Listener comments!
	12:06am muhrvis: Greetings from Eugene, OR. What was that wild "r-a-d-i-o" intro track?
	12:08am Joe McG: Hey, Muhrvis! That's the Yip Yip Aliens discovering the radio, as I do each week.
	12:13am coalhard: you can see them on "my vidster"--too
	12:16am muhrvis: Ah, cool! Thx!
	12:17am Joe McG: They can be seen on YouTube, as coalhard rightly points out.
	12:38am coalhard: if you want to see something really good go to youtube type in gentleman's duel (wow) --but save to favorites --listen to show currently playing!!!!
	12:41am coalhard: hit first listing on google search
	12:53am muhrvis: you're stoned!
	12:54am coalhard: i don't like not commenting on the music ---which i will do right after i comment on cnn heroes---!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	1:03am coalhard: did you know there are about 80 (mostly college stations)--streaming on line--i sample all of em--but WFMU IS THE BEST BY FAR!!!!!
	1:04am muhrvis: Where do you find the best list of streamers?
	1:08am Matt from Springfield: Hi Joe! Hey everyone! Lot of old electro stuff this block, or just the last two items?
	1:09am coalhard: http://zoomout.in/college-radio-map/
	1:10am Joe McG: Hey, Matt! Fairly recently. Doing the robot now.
	1:12am Matt from Springfield: @coalhard: There are a lot of streaming online stations--that college radio one is a good guide, but NPR stations also have high-quality streams, usually. WUOG and WXPN for example.
	1:12am coalhard: hey muhrvis--i have all these saved in winamp--just have to click on one instant music
	1:14am Matt from Springfield: http://jrabold.net/radio/ Allegro! search This is a program-based NPR streaming search tool. I used to listen to these often, but I agree with you coalhard--with WFMU--and the ARCHIVES!!--I don't bother much with other stations anymore!
	1:15am coalhard: i grew up on npr-led me here
	1:18am Matt from Springfield: I don't discount them entirely, for I also support the local Classical NPR station, but 'FMU is a friggin' godsend! I can search for the gems like before, or just pour the handfuls of WFMU gems down my pants--hells yeah!
	1:20am Matt from Springfield: @Joe: Do you have a lot of Bonzo or Neil/Vivian releases? I'm sure your demographic would like hearing them!
	1:21am Joe McG: Yeah, a few! You're right, they should get more airtime on my program. Note to self!
	1:25am Matt from Springfield: Thanks Joe! (flicks lighter) CANYONS OF YOUR MIND!!! Wooo! (Seeing "Neil/Vivian" side by side just reminded me that the characters from the Young Ones also had a few novelty records out.)
	1:25am coalhard: now we have sirrus xm radio in car--love my 2010 ford
	1:26am Joe McG: No prob, Matt!
	1:28am Matt from Springfield: @Joe: "Keynsham" is one of my favs, have it on vinyl! @coalhard: For driving around, XM is great--playlists like I imagine the original commercial FM once had. Matter of fact I would be stressed out if I had to rely on lugging CDs around every time I drove.
	1:30am Matt from Springfield: At Last the 1948 Show! featuring Cleese, Chapman, Marty Feldman and Tim Brooke Taylor. And a pretty chick!
	1:32am coalhard: i fart in my own general direction
	1:33am Joe McG: Marty Feldman!!
	1:34am Matt from Springfield: My pleasure Joe! I have both sets on DVD. "Do Not Adjust Your Set" was more broadly-based entertaining, while the 1948 Show was probably closer to what Python became.
	1:35am Matt from Springfield: @Joe: Yes, Ol' Google Eyes pre-Mel Brooks! @coalhard: Yeah well, I bet your mother's not a hamster, nor does your father smell of elderberries.
	1:41am Joe McG: I just rewatched "Young Frankenstein" around Halloween and Marty carried away the movie for me this time, along with Gene Wilder's I'm-going-to-combust-any-minute performance.
	1:44am Matt from Springfield: Great Halloween viewing--I ought to remember to bring Young Frahnk-en-steen out around that time.
	1:46am coalhard: ok--EVERYBODY--BACK TO THE MUSIC---I WAS ALMOST SUCKED IN TO ALTERNATE UNIVERSE MYSELF
	1:48am Joe McG: This one goes out to anyone in Union City tonight.
	1:50am Matt from Springfield: Karen sounded interesting, I wonder if she was part of anything else. Really diggin' the Blondie as well! @coalhard: You have an admirable sense of focus! On Irwin's playlists it's just a free-for-all of side-conversations, meta-jokes and stabs at conceptual humor using pseudonyms.
	1:52am Joe McG: Now's the time to get in those did-you-shoot-your-woman-down jokes in, fellas.
	1:52am coalhard: I NAILED MY PARROT ON HIS STICK LONG AGO
	1:55am Matt from Springfield: Great classic country lyric!
	2:10am Matt from Springfield: And a great spot on animal cruelty--really more media need to mention that, more often than they currently do!
	2:11am coalhard: i love strays--wfmu was a stray once--i took her in --now -purrs constantly
	2:14am Matt from Springfield: "Adopt a radio station--be there for them, and they'll always be there for you!"
	2:16am Joe McG: We're very loyal!
	2:22am Matt from Springfield: I got an early day tomorrow so I will need to check out after this set. Thanks for your loyalty Joe, and this groovin' mix! I guess I'll just have to leave you and coalhard to your own devices! (Anyone else out there?)
	2:24am coalhard: bye--love ya--take care
	2:24am Joe McG: As always, thx for hangin' out, Matt!
	2:26am Matt from Springfield: Hmm, McDonald and Giles was a project of two of the original King Crimson members. This is a lovely album, will need to obtain, see if there's good linear notes to go with. Take care both of you, always glad to hang out with ya!
	2:29am coalhard: matt --your a genius
	2:36am Derek B: This is exactly how this time should sound, nicely done.
	2:39am Joe McG: Thanks, Derek, glad you could join me this morning...
	2:39am coalhard: i accidently sent my brain into outter space--i hit enter instead of shift--will send pictures of pluto
	2:42am Derek B: I wore my 'Radio Bear' tee today and felt really cool while buying holiday crap from China; so I got that going for me...
	2:45am Joe McG: Wearing the Radio Bear is good in all kinds of situations, including buying crap. I was wearing mine the other day while doing the laundry. Maybe I didn't look cool, but I felt as if I did, which is half the battle.
	1:41pm Bob from BUG: I have a cassette tape with you "Sesame Street Alien intro"!! thanks for the flash backs!!!
