	3:15pm Mr. Pumpy: @Handy...good one! He's the crab to his yuppy...
	3:15pm captain mike: I saw them last year too Phenomenal stage design Isn’t Ronnie Wood at the top his game these days?
	3:16pm Mr. Pumpy: Wait, are yuppies a thing still? I'm dating myself.
	3:18pm Handy Haversack: Try the veal! (Really, don't.) I mutter "yuppie baby mfer" under my breath a lot when the wealthy kids flooding the neighborhood get in my way ... or open a new CBD boutique ... so ... maybe? Faz Waltz was bringing it! World premiere!
	3:19pm mb: Ohhh. Ty Segal does a mint cover of this. Great selection, selector!
	3:19pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @captain mike: Agreed on Woody, but I think you can say that about the whole band.
	3:19pm Joey D: Never knew this until Ty Segall covered it which kicks ass but this original is also great
	3:22pm Mr. Pumpy: Well..then there are yuppies, I've been validated! Funny story, I teach high school and I used the phrase, "I'm dating myself." once. A student of mine said, "Mr., that's so sad! You are dating yourself?!" Talk about solitude...that would be taking it to a new level, dating myself!
	3:23pm egould310: @Mr. Pumpy Maybe you don’t see yuppies anymore because... you’ve become one yourself?!?!
	3:23pm ChasG: Have the recent Elevator Operators EP? Love to hear a track. Everything you’re playing is killing it.
	3:24pm Handy Haversack: Mr. P -- I was gonna say there's nothing wrong with dating yourself! You never argue about where to eat!
	3:24pm captain mike: Really enjoyed Mr Wood’s Chuck Berry Tribute lp recently as well Cheers Todd!
	3:25pm Handy Haversack: This Squeeze tune sounds so fresh!
	3:25pm SeanG: Squeeze rules!
	3:26pm Mr. Pumpy: @egould...I don't fit the description!
	3:27pm Mr. Pumpy: Handy...I date myself a few days a week, at short intervals. I know what I like for dinner!
	👻 3:27pm Frank In Queens: So the Squeeze song goes out to Fusco?
	3:28pm Handy Haversack: @TOPT: Kate and I are coming to Marathonunteer during your show 3/14, last Sat. of Marathon!
	3:31pm Miles: Wowza
	3:32pm mb: Mama Mia
	3:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Todd and all. Happy Discounted Chocolate Day!
	👻 3:38pm JG: Richard Manuel's vocal on Honky Tonk is Absolutely amazing
	👻 3:39pm JG: RObertons's Guitar is pretty wicked too
	3:47pm Joey D: This is such a badass recording.
	3:48pm Handy Haversack: Holy smokes, this is great. I wasn't planning on ever working on Maggie's farm, but now I am definitely not going to.
	3:49pm ChasG:
	3:52pm ChasG: Evidently the comments don’t take hand clapping emojis.
	3:53pm Mr. Pumpy: @Handy...I'm coming. We'll look out for each other on the old farm!
	3:55pm Handy Haversack: Mr. P -- coming to which? Maggie's farm? Did you not hear Bob?!
	3:56pm Mr. Pumpy: Yes...Maggie's Farm!
	3:58pm Handy Haversack: We was warned!
	3:59pm ?: None of The Hawks including Robbie appear on the version of “Maggie’s Farm” you played. That is Mike Bloomfield on guitar with Harvey Brooks, Al Kooper and Sam Lay backing him at Newport ‘65.
	4:03pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Can't win them all. A great track nonetheless!
	4:05pm JayPHunt: I loved Ronnie Hawkins & The Hawks growing up in London Ontario and later The Band. I can't wait to see Before Were Brothers. Thanks for bringing this great interview with Robbie.
	4:07pm John from Florham park: Hello fellow TOPT listeners
	4:09pm ChasG: Cool info from Robbie re: banjo string for high E, then move others down to create a “light gauge” set for heavy bending on a Telecaster.
	4:11pm Woo: The guitar talk is great and I don't usually like guitar talk.
	4:12pm John from Florham park: @Woo todd and the rest of the DJs on this station are a cut above the rest
	4:15pm Woo: That they are. I need WFMU.
	4:17pm John from Florham park: @Woo WFMU keeps me sane in a insane world
	4:17pm mb: Thx for doing your homework, Todd-O. Mr. Robertson forgot to mention you da Man!
	4:18pm SeanG: can't beat this stuff
	4:18pm Fredericks: Will Todd find out who Fanny is?
	4:19pm SeanG: sing it Rick
	4:20pm George in WO: TOPT did his homework indeed, always does. A+ for this here for sure. Thanks!
	4:21pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks everyone! Stay tuned for Part 2!
	4:21pm curtis_chaos_la_la: I just saw a hawk on a light post on 710 N in LA. Great show thanks.
	4:23pm Fredericks: I just hawked up a loogie!
	4:23pm Handy Haversack: Was that last question about the "persona" in reference to Dylan? I missed a second.
	4:23pm SeanG: HELL YEAH
	4:24pm Woo: That organ.
	4:24pm Fredericks: My favorite Band song: Chest Fever.
	4:25pm Woo: Three Dog Night did a good version of this but it's not this.
	4:25pm RobinSays: Enjoying your show today very much.
	4:26pm medson: Loving the hell out of this Todd.
	4:27pm SeanG: party on Garth
	4:27pm John from Florham park: Great interview Todd
	4:30pm Handy Haversack: Not sure math was their strong suit.
	4:32pm Fredericks: Woo: Technically, I probably knew the Three Dog version first.
	4:33pm Woo: Fredericks, me too. It was the flip of one of their hits. A worthy flip.
	4:35pm John from Florham park: @Gandy digging this interview too I see
	4:35pm MFlynn: Thanks Todd. Really enjoying the show.
	4:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Band were putting out material that sounded like it had always existed as soon as it was released. They weren't the only ones - but they characterize it for a particular era in a particular way...
	4:36pm John from Florham park: I mean handy sorry
	4:36pm listener 126464: Hi Todd! Knocked loose a memory of seeing The Last Waltz at Zeigfeld.
	4:37pm Handy Haversack: @John, definitely. Enjoying the whole show!
	4:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...course - the Culture & the Times were moving o fast & far out - Back to Earth was the furthest thing out there could be...Everyone felt that influence - & the Dead, Beatles, Stones, Elevators & Credence are among those who joined the ride to one extent or other...
	4:39pm Mike Sin: Loving the interview! Robertson has always been very articulate and his clarity really gets his perspective across.
	4:40pm John from Florham park: Has anyone here ever watched the last waltz? Great documentary
	4:41pm JayPHunt: I wonder if we will ever see the long promised box set "From Bacon Fat To Judgement Day" It was to include all unreleased tracks from Levon and The Hawks between leaving Ronnie Hawkins and joining Bob Dylan. Garth Hudson has been the driving force behind it for 15 years, but it seems to be being held up by Robbie Robertson. Maybe when "Once Were Brothers" is released he will let it go ahead.
	4:43pm Jimmy: crappy hippie music by the band
	4:44pm Fredericks: Actually, my very favorite Band song is Stage Fright.
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Today they'd just call it Americana I think !
	4:47pm John from Florham park: This is not hippie music just damn good music
	4:48pm Woo: I won Rock of Ages on the radio a long time ago. I loved when radio stations would give records away on the air.
	4:49pm John from Florham park: This has to be from the last waltz
	4:50pm Jimmy: for hippies. this aint rock & roll
	4:50pm patrick321: Damn, Todd, what a monster set.
	4:51pm Jimmy: stupidest cocaine movie
	4:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...was just thinking today how @ one time drums were not allowed in the Grand Ole Opry ...there's always been this other culture or movement that refused to let Corporate forces dictate how owns the U.S. American legacy... LBJ signing the Civil Rights Bill in 1964 of course lost the South to Conservatives - & I think the divide continues today in the Musics... Dylan w/ the Band were so defiant of audience expectation : that's so very Punk - altho' Dylan often been regarded as the beginning of taking Rawk 'seriously' - the opposite of 'Punk' or Roots Rawk. In fact - he wanted to be Little Richard before he wanted to be Woody Guthrie... & then The Band formed in Isolation...
	4:51pm SeanG: then go elsewhere Jimmy ya dunce
	4:51pm Handy Haversack: @Woo, the rock station where I grew up had a Perfect Album Side contest. You send in a themed set of songs to win a $50 gift coin to Turtles. You were not allowed to send it in on auto parts. They had learned their lesson.
	4:51pm John from Florham park: @Fredricks mine is the night they drive old Dixie down
	4:53pm Doobois: Gawd damn, this segment kicked ass! Thanks, TOPT. You rock!
	4:54pm huudy: I watch the Last Waltz at least once a year. That Neil Diamond track alone will bring you to your knees. Great movie!!
	4:54pm CC: Great stuff, Todd!!!...
	4:55pm Woo: At times they would give away 6-packs of 45s. Basically they were unloading their promos. I have some pretty obscure 45s from being the third caller.
	4:55pm John from Florham park: @huudy I agree
	4:56pm Fredericks: Think that song was my first introduction to the Band, JfFP.
	4:57pm Fredericks: Handy, Todd's last set would have won the $50, no?
	4:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Last Waltz' directed by Martin Scorsese of course.
	4:57pm John from Florham park: @fredricjs what a great intro into the band
	4:58pm huudy: Garth's story bout being the band's paid music teacher so he could tell his parents he was making money with all that band stuff lol
	5:02pm Handy Haversack: @Fredericks, I'd vote for it! I won once my writing the songs in the study guide for getting your driver license from the DMV.
	👻 5:06pm Frank In Queens: Uh-oh! You hear that Jimmy? The Grateful Dead!
	5:07pm George in WO: I was at the Watkins Glen shows. Band, Dead, Allmans.
	5:07pm Jimmy: what happened to this radio program?
	5:07pm CC: They didn't boo you guys too long back when you started backing Dylan..!?!...
	5:09pm Frank Zaatar: I was there too! The Band''s set sounded the best at that show. Band + Owsley's Wall of Sound = sonic gold.
	5:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Being very generous w/ his time !
	5:12pm SeanG: i really dig that first robbie solo album
	5:13pm ChasG: Robbie is very generous with his detailed answers. Rabbit: I was typing as you posted. :)
	👻 5:16pm Frank In Queens: Awesome Todd!
	5:16pm Frank Zaatar: Join The Band? You wish, Eric.
	5:16pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, that was a long interview, with seemingly candid, thoughtful answers. Well done, Todd!
	5:17pm ChasG: Way to go Todd! Great interview.
	5:17pm P-90: Bravo, Todd. Very nice interview. Really got a little bit of a sense of the guy. Sniffles and all.
	5:18pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks to all...I was very happy with how the interview went.
	5:19pm listener 126464: Excellent!
	5:19pm SeanG: Canada baby!
	5:20pm pinto bean: Love this sadies song!
	5:20pm Handy Haversack: This guy really does sound despicable! Try a preacher -- dang it!
	5:21pm listener 126464: King Kahn is up there!
	5:21pm Gary: Thanks Todd. That was great.
	5:23pm Marc Francis: Thanks Todd! That was lovely!
	5:25pm Eric from Lake Hiawatha: Thanks Todd
	5:25pm John from Haledon: Swell interview, Todd. Radio magic.
	5:32pm Joey D: Great Interview Todd!
	5:33pm Sean B.: :-)
	5:36pm johnzo: he knows Fargo’s in North Dakota right...
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yay Ringo track.
	5:37pm Spinning Giant: Especially amazing show today, Todd!!! Really really really really really really really really really really cool daddio!!!
	5:37pm Handy Haversack: I think that was the joke? He was so far gone ...
	5:39pm Marc from Fort lee: Excellent music Todd. Regarding the interview with Robbie Robertson, if Richard, Levon and Rick were still alive I'd bet they would have a different spin on the breakup of the Band. Although he is one of the greatest guitarists of all time, Robbie got to full of himself.
	5:40pm Spinning Giant: Thanks & Cheers - me and my 2 super awesome kiddos are listening up in rural Ontario, Canada
	5:43pm Handy Haversack: This is great -- where are the Exbats from?
	5:44pm patrick321: Oh this is brilliant. I should buy this for at least 3 women I know.
	5:45pm Handy Haversack: I am guessing out west ...
	5:45pm mb: Village Voice ::sigh:: At least we still have the Aquarian!
	5:46pm listener 126464: NY Rocker
	5:46pm P-90: I can’t get past the loss of the Village Voice. Our old nemesis Rupert Murdoch “caught and killed” it.
	5:47pm Handy Haversack: "Molly's Lips" was on Nirvana's Incesticide.
	5:47pm Mr. Pumpy: @Handy...Arizona, I believe
	5:47pm kev: yes to Molly's lips
	5:48pm Handy Haversack: Makes sense, Mr. P!
	5:48pm Spinning Giant: Love those Lips, and The Vaselines in general - haven't heard it in ages - Cheers T-O-P-T
	5:48pm Mr. Pumpy: In other news...I just caught this headline, "City shuts down part of a park due to annual snake orgy"
	5:52pm listener 126464: Thanks again Todd! Whoop Dee Doo Frank Black!
	5:52pm Mr. Pumpy: Great three hours, Todd. Thanks!
	5:53pm Fuzzy: Who had the better scream?
	5:53pm Handy Haversack: Great show today, Todd -- thanks! The interview was great, and these last couple sets are bringing the rock! Nice chatting, everyone. L8rs, sk8rs!
	5:54pm Handy Haversack: Toddy on the spot with the kill switch today, too!
	5:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks much, Todd. More stars in the cavalcade next week!
	5:56pm Spinning Giant: Start to Finish LEGENDARY T-o-p-T
	5:58pm ?: thanks Todd-o-phonic Todd!
	5:59pm Mr. Pumpy: Felling Hot Hot Hot!
	5:59pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks for listening everyone (even Jimmy). See you next week!
	5:59pm listener 126464: Black Lips this Friday in Asbury Park
	👻 6:00pm Frank In Queens: Nice show Todd, as usual!
	6:00pm CleanShirt: Made my Saturday nice again
	6:11pm Beep Boop: Just checking everyone's spelling and uh- Todd- it's "Sing... In A World That's Falling Apart"
	6:12pm Beep Boop: Actually might be: "...Sing... In A World That's Falling Apart"
	6:13pm Beep Boop: "...Sing 'In A World That's Falling Apart'"
	6:14pm Beep Boop: Sing is really VERY much like Sin- Ok Todd- I'm not going to be able to listen to your program anymore

	3:25pm SeanG: Squeeze rules!
	3:26pm Mr. Pumpy: @egould...I don't fit the description!
	3:27pm Mr. Pumpy: Handy...I date myself a few days a week, at short intervals. I know what I like for dinner!
	👻 3:27pm Frank In Queens: So the Squeeze song goes out to Fusco?
	3:28pm Handy Haversack: @TOPT: Kate and I are coming to Marathonunteer during your show 3/14, last Sat. of Marathon!
	3:31pm Miles: Wowza
	3:32pm mb: Mama Mia
	3:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Todd and all. Happy Discounted Chocolate Day!
	👻 3:38pm JG: Richard Manuel's vocal on Honky Tonk is Absolutely amazing
	👻 3:39pm JG: RObertons's Guitar is pretty wicked too
	3:47pm Joey D: This is such a badass recording.
	3:48pm Handy Haversack: Holy smokes, this is great. I wasn't planning on ever working on Maggie's farm, but now I am definitely not going to.
	3:49pm ChasG:
	3:52pm ChasG: Evidently the comments don’t take hand clapping emojis.
	3:53pm Mr. Pumpy: @Handy...I'm coming. We'll look out for each other on the old farm!
	3:55pm Handy Haversack: Mr. P -- coming to which? Maggie's farm? Did you not hear Bob?!
	3:56pm Mr. Pumpy: Yes...Maggie's Farm!
	3:58pm Handy Haversack: We was warned!
	3:59pm ?: None of The Hawks including Robbie appear on the version of “Maggie’s Farm” you played. That is Mike Bloomfield on guitar with Harvey Brooks, Al Kooper and Sam Lay backing him at Newport ‘65.
	4:03pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Can't win them all. A great track nonetheless!
	4:05pm JayPHunt: I loved Ronnie Hawkins & The Hawks growing up in London Ontario and later The Band. I can't wait to see Before Were Brothers. Thanks for bringing this great interview with Robbie.
	4:07pm John from Florham park: Hello fellow TOPT listeners
	4:09pm ChasG: Cool info from Robbie re: banjo string for high E, then move others down to create a “light gauge” set for heavy bending on a Telecaster.
	4:11pm Woo: The guitar talk is great and I don't usually like guitar talk.
	4:12pm John from Florham park: @Woo todd and the rest of the DJs on this station are a cut above the rest
	4:15pm Woo: That they are. I need WFMU.
	4:17pm John from Florham park: @Woo WFMU keeps me sane in a insane world
	4:17pm mb: Thx for doing your homework, Todd-O. Mr. Robertson forgot to mention you da Man!
	4:18pm SeanG: can't beat this stuff
	4:18pm Fredericks: Will Todd find out who Fanny is?
	4:19pm SeanG: sing it Rick
	4:20pm George in WO: TOPT did his homework indeed, always does. A+ for this here for sure. Thanks!
	4:21pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks everyone! Stay tuned for Part 2!
	4:21pm curtis_chaos_la_la: I just saw a hawk on a light post on 710 N in LA. Great show thanks.
	4:23pm Fredericks: I just hawked up a loogie!
	4:23pm Handy Haversack: Was that last question about the "persona" in reference to Dylan? I missed a second.
	4:23pm SeanG: HELL YEAH
	4:24pm Woo: That organ.
	4:24pm Fredericks: My favorite Band song: Chest Fever.
	4:25pm Woo: Three Dog Night did a good version of this but it's not this.
	4:25pm RobinSays: Enjoying your show today very much.
	4:26pm medson: Loving the hell out of this Todd.
	4:27pm SeanG: party on Garth
	4:27pm John from Florham park: Great interview Todd
	4:30pm Handy Haversack: Not sure math was their strong suit.
	4:32pm Fredericks: Woo: Technically, I probably knew the Three Dog version first.
	4:33pm Woo: Fredericks, me too. It was the flip of one of their hits. A worthy flip.
	4:35pm John from Florham park: @Gandy digging this interview too I see
	4:35pm MFlynn: Thanks Todd. Really enjoying the show.
	4:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Band were putting out material that sounded like it had always existed as soon as it was released. They weren't the only ones - but they characterize it for a particular era in a particular way...
	4:36pm John from Florham park: I mean handy sorry
	4:36pm listener 126464: Hi Todd! Knocked loose a memory of seeing The Last Waltz at Zeigfeld.
	4:37pm Handy Haversack: @John, definitely. Enjoying the whole show!
	4:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...course - the Culture & the Times were moving o fast & far out - Back to Earth was the furthest thing out there could be...Everyone felt that influence - & the Dead, Beatles, Stones, Elevators & Credence are among those who joined the ride to one extent or other...
	4:39pm Mike Sin: Loving the interview! Robertson has always been very articulate and his clarity really gets his perspective across.
	4:40pm John from Florham park: Has anyone here ever watched the last waltz? Great documentary
	4:41pm JayPHunt: I wonder if we will ever see the long promised box set "From Bacon Fat To Judgement Day" It was to include all unreleased tracks from Levon and The Hawks between leaving Ronnie Hawkins and joining Bob Dylan. Garth Hudson has been the driving force behind it for 15 years, but it seems to be being held up by Robbie Robertson. Maybe when "Once Were Brothers" is released he will let it go ahead.
	4:43pm Jimmy: crappy hippie music by the band
	4:44pm Fredericks: Actually, my very favorite Band song is Stage Fright.
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Today they'd just call it Americana I think !
	4:47pm John from Florham park: This is not hippie music just damn good music
	4:48pm Woo: I won Rock of Ages on the radio a long time ago. I loved when radio stations would give records away on the air.
	4:49pm John from Florham park: This has to be from the last waltz
	4:50pm Jimmy: for hippies. this aint rock & roll
	4:50pm patrick321: Damn, Todd, what a monster set.
	4:51pm Jimmy: stupidest cocaine movie
	4:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...was just thinking today how @ one time drums were not allowed in the Grand Ole Opry ...there's always been this other culture or movement that refused to let Corporate forces dictate how owns the U.S. American legacy... LBJ signing the Civil Rights Bill in 1964 of course lost the South to Conservatives - & I think the divide continues today in the Musics... Dylan w/ the Band were so defiant of audience expectation : that's so very Punk - altho' Dylan often been regarded as the beginning of taking Rawk 'seriously' - the opposite of 'Punk' or Roots Rawk. In fact - he wanted to be Little Richard before he wanted to be Woody Guthrie... & then The Band formed in Isolation...
	4:51pm SeanG: then go elsewhere Jimmy ya dunce
	4:51pm Handy Haversack: @Woo, the rock station where I grew up had a Perfect Album Side contest. You send in a themed set of songs to win a $50 gift coin to Turtles. You were not allowed to send it in on auto parts. They had learned their lesson.
	4:51pm John from Florham park: @Fredricks mine is the night they drive old Dixie down
	4:53pm Doobois: Gawd damn, this segment kicked ass! Thanks, TOPT. You rock!
	4:54pm huudy: I watch the Last Waltz at least once a year. That Neil Diamond track alone will bring you to your knees. Great movie!!
	4:54pm CC: Great stuff, Todd!!!...
	4:55pm Woo: At times they would give away 6-packs of 45s. Basically they were unloading their promos. I have some pretty obscure 45s from being the third caller.
	4:55pm John from Florham park: @huudy I agree
	4:56pm Fredericks: Think that song was my first introduction to the Band, JfFP.
	4:57pm Fredericks: Handy, Todd's last set would have won the $50, no?
	4:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Last Waltz' directed by Martin Scorsese of course.
	4:57pm John from Florham park: @fredricjs what a great intro into the band
	4:58pm huudy: Garth's story bout being the band's paid music teacher so he could tell his parents he was making money with all that band stuff lol
	5:02pm Handy Haversack: @Fredericks, I'd vote for it! I won once my writing the songs in the study guide for getting your driver license from the DMV.
	👻 5:06pm Frank In Queens: Uh-oh! You hear that Jimmy? The Grateful Dead!
	5:07pm George in WO: I was at the Watkins Glen shows. Band, Dead, Allmans.
	5:07pm Jimmy: what happened to this radio program?
	5:07pm CC: They didn't boo you guys too long back when you started backing Dylan..!?!...
	5:09pm Frank Zaatar: I was there too! The Band''s set sounded the best at that show. Band + Owsley's Wall of Sound = sonic gold.
	5:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Being very generous w/ his time !
	5:12pm SeanG: i really dig that first robbie solo album
	5:13pm ChasG: Robbie is very generous with his detailed answers. Rabbit: I was typing as you posted. :)
	👻 5:16pm Frank In Queens: Awesome Todd!
	5:16pm Frank Zaatar: Join The Band? You wish, Eric.
	5:16pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, that was a long interview, with seemingly candid, thoughtful answers. Well done, Todd!
	5:17pm ChasG: Way to go Todd! Great interview.
	5:17pm P-90: Bravo, Todd. Very nice interview. Really got a little bit of a sense of the guy. Sniffles and all.
	5:18pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks to all...I was very happy with how the interview went.
	5:19pm listener 126464: Excellent!
	5:19pm SeanG: Canada baby!
	5:20pm pinto bean: Love this sadies song!
	5:20pm Handy Haversack: This guy really does sound despicable! Try a preacher -- dang it!
	5:21pm listener 126464: King Kahn is up there!
	5:21pm Gary: Thanks Todd. That was great.
	5:23pm Marc Francis: Thanks Todd! That was lovely!
	5:25pm Eric from Lake Hiawatha: Thanks Todd
	5:25pm John from Haledon: Swell interview, Todd. Radio magic.
	5:32pm Joey D: Great Interview Todd!
	5:33pm Sean B.: :-)
	5:36pm johnzo: he knows Fargo’s in North Dakota right...
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yay Ringo track.
	5:37pm Spinning Giant: Especially amazing show today, Todd!!! Really really really really really really really really really really cool daddio!!!
	5:37pm Handy Haversack: I think that was the joke? He was so far gone ...
	5:39pm Marc from Fort lee: Excellent music Todd. Regarding the interview with Robbie Robertson, if Richard, Levon and Rick were still alive I'd bet they would have a different spin on the breakup of the Band. Although he is one of the greatest guitarists of all time, Robbie got to full of himself.
	5:40pm Spinning Giant: Thanks & Cheers - me and my 2 super awesome kiddos are listening up in rural Ontario, Canada
	5:43pm Handy Haversack: This is great -- where are the Exbats from?
	5:44pm patrick321: Oh this is brilliant. I should buy this for at least 3 women I know.
	5:45pm Handy Haversack: I am guessing out west ...
	5:45pm mb: Village Voice ::sigh:: At least we still have the Aquarian!
	5:46pm listener 126464: NY Rocker
	5:46pm P-90: I can’t get past the loss of the Village Voice. Our old nemesis Rupert Murdoch “caught and killed” it.
	5:47pm Handy Haversack: "Molly's Lips" was on Nirvana's Incesticide.
	5:47pm Mr. Pumpy: @Handy...Arizona, I believe
	5:47pm kev: yes to Molly's lips
	5:48pm Handy Haversack: Makes sense, Mr. P!
	5:48pm Spinning Giant: Love those Lips, and The Vaselines in general - haven't heard it in ages - Cheers T-O-P-T
	5:48pm Mr. Pumpy: In other news...I just caught this headline, "City shuts down part of a park due to annual snake orgy"
	5:52pm listener 126464: Thanks again Todd! Whoop Dee Doo Frank Black!
	5:52pm Mr. Pumpy: Great three hours, Todd. Thanks!
	5:53pm Fuzzy: Who had the better scream?
	5:53pm Handy Haversack: Great show today, Todd -- thanks! The interview was great, and these last couple sets are bringing the rock! Nice chatting, everyone. L8rs, sk8rs!
	5:54pm Handy Haversack: Toddy on the spot with the kill switch today, too!
	5:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks much, Todd. More stars in the cavalcade next week!
	5:56pm Spinning Giant: Start to Finish LEGENDARY T-o-p-T
	5:58pm ?: thanks Todd-o-phonic Todd!
	5:59pm Mr. Pumpy: Felling Hot Hot Hot!
	5:59pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks for listening everyone (even Jimmy). See you next week!
	5:59pm listener 126464: Black Lips this Friday in Asbury Park
	👻 6:00pm Frank In Queens: Nice show Todd, as usual!
	6:00pm CleanShirt: Made my Saturday nice again
	6:11pm Beep Boop: Just checking everyone's spelling and uh- Todd- it's "Sing... In A World That's Falling Apart"
	6:12pm Beep Boop: Actually might be: "...Sing... In A World That's Falling Apart"
	6:13pm Beep Boop: "...Sing 'In A World That's Falling Apart'"
	6:14pm Beep Boop: Sing is really VERY much like Sin- Ok Todd- I'm not going to be able to listen to your program anymore
