WFMU: Old Codger with Courtney T. Edison: Playlist from August 10, 2021

Listener comments!
	8:20pm Lolabelle Pancake: Hello in advance, everybody. Well, not EVERYBODY. That would be a quantitative impossibility. How about, Hello, as many of you as plan to tune in to the Old Codger's Philco Cheap Cigar Boudoir on Tuesday this week? I think that's a more practical welcome.
	8:22pm Lolabelle Pancake: But of course, EVERYBODY is welcome!
	1:48pm rrg: You too, Lolabelle: welcome back from vacation. Your sister Dorabelle did a fine job playlisting last week but it wasn't the same without you. I'm sure you know what I mean.
	2:12pm Dorabelle Pancake: Tahank yOU RGG. Im stilll wait ing to GEt paiD by that skinflint Cortyney fr all The wokrfk I did alst week.
	2:24pm Lolabelle Pancake: There will be some controversy on tonight's program. There have been outraged calls for Gus Bodenheim to resign because of some "inappropriate" gestures on his part. Gus is going to deliver a statement.
	3:00pm G: Anticipating LC's spin on 78s...
	5:46pm G: That's Augustus Bodenheim to us peons.
	7:00pm ultradamno: I heard a rumor Fablio was board opping, are we in danger?
	7:01pm ultradamno: Nice picture of Dorian Gr....oh, that's Gus.
	7:02pm G: Fablio actually likes this musical style.
	7:02pm ultradamno: I would think an appropriate gesture from Gus would raise more eyebrows
	7:03pm dale: herro dere. lolabelle - did you vacation at the spa in the catskills with the badminton court and where the colonics flow like wine?
	7:07pm G: Those 78s shatter pretty good.
	7:07pm ultradamno: Dorabelle did her best, bless her heart.
	7:07pm G: A shetup?
	7:08pm G: If SM Ken was an unreconstructed Stalinist, Codge would be in Siberia long ago.
	7:09pm Laura L: Courtney, she'll be on Tik Tok!
	7:09pm (Murakami Whywolf))): Hairline fractures on his 78s? I'd thought that Mr Edison's hairline was so high by now it was on the floor of the storey above him.
	7:09pm Ken From Hyde Park: Is there a codger-style family picnic planned for this summer? I'd be interested in seeing pictures.
	7:11pm (((Murakami Whywolf): Careful!, Mr Edison: She is winner of several gold medals competing in the Young Codger division.
	7:11pm G: Did the NYS AG just finish a big investigation of Gus's questionable doings?
	7:12pm (Murakami Whywolf))): He likes it when they lose their composure and grab on to his little stick of Blackpool Rock for balance (they claim).
	7:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...woh - heavy topical stuffs ...not the usual escapism into stale musty filth & raw innuendo I'm accustomed to here...
	7:14pm Lolabelle Pancake: The matter involving Gus is being taken very seriously around here. The Old Codger Programming Board held a late-night meeting to discuss these allegations. I'm not at liberty to discuss what happpened at that gathering, but it adjourned around 6am when they ran out of Sly Weasel.
	7:16pm G: This is our risque block.
	7:16pm dale: noel coward must have slayed the ladies, so poetic.
	7:17pm (((Murakami Whywolf): He doesn't mention George Formby by name, but in this essay (on 'naughty' post-cards) Orwell might as well have done: www.orwellfoundation.com...
	7:17pm ultradamno: The refreshment committee should be roundly chastised for allowing that to happen.
	7:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah out of Weasel ? ...well maybe @ least Flip can restore my Spirits with gratuitous exaggerated violence...
	7:19pm G: My home state. They play Beiderbecke on WWOZ all the time.
	7:19pm Lolabelle Pancake: Bix never took a legal drink in his life.
	7:20pm ShelbyG: I could certainly use a restoration of spirits..
	7:20pm (((Murakami Whywolf))): dale: Yes, nearly everywhere he went, Noël had much more willing gals at the ready than he wanted.
	7:21pm G: @Lolabelle: You betcha. Died before Prohibition was repealed! They sell drive-through margaritas here in New Orleans.
	7:22pm ShelbyG: @G: drive thru margaritas 🍸
	7:23pm (Murakami Whywolf))): Jonathan Harker wrote: I had now an opportunity of observing him, and found him of a very marked physiognomy. 'His face was a strong—a very strong—aquiline, with high bridge of the thin nose and peculiarly arched nostrils; with lofty domed forehead, and hair growing scantily round the temples but profusely elsewhere. His eyebrows were very massive, almost meeting over the nose, and with bushy hair that seemed to curl in its own profusion. The mouth, so far as I could see it under the heavy moustache, was fixed and rather cruel-looking, with peculiarly sharp white teeth; these protruded over the lips, whose remarkable ruddiness showed astonishing vitality in a man of his years. For the rest, his ears were pale, and at the tops extremely pointed; the chin was broad and strong, and the cheeks firm though thin.' Coïncidence? I think not.
	7:23pm G: @Shelby: Seriously. No joke. They have to sell them with a lid on is all lol
	7:24pm Gus: I grew up in a different age (of 78s) when things were different
	7:24pm ultradamno: Gus and touching shouldn't be in the same sentence
	7:24pm (((Murakami Whywolf): I remember when David Letterman drove a moped through a wall of margaritas….
	7:24pm melinda: floozies!
	7:25pm ultradamno: So hussies and heifers are still on the table?
	7:25pm Euneeda S. Bodenheim: Gus does not speak for me!
	7:25pm ShelbyG: Bwah Hahahahahaaaaa 😂
	7:26pm G: Gus doesn't look nearly as mean as Andrew. -- And I have a feeling this segment was produced before Andrew resigned today!
	7:26pm dale: gus for governor in 2022!
	7:26pm ultradamno: That will absolutely satisfy twitter.
	7:26pm Seedy: Gus is one sick mfer!
	7:28pm Lolabelle Pancake: Gus left out "slattern."
	7:28pm (Murakami Whywolf))): Euneeda S. Bodenheim: What _does_ Gus do for you?
	7:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Apologies of the Week' - a regular feature on Harry Shearer's 'Le Show' ...there is the 'Ifpology' : 'IF I have offended anyone'...
	7:30pm Euneeda S. Bodenheim: Murakami, he used to steal my dolls and stage frightening tableaus with them. Now he's mostly a begrudging big brother with little to say. But he did get me a gig on this show.
	7:32pm Lolabelle Pancake: Gus has a cultivated sense of the macabre.
	7:32pm ultradamno: Well, sometimes "the less said the better" and Gus' "apology" certainly proved that.
	7:35pm G: Los Cuatro Huasos means more or less The Four Gauchos
	7:35pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: So good to be back and listening to this show! I was gone for a few weeks, hitting the rails on Amtrak to visit family in Austin and Indianapolis. Only really listened to a few Wake and Bake episodes and otherwise tuned into the local radio stations. Found some cool stuff! But what a pleasure it is to be back with the Old Codger! Missed the first half of the show because of Jeopardy though.
	7:37pm Lolabelle Pancake: Are you in jeopardy, Rosey? You can contact our lawyer, Bud Wifflebat. He's not a good attorney, but he's cheap.
	7:38pm rrg: Rosey, you should record Jeopardy to watch later, and listen to Courtney when he's on.
	7:38pm G: Codger won a whole straight week of Jeopardy in 1947. Radio version.
	7:44pm ultradamno: Gus isn't teaching at the broadcast academy, is he?
	7:45pm dale: lolabelle - ha ha! that was funny. joe e. brown funny.
	7:46pm Franco Twinkie: One look at the front page of The Los Angeles times just now, and I come running to The Old Codger. Why can't this trouble world just sit down and listen to Baby's Sweetheart? Things would improve straight away sure as shootin'!
	7:47pm ultradamno: Add another G and you'll probably have problems with T-Mobile
	7:47pm ShelbyG: Oh. Hector Nembutal. What a shame 🤦🏻‍♀️
	7:48pm ultradamno: Wasn't this the episode the station also banned?
	7:49pm Franco Twinkie: Hi Shelby, I just got up from my nap, and I'm feeling a little disoriented.
	7:51pm ShelbyG: Hi Twinkie, this won’t help. Hi 👋🏼
	7:52pm ShelbyG: Naps most often make me feel disoriented.
	7:53pm ShelbyG: Is this from a cartoon? Probably a dumb question.
	7:53pm Lolabelle Pancake: No, Shelby. It is a soundtrack from a Major Motion Picture.
	7:54pm ShelbyG: Thank you, Lolabelle.
	7:55pm dale: thank the stars that we have eradicated the yellow menace with physical slapstick comedy.
	7:55pm Franco Twinkie: Oh contraire Shelby! I'm regaining my balance and drinking coffee. I'll be breaking dishes over my head in a jiff.
	7:56pm ShelbyG: Me too, Franco ♥️
	7:56pm ShelbyG: Haha Dale!
	7:58pm G: Good closing number
	7:58pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks Courtney. I'm going back to bed.
	7:59pm G: Ken, always demanding favors lol
	7:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: TY again Codger !
