	3:29pm Birdman: @Kpx I definitely have a thing for pelicans. Their diving mesmerizes me.
	3:29pm Becky Ebenkamp: Oh! So you can type what you want in the title field?

	3:40pm Birdman: @Kpx 💦💦🌊💦💦
	3:41pm mariano: Hi TOPT, everyone!
	3:42pm Benoni: Good video for 36 hours. Filmed in Ordsall I think. The Smiths later filmed around there for the Stop me video.
	3:43pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Hey Mariano! Great track too, Benoni...
	3:43pm Becky Ebenkamp: Hi, Mariano!
	3:44pm pL: Rockabilly rap
	3:46pm mariano: Hey, what's up Becky!
	3:47pm Gaylord Fields: JCC is the auspicious result of when you cross Bob Dylan with Mark E Smith and Allen Ginsberg.
	3:48pm Becky Ebenkamp: Just learnin’ about Cuba and havin’ some food…
	3:48pm Becky Ebenkamp: Ha, Gaylord!
	3:49pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Gaylord Fields: JCC actually did a few gigs with Ginsberg.
	3:49pm pL: Bob Dylan is an actual musician
	3:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& a bit of KeefRichards/JohnnyThunders or something but no gittar...
	3:50pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks, Todd! That must have been quite the affair!
	3:51pm Kpx: Didn't he have the nickname of - Woo Woo Allen Ginsberg?
	3:51pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Good afternoon! Checking in from the Jersey Shore today 🌤🌊🌤
	3:51pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Gaylord Fields: As no doubt was the JCC, Slim Gaillard, Gil Scott-Heron triple bill!
	3:51pm Benoni: Another bit of trivia, John Cooper Clarke appeared at the very end of the Dennis and Louis documentary which I think I rented from WFMU!
	3:52pm Becky Ebenkamp: Welcome, Jeff!
	3:52pm Gaylord Fields: @Todd: What the what?! Working on that time machine right now.
	3:53pm Brian in New Orleans: Help! Who is the white hip hop duo out of England that sound just like JCC...
	3:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sleaford Mods ?
	👻 3:54pm John L: Brian: Are you thinking of Sleaford Mods?
	3:56pm Brian in New Orleans!!: Yes...huge fan
	3:56pm Gaylord Fields: @Todd: You, me, and JCC need to watch Svengoolie together.
	3:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: JCC is a MonsterKid !
	👻 3:57pm John L: Tom Tryon later became a writer of Gothic fiction: The Other and Harvest Home. Better writer than actor.
	3:58pm Brian in New Orleans: @ John L @ Rabbit... not sure why Sleaford Mods never blew up...shit is tight and his wordplay is on point
	3:59pm Becky Ebenkamp: ha ha
	3:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mod was an import of Italian styles very early on (sharp kit & scooters) ?...
	4:00pm Anita: So amazing to hear these stories. Thanks!
	4:00pm Brian in New Orleans: But yeah...JCC is new to me ...cant wait for a deep dive...
	4:01pm Gaylord Fields: @Brian: My favorite LP of his is Disguise in Love; I suggest you start there. Ace poetry with slashing punky backing that is the best of both worlds.
	4:02pm Colin in Durham, England: What a tiMe to switch on! Seen JCC 4 times. My favourite performer. Nice one Todd
	4:02pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks Colin!
	4:03pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: I love the way he says "rugged outdoor pursuits". Twice, no less.
	4:03pm Brian in New Orleans: @Gaylord. thanks! you will hear that shortly along the Mississippi where we live in the Marigny
	4:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...small (too small to mention?) overlap venn diagram w/ Ian Drury...
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: *Dury & the Blockheads...
	4:07pm Old Dave: Evelyn Waugh did he say? Wow.
	4:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Poe's reviews 'mixed' when he was alive yerknow...
	4:10pm clarke: oi mates!! (no relation)
	4:12pm clarke: hiya chester - good to see you're back! mariano, did i see that you were 'angin' about??
	4:17pm McGroovey: JCC is a guy my dad would have described as being "inoculated with a Victrola needle".
	4:18pm Sissophonic Cheryl: Amazing stuff, boo.
	4:20pm Gaylord Fields: @McGroovey: JCC certainly is a pop culture sponge, a type that rings more than a tiny bit familiar to us here.
	4:22pm clarke: anyone seems fair game to you tonight, Fields!
	4:26pm Gaylord Fields: clarke, I am tasting my favorite new perfume — success! (I bet your namesake JCC can quote Sweet Smell of Success as well as we can.)
	4:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Richard Penniman' still make muh ears stand up straight.
	4:27pm clarke: you're walking around blind - without a cane!
	4:27pm pL: Little Richard is underrated
	4:28pm clarke: i dunno if he is any relation, but the clarke family i am part of hails from the cornwall area
	4:28pm clarke: - came over on the mayflower
	4:29pm Vincemole: JCC is a damn treasure. I remember the first time I heard Suspended Sentence, I was just bowled over that the guy could write something so simultaneously off the charts nihilistic and guffaw inducing. Thanks for having him on Todd, you get the best guests in the biz.
	4:29pm Victrola Tom: Been listening from the pool! The tunes are so hot, I have to stay wet!
	4:30pm pL: Little Richard is underrated
	4:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: JohnnyRotten X Dr.Suess
	4:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Writing & Reading are actually different skills. He got it covered.
	4:31pm Andres: Could we put Twat on a birthday card?
	4:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Reading as in recitation...
	4:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'I Wanna Be Yours' presumably from Dylan's 'I Wanna Be Your Lover' - a riffjam on 'I Wanna Be Your Man' as on Thin Wild Mercury Music boot, or I presume the Bootleg Series somewhere...
	4:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Patti! Der. Lydon / Rotten actually a great lyricist
	4:55pm clarke: those strange vocal overdubs by lou always get my curiosity going.
	4:59pm Dennis Diken: Yay, Johnny Ray!!
	5:00pm clarke: and celeste!!
	5:00pm Andres: Milk sops is my favourite.
	5:01pm McGroovey: Great JCC interview, Todd. Well, he didn't really let you talk much, but he had interesting things to say.
	👻 5:01pm Micheal: Great interview, thanks, Todd! Cryin's for babies!
	5:02pm Andres: Prince of Wails. Took me a minute.
	5:03pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks @McGroovey and @Michael!
	5:03pm Andres: Cassius Clay!!

	5:05pm Fredericks: Cassius Clay is fantastic. The production was great too. Was that from vinyl, Todd?
	5:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Cassius produced by SamCooke ?
	5:06pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Fredericks: Unfortunately, I have the Phil Flowers "I Am The Greatest" album but not the Cassius Clay one. Once upon a time those LP's were next to each other on the wall at In Your Ear Records.
	👻 5:07pm John L: What a great interview! I just started "There And Black Again" by Don Letts; it might be a good choice for a future show.
	5:07pm clarke: now called In Your Rear Records due to pricing!
	5:07pm REDSPIDER: This entire show is great...Thanks, Todd!
	5:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Declarative like Ginsberg's 'Howl' & that sort...
	5:13pm clarke: such a tight drum track!
	5:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& easy to miss how good & precise a Writer that Ian Curtis from Manchester was - until you see it written down...
	5:14pm clarke: and bass. and guitar.
	5:18pm listener 126464: Uncle Floyd Show tapes on Tuesday nights 8 pm est at Stageit.com - $5
	5:20pm REDSPIDER: Slim..Macvootie!
	5:22pm McGroovey: "Can I cut in?" Hilarious. but here's great anyway.
	5:23pm McGroovey: *he's
	5:25pm clarke: sage advice
	5:27pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Great show, Todd!

	3:30pm Becky Ebenkamp: Cool. Thanks.

	3:41pm mariano: Hi TOPT, everyone!
	3:42pm Benoni: Good video for 36 hours. Filmed in Ordsall I think. The Smiths later filmed around there for the Stop me video.
	3:43pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Hey Mariano! Great track too, Benoni...
	3:43pm Becky Ebenkamp: Hi, Mariano!
	3:44pm pL: Rockabilly rap
	3:46pm mariano: Hey, what's up Becky!
	3:47pm Gaylord Fields: JCC is the auspicious result of when you cross Bob Dylan with Mark E Smith and Allen Ginsberg.
	3:48pm Becky Ebenkamp: Just learnin’ about Cuba and havin’ some food…
	3:48pm Becky Ebenkamp: Ha, Gaylord!
	3:49pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Gaylord Fields: JCC actually did a few gigs with Ginsberg.
	3:49pm pL: Bob Dylan is an actual musician
	3:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& a bit of KeefRichards/JohnnyThunders or something but no gittar...
	3:50pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks, Todd! That must have been quite the affair!
	3:51pm Kpx: Didn't he have the nickname of - Woo Woo Allen Ginsberg?
	3:51pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Good afternoon! Checking in from the Jersey Shore today 🌤🌊🌤
	3:51pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Gaylord Fields: As no doubt was the JCC, Slim Gaillard, Gil Scott-Heron triple bill!
	3:51pm Benoni: Another bit of trivia, John Cooper Clarke appeared at the very end of the Dennis and Louis documentary which I think I rented from WFMU!
	3:52pm Becky Ebenkamp: Welcome, Jeff!
	3:52pm Gaylord Fields: @Todd: What the what?! Working on that time machine right now.
	3:53pm Brian in New Orleans: Help! Who is the white hip hop duo out of England that sound just like JCC...
	3:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sleaford Mods ?
	👻 3:54pm John L: Brian: Are you thinking of Sleaford Mods?
	3:56pm Brian in New Orleans!!: Yes...huge fan
	3:56pm Gaylord Fields: @Todd: You, me, and JCC need to watch Svengoolie together.
	3:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: JCC is a MonsterKid !
	👻 3:57pm John L: Tom Tryon later became a writer of Gothic fiction: The Other and Harvest Home. Better writer than actor.
	3:58pm Brian in New Orleans: @ John L @ Rabbit... not sure why Sleaford Mods never blew up...shit is tight and his wordplay is on point
	3:59pm Becky Ebenkamp: ha ha
	3:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mod was an import of Italian styles very early on (sharp kit & scooters) ?...
	4:00pm Anita: So amazing to hear these stories. Thanks!
	4:00pm Brian in New Orleans: But yeah...JCC is new to me ...cant wait for a deep dive...
	4:01pm Gaylord Fields: @Brian: My favorite LP of his is Disguise in Love; I suggest you start there. Ace poetry with slashing punky backing that is the best of both worlds.
	4:02pm Colin in Durham, England: What a tiMe to switch on! Seen JCC 4 times. My favourite performer. Nice one Todd
	4:02pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks Colin!
	4:03pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: I love the way he says "rugged outdoor pursuits". Twice, no less.

	4:07pm Old Dave: Evelyn Waugh did he say? Wow.
	4:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Poe's reviews 'mixed' when he was alive yerknow...
	4:10pm clarke: oi mates!! (no relation)
	4:12pm clarke: hiya chester - good to see you're back! mariano, did i see that you were 'angin' about??
	4:17pm McGroovey: JCC is a guy my dad would have described as being "inoculated with a Victrola needle".
	4:18pm Sissophonic Cheryl: Amazing stuff, boo.
	4:20pm Gaylord Fields: @McGroovey: JCC certainly is a pop culture sponge, a type that rings more than a tiny bit familiar to us here.
	4:22pm clarke: anyone seems fair game to you tonight, Fields!
	4:26pm Gaylord Fields: clarke, I am tasting my favorite new perfume — success! (I bet your namesake JCC can quote Sweet Smell of Success as well as we can.)
	4:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Richard Penniman' still make muh ears stand up straight.
	4:27pm clarke: you're walking around blind - without a cane!
	4:27pm pL: Little Richard is underrated
	4:28pm clarke: i dunno if he is any relation, but the clarke family i am part of hails from the cornwall area
	4:28pm clarke: - came over on the mayflower
	4:29pm Vincemole: JCC is a damn treasure. I remember the first time I heard Suspended Sentence, I was just bowled over that the guy could write something so simultaneously off the charts nihilistic and guffaw inducing. Thanks for having him on Todd, you get the best guests in the biz.
	4:29pm Victrola Tom: Been listening from the pool! The tunes are so hot, I have to stay wet!
	4:30pm pL: Little Richard is underrated
	4:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: JohnnyRotten X Dr.Suess
	4:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Writing & Reading are actually different skills. He got it covered.
	4:31pm Andres: Could we put Twat on a birthday card?
	4:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Reading as in recitation...
	4:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'I Wanna Be Yours' presumably from Dylan's 'I Wanna Be Your Lover' - a riffjam on 'I Wanna Be Your Man' as on Thin Wild Mercury Music boot, or I presume the Bootleg Series somewhere...
	4:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Patti! Der. Lydon / Rotten actually a great lyricist
	4:55pm clarke: those strange vocal overdubs by lou always get my curiosity going.
	4:59pm Dennis Diken: Yay, Johnny Ray!!
	5:00pm clarke: and celeste!!
	5:00pm Andres: Milk sops is my favourite.
	5:01pm McGroovey: Great JCC interview, Todd. Well, he didn't really let you talk much, but he had interesting things to say.

	5:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Cassius produced by SamCooke ?

	👻 5:07pm John L: What a great interview! I just started "There And Black Again" by Don Letts; it might be a good choice for a future show.
	5:07pm clarke: now called In Your Rear Records due to pricing!
	5:07pm REDSPIDER: This entire show is great...Thanks, Todd!
	5:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Declarative like Ginsberg's 'Howl' & that sort...
	5:13pm clarke: such a tight drum track!
	5:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& easy to miss how good & precise a Writer that Ian Curtis from Manchester was - until you see it written down...
	5:14pm clarke: and bass. and guitar.
	5:18pm listener 126464: Uncle Floyd Show tapes on Tuesday nights 8 pm est at Stageit.com - $5
	5:20pm REDSPIDER: Slim..Macvootie!
