	9:05pm mariano: Hey Nate, Olivia, everyone.
	9:06pm Nate K.: Howdy, folks.
	9:06pm McGroovey: Uhg. I almost didn't turn off the convention brainwash feed fast enough.
	9:06pm Nate K.: @ultra, is that guy a never-Trumper? I thought he was just a Beltway stooge.
	9:07pm ami ad: Hello DJ. Hello all. Burnt down some much wood the past 2 nights. Rawk e Roll.
	9:07pm Handy Haversack: There's "Vacancy" here, McGroovey. Stay a while!
	9:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @ultrad : If we close that door - may we never have to see that day again.
	9:07pm steveo: Evening. Love this Neil.
	9:07pm ultradamno: He's been pretty pointed on his MSNBC appearances, not that that's a hostile atmosphere for it.
	9:11pm Nate K.: I saw one of those dudes tweet about Calexico once. So it makes sense.
	9:11pm Nate K.: Feel free to let me soundtrack your RNC tonight! Sound off!
	9:12pm Handy Haversack: ami! Glad to see you! Was wonderng where you'd been earlier.
	9:13pm Handy Haversack: Calexico the Greenpoint restaurant? Man, I think I just don't understand Twitter.
	9:15pm RabidRabbit: Hi, Nate, burninators :)!
	9:16pm mariano: Hey ami - yes, Creamo's been worried about you ;)
	9:16pm ami ad: @ Handy Haversack: HelLoo. Thanks,Got back just around Creamo time. Had no reception upstate,super good. How was your camping trip?
	9:16pm ultradamno: I'm guessing their boyfriend isn't The Suburban Lawns' boyfriend
	9:18pm ami ad: Creamo is master blaster,i am just a blastard.
	9:18pm ultradamno: I have seen this band cover Pink Floyd's Arnold Layne but I cannot prove it.
	9:19pm Handy Haversack: We're on our last night upstate, ami. Rained hard today, so I didn't feel like fighting to get a fire lit outside. So we're on the porch, Burning It Down. Kate's bday today, which was fun. We have had a great time. I think braced up and ready to face the real world again.
	9:20pm ami ad: @mariano:? Ha ?
	9:21pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: May I take this opportunity to greet all you usual suspects and unusual ones too and declare my love for Cleaners From Venus! Hey Handy, as a fellow soul of the dark night, do you know if Julie's show is on tuesdays or thursdays nowadays - have I gotten it all wrong?
	9:23pm ami ad: @ Handy Haversack: Congratulations there,many more. One of the first things we saw coming back to Brooklyn surface,was a guy getting hit by a car in Bushwick. The big city.
	9:24pm Handy Haversack: Photocopy Cha Cha! Nice to see you! As I recall, Julie will be on Thu. as normal this week and THEN move to Tue. in direct opposition to Creamo, which is just not a situation I have been able to wrap my (admittedly small) brain around. I also LOVE Cleaners from Venus!
	9:24pm ultradamno: As long as he maintained a social distance from the driver. Otherwise, someone could get hurt.
	9:25pm Handy Haversack: Oof, ami, welcome home indeed.
	9:26pm ultradamno: Are The Be Positives the male Be Good Tanyas?
	9:28pm mariano: ami: No, seriously. He was asking if anyone had seen you lately.
	9:29pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @9:24 Handy Haversack: nice to see you as well, and I also find the new timeslot frustrating. I thought the first tuesday show was gonna be today. Well, I have also managed to miss Julie's fill-in shows. Aaargggh - except I did catch the last hour of last saturday's show by accident while cycling home, I had no idea she was on air that day.
	9:30pm BH: It was nice of the Mets to return from a COVID hiatus in time to be RNC alternative programming
	9:30pm ami ad: @mariano:Oh,what's going on.Creamo has Feelings?
	9:31pm Handy Haversack: It's a Tuesday emotional mash-up, ami. Don't worry: we'll figure it out in Garbage Time.
	9:32pm ultradamno: I'm sure it was just that he was tracking you and lost the signal.
	9:34pm ultradamno: Reading the booklet in Buried Alive 2 I was struck with the irony of a band called Easybeats having a reputation for wild live shows and even riots.
	9:35pm medson: Hey Nate and everyone.
	9:36pm mariano: Don't know about feelings, ami. He muttered something about a couple of Gs you supposedly owe him, didn't seem to realize the mic was on ;) Yep ultradamno, pretty sure Creamo was gonna send Rover after him.
	9:37pm ami ad: Hehehe. Creamo is Joy. I'm just a boy. Let's rejoice. And let the good times roll.(skronk)
	9:39pm Handy Haversack: Just stay away from windows for a few days, ami. I'm sure it will work itself out.
	9:39pm ami ad: @mariano: I'm not the one hiding in a basement...
	9:41pm ami ad: @ Handy Haversack: Uh,ha,bed-stuy strong here.
	9:42pm mariano: I don't know, man. I hear the Coyls are big-time Irish mob.
	9:43pm Nate K.: Hey, Medson and all just joining.
	9:44pm coelacanth∅: the Creamos are a diminutive sub-mob though
	9:44pm Handy Haversack: Cue Albert Finney Miller's Crossing scene.
	9:45pm ultradamno: The Cleveland ex-pat anti-colored vinyl mob.
	9:46pm mariano: Weren't the Creamos one of the original gangs of NY? Handy: "Danny Boy..." Years ago I knew the guys here in NOLA who supplied the tommy gun in that scene, they had a props company. Apparently one of the very few working original TGs, at least that's what they told me.
	9:47pm chris_in_space: That Funkadelic track—I mean, honestly. Does it get any cooler?
	9:47pm listener pi: Update: My and everybodys favorite trump, Tiffany, just lost her fascism virginity. Put her in the bin with the rest.
	9:47pm ami ad: @mariano:I was presumed a Westei a while back,around the block.
	9:48pm ultradamno: So Tiffany Trump is saying she can relate to people out of work. Well, in fairness, I don't know what her job is.
	9:48pm mariano: Little Richard III? My kingdom for Lucille!
	9:48pm Ken From Hyde Park: Lock her up!
	9:48pm David Shortell: I never dreamt that a Randy Newman song could be so good!
	9:49pm ami ad: What did Lucille do?
	9:49pm Bill: Newman is a god, shut up
	9:49pm coelacanth∅: scrolling scrolling hi Cha Cha! Handy Happy Kate's birthday!
	9:50pm Handy Haversack: Mariano, wild! I do think sometimes about how lots of props are disappearing -- older cars, guns, unfiltered cigarettes ... Thanks, coela! Kate sends back hellos and thanks!
	9:51pm ultradamno: If you write more songs a day than Stephen King writes words, you'll luck into at least one good one.
	9:52pm Blues Mandinga: Ea!
	9:52pm listener pi: Tiffany was a tabula rasa. Could have been anything. You could kind of hope for things with her. She graduated law school in 2020. no word on bar results.
	9:53pm mariano: Newman wrote so much, lots of songs out there lots of folks don't realize are his. Handy - like Audrey Hepburn said about filtered cigs in "Charade": "I can't stand those things. Like drinking coffee through a veil."
	9:55pm chris_in_space: Bravo for playing Last Poets, @Nate K!
	9:55pm ultradamno: Camel straights were my brand. Filthy habit, which is why I miss it.
	9:56pm coelacanth∅: fuck. anyone got a marlboro red to spare?
	9:56pm Nate K.: @Chris, thanks! There's no other!
	9:57pm Larry in Merrlin: Nice surprise to hear the Idle Race, Jeff Lynne's first band before he joined The Move and then formed ELO. "Days of Broken Arrows" was a hit in England (1968?) when I was there for 3 years as a teen... Yes, I'm old!
	9:57pm ami ad: I gots marlboro reds for the spliffs,can share.
	9:58pm ultradamno: Gil Scott-Heron made it onto Lovecraft Country this week
	9:59pm coelacanth∅: i have herb. i use glass. i just like a marlboro now and then, and it's been a few months
	9:59pm Handy Haversack: Same feelings here, ultadamno. My dad had a heart attack in 1970, four years before I was born. He told me that before that, his daily intake was a pack of Camel straights, a pack of Larks (charcoal in the filter!), and a pack of Newports, which he used to "cool down" from the six "black tobacco" Cuban cigars. This was on a work day.
	10:00pm coelacanth∅: ...and you passed through my town already! opportunity lost.
	10:01pm ami ad: I probably smoke 10 or more spliffs a day,hash and marlboro red. didn't have herb in months,makes me tired it does.
	10:02pm mariano: When I was in Omaha in the early 90s it was Old Golds. Stronger than Reds, and you just know they'd be Tom Waits's brand of choice. I remember you mentioning that before, Handy. Unbelievable. Even at my smokingest when I was younger that would've been around 10 time too much.
	10:02pm coelacanth∅: Handy i cannot seem to compute what's crazier, what your father did, or mine smoking 3-1/2 packs marlboro reds/day. i think your father gets the trophy.
	10:03pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @9:49 coelacanth∅: well hey there @9:50 Handy Haversack: oh unfiltered cigarettes - I did hate spitting the tobacco flakes off my tongue. Not many finnish brands were unfiltered, except for at least the variety of North State which was sold in a green pack. I remember desperately trying to learn smoking (like Bill Clinton, I had problems inhaling the smoke) and unfortunately eventually learned. Oh, the crudely tampered library card I used as a ID to buy smokes as a 14-year old.... Oh, and happy birthdays over there!
	10:03pm Handy Haversack: coela, also on a work day (he was a waiter), bottle of red wine, bottle of white wine, bottle of Dewar's. On the weekends, they smoked pot, too.
	10:05pm coelacanth∅: damn. he may've been out Lemmying Lemmy.
	10:06pm Aitch: Go aussie!
	10:06pm ultradamno: Lemmy got healthy by switching from Rum & Cokes to Screwdrivers ('cause...oranges)
	10:08pm tullius: nice job reading that communist sheet out over the air. totally didn't sound like you were reciting that off the paper they gave you
	10:08pm Handy Haversack: Like how Shane MacGowan cleaned up by switching from pitchers of Long Island iced tea to white wine ...
	10:09pm ultradamno: Yeesh In a deleted video obtained by VICE News, RNC speaker Abby Johnson says “statistically, my brown son is more likely to commit a violent offense over my white sons.” www.vice.com...
	10:09pm Nate K.: @tullius : (
	10:09pm ultradamno: Breakfasts are going to get tense.
	10:09pm Chud: RIP to Riley of POWER TRIP, one of the most accepting metal bands I've had the privelege of seeing
	10:10pm Jack: lol tullius
	10:11pm mariano: Awww tullius.
	10:11pm ami ad: @tullius:???
	10:11pm Handy Haversack: Since when is reading communist sheets bad? If I could figure out how to sleep under 'em I would.
	10:12pm ultradamno: They are a nice shade of red
	10:12pm coelacanth∅: my father drank liqor every night for decades; could and often did drink all or most of a quart of liquor in a night. usually gin. i inherited his tolerance, and fortunately his lack of addiction as well.
	10:13pm coelacanth∅: (liquor)
	10:14pm Handy Haversack: coela, when I was growing up we could go out to dinner to a couple of restaurants where my dad had worked so they would hook us up. He would order and have an Heineken or an Campari and soda. And then he would look SO WISTFUL.
	10:14pm Joseph McCarthy∅: i'm having both my sheets and my blanket interrogated
	10:15pm Papyrus: haha ! nate read off of paper when papyrus is superior !
	10:16pm ultradamno: I think telegrams have a warmer sound.
	10:17pm Aitch: Bunch of dirty commies plotting to give you health care goddamnit
	10:17pm coelacanth∅: Handy, i've witnessed that in myself a few times! (i barely drink at all now though)
	10:17pm ami ad: Ended up having a Strawberrita last night,ran out of beers. Arggghhh
	10:18pm brad: lack of addiction (he often drank a quart of alcohol in a night) loooooool. honestly where do u find these ppl!
	10:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Everybody speaks of Karl Marx ...few know his sister Onya - inventor or the starting pistol...
	10:18pm RabidRabbit: @Aitch Truly dangerous people :P
	10:19pm Handy Haversack: Rev Rab, get set -- go!
	10:19pm mariano: Badump-tshhh! (for RevRabbit).
	10:21pm RabidRabbit: Back at school, my teacher would always joke about how, being from Russia, I should be good at maths since I would know all about Engels....
	10:21pm Handy Haversack: Mariano, that's also the punchline to "did you hear the one about the tom and the snare that fell out of the tree?"
	10:21pm Nate K.: @Revolutiuon Rabbit, seriously? That's great. I'm really only familiar with him from what I read off of the pieces of paper handed to me.
	10:21pm coelacanth∅: brad von ignorance, he stopped completely one day in 1988. had no withdrawal symptoms at all. he stopped smoking a few years before the same way. i have done the same thing.
	10:22pm ultradamno: But seriously, all that money and more with your help could give children in detention center dysentery (but will really just get pocketed by Steve Bannon, so don't worry)
	10:23pm chris_in_space: @Nate K, I gotta say, this show is unsurprisingly hitting the spot tonight. Just drippin'!
	10:24pm Nate K.: Glad you're digging it, @Chris!
	10:25pm brad: u make it all up
	10:26pm mariano: Nate: blink in morse code if SM Ken is forcing you to read vile Bolshevik propaganda.
	10:27pm Handy Haversack: Nate, do you think that soon the station will be ready to have volunteers hand you pieces of paper again? I got some doozies!
	10:27pm mb: Hey now Nate K and night people
	10:27pm ultradamno: Is blinking the best surreptitious means of communication over the radio?
	10:28pm Handy Haversack: It's what we have, ultradamno!
	10:28pm ultradamno: For the rest of the show it's Black Flag short and Circle Jerks long for the morse code.
	10:28pm coelacanth∅: i thought i heard some blinking during the last mic break but i can't translate it
	10:29pm mariano: Hey, enough of that defeatist attitude ultradamno. Now blink, dammit, Nate! Blink!
	10:29pm KWilde: @Nate: enjoying your VU premium - some new ones (for me)
	10:31pm Handy Haversack: @KWilde: Same here! We were driving around and listening to it today. So good.
	10:33pm ultradamno: Though it's a little disappointing John Cale didn't change the lyric to "all Jim Carroll's friends, they died"
	10:35pm ultradamno: ..or maybe a new verse about Jim Carroll dying.
	10:35pm Handy Haversack: Ha! I said that in car -- "But, did they have all the same friends?"
	10:36pm Stevel: Thought I'd pop out of my haze and realize that Medusa is pretty cool. Definitely fits my current state of mind. Say YES to Michigan!
	10:37pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: what VU premium?!?!? saliva started dripping from this Pavlov dog's mouth.
	10:37pm Handy Haversack: Pure Michigan!
	10:37pm Stevel: OK, did they borrow the Easy Living riff? Its not a complicated one, but...
	10:38pm ultradamno: @Photo pictured here twitter.com...
	10:38pm mariano: Ok, if he's gonna blink, this is the time.
	10:39pm Handy Haversack: Cha Cha, search this page for "After Hours": wfmu.org...
	10:39pm mariano: Yay Scott and Crew!
	10:40pm Handy Haversack: And Ruth Booth -- the Heart of Saturday Day!
	10:41pm coelacanth∅: mariano i'm thinking of mother night now, and listening for strategically placed coughs, stutters and such
	10:41pm coelacanth∅: (or was it not you who said you liked that one?)
	10:42pm Handy Haversack: My god -- Ken wouldn't have taken away Nate's eyebrows, would he? For the Party?
	10:42pm mariano: Haha coela! Yep, know just what you mean. Nate's the Howard W. Campbell of FMU.
	10:42pm ultradamno: Tiffany Trump's message to people out of work because of Trump pbs.twimg.com...
	10:42pm Handy Haversack: Er, eyelids. Oh my honey.
	10:43pm coelacanth∅: Nate zuma and on the beach 2 of my 3 favorites. definitely his prime, in my opinion
	10:44pm ultradamno: Friend(s) of the show Optic Sink have a new one out too.
	10:46pm coelacanth∅: ultra, i guess she's contracted to believe that her father is good with money.
	10:48pm ultradamno: It's Trump time. Donald is responsible for building the Obama economy and the parts of the ACA that benefit him and Obama and Biden stopped testing of Covid-19 (yeah, he really said that, I know it seems like a million years ago)
	10:50pm Handy Haversack: Holy crap, all this Messthetics stuff I hear I like so much. Deeper dives might be required.
	10:52pm KWilde: Love the lyrics on this RR version
	10:53pm Nate K.: Love the Lou Reed-esque solo!
	10:53pm Nate K.: @Handy, it's a solid investment.
	10:54pm KWilde: He really worshiped Lou
	10:55pm Marshall Stacks: Such a great show - every week!
	10:55pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: OK, thanks for info ultradamno and handy, tempting stuff.
	10:56pm ultradamno: The "suburban housewife" loved this.
	10:56pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: hearing those two words makes me want to revisit that wonderful movie of the same name, Radio On.
	10:58pm ultradamno: Yes! www.imdb.com...
	10:58pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I haven't lived part 123454: I have nothing from The Bags in my record collection.
	10:59pm ultradamno: Not even Decline (as Alice Bag Band)?
	11:00pm Handy Haversack: Heard, Photocopy Cha Cha. We were voicing similar thoughts.
	11:04pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @10:59 ultradamno: if you mean the movie itself, well "threw-VHS-tapes-to-the-skip"-blues (not an original - taped from Finnish TV), and I've never had the soundtrack album.
	11:07pm ultradamno: It's a pretty good record. Kind of my intro to HC, actually
	11:09pm ultradamno: That Musica Transonic was terrific
	11:11pm coelacanth∅: "
	11:11pm RabidRabbit: Love this Tara O'Neil:)
	11:12pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @11:07 ultradamno: I know i said this montha go at Spinage Blasters, but my introduction to HC was Th'Inbred of all things. Just why a 10-year old me from Northern Finland decides to order a comp.tape filled with bands unknown to me I still don't understand, well, life was different pre-internet & you used available routes and resources.
	11:14pm Handy Haversack: Photocopy, you know that listener TDK60 played bass for Th'Inbred?
	11:14pm ultradamno: I have many such inexplicable experiences. The hand of the noise spirit at play perhaps?
	11:16pm ultradamno: Snubbing Malignant Growth! As I mentioned at the time! The indignity foisted upon the hockey punk movement never ends!
	11:17pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @11:14 Handy Haversack: yes, I found out during that show, hopefully I did not annoy him too much repeating that same story like a broken record on the comments board. Creamo Coyl played some Th'Inbred during that show in tribute to the recently passed vocalist.
	11:18pm Handy Haversack: Yes, Photocopy -- sorry, didn't remember if you were on the boards during that one. A fantastic show!
	11:18pm ultradamno: I know Reed downplayed his influence on Richman, but he was probably just being a prick.
	11:19pm chris_in_space: Dan Bodah!
	11:20pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @11:18 Handy Haversack: no matter, I had no avatar then plus I had a different nickname
	11:22pm chris_in_space: @Nate K and fellow listeners, such a fine time tonight. I really love Tuesdays with this show!
	11:23pm ultradamno: Fla = Florida?
	11:25pm Stevel: What year is the Marble Sheep from? Husker-esque echos.
	11:28pm mariano: Singer sounds a bit like Bob Mould.
	11:28pm Nate K.: This incarnation is from the early 2000s I think?
	11:35pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Dear god how I love Moby Grape!
	11:36pm Stevel: I liked it. Very raw, yet psychy around the edges, not unlike early Huskers. (Too tired to hunt for the umlaut.)
	11:36pm chris_in_space: @Photocopy Cha Cha 2000 this Grape tune has that SF sound, for sure. So good!
	11:38pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @11:36 chris_in_space: There are no weak moments on either of their s/t albums (wasn't that 1969 album eponymous) or Wow.
	11:41pm chris_in_space: @Photocopy Agreed. I'm also partial to Truly Fine Citizen. One of my favourite examples of cover artwork, too.
	11:41pm Stevel: This is a hell of a set. Not to jinx it or anything like that.
	11:45pm chris_in_space: @Stevel, I'm feelin' it too! Between the two of us, it's almost a movement.
	11:45pm coelacanth∅: chris (in space) is Dan Bodah in a band played before? (i feel i've heard he was in a band. i was away, brushing teeth and didn't hear the beginning of the set)
	11:45pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @11:41 chris_in_space: I guess I should finally give it a chance. It did not get rave reviews, as it were. The only MG album I have managed to find on vintage vinyl is 20 Granite Creek. Do you know if they have finally gained full rights to their back catalogue & name, like do they get the money from their records when I go to buy 'em etc.?
	11:47pm chris_in_space: @Photocopy: no idea. Don't pass on Truly Fine Citizen. Some cool country rock moments on it! Spin it up!
	11:47pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: What a pity I was not into Pentangle while it was possible to see them in their original line-up - or do I remember wrong they had a reunion of that lineup in early 2010s?
	11:47pm mariano: Jacqui McShee...
	11:48pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @11:47 chris_in_space: OK, you seem to know your stuff, therefore I take your word for it and give it a chance.
	11:49pm chris_in_space: @coelacanth∅: Bodah is WFMU alumni. www.wfmu.org...
	11:52pm coelacanth∅: chris i know i was just thinking you exclaimed "Dan Bodah!" @11.19 because Nate played something Dan did
	11:52pm Ken From Hyde Park: @c∅ - Nate was announcing upcoming fill-ins and Dan is filling in for Rob Weisberg this Saturday.
	11:53pm coelacanth∅: ahhh. Thanks Ken! i was out of the room during the mic break.
	11:53pm Nate K.: Thanks, folks!
	11:53pm Mike Sin: The original Pentangle line-up was back together and touring right up until Bert Jansch’s death in 2011.
	11:55pm chris_in_space: Thanks @Ken and yeah, @coelacanth∅. Love me some fill-ins.
	11:56pm coelacanth∅: Nate the whole program has been stellar! Thanks Thanks skeleton crew!
	11:57pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @11:53 Mike Sin: Thanks Mike, OK, so to my amazement I did not remember wrong. I might have been mildly interested at the time, but found Pentangle properly a few years later.
	11:57pm mariano: Thank you Nate and Crew for the Glorious Revolutionary People's Radio Hour - take care, Fellow Travelers!
	11:57pm coelacanth∅: chris yes and Dan can stretch out a little for this one
	11:58pm chris_in_space: Really fun night @Nate K and all y'all out there. I keep saying it, but I'm feelin' it big. Big love everyone!
	11:58pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I often listen to this show but never do any yakking on the board - well, I did today and it was fun. Thanks for chat company, dear folks, thanks for awesome sets of music Nate! Good night!
	11:59pm coelacanth∅: mariano haha stay strong comrade
	11:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Nate and team. Looking forward to more Communist propaganda readings next week! Haha!
	11:59pm RabidRabbit: Thanks, Nate and everyone:)
	12:00am KWilde: Thanks Nate!
	12:00am coelacanth∅: (take care everyone)

	9:05pm johnzor: randomly! this is still my favorite fmu theme song at this time!!
	9:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ... Awwright !
	9:05pm ultradamno: Speaking of After Hours, one of the anti-Trump republicans came out as a VU fan this week twitter.com...
	9:05pm coelacanth∅: greetings Nate & pyros
	9:05pm mariano: Hey Nate, Olivia, everyone.
	9:06pm Nate K.: Howdy, folks.
	9:06pm McGroovey: Uhg. I almost didn't turn off the convention brainwash feed fast enough.
	9:06pm Nate K.: @ultra, is that guy a never-Trumper? I thought he was just a Beltway stooge.
	9:07pm ami ad: Hello DJ. Hello all. Burnt down some much wood the past 2 nights. Rawk e Roll.
	9:07pm Handy Haversack: There's "Vacancy" here, McGroovey. Stay a while!
	9:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @ultrad : If we close that door - may we never have to see that day again.
	9:07pm steveo: Evening. Love this Neil.
	9:07pm ultradamno: He's been pretty pointed on his MSNBC appearances, not that that's a hostile atmosphere for it.
	9:11pm Nate K.: I saw one of those dudes tweet about Calexico once. So it makes sense.
	9:11pm Nate K.: Feel free to let me soundtrack your RNC tonight! Sound off!
	9:12pm Handy Haversack: ami! Glad to see you! Was wonderng where you'd been earlier.
	9:13pm Handy Haversack: Calexico the Greenpoint restaurant? Man, I think I just don't understand Twitter.
	9:15pm RabidRabbit: Hi, Nate, burninators :)!
	9:16pm mariano: Hey ami - yes, Creamo's been worried about you ;)
	9:16pm ami ad: @ Handy Haversack: HelLoo. Thanks,Got back just around Creamo time. Had no reception upstate,super good. How was your camping trip?
	9:16pm ultradamno: I'm guessing their boyfriend isn't The Suburban Lawns' boyfriend
	9:18pm ami ad: Creamo is master blaster,i am just a blastard.
	9:18pm ultradamno: I have seen this band cover Pink Floyd's Arnold Layne but I cannot prove it.
	9:19pm Handy Haversack: We're on our last night upstate, ami. Rained hard today, so I didn't feel like fighting to get a fire lit outside. So we're on the porch, Burning It Down. Kate's bday today, which was fun. We have had a great time. I think braced up and ready to face the real world again.
	9:20pm ami ad: @mariano:? Ha ?
	9:21pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: May I take this opportunity to greet all you usual suspects and unusual ones too and declare my love for Cleaners From Venus! Hey Handy, as a fellow soul of the dark night, do you know if Julie's show is on tuesdays or thursdays nowadays - have I gotten it all wrong?
	9:23pm ami ad: @ Handy Haversack: Congratulations there,many more. One of the first things we saw coming back to Brooklyn surface,was a guy getting hit by a car in Bushwick. The big city.
	9:24pm Handy Haversack: Photocopy Cha Cha! Nice to see you! As I recall, Julie will be on Thu. as normal this week and THEN move to Tue. in direct opposition to Creamo, which is just not a situation I have been able to wrap my (admittedly small) brain around. I also LOVE Cleaners from Venus!
	9:24pm ultradamno: As long as he maintained a social distance from the driver. Otherwise, someone could get hurt.
	9:25pm Handy Haversack: Oof, ami, welcome home indeed.
	9:26pm ultradamno: Are The Be Positives the male Be Good Tanyas?
	9:28pm mariano: ami: No, seriously. He was asking if anyone had seen you lately.
	9:29pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @9:24 Handy Haversack: nice to see you as well, and I also find the new timeslot frustrating. I thought the first tuesday show was gonna be today. Well, I have also managed to miss Julie's fill-in shows. Aaargggh - except I did catch the last hour of last saturday's show by accident while cycling home, I had no idea she was on air that day.
	9:30pm BH: It was nice of the Mets to return from a COVID hiatus in time to be RNC alternative programming
	9:30pm ami ad: @mariano:Oh,what's going on.Creamo has Feelings?
	9:31pm Handy Haversack: It's a Tuesday emotional mash-up, ami. Don't worry: we'll figure it out in Garbage Time.
	9:32pm ultradamno: I'm sure it was just that he was tracking you and lost the signal.
	9:34pm ultradamno: Reading the booklet in Buried Alive 2 I was struck with the irony of a band called Easybeats having a reputation for wild live shows and even riots.
	9:35pm medson: Hey Nate and everyone.
	9:36pm mariano: Don't know about feelings, ami. He muttered something about a couple of Gs you supposedly owe him, didn't seem to realize the mic was on ;) Yep ultradamno, pretty sure Creamo was gonna send Rover after him.
	9:37pm ami ad: Hehehe. Creamo is Joy. I'm just a boy. Let's rejoice. And let the good times roll.(skronk)
	9:39pm Handy Haversack: Just stay away from windows for a few days, ami. I'm sure it will work itself out.
	9:39pm ami ad: @mariano: I'm not the one hiding in a basement...
	9:41pm ami ad: @ Handy Haversack: Uh,ha,bed-stuy strong here.
	9:42pm mariano: I don't know, man. I hear the Coyls are big-time Irish mob.
	9:43pm Nate K.: Hey, Medson and all just joining.
	9:44pm coelacanth∅: the Creamos are a diminutive sub-mob though
	9:44pm Handy Haversack: Cue Albert Finney Miller's Crossing scene.
	9:45pm ultradamno: The Cleveland ex-pat anti-colored vinyl mob.
	9:46pm mariano: Weren't the Creamos one of the original gangs of NY? Handy: "Danny Boy..." Years ago I knew the guys here in NOLA who supplied the tommy gun in that scene, they had a props company. Apparently one of the very few working original TGs, at least that's what they told me.
	9:47pm chris_in_space: That Funkadelic track—I mean, honestly. Does it get any cooler?
	9:47pm listener pi: Update: My and everybodys favorite trump, Tiffany, just lost her fascism virginity. Put her in the bin with the rest.
	9:47pm ami ad: @mariano:I was presumed a Westei a while back,around the block.
	9:48pm ultradamno: So Tiffany Trump is saying she can relate to people out of work. Well, in fairness, I don't know what her job is.
	9:48pm mariano: Little Richard III? My kingdom for Lucille!
	9:48pm Ken From Hyde Park: Lock her up!
	9:48pm David Shortell: I never dreamt that a Randy Newman song could be so good!
	9:49pm ami ad: What did Lucille do?
	9:49pm Bill: Newman is a god, shut up
	9:49pm coelacanth∅: scrolling scrolling hi Cha Cha! Handy Happy Kate's birthday!
	9:50pm Handy Haversack: Mariano, wild! I do think sometimes about how lots of props are disappearing -- older cars, guns, unfiltered cigarettes ... Thanks, coela! Kate sends back hellos and thanks!
	9:51pm ultradamno: If you write more songs a day than Stephen King writes words, you'll luck into at least one good one.
	9:52pm Blues Mandinga: Ea!
	9:52pm listener pi: Tiffany was a tabula rasa. Could have been anything. You could kind of hope for things with her. She graduated law school in 2020. no word on bar results.
	9:53pm mariano: Newman wrote so much, lots of songs out there lots of folks don't realize are his. Handy - like Audrey Hepburn said about filtered cigs in "Charade": "I can't stand those things. Like drinking coffee through a veil."
	9:55pm chris_in_space: Bravo for playing Last Poets, @Nate K!
	9:55pm ultradamno: Camel straights were my brand. Filthy habit, which is why I miss it.
	9:56pm coelacanth∅: fuck. anyone got a marlboro red to spare?
	9:56pm Nate K.: @Chris, thanks! There's no other!
	9:57pm Larry in Merrlin: Nice surprise to hear the Idle Race, Jeff Lynne's first band before he joined The Move and then formed ELO. "Days of Broken Arrows" was a hit in England (1968?) when I was there for 3 years as a teen... Yes, I'm old!
	9:57pm ami ad: I gots marlboro reds for the spliffs,can share.
	9:58pm ultradamno: Gil Scott-Heron made it onto Lovecraft Country this week
	9:59pm coelacanth∅: i have herb. i use glass. i just like a marlboro now and then, and it's been a few months
	9:59pm Handy Haversack: Same feelings here, ultadamno. My dad had a heart attack in 1970, four years before I was born. He told me that before that, his daily intake was a pack of Camel straights, a pack of Larks (charcoal in the filter!), and a pack of Newports, which he used to "cool down" from the six "black tobacco" Cuban cigars. This was on a work day.
	10:00pm coelacanth∅: ...and you passed through my town already! opportunity lost.
	10:01pm ami ad: I probably smoke 10 or more spliffs a day,hash and marlboro red. didn't have herb in months,makes me tired it does.
	10:02pm mariano: When I was in Omaha in the early 90s it was Old Golds. Stronger than Reds, and you just know they'd be Tom Waits's brand of choice. I remember you mentioning that before, Handy. Unbelievable. Even at my smokingest when I was younger that would've been around 10 time too much.
	10:02pm coelacanth∅: Handy i cannot seem to compute what's crazier, what your father did, or mine smoking 3-1/2 packs marlboro reds/day. i think your father gets the trophy.
	10:03pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @9:49 coelacanth∅: well hey there @9:50 Handy Haversack: oh unfiltered cigarettes - I did hate spitting the tobacco flakes off my tongue. Not many finnish brands were unfiltered, except for at least the variety of North State which was sold in a green pack. I remember desperately trying to learn smoking (like Bill Clinton, I had problems inhaling the smoke) and unfortunately eventually learned. Oh, the crudely tampered library card I used as a ID to buy smokes as a 14-year old.... Oh, and happy birthdays over there!
	10:03pm Handy Haversack: coela, also on a work day (he was a waiter), bottle of red wine, bottle of white wine, bottle of Dewar's. On the weekends, they smoked pot, too.
	10:05pm coelacanth∅: damn. he may've been out Lemmying Lemmy.
	10:06pm Aitch: Go aussie!
	10:06pm ultradamno: Lemmy got healthy by switching from Rum & Cokes to Screwdrivers ('cause...oranges)
	10:08pm tullius: nice job reading that communist sheet out over the air. totally didn't sound like you were reciting that off the paper they gave you
	10:08pm Handy Haversack: Like how Shane MacGowan cleaned up by switching from pitchers of Long Island iced tea to white wine ...
	10:09pm ultradamno: Yeesh In a deleted video obtained by VICE News, RNC speaker Abby Johnson says “statistically, my brown son is more likely to commit a violent offense over my white sons.” www.vice.com...
	10:09pm Nate K.: @tullius : (
	10:09pm ultradamno: Breakfasts are going to get tense.
	10:09pm Chud: RIP to Riley of POWER TRIP, one of the most accepting metal bands I've had the privelege of seeing
	10:10pm Jack: lol tullius
	10:11pm mariano: Awww tullius.
	10:11pm ami ad: @tullius:???
	10:11pm Handy Haversack: Since when is reading communist sheets bad? If I could figure out how to sleep under 'em I would.
	10:12pm ultradamno: They are a nice shade of red
	10:12pm coelacanth∅: my father drank liqor every night for decades; could and often did drink all or most of a quart of liquor in a night. usually gin. i inherited his tolerance, and fortunately his lack of addiction as well.
	10:13pm coelacanth∅: (liquor)
	10:14pm Handy Haversack: coela, when I was growing up we could go out to dinner to a couple of restaurants where my dad had worked so they would hook us up. He would order and have an Heineken or an Campari and soda. And then he would look SO WISTFUL.
	10:14pm Joseph McCarthy∅: i'm having both my sheets and my blanket interrogated
	10:15pm Papyrus: haha ! nate read off of paper when papyrus is superior !
	10:16pm ultradamno: I think telegrams have a warmer sound.
	10:17pm Aitch: Bunch of dirty commies plotting to give you health care goddamnit
	10:17pm coelacanth∅: Handy, i've witnessed that in myself a few times! (i barely drink at all now though)
	10:17pm ami ad: Ended up having a Strawberrita last night,ran out of beers. Arggghhh
	10:18pm brad: lack of addiction (he often drank a quart of alcohol in a night) loooooool. honestly where do u find these ppl!
	10:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Everybody speaks of Karl Marx ...few know his sister Onya - inventor or the starting pistol...
	10:18pm RabidRabbit: @Aitch Truly dangerous people :P
	10:19pm Handy Haversack: Rev Rab, get set -- go!
	10:19pm mariano: Badump-tshhh! (for RevRabbit).
	10:21pm RabidRabbit: Back at school, my teacher would always joke about how, being from Russia, I should be good at maths since I would know all about Engels....
	10:21pm Handy Haversack: Mariano, that's also the punchline to "did you hear the one about the tom and the snare that fell out of the tree?"
	10:21pm Nate K.: @Revolutiuon Rabbit, seriously? That's great. I'm really only familiar with him from what I read off of the pieces of paper handed to me.
	10:21pm coelacanth∅: brad von ignorance, he stopped completely one day in 1988. had no withdrawal symptoms at all. he stopped smoking a few years before the same way. i have done the same thing.
	10:22pm ultradamno: But seriously, all that money and more with your help could give children in detention center dysentery (but will really just get pocketed by Steve Bannon, so don't worry)
	10:23pm chris_in_space: @Nate K, I gotta say, this show is unsurprisingly hitting the spot tonight. Just drippin'!
	10:24pm Nate K.: Glad you're digging it, @Chris!
	10:25pm brad: u make it all up
	10:26pm mariano: Nate: blink in morse code if SM Ken is forcing you to read vile Bolshevik propaganda.
	10:27pm Handy Haversack: Nate, do you think that soon the station will be ready to have volunteers hand you pieces of paper again? I got some doozies!
	10:27pm mb: Hey now Nate K and night people
	10:27pm ultradamno: Is blinking the best surreptitious means of communication over the radio?
	10:28pm Handy Haversack: It's what we have, ultradamno!
	10:28pm ultradamno: For the rest of the show it's Black Flag short and Circle Jerks long for the morse code.
	10:28pm coelacanth∅: i thought i heard some blinking during the last mic break but i can't translate it
	10:29pm mariano: Hey, enough of that defeatist attitude ultradamno. Now blink, dammit, Nate! Blink!
	10:29pm KWilde: @Nate: enjoying your VU premium - some new ones (for me)
	10:31pm Handy Haversack: @KWilde: Same here! We were driving around and listening to it today. So good.
	10:33pm ultradamno: Though it's a little disappointing John Cale didn't change the lyric to "all Jim Carroll's friends, they died"
	10:35pm ultradamno: ..or maybe a new verse about Jim Carroll dying.
	10:35pm Handy Haversack: Ha! I said that in car -- "But, did they have all the same friends?"
	10:36pm Stevel: Thought I'd pop out of my haze and realize that Medusa is pretty cool. Definitely fits my current state of mind. Say YES to Michigan!
	10:37pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: what VU premium?!?!? saliva started dripping from this Pavlov dog's mouth.
	10:37pm Handy Haversack: Pure Michigan!
	10:37pm Stevel: OK, did they borrow the Easy Living riff? Its not a complicated one, but...
	10:38pm ultradamno: @Photo pictured here twitter.com...
	10:38pm mariano: Ok, if he's gonna blink, this is the time.
	10:39pm Handy Haversack: Cha Cha, search this page for "After Hours": wfmu.org...
	10:39pm mariano: Yay Scott and Crew!
	10:40pm Handy Haversack: And Ruth Booth -- the Heart of Saturday Day!
	10:41pm coelacanth∅: mariano i'm thinking of mother night now, and listening for strategically placed coughs, stutters and such
	10:41pm coelacanth∅: (or was it not you who said you liked that one?)
	10:42pm Handy Haversack: My god -- Ken wouldn't have taken away Nate's eyebrows, would he? For the Party?
	10:42pm mariano: Haha coela! Yep, know just what you mean. Nate's the Howard W. Campbell of FMU.
	10:42pm ultradamno: Tiffany Trump's message to people out of work because of Trump pbs.twimg.com...
	10:42pm Handy Haversack: Er, eyelids. Oh my honey.
	10:43pm coelacanth∅: Nate zuma and on the beach 2 of my 3 favorites. definitely his prime, in my opinion
	10:44pm ultradamno: Friend(s) of the show Optic Sink have a new one out too.
	10:46pm coelacanth∅: ultra, i guess she's contracted to believe that her father is good with money.
	10:48pm ultradamno: It's Trump time. Donald is responsible for building the Obama economy and the parts of the ACA that benefit him and Obama and Biden stopped testing of Covid-19 (yeah, he really said that, I know it seems like a million years ago)
	10:50pm Handy Haversack: Holy crap, all this Messthetics stuff I hear I like so much. Deeper dives might be required.
	10:52pm KWilde: Love the lyrics on this RR version
	10:53pm Nate K.: Love the Lou Reed-esque solo!
	10:53pm Nate K.: @Handy, it's a solid investment.
	10:54pm KWilde: He really worshiped Lou
	10:55pm Marshall Stacks: Such a great show - every week!
	10:55pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: OK, thanks for info ultradamno and handy, tempting stuff.
	10:56pm ultradamno: The "suburban housewife" loved this.
	10:56pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: hearing those two words makes me want to revisit that wonderful movie of the same name, Radio On.
	10:58pm ultradamno: Yes! www.imdb.com...
	10:58pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I haven't lived part 123454: I have nothing from The Bags in my record collection.
	10:59pm ultradamno: Not even Decline (as Alice Bag Band)?
	11:00pm Handy Haversack: Heard, Photocopy Cha Cha. We were voicing similar thoughts.
	11:04pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @10:59 ultradamno: if you mean the movie itself, well "threw-VHS-tapes-to-the-skip"-blues (not an original - taped from Finnish TV), and I've never had the soundtrack album.
	11:07pm ultradamno: It's a pretty good record. Kind of my intro to HC, actually
	11:09pm ultradamno: That Musica Transonic was terrific
	11:11pm coelacanth∅: "
	11:11pm RabidRabbit: Love this Tara O'Neil:)
	11:12pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @11:07 ultradamno: I know i said this montha go at Spinage Blasters, but my introduction to HC was Th'Inbred of all things. Just why a 10-year old me from Northern Finland decides to order a comp.tape filled with bands unknown to me I still don't understand, well, life was different pre-internet & you used available routes and resources.
	11:14pm Handy Haversack: Photocopy, you know that listener TDK60 played bass for Th'Inbred?
	11:14pm ultradamno: I have many such inexplicable experiences. The hand of the noise spirit at play perhaps?
	11:16pm ultradamno: Snubbing Malignant Growth! As I mentioned at the time! The indignity foisted upon the hockey punk movement never ends!
	11:17pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @11:14 Handy Haversack: yes, I found out during that show, hopefully I did not annoy him too much repeating that same story like a broken record on the comments board. Creamo Coyl played some Th'Inbred during that show in tribute to the recently passed vocalist.
	11:18pm Handy Haversack: Yes, Photocopy -- sorry, didn't remember if you were on the boards during that one. A fantastic show!
	11:18pm ultradamno: I know Reed downplayed his influence on Richman, but he was probably just being a prick.
	11:19pm chris_in_space: Dan Bodah!
	11:20pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @11:18 Handy Haversack: no matter, I had no avatar then plus I had a different nickname
	11:22pm chris_in_space: @Nate K and fellow listeners, such a fine time tonight. I really love Tuesdays with this show!
	11:23pm ultradamno: Fla = Florida?
	11:25pm Stevel: What year is the Marble Sheep from? Husker-esque echos.
	11:28pm mariano: Singer sounds a bit like Bob Mould.
	11:28pm Nate K.: This incarnation is from the early 2000s I think?
	11:35pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Dear god how I love Moby Grape!
	11:36pm Stevel: I liked it. Very raw, yet psychy around the edges, not unlike early Huskers. (Too tired to hunt for the umlaut.)
	11:36pm chris_in_space: @Photocopy Cha Cha 2000 this Grape tune has that SF sound, for sure. So good!
	11:38pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @11:36 chris_in_space: There are no weak moments on either of their s/t albums (wasn't that 1969 album eponymous) or Wow.
	11:41pm chris_in_space: @Photocopy Agreed. I'm also partial to Truly Fine Citizen. One of my favourite examples of cover artwork, too.
	11:41pm Stevel: This is a hell of a set. Not to jinx it or anything like that.
	11:45pm chris_in_space: @Stevel, I'm feelin' it too! Between the two of us, it's almost a movement.
	11:45pm coelacanth∅: chris (in space) is Dan Bodah in a band played before? (i feel i've heard he was in a band. i was away, brushing teeth and didn't hear the beginning of the set)
	11:45pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @11:41 chris_in_space: I guess I should finally give it a chance. It did not get rave reviews, as it were. The only MG album I have managed to find on vintage vinyl is 20 Granite Creek. Do you know if they have finally gained full rights to their back catalogue & name, like do they get the money from their records when I go to buy 'em etc.?
	11:47pm chris_in_space: @Photocopy: no idea. Don't pass on Truly Fine Citizen. Some cool country rock moments on it! Spin it up!
	11:47pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: What a pity I was not into Pentangle while it was possible to see them in their original line-up - or do I remember wrong they had a reunion of that lineup in early 2010s?
	11:47pm mariano: Jacqui McShee...
	11:48pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @11:47 chris_in_space: OK, you seem to know your stuff, therefore I take your word for it and give it a chance.
	11:49pm chris_in_space: @coelacanth∅: Bodah is WFMU alumni. www.wfmu.org...
	11:52pm coelacanth∅: chris i know i was just thinking you exclaimed "Dan Bodah!" @11.19 because Nate played something Dan did
	11:52pm Ken From Hyde Park: @c∅ - Nate was announcing upcoming fill-ins and Dan is filling in for Rob Weisberg this Saturday.
	11:53pm coelacanth∅: ahhh. Thanks Ken! i was out of the room during the mic break.
	11:53pm Nate K.: Thanks, folks!
	11:53pm Mike Sin: The original Pentangle line-up was back together and touring right up until Bert Jansch’s death in 2011.
	11:55pm chris_in_space: Thanks @Ken and yeah, @coelacanth∅. Love me some fill-ins.
	11:56pm coelacanth∅: Nate the whole program has been stellar! Thanks Thanks skeleton crew!
	11:57pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @11:53 Mike Sin: Thanks Mike, OK, so to my amazement I did not remember wrong. I might have been mildly interested at the time, but found Pentangle properly a few years later.
	11:57pm mariano: Thank you Nate and Crew for the Glorious Revolutionary People's Radio Hour - take care, Fellow Travelers!
	11:57pm coelacanth∅: chris yes and Dan can stretch out a little for this one
	11:58pm chris_in_space: Really fun night @Nate K and all y'all out there. I keep saying it, but I'm feelin' it big. Big love everyone!
	11:58pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: I often listen to this show but never do any yakking on the board - well, I did today and it was fun. Thanks for chat company, dear folks, thanks for awesome sets of music Nate! Good night!
	11:59pm coelacanth∅: mariano haha stay strong comrade
	11:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Nate and team. Looking forward to more Communist propaganda readings next week! Haha!
	11:59pm RabidRabbit: Thanks, Nate and everyone:)
	12:00am KWilde: Thanks Nate!
	12:00am coelacanth∅: (take care everyone)
