	9:30am melinda: I was trying to remember who was responsible for the original and then I remembered an episode of King of the Hill where Chuck Mangione was featured and played that song at someone's memorial service.
	9:31am Sem Chumbo: Hiya, Joe and McGaskos. Haha, feels so good without Chuck. Kinda over-played there for a decade or so.

	9:42am pantz: Funny. My invitation to the party must've been lost in the mail.
	9:43am Marc Francis: Howdy Joe! Howdy all y'all!

	9:45am Bronwyn Bishop: 1972 was a great year for music
	9:46am Joe McG: Hey, Bronwyn! Hey James! Hey everyone!
	9:47am KP: Good Monday, Joe
	9:49am ?: Surface To Air Missive description from the Stones Throw Records webstore: "Southern rock from Tallahassee, Florida. Taylor Ross played all the instruments on this album, breaking bones in a freak accident while flailing arms and head during a drum session. He finished, recording with his neck turned at a 90-degree for weeks on end. Pain killers may have been consumed."
	9:53am JakeGould: Hey Joe!
	9:53am Joe McG: Amazing!
	9:53am Bronwyn Bishop: lizzy! :D
	9:54am Brendan: Sorry for the last incognito (?) comment - posted from desktop instead of the usual phone app
	9:56am Joe McG: You're so mysterious, Brendan!
	9:57am Marc Francis: Yep yep yep yep yep yep yep.
	9:58am Whosondephone: Do you always play this wacky stuff early on Joe?
	10:01am Whosondephone: "Don't put another dime in the jukebox baby. I don't want to hear the song no more."
	10:03am bobdoesthings: I thought that The Flirts '"Telephone" sounded exactly like "Goodbye to you" by Scandal, Patty Smyth
	10:03am Blix: Flirts brought to my mind The Shivvers' fabulous "Teen Line." Style, subject, and vocals more so than musical structure I guess.
	10:05am Brendan: Blondie - Hangin On The Telephone?
	10:06am βrian: My sister, Sally, sells shibboleths and sea shells by the sea shore."
	10:06am Marc Francis: Yes! Link please!!!!
	10:07am Jesse K: Morning Joe! That Flirts, Bobby O style was covered by Nicky: www.discogs.com...
	10:08am Jesse K: Or kind of covered.. not credited exactly
	10:09am Joe McG: @JesseK: Ooh, Nicky looks great! Have to hear that!
	10:12am pantz: I can really aerobacise to this!
	👻 10:12am Liz Berg: Agreed @pantz! Joe, you really need to consider making an aerobics mix!
	10:13am JakeGould: When Robert Palmer sounded like Huey Lewis. It's hip to be square!
	10:14am Joe McG: @Lizb: Great idea! Oh no, ANOTHER premium idea! ;)
	10:15am pantz: Minimize Your Surface Area With Joe McGasko's Surface Noise Aerobics!
	10:17am Joe McG: @pantz: Ha!
	10:19am βrian: Is beer an aerobic mix? Or is it anaerobic?
	10:25am Brendan: Screw aerobics . Lets gets some drinks and Conga this mother
	10:28am Joe McG: @Brendan: Indeed!
	10:29am joe: 'ello folks
	10:30am Brendan: @Joe, Cuban aerobics
	10:36am Bootsie: I actually recently became acquainted with Andrea from The Flirts. She speaks fondly of how much fun she had during their heyday. Nice gal.
	10:36am Benoit: Turns out it's Portron Portron Lopez. Does not rhyme with Voltron Voltron Dope Rez.
	👻 10:37am Brian in UK: Hey Joe. Great to hear Robert Palmer, keyboards were a bit overpowering on the album though. Just heard that Peter Sarstedt has passed away.
	10:38am V Priceless: abowie! 70 yesterday - one year gone tomorrow!
	10:38am pantz: @JoeMCG is this the B-Side to Sound & Vision?
	10:38am Brendan: Lost Weekend = The Passenger (Iggy)
	10:38am Joe McG: @Bootsie: Cool! @Benoit: Oops! I'll fix that later. @Brian: Oh, that's a shame.... @pantz: No, this was a standalone single. It's a promo, so I don't know the b.
	👻 10:39am Brian in UK: Talking of DB you might need a Chrome stick thing to watch this. Is is touching and honest. www.bbc.co.uk...
	10:41am Joe McG: @Benoit: Fixed! :)
	10:42am Joe McG: @Brian: I heard that's a very good doc!
	10:42am Guido from Cologne: The BBC video will work in UK only. But if it is the latest doc. with the last interviews: It will be aired on arte TV to French and german people.
	10:43am Guido from Cologne: next Friday evening, Tracks Night
	10:44am Joe McG: Hopefully we'll get it here evenutally, Guido!
	10:44am Whosondephone: I feel like I'm listening to AM radio.
	10:47am pantz: Howard Phillips could really rock!
	👻 10:47am Brian in UK: Guido I am sure it will circulate the channels in time. The video for Where Are We Now? is still mesmerising.
	10:47am Guido from Cologne: H.P. Lovecraft !
	👻 10:47am Brian in UK: Fever Tree next up!!
	10:51am Carmichael: Heya Joe and surfactants. Survived the weekend monster storm here in NorCal, another one coming tonite.
	10:53am Joe McG: I should've played "Clean Slate" last week for the new year! Well, it still applies. :)
	10:55am Jeff Golick: Hi Joe & Gaskettes. Re watching that Bowie doc. I thank Brian for the link, and can say that US-based types using Chrome can use an extension called Beeb to re-geo-locate. Or something like that. It worked.
	11:01am Brendan: Yes sirree . As some as I finish this here lemonade, Im gonna get up off the porch, mosey down the street and call on that girl and court her, real proper like.
	11:04am pantz: @Brendan Best Andy Griffith episode ever. Was that the one with Don Rickles?
	11:05am annie: oh, a reminder to make an effort to watch "Sex and Broadcasting" if you haven't. it's really good.. and it has no sex.. :-p
	11:05am Emily C: I was just thinking that sounded awfully 'Kinksy'...hi Joe!
	11:06am deep surface: sex and broadcasting is how i found this wonderful place, thank you netflix!
	11:07am annie: i avoided it due to the title.. i'm a prude.. but not
	11:07am deep surface: i love prunes!!!!!
	11:07am Roberto: Prince passed away in April.
	11:08am Mark in Toronto: try April for Prince
	11:08am Brendan: @pantz exactly. Very Mayberryesque song.
	11:09am Rory: What was the solo guitar, finger picking song played around 9:05-9:10 AM this morning please?
	11:09am βrian: I've had S&B in my Netflix queue for quite a while. "Availability Unknown."
	11:10am melinda: @annie: I think there was a different working title before it was Sex and Broadcasting, so I assumed the sex part was just an attention-grabber. I wonder if the book of the same title has sex in it.
	11:12am Bronwyn Bishop: It used to be called Freeform or Death, which imo is better.
	11:12am annie: βrian: i watched it on netflix. wonder why it's unavailable. are you stateside? Melinda: hi!!! (any news from bob?) i agree bronwyn.
	11:13am Bronwyn Bishop: love this song! :D
	11:14am Joe McG: @Rory: That was the Starlights' Sound, I think!
	11:14am Joe McG: Prince passed away in April? Man, am I out of it today. Hi, Emily! :)
	11:14am Jeff Golick: I can confirm that the book SEX AND BROADCASTING contains no sex.
	11:15am pantz: Your show is making me crave a Cuban sandwich and a mojito, @JoeMCG. Guess it's gonna be a short day.
	11:15am βrian: Wisconsin. We have to do DVDs. Second-world connectivity.
	11:15am Andrew Waterloo: But, supposedly the book is the template for WFMU
	11:17am melinda: @Bronwyn: Freeform or Death is more on-point, but maybe Sex and Broadcasting will get it more viewers.
	11:17am melinda: Hi Annie! No word from Bob.
	11:19am Joe McG: I hope Mary Wing will forgive me for stealing her threeplay idea today.
	11:21am Brendan: I cant wait to hear part four of your trio
	11:22am ?: Listening here on a cool evening in Hanoi.. Thanks for turning me on to Bic Runga... :)
	👻 11:22am Ken From Hyde Park: @ Carmichael - Some of the big trees did not make it through the storm. www.sfgate.com...
	11:24am Joe McG: Cool, Hanoi! Thanks for tuning in!
	11:27am Cheri Pi: Good morning funky people
	11:27am Carmichael: Yes Ken, I was worried about all the stately oak trees in my neighborhood. Only lost one. Bigger storm supposedly this evening/tomorrow ...
	11:27am βrian: Hola, Churr Pah!
	👻 11:31am Brian in UK: Here is an early shot of Pioneers Cabin taken by Eadweard Muybridge famous for the first moving pictures. commons.wikimedia.org...
	11:32am Brendan: Steve Austin - a man barely alive . We can rebuild him. Make him stronger, faster, able to boogie more and cruise hot chicks while wearing tight pants and chains
	11:33am Blix: I love that in 1976 you could make a song called "Bionic Boogie" and it would seem quite natural to do so.
	11:36am Mark in Toronto: Steel drums make any song sound better
	11:37am Listener Alexandra: Greetings from Soggy Diego, Joe!
	11:37am βrian: Inagodadavida, baby
	👻 11:38am Brian in UK: Great show, Joe. Got to cut out and get my eyebrows plucked. New image. Steely.
	11:38am Bronwyn Bishop: love this! lotsa gems today joe!
	11:38am Joe McG: I agree, Mark! Hey, Alex--watch your mailbox later this week! @Brian: Go for that arched eyebrow look.
	11:39am pantz: This reminds me of my coke head neighbors in college that would keep me up all night. I would crank up steel drum music and put it on a loop when I left for class in the morning. I bet they had some funky fever dreams.
	11:40am Bronwyn Bishop: A devilish but perfect punishment, pantz
	11:41am Carmichael: Unibrow, Brian!
	11:41am Andrew Waterloo: steels drums almost drive me to same place that salsa does.
	11:44am Joe McG: @Andrew: I hear you!
	👻 11:47am Brian in UK: @Andrew my hero Robert Greenidge. www.youtube.com... @Carmichael, does that mean I would have to start listening to Oasis?
	11:52am Bronwyn Bishop: i love when the funky chicken is referenced in religious testimonials
	11:52am Greg from ZONE 5: HEAVY
	11:53am joe: and i hear this going right into Midnight Cowboy for some reason
	11:53am Dennis Diken: nice show Joe!
	11:53am Bronwyn Bishop: all joking aside though this is an amazing piece
	11:53am Carmichael: Maybe when they say "He's forever", they're referring to Rufus Thomas.
	11:53am joe mulligan: wait isnt this the John barry Midnight cowboy melody?
	11:53am Uncle Michael: He's Midnight Cowboy Forever!
	11:54am Uncle Michael: Joe beat me.
	11:54am Mike Sin: Enjoyed the show very much today, Joe!
	11:54am Joe McG: Thanks, Dennis and Mike! And thanks everyone for listening today. I'm going to try to be a little less out of it next week! :) Have a good one!
	11:55am pantz: Great show, Joe. It's mojito time!
	11:55am mark r: Gatemouth is always cool.
	11:56am Brendan: Clarence never opened the gate on this one.
	11:56am Sem Chumbo: Thank you, Mr. McGasko. Feels so good to be with you and the McGaskos Tuesdays. Later.
	👻 11:56am Brian in UK: It's Martini time over here as Rev Horton Heat might say.
	11:57am pantz: @Brian Eat Steak, while you;'re at it!
	11:58am JakeGould: Adios, Joe!
	11:59am Brendan: Fare thee well, McGasko
	11:59am Listener Alexandra: Will do...no idea what you have planned :-)
	12:00pm Emily C: Aww, goodbye Joe... Until next time!

	11:09am βrian: I've had S&B in my Netflix queue for quite a while. "Availability Unknown."
	11:10am melinda: @annie: I think there was a different working title before it was Sex and Broadcasting, so I assumed the sex part was just an attention-grabber. I wonder if the book of the same title has sex in it.

	11:15am Andrew Waterloo: But, supposedly the book is the template for WFMU

	11:39am pantz: This reminds me of my coke head neighbors in college that would keep me up all night. I would crank up steel drum music and put it on a loop when I left for class in the morning. I bet they had some funky fever dreams.
	11:40am Bronwyn Bishop: A devilish but perfect punishment, pantz
	11:41am Carmichael: Unibrow, Brian!
	11:41am Andrew Waterloo: steels drums almost drive me to same place that salsa does.
