Hey

Did you know that adding a little Dawn to your marbles is a great way to clean your blender after making a blueberry & avocado protein shake?

♥ 12:09pm Krys O.:

Good afternoon! Enjoying your selection as I search for shower faucet handle replacement videos.

12:15pm adrian elaine in mpls:

♥ 12:19pm Sem:

Greets, the Bryce, and those harbouring a love of whatever notes fall from his pinata of a show, as he hits again and again.

♥ 12:20pm Phillippe Bastille:

@sem love that characterization!

12:21pm karen eliot:

morbid afternoon :)

♥ 12:21pm Hubig Pie:

I was hoping there was going to be some raga

♥ 12:22pm KenW:

Hallo Bryce, and fellow Marble Misadventurers,,,,, WOW, thanks a bazillion Bryce for the Akos Rozmann happy beginning, I cherish this album!!!!

♥ 12:23pm Sem:

Love this show, PB.

♥ 12:25pm common:

Very pleasant

♥ 12:26pm chresti:

Hello

♥ 12:27pm Krys O.:

Reminds me of playing with my sister's hair dryer hose as a tiny tot. With that and a box fan, you could make some wonderful sounds.

♥ 12:28pm Carmichael:

Heya ol' buddy, ol' pal, ol' sport.

12:28pm karen eliot:

a masterpiece of the tortured soul. powerful.

12:29pm Rory:

Bryce, stop fooling around and play some Nickleback.

♥ 12:31pm Carmichael:

Is this the monkey from Dave the Spazz' show?

12:32pm karen eliot:

adding this to my “hooray for apocalypse” playlist

♥ 12:33pm KenW:

This album took 23 years to write, between 1978- 2001, a masterpiece!

12:35pm markie_post:

I take your question, Bryce.

♥ 12:37pm crateslinger:

There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,
Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.

♥ 12:37pm crateslinger:

music to make you feel unsafe in your own home... Where's Shiela B when you need her!

♥ 12:39pm Bryce:

was just in the library, 2 floors away, wildly pulling records.

the power must have gone off in my house, bc i can't connect to my home library....which was my plan for today. DOH!

♥ 12:40pm Bryce:

so many points of failure in this digital world

♥ 12:41pm crateslinger:

not to mention how many different ways she can ignore me...

♥ 12:41pm common:

Records. Yes

♥ 12:42pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

bloody "libraries."

♥ 12:42pm KenW:

Doin' it old school Brother!

♥ 12:42pm Bryce:

burn them down

♥ 12:44pm Krys O.:

Had a crappy morning. The shower handle broke albeit just as I was finished, then was surrounded by smokers at the bus stop ACK! It will get better soon.

♥ 12:45pm Hubig Pie:

I turned off the lights, drew down the shades and am pretending I'm going insane

♥ 12:46pm Phillippe Bastille:

Need I have to say my dogs haven't acted like this since we inherited a robot vac?

12:49pm Manana:

Thought I heard felines in there. Uncredited?

♥ 12:50pm crateslinger:

when I say "she can ignore me" I'm talking of course about all pronouns, not Sheila B as may appear from the coincidence of my comments. Just so everybody knows - I'm totally woke.

♥ 12:51pm chresti:

I like the air raid siren parts of this song.

♥ 12:52pm KenW:

THANKS for the Bill Burns too!!!!! Absolutely adorable stuff, wish he was around when I was a kid!!!!!! billburnsprojects.com...

♥ 12:54pm Bryce:

oh wow, thanks, ken!! i had no information on him, other than that he made this record with toronto school children.

♥ 12:55pm KenW:

Bryce, he's a REALLY cool artist, thrilled to hear him on your show!!!!

♥ 12:56pm Krys O.:

I saw a wild turkey fall out of a tree yesterday and it scared the bejeebus out of me with wings flapping and its wobbly yell.

♥ 12:57pm Bryce:

even wild animals have klutzy moments

♥ 1:00pm Sem:

A real workshop on the labial fricative. Now that's educational.

♥ 1:01pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

Wild turkeys are hilarious. Doesn't seem as though they should fly, yet they manage. Like wobbly levitating laundry-bags in the midst of a panic attack...

♥ 1:02pm Krys O.:

That wild turkey casually sauntered off into the wooded glen.

♥ 1:04pm chresti:

Haha RTD

♥ 1:06pm KenW:

LOL> your right about Canada and school children>>>> The Langley School Music Project www.youtube.com...

♥ 1:09pm Chris from DC:

Oh yay, just saw Scott play last night.

1:14pm Rory:

Ugh, Turkeys are pathetic! The only bird I disrespect.

♥ 1:14pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

ESS VEE.

♥ 1:14pm Passaic River Blues:

"Levitating laundry-bags"! Love that.

1:15pm Rory:

Ugly creatures with that fucking weird squawk or what you call it

♥ 1:15pm crateslinger:

that turkey may not have fallen, Krys O - you have also described how they fly

♥ 1:16pm Phillippe Bastille:

Wasn't Ben Franklin rumoured to have lobbied for the turkey to be national bird instead of the eagle?

♥ 1:17pm ɛɨk:

ROTFL you guys are making my day almost not suck, thanks

1:17pm Manana:

How about some thankfulness for our turkey friends? Yeesh.

♥ 1:18pm Chris from DC:

As god is my witness I didn't think turkeys could fly.

♥ 1:18pm Bryce:

wild turkeys are actually pretty smart!

♥ 1:21pm Phillippe Bastille:

Saw a study recently that compared problem solving skills in crows vs young children (4 yrs old maybe) and the crow won almost very time. We should pit the turkey against the same crows and kids and see what the pecking order looks like

♥ 1:22pm crateslinger:

Wild Turkeys are smart, but domestic turkeys can drown in the rain by continuously looking up to see what is tapping them on the head, so you have to put a roof on their hutch. They have like no brain whatsoever.

♥ 1:22pm crateslinger:

Their beak noses fill with water and they drown.

♥ 1:23pm steveo:

hello, I am glad to be listening. i saw a pigeon with a missing foot and I felt a little sad for him, but he did not seem to feel sad for himself.

♥ 1:24pm Hubig Pie:

Too much wild turkey and I start talking to my imaginary friends

♥ 1:25pm Phillippe Bastille:

They put some floating food that the crow likes in a container of water so the bird couldn't reach it, did something similar, either food or a small toy, can't remember which, for the kids and left a lot of small stuff around. The crows figured out that if you drop objects in the container, the water level would rise and they could get the food. The kids, not so much.

♥ 1:25pm Phillippe Bastille:

Hubig Pie. I'm someone else's imaginary friend.

♥ 1:28pm chresti:

Crows are smart

♥ 1:28pm crateslinger:

Search says turkeys drowning is a myth, but that's what my dad told me, and he had domestic turkeys for decades, and they were certainly dumb (maybe so was I). I have hunted wild turkeys, and they are not dumb.

♥ 1:31pm KenW:

TREMENDOUS show Bryce, this will be on heavy archive rotation all weekend!

♥ 1:32pm crateslinger:

some PR for crows:
www.utne.com...

♥ 1:32pm Phillippe Bastille:

kinda nasty too. even geese don't mess around with crows.

♥ 1:34pm Hubig Pie:

When does a crow become a grackle?

♥ 1:34pm Phillippe Bastille:

thanks crateslinger. bookmarked for later

♥ 1:36pm crateslinger:

@PB - it's a good read. I found it quickly because I still remember the slogan from when I read it one time 18 years ago.

♥ 1:37pm ɛɛɛɨk:

LIFE IS SUFFERING. THE ANGUISH OF THE UNIVERSE FLOWS THROUGH ME.

So how's everybody else doing today?

♥ 1:39pm sphere:

@ ɛɛɛɨk - Pretty good, actually!

♥ 1:39pm Bryce:

wish i could stop to look up some of my favorite crow-human interaction videos

♥ 1:41pm Chris from DC:

Now a crow/human interaction as such, but www.youtube.com...

♥ 1:41pm sphere:

there's the study where researchers wore masks of a GOP president and harassed crows. From then on, the crows attacked anyone who wore one of those masks.

♥ 1:42pm Chris from DC:

*Not

1:43pm bob:

90.1 has different program than. the stream

1:43pm karen eliot:

hunky dory! this is a really good show

♥ 1:43pm steveo:

a book about crows that i enjoyed was Crow Planet by Lyanda Lynn Haupt

♥ 1:44pm sphere:

sorry the mask was of Dick Cheney:

www.popsci.com...

1:44pm mic_channel:

Crows and grackles are different birds. We have them both around here. Grackles are seasonal, a little smaller and have subtle iridescent feathering on their heads and necks. And they walk like jerky windup toys. I once saw a crow chase off a cat that was stalking a rabbit. So baffling, but wonderful. What was the motivation, other than being badass? Hello Bryce!

♥ 1:45pm steveo:

@bob homepage says 90.1 is off the air

♥ 1:45pm Bryce:

sphere, yes, not only THAT....but if i'm not misremembering, after much time had passed, and there was a new generation of crows around, the crows offspring also reacted to the masks, as if they had been told stories.

♥ 1:45pm northguineahills:

@Spere: Corvids are known for good facial recognition. If you're nice to them, they'll be nice to you. If you're a dick to them, better be ready to cower when they see you....

1:46pm wfmu_listener_phillip:

channel 5 WNYW FOX 5 here in new york is gone from the airwaves!

1:47pm wfmu_listener_phillip:

i have rescanned for it a hundred times and ots gone! i find out later they moved their transmitter out of range of the NYC area

♥ 1:48pm Hubig Pie:

This station provides knowledge as well as entertainment

♥ 1:48pm Bryce:

youtu.be...

1:48pm wfmu_listener_phillip:

i dont have cable tv anymore:(::::: sad

1:50pm karen eliot:

loved that. they brought her gifts.

♥ 1:51pm steveo:

the bbc link is wonderful

♥ 1:51pm Bryce:

till the nimbys stepped in

♥ 1:56pm chresti:

So cool! @1:46

♥ 1:59pm Krys O.:

I talk to animals and give them respect, but I fear wild turkeys. They can be aggressive and impulsive. They sometimes cross the busy road near the office just as cars appear. A propos of bird sounds, I LOVE honking geese.

1:59pm mic_channel:

Ah, a cruisin' submarine track.

2:05pm BH:

this is giving me the urge to check the BBC Shipping Forecast

♥ 2:05pm chresti:

I want to get/make a birdbath

♥ 2:08pm Bryce:

youtu.be...

♥ 2:10pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

...and HORSES are not to be trusted.
Nothing with a face that long can be trusted.

When your nostrils are proportionally THAT FAR from your ears, you must realize that your head is irreparably weird and nothing makes sense.

♥ 2:12pm chresti:

A friend said that a crow/raven would follow him, as he was driving his car across town. Not sure if it was the same crow he used to feed through a rip in the backdoor screen

♥ 2:14pm chresti:

*fed peanuts to*

2:21pm wfmu_listener_phillip:

this set sounds like my favorite Tape Artist William Basinski.

♥ 2:23pm coelacanth∅:

hello

2:29pm Rory:

Really great show today Bryce

2:29pm John from florham park:

Anyone ready for the best show of the week

2:31pm nic:

love the show!!!

♥ 2:31pm Krys O.:

My mom had a mockingbird stake his claim to her porch a few years ago. He was fed apples and pears from my mom's trees. He would wait for her front door to open, then he would sing. She named him Janek. He fought off hawks.

♥ 2:34pm coelacanth∅:

awesome shit

♥ 2:35pm Bryce:

thx, rory, nic, coelacanth∅!

nice to see you too, john, lolllll

♥ 2:35pm coelacanth∅:

...(-the music; but also the mockingbird story)

♥ 2:36pm coelacanth∅:

hey Bryce you ready for the best show of the week?

2:36pm mic_channel:

Forming patrols to spot and chase hawks out of town is another crow behavior I have seen. If you look at a horse straight on, nose first, their face suddenly makes sense. "Hey, you've been grinning at me all along and I just couldn't see it." Why am I making all these fragmented animal observations this week?!

♥ 2:36pm Bryce:

the sound of one face, palming

♥ 2:37pm coelacanth∅:

(from the sounds of it, you were.)

♥ 2:38pm Krys O.:

Just got word from the boss that we're closing at 3 today. Thanks, Bryce!

♥ 2:39pm steveo:

so many comments i'm not making (pats self on shoulder)

♥ 2:39pm Bryce:

mic_c, that's amazing. hadn't heard of that!

krys, i feel like i just related this anecdote the other week, but until a couple years ago, there was a mockingbird that would hang out a few blocks from the station every summer. among their birdcalls, they would still include fragments of that ubiquitous late 90s/early aughts sequence of 7 car alarm sounds. you know the one i mean?

♥ 2:40pm Chris from DC:

There is very little I would not give at the moment to close at 3.

♥ 2:40pm Bryce:

boooooooweeeeep boooooooooweeeeep, anh anh anh anh anh anh, doooo deeee doooo deeee dooo deee—

bwip bwip

♥ 2:40pm coelacanth∅:

all kinds of birds will gang up on raptors and try to chase them away; even little tiny one-bite birds.

♥ 2:41pm Krys O.:

Oh, yes! I know that sequence all too well. And you typed it exactly.

♥ 2:42pm coelacanth∅:

i used to mimic that particular alarm as well. it was never annoying.

♥ 2:42pm Bryce:

THIS ONE

youtu.be...

♥ 2:44pm coelacanth∅:

and the mockingbird alarm
www.youtube.com...

♥ 2:45pm Chris from DC:

First time hearing Stieber. This is great.

♥ 2:45pm Hubig Pie:

Excellent alarm onomatopoeia. I used to hear that one every am when I lived in the 9th ward.

♥ 2:45pm crateslinger:

I heard they also do the more popular cell phone tones in central park.

♥ 2:46pm adrian elaine in mpls:

seconding Chris from DC's comment

♥ 2:46pm coelacanth∅:

third that

2:47pm Adam West Coaster:

I don’t know what Ken has on Bryce, outside of likely some form of tracking device, but this show never disappoints! It must be written into the blood contract.

♥ 2:47pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

what allay'all said. About this.

♥ 2:48pm coelacanth∅:

judging by what i've heard since i got here after 2 i have high hopes for the archive listen

2:50pm John from florham park:

@Adam WC I have heard a bad show on this station, the djs all know what they are doing and they play great stuff, even the reggae on Sunday mornings is pretty good and I really don’t like that kind of music

2:51pm Rory:

Hey no love for Owls? Owls are cool.

2:52pm mic_channel:

I have heard owls, in the middle of the night, but never seen one.

♥ 2:52pm crateslinger:

I hit an owl on my motorcycle in Vermont - well, he hit my helmet. It was like a couch cushion. I saw him flying away in the mirrors.

♥ 2:53pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Thanks for today's presentation, Bryce. No bird stories to tell today, but I spotted a coyote along the road this morning. Maybe the roadrunner was driving the semi of explosives I had just passed.

♥ 2:53pm coelacanth∅:

jeez it's lucky you didn't wipe out.
(you didn't wipe out, did you?)

♥ 2:53pm northguineahills:

Thanks Bryce!...and Stiebler is new to me!

♥ 2:53pm chresti:

What RTD said

♥ 2:54pm Krys O.:

Thanks, really, Bryce! An excellent show.

♥ 2:55pm Bryce:

thanks all! have lovely weeks

♥ 2:55pm crateslinger:

No I didn't wipe out. It was so sudden and I was only doing about 20 on a dirt road. I felt its feathers across my mouth and nose. Kind of greasy it seemed.

2:55pm John from florham park:

You too Bryce

♥ 2:55pm Bryce:

oy yeah....owl-cat friendships just kill me.

ok one last corvid
youtu.be...

♥ 2:55pm adrian elaine in mpls:

thanks Bryce!!!

♥ 2:55pm coelacanth∅:

i got some decent photos of what looked like a snowy owl in the woods during the day. it couldn't hide that easily.

♥ 2:55pm Phillippe Bastille:

@mic my son got up in the middle of the night to walk the dog and there was an owl sitting on top of our lamp post next to the front walk. It stayed around for a photo shoot, even with the flash going off

♥ 2:56pm crateslinger:

When camping, our Chihuahua will dive under my chair as soon as she hears owls at night. Not sure how she knows, but she knows. Great show Bryce!

♥ 2:56pm Phillippe Bastille:

Thank you Bryce. An enjoyable afternoon!

♥ 2:57pm steveo:

thank you Bryce, I've never Stiebled &
thank you Bryce, wonderful show

♥ 2:57pm Chris from DC:

*googles Zwischen den Tönen hoping for a copy*

♥ 2:57pm coelacanth∅:

i see some damn big raptors around here. hoping none of them have the audacity to try to pick up a 35lb dog

2:57pm mic_channel:

The owls will eat the baby bunnies. Could be an owl vs crow rumble there. Thanks Bryce!

♥ 2:58pm coelacanth∅:

Thanks Bryce! have a great weekend
...everyone

♥ 2:58pm steveo:

the cats and the owls get together and reminisce about all the rodents that got away?

♥ 2:58pm sphere:

thanks Bryce

2:59pm P-90:

Thanks, Bryce!

3:01pm John from florham park:

So am I fellow boom boom fans
@Sheliab just saw your newsletter and so glad disaster.was averted
