	9:20am Ken From Hyde Park: Happy Festivus!
	9:21am Ike: (Not really rooting for anything to break, just being the chaos-tanic advocate.)
	9:22am People Like Us: isn't this a nice song this is called balanced programming ie something not very good and then something rather nice
	9:23am People Like Us: I really did think it was all broken earlier - the database that I type into froze up shortly after too. I suffered that alone though
	9:23am Jeezy: This Gary Usher is some sort of 60's pop singer? There's barely anything on Spotify!
	9:23am OTB: I wholeheartedly endorse this "balanced programming" concept.
	9:23am Muwa: I DO HAVE TO G..., pardon, I do have to go to Ikea in half hour. Promised my wife. will continue listening in the car
	9:24am People Like Us: yes, enjoy ikea, I love ikea
	9:24am vince: I just finally heard the original version of This Mortal Coil's "I Want To Live" a few days ago!

	9:26am People Like Us: www.garyusher.com
	9:26am People Like Us: no rude words here please.
	9:29am Jeezy: Thanks!
	9:29am Listener Robert: Where DO you want the rude words, Miss Vicki?
	9:29am Rich in Washington: HA! This is wunderbar!
	9:29am Mick: Fabulösen! Ich Mag it too!
	9:30am Laura L: Hallo Vicki! Willkommen!
	9:30am People Like Us: I could make some suggestions
	9:30am Ike: So we can't say "Ikea" here?!
	9:30am vince: Ya!
	9:30am People Like Us: ha ha
	9:30am People Like Us: it must be lovely in ikea today, really calm
	9:30am Muwa: Hereby, I postpone post office visit. Can't leave home now. Stuck listening to balanced programming. So easy to procrastinate when prompted to. Sucks!
	9:31am Muwa: can we still say post office?
	9:31am vince: oy vey!
	9:32am People Like Us: I meant to go to the post office about a month ago
	9:33am Dan B From Upstate: I think Stockholm Syndrome has kicked in for me on the Bob Dylan xmas record. It's lapped itself and hit the point where I genuinely enjoy it.
	9:33am People Like Us: just no being rude about WFMU DJs in here :)
	9:33am vince: Just hearing this is making me have to cough!
	9:34am People Like Us: what do you think Bob Dylan was trying to do here?
	9:34am Rich in Washington: WING!
	9:35am People Like Us: and Wing too, poor Wing - she's retired now you know! And it's all OUR FAULT
	9:35am MD: Good morning all the People like US!!! HAPPY FESTIVUS ALL! TIME TO POLISH UP THE GALVANIZED STEEL POLE!!!
	9:35am vince: WhaaaAAAAAA??
	9:35am Laura L: Speaking of post office, favorite line a postal worker told me she said to her manager: "This is a legitimate issue, I am not having a nervous breakdown!"
	9:35am People Like Us: I love the Bob Dylan record actually I think I do anyway, not sure
	9:36am Ken From Hyde Park: The British term is "post office"? Same as here in the US? Interesting. Lots of words are different, like "truck" vs. "lorry."
	9:36am Murakami Whywolf: O! Vicki, you 're so fine.
	9:36am Rich in Washington: RE: Wing -NO! Really? I did not know that! She's everybody's wonderfully eccentric auntie.
	9:36am Muwa: Nina Hagen? How is she doing
	9:37am Sam: Yay Vicki!
	9:37am People Like Us: yes, it's a post office here too - if you think what a post office originally was then I suppose it's a post and an office er ok sorry what Wing retired, yep
	9:37am People Like Us: yes, how's Nina Hagen? how about other people, how are they?
	9:37am vince: It's sounds a bit like she's singing "Happy New Yea.."
	9:38am vince: DON!
	9:38am cory: YAY!
	9:38am Sam: Lotsa folks are doing great!
	9:38am Rich in Washington: comments are funny. It's like they suddenly update in huge chunks of commentaria at once.
	9:39am vince: Hey, Vicki... Has Wobbley asked YOU to do an "Over The Edge" show yet?
	9:39am Rich in Washington: There is no Don! I really like what Wobbly and others have been doing with the slot.
	9:39am Muwa: Do you have English muffins in England? In Brooklyn they go well with , let me see, Robertson's Mincemeat.
	9:40am blamerhonel: holy moly that wing song was really something special
	9:40am Rich in Washington: and the shows by KRob are really great. I like how he's mashing up episodes.
	9:40am vince: This is my jam, right here
	9:41am Sam: I just had english muffins with raw avocado on them, it was awesome
	9:42am People Like Us: Don :)
	9:42am vince: Is that Darth Vader?
	9:43am Sam: Jesus..... I am your father......
	9:43am Muwa: Mincemeat is not jam, he-he. I am shutting up after this message. So far the morning has been very uplifting. Thank you People Like Us! I haven't listened to you for 3-4 years since my daughter was born, really. And now...
	9:43am vince: should you say , "Son of Sam, I am your father"?
	9:45am People Like Us: anyone having tech probs with the comments board etc freezing?
	9:45am rsj: this is the best, i recently heard "hot for teacher" and it made my day, I'm BYO irony, though glad my daughter didn't ask too many questions
	9:46am vince: only occasionally
	9:47am Rich in Washington: Doesn't seem to be freezing on my end as far as commenting but seems like it updates with large batches of comments at one go.
	9:47am Webhamster Henry: I'm not having trouble with the comments board, but then again, I just woke up.
	9:48am People Like Us: thanks - of course I'm noticing it more - it's freezing up about every 15 mins (so you're getting large batches, yes, because it froze)
	9:49am People Like Us: THIS is my favourite song EVER (moon river)
	9:49am Rich in Washington: Oh I love that broken down calliope! I don't know whether to hug it or call it a doctor.
	9:49am Cheyenne: Moon River is great. I love this version!
	9:49am Sam: I'm having problems with the music - it sounds all weird and out of tune
	9:49am vince: I thought your favorite song was "Uncle Albert"!
	9:50am People Like Us: yes, we're trying to fix that Sam - same - the internet is breaking the music
	9:50am Sam: This damn radio don't work right!
	9:50am People Like Us: yes it is
	9:50am Webhamster Henry: You may like this seasonal treat: www.echonyc.com...

	9:52am vince: this is a nice cover
	9:53am bbell: Happy Christmas!
	9:53am vince: sounds like Dena Snyder
	9:55am vince: I love hearing "Happy Christmas", instead of "Merry Christmas"
	9:55am People Like Us: anyone know who NDW is? The 99 Red Balloons cover
	9:55am Listener Robert: If Bob & Doug McKenzie are to be believed, in England English muffins are called back muffins.
	9:56am Sam: Baby got back muffins
	9:56am vince: Mmmmmm...'back' muffins!
	9:56am vince: It's no "Beatles Christmas Album"
	9:57am People Like Us: well we just call them muffins because we know they are English but did you know our pancakes are different to your pancakes? but of course they are, they're your pancakes
	9:57am -Ken: Hi all - Just testing the comments section here.. Hope I haven't broken the website from the Midwest.. thank you for filling in Vicki!

	9:58am Sam: Hey Ken! Vicki's KILLIN it yo

	9:58am MD: AWFUL =GOOD X LOG10
	9:58am Sam: And in England you take decisions
	9:59am vince: Al-oo-MIN-yum!
	9:59am People Like Us: in England we pronounce "gif" as "gif" and in the US you pronounce it "gif", don't you Ken
	9:59am Muwa: Nucular?
	9:59am Sam: Vicki are you doing seven second delay with Andy tonight?
	9:59am People Like Us: ha ha Sam YES THAT'S RIGHT
	9:59am Listener Robert: Seems to be working, thanks, Ken. Also thanks to whoever got the Flash player to auto-update the now-playing & program data again.
	10:00am Ken From Hyde Park: I'm having GIF anxiety now. I've come to expect crazy GIF images at this point in the week. Maybe I'll hop on the deviantart site or something.

	10:06am sphere: Spike Jones! I set great store by his version of Chloe.
	10:06am dale: this fill in show is a true gift. like a cake filled with nuts and candied fruits and booze-soaked.

	10:31am Rich in Washington: The sun's just come up and now I realized it's snowed last night. My commute should be interesting.
	10:32am Rich in Washington: that's weird! I can see it fine. The links even work. Maybe a region, country thing?
	10:33am People Like Us: how could that be?
	10:33am dale: there was a 60s 70s brit folk music blog called 'time has told me' that went poof a few years ago. miss it dearly

	10:34am vince: there is quite a few things that have regional boundaries
	10:35am People Like Us: I knew videos did, but whole websites?
	10:35am Rich in Washington: weird. Checking random file links and everything works for me.
	10:36am People Like Us: NO FAIR!!!!
	10:36am Rich in Washington: I hadn't been there in quite a while. Glad to see it's still there (for me, anyway).

	10:36am People Like Us: ONLY you
	10:37am Ken From Hyde Park: Ken had that one weird trick to pull up old web sites. It was archive.org, I think. Maybe that would have a copy?

	10:40am People Like Us: Sweet Thunder found sound is all old found cassettes
	10:40am Ken From Hyde Park: This sounds like "A Very Q*Bert Christmas," if such a thing ever existed.
	10:40am People Like Us: yes, you checked in at a high point Melinda
	10:41am fred: Does this link work better? www.sweetthunder.org...
	10:41am Rich in Washington: pleasantly surprised to see everything there. Used to plunder that site quite frequently, then forgot about it when I realized it hadn't been updated with new material in ages. I seem to recall that I couldn't access it for a spell, then, for some reason, it came back.
	10:42am Aaron: Sounds like mr. Magoo sped up
	10:42am People Like Us: yes Fred! That works! www.sweetthunder.org...

	10:45am People Like Us: look forward to looking up Gray Gardens
	10:47am tom: grey gardens
	10:48am fred: I guess someone hacked the site's home page, but left the rest untouched. Sometimes just adding "/index.html" gets you through the hack
	10:48am People Like Us: ha ha yes
	10:48am vince: gotta LOVE little Edie!
	10:48am Nick from Indy: Riverbottom Nightmare Christmas Band - youtu.be...

	10:49am People Like Us: thanks Fred, indeed that must be the case
	10:49am dale: you'll enjoy it vicki - racoons came through the holes in the roof and lived with them in the mansion. they were like miss haversham with better style and wilder dreams living at the end of all the money they inherited.

	11:34am Gerardo: absolutely, Linda!
	11:34am People Like Us: keep your eyes peeled here - peoplelikeus.org stuff coming up with me and WFMU next year
	11:35am Linda Lee: brilliant. thanks!
	11:35am Gerardo: it's a very curious thing about mashing up beatles stuff: you can pick 2 to 4 of their songs, and they match, contrary to the usual path of 1 artist + 1 different artist.
	11:36am People Like Us: yes, the Beatles are a whole universe in themselves
	11:36am smallybiggs: I knew it
	11:36am Linda Lee: @Gerardo ~ suppose that means they don't vary the tempo much .. altogether ..
	11:37am Sam: You. You were working.
	11:37am Lizardner Dave: Billy Ocean was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar. A cocktail bar.
	11:37am Webhamster Henry: I knew the Waitress would show up eventually - she's late for work at the Cocktail bar.
	11:37am #4: Nice one....
	11:38am People Like Us: pop mixes with pop, all of it
	11:38am MenfussMike: there is a HILARIOUS mix up of this song to live KISS concert footage
	11:38am People Like Us: yes, I refrained, Henry
	11:39am OTB: Dave, it's Rick Astley, actually. Equally terrible.
	11:39am People Like Us: got a link, menfussmike?
	11:39am Mick: I've come to expect Svantana... that tells us something.
	11:39am Gerardo: @Linda, yep, kinda XD - maybe that's why they were desperately including newer sounds and approaching musics outside Bach scale in the mid 60s
	11:40am MenfussMike: yes. here is the vid www.youtube.com...
	11:40am Ike: "Never Gonna Give..." needs more harsh noise blasts IMO
	11:40am People Like Us: thanks!
	11:40am oks: cock cock cock tail bar
	11:40am Gerardo: Rickrawked album also rules! Thanx for those wonderful statements, Vicki. Pop mixes with pop, all of it.
	11:41am bobdoesthings: cocktail bar!!! yes!!!
	11:41am dale: so many of those muppet christ songs sound like marge simpson's sisters are singing them.
	11:41am Linda Lee: @Gerardo ~ it saved their careers! :-)
	11:41am Lizardner Dave: Ah, right. Sorry, I drink too much and don't remember things.
	11:41am People Like Us: yes, it's a great album Gerardo
	11:42am Listener142985: Cheers! Love this version.
	11:42am rsj: oh no, back to my JCC jewpuss days, those nasty little creeps!
	11:42am OTB: I wish I could forget those things.
	11:42am rsj: this version is like therapy
	11:42am People Like Us: those who do not remember the past are condemned to retweet it
	11:43am People Like Us: I've spared you half a dozen versions
	11:44am Linda Lee: retweet ~~ brilliant! :-D
	11:44am smallybiggs: They're royalties must be through the roof
	11:44am Webhamster Henry: I thought of some other song that needed this Svantana treatment... but I didn't write it down fast enough.
	11:45am rsj: proof we are stuck in a cultural feedback loop fueled by high tech omniscient marketing pimping our every instinct this is awesome
	11:46am smallybiggs: Their*
	11:46am People Like Us: indeed, it's a big loop and it's great
	11:49am vince: You KNOW what I like!
	11:51am Laura L: Thank you, Vicki--wonderful show, to which I worked the entire time very happily in the giant cubicle of my own making. Happy X and NYs.
	11:52am dale: only thing better than a roller disco is a roller derby
	11:52am Lizardner Dave: I was 13 when this came out and I developed a massive crush on Olivia Newton John.
	11:52am the Master: There you are...a shooting star!
	11:52am cory: thanks for the awesome show today!
	11:52am smallybiggs: This is the theme song to all of my Xanax trips
	11:53am People Like Us: thank you Laura - thanks all for tuning in - have a good week, and may you all enjoy your giant cubicles I've never said that before Happy X, Y and Z
	11:53am People Like Us: ha ha Dale, that's the spirit
	11:53am Gerardo: @ Linda: and installed them as the paradigm they still are. I love Ram On - i've done a chilean spanish version years ago, hope to record it I remember reading once at Ken's show playlist that Xanadu was intended as a Broadway musical. Any info on that, people?
	11:54am Rich in Washington: Xanadu? More like Xana-don't! - Imaginary Gene Shalitt
	11:54am dia: i'm singing aloud in my studio.
	11:54am Rich in Washington: I am weirdly sentimental about that movie. My wife and I recently enjoyed watching it.
	11:54am melinda: Good one Rich!
	11:55am rsj: what a crescendo!
	11:55am tonyb: hope to see you back in monty hall in 2016 (3rd times the charm) : )
	11:55am vince: another great show.... Thanks and HAPPY CRIMBLE, Vicki and PLU-fans!
	11:55am People Like Us: yes, I expect to return to Monty Hall in 2016
	11:56am Rich in Washington: RIAA is incredible.
	11:56am People Like Us: thanks people - thanks Ken, thanks WFMU!!! Long live the radio!
	11:56am bobdoesthings: thanks so much, great show!!
	11:56am Dan B From Upstate: Thanks for the great fill in, Vicki. See you in the spring, hopefully! Happy xmas!
	11:57am Mick: @Gerardo - they did make Xanadu into a Bway show in '007 - ran for about a year, to predictably polarizing reactions.
	11:57am danjoseph: Well that was a completely wild ride...somebody get me a Dramamine!
	11:57am Rich in Washington: Thanks, Vicki! Your shows are always such a treat. I hope your holidays are enjoyable! Cheers!
	11:58am Mick: @People Like Us, Thanks for the fantastic show Vicki!!

	9:21am Ike: (Not really rooting for anything to break, just being the chaos-tanic advocate.)
	9:22am People Like Us: isn't this a nice song this is called balanced programming ie something not very good and then something rather nice
	9:23am People Like Us: I really did think it was all broken earlier - the database that I type into froze up shortly after too. I suffered that alone though
	9:23am Jeezy: This Gary Usher is some sort of 60's pop singer? There's barely anything on Spotify!
	9:23am OTB: I wholeheartedly endorse this "balanced programming" concept.

	9:30am vince: Ya!
	9:30am People Like Us: ha ha
	9:30am People Like Us: it must be lovely in ikea today, really calm
	9:30am Muwa: Hereby, I postpone post office visit. Can't leave home now. Stuck listening to balanced programming. So easy to procrastinate when prompted to. Sucks!
	9:31am Muwa: can we still say post office?
	9:31am vince: oy vey!
	9:32am People Like Us: I meant to go to the post office about a month ago
	9:33am Dan B From Upstate: I think Stockholm Syndrome has kicked in for me on the Bob Dylan xmas record. It's lapped itself and hit the point where I genuinely enjoy it.
	9:33am People Like Us: just no being rude about WFMU DJs in here :)
	9:33am vince: Just hearing this is making me have to cough!
	9:34am People Like Us: what do you think Bob Dylan was trying to do here?
	9:34am Rich in Washington: WING!
	9:35am People Like Us: and Wing too, poor Wing - she's retired now you know! And it's all OUR FAULT
	9:35am MD: Good morning all the People like US!!! HAPPY FESTIVUS ALL! TIME TO POLISH UP THE GALVANIZED STEEL POLE!!!
	9:35am vince: WhaaaAAAAAA??
	9:35am Laura L: Speaking of post office, favorite line a postal worker told me she said to her manager: "This is a legitimate issue, I am not having a nervous breakdown!"
	9:35am People Like Us: I love the Bob Dylan record actually I think I do anyway, not sure
	9:36am Ken From Hyde Park: The British term is "post office"? Same as here in the US? Interesting. Lots of words are different, like "truck" vs. "lorry."
	9:36am Murakami Whywolf: O! Vicki, you 're so fine.
	9:36am Rich in Washington: RE: Wing -NO! Really? I did not know that! She's everybody's wonderfully eccentric auntie.
	9:36am Muwa: Nina Hagen? How is she doing
	9:37am Sam: Yay Vicki!
	9:37am People Like Us: yes, it's a post office here too - if you think what a post office originally was then I suppose it's a post and an office er ok sorry what Wing retired, yep
	9:37am People Like Us: yes, how's Nina Hagen? how about other people, how are they?
	9:37am vince: It's sounds a bit like she's singing "Happy New Yea.."
	9:38am vince: DON!
	9:38am cory: YAY!
	9:38am Sam: Lotsa folks are doing great!
	9:38am Rich in Washington: comments are funny. It's like they suddenly update in huge chunks of commentaria at once.
	9:39am vince: Hey, Vicki... Has Wobbley asked YOU to do an "Over The Edge" show yet?
	9:39am Rich in Washington: There is no Don! I really like what Wobbly and others have been doing with the slot.
	9:39am Muwa: Do you have English muffins in England? In Brooklyn they go well with , let me see, Robertson's Mincemeat.
	9:40am blamerhonel: holy moly that wing song was really something special
	9:40am Rich in Washington: and the shows by KRob are really great. I like how he's mashing up episodes.
	9:40am vince: This is my jam, right here
	9:41am Sam: I just had english muffins with raw avocado on them, it was awesome
	9:42am People Like Us: Don :)
	9:42am vince: Is that Darth Vader?
	9:43am Sam: Jesus..... I am your father......
	9:43am Muwa: Mincemeat is not jam, he-he. I am shutting up after this message. So far the morning has been very uplifting. Thank you People Like Us! I haven't listened to you for 3-4 years since my daughter was born, really. And now...
	9:43am vince: should you say , "Son of Sam, I am your father"?
	9:45am People Like Us: anyone having tech probs with the comments board etc freezing?
	9:45am rsj: this is the best, i recently heard "hot for teacher" and it made my day, I'm BYO irony, though glad my daughter didn't ask too many questions
	9:46am vince: only occasionally
	9:47am Rich in Washington: Doesn't seem to be freezing on my end as far as commenting but seems like it updates with large batches of comments at one go.
	9:47am Webhamster Henry: I'm not having trouble with the comments board, but then again, I just woke up.
	9:48am People Like Us: thanks - of course I'm noticing it more - it's freezing up about every 15 mins (so you're getting large batches, yes, because it froze)
	9:49am People Like Us: THIS is my favourite song EVER (moon river)
	9:49am Rich in Washington: Oh I love that broken down calliope! I don't know whether to hug it or call it a doctor.
	9:49am Cheyenne: Moon River is great. I love this version!
	9:49am Sam: I'm having problems with the music - it sounds all weird and out of tune
	9:49am vince: I thought your favorite song was "Uncle Albert"!
	9:50am People Like Us: yes, we're trying to fix that Sam - same - the internet is breaking the music
	9:50am Sam: This damn radio don't work right!
	9:50am People Like Us: yes it is

	9:56am vince: It's no "Beatles Christmas Album"

	10:29am People Like Us: yes, folk music!
	10:29am Rich in Washington: Love that Sweet Thunder blog. At least the files are still there.

	10:30am Marcel M: Wooaaahhh
	10:30am Rich in Washington: www.sweetthunder.org
	10:31am People Like Us: when I go there I get an inland revenue advert and a new site ad
	10:31am Rich in Washington: The sun's just come up and now I realized it's snowed last night. My commute should be interesting.
	10:32am Rich in Washington: that's weird! I can see it fine. The links even work. Maybe a region, country thing?
	10:33am People Like Us: how could that be?
	10:33am dale: there was a 60s 70s brit folk music blog called 'time has told me' that went poof a few years ago. miss it dearly

	10:34am vince: there is quite a few things that have regional boundaries
	10:35am People Like Us: I knew videos did, but whole websites?
	10:35am Rich in Washington: weird. Checking random file links and everything works for me.
	10:36am People Like Us: NO FAIR!!!!

	10:36am dale: i'm in new york and i get "JT Kemerly Improving Sales Performance and Revenue" at that sweet thunder link
	10:36am People Like Us: ONLY you
	10:37am Ken From Hyde Park: Ken had that one weird trick to pull up old web sites. It was archive.org, I think. Maybe that would have a copy?
	10:37am People Like Us: yes, same as me Dale it's ONLY YOU Rich, it's just for YOU
	10:37am People Like Us: oh yes, Ken, good idea
	10:38am Cheyenne: was it the WAYBACK MACHINE?

	10:40am People Like Us: Sweet Thunder found sound is all old found cassettes

	10:40am People Like Us: yes, you checked in at a high point Melinda
	10:41am fred: Does this link work better? www.sweetthunder.org...
	10:41am Rich in Washington: pleasantly surprised to see everything there. Used to plunder that site quite frequently, then forgot about it when I realized it hadn't been updated with new material in ages. I seem to recall that I couldn't access it for a spell, then, for some reason, it came back.
	10:42am Aaron: Sounds like mr. Magoo sped up
	10:42am People Like Us: yes Fred! That works! www.sweetthunder.org...

	10:44am Nick from Indy: It's a Jaap Blonk Christmas
	10:44am MD: Jerry is his name...

	10:45am People Like Us: look forward to looking up Gray Gardens
	10:47am tom: grey gardens
	10:48am fred: I guess someone hacked the site's home page, but left the rest untouched. Sometimes just adding "/index.html" gets you through the hack
	10:48am People Like Us: ha ha yes
	10:48am vince: gotta LOVE little Edie!
	10:48am Nick from Indy: Riverbottom Nightmare Christmas Band - youtu.be...
	10:48am smallybiggs: Fascinating
	10:49am People Like Us: thanks Fred, indeed that must be the case
	10:49am dale: you'll enjoy it vicki - racoons came through the holes in the roof and lived with them in the mansion. they were like miss haversham with better style and wilder dreams living at the end of all the money they inherited.
	10:50am vince: Don't SPOIL it for her!
	10:54am 3rdAFCrewChief: Good Morning

	11:18am Ken From Hyde Park: I'm just on the fringe of the WMFU transmitter. I lose the signal in places.
	11:18am People Like Us: so who's sitting in some cubicle somewhere?
	11:19am People Like Us: I listen on the wfmu app in the car
	11:19am Michael: raises his hand - I am Vicki. The show is helping immensely.
	11:20am vince: If you can call our small apartment a cubicle

	11:20am People Like Us: as opposed to an Unprofessional Lighting shop
	11:21am OTB: I'm in a cubicle! I am! I am!
	11:21am MD: Sitting is the new Smoking...Us physical people live 10 years longer....on average...

	11:22am bobdoesthings: JEEEEESSSSUUSSSSSSSS

	11:25am People Like Us: yes! Sometime shortly after

	11:25am People Like Us: will be archived at wfmu.org...

	11:31am Linda Lee: something to look forward to, then!
	11:33am Linda Lee: something to look forward to, then :-) this McCartney remix is lovely!
	11:34am Gerardo: absolutely, Linda!
	11:34am People Like Us: keep your eyes peeled here - peoplelikeus.org stuff coming up with me and WFMU next year
	11:35am Linda Lee: brilliant. thanks!
	11:35am Gerardo: it's a very curious thing about mashing up beatles stuff: you can pick 2 to 4 of their songs, and they match, contrary to the usual path of 1 artist + 1 different artist.
	11:36am People Like Us: yes, the Beatles are a whole universe in themselves
	11:36am smallybiggs: I knew it
	11:36am Linda Lee: @Gerardo ~ suppose that means they don't vary the tempo much .. altogether ..
	11:37am Sam: You. You were working.
	11:37am Lizardner Dave: Billy Ocean was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar. A cocktail bar.
	11:37am Webhamster Henry: I knew the Waitress would show up eventually - she's late for work at the Cocktail bar.
	11:37am #4: Nice one....
	11:38am People Like Us: pop mixes with pop, all of it
	11:38am MenfussMike: there is a HILARIOUS mix up of this song to live KISS concert footage
	11:38am People Like Us: yes, I refrained, Henry
	11:39am OTB: Dave, it's Rick Astley, actually. Equally terrible.
	11:39am People Like Us: got a link, menfussmike?
	11:39am Mick: I've come to expect Svantana... that tells us something.
	11:39am Gerardo: @Linda, yep, kinda XD - maybe that's why they were desperately including newer sounds and approaching musics outside Bach scale in the mid 60s
	11:40am MenfussMike: yes. here is the vid www.youtube.com...
	11:40am Ike: "Never Gonna Give..." needs more harsh noise blasts IMO
	11:40am People Like Us: thanks!
	11:40am oks: cock cock cock tail bar
	11:40am Gerardo: Rickrawked album also rules! Thanx for those wonderful statements, Vicki. Pop mixes with pop, all of it.
	11:41am bobdoesthings: cocktail bar!!! yes!!!
	11:41am dale: so many of those muppet christ songs sound like marge simpson's sisters are singing them.
	11:41am Linda Lee: @Gerardo ~ it saved their careers! :-)
	11:41am Lizardner Dave: Ah, right. Sorry, I drink too much and don't remember things.
	11:41am People Like Us: yes, it's a great album Gerardo
	11:42am Listener142985: Cheers! Love this version.
	11:42am rsj: oh no, back to my JCC jewpuss days, those nasty little creeps!
	11:42am OTB: I wish I could forget those things.
	11:42am rsj: this version is like therapy
	11:42am People Like Us: those who do not remember the past are condemned to retweet it
	11:43am People Like Us: I've spared you half a dozen versions
	11:44am Linda Lee: retweet ~~ brilliant! :-D
	11:44am smallybiggs: They're royalties must be through the roof
	11:44am Webhamster Henry: I thought of some other song that needed this Svantana treatment... but I didn't write it down fast enough.
	11:45am rsj: proof we are stuck in a cultural feedback loop fueled by high tech omniscient marketing pimping our every instinct this is awesome
	11:46am smallybiggs: Their*
	11:46am People Like Us: indeed, it's a big loop and it's great
	11:49am vince: You KNOW what I like!
	11:51am Laura L: Thank you, Vicki--wonderful show, to which I worked the entire time very happily in the giant cubicle of my own making. Happy X and NYs.
	11:52am dale: only thing better than a roller disco is a roller derby

	11:52am the Master: There you are...a shooting star!
	11:52am cory: thanks for the awesome show today!
	11:52am smallybiggs: This is the theme song to all of my Xanax trips
	11:53am People Like Us: thank you Laura - thanks all for tuning in - have a good week, and may you all enjoy your giant cubicles I've never said that before Happy X, Y and Z
	11:53am People Like Us: ha ha Dale, that's the spirit
	11:53am Gerardo: @ Linda: and installed them as the paradigm they still are. I love Ram On - i've done a chilean spanish version years ago, hope to record it I remember reading once at Ken's show playlist that Xanadu was intended as a Broadway musical. Any info on that, people?
	11:54am Rich in Washington: Xanadu? More like Xana-don't! - Imaginary Gene Shalitt
	11:54am dia: i'm singing aloud in my studio.
	11:54am Rich in Washington: I am weirdly sentimental about that movie. My wife and I recently enjoyed watching it.
	11:54am melinda: Good one Rich!
	11:55am rsj: what a crescendo!
	11:55am tonyb: hope to see you back in monty hall in 2016 (3rd times the charm) : )
	11:55am vince: another great show.... Thanks and HAPPY CRIMBLE, Vicki and PLU-fans!

	11:56am Dan B From Upstate: Thanks for the great fill in, Vicki. See you in the spring, hopefully! Happy xmas!
	11:57am Mick: @Gerardo - they did make Xanadu into a Bway show in '007 - ran for about a year, to predictably polarizing reactions.
	11:57am danjoseph: Well that was a completely wild ride...somebody get me a Dramamine!
	11:57am Rich in Washington: Thanks, Vicki! Your shows are always such a treat. I hope your holidays are enjoyable! Cheers!
	11:58am Mick: @People Like Us, Thanks for the fantastic show Vicki!!
