WFMU: Irwin Chusid: Playlist from October 30, 2019

Listener comments!
	👻 3:00pm βrian: Ah, bring on the #FF9700.
	3:01pm Hubig Pie: Beer, weed and children are indeed a lethal mix
	3:01pm Pierre Delecto: I spent last night in a spaceship. I'll never do that again. The food was awful.
	3:02pm Hubig Pie: Taste buds don't work in zero gravity
	3:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mmm ...Bop.
	3:03pm Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: How they get anywhere with no feet is beyond my comprehension. Must be the stimulants?
	👻 3:04pm βrian: Is that child wearing yellow shoes or ... ?
	3:04pm holland oats: babatman
	3:06pm Phillippe Bastille: There was a street sign in my old neighborhood that read "Watch Children". Just that. No guideliness on how long, what to do if there were no children to watch, nor any cautionary legal advice if you watch too long
	👻 3:07pm βrian: Not "Watch, Children!"?
	3:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...If you don't tell your Cats about The Jazzes ...Who Will...
	3:08pm Pierre Delecto: I believe that all God's children live in a yellow submarine.
	3:08pm Phillippe Bastille: Nope, just like this one: www.usa-traffic-signs.com...
	3:08pm Spankyflop: The sign is actually for the HBO prequel to watchmen.
	3:08pm Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: Phillippe Bastille, I believe it would be HOW you watched, not how long.
	3:09pm berbo: "eye-talian wine its too bad you're not mine" did I get that right?
	3:09pm Phillippe Bastille: @Itzall I think you're on to something there...
	👻 3:10pm Alison Porchnik: I think Pierre Delecto is a bot. Irwin's been hacked!
	3:11pm spodiodi: listening cautiously
	3:13pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): howdy irwin + all!
	3:15pm Phillippe Bastille: No more freeform jazz?
	3:15pm adampsyche: AMANDA
	3:15pm Roberto: My 87-year-old father-in-law is a recent convert to the Church of Amanda.
	👻 3:15pm βrian: What is Amanda's last name?
	3:16pm Roberto: What was it? Whitt, I think.
	👻 3:16pm AnAnonymousParty: Huggenseek
	3:16pm rdb: Amanda shreds
	3:16pm Irwin: Amanda Whitt
	3:17pm olivia: PLEDGE FOR AMANDA!
	3:17pm Asheville Jon: AMANDA!!!! oh thank you Irwin, I really needed this today.
	3:17pm Denise in DC (she/her): OMG, it's the Amanda!
	3:17pm pledge: Amanda Pow Erchild
	3:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ..child w/ pot...
	3:17pm queems: amanda is killin it
	3:17pm Phillippe Bastille: Is there a cover of Heavy Metal by Amanda out there? Because there should be.
	3:17pm Roberto: How sad is it that I knew that?
	👻 3:17pm G: The arrangements on Amanda's tracks are especially impressive!
	3:17pm Asheville Jon: LOTS of Amanda stuff on youtube, under user name: Jerserf
	3:19pm Phillippe Bastille: I thought her last name was Hugginkiss
	3:19pm Asheville Jon: you must click on my avatar!
	👻 3:20pm Ken From Hyde Park: Don't pull on Superman's cape Don't spit into the wind Don't mess with the power child!
	3:20pm Beetlemuse: Worship Me! I like it :) very unique audio
	3:23pm Denise in DC (she/her): Roberto, I don't find it sad, I find it impressive.
	3:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: She has great taste in trax ...great dynamix ...all true...
	3:24pm adampsyche: Asheville Jon you just canceled any productivity i would have had today
	3:25pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: good afternoon IRWIN and olivia! happy pre halloween! will you be going to the parade tomorrow? and as what?
	3:25pm Roberto: Yeah that's pretty much North Hollywood for you.
	3:27pm kotrunga: Who is Amanda...?
	3:27pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: WOW!!! 44 years on wfmu irwin!
	👻 3:28pm βrian: How many watts was WFMU back in the 70s?
	3:28pm austin: i will pledge for more amanda
	3:29pm holland oats: loving this convo - RSM!!!
	3:30pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: i called irwin 10 yts ago and pleaded with him to stop playing amanda. he didnt and that day back in may 2009 i had a nervous breakdown and had to be hospitalised.
	👻 3:31pm βrian: www.flickr.com...
	3:31pm brainiac: I had a great email interaction with Jody Whitt this week. What a great guy!
	👻 3:33pm G: "How many watts was WFMU back in the 70s?" I thought they used a crystal set.
	3:33pm Phillippe Bastille: I love the Florida panhandle. Beautiful beaches. And Air Force jets. Lots of jets.
	3:33pm Listener Robert: I'm guilty of being annoyed. Thought it was really cute for Irwin to play her for a while as irritainment (His coinage?), but got fed up after a while.
	3:35pm brainiac: Jody said he's got MORE in the vault! I am over the moon.
	3:36pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: im heavily medicated today prozac/abilify/trazodone. so hearing amanda wont send me to the psych ward at st barnabus hosp.
	3:36pm Pierre Delecto: Does anyone want to hear what I did last weekend?
	3:37pm Listener Robert: Like Philip, I lived in the Bronx at the time. I managed to avoid the nut hatch somehow.
	3:38pm PJ: is Hatchie the same as Waxahatchie, or are these different artists?
	3:39pm olivia: different artists PJ but i love 'em both!
	3:40pm olivia: We got 3 amanda pledges! Waiting for 2 more so that Irwin can play another AMANDA track!
	3:40pm Jeff Moore: Sometimes I'm astounded when there are people in this community unfamiliar with The Power Child. One WFMU DJ (whom I won't name) played something with a particularly gutteral energetic cookie-monster vocal on his one-minute show, and I posted a comment observing that it sounded a lot like Amanda. He quietly deleted the comment, to save Amanda Nazario from insult. Because that's apparently the only Amanda he knew of.
	3:40pm PJ: @Olivia: I am digging the Hatchie, didn't want to go down the wrong rabbit hole, but thanks to your comment maybe I will explore both
	👻 3:41pm G: Blast from the past, this Edwards. Early 72? Probably haven't heard it since then...
	3:42pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: if your mother just died? and your grieving trying to heal? i suggest not listening to irwins show. word to the wise.
	3:43pm olivia: that's 4 amanda pledge! JUST 1 MORE and we hear another amanda track!
	3:44pm Phillippe Bastille: Like Phillip, I am also on trazodone
	3:44pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: im ready IRWIN. GO FOR IT. lets have the whole show dedicated to amanda
	3:45pm Beetlemuse: I just did the pledge thingy :)
	3:45pm Listener Robert: Jeff, then R. Stevie Moore must've been promoting Amanda during the time both he and Jim Price were away from WFMU. It's hard to believe he would've been kept away from Amanda otherwise.
	👻 3:46pm βrian: "A relatively rare, but dramatic, side effect associated with trazodone is priapism."
	3:47pm Phillippe Bastille: @Brian I can testify that it does not affect everyone
	3:50pm sphere: hullo
	👻 3:52pm βrian: A cardigan and a fedora?
	3:53pm frenchee: he wore a vintage gabardine shirt and cool hat. I'll bet
	3:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...once was a prior aphorism ...that cautioned the children re priapism...
	3:54pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): irwin? a hippie? i dont believe it :p
	3:55pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: WOW! irwin is approaching his 80's and hes still on WFMU. now im impressed!
	3:56pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: i was 9. in 1976
	3:57pm Irwin: Listener Phil -- check your math.
	3:58pm Pierre Delecto: I'll give you $500 for that frog.
	3:58pm Ike: The other Ike is an Amanda fan?!? Weird. I’m not into it (though she is not as bad as Don Felder for sure).
	3:58pm adampsyche: I was born in 1976!
	3:58pm brainiac: A M A N D A! A M A N D A! A M A N D A!
	3:58pm adampsyche: ohhhhhhhhhh wow this one
	3:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Amanda, Cookie Monster & Weird Al walk into a bar ...Daniel Johnston is bartender - & The Shaggs are playing...
	4:00pm Beetlemuse: Ad for MAD magazine :)
	4:00pm BH: the lyrics are tremendous here
	4:00pm Listener Robert: You're still APPROACHING your 80s, just from a greater distance than Phillip might think. BTW, I'm 65.
	4:00pm olivia: 3 new amanda pledges! 2 more pledges til a NEW amanda track!
	4:01pm Yes: this is a delight
	4:01pm devoid.davy: Imagine all the tapes out there recorded by bored teenagers with Casios
	4:01pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: i just past 52 myself. born in 1967
	4:01pm drew: Amanda is the Voivod of Irwin?
	4:02pm iiibeat: I want to up my pledge by 5$ per month . . So from 15$ to 20$ . . Unfortunately, I don't know how to make that happen, at this point.
	4:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @drew: ding ding
	4:02pm olivia: @iiibeat - you can email UP@wfmu.org to up your monthly pledge
	4:03pm iiibeat: Okay. Sweet. Thanks. Will do.
	4:04pm olivia: c'mon people! irwin pulled out another Amanda CD and I really wanna hear it
	4:05pm Colleen: Fun show you guys!
	4:06pm Phillippe Bastille: sweet cover
	4:08pm iiibeat: I was just notified by dvd.com that they've shipped Hellraiser to me . . Spooky man.
	4:11pm John from Florham park: Hello fellow Irwin fans
	4:11pm brainiac: I have been a FMU listener since the mid-eighties. I wish to commit myself.
	4:13pm brainiac: Thanks for the shout out Olivia. I feel reborn.
	4:13pm John from Florham park: @colleen afternoon
	👻 4:14pm Alison Porchnik: Co Tah Tee
	4:15pm John from Florham park: This is going to sound like a dumb question but who is Amanda
	4:16pm brainiac: Simply put, John, AMANDA is your god. Bow to her.
	4:16pm Beetlemuse: she is the power child, worship her! you must worship her!
	4:17pm brainiac: Kneel before her
	4:17pm John from Florham park: Felder is my god
	4:17pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): so much untapped WFMU lore! keep the storytime going
	4:18pm Beetlemuse: it is a chain I looked it up north AL and in TN
	4:19pm Denise in DC (she/her): Whitt's is indeed a chain. I looked it up when Irwin and Olivia first mentioned it.
	4:19pm brainiac: Stan looks exactly the same today as he did then
	4:19pm joechrismorris: gotta love any Soft Boys cover!
	4:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: CAUTION 'POSTGRADUATES'
	4:22pm Beetlemuse: WFMU moves in and behold... gentrification
	4:23pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): @revolution rabbit: WARNING: METH HEADS AND DRUNK UNDERGRADS
	4:24pm queems: yeah his karaoke was wild
	4:25pm John from Florham park: Afternoon Queems
	4:26pm queems: howdy @john
	4:27pm Listener Robert: That's what's impressed me lately about Glen Jones's program: His music selections mostly bore me; they're not bad, just too common. But starting a while after Burnsy died, Jonesy started talking about the music in ways that made it interesting. I always knew he COULD do that, from listening to his erstwhile interview program, but now I appreciate his actually doing it.
	4:28pm Pierre Delecto: On a scale of one to ten, I live my life in a constant state of three.
	👻 4:29pm Alison Porchnik: Bot alert
	4:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Friends - WFMU is 10Xs other stations on 1/10th the budget. I forgot to get a career - & I do the minimal amount automatically per month ('Swag For Life'). If I can do that much - ain't nobody can't do it.
	4:30pm olivia: we're a bit stuck at the moment... give us a push towards our goal!
	4:31pm olivia: 1 more amanda pledge will get us another one of her songs!
	4:31pm Phillippe Bastille: I appreciated that FMU historical roadmap, Irwin. That's some pretty good recall for a man almost in his 80s
	4:33pm John from Florham park: @Phillippe if you can watch sex and broadcasting it’s about Ken and WFMU
	4:34pm Phillippe Bastille: That's kind of a scary title, JFFP.
	4:34pm Irwin: A pledge as low as $10 will enable more Amanda.
	4:35pm Laura L: @ Phillippe--Now, don't get spry Irwin Chusid confused with the Old Codger!
	4:36pm Phillippe Bastille: They're different people?
	4:37pm brainiac: 100 quatloos for an Old Codger appearance (a Halloween seance perhaps)
	4:38pm Pierre Delecto: Forgive me if I refrain from commenting in the next few minutes. I'm in the middle of a pretty AMAZING thought process, if I do say so myself, and I am saying it. Myself, that is.
	4:40pm John from Florham park: @Philippe not really that scary
	4:40pm Listener Robert: Yesterday channeled Tom Carvel sounded like the Old Codger.
	4:45pm brainiac: As Asheville Jon would tell you, AMANDA LOVES YOU.
	4:46pm Laura L: You never know, maybe the Old Codger's hiding out in the record library... I don't know what his feelings are about Amanda.
	4:47pm MG: I can't.
	4:47pm Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: This song makes me crave pork rinds
	4:47pm Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: -more than usual.
	4:47pm Listener Robert: This business of interviewing the old-timer regarding the history of an institution reminds me of a couple days ago, when somebody from California phone-interviewed me on my role in the Howard Stern for governor of NY affair of 1994. I managed to steer the last hour of the interview onto "Lost".
	4:48pm John from Florham park: People pledged to listen to this
	4:49pm Beetlemuse: damn right we did
	4:49pm olivia: More Amanda!!!
	4:49pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): @John you know, i found it grating at first, but it has grown on me. like a tumor.
	4:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Clamorous Life
	4:50pm John from Florham park: @Lunchbox I really don’t know what to make of this
	4:51pm Honeybear: we hear you, amanda!
	4:51pm DroneTree: I saw a small girl named Sadie perform at the Cropped Out festival 2018... this Amanda reminds me of that.
	4:51pm Kat in Chicago: Amanda makes me happy
	4:51pm brainiac: @RevRabNov63: hiLARious!
	4:52pm BH: Anti-Amanda votes being counted for the Amanda fund reminds me of people interpreting ballots during recounts.
	4:52pm John from Florham park: @kat I guess Amanda is an acquired taste
	4:54pm brainiac: @Irwin wasn't "Metropolitan Mama" from the Primitive Swagger cassette?
	4:54pm Denise in DC (she/her): Oh, I haven't heard this gem in decades!
	4:54pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): @John amanda is just one of the many artists that Irwin has become the defacto archivist/historian for. he produced a reissue for the shaggs, who some people have dubbed the worlds worst band. Despite that, both the shaggs and amanda have such an earnest charm to them that I cant help but love them. even if its hard on the ears sometimes.
	4:54pm laughingacademy: OH MY GOD, I've heard of "Dropkick Me, Jesus" but I've never actually heard the song until now.
	4:56pm berbo: The entire Bobby Bare catalog needs more public exposure.
	4:57pm John from Florham park: @Lunchbox you have a point there, BTW love triple j from your neck of the woods
	4:58pm olivia: we've got some pledges in the last couple of minutes, but only ONE is an Amanda pledge. is nobody else waiting for a new Amanda tune?!
	4:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Irwin literally wrote the literary book on Outsider Music ...coined the term in fact correct me if ignorant...
	5:00pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): @John triple J is pretty great for government funded radio. they definitely influenced my taste in music, listened to them a lot growing up. have you listened to their "like a version" series online where they get famous artists to come in and cover their favourite songs?
	5:00pm pledge: A must-see clip for all Amanda fans out there: The Amanda Show https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBr0GuSf880
	5:00pm yippie: any martini garnish in the studio today?
	5:00pm Carmichael: Songs in the Key of Z. At finer bookstores everywhere (includes CD).
	5:00pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): @revolution rabbit yes he did! He also released a couple compilation albums on the matter called "Songs in the Key of Z"
	5:00pm berbo: "Boy named Sue"!!!
	5:01pm Kat in Chicago: Looked it up. Guy named Paul Craft.
	5:01pm Roberto: There's an entire Uncle Michael program of Shel Silverstein songs from earlier this year.
	5:01pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): @Charmichael jinx!
	5:01pm clearfluidz666: Delbert McClinton
	👻 5:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: Shooby Taylor would be another example of Irwin's curations.
	5:01pm flashbazbo: Shel wrote all the lyrics for dr hook. Except for a cover or two
	5:01pm Mick: Shel Silverstein wrote GREAT songs, but not Dropkick me Jesus. That was Paul Craft
	5:01pm Denise in DC (she/her): Shel Silverstein wrote tons of songs. www.famousfix.com...
	5:02pm aratuk: "The Cover of the Rolling Stone" is probably Shel Silverstein's best-known song.
	5:02pm andy the painter: oh man....never caught the lyric “i’ve got the will, and you’ve got the toe” in Drop Kick Me Jesus. masterful.
	5:02pm Otis Fodder: Hi Irwin and Olivia and AMANDA!
	5:03pm Kat in Chicago: I don't have a job right now. How much I gotta throw in for more Amanda?
	5:03pm Laura L: Yay Mike Lupica. And hi Otis!
	5:04pm Otis Fodder: Hi Laura and oh hi Kat!
	5:04pm aratuk: There's a great album of Shel Silverstein covers called "Twistable, Turnable Man" with the Pixies, John Prine, Andrew Bird
	5:04pm Kat in Chicago: I see you got your pumpkin, Otis :)
	5:04pm John from Florham park: @Lunchbox never did listen to that part of triple j
	5:05pm Otis Fodder: I did! I got my punkin. But my radio disappeared, so maybe my punkin ate it and will barf it back out into my signature next week.
	5:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hell Silverstein wrote 'Boy Names Sue'.
	5:06pm Kat in Chicago: If it doesn't come back, let the authorities know. Mine disappeared once like that.
	5:06pm Denise in DC (she/her): OTIS!!!
	👻 5:07pm Ben: My 2019 car didnt come with a CD player and I was bummed out. also the Playstation 4 can't play CDs
	5:07pm Otis Fodder: Hi Denise. Flipped over from Sheena's to hear some of my ol' pal Irwin and the awesome Olivia. Together! Today!
	5:08pm Denise in DC (she/her): BTW, I just bought a 2016 car, and it has a CD player.
	5:09pm adampsyche: am i the only one who hears what sounds like snoring in the background? or are my headphones going?
	5:10pm Otis Fodder: Tell an Amanda Fairy Tale, in song.
	5:10pm Denise in DC (she/her): Hey, how do people get the pumpkins? Is it like being a Top Commenter on Facebook?
	5:10pm Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: EVERY physical medium makes a comeback if it deserves to. CDs are convenient as hell but so is ripping a few hundred to a flash drive and taking that with you in your car/etc.
	5:10pm brainiac: @adam I keep mistaking it for my phone
	5:11pm Kat in Chicago: The pumpkins show that you pledged to the October Hellraiser
	5:11pm John from Florham park: @Olivia about Amanda oh HELL NO
	5:11pm Denise in DC (she/her): But I did!
	5:11pm ⓘⓚⓔ: That whole "if you hate it, you must secretly love it" is childish. Does Irwin secretly love Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez? Oh wait, bad example, he probably DOES "love" her. And you know what I mean when I say "love"....
	5:11pm Denise in DC (she/her): I was one of the Amanda pledges!
	👻 5:12pm Ben in Highland: Were you signed in at the time?
	5:12pm Listener Robert: That's what happens to snitches, especially on their mother.
	5:12pm Denise in DC (she/her): Oh well, I have to leave now anyway . . .
	5:12pm Irwin: We got you, Denise. We forgot to include you earlier. Your vote counts!
	5:12pm Kat in Chicago: @Denise You should have one then. If it doesn't show up, I forget who you email, but Olivia could probably tell us.
	5:12pm Denise in DC (she/her): <3
	5:13pm Pierre Delecto: Everything I say is a dramatization but it is based on real-life thoughts.
	5:13pm Denise in DC (she/her): Might be because I pledged under a different email address.
	5:14pm Denise in DC (she/her): I won't worry about it right now. Thanks!
	5:14pm Kat in Chicago: That's probably it, something didn't match up.
	5:14pm Otis Fodder: Now this is pumpkin carvin' music!
	👻 5:15pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Denise - You can email the station manager (ken @ wfmu . org) and he can fix things.
	5:15pm Denise in DC (she/her): Bye all! Happy Halloween!
	5:15pm olivia: 3 amanda pledges! 2 MORE and we'll play another amanda track.
	5:15pm Asheville Jon: has anyone/ a band ever done an Amanda cover?
	5:15pm Denise in DC (she/her): Thanks Ken!
	5:15pm Kat in Chicago: Bye Denise!
	5:15pm ⓘⓚⓔ: Seriously though, not to bring up politics, but if you passionately hate [Drumpf\|HRC\|Pierre Delecto\|Warren\|Bernie] does that mean you secretly love them? No, come on. That's silly.
	5:16pm olivia: i dunno ike, i'm convinced you secretly LOVE don felder
	5:17pm berbo: I think its funny that one of Johnny Cash's biggest hits was a novelty song written by somebody else; and same for Chuck Berry. Both wrote genre-defining songs!
	5:17pm coelacanth∅: hahaha!
	5:18pm John from Florham park: @Ikk I for one am not going to get into politics on this board, might lead to fights and pissed off people and a really pissed of station manager
	5:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...except Sue is great & dingaling is crap.
	5:18pm ⓘⓚⓔ: @olivia, with all due respect, that's childish and overly simplistic. I passionately hate Don Felder because I love music. @JfFP, that's why I offered multiple choice. It was just an example anyway.
	5:20pm ⓘⓚⓔ: And I put my money where my mouth is, and PLEDGED BIG to stop Felder. And it worked! (Unless Matt turns out to be a fraud and a con artist -- we'll see!) All of you who are passionate about WFMU, put your money where your mouth is too!
	5:20pm olivia: One more pledge for amanda, please!
	5:20pm Beetlemuse: Hey Irwin ever hear of Negativland ? They got a lot of good funny/weird audio goodies! anyone else hear of them...?
	5:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...perhaps one resents things that appeal in some small subconscious way ...& titanically deliver something else altogether...
	5:22pm Roberto: I can't tell if a lot of people on the board today are relatively new to WFMU or if they're just being facetious.
	5:22pm ɛɨk: Not that I would assume Matt would do that. He seems like a good person. It's OTHERS there who brought up that possibility and poisoned my mind! I blame them! I'm pure as the driven snow and very trusting! LOL.
	5:22pm SSS: Me thinks the age of the chain gang approaches, and I'm not talkin' about a miserable break - up.
	5:23pm brainiac: I may secretly love don felder (just being facetious)
	5:23pm SSS: Sure do love that song, tho.
	5:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @SSS: Slavery -> Feudalism -> Capitalism... That's a chain...& Political... Just because I'm Projecting doesn't mean it isn't True!...
	5:25pm coelacanth∅: for the first time in my life i'm looking forward to Matt playing don felder next week! i'll still tune out and listen to something good for 5 minutes; but i hope it stands. (as i'm sure it will)
	5:25pm Carmichael: Yes! Great song from a great album by a great band!
	5:25pm Irwin: Another Neil Young song that Ken doesn't know.
	5:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Preclicked.
	5:26pm Carmichael: Neither does Andy.
	5:26pm Little Danny: Hey Irwin, hey all
	5:26pm Irwin: Granted ^
	5:26pm coelacanth∅: ...(although i do like the Neil-sung versions better)
	5:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: CSN&Y on VH1 Storytellers : Nash says some maniac counted all the songs they'd written - & it were 700something...& 600something were Neil's.
	5:28pm jan: Nice to hear Buffalo Springfield! Chorus and lyrics haven't aged well, though.
	5:28pm coelacanth∅: (sorry, but i put a Sonny Sharrock track on when you played pretenders)
	5:29pm Asheville Jon: yes, her mom's name is Brenda
	5:29pm Carmichael: I like this poppier version myself. Neil slogs his way through it.
	5:30pm coelacanth∅: i like the poppy version too
	5:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: When the dream came I held my breath with my eyes closed I went insane, like a smoke ring day when the wind blows Now, I won't be back till later on If I do come back at all But you know me and I miss you now In a strange game, I saw myself as you knew me When the change came and you had a chance to see through me Though the other side is just the same You can tell my dream is real Because I love you, can you see me now? Though we rush ahead to save our time We are only what we feel And I love you, can you feel it now? Yes. ...Kinda like it. Top drawer Melody as well...
	5:30pm Kat in Chicago: Me too, Carmichael. I like the arrangement and Furay's vocal.
	5:31pm coelacanth∅: ...but i did hear the 4-way street version first and fell in love with it long before i heard the buffalo's version.
	5:31pm ɛɨk: The multiple-pledge trick is potentially a lot harder in the fall when you can only pledge with a credit card instead of choosing "bill me later". A pledger's CC company might find lots of small pledges suspicious and flag them. That's why I gave one huge amount to stop Felder instead of several small pledges. @coelacanth∅, no, come back to AntiFe! Don't leave!
	5:32pm coelacanth∅: calm down Eek, i'll never clickystar it.
	5:33pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): im off guys, best of luck irwin and olivia! All hail Amanda!
	5:33pm Kat in Chicago: ike, I personally think the Felder thing is pretty funny, but I respect your level of commitment.
	5:34pm Asheville Jon: CONCRETE NIPPLES!!!!
	5:34pm Kat in Chicago: Yay Concrete Nipples!
	5:35pm spodiodi: awwyiss
	5:35pm Asheville Jon: Amanda does a mighty fine "up against the wall redneck mother"
	5:35pm Carmichael: He he, more Amanda! Michele played some yesterday as well.
	5:35pm Beetlemuse: concrete what!? HAHA classic!
	5:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's the clean midrange quality of the Felder that makes the running joke.
	5:35pm Otis Fodder: Top of the pops right here. Thank you Amanda, you deserve your own 1970s variety special.
	5:35pm Carmichael: She also does a good Got My Mind Set On You.
	5:36pm queems: imagine walking in on your kid singing this song. i would be TERRIFIED
	5:36pm olivia: hahaha, queems
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dealing w/ nascent hormones w/ good humor. A fine sense of the absurd.
	5:37pm don_laine: Matt has sacrificed Felder for the good of the station. RIP Felder, long live WFMU!
	5:38pm Laura L: Are Amanda and Brandy still friends? It would be great if they could do a comeback show.
	5:38pm Brian C.: Wait, what? Matt isn't playing that F***er song anymore?
	5:39pm brainiac: @Laura They got married www.zola.com...
	5:39pm olivia: let's get at least One more Amanda song in this show. Just need 4 more pledges!
	5:39pm Carmichael: @Brian, it got voted off the FMU island yesterday.
	5:39pm Pierre Delecto: Not all of Mozart's paintings were masterpieces.
	5:39pm olivia: irwin's trying to find the most mind bending amanda song ... don't cha wanna hear what it is?
	5:40pm Laura L: @Brainia--thank you, how great for them!
	5:41pm coelacanth∅: if Matt does forgo felder, which is very unlikely, he'll play something every week that's so bad that even felderhaters ask for (takin' a ride) to come back.
	5:41pm brainiac: I was just being facetious. Sorry. I can't help myself.
	5:43pm Laura L: So that isn't them?
	5:43pm Brian C.: @Carmichael: Dreams come true! That's it, I'm pledging NOW
	5:44pm ɛɨk: @coelacanth∅, we'll see. I'm very curious as to what ironic novelty song could potentially replace it. And there are some such things that I actually like so it might even work out for me.... @Brian C., thanks for all the moral support in the past, fellow AntiFe! We are on the verge of a glorious victory! (Or a Pyrrhic victory, perhaps, as Coel∅ suggests. But it's something.)
	5:46pm choggie: if I am not mistaken, didn't Trumpeter Lee Morgan get shot and killed on stage by his junkie girlfriend?
	5:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Harrison's already a Cover. :)
	5:48pm Brian C.: I pledged to retroactively celebrate the AntiFe victory. Take my money!
	5:49pm Asheville Jon: Amanda info: blog.wfmu.org...
	5:49pm Phillippe Bastille: Wait, Matt's not going to play Felder anymore? I take the dog for a walk and return to the best news I've heard in years...
	5:50pm Brian C.: Maybe Matt will start playing Amanda at 11?
	5:50pm Asheville Jon: Amanda's LastFM: www.last.fm...
	5:51pm queems: i wanted to pledge to get rid of that song but i had $-36 in my bank account so i couldn't!! so psyched that other people stepped up when i couldn't
	5:51pm Spankyflop: My mischief night plan is to use touch tunes to play Frankie Teardrop in every bar in my neighborhood.
	5:52pm Phillippe Bastille: didn't Scott have a premium with only kids singing? I heard Monica play a cut a few months back at it was wonderful
	5:52pm Spankyflop: Sadly Amanda isn't available on touch tunes.
	5:53pm Kat in Chicago: That calendar is so great!
	5:53pm Carmichael: Oh man, can you imagine Squaw Hootenanny blaring from the jukebox of your local boozer?!
	5:54pm Laura L: That WFMU calendar will please listeners all year long!
	5:54pm Phillippe Bastille: Here 'tis "Shine Bright Like a Star" by Big Blood & Quinnisa Rose
	5:55pm Otis Fodder: Amanda Classic!
	5:55pm brainiac: just listen to that stereo separation
	5:55pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Irwin and Olivia!
	5:56pm Carmichael: Plenny a monny ...
	5:57pm Mike Lupica: So awesome to hear Irwin and Olivia today! Made my commute home one to remember. Also, just raised some hell in honor of you both + Scott.
	5:57pm Asheville Jon: they got the last pledge. :)
	5:57pm Otis Fodder: Cool Wednesday set selectors!
	5:58pm Kat in Chicago: Yes, Irwin and Olivia make a good team.
	5:59pm Carmichael: Way to go John!
	5:59pm brainiac: Thanks Irwin, thanks Olivia
	5:59pm Otis Fodder: Do it again!

Listener comments!
	👻 3:00pm βrian: Ah, bring on the #FF9700.
	3:01pm Hubig Pie: Beer, weed and children are indeed a lethal mix
	3:01pm Pierre Delecto: I spent last night in a spaceship. I'll never do that again. The food was awful.
	3:02pm Hubig Pie: Taste buds don't work in zero gravity
	3:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mmm ...Bop.
	3:03pm Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: How they get anywhere with no feet is beyond my comprehension. Must be the stimulants?
	👻 3:04pm βrian: Is that child wearing yellow shoes or ... ?
	3:04pm holland oats: babatman
	3:06pm Phillippe Bastille: There was a street sign in my old neighborhood that read "Watch Children". Just that. No guideliness on how long, what to do if there were no children to watch, nor any cautionary legal advice if you watch too long
	👻 3:07pm βrian: Not "Watch, Children!"?
	3:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...If you don't tell your Cats about The Jazzes ...Who Will...
	3:08pm Pierre Delecto: I believe that all God's children live in a yellow submarine.
	3:08pm Phillippe Bastille: Nope, just like this one: www.usa-traffic-signs.com...
	3:08pm Spankyflop: The sign is actually for the HBO prequel to watchmen.
	3:08pm Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: Phillippe Bastille, I believe it would be HOW you watched, not how long.
	3:09pm berbo: "eye-talian wine its too bad you're not mine" did I get that right?
	3:09pm Phillippe Bastille: @Itzall I think you're on to something there...
	👻 3:10pm Alison Porchnik: I think Pierre Delecto is a bot. Irwin's been hacked!
	3:11pm spodiodi: listening cautiously
	3:13pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): howdy irwin + all!
	3:15pm Phillippe Bastille: No more freeform jazz?
	3:15pm adampsyche: AMANDA
	3:15pm Roberto: My 87-year-old father-in-law is a recent convert to the Church of Amanda.
	👻 3:15pm βrian: What is Amanda's last name?
	3:16pm Roberto: What was it? Whitt, I think.
	👻 3:16pm AnAnonymousParty: Huggenseek
	3:16pm rdb: Amanda shreds
	3:16pm Irwin: Amanda Whitt
	3:17pm olivia: PLEDGE FOR AMANDA!
	3:17pm Asheville Jon: AMANDA!!!! oh thank you Irwin, I really needed this today.
	3:17pm Denise in DC (she/her): OMG, it's the Amanda!
	3:17pm pledge: Amanda Pow Erchild
	3:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ..child w/ pot...
	3:17pm queems: amanda is killin it
	3:17pm Phillippe Bastille: Is there a cover of Heavy Metal by Amanda out there? Because there should be.
	3:17pm Roberto: How sad is it that I knew that?
	👻 3:17pm G: The arrangements on Amanda's tracks are especially impressive!
	3:17pm Asheville Jon: LOTS of Amanda stuff on youtube, under user name: Jerserf
	3:19pm Phillippe Bastille: I thought her last name was Hugginkiss
	3:19pm Asheville Jon: you must click on my avatar!
	👻 3:20pm Ken From Hyde Park: Don't pull on Superman's cape Don't spit into the wind Don't mess with the power child!
	3:20pm Beetlemuse: Worship Me! I like it :) very unique audio
	3:23pm Denise in DC (she/her): Roberto, I don't find it sad, I find it impressive.
	3:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: She has great taste in trax ...great dynamix ...all true...
	3:24pm adampsyche: Asheville Jon you just canceled any productivity i would have had today
	3:25pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: good afternoon IRWIN and olivia! happy pre halloween! will you be going to the parade tomorrow? and as what?
	3:25pm Roberto: Yeah that's pretty much North Hollywood for you.
	3:27pm kotrunga: Who is Amanda...?
	3:27pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: WOW!!! 44 years on wfmu irwin!
	👻 3:28pm βrian: How many watts was WFMU back in the 70s?
	3:28pm austin: i will pledge for more amanda
	3:29pm holland oats: loving this convo - RSM!!!
	3:30pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: i called irwin 10 yts ago and pleaded with him to stop playing amanda. he didnt and that day back in may 2009 i had a nervous breakdown and had to be hospitalised.
	👻 3:31pm βrian: www.flickr.com...
	3:31pm brainiac: I had a great email interaction with Jody Whitt this week. What a great guy!
	👻 3:33pm G: "How many watts was WFMU back in the 70s?" I thought they used a crystal set.
	3:33pm Phillippe Bastille: I love the Florida panhandle. Beautiful beaches. And Air Force jets. Lots of jets.
	3:33pm Listener Robert: I'm guilty of being annoyed. Thought it was really cute for Irwin to play her for a while as irritainment (His coinage?), but got fed up after a while.
	3:35pm brainiac: Jody said he's got MORE in the vault! I am over the moon.
	3:36pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: im heavily medicated today prozac/abilify/trazodone. so hearing amanda wont send me to the psych ward at st barnabus hosp.
	3:36pm Pierre Delecto: Does anyone want to hear what I did last weekend?
	3:37pm Listener Robert: Like Philip, I lived in the Bronx at the time. I managed to avoid the nut hatch somehow.
	3:38pm PJ: is Hatchie the same as Waxahatchie, or are these different artists?
	3:39pm olivia: different artists PJ but i love 'em both!
	3:40pm olivia: We got 3 amanda pledges! Waiting for 2 more so that Irwin can play another AMANDA track!
	3:40pm Jeff Moore: Sometimes I'm astounded when there are people in this community unfamiliar with The Power Child. One WFMU DJ (whom I won't name) played something with a particularly gutteral energetic cookie-monster vocal on his one-minute show, and I posted a comment observing that it sounded a lot like Amanda. He quietly deleted the comment, to save Amanda Nazario from insult. Because that's apparently the only Amanda he knew of.
	3:40pm PJ: @Olivia: I am digging the Hatchie, didn't want to go down the wrong rabbit hole, but thanks to your comment maybe I will explore both
	👻 3:41pm G: Blast from the past, this Edwards. Early 72? Probably haven't heard it since then...
	3:42pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: if your mother just died? and your grieving trying to heal? i suggest not listening to irwins show. word to the wise.
	3:43pm olivia: that's 4 amanda pledge! JUST 1 MORE and we hear another amanda track!
	3:44pm Phillippe Bastille: Like Phillip, I am also on trazodone
	3:44pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: im ready IRWIN. GO FOR IT. lets have the whole show dedicated to amanda
	3:45pm Beetlemuse: I just did the pledge thingy :)
	3:45pm Listener Robert: Jeff, then R. Stevie Moore must've been promoting Amanda during the time both he and Jim Price were away from WFMU. It's hard to believe he would've been kept away from Amanda otherwise.
	👻 3:46pm βrian: "A relatively rare, but dramatic, side effect associated with trazodone is priapism."
	3:47pm Phillippe Bastille: @Brian I can testify that it does not affect everyone
	3:50pm sphere: hullo
	👻 3:52pm βrian: A cardigan and a fedora?
	3:53pm frenchee: he wore a vintage gabardine shirt and cool hat. I'll bet
	3:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...once was a prior aphorism ...that cautioned the children re priapism...
	3:54pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): irwin? a hippie? i dont believe it :p
	3:55pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: WOW! irwin is approaching his 80's and hes still on WFMU. now im impressed!
	3:56pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: i was 9. in 1976
	3:57pm Irwin: Listener Phil -- check your math.
	3:58pm Pierre Delecto: I'll give you $500 for that frog.
	3:58pm Ike: The other Ike is an Amanda fan?!? Weird. I’m not into it (though she is not as bad as Don Felder for sure).
	3:58pm adampsyche: I was born in 1976!
	3:58pm brainiac: A M A N D A! A M A N D A! A M A N D A!
	3:58pm adampsyche: ohhhhhhhhhh wow this one
	3:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Amanda, Cookie Monster & Weird Al walk into a bar ...Daniel Johnston is bartender - & The Shaggs are playing...
	4:00pm Beetlemuse: Ad for MAD magazine :)
	4:00pm BH: the lyrics are tremendous here
	4:00pm Listener Robert: You're still APPROACHING your 80s, just from a greater distance than Phillip might think. BTW, I'm 65.
	4:00pm olivia: 3 new amanda pledges! 2 more pledges til a NEW amanda track!
	4:01pm Yes: this is a delight
	4:01pm devoid.davy: Imagine all the tapes out there recorded by bored teenagers with Casios
	4:01pm Listener Phillip In The Bronx: i just past 52 myself. born in 1967
	4:01pm drew: Amanda is the Voivod of Irwin?
	4:02pm iiibeat: I want to up my pledge by 5$ per month . . So from 15$ to 20$ . . Unfortunately, I don't know how to make that happen, at this point.
	4:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @drew: ding ding
	4:02pm olivia: @iiibeat - you can email UP@wfmu.org to up your monthly pledge
	4:03pm iiibeat: Okay. Sweet. Thanks. Will do.
	4:04pm olivia: c'mon people! irwin pulled out another Amanda CD and I really wanna hear it
	4:05pm Colleen: Fun show you guys!
	4:06pm Phillippe Bastille: sweet cover
	4:08pm iiibeat: I was just notified by dvd.com that they've shipped Hellraiser to me . . Spooky man.
	4:11pm John from Florham park: Hello fellow Irwin fans
	4:11pm brainiac: I have been a FMU listener since the mid-eighties. I wish to commit myself.
	4:13pm brainiac: Thanks for the shout out Olivia. I feel reborn.
	4:13pm John from Florham park: @colleen afternoon
	👻 4:14pm Alison Porchnik: Co Tah Tee
	4:15pm John from Florham park: This is going to sound like a dumb question but who is Amanda
	4:16pm brainiac: Simply put, John, AMANDA is your god. Bow to her.
	4:16pm Beetlemuse: she is the power child, worship her! you must worship her!
	4:17pm brainiac: Kneel before her
	4:17pm John from Florham park: Felder is my god
	4:17pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): so much untapped WFMU lore! keep the storytime going
	4:18pm Beetlemuse: it is a chain I looked it up north AL and in TN
	4:19pm Denise in DC (she/her): Whitt's is indeed a chain. I looked it up when Irwin and Olivia first mentioned it.
	4:19pm brainiac: Stan looks exactly the same today as he did then
	4:19pm joechrismorris: gotta love any Soft Boys cover!
	4:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: CAUTION 'POSTGRADUATES'
	4:22pm Beetlemuse: WFMU moves in and behold... gentrification
	4:23pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): @revolution rabbit: WARNING: METH HEADS AND DRUNK UNDERGRADS
	4:24pm queems: yeah his karaoke was wild
	4:25pm John from Florham park: Afternoon Queems
	4:26pm queems: howdy @john
	4:27pm Listener Robert: That's what's impressed me lately about Glen Jones's program: His music selections mostly bore me; they're not bad, just too common. But starting a while after Burnsy died, Jonesy started talking about the music in ways that made it interesting. I always knew he COULD do that, from listening to his erstwhile interview program, but now I appreciate his actually doing it.
	4:28pm Pierre Delecto: On a scale of one to ten, I live my life in a constant state of three.
	👻 4:29pm Alison Porchnik: Bot alert
	4:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Friends - WFMU is 10Xs other stations on 1/10th the budget. I forgot to get a career - & I do the minimal amount automatically per month ('Swag For Life'). If I can do that much - ain't nobody can't do it.
	4:30pm olivia: we're a bit stuck at the moment... give us a push towards our goal!
	4:31pm olivia: 1 more amanda pledge will get us another one of her songs!
	4:31pm Phillippe Bastille: I appreciated that FMU historical roadmap, Irwin. That's some pretty good recall for a man almost in his 80s
	4:33pm John from Florham park: @Phillippe if you can watch sex and broadcasting it’s about Ken and WFMU
	4:34pm Phillippe Bastille: That's kind of a scary title, JFFP.
	4:34pm Irwin: A pledge as low as $10 will enable more Amanda.
	4:35pm Laura L: @ Phillippe--Now, don't get spry Irwin Chusid confused with the Old Codger!
	4:36pm Phillippe Bastille: They're different people?
	4:37pm brainiac: 100 quatloos for an Old Codger appearance (a Halloween seance perhaps)
	4:38pm Pierre Delecto: Forgive me if I refrain from commenting in the next few minutes. I'm in the middle of a pretty AMAZING thought process, if I do say so myself, and I am saying it. Myself, that is.
	4:40pm John from Florham park: @Philippe not really that scary
	4:40pm Listener Robert: Yesterday channeled Tom Carvel sounded like the Old Codger.
	4:45pm brainiac: As Asheville Jon would tell you, AMANDA LOVES YOU.
	4:46pm Laura L: You never know, maybe the Old Codger's hiding out in the record library... I don't know what his feelings are about Amanda.
	4:47pm MG: I can't.
	4:47pm Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: This song makes me crave pork rinds
	4:47pm Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: -more than usual.
	4:47pm Listener Robert: This business of interviewing the old-timer regarding the history of an institution reminds me of a couple days ago, when somebody from California phone-interviewed me on my role in the Howard Stern for governor of NY affair of 1994. I managed to steer the last hour of the interview onto "Lost".
	4:48pm John from Florham park: People pledged to listen to this
	4:49pm Beetlemuse: damn right we did
	4:49pm olivia: More Amanda!!!
	4:49pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): @John you know, i found it grating at first, but it has grown on me. like a tumor.
	4:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Clamorous Life
	4:50pm John from Florham park: @Lunchbox I really don’t know what to make of this
	4:51pm Honeybear: we hear you, amanda!
	4:51pm DroneTree: I saw a small girl named Sadie perform at the Cropped Out festival 2018... this Amanda reminds me of that.
	4:51pm Kat in Chicago: Amanda makes me happy
	4:51pm brainiac: @RevRabNov63: hiLARious!
	4:52pm BH: Anti-Amanda votes being counted for the Amanda fund reminds me of people interpreting ballots during recounts.
	4:52pm John from Florham park: @kat I guess Amanda is an acquired taste
	4:54pm brainiac: @Irwin wasn't "Metropolitan Mama" from the Primitive Swagger cassette?
	4:54pm Denise in DC (she/her): Oh, I haven't heard this gem in decades!
	4:54pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): @John amanda is just one of the many artists that Irwin has become the defacto archivist/historian for. he produced a reissue for the shaggs, who some people have dubbed the worlds worst band. Despite that, both the shaggs and amanda have such an earnest charm to them that I cant help but love them. even if its hard on the ears sometimes.
	4:54pm laughingacademy: OH MY GOD, I've heard of "Dropkick Me, Jesus" but I've never actually heard the song until now.
	4:56pm berbo: The entire Bobby Bare catalog needs more public exposure.
	4:57pm John from Florham park: @Lunchbox you have a point there, BTW love triple j from your neck of the woods
	4:58pm olivia: we've got some pledges in the last couple of minutes, but only ONE is an Amanda pledge. is nobody else waiting for a new Amanda tune?!
	4:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Irwin literally wrote the literary book on Outsider Music ...coined the term in fact correct me if ignorant...
	5:00pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): @John triple J is pretty great for government funded radio. they definitely influenced my taste in music, listened to them a lot growing up. have you listened to their "like a version" series online where they get famous artists to come in and cover their favourite songs?
	5:00pm pledge: A must-see clip for all Amanda fans out there: The Amanda Show https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBr0GuSf880
	5:00pm yippie: any martini garnish in the studio today?
	5:00pm Carmichael: Songs in the Key of Z. At finer bookstores everywhere (includes CD).
	5:00pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): @revolution rabbit yes he did! He also released a couple compilation albums on the matter called "Songs in the Key of Z"
	5:00pm berbo: "Boy named Sue"!!!
	5:01pm Kat in Chicago: Looked it up. Guy named Paul Craft.
	5:01pm Roberto: There's an entire Uncle Michael program of Shel Silverstein songs from earlier this year.
	5:01pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): @Charmichael jinx!
	5:01pm clearfluidz666: Delbert McClinton
	👻 5:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: Shooby Taylor would be another example of Irwin's curations.
	5:01pm flashbazbo: Shel wrote all the lyrics for dr hook. Except for a cover or two
	5:01pm Mick: Shel Silverstein wrote GREAT songs, but not Dropkick me Jesus. That was Paul Craft
	5:01pm Denise in DC (she/her): Shel Silverstein wrote tons of songs. www.famousfix.com...
	5:02pm aratuk: "The Cover of the Rolling Stone" is probably Shel Silverstein's best-known song.
	5:02pm andy the painter: oh man....never caught the lyric “i’ve got the will, and you’ve got the toe” in Drop Kick Me Jesus. masterful.
	5:02pm Otis Fodder: Hi Irwin and Olivia and AMANDA!
	5:03pm Kat in Chicago: I don't have a job right now. How much I gotta throw in for more Amanda?
	5:03pm Laura L: Yay Mike Lupica. And hi Otis!
	5:04pm Otis Fodder: Hi Laura and oh hi Kat!
	5:04pm aratuk: There's a great album of Shel Silverstein covers called "Twistable, Turnable Man" with the Pixies, John Prine, Andrew Bird
	5:04pm Kat in Chicago: I see you got your pumpkin, Otis :)
	5:04pm John from Florham park: @Lunchbox never did listen to that part of triple j
	5:05pm Otis Fodder: I did! I got my punkin. But my radio disappeared, so maybe my punkin ate it and will barf it back out into my signature next week.
	5:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hell Silverstein wrote 'Boy Names Sue'.
	5:06pm Kat in Chicago: If it doesn't come back, let the authorities know. Mine disappeared once like that.
	5:06pm Denise in DC (she/her): OTIS!!!
	👻 5:07pm Ben: My 2019 car didnt come with a CD player and I was bummed out. also the Playstation 4 can't play CDs
	5:07pm Otis Fodder: Hi Denise. Flipped over from Sheena's to hear some of my ol' pal Irwin and the awesome Olivia. Together! Today!
	5:08pm Denise in DC (she/her): BTW, I just bought a 2016 car, and it has a CD player.
	5:09pm adampsyche: am i the only one who hears what sounds like snoring in the background? or are my headphones going?
	5:10pm Otis Fodder: Tell an Amanda Fairy Tale, in song.
	5:10pm Denise in DC (she/her): Hey, how do people get the pumpkins? Is it like being a Top Commenter on Facebook?
	5:10pm Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: EVERY physical medium makes a comeback if it deserves to. CDs are convenient as hell but so is ripping a few hundred to a flash drive and taking that with you in your car/etc.
	5:10pm brainiac: @adam I keep mistaking it for my phone
	5:11pm Kat in Chicago: The pumpkins show that you pledged to the October Hellraiser
	5:11pm John from Florham park: @Olivia about Amanda oh HELL NO
	5:11pm Denise in DC (she/her): But I did!
	5:11pm ⓘⓚⓔ: That whole "if you hate it, you must secretly love it" is childish. Does Irwin secretly love Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez? Oh wait, bad example, he probably DOES "love" her. And you know what I mean when I say "love"....
	5:11pm Denise in DC (she/her): I was one of the Amanda pledges!
	👻 5:12pm Ben in Highland: Were you signed in at the time?
	5:12pm Listener Robert: That's what happens to snitches, especially on their mother.
	5:12pm Denise in DC (she/her): Oh well, I have to leave now anyway . . .
	5:12pm Irwin: We got you, Denise. We forgot to include you earlier. Your vote counts!
	5:12pm Kat in Chicago: @Denise You should have one then. If it doesn't show up, I forget who you email, but Olivia could probably tell us.
	5:12pm Denise in DC (she/her): <3
	5:13pm Pierre Delecto: Everything I say is a dramatization but it is based on real-life thoughts.
	5:13pm Denise in DC (she/her): Might be because I pledged under a different email address.
	5:14pm Denise in DC (she/her): I won't worry about it right now. Thanks!
	5:14pm Kat in Chicago: That's probably it, something didn't match up.
	5:14pm Otis Fodder: Now this is pumpkin carvin' music!
	👻 5:15pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Denise - You can email the station manager (ken @ wfmu . org) and he can fix things.
	5:15pm Denise in DC (she/her): Bye all! Happy Halloween!
	5:15pm olivia: 3 amanda pledges! 2 MORE and we'll play another amanda track.
	5:15pm Asheville Jon: has anyone/ a band ever done an Amanda cover?
	5:15pm Denise in DC (she/her): Thanks Ken!
	5:15pm Kat in Chicago: Bye Denise!
	5:15pm ⓘⓚⓔ: Seriously though, not to bring up politics, but if you passionately hate [Drumpf\|HRC\|Pierre Delecto\|Warren\|Bernie] does that mean you secretly love them? No, come on. That's silly.
	5:16pm olivia: i dunno ike, i'm convinced you secretly LOVE don felder
	5:17pm berbo: I think its funny that one of Johnny Cash's biggest hits was a novelty song written by somebody else; and same for Chuck Berry. Both wrote genre-defining songs!
	5:17pm coelacanth∅: hahaha!
	5:18pm John from Florham park: @Ikk I for one am not going to get into politics on this board, might lead to fights and pissed off people and a really pissed of station manager
	5:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...except Sue is great & dingaling is crap.
	5:18pm ⓘⓚⓔ: @olivia, with all due respect, that's childish and overly simplistic. I passionately hate Don Felder because I love music. @JfFP, that's why I offered multiple choice. It was just an example anyway.
	5:20pm ⓘⓚⓔ: And I put my money where my mouth is, and PLEDGED BIG to stop Felder. And it worked! (Unless Matt turns out to be a fraud and a con artist -- we'll see!) All of you who are passionate about WFMU, put your money where your mouth is too!
	5:20pm olivia: One more pledge for amanda, please!
	5:20pm Beetlemuse: Hey Irwin ever hear of Negativland ? They got a lot of good funny/weird audio goodies! anyone else hear of them...?
	5:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...perhaps one resents things that appeal in some small subconscious way ...& titanically deliver something else altogether...
	5:22pm Roberto: I can't tell if a lot of people on the board today are relatively new to WFMU or if they're just being facetious.
	5:22pm ɛɨk: Not that I would assume Matt would do that. He seems like a good person. It's OTHERS there who brought up that possibility and poisoned my mind! I blame them! I'm pure as the driven snow and very trusting! LOL.
	5:22pm SSS: Me thinks the age of the chain gang approaches, and I'm not talkin' about a miserable break - up.
	5:23pm brainiac: I may secretly love don felder (just being facetious)
	5:23pm SSS: Sure do love that song, tho.
	5:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @SSS: Slavery -> Feudalism -> Capitalism... That's a chain...& Political... Just because I'm Projecting doesn't mean it isn't True!...
	5:25pm coelacanth∅: for the first time in my life i'm looking forward to Matt playing don felder next week! i'll still tune out and listen to something good for 5 minutes; but i hope it stands. (as i'm sure it will)
	5:25pm Carmichael: Yes! Great song from a great album by a great band!
	5:25pm Irwin: Another Neil Young song that Ken doesn't know.
	5:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Preclicked.
	5:26pm Carmichael: Neither does Andy.
	5:26pm Little Danny: Hey Irwin, hey all
	5:26pm Irwin: Granted ^
	5:26pm coelacanth∅: ...(although i do like the Neil-sung versions better)
	5:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: CSN&Y on VH1 Storytellers : Nash says some maniac counted all the songs they'd written - & it were 700something...& 600something were Neil's.
	5:28pm jan: Nice to hear Buffalo Springfield! Chorus and lyrics haven't aged well, though.
	5:28pm coelacanth∅: (sorry, but i put a Sonny Sharrock track on when you played pretenders)
	5:29pm Asheville Jon: yes, her mom's name is Brenda
	5:29pm Carmichael: I like this poppier version myself. Neil slogs his way through it.
	5:30pm coelacanth∅: i like the poppy version too
	5:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: When the dream came I held my breath with my eyes closed I went insane, like a smoke ring day when the wind blows Now, I won't be back till later on If I do come back at all But you know me and I miss you now In a strange game, I saw myself as you knew me When the change came and you had a chance to see through me Though the other side is just the same You can tell my dream is real Because I love you, can you see me now? Though we rush ahead to save our time We are only what we feel And I love you, can you feel it now? Yes. ...Kinda like it. Top drawer Melody as well...
	5:30pm Kat in Chicago: Me too, Carmichael. I like the arrangement and Furay's vocal.
	5:31pm coelacanth∅: ...but i did hear the 4-way street version first and fell in love with it long before i heard the buffalo's version.
	5:31pm ɛɨk: The multiple-pledge trick is potentially a lot harder in the fall when you can only pledge with a credit card instead of choosing "bill me later". A pledger's CC company might find lots of small pledges suspicious and flag them. That's why I gave one huge amount to stop Felder instead of several small pledges. @coelacanth∅, no, come back to AntiFe! Don't leave!
	5:32pm coelacanth∅: calm down Eek, i'll never clickystar it.
	5:33pm Lunchbox (From DC/AUS): im off guys, best of luck irwin and olivia! All hail Amanda!
	5:33pm Kat in Chicago: ike, I personally think the Felder thing is pretty funny, but I respect your level of commitment.
	5:34pm Asheville Jon: CONCRETE NIPPLES!!!!
	5:34pm Kat in Chicago: Yay Concrete Nipples!
	5:35pm spodiodi: awwyiss
	5:35pm Asheville Jon: Amanda does a mighty fine "up against the wall redneck mother"
	5:35pm Carmichael: He he, more Amanda! Michele played some yesterday as well.
	5:35pm Beetlemuse: concrete what!? HAHA classic!
	5:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's the clean midrange quality of the Felder that makes the running joke.
	5:35pm Otis Fodder: Top of the pops right here. Thank you Amanda, you deserve your own 1970s variety special.
	5:35pm Carmichael: She also does a good Got My Mind Set On You.
	5:36pm queems: imagine walking in on your kid singing this song. i would be TERRIFIED
	5:36pm olivia: hahaha, queems
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dealing w/ nascent hormones w/ good humor. A fine sense of the absurd.
	5:37pm don_laine: Matt has sacrificed Felder for the good of the station. RIP Felder, long live WFMU!
	5:38pm Laura L: Are Amanda and Brandy still friends? It would be great if they could do a comeback show.
	5:38pm Brian C.: Wait, what? Matt isn't playing that F***er song anymore?
	5:39pm brainiac: @Laura They got married www.zola.com...
	5:39pm olivia: let's get at least One more Amanda song in this show. Just need 4 more pledges!
	5:39pm Carmichael: @Brian, it got voted off the FMU island yesterday.
	5:39pm Pierre Delecto: Not all of Mozart's paintings were masterpieces.
	5:39pm olivia: irwin's trying to find the most mind bending amanda song ... don't cha wanna hear what it is?
	5:40pm Laura L: @Brainia--thank you, how great for them!
	5:41pm coelacanth∅: if Matt does forgo felder, which is very unlikely, he'll play something every week that's so bad that even felderhaters ask for (takin' a ride) to come back.
	5:41pm brainiac: I was just being facetious. Sorry. I can't help myself.
	5:43pm Laura L: So that isn't them?
	5:43pm Brian C.: @Carmichael: Dreams come true! That's it, I'm pledging NOW
	5:44pm ɛɨk: @coelacanth∅, we'll see. I'm very curious as to what ironic novelty song could potentially replace it. And there are some such things that I actually like so it might even work out for me.... @Brian C., thanks for all the moral support in the past, fellow AntiFe! We are on the verge of a glorious victory! (Or a Pyrrhic victory, perhaps, as Coel∅ suggests. But it's something.)
	5:46pm choggie: if I am not mistaken, didn't Trumpeter Lee Morgan get shot and killed on stage by his junkie girlfriend?
	5:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Harrison's already a Cover. :)
	5:48pm Brian C.: I pledged to retroactively celebrate the AntiFe victory. Take my money!
	5:49pm Asheville Jon: Amanda info: blog.wfmu.org...
	5:49pm Phillippe Bastille: Wait, Matt's not going to play Felder anymore? I take the dog for a walk and return to the best news I've heard in years...
	5:50pm Brian C.: Maybe Matt will start playing Amanda at 11?
	5:50pm Asheville Jon: Amanda's LastFM: www.last.fm...
	5:51pm queems: i wanted to pledge to get rid of that song but i had $-36 in my bank account so i couldn't!! so psyched that other people stepped up when i couldn't
	5:51pm Spankyflop: My mischief night plan is to use touch tunes to play Frankie Teardrop in every bar in my neighborhood.
	5:52pm Phillippe Bastille: didn't Scott have a premium with only kids singing? I heard Monica play a cut a few months back at it was wonderful
	5:52pm Spankyflop: Sadly Amanda isn't available on touch tunes.
	5:53pm Kat in Chicago: That calendar is so great!
	5:53pm Carmichael: Oh man, can you imagine Squaw Hootenanny blaring from the jukebox of your local boozer?!
	5:54pm Laura L: That WFMU calendar will please listeners all year long!
	5:54pm Phillippe Bastille: Here 'tis "Shine Bright Like a Star" by Big Blood & Quinnisa Rose
	5:55pm Otis Fodder: Amanda Classic!
	5:55pm brainiac: just listen to that stereo separation
	5:55pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Irwin and Olivia!
	5:56pm Carmichael: Plenny a monny ...
	5:57pm Mike Lupica: So awesome to hear Irwin and Olivia today! Made my commute home one to remember. Also, just raised some hell in honor of you both + Scott.
	5:57pm Asheville Jon: they got the last pledge. :)
	5:57pm Otis Fodder: Cool Wednesday set selectors!
	5:58pm Kat in Chicago: Yes, Irwin and Olivia make a good team.
	5:59pm Carmichael: Way to go John!
	5:59pm brainiac: Thanks Irwin, thanks Olivia
	5:59pm Otis Fodder: Do it again!
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: TY Mr. IC TY Pledgers !
