	12:41pm Irene Trudel: Hi Brian! This background is what I call "December Blue." I tend to get generally a little blue in December and I find that color soothing.
	12:44pm Irene Trudel: Thanks Sean and Sylvia. Yes, a lotta nice memories of my dad. He was a music lover, mostly of classical orchestral pieces. I added a sweet boyhood picture of him a my Facebook profile today. www.facebook.com...
	🥁 12:45pm Brian in UK: Lonnie called from two rooms away.
	🥁 12:49pm Sean in Bristol UK: Hopefully Irene, we get to hear the Christmas vinyl that has the wonderful skip in the next couple of weeks. Your Christmas choice of songs fills me with hope

	12:53pm Irene Trudel: Sean, you totally got it! My special mix for the holidaze will be on December 21st.
	12:56pm Irene Trudel: FYI, I will not be doing a show next Monday. I have to take off to oversee a sound installation for my work. Larry Grogan will bring his fine "Testify!" program to you in my place.
	🥁 12:59pm Sean in Bristol UK: Bless you Irene, it’s the Winter Solstice, light returns for us in the Northern Hemisphere.
	🥁 1:03pm Sean in Bristol UK: So I would like to reach out to you wonderful class Crimble poptastic hits makes you either want to knee someone in the groin (imaginary scenario, don’t want to promote violence!) or makes your teeth itch?
	1:04pm Dean: Just in c/o Blue Heron's mailing list, a related project announcement: https://www.lesdelices.org/event/salonera-medieval-xmas/
	1:04pm Constant Follower: Soothing indeed. Tuned in just in time to catch that Gunn-Truscinski, beautiful. Hey Irene, All.
	1:04pm Stork: May your blues be radiant, Irene!
	🥁 1:05pm Sean in Bristol UK: Should check my spelling, I mean this most wonderful listeners
	🥁 1:11pm Sean in Bristol UK: So my top five in no special order that gets me slightly agitated: Slade Maria Carey Wham Chris Rea And Boney M Over to you folks to name your tunes that gets you edgy! Your are in a supermarket/Store/ department and you are in a hurry and the these particular songs are playing
	1:14pm Stork: As I said when I played 2(!) tracks from this wonderful album on the tribute last night, this is just about my favorite Brubeck album - and Desmond told Dave that it was his favorite record, period! This version of the Koto song, with Paul clacking the keys on the intro - heaven!! Thanks, Irene! Thanks Dave and Paul!!
	1:16pm Irene Trudel: Hiya, Constant Follower, Dean and Stork! Sounds nice, Dean! I'll check into it more after the show.
	1:16pm Honeybear: Am still floating on the mists of your fine program yesterday, Herr Stork
	1:17pm Stork: @Sean in Bristol: Hands down, it's George Michael doing - -"that song." I won't pronoune it's name lest it come alive. Ahh, hell, now it's in my brain again!
	1:19pm Irene Trudel: Sean, I have a big list of not-to-be-played Xmas tunes that I can do without ever hearing again. They will not be a part of my show on the 21st, I can assure you.
	1:19pm Stork: Thanks, Honeybear! So am I. It was hard to get to sleep after that, I was still so excited.
	1:20pm Constant Follower: Irene <3
	1:21pm Irene Trudel: Looking forward to hearing a full album from you, Constant Follower!
	1:23pm Constant Follower: Thanks Irene. Looking like April - Shimmy Disc a little behind schedule. :)
	1:28pm Honeybear: Hope to catch you live when civilization resumes, Constant Follower - perhaps in the UK, or on the continent somewhere?
	1:31pm Irene Trudel: Sean, Stork, top of the no-play list is McCartney's xmas tune-- totally insipid! I won't mention the title, lest it gets stuck in your head.
	1:32pm Constant Follower: Thanks Honeybear. Man, I miss gigs. Can't wait for them to return! Will certainly be touring the album if allowed.
	1:35pm Irene Trudel: Honeybear, I totally look forward to when civilization returns. All this abstinence from live in-person musical performance is really crushing my soul.
	1:46pm alanr: Sorry. I am late for my weekly class! Maybe "civilization" is not the best word, considering what damage civilization has done to this planet. Just sayin.'
	1:48pm listener james from westwood: Aw, that poor li'l owl.
	🥁 1:53pm Michael 98145: Good to hear Nakai again! Oh, and enough covidaloca! Out, out 2020!!
	1:56pm Irene Trudel: Hey alanr and Michael! Yep, 2020 can't be gone soon enough.
	1:57pm Honeybear: Am definitely feeling my soul "compressed" by the absence of live music. But I've also been able to use the all that time at home to dig deeper into my personal (and the WFMU) archives in ways I could never quite find the time for... having spent nearly all that time out and about (pre-oblivion)
	🥁 1:58pm Michael 98145: beware of maya
	1:58pm Honeybear: Even just managing my notes on music I -know- about (and want to find out more about) takes time.. and I never had that time before, until now
	1:59pm alanr: Irene, could you post a link to the Robyn/Emma podcast?
	1:59pm doctorjazz: Nice Harrison cover!
	1:59pm Irene Trudel: Hey, whatever helps, Honeybear! I find music keeps me from endlessly doomscrolling news and FB.
	2:01pm Irene Trudel: alanr, here's the link for Wednesday's show through StageIt: www.stageit.com...
	2:01pm alanr: forever indebted!
	🥁 2:02pm Brian in UK: .....and Tom the cabin boy smiled.
	2:04pm Irene Trudel: alanr, I always marvel at how entertaining Robyn and Emma are week after week, and there are often appearances by their cats and many of their stuffed animal friends.
	2:07pm TDK60: Hi Irene; just back from the subway system.
	2:11pm Irene Trudel: Hey TDK60! I'm still a little weirded out by traveling the subway but have braved them a few times. I've been reassured by reports of their safety.
	2:13pm Cronbat: Howdy, Irene & All; I always enjoy hearing A Salty Dog. The Procol Harum version is a wonderful prog-rock parody of prog rock, grandiose and absurd
	2:14pm Irene Trudel: I've always loved A Salty Dog, Cronbat! One of the earliest things I remember hearing on FreeForm FM radio.
	2:17pm TDK60: Irene, Luckily most NYCers wear masks (96%?). Most of the non-masked seem to be teens thinking they're being rebellious when in reality, they're not.
	🥁 2:19pm Michael 98145: time for duct tape?
	2:22pm Stork: Jamie Saft! Great musician. Go, Dave S.!
	2:22pm Webhamster Henry: Jamie Saft is awesome!
	2:22pm Webhamster Henry: [and local to Kingston]
	2:25pm Irene Trudel: Yes, NY-ers finally got it into their heads that masking up = good. Hey Henry! Kingston in the house!
	2:26pm Webhamster Henry: Dave's show is so friendly! Reminds me of Marian McPartland's old show where's she'd have a session of Jazz shop talk and then a duet.
	2:28pm Stork: I loved Marian M.'s show so much, Henry. I played some track of her with Dave Brubeck last night - the two are a very large joy to hear.
	2:28pm Irene Trudel: Yes Henry! That's a great comparison. For those who don't know Dave's show, he often performs live duets on baritone sax with his guests.
	2:36pm TDK60: Haven't heard the latest David C. album, till this track.
	🥁 2:37pm Brian in UK: This is an unheard previously Crosby vocal sound.
	2:39pm Irene Trudel: TDK60 and Brian, Crosby's past four albums have a similar vibe. Beautiful stuff. I think it's some of his best work.
	2:39pm TDK60: Hi Brian in UK. I heard his two previous albums and his voice sounded higher than the old days, to me. I thought it's usually lower as singers age. [?]
	2:42pm Irene Trudel: It's surprising to me that Crosby's voice is still intact, given his past. The one thing I do notice is a bit of a lisp.
	2:42pm Constant Follower: I was just imagining some Scott fitting into this beautiful set Irene!
	2:45pm Irene Trudel: Did you turn me on to Scott William Urquhart, CF? Lovely playing.
	2:46pm Constant Follower: He recorded this in my wee studio - full album in one take.
	2:50pm Stork: This show just zipped right by! Thanks for the sweet aural space I now find myself in, Irene!
	2:51pm prguitar: I saw Cros at Lincoln Center Out of Doors a couple of summers ago.. He and band were fabulous! His voice intact for sure. Made my heart smile!
	🥁 2:52pm Brian in UK: TDK60 to be honest the Byrds were my compass from '65 but I found Crosby the odd man out. Constant Follower, good work.
	2:52pm Jay S: Wait, what show has live duets with baritone sax?
	2:54pm TDK60: Thanks Irene, down there in the Upper West Side! See you Brian, up in Shropshire, et allz wherever.
	2:54pm Stork: Love this Mommyheads
	2:54pm Irene Trudel: Thanks Stork! prguitar, I was also at that show-- simply sublime! That's right, Jay S. Hey, thanks to all of you for listening in today. I'll be back in two weeks. Stay tuned for Ken's Last Ever Radio Extravaganza.
	2:55pm doctorjazz: The Mommyheads, huh? Like this a whole lot! Thanks, Irene!
	2:56pm Stork: doc!
	2:56pm John B: Stay safe, Irene. And thanks again.
	2:56pm doctorjazz: Stork!
	2:56pm Constant Follower: Cheers Brian. Thanks Irene for another great show!
	2:56pm doctorjazz: Survive the onslaught?
	2:56pm Honeybear: I found today's program to be not at all a downer, Irene - but right on the money for current season (and for where we are in the "great oblivion"). That is to say: warm, human, reflective.
	2:56pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Thanks, Irene! Up in just a minute on this Drummer Stream: "Whatever Happens Will Happen Again": Found sound collage from the Austin years. A dazzlingly complex and absurd environmentally immersive and live-made improvised sound collage...with ridiculous live phone callers in the mix. ....say something, here! wfmu.org...
	2:56pm Irene Trudel: The Mommyheads are one of the best, most underrated pop bands. I love them too!
	2:57pm Irene Trudel: Thanks Honeybear!
	2:58pm Constant Follower: Second that Honeybear <3
	🥁 2:59pm Michael 98145: Thank you again, Irene. Take care, all.
	🥁 2:59pm Brian in UK: The music don't let you go. Thanks Irene.
	2:59pm listener james from westwood: Utter delight today as always!
	3:00pm Irene Trudel: Thanks everybody!
	🥁 12:12pm Sean in Bristol UK: Finally caught up with the rest of the show, just sublime, Irene, roll on the 21st
