Listener comments!

8:53am Gary:

Hi Doug! Listening while submitting resumes (yet again)

🥁

8:55am listener james from westwood:

Best of luck with the current crop of resumes, Gary! And howdy, Doug and all!!

8:56am Doug Schulkind:

Resume your submitting, Gary! Good morning, Listener James!

🥁

8:59am listener james from westwood:

I should probably update mine, too. Take that junior-high penmanship award off. If only because there's no goddamn way I'm ever winning a penmanship award and it would be a BITTER LIE.

9:00am ndbob:

morning Doug and everyone!

9:01am Parq:

Hi gang. Doog, what was that funky guitar thing just before your intro kicked in?

9:01am Doug Schulkind:

Good morning, ndbob!

@Listener James
And you might want to change that Comic Sans to something more "dignified."

9:02am Doug Schulkind:

Hi Parq, that was "Senior Thump" by the Mohawks.

🥁

9:03am listener james from westwood:

@Doug: Good point. Do they still make that ransom note typeface the old Macs had?

🥁

9:04am listener james from westwood:

PAY ME $200,000 PER ANNUM OR I'LL FILL YOUR DESK DRAWERS WITH HERMIT CRABS

9:04am doca:

Hi, all! Nice gif, @Doug

9:06am Doug Schulkind:

Hey hey Doca!

9:06am Parq:

Call my agent -- I'm changing the name of the album to "Filling My Desk Drawer With Hermit Crabs."

9:07am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener James
Better desk drawers filled with hermit crabs than other drawers filled with other crabs. Amirite?!

🥁

9:07am Brian in UK:

Two tin cans and piece of string. Hello Doug 'n gentle folk.

🥁

9:08am listener james from westwood:

Heh, some places you pay them extra for that.

🥁

9:09am Brian in UK:

Bruno Mars on tape. Scheeesh.

9:09am Ike:

Sounds good. And at least when YOU have Internet connection problems sending the stream through, it doesn't default to BAD ELEVATOR MUSIC like some other stations I could mention. Okay, gotta go commute now, bye!

9:10am Doug Schulkind:

'Allo dear Brian in UK!

Hi Ike! Have fun commuting, UP or DOWN.

9:10am glenn:

bruno mars? give me hermit crabs anyday. or veronica mars.

🥁

9:11am Brian in UK:

They can no longer be hermit crabs then, shirley. The plural forces that.

9:14am Doug Schulkind:

I once had a hermit crab as a pet. Its name was Smedley. This is a true story.

9:14am glenn:

oh pshaw. a minor linguistic technicality. call them unabomber crabs.

🥁

9:15am listener james from westwood:

FMU had one named Galacto for a while. Why do I know this?

🥁

9:16am Brian in UK:

OK glen you have now become a glacial valley.

9:16am Doug Schulkind:

Our next selection wins the award for most over-used "thunder" sound effects in a three-minute song.

9:17am glenn:

jamie oliver's new dish - crabs manifesto.

9:18am Lore:

Lovely opening set, Drummer. Thank you kindly.

9:18am northguineahills:

Today's going to a toughy, Chris was playing a video of Vasthi Bunyon. How do I choose??

🥁

9:18am Brian in UK:

Nice one glenn.
Is there a sanity claws in there?

9:19am Parq:

I think we can all agree that "Crabs Manifesto" would be a good name for a band.

🥁

9:19am listener james from westwood:

That's that standard Castle Thunder sound effect, used almost as often in films as the Wilhelm Scream.

🥁

9:20am listener james from westwood:

@glenn—All power to the drawn butter!

9:20am Matt F:

Nice guitar on this Little Esther side!

9:20am Doug Schulkind:

It's an honor and a pleasure, Lore!

9:20am Crabs Manifesto:

We do Rock Lobster for an encore.

🥁

9:20am Brian in UK:

Did Mel Stormé cover this one.

9:21am Doug Schulkind:

How's about THIS guitar, Matt F!

Morning to you, glenn, ol' buddy!

9:21am Doug Schulkind:

Eddie Lambert is mangling the strings on this Chris Powell number, by the by.

9:23am Cecile:

Good morning, Captain

9:23am Doug Schulkind:

I see you up there, northguineahills!

🥁

9:24am Brian in UK:

We used to have Clive Powell aka Georgie Fame & the Blue Flames over here in the Sixties.

9:24am Cecile:

*Grandma Funk* I see you baby. Shakin that ass...

9:27am Cecile:

so sad.

9:28am Cecile:

I would never trade you for Clifford Brown, Doug.

🥁

9:28am listener james from westwood:

I recall that accident. Happy all were safe, sad for the loss of a bulletproof Tercel. Wish they still made them. I barely drive and all I need is a basic runabout that will last through multiple decades.

9:29am Doug Schulkind:

Admiral Cecile!

9:30am Doug Schulkind:

Mel Stormé! Hahaha!

9:31am Webhamster Henry:

I believe Madagascan valihas are also bamboo zithers (although the "strings" are arranged cynindrally).

9:32am davex:

Good day Doug and all!

🥁

9:32am Brian in UK:

I second Cecile, do not ever say that again & I love Clifford.

9:33am Doug Schulkind:

Now that's what I call intelligent design, Webhamster Henry!

Howdy davex!

9:34am Doug Schulkind:

@Webhamster Henry
In your honor I will plays some valiha during my next mic break.

9:35am davex:

Hi Brian, how's it going?

🥁

9:35am Brian in UK:

Hi davex, is the sun shining in Leipzig this afternoon. (sounds like some spy code).

9:35am Webhamster Henry:

Thanks! They sound great! It's hotter than Madagascar here anyway.

9:35am Cecile:

Flash stream has been terrible this week.

9:35am ndbob:

lovely track here Doug!

9:36am Doug Schulkind:

First stretch of truly hot weather all summer here, right now.

🥁

9:37am Brian in UK:

@iTunes delivers FMU most days.

🥁

9:39am listener james from westwood:

We had an unseasonally comfortable late August in northern NJ, and now it's mostly back to heat and glop.

9:39am Doug Schulkind:

Shit. Leaf-blower guy is back. He seems to do his thing every Friday morning. Maybe I should just hang a mic out the window and incorporate him into the show. "Pittsburgh Leaf Blower, in his natural element."

9:41am Gary:

I like that idea. Or fade him into the next zither track?

9:41am Cecile:

it was awful and muggy yesterday, but it's nice and cool today

🥁

9:42am Brian in UK:

Doug what the flipping heck do those things do apart from relocate. One of the most useless things next www.goop.com it goes with james' glop.

🥁

9:43am Brian in UK:

We have one come round every Saturday and I want to ram it up his fundamental orifice.

9:43am Cecile:

is he a gregarious Pittsburghian? You should get him on mic.

🥁

9:44am listener james from westwood:

There's a guy who leaf-blows a parking lot across from me. It's a Sisyphean labor.

9:45am Doug Schulkind:

All those leaf-blower guys blowing their leaves into the middle of the street. Where do they think the leaves are going to go?

Tad Friend wrote a great piece in the New Yorker on leaf blowing back in 2010: www.newyorker.com...

9:46am Doug Schulkind:

What happens if your wife goes into Sisyphean labor?!?

9:46am davex:

@Brian: The sun is high over Saxony. The sun is high over Saxony. Over.

9:46am Uncle Michael:

The Internet is a trio of tapping tubes.

9:46am ndbob:

been warm here too - I see that Jamestown is starting to cool down - lows in the 30s end of next week

🥁

9:46am listener james from westwood:

Biiig payday for the OB/GYN. Delivery after delivery after delivery!

9:47am Alex In Illinois:

Yes, the Kalinga Zither work is funkier than the Malagasy valiha playing, though both are enjoyable.

9:47am davex:

Wow, I didn't know the Balinese Jews had a harp orchestra!

9:49am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener James
Deliverance meets Groundhog Day!

Greetings, Alex in Illinois!

@davex
I heard that.

9:50am Webhamster Henry:

Speaking of Jew's harps, there's this conference in Austria coming up: AUSTRIAN-YAKUTIAN FRIENDSHIP: "KHOMUS & MAULTROMMEL" TOUR THROUGH AUSTRIA 2014 bit.ly...

9:50am Doug Schulkind:

The jegog sound is the most amazing sound. I am still a chickenshit DJ for not spinning the 35-minute track from this record.

9:51am glenn:

bwaaak bwaaak bwaak.

9:51am Doug Schulkind:

@Webhamster Henry
Ask Gary about Yakutian hip-hop and he well tell you stuff.

🥁

9:51am Brian in UK:

Love this line, who is the fascist?
He told me that, without a blower, maintaining his yard would take hours each week instead of fifteen minutes, and went on to term the Kendalls’ proposal “fascist,” and to suggest that Peter Kendall “get double-glazed windows and draw his drapes and just stay inside.”

9:52am Uncle Michael:

Wow, there's a Diga Rhythm Band track that totally lifts this.

9:52am davex:

Hold on, there was just a jew's harp conference here in town and I missed it?

9:52am Gary:

For some reason, my iTunes didn't like playing this set, so I've had to go Pop-up. Loving it, myself!

9:53am Alex In Illinois:

I love the mixture of textures, with the organic wooden or bamboo sound being in the lead.

9:55am Doug Schulkind:

Hello Brother Uncle Michael!

9:55am glenn:

i have to admit, leaf blowers are great for cleaning up a freshly shingled roof.

🥁

9:56am Brian in UK:

@davex my trousers are still on fire with a desultry flame.

🥁

9:58am Brian in UK:

@Alex if music could have a tactile quality, this is it.

10:00am Cecile:

This music right now sounds like Brazilian choro music

10:01am davex:

@Brian: Acknowledged and filed.

10:03am Cecile:

Get some Boil-Ease. That will pull it out. Get it now.

🥁

10:03am listener james from westwood:

If there's an audience who's gonna wanna hear the long version of that track, it's this one. Heck, I'm a Bryce veteran. Long is lovely!

10:03am Cecile:

Boil Ease

10:03am glenn:

slivers, man. i hate the fuckers.

10:04am Cecile:

it smells bad, but it both eases pain and pulls anything out.

10:04am Uncle Michael:

Ask the man who owns one.

10:04am Uncle Michael:

*that

10:05am Webhamster Henry:

Keep smoking those Luckys, Merle!

10:08am Doug Schulkind:

The word "boil" scares me in this context, Cecile.

10:14am Cecile:

It works, Doug. My dad used it for splinters, thorns, anything. put it on at night, and 99% of the time it's moved out of there in the AM

🥁

10:14am listener james from westwood:

Killer twang set!

10:15am ndbob:

indeed James!

10:16am Doug Schulkind:

Funny. I named this set "Twang" in my iTunes playlist folder.

10:19am Alex In Illinois:

In Chicago, they paint the River green.

10:20am Doug Schulkind:

Unless the painter is the Dave Matthews band tour bus driver...

10:21am Doug Schulkind:

Thanks, Cecile. I will investigate.

10:22am glenn:

gaaaaahhhh!!! dave matthews. the awful, it burns.

10:24am Alex In Illinois:

Yes. The Chicago area was very angry with the Dave Mathews band for that incident, for about a year or so. Then Dave Mathews apologized, and the band was forgiven.

10:25am Doug Schulkind:

"Long is lovely." "Bryce is nice, and next."

I love Bryce.

10:26am Uncle Michael:

What is this "Bryce" of which you speak. I know not...

10:26am Uncle Michael:

I never see the dark side of the moon.

10:27am Doug Schulkind:

Bryce Kretschmann. WFMU DJ on Friday afternoons.

10:27am Alex In Illinois:

Actually, if the crap had fallen straight from the tour bus into the river itself, nobody would have cared. It was that people on the tour boat that was passing under the bridge got the shit on their faces.

10:28am Uncle Michael:

Hmmm...I thought it was a myth...a parable. Like where children go when they're bad.

10:28am Cecile:

The vulture has to be a parable or something.
1) Vultures don't like moving things
2) a baby of that age is probably too heavy.'

10:29am Uncle Michael:

I meant Bryce, Cecile.

10:30am Webhamster Henry:

I was just thinking harps + jazz = Alice Coltrane.

10:30am Cecile:

I still would have posted it, Uncle Michael. Vultures don't snatch babies.

10:30am Uncle Michael:

If Bryce is real then all the children better behave.

10:30am glenn:

well, dead babies they do.

10:30am Cecile:

But it's a great song. I just replace "vulture" with "human evil I cannot name" and it works.

🥁

10:31am listener james from westwood:

Bryce is like Brigadoon. He emerges from the mists, plays like three ultra-long sonic beauties over 3 hr, and then fades away.
Doug, that Alice Gerrard cut was incredible.

10:31am glenn:

especially the ones in the middle of the road.

10:31am Cecile:

no, they like to chomp down opportunistically. Thye don't bring stuff home often.

I was friends with a vet who worked at a raptor center.

10:32am glenn:

funny. i was just waxing poetic about brigadoon last night.

10:33am Cecile:

the vulture could also be a metaphor for death by other means. Illness, accident, etc.

10:33am ndbob:

@Cecile Sounds like quite an interesting job

10:35am Cecile:

Yeah, I never got over there, but she had great stories.

10:35am Alex In Illinois:

@#$%^! Must join a conference call

10:36am Cecile:

I also had friends who belonged to a local herpetological society (snakes). That was less fun. One of them bit me real good.

10:37am Doug Schulkind:

Brigadoon. Just the word makes me happy.

Tell 'em to @#$%^ off, Alex!

10:37am Doug Schulkind:

Music that makes you want to snap your fingers is good music.

10:38am still b/p:

You was snake-bit? How many people here can say that?

10:39am Cecile:

Do you think Amram is underrated, Doug? I've often read reviews that sound like damning with faint praise about him, and it doesn't jive with what I hear. I enjoy his music.

10:39am Uncle Michael:

We thought you was a toad.

10:39am Cecile:

ANATOMY OF A MURDER was written by a Yooper judge, and was filmed in Marquette, Mi. (aka Iron city)

10:40am Doug Schulkind:

I adore Amram, Cecile. He is a heavyweight.

Hellooooo, still b/p!

10:41am Cecile:

it was a nasty little green snake called Yig. Its evil owner told me it was gentle, and since I wasn't afraid of snakes, I held him when he gave him to me. Then the little bastard stuck in all his fangs. It felt like four hypodermic needles meeting in my bones. Another friend pried him off me. I was pretty PO'd, especially since Yig's owner laughed heartily the whole time.

🥁

10:44am listener james from westwood:

Alex, do what I do: Play FMU in the background.

10:44am Doug Schulkind:

I once got bit on the lip by a friend's bird. Bird's name was (is) Treble, but was nothing but trouble. Actually, he is a dear bird. I take it back.

🥁

10:45am listener james from westwood:

Cecile, was the owner a Lovecraft fan? Re: the name, that is.

10:46am Cecile:

My nice friend eventually adopted Yig when evil dude moved. But he had to keep him away from his other snakes, and wear super thick gloves to take him out to clean his cage. He died. I wish it had been by my hand, but alas.

Birds are awesome creatures, but I am not enough of a good person to nurture one for its whole long life.

10:46am Cecile:

Listener james, absolutely. Lovecraft is like Danielle Steele in my circles. I know all the names, but couldn't make it past the intro of one book. I might try again.

10:47am Doug Schulkind:

Next up, one of the most gorgeousest Anthony Braxton tunes like ever!

10:48am Cecile:

anthony braxton doing pretty? I will have to hear.

10:49am Doug Schulkind:

Birds live so so long. Turtles even longer!

10:49am still b/p:

Yowch! Dogs, bugs and a chipmunk, yes, but never bitten by a snake. Would freak a person out.
Good morning.
Here are couple of instances showing how WFMU can be sort of weirdly tentacular in the world:
I'm looking for a certain kind of music the other day, and I find the British Library collection of field recordings, and I wonder if Drummer has checked those clips, and I find in his offered links that, of course, he's been there and has recommended it, and what else is in those links? Lord Buckley, and I decide to expand my light familiarity with him, so I read a bit on an LB site and idly check out the art on one of his album covers, and it gets me to who/what? Irwin and the books he's put together on artist Jim Flora.
Later that day, shortly after hearing "Ding" on Ken's show and then pointing a commenter inquiring about it on Duane's show to Ken's playlist, I was downtown and ran into one of the musicians who created the track.
I don't know if any of that makes sense as described, but there was a funny kind of woof-moo weave goin' on. ....Even while there's this vein contrary to the common path & note crossings in which I find almost NO awareness of WFMU among most people I speak to 'round here.

10:49am northguineahills:

I have a few Anthony Braxton records of him doing jazz standards.

10:49am doca:

I thought the same, @Cecile.

10:51am tikk:

I remember benig about 16; my friend and I were stoned and accidentally heard Anthony Braxton on college radio--far less gorgeous and more discordant than this, which is clearly the exception to the rule--and our minds pretty much imploded.

10:51am Cecile:

He does a KILLER version of Red Top. It's excellent and funny.

🥁

10:51am listener james from westwood:

@Cecile: Awesome. You have good circles.
Re: little green snakes: I used to listen to the soundtrack of the musical "Take Me Along" incessantly as a kid. Don't know why. Dug musicals. Here's one performed in the original cast by the Great One, Jackie Gleason: "Little Green Snake," in which he shares, w/ a guy hung the hell over, his own experience w/ the DTs:

Did you see my green snake?
My little green snake?
Was he hangin' from the ceiling like a fly does?
Did he wipe away a tear and ask where I was?
In his heart he's such a gentle little cuss.

Did you see the green man?
And the tattooed Indi-an?
Now did you know their names are Muck and Merkle?
See, I know this 'cause I'm in the inner circle.
I am one of them, and now, you're one of us.

Oh, the flying alligators are delightful,
I would see those little fellows in the hall.
And when I was in my cups,
They'd lick my hands like pups,
But the one I miss at twilight most of all...

Is my little green snake
In the little blue tree.
When my world starts gettin' hazy,
There's one question drives me crazy:
When my little snake gets drunk, does he see me?

From memory, so I may have missed a syllable here & there. You're lucky I'm not there or I'd have inflicted it on you all in song.

10:52am Doug Schulkind:

@still b/p
Thank you for "tentacular"

@NGH
Thems are lovely records. On the Inner City label, if I remember correctly.

Welcome aboard, tikk! You should try Anthony Braxton's marching band music. You won't need weed.

🥁

10:53am listener james from westwood:

still b/p: Wild chain of events! FMU is the little green snake that bites its own tail. (A herpetologist is looking into it.)

10:53am Cecile:

Listener, that snake song is amazing. I have to find it.

10:53am Doug Schulkind:

At least people are talking about snakes and not spiders.

Speaking of oddball marching band music, this duet sounds apt.

10:53am doca:

@Doug/Cecile: Have you heard that 4-CD box with the Braxton-Joe Morris duet on Clean Feed? Those are pretty recordings too, though more Braxtonish in a way

10:53am Cecile:

ourobourous-a-riffic

10:54am Cecile:

no, doca, I have to check that out.

10:54am northguineahills:

My Anthony Braxton record section is huge. When I met Tyondai, he didn't mind that I brought up his father since he said rarely any one professed their love for his father's work (amongst the younguns)(this was 10 years ago)

10:54am Doug Schulkind:

I do believe that was Han Bennink chanting "salt peanuts, salt peanuts" !!!!!!

10:55am Cecile:

that is very cool, ngh. But it's sad that the children don't know of Braxton.

10:55am still b/p:

I wish FMU would put "Ourobouros-a-riffic!" on a t-shirt.

10:56am doca:

I guess children don't know even of Tyondai Braxton...

10:56am northguineahills:

Of the standards Braxton recs I have, one is on A&M, the other on Leo.

10:56am Doug Schulkind:

I interviewed Mr. Braxton for my college radio show back in '82. Was scared shitless.

10:57am doca:

What's the link to the Braxton net label in which he puts his new releases for download?

10:58am northguineahills:

'82, that was about the time of Braxton's 'classic' group, and when Graham Locke did an mindbending book about their tours.

10:58am Doug Schulkind:

@NGH
I was thinking of these Steeplechase records issued in the US on Inner City:

Vol 1: www.discogs.com...
Vol 2: www.discogs.com...

10:58am Cecile:

the children worry me.
I am going to work a musical component into the inevitable presentation I will have to do in History of Graphic design.

10:59am northguineahills:

Founds it! (recommended): www.amazon.com...

11:00am doca:

I didn't know it, @ngh. Thanks for the reference up here!

11:00am Cecile:

that looks like a great book.
And i have Amazon credit from gaming the system.

11:00am northguineahills:

Cool, Doug, thanks!

11:00am Doug Schulkind:

A brilliant book, NGH. If Jeff or Jeff from Destination Out were here, they would second and third me.

11:01am Cecile:

Braxton became less fearsome to me when I learned he loved doo wop and the Dave Brubeck Quartet.

11:02am northguineahills:

I loaned it to a friend a while back, so I no longer have it :(

Braxton was also a huge Charles Ives fan.

11:02am doca:

Braxton was in São Paulo two weeks ago on a quartet with Mary Halvorson, Taylor Ho Bynum and Tyshawn Sorey (I guess). I tortured myself on Brazil being such a big country and I could afford to travel to São Paulo at the time.

11:03am doca:

*couldn't afford...

11:03am d¢ pät:

hey kids, kind of off topic but what's the name of that Japanese film, b&W with a crazy jazz group in it and guns and crap? Don't know much about it but hoping all the smart folks on here can help me out...

11:04am Gary:

Back after a computer crash

11:04am d¢ pät:

crap, gotta read that Braxton book too...

11:04am northguineahills:

One of the most awesome shows I've been to was Braxton and Leo Wadada Smith. My brain felt like I popped a molly.

11:05am doca:

Have any of you read that George Lewis' book on AACM? It's great too (and a historian myself I find it awesome in historical-writing and thinking terms)

11:06am Cecile:

I've seen Braxton twice with bands that were not up to his level. He was dragging them around, and it was hard to hear.

11:07am Cecile:

WOW! Congrats, Doug's dad!

11:09am northguineahills:

@doca:I read a review of it, it should be my next music book I read.

11:10am Doug Schulkind:

Hello there, d¢ pät!

Oh noes, Gary!

11:11am d¢ pät:

Hey Drummer Some. I guess I'm thinking of the Warped Ones or Black Sun. mrs dc pat is out of town this weekend so I have to fill up on Japanese cinema...

11:13am doca:

@ngh: I strongly recommend it.
@Doug: gotta lunch! Thanks for the show and especially for the Braxton tune

11:13am Doug Schulkind:

@doca
I have read George Lewis' book. It is packed with historical info about the AACM. Overwritten with excessive academic jargon, but still — a must read.

11:15am Charlie:

Hi Doug, and all. Stopping by to say hi and hear some superior sounds.

11:16am doca:

@Doug: Yeah, but I'm used to the jargon eheh it surprised me too, but it is really a legitimate history of the thing. See ya later!

11:16am Doug Schulkind:

Great to see you, Charlie!

11:18am Doug Schulkind:

@d¢ pät
That is a film with which I am unfamiliar.

🥁

11:19am listener james from westwood:

How do, Charlie!

11:19am Doug Schulkind:

For all you clamoring to hear MORE music from the Philippines, why I hope you're proud of yourselves. (Even more coming up at the end of this set.)

11:20am Gary:

Yay

11:21am Charlie:

Hiya James!

11:22am d¢ pät:

pretty sure I heard about it on one of the FMU boards....I thought it was black and white with a man and woman being chased and a bunch of cuts to some kids playing fast bop-style jazz.

11:23am Dean:

Mabuhay Singers?

11:24am Uncle Michael:

Is the stream cutting in and out for anyone else? I need to know if it's me before my show starts!

11:24am Gary:

That Lee Jang Hee track was off the charts

11:25am d¢ pät:

Yes U Mike, me too.

🥁

11:25am βrian:

Yep. Mine just hiccuped.

11:25am Gary:

Yeah, it's happening to me too, Michael

11:25am Uncle Michael:

Speaking of which, it will be over here:

www.wfmu.org...

Please join me at the top of the hour.

11:25am Dean:

Yes, stuttering blips.

11:25am Uncle Michael:

Thanks, guys.

11:26am Doug Schulkind:

My iTunes feed of the stream has been steady. Buffered a couple of times before I started, but (knock wood) no issues since 9am (ET).

11:27am Charlie:

I had buffering issues, but they went away after I re-started Winamp.

11:27am d¢ pät:

11:28am Goyim in the AM:

DC Pat speaks the truth. (Hi y'all.)

Yazza! Goyim in the AM is here! Nice to see you GintA!

11:30am βrian:

I think I may have to base my choice of lunch on one of these cuts. What shall it be?

11:31am Doug Schulkind:

Up next, one more track from the Philippines, but that's IT!

11:31am Gary:

Awrighty

11:32am Doug Schulkind:

@βrian
Stay away from that poison blowfish meal. Just too damn scary.

11:33am Doug Schulkind:

Forgot to say hey, Dean. HEY, DEAN!

11:33am Dean:

I hear you, loud and clear. Hey!

11:34am Uncle Michael:

Fugo'daboudit?

11:34am d¢ pät:

poison blowfish--essential ingredient when creating zombies...

11:34am Goyim in the AM:

Hey y'all! (I am usually here on Friday afternoons Euro time, but because I am in the business called show, usually too busy to join the chat.)

🥁

11:34am βrian:

The restaurant, Fugu, is just up the street, as it happens.
But I'm thinking bibimbap ...

11:35am Doug Schulkind:

I'm cheered to know you're out there, GintA!

11:36am Uncle Michael:

11:36am Gary:

Damnit. Cutting out again

11:36am Dean:

Blowfish in the stream...

11:37am Uncle Michael:

🥁

11:37am listener james from westwood:

A bit skippy on this side via iTunes, now.

11:40am Goyim in the AM:

Holy cow. What's the bass player on this one named, Mickey "Mouse" Meyer? On the Xats/T-Lov label?

11:41am Doug Schulkind:

I'm guessing it's a WFMU web-connectivity issue. I will alert Jeff "Poobah" Moore.

@Uncle Michael
Kansas and Pennsylvania are tied for 19th most obese states.

11:42am ndbob:

Nice one here Doug!

11:44am Uncle Michael:

We're going to kick your ersatz fat asses in 2015, Doug. Just you wait!

11:45am Doug Schulkind:

My ass fat is REAL, Uncle Michael!

11:45am Uncle Michael:

That's what you *say*.

11:46am Carmichael:

Catching the last 15. Hi Doug and drumheads.

11:46am still b/p:

Forget Jazzercise, Fatzersatz is the program ya want.

11:46am Doug Schulkind:

GIVE THE DRUMMER RADIO PROGRAMMING ALERT...
Uncle Michael and his skinny posterior will be shaking over here with Hinky Dinky Time: wfmu.org...

HDT with UM begins in 14 minutes!

🥁

11:46am Brian in UK:

Better go walk the dawg.
Soon as I write this Carmichael appears.

Good work, Doug.

11:47am Uncle Michael:

Ersatzercise is how we keep 'em so tight, so round, so fully-packed.

11:48am Dean:

Preparing a couple banana splits, half a dozen hot dogs, pork chops smothered in gravy, and cheesy mashed potatoes for lunch during the UM show. Doing my best to propel, so to speak, California to the top of the heap.

11:48am Doug Schulkind:

Shalom, Carmichael!

11:49am Doug Schulkind:

@Goyim in the AM
I've been looking for that Mickey "Mouse" Meyer disc forever. Will pay top dollar!

🥁

11:50am Brian in UK:

@Dean couple of lettuce leaves on the side, perhaps.

11:50am Doug Schulkind:

This Gwen McRae cut would go nicely with Little Esther's "The Storm" from earlier in the show.

11:51am Doug Schulkind:

Sadly, no "rain" sound effects here. Cheap production values.

11:51am Dean:

@Brian: Deep-fried lettuce, yeah, maybe.

🥁

11:52am Brian in UK:

Oh man, I dispare!! To the woods.

11:53am Doug Schulkind:

Quoting Gwen McRae:
"Come on home and do me right, right now, baby."

11:54am Goyim in the AM:

He was the bass player for WEB & the Austin Healeys, right Doug?

11:55am Cecile:

any relation to Darius Rucker?
I saw on some documentary that his grandparents sang gospel

11:56am ndbob:

excellent show Doug!

11:56am Uncle Michael:

Another blowfish reference!

11:57am Cecile:

hahahahha UM

11:57am Uncle Michael:

Thanks for the great show, Doug. See you all in the next room.

11:57am Doug Schulkind:

Wiki:
Darius Carlos Rucker was born and raised in Charleston, South Carolina, where his family history goes back generations. His single mother, Carolyn, a nurse, raised him with his three sisters and two brothers. According to Rucker, his father was never around, and Rucker only saw him before church on Sundays. His father was in a gospel band called The Rolling Stones. Rucker has said that he had a typical Southern, African-American upbringing. His family attended church every Sunday and was economically poor, and at one point, his mother, her two sisters, his grandmother, and 14 children were all living in a three-bedroom home. But he says that he looks back on his childhood with very fond memories.

11:58am Doug Schulkind:

One fish two fish, blow fish dead human.

Thanks ndbob and thanks EVERYbody!

🥁

11:59am listener james from westwood:

I'm gonna take a wild guess and assume the rest of this track will be as kickass as the other 3 hours and say, Excellent show, Doug!

11:59am Cecile:

I like the guy. Not wild about his music, but I understand why people like it. And he's a serious country fan and record collector

12:00pm still b/p:

Really liked Candle Light! Thanks for goot goot show.

12:00pm Gary:

Thanks Doug!

12:01pm Doug Schulkind:

That guess was raised in captivity, Listener James.
