palestinians have been rounded up without charges
	8:06am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:04 Not about me changing the subject @ all. You're right. The first victim of War is always Truth.
	8:06am Matty of Brooklyn: Morning all! My first listen of this show. Very good. Brian, I like what you're putting out there. You too, Rabbit.
	⚡ 8:07am newton: o there's jim
	8:07am Eric the Hat: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @8:00 Goddamn man. True dat. I’m sitting here typing out this ridiculously long reply… Life is just scared to death. Lol

	8:08am Matty from Brooklyn: Indeed, this is great radio
	8:09am Jim the Poet: I may need to be put in mono
	8:10am Brian D: ↳ Jim the Poet @8:09 Tried that.

	8:13am Brian D: ↳ herb.nyc @8:11 Aside from that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?
	⚡ 8:13am herb.nyc: ↳ Brian D @8:10 “Hi, mr hirschelhorn? Mr hirschelhorn? Are you on mute?…Mr hirschelhorn?”
	⚡ 8:13am newton: I came in to find a bigger discussion than I can read about a difficult and to me disgusting situation. I am scared that after monday the US will make things much worse. US, UK and the League of Nations have 150 years of guilt for making a bad situation incredibly worse. I dont expect they will make amends, and the people there can expect only to be played for politics
	8:13am Eric the Hat: Yes!
	8:14am Toothgrinder Tom: Hunger is the best sauce, they say.

	6:12am fred: ↳ Brian D @6:04 Back in college (business school) my English teacher told me not to attend her class because I'd be wasting my time there (she didn't have to tell me twice) Come finals time, the format was a 30 minute talk with the teacher about economics, but she told me I was free to ignore the guidelines. My topic was "small town America in David Lynch movies" She was a Lynch fan too, the exam just turned into a chat (in English, we kept it real), got an A+ grade
	6:13am Brian D: ↳ Cooh John @6:12 I love the Necks, generally. But this record, a single track, really, might be one of their best. I am debating playing the whole thing. We'll see...
	6:14am Brian D: ↳ fred @6:12 That is a great story. Kudos to that teacher.

	6:22am Eric the Hat: ↳ Brian D @6:17 I remember learning that Lynch and Donovan practiced TM and something about them holding massive sessions over the internet or something to that effect. Made sense to me. Considering Lynch’s method of harvesting ideas for his work from dreams.

	6:23am Brian D: ↳ Michael of Cologne @6:23 Good day, Michael. Hope all is well.
	6:23am fred: ↳ Brian D @6:14 I think she gave up on teaching me when she saw me trying Finnegans Wake (took me 20 more years to get through it though).

	7:25am Dan S: ↳ Song: "Clip: Sky News-Biden warns of 'oligarchy' in fare... I thought it was a good and significant speech. It may be remembered in a similar way to Pres. Eisenhower's farewell speech warning about the military-industrial complex.
	⚡ 7:25am tom tom the pipers son: any moral high ground/ warnings achievement of biden is totally eclipsed by the moral rot of funding of war on gaza unfortunately
	7:25am TDK60: ↳ Brian D @7:24 There's a last-minute push. I've been emailing friends to email others. The old phone tree idea.
	7:28am Nick K: How can anyone believe in a career fraud
	7:29am Brian D: ↳ Dan S @7:25 Respectfully, the oligarchy bit, though, is a bit of a "no shit, Sherlock." Money has long corrupted our politics, particularly since Citizens United. Good morning, Dan, by the way.
	7:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Dan S @7:25 Seems the clear intent ...ironic if Biden is excoriated for his relative Militarism. Next week we'll have a dictatorial strongman in the Oval Office - whom I presume will side with other strongmen all over the World as he always has - the Putins & Netanyahoos & so on. As Hitler did with Stalin @ least for a short while...
	⚡ 7:30am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: Good morning Brian and everyone.
	7:30am Brian D: ↳ Nick K @7:28 A question many of us will be asking for the next four years as well.
	7:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Brian D @7:29 Indeed - DonaldDrumpf would not exist in a healthy System.
	7:31am Brian D: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @7:30 Greetings, Peter.
	⚡ 7:31am tom tom the pipers son: unfortunate also is trump's use of american leverage showing the ease of stopping the war and showing up biden echoing reagan/ carter and the iran hostages... and of course this will be phase one of cease fire ...all bets off for phase 2
	7:31am Dan S: ↳ Brian D @7:29 Good morning. I agree with you about Citizens United and the fact that this corruption isn't new. Still, when a president calls it out in a major speech, it's noteworthy.
	7:32am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:31 Because Drumpf & Netanyahoo are of a kind - as I said.
	7:32am Brian D: ↳ Dan S @7:31 Fair point.
	⚡ 7:33am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:30 its not militarism, its hypocrisy... the fake liberal words and the funding of another country's war
	⚡ 7:34am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:33 genocide
	⚡ 7:34am NotARealDoctor: Good morning Brian and fellow surfers of the currents. We're up at the dog park chasing the ball this morning.
	7:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:33 Well it's both. Biden always like the Military & as a longtime career politician in the Senate & all favored War (by any other name).
	7:35am Brian D: ↳ NotARealDoctor @7:34 Good morning, NARD. Throw a ball for me.
	7:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:34 ...& I've even granted that on the plus side - that means Biden was informed about Foreign Policy & the stakes - @ the very least. The incoming Administration has no knowledge - no expertise - & no intent to Serve the People whatsoever. Biden reportedly in private has exclaimed that Netanyahoo was a 'f*cking liar' - but that's in the past now...
	7:37am Dan S: At this point, I mostly don't give a shit about the Israelis or the Palestinians. I'm sick of both of them. I'm much more concerned about the Ukrainians and the likelihood that Trump will sell them out to the Russians. Mostly, I'm more concerned with what Trump's regime will mean for struggling Americans. Nothing good, tha's what.
	7:37am dale: morning. great music as always.
	7:38am Brian D: ↳ dale @7:37 Hello, Dale.
	7:38am Eric the Hat: ↳ Dan S @7:37 Life is the problem.
	7:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Dan S @7:37 Point taken. As Ive said - DonaldDrumpf like nothing so much as some lab experiment of an upside-down orange anus that talks smack about anyone else ...but one person he's never has a bad word for seems to be Putin.
	⚡ 7:40am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:37 trump wants capitalism in the mideast most likely gaza will be sacrificed in total towards achieving this
	7:42am Eric the Hat: Not to be a nihilist or a downer in any way. Just my realistic stance. Life doesn’t exist without consumption at the cost of everything around it. Without life, everything just functions pristinely.
	7:42am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Eric the Hat @7:38 Well that's right. One is neither a fan of Terrorism - nor of Imperialism. But of course the USA has massively supported the stronger side in this asymmetrical conflict. Genocide it is.
	7:42am The Matrix: Did the Bush family do 911?
	7:43am Eric the Hat: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:42 Totally. From the start.
	7:44am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Eric the Hat @7:42 There is the Cycle of Life. We are Alive. We have the choice of conducting this more or less Consciously. The Sixth Mass Extinction of Species in the entire History of the Earth is well underway. & Humans are responsible. I push back on the argument that it's only Humans endangering themselves ...as utterly Misanthropic as this is to begin with...
	⚡ 7:45am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dan S @7:37 not giving a shit about war crimes/genocide i guess is a first world problem
	7:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:45 Well it's only our Blood & Treasure sacrificed to Imperialism. As Eisenhower said in his parting missive - every missile &tc. is a hospital & a school not built...
	7:47am Eric the Hat: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:42 But also, the psychopath is a fan of both. And the very one whose intent is to be in control. It’ll be dope once all that remains are the machines of logic we leave in our wake
	⚡ 7:48am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:46 who's blood...?
	7:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Eric the Hat @7:47 Well - we're only talking about the Destiny of Humanity & the Living Earth.
	⚡ 7:49am newton: good morning brian & newsies
	7:49am The Matrix: Christ is King.
	7:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:48 The Blood & Lives of our Service Members if committed - as well as the Blood of others in their Civil Wars the USA insists on manipulating.
	⚡ 7:49am tom tom the pipers son: hi newton...
	7:50am Brian D: ↳ newton @7:49 Hey Newton!
	⚡ 7:51am newton: hi tom tom hi brian
	7:51am Dan S: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:45 Both sides in the Gaza conflict are guilty of war crimes, though it was Hamas that started this round. BTW, the death tolls in Sudan and the Congo have been higher than in Gaza, but the Gaza war eclipses them. Well, those other conflicts are in sub-Saharan Africa, so they get much less attention. It's just another example of First-World racism, I guess.
	⚡ 7:51am herb.nyc: Hola. As usual, lotsa serious sht here. And I like (Brian sez oligarchy tawk here? I’ll scroll up). But bec we all like to laugh (unless yr dead inside), I went to the nypl for the performing arts [for the joe don archive show this past monday (it happened. But not as planned)] and picked up a pamphlet. And learned this(cool, huh?)- Silent Clowns Saturdays \| 2:30 PM Feb 8, Mar 8, Apr 5 The Silent Clowns Film Series is New York's longest-running regularly scheduled silent film showcase. Our programming reaches the serious film buff by including rarely screened titles and rare prints, yet it also introduces kids and new audiences to the classics of the silent screen Screenings feature live piano accompaniment by MoMA's Ben Model, with an introduction and Q & A by film historians Model and Steve Massa.
	⚡ 7:52am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:49 this is getting away from gaza...no u.s servicemen in gaza.... blood being spilt is majority palestinian. like this needs to be even pointed out
	7:53am Brian D: ↳ herb.nyc @7:51 Good morning, Herb. Thank you for the tip. You always find great stuff.
	7:54am Eric the Hat: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:48 Oh. I was considering the end of life as a whole. All the gods and creatures will grasp maniacally till the bitter end, denying their mortality. But yeah. The point is no matter who is in control, they keep slaughtering the children out of fear. Forgive the stoner ramble
	7:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Dan S @7:51 Also less informed about the USA's (& the West's) involvement in the History of this.
	7:54am Dan S: Anyway, I've said my piece and it's time for me to move on. Thanks for the show, Brian!
	7:55am Brian D: ↳ Dan S @7:54 You're always welcome, Dan. Have a great day.
	⚡ 7:55am herb.nyc: ↳ Brian D @7:53 Woof, Brian. Thx for saying. I aims to please (but mainly for the older set. Wait, I do food scraps at Tompkins Sq pk tomw. The youth are gung ho and green. Cometh!)
	7:55am TDK60: At our pro-Palestine protests Sudan and Congo are mentioned often. A general movement against war and imperialism is needed. A tall order.
	7:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Eric the Hat @7:54 Seems fairly coherent to me.
	⚡ 7:56am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: Good stuff on here this morning, unfortunately punctuated by a troll or two.
	7:56am Eric the Hat: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:55 Hells yeah. Me too.
	⚡ 7:57am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dan S @7:51 true about the african genocides not getting world attention, but for the sake of this discussion it has the do with a genocide the u.s. is directly involved with and to make some kind of equivalency between hamas' and israelis war crimes is egregiously wrong
	7:57am Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Children of the Lord" by "Silver (51)" It's Complicated
	7:57am Eric the Hat: Just what I’ve realized is that the weird thing, fundamentally, is that life “struggles to find a way” at all costs. Just doesn’t feel right to me, and I’m looking forward to that oblivion.
	7:59am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If I had the key - I'd release the Hostages in a nanosecond. But it's not massive Palestine occupying tiny Israel. Is it ? The origins & the History of things matters.
	7:59am TDK60: ↳ TDK60 @7:55 ...and such a hoped-for movement increasingly ties in with an awareness of the climate catastrophe. Think of the power of a general antiwar movement wedded with a climate movement. Still possible...
	⚡ 7:59am herb.nyc: ↳ TDK60 @7:55 Hi to the youthful and green tdk60 Oh, the cure now. I just got their “Paris” live cd from nypl
	8:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Eric the Hat @7:57 This is a Cosmological question. Is Life also Nature ? If we discover it off the Earth - we might begin to understand better...

	⚡ 8:13am newton: I came in to find a bigger discussion than I can read about a difficult and to me disgusting situation. I am scared that after monday the US will make things much worse. US, UK and the League of Nations have 150 years of guilt for making a bad situation incredibly worse. I dont expect they will make amends, and the people there can expect only to be played for politics
	8:13am Eric the Hat: Yes!

	8:19am StringOFperils: The USA intends to make things a lot worse. Globally. That's the f***ing plan on the desk. And the $ will go into Silicon Valley-developed defense systems to erase whatever gets in the way. There IS no country.
