	12:10pm mathlover2+2: pseu - not a request, just curious if you would ever play soul asylum
	♥ 12:10pm The Donut King: Ah, PW!!! What an album! I never really found another one of his that I loved as much as this one.
	♥ 12:10pm p/b: @Crudbringer all is forgiven but you remind me to ask when exactly did "learnings" become a word? Who's dollarizing that?
	♥ 12:11pm Baja Joe: Paul Williams. Wow. He was terrific.
	♥ 12:12pm Chop Scott: Good Afternoon Pseu!

	♥ 12:15pm Crudbringer: stop the verbing ppl
	12:16pm johnzo: *hey
	♥ 12:17pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, Pseu! I have a rare Thursday off work, so I can actually listen to your show without fear of not getting a lick of my work done! As such, I'm in Bliss City!
	♥ 12:18pm Pseu Braun: Hey FMU luminaries, Vicki PLU and Gaylord, Matt W and those to come! Hell, you're all luminescent here!
	12:19pm Listening Out There: Good stuffs, as usual....
	♥ 12:21pm dave wuz here: spent the morning welding on a stripped out oil drain plug under a truck in a freezing wet parking lot. this is better than that.
	12:25pm ?: What a pleasant surprise! Finding this in Santa Cruz ca
	♥ 12:25pm Pseu Braun: I can only hope to live up to that chore, @dave wuz here
	12:27pm People Like Us: one of the best beatles songs ever
	12:28pm Fletchernyc: Pseuuuuuuuuu!!!
	♥ 12:28pm Red Rua: it's hitting me right in the feels
	♥ 12:29pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, PLU! I agree: Because = magic!
	12:31pm Listener Robert: Dave, if you welded it on, does that mean the next time they want to drain the oil, they're going to need to torch it off too? Or did you weld on a new threaded joint?
	♥ 12:31pm bbob: YaY Pseu!
	♥ 12:31pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Pseu Braun: My first Bruce show was from The River tour! Cleveland.
	12:32pm Roberto: And then you checked your phone and #johnlennon was trending.
	12:32pm West Trenton Vinnie: The Spectrum!
	♥ 12:32pm listener 126464: Immediately got on a path train to city that night.
	12:37pm West Trenton Vinnie: No more Fleetwood Mac smack talk either?
	♥ 12:38pm Pseu Braun: oh, FM smack is always welcome
	12:38pm Roberto: Lol Fleetwood Smack
	12:39pm West Trenton Vinnie: Mac Smack!
	♥ 12:40pm p/b: wow listen to this lickerish madness. got some Queen in there
	12:41pm West Trenton Vinnie: @Pseu - went down a youtube Mac Smack rabbit hole after that show, thanks!
	12:41pm Androu B.: I remember where I was the night Lennon was shot: watching the Tonight Show when WNBC interrupted the program with the tragic announcement. Went straight to bed after that. The following morning I tuned in to all the rock and news stations on the radio. The news was all over the place. Try to "Imagine" how traumatizing it must've been for a young guy at 15.
	♥ 12:42pm Barkevious Shabazz: This Lickerish Quartet kills.
	♥ 12:42pm Michele with One "L": I love this song
	12:44pm Fox: Hulloooooo.
	12:46pm pgalub: Hey Pseu and everyone! Good to 'be' here. 🎸
	12:46pm Androu B.: Speaking of Mac Smack, I once got a C&D order from WB Records after posting a remix of "Dreams" on my Soundcloud account. It was a real good one, too. Mixed in bits of Gorillaz "Melancholy Hill" for that.
	12:47pm Roberto: "Imagine" was played so often in the following weeks that I thought it was a new track off Double Fantasy.
	12:51pm Gerry from Miami: So Pseu, are you going to slip the Beatles' "Because" into today's playlist? It's the least you can do in John's memory. And I agree with other listeners---that Paul Williams song was terrific. Anyone here remember him as the evil Swan in the "Phantom of the Paradise" movie?
	12:51pm Mr. Record: Always a great day when I can time Pseu with day crap. Living in the boonies precludes me from streaming successfully on the road. Being home doesn't. Living in north jersey wouldn't either but I don't live there any longer.
	♥ 12:52pm Pseu Braun: Gerry from Miami, huh? You just miss the whole first set or what?
	12:55pm West Trenton Vinnie: lol, we now know where Bruce was
	♥ 12:57pm Pseu Braun: jeez, I'm still wondering where Gerry was.
	12:57pm Be Now B: That photon band song whole lotta growin' made my day! TY
	12:58pm Mike tp: great petty song.never heard till now.
	12:58pm Androu B.: @Gerry from Miami "Phantom Of The Paradise" ran on (believe it or not) SyFy back in October.
	12:59pm People Like Us: it's the inuits
	♥ 1:00pm Barkevious Shabazz: Gerry was on the Syfy channel today.
	1:02pm Roberto: If you ask Bruce where he was that night, he'll tell you, "I was playing a show for Pseu!"
	1:05pm Gerry from Miami: Pseu, listeners perusing today's show n the archives won't know you played "Because" is all I'm saying. I understand an on-air live DJ has a lot of things to do while the music is playing and you are all workng from home during the pandemic. I'm just a nerdy detail-conscious freak who gets upset when the playlists aren't 100% accurate. Other than that, I love your show and fully get your take on not feeling obligated to honor anyone, or only those you yourself choose to honor. Party on, fair lady, these three hours each week belong to you! Don't tempt Michele to pull that plug!
	1:06pm johnzo: get that damn spotlight outa my face papparazzo
	♥ 1:06pm happymaan: I've only seen Phantom Of The Paradise because Michael Shelly was talking about it one day, I loved it. My wife...not so much
	♥ 1:06pm Pseu Braun: there is rumour that Bruce was told of Lennon's death in the midst of the set but I find that very very hard to believe. He never left the stage. @Gerry the playlist was corrected ASAP!
	1:06pm Fox: I met Gerrit Graham once, and he told me that I had the best fashion sense at Chiller.
	1:06pm jonlost3030: i see because right there. it's right there!
	♥ 1:08pm Pseu Braun: IT's RIGHT THERE! Now ship me some-a that MIAMI COKAYYYYYNE
	1:08pm Fox: Gerry - No, you are wrong. "Because" is clearly in the song list, and anyone perusing today's show will see that.
	1:09pm West Trenton Vinnie: I find myself a Fleetwood Smack Centrist, I believe both Lindsey and Stevie were challenging to deal with, and Stevie won
	♥ 1:10pm Pseu Braun: WTV smart not to take sides. Stevie might put the whammy on you.
	1:12pm Androu B.: This song is starting to evoke shades of Hoodoo Gurus.
	1:12pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Minky Starshine? This sounds very nice but you are definitely making it up.
	♥ 1:12pm Pseu Braun: Because....the earth is flaaaat...
	1:13pm Gerry from Miami: Yes, I see it on the "blue" playlist page. Still not on the "black" page. It's no biggie. We will all survive. Also, thanks for playing Silver Synthetic. One of the best new bands and getting attention from several WFMU jocks.
	1:13pm West Trenton Vinnie: @Pseu, precisely, as a Centrist I hold that she is in fact a witch, although I understand that other Centrists may feel otherwise
	1:14pm rich the greeb: So when I was maybe 10? I was up late on probably or a Friday or Saturday night watching a movie on WPIX. I would forever have a image from that movie seared into my mind. It was someone getting their head caught in a record press. It’s hard to say if that influenced both my record and gore horror predilections but it was buried deep. I would occasionally wonder had I really seen that? What was that movie? How was it on broadcast tv? Years later I decided to check out a semi-obscure movie called “ the phantom of the paradise.” I was loving it in all of its bombastic absurdity when there it was!! That scene! It was real! I would like to say it is one of my favorite movies ever on merit alone, but I guess I was a bit prepped in my Brooklyn bedroom. Anyway hope this wasn’t too long.
	♥ 1:14pm Krys O.: The Dark Web playlist?
	♥ 1:14pm Pseu Braun: TOPT - guys, ya gotta hit the archive of his Hollies special from this past Saturday wfmu.org...
	1:15pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks Pseu!
	1:16pm johnzo: somebody call the fda/dea cause this show is medicine. actually don't. just prescribe it heavily for you friends
	♥ 1:16pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): @Gerry 1:13: What is the "black" playlist page you're referring to?
	♥ 1:16pm Pseu Braun: Kenzo! THE CREATOR is here y'all!
	♥ 1:17pm Krys O.: Huzzah, Kenzo!
	1:17pm Gerry from Miami: Todd, that Hollies show was super! Thanks! Looking forward to the Chris Hillman interview this Saturday.
	♥ 1:18pm Pseu Braun: Take it from Gerry. This man has taste and infinite patience with the ribbing here.
	1:19pm Gerry from Miami: I call it the black page with the white-background playlist, the page that comes up when you first log in to the stream.
	♥ 1:19pm Krys O.: The pop-up player?
	1:19pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks Gerry! and Pseu...thanks for introducing me to Nick Frater (among other acts).
	♥ 1:19pm Pseu Braun: The mobile version, Gerry?
	♥ 1:20pm Krys O.: The radio rethink link.
	♥ 1:20pm Gaylord Fields: @Gerry from Miami: So are you saying that "black" playlist is separate but not equal?
	♥ 1:20pm Bill in W.O.: Hi Pseu! I've missed the live experience for lame real life stuff lately. Keep doing that voodoo that you do.
	♥ 1:20pm Krys O.: I just checked the Radio Rethink playlist for the first time ever and Because is not there.
	♥ 1:21pm Pseu Braun: Gaylord i can't lulzzxx
	1:21pm Gerry from Miami: I am listening on a cell phone. Is the laptop/desktop/tablet using a different format?
	♥ 1:21pm Krys O.: I've never gone by Radio Rethink because they'll have weirdly wrong images for album art.
	♥ 1:22pm Gaylord Fields: @Pseu: Thanks, luv!
	♥ 1:23pm Krys O.: Because is on the app playlist. Radio Rethink appears to be the culprit.
	♥ 1:23pm happymaan: How to With John Wilson has been renewed for season 2!
	1:23pm Mcb64: Hello fellow listeners
	♥ 1:24pm happymaan: I just say cause I can see that show going well with the WFMU crowd.
	♥ 1:24pm Pseu Braun: Gotta get to more of the Wilson eps. I'm running behind!
	♥ 1:24pm Barkevious Shabazz: Episode title:Black List Matters.
	1:24pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Radio Rethink showed Neil Young's "Homegrown" album for Bird Streets.
	1:25pm Gerry from Miami: Thanks, Krys O! Thought I was seeing (or not seeing!) things for a while there. Radio can be a messy business. I'm just glad it is there at all.
	♥ 1:26pm Krys O.: Just what I'm talkin' about, Todd-o-phonic.
	1:28pm Mcb64: Hey fellow listeners when i sign in and i try to favorite a song it takes me back to the login
	♥ 1:29pm Krys O.: @Mcb64: Are you on a desktop computer or mobile?
	♥ 1:29pm Krys O.: Bobby Elliott
	1:29pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Bobby Elliott!
	♥ 1:29pm happymaan: The show just gets better and better once you get with his flow. But there's only 6 episodes, and that took him 2 years.
	1:30pm KlausVonB: Hi Pseu
	1:31pm Mcb64: @Keys O mobile and i cant chat from the website either i have to add some numbers
	♥ 1:31pm Krys O.: I always screw up Eric Haydock's name and call him Eric Manchester.
	♥ 1:32pm happymaan: This is a perfect example of when I have many perfectly fine films to watch but I keep WFMU on instead.
	♥ 1:33pm Krys O.: Bernie Calvert and Graham looked like siblings.
	♥ 1:33pm Gaylord Fields: @Krys O: And Tony Hicks looks about 14 years old.
	♥ 1:36pm Pseu Braun: Bobby Elliott. Bianca Bob always told me never to trust boys with two First names/last names
	♥ 1:36pm The Donut King: Will never forget the first time I heard anything past the Everly's hits - was in a record store in the UK in the 90s and checked out It's Everly Time and A Date With the Everly Brothers. Mind was completely blown.
	♥ 1:38pm Krys O.: @Gaylord: I still have a crush on Tony Hicks and think he's one of the best guitarists ever. He made a banjo sound like a sitar.
	1:39pm Gerry from Miami: The Everlys sure got adventurous in their choice of material during the latter half of their long singing career. True icons, Don and Phil!!
	1:39pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: I’ve heard that one needs to be real careful like with anyone/thing with “Wayne” for a middle name. Criminal. YYY chromosome
	♥ 1:40pm Krys O.: @The Donut King: Phil Everly sings on Roy Wood's Mustard album. It's glorious.
	♥ 1:41pm Gaylord Fields: @Pseu: On the other hand, advice coming from someone with a girl's first name and then a boy's first name is always trustworthy! @Krys: Tony is also one of my all-time top guitarists full stop! And you chose your crushes well.
	1:41pm Dennis Diken: Diggin’ the noise! Hi Pseu & everyone!
	♥ 1:42pm Pseu Braun: Here's Denny!
	♥ 1:42pm Krys O.: FWIW: I crush hard on Keith Relf too.
	♥ 1:43pm Pseu Braun: @gaylord I'm thinkin real hard abt any gal I know who qualifies!
	1:43pm Dennis Diken: Btw, I echo TOPT’s thanks for hipping us to Nick Frater!
	♥ 1:43pm bbob: Boy W/2 first names NG= advice still holds!
	1:44pm Gerry from Miami: Krys, Keith Relf never got the respect he deserved. Could never steal the spotlight from Clapton, Beck or Page.
	♥ 1:44pm Pseu Braun: oh yeah I was "dating" a guy with w/2 first names and you warned me b4 there was any trouble - I shoulda listened!
	♥ 1:45pm Pseu Braun: Keith Relf talk about legit underrated.
	1:46pm egould310: Dig that Midnight Steppers tune. Thanks for gipping me to the new sounds, Pseu! Great show.
	♥ 1:47pm Gaylord Fields: @Pseu: I was thinking of Bianca Bob (as I sometimes do, speaking of swoon-worthy).
	♥ 1:47pm Pseu Braun: MOAR PAUL WILLIAMS
	♥ 1:47pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Gerry, were you originally saying that you couldn't see Because on this "blue playlist" (the real playlist page) or just that you couldn't see on the "black playlist" (the Radio Rethink pop-up player)?
	1:47pm Doc Rock: I
	♥ 1:51pm Krys O.: The vocals on that Plasticsoul, Mannilown reminded me of Robert Harrison of Cotton Mather.
	1:51pm Gerry from Miami: Well, Kenzo, there are two playlists, depending on the page you're logged into and the device you are using. I can access them both. I'm not going to lose any sleep over it. I'm just digging the music.
	♥ 1:52pm jwekselblatt: Love The Lemon Twigs. Thanks.
	♥ 1:52pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Gerry, I'd like to know if the only playlist you weren't seeing "Because" on was the black one.
	♥ 1:52pm Krys O.: @Kenzo: The Radio Rethink playlist does not have The Beatles.
	♥ 1:53pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): @Krys O: I know, thanks. I just want to get certain on what Gerry was specifically reporting. Oh, hi Pseu!
	♥ 1:55pm jwekselblatt: I think The Lemon Twigs have been listening to The Beach Boys!
	1:55pm Gerry from Miami: Yes, that one didn't show "Because." And Pseu even said so. These technicalities can bog you down and spoil the enjoyment of the program. Let's just put it to rest for today. Case closed!
	1:56pm Marko: I tuned in late, so maybe this was part of your on-air chat, but perhaps surprisingly, Keith Relf was a founder of Renaissance, a band he co-founded with fellow Yardbirds member Jim McCarty and three other members, including keyboardist John Hawken. Their debut album was produced by fellow Yardbirds member Paul Samwell-Smith. The band eventually transformed into the Annie Haslam-fronted ensemble.
	1:56pm Fletchernyc: Love her.
	1:57pm mathlover2+2: on my playlist, there is a column "Artist", a column "Track", and third with the heading "Message from Satan". Is that correct?
	1:57pm Gerry from Miami: Another of the terrific new bands, the Lemon Twigs. Yes, they have internalized Brian Wilson and pals, for sure.
	♥ 1:59pm ParUbi: I keep coming back for THIS ORGAN MUSIC
	♥ 1:59pm Red Rua: Had a big road trip planned this past summer to see a couple of Angel Olsen shows but 2020 had other plans. Although that's pretty high on the list, it's still not what I hate most about 2020.
	2:02pm Gerry from Miami: Marko, I saw the Annie Haslam version of Renaissance at Cornell University in Ithaca, NY, in the fall of 1977. Quite a delightful show, complete with a huge, rotating mirror ball installed in the ceiling of the auditorium. That generation of the band was quite a bit different from Relf's.
	2:07pm ww: Pseuzie and all hookers! Stay safe, at least physically. We all take great risk mentally tuning in on Thursdays. Never know who is gonna get hammered for what. Priceless.
	2:09pm Gerry from Miami: Marko, just to put that timeline into perspective, the fall of 1977 was that fateful time when the Sex Pistols cancelled their appearance on Saturday Night Live and were replaced by Elvis Costello and the Attractions. Pop music was forever changed!
	♥ 2:10pm PMD: @ww lol
	2:11pm winston legthigh: done-able haha pseu! hello gang!
	2:11pm ww: Waiting for the for EFD Xmas Funktacular!
	2:14pm ww: ...."Taking Care of Christmas". Get with the spirit, sister. No typical Pseuzabelle wet blanket this year. We had enough of that sh*t. Put a smile on that face and be that bright light of hope that we know you are for all of your faithful followers.
	2:14pm Gerry from Miami: Todd mentioned the Yule Logs archive on Clay Pigeon's show earlier this week. Said that was the place to go for WFMU Christmas tunes.
	♥ 2:16pm p/b: love this doomer where has this been all my life
	♥ 2:18pm Pseu Braun: Doomer amirite? New and wunnerful
	♥ 2:18pm Barkevious Shabazz: Doomer sounding a little Lytle.
	2:18pm Fox: Pseu, I'm glad you mentioned the madness of the sunshine today. I thought maybe it was just me. My apartment is BLINDINGly bright. I dig it, but... it IS a lot.
	♥ 2:19pm Pseu Braun: oh, shit gotta swap the title/band name my bad!
	♥ 2:20pm Pseu Braun: hey Fox! yeah, got some heavy brown blinds but still....
	♥ 2:21pm Pseu Braun: So, the SONG is Doomer, the band: Obscura Hail
	♥ 2:24pm Pseu Braun: all, did I miss a playlist entry after Frankie Cosmos?
	♥ 2:26pm Huge: Personal Space
	♥ 2:27pm Pseu Braun: THANK U
	♥ 2:30pm Krys O.: The sun hangs low in the sky this time of year and I have to draw the curtains in my office to avoid the painful glare due to photohobia which sounds like something it's not.
	2:31pm Marko: Wow, Gerry. Autumn 1977 introduced many of us to Elvis Costello. For the music fans into the rapidly evolving punk and New Wave scene, the late 1970s teemed with artists who created a tremendous gush of notable music. So many commercially succeeded, and so many have been remaindered in our collective memories. In that era, as with you, I'd seen the Annie Haslam version of Renaissance. Decades later, as a journalist, I interviewed her as a preview to the band's appearance at Outpost in the Burbs in Montclair. As Psue notes, great music endures, as she cites Todd's terrific show that included his interview with the Hollies member (whose fame dates from 50+ years ago). And splendid new music always emerges, which is why the playlists of Psue and her WFMU colleagues are essential for listeners like me who need the band names and their tunes. Thanks, Psue, for today's stream of sweet/sour/salty/ (sometimes) bitter songs. Isn't Umani an overlooked band from Hoboken?
	♥ 2:33pm swivs: Wow. That was not Blur. Hmm. The Moons... Very nice.
	♥ 2:39pm p/b: Damn I know this voice don't I?
	♥ 2:40pm Krys O.: Robert Palmer and Elkie Brooks were in a band called Dada.
	2:41pm Gerry from Miami: True words, Marko. Had the good fortune to see live performances of Joe Jackson, Graham Parker and the Rumour, Elvis C., Squeeze, the Clash, X, English Beat, XTC, REM, Pere Ubu, Dead Boys, Howard Devoto and Magazine, Devo and many others. What a great period in pop/rock history.
	2:41pm Marko: Sorry, Pseu, In typing your name, I juxtaposed the vowels...
	♥ 2:43pm happymaan: Hey ya swivs, it's your buddy who makes popcorn.
	♥ 2:45pm Krys O.: You've hit the proverbial wall, Pseu. Hydrate yourself and decompress. Hugs!
	2:46pm Listening Out There: Pseu, you're doing fine, just fine...
	2:47pm ww: YES- Children of the Pseu!
	2:47pm morphe': Thanks Pseu and all.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Knew a horrible Glom from Bklyn - 1980s Ne'erDoWell ...
	♥ 2:49pm Krys O.: Speaking of crushes: young Burgess Meredith
	♥ 2:50pm Bill in W.O.: Thanks for the greatness today, Pseu.
	2:50pm morphe': ps. Glom was from EarthWalkers end of Bay Ridge - he can confirm. = Glom from Bay Ridge = Ne'erDoWell ... are you out there Earth???
	♥ 2:50pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	♥ 2:50pm radioronan: Thanks Pseu..thanks skeleton crew!
	2:51pm West Trenton Vinnie: I loved the "Inappropriate Celebrity Crush show @SUW
	2:51pm Andres: Afternoon, Pseu. A heck of a show today when on-line training wasn't spoiling it for me. Thank you!
	♥ 2:52pm Krys O.: I recall Pseu wrote a fine piece for the old WFMU Blog about interesting crushes. Worth seeking out. Much obliged, Pseu & everyone! xxxooo
	♥ 2:53pm Krys O.: Found it: blog.wfmu.org...
	♥ 2:53pm Pseu Braun: omg @krys
	♥ 2:54pm Bill in W.O.: Thanks, Krys. This I wanna see!
	2:54pm Gerry from Miami: Marko, I inadvertantly omitted the B-52s and Talking Heads from my list. Both bands were incomparable in concert. Seems I'm getting nostalgic about musicians who were "knockin' 'em dead" 35-40 years ago. So be it. Great art is timeless.
	♥ 2:54pm Krys O.: Oooooh! Bonus feels! LOVE!!!
	2:55pm morphe': Crushes (X-Ray and I had the same list) I dream of Jeannie Sr Bertrel(sp?) Samanta - Bewitched Mannix's secretary = Peggy Peggy from the Mod Squad ...........................................................
	2:55pm ww: Searchers did Western Union?
	2:56pm ww: As far as crushes, who can forget.....from Love That Bob.
	♥ 2:56pm royvis: @Krys O - Thanks for sharing! Hilarious.
	2:56pm Stillwell Coney Islander: The Searchers?
	2:56pm ww: Zasu Pitts?
	♥ 2:58pm listener 126464: Thanks Pseu!
	2:58pm ww: And Burgess Meredith - aka the Penguin? Aka Rudy Giuliani?
	2:59pm mathlover2+2: thx - always love your show.
	♥ 2:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Pseu. Have a nice week!
	2:59pm ww: clearly I know nothing about nothing....
	2:59pm ww: except Pseu you are the BEST.
	2:59pm Gerry from Miami: The hit version of "Western Union" in the US was by the Five Americans.
	♥ 3:00pm Krys O.: Burgess Meredith 1937 in Winterset.
	3:00pm ww: Gerry, that was what I wuz remembering....
	♥ 3:00pm Krys O.: The Searchers covered a ton of songs.

	♥ 12:10pm The Donut King: Ah, PW!!! What an album! I never really found another one of his that I loved as much as this one.
	♥ 12:10pm p/b: @Crudbringer all is forgiven but you remind me to ask when exactly did "learnings" become a word? Who's dollarizing that?
	♥ 12:11pm Baja Joe: Paul Williams. Wow. He was terrific.

	♥ 12:18pm Pseu Braun: Hey FMU luminaries, Vicki PLU and Gaylord, Matt W and those to come! Hell, you're all luminescent here!
	12:19pm Listening Out There: Good stuffs, as usual....
	♥ 12:21pm dave wuz here: spent the morning welding on a stripped out oil drain plug under a truck in a freezing wet parking lot. this is better than that.
	12:25pm ?: What a pleasant surprise! Finding this in Santa Cruz ca
	♥ 12:25pm Pseu Braun: I can only hope to live up to that chore, @dave wuz here
	12:27pm People Like Us: one of the best beatles songs ever
	12:28pm Fletchernyc: Pseuuuuuuuuu!!!
	♥ 12:28pm Red Rua: it's hitting me right in the feels
	♥ 12:29pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, PLU! I agree: Because = magic!
	12:31pm Listener Robert: Dave, if you welded it on, does that mean the next time they want to drain the oil, they're going to need to torch it off too? Or did you weld on a new threaded joint?
	♥ 12:31pm bbob: YaY Pseu!
	♥ 12:31pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Pseu Braun: My first Bruce show was from The River tour! Cleveland.
	12:32pm Roberto: And then you checked your phone and #johnlennon was trending.
	12:32pm West Trenton Vinnie: The Spectrum!
	♥ 12:32pm listener 126464: Immediately got on a path train to city that night.
	12:37pm West Trenton Vinnie: No more Fleetwood Mac smack talk either?
	♥ 12:38pm Pseu Braun: oh, FM smack is always welcome
	12:38pm Roberto: Lol Fleetwood Smack
	12:39pm West Trenton Vinnie: Mac Smack!
	♥ 12:40pm p/b: wow listen to this lickerish madness. got some Queen in there
	12:41pm West Trenton Vinnie: @Pseu - went down a youtube Mac Smack rabbit hole after that show, thanks!
	12:41pm Androu B.: I remember where I was the night Lennon was shot: watching the Tonight Show when WNBC interrupted the program with the tragic announcement. Went straight to bed after that. The following morning I tuned in to all the rock and news stations on the radio. The news was all over the place. Try to "Imagine" how traumatizing it must've been for a young guy at 15.
	♥ 12:42pm Barkevious Shabazz: This Lickerish Quartet kills.
	♥ 12:42pm Michele with One "L": I love this song
	12:44pm Fox: Hulloooooo.
	12:46pm pgalub: Hey Pseu and everyone! Good to 'be' here. 🎸
	12:46pm Androu B.: Speaking of Mac Smack, I once got a C&D order from WB Records after posting a remix of "Dreams" on my Soundcloud account. It was a real good one, too. Mixed in bits of Gorillaz "Melancholy Hill" for that.
	12:47pm Roberto: "Imagine" was played so often in the following weeks that I thought it was a new track off Double Fantasy.
	12:51pm Gerry from Miami: So Pseu, are you going to slip the Beatles' "Because" into today's playlist? It's the least you can do in John's memory. And I agree with other listeners---that Paul Williams song was terrific. Anyone here remember him as the evil Swan in the "Phantom of the Paradise" movie?
	12:51pm Mr. Record: Always a great day when I can time Pseu with day crap. Living in the boonies precludes me from streaming successfully on the road. Being home doesn't. Living in north jersey wouldn't either but I don't live there any longer.
	♥ 12:52pm Pseu Braun: Gerry from Miami, huh? You just miss the whole first set or what?
	12:55pm West Trenton Vinnie: lol, we now know where Bruce was
	♥ 12:57pm Pseu Braun: jeez, I'm still wondering where Gerry was.
	12:57pm Be Now B: That photon band song whole lotta growin' made my day! TY
	12:58pm Mike tp: great petty song.never heard till now.
	12:58pm Androu B.: @Gerry from Miami "Phantom Of The Paradise" ran on (believe it or not) SyFy back in October.
	12:59pm People Like Us: it's the inuits
	♥ 1:00pm Barkevious Shabazz: Gerry was on the Syfy channel today.
	1:02pm Roberto: If you ask Bruce where he was that night, he'll tell you, "I was playing a show for Pseu!"
	1:05pm Gerry from Miami: Pseu, listeners perusing today's show n the archives won't know you played "Because" is all I'm saying. I understand an on-air live DJ has a lot of things to do while the music is playing and you are all workng from home during the pandemic. I'm just a nerdy detail-conscious freak who gets upset when the playlists aren't 100% accurate. Other than that, I love your show and fully get your take on not feeling obligated to honor anyone, or only those you yourself choose to honor. Party on, fair lady, these three hours each week belong to you! Don't tempt Michele to pull that plug!
	1:06pm johnzo: get that damn spotlight outa my face papparazzo
	♥ 1:06pm happymaan: I've only seen Phantom Of The Paradise because Michael Shelly was talking about it one day, I loved it. My wife...not so much
	♥ 1:06pm Pseu Braun: there is rumour that Bruce was told of Lennon's death in the midst of the set but I find that very very hard to believe. He never left the stage. @Gerry the playlist was corrected ASAP!
	1:06pm Fox: I met Gerrit Graham once, and he told me that I had the best fashion sense at Chiller.
	1:06pm jonlost3030: i see because right there. it's right there!
	♥ 1:08pm Pseu Braun: IT's RIGHT THERE! Now ship me some-a that MIAMI COKAYYYYYNE
	1:08pm Fox: Gerry - No, you are wrong. "Because" is clearly in the song list, and anyone perusing today's show will see that.
	1:09pm West Trenton Vinnie: I find myself a Fleetwood Smack Centrist, I believe both Lindsey and Stevie were challenging to deal with, and Stevie won
	♥ 1:10pm Pseu Braun: WTV smart not to take sides. Stevie might put the whammy on you.
	1:12pm Androu B.: This song is starting to evoke shades of Hoodoo Gurus.
	1:12pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Minky Starshine? This sounds very nice but you are definitely making it up.
	♥ 1:12pm Pseu Braun: Because....the earth is flaaaat...
	1:13pm Gerry from Miami: Yes, I see it on the "blue" playlist page. Still not on the "black" page. It's no biggie. We will all survive. Also, thanks for playing Silver Synthetic. One of the best new bands and getting attention from several WFMU jocks.
	1:13pm West Trenton Vinnie: @Pseu, precisely, as a Centrist I hold that she is in fact a witch, although I understand that other Centrists may feel otherwise
	1:14pm rich the greeb: So when I was maybe 10? I was up late on probably or a Friday or Saturday night watching a movie on WPIX. I would forever have a image from that movie seared into my mind. It was someone getting their head caught in a record press. It’s hard to say if that influenced both my record and gore horror predilections but it was buried deep. I would occasionally wonder had I really seen that? What was that movie? How was it on broadcast tv? Years later I decided to check out a semi-obscure movie called “ the phantom of the paradise.” I was loving it in all of its bombastic absurdity when there it was!! That scene! It was real! I would like to say it is one of my favorite movies ever on merit alone, but I guess I was a bit prepped in my Brooklyn bedroom. Anyway hope this wasn’t too long.
	♥ 1:14pm Krys O.: The Dark Web playlist?
	♥ 1:14pm Pseu Braun: TOPT - guys, ya gotta hit the archive of his Hollies special from this past Saturday wfmu.org...
	1:15pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks Pseu!
	1:16pm johnzo: somebody call the fda/dea cause this show is medicine. actually don't. just prescribe it heavily for you friends
	♥ 1:16pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): @Gerry 1:13: What is the "black" playlist page you're referring to?
	♥ 1:16pm Pseu Braun: Kenzo! THE CREATOR is here y'all!
	♥ 1:17pm Krys O.: Huzzah, Kenzo!
	1:17pm Gerry from Miami: Todd, that Hollies show was super! Thanks! Looking forward to the Chris Hillman interview this Saturday.
	♥ 1:18pm Pseu Braun: Take it from Gerry. This man has taste and infinite patience with the ribbing here.
	1:19pm Gerry from Miami: I call it the black page with the white-background playlist, the page that comes up when you first log in to the stream.
	♥ 1:19pm Krys O.: The pop-up player?
	1:19pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks Gerry! and Pseu...thanks for introducing me to Nick Frater (among other acts).
	♥ 1:19pm Pseu Braun: The mobile version, Gerry?
	♥ 1:20pm Krys O.: The radio rethink link.
	♥ 1:20pm Gaylord Fields: @Gerry from Miami: So are you saying that "black" playlist is separate but not equal?
	♥ 1:20pm Bill in W.O.: Hi Pseu! I've missed the live experience for lame real life stuff lately. Keep doing that voodoo that you do.
	♥ 1:20pm Krys O.: I just checked the Radio Rethink playlist for the first time ever and Because is not there.
	♥ 1:21pm Pseu Braun: Gaylord i can't lulzzxx
	1:21pm Gerry from Miami: I am listening on a cell phone. Is the laptop/desktop/tablet using a different format?
	♥ 1:21pm Krys O.: I've never gone by Radio Rethink because they'll have weirdly wrong images for album art.
	♥ 1:22pm Gaylord Fields: @Pseu: Thanks, luv!
	♥ 1:23pm Krys O.: Because is on the app playlist. Radio Rethink appears to be the culprit.
	♥ 1:23pm happymaan: How to With John Wilson has been renewed for season 2!
	1:23pm Mcb64: Hello fellow listeners
	♥ 1:24pm happymaan: I just say cause I can see that show going well with the WFMU crowd.
	♥ 1:24pm Pseu Braun: Gotta get to more of the Wilson eps. I'm running behind!
	♥ 1:24pm Barkevious Shabazz: Episode title:Black List Matters.
	1:24pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Radio Rethink showed Neil Young's "Homegrown" album for Bird Streets.
	1:25pm Gerry from Miami: Thanks, Krys O! Thought I was seeing (or not seeing!) things for a while there. Radio can be a messy business. I'm just glad it is there at all.
	♥ 1:26pm Krys O.: Just what I'm talkin' about, Todd-o-phonic.
	1:28pm Mcb64: Hey fellow listeners when i sign in and i try to favorite a song it takes me back to the login
	♥ 1:29pm Krys O.: @Mcb64: Are you on a desktop computer or mobile?
	♥ 1:29pm Krys O.: Bobby Elliott
	1:29pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Bobby Elliott!
	♥ 1:29pm happymaan: The show just gets better and better once you get with his flow. But there's only 6 episodes, and that took him 2 years.
	1:30pm KlausVonB: Hi Pseu
	1:31pm Mcb64: @Keys O mobile and i cant chat from the website either i have to add some numbers
	♥ 1:31pm Krys O.: I always screw up Eric Haydock's name and call him Eric Manchester.
	♥ 1:32pm happymaan: This is a perfect example of when I have many perfectly fine films to watch but I keep WFMU on instead.
	♥ 1:33pm Krys O.: Bernie Calvert and Graham looked like siblings.
	♥ 1:33pm Gaylord Fields: @Krys O: And Tony Hicks looks about 14 years old.
	♥ 1:36pm Pseu Braun: Bobby Elliott. Bianca Bob always told me never to trust boys with two First names/last names
	♥ 1:36pm The Donut King: Will never forget the first time I heard anything past the Everly's hits - was in a record store in the UK in the 90s and checked out It's Everly Time and A Date With the Everly Brothers. Mind was completely blown.
	♥ 1:38pm Krys O.: @Gaylord: I still have a crush on Tony Hicks and think he's one of the best guitarists ever. He made a banjo sound like a sitar.
	1:39pm Gerry from Miami: The Everlys sure got adventurous in their choice of material during the latter half of their long singing career. True icons, Don and Phil!!
	1:39pm Oleh from Pittsburgh: I’ve heard that one needs to be real careful like with anyone/thing with “Wayne” for a middle name. Criminal. YYY chromosome
	♥ 1:40pm Krys O.: @The Donut King: Phil Everly sings on Roy Wood's Mustard album. It's glorious.
	♥ 1:41pm Gaylord Fields: @Pseu: On the other hand, advice coming from someone with a girl's first name and then a boy's first name is always trustworthy! @Krys: Tony is also one of my all-time top guitarists full stop! And you chose your crushes well.
	1:41pm Dennis Diken: Diggin’ the noise! Hi Pseu & everyone!
	♥ 1:42pm Pseu Braun: Here's Denny!
	♥ 1:42pm Krys O.: FWIW: I crush hard on Keith Relf too.
	♥ 1:43pm Pseu Braun: @gaylord I'm thinkin real hard abt any gal I know who qualifies!
	1:43pm Dennis Diken: Btw, I echo TOPT’s thanks for hipping us to Nick Frater!
	♥ 1:43pm bbob: Boy W/2 first names NG= advice still holds!
	1:44pm Gerry from Miami: Krys, Keith Relf never got the respect he deserved. Could never steal the spotlight from Clapton, Beck or Page.
	♥ 1:44pm Pseu Braun: oh yeah I was "dating" a guy with w/2 first names and you warned me b4 there was any trouble - I shoulda listened!
	♥ 1:45pm Pseu Braun: Keith Relf talk about legit underrated.
	1:46pm egould310: Dig that Midnight Steppers tune. Thanks for gipping me to the new sounds, Pseu! Great show.
	♥ 1:47pm Gaylord Fields: @Pseu: I was thinking of Bianca Bob (as I sometimes do, speaking of swoon-worthy).
	♥ 1:47pm Pseu Braun: MOAR PAUL WILLIAMS
	♥ 1:47pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Gerry, were you originally saying that you couldn't see Because on this "blue playlist" (the real playlist page) or just that you couldn't see on the "black playlist" (the Radio Rethink pop-up player)?
	1:47pm Doc Rock: I
	♥ 1:51pm Krys O.: The vocals on that Plasticsoul, Mannilown reminded me of Robert Harrison of Cotton Mather.
	1:51pm Gerry from Miami: Well, Kenzo, there are two playlists, depending on the page you're logged into and the device you are using. I can access them both. I'm not going to lose any sleep over it. I'm just digging the music.
	♥ 1:52pm jwekselblatt: Love The Lemon Twigs. Thanks.
	♥ 1:52pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Gerry, I'd like to know if the only playlist you weren't seeing "Because" on was the black one.
	♥ 1:52pm Krys O.: @Kenzo: The Radio Rethink playlist does not have The Beatles.
	♥ 1:53pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): @Krys O: I know, thanks. I just want to get certain on what Gerry was specifically reporting. Oh, hi Pseu!
	♥ 1:55pm jwekselblatt: I think The Lemon Twigs have been listening to The Beach Boys!
	1:55pm Gerry from Miami: Yes, that one didn't show "Because." And Pseu even said so. These technicalities can bog you down and spoil the enjoyment of the program. Let's just put it to rest for today. Case closed!
	1:56pm Marko: I tuned in late, so maybe this was part of your on-air chat, but perhaps surprisingly, Keith Relf was a founder of Renaissance, a band he co-founded with fellow Yardbirds member Jim McCarty and three other members, including keyboardist John Hawken. Their debut album was produced by fellow Yardbirds member Paul Samwell-Smith. The band eventually transformed into the Annie Haslam-fronted ensemble.
	1:56pm Fletchernyc: Love her.
	1:57pm mathlover2+2: on my playlist, there is a column "Artist", a column "Track", and third with the heading "Message from Satan". Is that correct?
	1:57pm Gerry from Miami: Another of the terrific new bands, the Lemon Twigs. Yes, they have internalized Brian Wilson and pals, for sure.
	♥ 1:59pm ParUbi: I keep coming back for THIS ORGAN MUSIC
	♥ 1:59pm Red Rua: Had a big road trip planned this past summer to see a couple of Angel Olsen shows but 2020 had other plans. Although that's pretty high on the list, it's still not what I hate most about 2020.
	2:02pm Gerry from Miami: Marko, I saw the Annie Haslam version of Renaissance at Cornell University in Ithaca, NY, in the fall of 1977. Quite a delightful show, complete with a huge, rotating mirror ball installed in the ceiling of the auditorium. That generation of the band was quite a bit different from Relf's.
	2:07pm ww: Pseuzie and all hookers! Stay safe, at least physically. We all take great risk mentally tuning in on Thursdays. Never know who is gonna get hammered for what. Priceless.
	2:09pm Gerry from Miami: Marko, just to put that timeline into perspective, the fall of 1977 was that fateful time when the Sex Pistols cancelled their appearance on Saturday Night Live and were replaced by Elvis Costello and the Attractions. Pop music was forever changed!
	♥ 2:10pm PMD: @ww lol
	2:11pm winston legthigh: done-able haha pseu! hello gang!
	2:11pm ww: Waiting for the for EFD Xmas Funktacular!
	2:14pm ww: ...."Taking Care of Christmas". Get with the spirit, sister. No typical Pseuzabelle wet blanket this year. We had enough of that sh*t. Put a smile on that face and be that bright light of hope that we know you are for all of your faithful followers.
	2:14pm Gerry from Miami: Todd mentioned the Yule Logs archive on Clay Pigeon's show earlier this week. Said that was the place to go for WFMU Christmas tunes.
	♥ 2:16pm p/b: love this doomer where has this been all my life
	♥ 2:18pm Pseu Braun: Doomer amirite? New and wunnerful
	♥ 2:18pm Barkevious Shabazz: Doomer sounding a little Lytle.
	2:18pm Fox: Pseu, I'm glad you mentioned the madness of the sunshine today. I thought maybe it was just me. My apartment is BLINDINGly bright. I dig it, but... it IS a lot.
	♥ 2:19pm Pseu Braun: oh, shit gotta swap the title/band name my bad!
	♥ 2:20pm Pseu Braun: hey Fox! yeah, got some heavy brown blinds but still....
	♥ 2:21pm Pseu Braun: So, the SONG is Doomer, the band: Obscura Hail
	♥ 2:24pm Pseu Braun: all, did I miss a playlist entry after Frankie Cosmos?
	♥ 2:26pm Huge: Personal Space
	♥ 2:27pm Pseu Braun: THANK U
	♥ 2:30pm Krys O.: The sun hangs low in the sky this time of year and I have to draw the curtains in my office to avoid the painful glare due to photohobia which sounds like something it's not.
	2:31pm Marko: Wow, Gerry. Autumn 1977 introduced many of us to Elvis Costello. For the music fans into the rapidly evolving punk and New Wave scene, the late 1970s teemed with artists who created a tremendous gush of notable music. So many commercially succeeded, and so many have been remaindered in our collective memories. In that era, as with you, I'd seen the Annie Haslam version of Renaissance. Decades later, as a journalist, I interviewed her as a preview to the band's appearance at Outpost in the Burbs in Montclair. As Psue notes, great music endures, as she cites Todd's terrific show that included his interview with the Hollies member (whose fame dates from 50+ years ago). And splendid new music always emerges, which is why the playlists of Psue and her WFMU colleagues are essential for listeners like me who need the band names and their tunes. Thanks, Psue, for today's stream of sweet/sour/salty/ (sometimes) bitter songs. Isn't Umani an overlooked band from Hoboken?
	♥ 2:33pm swivs: Wow. That was not Blur. Hmm. The Moons... Very nice.
	♥ 2:39pm p/b: Damn I know this voice don't I?
	♥ 2:40pm Krys O.: Robert Palmer and Elkie Brooks were in a band called Dada.
	2:41pm Gerry from Miami: True words, Marko. Had the good fortune to see live performances of Joe Jackson, Graham Parker and the Rumour, Elvis C., Squeeze, the Clash, X, English Beat, XTC, REM, Pere Ubu, Dead Boys, Howard Devoto and Magazine, Devo and many others. What a great period in pop/rock history.
	2:41pm Marko: Sorry, Pseu, In typing your name, I juxtaposed the vowels...
	♥ 2:43pm happymaan: Hey ya swivs, it's your buddy who makes popcorn.
	♥ 2:45pm Krys O.: You've hit the proverbial wall, Pseu. Hydrate yourself and decompress. Hugs!
	2:46pm Listening Out There: Pseu, you're doing fine, just fine...
	2:47pm ww: YES- Children of the Pseu!
	2:47pm morphe': Thanks Pseu and all.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Knew a horrible Glom from Bklyn - 1980s Ne'erDoWell ...
	♥ 2:49pm Krys O.: Speaking of crushes: young Burgess Meredith
