WFMU: Honky Tonk Radio Girl with Becky: Playlist from September 2, 2020

Listener comments!
	🎸 ♥ 8:00pm ultradamno: Becky! Tonkies!
	♥ 8:00pm loveless: Oh, slip me a slug from the wonderful mug and I cut a rug till I'm snug in a jug. Coffee time!
	♥ 8:00pm Handy Haversack: Becky! Tonkies! Hello! HH: Remember how last week was songs about drinking? This week it's coffee. Kate: "Coughing"?! That doesn't sound like a good idea!
	8:02pm Becky: Howdy friends!
	8:02pm Becky: I DEFINITELY don't have an hour of coughing songs.
	♥ 8:02pm Pauly from Clifton: Hey Becky, Scott, fellow listeners!
	♥ 8:04pm Handy Haversack: Probably for the best, Becky. Times being what they are.
	♥ 8:05pm Gaylord Fields: <3 Becky <3 Linda <3 CR forever (and what the hell: <3 Packy)
	8:05pm MplsCoco: just so you know... I love your show and listen to it multiple times during the week! But rarely live! What a treat!
	8:07pm yip: i eat toffee with my coffee
	🎸 ♥ 8:08pm ultradamno: I think he's being suspiciously vague about the nature of what he's hauling. Coors to Florida, must be.
	♥ 8:10pm Gaylord Fields: Yeah, "toffee" and "Muammar Gaddafi" is all I got.
	8:10pm Becky: By the way, my copy of this LP is pristine. It's all Fortune you're hearing.
	🎸 ♥ 8:11pm ultradamno: Colostomy....but the implications of that alongside coffee....
	♥ 8:16pm Handy Haversack: ... orange roughy?
	♥ 8:17pm Gaylord Fields: @ultradamno: Hahaha!!! And that rhyme slants so much, it topples right over!
	8:17pm Becky: Is that pronounced raw-fy?
	♥ 8:18pm Matt Fiveash: Raffi! And Mohammed Rafi!
	♥ 8:19pm Handy Haversack: No, echoing Gaylord and Emily Dickinson, I figured tell the truth but tell it slant. Gawpy? Sloughy?
	♥ 8:20pm Matt Fiveash: Peaceful Solutions with Joe Doffy
	♥ 8:20pm Handy Haversack: Hawky? I guess if I had enough coffee I might play "here, hawky hawky."
	🎸 ♥ 8:20pm ultradamno: Snuffy? Like Smith...
	🎸 ♥ 8:21pm ultradamno: i3.cpcache.com...
	8:21pm Becky: @Fiveash Raffi only rhymes if you're from certain parts of Massachusetts, I believe. Which I guess you would know about.
	♥ 8:23pm Gaylord Fields: "I smoke cigarettes and drink black coffee/And get my advice from Emily Yoffe" slate.com...
	🎸 ♥ 8:24pm ultradamno: I had a friend that used to stress the value of combining coffee and weed, I'd think Willie Nelson would have something on this...
	♥ 8:24pm Gaylord Fields: Nashville, here I come!!!
	8:24pm Becky: It's a hit!
	♥ 8:25pm Matt Fiveash: Topical!
	♥ 8:26pm Gaylord Fields: @Becky: I couldn't have done it without you. Let's pitch it for Linda Martell's comeback song!
	8:26pm johnzo: I know it's not a country song(well it kinda is) but that Otis Redding song Cigarettes & Coffee would fit into this set great
	8:28pm y_ddraig_las: Maybe it's because I live in a small country, but I've never made an association between truckers and coffee before!
	♥ 8:29pm Uncle Michael: hello
	8:29pm Becky: It's coffee or the little white pills.
	♥ 8:29pm Matt Fiveash: There's probably enough good Little White Pills country songs to fill an hour.
	🎸 ♥ 8:30pm ultradamno: ...I was about to suggest amphetamine trucker songs, must be a few.
	♥ 8:30pm Matt Fiveash: Haha Jinx, buy me a coke, etc!
	♥ 8:30pm Handy Haversack: Definitely, Matt.
	8:30pm Listener Scott: I feel bad for not knowing this show existed until now, like I should lose my WFMU Gold Card or something. My apologies. I'll be over here in the archives paying penance.
	8:31pm Becky: Welcome, Listener Scott! Make yerself at home.
	♥ 8:31pm Uncle Michael: Oh, Scott...I'm just sad for you.
	♥ 8:32pm Gaylord Fields: @y_ddraig_las: I've driven in Wales (though not a truck, mind you). Just dodging errant sheep was enough to keep me on my toes.
	8:32pm Listener Scott: Matt and Uncle Mike know I'm good for the money though.
	♥ 8:32pm Uncle Michael: I'd like to drive a lorry on the Isle of Man.
	♥ 8:33pm Uncle Michael: Yes, I'll vouch for Scott.
	♥ 8:33pm Matt Fiveash: Vouchment seconded
	8:34pm Listener Scott: I listened to Radio Thrift Shop religiously, so one one think Amazon or Siri or someone would've creepily forged that connection and let me know.
	8:35pm sufferwords: So good Becky- thanks
	8:35pm y_ddraig_las: Lol @Gaylord_Fields. It's strange you rarely see errant sheep in driving computer games.
	♥ 8:36pm Uncle Michael: Everyone catch Deke Dickerson's new Covid opus featuring Earl's grandson Chris?
	8:36pm Becky: @Uncle Michael, it's so great!
	♥ 8:37pm Gaylord Fields: @Uncle Michael: Where do we find it? we non-social-media-having folk ask.
	8:38pm y_ddraig_las: @Listener_Scott Radio Thrift Shop and Laura Cantrell got me into Country music. Then one day this amazing show appeared when I wandered back to WFMU.
	♥ 8:38pm Uncle Michael: Gaylord: www.youtube.com...
	♥ 8:39pm Gaylord Fields: @Uncle Michael @y_ddraig_las: How often are we graced with two dragon avatars? Have you both met?
	♥ 8:40pm Uncle Michael: Gaylord, you're so observant.
	♥ 8:41pm Gaylord Fields: @UM: I'm just another pattern-seeking animal. (And thanks for the Deke link!)
	8:41pm y_ddraig_las: No, Hello @Uncle_Michael. What type of dragon are you?
	♥ 8:42pm Uncle Michael: You can be Deke's 23rd hit! I'm the kind that pufs stuf, but only as an avatar.
	♥ 8:43pm Handy Haversack: @y_ddraig_las: I feel like I haven't seen you in the Honkey Tonk in a while! Though Kate and I did have to miss a couple of shows (dang it!). Hope you're doing well.
	8:44pm yip: do you like to drink coffee at night
	♥ 8:46pm Uncle Michael: I wish Julea Thomerson was listening right now.
	8:48pm y_ddraig_las: @HandyHeversack I had a job doing shifts, so couldn't listen to the show live for far too long
	♥ 8:48pm Tommy in Neversink: What I have learned the last hour: You can't be late if you're hauling freight ; cigarettes and coffee go good together ( I don't smoke so I couldn't know that ) Don't take the first train to Clarksville
	♥ 8:48pm Handy Haversack: Glad you're back, y_ddraig_las!
	♥ 8:51pm Tommy in Neversink: LOVED coffee show Becky . Even if there were no celebrities and cars
	8:53pm Becky: All WFMU listeners are celebrities to me
	♥ 8:55pm Pauly from Clifton: Lefty! The pride of Corsicana, TX!
	♥ 8:55pm Handy Haversack: Thanks so much, Becky! Thanks for all, Skeleton Scott! See you all next week or at the efd clubhouse in a few minutes.
	8:55pm castor: I’ve done a good amount of long distance hitch hiking via long haul trucks in the US, and I have met many friendly, decent hard working truckers that I really appreciated, and some did indeed drive non-stop on copious coffee.
	8:57pm y_ddraig_las: When I visited the US, I was fascinated by the massive trucks. One guy very kindly invited me to see inside his truck, it was huge and he had his wife and kids inside!
	♥ 8:58pm Handy Haversack: Well OK then! There she is! Yeah!
	♥ 8:58pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, Becky.
	♥ 8:58pm swivs: This show was good til the last drop! (smashes coffee mug on ground, whoo-hoos alone in basement, high-fives invisible friend)
	8:59pm y_ddraig_las: Diolch yn fawr Becky. Nos da pawb
	♥ 8:59pm Pauly from Clifton: Thanks, Becky! Great show as usual.
	8:59pm Listener Scott: Thanks Becky, looking forward to hearing you in the archives
	♥ 9:00pm Handy Haversack: Air high-five back, swivs!
	♥ 9:01pm Gaylord Fields: @y_ddraig_las: Nos da.
	♥ 9:03pm radioronan: Thanks Becky
