Good afternoon. May I help you?
  12:04pm Carmichael:

I'm still getting the disconnected error. But I'm keeping the faith!
  12:05pm Holly in NC:

Hero xo
  12:05pm Owen in Indiana:

Welcome back, WFMU in exile! The "Listen" link on the front page still points to http://wfmu.org/wfmu.pls, which is down.
  12:05pm Caryn:

Hi Doug! Computer won't play stream, but I like to think someone is hearing it.
  12:05pm Mr El Donutsu:

Welcome back kids!
  12:06pm Andrew:

are you on the drummer url or the mothership url?
  12:06pm Richard from Venezuela:

Hello Doug. Thanks to Ken and you for this stream. Freeform heroes.
  12:06pm Nate in Detroit:

Charmichael (and others trying to listen): it's not the usual "listen" link on the homepage - click the "click here" link in the news section just below the other link...or just open this url: http://stream0.wfmu.org/remote-event.mp3
  12:06pm Owen in Indiana:

Use Ken's "listen live" link for the stream: http://stream0.wfmu.org/remote-event.mp3
  12:06pm Michael:

The "FMU improve dance - how great! Hey doug and others
  12:06pm Carmichael:

Ken's link is not connecting, but it's trying.
  12:06pm Holly in NC:

True, still no stream but Doug is a hero regardless ;-)
  12:06pm Goyim in the AM:

Ah, the sweet sound of Sarah Webster Fabio.
  12:07pm Caryn:

@Nate & Owen: that's the one I've been trying, but still, nothing.
  12:07pm Richard from Venezuela:

I listen the stream using the ex.fm extension via google chrome.
  12:07pm Andrew:

Got it. that's some reassuring Jujus all right.
  12:07pm Carmichael:

I am using it. It won't connect.
  12:07pm duke:

Still not getting either live or GTDS stream but I have faith in Doug
  12:08pm k8:

yeah, that link just plays a few seconds and stops. anyone else getting that problem? regardless, many thanks and blessings!
  12:08pm Michael:

improv ! Ken's link worked for me tyr again!
  12:08pm f0f0 (:

Try again Caryn. It works for me...sometimes.
  12:08pm Holly in NC:

@Caryn ditto
  12:09pm Richard from Venezuela:

the links for the stream is this: http://stream0.wfmu.org/remote-event.mp3
  12:09pm Christina:

Are you guys using this stream: http://stream0.wfmu.org/remote-event.mp3
  12:09pm Nate in Detroit:

@Charmichael & @Caryn: Seems to be working fine for me. I opened it in iTunes...maybe try that if you aren't already?
  12:09pm Michael:

Yup.
  12:10pm lewis:

@Nate in Detriot has the answer!
  12:10pm duke:

Yay Doug
  12:11pm holland oats:

is this thing on? srsly
  12:11pm Artie:

Like Lazarus and Jiffy Pop, WFMU is back up!!!!
  12:11pm Goyim in the AM:

Didn't work in web browser for me, works in Winamp fine.
  12:11pm pierre:

Bonjour Doug ! thanks for what you're doing.

I'm actually trying to reach the streams via internet and Itunes (128k as well as 32k; doesn't seem to work for me) ?
  12:11pm Caryn:

Nope, nothing. Then again, my computer refuses to play the alternative streams even normally, so I'm not surprised it refuses to play this improv-ed one.
  12:12pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

Music!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:12pm Doug Schulkind:

Greetings one and all! Just getting my bookkeeping together as this all came together rather swiftly! Hope you are all warm and safe.
  12:12pm Richard from Venezuela:

use this link Pierre: http://stream0.wfmu.org/remote-event.mp3
  12:12pm PMD:

Yes, I have nothing also. But at least someone can hear!
  12:13pm Artie:

Stream is up and sounding great here.
  12:13pm holland oats:

ah there you are
  12:14pm Robert H from PA:

How cool is it that WFMU is broadcasting from pgh? I live in Highland Park and am a long time fan of the show and the station!
  12:14pm holland oats:

safari is go
  12:15pm Vicki - WFMU:

Hi Doug! The listen link to the left of "Playlist and Comments" on the fmu frontpage is pointing to the usual but current power outage link. That's why some people are getting confused
  12:15pm Artie:

The resilience of the Iron City is once again on display and serving the world.
  12:17pm Caryn:

6 attempts later: nothing. Well, at least someone is hearing this.
  12:17pm Richard from Venezuela:

People with stream listening problems: If you use google chrome browser, download this extension: http://goo.gl/xdB5X . When it finished, reload your browser. You can check a play sing beside the remote link in the wfmu web page. Just click, when the black page with other play sing appear, click play again. I hope be helpful with this. Sorry for my english.
  12:17pm pierre:

Oum Kalthoum's breaking the silence !!!

(thx a lot Richard form Venezula, Doug and listeners !)
  12:17pm Carmichael:

I'm using Ken's url with quicktime: error 47. Invalid url.

dislexic problem. sing= sign
  12:19pm PMD:

I just tried http://stream0.wfmu.org/remote-event.mp3 and am in.
  12:19pm f0f0 (:

Caryn, now you know how it feels to be a non-listener commenter. pierre and I had suffered from this syndrome before. Thanks for the solidarity.
  12:19pm Frank in VT:

Hitting the link with http://stream0.wfmu.org/remote-event.mp3 just confused my firefox - it thought it should try to download instead of bringing up winamp. However, if I directly loaded it into winamp, things worked fine (File -> Play URL)
  12:21pm holland oats:

plan on breaking glen jones's record doug?
  12:21pm k8:

yeah, i just get a few seconds of play at that link. tried safari too but no go.
  12:21pm PMD:

OK, I take that back. Quicktime played about 3 seconds and then stopped.
  12:21pm Holly in NC:

Do not have itunes or winamp, use Firefox, so nothing here - but glad other folks can listen!!! Perhaps I will dl winamp
  12:21pm Richard from Venezuela:

Frank's winamp option also works. the stream link: http://stream0.wfmu.org/remote-event.mp3
  12:21pm Carmichael:

With IE9 I get a blank page with a spinning indicator.
  12:21pm Caryn:

Oh, f0f0 (: , I've been one many times before. And am always one for the alternate streams, which I'd love to listen to, but can't.
  12:22pm pierre:

to be complete :

1 - the link in my browsr, didn't work.
2 - i dragged the URL on my desktop
3 - opened it with iTunes (i guess any player'd work fine).

yeah, i'm a IT rookie, but i thought maybe, it'd help folks like me.
  12:22pm fred:

@Carmichael: with quicktime, you should use "File/open location"
With iTunes, use "Advanced/Open Stream".
Clicking from a browser probably won't work...
  12:22pm Caryn:

Have tried via net (firefox), and download, and winamp. Nothing works.
  12:22pm Ricardo Montalban:

Yay! Glad to hear things are relatively OK in Pittsburgh and to also hear some sounds coming out of WFMU
  12:23pm Brian in UK:

Hello, no connection yet but goal achieved. It's like when a band plays live the comments decrease and when the monsoon hits the pledges go up.
  12:23pm duke:

@holly paste http://stream0.wfmu.org/remote-event.mp3 into the address bar of firefox. I got the stream that way in firefox
  12:24pm Skirkie:

Thanks Frank in VT.
  12:24pm pierre:

(it's like we've all found a floating raft of music, and we're are grabbing people on it. Doug's the captain.)
  12:24pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

I'm using Google Chrome. I just copied and pasted the link into the search bar and *voila!* the sweet sounds of Give The Drummer Some.
  12:24pm Ricardo Montalban:

I couldn't get it to work in Safari, but pasted the link in iTunes/Advanced/Open Audio Stream and it works fine.
  12:25pm f0f0 (:

1. Copy artist and song title from the playlist
2. Paste it in Google (hit enter)
3. Find track
4. Play it
5. ?????
6. Profit
  12:25pm Ricardo Montalban:

Chrome is magic. Unfortunately, it won't run on any of my (older) Macs
  12:26pm pierre:

f0f0, the McGyver of streams
  12:26pm G:

Ricardo's method worked for me!
  12:26pm G:

Brasilian Portuguese and everything!
  12:27pm anne:

that totally worked Ricardo M, thank you!! was having the same troubles as a lot of ppl here with the stream. I have a 2008 mac, so those with older macs try that. And our thoughts out to you, east coast!!! miss you tons and hoping for the best.
  12:27pm Richard from Venezuela:

BadGuyZero's method works perfect.
  12:27pm G:

This is a rap about car problems
  12:27pm Carmichael:

No go, Frederico. Time to see what other players this computer has. I'm at work and the IT guys are the administrators.
  12:28pm Holly in NC:

@duke -
No luck that route, dling winamp now. Thank you though!!
  12:28pm Andrew:

Don't forget to pledge for the emergency streaming. WFMU needs it more than ever now.
  12:28pm IT Guys:

We control the horizontal. We control the vertical.
  12:29pm Caryn:

Given up now. 11 attempts and nothing. Yay for those getting the show, though!
  12:29pm green mountain man mark:

used itunes-- advanced open stream and pasted the given url and it works. Thanks. Going to see how to do it through Roku.
  12:30pm G:

Yes for me too, green MT.
  12:31pm Ricardo Montalban:

@ Caryn: What methods are you using?
  12:32pm Caryn:

@Ricardo: have tried browser, download and winamp.
  12:33pm G:

Didn't the storm center just about go straight over western or central PA overnight?
  12:34pm Ricardo Montalban:

Damn. Sorry Caryn! Hope it works for you again soon.
  12:34pm Lucy:

Oh, I can hear you! So glad, British radio gets REALLY bad at this time of night (4.30-7pm). Thank you all at WFMU for keeping going and providing us with tunes and dulcet tones.
  12:34pm Snortley:

Winamp's working for me, but had one rebuffering event in the last 30 minutes or so. This stream might not be up to supplying a lot of listeners; we'll see...
  12:34pm Brian in UK:

Hey Tough Tip in my ears. Top job Richard. Just heard Oscar D'Leon is playing London on Saturday.
  12:35pm green mountain man mark:

any news on the record fair happening still?
  12:35pm Ken:

Yes, let's try to switch over to the other thang at 3pm.
  12:35pm Ken:

Record Fair is still on Mark.
  12:36pm fred von helsing:

Anyone got the URL for the Windows Media stream? I'm stuck behind a firewall, the mp3 streams all fail in VLC.
  12:36pm Richard from Venezuela:

Glad to be helpful Brian.
  12:37pm Caryn:

Hah, have tried so hard, that I have a mysterious cut on my hand now... well, that'll keep me occupied while waiting for a listenable stream to come on.
  12:38pm Holly in NC:

Winamp success! but dear god i just remembered how much I despise winamp, ugly beast. But it works!!
  12:39pm Paul Sherratt:

"British radio gets REALLY bad at this time of night"

As opposed to 99.99% self-serving and gruesome the rest of the day time ! ( a comment from North Staffordshire)
  12:40pm f0f0 (:

Caryn, are you getting stigmatated? Which god are you pouring your libations to?

  12:42pm Brian in UK:

Hello Paul, is that VERY North Staffordshire?
  12:42pm Lucy:

@ Paul, well quite - normally I don't have to even bother with it! It's just that daytime 6 music is listenable until it gets to Steve Lamacq and then I start wanting to pull my ears out.
  12:42pm Ricardo Montalban:

I missed Winamp when I made the leap from PC to Mac but now find VLC indispensable. It will play almost anything.
  12:42pm Caryn:

@f0f0 (: :hah, no, I don't think so, as the cut is on the outside of my hand, and not near the usual stigmata spot. Unless this is stigmata from a more uncommon deity, like one of the ancient Greek ones...
  12:43pm Brian in UK:

Friday on Tuesday. Lovin' this Doug. Mid eighties?
  12:43pm Van in DC:

Oh. Wow. Hi. My winamp is silent...
  12:43pm Ocypete:

Oops, my bad - sorry Caryn.
  12:44pm Brian in UK:

@Lucy Someone has already pulled his ears out. I know that's cruel. Biggest let down is 6 Music.
  12:45pm Neg-guh-tor:

Lovin the comments! Nick Speaks is thinking about all his friends at WFMU and will have to donate more money for the drive now.

@Paul you are lucky our dog wishes he still had his.
  12:47pm f0f0 (:

VLC isn't working for me Ricardo Montalban.

I think what we need here is a little program that would play weak stream signals.
  12:47pm Lucy:

@Paul of course there is the excellent Resonance FM but they talk a bit much for when I am editing at work. Needless to say life just isn't the same without WFMU!

Lucy,
By a strange quirk of fate ( a regular event 'round these parts ) 6music has been on in the house this week via Tiler John's large portable DAB radio. 'Great To Grout With' And a fairly reasonable improvement on past tradespeoples noise blasters. John and I even had a chat about Sixto Rodriguez during a teabreak !
  12:50pm other david:

Sounding great w/ Rhythmbox on linux

  12:53pm Hugo:

Finally got it to work. I´m on a Mac now, which I am still in the process of figuring out. Running the stream on Itunes, using the open stream function or whatever it´s called in English. This box has an OS in domestic language. Apple´s supposed to be user-friendly, innit?

heya Doug and everyone!.. can't connect yet
  12:56pm Bas, NL:

Good job getting the remote up Doug!
  12:57pm Hugo:

6 Music isn´t all that bad. After all, they got Gilles Peterson from Radio 1. Sort of Radio 2 and a half, if you ask me.

Good afternoon everyone. Hope everyone's doing alright out there.
  1:16pm Lucy:

@hugo and @brian I do like 6 music, particularly after 7pm, but tend not to listen in the day as it veers off course (for me) then. But I'm not aware of anything like WFMU in the UK, where you can get taken from Latino gospel to prog rock in the same playlist :)
  1:16pm still b/p:

Got the stream and glad of it.

We'll leave it to Ken to play John Travolta singing "Sandy" tomorrow ...through the Traktor a'course, a'course.

I see that our pledge goal percentage has risen to 63%. Thanks to all who have pledged!! I want to thank you, but don't have access, just yet, to the part of the WFMU infostructure that will show me the story.

How about that word "infostructure." I just made it up. It's probably worth billions in Silicon Valley.

Editing Lucy, there is nothing in the uk like wfmu, or as far as I'm aware, in the known universe. Maybe it's because I'm ( not ) a Londoner but Resonance don't resonate with me. But I do have a very soft spot for Good Gideon Coe at 6Music. He's as open as they come over here. Doug should play some of Gideon's dad, Tony's stuff sometime if possible.

Hopefully Ken will use some of these scimollians to buy a back-up generator. FMU could then be the voice of East Orange in emergency times, and snatch up some FEMA money.

@? I agree about Mr Coe when he was on Radio London that station was OK with the likes of Charlie Gillet. Now it is a vox shop. We can only admire the depth of furrow that John Peel ploughed.
  1:33pm Hugo:

Gideon is the son of Tony Coe? Didn´t know that. I´m sure Doug will follow up the request. Gideon is one of the more listenable djs on 6 Music.

hey @? I agree totally about the lovely Gideon Coe - and I also have a soft spot for Stuart Maconie's Freak Zone and Jarvis Cocker's Sunday Service. Anyway I am filling the feed with this - sorry Doug!

Live Ayler!
  3:52pm Stanley:

Brian's just being silly, He'd love it if he went.
  3:52pm Pascal in Ann Arbor:

Thanks for the stream, Doug. I always imagine Albert Ayler leading the most righteous processions...
  3:52pm Matt from Springfield:

THANK YOU ALL!
Thanks also to Clay for keeping watch at the station, and Doug for filling the void!
  3:52pm Carmichael:

OK, back frum luncheon and linked up to the music. Keep on a rockin' me, baby ....
  3:53pm Steve in Whitby UK:

@Brian - well it's true that a lot of Northerners contribute their talent to the London economy, but some of us prefer to stay in Yorkshire... and listen to... WFMU!
  3:53pm amEdeo:

Loved that Maynard song. LGBTQC&W forever!
  3:54pm Dan B From Upstate:

yay! gtdr flash stream! if only it were permanent...

  3:59pm Stanley:

@Brian - where's it you live again?
  3:59pm Brian in UK:

Gotta make some dinner. Wonderful work Doug and all those at base. Brilliant.
Catch yous later.
  4:00pm Brian in UK:

Stanley - Watford.
  4:00pm Stanley:

See ya Brian.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:01pm Doug Schulkind:

Happy dinner, Brian in UK. Just don't put pineapple on pizza!
  4:01pm Marmalade kitty:

Might see you 't Whitby Goth fest if I can find a tick't! ;)
  4:01pm r.j.:

yes! yes! & yes!
  4:02pm Brian in UK:

@ Stanley if you ever come down to the smoke you are welcome to stay, there is roon in the chicken coop. I'm serious, not about the coop though.
  4:02pm Van in DC:

mmmmm. Pizza. Hmmmm.
  4:03pm Brian in UK:

@Doug less in more on pizzas. All in the base.
  4:04pm Carmichael:

Doug?! No pineapple on pizza?? You would not like California style pies then, my friend.
  4:05pm Stanley:

@Brian - That would be well cool. Similarly if you're up in Bonnie Scotland.
Have a good dinner and see you around.
  4:06pm Hugo:

New York has its charms, but so has Old York. Any town with a street named The Shambles has something going for it.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:09pm Doug Schulkind:

@Brian
I did make an artichoke-topped pizza, thanks to your suggestion. It was delish.
  4:09pm Caryn:

Evidently, California and Scandinavia have similar ideas about pizza. Pineapple is almost ubiquitous. And man, do I wish it weren't. No pineapple on pizza, people!
  4:11pm Matt from Springfield:

Ham is GREAT on pizza! With onions, or artichokes, or jalapeños. But not pineapple--the textures just don't sync for me.
  4:13pm Skirkie:

I went down to the studio to see if anyone there wanted to charge their devices with my laptop and no one was there. Scott and Ken showed up and make sure all was secure and they locked it up.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:13pm Doug Schulkind:

Caryn, let's not go to California together.

@Matt
I snuck a wee bit of prosciutto on my artichoke pizzas. I certainly WILL be doing that again.
  4:14pm Carmichael:

Matter of fact, tonight I'm having either Canadian bacon and pineapple or Jamaican jerk chicken pizza. The chicken satay pizza is also delicious.
  4:15pm Caryn:

Doug, it's a deal. Although we might be fine if we avoid places like the California Pizza Kitchen. Non-pizza foods only.
  4:17pm amEdeo:

@Skirkie: Are the surrounding streets still flooded?
  4:19pm Skirkie:

It looks like things have receded. Just no power, traffic lights, etc.
  4:19pm Craig in Edinburgh,Scotland:

Great work Pittsburgh! And the toppest of tunes in these anxious hours (William Onyeabor's "Good Name" - what a beast of a record) Hoping the havoc isn't too terrible back at HQ. Thinking of you and listening with relish.
  4:21pm Van in DC:

Okay, finally the apt. maintenance guys are finished and gone from my apt. Time to go see what the area looks like...thanks Doug!
  4:21pm Carmichael:

As long as you're not listening with pineapple, Craig. Although I don't mind myself, ....
  4:22pm Skirkie:

The basement and such remained dry.
  4:22pm amEdeo:

@Skirkie: That's good to hear. Thanks man.
  4:23pm Matt from Springfield:

Good news on the basement!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:25pm Doug Schulkind:

And more good news: The basement at WFMU is dry dry dry! The water stopped about 50 feet away from the front door. (At least this is the rumor I am comfortable spreading.)
  4:25pm Caryn:

Currently listening with cabbage.
  4:26pm Carmichael:

So they just need to wait for the boys from ConEd shove the long cord back into the wall thingie?
  4:28pm Matt from Springfield:

@Caryn: Or, is cabbage listening, with you?? Cabbage for thought...

Satan does a swingin' Rhumba!!
  4:29pm G:

From CNN newsfeed: Half of Hoboken, New Jersey [next to Jersey City], is flooded, Mayor Dawn Zimmer told CNN. "The Hudson River came in and filled half of Hoboken like a bathtub," she said. Pump stations are flooded, and much of the city will not be able to get power back until that flooding is gone. There's "major concern" about people walking in the streets, because live wires could be in there, Zimmer said.
  4:29pm Caryn:

@Matt: well, not for long, because it will soon be consumed
  4:30pm Matt from Springfield:

Hey guys, great article from The Onion!

Oh shit. This is ACTUALLY TRUE.

All Hail Dry Basements!!!
  4:31pm Carmichael:

Hell of a job AGAIN, Brownie.
  4:33pm Dave in PA:

Hey Everybody - Hope everyone in/around the station is ok. Is the WFMU Record Fair still on for next weekend? I'm a few hours West so just curious how bad things are in WFMU-land...
  4:35pm amEdeo:

Record Fair IS happening Dave in PA!
  4:35pm Matt from Springfield:

@Caryn: Good cabbage can't sit around for too long! :)

@Carm: The more astonishing part is that he's "now a talk radio host in Colorado". Someone (I assume there's at least one) WANTS to listen to him? I would imagine if he had a 3 hour shift, he would refuse to go to mic and insist that the show will air itself, until it's too late and the 3 hours have passed.
  4:36pm Caryn:

Talk-show joke writers are in trouble with Brownie. When the set-up to the joke is more ridiculous than anything you can come up with, you're screwed.
  4:36pm Matt from Springfield:

@Dave PA: We are hoping infrastructure/transportation will be back in service to help get people to the Fair, but it's good to know that amEdeo says the Fair will be happening.

@Matt: well, Ken has been very adamant about the record fair going on. So adamant, in fact, that I suspect he'd personally pedicab everyone over there if necessary.
  4:41pm glenn:

no pineapple on pizza??!! that's crazy talk.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:43pm Doug Schulkind:

Call me crazy, glenn. I've been called worse.

Pineapple on pizza? That's humdrum, boring, ho-hum sane talk. Rather be crazy.

pineapple and cream cheese on a toasted bagel is a wondrous thing also.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:48pm Doug Schulkind:

Oh stoppit, glenn. You're worse than Sandy.
  4:48pm Caryn:

Hmm, should I go get a bagel tomorrow? Only one cafe chain in the whole country where you can get fresh bagels. It's kind of sad. (The menu: 4 types of bagel, about 7 different topping options)
  4:49pm Marmalade kitty:

gammon steak and pineapple!
  4:49pm Matt from Springfield:

Pineapple and cream cheese? Sounds like an obscure Southern comfort food of the past, like: upside down pineapple lemon cream cheese cake.
  4:50pm Marmalade kitty:

pineapple on its own!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:51pm Doug Schulkind:

Now you're talking, MK!
  4:51pm Matt from Springfield:

@MK: Do you eat the pineapple with the steak, or just cook it with pineapple on for flavor?

(I see in the next comment, "pineapple on its own". Bite of steak, bite of pineapple then?)
  4:52pm Caryn:

I'm with MK on the "on its own" idea. Either that, or with mint-flavoured sugar and plain yoghurt.
  4:52pm Marmalade kitty:

ice pineapple and rum shake with lime!!!!!!!!!!! :)
  4:53pm dcp@:

phew! Been carving pumpkins. Luckily I have a drill attachment to clean them out. Essential these days.
  4:53pm Caryn:

When I was homeless, the standard daily meal was a can of pineapple slices.
  4:54pm Caryn:

Hey, have pineapple soda in the fridge! Maybe I should go have some of that.
  4:55pm Marmalade kitty:

that shit is DANGERous!!!
  5:00pm amEdeo:

There's pineapple soda?! WHat?! That sounds exciting, though potentially too sweet for me.
  5:02pm Marmalade kitty:

I recommend freshly squeeezed pineapple (slushy), golden Rum, twist of lime Mmmm. so nice bu leathal if od'd
tip: use cling film wrap around top of glass and shake it baby!
  5:03pm Skirkie:

Pineapple soda sounds like a thing created exclusively for vodka.
  5:03pm Caryn:

@amEdeo: the same manufacturers also make my favourite - X-mas apple soda. Apple, vanilla and ginger flavour. I always try to stock up during the brief time it is available each year.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:03pm Doug Schulkind:

Jesus Fucking Christ! Bush's FEMA stooge Michael Brown REALLY DID criticize Pres. Obama for acting too quickly in response to Hurricane Sandy. I thought it was a joke.
  5:05pm texas scott:

holy shite,Doug!
How long you been 'casting?
  5:05pm Marmalade kitty:

will obama play golf tomorrow?
  5:06pm Matt from Springfield:

@MK: Delish! Makes it feel like summer! :)
@Doug: Like Caryn says, the headline itself is the punchline--after that it just becomes sad that it's true!
  5:07pm Caryn:

@MK: well, Obama is supposedly coming to NJ tomorrow, so I'm not sure there are golfing opportunities. It's one big water hazard.
  5:07pm A fish:

Can't wait for The Best Show tonight!
  5:07pm amEdeo:

@MK: Mmm Mmm. That does sound good!

@Caryn: What company? I wanna check it out.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:08pm Doug Schulkind:

@Texas Scott
I've been on since noon. Are you on my mailing list? I sent out an alert.
  5:08pm A fish:

@Doug Schulkind: The only Republican on the media that I saw behaving well was Christie.
  5:09pm A fish:

Meaning that he applauded Obama for how he handled Sandy.
  5:09pm Matt from Springfield:

@fish: I don't know if Tom will connect on--but much like the playlists here, we can still go on the FOT chat at 9! :)
  5:09pm Carmichael:

You know we'll hear all about Brownie on Jon Stewart (and probably Colbert) tonight. Should be the best comedy since Ross Perot.
  5:10pm Caryn:

@amEdeo: I don't think it's available over there. Finnish company Hartwall. Here's a pic: http://www.fishfood.fi/i/kuvat/hartwall_joululimppari_big.jpg
  5:11pm Skirkie:

Tom tweeted that he has no power. There's no traveling tonight either. Mandatory car restrictions in Jersey City after 6pm. Not that he could do anything in Jersey City anyway.
  5:15pm glenn:

oh republicans. there's nothing in the world so bad that they can't make it worse.

At 6pm, I will sign off the stream and you will have a few moments of silence while Dan Bodah connects to it. He will be streamcasting live, remotely from deepest, driest Brooklyn. When I sign off, hang on until you hear the music again. It WILL come back.
  5:17pm Carmichael:

How about by tariffs?
  5:18pm Matt from Springfield:

Lovely Vetiver here!
  5:20pm amEdeo:

Oh no. I ran out of ginger candy. Time to cook some gluten free pasta in heavily-chlorinated water.
  5:21pm Caryn:

Oh, amEdeo, if it wasn't a carbonated beverage, I'd send you some myself. Alas, I fear regular mailing would not have great results.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:26pm Doug Schulkind:

When I sign off the stream at 6pm, the signal will go silent. Wait about 30 seconds and then RECONNECT TO THE STREAM to hear it again. You must reconnect to hear it.
  5:26pm amEdeo:

Thanks Caryn! Yeah, not to mention we might anger some very-soaked-with-soda postal workers to boot. Don't want to get detained for acts of Soda Terrorism (my record can't stand any more soda crimes!).
  5:27pm Matt from Springfield:

Supermellow™ set, Matthew Young's also great!

Thanks for the programming advice.
  5:29pm Caryn:

@amEdeo: I wonder if there's a Scandinavian or Finnish food place in the NJ/NY area that might have some or could order some in? After the Sandy situation is over, that is.
  5:30pm Carmichael:

@amEdeo: Manhattan Beer distributors in Brooklyn carry the Jaffa line. They could tell you what stores they service.
  5:31pm Hugo:

I see the heading in Itunes has the following web address:

http://www.rogueamoeba.com/nicecast/

This is software to use with Macs to broadcast on the net, apparently.
  5:33pm Ricardo Montalban:

That is indeed what it is. You can also use it to stream music within local networks.
  5:34pm Ricardo Montalban:

Thanks for keeping the discs spinning, Doug! You're like the DJ at the end of the world, spinning away while the undead horde roam the ravaged countryside.
  5:35pm Ike:

Hey hey! No power in my part of Newark for the last 26 hours, no cell service (!?!), no WFMU at 91.1 on my battery radio, forced to listen to WNYC. At a friend's in Bloomfield for an hour or two, hope you've got better conditions in your areas, folks.
  5:35pm amEdeo:

@Caryn&Carmichael: Ooo boy! Exciting development indeed. I shall check it out once things have calmed down.
  5:35pm Caryn:

Man, Manhattan Beer carry loads of Finnish brands! Nice.

  5:38pm Carmichael:

I will soon hoist a beer in your honor, Doug, since it's $2.50 pint day at the local micro-boozer. Ah heck, I'd even pay full price in your honor!
  5:38pm Brian in UK:

@ Caryn Pineapple solo, the only way. Keep life simple, nature does.
By the by, Carmichael, loved the use of 'luncheon' earlier. Class.
  5:38pm Caryn:

BTW, how are things over there in Pittsburgh, Doug?
  5:40pm Caryn:

@Brian: yep, best way to have it. Have some fresh pineapple in the kitchen, which will be consumed solo.
  5:40pm Matt from Springfield:

@Doug: Afropop Zombie Dance!
  5:40pm Marmalade kitty:

Is Dan Bodah in da house?
  5:51pm Caryn:

Hey, Doug, "hero" and "superhero" are two different things. And even with superheroes, you have non-caped ones. Like Spiderman, Captain America, Iron Man, many of the X-Men, Green Lantern, the Fantastic 4, Wonder Woman,... Actually, it seems like a minority of superheroes wear capes nowadays.

Stay tuned for Dan Bodah, live remotely from Brooklyn here on WFMU IN EXILE. Remember, when I disconnect and the stream goes silent, YOU MUST CLICK TO RECONNECT THE STREAM. Wait about 30 seconds for the next connection to be made, then go crazy. Keep you eye on WFMU's homepage for the link to Dan Bodah's playlist.

You guys are the very best. What a fantastic way to spend six hours. Radio hugs to all.

  5:57pm Ken From Hyde Park:

The Daily Show and Colbert are reruns tonight and probably the rest of the week.

  8:36am A listener:

Wish I could hear this show again, it was great. Thanks!
  4:52pm Bob:

As an addendum to my very brief comment above, I wanted to point out that the complete movie "The Burning Train" is available on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNYdj7d394o Because there are no subtitles, if you don't speak Hindi, you'll probably want to focus on the excellent opening title sequence at 0:0:46 to 0:4:12.
