	🥁 ♥ 10:05pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hello Mike! The new maître d' you hired for the Starlite Lounge seems a little drunk. But maybe that's why you hired him.

	🥁 ♥ 10:10pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hello Listener Yvang from the comments board!
	🥁 ♥ 10:11pm Yvang: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:10 Only at the fanciest places!
	♥ 10:11pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @10:06 I predict that, like last week's Barbara Stanwyck gif, the skeletons will throb in perfect rhythm to everything we play tonight.
	🥁 ♥ 10:12pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Yvang @10:11 Of course! The full moon rising over the river tonight was especially beautiful. It's breezy, so the water was choppy, which reflected the moonlight in lovely patterns.
	10:13pm von schlep: Wait … wasn’t JCBlack “the Indian of the group” - Zappa (Or was that someone else?). If not, blame it on Early onset Dementia.
	🥁 ♥ 10:13pm Yvang: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:12 I want to paint that!
	♥ 10:13pm Mike Lupica: ↳ von schlep @10:13 Early onset dementia can be cured with huge quantities of Sanka.
	🥁 ♥ 10:14pm Yvang: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:11 They seem to have so much fun.
	🥁 ♥ 10:14pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Yvang @10:13 I have some photos from previous full moons I can email you. They're taken with my iphone, so they're not the highest resolution, but they might be ideal for a painting project.
	🥁 ♥ 10:15pm coelacanth∅: greetings Mike and mandate listeners
	10:16pm von schlep: Ooops !! Hahaha 😆! Wendy & I must have the same kind of Dementia …. “the GOOD kind …! 😜🙃🥳
	🥁 ♥ 10:16pm Yvang: Please do! I'll try my best with the colors.
	♥ 10:16pm Mike Lupica: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:15 How-DEE!
	🥁 ♥ 10:19pm Yvang: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:14 10:16 was my answer
	🥁 ♥ 10:21pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:15 Hey coela!
	🥁 ♥ 10:22pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ von schlep @10:16 @von schlep: Our dementia is the best kind of all! :-D
	🥁 ♥ 10:23pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Yvang @10:19 Got it! Thank you. The colors might be fairly... un... monotone. But perhaps not in your artistic representation! I'll see what I can dig up and send you now. Check your email in a few minutes...
	🥁 ♥ 10:25pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Accra Electronica" by "African Head Charge" This is awesome.
	10:27pm von schlep: Count me Fish & Chips ALL-IN on licorice stick clarinet augmented Head Charged up to the maximum !
	🥁 ♥ 10:29pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:21 hi Wendy! (...getting ready to go to work)
	🥁 ♥ 10:31pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "My Old Flame" by "Thin Lizzy" Aww, this Thin Lizzy song... it's one o' them heartbreaking ones...
	🥁 ♥ 10:32pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:29 Are you in a time zone that indicates you work nights?
	🥁 ♥ 10:32pm Alex from Media: "I'm gonna burn an ex in your head"
	🥁 ♥ 10:34pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:23 ...when we had that "super blue blood moon" a few years back (2018 or 19) and were told DO NOT LOOK AT IT i took pictures of it with my camera's feature that allowed the viewfinder to pivot 180º, so i could look down at it while focusing the camera up at it. the images looked good on the camera; but unfortunately the camera was stolen before i uploaded them to my computer so i never saw them blown up.
	🥁 ♥ 10:35pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:32 same zone as thee. part-time, 2nd job. usually just 2 nights/week
	10:38pm von schlep: Gold Duck by Terry (Call Me Terry) = is Now my super duper (Alice Cooper 😏) favorite band! Is this a new band, cause I’d chase this cold duck 🦆 to its tail end. - reminded me of the great British DIY 80s scene!?
	🥁 ♥ 10:38pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:34 We weren't supposed to look at that moon? Well, that might explain what's wrong with me. Seriously, though, boo for your camera getting stolen!
	🥁 ♥ 10:41pm Yvang: I got the photos Wendy Thanks! Gorgeous full moonz indeed!
	🥁 ♥ 10:41pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:35 I hope it goes well. I used to like working evenings / nights, but these days, oy gevalt. When I have a 6 or 7pm meeting I gotta cover, and it gets out at 8 or 9, and it's still about an hour's drive to get home... Well, aging. It ain't no joke.
	🥁 ♥ 10:42pm Alex from Media: Newcomer. I just followed you here thinking you knew where you were going.
	♥ 10:43pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @10:42 I just missed my exit on the turnpike. Lucky I got off before the Vince Lombardi rest area.
	🥁 ♥ 10:44pm Yvang: I was lurking at the show you were doing at this other radio station, the one with the name starting with a W.
	♥ 10:45pm Mike Lupica: WART-FM
	🥁 ♥ 10:45pm Wendy del Formaggio: And now I shall share a link to the Village Voice (RIP) write-up of when then-NY Gov. Spitzer's class-action payola lawsuit brought $$ to WFMU to pair with Lincoln Center to bring The Ex there, along with some kickass Ethiopian musicians. And I got to attend! Here's the link: www.villagevoice.com...
	🥁 ♥ 10:45pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:41 Thanks. yeah it seriously screws up my circadian rhythms, and the sleep problems i've had all my life and was finally getting worked out when i took this job! oh well. this too shall pass.
	♥ 10:46pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:45 A wonderful evening that was!
	10:46pm von schlep: When me & the ones in the know go out to eat, we refer to “going Dutch” as “Scrabbling at the Loch Nessy”. How we Charlie Parker house roll …
	🥁 ♥ 10:46pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:45 Hang in there, my friend. I also know from sleep issues. I hope you can find another way to get your needs met that doesn't mess with your circ. rhythms.
	🥁 ♥ 10:48pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:46 It sure was! The music AND the people-watching was excellent. I feel so fortunate that I was living in the area at the time, and I could be at the show.
	🥁 ♥ 10:49pm Alex from Media: Been lurking on a Breton station that will foray into this old Ethiopian jazz on occasion. New world for me.
	🥁 ♥ 10:50pm Yvang: My sleep issues are why I can listen to THIS show and many others.
	🥁 ♥ 10:51pm Yvang: ↳ Alex from Media @10:49 I want to know more about this Breton station, I live in brittany.
	🥁 ♥ 10:53pm coelacanth∅: my flying saucer's here. Thanks Mike! 'night y'all
	🥁 ♥ 10:55pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Yvang @10:51 I don't live in Brittany and I want to know more about this Breton station.
	🥁 ♥ 10:57pm Alex from Media: Radio Bro Gwened. Focus is on French and Breton music. But you might hear anything from within the francophone world.
	♥ 10:58pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Song: "You Know my Style" by "Czarface" Top shelf editing there...
	🥁 ♥ 10:59pm Yvang: ↳ Alex from Media @10:57 Maybe they played this breton/ethiopian band called Badume's.
	🥁 ♥ 10:59pm Alex from Media: You gotta be ready for a lot of tunes with some instrument sounds like a bagpipe hooked up to a new years party favor horn.
	🥁 ♥ 10:59pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Alex from Media @10:59 I'm a WFMU DJ. I'm always ready for that.
	🥁 ♥ 11:00pm Andrew Waterloo: time for beer and samosas
	🥁 ♥ 11:02pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Alex from Media @10:57 This is cool! It's also pleasantly challenging my brain because... pas d'Anglais! And it makes me want to know more about Breton. Thanks, Alex!
	♥ 11:03pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Andrew Waterloo @11:00 100% my kinda party.
	🥁 ♥ 11:05pm Alex from Media: @ Yvang. I recall the stuff I heard was old timey, like from the '50s. But there's some other movements going on. Sort of a French revival of Reunion island music.
	🥁 ♥ 11:06pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Eso es el Amor" by "Chaino" Quiz time! Which WFMU DJ wrote the liner notes for this reissue?
	🥁 ♥ 11:07pm Alex from Media: @ Mike, fret not. Exotic sounds of Chaino pulling me back to the show.
	11:08pm von schlep: Per-chance : IRWEEN ?!?
	🥁 ♥ 11:08pm Yvang: Meanwhile, back in the Jungle...

	🥁 ♥ 11:11pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Heteronormative Horseshit Blues" by "Shilpa Ray" Wins the prize for Best Song Title.
	♥ 11:13pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @11:11 Oh yeah, she does not screw around with the arresting titles. Check the rest of this one -- lotsa great ones.

	11:18pm von schlep: Shilpa mighta taken it one step further by adding - “On Fire”🔥 to the end of “Portrait of a Lady ____”.
	🥁 ♥ 11:18pm Wendy del Formaggio: OMG, Carnival of Souls is a creeeepy movie. I should watch it again.
	♥ 11:18pm Chop Scott: I love having your voice back in my space here Mike!
	🥁 ♥ 11:19pm Wendy del Formaggio: @von schlep: I think I know you by another name, ja? And you live a little bit north of me, ja?

	♥ 11:24pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Chop Scott @11:18 Chop, as long as you don't hear me in your toaster, it remains my distinct honor to be here.
	11:26pm mmzm: yay!

	♥ 11:31pm Chop Scott: I hear a lot of voices around here, and yours is the most welcome!
	♥ 11:31pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @11:30 Same!
	♥ 11:31pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Chop Scott @11:31 Ha! Alrighty then.
	🥁 ♥ 11:34pm Wendy del Formaggio: Back to the Breton stuff... I just learned that my local coffee shop has been feeding me a bit of traditional Breton cuisine! Kouign-amann, which is the holy trinity of butter, flour, and sugar, and I order one whenever they have them. Yay!
	11:34pm von schleppendorf: gee-to-the-wiz: i thought I was incogneeto. Since being sassily sussed, I’ve reverted to my full moniker.🤭. When did Gaylord start at WFMU? (I think I may have just left the pre-streaming terrestrial area, just prior to his start?!
	🥁 ♥ 11:37pm Wendy del Formaggio: haha, sorry, von schleppendorf! Your writing voice always shines through. :-) I think Gaylord started in... uh... early-90s? I know I've been listening to his show for a long time. He's one of my fave DJs and human beings. <3
	🥁 ♥ 11:39pm Yvang: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @11:34 Oh the Kouign-amann! Interestingly britanny does not have any dedicated cheese. Which make butter the real breton kind of cheese. No actually butter is like a religion here.
	🥁 ♥ 11:39pm Wendy del Formaggio: The Moon Bros.-->Alicja-Pop-->Nabihah Iqbal segues were mighty-fine, Mike Lupica! But now it's time for me to get ready for bed. Someone can take my table near the Starlite Lounge DJ booth. G'night, everyone!
	🥁 ♥ 11:39pm Alex from Media: Gnight Wendy. Thanks for the culinary tip.
	♥ 11:40pm Mike Lupica: Thanks for hangin' out!
	🥁 ♥ 11:40pm Yvang: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @11:39 Good night Wendy, see you on monday at the BFYC!
	🥁 ♥ 11:41pm Alex from Media: Word Jazz happening.
	🥁 ♥ 11:41pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Yvang @11:39 I learned a few years ago that my paternal grandfather's parents came from Alsace, which is very far from Breton. but yeah, butter is one of my spiritual beliefs, for sure. :-)
	11:41pm von schleppendorf: ✅ ok, he may have been a rookie (👁️ departed June 1994 for northern re-groins). Ken alerted me that it wouldn’t be too long before an oncoming new technology would be arriving to have us all be able to listen “globally”. The man is a fookin’ VISIONARY!!!
	🥁 ♥ 11:42pm Wendy del Formaggio: And now I shall go have dreams of butter pastries...
	11:47pm von schleppendorf: @Yvang: re Brittany: know anybody by the family name Brochet? (Phillipe, Sylvie & Patrick, etc)?
	11:49pm von schleppendorf: Ooops , Sylvie & Patrick Plantay?

	♥ 12:13am Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @12:11 Vicky Leandros has another song that's about Paul McCartney and every time I play it, someone calls/posts out of concern that Paul McCartney has died.
	🥁 ♥ 12:18am Alex from Media: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:13 I just Googled Vicky Leandros to discover not only is she Greek singing in German, but she was at one time deputy mayor of Piraeus!
	12:19am von schleppendorf: Theo, by Vicky Leandros (Die Vicky Leandros Story / Grössten Hits): man, I was really feelin’ reelin’ & squeelin’ over die Vicky die & her gross hittens. - she could bring me ABBA for breakfast as far as i could be flung.

	♥ 12:55am Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @12:54 I think the single was '82 and the album a few years later?
	♥ 12:56am Roberto: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:55 Posiblemente
	♥ 12:56am Mike Lupica: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:55 For all the cocaine in the 80s, things moved slowly sometimes.

	🥁 ♥ 10:09pm Yvang: Hi Wendy from the Bellows Falls Yacht Club!
	♥ 10:09pm Chop Scott: Super glad to have you there Mike!
	♥ 10:10pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:09 Yep!

	🥁 ♥ 10:11pm Yvang: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:10 Only at the fanciest places!
	♥ 10:11pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @10:06 I predict that, like last week's Barbara Stanwyck gif, the skeletons will throb in perfect rhythm to everything we play tonight.
	🥁 ♥ 10:12pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Yvang @10:11 Of course! The full moon rising over the river tonight was especially beautiful. It's breezy, so the water was choppy, which reflected the moonlight in lovely patterns.
	10:13pm von schlep: Wait … wasn’t JCBlack “the Indian of the group” - Zappa (Or was that someone else?). If not, blame it on Early onset Dementia.
	🥁 ♥ 10:13pm Yvang: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:12 I want to paint that!
	♥ 10:13pm Mike Lupica: ↳ von schlep @10:13 Early onset dementia can be cured with huge quantities of Sanka.

	🥁 ♥ 10:14pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Yvang @10:13 I have some photos from previous full moons I can email you. They're taken with my iphone, so they're not the highest resolution, but they might be ideal for a painting project.
	🥁 ♥ 10:15pm coelacanth∅: greetings Mike and mandate listeners
	10:16pm von schlep: Ooops !! Hahaha 😆! Wendy & I must have the same kind of Dementia …. “the GOOD kind …! 😜🙃🥳

	🥁 ♥ 10:21pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:15 Hey coela!
	🥁 ♥ 10:22pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ von schlep @10:16 @von schlep: Our dementia is the best kind of all! :-D
	🥁 ♥ 10:23pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Yvang @10:19 Got it! Thank you. The colors might be fairly... un... monotone. But perhaps not in your artistic representation! I'll see what I can dig up and send you now. Check your email in a few minutes...

	🥁 ♥ 10:32pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:29 Are you in a time zone that indicates you work nights?
	🥁 ♥ 10:32pm Alex from Media: "I'm gonna burn an ex in your head"
	🥁 ♥ 10:34pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:23 ...when we had that "super blue blood moon" a few years back (2018 or 19) and were told DO NOT LOOK AT IT i took pictures of it with my camera's feature that allowed the viewfinder to pivot 180º, so i could look down at it while focusing the camera up at it. the images looked good on the camera; but unfortunately the camera was stolen before i uploaded them to my computer so i never saw them blown up.
	🥁 ♥ 10:35pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:32 same zone as thee. part-time, 2nd job. usually just 2 nights/week
	10:38pm von schlep: Gold Duck by Terry (Call Me Terry) = is Now my super duper (Alice Cooper 😏) favorite band! Is this a new band, cause I’d chase this cold duck 🦆 to its tail end. - reminded me of the great British DIY 80s scene!?
	🥁 ♥ 10:38pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:34 We weren't supposed to look at that moon? Well, that might explain what's wrong with me. Seriously, though, boo for your camera getting stolen!
	🥁 ♥ 10:41pm Yvang: I got the photos Wendy Thanks! Gorgeous full moonz indeed!
	🥁 ♥ 10:41pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:35 I hope it goes well. I used to like working evenings / nights, but these days, oy gevalt. When I have a 6 or 7pm meeting I gotta cover, and it gets out at 8 or 9, and it's still about an hour's drive to get home... Well, aging. It ain't no joke.
	🥁 ♥ 10:42pm Alex from Media: Newcomer. I just followed you here thinking you knew where you were going.
	♥ 10:43pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @10:42 I just missed my exit on the turnpike. Lucky I got off before the Vince Lombardi rest area.
	🥁 ♥ 10:44pm Yvang: I was lurking at the show you were doing at this other radio station, the one with the name starting with a W.
	♥ 10:45pm Mike Lupica: WART-FM
	🥁 ♥ 10:45pm Wendy del Formaggio: And now I shall share a link to the Village Voice (RIP) write-up of when then-NY Gov. Spitzer's class-action payola lawsuit brought $$ to WFMU to pair with Lincoln Center to bring The Ex there, along with some kickass Ethiopian musicians. And I got to attend! Here's the link: www.villagevoice.com...
	🥁 ♥ 10:45pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:41 Thanks. yeah it seriously screws up my circadian rhythms, and the sleep problems i've had all my life and was finally getting worked out when i took this job! oh well. this too shall pass.
	♥ 10:46pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @10:45 A wonderful evening that was!
	10:46pm von schlep: When me & the ones in the know go out to eat, we refer to “going Dutch” as “Scrabbling at the Loch Nessy”. How we Charlie Parker house roll …
	🥁 ♥ 10:46pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:45 Hang in there, my friend. I also know from sleep issues. I hope you can find another way to get your needs met that doesn't mess with your circ. rhythms.
	🥁 ♥ 10:48pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:46 It sure was! The music AND the people-watching was excellent. I feel so fortunate that I was living in the area at the time, and I could be at the show.
	🥁 ♥ 10:49pm Alex from Media: Been lurking on a Breton station that will foray into this old Ethiopian jazz on occasion. New world for me.
	🥁 ♥ 10:50pm Yvang: My sleep issues are why I can listen to THIS show and many others.
	🥁 ♥ 10:51pm Yvang: ↳ Alex from Media @10:49 I want to know more about this Breton station, I live in brittany.
	🥁 ♥ 10:53pm coelacanth∅: my flying saucer's here. Thanks Mike! 'night y'all
	🥁 ♥ 10:55pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Yvang @10:51 I don't live in Brittany and I want to know more about this Breton station.
	🥁 ♥ 10:57pm Alex from Media: Radio Bro Gwened. Focus is on French and Breton music. But you might hear anything from within the francophone world.
	♥ 10:58pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Song: "You Know my Style" by "Czarface" Top shelf editing there...
	🥁 ♥ 10:59pm Yvang: ↳ Alex from Media @10:57 Maybe they played this breton/ethiopian band called Badume's.
	🥁 ♥ 10:59pm Alex from Media: You gotta be ready for a lot of tunes with some instrument sounds like a bagpipe hooked up to a new years party favor horn.
	🥁 ♥ 10:59pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Alex from Media @10:59 I'm a WFMU DJ. I'm always ready for that.
	🥁 ♥ 11:00pm Andrew Waterloo: time for beer and samosas

	♥ 11:03pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Andrew Waterloo @11:00 100% my kinda party.
	🥁 ♥ 11:05pm Alex from Media: @ Yvang. I recall the stuff I heard was old timey, like from the '50s. But there's some other movements going on. Sort of a French revival of Reunion island music.
	🥁 ♥ 11:06pm Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "Eso es el Amor" by "Chaino" Quiz time! Which WFMU DJ wrote the liner notes for this reissue?
	🥁 ♥ 11:07pm Alex from Media: @ Mike, fret not. Exotic sounds of Chaino pulling me back to the show.

	🥁 ♥ 11:34pm Wendy del Formaggio: Back to the Breton stuff... I just learned that my local coffee shop has been feeding me a bit of traditional Breton cuisine! Kouign-amann, which is the holy trinity of butter, flour, and sugar, and I order one whenever they have them. Yay!
	11:34pm von schleppendorf: gee-to-the-wiz: i thought I was incogneeto. Since being sassily sussed, I’ve reverted to my full moniker.🤭. When did Gaylord start at WFMU? (I think I may have just left the pre-streaming terrestrial area, just prior to his start?!
	🥁 ♥ 11:37pm Wendy del Formaggio: haha, sorry, von schleppendorf! Your writing voice always shines through. :-) I think Gaylord started in... uh... early-90s? I know I've been listening to his show for a long time. He's one of my fave DJs and human beings. <3
	🥁 ♥ 11:39pm Yvang: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @11:34 Oh the Kouign-amann! Interestingly britanny does not have any dedicated cheese. Which make butter the real breton kind of cheese. No actually butter is like a religion here.
	🥁 ♥ 11:39pm Wendy del Formaggio: The Moon Bros.-->Alicja-Pop-->Nabihah Iqbal segues were mighty-fine, Mike Lupica! But now it's time for me to get ready for bed. Someone can take my table near the Starlite Lounge DJ booth. G'night, everyone!

	11:41pm von schleppendorf: ✅ ok, he may have been a rookie (👁️ departed June 1994 for northern re-groins). Ken alerted me that it wouldn’t be too long before an oncoming new technology would be arriving to have us all be able to listen “globally”. The man is a fookin’ VISIONARY!!!
	🥁 ♥ 11:42pm Wendy del Formaggio: And now I shall go have dreams of butter pastries...
