	♥ 9:16am Joe McG: @Linda Lee: Ha ha!
	9:16am zopa: Swami Joe. What is the origin of all of my many discursive thoughts?
	♥ 9:18am Joe McG: @zopa: My son, close your outer eyes and open your inner eye, and you will see all.
	♥ 9:19am Ken From Hyde Park: Swagami was already taken?
	9:20am Linda Lee: Most blessed Swami: what is written on the playlist inspires me to ask, how can we be 'between' only one thing?
	♥ 9:21am tadpoles: Had to look Ananda Shankar up Joe...nephew of Ravi. I'm sure you've seen the first half of the "Concert For George" where the other Shankars blow every one away. A special set and very moving.
	♥ 9:22am Joe McG: @Linda Lee: We are inside, between, and part of all things. We are one and one is limitless.
	9:22am Linda Lee: oh my gosh!! i got it!! most reverent thanks, O Swami.
	♥ 9:23am Booz: Between this pop set and Bryce's occasional Hindustani/Carnatic blowouts (fairly deep in the tradition), you've proved the infinite energy of the Indian jam.
	9:23am Colleen: Linda Leeeee!!!!
	♥ 9:23am listener Rey: Lead us Maharajoe McGasko!
	9:24am Linda Lee: i now see the entirety of our being. it is like mayonnaise!
	9:25am Linda Lee: how's life, kiddo?
	♥ 9:26am melinda: hiya Linda
	♥ 9:26am Joe McG: @Rey: Ah, but you must lead yourselves. I can only open your eyes. You must see.
	9:27am Linda Lee: hope all's well today, melinda!
	9:28am Linda Lee: that's actually pretty profound there, SwamiJo! :-D
	9:29am annie: i found a version of winamp for mac...today i play. and sew, and it's All-day Fmu Day. sure hope it contunues into the next season. my cup runneth over
	9:29am Linda Lee: 'i'll never see a purple cow, i hope i never see one..' same ditty!
	9:29am JtotheK: This Bill Plummer album rules. Hi Joe, hi everyone.
	9:30am annie: I'd rather see than be one, Linda
	9:30am Linda Lee: ahahaha!! :-D
	9:32am Linda Lee: wait, i got that one wrong. it's: 'i've never seen a purple cow, i hope i never see one..' been a while. :-D
	♥ 9:33am Mick: Shanti. Loving this set and the wisdom from Guru McGasko
	♥ 9:33am Ken From Hyde Park: The ear hears the surface noise. The heart sees what lies beneath.
	♥ 9:34am pantz: Oh Enlightened One, Swami Joe. Could you God make a 45 single so fine even he couldn't play it?
	♥ 9:34am Joe McG: @Ken: You are learning, my son.
	9:34am fleep: Good blueberry morning, you mystical beings, you
	♥ 9:35am Joe McG: @pantz: God is the 45, the 45 is God. That is enlightenment.
	9:35am annie: the whole verse is, I've never seen a purple cow, i never hope to see one. but i can tell you anyhow, i'd rather see than be one. just as silly as "as i was going up the stair, i met a man who wasn't there. he wasn't there again today. i hope to heck he goes away"
	9:36am Linda Lee: @annie ~ yes. always loved that cow visual! :-)
	♥ 9:36am Ken From Hyde Park: Ommmmmm ...
	9:36am fleep: truly, it is said, mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy
	9:37am annie: today's kids ain't got nothing as good as what we had in the 60s
	♥ 9:37am Phillippe Bastille: Good morning Morning Joe and friends!
	♥ 9:38am Yvang: Hi! I feel a pattern...
	9:38am annie: a kid'll eat ivy, too; wouldn't you?
	9:38am Linda Lee: we were very inventive. :-) btw, how much wood would a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood?
	9:39am Linda Lee: .. O Blessed Swami?
	9:39am Rachel Bo Bachel: Beautiful show today, Joe! I said it before and I’ll say it again: your show magically calms down my rather hyper 3-year-old, Rose. It’s quite something to see!
	♥ 9:39am melinda: I love nature music.
	9:39am Rachel Bo Bachel: Also hi Linda Leeee!!
	♥ 9:40am Phillippe Bastille: I will have to listen to this again this evening, when it is more appropriate to smoke my hookah. Hookah smoke and coffee never really worked for me
	9:40am Linda Lee: that's lovely, Rachel!! :-) hi!
	9:41am Rachel Bo Bachel: Philippe Bastille Lol
	♥ 9:42am Phillippe Bastille: I shall join the chorus of Linda Lee greetings. Namaste, my friend
	9:42am northguineahills: ragas and muffins!
	9:43am Linda Lee: Namaste' Phillippe!
	♥ 9:43am Ken From Hyde Park: I suppose purple cows are sacred everywhere.
	9:44am Linda Lee: that's why only some of us can see them. :-)
	♥ 9:46am Mick: Ram Dass movie "Becoming Nobody" coming out soon - at Rubin Museum in NYC, but I think it's playing in lots of places.
	9:47am chresti@ Griffith Park: Hello raggamuffins!
	9:49am Geoff in Ottawa: I am sitting here putting together course material for the high school classes I have to get back to teaching next week, and I could not imagine a better soundtrack. What an awesome start to my last week of summer. Thanks, Joe!
	9:49am Last White Rhino: Swami Joe, Can you recommend an eye drop for my third eye?
	9:51am Brendan: Ssssshhhhhh he’ going to speak
	9:52am Brendan: Yes oh exalted guru
	9:53am Snoochienucci: awesome set
	9:53am Linda Lee: most blessed SwamiJo, you have indeed helped me find the peaceful open space between my ears. most honored thanks.
	9:55am Linda Lee: (humility is the most important attribute of a true guru. so there.)
	9:55am Last White Rhino: I guess Double Dip Recess re-connected you to the purity of your inner child. By the way, any chance to play "Flush the Magical Dragon" by Auntie Pooh and the Porta-Potties?
	9:58am βrian: Joe, I tried out "Funk You Up" (The Sequence) on our five-year old. She really dug it, and has since been breaking out with the "ding, ding, dong" phrase. Thank Bob for the archives.
	9:59am Andrea in Jersey City: Hi Joe!
	10:02am Brendan: Your guest sounds good. Upon hearing him I’ll bet he sounds good too.
	♥ 10:04am Joe McG: @Brian: Cool, nice to hear! @Andrea: Hi! @Brendan: He sounded good. You will hear! :)
	♥ 10:07am Krys O.: I just watched an SCTV episode where Harold Ramis played Swami Bananananda, formerly known as Dennis Peterson. He said he became a swami to pickup girls.
	♥ 10:11am Joe McG: @Krys O: I have a feeling that's why a lot of swamis got into it.
	♥ 10:12am Hoboken Jack: Hello Joe, Krys, HP Ken, and behind the scenes, Mike Sin!
	♥ 10:13am Joe McG: @Jack: How did you know that Mike Sin is behind the curtain, Jack?!
	10:17am Rachel Bo Bachel: Prince Rama!! I think I was at maybe their first show, at some kind of an arts center in Somerville, MA. They are wonderful ladies I love them!!!
	10:18am Rachel Bo Bachel: Krys O. that sounds so good I gotta check that out
	♥ 10:19am queems: new personal theme song
	10:19am Davee: That's quite a stark combination
	10:20am wendy del formaggio: You’re playing my song! Well, except for the bunnyrabbits and milk.

	10:28am Brendan: This cat is spitting some awesome dope rhymes

	10:33am Brendan: Ham and organ
	♥ 10:36am Joe McG: @djsheilab: I shan't tell! ;)
	♥ 10:36am tadpoles: Yes Joe! Not in a rut we've got to get out of!
	10:36am Rachel Bo Bachel: Hi Queemsie!
	10:36am Hugh: Awesome Ruts track! haven't heard this since the 80s. oy
	10:37am whattawino: Love this Ruts track! Saw them at Hurrah and they kicked ass!
	♥ 10:38am Joe McG: "With ANXI-E-TY!!!"
	10:39am Brendan: The enlightened mind sees that the rut is really a groove.
	♥ 10:40am fred: Good morning Joe and listeners. Just back from a long walk with a reading pause in the middle
	10:40am John from Florham park: Love The tunage
	10:40am Rachel Bo Bachel: Anyone else read that Neil Young interview over the wknd? Makes me really appreciate the analog sounds. Yay “Single File”!
	10:41am John from Florham park: @queems hello @Rachel hello again
	♥ 10:42am Joe McG: @fred: Pauses in the middle are so important. Also at the end.
	10:42am John from Florham park: @Rachel I did and as much as I like Neil he comes off as a grouchy old man who is always saying get off my lawn
	♥ 10:42am Mick: @Rachel Bo Bachel where was the Neil Young interview published?
	10:43am emily: Thanks Joe for being here on Monday mornings. Your presence and sets are the balm.
	10:44am Rachel Bo Bachel: John I know right :D Mick: the New York Times Magazine
	♥ 10:44am Joe McG: @emily: That's so sweet of you to say. It's so nice to be here!
	10:44am Rachel Bo Bachel: We get the print edition on the wknds
	10:45am Brendan: A love ‘man-baby’?
	10:46am Rachel Bo Bachel: Joe thanks for the wonderful music this AM! Setting off for the library w/ the kiddos. Til next week!
	10:46am John from Florham park: @Rachel nothing like reading the NYT on Sunday,used to take a whole day
	♥ 10:47am fred: @Joe: My favorite tree is 2.5 miles away, not that I will read in its shade: there's not much of it except underneath, where there is no grass (it's a weird tree)
	♥ 10:48am Joe McG: @Rachel: My pleasure! Read something that's nutritious for your mind and heart.
	♥ 10:49am The Oscar: Been busy working, but TVOD!!!! Also good morning.
	10:50am Hubig Pie: I like my beer cold and my tv loud
	10:50am frenchee: OMG this "the Normal" is so perfect . It's running through my veins for sure!
	♥ 10:51am Brian in UK: Hey Swampy Joe.
	♥ 10:51am Joe McG: @Oscar: I wonder if anyone's every ID'd the sound bites in this record?
	♥ 10:51am Joe McG: @Brian: Could catch on if I stop showering!
	10:52am Davee: Ran out of record there....
	10:52am frenchee: I need to get my paws on the Neil Young interview!
	♥ 10:53am Mick: @Rachel Thanks! Will read tonight. Don't know how I missed it!
	10:53am Davee: The Band of Gold lady
	♥ 10:55am coelacanth∅: good morning Joe, others
	♥ 10:56am tadpoles: Re Neil Young...I think you get a few freebies if you're not a subscriber: www.nytimes.com...
	10:58am MplsCoco: ❤️s Joe! Happy Monday!
	♥ 10:58am Joe McG: Hiya, MplsCoco! :)
	♥ 11:01am Phillippe Bastille: Yikes, just spent the past half hour fixing my Netflix account. Got an email about a suspicious log-in in Russia, then quickly got another saying my password was changed. I have up to date virus definitions (Komodo) and the latest Windows 10 security update. Next thing is I'll find out I voted for Trump without my consent...
	11:02am Lixiviated Life: Yo... Joe
	11:02am renbo: Hey Joe I thought I'd say hi and thank you for spinning such great stuff for such a long time. I'm thinking about changing my name to my listener number.
	♥ 11:03am The Oscar: @PB We found out our Netflix account got hacked because the hacker CREATED HIS OWN USER PROFILE ON OUR ACCOUNT.
	♥ 11:06am Brian in UK: Joe, know that feeling. I just nod my head as if I know what they are talking about.
	♥ 11:06am pantz: If you want a taste of cable but don't want to pay for it, check out Pluto TV. If you have a smart tv you should be able to get the app. There is a Brit Box TV channel that streams nothing but old Dr Who, which is worth it alone.
	♥ 11:07am Phillippe Bastille: @The Oscar that's second level trickery! Hide in plain sight! Scary that they can get your account details, makes you wonder what other logins they have. Time for a password manager...
	♥ 11:07am fred: re: Neil Young: His Pono stuff was dumb, but he has a point about compressed formats. Even though many people now prefer the iPhone sound to live music. Seriously, I had a coworker who was so in love with Apple she'd read actual books through her iPad camera, because it "looked better that way"
	♥ 11:08am coelacanth∅: i have the times square st album. 2 lps. the only thing valuable about that movie.
	♥ 11:10am fred: @Phillippe Bastille: That might be the only time adding a manager has a chance of improving something
	♥ 11:10am coelacanth∅: Phillippe "hide in plain sight" - they learned that from our government
	11:11am Brendan: For my artist depiction, I would like to render Don Felder. Literally.
	♥ 11:15am Joe McG: @Brendan: Ouch! You and Ike both.
	♥ 11:16am Hoboken Jack: Hello Frenchee! Hmm I did not know it was Mike Sin in absentia, I withdraw my hello! :)
	11:16am Brendan: @Joe, we render because we ... ahem....love.
	11:17am Lixiviated Life: For my artist depiction, I would like to fender Don Felder. Literally. Preferably the left front fender.
	♥ 11:17am Joe McG: @Jack: You should've pretended you knew all along and change your name to Psychic Jack and start charging people for readings.
	♥ 11:19am coelacanth∅: L'Life, how to auction off performance art...
	11:21am Mike Sin: @Hoboken Jack — Hello! Please withdraw your withdrawn “hello.” I live in the Monty Hall bathroom, so I’m always here!
	♥ 11:21am Brian in UK: @Mike Sin, thought you looked a little flushed.
	♥ 11:23am fred: Performance idea: bring in a Heavy Metal 7" and a Billy Joel cassingle, and two hammers. Then have Ike and Dan Bodah wear oversized foam gloves and see who smashes his nemesis first
	♥ 11:24am Joe McG: @Mike: Thanks again for engineering the session! It sounds great.
	♥ 11:24am Brian in UK: @fred by doing that it shows that you have some feeling for whatever it is. Never admit that your nemesis exists.
	♥ 11:27am Phillippe Bastille: Oh, ironic coincidence: Trump is on tv now saying that we are better off having Russia inside the tent than not. Dude, they apparently aren't only in my tent, they're well inside the sleeping bag as well.
	♥ 11:28am fred: @Brian in UK: That ship has sailed, especially for Ike
	11:31am lee in dublin: This live set is really beautiful
	♥ 11:33am Joe McG: @lee: Today's show has somehow neatly divided into 3 sections: hippie sitar jams / raucous pop and soul / meditative sounds. I guess something for everyone! I better get some techno on before it's too late.
	11:34am Mike tp: sweet strings
	11:35am Carmichael: Heya Joe and listeners.
	♥ 11:38am pantz: Loo-eez-vill, Joe? I'm gonna check that out but it's pronounced Loo-ah-vull.
	♥ 11:40am Joe McG: By the way, folks, we're having picture problems on our playlists lately, so I can't post photos of the session right now, but I'll post them once we have the bug fixed. @pantz: Oops, you can tell I'm a regular Yankee.
	11:41am karen eliot: great show! loved the live set with isasa.
	♥ 11:45am Joe McG: Thanks, ke, very happy to bring it to you!
	♥ 11:46am fred: @Joe: now that's some groundbreaking experimental techno
	11:46am annie: another great show, joe! thanks!
	11:47am Brendan: On the islands see also Luauville
	11:50am Snoochienucci: killer set joe!
	♥ 11:50am Joe McG: Thx, Snoochie!
	11:50am zopa: Swami Joe. All is impermanent. Thanks for the show.
	11:51am Bob from Poughkeepsie: Great show sounds like over modulation in audio
	♥ 11:52am Joe McG: @zopa: So true. All things must pass, including this radio show. The ghost of it shall live on the archives.
	♥ 11:52am pantz: Great show, Joe! Sorry to be so tetchy about my hometown's pronunciation. I bet the Everly Bros would get it right though.
	11:53am βrian: Y'all probably wonder what a "pop bottle" is.
	♥ 11:53am Mick: really fab show - loved the live set from Isasa
	♥ 11:54am pantz: Everything is a "Coke" in this part of KY.
	♥ 11:54am Joe McG: @pantz: This one's for you!
	♥ 11:55am Krys O.: LOVED this song since I was a kid. I was a John Denver fan in elementary school.
	♥ 11:55am Brian in UK: Internet just fell over. did Alan Munde used to be in Country Gazette? Saw them some tine in the 70s.
	♥ 11:56am Brian in UK: One of Gene Clark's finest moments.
	11:57am βrian: John Denver covered Paradise? Huh.
	♥ 11:57am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting, everybody! See you next week for a Labor Day special. It will be special because I will actually be here! :)
	♥ 11:57am Krys O.: Yup, on the Rocky Mountain High album.
	♥ 11:58am Krys O.: I unfortunately did not know Prine back then, but John Denver was great, IMO.
	11:58am John from Florham park: Wow joe great songs today
	♥ 11:58am Krys O.: Thanks, Joe!
	11:59am Brendan: Thanks Joe!
	♥ 11:59am fred: Thanks Joe
	♥ 11:59am Brian in UK: Good mix as ever, Joe.
	11:59am Snoochienucci: geez we have to wait a whole nother week for more Mcgasko?!?!?! what will we do with ourselves?
	11:59am Andrea in Jersey City: Oh no the show is over!
	11:59am northguineahills: Thanks, Joe!

	9:16am zopa: Swami Joe. What is the origin of all of my many discursive thoughts?
	♥ 9:18am Joe McG: @zopa: My son, close your outer eyes and open your inner eye, and you will see all.
	♥ 9:19am Ken From Hyde Park: Swagami was already taken?
	9:20am Linda Lee: Most blessed Swami: what is written on the playlist inspires me to ask, how can we be 'between' only one thing?
	♥ 9:21am tadpoles: Had to look Ananda Shankar up Joe...nephew of Ravi. I'm sure you've seen the first half of the "Concert For George" where the other Shankars blow every one away. A special set and very moving.
	♥ 9:22am Joe McG: @Linda Lee: We are inside, between, and part of all things. We are one and one is limitless.
	9:22am Linda Lee: oh my gosh!! i got it!! most reverent thanks, O Swami.
	♥ 9:23am Booz: Between this pop set and Bryce's occasional Hindustani/Carnatic blowouts (fairly deep in the tradition), you've proved the infinite energy of the Indian jam.
	9:23am Colleen: Linda Leeeee!!!!
	♥ 9:23am listener Rey: Lead us Maharajoe McGasko!
	9:24am Linda Lee: i now see the entirety of our being. it is like mayonnaise!

	9:27am Linda Lee: hope all's well today, melinda!
	9:28am Linda Lee: that's actually pretty profound there, SwamiJo! :-D

	9:29am Linda Lee: 'i'll never see a purple cow, i hope i never see one..' same ditty!
	9:29am JtotheK: This Bill Plummer album rules. Hi Joe, hi everyone.
	9:30am annie: I'd rather see than be one, Linda
	9:30am Linda Lee: ahahaha!! :-D
	9:32am Linda Lee: wait, i got that one wrong. it's: 'i've never seen a purple cow, i hope i never see one..' been a while. :-D
	♥ 9:33am Mick: Shanti. Loving this set and the wisdom from Guru McGasko
	♥ 9:33am Ken From Hyde Park: The ear hears the surface noise. The heart sees what lies beneath.
	♥ 9:34am pantz: Oh Enlightened One, Swami Joe. Could you God make a 45 single so fine even he couldn't play it?
	♥ 9:34am Joe McG: @Ken: You are learning, my son.
	9:34am fleep: Good blueberry morning, you mystical beings, you
	♥ 9:35am Joe McG: @pantz: God is the 45, the 45 is God. That is enlightenment.
	9:35am annie: the whole verse is, I've never seen a purple cow, i never hope to see one. but i can tell you anyhow, i'd rather see than be one. just as silly as "as i was going up the stair, i met a man who wasn't there. he wasn't there again today. i hope to heck he goes away"
	9:36am Linda Lee: @annie ~ yes. always loved that cow visual! :-)
	♥ 9:36am Ken From Hyde Park: Ommmmmm ...
	9:36am fleep: truly, it is said, mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy
	9:37am annie: today's kids ain't got nothing as good as what we had in the 60s
	♥ 9:37am Phillippe Bastille: Good morning Morning Joe and friends!
	♥ 9:38am Yvang: Hi! I feel a pattern...
	9:38am annie: a kid'll eat ivy, too; wouldn't you?
	9:38am Linda Lee: we were very inventive. :-) btw, how much wood would a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood?
	9:39am Linda Lee: .. O Blessed Swami?
	9:39am Rachel Bo Bachel: Beautiful show today, Joe! I said it before and I’ll say it again: your show magically calms down my rather hyper 3-year-old, Rose. It’s quite something to see!
	♥ 9:39am melinda: I love nature music.
	9:39am Rachel Bo Bachel: Also hi Linda Leeee!!
	♥ 9:40am Phillippe Bastille: I will have to listen to this again this evening, when it is more appropriate to smoke my hookah. Hookah smoke and coffee never really worked for me
	9:40am Linda Lee: that's lovely, Rachel!! :-) hi!
	9:41am Rachel Bo Bachel: Philippe Bastille Lol
	♥ 9:42am Phillippe Bastille: I shall join the chorus of Linda Lee greetings. Namaste, my friend
	9:42am northguineahills: ragas and muffins!
	9:43am Linda Lee: Namaste' Phillippe!
	♥ 9:43am Ken From Hyde Park: I suppose purple cows are sacred everywhere.
	9:44am Linda Lee: that's why only some of us can see them. :-)
	♥ 9:46am Mick: Ram Dass movie "Becoming Nobody" coming out soon - at Rubin Museum in NYC, but I think it's playing in lots of places.
	9:47am chresti@ Griffith Park: Hello raggamuffins!
	9:49am Geoff in Ottawa: I am sitting here putting together course material for the high school classes I have to get back to teaching next week, and I could not imagine a better soundtrack. What an awesome start to my last week of summer. Thanks, Joe!
	9:49am Last White Rhino: Swami Joe, Can you recommend an eye drop for my third eye?
	9:51am Brendan: Ssssshhhhhh he’ going to speak
	9:52am Brendan: Yes oh exalted guru
	9:53am Snoochienucci: awesome set
	9:53am Linda Lee: most blessed SwamiJo, you have indeed helped me find the peaceful open space between my ears. most honored thanks.
	9:55am Linda Lee: (humility is the most important attribute of a true guru. so there.)
	9:55am Last White Rhino: I guess Double Dip Recess re-connected you to the purity of your inner child. By the way, any chance to play "Flush the Magical Dragon" by Auntie Pooh and the Porta-Potties?
	9:58am βrian: Joe, I tried out "Funk You Up" (The Sequence) on our five-year old. She really dug it, and has since been breaking out with the "ding, ding, dong" phrase. Thank Bob for the archives.
	9:59am Andrea in Jersey City: Hi Joe!
	10:02am Brendan: Your guest sounds good. Upon hearing him I’ll bet he sounds good too.
	♥ 10:04am Joe McG: @Brian: Cool, nice to hear! @Andrea: Hi! @Brendan: He sounded good. You will hear! :)
	♥ 10:07am Krys O.: I just watched an SCTV episode where Harold Ramis played Swami Bananananda, formerly known as Dennis Peterson. He said he became a swami to pickup girls.
	♥ 10:11am Joe McG: @Krys O: I have a feeling that's why a lot of swamis got into it.
	♥ 10:12am Hoboken Jack: Hello Joe, Krys, HP Ken, and behind the scenes, Mike Sin!
	♥ 10:13am Joe McG: @Jack: How did you know that Mike Sin is behind the curtain, Jack?!
	10:17am Rachel Bo Bachel: Prince Rama!! I think I was at maybe their first show, at some kind of an arts center in Somerville, MA. They are wonderful ladies I love them!!!
	10:18am Rachel Bo Bachel: Krys O. that sounds so good I gotta check that out
	♥ 10:19am queems: new personal theme song
	10:19am Davee: That's quite a stark combination
	10:20am wendy del formaggio: You’re playing my song! Well, except for the bunnyrabbits and milk.

	10:23am Mike tp: this is what happens when there's some nice herb to be puffed..
	10:23am karen eliot: seitan saves! good morning y’all!

	10:28am Brendan: This cat is spitting some awesome dope rhymes
	10:31am djsheilab: I do love the very druggy vibe of this whole show. What have you been up to this weekend, Joe?!!!
	10:33am Brendan: Ham and organ
	♥ 10:36am Joe McG: @djsheilab: I shan't tell! ;)
	♥ 10:36am tadpoles: Yes Joe! Not in a rut we've got to get out of!
	10:36am Rachel Bo Bachel: Hi Queemsie!
	10:36am Hugh: Awesome Ruts track! haven't heard this since the 80s. oy
	10:37am whattawino: Love this Ruts track! Saw them at Hurrah and they kicked ass!
	♥ 10:38am Joe McG: "With ANXI-E-TY!!!"
	10:39am Brendan: The enlightened mind sees that the rut is really a groove.
	♥ 10:40am fred: Good morning Joe and listeners. Just back from a long walk with a reading pause in the middle
	10:40am John from Florham park: Love The tunage
	10:40am Rachel Bo Bachel: Anyone else read that Neil Young interview over the wknd? Makes me really appreciate the analog sounds. Yay “Single File”!
	10:41am John from Florham park: @queems hello @Rachel hello again
	♥ 10:42am Joe McG: @fred: Pauses in the middle are so important. Also at the end.
	10:42am John from Florham park: @Rachel I did and as much as I like Neil he comes off as a grouchy old man who is always saying get off my lawn
	♥ 10:42am Mick: @Rachel Bo Bachel where was the Neil Young interview published?
	10:43am emily: Thanks Joe for being here on Monday mornings. Your presence and sets are the balm.
	10:44am Rachel Bo Bachel: John I know right :D Mick: the New York Times Magazine
	♥ 10:44am Joe McG: @emily: That's so sweet of you to say. It's so nice to be here!
	10:44am Rachel Bo Bachel: We get the print edition on the wknds
	10:45am Brendan: A love ‘man-baby’?
	10:46am Rachel Bo Bachel: Joe thanks for the wonderful music this AM! Setting off for the library w/ the kiddos. Til next week!
	10:46am John from Florham park: @Rachel nothing like reading the NYT on Sunday,used to take a whole day
	♥ 10:47am fred: @Joe: My favorite tree is 2.5 miles away, not that I will read in its shade: there's not much of it except underneath, where there is no grass (it's a weird tree)
	♥ 10:48am Joe McG: @Rachel: My pleasure! Read something that's nutritious for your mind and heart.
	♥ 10:49am The Oscar: Been busy working, but TVOD!!!! Also good morning.
	10:50am Hubig Pie: I like my beer cold and my tv loud
	10:50am frenchee: OMG this "the Normal" is so perfect . It's running through my veins for sure!
	♥ 10:51am Brian in UK: Hey Swampy Joe.
	♥ 10:51am Joe McG: @Oscar: I wonder if anyone's every ID'd the sound bites in this record?
	♥ 10:51am Joe McG: @Brian: Could catch on if I stop showering!
	10:52am Davee: Ran out of record there....
	10:52am frenchee: I need to get my paws on the Neil Young interview!
	♥ 10:53am Mick: @Rachel Thanks! Will read tonight. Don't know how I missed it!
	10:53am Davee: The Band of Gold lady
	♥ 10:55am coelacanth∅: good morning Joe, others
	♥ 10:56am tadpoles: Re Neil Young...I think you get a few freebies if you're not a subscriber: www.nytimes.com...
	10:58am MplsCoco: ❤️s Joe! Happy Monday!
	♥ 10:58am Joe McG: Hiya, MplsCoco! :)
	♥ 11:01am Phillippe Bastille: Yikes, just spent the past half hour fixing my Netflix account. Got an email about a suspicious log-in in Russia, then quickly got another saying my password was changed. I have up to date virus definitions (Komodo) and the latest Windows 10 security update. Next thing is I'll find out I voted for Trump without my consent...
	11:02am Lixiviated Life: Yo... Joe
	11:02am renbo: Hey Joe I thought I'd say hi and thank you for spinning such great stuff for such a long time. I'm thinking about changing my name to my listener number.
	♥ 11:03am The Oscar: @PB We found out our Netflix account got hacked because the hacker CREATED HIS OWN USER PROFILE ON OUR ACCOUNT.
	♥ 11:06am Brian in UK: Joe, know that feeling. I just nod my head as if I know what they are talking about.
	♥ 11:06am pantz: If you want a taste of cable but don't want to pay for it, check out Pluto TV. If you have a smart tv you should be able to get the app. There is a Brit Box TV channel that streams nothing but old Dr Who, which is worth it alone.
	♥ 11:07am Phillippe Bastille: @The Oscar that's second level trickery! Hide in plain sight! Scary that they can get your account details, makes you wonder what other logins they have. Time for a password manager...
	♥ 11:07am fred: re: Neil Young: His Pono stuff was dumb, but he has a point about compressed formats. Even though many people now prefer the iPhone sound to live music. Seriously, I had a coworker who was so in love with Apple she'd read actual books through her iPad camera, because it "looked better that way"
	♥ 11:08am coelacanth∅: i have the times square st album. 2 lps. the only thing valuable about that movie.
	♥ 11:10am fred: @Phillippe Bastille: That might be the only time adding a manager has a chance of improving something
	♥ 11:10am coelacanth∅: Phillippe "hide in plain sight" - they learned that from our government
	11:11am Brendan: For my artist depiction, I would like to render Don Felder. Literally.
	♥ 11:15am Joe McG: @Brendan: Ouch! You and Ike both.
	♥ 11:16am Hoboken Jack: Hello Frenchee! Hmm I did not know it was Mike Sin in absentia, I withdraw my hello! :)
	11:16am Brendan: @Joe, we render because we ... ahem....love.
	11:17am Lixiviated Life: For my artist depiction, I would like to fender Don Felder. Literally. Preferably the left front fender.
	♥ 11:17am Joe McG: @Jack: You should've pretended you knew all along and change your name to Psychic Jack and start charging people for readings.
	♥ 11:19am coelacanth∅: L'Life, how to auction off performance art...
	11:21am Mike Sin: @Hoboken Jack — Hello! Please withdraw your withdrawn “hello.” I live in the Monty Hall bathroom, so I’m always here!
	♥ 11:21am Brian in UK: @Mike Sin, thought you looked a little flushed.
	♥ 11:23am fred: Performance idea: bring in a Heavy Metal 7" and a Billy Joel cassingle, and two hammers. Then have Ike and Dan Bodah wear oversized foam gloves and see who smashes his nemesis first
	♥ 11:24am Joe McG: @Mike: Thanks again for engineering the session! It sounds great.
	♥ 11:24am Brian in UK: @fred by doing that it shows that you have some feeling for whatever it is. Never admit that your nemesis exists.
	♥ 11:27am Phillippe Bastille: Oh, ironic coincidence: Trump is on tv now saying that we are better off having Russia inside the tent than not. Dude, they apparently aren't only in my tent, they're well inside the sleeping bag as well.
	♥ 11:28am fred: @Brian in UK: That ship has sailed, especially for Ike
	11:31am lee in dublin: This live set is really beautiful
	♥ 11:33am Joe McG: @lee: Today's show has somehow neatly divided into 3 sections: hippie sitar jams / raucous pop and soul / meditative sounds. I guess something for everyone! I better get some techno on before it's too late.
	11:34am Mike tp: sweet strings
	11:35am Carmichael: Heya Joe and listeners.
	♥ 11:38am pantz: Loo-eez-vill, Joe? I'm gonna check that out but it's pronounced Loo-ah-vull.
	♥ 11:40am Joe McG: By the way, folks, we're having picture problems on our playlists lately, so I can't post photos of the session right now, but I'll post them once we have the bug fixed. @pantz: Oops, you can tell I'm a regular Yankee.
	11:41am karen eliot: great show! loved the live set with isasa.
	♥ 11:45am Joe McG: Thanks, ke, very happy to bring it to you!
	♥ 11:46am fred: @Joe: now that's some groundbreaking experimental techno
	11:46am annie: another great show, joe! thanks!
	11:47am Brendan: On the islands see also Luauville
	11:50am Snoochienucci: killer set joe!
	♥ 11:50am Joe McG: Thx, Snoochie!
	11:50am zopa: Swami Joe. All is impermanent. Thanks for the show.
	11:51am Bob from Poughkeepsie: Great show sounds like over modulation in audio
	♥ 11:52am Joe McG: @zopa: So true. All things must pass, including this radio show. The ghost of it shall live on the archives.
	♥ 11:52am pantz: Great show, Joe! Sorry to be so tetchy about my hometown's pronunciation. I bet the Everly Bros would get it right though.
	11:53am βrian: Y'all probably wonder what a "pop bottle" is.
	♥ 11:53am Mick: really fab show - loved the live set from Isasa
	♥ 11:54am pantz: Everything is a "Coke" in this part of KY.
	♥ 11:54am Joe McG: @pantz: This one's for you!
	♥ 11:55am Krys O.: LOVED this song since I was a kid. I was a John Denver fan in elementary school.
	♥ 11:55am Brian in UK: Internet just fell over. did Alan Munde used to be in Country Gazette? Saw them some tine in the 70s.
	♥ 11:56am Brian in UK: One of Gene Clark's finest moments.
	11:57am βrian: John Denver covered Paradise? Huh.
	♥ 11:57am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting, everybody! See you next week for a Labor Day special. It will be special because I will actually be here! :)
	♥ 11:57am Krys O.: Yup, on the Rocky Mountain High album.
	♥ 11:58am Krys O.: I unfortunately did not know Prine back then, but John Denver was great, IMO.
	11:58am John from Florham park: Wow joe great songs today
	♥ 11:58am Krys O.: Thanks, Joe!
	11:59am Brendan: Thanks Joe!
	♥ 11:59am fred: Thanks Joe
	♥ 11:59am Brian in UK: Good mix as ever, Joe.
	11:59am Snoochienucci: geez we have to wait a whole nother week for more Mcgasko?!?!?! what will we do with ourselves?
	11:59am Andrea in Jersey City: Oh no the show is over!
