	12:02pm Doug Schulkind: Double the hinky and triple the dinky!
	12:03pm listener james from westwood: good friday, UM, and all hopping the next freight to music city!
	12:03pm Gary: Is there beer here too?
	12:03pm Artie: Transition successful.
	12:03pm ndbob: Heya Alex and Doug!
	12:03pm Andrew Waterloo: I love this opening.
	🛒 12:04pm Brian in UK: You bet, Gary.
	12:04pm ndbob: James, Gary Artie
	12:04pm duke: Did someone say beer?
	12:04pm pacific standard simon: How much we gotta pledge to hear "A Dying Cubs Fan's Last Request"?
	12:05pm Uncle Michael: Hello everyone!
	12:05pm earrie: A local vanilla porter is my new fave.
	12:06pm Doug Schulkind: Neya ndbob! Now I get to relax and shout to the heavens for THE HINKIEST, THE DINKIEST...UNCLE MICHAEL!
	12:06pm glenn: hey, new yorkers, i have a question - how many outdoor skating rinks in the five boroughs and where can i find that info?
	12:09pm pacific standard simon: Cool! And no FCC!
	12:09pm Gary: Yay Dad
	12:10pm pacific standard simon: Your dad donated YOU, Michael. Thanks, Michael's dad!
	12:10pm ndbob: That's me - and thank you UM!
	12:11pm northguineahills: so, ndbob, you used to be North Dakota bob, and now you're Indy bob? brilliant, ndbob still works!
	🛒 12:11pm Brian in UK: How's this for pretentious BS on the back of a bottle "On a crisp winter's day a cloudless sky fills the Dorset coastline with sunshine. Above a white-tailed eagle can be seen soaring above the sea. The sillouette of its majestic wings a sign that Spring is near".
	12:12pm ndbob: NGH - Yep - I figured that I might as well keep my chat name - and the white buffalo icon
	12:13pm Doug Schulkind: You are just flipping out.
	12:15pm listener james from westwood: brian: that is laying it on pretty thick. what is that even a bottle of? beer? wine? carpet freshener?
	12:16pm Doug Schulkind: Question: Do I have to wear my dickie while I listen to your marathon premium?
	12:16pm Alex In Illinois: @Brian: A bottle of what? The eagles we have in the US love chilly rainy days, and sort of wintry weather.
	12:17pm listener jeff: red dickey, white shirt Doug!
	12:17pm Uncle Michael: Hinky Dinky dickies...next year.
	12:17pm pacific standard simon: It's fun to kid you about the Cubbies, UM, but I have to admit they kicked my Giants' asses last year. When your show is over today, I'm switching to a spring training game vs. the Brewers.
	12:17pm listener scott: Curious why my online pledge confirmation says I donated to both Bryce and HD. I only intended to donate to HD, no offense to Bryce.
	12:19pm Uncle Michael: The widget from where you clicked probably defaulted to brice from the home page and you didn't notice you could remove that. We both are grateful!
	12:21pm ndbob: I received my PayPal confirmation for my pledge, but for some reason didn't get the FMU one
	12:21pm pacific standard simon: That's a long walk to Topeka, too!
	🛒 12:22pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hey Hinky-Dinkers. Lets make the next 3 hours verrrry profitable for our beloved FMU-GTDS. @ glenn. I looked at nyc.gov for the city run rinks. Counted 8 that I think are outdoor. Then you add the one at Rock Center cant think of any other outdoor rinks. You might want to check Yelp but many of those would be indoors
	12:24pm Doug Schulkind: Beautifully put, UM. ♥
	12:24pm glenn: i counted 17, but what do i know?
	🛒 12:27pm KevinfromBayRidge: I didn't include lake or ponds. Are you sure there all outdoors?
	12:28pm listener james from westwood: agree w/ doug. many djs work years to make such an eloquent statement, UM. you've got nothing to be scared of.
	12:28pm earrie: Hinky Dinky Time - how to be productive at work with good music on Friday early-afternoons.
	12:29pm glenn: that's probably where i went wrong. i think some be be indoors.
	12:30pm glenn: may be.
	12:31pm listener james from westwood: earrie: oh hells yes. some fmu shows i can't listen to during editing or proofing or both. hinky dinky complements my work wonderfully.
	12:31pm Doug Schulkind: I heard someone once refer to Hinky Dinky Time as a "guilty pleasures" show. I think of it as a "pleasures" show.
	12:32pm northguineahills: Man, it's been years since I've heard that Free Design classic.
	12:33pm northguineahills: I possess no "guilty" pleasures. I embrace all of mine.
	12:35pm listener james from westwood: life is too short for guilt to hinder pleasures as elemental as musical choices. "embrace" is the perfect term for it.
	12:36pm Stanley: I love Hinky Dinky Time. Michael has me squirming in my chair (re: the previous track), as well as rolling on the carpet luxuriously.
	12:37pm listener jeff: I often wake up at night with the Hinky Dinky theme song ear worming its way through my head
	12:38pm earrie: @ljfw - it's my Friday prompt to get stuff done and wrap up. That said, there are a couple shows I'll gaze a lot at birds and the breeze. So not to discount the value of time spent in unconscious processing.
	🛒 12:39pm KevinfromBayRidge: @glenn . There are definitely some smaller ones that aren't city run like one at the Mus of Nat History. Guess I'm not focusing on ice after spending 5 weeks trying to avoid it in SE FLA.
	12:41pm Gary: Lonnie also new to me via Doug
	12:41pm Doug Schulkind: Welcome home, Uncle!
	12:41pm Stanley: Doug was the drug for me!
	12:42pm Alex In Illinois: WXRT is still the best English-Language air-broadcasted commercial radio station in Chicago. But Chicago has a number of Colleges/Universities with stations and the Chicago Independent Radio Project.
	12:43pm Doug Schulkind: Just say YES, Stanley.
	🛒 12:44pm KevinfromBayRidge: FYI...the FMU stream & Android App is the only thing that kept me half-sane (outside of the temps) during the FLA sojourn.
	12:44pm Artie: Belock and Rex roped me in. Then I noticed all the other worlds in the WFMU galaxy. UM, given that Endless Boogie is workin' for you, you may enjoy Natural Child naturalchild.bandcamp.com
	12:46pm Alex In Illinois: My gateway show was Wasted Vinyl that I tuned in back in 1987, when I started living in Dobbs Ferry, New York, and communted into The City. Somewhere, I have an old WFMU listener's guide with the 7 Wonders of New Jersey, like the Mysterious Hyphens of Ho-Ho-Kus, or the one strange factory that actually emits pleasant aromas.
	12:46pm northguineahills: I remember reading about WFMU djs in some zine around '97. In '98, my job (while graduating university) was the only place w/ the bandwidth that could actually sometimes stream the primitive tinny WFMU stream at night. Moved here in 2000 for grad school, and the rest is history.
	12:47pm pacific standard simon: Belinda & Hova (Greasy Kid's Stuff) sucked me into WFMU like a monster vacuum cleaner. Sure wish they were on the Drummer stream these days.
	12:47pm northguineahills: (that was in FL)
	12:49pm Stanley: I couldn't believe it when I discovered WFMU. Nine years later and I still can't believe how lucky I am.
	12:49pm Uncle Michael: Sorry I'm not as active in my own comments as I'd like to be...I'm spinning plates. Ed Sullivan...do you hear me? I'M SPINNING PLATES.
	12:50pm Gary: Am embarrassed to admit just how much of a Klaatu fan I was.
	12:50pm northguineahills: In grad school, I'd take breaks from study by perusing the playlists (couldn't stream).
	12:50pm LovecraftDude888: Actually it can be found out on L.I. in Riverhead..hehe well it's not called Atlantis anymore. spinning plates? far out! I was shaving my awful face, then having lunch and doing coffee
	12:51pm Alex In Illinois: After I had lived in the Chicago for over a decade, and streaming radio stations started appearing, it was like 2005 or something, and I thought: "What was that station out of East Orange New Jersey? Hmm WFMU, I wonder if they are steaming". Then I did a search and found it, tuned it in, and Give The Drummer Some was playing and I thought: "Wow! And they are the best streaming station in the World!"
	12:52pm ndbob: Charlie's show got me started on WFMU back in the dial-up days
	12:52pm tater: Getting to listen today
	12:53pm LovecraftDude888: Glenn hell the NYC tourist .gov sites should have all that info...esp. re: the Central park rink if there is one still, and the midtown one at Rock Center is always going I think
	🛒 12:53pm Brian in UK: A funny thing happens some times when the stream dips out. It rebuffers and comes back as the main station programme ie if it were Doug's show it would change to Keili's. Any one else have the same effect.
	12:53pm LovecraftDude888: a few ice rinks out on LI too, but most pay at least to some degree, or part of the LI parks depts. etc.
	12:53pm Stanley: I found WFMU via a link on the fansite Beefheart.com. It described it as the 'best station in the world'.
	12:54pm glenn: glen jones' website has a link to weird new jersey, which i find endlessly fascinating.
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: Hey Tate...glad you could be here.
	12:54pm LovecraftDude888: UM my apologies, I hadn't realized you were in fact a DJ on here! or blanked on it..oh brother
	12:54pm Doug Schulkind: Actually, there is a streaming outfit in the Aussie outback that's better. But then again, it involves standing in an actual stream. And there are poisonous snakes and stuff. We are at least much safer.
	12:54pm earrie: In dialup days there was WNUR out of Northwestern U in Evanston, WWOZ out of New Orleans, and then, what the is this? WFMU in Jersey City.
	12:55pm Stanley: @Brian - you sure you're not developing strange powers?
	12:56pm glenn: stanley, i discovered wfmu through yo la tengo's site. my gateway show was either meghan or michael shelley, i can't remember which.
	🛒 12:56pm Brian in UK: Stanley, best station in the known or unknown universe. Jeez I need a beer now.
	12:57pm glenn: bill bryson helpfully points out that australia is home to the ten most poisonous species of animal in the world.
	12:57pm Stanley: Brian - I'm supposed to be going out right now to find some beer but I'm stuck on this show.
	12:58pm LovecraftDude888: I could never ice skate worth a shit...no balance, weak dainty ankles. I could roller skate ok though sort of
	12:58pm listener james from westwood: i had heard fmu once or twice during time home from college, but it was on sept. 14, 1992, the first day of my first real post-college job, when i was immersed in it. my new boss said, "i listen to this weird college radio station. if it ever bugs you, i can change the channel." it was a touching-the-monolith moment. i was pledging by the next marathon.
	12:58pm Stanley: I'm spittin' feathers!
	🛒 12:58pm KevinfromBayRidge: Henry St Alehouse for me tonight!
	🛒 12:59pm Brian in UK: Stanley, think Bill Mac has concerns that way already regarding my brain. Got some nice Polish rye vodka that has my name on it.
	1:00pm LovecraftDude888: McGasko hooked me up, sent my goodies fast as hell! thanks guys
	1:00pm LovecraftDude888: oh snap I used to go to Henry St. Alehouse sometimes years ago when I lived in the area--that place is good!
	1:01pm pacific standard simon: I'm gettin' it, buddy-boy, whether you want to give it up or not.
	1:01pm Stanley: Brian - only because he cares about you.
	1:02pm Stanley: Anyway, look at the time. I've gotta split, drink some beer and I'll be back.
	🛒 1:02pm Brian in UK: Thanks Stanley. Better get to the kitchen. I am in and out sharp tomorrow morning.
	1:03pm Andrew Waterloo: Doug, you have such beautiful eyes
	🛒 1:04pm KevinfromBayRidge: Yup, but a little pricier than I like. However the bartender, Pete is decent with buybacks.
	1:04pm Doug Schulkind: Most people like my nose better.
	1:04pm pacific standard simon: Despite the fact that my little island is about as far from New Jersey as it is possible to get in the contiguous U.S., it is nevertheless true that New Jersey and Washington share their state bird, the American Goldfinch (also Iowa, I think).
	1:07pm Andrew Waterloo: You gotta build up to stuff like that
	1:07pm LovecraftDude888: Henry St. was cool, burgers and stuff always good. I don't even drink no mo' so haven't been there in years now. I drove by it when I was in DUMBO the past few times. Also used to go to that diner off Cadman Plaza West....U know it!
	1:09pm Uncle Michael: Goodbye Stanley!
	1:09pm listener james from westwood: must duck out briefly but shall return!
	1:10pm LovecraftDude888: James from West...I've never had a boss that had cool taste in music. usually total spivs. wankers. tossers etc. I tried playing some Morton Feldman one day at my last job on LI and some housewife was like "WTF is thisss weird noise?" haha! I realized it was time to quit this job
	1:11pm Uncle Michael: See ya later james.
	1:13pm pacific standard simon: Your hot mic is letting us down -- no farts or belches (I'm wearing headphones).
	1:13pm efd: You're my morning show today, UM - I took the day off work for an early marathon recovery day after a busy week. Great show so far - it's no easy task being your own co-host.
	1:13pm Caryn: Aah, Hinky Dinky Time is a calming, balancing oasis during a slightly unsettling day. Ian Dury ain't hurting either.
	1:13pm Andrew Waterloo: I had a workmate named Ken that enjoyed Ken's show on Wednesday morning.
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, efd. I'm grateful for all your support and encouragement.
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Thank you all for the kind words.
	🛒 1:15pm KevinfromBayRidge: hey we're all your co-hosts in Studio T today!
	1:15pm Uncle Michael: damn right!
	1:16pm Caryn: I avoid listening to WFMU at work. Had to do it this week though (can't be missing the Marathon), and it was an endless race to keep the boss from finding out what I was doing. TGIF so I can look forward to a week of unhindered listening enjoyment.
	🛒 1:16pm Brian in UK: Ah Chaz Jankel.
	1:18pm northguineahills: When I am working (not currently), I can't work w/o music, therefore I listen to WFMU. It keeps me focused on the task at hand and keeps my ADD at bay.
	1:18pm Doug Schulkind: As Vermont says, "Eat more Cale!"
	1:23pm Caryn: How have I been unaware of this cover for 30 years?
	1:23pm Mike East: holy hell this is so much better than the original (and I don't HATE the original)
	🛒 1:23pm KevinfromBayRidge: Gotta go run (really!) along beautiful & fucking frigid NY Harbor now. This is the non-sane half of me talkin'. Thank Goodness that I'll be listening( but not commenting-YaY for youse guys) on de Android App.
	1:23pm Mike East: is there a number to call to pledge to this show or is it just on the interwebs?
	1:24pm northguineahills: I was going to echo Caryn's comment.
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: Web only, Mike
	1:25pm listener scott: WOOT! BOMBINO CD! Thanks Uncle Michael!
	1:26pm Uncle Michael: Thanks kevin!
	1:26pm Andrew Waterloo: When I saw Bombino play he had just gone through an emergency wisdom tooth extraction. Still fantastic.
	1:27pm pacific standard simon: As I recall, Roddy Frame loathed the original "Jump", did this as a mockery, and was disgusted when people thought it was a homage.
	🛒 1:27pm Brian in UK: Is there a Rutles tribute band?
	1:27pm glenn: that little george intro solo right there is way harder to play than you might think.
	1:28pm listener james from westwood: And then I realized I have a wifi-equipped device!
	1:29pm Gaylord Fields: @Brian in UK: There are a few. My favorite is Ouch! www.facebook.com...
	1:30pm Doug Schulkind: We got some cows mooing up in here!
	1:30pm Gary: Gaylord beat me to it. My own fave is Rutallica
	1:31pm LovecraftDude888: I'm planning on getting myself a tablet even a smaller one next month....getting tired of running about outside and not being able to hook in with the phones. need one!
	1:33pm LovecraftDude888: although a smartphone would give me more regular wifi web access than tablet...I think
	1:33pm Gaylord Fields: Back atcha, Uncle Michael!
	1:34pm LovecraftDude888: I swear it's the weirdest thing, when I drive in Nassau LI no WFMU it drifts, then right over Queens line, I get it strong!
	1:34pm LovecraftDude888: p.s. have fun Kevin! it's wicked cold out there
	1:35pm Doug Schulkind: MMmwertsd, 3nr2q3rpsd-]p9yu!!!
	1:37pm Gaylord Fields: No, you are blameless, Uncle Michael, and I apologize for inadvertently causing you consternation. I was just making a general remark about supermarket usage fail. I would never stoop to criticizing your grammar. That would be bush league.
	🛒 1:38pm Brian in UK: @Gaylord & Gary. Thanks. Gear.
	1:40pm Doug Schulkind: @Gaylord I implored that people pledge during your show Sunday evening when you used "comprised" correctly.
	1:42pm Uncle Michael: Thank you for the psychic reprieve, Gaylord.
	1:44pm pacific standard simon: Also, Gaylord, thank you for no UM blood all over everything.
	1:45pm pacific standard simon: Going to see the dominatrix -- strapped for cash.
	1:45pm Doug Schulkind: New headline just added to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette website: Cellist Yo-Yo Ma to receive Fred Rogers Legacy Award
	1:50pm LovecraftDude888: strapped-on for cash? oh my
	1:51pm Mike East: I've won 3 prizes so far.
	1:51pm listener james from westwood: Re: proper usage, just spotted in the CNN crawl--"US signals shift in tact toward Middle East peace talks."
	1:52pm Gaylord Fields: @Doug Schulkind: I talk it as I walk it.
	1:53pm glenn: gaylord gives good comment.
	1:53pm pacific standard simon: Coolest song ever.
	1:53pm glenn: and he's familiar with the ouvre of stompin' tom.
	1:55pm Gaylord Fields: @glenn: I'm a proud Canadophile.
	1:56pm Uncle Michael: something the canadaphobes will want to avoid next
	1:57pm Doug Schulkind: I love how the sweetest, soulful-est musical moment in the movie Car Wash is accompanied by scenes of butter packets falling from the ceiling on a guy's head.
	1:58pm Uncle Michael: Franklin Ajaye had the best Jewfro ever...(sorry Doug)
	1:58pm efd: Pags!
	1:58pm glenn: i like pagliaro. it's great pop.
	1:59pm Gaylord Fields: CanCon! Keep raiding the Beaver Bin, UM!
	2:00pm glenn: the beaver bin? i think my stripper ex fiance worked there.
	2:00pm listener jeff: woo-hoo! Thanks Uncle Michale!!!!
	2:01pm glenn: there's a toronto d.j. who calls herself sigourney beaver.
	2:01pm Doug Schulkind: @UM I didn't have a Jewfro. I had an Isro.
	2:03pm Doug Schulkind: Charlie will be back!
	2:03pm LovecraftDude888: Car Wash rules..haven't seen it in ages..."I'm looking for a tall, black blonde...I mean....a blond tall black girl.. I mean..a black blodne black blonde"
	2:03pm pacific standard simon: I do miss Charlie.
	2:03pm glenn: isro? i don't get it.
	2:04pm pacific standard simon: I'm not covering your nuts, Uncle Michael.
	2:04pm Doug Schulkind: Israel/afro, dude.
	2:04pm Gaylord Fields: @glenn: Touché. Apropos of nothing, it's likely that Queen Street has changed quite a bit since I was last there, in the 1990s. Nothing but hookers, donut shops and banks back then — and yes, I see the correlation.
	2:06pm glenn: oh. i'm a big duh-mmy.
	2:08pm glenn: yep. it's chain stores, hipsters and overly priced martinis now.
	2:11pm pacific standard simon: Face it folks, FMU is MUSIC CENTRAL in a way that no once-a-year festival ever could be.
	2:12pm Andrew Waterloo: The place I shop at is still cramped, dirty, sneaks you a glass of beer, and sells every new and decently used record in a plastic sleeve.
	2:14pm Doug Schulkind: I full Mouse of Today level pledge will shoot Uncle Michael's total up past the 75% mark. Make it happen!
	2:18pm glenn: dead like me fans - this is reggie all growed up. www.screened.com...
	2:26pm efd: This would certainly motivate me to pledge, if I hadn't pledged already.
	2:26pm listener james from westwood: nice to walk back into the jernt and hear abba playing!
	2:27pm Uncle Michael: I hear that, Evan!
	2:27pm Uncle Michael: James!
	2:28pm Andrew Waterloo: I'd be motivated too efd.
	2:29pm glenn: ernest. he's just about the best.
	2:31pm listener james from westwood: was briefly out of radar range but now i'm back in the work pit.
	2:36pm ndbob: When I first started collecting I went to a flea market at a school - talked to someone there - they said they had a bx of records at home they would give to me - and "The Trip" was in it
	2:37pm listener james from westwood: i would've had NO idea who kim fowley was had I not become an wfmu listener. for those inclined to dig into the archives, pseu braun had a long, career-spanning interview with him sometime in the oughts.
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: How could anyone part with that? I ask you.
	🛒 2:39pm Brian in UK: @ndbob Lovely Sorts of Death? or Lucy in the........ Name of Flaming Lips publishing.
	2:40pm glenn: indian summer could easily be april wine.
	2:42pm Doug Schulkind: Uncle Michael is now just TWO Mouse pledges away from reaching the gooooaaaaal!
	2:44pm Doug Schulkind: Westwood, NEW JERSEY! (I made the same mistake once, Uncle Michael.)
	🛒 2:45pm KevinfromBayRidge: back from the big freeze. Brother John was part of my gateway into good FM in 1969. He was a DJ on WABC-FM which soon became WPLJ. Amazingly, it was a great freeform station for afew years. After that I had to wait for FMU
	2:45pm still b/p: Is there another DJ on the globe that said "fuck" a moment after playing the Monkees today?
	2:45pm Doug Schulkind: Still have Lonnie Holley and Pere Ubu left.
	2:48pm Dominick: Marvelous!
	2:49pm northguineahills: Awesome!
	2:49pm pacific standard simon: This will not deter me from choosing your premium.
	2:49pm ndbob: wow UM!
	2:50pm Gaylord Fields: My dream of being a grateful Ernest Tubb has finally come true thanks to Uncle Michael!
	2:50pm listener james from westwood: omfg this is great.
	2:51pm northguineahills: James Cameron Cameron? where are the aliens?
	2:51pm listener scott: Instant classic.
	2:51pm pacific standard simon: It can't be easy to write this way.
	2:51pm listener james from westwood: SOAK ANDY
	2:52pm Santos L Halper: This is awesome UM! A great 1st marathon (it's mine too)!
	2:52pm Gaylord Fields: This is straight-up hilarious and brilliant! Dickie Goodman would be proud.
	2:53pm Uncle Michael: Thank you Gaylord!
	2:53pm Doug Schulkind: Lonnie Holley bows down to you, Uncle Michael.
	2:53pm efd: Wow, that was amazing. Gaylord is 100% correct.
	2:54pm Doug Schulkind: PLEDGE! PLEDGE! PLEDGE! PLEDGE! PLEDGE! for that massive production work of genius. Instant classic indeed!
	2:55pm Uncle Michael: I'm glad you guys enjoyed that.
	2:55pm Doug Schulkind: A pledge of $160 will get Hinky Dinky Time up to the $1,000 mark. A huge accomplishment for his FIRST MARATHON SHOW EVER!! C'mon and pitch in everyperson!
	2:56pm pacific standard simon: I expect that to appear on Matt Fiveash's premium show next year.
	2:56pm Uncle Michael: I'm just glad neither me nor my premium did a complete face-plant.
	2:58pm Doug Schulkind: The rest of our premiums ARE. NOT. WORTHY!
	2:59pm efd: I'm stating right now that if Matt doesn't play that next year I will! And even if he does play it I still might!
	2:59pm ndbob: excellent pledge show UM!
	3:02pm Uncle Michael: Aww...shucks.
	3:03pm efd: Best song about Rasputin ever.
	3:04pm northguineahills: Never understood why I dig this Boney M song. It's a mystery.
	3:04pm efd: It's Fariantastic!
	3:04pm pacific standard simon: Will I open up my wallet again next week? Will I... What a silly question!
	3:04pm Uncle Michael: I wonder if it's on Youtube with Eisenstein footage.
	3:04pm Gaylord Fields: This song can easily be brought up to date just by removing the "Ras-"!
	3:06pm pacific standard simon: Ras Putin clot, Jah.
	3:06pm northguineahills: Nice, Gaylord.....
	3:06pm efd: "Rah rah rah! Putin!" Good one, Gaylord.
	3:07pm listener james from westwood: spasibo, mikhail!
	3:08pm Doug Schulkind: @UM The archive gets cut off in ONE minute!
	3:09pm Doug Schulkind: AND THANKS TO LAST-MINUTE PLEDGER JACK in WESTFIELD, NEW JERSEY!

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from February 28, 2014

View Uncle Michael's profile

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

	12:02pm Uncle Michael: This thing on?
	12:02pm Alex In Illinois: . . . Hi everyone!
	12:02pm Doug Schulkind: Double the hinky and triple the dinky!
	12:03pm listener james from westwood: good friday, UM, and all hopping the next freight to music city!
	12:03pm Gary: Is there beer here too?
	12:03pm Artie: Transition successful.
	12:03pm ndbob: Heya Alex and Doug!
	12:03pm Andrew Waterloo: I love this opening.
	🛒 12:04pm Brian in UK: You bet, Gary.
	12:04pm ndbob: James, Gary Artie
	12:04pm duke: Did someone say beer?
	12:04pm pacific standard simon: How much we gotta pledge to hear "A Dying Cubs Fan's Last Request"?
	12:05pm Uncle Michael: Hello everyone!
	12:05pm earrie: A local vanilla porter is my new fave.
	12:06pm Doug Schulkind: Neya ndbob! Now I get to relax and shout to the heavens for THE HINKIEST, THE DINKIEST...UNCLE MICHAEL!
	12:06pm glenn: hey, new yorkers, i have a question - how many outdoor skating rinks in the five boroughs and where can i find that info?
	12:09pm pacific standard simon: Cool! And no FCC!
	12:09pm Gary: Yay Dad
	12:10pm pacific standard simon: Your dad donated YOU, Michael. Thanks, Michael's dad!
	12:10pm ndbob: That's me - and thank you UM!
	12:11pm northguineahills: so, ndbob, you used to be North Dakota bob, and now you're Indy bob? brilliant, ndbob still works!
	🛒 12:11pm Brian in UK: How's this for pretentious BS on the back of a bottle "On a crisp winter's day a cloudless sky fills the Dorset coastline with sunshine. Above a white-tailed eagle can be seen soaring above the sea. The sillouette of its majestic wings a sign that Spring is near".
	12:12pm ndbob: NGH - Yep - I figured that I might as well keep my chat name - and the white buffalo icon
	12:13pm Doug Schulkind: You are just flipping out.
	12:15pm listener james from westwood: brian: that is laying it on pretty thick. what is that even a bottle of? beer? wine? carpet freshener?
	12:16pm Doug Schulkind: Question: Do I have to wear my dickie while I listen to your marathon premium?
	12:16pm Alex In Illinois: @Brian: A bottle of what? The eagles we have in the US love chilly rainy days, and sort of wintry weather.
	12:17pm listener jeff: red dickey, white shirt Doug!
	12:17pm Uncle Michael: Hinky Dinky dickies...next year.
	12:17pm pacific standard simon: It's fun to kid you about the Cubbies, UM, but I have to admit they kicked my Giants' asses last year. When your show is over today, I'm switching to a spring training game vs. the Brewers.
	12:17pm listener scott: Curious why my online pledge confirmation says I donated to both Bryce and HD. I only intended to donate to HD, no offense to Bryce.
	12:19pm Uncle Michael: The widget from where you clicked probably defaulted to brice from the home page and you didn't notice you could remove that. We both are grateful!
	12:21pm ndbob: I received my PayPal confirmation for my pledge, but for some reason didn't get the FMU one
	12:21pm pacific standard simon: That's a long walk to Topeka, too!
	🛒 12:22pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hey Hinky-Dinkers. Lets make the next 3 hours verrrry profitable for our beloved FMU-GTDS. @ glenn. I looked at nyc.gov for the city run rinks. Counted 8 that I think are outdoor. Then you add the one at Rock Center cant think of any other outdoor rinks. You might want to check Yelp but many of those would be indoors
	12:24pm Doug Schulkind: Beautifully put, UM. ♥
	12:24pm glenn: i counted 17, but what do i know?
	🛒 12:27pm KevinfromBayRidge: I didn't include lake or ponds. Are you sure there all outdoors?
	12:28pm listener james from westwood: agree w/ doug. many djs work years to make such an eloquent statement, UM. you've got nothing to be scared of.
	12:28pm earrie: Hinky Dinky Time - how to be productive at work with good music on Friday early-afternoons.
	12:29pm glenn: that's probably where i went wrong. i think some be be indoors.
	12:30pm glenn: may be.
	12:31pm listener james from westwood: earrie: oh hells yes. some fmu shows i can't listen to during editing or proofing or both. hinky dinky complements my work wonderfully.
	12:31pm Doug Schulkind: I heard someone once refer to Hinky Dinky Time as a "guilty pleasures" show. I think of it as a "pleasures" show.
	12:32pm northguineahills: Man, it's been years since I've heard that Free Design classic.
	12:33pm northguineahills: I possess no "guilty" pleasures. I embrace all of mine.
	12:35pm listener james from westwood: life is too short for guilt to hinder pleasures as elemental as musical choices. "embrace" is the perfect term for it.
	12:36pm Stanley: I love Hinky Dinky Time. Michael has me squirming in my chair (re: the previous track), as well as rolling on the carpet luxuriously.
	12:37pm listener jeff: I often wake up at night with the Hinky Dinky theme song ear worming its way through my head
	12:38pm earrie: @ljfw - it's my Friday prompt to get stuff done and wrap up. That said, there are a couple shows I'll gaze a lot at birds and the breeze. So not to discount the value of time spent in unconscious processing.
	🛒 12:39pm KevinfromBayRidge: @glenn . There are definitely some smaller ones that aren't city run like one at the Mus of Nat History. Guess I'm not focusing on ice after spending 5 weeks trying to avoid it in SE FLA.
	12:41pm Gary: Lonnie also new to me via Doug
	12:41pm Doug Schulkind: Welcome home, Uncle!
	12:41pm Stanley: Doug was the drug for me!
	12:42pm Alex In Illinois: WXRT is still the best English-Language air-broadcasted commercial radio station in Chicago. But Chicago has a number of Colleges/Universities with stations and the Chicago Independent Radio Project.
	12:43pm Doug Schulkind: Just say YES, Stanley.
	🛒 12:44pm KevinfromBayRidge: FYI...the FMU stream & Android App is the only thing that kept me half-sane (outside of the temps) during the FLA sojourn.
	12:44pm Artie: Belock and Rex roped me in. Then I noticed all the other worlds in the WFMU galaxy. UM, given that Endless Boogie is workin' for you, you may enjoy Natural Child naturalchild.bandcamp.com
	12:46pm Alex In Illinois: My gateway show was Wasted Vinyl that I tuned in back in 1987, when I started living in Dobbs Ferry, New York, and communted into The City. Somewhere, I have an old WFMU listener's guide with the 7 Wonders of New Jersey, like the Mysterious Hyphens of Ho-Ho-Kus, or the one strange factory that actually emits pleasant aromas.
	12:46pm northguineahills: I remember reading about WFMU djs in some zine around '97. In '98, my job (while graduating university) was the only place w/ the bandwidth that could actually sometimes stream the primitive tinny WFMU stream at night. Moved here in 2000 for grad school, and the rest is history.
	12:47pm pacific standard simon: Belinda & Hova (Greasy Kid's Stuff) sucked me into WFMU like a monster vacuum cleaner. Sure wish they were on the Drummer stream these days.
	12:47pm northguineahills: (that was in FL)
	12:49pm Stanley: I couldn't believe it when I discovered WFMU. Nine years later and I still can't believe how lucky I am.
	12:49pm Uncle Michael: Sorry I'm not as active in my own comments as I'd like to be...I'm spinning plates. Ed Sullivan...do you hear me? I'M SPINNING PLATES.
	12:50pm Gary: Am embarrassed to admit just how much of a Klaatu fan I was.
	12:50pm northguineahills: In grad school, I'd take breaks from study by perusing the playlists (couldn't stream).
	12:50pm LovecraftDude888: Actually it can be found out on L.I. in Riverhead..hehe well it's not called Atlantis anymore. spinning plates? far out! I was shaving my awful face, then having lunch and doing coffee
	12:51pm Alex In Illinois: After I had lived in the Chicago for over a decade, and streaming radio stations started appearing, it was like 2005 or something, and I thought: "What was that station out of East Orange New Jersey? Hmm WFMU, I wonder if they are steaming". Then I did a search and found it, tuned it in, and Give The Drummer Some was playing and I thought: "Wow! And they are the best streaming station in the World!"
	12:52pm ndbob: Charlie's show got me started on WFMU back in the dial-up days
	12:52pm tater: Getting to listen today
	12:53pm LovecraftDude888: Glenn hell the NYC tourist .gov sites should have all that info...esp. re: the Central park rink if there is one still, and the midtown one at Rock Center is always going I think
	🛒 12:53pm Brian in UK: A funny thing happens some times when the stream dips out. It rebuffers and comes back as the main station programme ie if it were Doug's show it would change to Keili's. Any one else have the same effect.
	12:53pm LovecraftDude888: a few ice rinks out on LI too, but most pay at least to some degree, or part of the LI parks depts. etc.
	12:53pm Stanley: I found WFMU via a link on the fansite Beefheart.com. It described it as the 'best station in the world'.
	12:54pm glenn: glen jones' website has a link to weird new jersey, which i find endlessly fascinating.
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: Hey Tate...glad you could be here.
	12:54pm LovecraftDude888: UM my apologies, I hadn't realized you were in fact a DJ on here! or blanked on it..oh brother
	12:54pm Doug Schulkind: Actually, there is a streaming outfit in the Aussie outback that's better. But then again, it involves standing in an actual stream. And there are poisonous snakes and stuff. We are at least much safer.
	12:54pm earrie: In dialup days there was WNUR out of Northwestern U in Evanston, WWOZ out of New Orleans, and then, what the is this? WFMU in Jersey City.
	12:55pm Stanley: @Brian - you sure you're not developing strange powers?
	12:56pm glenn: stanley, i discovered wfmu through yo la tengo's site. my gateway show was either meghan or michael shelley, i can't remember which.
	🛒 12:56pm Brian in UK: Stanley, best station in the known or unknown universe. Jeez I need a beer now.
	12:57pm glenn: bill bryson helpfully points out that australia is home to the ten most poisonous species of animal in the world.
	12:57pm Stanley: Brian - I'm supposed to be going out right now to find some beer but I'm stuck on this show.
	12:58pm LovecraftDude888: I could never ice skate worth a shit...no balance, weak dainty ankles. I could roller skate ok though sort of
	12:58pm listener james from westwood: i had heard fmu once or twice during time home from college, but it was on sept. 14, 1992, the first day of my first real post-college job, when i was immersed in it. my new boss said, "i listen to this weird college radio station. if it ever bugs you, i can change the channel." it was a touching-the-monolith moment. i was pledging by the next marathon.
	12:58pm Stanley: I'm spittin' feathers!
	🛒 12:58pm KevinfromBayRidge: Henry St Alehouse for me tonight!
	🛒 12:59pm Brian in UK: Stanley, think Bill Mac has concerns that way already regarding my brain. Got some nice Polish rye vodka that has my name on it.
	1:00pm LovecraftDude888: McGasko hooked me up, sent my goodies fast as hell! thanks guys
	1:00pm LovecraftDude888: oh snap I used to go to Henry St. Alehouse sometimes years ago when I lived in the area--that place is good!
	1:01pm pacific standard simon: I'm gettin' it, buddy-boy, whether you want to give it up or not.
	1:01pm Stanley: Brian - only because he cares about you.
	1:02pm Stanley: Anyway, look at the time. I've gotta split, drink some beer and I'll be back.
	🛒 1:02pm Brian in UK: Thanks Stanley. Better get to the kitchen. I am in and out sharp tomorrow morning.
	1:03pm Andrew Waterloo: Doug, you have such beautiful eyes
	🛒 1:04pm KevinfromBayRidge: Yup, but a little pricier than I like. However the bartender, Pete is decent with buybacks.
	1:04pm Doug Schulkind: Most people like my nose better.
	1:04pm pacific standard simon: Despite the fact that my little island is about as far from New Jersey as it is possible to get in the contiguous U.S., it is nevertheless true that New Jersey and Washington share their state bird, the American Goldfinch (also Iowa, I think).
	1:07pm Andrew Waterloo: You gotta build up to stuff like that
	1:07pm LovecraftDude888: Henry St. was cool, burgers and stuff always good. I don't even drink no mo' so haven't been there in years now. I drove by it when I was in DUMBO the past few times. Also used to go to that diner off Cadman Plaza West....U know it!
	1:09pm Uncle Michael: Goodbye Stanley!
	1:09pm listener james from westwood: must duck out briefly but shall return!
	1:10pm LovecraftDude888: James from West...I've never had a boss that had cool taste in music. usually total spivs. wankers. tossers etc. I tried playing some Morton Feldman one day at my last job on LI and some housewife was like "WTF is thisss weird noise?" haha! I realized it was time to quit this job
	1:11pm Uncle Michael: See ya later james.
	1:13pm pacific standard simon: Your hot mic is letting us down -- no farts or belches (I'm wearing headphones).
	1:13pm efd: You're my morning show today, UM - I took the day off work for an early marathon recovery day after a busy week. Great show so far - it's no easy task being your own co-host.
	1:13pm Caryn: Aah, Hinky Dinky Time is a calming, balancing oasis during a slightly unsettling day. Ian Dury ain't hurting either.
	1:13pm Andrew Waterloo: I had a workmate named Ken that enjoyed Ken's show on Wednesday morning.
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, efd. I'm grateful for all your support and encouragement.
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Thank you all for the kind words.
	🛒 1:15pm KevinfromBayRidge: hey we're all your co-hosts in Studio T today!
	1:15pm Uncle Michael: damn right!
	1:16pm Caryn: I avoid listening to WFMU at work. Had to do it this week though (can't be missing the Marathon), and it was an endless race to keep the boss from finding out what I was doing. TGIF so I can look forward to a week of unhindered listening enjoyment.
	🛒 1:16pm Brian in UK: Ah Chaz Jankel.
	1:18pm northguineahills: When I am working (not currently), I can't work w/o music, therefore I listen to WFMU. It keeps me focused on the task at hand and keeps my ADD at bay.
	1:18pm Doug Schulkind: As Vermont says, "Eat more Cale!"
	1:23pm Caryn: How have I been unaware of this cover for 30 years?
	1:23pm Mike East: holy hell this is so much better than the original (and I don't HATE the original)
	🛒 1:23pm KevinfromBayRidge: Gotta go run (really!) along beautiful & fucking frigid NY Harbor now. This is the non-sane half of me talkin'. Thank Goodness that I'll be listening( but not commenting-YaY for youse guys) on de Android App.
	1:23pm Mike East: is there a number to call to pledge to this show or is it just on the interwebs?
	1:24pm northguineahills: I was going to echo Caryn's comment.
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: Web only, Mike
	1:25pm listener scott: WOOT! BOMBINO CD! Thanks Uncle Michael!
	1:26pm Uncle Michael: Thanks kevin!
	1:26pm Andrew Waterloo: When I saw Bombino play he had just gone through an emergency wisdom tooth extraction. Still fantastic.
	1:27pm pacific standard simon: As I recall, Roddy Frame loathed the original "Jump", did this as a mockery, and was disgusted when people thought it was a homage.
	🛒 1:27pm Brian in UK: Is there a Rutles tribute band?
	1:27pm glenn: that little george intro solo right there is way harder to play than you might think.
	1:28pm listener james from westwood: And then I realized I have a wifi-equipped device!
	1:29pm Gaylord Fields: @Brian in UK: There are a few. My favorite is Ouch! www.facebook.com...
	1:30pm Doug Schulkind: We got some cows mooing up in here!
	1:30pm Gary: Gaylord beat me to it. My own fave is Rutallica
	1:31pm LovecraftDude888: I'm planning on getting myself a tablet even a smaller one next month....getting tired of running about outside and not being able to hook in with the phones. need one!
	1:33pm LovecraftDude888: although a smartphone would give me more regular wifi web access than tablet...I think
	1:33pm Gaylord Fields: Back atcha, Uncle Michael!
	1:34pm LovecraftDude888: I swear it's the weirdest thing, when I drive in Nassau LI no WFMU it drifts, then right over Queens line, I get it strong!
	1:34pm LovecraftDude888: p.s. have fun Kevin! it's wicked cold out there
	1:35pm Doug Schulkind: MMmwertsd, 3nr2q3rpsd-]p9yu!!!
	1:37pm Gaylord Fields: No, you are blameless, Uncle Michael, and I apologize for inadvertently causing you consternation. I was just making a general remark about supermarket usage fail. I would never stoop to criticizing your grammar. That would be bush league.
	🛒 1:38pm Brian in UK: @Gaylord & Gary. Thanks. Gear.
	1:40pm Doug Schulkind: @Gaylord I implored that people pledge during your show Sunday evening when you used "comprised" correctly.
	1:42pm Uncle Michael: Thank you for the psychic reprieve, Gaylord.
	1:44pm pacific standard simon: Also, Gaylord, thank you for no UM blood all over everything.
	1:45pm pacific standard simon: Going to see the dominatrix -- strapped for cash.
	1:45pm Doug Schulkind: New headline just added to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette website: Cellist Yo-Yo Ma to receive Fred Rogers Legacy Award
	1:50pm LovecraftDude888: strapped-on for cash? oh my
	1:51pm Mike East: I've won 3 prizes so far.
	1:51pm listener james from westwood: Re: proper usage, just spotted in the CNN crawl--"US signals shift in tact toward Middle East peace talks."
	1:52pm Gaylord Fields: @Doug Schulkind: I talk it as I walk it.
	1:53pm glenn: gaylord gives good comment.
	1:53pm pacific standard simon: Coolest song ever.
	1:53pm glenn: and he's familiar with the ouvre of stompin' tom.
	1:55pm Gaylord Fields: @glenn: I'm a proud Canadophile.
	1:56pm Uncle Michael: something the canadaphobes will want to avoid next
	1:57pm Doug Schulkind: I love how the sweetest, soulful-est musical moment in the movie Car Wash is accompanied by scenes of butter packets falling from the ceiling on a guy's head.
	1:58pm Uncle Michael: Franklin Ajaye had the best Jewfro ever...(sorry Doug)
	1:58pm efd: Pags!
	1:58pm glenn: i like pagliaro. it's great pop.
	1:59pm Gaylord Fields: CanCon! Keep raiding the Beaver Bin, UM!
	2:00pm glenn: the beaver bin? i think my stripper ex fiance worked there.
	2:00pm listener jeff: woo-hoo! Thanks Uncle Michale!!!!
	2:01pm glenn: there's a toronto d.j. who calls herself sigourney beaver.
	2:01pm Doug Schulkind: @UM I didn't have a Jewfro. I had an Isro.
	2:03pm Doug Schulkind: Charlie will be back!
	2:03pm LovecraftDude888: Car Wash rules..haven't seen it in ages..."I'm looking for a tall, black blonde...I mean....a blond tall black girl.. I mean..a black blodne black blonde"
	2:03pm pacific standard simon: I do miss Charlie.
	2:03pm glenn: isro? i don't get it.
	2:04pm pacific standard simon: I'm not covering your nuts, Uncle Michael.
	2:04pm Doug Schulkind: Israel/afro, dude.
	2:04pm Gaylord Fields: @glenn: Touché. Apropos of nothing, it's likely that Queen Street has changed quite a bit since I was last there, in the 1990s. Nothing but hookers, donut shops and banks back then — and yes, I see the correlation.
	2:06pm glenn: oh. i'm a big duh-mmy.
	2:08pm glenn: yep. it's chain stores, hipsters and overly priced martinis now.
	2:11pm pacific standard simon: Face it folks, FMU is MUSIC CENTRAL in a way that no once-a-year festival ever could be.
	2:12pm Andrew Waterloo: The place I shop at is still cramped, dirty, sneaks you a glass of beer, and sells every new and decently used record in a plastic sleeve.
	2:14pm Doug Schulkind: I full Mouse of Today level pledge will shoot Uncle Michael's total up past the 75% mark. Make it happen!
	2:18pm glenn: dead like me fans - this is reggie all growed up. www.screened.com...
	2:26pm efd: This would certainly motivate me to pledge, if I hadn't pledged already.
	2:26pm listener james from westwood: nice to walk back into the jernt and hear abba playing!
	2:27pm Uncle Michael: I hear that, Evan!
	2:27pm Uncle Michael: James!
	2:28pm Andrew Waterloo: I'd be motivated too efd.
	2:29pm glenn: ernest. he's just about the best.
	2:31pm listener james from westwood: was briefly out of radar range but now i'm back in the work pit.
	2:36pm ndbob: When I first started collecting I went to a flea market at a school - talked to someone there - they said they had a bx of records at home they would give to me - and "The Trip" was in it
	2:37pm listener james from westwood: i would've had NO idea who kim fowley was had I not become an wfmu listener. for those inclined to dig into the archives, pseu braun had a long, career-spanning interview with him sometime in the oughts.
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: How could anyone part with that? I ask you.
	🛒 2:39pm Brian in UK: @ndbob Lovely Sorts of Death? or Lucy in the........ Name of Flaming Lips publishing.
	2:40pm glenn: indian summer could easily be april wine.
	2:42pm Doug Schulkind: Uncle Michael is now just TWO Mouse pledges away from reaching the gooooaaaaal!
	2:44pm Doug Schulkind: Westwood, NEW JERSEY! (I made the same mistake once, Uncle Michael.)
	🛒 2:45pm KevinfromBayRidge: back from the big freeze. Brother John was part of my gateway into good FM in 1969. He was a DJ on WABC-FM which soon became WPLJ. Amazingly, it was a great freeform station for afew years. After that I had to wait for FMU
	2:45pm still b/p: Is there another DJ on the globe that said "fuck" a moment after playing the Monkees today?
	2:45pm Doug Schulkind: Still have Lonnie Holley and Pere Ubu left.
	2:48pm Dominick: Marvelous!
	2:49pm northguineahills: Awesome!
	2:49pm pacific standard simon: This will not deter me from choosing your premium.
	2:49pm ndbob: wow UM!
	2:50pm Gaylord Fields: My dream of being a grateful Ernest Tubb has finally come true thanks to Uncle Michael!
	2:50pm listener james from westwood: omfg this is great.
	2:51pm northguineahills: James Cameron Cameron? where are the aliens?
	2:51pm listener scott: Instant classic.
