7:57am -Ken:

Clay's comment board should be unstuck now - is it?

🚽

8:00am Ken From Hyde Park:

The comments after 7:11 appeared, but it stopped again at 7:40.

8:06am (((Murakami Whywolf):

Play some DJ Hawking, please, e.g. "Fuck the Creationists". Not a request, but a plea.

8:06am (((Murakami Whywolf):

Duh, I meant "MC Hawking".

🚽

8:18am -Ken:

Are Clay's comments up again now? Jaysuss! trying to prepare for my marathon show.

8:58am Rob (Jerzcity):

that lamb looks like he can't hang tough like Lemmy. They musta had one helluva night.
Mornin'! Ken!

9:01am Rob (Jerzcity):

Jared Harris would be a great Lemmy, according to the velvet portrait

🚽

9:07am Ken From Hyde Park:

Over here is a playlist with a Lemmy Jesus image that one can clicky-star. www.wfmu.org...

9:10am Michael Shelley:

GOOD MORNING~ 1800 989 9368

9:10am Rob (Jerzcity):

crazy horses yesss!

9:13am Listener Robert:

When I saw the morning show scheduled until noon, I thought, oh no, Ken is down to shaking people down out on Montgomery St.

9:13am F$F$ (:

Oh, crap! People in Europe! The show has already started! Why no one told us about the daylight saving time change?

9:15am F$F$ (:

USA Daylight Saving Time*

9:16am TDK60:

9:18am Okasa:

Heil og sæl, herr Ken!

9:18am TDK60:

Nardwar got Lemme mad as he kept on saying "Lemme of Motorhead" and Lemme said "Will you stop saying that?" This was heard over the WFMU airwaves.

9:20am TDK60:

Lemmy that is.

9:20am Stepchild:

front page still stuck on Clay -- who could blame it tho, he's awesome

9:21am People Like Us:

YES indeed!

9:21am Rob (Jerzcity):

Regarding Lemmy as Welsh beach shepherd:

Nardwuar: I heard you once had a job walking donkeys along the beach. Kids would be on donkeys-
Lemmy: That was in Wales.

N: What was that job all about? This seems interesting! Lemmy of Motorhead walking donkeys with kids on the beach.
L: Well, I didn't do that. I used to take rides in school. I used to ride horses, not donkeys.

N: Did you ever wear those tights at all? They were sort of a precursor to Spandex, those biking-
L: What?

N: Those tights? Biking tights?
L: Tights?

N: Tights, you know. Tights for when you're riding a horse.
L: I don't understand. What do you mean?

N: You know like when you see people when they're riding a horse, they wear tight pants, tights, special-
L: Jumpers?

N: Yeah.
L: Tights are what we call pantyhose. Okay, yes. I didn't wear pantyhose much.

9:22am Ken From Hyde Park:

9:24am TDK60:

1960s hippy techno - Silver Apples.

9:24am Rich in NC:

more wishbone ash

9:26am TDK60:

Didn't Big Blood cover this recently?

9:26am Wishbone Ash:

Yes, please.

9:27am queems:

is this thing on?

9:27am bk845:

Hooray, the playlist is working!

9:27am TDK60:

A bargain.

9:28am steveo:

I'VE DONE SOME THINGS THAT CAN'T BE DONE

9:30am steveo:

@-Ken: since you asked, clay's playlist from today is NOT unstuck

9:32am Michele:

Playlists are looking good to me! I can't believe you are giving away the Lemmy Ken!!!!!

9:32am Linda Lee:

good morning Ken & Michael! ** listeners, please imagine life without WFMU ~ pledge!! **

🚽

9:33am Walt:

@TDK60 - yes. Played most recently on Garbage Time 2018-03-06.

9:33am Stepchild:

yay front page playlist fixed now

9:35am queems:

the accu on the app still seems sticky

9:35am steveo:

Oh, hey, Google Chrome now has a "Mute Site" which mutes that site forever until you unclick it (right click on the tab). Yay, no more sonic interruptions.

9:36am queems:

by that i mean chat function

9:37am melinda:

Hi Ken and Michael and everyone!

9:37am MD:

COME ON PEEP HOLES...BELLY UP TO DA BAR...

9:37am fleep:

some fun eh

9:37am northguineahills:

Thanks steveo!

9:39am MD:

Do it For The Kilmister! Do it for Van Gogh

9:39am ||||||WILD||||||||||||||NEIL||||||||||:

PEACE ALL. Can>Leather Nun is pretty awesome double clicky stars. C'mon and PLEDGE, I PLEDGED TILL IT HURT!!!!!!!!!

9:39am Lizardner Dave:

Upped my SFL to 41 for Felder. Eat it, Ken!

9:41am ||||||WILD||||||||||||||NEIL||||||||||:

My boss asked me to unload fire wood. Might get to run the hydraulic splitter today!

9:41am Aaron Working In Newark:

Forgot all about this song...

9:43am Linda Lee:

watch your fingers there Neil! love those splitters.

🚽

9:43am Ken From Hyde Park:

What velvet painting will replace Lemmy? I think we should pledge for a Don Felder painting. Every Tuesday morning at 11:00, people will flock to it, awaiting a miracle that his song won't be interrupted.

9:43am (Murakami Whywolf))):

How much to get Stacia—robed, and holding a lamb (and a sword)—on black velvet?

…or would that set-off a goat alarm?

🚽

9:44am NotARealDoctor:

Good morning, Ken, how much do I need to donate in order to get you to play some Mrs. Miller today?

9:44am TDK60:

Does the station have a black felt painting of Dick Cheney...up there in the WFMU Office Towers?

🚽

9:45am NotARealDoctor:

Also, does your ringtone CD have any Wing tones on it?

9:46am Aaron Working In Newark:

Ken just went too far.

🚽

9:47am NotARealDoctor:

I've always wanted a black velvet painting of Dick Cheney in the WFMU studio ever since TDK60 mentioned it 4 minutes ago.

9:48am Linda Lee:

but why?

9:48am Barry Kripke:

Yes, More wing tones pwease.

9:49am melinda:

No upper deckers! ha

9:49am Asheville Jon:

station manager ken, YOU SUCK!

9:49am F$F$ (:

9:51am Linda Lee:

those are some amazing darn ring tones!! wow!

9:51am PKNY:

Huge question: is the 'Karate Moves' guy on this ring tone CD?

9:52am MD:

HellRaiser...

9:52am Rob (Jerzcity):

I think I have a Fuck Buttons ring tone? But I rarrrrrrrely get phone calls so it's hard to remember without checking

9:53am Lewis:

ring tones are crucial - the initial cord from Hard Day's Night is a good one...

9:53am Michael Shelley:

Need the ringtones cd... not a problem. PLEDGE NOW $75 or more!

9:54am βrian:

Will these ring tones work on my 1967 Trimline phone? You know, the one in the hallway.

9:56am PKNY:

VVVOOOOOOOIIIIIIVVVVVVVOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!

9:56am MD:

LAMB...LIKE THE GUY WHO WON LAST NIGHT...

9:56am Chris from DC:

Um, Voivod!

🚽

9:56am Ken From Hyde Park:

Voivod! !! !!!

9:57am βrian:

I can't do it myself, but it seems like a good day to pledge $314. Or even $314.15

9:57am TDK60:

Wire: one of the best English bands!, especially recent albumz. Great. Ken, please tell Clay Wire has actually released a few rekkids since '79.

9:57am Asheville Jon:

you have a phone in your hallway? wow! i have to walk a mile (in the snow, up hill, both ways, with no shoes) just to use the pay phone on the corner at the convenience store

9:57am Elizabeth NYC:

Ken! Huge fan here. Gateway drug was Greasy Kids Stuff. Sent $365 check yesterday. But no swag for me. I am not worthy.

9:57am Lewis:

@Brian - right on...

9:58am βrian:

Are you sure this isn't Felder?

9:58am Linda Lee:

uphill both ways! wow. you're amazing Jon!! :-D

🚽

9:58am NotARealDoctor:

@Brian, is it the pearl-white slim-line push-button digital telephone with automatic last-number redial?

9:59am Jersey Cowboy:

Love this - Thank you Ken

9:59am F$F$ (:

I think Rob found the ringtones' fatal flaw! Average WFMU listeners like me never get any phone call (for we don't have friends).

For that matter, we should pledge and get a burner phone just to call ourselves! !

9:59am Asheville Jon:

well Linda Lee, you know how hilly it is here!

9:59am Lewis:

my Greasy Kids Stuff kid still proudly touts their swag! Saturday mornings were fun especially the birthday shout outs

10:00am Linda Lee:

truly. :-D

10:00am F$F$ (:

Wait a minute!!! Where is Cheri Pi!?!?! Why no VOOOOIIIVOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD from her?!

10:01am βrian:

No redial. More of an avocado green from the pre-Hass era.

10:01am Asheville Jon:

and it did snow here, so....

10:02am (Murakami Whywolf))):

WFMU needs a Netflix® series.

10:02am Linda Lee:

did it? :-D

10:03am ||||||WILD||||||||||||||NEIL||||||||||:

I knew a guy who said he worked for a guy(machine shop I think) that stopped buying toilet paper to save money. Soon thereafter the guy quit and found a new job.

10:04am Okasa:

Greasy Kids Stuff was the first show I regularly listened to on WFMU.

10:04am Asheville Jon:

yes! we got maybe kinda sorta possibly one inch....or less! schools closed, whole area in panic!

10:04am melinda:

I have a new Princess-style phone and an old Ericofon.

10:04am ||||||WILD||||||||||||||NEIL||||||||||:

@Asheville Jon-are you in SC?

10:05am Linda Lee:

well, that's it til summer. you're grounded. might as well take it easy.

10:05am Jersey Cowboy:

No Tears for the creatures of the night, no tears!

🚽

10:05am NotARealDoctor:

I'm afraid it only works on the trimline pricess phone with automatic redial :(

10:05am queems:

honestly the toilet paper was plush as hell and i will support that with my hard earned dollars

10:05am Sam:

Ooh, my favorite song!

10:06am Asheville Jon:

no, i'm in asheville

10:06am F$F$ (:

5000 dollars pledge?! That's nothing! I once pledged 6000 dollars. They were Zimbabwean dollars, though.

10:06am Lewis:

The Hype-free zone is crucial - I have argued for strings-attached funding in the past and I was WRONG!!!! This commitment is real and unbending and it really matters!

10:07am F$F$ (:

I think Wild Neil was asking you if you have SnapChat, Ashville Jon

10:07am Linda Lee:

that's the beautiful state of North Carolina, Neil ~

10:07am Lewis:

A side of Tuxedomoon that I am not familiar with - I like it...

10:09am Asheville Jon:

no no no, NC is not beautiful. it's ugly, lots of rednecks and hillbillies, please stay away. keep driving until you get to floriDUH. Thanks

10:09am Asheville Jon:

snapchat? is that some kind of new dance?

10:10am Linda Lee:

this is true. especially Asheville.

10:10am steveo:

why isn't there that one billionaire family black sheep that wants to die and leave wfmu a 100 million dollar endowment or something?

10:11am jmr3:

No need to come to Florida. It's full.

10:12am melinda:

A small amount of snow can cause big problems if everyone drives on it and condenses it into something slippery, with no sand or salt trucks. Maybe not one inch, though.

10:12am crateslinger:

My daughter heard her birthday name on GKS when she was three and started crying because, well, it didn't make any sense...

10:13am Linda Lee:

melinda ~ Buncombe County just doesn't 'do' snow. that's a fact.

🚽

10:13am NotARealDoctor:

Asheville John. I have been to Asheville. I spend every summer in the Outer Banks. You're absolutely right. Please don't vacation or visit NC. It's terrible. Rental prices are much too expensive. Just don't vacation there people. Go to DelMarVa instead.

10:14am crateslinger:

I was in Cincinnati for a snow storm once. All the cars flipped over and the buildings caught fire.

10:14am Asheville Jon:

i dunno jmr3, it must not be too full. i see way too many floriDUH license plates around here, usually driving the wrong way or blocking traffic.

10:14am fleep:

gotta keep your nozzles clean

10:14am Sam:

I was going to drive down the Blue Ridge Parkway to Asheville next week, but the whole bloody's thing's closed. Have to take the interstate.

10:14am ||||||WILD||||||||||||||NEIL||||||||||:

@Asheville-I am sorry Buffalo keeps sending Western New Yorkers down there with their "supposedly better work ethic". Somebody actually told me that and I thought it was incredibly parochial and short-sighted. Thoughts? I lived in the SouthWest (NM) and think its a better, slower pace of life. I AM a redneck also, and educated one so I know why you are saying that.

10:14am Asheville Jon:

well Sam, they close it in the winter because of bad weather.

10:15am F$F$ (:

steveo,

Indeed. Imagine the size of Ken's summer house mansion in the lake with that 100 million pledge.

10:15am Asheville Jon:

wild neil, where in NM?

10:16am Sam:

Darn

10:16am crateslinger:

North Carolina was known in early colonial times as The Great Dismal Swamp, home to pirates, criminals, and the Scotch-Irish.

10:17am fleep:

Powerball is up to $420 million, someone here win that. Problem solved.

🚽

10:17am Walt:

Keep those Pity Pledges coming!

10:17am carter:

lot of pity pledges ken.:.

10:17am BronwynB:

hello ken and michael and everyone!

10:17am #FelderNation:

Pity pledges don't count, Ken

10:17am steveo:

lol f0f0; maybe he'll build a remote studio there, too

10:18am F$F$ (:

So if SC is not SnapChat, NM does not stand for New Michigan?

10:18am βrian:

What makes for a better work ethic is temperate weather, so unless they can export the climate, they're out of luck.

10:18am Linda Lee:

Scotland represents!! heavy lifting yet again.

10:19am crateslinger:

Why don't I have a heart next to my name? I pledged to Glen Jones in the first ten minutes. Is it because I called it in on the phone?

🚽

10:19am NotARealDoctor:

NM is North Missipi, I think, F$F$

10:20am (((Murakami Whywolf):

Ken: have you seen "The Deuce"?

10:20am βrian:

@crateslinger: Hearts have a very short half-life.

10:21am βrian:

What's a cable bill?

10:21am (Murakami Whywolf))):

North Mississippi ain't on no map.

10:22am Roberto:

ACORNS!

10:22am Asheville Jon:

when is the marathon over? so burned out on hearing this

10:22am F$F$ (:

crateslinger

Is this your heart? > ♥ I found it outside the comment section.

10:23am MD:

big pharma oak trees created the ACORN EPIDEMIC!!!

🚽

10:24am AnAnonymousParty:

Cable Bill is like Fire Marshall Bill, only far less funny but just as annoying.

10:24am listener Rey:

All I wanted to do was hear Felder, and he wouldn't let me!

10:24am MD:

I had to use peanuts to get off acorns!!!

10:24am convoy_pt2:

What is the background song right now?? Ear worms

10:25am melinda:

@Brian yes. People in cold climates like to pat themselves on the back for their 'work ethic' but really it's a byproduct of staying in motion to keep warm.

10:25am Linda Lee:

big pharma created the Acorn Epidemic with help from the Federal Department of Acorns.

10:25am βrian:

Putin's minions have been known to hack their way into steal hearts and radios.

10:26am βrian:

@melinda: Agreed.

10:26am Linda Lee:

cultural mythos is a bitch.

10:28am jmr3:

@Asheville Jon: It's def too full, they are wandering around lost, after having migrated from cold places and are now confused and overdosed on high blood pressure medicine, missed their Palm Coast exit and now driving too slowly on roads that have curves and hills, looking through, rather than over their steering wheels.

10:28am Roberto:

This The The is The Best The Best.

10:28am Asheville Jon:

need coffee. too lazy to get up out of chair to go make it. should probably just go back to sleep, but that would also involve getting up out of the chair. and at that point i could just as easily be making coffee. what to do...

10:28am Sam:

You'd think Putin would be satisfied with what he's done. But no, he just keeps pushing the asshole envelope to ridiculous levels. Poisoning people, messing with elections, god, what a dick. Just retire already and live it up in your dacha, you dumbass!

10:29am Linda Lee:

welcome to my adult life, Jon :-D

10:30am F$F$ (:

My problem with THE THE is that I have never known which article in Spanish refers to? Is it EL EL? Or is it LA LA? Or is it the neutra LO LO? Help me!

10:31am Asheville Jon:

i'm almost tempted to pledge $20 to NOT win the cd, and if i did win it, i'd let MatWW smash it on air.

10:32am Linda Lee:

gotta get up for that, Jon.

10:32am Asheville Jon:

crap, yeah. i forgot. and i'd have to walk to the store to phone it in.

10:33am F$F$ (:

And remeber, it's uphill both ways, Asheville Jon

10:33am austin:

Sounds like broadcast!

10:34am Asheville Jon:

yes! and there is snow on the ground. ugh

10:34am Cecile:

I think I need the info for your black velvet painting guy. I think I need a black velvet Conchita Wurst at some point.

Also, I think this would be a good jam for you, Ken. It is in German, but so stupid I lose an IQ point every time I listen to it.

www.youtube.com...

🚽

10:35am NotARealDoctor:

I've pledged again. ARE YOU HAPPY KEN?! That's the second time today alone!

10:35am MD:

free beer free beer...

10:36am Linda Lee:

@Ken, i do believe the Boogie Woogie song from the Kenschlappen might help!

10:36am MD:

water cycle!!!

10:36am F$F$ (:

Please, a big round of applause to NotARealDoctor! And with both hands for better effect.

10:37am Greg from ZONE 5:

To be fair, I'm always smiling and mellow BECAUSE I'm at WFMU.

10:38am Cecile:

Disco! Pogo! Dingalingaling!

🚽

10:39am NotARealDoctor:

*lacking all self-awareness, takes a completely unironic bow*

10:40am βrian:

It's like a Tuvan Leonard Cohen.

10:41am Linda Lee:

only one tone though!

10:44am Doobois:

A commemorative WFMU wax Kendle would rule.

10:45am ||||||WILD||||||||||||||NEIL||||||||||:

@Asheville Jon-Las Cruces (home of NMSU Aggies!) and Alamogordo (home of Holloman Air Force Base and formerly the Stealth Fighter!).

10:46am Asheville Jon:

cool wild neil. i lived in albuquerque for about 8 years. sure do miss the green chiles and new mexican food

🚽

10:48am Webhamster Henry:

Siberia: You could hang out in Yakutsk with Olena ("Olga") Podluzhnaya!

10:49am F$F$ (:

Ken just need to play Pussy Riot inside a Russian Orthodox Church to get a free ticket to Siberia.

10:49am Asheville Jon:

hmmm, coffee milk. almost sorta motivating me to go make coffee

10:49am Cecile:

Super toll!

10:50am βrian:

Piñon, green chiles, and meth, no?

10:50am F$F$ (:

I luv your German pronunciation, Cecile!

10:50am Linda Lee:

sure do remember the singles in their own bin!

10:51am Cecile:

they would play the top 40 songs period.

10:52am ||||||WILD||||||||||||||NEIL||||||||||:

@AJ-YES! Hatch chilis! And The Black Plague!

10:52am crateslinger:

@F$F$ (: - kind of looks like my heart from here, but tell me... is it covered with dainty little foot prints, like a beautiful angel from heaven stomped it into the cold mud again and again without even caring that I would do anything for her?

10:53am melinda:

Wow, interesting FMU history.

10:53am Linda Lee:

Micheal's right ~ there's a book in your story Ken! followed by a film.

10:53am Cecile:

Sehr gut!

10:53am Sony BMG:

Now we just buy up all the radio stations and make them play what we want.

10:54am Linda Lee:

& that's why we're drowning in your shit, Sony.

🚽

10:54am NotARealDoctor:

Followed by a book about the making of the film, followed by a documentary about the book about the film!

10:54am βrian:

It's almost time. Almost ...

10:55am Linda Lee:

@NotARealDoctor ~ exactly. that's how it's done!

🚽

10:55am NotARealDoctor:

@Sony BMG, you can't do that! You have to use a shell corporation to put a little bit of room between you and the radio stations!

10:55am Listener Robert:

If you want to make Ken uncomfortable, bring up grey-area scenarios where he might be temped and conflicted about possible commercialism -- far from outright corruption. Actually you can make a LOT of people uncomfortable by making them confront the boundaries of their ethics. Because they're good but also ambitious people.

10:55am fleep:

Are we holding up a song for ransom today?

10:56am F$F$ (:

crateslinger,

It looks more like BigFoot stomped on it. Sorry to say.

10:56am Linda Lee:

@Listener Robert ~ my guess is Ken is uncomfortable as a state of being. he's the station manager after all.

10:56am Evan From Seattle:

Ken is possibly feeling some blowback from yesterday's Coltrain Offensive

10:56am BronwynB:

Sony, is that really you??? I loved the Emoji Movie!

10:59am Linda Lee:

wow, we're all becoming as wise to systemic corruption as the Soviets!

10:59am duke:

I just tuned in to hear Heavy Metal. Doesn't Ken play that every week at 11?

11:00am Linda Lee:

here, duke. just take my earworm. please.

11:01am melinda:

@Evan yeah, the Coltrane Offensive was funny but didn't go down well with die-hards. The whole show was hilarious.

11:01am James from worthing:

Who won the institutionalised record? I had to go on the tube and lost my reception!

11:02am Linda Lee:

@melinda ~ really briliiant. hysterical.

11:02am Sony BMG:

@BB: ☺

11:03am northguineahills:

me gusta los mueran humanos!

11:03am Linda Lee:

moi aussi!

11:05am F$F$ (:

EL CIRCULOOOOOOOO!!! The best song that insults the British Royals, threatens the British Naval Forces with a sky 'surprise' by night, a land 'surprise' by day if they attempt to enter the (Antartic) Circle which by mere coincidence covers the Falkland/Malvinas Island area that there is!!!!

🚽

11:06am AnAnonymousParty:

Everybody Out! 6 exits, no waiting!

11:06am Asheville Jon:

yeah but Ken, you also upped the station goal by 300,000 this year.

🚽

11:06am NotARealDoctor:

@James, it wasn't me, nothing else matters

🚽

11:07am NotARealDoctor:

@Ken, can a secret society pledge get me a copy of the Institutionalized CD as well?

You are getting my dander up, once I figure out what dander is.

11:09am queems:

11:09am βrian:

It's like Matt's form of penance for listeners. If you want to hear the good stuff, you also have to kneel on gravel and listen to Felder.

11:09am jess:

quit knocking on garbage time!

11:09am Lizardner Dave:

It's not the "secret society", it's "$41 for Felder".

11:10am dgg:

#FlimFlamNation

11:10am melinda:

yay People Like Us

11:10am F$F$ (:

Obviously Gargage Time refers to the 11AM playing of Felder's Heavy Metal. Not to be confused with Donkey Time! Which is about NOT playing Heavy Metal.

11:11am Linda Lee:

Vicki is just amazing. brilliant.

🚽

11:11am NotARealDoctor:

I want all of the prizes, but I can't afford more than $1000 in a 2 week period to pledge for every contest.

11:11am βrian:

We're not knocking the sinner, @jess. Just the sin.

11:13am F$F$ (:

If you were ARealDoctor, I'm pretty sure you would afford to pledge more than a thousand... a week!

11:13am northguineahills:

I don't think I've ever seen PLU on vinyl before!

11:14am dgg:

god that Lemmy painting is amazing - is that hanging in the station bldg?

🚽

11:14am NotARealDoctor:

That depends on the type of doctor. My mom's a retired GP pediatrician and would not have been able to afford $1000 a week. However I went to school with the son of a spinal surgeon whose dad definitely COULD afford $1000/wk

11:15am Stepchild:

Love getting lost in sound and PLU leads me beautifully astray

🚽

11:16am NotARealDoctor:

I also have a 3rd cousin who was a doctor, a lot of his money was tied up in legal fees and court proceedings due to the controversial nature of his work.

11:17am northguineahills:

My father was a GP in the Navy, so, he made nearly the same as anyone else in the Navy his rank.

11:19am Listener Robert:

Garbage time is near the end of a timed team contest when it's already obvious which team is going to win, and both teams put in their scrubs and the regular players lose their form and play carelessly or very speculatively. Most commonly heard of in basketball.

11:19am βrian:

How much could doctors in the UK's health service afford, I wonder? That may change post-Brexit, too.

11:20am F$F$ (:

Well, I guess it depends on the doctor. I heard Doctor Bootygrabber practice barely brings him any money (he has always operated in the red).

11:21am Okasa:

Hi F$F$!

11:22am dgg:

Doctor Bootygraber charges by the booty/hour.

🚽

11:24am NotARealDoctor:

HE SAID NORFOLK RIGHT! It's supposed to sound like you can't say on radio!

11:24am adampsyche:

i'm here FOR IT ALL

🚽

11:24am NotARealDoctor:

I say "zjaif"

11:24am Linda Lee:

radio is how i listen to music, actually. :-D

11:25am F$F$ (:

Oh, thanks! And thank you, cory! But can't believe they mispronounced my name. It's "F - dollar sign - F - dollar sign".

11:25am βrian:

I say "gah-fah-illy-if"

🚽

11:25am NotARealDoctor:

Oh @Linda Lee, you hipster! ;-)

11:25am Okasa:

On my death bed, with my final breath, I will say "GIF" with a hard G.

11:26am F$F$ (:

Hey! Okasa!

(Why I always read your name as 'Okasa Es Mi Casa'?)

11:26am Asheville Jon:

coffee almost ready

11:27am Linda Lee:

honey, i wish i could afford 'hipster' :-D

11:27am Lewis:

@Ashevill Jon - oh right! thanks for the reminder!

11:28am Asheville Jon:

sure thing Lewis. took me almost an hour to get ambitious enough to get out of my chair to go make it

11:28am Linda Lee:

actually where i live they're called 'hicksters' :-)

11:28am βrian:

Is there no "baby animal" ring tone?

11:29am Jan-Willem in Belgium:

YES! Grauzone! thanks Ken, love this. there must be a way to replace Don Felder with this..

11:29am Morphe:

Kenster-FabulosenKen - so want to pledge now but wetting upon Andy had/has more rationale(German???Cent$$$$$$$$)
Good Show..
Arnan,Simon y Morphe

11:30am Asheville Jon:

hey Ken, hear this: YOU SUCK!!

11:31am Asheville Jon:

oh yeah, sweet, sweet nectar....coffeeeeeeeee

11:31am duke:

WFMU profit scheme
1. Have radio station
2. Play Felder
3 ???
4. Profit

11:32am Linda Lee:

congratulations on your decision. :-)

11:33am heyitschris:

is it up@wfmu.org or upyours@wfmu.org? just upped my sfl pledge amount to the latter.

11:33am Cecile:

Ken's Schlumpy Ladies, tbh.

11:34am Vincent Nifigance:

This is why Germans are such strong contributors when marathon time rolls around.

11:35am Linda Lee:

Ach! Der Kenschlampen!! Sehr gut!

11:36am Asheville Jon:

wo ist die rathaus? very important to know this information.

11:36am F$F$ (:

Die Fabulosen TheKenSchlampen! But don't die yet!

11:36am Michele:

Both up@wfmu.org and upyours@wfmu.org work for upping your Swag for Life monthly pledges.

11:36am Linda Lee:

is it der or die?

11:36am Michele:

Even $5 extra a month really does help us.

11:37am Morphe:

Ken - tooooo weird (unless you just saw it???) I posted at 1129est Kenster-FabulosenKen - seriously...and you are playing at 1131 - instant gratification ..c

🚽

11:37am NotARealDoctor:

The gif for Grauzone is perfectly in time with the Die Fabulosen TheKenSchlampen song

11:37am F$F$ (:

Linda Lee,

If you love them it is DER as in masculine. If you hate them it is DIE as in kill yourself!

11:37am Kerbo:

two of my favorite songs of 2017 die fab!

11:37am Asheville Jon:

pretty sure it would be 'die', but i don't speak german.

11:37am PMD:

Ich liebe di KenSchlampen, aber brauch ich die CD nicht.

11:37am Lewis:

is this cut in the running for clickystars with Felder?

11:38am Cecile:

Where is City Hall, Jon? I know I expected a Rathaus to be a lot more exciting.

11:38am queems:

i remember this guy back from the days of animutations

11:39am Linda Lee:

Thank you F$F$ (: ~

11:39am Cecile:

Where is City Hall, Jon? I know I expected a Rathaus to be a lot more exciting.

11:39am Vincent Nifigance:

@LindaLee Der for masculine nouns, die for feminine nouns and das neutral nouns.

11:39am dgg:

Dr. Das Bootygrabber.

11:39am Cecile:

ugh, double post.

11:39am Jackie:

I made a thing:
wfmu.org...

11:40am Cecile:

and his female counterpart, Dr. Die Bootygrabberin.

11:40am Linda Lee:

Thanks Vincent.

11:41am melinda:

@Jackie haha

11:41am queems:

@jackie i love it

11:42am Cecile:

Jackie, that is cute as hell.

11:42am Asheville Jon:

it's good to know where die rathaus is, because it's often in the center of a city where there's lots going on (beer, food, etc). when lost, it's easier to ask where that is rather than "where's that bar" since there are about a bazillion bars in deutschland

11:42am Own CrabappleSatellite Johnzon:

Hey Ken, I was out walking my dog when this came up so I couldn't comment at the time... I was hoping you could provide some clarification in re. your earlier anecdote. So... when the guy from Aligator Records showed up with a wad of cash the DJ DID play his record or did NOT? I'm just curious... I mean if that's your protocol I might stop by next time I'm in New Jersey... also how big a wad was it? What's the minimum wad size to bribe a WFMU DJ with? Does it depend on the DJ... I'm sorry I just have so many questions now!!!

11:42am Linda Lee:

good one Jackie! noun not adjective PLZ

11:42am Cecile:

Play Disco Pogo.

11:42am Carmichael:

You should play Felder twice to make up for yesterday.

11:42am PMD:

@LindaLee I had to look up what gender CD is. Found this online: The most common method, though, is to take the gender of the nearest German translation or equivalent. So we have, for example:

"das Baby", because of "das Kleinkind"
"der Pyjama", because of "der Schlafanzug"
"das Blog", because "blog" is short for "web log", and "log" means "das Logbuch"
"die CD", because "CD" means "compact disc", and "disc" means "die Scheibe"
"der Smoking" because it is a type of suit, which in German is "der Anzug"

11:43am Cecile:

That's smart, Jon!

I was just disappointed because it wasn't a house for rats.

11:43am dgg:

I feel like the Germans must have one long word for "Heavy Metal (takin' a ride)"

11:43am Asheville Jon:

sorry Cecile. :)

11:44am Linda Lee:

Thank you PMD! :-)

11:44am queems:

rock climbing perhaps

11:44am Carmichael:

Nice work, Jackie!

11:44am melinda:

Great story, Michael.

11:44am Jackie:

thank you!

11:45am dgg:

are you seriously giving that lemmy painting away? holy crap.

11:45am Sebastian:

oh man, I'm so late, is the Lemmy-picture gone already?

11:45am Linda Lee:

they are!

11:45am F$F$ (:

PMD,

Why check on the internet when -in the absence of Guido from Cologne- I am here to help you all with your German enquiries? I don't think I have told you this before but I did a German Introductory course in 1998 (with a specialization in Alphabet Pronunciation).

11:46am dgg:

amazing!

11:47am Linda Lee:

personally i ask here because the internet doesn't get my jokes.

11:47am Sebastian:

@dgg possible translation: "Schwermetal (unterwegs)"

11:47am Evan From Seattle:

It makes me so happy to hear when other people in the great state of Washington are fellow WFMU listeners that pledge to the same shows I listen to. It warms my Felders.

11:47am Morphe:

Speaking of swag visicissitudes(sp)..I do not wear any swag but saw a fellow with fmu stuff on his kit - we chatted - fmu slave to fmu slave - nice guy named Tim. I am the Tim who cannot carry a tune with a wheelbarrow..

11:48am AnAnonymousParty:

This counts as snappy. Money well spent.

11:48am F$F$ (:

Alles kool in Istanbul, Sebastian?

11:48am Asheville Jon:

a good friend of mine lives in Istanbul

11:48am Sebastian:

logo, FoFo!

11:49am howard in nyc:

I come for the ken, and stay for the schlampen

🚽

11:51am NotARealDoctor:

I've actually never listened to the station before. I only come for the message board and the GIFs.

11:52am dgg:

well, I have to take a crack at lemmy there.

11:52am Carmichael:

Istanbul, not Constantinople.

11:53am F$F$ (:

NotARealListener

🚽

11:54am NotARealDoctor:

Ken, please help, I've tried to make another pledge but there only seems to be an option to pledge in USD. How do I pledge the life of my first born child?

11:55am dgg:

ooh oops. I should have guessed it was 30 a month and not just $30. Too spectacular a prize for that.

11:55am Asheville Jon:

aw, ken got a PITY PLEDGE from frangry. quaint

🚽

11:55am AnAnonymousParty:

But if you listen to the station while looking at the GIFs, and reflect on it you will eventually ask yourself, "why am I listening to this?"

🚽

11:56am Ken From Hyde Park:

Happy π Day!

11:56am dgg:

A New Jersey home for Lemmy! Fitting.

11:57am Stepchild:

Come to daddy, Lemmy!!!

11:57am Linda Lee:

congratulations! :-)

11:57am Asheville Jon:

congrats Richard!

11:57am F$F$ (:

Damn you new USA Daylight Saving Time! I was thinking there was another one hour to go!

11:59am F$F$ (:

Thanks, Ken, people like me and us! Till next episode and remember to be happy! NOW!!! >:-|

12:00pm bobo:

hello! Sorry for being a bit late. If you are not accepting requests. Can I still run for the Lemmy painting?

12:07pm Sebastian:

what the hell... they are screwing around with the time again?!!?!
