	♥ 10:06pm chresti: Hello Kris and homies, tell it like it is.
	♥ 10:07pm Doug Schulkind: Spin truth to power, brother Kris.
	10:07pm CC: what blows my mind is that more people have died in the last 3 months than died in the entire Vietnam Korean and Iraq conflicts put together!!!
	10:08pm CC: going out and exposing yourself to such crowds is idiotic!!!...simple!!
	🥁 ♥ 10:08pm WR: Thank you for speaking anti-racism. Yes, most all your listeners likely agree but need to keep the anti-racism energy growing.
	♥ 10:09pm Julie: @CC those numbers are only counting American lives in those wars
	♥ 10:09pm Julie: I have friends out there, they are being as cautious as they can, wearing their masks
	10:10pm CC: Good point, Julie!!!
	10:11pm CC: I was planning on staying in the house until next summer anyway!!!
	♥ 10:13pm Julie: being afraid of the virus has made me understand what it's like to possibly risk your life every time you leave the house. Some of these people didn't even leave their homes!
	♥ 10:13pm Julie: thank you, Kris
	♥ 10:14pm coelacanth∅: rest in peace all victims of police mureder
	♥ 10:14pm coelacanth∅: (?... murder)
	🥁 ♥ 10:18pm Kris Holmes: Hi guys!
	♥ 10:18pm coelacanth∅: oh, and Julie @10.03 haha!
	🥁 ♥ 10:20pm Kris Holmes: It's been a heavy week
	♥ 10:20pm Julie: Kris how is SA holding up? I have family living there but I know they wouldn't be anywhere near a protest.
	♥ 10:20pm Franco Twinkie: Well shit, here it is. What we all knew what was coming. Right here, right now.
	🥁 ♥ 10:21pm Kris Holmes: It's pretty quiet comparatively Julie, some protests on the weekend, small skirmishes, not too epic
	♥ 10:22pm Franco Twinkie: This place(L.A.) is going nuts.
	♥ 10:23pm Julie: I'm not near much of what is going on in NYC though some of the looting has too close for comfort
	♥ 10:23pm coelacanth∅: i think most americans were (and even now still are) THAT clueless that this is taking them COMPLETELY off-guard
	♥ 10:24pm Franco Twinkie: The Gamblers! Elliot Ingber on guitar.
	♥ 10:24pm Matt from New Orleans: It’s been relatively quiet here as well. The police have been allowing the protesters to march wherever they want and there hasn’t really been much property damage. The protesters took over the interstate this evening and there was no attempt to stop them. I guess it helps that there’s far less people on the road.
	♥ 10:25pm chresti: Back to regular programming now, no looters, shooters, chases, as of yet tonight.
	🥁 ♥ 10:27pm WR: Matt, thanks for the NOLA report. I was wondering, have 2 brothers still in NOLA but haven't spoken with them since this started.
	♥ 10:28pm Franco Twinkie: I like this aggro trip you're on Kris.
	10:29pm CC: It's like a big concert... everybody's been at home so long they're bored and they need a good reason to go out and spread the virus???... death turns a blind eye to justified intentions!!!
	10:30pm fleep: It is the need to feel part of something. But what a sad thing to be part of.
	♥ 10:31pm Franco Twinkie: Marty, I love you!
	🥁 ♥ 10:31pm WR: When is this Marty Balin from?
	♥ 10:32pm Franco Twinkie: SF. me thinks.
	♥ 10:33pm Matt from New Orleans: 1962
	🥁 ♥ 10:34pm WR: Discogs says 1962 for the Balin.
	♥ 10:37pm Matt from New Orleans: Kris you were right about Bruce
	♥ 10:37pm chresti: The looting last night was up close and personal, with a close-up of some white guy torching a store after everyone finished looting.
	10:40pm Bri The Beatnik: I like this version!
	♥ 10:40pm Matt from New Orleans: It’s no Billy Stewart but their version is quality.
	🥁 ♥ 10:41pm Kris Holmes: It's rawerer
	♥ 10:41pm Franco Twinkie: Right now Family Feud is on the TV, it's white people against black people, I'm not kidding!
	♥ 10:41pm Matt from New Orleans: Heard the Billy version way too many times listening to Bob Abrahamian
	♥ 10:41pm coelacanth∅: just listened to this yesterday - except the Slim Smith version
	🥁 ♥ 10:41pm Kris Holmes: A friend's record store will not be reopening after being damaged saturday night in Richmond :(
	10:42pm Bri The Beatnik: :(
	10:42pm Bri The Beatnik: That’s horrible!
	♥ 10:42pm Matt from New Orleans: VA or Bay Area?
	♥ 10:43pm Julie: oh no how awful
	🥁 ♥ 10:44pm Kris Holmes: VA. He is upset understandably but publicly went on record saying he is more upset about the political/racial situation that caused his store to be damaged. Which I applaud.
	10:45pm CC: If you want to make America great again you have to start by voting Democrat!!!... then weed out all the bad Democratic apples!!!... Republicans should all be cast out into the darkness forever though!!!
	10:46pm Bri The Beatnik: I agree with you CC about weeding out the bad Democratic apples!
	10:47pm Bri The Beatnik: I’m a Democrat btw
	🥁 ♥ 10:48pm Kris Holmes: I can't legally vote so please vote wisely for me in November!
	10:48pm Bri The Beatnik: Will do!
	♥ 10:50pm Franco Twinkie: To bad punch ballots seem to be extinct or I would do your portrait in little holes, Kris.
	♥ 10:50pm Matt from New Orleans: You actually went into your own records tonight and not your selling pile
	♥ 10:51pm coelacanth∅: i don't trust any of the democratic presidential candidates since Jimmy Carter (and i was too young to vote at that time) - but i despise with all of my heart every republican candidate in my lifetime.
	10:51pm Carmichael: Heya Kris and folks.
	♥ 10:53pm Matt from New Orleans: You forgot Alaska Kris
	♥ 10:54pm coelacanth∅: hey Carm
	♥ 10:54pm Franco Twinkie: Coel, Jimmy Carter was my first presidential election and I wrecked into a truck on the way to vote!
	10:55pm Bri The Beatnik: Kinda sad but true Coel
	♥ 10:55pm coelacanth∅: Franco did you take that as an omen and vote contrary to your original plan?!
	♥ 10:56pm coelacanth∅: (actually i hope you weren't hurt)
	🥁 ♥ 10:57pm Kris Holmes: Matt, actually some of these are out because they'll be hitting eBay in the next couple of weeks! A last hurrah.
	♥ 10:57pm Little Danny: Hey y'all
	10:57pm CC: if you give Joe Biden a chance... I promise he won't let you down!!!
	10:59pm Bri The Beatnik: I’m mostly economically democrat
	🥁 ♥ 10:59pm Kris Holmes: Hi Dan!
	♥ 10:59pm Matt from New Orleans: Fair enough
	♥ 10:59pm coelacanth∅: we'll see,CC. i don't like him and i don't trust him. but i imagine it'll be the usual "better of 2 evils" story
	10:59pm CC: I think Andrew Cuomo would make a fantastic President also!!!
	11:00pm Bri The Beatnik: Bernie would’ve been great
	♥ 11:01pm Franco Twinkie: No, but this really happened: My parents were Kennedy Democrats in 1960. I was five years old. We were at some shopping center and there was a republican crap table and I insisted on getting a Nixon button. The next day I was standing in front of our house with the button pinned to the front of my shirt and some older kid walking by slugged me in the face.
	11:01pm CC: I love Bernie but he don't know how to make anybody come together!!!
	🥁 ♥ 11:01pm WR: Mr. Bobby Mitchell, it has been a while since I've listened to him. Thank you.
	🥁 ♥ 11:01pm Kris Holmes: 2020: "A gunshot to the eye vs A gunshot to your leg"
	♥ 11:02pm coelacanth∅: Bri, yes -would've been an actual "i want this one" vote!
	♥ 11:02pm Matt from New Orleans: Well you do have a punchable face Franco
	♥ 11:02pm Matt from New Orleans: Kris I’m heading out but I’ll be listening
	11:02pm Bri The Beatnik: If only there was a major labor party in America
	♥ 11:03pm Matt from New Orleans: Have a good night everyone
	11:03pm Bri The Beatnik: You too Matt!
	11:03pm Dean: I have never voted, never registered. And I never will until there is a genuine possibility of a chance to elect capable politicians. I am amazed at the utter gullibility of Americans. We want so badly to believe the shit that lying monsters like George Washington -- never mind Donald Trump -- have routinely dished out to us. Stop it, already people. There is no way out.
	🥁 ♥ 11:03pm WR: G'night Matt.
	🥁 ♥ 11:03pm Kris Holmes: night Matt
	♥ 11:03pm coelacanth∅: haha Franco! you earned it! (and i'm glad you weren't hurt in the crash)
	♥ 11:05pm coelacanth∅: 'night Matt
	11:05pm CC: Great show!!!...Cheerz!!
	🥁 ♥ 11:06pm Kris Holmes: Glad you're digging it
	♥ 11:06pm Franco Twinkie: Fast forward to 1968: The morning after Robert Kennedy was murdered some kid in my mechanical drawing class said he was glad Bobby Kennedy was killed. The next period was P.E. My friend Mike and I beat the shit out of him behind the gym.
	11:07pm Bri The Beatnik: That’s messed up. Why would he be glad Bobby Kennedy died?
	♥ 11:09pm coelacanth∅: okay Franco you redeemed yourself for the nixon button
	♥ 11:09pm Franco Twinkie: I will answer that question with a question, Bri. How old are you?
	11:09pm Dean: "Why would he be glad Bobby Kennedy died?" Trust me. If you grew up during those years, you know that many people wanted him dead.
	11:09pm Bri The Beatnik: 18
	♥ 11:11pm coelacanth∅: Bri you're awesome! certainly one of the youngest regular wfmu listeners
	11:11pm Bri The Beatnik: Thank you Coel! :)
	11:11pm Carmichael: And I am the oldest.
	♥ 11:11pm coelacanth∅: (aside from children who listen because their parents have it on)
	11:13pm Bri The Beatnik: How old are you Carmichael?
	♥ 11:13pm coelacanth∅: Carmichael you are not! (i don't think) aren't you closing in on retirement in 2-3 years? i know there are folks in the upper 60s at least
	♥ 11:14pm Franco Twinkie: Dean said why perfectly Bri. The '60]s, like now, were out of control. fighting in the streets, the police beating the crap out of any one who defied them ect,ect. Bobby stood with the farm workers.
	11:14pm Carmichael: The Old Codger was a freshman when I was a senior.
	11:16pm Carmichael: This excellent music, Kris. Funky.
	11:16pm Bri The Beatnik: The ‘60s was a really messed up time. :( Honestly I think that’s a dumb reason to kill someone.
	11:18pm Carmichael: Imagine protests like this going on for 2 years or more. EVERY DAY. That was the 60s.
	♥ 11:18pm northguineahills: wait, there is someone younger then me here?!!! :) I remember when the chatboard came online, I was on the younger end, and then Bronwyn and Keilidh came along, even younger then I (and then a decade and a half happened, and I'm surprisingly, average aged).
	♥ 11:18pm coelacanth∅: i'm 99% positive i know the true identity of the old codger and he's up there but still not as aged as some comment boarders
	11:19pm Dean: I'll be 61 in July.
	11:19pm Bri The Beatnik: You’re younger than my dad!
	♥ 11:20pm coelacanth∅: Keilidh was 15 (i think) when she got her first show ...and ngh maybe Kris is younger than you?
	♥ 11:20pm Franco Twinkie: Do you have a boyfriend Bri? The reason I ask is you were a 18 year old guy, chances are you were scared shitless you were going to be sent to die in the jungles of Vietnam.
	♥ 11:21pm northguineahills: I believe there are only 12 or so djs still spinning the platters since since wfmu went online in '98 (including the funky godfather of this stream). yeah, Kris is yonger then I. (I was 22 when I started to stream wfmu).
	11:21pm Bri The Beatnik: No I don’t
	♥ 11:21pm northguineahills: and I remember Keilidh's first debut...
	🥁 ♥ 11:21pm Kris Holmes: I'm 41
	11:22pm Carmichael: My SSN is 8.
	♥ 11:22pm coelacanth∅: hahaha
	11:22pm Dean: That, Carmichael, is funny.
	🥁 ♥ 11:22pm Kris Holmes: LOL
	♥ 11:22pm coelacanth∅: well then the old codger IS older than you. his is 1!
	♥ 11:23pm coelacanth∅: i Love Irma!
	11:23pm Dean: Look, read this: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/05/1968-and-2020-lessons-from-americas-worst-year-so-far/612415/
	♥ 11:24pm northguineahills: I'm barely older then Kris (44). I've been listening to WFMU for 22 years, and the first two and the last four were outsid of NYC. @Carmichael: Montgomery Burns SS# is 000-00-002 (Theodore Roosevelt got #1)
	♥ 11:25pm Franco Twinkie: It was a scary time. On WFMU lots of folks are always tripping out with all the great music, but not bothering to mention how frightening things were.
	♥ 11:27pm chresti: Thanks Kris! Night everyone!
	♥ 11:27pm northguineahills: I used to play golf as a kid, now I play disc golf and mini-golf. La yustia! (espanol, homey...!) ;)
	11:28pm Dean: Not just were, Franco. Are, too.
	♥ 11:28pm northguineahills: I don't know chicano Spanish, just Hidalguense, Neuvo Leonese, y DF espanol.
	♥ 11:29pm northguineahills: franco is our residential chicano linguist...
	♥ 11:29pm coelacanth∅: g'night chresti
	🥁 ♥ 11:29pm Kris Holmes: Night Chresti
	♥ 11:29pm Franco Twinkie: Are we switching to Spanish? How 'bout Viva La Huelga!
	🥁 ♥ 11:30pm Kris Holmes: Yeah I butchered that one
	11:30pm Carmichael: Hi/bye, chresti.
	11:34pm Carmichael: Perkins had his big break on national TV, but was interrupted when JFK was killed.
	♥ 11:34pm northguineahills: @franco: espanol, que chido mi pinche! sonidos de largo camino s casa! (My wife and her friend's Mexican slang can be offensive to my Cuban friends, it's weird how that works, and make watching peliculas en espanol lastimar mi cerebro, so being gringo, I stick to Spanglish....
	♥ 11:37pm Franco Twinkie: When I was a property manager, I was dealing with tenants from all over Latin America, and believe me, they all hated each other.
	11:37pm Dean: I'm still laughing about Carmichael's joke about SSN.
	11:38pm Bri The Beatnik: Just finished reading that article Dean!
	♥ 11:39pm Mr. Pumpy: Hall, Kris and the seekers of the 7"!
	11:39pm Dean: It's a decent account, Bri.
	♥ 11:39pm Mr. Pumpy: Hall??! Whaaaa?
	11:40pm Bri The Beatnik: Hey Pumpy!
	♥ 11:40pm Mr. Pumpy: Bri, how goeth?
	11:40pm Bri The Beatnik: I’m good! And you?
	11:41pm Bri The Beatnik: And Dean, it was! I already knew quite a bit about the ‘60s through my dad and my interest in that time because of the music and the hippies. It really influenced my political beliefs today. This has been an extension!
	♥ 11:42pm Mr. Pumpy: Yeah...not too bad. Things are looking up, dare I say?
	11:42pm Bri The Beatnik: For sure Pumpy!
	♥ 11:43pm Mr. Pumpy: My political beliefs have been influenced by looking at what people do. And, also why they do it...to be fair. But hey, they gotta come from somewhere!
	11:43pm Bri The Beatnik: True
	♥ 11:43pm coelacanth∅: hey Mr.P!
	♥ 11:44pm Mr. Pumpy: I wrote that because you got me to thinking where mine came from!
	11:44pm Carmichael: This sounds a little like Ti-ni-nee-na-nu.
	11:44pm Bri The Beatnik: That’s cool Mr Pumpy!
	♥ 11:44pm Mr. Pumpy: Coel in da hay-owzzz. What up!?
	11:45pm Carmichael: Man, that was hard to spell on a phone.
	♥ 11:46pm coelacanth∅: i think most of the foundation of my political beliefs came from music...and star trek!
	11:47pm Bri The Beatnik: Cool Coel!
	♥ 11:49pm Franco Twinkie: Spock as the impartial sage/strategist.
	♥ 11:50pm Mr. Pumpy: Star Trek is all anyone really needs. Roddenberry should have won a Pulitzer prize.
	♥ 11:51pm Mr. Pumpy: Were Flo & Eddie on that Eldees single? Awesome vocals.
	♥ 11:51pm Franco Twinkie: As a kid I could never decide who I liked better - Spock or Frank Zappa.
	11:52pm Bri The Beatnik: Haha I like that Franco!
	♥ 11:52pm coelacanth∅: Franco my teachers in elementary school got a kick out of my frequent use of words like "probable" and "logical" ...and "asinine" -but i got that from my mother!
	🥁 ♥ 11:53pm Kris Holmes: No that's a vocal group out of Detroit, Jay Dilla's Dad
	♥ 11:53pm Franco Twinkie: Seriously! Frank scarred people with his views in the '60's.
	♥ 11:54pm coelacanth∅: Pumpy @11.50 or nobel peace prize!
	11:54pm Bri The Beatnik: Hands up
	11:54pm Bri The Beatnik: I bet, with songs like “Trouble everyday”
	♥ 11:55pm Franco Twinkie: YUP.
	11:55pm Carmichael: I remember the lines from the Martin Mull movie Serial: In an insane society, the sane man must appear insane. Hey that’s pretty good. Where’d you hear that? Star Trek. God, I miss that show.
	♥ 11:55pm coelacanth∅: (just listened to freak out today Franco...focusing on "it can't happen here")
	11:55pm Bri The Beatnik: I love that line where he says “There’s many time I wish I wasn’t white”
	11:56pm Bri The Beatnik: Love that line about the insane society Carmichael!
	11:57pm Carmichael: There’s no way to delay that trouble coming every day.
	♥ 11:57pm coelacanth∅: ...yup. i don't love the album as a whole, but trouble every day, it can't happen here and return of the son of the monster magnet really blew me away
	♥ 11:57pm Franco Twinkie: Oh yeah, Coel. During the Riots in '92 we we listening to Freak Out while people were burning the palm trees on the next street.
	🥁 ♥ 11:58pm WR: Thank you Kris. Nice ride tonight.
	11:58pm Carmichael: It’s a funny movie. Dated, but funny.
	11:58pm Bri The Beatnik: Return of the son of Monster Magnet is my favorite!
	🥁 ♥ 11:58pm Kris Holmes: Thanks everyone. Remember, be anti-racist & Black Lives Matter!!
	11:59pm Carmichael: God damn right.
	♥ 11:59pm Franco Twinkie: iViva La Huelga!
	🥁 ♥ 11:59pm WR: Laters all you folks. Love ya all.
	11:59pm Bri The Beatnik: Of course Kris!
	11:59pm Bri The Beatnik: Love ya WR!
	♥ 11:59pm northguineahills: @Bri: There is Kevin Ayer's "Colores de Delores" (which features who's who of everyone in the Brit folk/free jazz/experinental/electronic scen in the 60s that goes: "White is the color of night When there's nobody there, And you sit in your chair, Getting drunk on despair. Red is the color it's said That can drive you insane With pleasure or pain It depends on your head. Brown is the color of skin That I'd like to be in, 'Cause it doesn't feel right To be colored so white. Blue is the color of sky And I won't even try To explain how or why, I'll just show you the sky Just show you the sky"
	♥ 12:00am coelacanth∅: Thanks Kris! take care everyone be safe and stay strong!
	♥ 12:00am northguineahills: Thanks, Kris!

	♥ 10:06pm chresti: Hello Kris and homies, tell it like it is.
	♥ 10:07pm Doug Schulkind: Spin truth to power, brother Kris.
	10:07pm CC: what blows my mind is that more people have died in the last 3 months than died in the entire Vietnam Korean and Iraq conflicts put together!!!
	10:08pm CC: going out and exposing yourself to such crowds is idiotic!!!...simple!!
	🥁 ♥ 10:08pm WR: Thank you for speaking anti-racism. Yes, most all your listeners likely agree but need to keep the anti-racism energy growing.
	♥ 10:09pm Julie: @CC those numbers are only counting American lives in those wars
	♥ 10:09pm Julie: I have friends out there, they are being as cautious as they can, wearing their masks
	10:10pm CC: Good point, Julie!!!
	10:11pm CC: I was planning on staying in the house until next summer anyway!!!
	♥ 10:13pm Julie: being afraid of the virus has made me understand what it's like to possibly risk your life every time you leave the house. Some of these people didn't even leave their homes!
	♥ 10:13pm Julie: thank you, Kris
	♥ 10:14pm coelacanth∅: rest in peace all victims of police mureder
	♥ 10:14pm coelacanth∅: (?... murder)
	🥁 ♥ 10:18pm Kris Holmes: Hi guys!
	♥ 10:18pm coelacanth∅: oh, and Julie @10.03 haha!
	🥁 ♥ 10:20pm Kris Holmes: It's been a heavy week
	♥ 10:20pm Julie: Kris how is SA holding up? I have family living there but I know they wouldn't be anywhere near a protest.
	♥ 10:20pm Franco Twinkie: Well shit, here it is. What we all knew what was coming. Right here, right now.
	🥁 ♥ 10:21pm Kris Holmes: It's pretty quiet comparatively Julie, some protests on the weekend, small skirmishes, not too epic
	♥ 10:22pm Franco Twinkie: This place(L.A.) is going nuts.
	♥ 10:23pm Julie: I'm not near much of what is going on in NYC though some of the looting has too close for comfort
	♥ 10:23pm coelacanth∅: i think most americans were (and even now still are) THAT clueless that this is taking them COMPLETELY off-guard
	♥ 10:24pm Franco Twinkie: The Gamblers! Elliot Ingber on guitar.
	♥ 10:24pm Matt from New Orleans: It’s been relatively quiet here as well. The police have been allowing the protesters to march wherever they want and there hasn’t really been much property damage. The protesters took over the interstate this evening and there was no attempt to stop them. I guess it helps that there’s far less people on the road.
	♥ 10:25pm chresti: Back to regular programming now, no looters, shooters, chases, as of yet tonight.
	🥁 ♥ 10:27pm WR: Matt, thanks for the NOLA report. I was wondering, have 2 brothers still in NOLA but haven't spoken with them since this started.
	♥ 10:28pm Franco Twinkie: I like this aggro trip you're on Kris.
	10:29pm CC: It's like a big concert... everybody's been at home so long they're bored and they need a good reason to go out and spread the virus???... death turns a blind eye to justified intentions!!!
	10:30pm fleep: It is the need to feel part of something. But what a sad thing to be part of.
	♥ 10:31pm Franco Twinkie: Marty, I love you!
	🥁 ♥ 10:31pm WR: When is this Marty Balin from?
	♥ 10:32pm Franco Twinkie: SF. me thinks.
	♥ 10:33pm Matt from New Orleans: 1962
	🥁 ♥ 10:34pm WR: Discogs says 1962 for the Balin.
	♥ 10:37pm Matt from New Orleans: Kris you were right about Bruce
	♥ 10:37pm chresti: The looting last night was up close and personal, with a close-up of some white guy torching a store after everyone finished looting.
	10:40pm Bri The Beatnik: I like this version!
	♥ 10:40pm Matt from New Orleans: It’s no Billy Stewart but their version is quality.
	🥁 ♥ 10:41pm Kris Holmes: It's rawerer
	♥ 10:41pm Franco Twinkie: Right now Family Feud is on the TV, it's white people against black people, I'm not kidding!
	♥ 10:41pm Matt from New Orleans: Heard the Billy version way too many times listening to Bob Abrahamian
	♥ 10:41pm coelacanth∅: just listened to this yesterday - except the Slim Smith version
	🥁 ♥ 10:41pm Kris Holmes: A friend's record store will not be reopening after being damaged saturday night in Richmond :(
	10:42pm Bri The Beatnik: :(
	10:42pm Bri The Beatnik: That’s horrible!
	♥ 10:42pm Matt from New Orleans: VA or Bay Area?
	♥ 10:43pm Julie: oh no how awful
	🥁 ♥ 10:44pm Kris Holmes: VA. He is upset understandably but publicly went on record saying he is more upset about the political/racial situation that caused his store to be damaged. Which I applaud.
	10:45pm CC: If you want to make America great again you have to start by voting Democrat!!!... then weed out all the bad Democratic apples!!!... Republicans should all be cast out into the darkness forever though!!!
	10:46pm Bri The Beatnik: I agree with you CC about weeding out the bad Democratic apples!
	10:47pm Bri The Beatnik: I’m a Democrat btw
	🥁 ♥ 10:48pm Kris Holmes: I can't legally vote so please vote wisely for me in November!
	10:48pm Bri The Beatnik: Will do!
	♥ 10:50pm Franco Twinkie: To bad punch ballots seem to be extinct or I would do your portrait in little holes, Kris.
	♥ 10:50pm Matt from New Orleans: You actually went into your own records tonight and not your selling pile
	♥ 10:51pm coelacanth∅: i don't trust any of the democratic presidential candidates since Jimmy Carter (and i was too young to vote at that time) - but i despise with all of my heart every republican candidate in my lifetime.
	10:51pm Carmichael: Heya Kris and folks.
	♥ 10:53pm Matt from New Orleans: You forgot Alaska Kris
	♥ 10:54pm coelacanth∅: hey Carm
	♥ 10:54pm Franco Twinkie: Coel, Jimmy Carter was my first presidential election and I wrecked into a truck on the way to vote!
	10:55pm Bri The Beatnik: Kinda sad but true Coel
	♥ 10:55pm coelacanth∅: Franco did you take that as an omen and vote contrary to your original plan?!
	♥ 10:56pm coelacanth∅: (actually i hope you weren't hurt)
	🥁 ♥ 10:57pm Kris Holmes: Matt, actually some of these are out because they'll be hitting eBay in the next couple of weeks! A last hurrah.
	♥ 10:57pm Little Danny: Hey y'all
	10:57pm CC: if you give Joe Biden a chance... I promise he won't let you down!!!
	10:59pm Bri The Beatnik: I’m mostly economically democrat
	🥁 ♥ 10:59pm Kris Holmes: Hi Dan!
	♥ 10:59pm Matt from New Orleans: Fair enough
	♥ 10:59pm coelacanth∅: we'll see,CC. i don't like him and i don't trust him. but i imagine it'll be the usual "better of 2 evils" story
	10:59pm CC: I think Andrew Cuomo would make a fantastic President also!!!
	11:00pm Bri The Beatnik: Bernie would’ve been great
	♥ 11:01pm Franco Twinkie: No, but this really happened: My parents were Kennedy Democrats in 1960. I was five years old. We were at some shopping center and there was a republican crap table and I insisted on getting a Nixon button. The next day I was standing in front of our house with the button pinned to the front of my shirt and some older kid walking by slugged me in the face.
	11:01pm CC: I love Bernie but he don't know how to make anybody come together!!!
	🥁 ♥ 11:01pm WR: Mr. Bobby Mitchell, it has been a while since I've listened to him. Thank you.
	🥁 ♥ 11:01pm Kris Holmes: 2020: "A gunshot to the eye vs A gunshot to your leg"
	♥ 11:02pm coelacanth∅: Bri, yes -would've been an actual "i want this one" vote!
	♥ 11:02pm Matt from New Orleans: Well you do have a punchable face Franco
	♥ 11:02pm Matt from New Orleans: Kris I’m heading out but I’ll be listening
	11:02pm Bri The Beatnik: If only there was a major labor party in America
	♥ 11:03pm Matt from New Orleans: Have a good night everyone
	11:03pm Bri The Beatnik: You too Matt!
	11:03pm Dean: I have never voted, never registered. And I never will until there is a genuine possibility of a chance to elect capable politicians. I am amazed at the utter gullibility of Americans. We want so badly to believe the shit that lying monsters like George Washington -- never mind Donald Trump -- have routinely dished out to us. Stop it, already people. There is no way out.
	🥁 ♥ 11:03pm WR: G'night Matt.
	🥁 ♥ 11:03pm Kris Holmes: night Matt
	♥ 11:03pm coelacanth∅: haha Franco! you earned it! (and i'm glad you weren't hurt in the crash)
	♥ 11:05pm coelacanth∅: 'night Matt
	11:05pm CC: Great show!!!...Cheerz!!
	🥁 ♥ 11:06pm Kris Holmes: Glad you're digging it
	♥ 11:06pm Franco Twinkie: Fast forward to 1968: The morning after Robert Kennedy was murdered some kid in my mechanical drawing class said he was glad Bobby Kennedy was killed. The next period was P.E. My friend Mike and I beat the shit out of him behind the gym.
	11:07pm Bri The Beatnik: That’s messed up. Why would he be glad Bobby Kennedy died?
	♥ 11:09pm coelacanth∅: okay Franco you redeemed yourself for the nixon button
	♥ 11:09pm Franco Twinkie: I will answer that question with a question, Bri. How old are you?
	11:09pm Dean: "Why would he be glad Bobby Kennedy died?" Trust me. If you grew up during those years, you know that many people wanted him dead.
	11:09pm Bri The Beatnik: 18
	♥ 11:11pm coelacanth∅: Bri you're awesome! certainly one of the youngest regular wfmu listeners
	11:11pm Bri The Beatnik: Thank you Coel! :)
	11:11pm Carmichael: And I am the oldest.
	♥ 11:11pm coelacanth∅: (aside from children who listen because their parents have it on)
	11:13pm Bri The Beatnik: How old are you Carmichael?
	♥ 11:13pm coelacanth∅: Carmichael you are not! (i don't think) aren't you closing in on retirement in 2-3 years? i know there are folks in the upper 60s at least
	♥ 11:14pm Franco Twinkie: Dean said why perfectly Bri. The '60]s, like now, were out of control. fighting in the streets, the police beating the crap out of any one who defied them ect,ect. Bobby stood with the farm workers.
	11:14pm Carmichael: The Old Codger was a freshman when I was a senior.
	11:16pm Carmichael: This excellent music, Kris. Funky.
	11:16pm Bri The Beatnik: The ‘60s was a really messed up time. :( Honestly I think that’s a dumb reason to kill someone.
	11:18pm Carmichael: Imagine protests like this going on for 2 years or more. EVERY DAY. That was the 60s.
	♥ 11:18pm northguineahills: wait, there is someone younger then me here?!!! :) I remember when the chatboard came online, I was on the younger end, and then Bronwyn and Keilidh came along, even younger then I (and then a decade and a half happened, and I'm surprisingly, average aged).
	♥ 11:18pm coelacanth∅: i'm 99% positive i know the true identity of the old codger and he's up there but still not as aged as some comment boarders
	11:19pm Dean: I'll be 61 in July.
	11:19pm Bri The Beatnik: You’re younger than my dad!
	♥ 11:20pm coelacanth∅: Keilidh was 15 (i think) when she got her first show ...and ngh maybe Kris is younger than you?
	♥ 11:20pm Franco Twinkie: Do you have a boyfriend Bri? The reason I ask is you were a 18 year old guy, chances are you were scared shitless you were going to be sent to die in the jungles of Vietnam.
	♥ 11:21pm northguineahills: I believe there are only 12 or so djs still spinning the platters since since wfmu went online in '98 (including the funky godfather of this stream). yeah, Kris is yonger then I. (I was 22 when I started to stream wfmu).
	11:21pm Bri The Beatnik: No I don’t
	♥ 11:21pm northguineahills: and I remember Keilidh's first debut...
	🥁 ♥ 11:21pm Kris Holmes: I'm 41
	11:22pm Carmichael: My SSN is 8.
	♥ 11:22pm coelacanth∅: hahaha
	11:22pm Dean: That, Carmichael, is funny.
	🥁 ♥ 11:22pm Kris Holmes: LOL
	♥ 11:22pm coelacanth∅: well then the old codger IS older than you. his is 1!
	♥ 11:23pm coelacanth∅: i Love Irma!
	11:23pm Dean: Look, read this: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/05/1968-and-2020-lessons-from-americas-worst-year-so-far/612415/
	♥ 11:24pm northguineahills: I'm barely older then Kris (44). I've been listening to WFMU for 22 years, and the first two and the last four were outsid of NYC. @Carmichael: Montgomery Burns SS# is 000-00-002 (Theodore Roosevelt got #1)
	♥ 11:25pm Franco Twinkie: It was a scary time. On WFMU lots of folks are always tripping out with all the great music, but not bothering to mention how frightening things were.
	♥ 11:27pm chresti: Thanks Kris! Night everyone!
	♥ 11:27pm northguineahills: I used to play golf as a kid, now I play disc golf and mini-golf. La yustia! (espanol, homey...!) ;)
	11:28pm Dean: Not just were, Franco. Are, too.
	♥ 11:28pm northguineahills: I don't know chicano Spanish, just Hidalguense, Neuvo Leonese, y DF espanol.
	♥ 11:29pm northguineahills: franco is our residential chicano linguist...
	♥ 11:29pm coelacanth∅: g'night chresti
	🥁 ♥ 11:29pm Kris Holmes: Night Chresti
	♥ 11:29pm Franco Twinkie: Are we switching to Spanish? How 'bout Viva La Huelga!
	🥁 ♥ 11:30pm Kris Holmes: Yeah I butchered that one
	11:30pm Carmichael: Hi/bye, chresti.
	11:34pm Carmichael: Perkins had his big break on national TV, but was interrupted when JFK was killed.
	♥ 11:34pm northguineahills: @franco: espanol, que chido mi pinche! sonidos de largo camino s casa! (My wife and her friend's Mexican slang can be offensive to my Cuban friends, it's weird how that works, and make watching peliculas en espanol lastimar mi cerebro, so being gringo, I stick to Spanglish....
	♥ 11:37pm Franco Twinkie: When I was a property manager, I was dealing with tenants from all over Latin America, and believe me, they all hated each other.
	11:37pm Dean: I'm still laughing about Carmichael's joke about SSN.
	11:38pm Bri The Beatnik: Just finished reading that article Dean!
	♥ 11:39pm Mr. Pumpy: Hall, Kris and the seekers of the 7"!
	11:39pm Dean: It's a decent account, Bri.
	♥ 11:39pm Mr. Pumpy: Hall??! Whaaaa?
	11:40pm Bri The Beatnik: Hey Pumpy!
	♥ 11:40pm Mr. Pumpy: Bri, how goeth?
	11:40pm Bri The Beatnik: I’m good! And you?
	11:41pm Bri The Beatnik: And Dean, it was! I already knew quite a bit about the ‘60s through my dad and my interest in that time because of the music and the hippies. It really influenced my political beliefs today. This has been an extension!
	♥ 11:42pm Mr. Pumpy: Yeah...not too bad. Things are looking up, dare I say?
	11:42pm Bri The Beatnik: For sure Pumpy!
	♥ 11:43pm Mr. Pumpy: My political beliefs have been influenced by looking at what people do. And, also why they do it...to be fair. But hey, they gotta come from somewhere!
	11:43pm Bri The Beatnik: True
	♥ 11:43pm coelacanth∅: hey Mr.P!
	♥ 11:44pm Mr. Pumpy: I wrote that because you got me to thinking where mine came from!
	11:44pm Carmichael: This sounds a little like Ti-ni-nee-na-nu.
	11:44pm Bri The Beatnik: That’s cool Mr Pumpy!
	♥ 11:44pm Mr. Pumpy: Coel in da hay-owzzz. What up!?
	11:45pm Carmichael: Man, that was hard to spell on a phone.
	♥ 11:46pm coelacanth∅: i think most of the foundation of my political beliefs came from music...and star trek!
	11:47pm Bri The Beatnik: Cool Coel!
	♥ 11:49pm Franco Twinkie: Spock as the impartial sage/strategist.
	♥ 11:50pm Mr. Pumpy: Star Trek is all anyone really needs. Roddenberry should have won a Pulitzer prize.
	♥ 11:51pm Mr. Pumpy: Were Flo & Eddie on that Eldees single? Awesome vocals.
	♥ 11:51pm Franco Twinkie: As a kid I could never decide who I liked better - Spock or Frank Zappa.
	11:52pm Bri The Beatnik: Haha I like that Franco!
	♥ 11:52pm coelacanth∅: Franco my teachers in elementary school got a kick out of my frequent use of words like "probable" and "logical" ...and "asinine" -but i got that from my mother!
	🥁 ♥ 11:53pm Kris Holmes: No that's a vocal group out of Detroit, Jay Dilla's Dad
	♥ 11:53pm Franco Twinkie: Seriously! Frank scarred people with his views in the '60's.
	♥ 11:54pm coelacanth∅: Pumpy @11.50 or nobel peace prize!
	11:54pm Bri The Beatnik: Hands up
	11:54pm Bri The Beatnik: I bet, with songs like “Trouble everyday”
	♥ 11:55pm Franco Twinkie: YUP.
	11:55pm Carmichael: I remember the lines from the Martin Mull movie Serial: In an insane society, the sane man must appear insane. Hey that’s pretty good. Where’d you hear that? Star Trek. God, I miss that show.
	♥ 11:55pm coelacanth∅: (just listened to freak out today Franco...focusing on "it can't happen here")
	11:55pm Bri The Beatnik: I love that line where he says “There’s many time I wish I wasn’t white”
	11:56pm Bri The Beatnik: Love that line about the insane society Carmichael!
	11:57pm Carmichael: There’s no way to delay that trouble coming every day.
	♥ 11:57pm coelacanth∅: ...yup. i don't love the album as a whole, but trouble every day, it can't happen here and return of the son of the monster magnet really blew me away
	♥ 11:57pm Franco Twinkie: Oh yeah, Coel. During the Riots in '92 we we listening to Freak Out while people were burning the palm trees on the next street.
	🥁 ♥ 11:58pm WR: Thank you Kris. Nice ride tonight.

	11:59pm Bri The Beatnik: Of course Kris!
	11:59pm Bri The Beatnik: Love ya WR!
	♥ 11:59pm northguineahills: @Bri: There is Kevin Ayer's "Colores de Delores" (which features who's who of everyone in the Brit folk/free jazz/experinental/electronic scen in the 60s that goes: "White is the color of night When there's nobody there, And you sit in your chair, Getting drunk on despair. Red is the color it's said That can drive you insane With pleasure or pain It depends on your head. Brown is the color of skin That I'd like to be in, 'Cause it doesn't feel right To be colored so white. Blue is the color of sky And I won't even try To explain how or why, I'll just show you the sky Just show you the sky"
	♥ 12:00am coelacanth∅: Thanks Kris! take care everyone be safe and stay strong!
