	9:47am queems: i can't wait to get my t shirts and also my sweet tomato sticker

	♥ 10:00am Passaic River Blues: Thumbs up for Naheed Akhtar! Really wish this wasn't a vinyl-only release.
	♥ 10:03am steveo: great akhtar!
	♥ 10:04am Adrian in London: Hello Trouble and Michelle. I've gone all colourful today and am wearing a grey top long with the usual black outfit.
	10:05am bobdoesthings: skeptech 1 was amazing! watch the first one here: vimeo.com...
	10:08am Davee: I have no friends
	10:11am Itzall Ablurr: I just cancelled Hulu+ and Filmstruck ($10 apiece, monthly) to push that money over to the F'mu.
	♥ 10:11am burrrrrr: I see the monthly pledge like a subscription, $10/month is totally reasonable compared to music subscription services out there.
	♥ 10:11am steveo: @itzall, same, but @nytimes (they still get my crossword money though)
	♥ 10:12am Michele: @burrrrrr Very true!!!
	♥ 10:12am Passaic River Blues: @Davee: hahaha I had the same thought about myself.
	♥ 10:12am Michele: Thanks for that @itzall !
	10:14am Itzall Ablurr: De nada, Michéle. Logical. I enjoy WFMU EVERY DAY. Some of those streaming channels I let sit idle for days/weeks on end- why pay them?
	♥ 10:14am Webhamster Henry: That's right - why Spotify when you can WFMUify?
	♥ 10:15am steveo: some really great new releases this week, Trouble
	10:17am jesstowery: This song takes me back.
	♥ 10:17am Michele: Loving this track!
	10:18am glenn: not only does it take you back, it gets you drunk and holds your hair while you puke in the toilet,
	♥ 10:19am steveo: just got really nostalgic for the record player we had as a kid (why did this happen now and not last week I cannot say)
	♥ 10:20am steveo: they said "shit" in greased lightening and NOTHING BAD HAPPENED
	♥ 10:21am steveo: (the nightengales made me spell it that way)
	10:25am autumnyo2: Can someone tell me what the "listener number" is on the donation page? I keep trying to fill it out butttttt guess I"m putting the wrong thing in it?
	♥ 10:25am melinda: I rotate my online movie service subscriptions to make way for FMU, too.
	♥ 10:26am steveo: listener # is in your profile settings under "private info"
	10:26am BronwynB: good morning trouble and everyone!!
	♥ 10:26am Michele: @autumnyo2 Listener # is not required to pledge so don't worry about that and just continue the process. Let me know if you have any trouble.
	♥ 10:29am -Ken: Is anybody needing a heart or radio icon who doesn't have one? The radio icon is supposed to appear if you are a monthly swag for lifer, and the heart icon is supposed to appear if you've made a one-time pledge since October 2. Let me know if anybody's are missing.
	10:29am autumnyo2: Ah, danke! got it figured out! :)
	♥ 10:30am -Ken: @autimnyo2 - The listener number field is not required - just skip over it. If it is requiring it, please email me the details of what device and OS and browser you are on: ken at wfmu dot org
	♥ 10:32am ChrisB.: Ken, what is the icon for folks who have increased their SFL pledge?
	10:41am Itzall Ablurr: I did not know that Clay Pidgeon was a hired gun, but he is worth more than whatever he is being paid (unless it's a "livable wage" for NJ, in which case that's probably fair). In my opinion.
	10:42am Listener Robert: See, good you mentioned that, Trouble. I knew youse guys did the station's laundry, and I knew you don't stock disposable towels or a liquid soap dispenser, but I never knew until now that YOU TAKE THE LAUNDRY HOME! I'd assumed there was a washer & dryer there.
	10:42am samer: music for the people
	♥ 10:43am ChrisB.: I am rather astonished to hear the less than 10% of regular FMU listeners actually contribute to the station. Really???
	♥ 10:44am Michele: @ChrisB - It's true! I'm always shocked by that stat as well...
	10:44am Listener142985: ''What the hell are you listening to?'' is how mainstream dudes express their healthy curiosity without feeling too vulnerable. Yr welc.
	10:47am Paul In Bloomfield: I heard this years ago and never knew what it was! Thanks!
	♥ 10:47am Trouble: thanks for that insight to the average man @142985. priceless!
	10:48am Fashion Tashjian: Bari luys (good morning) from Yerevan! Sup fmuyers.
	♥ 10:49am Planet Tyler: Oooo just clicked into the comments board - great artwork!
	♥ 10:49am Trouble: wowowowowowow! good morning armenia!
	10:54am Fashion Tashjian: @Trouble good evening, actually, here...) We are 8 hours in the future from JC.))
	♥ 10:55am mcally: First time poster here! Hi everyone!
	♥ 10:55am Michele: Welcome @mcally!
	10:56am Mark R: A great DJ knows when it's time to get a Thursday morning dance party going with some Lebanese disco! (I know some of you haven't been to bed yet, so don't even...)
	10:58am Itzall Ablurr: If that's not a Floor Banger I'll eat my cliche.
	♥ 10:59am mcally: @michele thank u!
	♥ 11:02am Planet Tyler: Hi @mcally!
	11:02am wittsend: a sorcerer has ensorcelled me; ensorcell him with the sorcery with which he ensorcelled me
	11:03am Mark R: Radio voices are for squares.
	♥ 11:03am Adrian in London: Wow, this radio voice: it's like I'm listening to the BBC World Service…
	11:04am samer: Michelle's radio voice is #goals
	11:05am peter: Ohh but that radio giggle!!!
	11:06am samer: wouldn't I be. William. Bill. Billy.
	11:06am Fashion Tashjian: Michelle on the air! Sup Michelle?
	♥ 11:07am BennettCap: I love Trouble's natural radio voice. No improvement necessary.
	11:07am Bill W: "Willie" is the one I always rejected. Didn't Ryan O'Neal play hockey for Harvard in LOVE STORY?
	♥ 11:09am Michele: What's up @Fashion Tashjian !!!
	11:09am karen eliot: Well said! Love you both!
	♥ 11:10am DonJuanTijuana: Trouble, raffle off a date with Michelle & watch the $ donations go up!
	11:11am Fashion Tashjian: @Michelle I haven't heard SUW in years because it's on at 2am here and miss y'all.
	♥ 11:12am Michele: @Fashion Tashjian: Tune in on the archive! It's been really fun lately... Love being a part of WFMU
	♥ 11:14am Michele: Let's get those Swag for Life pledges coming in before the end of the show! To all of you who have donated THANK YOU!
	♥ 11:15am Trouble: michelle is priceless! no raffle can match her supreme-ness.
	11:15am Serge: You guys convinced me to pledge, : ( but my wallets in the car and I can’t get to it till my lunch break : (
	11:16am Listener142985: Yr welc, Troubz. Always happy to mansplain.
	♥ 11:16am Michele: Gonna hold you to it @Serge! ;)
	11:16am emily: signing in late. love the artwork!
	♥ 11:20am Trouble: bonojur, emily
	♥ 11:22am Michele: Seeing many Swag for Life Boomboxes! Very cool, thanks for the support everyone!
	♥ 11:23am BennettCap: Kinda weird to hear Gloria Jones, think of Marc Bolan's tragic death, then Hit and Run comes on.
	♥ 11:23am Michele: Hi Bennett!
	♥ 11:27am stalvey: this is a test...
	♥ 11:27am BennettCap: Hi Michele! I pledged yesterday. Soon my
	♥ 11:28am Passaic River Blues: Man, this is sublime.
	♥ 11:29am Ken From Hyde Park: Bewitching, isn't it?
	11:29am bobdoesthings: so many pants!
	11:29am queems: pantload indeed
	♥ 11:34am stalvey: fill every pant! where does 90% figure come from? pretty discouraging
	♥ 11:35am Dave from Summit: Hard to believe that only 10% of listeners donate...Sad Very sad.
	11:36am wittsend: This european song pairs well with some afternoon exercises in American social life. For this, train the upper lip by this method: 1) Stretch the upper lip down over the teeth. Say "Mo-o-o-o." 2) Hold the lip between the teeth and "smile" 3) Purse the lips, pull them downward and grin. 4) Let the lower jaw fall and try to touch your nose with your upper lip. Whatever the formula, nothing can be more tiresome than the tireless, cheerless pursuit of the "American Dream"
	♥ 11:41am Ken From Hyde Park: Happy to see the Trouble/Michel combo. I only met one Woof-Mooer at Sheep & Wool last weekend, a woman named Jill. I did get a couple comments about my snazzy new SUW t-shirt and I responded "Tune in at 6PM each Friday"
	♥ 11:44am Ken From Hyde Park: ^ (Michele)
	♥ 11:45am Michele: Hi @Ken From Hyde Park! Glad to hear it about the shirt, thanks for coming out and for supporting WFMU!
	♥ 11:46am Planet Tyler: Ok, i got my friend and my brother to donate yay!!
	11:47am Itzall Ablurr: Tender Buttons is a sublime Lp.
	♥ 11:48am Michele: @Planet Tyler that's what I like to hear! Good job!
	♥ 11:51am steveo: Do your students know you're on the radio?
	11:55am bobdoesthings: Thanks Trouble & Michelle! great show!
	♥ 11:56am Trouble: yes steveo: they do
	11:56am B/wad: "TROUBLE SHOOT" no pun intended lol....
	♥ 11:56am Trouble: ken from hyde park: couldn't get close to the souvenir tent, crazy lines!!! was the jill woman a yarn vendor perhaps?
	♥ 11:57am steveo: cool; i can imagine it'd be hard not to tell them....
	11:57am B/wad: Ken, which Hyde Park is it that you're listening from?
	11:57am Fred: Thanks for playing "I'm Ready!" Love your show!!
	11:58am CeeDubbles: I was wearing my 'custom' SUW BiFacial shirt the other night, flashed the Great Gaylord, he even took out his earbuds to comment
	♥ 11:58am Ken From Hyde Park: @Trouble - Lines were indeed long. I have no info on Jill, other than she recognized my t-shirt. @B/wad - Hyde Park, NY, upriver from the WFMU studios.
	♥ 11:59am Passaic River Blues: Trouble's still the number one champeen! Thank you.
	♥ 12:00pm steveo: fun show -- thank you (I pledged to this show on Oct 2 [possibly before the official start of the maratho]... I hope it got into your total!)

	♥ 10:11am burrrrrr: I see the monthly pledge like a subscription, $10/month is totally reasonable compared to music subscription services out there.
	♥ 10:11am steveo: @itzall, same, but @nytimes (they still get my crossword money though)
	♥ 10:12am Michele: @burrrrrr Very true!!!
	♥ 10:12am Passaic River Blues: @Davee: hahaha I had the same thought about myself.
	♥ 10:12am Michele: Thanks for that @itzall !
	10:14am Itzall Ablurr: De nada, Michéle. Logical. I enjoy WFMU EVERY DAY. Some of those streaming channels I let sit idle for days/weeks on end- why pay them?
	♥ 10:14am Webhamster Henry: That's right - why Spotify when you can WFMUify?
	♥ 10:15am steveo: some really great new releases this week, Trouble
	10:17am jesstowery: This song takes me back.
	♥ 10:17am Michele: Loving this track!
	10:18am glenn: not only does it take you back, it gets you drunk and holds your hair while you puke in the toilet,
	♥ 10:19am steveo: just got really nostalgic for the record player we had as a kid (why did this happen now and not last week I cannot say)
	♥ 10:20am steveo: they said "shit" in greased lightening and NOTHING BAD HAPPENED
	♥ 10:21am steveo: (the nightengales made me spell it that way)
	10:25am autumnyo2: Can someone tell me what the "listener number" is on the donation page? I keep trying to fill it out butttttt guess I"m putting the wrong thing in it?
	♥ 10:25am melinda: I rotate my online movie service subscriptions to make way for FMU, too.
	♥ 10:26am steveo: listener # is in your profile settings under "private info"
	10:26am BronwynB: good morning trouble and everyone!!
	♥ 10:26am Michele: @autumnyo2 Listener # is not required to pledge so don't worry about that and just continue the process. Let me know if you have any trouble.
	♥ 10:29am -Ken: Is anybody needing a heart or radio icon who doesn't have one? The radio icon is supposed to appear if you are a monthly swag for lifer, and the heart icon is supposed to appear if you've made a one-time pledge since October 2. Let me know if anybody's are missing.
	10:29am autumnyo2: Ah, danke! got it figured out! :)
	♥ 10:30am -Ken: @autimnyo2 - The listener number field is not required - just skip over it. If it is requiring it, please email me the details of what device and OS and browser you are on: ken at wfmu dot org
	♥ 10:32am ChrisB.: Ken, what is the icon for folks who have increased their SFL pledge?
	10:41am Itzall Ablurr: I did not know that Clay Pidgeon was a hired gun, but he is worth more than whatever he is being paid (unless it's a "livable wage" for NJ, in which case that's probably fair). In my opinion.
	10:42am Listener Robert: See, good you mentioned that, Trouble. I knew youse guys did the station's laundry, and I knew you don't stock disposable towels or a liquid soap dispenser, but I never knew until now that YOU TAKE THE LAUNDRY HOME! I'd assumed there was a washer & dryer there.
	10:42am samer: music for the people
	♥ 10:43am ChrisB.: I am rather astonished to hear the less than 10% of regular FMU listeners actually contribute to the station. Really???
	♥ 10:44am Michele: @ChrisB - It's true! I'm always shocked by that stat as well...
	10:44am Listener142985: ''What the hell are you listening to?'' is how mainstream dudes express their healthy curiosity without feeling too vulnerable. Yr welc.
	10:47am Paul In Bloomfield: I heard this years ago and never knew what it was! Thanks!
	♥ 10:47am Trouble: thanks for that insight to the average man @142985. priceless!
	10:48am Fashion Tashjian: Bari luys (good morning) from Yerevan! Sup fmuyers.

	♥ 10:55am mcally: First time poster here! Hi everyone!
	♥ 10:55am Michele: Welcome @mcally!
	10:56am Mark R: A great DJ knows when it's time to get a Thursday morning dance party going with some Lebanese disco! (I know some of you haven't been to bed yet, so don't even...)
	10:58am Itzall Ablurr: If that's not a Floor Banger I'll eat my cliche.
	♥ 10:59am mcally: @michele thank u!
	♥ 11:02am Planet Tyler: Hi @mcally!
	11:02am wittsend: a sorcerer has ensorcelled me; ensorcell him with the sorcery with which he ensorcelled me
	11:03am Mark R: Radio voices are for squares.
	♥ 11:03am Adrian in London: Wow, this radio voice: it's like I'm listening to the BBC World Service…
	11:04am samer: Michelle's radio voice is #goals
	11:05am peter: Ohh but that radio giggle!!!
	11:06am samer: wouldn't I be. William. Bill. Billy.
	11:06am Fashion Tashjian: Michelle on the air! Sup Michelle?
	♥ 11:07am BennettCap: I love Trouble's natural radio voice. No improvement necessary.
	11:07am Bill W: "Willie" is the one I always rejected. Didn't Ryan O'Neal play hockey for Harvard in LOVE STORY?
	♥ 11:09am Michele: What's up @Fashion Tashjian !!!
	11:09am karen eliot: Well said! Love you both!
	♥ 11:10am DonJuanTijuana: Trouble, raffle off a date with Michelle & watch the $ donations go up!
	11:11am Fashion Tashjian: @Michelle I haven't heard SUW in years because it's on at 2am here and miss y'all.
	♥ 11:12am Michele: @Fashion Tashjian: Tune in on the archive! It's been really fun lately... Love being a part of WFMU

	♥ 11:22am Michele: Seeing many Swag for Life Boomboxes! Very cool, thanks for the support everyone!
	♥ 11:23am BennettCap: Kinda weird to hear Gloria Jones, think of Marc Bolan's tragic death, then Hit and Run comes on.
	♥ 11:23am Michele: Hi Bennett!
	♥ 11:27am stalvey: this is a test...
	♥ 11:27am BennettCap: Hi Michele! I pledged yesterday. Soon my
	♥ 11:28am Passaic River Blues: Man, this is sublime.
	♥ 11:29am Ken From Hyde Park: Bewitching, isn't it?
	11:29am bobdoesthings: so many pants!
	11:29am queems: pantload indeed
	♥ 11:34am stalvey: fill every pant! where does 90% figure come from? pretty discouraging
	♥ 11:35am Dave from Summit: Hard to believe that only 10% of listeners donate...Sad Very sad.
	11:36am wittsend: This european song pairs well with some afternoon exercises in American social life. For this, train the upper lip by this method: 1) Stretch the upper lip down over the teeth. Say "Mo-o-o-o." 2) Hold the lip between the teeth and "smile" 3) Purse the lips, pull them downward and grin. 4) Let the lower jaw fall and try to touch your nose with your upper lip. Whatever the formula, nothing can be more tiresome than the tireless, cheerless pursuit of the "American Dream"
	♥ 11:41am Ken From Hyde Park: Happy to see the Trouble/Michel combo. I only met one Woof-Mooer at Sheep & Wool last weekend, a woman named Jill. I did get a couple comments about my snazzy new SUW t-shirt and I responded "Tune in at 6PM each Friday"
	♥ 11:44am Ken From Hyde Park: ^ (Michele)
	♥ 11:45am Michele: Hi @Ken From Hyde Park! Glad to hear it about the shirt, thanks for coming out and for supporting WFMU!
	♥ 11:46am Planet Tyler: Ok, i got my friend and my brother to donate yay!!
	11:47am Itzall Ablurr: Tender Buttons is a sublime Lp.
	♥ 11:48am Michele: @Planet Tyler that's what I like to hear! Good job!
	♥ 11:51am steveo: Do your students know you're on the radio?

	♥ 11:56am Trouble: yes steveo: they do
	11:56am B/wad: "TROUBLE SHOOT" no pun intended lol....
	♥ 11:56am Trouble: ken from hyde park: couldn't get close to the souvenir tent, crazy lines!!! was the jill woman a yarn vendor perhaps?
	♥ 11:57am steveo: cool; i can imagine it'd be hard not to tell them....
	11:57am B/wad: Ken, which Hyde Park is it that you're listening from?
	11:57am Fred: Thanks for playing "I'm Ready!" Love your show!!
	11:58am CeeDubbles: I was wearing my 'custom' SUW BiFacial shirt the other night, flashed the Great Gaylord, he even took out his earbuds to comment
	♥ 11:58am Ken From Hyde Park: @Trouble - Lines were indeed long. I have no info on Jill, other than she recognized my t-shirt. @B/wad - Hyde Park, NY, upriver from the WFMU studios.
	♥ 11:59am Passaic River Blues: Trouble's still the number one champeen! Thank you.
	♥ 12:00pm steveo: fun show -- thank you (I pledged to this show on Oct 2 [possibly before the official start of the maratho]... I hope it got into your total!)
