	♥ 1:01pm fred: Greetings Krys and all
	1:02pm Roger: Hey Krys! Hope you have a great show! Going to be hard to leave after that opening, but I gotta go!
	1:02pm Mr Fab: Krys OH! Great to hear a different bush tetras song than the one that usually gets played. Which are classics, but I wasn’t familiar with that one.
	♥ 1:02pm Krys O.: Hi, fred, Roger, Mr. Fab!
	1:04pm tofurkey_sandwich: Rest in peace, the beautiful, incredible, special person that is Barbara Ess. I miss her guidance in my life very much.
	1:04pm Mr Fab: 99 Records were great! I had this Y Pants ep. Probably bought it for $.99. Have no idea how much it would be worth now, I shutter to think…
	♥ 1:06pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @1:04 My friends and I went record shopping there sometimes when we made the journey to NYC from Westchester County. The train ride took about 50 minutes, then we rode the subway downtown.
	♥ 1:07pm Krys O.: ↳ tofurkey_sandwich @1:04 Hello, tofurkey_sandwich. Best wishes to you.
	1:08pm Mr Fab: I think I might’ve visited the shop, at least once, when my family would take our regular trips to New York to visit family. It was pretty far downtown, wasn’t it?

	♥ 1:25pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @1:22 Yup, and he was in Sonic Youth early on as well. I recommend the Blank City documentary that covers No Wave cinema. I went to a screening hosted by Amos Poe. I still have a copy of it on DVD.

	♥ 1:39pm coelacanth∅: ...i always thought it was probably "yoot" -like a utility vehicle in oz; but then i guess that'd be spelled "ute".
	♥ 1:40pm Krys O.: ↳ gauche knee @1:38 Thank you kindly. No, nothing published or blogged really.
	1:40pm Mr Fab: We have a show here on Sheena‘s called “beneath the underground“ that often focuses on downtown New York. If you were digging the sounds of 99 records and all that crazy no wave jazz.
	♥ 1:41pm Krys O.: Hi, Ciggy! I was posting about the Left Bank on Thursday on the Wake comments board. Todd mentioned them in his phone call to Clay.
	♥ 1:41pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @1:40 I second that!
	♥ 1:41pm yerfriendpaul: Love the narrator's voice. I feel like he was THE narrator during this time period
	♥ 1:42pm Krys O.: Miss Backspace...LOL!
	♥ 1:43pm Ciggy: ↳ Krys O. @1:41 Ha - I'll check it out
	♥ 1:44pm gauche knee: Ha, this is amazing, I’m never getting off this ride 🎢
	♥ 1:44pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @1:41 That's Art Gilmore. Do you recognize O'Hanlon's voice?
	1:44pm Mr Fab: Oh my gawd, this is so sample-able.
	♥ 1:44pm yerfriendpaul: This is great!
	♥ 1:45pm yerfriendpaul: I don't think I do. Was he in something that is I might know?
	♥ 1:45pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @1:44 There's a bunch of these shorts.
	♥ 1:46pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @1:45 Wait and see.
	♥ 1:48pm yerfriendpaul: Ahhh!!!
	1:48pm Arvo: ↳ Song: "So You Think You're a Nervous Wreck?" by "Joe McD... This reminds me of a favorite episode of The Twilight Zone where a man about to commit a crime has a conversation with himself (about cowardice) in the mirror.
	♥ 1:52pm Krys O.: ↳ Arvo @1:48 Is that about a dictatorship somewhere in Central America?
	1:53pm Roger: I made it home and back to listening!
	♥ 1:53pm Krys O.: ↳ Roger @1:53 Welcome back!
	1:53pm HyperDose: Funky Krys!
	♥ 1:53pm Krys O.: Hey, HyperDose!
	1:54pm Arvo: ↳ Krys O. @1:52 It is about a guy who has been in and out of jail and is kinda pressured into doing a hit for some crime boss.
	♥ 1:55pm gauche knee: ↳ Mr Fab @1:40 thnx Mr Fab, will do. I actually just “discovered” a slew of shows on this wonderful side of FMU this wk…late to the party but what a f’n party🎉 Just downloaded your David Johanson ep…looking forward.
	1:55pm Arvo: ↳ Arvo @1:48 I think I might remember the episode you are talking about, though.
	1:58pm Arvo: ↳ Song: "Baby, I'm a Want You" by "Jerry Butler" RIP Jerry Butler! Just looked him up to find he died. Being from Chicago, The impressions were... Uh... Impressive.
	1:58pm Roger: ↳ gauche knee @1:55 glad you did! Spread the word!
	♥ 1:59pm Krys O.: ↳ Arvo @1:58 He was 86. So bummed.
	2:04pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "Wild is the Wind" by "Joe Bonner" phenomenal key work
	2:15pm Erik in VT: 👋 hi all. Love the Joe McD short films that can occasionally be see on TCM. Indeed akin to the great Robert Benchley short films on life’s foibles. Which guy did his short pieces first? 👉re 99Records: during the very brief time it lasted, Twas a total must visit destination for THE most unique & wonderful international imports in nyc at the time. Dropped some serious youthful $$$ each eye-popping visit.
	♥ 2:19pm Krys O.: ↳ Erik in VT @2:15 Hi, Erik! I believe that Benchley was first.
	♥ 2:19pm Krys O.: ↳ Song: "One for Juan" by "Jimmy Heath" I didn't know that Jimmy Heath was Mtume's father.
	♥ 2:22pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Krys and the coastrated! 🎢
	♥ 2:24pm Krys O.: Howdy, Ken!
	♥ 2:26pm Ciggy: ↳ HyperDose @2:04 Hyperdose - last week I binged Taboo for the 1st time in years. So excellent.
	♥ 2:27pm fred: I'm planning my pledges but it's harder than usual this year: I usually pledge to new shows, to make them feel welcome, but there are not that many on the main stream (Jody, Matty and Cricket, in my listening hours at least). Any rec on one I should check out on Sheena or Drummer?
	♥ 2:29pm WR: Can't think if any new Sheena or Drummer shows since the fall fund raiser. Except Mr Fab on Friday.
	♥ 2:30pm Krys O.: ↳ WR @2:29 That's right and there's Summer Camp, a new Wiggle Room of sorts.
	🎢 ♥ 2:31pm Dan S: I just submitted my list of favorite shows for the 2025 March Marathon. Hard to choose; at my pledge level, I'm allowed 12 selections max. That sounds like a lot, but it was easy to fill up. Since I'm listening now, I included Free-Form Roller Coaster. Lucky you, Krys O! :-)
	♥ 2:32pm Krys O.: ↳ Dan S @2:31 Aw, shucks! That's so kind of you. Thank you!
	♥ 2:33pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Song: "Dream" by "Betty Johnson" Ooh! Such great harmonies
	♥ 2:34pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:33 Peak rock and pop production thanks to Atlantic Records.
	♥ 2:38pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:30 My idea is to encourage new DJs who might feel insecure, so Mr Fab isn't a good fit since he runs the stream. I guess I'll add Miss Mei (not new, but newish to me) and an older fave I never pledged big to (many choices there)
	♥ 2:39pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Song: "AEIOU Sometimes Y" by "Ebn-Ozn" Oh my gosh - I haven’t heard this one in decades!
	🎢 ♥ 2:40pm Dan S: ↳ fred @2:27 Sure, I could suggest several, including Dark Night of the Soul and Acid Jazz Hands on Drummer, and New Flanland on Sheena's.
	♥ 2:41pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:39 Ha! It walked a fine line between being a joke and really funky.
	♥ 2:41pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "AEIOU Sometimes Y" by "Ebn-Ozn" Lola... Lola... Lola 😃
	♥ 2:42pm Krys O.: ↳ Ciggy @2:41 That line!
	♥ 2:42pm fred: ↳ Dan S @2:40 These are not new shows: I did pledge to Julie and Bronwyn's first marathon, and these were years ago
	🎢 ♥ 2:43pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "AEIOU Sometimes Y" by "Ebn-Ozn" This one's a trip!
	♥ 2:43pm Krys O.: ↳ Song: "AEIOU Sometimes Y" by "Ebn-Ozn" This was supposedly the first single composed on the Fairlight.
	♥ 2:43pm Krys O.: ↳ Dan S @2:43 It seemed to follow Music for the Last Couple on a couple of levels.
	🎢 ♥ 2:46pm Dan S: ↳ fred @2:42 OK, I understand. Of the new shows, the only one I can think of that I favorited was Everybody's Songs, but that's on the mothership and I think you already mentioned it.
	♥ 2:48pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:43 Sounds late, but I guess the key word is "single". Pretty Sure Peter Gabriel used it earlier, maybe Kate Bush too
	♥ 2:48pm Krys O.: In case the listeners don't know, I pre-record my shows. Unfortunately I don't have a set up to do a live show. I'm up late on Friday nights putting the show together after working a long day at work. My brain is tired, yet it still manages to function on a subconscious level to create a radio show. Sleep deprivation was key to my old shows on WFMU in the 80s also.
	🎢 ♥ 2:50pm Dan S: ↳ Dan S @2:46 Oh, and also Dance With Me, Stanley, which isn't strictly new but was on hiatus for a while, so it's sort of new. Of course, it's also on the mothership.
	♥ 2:51pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @2:48 I know what you mean. XTC used a Fairlight on the Big Express album. They thank Curt and Roland of Tears for Fears for their guidance with it. Curt and Roland mastered the very difficult Fairlight early on.
	2:51pm Mr Fab: ↳ fred @2:48 yeah, she used it on "The Dreaming," whenever that came out. Didn't Art of Noise start around then?
	🎢 ♥ 2:52pm Dan S: ↳ Krys O. @2:48 That's interesting, that you pre-record the show but go on the comments board live to chat. It makes this show kind of a hybrid. :-)
	♥ 2:52pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:51 1983
	2:54pm Mr Fab: The Sheena's schedule is so full, we can't really add too many new shows anymore. Unless I clone myself.
	♥ 2:54pm yerfriendpaul: Thank you Krys!!
	♥ 2:55pm fred: ↳ Dan S @2:50 Stashu doesn't need my help soothing her nerves, she got married on the air for "Bob"'s sake
	♥ 2:55pm Krys O.: Thank you for hanging out, everyone!
	♥ 2:55pm fred: Thanks Krys!
	🎢 ♥ 2:56pm Dan S: ↳ Krys O. @2:55 You're welcome, and have a great week!
	2:56pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Set the House Ablaze" by "The Jam" Yes!! This Jam is the JAM.
	🎢 ♥ 2:56pm Dan S: ↳ fred @2:55 She sometimes sounds like a crazy nervous wreck on the air, but I think that's part of the act.
	♥ 2:57pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "Set the House Ablaze" by "The Jam" Missed out seeing The Jam at The Paladium mid 80s. The Gun Club opened up for them. I had to work at Wanamaker's.
	♥ 2:57pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:56 My favorite album of theirs. I still have my copy which is saying something because my once hefty record collection was decimated many years ago. But that's another story, like Lou Jacobi says in Irma La Douce.
	♥ 2:58pm Krys O.: ↳ Ciggy @2:57 Saw The Jam at The Ritz. Wonderful show.
	♥ 2:59pm gauche knee: ↳ Krys O. @2:48 Thanks for disclosure, sounds great & fantastic show! RIP Buckler 💐
	♥ 2:59pm Ciggy: ↳ Krys O. @2:58 Only one show for me at The Ritz - APB
	♥ 3:30pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Krys!

	♥ 2:27pm fred: I'm planning my pledges but it's harder than usual this year: I usually pledge to new shows, to make them feel welcome, but there are not that many on the main stream (Jody, Matty and Cricket, in my listening hours at least). Any rec on one I should check out on Sheena or Drummer?
	♥ 2:29pm WR: Can't think if any new Sheena or Drummer shows since the fall fund raiser. Except Mr Fab on Friday.
	♥ 2:30pm Krys O.: ↳ WR @2:29 That's right and there's Summer Camp, a new Wiggle Room of sorts.
	🎢 ♥ 2:31pm Dan S: I just submitted my list of favorite shows for the 2025 March Marathon. Hard to choose; at my pledge level, I'm allowed 12 selections max. That sounds like a lot, but it was easy to fill up. Since I'm listening now, I included Free-Form Roller Coaster. Lucky you, Krys O! :-)
	♥ 2:32pm Krys O.: ↳ Dan S @2:31 Aw, shucks! That's so kind of you. Thank you!
	♥ 2:33pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Song: "Dream" by "Betty Johnson" Ooh! Such great harmonies
	♥ 2:34pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:33 Peak rock and pop production thanks to Atlantic Records.
	♥ 2:38pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:30 My idea is to encourage new DJs who might feel insecure, so Mr Fab isn't a good fit since he runs the stream. I guess I'll add Miss Mei (not new, but newish to me) and an older fave I never pledged big to (many choices there)
	♥ 2:39pm yerfriendpaul: ↳ Song: "AEIOU Sometimes Y" by "Ebn-Ozn" Oh my gosh - I haven’t heard this one in decades!
	🎢 ♥ 2:40pm Dan S: ↳ fred @2:27 Sure, I could suggest several, including Dark Night of the Soul and Acid Jazz Hands on Drummer, and New Flanland on Sheena's.
	♥ 2:41pm Krys O.: ↳ yerfriendpaul @2:39 Ha! It walked a fine line between being a joke and really funky.
	♥ 2:41pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "AEIOU Sometimes Y" by "Ebn-Ozn" Lola... Lola... Lola 😃
	♥ 2:42pm Krys O.: ↳ Ciggy @2:41 That line!
	♥ 2:42pm fred: ↳ Dan S @2:40 These are not new shows: I did pledge to Julie and Bronwyn's first marathon, and these were years ago
	🎢 ♥ 2:43pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "AEIOU Sometimes Y" by "Ebn-Ozn" This one's a trip!
	♥ 2:43pm Krys O.: ↳ Song: "AEIOU Sometimes Y" by "Ebn-Ozn" This was supposedly the first single composed on the Fairlight.
	♥ 2:43pm Krys O.: ↳ Dan S @2:43 It seemed to follow Music for the Last Couple on a couple of levels.
	🎢 ♥ 2:46pm Dan S: ↳ fred @2:42 OK, I understand. Of the new shows, the only one I can think of that I favorited was Everybody's Songs, but that's on the mothership and I think you already mentioned it.
	♥ 2:48pm fred: ↳ Krys O. @2:43 Sounds late, but I guess the key word is "single". Pretty Sure Peter Gabriel used it earlier, maybe Kate Bush too
	♥ 2:48pm Krys O.: In case the listeners don't know, I pre-record my shows. Unfortunately I don't have a set up to do a live show. I'm up late on Friday nights putting the show together after working a long day at work. My brain is tired, yet it still manages to function on a subconscious level to create a radio show. Sleep deprivation was key to my old shows on WFMU in the 80s also.
	🎢 ♥ 2:50pm Dan S: ↳ Dan S @2:46 Oh, and also Dance With Me, Stanley, which isn't strictly new but was on hiatus for a while, so it's sort of new. Of course, it's also on the mothership.
	♥ 2:51pm Krys O.: ↳ fred @2:48 I know what you mean. XTC used a Fairlight on the Big Express album. They thank Curt and Roland of Tears for Fears for their guidance with it. Curt and Roland mastered the very difficult Fairlight early on.
	2:51pm Mr Fab: ↳ fred @2:48 yeah, she used it on "The Dreaming," whenever that came out. Didn't Art of Noise start around then?
	🎢 ♥ 2:52pm Dan S: ↳ Krys O. @2:48 That's interesting, that you pre-record the show but go on the comments board live to chat. It makes this show kind of a hybrid. :-)
	♥ 2:52pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:51 1983
	2:54pm Mr Fab: The Sheena's schedule is so full, we can't really add too many new shows anymore. Unless I clone myself.
	♥ 2:54pm yerfriendpaul: Thank you Krys!!
	♥ 2:55pm fred: ↳ Dan S @2:50 Stashu doesn't need my help soothing her nerves, she got married on the air for "Bob"'s sake
	♥ 2:55pm Krys O.: Thank you for hanging out, everyone!
	♥ 2:55pm fred: Thanks Krys!
	🎢 ♥ 2:56pm Dan S: ↳ Krys O. @2:55 You're welcome, and have a great week!
	2:56pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Set the House Ablaze" by "The Jam" Yes!! This Jam is the JAM.
	🎢 ♥ 2:56pm Dan S: ↳ fred @2:55 She sometimes sounds like a crazy nervous wreck on the air, but I think that's part of the act.
	♥ 2:57pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "Set the House Ablaze" by "The Jam" Missed out seeing The Jam at The Paladium mid 80s. The Gun Club opened up for them. I had to work at Wanamaker's.
	♥ 2:57pm Krys O.: ↳ Mr Fab @2:56 My favorite album of theirs. I still have my copy which is saying something because my once hefty record collection was decimated many years ago. But that's another story, like Lou Jacobi says in Irma La Douce.
	♥ 2:58pm Krys O.: ↳ Ciggy @2:57 Saw The Jam at The Ritz. Wonderful show.
	♥ 2:59pm gauche knee: ↳ Krys O. @2:48 Thanks for disclosure, sounds great & fantastic show! RIP Buckler 💐
	♥ 2:59pm Ciggy: ↳ Krys O. @2:58 Only one show for me at The Ritz - APB
	♥ 3:30pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Krys!
