	3:42pm Passaic River Blues: I'm partial to anatomy: punim, schnoz, tuchas, etc.
	3:44pm Joe non Papa: Putz. Goyishe shiksa. I had no idea I knew so many Yiddish words. Growing up in Crown Heights did it.
	3:44pm Brian Cat: Mishugana, Shmaltz, which I was told means chicken fat and is a poor descriptor for a sappy song, and then there's Bupkis, mentioned aready, there are so many!
	3:44pm CB2: Just in and dancing in the aisles with our favorite DJ.
	3:45pm Websie: "Putz" was one of the first I knew, thanks to George Burns in THE SUNSHINE BOYS.
	3:45pm Brian Cat: Yiddish question, the three stooges were Jewish. What does Shemp mean? Ask Let's ask the experts!
	3:45pm Joe non Papa: Another good book on Yiddish is called "Born to Kvetch" by Michael Wex. Nice cover photo, too.
	3:46pm Bo Crane: Hello from the Promised Land ! I just schlepped back from the gym and noshed a bissel of salad for lunch. I could kvetsch about the weather or give you a spiel about the humidity today but I don't want to sound like a shlimazel. Mazel Tov from your Miami music maven.
	3:48pm Monica: BO CRANE in da house!!!!
	3:48pm BronwynB: i have pearl williams on vinyl. she's great
	3:48pm Listener Gary: oy vey...yenta...mishagas...schmutz and the phrase"Piss in your hand and throw it on the wall"...which I have forgotton.
	3:48pm listener james from westwood: @Joe, is that the same guy who wrote "Save the Deli!"?
	3:49pm BronwynB: I LOVE DISCO
	3:49pm northguineahills: Before I moved to Brooklyn, I barely knew any Yiddish, I just moved out after 16 years, and now I have quite the Yiddish vocabulary. No one here in Florigia know what I'm talking about when I throw terms around that in NYC are understood by everyone.
	3:49pm CB1: One of my fave disco hits - Sentimentally it's you MO!
	3:50pm DJ Robert Drake: This track brings back fond memories of early mornings at The Saint
	3:50pm βrian: Or as our knucklehead governor said, when hoisting his glass: "Molotov!"
	3:50pm Joe non Papa: @James, I have no idea.
	3:50pm Mark R: It's all Studio 54 in here. I feel snorting a bunch of coke and riding a horse indoors.
	3:51pm Rob Kopp: In the 60's he was called Theo van Es and singer of the Nederbeat-group The Shoes
	3:51pm frenchee: @Mark R: DO IT! (in a spangled leotard)
	3:51pm Itzall Ablurr: Apparently Haji's "Go-Going" goes perfectly with every song ever made. Nice set, btw. The music, I mean.
	3:51pm Monica: CB DOS!!!! ....
	3:52pm Joe non Papa: @northguineahills, I was in a store in Omaha when I made some comments about all the "tchotchkes" they had. They looked at me dumbly.
	3:52pm Mark R: what else would I be wearing?
	3:53pm Mark R: I'm not asking for wardrobe suggestions, I meant "Of course I'd be wearing a spangled leotard."
	3:53pm frenchee: rhetorical question? Cuz I think a nice headdress would be the thing.
	3:54pm Monica: hi, DJ ROBERT DRAKE!!!.... and northguineahills...and brian...and Itzall Ablurr.... thx all for the great yiddish faves!!!!
	3:54pm Mark R: But I just got a perfect feathered haircut and I want to show it off.
	3:56pm frenchee: hmm.Problem. Then I'd recommend something by Halston. sparkles in the feathered hair tho.
	3:56pm Itzall Ablurr: Mark R- the future will be thick with feathered/layered hair (and clean shaven chins), just the minute the current Brown-shirt-with-hillbilly-beard phase finally dies.
	3:57pm chris: <3 <3 <3
	3:57pm Rob Kopp: funny Ramones cover; didn't know she had done this
	3:57pm Mark R: I could do the sparkles. Now THIS is bed music--Sheena on steel drums!
	3:58pm frenchee: Ms. Turntables No. 1 looks like Dolores del Rio but it isn't.
	3:58pm Brian Cat: It's almost got a Calypso feel to it.
	3:59pm andrewb: for all the protopunk hooplah the ramones were really a very melodic band.
	4:00pm melinda: @andrewb indeed.
	4:01pm Chris J: shvitz!
	4:01pm MenfussMike: The Shoes opened for KISS back in the day I believe
	4:02pm Uncle Michael: Did I miss mention that Shoes (no "the") are from Zion Illinois?
	4:03pm steve: i say oy gevalt pretty regularly
	4:03pm Brian Cat: I think he was talking about a different Shoes. The American Shoes have no The before the name.
	4:03pm steve: ive managed to get some non jews saying it
	4:05pm DJ Robert Drake: I love your laugh and miss it on the radio! So perfect to have you today to help us ease into the weekend
	👻 4:05pm doctorjazz: My mom used to like to say, "Meh kennish tanzin of tzvei chasunas mit eine tuchous", which translates to, "you can't dance at 2 weddings with 1 ass". Always liked that one...
	4:08pm Itzall Ablurr: From very, very old "Mad" comics (not yet Magazine); גנבֿ (Ganef). Took me forever to find out what it meant.
	4:08pm Parq: I often use hocking (also spelled hoching), as in, please stop hocking me about that wrong turn I made last week. Background here. en.wikipedia.org...
	4:08pm Rob Kopp: The Shoes was a Dutch band from Zoeterwoude, about 10 miles from where I live. In the 60's Theo van Es had a very negroide voice. They had several Dutch hits, like Na na na and Farewell in the rain.
	4:08pm Monica: indeed, andrewb... what melinda said:)... MenfussMike....UM... maybe there were multiple Shoes?...
	4:11pm melinda: @Parq there's a show on my local radio station called Hukkin (hocking) a Chainek, the meaning of which always eluded me until I heard a discussion of the etymology on a recent Maron podcast.
	4:14pm Brian Cat: Nara Leao sounds a lot like Astrud G.
	4:15pm Mike tp: Monica!how nice!and fine Supremes!!
	4:15pm Lixiviated Life: 1970
	4:17pm geezerette: Rochelle Hudson?

	4:23pm Steve L: Great summer feel today!
	4:25pm Guido from Cologne: Love that old Kleenex song. Where did I hear it first?
	4:26pm Brian Cat: Kleenex aka Lilliput is the best female punk band ever to grace this world!
	4:27pm Cecile: hi, tuning in late, but glad to catch Monica!
	4:29pm Carmichael: Heya Monica, long time no hear from.

	4:39pm Lou: wife used that last night
	4:40pm Steve F: 3 generations of my family listening here, loving every tune!
	4:41pm Listener Gary: Archie Blier, yes, and he was married to Janet of the group.
	4:42pm JimB: Monica: Pleasepleaseplease co-host with Sheila next marathon! Name your own pledge amount!

	4:44pm Moki-momo-san: I am in dreamland right now after a serious discussion with Bosco over a Budda Bone.
	4:44pm zm: oooh Moniee, I can't bear the thought I don't know what would do when / if Joni checks out this planet...
	4:46pm Monica: JimB - let's work on that!.... Baby Moki-momo-san, baby girlxo... hear she's doing well, zm.
	4:49pm Gaylord Fields: @JimB @Monica: Eff that ess! I'm gonna start a bidding war for Monica's co-hosting services! And like Beverly Jones, I'll cut you dead if you step in my way!
	4:51pm Monica: oh, gaylord... Love ya!!!!
	4:51pm CB1: This Wame Ignini Kamu piece sounds like some auctions I've been to.
	4:52pm Gaylord Fields: Love ya back, Monica!
	4:54pm JimB: Technically speaking, Gaylord. since Monica doesn't have a show now, there's no reason she couldn't co-host twice like all the other DJs.
	4:55pm CB1: I don't know how things work over there at FMU, but there are many of us who would love to hear Monica.
	4:56pm northguineahills: If anyone can make it happen, it's Gaylord!
	4:57pm northguineahills: oh, loverly R&S tune...
	4:58pm chris: CB1, until such a time as the universe provides for Monica's return to the fmu schedule, here is her archive page, chock full of years of awesome - wfmu.org...
	4:58pm Monica: you guys are the bestest!
	4:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: There's your "More cowbell"!
	5:00pm northguineahills: more mooooo!

	5:04pm Michael 98145: or, 'Trenton Makes and the World Takes' :)
	5:04pm βrian: Michigan coast, then.
	5:04pm chris: the original task rabbit
	5:05pm Michael 98145: they couldn't turn off their FMU stream by themselves
	5:05pm βrian: @chris: Isn't that a vibrator?
	5:05pm Mark R: Ah, yes, Chicago--I could see (or hear) that.
	5:06pm Gaylord Fields: @JimB: That would mean sharing her, and like another JB once said, I'm a greedy man.
	5:06pm Mark R: That's a different rabbit altogether, Brian--the inventor of which should have received the Nobel Prize.
	5:07pm chris: i like the way you think, βrian
	5:08pm Brian Cat: Don Juan's Reckless Daughter.
	5:10pm Monica: thx, tome!!!... gaylord, there's a gluten-free doughnut in this for you:)...brian cat - yes!!
	5:13pm JimB: Bring in a few sister jocks, add a little wine and you will hear pure Chicago emerge. Don't believe me, check the archives. Gaylord, see your mouse and raise you a house.
	👻 5:21pm SheWolf: Oh my holy gosh darn I am enjoying this Monica.
	5:27pm Monica: mwah! mizz s'wolf!
	5:27pm Carmichael: I thought that voice sounded familiar ...
	5:36pm Monica: yo, carmichael!
	5:38pm Brian Cat: Lovely Soul track, Mon. I don't get to hear much newer Soul. That music is so disposable it just hits the charts then is instantly obsolete. Thankfully Trouble and Sheila play great Soul.
	5:39pm zm: niko case?
	5:40pm Monica: the judds, zm!.... right on with the right on, brian...
	5:41pm melinda: This Judds is really nice.

	5:47pm chris: or shitheel... she sounds pissed.
	5:47pm Michael 98145: oh, La India !!
	5:48pm Rob Kopp: Anyone who liked that tango as much as I did should have a look at this: www.youtube.com... I've hardly seen a singer with so much expression as Lola Flores
	5:50pm Michael 98145: Ooh, nice one, Rob K
	5:50pm Monica: Yes, Michael - La India!... chris, could be!... thx so much, brian cat.. will chik, rob!
	5:51pm alanj: I've just loved all of this music, top to bottom.
	5:52pm CB1: We, Mo, you did it again! But then again, that's no surprise. Thanks for the lovely afternoon.
	5:52pm P-90: Bells are Ringing!
	5:52pm Guido from Cologne: all very nice! enjoyed muchly! thanks monica!
	5:53pm listener james from westwood: Holy crap, they mentioned Swifty Lazar!

	3:24pm Michele: I love this track! Hi Monica!
	3:24pm Parq: Frenchee, got digital in the living room, analog in the bedroom. About a 40 second lag. Like walking back and forth across a time warp.

	3:42pm Passaic River Blues: I'm partial to anatomy: punim, schnoz, tuchas, etc.
	3:44pm Joe non Papa: Putz. Goyishe shiksa. I had no idea I knew so many Yiddish words. Growing up in Crown Heights did it.
	3:44pm Brian Cat: Mishugana, Shmaltz, which I was told means chicken fat and is a poor descriptor for a sappy song, and then there's Bupkis, mentioned aready, there are so many!
	3:44pm CB2: Just in and dancing in the aisles with our favorite DJ.
	3:45pm Websie: "Putz" was one of the first I knew, thanks to George Burns in THE SUNSHINE BOYS.
	3:45pm Brian Cat: Yiddish question, the three stooges were Jewish. What does Shemp mean? Ask Let's ask the experts!
	3:45pm Joe non Papa: Another good book on Yiddish is called "Born to Kvetch" by Michael Wex. Nice cover photo, too.
	3:46pm Bo Crane: Hello from the Promised Land ! I just schlepped back from the gym and noshed a bissel of salad for lunch. I could kvetsch about the weather or give you a spiel about the humidity today but I don't want to sound like a shlimazel. Mazel Tov from your Miami music maven.
	3:48pm Monica: BO CRANE in da house!!!!
	3:48pm BronwynB: i have pearl williams on vinyl. she's great
	3:48pm Listener Gary: oy vey...yenta...mishagas...schmutz and the phrase"Piss in your hand and throw it on the wall"...which I have forgotton.
	3:48pm listener james from westwood: @Joe, is that the same guy who wrote "Save the Deli!"?
	3:49pm BronwynB: I LOVE DISCO
	3:49pm northguineahills: Before I moved to Brooklyn, I barely knew any Yiddish, I just moved out after 16 years, and now I have quite the Yiddish vocabulary. No one here in Florigia know what I'm talking about when I throw terms around that in NYC are understood by everyone.
	3:49pm CB1: One of my fave disco hits - Sentimentally it's you MO!
	3:50pm DJ Robert Drake: This track brings back fond memories of early mornings at The Saint
	3:50pm βrian: Or as our knucklehead governor said, when hoisting his glass: "Molotov!"
	3:50pm Joe non Papa: @James, I have no idea.
	3:50pm Mark R: It's all Studio 54 in here. I feel snorting a bunch of coke and riding a horse indoors.
	3:51pm Rob Kopp: In the 60's he was called Theo van Es and singer of the Nederbeat-group The Shoes
	3:51pm frenchee: @Mark R: DO IT! (in a spangled leotard)
	3:51pm Itzall Ablurr: Apparently Haji's "Go-Going" goes perfectly with every song ever made. Nice set, btw. The music, I mean.
	3:51pm Monica: CB DOS!!!! ....
	3:52pm Joe non Papa: @northguineahills, I was in a store in Omaha when I made some comments about all the "tchotchkes" they had. They looked at me dumbly.
	3:52pm Mark R: what else would I be wearing?
	3:53pm Mark R: I'm not asking for wardrobe suggestions, I meant "Of course I'd be wearing a spangled leotard."
	3:53pm frenchee: rhetorical question? Cuz I think a nice headdress would be the thing.
	3:54pm Monica: hi, DJ ROBERT DRAKE!!!.... and northguineahills...and brian...and Itzall Ablurr.... thx all for the great yiddish faves!!!!
	3:54pm Mark R: But I just got a perfect feathered haircut and I want to show it off.
	3:56pm frenchee: hmm.Problem. Then I'd recommend something by Halston. sparkles in the feathered hair tho.
	3:56pm Itzall Ablurr: Mark R- the future will be thick with feathered/layered hair (and clean shaven chins), just the minute the current Brown-shirt-with-hillbilly-beard phase finally dies.
	3:57pm chris: <3 <3 <3
	3:57pm Rob Kopp: funny Ramones cover; didn't know she had done this
	3:57pm Mark R: I could do the sparkles. Now THIS is bed music--Sheena on steel drums!
	3:58pm frenchee: Ms. Turntables No. 1 looks like Dolores del Rio but it isn't.
	3:58pm Brian Cat: It's almost got a Calypso feel to it.
	3:59pm andrewb: for all the protopunk hooplah the ramones were really a very melodic band.
	4:00pm melinda: @andrewb indeed.
	4:01pm Chris J: shvitz!
	4:01pm MenfussMike: The Shoes opened for KISS back in the day I believe
	4:02pm Uncle Michael: Did I miss mention that Shoes (no "the") are from Zion Illinois?
	4:03pm steve: i say oy gevalt pretty regularly
	4:03pm Brian Cat: I think he was talking about a different Shoes. The American Shoes have no The before the name.
	4:03pm steve: ive managed to get some non jews saying it
	4:05pm DJ Robert Drake: I love your laugh and miss it on the radio! So perfect to have you today to help us ease into the weekend
	👻 4:05pm doctorjazz: My mom used to like to say, "Meh kennish tanzin of tzvei chasunas mit eine tuchous", which translates to, "you can't dance at 2 weddings with 1 ass". Always liked that one...
	4:08pm Itzall Ablurr: From very, very old "Mad" comics (not yet Magazine); גנבֿ (Ganef). Took me forever to find out what it meant.
	4:08pm Parq: I often use hocking (also spelled hoching), as in, please stop hocking me about that wrong turn I made last week. Background here. en.wikipedia.org...
	4:08pm Rob Kopp: The Shoes was a Dutch band from Zoeterwoude, about 10 miles from where I live. In the 60's Theo van Es had a very negroide voice. They had several Dutch hits, like Na na na and Farewell in the rain.
	4:08pm Monica: indeed, andrewb... what melinda said:)... MenfussMike....UM... maybe there were multiple Shoes?...
	4:11pm melinda: @Parq there's a show on my local radio station called Hukkin (hocking) a Chainek, the meaning of which always eluded me until I heard a discussion of the etymology on a recent Maron podcast.
	4:14pm Brian Cat: Nara Leao sounds a lot like Astrud G.
	4:15pm Mike tp: Monica!how nice!and fine Supremes!!

	4:25pm Guido from Cologne: Love that old Kleenex song. Where did I hear it first?
	4:26pm Brian Cat: Kleenex aka Lilliput is the best female punk band ever to grace this world!
	4:27pm Cecile: hi, tuning in late, but glad to catch Monica!

	4:46pm Monica: JimB - let's work on that!.... Baby Moki-momo-san, baby girlxo... hear she's doing well, zm.
	4:49pm Gaylord Fields: @JimB @Monica: Eff that ess! I'm gonna start a bidding war for Monica's co-hosting services! And like Beverly Jones, I'll cut you dead if you step in my way!
	4:51pm Monica: oh, gaylord... Love ya!!!!
	4:51pm CB1: This Wame Ignini Kamu piece sounds like some auctions I've been to.
	4:52pm Gaylord Fields: Love ya back, Monica!
	4:54pm JimB: Technically speaking, Gaylord. since Monica doesn't have a show now, there's no reason she couldn't co-host twice like all the other DJs.
	4:55pm CB1: I don't know how things work over there at FMU, but there are many of us who would love to hear Monica.
	4:56pm northguineahills: If anyone can make it happen, it's Gaylord!
	4:57pm northguineahills: oh, loverly R&S tune...
	4:58pm chris: CB1, until such a time as the universe provides for Monica's return to the fmu schedule, here is her archive page, chock full of years of awesome - wfmu.org...
	4:58pm Monica: you guys are the bestest!
	4:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: There's your "More cowbell"!

	5:04pm Michael 98145: or, 'Trenton Makes and the World Takes' :)
	5:04pm βrian: Michigan coast, then.
	5:04pm chris: the original task rabbit
	5:05pm Michael 98145: they couldn't turn off their FMU stream by themselves
	5:05pm βrian: @chris: Isn't that a vibrator?
	5:05pm Mark R: Ah, yes, Chicago--I could see (or hear) that.
	5:06pm Gaylord Fields: @JimB: That would mean sharing her, and like another JB once said, I'm a greedy man.
	5:06pm Mark R: That's a different rabbit altogether, Brian--the inventor of which should have received the Nobel Prize.
	5:07pm chris: i like the way you think, βrian
	5:08pm Brian Cat: Don Juan's Reckless Daughter.
	5:10pm Monica: thx, tome!!!... gaylord, there's a gluten-free doughnut in this for you:)...brian cat - yes!!
	5:13pm JimB: Bring in a few sister jocks, add a little wine and you will hear pure Chicago emerge. Don't believe me, check the archives. Gaylord, see your mouse and raise you a house.
	👻 5:21pm SheWolf: Oh my holy gosh darn I am enjoying this Monica.
	5:27pm Monica: mwah! mizz s'wolf!
	5:27pm Carmichael: I thought that voice sounded familiar ...
	5:36pm Monica: yo, carmichael!
	5:38pm Brian Cat: Lovely Soul track, Mon. I don't get to hear much newer Soul. That music is so disposable it just hits the charts then is instantly obsolete. Thankfully Trouble and Sheila play great Soul.
	5:39pm zm: niko case?
	5:40pm Monica: the judds, zm!.... right on with the right on, brian...
	5:41pm melinda: This Judds is really nice.

	5:47pm Brian Cat: Great to listen to you, Monica. Great stuff. You definitely made me smile a lot. Your Jazz/ American songbook picks are all amazing performances. Hope to catch you again. Thanks and Happy Weekend to all.
	5:47pm chris: or shitheel... she sounds pissed.
	5:47pm Michael 98145: oh, La India !!
	5:48pm Rob Kopp: Anyone who liked that tango as much as I did should have a look at this: www.youtube.com... I've hardly seen a singer with so much expression as Lola Flores
	5:50pm Michael 98145: Ooh, nice one, Rob K
	5:50pm Monica: Yes, Michael - La India!... chris, could be!... thx so much, brian cat.. will chik, rob!
	5:51pm alanj: I've just loved all of this music, top to bottom.
	5:52pm CB1: We, Mo, you did it again! But then again, that's no surprise. Thanks for the lovely afternoon.
