	12:31am Michael Shelley: You really need the Flintstone feet

	12:33am mr. zip: i had a couple of freakbikes i had to ride with those flintstone feet
	12:34am Mike W: we’re all individuals! grateful for these songs tonight
	12:34am Ira: @Hoboken Jack: As John & Yoko nearly put it--it's former Yankees infielder Pat Kelly if you want it.
	12:34am karlward: All the deep cuts, none of the annoying facts
	12:39am ?: Had to look up Splendora, never heard of that one!
	12:42am rw: Evening! Think for yourself? I don't get it.
	12:43am Roberto: I only have eyes for you -- as opposed to feet, or some other body part.
	12:44am Roberto: No wait, that would be "I have only eyes for you."
	12:45am Hoboken Jack: Not to confuse you, ?, but a Splendora was an Individual and Mike W was not.
	12:45am Ira: @Roberto, these long songs give you plenty of time to figure things out.
	12:49am Roberto: I was going to say, that particular version gave me ample time to reevaluate all my life goals.
	12:51am mr. zip: i only have tongues for you
	12:51am Mike W: ? and the Question Marks
	12:51am karlward: This is the greatest set of Minutemen covers I have ever heard assembled by anyone.
	12:56am mr. zip: ahhh it must be the blonde on blonde allusions that were getting to my subconscious
	12:57am coelacanth∅: rw haha!
	12:59am Rick G: Oh man I miss SCTV
	1:01am spodiodi: blow him up real good
	1:01am Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): hey kids, keep it down!
	1:02am mariano: SCTV is brilliant. Good number of sketches and even episodes on YT. It's amazing what range they all had as performers.
	1:03am Ken From Hyde Park: Granny! Your card arrived today. Thank you / e / em!
	1:05am Mike W: tired of this DJ treating me like i don’t exist
	1:06am Mike W: i am listening and i am real (and fantastische)
	1:09am Ira: Mike W., that's EXACTLY what a bot would say!
	1:12am northguineahills: This Alvin Singleton is brilliant. And why haven't I heard of Lester Bowie's Brass Fantasy, when I have much other stuff he's done!
	1:14am northguineahills: When I was in HS, SCTV was on the local PBS channel.' Horse Lords, aural warriors of psyche steppe!
	1:16am northguineahills: @Roberto 12:43: Don't kink shame me!
	1:20am mariano: The Jerks!
	1:21am mariano: ngh: Yeah, if that was the mid-late 70s you're talking about I was in elementary, discovered SCTV and Python at the same time. God bless 70s PBS.
	1:23am Ira: SCTV was on NBC in New York. I was working at Maxwell's at a certain point in its run, before we had a VCR. Georgia used to record the show on an audio casette for me. That's how I experienced the William B. Show for the first time.
	1:26am northguineahills: @mariano: I was in HS in the 90s, that's when I discovered SCTV and Python (actually, my HS Philosophy teacher showed us the Holy Grail)
	1:29am northguineahills: (discovered SCTV/Python on PBS)
	1:31am Hubig Pie: Diggin the hippie country vibe
	1:31am mariano: Ira: That NBC show was the 90 minute one, right? ngh: Oh, ok. Good to know it was still playing in the 90s.
	1:32am northguineahills: instead of the 7 degrees of Kevin Bacon, I play 7 degrees of Ira. And since I played w/ Daniel Carter....
	1:32am Ira: 90 minutes of SCTV, yes. Not sure it was the 90s, though.
	1:33am Ira: @Northg... , that's 1 degree of separation.
	1:33am Richy4619: oooOoooO mylord yes down at ol starkville live from san quentin
	1:34am Richy4619: FREE SAN QUENTIN PRISONERS !!!! COVID-19 IS KILLING THEM ALIVE. ITS NO FAIR MAN
	1:34am Hubig Pie: Gettin' some lottery tickets, some ice cold wine and some chewin tobbaco
	1:34am northguineahills: @Ira: I played w/ Daniel about 9 times. He's one of the special people of the universe. And yes, I have your recordings w/ him.
	1:35am Chop Scott: Growing up outside of Chicago in the late '70s SCTV aired following SNL. That was my Saturday night, before having a driver's license. Brilliant show! -The Plasmatics on Fishin' Musician. Guy Caballero, Brini Sclaroso!
	1:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: i was junior high school age when I saw Python"s Mollusk sketch on PBS. For me that's 1977 maybe - not so long after they were actually on. I mean I remember which sketch - & my sense of humor has never been the same. Beatles of Comedy.
	1:37am northguineahills: I was once returning from my office job, and had just gone through a break-up, and I bumped into Daniel in the Union Sq station, and w/o a word, he gave me a big hug....
	1:45am coelacanth∅: that's Johnny Cash. he also gives the tree-cutting machine shit for not answering him upon his greeting, in the song about john henry
	1:45am mariano: Wait, there's a longtime Accu member who's related to Jorma Kaukonen by marriage, and of course I can't remember who it is. Maybe coela? Chop Scott: Bobby Bittman!
	1:47am Agent Peter: "We now join the Sammy Maudlin Show already in progress..."
	1:47am coelacanth∅: (der, not a tree cutting machine but an automatic railroad spike driving hammer. -got my legends mixed up)
	1:48am coelacanth∅: not i, mariano
	1:50am mariano: Alright, I'm tired of screwing around. One of you is related to Jorma Kaukonen, and by God you're going to fess up! You are all presumed relatives of Jorma Kaukonen till I get to the bottom of this.
	1:52am northguineahills: I always wanted the Dell-Vikings play w/ the Del Fuegos...
	1:53am Ira: I once walked past Grace Slick on Broadway, does that count? (I didn't see her. My head was down. I was informed about it--and crushed--later.)
	2:04am coelacanth∅: okay -i am indirectly related to Jorma.
	2:08am mariano: That's cool, Ira. If I've ever completely missed some mega star on the street, I don't wanna know about it. I'm in my own world when I'm walking, and I'm not that good at facial recognition anyway. Hah! I knew it, coela! Wait, I don't know what to believe anymore.
	2:09am chaos_in_la_la: That Treniers tune reallly (with three L's) makes me want to go get a bag of potato chips.
	2:10am Joe B: SCTV network 90 ended in 1983, then they had one season on Cinemax
	2:12am Ira: Thanks, Joe. I don't think my career behind the soundboard at Maxwell's made it into the 90s either.
	2:12am northguineahills: I'm the same, mariano. I once was returning from a sound gallery on 7th Ave, and my youth minister from FL kept shouting my name before I looked up. (I grew up in a fundie household, at least that guy was cool)
	2:13am coelacanth∅: i've had conversations with folks and been told of their identities afterword. some pretty big ones.
	2:14am northguineahills: (he turned me on to TMBG and IRS Recs before I knew what music was).
	2:16am mariano: We're fellow survivors of fundamentalism, ngh. Looking back I'm glad I had a glimpse into that world though because I know exactly what I'm dealing with. coela: Aaaaand..?
	2:16am Joe B: @Chop Scott - yeah the early SCTV seasons ran in 30 minute form sometimes after SNL, or on CH 9 in NY pre-NBC. It was kinda like the Capitol Records Beatles albums, but still a cool intro!
	2:17am chaos_in_la_la: So glad to hear some Pain Teens. Thank you.
	2:18am Joe B: Peppi had his son playing in The Good Rats toward the end
	2:18am Joe B: The Judds - mother/daughter combo
	2:19am Joe B: line I never thought I'd hear on FMU - we've talked enough about SCTV. SAY IT AIN'T SO!
	2:20am Georgia: Adam faith is from England
	2:22am Ira: Georgia, perhaps the character he was portraying in the song was Welsh?
	2:23am coelacanth∅: mariano i'm related to Jorma in the 7 degrees of separation way that ngh was talking about
	2:23am chaos_in_la_la: @ira ahahaha!
	2:25am Ira: Joe B., you're absolutely right. In other SCTV-related content, we watched Clifford a week or so ago. Funnier than ever.
	2:28am Ira: Hey . . . I found the name of that Matthew Shipp lp: The Piano Equation. Only 10 minutes late.
	2:33am coelacanth∅: my golden chariot is here Thanks Ira! Thanks magical crew! take care ever one 'night
	2:36am Joe B: This might be the only time I've not turned off a drum solo
	2:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: WFMU - keeping insomnia interesting for you...
	2:41am mariano: 'Night coela!
	2:41am phat: Sniff 'n' the Tears!
	2:41am mariano: ...or should I say coelakaukonen.
	2:42am Ira: I'm relieved to see that Mariano also doesn't know how to type the 0 with the slash through it.
	2:47am mariano: Haha! Whenever I use that O I copy it from his name. Ok, I don't know why I didn't learn this before, I'm like the special characters alt-code king. It's Alt + 0248 on a Windows machine: øøøøøøøøø -- feel free to copy and paste.
	2:52am northguineahills: @Ira: zero w/ a slash through, mathematically, null set, also the solo of Mika Vaino (of Pan Sonic)the somewhat club friendly experimental electronics.... tangental asides, Williams Parker is also an awesome human being...
	2:53am northguineahills: (Mika Vaino passed way too early)
	2:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Pizzicato - no anchovies.
	2:54am Ira: Thank you everyone for listening, and for commenting. I love doing this show every week. No anchovies?! Say it ain't so.
	2:54am spodiodi: thanks a lot Ira! goodnight all
	2:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I was into em actually but I don't eat animals now...
	2:56am mariano: Thank you Ira, thank you Skeletons, take care everyone!
	2:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Johnny Cash alone deserves Thanks Sir.
	2:57am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks and good night, Ira.
	2:57am Joe B: thanks Ira, great show
	2:58am chaos_in_la_la: thank you, real good set @Ira
	2:58am northguineahills: bravisimo, Ira!
	6:15am 12539: Archived thanks, Ira & crew.
	7:16am Jennica: Gotcha. "Where would we be without 'experts'?"

	12:44am Roberto: No wait, that would be "I have only eyes for you."
	12:45am Hoboken Jack: Not to confuse you, ?, but a Splendora was an Individual and Mike W was not.
	12:45am Ira: @Roberto, these long songs give you plenty of time to figure things out.
	12:49am Roberto: I was going to say, that particular version gave me ample time to reevaluate all my life goals.
	12:51am mr. zip: i only have tongues for you
	12:51am Mike W: ? and the Question Marks
	12:51am karlward: This is the greatest set of Minutemen covers I have ever heard assembled by anyone.
	12:56am mr. zip: ahhh it must be the blonde on blonde allusions that were getting to my subconscious
	12:57am coelacanth∅: rw haha!
	12:59am Rick G: Oh man I miss SCTV
	1:01am spodiodi: blow him up real good
	1:01am Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): hey kids, keep it down!
	1:02am mariano: SCTV is brilliant. Good number of sketches and even episodes on YT. It's amazing what range they all had as performers.
	1:03am Ken From Hyde Park: Granny! Your card arrived today. Thank you / e / em!
	1:05am Mike W: tired of this DJ treating me like i don’t exist
	1:06am Mike W: i am listening and i am real (and fantastische)
	1:09am Ira: Mike W., that's EXACTLY what a bot would say!
	1:12am northguineahills: This Alvin Singleton is brilliant. And why haven't I heard of Lester Bowie's Brass Fantasy, when I have much other stuff he's done!
	1:14am northguineahills: When I was in HS, SCTV was on the local PBS channel.' Horse Lords, aural warriors of psyche steppe!
	1:16am northguineahills: @Roberto 12:43: Don't kink shame me!
	1:20am mariano: The Jerks!
	1:21am mariano: ngh: Yeah, if that was the mid-late 70s you're talking about I was in elementary, discovered SCTV and Python at the same time. God bless 70s PBS.
	1:23am Ira: SCTV was on NBC in New York. I was working at Maxwell's at a certain point in its run, before we had a VCR. Georgia used to record the show on an audio casette for me. That's how I experienced the William B. Show for the first time.
	1:26am northguineahills: @mariano: I was in HS in the 90s, that's when I discovered SCTV and Python (actually, my HS Philosophy teacher showed us the Holy Grail)
	1:29am northguineahills: (discovered SCTV/Python on PBS)
	1:31am Hubig Pie: Diggin the hippie country vibe
	1:31am mariano: Ira: That NBC show was the 90 minute one, right? ngh: Oh, ok. Good to know it was still playing in the 90s.
	1:32am northguineahills: instead of the 7 degrees of Kevin Bacon, I play 7 degrees of Ira. And since I played w/ Daniel Carter....
	1:32am Ira: 90 minutes of SCTV, yes. Not sure it was the 90s, though.
	1:33am Ira: @Northg... , that's 1 degree of separation.
	1:33am Richy4619: oooOoooO mylord yes down at ol starkville live from san quentin
	1:34am Richy4619: FREE SAN QUENTIN PRISONERS !!!! COVID-19 IS KILLING THEM ALIVE. ITS NO FAIR MAN
	1:34am Hubig Pie: Gettin' some lottery tickets, some ice cold wine and some chewin tobbaco
	1:34am northguineahills: @Ira: I played w/ Daniel about 9 times. He's one of the special people of the universe. And yes, I have your recordings w/ him.
	1:35am Chop Scott: Growing up outside of Chicago in the late '70s SCTV aired following SNL. That was my Saturday night, before having a driver's license. Brilliant show! -The Plasmatics on Fishin' Musician. Guy Caballero, Brini Sclaroso!
	1:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: i was junior high school age when I saw Python"s Mollusk sketch on PBS. For me that's 1977 maybe - not so long after they were actually on. I mean I remember which sketch - & my sense of humor has never been the same. Beatles of Comedy.
	1:37am northguineahills: I was once returning from my office job, and had just gone through a break-up, and I bumped into Daniel in the Union Sq station, and w/o a word, he gave me a big hug....
	1:45am coelacanth∅: that's Johnny Cash. he also gives the tree-cutting machine shit for not answering him upon his greeting, in the song about john henry
	1:45am mariano: Wait, there's a longtime Accu member who's related to Jorma Kaukonen by marriage, and of course I can't remember who it is. Maybe coela? Chop Scott: Bobby Bittman!
	1:47am Agent Peter: "We now join the Sammy Maudlin Show already in progress..."
	1:47am coelacanth∅: (der, not a tree cutting machine but an automatic railroad spike driving hammer. -got my legends mixed up)
	1:48am coelacanth∅: not i, mariano
	1:50am mariano: Alright, I'm tired of screwing around. One of you is related to Jorma Kaukonen, and by God you're going to fess up! You are all presumed relatives of Jorma Kaukonen till I get to the bottom of this.
	1:52am northguineahills: I always wanted the Dell-Vikings play w/ the Del Fuegos...
	1:53am Ira: I once walked past Grace Slick on Broadway, does that count? (I didn't see her. My head was down. I was informed about it--and crushed--later.)
	2:04am coelacanth∅: okay -i am indirectly related to Jorma.
	2:08am mariano: That's cool, Ira. If I've ever completely missed some mega star on the street, I don't wanna know about it. I'm in my own world when I'm walking, and I'm not that good at facial recognition anyway. Hah! I knew it, coela! Wait, I don't know what to believe anymore.
	2:09am chaos_in_la_la: That Treniers tune reallly (with three L's) makes me want to go get a bag of potato chips.
	2:10am Joe B: SCTV network 90 ended in 1983, then they had one season on Cinemax
	2:12am Ira: Thanks, Joe. I don't think my career behind the soundboard at Maxwell's made it into the 90s either.
	2:12am northguineahills: I'm the same, mariano. I once was returning from a sound gallery on 7th Ave, and my youth minister from FL kept shouting my name before I looked up. (I grew up in a fundie household, at least that guy was cool)
	2:13am coelacanth∅: i've had conversations with folks and been told of their identities afterword. some pretty big ones.
	2:14am northguineahills: (he turned me on to TMBG and IRS Recs before I knew what music was).
	2:16am mariano: We're fellow survivors of fundamentalism, ngh. Looking back I'm glad I had a glimpse into that world though because I know exactly what I'm dealing with. coela: Aaaaand..?
	2:16am Joe B: @Chop Scott - yeah the early SCTV seasons ran in 30 minute form sometimes after SNL, or on CH 9 in NY pre-NBC. It was kinda like the Capitol Records Beatles albums, but still a cool intro!
	2:17am chaos_in_la_la: So glad to hear some Pain Teens. Thank you.
	2:18am Joe B: Peppi had his son playing in The Good Rats toward the end
	2:18am Joe B: The Judds - mother/daughter combo
	2:19am Joe B: line I never thought I'd hear on FMU - we've talked enough about SCTV. SAY IT AIN'T SO!
	2:20am Georgia: Adam faith is from England
	2:22am Ira: Georgia, perhaps the character he was portraying in the song was Welsh?
	2:23am coelacanth∅: mariano i'm related to Jorma in the 7 degrees of separation way that ngh was talking about
	2:23am chaos_in_la_la: @ira ahahaha!
	2:25am Ira: Joe B., you're absolutely right. In other SCTV-related content, we watched Clifford a week or so ago. Funnier than ever.
	2:28am Ira: Hey . . . I found the name of that Matthew Shipp lp: The Piano Equation. Only 10 minutes late.
	2:33am coelacanth∅: my golden chariot is here Thanks Ira! Thanks magical crew! take care ever one 'night
	2:36am Joe B: This might be the only time I've not turned off a drum solo
	2:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: WFMU - keeping insomnia interesting for you...
	2:41am mariano: 'Night coela!
	2:41am phat: Sniff 'n' the Tears!
	2:41am mariano: ...or should I say coelakaukonen.
	2:42am Ira: I'm relieved to see that Mariano also doesn't know how to type the 0 with the slash through it.
	2:47am mariano: Haha! Whenever I use that O I copy it from his name. Ok, I don't know why I didn't learn this before, I'm like the special characters alt-code king. It's Alt + 0248 on a Windows machine: øøøøøøøøø -- feel free to copy and paste.
	2:52am northguineahills: @Ira: zero w/ a slash through, mathematically, null set, also the solo of Mika Vaino (of Pan Sonic)the somewhat club friendly experimental electronics.... tangental asides, Williams Parker is also an awesome human being...
	2:53am northguineahills: (Mika Vaino passed way too early)
	2:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Pizzicato - no anchovies.
	2:54am Ira: Thank you everyone for listening, and for commenting. I love doing this show every week. No anchovies?! Say it ain't so.
	2:54am spodiodi: thanks a lot Ira! goodnight all
	2:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I was into em actually but I don't eat animals now...
	2:56am mariano: Thank you Ira, thank you Skeletons, take care everyone!
	2:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Johnny Cash alone deserves Thanks Sir.
	2:57am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks and good night, Ira.
	2:57am Joe B: thanks Ira, great show
	2:58am chaos_in_la_la: thank you, real good set @Ira
