	9:11pm SeanG: Sweet!
	♥ 9:12pm spodiodi: \m/
	♥ 9:17pm Ken From Hyde Park: We're in the middle of Todd-o-phonic week. He's due up again Saturday morning. Some Vitamin Funk will get us through the night.
	♥ 9:24pm Uncle Michael: Lulu's got a nice Man Who Sold The World too.
	♥ 9:25pm pacific standard simon: Whoop! Todd! Who let the dogs out?!
	9:29pm Timmy Toenail: Glad to discover back on the sound box so soon Todd-o-phonic. Better share that punch if it gets you drunk
	♥ 9:29pm spodiodi: Todd. Todd-o-phonic let those dogs out!
	♥ 9:30pm pacific standard simon: On the other hand, Peter Noone had a very suspect version of "Oh! You Pretty Things"...
	♥ 9:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: nobunny asked me to chime in. ...no they didn't...
	♥ 9:32pm pacific standard simon: Wanna buy a bunny?
	9:33pm Sidewalk Sailor: Rabbit, your always welcome hare.
	9:34pm johnk77: at least 2 chinnichap songs in set 1! toddophonic in effect!
	♥ 9:34pm Uncle Michael: I'm whipped. I'm gonna lay back and let Todd yell me to sleep.
	♥ 9:35pm pacific standard simon: Wait! What about your pie?
	9:36pm LovecraftDude888: I just had to do a fast food shop the whirlwind 15 min. one because otherwise..nothing worse than waking on Turkey Day preparing to head out and no food, and trapped in your nabe due to some silly run going on! No guten!
	9:37pm LovecraftDude888: Ian Hunter! yessss! And the temp. is dropping fast since this afternoon...wow.
	♥ 9:37pm pacific standard simon: Frozen burritos are your friend.
	9:38pm LovecraftDude888: God, anything. I have to have my Twinings irish breaky tea and oatmeal or I get ornery!
	♥ 9:39pm pacific standard simon: Remember when Ian Hunter as a solo artist sounded like a good idea?
	9:40pm SeanG: this song right here got me outta bed every day during a shitty time in Chicago
	9:41pm LovecraftDude888: I have some memory of All The Good ones are Taken the video coming on MTV and going "good tune, ok tune, but this is not going to put Ian over Duran Duran...sadly". Which speaks more about the sad state of pop music as usual than anything.
	9:41pm LovecraftDude888: but that's not to say I don't like Duran Duran....I did and do.
	♥ 9:43pm Uncle Michael: The pies look lovely. zzzzz
	9:44pm Parq: Mr. Todd! What a thankful thing to find you here. Maybe we need to call it Todd-O-Giving.
	♥ 9:44pm pacific standard simon: Whew. That's been on my mind all day. Sort of.
	9:45pm LovecraftDude888: man I got email today from Martha and the Muffins....that was weird.
	9:46pm Rubber Food Stamps: Sweet cream dreams Uncle, unless your more of a meringue guy.
	♥ 9:47pm spodiodi: hahaha
	♥ 9:50pm pacific standard simon: The man himself. Eric wrote one of the best rock'n'roll autobiographies ever.
	♥ 9:52pm pacific standard simon: They coulda gone with The Space Heaters!
	9:52pm LovecraftDude888: That sounds like a good book for a change: OOP though already. I was supposed to see Eric and Amy Rigby a few months back but I had pers. issues and didn't get there, alas.
	♥ 9:54pm pacific standard simon: They're a fun show, Dude, and they give good autograph.
	9:54pm LovecraftDude888: Bleecker St. is ok, some high prices on some stuff, but cute cats!
	9:54pm Oral Fingers: My stream is being interrupted (no Flomax jokes please). Anyone else having streaming problems?
	♥ 9:56pm spodiodi: hahaha
	♥ 9:57pm pacific standard simon: How about a tribute to Joan Jett getting kicked off the South Dakota float?
	9:57pm johnk77: stream,dj,music good here
	9:58pm Toasty Tang: Thanks
	10:00pm LovecraftDude888: Bleecker St. wanted like $70 for the J. and M. Chain box set, in window, I thought it was a tad high and said so on Yelp. I like Generation Records better but haven't been there in a while now. That's not cheap either but a better overall selection and the tshirt and vinyl overflow downstairs is rad!
	10:02pm Wagonsmoke: Classic Tracy Morgan humor last night warning that if the Underdog float got too close to the Snoopy float he might try to sniff is but during the parade.
	10:04pm LovecraftDude888: that's nothing, I had a stroppy orange tabby pet store cat try to attack me today! He wasn't keen on me petting him. That kind of day.
	10:04pm SeanG: best song ever
	♥ 10:06pm pacific standard simon: The ghost of Teddy Roosevelt's gonna ride the Bullwinkle float like Slim Pickens on a H-Bomb!
	♥ 10:08pm pacific standard simon: Yow!
	♥ 10:10pm pacific standard simon: Oh my heart!
	10:10pm Whooda: Apparently Joan Jett hitched a ride on a different float but which one? "I've decided to switch from South Dakota to another float because people's political agendas were getting in the way of what should be a purely entertainment driven event," Jett said in a statement Saturday."
	10:12pm LovecraftDude888: I know I just read that too. Doesn't say which State float. If only Wendy O. Williams was still around to be on ANY float with her leather bra and chainsaw! now THAT would be a Turkey Day!
	10:15pm Hellofromskidrow: They don't want to frighten the kiddies with Wendy O. Williams
	10:16pm LovecraftDude888: haha that would have been something else. Alas it would be a hologram nowadays.
	♥ 10:16pm pacific standard simon: I don't know where Joan's going, but she'd be a natural for the Hawaii float, if there is one.
	10:16pm fleep: I'm floating already.
	♥ 10:17pm pacific standard simon: Nitrous oxide, baby!
	10:17pm will: If I had my way, Todd-o-Phonic Todd would occupy a space in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as the Bestest "sub" in radio history! I mean it!
	♥ 10:23pm pacific standard simon: If I had my way, WFMU would change its call letters to WTOD.
	10:25pm LovecraftDude888: I love Elvis the C's version of this.
	10:26pm Holly in NC: @lovecraftdude - I do too!
	♥ 10:27pm pacific standard simon: It's a shame Nervous Norvus never got his hands on this number.
	10:27pm bottom bird feeder: Good theme for those "family moments" at Thanksgiving time.
	10:27pm Eddy in Australia: Great show so far, but it's a silent 'w' in Chiswick, T-O-P Todd.
	♥ 10:29pm pacific standard simon: Going out to Sis-o-phonic you-know-who?
	10:29pm LovecraftDude888: man I met Elliott Murphy 3 yrs. ago at a show on LI and the show rocked, he did "Anastasia" which was amazing.
	♥ 10:29pm pacific standard simon: No, guess not.
	10:30pm LovecraftDude888: Elliott was an unbelievably nice guy, meant to say.
	10:30pm Eddy in Australia: @Holly: Have you heard the Beasts of Bourbon's version of "Psycho"? Pretty good, too.
	10:32pm LovecraftDude888: I'm upside down my head is spinning round cause i gotta sell the house in Levittown oh no Alan Sherman! i used to always play Lenny Bruce every Thanksgiving....not recently though.
	♥ 10:33pm pacific standard simon: This song is dedicated to me.
	10:34pm Holly in NC: @Eddy - I have it, and it is good! I really like the BoB in general. Axeman's Jazz, Black Milk, classics. And 'Just Right' the song is fun :-)
	10:37pm Eddy in Australia: @Holly: I knew it! You always seem pretty cluey about Australian bands. The Beasts are still going strong, by the way. Saw them a few months ago.
	10:39pm LovecraftDude888: i wanna hear some Radio Birdman! wey hup!
	♥ 10:40pm pacific standard simon: Mama get the hammer there's a fly on baby's head.
	10:42pm Holly in NC: @Eddy - I came of age, musically, in golden era of Lime Spiders, Celibate Rifles, Died Pretty, New Christs - anything on Citadel, really - etc etc. etc. And the new wave of Aussie goodness past couple of years makes me happy.
	10:44pm LovecraftDude888: Man I'm looking forward to seeing Nebraska....I met Bruce Dern a few years back and he was awesome!
	10:46pm party sub: the Garagefather!
	10:46pm mon: Nebraska-Lincoln if you are ever on I-80 its worth a look.
	10:50pm mon: there's even music scene there in Lincoln...
	10:53pm LovecraftDude888: man I scoped it on Yelp....makes me wanna bawl that Lincoln Nebraska has six or seven indie record shops and Port Washington LI has zero. Oh boy!
	♥ 10:54pm pacific standard simon: I actually do have those liner notes in front of me. Elliot goes on and on about how the record will seem in 100 years, what people in 100 years will make of this. Everyone who is alive when the record was made will be dead, including him. Heh, well, it's ~40 years later, and Lou and Sterling are dead, anyway.
	♥ 10:55pm pacific standard simon: He also says that rock'n'roll is one of the few honest things left in this world. Is that true? I still don't know.
	10:58pm Holly in NC: Old 97s' "Wreck Your life" is a nigh perfect record.
	10:58pm Peteski: @pss Thanks and thanks todd for the playlist (and elliot murphy)
	♥ 10:59pm pacific standard simon: My big "Iggy" moment was touching this singer's chest at a show in SF in '78.
	11:00pm LovecraftDude888: Anton Fier put his hand on my shoulder a few years back. That was weird! i wasn't afraid...
	11:01pm LovecraftDude888: and I said "Listen MY FRIEND DDDD LISTEN MY FRIENDHHHH"
	♥ 11:02pm pacific standard simon: WTOD FM!!!
	♥ 11:06pm pacific standard simon: whittle yo whut?!
	♥ 11:07pm pacific standard simon: Jon Langford is ALWAYS entertaining.
	♥ 11:11pm pacific standard simon: I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship, New Dirtbombs Album.
	11:15pm dance hall discount: Captain Groovy's idea of rebellion was dropping two sweetarts at one time for the extra sugar rush.
	11:21pm LovecraftDude888: I always liked those Spree candies turning your tongue various colors!
	♥ 11:22pm pacific standard simon: Well, sort of. There was this one candy that started out like a Sweetart, but as it dissolved in your saliva, it turned into gum. It was compulsive; you just kept shoving them into your mouth.
	11:24pm LovecraftDude888: I used to also love those Lik em Aid stick things with the sugar stick and powdered sugar packets...oh my god. It's amazing I still have teeth!
	11:26pm Hellameye: I vaguely remember lick em, Spree and the melting gum. The worst was 'cum gum' that was a puffy square of gum with a liquid center that had a strange flavor all its own.
	11:27pm Holly in NC: @PSS - Razzles! Yes! @LovecraftDude -dear lord, I loved Lik em Aids also. Mainly the sticks, how weird is that?
	11:29pm mama fried: Razzles! Yes, that's the melting gum, those were habit forming.
	♥ 11:29pm pacific standard simon: Yep, that's it Holly. Nowadays, my idea of sweets is a 12-year-old tawny port with a biscuit.
	11:29pm LovecraftDude888: Fun Dip is the proper name for that dreadful stuff! Yeah I recall that gum, too....trying to recall the name. OH yeah, Freshen Up Gum. Oh no!! I bought that a few times. Worse even was the GATOR GUM gatorade gum! Oh putrid city. Really horrendous.
	11:31pm enzymes: Gator Aid gum, that sounds worse than awful!
	11:32pm fleep: This is why gum control is an important issue.
	11:32pm LovecraftDude888: It was really horrendous, sweet and sour to the point of burning out your mouth. urghh. But it did pretty well for a time.
	11:33pm Laptops in Lockup: That is a sticky subject fleep. That depends which side of the table your from.
	11:33pm LovecraftDude888: this guy seems to want his GatorGum back! But he likes Butterfingers so he has no taste.... blogs.houstonpress.com...
	11:34pm Holly in NC: I beg to differ. GatorGum rocked. Perfect for long distance track events when you needed to moisten your mouth & couldn't drink anything. I LOVED GatorGum, and in fact used to write Gatoraide begging for its return pretty frequently.
	11:36pm Holly in NC: I also loved Aspergum, which I doubt is made anymore.
	11:36pm LovecraftDude888: ha! The Gator Brigade! I recall when it first hit the market in the 70s and was a big deal. And Xylitol was considered some evil cancer causing substance....
	11:37pm LovecraftDude888: wow never used Aspergum but that is weird!
	11:38pm Hellameye: I was frightened away just by the name "Aspergum".
	♥ 11:38pm pacific standard simon: I frequently abused Aspergum due to mouth sore attacks.
	♥ 11:41pm pacific standard simon: Brought on by Razzle abuse, no doubt.
	11:41pm Holly in NC: Lemon Razzles & Orange Aspergum, a match made in heaven
	11:42pm LovecraftDude888: I do recall being into Razzles they were great. I can't go near any of that stuff anymore. Pixie Sticks were always big. I had a period of being addicted to Sugar Babies.
	11:44pm Hair Handler: Lemon Razzles, Orange Aspergum and cough syrup. Sounds like Sangria wine for the aspiring young alcoholic.
	♥ 11:45pm pacific standard simon: Lester Bangs has been dead for over 30 years -- take warning, kids!
	11:48pm Holly in NC: @HairHandler, in my house we had no cough syrup, but my tee-totalling parents kept a small bottle of schnapps on hand solely for use as a cough suppressant. So... yeah (hic) Did anyone else have to take Fletchers Castoria?
	11:49pm Tom Peterson: Great show tonight as always Todd.
	11:50pm Holly in NC: Most excellent show, thank you Todd
	♥ 11:54pm pacific standard simon: I can touch a rainbow, I can hear the grass grow, I can see for miles... ...must've been something in the water, in those days.
	11:57pm nanantatee: Magic mix yeah!!!!!
	11:57pm 18 to 20: @Holly. No Fletchers but my mom and I got into a violent wrestling match as she tried to ram exlax though my clinched teeth.
	♥ 11:59pm pacific standard simon: HOW CAN I WAIT UNTIL SATURDAY???!!!
	11:59pm Holly in NC: @18to20 - Better than ramming something else somewhere else...
	♥ 12:00am pacific standard simon: Walk right up to Todd, give him a great big kiss! Mwah!

	10:00pm LovecraftDude888: Bleecker St. wanted like $70 for the J. and M. Chain box set, in window, I thought it was a tad high and said so on Yelp. I like Generation Records better but haven't been there in a while now. That's not cheap either but a better overall selection and the tshirt and vinyl overflow downstairs is rad!
	10:02pm Wagonsmoke: Classic Tracy Morgan humor last night warning that if the Underdog float got too close to the Snoopy float he might try to sniff is but during the parade.
	10:04pm LovecraftDude888: that's nothing, I had a stroppy orange tabby pet store cat try to attack me today! He wasn't keen on me petting him. That kind of day.
	10:04pm SeanG: best song ever
	♥ 10:06pm pacific standard simon: The ghost of Teddy Roosevelt's gonna ride the Bullwinkle float like Slim Pickens on a H-Bomb!
	♥ 10:08pm pacific standard simon: Yow!
	♥ 10:10pm pacific standard simon: Oh my heart!
	10:10pm Whooda: Apparently Joan Jett hitched a ride on a different float but which one? "I've decided to switch from South Dakota to another float because people's political agendas were getting in the way of what should be a purely entertainment driven event," Jett said in a statement Saturday."
	10:12pm LovecraftDude888: I know I just read that too. Doesn't say which State float. If only Wendy O. Williams was still around to be on ANY float with her leather bra and chainsaw! now THAT would be a Turkey Day!
	10:15pm Hellofromskidrow: They don't want to frighten the kiddies with Wendy O. Williams
	10:16pm LovecraftDude888: haha that would have been something else. Alas it would be a hologram nowadays.
	♥ 10:16pm pacific standard simon: I don't know where Joan's going, but she'd be a natural for the Hawaii float, if there is one.
	10:16pm fleep: I'm floating already.
	♥ 10:17pm pacific standard simon: Nitrous oxide, baby!
	10:17pm will: If I had my way, Todd-o-Phonic Todd would occupy a space in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as the Bestest "sub" in radio history! I mean it!
	♥ 10:23pm pacific standard simon: If I had my way, WFMU would change its call letters to WTOD.
	10:25pm LovecraftDude888: I love Elvis the C's version of this.
	10:26pm Holly in NC: @lovecraftdude - I do too!
	♥ 10:27pm pacific standard simon: It's a shame Nervous Norvus never got his hands on this number.
	10:27pm bottom bird feeder: Good theme for those "family moments" at Thanksgiving time.
	10:27pm Eddy in Australia: Great show so far, but it's a silent 'w' in Chiswick, T-O-P Todd.
	♥ 10:29pm pacific standard simon: Going out to Sis-o-phonic you-know-who?
	10:29pm LovecraftDude888: man I met Elliott Murphy 3 yrs. ago at a show on LI and the show rocked, he did "Anastasia" which was amazing.
	♥ 10:29pm pacific standard simon: No, guess not.
	10:30pm LovecraftDude888: Elliott was an unbelievably nice guy, meant to say.
	10:30pm Eddy in Australia: @Holly: Have you heard the Beasts of Bourbon's version of "Psycho"? Pretty good, too.
	10:32pm LovecraftDude888: I'm upside down my head is spinning round cause i gotta sell the house in Levittown oh no Alan Sherman! i used to always play Lenny Bruce every Thanksgiving....not recently though.
	♥ 10:33pm pacific standard simon: This song is dedicated to me.
	10:34pm Holly in NC: @Eddy - I have it, and it is good! I really like the BoB in general. Axeman's Jazz, Black Milk, classics. And 'Just Right' the song is fun :-)
	10:37pm Eddy in Australia: @Holly: I knew it! You always seem pretty cluey about Australian bands. The Beasts are still going strong, by the way. Saw them a few months ago.
	10:39pm LovecraftDude888: i wanna hear some Radio Birdman! wey hup!
	♥ 10:40pm pacific standard simon: Mama get the hammer there's a fly on baby's head.
	10:42pm Holly in NC: @Eddy - I came of age, musically, in golden era of Lime Spiders, Celibate Rifles, Died Pretty, New Christs - anything on Citadel, really - etc etc. etc. And the new wave of Aussie goodness past couple of years makes me happy.
	10:44pm LovecraftDude888: Man I'm looking forward to seeing Nebraska....I met Bruce Dern a few years back and he was awesome!
	10:46pm party sub: the Garagefather!
	10:46pm mon: Nebraska-Lincoln if you are ever on I-80 its worth a look.
	10:50pm mon: there's even music scene there in Lincoln...
	10:53pm LovecraftDude888: man I scoped it on Yelp....makes me wanna bawl that Lincoln Nebraska has six or seven indie record shops and Port Washington LI has zero. Oh boy!
	♥ 10:54pm pacific standard simon: I actually do have those liner notes in front of me. Elliot goes on and on about how the record will seem in 100 years, what people in 100 years will make of this. Everyone who is alive when the record was made will be dead, including him. Heh, well, it's ~40 years later, and Lou and Sterling are dead, anyway.
	♥ 10:55pm pacific standard simon: He also says that rock'n'roll is one of the few honest things left in this world. Is that true? I still don't know.
	10:58pm Holly in NC: Old 97s' "Wreck Your life" is a nigh perfect record.
	10:58pm Peteski: @pss Thanks and thanks todd for the playlist (and elliot murphy)
	♥ 10:59pm pacific standard simon: My big "Iggy" moment was touching this singer's chest at a show in SF in '78.
	11:00pm LovecraftDude888: Anton Fier put his hand on my shoulder a few years back. That was weird! i wasn't afraid...
	11:01pm LovecraftDude888: and I said "Listen MY FRIEND DDDD LISTEN MY FRIENDHHHH"
	♥ 11:02pm pacific standard simon: WTOD FM!!!
	♥ 11:06pm pacific standard simon: whittle yo whut?!
	♥ 11:07pm pacific standard simon: Jon Langford is ALWAYS entertaining.
	♥ 11:11pm pacific standard simon: I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship, New Dirtbombs Album.
	11:15pm dance hall discount: Captain Groovy's idea of rebellion was dropping two sweetarts at one time for the extra sugar rush.
	11:21pm LovecraftDude888: I always liked those Spree candies turning your tongue various colors!
	♥ 11:22pm pacific standard simon: Well, sort of. There was this one candy that started out like a Sweetart, but as it dissolved in your saliva, it turned into gum. It was compulsive; you just kept shoving them into your mouth.
	11:24pm LovecraftDude888: I used to also love those Lik em Aid stick things with the sugar stick and powdered sugar packets...oh my god. It's amazing I still have teeth!
	11:26pm Hellameye: I vaguely remember lick em, Spree and the melting gum. The worst was 'cum gum' that was a puffy square of gum with a liquid center that had a strange flavor all its own.
	11:27pm Holly in NC: @PSS - Razzles! Yes! @LovecraftDude -dear lord, I loved Lik em Aids also. Mainly the sticks, how weird is that?
	11:29pm mama fried: Razzles! Yes, that's the melting gum, those were habit forming.
	♥ 11:29pm pacific standard simon: Yep, that's it Holly. Nowadays, my idea of sweets is a 12-year-old tawny port with a biscuit.
	11:29pm LovecraftDude888: Fun Dip is the proper name for that dreadful stuff! Yeah I recall that gum, too....trying to recall the name. OH yeah, Freshen Up Gum. Oh no!! I bought that a few times. Worse even was the GATOR GUM gatorade gum! Oh putrid city. Really horrendous.
	11:31pm enzymes: Gator Aid gum, that sounds worse than awful!
	11:32pm fleep: This is why gum control is an important issue.
	11:32pm LovecraftDude888: It was really horrendous, sweet and sour to the point of burning out your mouth. urghh. But it did pretty well for a time.
	11:33pm Laptops in Lockup: That is a sticky subject fleep. That depends which side of the table your from.
	11:33pm LovecraftDude888: this guy seems to want his GatorGum back! But he likes Butterfingers so he has no taste.... blogs.houstonpress.com...
	11:34pm Holly in NC: I beg to differ. GatorGum rocked. Perfect for long distance track events when you needed to moisten your mouth & couldn't drink anything. I LOVED GatorGum, and in fact used to write Gatoraide begging for its return pretty frequently.
	11:36pm Holly in NC: I also loved Aspergum, which I doubt is made anymore.
	11:36pm LovecraftDude888: ha! The Gator Brigade! I recall when it first hit the market in the 70s and was a big deal. And Xylitol was considered some evil cancer causing substance....
	11:37pm LovecraftDude888: wow never used Aspergum but that is weird!
	11:38pm Hellameye: I was frightened away just by the name "Aspergum".
	♥ 11:38pm pacific standard simon: I frequently abused Aspergum due to mouth sore attacks.
	♥ 11:41pm pacific standard simon: Brought on by Razzle abuse, no doubt.
	11:41pm Holly in NC: Lemon Razzles & Orange Aspergum, a match made in heaven
	11:42pm LovecraftDude888: I do recall being into Razzles they were great. I can't go near any of that stuff anymore. Pixie Sticks were always big. I had a period of being addicted to Sugar Babies.
	11:44pm Hair Handler: Lemon Razzles, Orange Aspergum and cough syrup. Sounds like Sangria wine for the aspiring young alcoholic.
	♥ 11:45pm pacific standard simon: Lester Bangs has been dead for over 30 years -- take warning, kids!
	11:48pm Holly in NC: @HairHandler, in my house we had no cough syrup, but my tee-totalling parents kept a small bottle of schnapps on hand solely for use as a cough suppressant. So... yeah (hic) Did anyone else have to take Fletchers Castoria?
	11:49pm Tom Peterson: Great show tonight as always Todd.
	11:50pm Holly in NC: Most excellent show, thank you Todd
	♥ 11:54pm pacific standard simon: I can touch a rainbow, I can hear the grass grow, I can see for miles... ...must've been something in the water, in those days.
	11:57pm nanantatee: Magic mix yeah!!!!!
	11:57pm 18 to 20: @Holly. No Fletchers but my mom and I got into a violent wrestling match as she tried to ram exlax though my clinched teeth.
	♥ 11:59pm pacific standard simon: HOW CAN I WAIT UNTIL SATURDAY???!!!
	11:59pm Holly in NC: @18to20 - Better than ramming something else somewhere else...
	♥ 12:00am pacific standard simon: Walk right up to Todd, give him a great big kiss! Mwah!
