	3:19pm nic: crazy cool!!!
	3:19pm The Oscar: Afternoon! I was in the other room when this Cromagon came on and thought "Oh, I know this song!" like it was a Creedence album cut or something.
	3:20pm wfmu listener phillip: Well that sounds like what I'm going thru right now.
	3:20pm Mandy: every time I recommend WFMU to somebody, for some reason they always tune in during Fabio's show and hear something like this. LOL I'm love this show and I love variety but some people get a whole new perspective of me!
	3:21pm Juli: This song is v pretty

	3:23pm Juli: Yas yasss yaaassssss lol this song I feel like I should just slowly give yesssss yessssss yaaasssss to lol
	3:24pm Juli: Okee me go now
	3:24pm sasha40585: When I drop off my sister at swim practice wfmu cuts out into some sports radio station when we get to the pool the effect always sounds like it is intentionally part of the broadcast
	3:24pm Juli: Byeeeee I'll brb I am sure lol
	👻 3:25pm chresti: Haha Mandy
	3:25pm βrian: Just bagged up 8 quarts of blueberries. The coming winter looks less forbidding now.
	3:26pm Juli: Lols Sasha Yum blueberries
	👻 3:26pm chresti: Mmmmmmm blueberries
	👻 3:28pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ...............LATE! EGAD, missed th'CAT MOTEL! must punch self with hysterical efficiency....... INNAFACE!
	3:31pm Miss G: Rev. Turnip Druid, you must play that 100 X in a row after the show, sorry, it's out of my hands.
	👻 3:32pm Rev. Turnip Druid: it shall be done!
	👻 3:32pm chresti: I wish I’d brought my earbuds, they’re doing demolition/construction on the other side of the wall
	3:32pm Chris from DC: Oh no, I have also missed BCM. That is unfortunate.
	👻 3:33pm chresti: Play some more screaming, I’ll turn it up
	3:33pm Miss G: oh chresti, sorry for that situation.
	3:34pm The Oscar: Ha-- thanks for the shout! I remember reading rumors that Cromagnon was an early iteration of the Residents. They weren't, but that album still rips.
	3:35pm Megadano: Is this Creedence? I LOVE Creedence!
	👻 3:36pm chresti: Thanks Miss G, Gentrification on steroids in Atwater Village, I’m moving out after 23 years here
	3:36pm Tony: If those young people don't know Creedence, maybe they can check out one of their "vinyls."
	3:36pm Handy Haversack: You're moving, chresti? That's big news! Where to?
	👻 3:39pm chresti: Hi Handy, moving stuff out of my studio, was given the boot
	3:41pm Mister Dobalina: Thank goodness, RareFilmm, Cinephobe, ExpTV & CathodeTV are all up and running. Cutting the cord has never felt so good!
	3:41pm Handy Haversack: Argh, that sucks, chresti. Sorry to hear it.
	3:41pm sasha40585: mister dobalina Mr bob dobalina
	👻 3:43pm Rev. Turnip Druid: That Baker/Hecker piece was quite a thing.
	3:43pm Carmichael: What will you do with your stuff, chresti?
	👻 3:43pm chresti: Thanks Handy! I knew it was coming sooner than later, the heirs to the original kindly landlord sold the building, etc
	3:44pm Brendan: Sounds like a one string guitar solo that lasts the entire song. I’m in!
	👻 3:47pm chresti: Hi Carmichael, for now, until a new space closer to home turns up, (perhaps IN the home, Franco?) its all going to a 10x30 storage space in Alhambra
	3:47pm Brendan: B string I’d say
	3:48pm Mister Dobalina: @sasha.. good to know people still recognize.
	👻 3:49pm chresti: I’m impressed you know your Bs and Es, Brendan
	3:53pm Alvy Singer: The Starving Weirdos drift along like a dense patch of heavy coastal fog.
	3:54pm Brendan: @chresti, Not so much. I happen to be stopped in traffic waiting for a flagman, so I turned on my guitar tuna app and every so often it would flash B. I don’t know if it was one string, but it sound like he was doing a drone with the open string and doing a bunch of pull offs and hammer ons and octaves. Pretty amazing piece.
	👻 4:01pm winston legthigh: sorry for your troubles chresti. i did learn alot about california today though. for instance there is a giant stinky lake in the south east corner according to carmichael's map.
	4:06pm FattyZeppoli: Freak Orlando
	👻 4:07pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: on darkness...finished Twin Peaks Season 3 last night (4 years late to the party) and the final scene is up there with among the darkest and most harrowing ive seen in a tv show / film. still thinking about it
	4:08pm Carmichael: Shut Up Starving Weirdos.
	4:08pm βrian: Hmm, I've already forgotten it. Trying to remember ...
	4:11pm The Oscar: @BBQJA I just finished my second run through of TP3 a few months ago, and we're thinking of starting it up again. I'm still in shock at how good it is--what a miracle that it exists at all.
	4:14pm Another Patrick from Hoboken: @Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: I watched the entire series during the pandemic. It was indeed dark but with time the shock of the final scene recedes and gives way to reflection on the splendor of the entire season - were they trapped in an alternate timeline, was Laura's mother somehow trapped in the house by a spell and able to escape in that last moment?
	4:15pm Carmichael: I believe the map is referring to the Salton Sea, Winston.
	4:15pm Another Patrick from Hoboken: Thanks to @hobokenjack for turning me onto the whole Twin Peaks world
	👻 4:15pm chresti: Thanks winston, The Salton Sea? That’s a smelly pit, went there once on the way to Mexico. There were dead fish all over the place and it was about 100 degrees out there.
	4:18pm βrian: Ag run-off makes lakes no fun.
	4:18pm slugluv1313: greetings, Fabio! Failures! these tunes/vibes ARE giving me strength (vacuuming & other mind numbing chores -- on this insanely humid afternoon! & cannot have AC on 😵) -- so grateful for the soundtrack 😺😺
	👻 4:19pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @anotherpatrick my feeling with TP and a lot of David Lynch is that there is a story and we should absolutely not try very hard to figure it out, because we already know what it is on a gut-level, not an intellectual level. you can feel the weight of that show and what's happening, you don't need to have everything actually explained and i think that is why david lynch is so adamant about never explaining his work. you know what the story is in your gut, not your head and that's why it's so powerful
	👻 4:19pm Ken From Hyde Park: I read in the news that some industries plan to set up lithium mines in the Salton Sea area. Batteries of the future are going to smell bad, I guess?
	4:19pm Handy Haversack: Well said, BB QB JA.
	4:21pm slugluv1313: @chresti -- ugh that so totally SUCKS!!! i am so sorry to hear this especially after all those years (no laws to protect longtime residents?!?)
	👻 4:23pm Bas NL: Hi Fabio! Gang of Strength!
	👻 4:24pm winston legthigh: twin peaks is david lynch? ty for that bbqja, mulholland drive is one of my faves. will check it out.
	👻 4:26pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: i always knew the "mulholland drive was a tv pilot-converted to a movie" story but i found out today that it was actually conceived a pilot for a show about (twin peaks character) audrey horne. not sure how that would've worked as sheri fenn isn't in the movie at all, but alas
	4:28pm βrian: Synecdochically speaking ...
	👻 4:29pm Rev. Turnip Druid: this thing. This Arn thing.
	👻 4:31pm chresti: Hi slugluv! It’s a workspace, no live ins, in a building that originally was a theatre, so no rent laws for commercial/industrial zones. A lot of long-time businesses have been pushed out of this area because owners decide to jack up the rents
	4:32pm Carmichael: Don't ever try to figure out what David Lynch is trying to say. Sometimes he doesn't even know.
	👻 4:37pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @carmichael that's the thing, i really think he does!!! i get the sense that he creates a fully fleshed out story but only chooses to put about 2/3 of that into the script, leaving those gaps that keep us from ever really knowing what the truth is
	👻 4:37pm chresti: Salton Sea: failure of a man-made lake
	👻 4:40pm Jason from Houston: That's a bummer to learn, chresti. It's hard to go through a move but just as hard to feel the pinch of developers and money.
	4:40pm nick: Fabio tackling the Greek pronunciation like a champ
	👻 4:41pm Jason from Houston: Sorry: pinch = squash
	4:41pm Krys O: I own a copy of Sheila Levine that I purchased on YouTube years ago. I think that is Warner....
	4:42pm Miss G: Sheila Levine is Dead and Living in NY, ah, Jeannie Berlin was in a great cameo in my viewing of "Inherent Vice" last night. She is a gifted lady.
	👻 4:43pm chresti: Thank Jason! I just wish I didn’t have to do this in the middle of July.
	4:43pm The Oscar: I got the new Fellini box set for Christmas, and it was a huge help getting through the last leg of the pandemic.
	4:44pm bloumejune: Blue Collar was very good! And 8 1/2 was a lot of fun too. (Saw 6 movies at the FF last week)
	👻 4:44pm chresti: The seedy player
	4:45pm Miss G: Good for you bloumejune! I had plans to see "Summer of Soul" in the theater, til this infection put the kibosh on it.
	👻 4:45pm chresti: Yay Mitchell Brown!
	4:47pm Another Patrick from Hoboken: @Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: agreed, that's a wonderful description! I also got into the various Twin peaks podcasts during the pandemic. It turns out there is a an alternative pilot for Season 1 out there which neatly ties everything up, made for the European market. luckily it wasn't widely shown, and I am glad that he has been able to create this world which is full of mystery and not easily explained.
	4:48pm Krys O: I watched Fellini's Roma on the 4th of July. Had DVRd it from TCM. I probably saw it at Film Forum 25-30 years ago.
	4:48pm bloumejune: @MissG I hope you feel better soon. Summer colds are tough..any cold is tough.
	4:48pm JohnEBGood: I am submitting to Total Failure!
	4:48pm slugluv1313: @chresti -- ugh, so awful -- and those long time businesses probably helped establish and sustain the area? gentrification sucks, no matter where or how it happens
	👻 4:49pm winston legthigh: time to pack it in, thanks fabio and all.
	4:50pm Miss G: Merci bloumejune!
	4:54pm recyclage: cheerse fabioand listeners
	4:54pm Brendan: Nice, this.
	👻 4:54pm chresti: slug, exactly. There was a woman a couple doors up that had a shoe repair/dry cleaning business for 40 years that was told she had to pay $4000 a month, so now where her place was has been broken up into 3 or 4 new shops
	4:55pm Handy Haversack: A ton of that here, too, chresti, with storefronts that have had the rent jacked way up sitting empty or finally reopening as national bank or drugstore chains. Or got help us another boutique hotel.
	4:55pm Brendan: Divide and conquer. Money grubbing Basturds.
	👻 4:56pm chresti: And a former coffin store is now a lively food joint where Franco spotted Gweneth Paltrow eating, like 5 years ago.
	4:58pm Miss G: I guess just for completeness' sake I should mention the great book by Jeremiah Moss, "Vanishing New York" which shows how it was not "just something that happened" as many would have you believe. On Mark Hurst's show: https://www.wfmu.org/playlists/shows/87938
	4:58pm Miss G: chresti I'm so sad you're losing your studio. A friend in Brooklyn is still searching and it's hell.
	5:00pm The Oscar: Whoa-- was that the CB sample from Negativland's U2?
	5:06pm freaknhell: must be the server farms.
	5:10pm Krys O: So sorry, chresti. Gentrification sucks.
	👻 5:13pm chresti: Thanks Krys, fuck gentrification and capitalism
	👻 5:14pm Jason from Houston: Cheers. All the fucks up.
	5:16pm Handy Haversack: Word, chresti.
	5:17pm mischi: i once asked the chimney sweep if he could hear the hum...it was a weird couple of days. i`m certain he thought i was bonkers, i`m pretty sure i managed to record it though...
	👻 5:17pm chresti: To be honest, I hate the new Atwater Village. At least the owners have spared the taco/burrito stand that’s been in the front of the building since before I moved in
	5:18pm Krys O: I think they were 3" and one needed an adapter in some players.
	👻 5:20pm Jason from Houston: Also! Luc Sante's definition of nostalgia as “a state of inarticulate contempt for the present and fear of the future” always just fills me with inarticulate contempt for Luc Sante. LOL
	5:21pm Handy Haversack: Well articulated, Jason!
	5:22pm Miss G: snorted electrolyte water out the nose Jason!
	👻 5:23pm Jason from Houston: Contemptuously yours, Handy!
	👻 5:26pm Jason from Houston: Sorry Miss G!
	5:26pm davefromtoronto: if failure equals strength then call me superman!
	5:27pm slugluv1313: ugh! the Gweneth kiss of death! and like Handy says, horrible here too -- just yesterday saw signs in the window of this beloved shoe repair shop, a Hoboken institution, imho -- and i had heard that the man who ran it was retiring, but did not know that the shop might close -- he came here from Italy with his Dad, in 1968 -- he was only 15, but had been working there ever since, been taking my shoes there for 40 years
	5:28pm Miss G: No need to apologize for causing laughter Jason!
	5:29pm Brendan: The natives sound restless. In fact I think their drummer is on bennies. There’s like a cowbell in the background it’s going like 1 million beats a minute.
	5:33pm Brendan: Fucking awesome Fab
	5:33pm ?: love this!!!
	👻 5:34pm chresti: Haha Jason
	5:37pm Krys O: Wonderful show, Fabio. It fortified me on my commute home through soupy humidity. Take care, all!
	👻 5:38pm Bas NL: I think Strength thought Failure gives rise to this whole cottage industry of music making.
	5:39pm TDK60: Hi Fabio, just in for the last act..
	5:39pm Miss G: Have a less soupy evening Krys O! (am making soup now as it happens.)
	👻 5:40pm Rev. Turnip Druid: big bad meeting. Just now back for this lovely thing. That Menche thing = pre-clicked, wonderful stuff.
	👻 5:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: De defectum, vires (out of failure, strength).
	5:53pm slugluv1313: wonderful show, Fabio (as always!) thanks so much for this exquisite soundtrack to a soupy afternoon 😺😺
	5:53pm Glistener MW: Awesome show, Fabio! Thanks!
	5:54pm Handy Haversack: Hey, I know that song! Thanks, Fabio. Much much to love today. Many thanks. Later on, all. Stay strong and failed.
	👻 5:54pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: thx fabio
	5:54pm Miss G: Ah, it's time already? Thank you Fabio for a fascinating show. Lots to focus on, take the mind away from endless Quatsch
	5:55pm TDK60: Robert...?
	👻 5:55pm Jason from Houston: Wait... Is this what replaced Love Hangover?!?
	5:56pm slugluv1313: Baby's On Fire INDEED!!! 🔥💜😻
	5:56pm beavo: Robert foguitar
	5:57pm beavo: Fripp
	5:58pm TDK60: Thanks, Ƒabio!
	👻 5:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid: never noticed before the very dieter moebius-flavored grumbling noises under that guitar passage
	5:58pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Very nice thank you
	👻 5:58pm chresti: Fabio! perfecto!
	5:59pm Brendan: Thanks Fabio. This show is always entertaining, enlightening and inspiring.
	👻 5:59pm Jason from Houston: Fine sounds today. Thank you!
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...only on time for FREEEP...
	5:59pm ?: Bonsoir. All you pains. Beautiful 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
	6:00pm Todd76Pct: Thanks for all of the sonics today!
	👻 6:00pm Bas NL: Thanks Fabio!
	8:56am Stelis: Why by hearing this show, I always want yo fail? Thanks once again Fabio!

	3:24pm Juli: Okee me go now
	3:24pm sasha40585: When I drop off my sister at swim practice wfmu cuts out into some sports radio station when we get to the pool the effect always sounds like it is intentionally part of the broadcast
	3:24pm Juli: Byeeeee I'll brb I am sure lol
	👻 3:25pm chresti: Haha Mandy
	3:25pm βrian: Just bagged up 8 quarts of blueberries. The coming winter looks less forbidding now.
	3:26pm Juli: Lols Sasha Yum blueberries
	👻 3:26pm chresti: Mmmmmmm blueberries
	👻 3:28pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ...............LATE! EGAD, missed th'CAT MOTEL! must punch self with hysterical efficiency....... INNAFACE!
	3:31pm Miss G: Rev. Turnip Druid, you must play that 100 X in a row after the show, sorry, it's out of my hands.
	👻 3:32pm Rev. Turnip Druid: it shall be done!
	👻 3:32pm chresti: I wish I’d brought my earbuds, they’re doing demolition/construction on the other side of the wall
	3:32pm Chris from DC: Oh no, I have also missed BCM. That is unfortunate.
	👻 3:33pm chresti: Play some more screaming, I’ll turn it up
	3:33pm Miss G: oh chresti, sorry for that situation.
	3:34pm The Oscar: Ha-- thanks for the shout! I remember reading rumors that Cromagnon was an early iteration of the Residents. They weren't, but that album still rips.
	3:35pm Megadano: Is this Creedence? I LOVE Creedence!
	👻 3:36pm chresti: Thanks Miss G, Gentrification on steroids in Atwater Village, I’m moving out after 23 years here
	3:36pm Tony: If those young people don't know Creedence, maybe they can check out one of their "vinyls."
	3:36pm Handy Haversack: You're moving, chresti? That's big news! Where to?
	👻 3:39pm chresti: Hi Handy, moving stuff out of my studio, was given the boot
	3:41pm Mister Dobalina: Thank goodness, RareFilmm, Cinephobe, ExpTV & CathodeTV are all up and running. Cutting the cord has never felt so good!
	3:41pm Handy Haversack: Argh, that sucks, chresti. Sorry to hear it.
	3:41pm sasha40585: mister dobalina Mr bob dobalina
	👻 3:43pm Rev. Turnip Druid: That Baker/Hecker piece was quite a thing.
	3:43pm Carmichael: What will you do with your stuff, chresti?
	👻 3:43pm chresti: Thanks Handy! I knew it was coming sooner than later, the heirs to the original kindly landlord sold the building, etc
	3:44pm Brendan: Sounds like a one string guitar solo that lasts the entire song. I’m in!
	👻 3:47pm chresti: Hi Carmichael, for now, until a new space closer to home turns up, (perhaps IN the home, Franco?) its all going to a 10x30 storage space in Alhambra
	3:47pm Brendan: B string I’d say
	3:48pm Mister Dobalina: @sasha.. good to know people still recognize.
	👻 3:49pm chresti: I’m impressed you know your Bs and Es, Brendan
	3:53pm Alvy Singer: The Starving Weirdos drift along like a dense patch of heavy coastal fog.
	3:54pm Brendan: @chresti, Not so much. I happen to be stopped in traffic waiting for a flagman, so I turned on my guitar tuna app and every so often it would flash B. I don’t know if it was one string, but it sound like he was doing a drone with the open string and doing a bunch of pull offs and hammer ons and octaves. Pretty amazing piece.
	👻 4:01pm winston legthigh: sorry for your troubles chresti. i did learn alot about california today though. for instance there is a giant stinky lake in the south east corner according to carmichael's map.
	4:06pm FattyZeppoli: Freak Orlando
	👻 4:07pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: on darkness...finished Twin Peaks Season 3 last night (4 years late to the party) and the final scene is up there with among the darkest and most harrowing ive seen in a tv show / film. still thinking about it
	4:08pm Carmichael: Shut Up Starving Weirdos.
	4:08pm βrian: Hmm, I've already forgotten it. Trying to remember ...
	4:11pm The Oscar: @BBQJA I just finished my second run through of TP3 a few months ago, and we're thinking of starting it up again. I'm still in shock at how good it is--what a miracle that it exists at all.
	4:14pm Another Patrick from Hoboken: @Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: I watched the entire series during the pandemic. It was indeed dark but with time the shock of the final scene recedes and gives way to reflection on the splendor of the entire season - were they trapped in an alternate timeline, was Laura's mother somehow trapped in the house by a spell and able to escape in that last moment?
	4:15pm Carmichael: I believe the map is referring to the Salton Sea, Winston.
	4:15pm Another Patrick from Hoboken: Thanks to @hobokenjack for turning me onto the whole Twin Peaks world
	👻 4:15pm chresti: Thanks winston, The Salton Sea? That’s a smelly pit, went there once on the way to Mexico. There were dead fish all over the place and it was about 100 degrees out there.
	4:18pm βrian: Ag run-off makes lakes no fun.
	4:18pm slugluv1313: greetings, Fabio! Failures! these tunes/vibes ARE giving me strength (vacuuming & other mind numbing chores -- on this insanely humid afternoon! & cannot have AC on 😵) -- so grateful for the soundtrack 😺😺
	👻 4:19pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @anotherpatrick my feeling with TP and a lot of David Lynch is that there is a story and we should absolutely not try very hard to figure it out, because we already know what it is on a gut-level, not an intellectual level. you can feel the weight of that show and what's happening, you don't need to have everything actually explained and i think that is why david lynch is so adamant about never explaining his work. you know what the story is in your gut, not your head and that's why it's so powerful
	👻 4:19pm Ken From Hyde Park: I read in the news that some industries plan to set up lithium mines in the Salton Sea area. Batteries of the future are going to smell bad, I guess?
	4:19pm Handy Haversack: Well said, BB QB JA.
	4:21pm slugluv1313: @chresti -- ugh that so totally SUCKS!!! i am so sorry to hear this especially after all those years (no laws to protect longtime residents?!?)
	👻 4:23pm Bas NL: Hi Fabio! Gang of Strength!
	👻 4:24pm winston legthigh: twin peaks is david lynch? ty for that bbqja, mulholland drive is one of my faves. will check it out.
	👻 4:26pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: i always knew the "mulholland drive was a tv pilot-converted to a movie" story but i found out today that it was actually conceived a pilot for a show about (twin peaks character) audrey horne. not sure how that would've worked as sheri fenn isn't in the movie at all, but alas
	4:28pm βrian: Synecdochically speaking ...
	👻 4:29pm Rev. Turnip Druid: this thing. This Arn thing.
	👻 4:31pm chresti: Hi slugluv! It’s a workspace, no live ins, in a building that originally was a theatre, so no rent laws for commercial/industrial zones. A lot of long-time businesses have been pushed out of this area because owners decide to jack up the rents
	4:32pm Carmichael: Don't ever try to figure out what David Lynch is trying to say. Sometimes he doesn't even know.
	👻 4:37pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: @carmichael that's the thing, i really think he does!!! i get the sense that he creates a fully fleshed out story but only chooses to put about 2/3 of that into the script, leaving those gaps that keep us from ever really knowing what the truth is
	👻 4:37pm chresti: Salton Sea: failure of a man-made lake
	👻 4:40pm Jason from Houston: That's a bummer to learn, chresti. It's hard to go through a move but just as hard to feel the pinch of developers and money.
	4:40pm nick: Fabio tackling the Greek pronunciation like a champ
	👻 4:41pm Jason from Houston: Sorry: pinch = squash
	4:41pm Krys O: I own a copy of Sheila Levine that I purchased on YouTube years ago. I think that is Warner....
	4:42pm Miss G: Sheila Levine is Dead and Living in NY, ah, Jeannie Berlin was in a great cameo in my viewing of "Inherent Vice" last night. She is a gifted lady.
	👻 4:43pm chresti: Thank Jason! I just wish I didn’t have to do this in the middle of July.
	4:43pm The Oscar: I got the new Fellini box set for Christmas, and it was a huge help getting through the last leg of the pandemic.
	4:44pm bloumejune: Blue Collar was very good! And 8 1/2 was a lot of fun too. (Saw 6 movies at the FF last week)
	👻 4:44pm chresti: The seedy player
	4:45pm Miss G: Good for you bloumejune! I had plans to see "Summer of Soul" in the theater, til this infection put the kibosh on it.
	👻 4:45pm chresti: Yay Mitchell Brown!
	4:47pm Another Patrick from Hoboken: @Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: agreed, that's a wonderful description! I also got into the various Twin peaks podcasts during the pandemic. It turns out there is a an alternative pilot for Season 1 out there which neatly ties everything up, made for the European market. luckily it wasn't widely shown, and I am glad that he has been able to create this world which is full of mystery and not easily explained.
	4:48pm Krys O: I watched Fellini's Roma on the 4th of July. Had DVRd it from TCM. I probably saw it at Film Forum 25-30 years ago.
	4:48pm bloumejune: @MissG I hope you feel better soon. Summer colds are tough..any cold is tough.
	4:48pm JohnEBGood: I am submitting to Total Failure!
	4:48pm slugluv1313: @chresti -- ugh, so awful -- and those long time businesses probably helped establish and sustain the area? gentrification sucks, no matter where or how it happens
	👻 4:49pm winston legthigh: time to pack it in, thanks fabio and all.
	4:50pm Miss G: Merci bloumejune!
	4:54pm recyclage: cheerse fabioand listeners
	4:54pm Brendan: Nice, this.
	👻 4:54pm chresti: slug, exactly. There was a woman a couple doors up that had a shoe repair/dry cleaning business for 40 years that was told she had to pay $4000 a month, so now where her place was has been broken up into 3 or 4 new shops
	4:55pm Handy Haversack: A ton of that here, too, chresti, with storefronts that have had the rent jacked way up sitting empty or finally reopening as national bank or drugstore chains. Or got help us another boutique hotel.
	4:55pm Brendan: Divide and conquer. Money grubbing Basturds.
	👻 4:56pm chresti: And a former coffin store is now a lively food joint where Franco spotted Gweneth Paltrow eating, like 5 years ago.
	4:58pm Miss G: I guess just for completeness' sake I should mention the great book by Jeremiah Moss, "Vanishing New York" which shows how it was not "just something that happened" as many would have you believe. On Mark Hurst's show: https://www.wfmu.org/playlists/shows/87938
	4:58pm Miss G: chresti I'm so sad you're losing your studio. A friend in Brooklyn is still searching and it's hell.
	5:00pm The Oscar: Whoa-- was that the CB sample from Negativland's U2?
	5:06pm freaknhell: must be the server farms.
	5:10pm Krys O: So sorry, chresti. Gentrification sucks.
	👻 5:13pm chresti: Thanks Krys, fuck gentrification and capitalism
	👻 5:14pm Jason from Houston: Cheers. All the fucks up.
	5:16pm Handy Haversack: Word, chresti.
	5:17pm mischi: i once asked the chimney sweep if he could hear the hum...it was a weird couple of days. i`m certain he thought i was bonkers, i`m pretty sure i managed to record it though...
	👻 5:17pm chresti: To be honest, I hate the new Atwater Village. At least the owners have spared the taco/burrito stand that’s been in the front of the building since before I moved in
	5:18pm Krys O: I think they were 3" and one needed an adapter in some players.
	👻 5:20pm Jason from Houston: Also! Luc Sante's definition of nostalgia as “a state of inarticulate contempt for the present and fear of the future” always just fills me with inarticulate contempt for Luc Sante. LOL
	5:21pm Handy Haversack: Well articulated, Jason!
	5:22pm Miss G: snorted electrolyte water out the nose Jason!
	👻 5:23pm Jason from Houston: Contemptuously yours, Handy!
	👻 5:26pm Jason from Houston: Sorry Miss G!
	5:26pm davefromtoronto: if failure equals strength then call me superman!
	5:27pm slugluv1313: ugh! the Gweneth kiss of death! and like Handy says, horrible here too -- just yesterday saw signs in the window of this beloved shoe repair shop, a Hoboken institution, imho -- and i had heard that the man who ran it was retiring, but did not know that the shop might close -- he came here from Italy with his Dad, in 1968 -- he was only 15, but had been working there ever since, been taking my shoes there for 40 years
	5:28pm Miss G: No need to apologize for causing laughter Jason!
	5:29pm Brendan: The natives sound restless. In fact I think their drummer is on bennies. There’s like a cowbell in the background it’s going like 1 million beats a minute.
	5:33pm Brendan: Fucking awesome Fab
	5:33pm ?: love this!!!
	👻 5:34pm chresti: Haha Jason
	5:37pm Krys O: Wonderful show, Fabio. It fortified me on my commute home through soupy humidity. Take care, all!
	👻 5:38pm Bas NL: I think Strength thought Failure gives rise to this whole cottage industry of music making.
	5:39pm TDK60: Hi Fabio, just in for the last act..
	5:39pm Miss G: Have a less soupy evening Krys O! (am making soup now as it happens.)
	👻 5:40pm Rev. Turnip Druid: big bad meeting. Just now back for this lovely thing. That Menche thing = pre-clicked, wonderful stuff.
	👻 5:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: De defectum, vires (out of failure, strength).
	5:53pm slugluv1313: wonderful show, Fabio (as always!) thanks so much for this exquisite soundtrack to a soupy afternoon 😺😺
	5:53pm Glistener MW: Awesome show, Fabio! Thanks!
	5:54pm Handy Haversack: Hey, I know that song! Thanks, Fabio. Much much to love today. Many thanks. Later on, all. Stay strong and failed.
	👻 5:54pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: thx fabio
	5:54pm Miss G: Ah, it's time already? Thank you Fabio for a fascinating show. Lots to focus on, take the mind away from endless Quatsch
	5:55pm TDK60: Robert...?
	👻 5:55pm Jason from Houston: Wait... Is this what replaced Love Hangover?!?
	5:56pm slugluv1313: Baby's On Fire INDEED!!! 🔥💜😻
	5:56pm beavo: Robert foguitar
	5:57pm beavo: Fripp
	5:58pm TDK60: Thanks, Ƒabio!
	👻 5:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid: never noticed before the very dieter moebius-flavored grumbling noises under that guitar passage
	5:58pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Very nice thank you
	👻 5:58pm chresti: Fabio! perfecto!
	5:59pm Brendan: Thanks Fabio. This show is always entertaining, enlightening and inspiring.
	👻 5:59pm Jason from Houston: Fine sounds today. Thank you!
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...only on time for FREEEP...
	5:59pm ?: Bonsoir. All you pains. Beautiful 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
	6:00pm Todd76Pct: Thanks for all of the sonics today!
	👻 6:00pm Bas NL: Thanks Fabio!
	8:56am Stelis: Why by hearing this show, I always want yo fail? Thanks once again Fabio!
