	♥ 9:01pm melinda: hello evan and friends!
	♥ 9:03pm dale: this sound is so ahead of 1977.
	♥ 9:12pm efd: hi Melinda, hi Dale! Thanks for tuning in!
	9:14pm JakeGould: Hello!
	9:16pm Stevel: Good evening. Glad to be here.
	9:16pm Marc Francis: Totally loving all this Springsteen!!!!
	♥ 9:16pm dale: wham had three or four hits in 1985 yet i've never heard this.
	♥ 9:20pm efd: you play one song that doesn't fit the narrative...
	♥ 9:24pm Figgsrock: Excellent opening block sir.
	♥ 9:25pm efd: Thanks Figgsrock!
	♥ 9:25pm Stevel: Growing up in Colorado I certainly never had the chance to see Suicide back in the day (or since, for that matter.) Love to hear any tales from those who did.
	9:27pm JakeGould: I see what you are doing here with “The Cars.” Bravo! www.reactiongifs.us...
	9:28pm Marc Francis: I make joke. Nebraska was basically an Ode to Suicide...
	♥ 9:29pm Stevel: Awesome.
	9:29pm Marc Francis: I give up. Maybe make colour comments for jokes. Have fun. Bye bye.
	9:42pm JakeGould: @MarcFrancis: Lighten up, Francis.
	♥ 9:50pm melinda: That was a nice tribute set.
	♥ 9:50pm Figgsrock: Wow, haven't heard this Undertones track in years.
	♥ 9:53pm efd: it's a good 'un!
	9:54pm colinfromvictoriabccanada: Always up for some new GBV!
	♥ 9:57pm efd: noted, colin!
	10:03pm P-90: Cruz is such a tool, the Republicans booed him through his speech. The only way to watch is muted, captions, with the efd Show playing. Loud.
	♥ 10:04pm Folsom: efd + Jim the Poet = awesome
	♥ 10:05pm Ken From Hyde Park: WFMU: The most trusted anything anywhere, ever!
	♥ 10:06pm chris_in_space: Evening all! This Mikey Erg reminds me, just a little, of New Jersey's own True Love band. Haven't heard from them in years. Anyone know what happened to them? They were on Belock's show once or twice.
	♥ 10:07pm Folsom: hopefully efd doesn't reference red sox
	♥ 10:09pm efd: you may want to tune out for the first minute or so, Folsom. :)
	10:10pm JakeGould: If Jim doesn’t get this shirt in Cleveland, he should not be considered the most trusted anything anywhere. dudo6el28sqqp.cloudfront.net...
	♥ 10:12pm Folsom: I must admit efd s a really good marathon co-host for Sportsy Talk, I don't know anyone else that could do that well.
	♥ 10:12pm chris_in_space: Sweet! Something off of the latest GbV LP! Love this album so much.
	♥ 10:12pm Stevel: Jake: I approve your message.
	♥ 10:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Yes, this new GBV works great.
	10:17pm Marc15: Live from the Hatefest
	10:21pm Marc15: Cruz got booed
	♥ 10:22pm Ken From Hyde Park: I understand that some guy burned a flag in protest and then lit himself afire. I don't think he was hurt badly. Newt Girngrich speaking now.
	10:24pm Marc15: Newt Gingrich is the most unprincipled scoundrel to ever walk through Washington since Aaron Burr
	♥ 10:24pm dale: didn't his sons shoot an elephant? seems appropriate.
	10:27pm Marc15: The two pillars of the Trump Platform js Hate and Lies
	10:27pm JakeGould: @EFD: Can you ask Jim if he’s seen any grab-ass or hanky pinky there? Asking for a friend.
	10:28pm JakeGould: Ack! “hanky PANKY”
	♥ 10:28pm melinda: hanky pinky, haha
	10:29pm JakeGould: @melinda: Hanky pinky is what happens when a Republican ejaculates in a handkerchief.
	♥ 10:29pm Folsom: @dale The sons did kill a leopard
	10:30pm Marc15: Chris Christie should be in jail
	10:30pm JakeGould: @Folsom: So those guys have penetrated a pussy at least once? going to hell right now*=
	♥ 10:31pm Ken From Hyde Park: They also booed Heidi Cruz out of the building, citing her association with Goldman Sachs.
	♥ 10:32pm Folsom: @JakeGould I know Trump wants to penetrate his daughter.
	10:32pm P-90: The wouldnt do that shit if elephants and leopards shot back. Just sayin.
	10:32pm Marc15: Like "Suzie" from "Seinfeld"
	♥ 10:33pm Ike: "Yes, Meredith McIver Is a Real Person": www.slate.com...
	10:41pm JakeGould: No discernable grab ass. Darn.
	♥ 10:42pm melinda: Thanks Jim & efd, love hearing the WFMU take on the RNC.
	♥ 10:42pm Figgsrock: I wish all political coverage was like that, EFD.
	♥ 10:43pm efd: thanks guys! And thanks for that link, Ike, I'll check it out later.
	10:45pm P-90: Thanks guys, Rachel Maddow and Chris Matthews couldn't have summarized the Cleveland goings-on any better than you just did. And they would never follow it with Bowie.
	♥ 10:47pm Stevel: Jake: I hate to see you so disappointed.
	♥ 10:49pm efd: I was going to ask about that t-shirt but couldn't get back to it. Some shirt though.
	10:53pm JakeGould: Nice piece of shirt! @Stevel: I really don’t care about the mating rituals of Republicans. I only can hope that the strippers, hookers, masseuses and others of the ilk can cash in as much as they can during this week of RNC indulgence.
	10:53pm Loretta: hi Evan!!! I never get tired hearing Bowie..... thanks
	♥ 10:57pm efd: My pleasure, Loretta! Always good to see you here.
	♥ 10:58pm Stevel: Jake: You are a kind and caring person.
	11:02pm JakeGould: If the RNC believes in trickle down economics, they should at least “make it rain” every now and then.
	11:03pm Ignore Function: It's cool that Dalek is still making music. I
	11:07pm Loretta: yeah, I missed the live show for a few weeks; my computer is still 'acting out".
	♥ 11:07pm Stevel: Jake: The imagery is increasingly disturbing.
	11:13pm JakeGould: “I take home the lowest sum I have ever earned for removing my clothes.” gawker.com...
	11:27pm Stevel: Jake: Not at all shocking. Very cool synthy set.
	11:27pm JakeGould: Nice circular playlist thing happening tonight.
	♥ 11:30pm common: good eve evan and all!
	♥ 11:40pm efd: greetings common!
	♥ 11:41pm chris_in_space: Loving the vibe of the show tonight @efd. Seems the Vega set at the beginning set the tone.
	♥ 11:46pm efd: thanks Chris!
	♥ 11:54pm efd: and thanks all of you! I'm out the next couple of weeks so I'll see you on August 10th.
	11:57pm P-90: THANKS EFD! You the man! Enjoy your vacay.
	♥ 11:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, efd. Enjoy your time off.
	11:59pm JakeGould: Thanks EFD!
