	♥ 10:18am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, gang! Mondays, amirite?

	10:22am bobdoesthings: @greg - you ain't wrong. I checked the calendar.
	10:23am Cecile: holaaaa
	♥ 10:25am Greg from ZONE 5: I was in Cape May/Wildwood all weekend. Things are so much better there. I can breathe and sleep and EVERYTHING.
	♥ 10:27am Nasty Les: Late 90's/early 00's seems to be the golden era for pre-gap tracks. Remember this Autechre one well.
	♥ 10:27am Ken From Hyde Park: Aside from financial ruin, it turns out I left a plum sitting on the cupboard and was greeted by a thousand fruit flies yesterday. Down the vacuum nozzle they go.
	10:44am KP: Please ...
	10:48am bobdoesthings: I've been pronouncing Autechre as "out-etcher" this whole time. Is it really 'Ought-ecker'? just curious..
	10:51am bobdoesthings: hah! I was not trying to correct you chris! haha, just curious. thanks tho!
	10:52am this guy: I've always said, aw-tech-ra, regardless of whether its right or not, just rolls off better
	10:53am JakeGould: Potus playlist from Nixon? Thrilling!
	10:54am Cecile: hahahahah
	♥ 10:54am Nasty Les: I remember reading an interview with Autechre where they said they didn't really mind how people pronounced it/there wasn't any "official" pronunciation, but they themselves pronounced it in a similar way to Chris M (but with a Rochdale accent)
	10:54am tonyb: by '75 he was kicking back exiled in key biscayne
	♥ 10:56am Ken From Hyde Park: @ChrisM - See if you can find Nixon's enemies list and see if anyone appears on both lists. I'm betting Up With People is on both.
	10:56am Cliff: Actually, Nixon resigned so that Congress wouldn't be able to impeach him.
	10:56am Cecile: hahahahahaah
	10:58am JakeGould: Today is the first day of school in some parts of the U.S. so this “Let’s listen to the Nixon playlist!” thing is very first day of school.
	♥ 10:58am common: ah yes.
	10:58am SeanG: Harry!
	♥ 10:59am dave: Yes, that's what we always did on our first day of school. It made it so much easier to go back after the summer break.
	10:59am Chris M.: just a little history lesson! i found it fascinating myself
	10:59am Dr. Goot: Harry indeed!
	♥ 11:01am Andrew Waterloo: I've bounced between Oh-tek-rah and Aw-tek-er
	11:01am P-90: @Chris M: Just checking in to say hello and confim that I'm having the ususal imaginary good monday morning with soundtrack by you.
	11:02am Chris M.: thanks P-90!
	11:02am Jim Price: Funny how most of Nilsson's big hits were written by other artists. He was such a brilliant songwriter.
	11:04am Cecile: True, but he was also a brilliant singer and interpreter. A rare combination.
	11:05am Bob: Nixon really had Field a Commander Cohen on his list?.? Bizarre
	11:05am Chris M.: @Bob: i have a feeling he really didn't pay attention to lyrics!
	11:05am Cecile: one horse is green!
	11:06am Cecile: IRL, he probably just had Elvis, Glen Campbell and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.
	11:06am Jim Price: I agree Cecile.
	11:07am Cecile: It sounds crazy, but I still miss the guy.
	11:07am JakeGould: There’s no way Nixon could ever appreciate Leonard Cohen.
	11:07am PKNY: Now every time I give AC I spin from now on, I'll be thinking of Tricky Dick. Thanks!
	11:07am Chris M.: i got this playlist from CNN and it's been confirmed in his biography
	11:08am Cecile: hahahahahahhaa I love you and your mindfuckery, Chris.
	11:11am bobdoesthings: NO WAY!
	11:11am Cecile: crying here.
	11:11am Cecile: I am picturing Pat in a negligee.
	11:12am bobdoesthings: I don't buy nixon had this on his list..
	♥ 11:12am common: hee
	11:12am Dr. Goot: Did "China Girl" make the cut?
	11:13am Cecile: this is Chris M's world. It's a much cooler funnier place than the one we live in.
	11:13am PKNY: I can soooo picture Dick lip-synching the Serge parts to himself in a mirror.
	11:15am Parq: Look, Mommy and Daddy are wrestling!
	11:15am bobdoesthings: @pkny.. and exploring himself for BB's parts.. with his eyes closed... sweat accumulating on his brow..
	11:15am DaveinPA: Get a room already!
	11:15am Cheri Pi: I misssed Aphrodite's Child while heating up my tea???
	11:15am Lewis: @bobdoesthings: I am having a bit of trouble with it myself...
	11:16am Cecile: I stayed up listening to Queen. When I was 17.
	11:16am PKNY: My name was Brian McGhee.
	11:18am PKNY: @Cecile - glad to know I'm not the only one who thinks of "The Simpsons" when I hear "When I was Seventeen".
	11:18am Cheri Pi: I started college when I was 17
	11:18am Cecile: oh, that show has warped my mind in ways I thought not possible. You are so flippin' awesome, Pi.
	11:20am P-90: Dick used to listen to Frank's version of this over and over in the Oval Office, alone late at night, in those dark Last Days, during the Watergate Hearings. While putting away ahalf a decanter of vSOP.
	11:20am PKNY: Agreed, warped in the best possible ways.
	11:22am bobdoesthings: ok.. this is a joke. right?
	11:22am Cecile: It was a joke the minute he put on CCS.
	11:23am Chris M.: i feel like just with the current #POTUSPlaylists, there may have been an intern involved with the selection process. just my own opinion
	11:23am Cecile: I think some hippies broke into the Oval Office and faked it.
	11:25am Cheri Pi: hahaha
	11:25am Cecile: Was Nixon a BOC fan?
	11:26am JakeGould: If it was Nixon’s intern that made this list it would be some pimply-faced 15 year old virgin who only listened to “The Kingsmen” and nothing else.
	11:26am foofs: One Toke Over the Line next!
	11:26am Cheri Pi: Can we hear Millard Fillmore's playlist next week?
	11:26am foofs: Or Venus in Furs!
	11:27am Cecile: How about Argent/3 Dog Night's "Liar"
	♥ 11:27am Kali G: Tricky Dicky from Lorba Linda, ah ha, sounds like ole Mihouse did more in the underground White House bowling alley then just slip and slide with a martini, more like lighting up doobies with his peeps Abbie Hoffman and Tim Leary,… Oh Ya!!!!
	11:28am Chris M.: sorry but i am only playing the actual songs Nixon chose for his #POTUSPlaylist this week.
	11:29am Cecile: hahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahah
	11:29am foofs: It's a very unQuakerish selection for such a devout man...
	11:30am Whooda: Suuper-duuper show DJ Chris M.
	11:30am Chris M.: @Whooda: thank you!
	11:31am Cecile: Nixon had some pretty hip taste.
	11:31am Parq: I think Chris has made himself perfectly clear.
	11:31am Cheri Pi: what foofs said
	♥ 11:32am Kali G: Dick was a very mysterious man in search of a soul, even if it was not his own.
	11:33am KP: Saw them play this the night Nixon resigned
	11:34am briania: The musical taste of RMN was pretty well documented: "When the Fords moved in, Betty Ford found one of the Nixons’ boxes. “It was marked, ‘Tapes, Do Not Touch,’ ... turns out, it was filled with the former president’s Mantovani recordings." (via firstladies.org).
	11:34am Cheri Pi: This one goes out to Stevens T. Mason, never forget that terrible war
	11:34am Joe B: Where even Richard Nixon has got soul.
	♥ 11:35am Kali G: There was once that leaked photo of him crying over the dead student at Kent State, yep, this is all started to make sense now!
	11:35am Joe B: Only Neil Young could put out an 8-CD box set and leave this live version off it
	11:36am Cecile: Neil hates us all.
	♥ 11:38am Ken From Hyde Park: How did the one Simpson's episode go? "On this spot in 1973, Richard Nixon bowled consecutive 300 games."
	♥ 11:38am Kali G: It was rumored that Sammy Davis Jr is the one who turned Dick onto the hip music that the kids protesting were listening to, for he wanted to get into the minds of the next generation that would eventually become Republicans as they aged.
	11:39am P-90: Haldeman's memoir states that "all calls were held and interruptions kept to a minimun" once a week when Dick would watch "Jimmy Duarante Presents The Lennon Sisters" in the Press Lounge.
	11:40am Parq: Kai G, judging from the number of boomers I know who are Repubs, or centrist Democrats who support GOP initiatives, it must have worked.
	♥ 11:40am Stevel: Little known fact. RMN secretly recorded backups for Sympathy for the Devil which were added into the final mix.
	11:41am Richard Nixon: hey what s up? i listened all the WireTappers. they are good.
	11:42am P-90: @Stevel: you might be confusing Dick with Carly Simon on that one.
	♥ 11:42am Kali G: Yes Parq, it was all part of the evil plan that President Dick hatched, the man was actually a genius in ways we are only now understanding,… just wait thill Chris M. shows how the Dick was actually the father of Hip Hop!!!!
	11:43am Cecile: CNN is the Chris M. News Network.
	11:43am northguineahills: @Cheri PI: I'd also love to see Millard Filmore's set.
	♥ 11:43am Stevel: P-90: Damn! that happens all the time.
	11:43am Joe B: ha, great one Cecile!
	11:44am bobdoesthings: I would imagine today.. there are a team of 10-20 youths toiling over the presidential playlist.. and has little to do with the actual politicians likes
	♥ 11:44am common: haha! ngh!
	♥ 11:46am Greg from ZONE 5: Did you have brijet fact check all this information, Chris?
	11:46am foofs: @bobdoesthings Looking at Barack's tasteful playlist, you'd never know he's a juggalo.
	11:46am Cheri Pi: Mr. CP is obsessed with Bohemian Grove... I betcha they listen to some Queen there late at night.
	11:47am Cecile: YEAH
	11:47am Chris M.: @Greg from ZONE 5: citation needed
	11:47am Cheri Pi: NICE
	11:47am Cecile: I'd like to hear Warren Harding's playlist. Probably lots of "hot jazz"
	11:48am Cecile: Hearing Killdozer during election day 2008 was one of the most stirring experiences ever. Seriously.
	11:49am bobdoesthings: @foofs- HAH!
	♥ 11:50am Andrew Waterloo: I can just ole trick Dick putting Je t'aime on the ole real-to-real for a visiting dignitary and then demanding a pause for his favourite part.
	11:51am Cecile: I knew nothing about this Bohemian Grove, and I thought I was fairly OK about history.
	♥ 11:51am Kali G: Makes me wonder just what sounds POTUS Trump has spinning in his ears and echoing inside the empty chamber,… hmmm, perhaps we will have to wait for Chris to let us know in 40 years when he is running FMU as an iron fisted station manager,… the likes that will have Ken spinning in his urn.
	11:53am Cheri Pi: POTUS playlists need to become the next listener challenge. I need some new swag.
	11:53am northguineahills: Grew up next to the Van Zant clan manor. Knew quite a few of the Skynard progeny in HS.
	11:54am Cheri Pi: seriously NGH? you ar my hero for the day, it was Chris M until your revelation.
	11:56am bobdoesthings: whoah.. noon already. Thanks Chris!!
	11:57am northguineahills: Decent, but weird kids (even by my standards).
	♥ 11:57am Kali G: I just wrote something short.
	11:58am Cecile: I can't even imagine growing up in that kind of environment and not turning into a variant of Liza Minelli.
	♥ 11:59am Kali G: Once Chris M's show is done for the week, I plug my ears up with cotton and gum, refusing to listen to anything till next Monday morning, that is just how it is, sorry!
	11:59am Doctor Gonzo: Trump loves Teenage Enema Nurses in Bondage by Killer Pussy
	♥ 11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: How about some SCOTUS playlists at some point? I'll bet Scalia has opera tunes in his.
	12:00pm P-90: Thanks Chris, and My Fellow Americans
	12:02pm Cheri Pi: good job Chris!!

	11:13am Cecile: this is Chris M's world. It's a much cooler funnier place than the one we live in.
	11:13am PKNY: I can soooo picture Dick lip-synching the Serge parts to himself in a mirror.
	11:15am Parq: Look, Mommy and Daddy are wrestling!
	11:15am bobdoesthings: @pkny.. and exploring himself for BB's parts.. with his eyes closed... sweat accumulating on his brow..
	11:15am DaveinPA: Get a room already!
	11:15am Cheri Pi: I misssed Aphrodite's Child while heating up my tea???
	11:15am Lewis: @bobdoesthings: I am having a bit of trouble with it myself...
	11:16am Cecile: I stayed up listening to Queen. When I was 17.
	11:16am PKNY: My name was Brian McGhee.
	11:18am PKNY: @Cecile - glad to know I'm not the only one who thinks of "The Simpsons" when I hear "When I was Seventeen".
	11:18am Cheri Pi: I started college when I was 17
	11:18am Cecile: oh, that show has warped my mind in ways I thought not possible. You are so flippin' awesome, Pi.
	11:20am P-90: Dick used to listen to Frank's version of this over and over in the Oval Office, alone late at night, in those dark Last Days, during the Watergate Hearings. While putting away ahalf a decanter of vSOP.
	11:20am PKNY: Agreed, warped in the best possible ways.
	11:22am bobdoesthings: ok.. this is a joke. right?
	11:22am Cecile: It was a joke the minute he put on CCS.
	11:23am Chris M.: i feel like just with the current #POTUSPlaylists, there may have been an intern involved with the selection process. just my own opinion
	11:23am Cecile: I think some hippies broke into the Oval Office and faked it.
	11:25am Cheri Pi: hahaha
	11:25am Cecile: Was Nixon a BOC fan?
	11:26am JakeGould: If it was Nixon’s intern that made this list it would be some pimply-faced 15 year old virgin who only listened to “The Kingsmen” and nothing else.
	11:26am foofs: One Toke Over the Line next!
	11:26am Cheri Pi: Can we hear Millard Fillmore's playlist next week?
	11:26am foofs: Or Venus in Furs!
	11:27am Cecile: How about Argent/3 Dog Night's "Liar"
	♥ 11:27am Kali G: Tricky Dicky from Lorba Linda, ah ha, sounds like ole Mihouse did more in the underground White House bowling alley then just slip and slide with a martini, more like lighting up doobies with his peeps Abbie Hoffman and Tim Leary,… Oh Ya!!!!
	11:28am Chris M.: sorry but i am only playing the actual songs Nixon chose for his #POTUSPlaylist this week.
	11:29am Cecile: hahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahah
	11:29am foofs: It's a very unQuakerish selection for such a devout man...
	11:30am Whooda: Suuper-duuper show DJ Chris M.
	11:30am Chris M.: @Whooda: thank you!
	11:31am Cecile: Nixon had some pretty hip taste.
	11:31am Parq: I think Chris has made himself perfectly clear.
	11:31am Cheri Pi: what foofs said
	♥ 11:32am Kali G: Dick was a very mysterious man in search of a soul, even if it was not his own.
	11:33am KP: Saw them play this the night Nixon resigned
	11:34am briania: The musical taste of RMN was pretty well documented: "When the Fords moved in, Betty Ford found one of the Nixons’ boxes. “It was marked, ‘Tapes, Do Not Touch,’ ... turns out, it was filled with the former president’s Mantovani recordings." (via firstladies.org).
	11:34am Cheri Pi: This one goes out to Stevens T. Mason, never forget that terrible war
	11:34am Joe B: Where even Richard Nixon has got soul.
	♥ 11:35am Kali G: There was once that leaked photo of him crying over the dead student at Kent State, yep, this is all started to make sense now!
	11:35am Joe B: Only Neil Young could put out an 8-CD box set and leave this live version off it
	11:36am Cecile: Neil hates us all.
	♥ 11:38am Ken From Hyde Park: How did the one Simpson's episode go? "On this spot in 1973, Richard Nixon bowled consecutive 300 games."
	♥ 11:38am Kali G: It was rumored that Sammy Davis Jr is the one who turned Dick onto the hip music that the kids protesting were listening to, for he wanted to get into the minds of the next generation that would eventually become Republicans as they aged.
	11:39am P-90: Haldeman's memoir states that "all calls were held and interruptions kept to a minimun" once a week when Dick would watch "Jimmy Duarante Presents The Lennon Sisters" in the Press Lounge.
	11:40am Parq: Kai G, judging from the number of boomers I know who are Repubs, or centrist Democrats who support GOP initiatives, it must have worked.
	♥ 11:40am Stevel: Little known fact. RMN secretly recorded backups for Sympathy for the Devil which were added into the final mix.
	11:41am Richard Nixon: hey what s up? i listened all the WireTappers. they are good.
	11:42am P-90: @Stevel: you might be confusing Dick with Carly Simon on that one.
	♥ 11:42am Kali G: Yes Parq, it was all part of the evil plan that President Dick hatched, the man was actually a genius in ways we are only now understanding,… just wait thill Chris M. shows how the Dick was actually the father of Hip Hop!!!!
	11:43am Cecile: CNN is the Chris M. News Network.
	11:43am northguineahills: @Cheri PI: I'd also love to see Millard Filmore's set.
	♥ 11:43am Stevel: P-90: Damn! that happens all the time.
	11:43am Joe B: ha, great one Cecile!
	11:44am bobdoesthings: I would imagine today.. there are a team of 10-20 youths toiling over the presidential playlist.. and has little to do with the actual politicians likes
	♥ 11:44am common: haha! ngh!
	♥ 11:46am Greg from ZONE 5: Did you have brijet fact check all this information, Chris?
	11:46am foofs: @bobdoesthings Looking at Barack's tasteful playlist, you'd never know he's a juggalo.
	11:46am Cheri Pi: Mr. CP is obsessed with Bohemian Grove... I betcha they listen to some Queen there late at night.
	11:47am Cecile: YEAH
	11:47am Chris M.: @Greg from ZONE 5: citation needed
	11:47am Cheri Pi: NICE
	11:47am Cecile: I'd like to hear Warren Harding's playlist. Probably lots of "hot jazz"
	11:48am Cecile: Hearing Killdozer during election day 2008 was one of the most stirring experiences ever. Seriously.
	11:49am bobdoesthings: @foofs- HAH!
	♥ 11:50am Andrew Waterloo: I can just ole trick Dick putting Je t'aime on the ole real-to-real for a visiting dignitary and then demanding a pause for his favourite part.
	11:51am Cecile: I knew nothing about this Bohemian Grove, and I thought I was fairly OK about history.
	♥ 11:51am Kali G: Makes me wonder just what sounds POTUS Trump has spinning in his ears and echoing inside the empty chamber,… hmmm, perhaps we will have to wait for Chris to let us know in 40 years when he is running FMU as an iron fisted station manager,… the likes that will have Ken spinning in his urn.
	11:53am Cheri Pi: POTUS playlists need to become the next listener challenge. I need some new swag.
	11:53am northguineahills: Grew up next to the Van Zant clan manor. Knew quite a few of the Skynard progeny in HS.
	11:54am Cheri Pi: seriously NGH? you ar my hero for the day, it was Chris M until your revelation.
	11:56am bobdoesthings: whoah.. noon already. Thanks Chris!!
	11:57am northguineahills: Decent, but weird kids (even by my standards).
	♥ 11:57am Kali G: I just wrote something short.
	11:58am Cecile: I can't even imagine growing up in that kind of environment and not turning into a variant of Liza Minelli.
	♥ 11:59am Kali G: Once Chris M's show is done for the week, I plug my ears up with cotton and gum, refusing to listen to anything till next Monday morning, that is just how it is, sorry!
	11:59am Doctor Gonzo: Trump loves Teenage Enema Nurses in Bondage by Killer Pussy
	♥ 11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: How about some SCOTUS playlists at some point? I'll bet Scalia has opera tunes in his.
	12:00pm P-90: Thanks Chris, and My Fellow Americans
	12:02pm Cheri Pi: good job Chris!!
