	🥁 ♥ 7:30pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Kat in the chat @7:16 I got that email, too. The one state SSA office is down to ONE worker. ONE. They all quit or were forced out. One worker. Handling all SSA issues for the entire state of Vermont, where 1 in 4 residents collect social security. Yup. ONE IN FOUR. Just shy of 162,000 people. I'm one of them. That wasn't mentioned in that fucking lick-spittle email. Fucking bastards. I'm gonna go fold some laundry.
	🥁 ♥ 7:30pm tom tom the pipers son: actually the story went bullet to the head in a gravel pit
	🥁 ♥ 7:31pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @7:30 That is INSANE.
	🥁 ♥ 7:33pm newton: Im supposed to go in to SSA this month to set up SS and medicare starting November.
	🥁 ♥ 7:34pm Kat in the chat: ↳ newton @7:33 Good luck. I am postponing SS as long as I can, but I have to deal with Medicare soon.
	🥁 ♥ 7:35pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Kat in the chat @7:31 Yeah. I'm teetering on the edge of rage here. I'm also trying to be mindful of the following: We have no idea what will happen. We have each other, because that's all we ever had. This is all impermanent. This too shall pass. What goes around, comes around. There's a noose somewhere already being knotted. We just have to wait for it to encircle the proper neck. Keep loving those you love.
	🥁 ♥ 7:35pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @7:35 Love you, Wendo. Fold that laundry :)
	♥ 7:35pm A.J. MACHETE: Happy 4th of a Lie!

	🥁 ♥ 7:37pm Kat in the chat: ↳ A.J. MACHETE @7:35 That's a good one. I am finding that I have extra feelings about this now that I live in Philly and am around the historical sites.
	7:38pm WR: Hello Rich and folks
	🥁 ♥ 7:38pm pot8o: bring forth the asshole music!
	🥁 ♥ 7:38pm newton: wasnt jimmy swaggart always dead?
	♥ 7:38pm A.J. MACHETE: ↳ Kat in the chat @7:37 I don't envy.
	♥ 7:38pm Rich in Washington: ↳ WR @7:38 Hi WR!
	♥ 7:39pm Rich in Washington: ↳ pot8o @7:38 careful what you ask for!
	🥁 ♥ 7:39pm Kat in the chat: Not much boom booms yet here. I'm less than a mile from the Art Museum where they do one of Philly's official displays though. I can walk to the corner for a great view, but I might just stay home with the AC on and watch a partial view from the living room window.
	🥁 ♥ 7:41pm pot8o: ↳ newton @7:38 his soul sure was, maybe the heat of hell will make it move a little like frog legs
	🥁 ♥ 7:41pm Kat in the chat: The celebration at the Art Museum is not as planned though, because two of the entertainers pulled out because city workers here are on strike and scab workers are handling the event. Headliner was LL Cool J and he is in support of the union.
	♥ 7:41pm A.J. MACHETE: ↳ Song: "Murder by Numbers" by "Frank Zappa & Sting" I thought Zappa was just joking, like he was about to say something unkind about Sting. That intro is priceless.
	🥁 ♥ 7:42pm Kat in the chat: Comments no longer lagging for me btw. We are missing our first scheduled garbage pickup tomorrow, trash already piled up in other areas of the city.
	🥁 ♥ 7:42pm newton: Im not advocating anything, I do think people should know history. Verushka's father was involved in the attempt to assassin8 hitler. I wish my father had ever done anything I could be proud of
	🥁 ♥ 7:43pm Kat in the chat: And public transit scheduled to be cut by 45% early next year if we don't get state funding. First round of cuts in August.
	♥ 7:44pm A.J. MACHETE: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @7:35 Hey, Wendy. Welcome to a declining America.
	🥁 ♥ 7:44pm Kat in the chat: I shoulda known Rudy Schwartz would have a Swaggart song
	🥁 ♥ 7:45pm pot8o: I'm proud that Rudy is from my hometown
	♥ 7:46pm Rich in Washington: hope no one's listening with children in the room. But you should know my shows by now, so there's that.
	🥁 ♥ 7:47pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Jimmy Swaggart" by "The Rudy Schwartz Project" this sounds like it is being read from testimonials
	🥁 ♥ 7:47pm Kat in the chat: ↳ pot8o @7:45 As you should be!
	7:47pm WR: Extra comedy for jazz police by Zappa band slipping into a classic cool jazz composition at the end of Muder by Nunbers. Couldn't recall the name of it. Where is Doctorjazz when I need him?
	🥁 ♥ 7:47pm newton: ↳ Rich in Washington @7:46 they shouldn't learn it in the streets, or sundae school
	🥁 ♥ 7:47pm Kat in the chat: ↳ WR @7:47 Probably listening to jazz :)
	🥁 ♥ 7:47pm pot8o: ↳ Kat in the chat @7:47 also home to charlie haden and the everly brothers!

	🥁 ♥ 7:51pm Wendy del Formaggio: What was it Ricardo said during that mic-break? "Dum-dums in boom-boom town"? That sounds like the title of an autobiography if'n I ever heard one.
	🥁 ♥ 7:51pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Today" by "Escape Mechanism" Escape Mechanism being Jon Nelson who appears in rotation on the Wiggle Room on Sheena's
	♥ 7:52pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @7:51 Indeed!
	🥁 ♥ 7:53pm newton: takes one to know one
	🥁 ♥ 7:55pm pot8o: is this just swaggart trying to claim following the grateful dead as a tax writeoff?
	🥁 ♥ 7:56pm newton: he was a double agent in hell doing god's work
	🥁 ♥ 7:58pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ newton @7:56 a fireman’s got to go where the fire is…… sssizzzzle…hot!
	🥁 ♥ 7:59pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "American Dream" by "Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young" omfg…. this !!!!!

	🥁 ♥ 8:01pm tom tom the pipers son: csny jump on the zamfir bandwagon
	🥁 ♥ 8:05pm tom tom the pipers son: frank should have covered frank sinatra in this mode….frankly frank...
	🥁 ♥ 8:05pm Kat in the chat: I was dealing with my ongoing domestic issue during CSNY and missed it, which is probably just as well
	🥁 ♥ 8:06pm newton: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:05 knobs?
	♥ 8:06pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Heavenly Bank Account" by "Frank Zappa" Tell it, Frank.

	♥ 8:09pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:08 That sucks, Kat! What's goin' on?
	🥁 ♥ 8:10pm newton: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:08 2 weeks ago my landlord thought it only right that I shouldnt have hot water for the weekend in a heat wave
	♥ 8:12pm Rich in Washington: ↳ newton @8:10 Ugh. I'm sorry!
	🥁 ♥ 8:13pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @8:09 bullshit with a broken doorknob that I had to temp fix myself today, didn't have confidence in the fix so I stayed home all day, and now I am stuck here waiting for a contractor tomorrow till who knows when
	🥁 ♥ 8:13pm newton: ↳ newton @8:10 still a functional lockable door is more a necessity

	🥁 ♥ 8:16pm Kat in the chat: ↳ newton @8:13 when your neighborhood is going to be overrun after dark with people from all over partying with fireworks and who knows what intoxicants, yeah I would like to have the door secured. It was open when I tried to leave and go to the coffeeshop this morning, my neighbor had pulled the doorknob out accidentally (our door has been sticking) and just left it as is and gone to the grocery store with the kids that are staying with her
	8:17pm Don-O: ↳ Rich in Washington @8:14 We just started our annual AZ summer hibernation when the sun get too hot to breath outside. Hell, I might go for a walk tomorrow morning.....6 am when it's 85 degrees...
	🥁 ♥ 8:17pm Kat in the chat: She came back when I was fixing it myself after my landlord said he couldn't get anyone there because of the holiday
	🥁 ♥ 8:18pm Kat in the chat: ↳ newton @8:14 I skip showers on a fairly reg basis since I work from home, but by the third day I need one. Would not be happy about that one either.
	🥁 ♥ 8:20pm newton: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:18 I hope I wasn't trivializing. home security is real. I like to be clean, but I am not offended or endangered by my humanity
	🥁 ♥ 8:20pm ultradamno: Gizmos 30% off sale mastodon.social...
	8:21pm Sufferwords: twin spin deserved
	🥁 ♥ 8:22pm A Bump in Burbank: ↳ Song: "Let's Lynch The Landlord" by "Dead Kennedys" East Bay Ray is incredibly underrated.
	🥁 ♥ 8:22pm ultradamno: Rebekah Del Rio's Star Spangled Banner from Southland Tales www.youtube.com...
	🥁 ♥ 8:23pm ultradamno: I always thought he owed a lot to Jo Callis' playing in Rezillos, esp. Bad Guy Reaction.
	🥁 ♥ 8:25pm newton: who is salmon dave?
	🥁 ♥ 8:26pm Kat in the chat: LOL thank you Rich. Although I don't totally blame the landlord, he apparently tried to talk all the contractors he uses into coming and they refused because a) holiday and b) gridlock in the neighborhood because of the big holiday event. Still fucking pissed though because I have had a miserable stretch at work and needed this break. Maybe I'll burn an actual vacation day later in the month.
	🥁 ♥ 8:27pm Kat in the chat: Also I forgot about the Folkways version of Fresh Fruit, lol
	♥ 8:27pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:27 Super rare.

	🥁 ♥ 8:31pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Nothing" by "Fugs" didn’t know the fugs freaked out like this… sounds like haino
	🥁 ♥ 8:31pm newton: no one ever says, "Shall I compare thee to a summer's eve..."
	🥁 ♥ 8:33pm ultradamno: Someone needs to deluxe reissue Tales of Captain Black
	🥁 ♥ 8:33pm tom tom the pipers son: euphemism for being called a douche?
	🥁 ♥ 8:33pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ newton @8:31 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

	🥁 ♥ 10:45pm MHLee: ↳ ultradamno @10:44 They keep saying that. There's like two organizations that say this over and over again to try to get funding. I forgot the whole of it

	♥ 10:53pm Rich in Washington: Sonny getting laughed at for being a Hollywood hippie wannabee in his shag caveman vests and bowl haircut.
	🥁 ♥ 10:54pm ultradamno: Riley Reid tells a story of taking three tabs of double dipped acid with two friends (I think this was a problem on the SATs) that, while pretty funny, would probably be more effective at dissuading people...at least from megadosing www.youtube.com...
	🥁 ♥ 10:54pm pot8o: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:52 make me want to book a pilgrimage to the bellows falls yacht club (always wanted to book a hotel and then just wander around new england and new york going to concerts and stuff, probably to coincide w/ the fmu record fair)
	10:54pm laurapanic: ↳ Aitch @10:51 I wish they had done that the time I was in Campbelltown Hospital with my mate who called the ambulance ON HIMSELF because he was tripping so hard. So they made him drink CHARCOAL which made him freak out as it got on his hands and everything he touched. Fuck it was hilarious. Until the nurse found out he was a teacher. They wouldn't let me take him home though. But they did not offer valium. Ugh.
	🥁 ♥ 10:55pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:53 I like that your avatar has Sluggo saying, "No," and mine has Nancy saying, "I can't." It's a nice combo.

	🥁 ♥ 10:56pm Aitch: ↳ laurapanic @10:54 last place you want to go tripping is a hospital, lordy.

	10:57pm laurapanic: EVERYBODY SING!!! "pammie's on a bummerrrrrrr nowwwwww"
	🥁 ♥ 10:57pm tom tom the pipers son: the basic lesson i’m taking from music for assholes… is everybody mind your own business
	🥁 ♥ 10:57pm pot8o: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:55 i finally have a car now, so that's a major part of it, now i just need money because that's probably going to be to the tune of at least a couple grand

The Radio Is Broken with Rich In Washington: Playlist from July 4, 2025

View Rich in Washington's profile

The Radio Is Broken is a three-hour spelunk through the canyons and fissures of humanity's collective unconscious. It sounds as if a field recording of the Culture Industry were a sonic juggernaut barreling down a rickety track—except that tunnel ahead is just painted onto a sheer cliff wall. With occasional forays into what might pass for "normal" music. Prerequisite journey: Cratedigger's Lung

	🥁 ♥ 7:30pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Kat in the chat @7:16 I got that email, too. The one state SSA office is down to ONE worker. ONE. They all quit or were forced out. One worker. Handling all SSA issues for the entire state of Vermont, where 1 in 4 residents collect social security. Yup. ONE IN FOUR. Just shy of 162,000 people. I'm one of them. That wasn't mentioned in that fucking lick-spittle email. Fucking bastards. I'm gonna go fold some laundry.
	🥁 ♥ 7:30pm tom tom the pipers son: actually the story went bullet to the head in a gravel pit
	🥁 ♥ 7:31pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @7:30 That is INSANE.
	🥁 ♥ 7:33pm newton: Im supposed to go in to SSA this month to set up SS and medicare starting November.
	🥁 ♥ 7:34pm Kat in the chat: ↳ newton @7:33 Good luck. I am postponing SS as long as I can, but I have to deal with Medicare soon.
	🥁 ♥ 7:35pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Kat in the chat @7:31 Yeah. I'm teetering on the edge of rage here. I'm also trying to be mindful of the following: We have no idea what will happen. We have each other, because that's all we ever had. This is all impermanent. This too shall pass. What goes around, comes around. There's a noose somewhere already being knotted. We just have to wait for it to encircle the proper neck. Keep loving those you love.
	🥁 ♥ 7:35pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @7:35 Love you, Wendo. Fold that laundry :)

	🥁 ♥ 7:39pm Kat in the chat: Not much boom booms yet here. I'm less than a mile from the Art Museum where they do one of Philly's official displays though. I can walk to the corner for a great view, but I might just stay home with the AC on and watch a partial view from the living room window.
	🥁 ♥ 7:41pm pot8o: ↳ newton @7:38 his soul sure was, maybe the heat of hell will make it move a little like frog legs
	🥁 ♥ 7:41pm Kat in the chat: The celebration at the Art Museum is not as planned though, because two of the entertainers pulled out because city workers here are on strike and scab workers are handling the event. Headliner was LL Cool J and he is in support of the union.
	♥ 7:41pm A.J. MACHETE: ↳ Song: "Murder by Numbers" by "Frank Zappa & Sting" I thought Zappa was just joking, like he was about to say something unkind about Sting. That intro is priceless.

	🥁 ♥ 7:42pm newton: Im not advocating anything, I do think people should know history. Verushka's father was involved in the attempt to assassin8 hitler. I wish my father had ever done anything I could be proud of

It was open when I tried to leave and go to the coffeeshop this morning, my neighbor had pulled the doorknob out accidentally (our door has been sticking) and just left it as is and gone to the grocery store with the kids that are staying with her
	8:17pm Don-O: ↳ Rich in Washington @8:14 We just started our annual AZ summer hibernation when the sun get too hot to breath outside. Hell, I might go for a walk tomorrow morning.....6 am when it's 85 degrees...

	🥁 ♥ 8:18pm Kat in the chat: ↳ newton @8:14 I skip showers on a fairly reg basis since I work from home, but by the third day I need one. Would not be happy about that one either.

	🥁 ♥ 8:25pm newton: who is salmon dave?
	🥁 ♥ 8:26pm Kat in the chat: LOL thank you Rich. Although I don't totally blame the landlord, he apparently tried to talk all the contractors he uses into coming and they refused because a) holiday and b) gridlock in the neighborhood because of the big holiday event. Still fucking pissed though because I have had a miserable stretch at work and needed this break. Maybe I'll burn an actual vacation day later in the month.

	🥁 ♥ 10:54pm ultradamno: Riley Reid tells a story of taking three tabs of double dipped acid with two friends (I think this was a problem on the SATs) that, while pretty funny, would probably be more effective at dissuading people...at least from megadosing www.youtube.com...
	🥁 ♥ 10:54pm pot8o: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:52 make me want to book a pilgrimage to the bellows falls yacht club (always wanted to book a hotel and then just wander around new england and new york going to concerts and stuff, probably to coincide w/ the fmu record fair)
	10:54pm laurapanic: ↳ Aitch @10:51 I wish they had done that the time I was in Campbelltown Hospital with my mate who called the ambulance ON HIMSELF because he was tripping so hard. So they made him drink CHARCOAL which made him freak out as it got on his hands and everything he touched. Fuck it was hilarious. Until the nurse found out he was a teacher. They wouldn't let me take him home though. But they did not offer valium. Ugh.
	🥁 ♥ 10:55pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:53 I like that your avatar has Sluggo saying, "No," and mine has Nancy saying, "I can't." It's a nice combo.
	🥁 ♥ 10:55pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ pot8o @10:54 Lemme know when you're ready to make some plans!
	🥁 ♥ 10:56pm Aitch: ↳ laurapanic @10:54 last place you want to go tripping is a hospital, lordy.

	10:57pm laurapanic: EVERYBODY SING!!! "pammie's on a bummerrrrrrr nowwwwww"

	🥁 ♥ 10:57pm pot8o: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:55 i finally have a car now, so that's a major part of it, now i just need money because that's probably going to be to the tune of at least a couple grand

	🥁 ♥ 11:05pm pot8o: ↳ Kat in the chat @11:02 i've been trying to meet up with another fmu person at record fairs but we never seem to be there at the same time (i've only met one other fmu listener in person, a clerk at an omaha record shop, she was a huge fan of kitten sparkles' show)

	11:07pm Blissland: that set was truly excruciating
	🥁 ♥ 11:10pm MHLee: ↳ Song: "The Pledge Of Allegiance" by "Red Skelton" At some point Red River Dave decided to become the headlines only guy
