	3:27pm Dayffid: Hi Sheila and sophisticates!
	3:28pm Rick A: Hello Sheila, I hope you are having a great Friday. Our cat Dougal lost his spirited and defiant battle against cancer and heart disease last week. He was a great friend to me for twelve years and to my wife for fourteen. He was one of the most extroverted and engaging cats I ever knew.
	3:29pm -o-l-i-v-i-e-r-: @djsheilab It's actually very good, everyone should watch it. But it's also utterly depressing.
	3:29pm winston legthigh: sorry for your loss rick a.
	3:29pm Michael 98145: sweet
	3:29pm Jett: I missed you, welcome back. I hope it was a productive week @DjSheilaB ❤️ Great to be hearing you!
	3:30pm listener james from westwood: @Rick A.: Oh, goodness, I'm so sorry.
	3:30pm Michael 98145: sorry to hear that, @Rick A
	3:31pm DjLorraine: Lovely story Sheila
	3:31pm modern blaze: me too. about the garbage...
	3:31pm dreamyandseedy: new bedouine is so exciting! love that album cover
	3:32pm P-90: Those “talking to myself on the taxi ride home” moments…
	3:32pm Rick G: Best wishes to you and your wife, @Rick A
	3:32pm chresti: Sheilab, vitamin C and maybe niacin helps mellow the harsh.
	3:32pm Michael 98145: hydrate
	3:33pm modern blaze: Hydrate also
	3:33pm Joey!!: Rick A.....so sorry to hear.
	3:34pm Gurldoggie: Very glad you’re back Sheila! And I wouldn’t be too embarrassed. I’ll bet most of those WFMU stoners were more wasted then you were, they didn’t notice a thing.
	3:34pm HyperDose: Right there with you, Rick A. Said goodbye to my best friend of 10yrs on Tuesday. Bet you a beer our fur babies became fast friends while crossing the rainbow bridge together. My sincerest condolences to you and your family. 🍻❤️
	3:35pm yippie: i like the dolby 6.9 upmixes of monos
	3:35pm chresti: I like to keep emegen-C packets in my bag and add to water, good for hydrating too!
	3:35pm Dayffid: Sheila - Really love that Bedouine track. Have you played it on here before? It feels like I have heard it before.
	3:36pm Jett: You never need to wallow in shame, don't you realize that you are the brilliant @DjSheilaB ?
	3:37pm djsheilab: Awwww Rick A, I'm sending much love to you during this time. Losing a beloved kitty hurts so much :(
	3:37pm Rick A: Thank you, everyone, WFMU, especially Sheila's show, is a space of empathy and support for those of us who love our four-legged friends. That is a sweet sentiment, HyperDose, thank you. Dougal's feline friend of thirteen years, Junior, seems okay though a little confused that his housemate has disappeared.
	3:38pm Rick A: My condolences to you too, HyperDose, I hope you can find some peace in the special times you shared with your furry friend.
	3:39pm djsheilab: Jett—Shame is my middle name!
	3:39pm djsheilab: Hey Dayffid—It's my first time playing the new Bedouine.
	3:39pm Jett: Also, I hope my buddy Alvy Singer continues to be doing okay.😉 @DjSheilaB
	3:40pm djsheilab: Hey Gurldoggie, yippie + Rick G!
	3:40pm Rick A: Thank you, Sheila, I hope Alvy is okay; I love that name, by the way.
	3:40pm Michael 98145: shame is a sign of a good heart, IMHO
	3:41pm Jett: Hope things are well by you! @DjLorraine
	3:41pm DjLorraine: Hyperdose & Rick A. We are saddened by your loss but inspired by your love
	3:42pm Rick A: Incidentally, I saw the Epstein documentary. It is cogent and compelling though, yes, dispiriting, how this guy was able to manipulate so many powerful people. It's an American nightmare story.
	3:42pm djsheilab: I'm happy to report that Alvy is back in tip-top shape. He had a rough year but made it through :) Thanks for asking Rick A + Jett!
	3:42pm syddog: this is going really well with the rain outside
	3:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yay healthy DJ kitty.
	3:44pm Michael 98145: @chresti, we are fans of Emergen-C®
	3:44pm Rick A: Thank you, Lorraine, those our kind words and happy to hear that Alvy is doing well.
	3:45pm Michael 98145: enjoying your selections again today
	3:46pm djsheilab: Thank you, Michael 98145 :)
	3:47pm chresti: Michael, yes! I often give a dehydrated tennis patron a packet, great for hangovers too.
	3:47pm HyperDose: Thank you, Rick A. Just as you so eloquently stated, the empathy and support here amongst our fellow animal lovers has been an invaluable comfort. Appreciate that beautiful sentiment, DjLorraine
	3:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm scared of getting a fur friend & having to endure the inevitable loss - one just has to have a heart strong enuff to love. My lease prevents it as it happens... I'm too Scorpio to let go easily, tbh.
	3:47pm ShelbyG: Hi all you boom booms, great music SheilaB ♥️👋🏼
	3:48pm djsheilab: Thanks ShelbyG!
	3:51pm ShelbyG: I love this vibe. Great way to start the weekend 🤗
	3:51pm Passaic River Blues: Heard this recently (Cool Blue Flame archive?); in any event, this song is pure magic.
	3:51pm Bimbus Bambus: Wow, the arpeggiator on this one!
	3:52pm chresti: Is that what it is, Bimbus? Sounds great.
	3:53pm Passaic River Blues: Bappi was on fire at this time. Lahiri + 1982 = Guaranteed Dope
	3:53pm ShelbyG: Rick & HD: saying goodbye to a fur baby is so painful. Sending love 💕
	3:54pm ChukAmok: This song just gets better and better the longer it goes on!
	3:55pm djsheilab: Ooooh! It's always a thrill when a particular record gets y'all going!
	3:55pm Jett: @Rick A I'm very saddened by your loss, but keep in mind that as long as Dougal lives in your heart and memory he is still there with you forever.
	3:56pm Hubig Pie: Thanks for the love-er-ly soundtrack for my fence painting chore
	3:56pm chresti: It totally is, sheilab!
	3:56pm Michael 98145: these arrangements are so much fun
	3:56pm ShelbyG: After losing our golden retriever, Leo, I couldn’t imagine getting attached to another dog. We got Pongo & I was a nervous wreck for months that something would happen. But, I found my soul mate in this boy. I will take the risk for the beautiful co-pilot I have with my ride or die buddy!
	3:57pm ShelbyG: it does scare me
	3:57pm βrian: @Hubig Pie: I hope the paint color is saffron.
	3:57pm Jett: I think to most of us Soph-Boomers, your whole show get's us going, Sheila.
	3:58pm ShelbyG: @Jett: yes ♥️
	3:58pm Michael 98145: so glad i discovered this station so long ago
	3:59pm Jett: @Shelby G That's the main reason I'll never own another pet. My heart has been broken twice by 2 beloved pets. I can't deal with that kind of heartbreak again.
	4:00pm Will in Norman: I love this
	4:00pm Passaic River Blues: Just started watching "The Americans"--this would have been a perfect soundtrack for any number of scenes! Really lovely.
	4:01pm Philipp: Heeeyheyhey, salut citizens wfmu land! ))) from Saint-Petersburg (Russia), Эдита Пьеха, приятно слышать : )
	4:01pm Michael 98145: ( "Edita Piekha was born Édith-Marie Piecha in Noyelles-sous-Lens, France" )
	4:01pm Vanessa Tara: howdy!!!
	4:02pm Passaic River Blues: @Michael 98145: wow, I bet she has a hell of a life story.
	4:03pm Bimbus Bambus: waka-chicka intensifies
	4:03pm annette: @rick. guaranteed your precious one is still hangin close. our bodies are only vehicles for this earth. the rest of us, our thoughts, nature, feelings just keep floating around, staying in touch. hugs. ..
	4:05pm Rick A: Thank you, Jett, as long as my wife and I have our memories, Dougal will live in them. Shelby, we take the risk of suffering crushing loss each time we bond with a new furry friend. It's one's choice to open oneself up again. Now we are able to channel our sense of loss through Junior, holding him a little more tightly than we did in the past.
	4:05pm P-90: SBB bringin da funk
	4:08pm syddog: listening in western mass :)
	4:08pm syddog: also, how do we get on the newsletter?
	4:08pm HyperDose: Thank you, ShelbyG. Will definitely adopt another cat down the road, less worried about something happening. More about it not feeling the same as with Pepé, but excited at the prospect of being unconditionally loved again. Hope to see you at Marty's party tomorrow night!
	4:08pm chresti: Listening from San Gabriel, CA!
	4:08pm Steak and Ale: Yo Sheila! Love your show! Up here in Nutley NJ!!!

	4:10pm annette: sheila, you dont need my approval. i am amazed how you bring us such a bouquet of precious sounds from the world over. thank you for it all.
	4:11pm Craig: Hi Sheila B and everyone else! Sheila, please remember compassion starts with yourself. I’m guessing that all the other DJ’s were just as stoked to see and be with you.
	4:11pm Will in Norman: another great soviet pop song about winter www.youtube.com... 'summer without you is like winter'
	4:12pm Bimbus Bambus: I believe next Friday is Bandcamp Friday again, so maybe keep stuff in your cart until then!
	4:12pm Jett: ditto what @annette said!
	4:12pm Hector: Greetings from Chiapas, Mexico. Great selection of music!
	4:13pm djsheilab: Hector! Thanks for checking in from Mexico! Exciting!
	4:13pm Michael 98145: uh oh, i don't think a mermaid belongs in a dryer ...
	4:13pm djsheilab: Thank you for your sweet comment, Craig!
	4:13pm Michael 98145: ... or is that a washing machine?
	4:13pm ShelbyG: Listening from Montpelier, Vermont, on this beautiful summer late afternoon.
	4:13pm djsheilab: Barno from Akron! Hello!!!
	4:14pm Jett: Betty Wright was so brilliant. I miss her a lot. She was also a wonderful woman.
	4:14pm Handy Haversack: Hi, Sheila and all the Sophisticated Boom Boomers! Been listening from this woodsy cabin for the last 45 mins., but we're heading out to K8's gig at Arrowood Farms in Accord, NY. If anyone's in that area, come by later!
	4:14pm djsheilab: Steak and Ale in Nutley, NJ! Thanks for checking in and letting me know you're listening!
	4:14pm Rock Ridge Chess Club: Chiming in from Boone, NC where it is crazy hot (for Boone anyway). But that's okay. The heat came in handy while recoating the homeschool blackboard. Peace on all you good people.
	4:15pm Michael 98145: @HH & K8, hope you have a great time!
	4:15pm annette: @ hyper. raised 9 cats last 25 years. down to one babe. as my pals passed on, sent the $$$$ food, litter, vets bills to shelters figuring i could save many more.
	4:15pm djsheilab: Hey popchop in the heart of Philly! Delighted to know you're listening!
	4:15pm Cooh John: Hello my fellow buckeye, Barno.
	4:16pm djsheilab: Hey Vanessa Tara! I presume it is THE Betty Wright.
	4:16pm djsheilab: Thank you annette!
	4:17pm river: havent heard this new peggy seeger, thank you!!
	4:17pm Despeinada from Texas: Hi Sheila! This is GORGEOUS and I just read your email and YES—I’ve gone back to Zumba and it is therapy and ceremony and healing to sweat it out with all the señoras. Yes.
	4:17pm PaulRobeson1920: Peggy Seeger!!
	4:17pm dreamyandseedy: still hoping you can get peggy on the show!
	4:17pm ShelbyG: getting older takes ferocious tenacity & a robust sense of humor
	4:18pm djsheilab: Rock Ridge Chess Club! Thanks for chiming in!
	4:18pm Teresa: Hello everyone and Sheila! I loved the winter ditty, wandering around Williamsburg listening for the next couple hours before my shift starts…noticing all the little happenings as the soundtrack to my life plays LOL
	4:18pm Michael 98145: ( we're all ageing at the same rate _ )
	4:19pm Rob Kopp: I think Peggy Seeger's album is one of the albums of this year I like best.
	4:19pm djsheilab: Despeinada from Texas—Hello lovely!
	4:19pm Carmichael: Sacramento, as always, is in the house. Our Steak & Ale closed about 30 years ago ...
	4:19pm djsheilab: Rob Kopp—Couldn't agree more!
	4:20pm djsheilab: river—my pleasure! I recommend the whole album.
	4:20pm syddog: sheila how do I join the email list !

	4:26pm Andrew_in_WI: Speaking of great covers... I just heard Chan Marshal's version of the Everlys "Dreams." Amazing
	4:26pm djsheilab: Hey + thanks PaulRobeson1920!
	4:27pm annette: @shelby. like that phrase: getting older. never say: getting old. best elixir is : getting older.
	4:27pm chresti: I have to listen to Chan Marshall's covers album.
	4:28pm winston legthigh: the selections keep getting better if thats possible
	4:28pm djsheilab: Andrew_in_WI—I shall check! Thanks for the tip.
	4:28pm Rick G: This version is WAY different than the Burroughs version on Tom Waits’ Black Rider!
	4:29pm Rob Kopp: I have to go. Will listen to the rest tomorrow. Enjoy the rest of the show everyone.
	4:29pm djsheilab: Haha...winston legthigh, perhaps it is!
	4:30pm Vanessa Tara: charleston, anyone? :)
	4:31pm ShelbyG: This Cookies track is wonderful
	4:31pm Nelo: Oh what a fantastic set. Sheila B, your music is - as always - phenomenal 😻😸💫🤗
	4:31pm Vanessa Tara: <
	4:32pm winston legthigh: surface noise haha!
	4:33pm ShelbyG: @annette: I’m no where near “old”. Growing older? Yes. And wiser.
	4:33pm Andrew_in_WI: @Joe McG Somebody's trying to take over your show!
	4:35pm Michael 98145: we hear you
	4:36pm ShelbyG: @sheilab: thank you thank you 🙏🏽 aging is a trip, shows you a lot about people
	4:36pm queems: a guy who could have been my grandfather told me i smelled good today and winked at me
	4:37pm syddog: yikes @queems :/
	4:38pm drew: Tends to work the opposite for young men. They're generally invisible compared with other men.
	4:38pm P-90: Up and coming music genre: “Geri-Metal”?
	4:39pm Bimbus Bambus: I'm ready for the 60+ SBB
	4:40pm yippie: i know a 29 year old guy who moved in with a 65 year old granny girlfriend
	4:40pm ShelbyG: SheilaB: sending you love for being vulnerable - you’re my hero ♥️
	4:40pm Joey!!: Love whatever age your at!! I have learned so much from 70 year olds!!! I know exactly what your saying Sheila!
	4:40pm winston legthigh: what a rude man. weer not all bad.
	4:40pm lunarleigh: Hello SheilaB! I’m listening from Red Hook, Brooklyn. I’m feeling a bit under the weather, and the weather is feeling under the weather too! But I’m enjoying the thunder & lightning as I’ve got my cat, Ollie, on my lap and you and your show are making everything all right! It’s the perfect show of mellow and quirky tunes! My condolences and hugs go out to everyone on the chat who recently had their furry one’s pass on. Animals are our companions, teachers and make our lives so much fuller…
	4:40pm Vanessa Tara: sheila: i'll be turning 51 on sep 6 ... i fear the isolation of age ...
	4:41pm dreamyandseedy: i am also down for the 60+ SBB!!
	4:41pm Passaic River Blues: Yu Su is just excellent.
	4:41pm yippie: hes israeli and shes german. they met on facebook
	4:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: As a male getting older (older than you) I'm very much conscious of becoming less attractive - & there's overlap with pandemic isolation (which is probly somewhat common). But I've never been very sociable or a 'magnet' either - so once again I think all my frames of reference are just different...
	4:42pm Joey!!: Ill be 60 on Dec 6! Love it!!!
	4:42pm Michael 98145: love is all there is
	4:42pm JohnEBGood: Wow. Go go 80's female metal. It's Only Rock and Roll 🎸🧷
	4:42pm lunarleigh: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/08/26/arts/music/inge-ginsberg-dead.html
	4:42pm Rick A: Well said, Sheila, there is a crushing double standard about men and women aging which is consistently reinforced in the movies where geezer actors are depicted dating women young enough to be their daughters, or even granddaughters.
	4:43pm djsheilab: Rick A—Exactly.
	4:43pm ShelbyG: I had shaved my head for years. We were in West Bay, UK visiting my husband’s family. I had a guy come up & just start “petting” my head. This was just a couple years ago. He sighed. “Lovely”. Huh?!
	4:44pm lunarleigh: The photo used in this obit story is priceless & kickass!
	4:44pm djsheilab: Revolution Rabbit Nov63—Absolutely. Thank you for sharing.
	4:44pm ShelbyG: @vanessa: I’m 52. It’s a crazy thing.
	4:45pm djsheilab: winston legthigh—It's not about men being good or bad. Just the reality of our society.
	4:45pm HyperDose: Last three times I got flirted with were by two elderly women and a gay man. A wonderful fellow glistener also told me I had nice teeth at a meet-up recently. I'll take what I can get in my old age!
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: You trade Youth for Experience ...of course - it's still a rotten deal. :D ...I always think of an episode of 30Rock where the Jane Krakowski character is mortified she's been given the part of the Mother in something. & gets all dramatic about being an Actor turning - GASP - 40 ! They did that very well...
	4:46pm Vanessa Tara: sheila, et al: but my life actually started at 40 when i began transitioning
	4:46pm rw: I'm having trouble imagining Sheila B. ever outgrowing her youthful energy. What's the name of that heavy metal band? I need to look them up.
	4:47pm djsheilab: drew—Appreciate your comment.
	4:47pm Rick A: I guess it shouldn't; however, I'm still surprised whenever, I hear stories of people invading others' spaces. That is really gross, Shelby. I'm sorry you had to experience that. The stories of white people touching Black women's hair are completely bizarre to me. However, given the sense of entitlement of white men, I suppose they shouldn't be so strange to me.
	4:47pm Lake Hiawatha Doug: All genders have their struggles. Unattached middle-age men tend to be viewed with an inherent suspicion and looked at as weird or creepy. But the struggle for women is more embedded in history… so I would never diminish or discount it.
	4:49pm Avrilinmay: Good evening Sheila and all ! I was replying by myself to the radio how you were not failing to explain yourself, it was immediately crystal clear ! (from witnessing it and living through similar situationS) although it is totally understandable that it feels so uncomfortable to relate it (as usual with truths and the relativity of human experiences). Unfortunately it would take so long to talk about this while being fair to everyone in this. I will just say something that I believe in my heart to be true, even when it seems hard to live by, hoping it might help: we should not see It as a competition between each other. and once again , thank you Sheila ! :))) (felt prompted to reply to this as "the pressure of numbers" during my last birthday made me go through the exact anxiety, plus it was like you were in my head since I have been thinking exactly about this ever since and up to like just earlier in the day I think ! :D)
	4:49pm djsheilab: Lake Hiawatha Doug—That's very true. All perspectives are welcome and sharing about men's issues doesn't discount women's historical struggles. Glad everyone is comfortable sharing here!
	4:49pm JohnEBGood: Nice, a little Bo beat here ; )
	4:50pm djsheilab: Thanks for posting the link, lunarleigh!
	4:50pm ShelbyG: @rick: thanks 🙏🏽 I don’t think was an inherently “bad guy”. I firmly explained that he should probably ask someone, a stranger, to get permission 1st. He was mortified by his own behavior. He apologized. But. You know.
	4:50pm djsheilab: Thank you for this thoughtful comment, Avrilinmay!
	4:50pm Michael 98145: Whoa ... -where- did you find this?!
	4:50pm ShelbyG: @vanessa: yes!
	4:51pm winston legthigh: thanks for the music and for sharing djsheilab. have a good one everybody!
	4:51pm dreamyandseedy: @HyperDose: nice teeth is a great compliment! jealous
	4:52pm Michael 98145: some of us white males are disgusted by our narcissists. just sayin.
	4:52pm Passaic River Blues: Seriously into Czech trance pop.
	4:53pm dreamyandseedy: i second Michael 98145's question regarding Nijana
	4:53pm Rick A: That's something, Shelby' it's too bad that you had to teach him about his behavior. Sheila, another booty shaker from behind the Iron Curtain. I guess a whole show could consist of dance music from Cold War Eastern Europe.
	4:54pm annette: i put it all in a nutshell : every decade we embrace the new and toss the old. remember when a pimple was the end of the world ? be content, all.
	4:55pm djsheilab: Vanessa Tara—September gals! Thanks for sharing about your transitioning. Let's make sure we counter the isolation of age!
	4:56pm ShelbyG: Rick: agreed on music out of Eastern Europe
	4:57pm michael z: Such. Glorious show Sheila.
	4:58pm Will in Norman: I also agree Rick & shelby, Soviet bloc pop music is 1 of my areas of interest as a musicologist. If it was easier to get my hands on without leaving the states (tho tbf it's a lot easier than it used to be with the internet & the end of the cold war) I'd do a show or podcast about it. (I may still 1 of these days)
	4:58pm popchop: Haven't heard this Joan Armatrading song since the year it was released. I was in 12th grade. Yay!
	4:59pm Joey!!: Absolutely annette!! My father told me that when i was growing up. I miss him so much!
	4:59pm Vanessa Tara: holy ....
	4:59pm Michael 98145: i suggest those with empathy will seldom face isolation.
	4:59pm Vanessa Tara: sugar from behind the iron curtain
	4:59pm P-90: LOL
	4:59pm HyperDose: @dreamyandseedy I hear that often, including tales of dental nightmares. I consider myself extremely fortunate
	4:59pm djsheilab: popchop—Ahhhh to have this soundtrack your youth!
	5:00pm djsheilab: Thank you michael z!
	5:00pm Michael 98145: love this
	5:01pm ShelbyG: @michael: truth
	5:01pm Vanessa Tara: love doing the jazz hands finish to sugartown
	5:02pm Will in Norman: this blog post has a translation of the lyrics to that bleharova song motls.blogspot.com...
	5:02pm ShelbyG: This everyday is superb
	5:03pm annette: @ joey. where else, but here ,do we all connect.
	5:03pm Joey!!: Im so glad of that. Such great friends i found here!
	5:04pm JohnEBGood: Is Poland East or West Europe? I taught immigrants from there. They liked Metallica, Chuck Berry and Rock and Roll!
	5:04pm yippie: i just saw my phone that my friend texted me you played a song with taint in the name
	5:04pm Passaic River Blues: @Will in Norman: if you're not familiar, check out Grupul Stereo, an early-to-mid 1980s Romanian female synthpop duo produced by the composer Adrian Enescu. They had one record (and maybe some singles/edits) that one of these labels should re-released. The song "Infinite Column" is a personal favorite: www.youtube.com...
	5:05pm Michael 98145: i think of Poland as Central Europe
	5:05pm Barefootin along: So good! Listening to WFMU and the thunder overhead! Really digging all the Album Art!
	5:05pm Passaic River Blues: *should re-release.
	5:05pm ledzeppelinsucks: The Officer and a Gentleman room that the guy hanged himself in is being renovated. Drove past it minutes ago.
	5:05pm ?: Embrace the CRONE life!! :p
	5:05pm Jett: @DjSheilaB You'll always be ageless in my eyes!
	5:05pm chresti: 44! You're still a baby, sheilab!
	5:06pm mrdonutsu: Men over 40 are definitely putting their ages younger on dating apps too.
	5:06pm UncleMarty: ¿Qué pasa guera ? Elmhurst in da house
	5:06pm yippie: i think men should put their age younger on apps too and lie about their age equally as women
	5:07pm Anton: Sheila B. I love your show and it’s one of the best! I look forward to it each week. Your personality and programming could charm a stone!
	5:07pm MelindafromAustin: Listening from Austin, allowing the music to sooth. Turned 45 this August & feeling the invisibility more & more all the time. It’s a constant challenge to rebuild my self worth & touch base with new aspects of my identity. I refuse to shrink & stop growing! Thanks Sheila. 💜
	5:07pm yippie: they could get younger partners
	5:07pm ShelbyG: My violin skills are a work in progress & at this point, only for me.
	5:07pm ledzeppelinsucks: Turned out he hated the slow WiFi and killed himself.
	5:07pm annette: i think of poland as south scranton. we had a PIANO. sweet memories. i think we sponged off the rest of the USA
	5:07pm Jett: I'm over 40, I won't lie about my age. I'll never deny my age. Love me for who I am. Bottom line!
	5:09pm Passaic River Blues: @Annette: I'll meet you in front of the Polish National Catholic. You know, on Pittson Avenue, going down toward Minooka.
	5:09pm Michael 98145: ... or is Poland, East Chicago? 😊
	5:09pm HyperDose: I can sympathize with fear of loneliness due to aging, especially as someone with dating app experience. Problem is, when you lie about your age (or anything else for that matter), you will be rejected just for the dishonesty alone. The other person instantly thinks "what else would they lie about?". It's a self-fulfilling prophecy of rejection.
	5:09pm Rick G: After a very amicable divorce I found myself online dating in my 50’s two years ago. It never occurred to me to lie about age-they’re going to see you eventually! A woman friend had a date with a man who lied by a good 15 years, so it happens. Now I’m happy with someone I met online who is younger. By two years, ha.
	5:09pm Will in Norman: ooh thanks passaic river, sounds intriguing!
	5:09pm Anton: Getty Molzen was in her mid-70s when she launched her rock career with her cover of “Walk on the Wild Side” : m.youtube.com...
	5:09pm Jett: @ShelbyG I played violin as a kid, haven't picked up a violin since I was 12. Don't know if I can still play.
	5:09pm syddog: also started playing guitar 2 years ago and it has been such a joy!
	5:10pm JohnEBGood: djshilab tickliig the keys. I Got Jumps in My Throat When I Saw Here Walking Down the Aisle!!
	5:10pm Avrilinmay: okay now you are definitely in my head Sheila! :D
	5:10pm yippie: i sell bikes with no breaks
	5:10pm Michael 98145: i played accordion as a kid -- how slavic !
	5:10pm Avrilinmay: @Michael 98145 : my belief as well! try building your network of support/friendship, if that is feasible, starting from a place of love and self-acceptance of your vulnerability...the rest (I hope) will get taken care of by life and the other humans. wish you big circles of buddies :))
	5:10pm Carmichael: @Jett, I'm waaaaayyyy older than 40 ...
	5:11pm ledzeppelinsucks: Any type of restaurant has a Polish hostess in Chicago. Works great at the taco shops.
	5:11pm pgalub: Hey Sheila! Sounding great! 🎹
	5:11pm ShelbyG: I’m on my own right now. I guess it’s rehearsal?? It’s a surreal time in my life.
	5:11pm syddog: Perhaps a weird request, but since we all seem to share similar taste in music, does anyone have any film recommendations? I like things that are a little emotional but dont leave me feeling empty :~)
	5:11pm Ric: I've been playing guitar for about 10 years, but i don't see myself recording music before I hit 35
	5:11pm chresti: I'm exactly 20 years older than sheilab.
	5:12pm Carmichael: @Michael, I have a squeezebox I'm just fumbling around with. Maybe some day it will make a positive sound.
	5:12pm mrdonutsu: When I turned 50, all my female friends advised me to say I was 45 on dating apps. I did so against my better judgement and it always felt wrong and coercive. Now I'm just letting 56 be 56. However "old" you are now is still tomorrow's younger version of you. Embrace that as a gift and run with it.
	5:12pm Michael 98145: @Carm, i should dig mine out of the garage!
	5:13pm Carmichael: @syddog, listen to Fabio on Thursdays. His entire comments board revolves around films, both new and classic.
	5:13pm Michael 98145: ( we'll play Lady of Spain together! )
	5:13pm Michelle: From Toronto, yes, that Peggy Seeger song is great! Lots of great discoveries here today!
	5:14pm ledzeppelinsucks: Time for a reality show featuring WA Ferry employees. Yeah!
	5:14pm djsheilab: I am so immersed in reading all your wonderful comments that I forgot to DJ. Doh!
	5:14pm ShelbyG: @Jett: the violin is an unforgiving mistress, I love her tho
	5:14pm Carmichael: HA HA Michael ... I was thinking more like Don't You Mess With my Toot Toot.
	5:14pm djsheilab: Thanks for checking in, Michelle!
	5:14pm syddog: oh thank you for the tip @carmichael :)
	5:15pm syddog: ahhh sheila I just discovered blonde redhead last night and have been listening all day!
	5:15pm Michael 98145: Mama's got a squeezebox
	5:15pm ShelbyG: @zepplinsucks: I have a friend who works for WA ferries
	5:15pm djsheilab: mrdonutsu—I didn't realize men are also encouraged to say they're younger. Wow. We're all caught up in the same game!
	5:16pm ledzeppelinsucks: Anyone notice Spotify song shaving? They shorten leads and choruses by notes. It's not with fade outs or single vs album versions. They butchered some Naked Raygun songs.
	5:16pm Barefootin along: Will you still need me? 🎵 Will you still feed me? When i’m 64 With age comes experience! : )
	5:17pm djsheilab: Barefootin along—Indeed!
	5:17pm Michael 98145: RIP, Charlie W
	5:17pm annette: not dating. retired.content. love the "stone tablets" jokes from my pals. just keep a chuckle in yer pocket.
	5:18pm Michael 98145: i traded in my stone tablet for a flip phone
	5:18pm Will in Norman: ooh this is spooky i like it
	5:19pm ShelbyG: This is gorgeous
	5:19pm mrdonutsu: @djsheilab All well intentioned of course (on the part of my friends), but it just shows how ingrained the notion that younger will always be more desirable actually is.
	5:21pm Ric: It's like a competition on who is less their age. When being younger, the older you act, the better. When you're older, young becomes desirable.
	5:22pm djsheilab: Ric—That pretty much sums it up!
	5:22pm JohnEBGood: You know, I really got a kick out of Charlie Watts playing the air drums when we were all locked down. Was fortunate to see him and his band at their best a few times ; )
	5:22pm syddog: Very true Ric, I'm 25 and went on a date with a 35 year old and was so self conscious every time I referenced college or my parents lol
	5:23pm annette: during this cvd crp, waited in line for HOURS to get my id changed at the Dov. was told the long wait was my drag ofmy stone tablets. itsall good.
	5:23pm ShelbyG: Ric: all the more reason to just be - the math is too complicated
	5:24pm Jett: Yes, @DjSheilaB, People tell me to say I'm younger, I look a lot younger, but why deny who I am. I'm 60 and proud of that and who I am. Love me or hate me, this is me.
	5:25pm HyperDose: A beautiful articulation of coming to terms with life's journey, mrdonutsu. Kudos to you!
	5:25pm ledzeppelinsucks: The boat is stuffed. I have to wait for the next one. Seagulls are shitting on these cars.
	5:26pm syddog: all these songs go really well together. especially love this one
	5:26pm JohnEBGood: Hey , I found the favorite star!
	5:26pm annette: embrace your age and imperfections. you will find comfort. and dont forget music
	5:26pm Passaic River Blues: Have really been into Tomkiw/Algebra Suicide since Scott played a couple of months ago. This is pretty late era for Tomkiw, from my understanding.
	5:26pm Tommy in Neversink: Great show , incredible show , the best show, winning show
	5:27pm djsheilab: Thank you, syddog!
	5:27pm djsheilab: Tommy in Neversink—Woo hoo! I WON! :)
	5:27pm Tommy in Neversink: You win , we all win
	5:27pm Carmichael: The older I get, the better I was.
	5:27pm djsheilab: annette—It's all about the music.
	5:28pm Tommy in Neversink: Carmichael--Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then
	5:29pm Clo: @annette agreed. Couldn't have put it any better. <3
	5:29pm ledzeppelinsucks: I had to fix bail machines at Jefferson County Jail and Callalam County Jail. Delightful Friday.
	5:30pm annette: @jett. still masking up. not wearing make up . miss my earrings. feeling more contented. my friends and family still here.
	5:30pm Rick A: This is a strikingly original cover!
	5:33pm djsheilab: Rick A—Isn't it just?!! It has both heart + wonderfully futuristic vision.
	5:33pm cal: Just came in from a swim. Glad to catch the last half hour, Sheila! I hate getting older! I think about my body changing, slowing down and eventual, do i need to say it! Oh man!
	5:34pm djsheilab: Hey cal! I know, for all the hard work we put in, we get THAT at the end?!!
	5:35pm JohnEBGood: Bad news Cal. Father Time is undefeated.
	5:35pm cal: Yeah! But I guess its important to live NOW and enjoy the Trip!
	5:37pm Rick A: Matt Warwick played a phenomenal Morricone-esque track from the Anderson/Tyler album on Tuesday. This looks to be the must have of the fall.
	5:37pm annette: @cal. perfect time to swim. water staying warm yet air is gettingcool. saltier the better. i envy yoo
	5:37pm HyperDose: A refreshing swim accompanied by moments of reflection sounds like a Friday afternoon well spent!
	5:37pm Avrilinmay: @Anton @5:09 : this sounds like it is going to be right up my alley! thank you for sharing it!
	5:38pm ShelbyG: Beautiful cordettes
	5:38pm ShelbyG: chordettes
	5:39pm ledzeppelinsucks: Is mixing cranberry juice and coconut water a volatile move? I am considering this risk. I don't have any drugs here. It may be considered liquid bath salts.
	5:39pm djsheilab: Rick A—Matt Warwick has a beautiful way with segues!
	5:40pm ShelbyG: @ledzep: you know Ari L? He worked for the ferries. Don’t know if he’s still there.
	5:40pm eric from lake hiawatha: Captivating show thanks for Marian A and Wm T
	5:40pm cal: So nice to hear your responses. This is a great community!
	5:41pm Rick A: ...And Michele played a track from it on the same day. It's a WFMU juggernaut!
	5:42pm dreamyandseedy: the way this set is going i'm not sure i'm gonna hear the new amber mark track! i may have to blast it afterward :)
	5:43pm Bimbus Bambus: A selection from the exactly 20-year-old Vespertine would fit right in though!
	5:44pm HyperDose: Coconut water with a bit of pineapple juice is divine. Can't imagine cranberry would be an issue. Let us know hat happens, ledzeppelinsucks!
	5:44pm Avrilinmay: @JohnEBGood: @5:22 that sounds like it was fun! lovely :)
	5:45pm Avrilinmay: @annette @5:26: hear hear!
	5:46pm Will in Norman: æ is called an 'ash', it makes an 'ah' sound like in 'cat'
	5:46pm Vanessa Tara: thanks so much, sheila!!!
	5:46pm JohnEBGood: Coconut and pineapple. Add rum and you have a Pina Colada 🥤
	5:47pm Rick G: @ledzep: if you’re at Port Townsend headed to Whidbey, wild behavior like that might be better tolerated there than at say Bainbridge Island, haha!
	5:48pm ShelbyG: Thank you for a wonderful show, dj SheilaB
	5:49pm chresti: Thanks Sheila B!
	5:49pm m4marino: you a good dj sheila b.
	5:49pm Clo: Thank you for the great variety of music as always, DJ Sheila B. And I love this Cleo Sol track immensely. :)
	5:49pm JohnEBGood: Hey Avril, It should be on YouTube. I'll check it out after the show.
	5:50pm Jocelyn: Happy Friday Everyone! I hope everyone has a safe and happy weekend!
	5:50pm (Murakami Whywolf))): It could be 'ash' correctly described super by 'Will in Norman', or The 'æ' (ALT+145 on a windows keyboard) is an 'a-e ligature'. In Latin is is properly pronounced like the English pronoun 'I', but lots of people mispronounce it like 'ay' in 'May'. (Aide-memoir: the ancient Germans got their word 'Kaiser' directly from Latin 'Cæsar, yes that initial 'c' was pronounced as 'k'.)(Don't even get me started on Church Latin.)
	5:50pm Geoffrey in Ottawa: This has been such a beautiful show, Sheila. Thank you so much. I have enjoyed every moment of it. And, for what's worth and from what I can tell from listening to you every week, I am sure you are far from being an "invisible woman." Thank you again and have a lovely weekend.
	5:50pm Joey!!: Gotta run, but have a FANTASTIC weekend Sheila and everyone!! Joey!
	5:51pm UncleMarty: Known as "ash" æ used to be pronounced as ah/eh, and now seems to be pronounced as ay. Encyclopædia looks like an exception... being pronounced as ee... but is a misspelling of Encycloaedia
	5:51pm Jocelyn: Bummed I’m too late for the age discussion.
	5:51pm cal: Next week Jocelyn!
	5:51pm Jett: I hear ya @annette Enough with the masks, please!
	5:52pm Gaylord Fields: Thank you, dearest Sheila, and you know why. <3
	5:52pm djsheilab: Jocelyn—I hope we'll revisit it. Today's discussion was very helpful to me and I hope to everyone else here.
	5:52pm Carmichael: Thanks Sheila and kids. Gotta go find my polka shoes.
	5:52pm Jett: @DjSheilaB Thanks for another supercool show, catch u soon again! ❤️
	5:53pm ncjay: thanks Sheila - until the next :)
	5:53pm ledzeppelinsucks: Going to get a burrito at El Kiosko in Oak Harbor. Then going to Anacortes.
	5:53pm Jocelyn: Oh we revisit a lot here which is one of the million reasons this place is great.
	5:53pm michael z: Thank you Sheila for a gorgeous show.
	5:53pm syddog: thank you Sheila! the music you play is wonderful and so are you :)
	5:54pm cal: Happy to have caught the last half hour! Thank you, Sheila!
	5:54pm Will the Sound Guy: Thank you Sheila B for the show 🧐💥💥
	5:54pm ledzeppelinsucks: Thanks for the fun show.
	5:55pm Jocelyn: But the discussions we have here are meaningful, helpful and I learn so much
	5:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Sheila. You always close the week out with style!
	5:55pm Rick A: Yes, thank you, Sheila, really liked the Mary Lattimore. I saw her and Meg Baird at Union Pool two years ago, great show. Thank you too, everyone, for your kind sentiments about my dearly departed friend. Have a great weekend, everybody!
	5:55pm Juli: V Leonard Cohen. V pretty.
	5:56pm chris in the redwoods: been listening and loving your selections, Sheila. thank you!
	5:57pm HyperDose: Thank you for sharing with us, Sheila. In all ways. Peace and safety be with you. 🕊️
	5:58pm ledzepoelinsucks: Going from artists, hippies and boat builders in Port Townsend to Trump fans and Navy in Oak Harbor.
	5:58pm Bimbus Bambus: Dance with me, Sheila!
	5:58pm abc123xyzlmnop: soooooo good. first time listening and this playlist is so gooood. :)
	5:58pm dreamyandseedy: thank you sheila
	5:59pm Carmichael: Dance With Me, Joe?!?
	5:59pm Passaic River Blues: @abc123xyzlmnop: stick with this show; pays dividends!
	6:00pm Avrilinmay: @syddog "Weekend", maybe? if you do not know about it already (and seconding Carmichael's advice especially for links to amazing related sites)
	6:01pm djsheilab: Thank you for spending the afternoon with me, lovely listeners, and for the in-depth chat about getting older. Hope to see you next week! Xoxoxo
	6:06pm Cooh John: I agree, ShelbyG.😡
	6:07pm Avrilinmay: @syddog: could not remember this one on time, so if you are still around, there is also: Broken English (2007)

	3:27pm Dayffid: Hi Sheila and sophisticates!
	3:28pm Rick A: Hello Sheila, I hope you are having a great Friday. Our cat Dougal lost his spirited and defiant battle against cancer and heart disease last week. He was a great friend to me for twelve years and to my wife for fourteen. He was one of the most extroverted and engaging cats I ever knew.
	3:29pm -o-l-i-v-i-e-r-: @djsheilab It's actually very good, everyone should watch it. But it's also utterly depressing.
	3:29pm winston legthigh: sorry for your loss rick a.
	3:29pm Michael 98145: sweet
	3:29pm Jett: I missed you, welcome back. I hope it was a productive week @DjSheilaB ❤️ Great to be hearing you!
	3:30pm listener james from westwood: @Rick A.: Oh, goodness, I'm so sorry.
	3:30pm Michael 98145: sorry to hear that, @Rick A
	3:31pm DjLorraine: Lovely story Sheila
	3:31pm modern blaze: me too. about the garbage...
	3:31pm dreamyandseedy: new bedouine is so exciting! love that album cover
	3:32pm P-90: Those “talking to myself on the taxi ride home” moments…
	3:32pm Rick G: Best wishes to you and your wife, @Rick A
	3:32pm chresti: Sheilab, vitamin C and maybe niacin helps mellow the harsh.
	3:32pm Michael 98145: hydrate
	3:33pm modern blaze: Hydrate also
	3:33pm Joey!!: Rick A.....so sorry to hear.
	3:34pm Gurldoggie: Very glad you’re back Sheila! And I wouldn’t be too embarrassed. I’ll bet most of those WFMU stoners were more wasted then you were, they didn’t notice a thing.
	3:34pm HyperDose: Right there with you, Rick A. Said goodbye to my best friend of 10yrs on Tuesday. Bet you a beer our fur babies became fast friends while crossing the rainbow bridge together. My sincerest condolences to you and your family. 🍻❤️
	3:35pm yippie: i like the dolby 6.9 upmixes of monos
	3:35pm chresti: I like to keep emegen-C packets in my bag and add to water, good for hydrating too!
	3:35pm Dayffid: Sheila - Really love that Bedouine track. Have you played it on here before? It feels like I have heard it before.
	3:36pm Jett: You never need to wallow in shame, don't you realize that you are the brilliant @DjSheilaB ?
	3:37pm djsheilab: Awwww Rick A, I'm sending much love to you during this time. Losing a beloved kitty hurts so much :(
	3:37pm Rick A: Thank you, everyone, WFMU, especially Sheila's show, is a space of empathy and support for those of us who love our four-legged friends. That is a sweet sentiment, HyperDose, thank you. Dougal's feline friend of thirteen years, Junior, seems okay though a little confused that his housemate has disappeared.
	3:38pm Rick A: My condolences to you too, HyperDose, I hope you can find some peace in the special times you shared with your furry friend.
	3:39pm djsheilab: Jett—Shame is my middle name!
	3:39pm djsheilab: Hey Dayffid—It's my first time playing the new Bedouine.
	3:39pm Jett: Also, I hope my buddy Alvy Singer continues to be doing okay.😉 @DjSheilaB
	3:40pm djsheilab: Hey Gurldoggie, yippie + Rick G!
	3:40pm Rick A: Thank you, Sheila, I hope Alvy is okay; I love that name, by the way.
	3:40pm Michael 98145: shame is a sign of a good heart, IMHO
	3:41pm Jett: Hope things are well by you! @DjLorraine
	3:41pm DjLorraine: Hyperdose & Rick A. We are saddened by your loss but inspired by your love
	3:42pm Rick A: Incidentally, I saw the Epstein documentary. It is cogent and compelling though, yes, dispiriting, how this guy was able to manipulate so many powerful people. It's an American nightmare story.
	3:42pm djsheilab: I'm happy to report that Alvy is back in tip-top shape. He had a rough year but made it through :) Thanks for asking Rick A + Jett!
	3:42pm syddog: this is going really well with the rain outside
	3:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yay healthy DJ kitty.
	3:44pm Michael 98145: @chresti, we are fans of Emergen-C®
	3:44pm Rick A: Thank you, Lorraine, those our kind words and happy to hear that Alvy is doing well.
	3:45pm Michael 98145: enjoying your selections again today
	3:46pm djsheilab: Thank you, Michael 98145 :)
	3:47pm chresti: Michael, yes! I often give a dehydrated tennis patron a packet, great for hangovers too.
	3:47pm HyperDose: Thank you, Rick A. Just as you so eloquently stated, the empathy and support here amongst our fellow animal lovers has been an invaluable comfort. Appreciate that beautiful sentiment, DjLorraine
	3:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm scared of getting a fur friend & having to endure the inevitable loss - one just has to have a heart strong enuff to love. My lease prevents it as it happens... I'm too Scorpio to let go easily, tbh.
	3:47pm ShelbyG: Hi all you boom booms, great music SheilaB ♥️👋🏼
	3:48pm djsheilab: Thanks ShelbyG!
	3:51pm ShelbyG: I love this vibe. Great way to start the weekend 🤗
	3:51pm Passaic River Blues: Heard this recently (Cool Blue Flame archive?); in any event, this song is pure magic.
	3:51pm Bimbus Bambus: Wow, the arpeggiator on this one!
	3:52pm chresti: Is that what it is, Bimbus? Sounds great.
	3:53pm Passaic River Blues: Bappi was on fire at this time. Lahiri + 1982 = Guaranteed Dope
	3:53pm ShelbyG: Rick & HD: saying goodbye to a fur baby is so painful. Sending love 💕
	3:54pm ChukAmok: This song just gets better and better the longer it goes on!
	3:55pm djsheilab: Ooooh! It's always a thrill when a particular record gets y'all going!
	3:55pm Jett: @Rick A I'm very saddened by your loss, but keep in mind that as long as Dougal lives in your heart and memory he is still there with you forever.
	3:56pm Hubig Pie: Thanks for the love-er-ly soundtrack for my fence painting chore
	3:56pm chresti: It totally is, sheilab!
	3:56pm Michael 98145: these arrangements are so much fun
	3:56pm ShelbyG: After losing our golden retriever, Leo, I couldn’t imagine getting attached to another dog. We got Pongo & I was a nervous wreck for months that something would happen. But, I found my soul mate in this boy. I will take the risk for the beautiful co-pilot I have with my ride or die buddy!
	3:57pm ShelbyG: it does scare me
	3:57pm βrian: @Hubig Pie: I hope the paint color is saffron.
	3:57pm Jett: I think to most of us Soph-Boomers, your whole show get's us going, Sheila.
	3:58pm ShelbyG: @Jett: yes ♥️
	3:58pm Michael 98145: so glad i discovered this station so long ago
	3:59pm Jett: @Shelby G That's the main reason I'll never own another pet. My heart has been broken twice by 2 beloved pets. I can't deal with that kind of heartbreak again.
	4:00pm Will in Norman: I love this
	4:00pm Passaic River Blues: Just started watching "The Americans"--this would have been a perfect soundtrack for any number of scenes! Really lovely.
	4:01pm Philipp: Heeeyheyhey, salut citizens wfmu land! ))) from Saint-Petersburg (Russia), Эдита Пьеха, приятно слышать : )
	4:01pm Michael 98145: ( "Edita Piekha was born Édith-Marie Piecha in Noyelles-sous-Lens, France" )
	4:01pm Vanessa Tara: howdy!!!
	4:02pm Passaic River Blues: @Michael 98145: wow, I bet she has a hell of a life story.
	4:03pm Bimbus Bambus: waka-chicka intensifies
	4:03pm annette: @rick. guaranteed your precious one is still hangin close. our bodies are only vehicles for this earth. the rest of us, our thoughts, nature, feelings just keep floating around, staying in touch. hugs. ..
	4:05pm Rick A: Thank you, Jett, as long as my wife and I have our memories, Dougal will live in them. Shelby, we take the risk of suffering crushing loss each time we bond with a new furry friend. It's one's choice to open oneself up again. Now we are able to channel our sense of loss through Junior, holding him a little more tightly than we did in the past.
	4:05pm P-90: SBB bringin da funk
	4:08pm syddog: listening in western mass :)
	4:08pm syddog: also, how do we get on the newsletter?
	4:08pm HyperDose: Thank you, ShelbyG. Will definitely adopt another cat down the road, less worried about something happening. More about it not feeling the same as with Pepé, but excited at the prospect of being unconditionally loved again. Hope to see you at Marty's party tomorrow night!
	4:08pm chresti: Listening from San Gabriel, CA!
	4:08pm Steak and Ale: Yo Sheila! Love your show! Up here in Nutley NJ!!!
	4:09pm love2laf: Listening from Muskoka in Canada, loving every song, but "Heard It All Before" just moved me. Love your show Sheila, thank you!
	4:10pm popchop: Enjoying your show in the heart of Philadelphia! lovin'
	4:10pm Barno: Akron, Ohio in the house!
	4:10pm chresti: Love Ernest Ranglin!
	4:10pm Vanessa Tara: the same betty wright?
	4:10pm annette: sheila, you dont need my approval. i am amazed how you bring us such a bouquet of precious sounds from the world over. thank you for it all.
	4:11pm Craig: Hi Sheila B and everyone else! Sheila, please remember compassion starts with yourself. I’m guessing that all the other DJ’s were just as stoked to see and be with you.
	4:11pm Will in Norman: another great soviet pop song about winter www.youtube.com... 'summer without you is like winter'
	4:12pm Bimbus Bambus: I believe next Friday is Bandcamp Friday again, so maybe keep stuff in your cart until then!
	4:12pm Jett: ditto what @annette said!
	4:12pm Hector: Greetings from Chiapas, Mexico. Great selection of music!
	4:13pm djsheilab: Hector! Thanks for checking in from Mexico! Exciting!
	4:13pm Michael 98145: uh oh, i don't think a mermaid belongs in a dryer ...
	4:13pm djsheilab: Thank you for your sweet comment, Craig!
	4:13pm Michael 98145: ... or is that a washing machine?
	4:13pm ShelbyG: Listening from Montpelier, Vermont, on this beautiful summer late afternoon.
	4:13pm djsheilab: Barno from Akron! Hello!!!
	4:14pm Jett: Betty Wright was so brilliant. I miss her a lot. She was also a wonderful woman.
	4:14pm Handy Haversack: Hi, Sheila and all the Sophisticated Boom Boomers! Been listening from this woodsy cabin for the last 45 mins., but we're heading out to K8's gig at Arrowood Farms in Accord, NY. If anyone's in that area, come by later!
	4:14pm djsheilab: Steak and Ale in Nutley, NJ! Thanks for checking in and letting me know you're listening!
	4:14pm Rock Ridge Chess Club: Chiming in from Boone, NC where it is crazy hot (for Boone anyway). But that's okay. The heat came in handy while recoating the homeschool blackboard. Peace on all you good people.
	4:15pm Michael 98145: @HH & K8, hope you have a great time!
	4:15pm annette: @ hyper. raised 9 cats last 25 years. down to one babe. as my pals passed on, sent the $$$$ food, litter, vets bills to shelters figuring i could save many more.
	4:15pm djsheilab: Hey popchop in the heart of Philly! Delighted to know you're listening!
	4:15pm Cooh John: Hello my fellow buckeye, Barno.
	4:16pm djsheilab: Hey Vanessa Tara! I presume it is THE Betty Wright.
	4:16pm djsheilab: Thank you annette!
	4:17pm river: havent heard this new peggy seeger, thank you!!
	4:17pm Despeinada from Texas: Hi Sheila! This is GORGEOUS and I just read your email and YES—I’ve gone back to Zumba and it is therapy and ceremony and healing to sweat it out with all the señoras. Yes.
	4:17pm PaulRobeson1920: Peggy Seeger!!
	4:17pm dreamyandseedy: still hoping you can get peggy on the show!
	4:17pm ShelbyG: getting older takes ferocious tenacity & a robust sense of humor
	4:18pm djsheilab: Rock Ridge Chess Club! Thanks for chiming in!
	4:18pm Teresa: Hello everyone and Sheila! I loved the winter ditty, wandering around Williamsburg listening for the next couple hours before my shift starts…noticing all the little happenings as the soundtrack to my life plays LOL
	4:18pm Michael 98145: ( we're all ageing at the same rate _ )
	4:19pm Rob Kopp: I think Peggy Seeger's album is one of the albums of this year I like best.
	4:19pm djsheilab: Despeinada from Texas—Hello lovely!
	4:19pm Carmichael: Sacramento, as always, is in the house. Our Steak & Ale closed about 30 years ago ...
	4:19pm djsheilab: Rob Kopp—Couldn't agree more!
	4:20pm djsheilab: river—my pleasure! I recommend the whole album.
	4:20pm syddog: sheila how do I join the email list !
	4:20pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Michael! See you later, everyone!

	4:21pm djsheilab: What's up Teresa!
	4:22pm Bimbus Bambus: Sleep It Off is such a perfect album.
	4:22pm djsheilab: Thank you for introducing this cover to me, Michael. I love it.
	4:25pm PaulRobeson1920: Good afternoon all, WFMU Land! Listening in on 91.1fm from the Cab of 14 foot box truck. South Orange, NJ Nice show, djsheilab!!! Thank you for playing Peggy Seeger! Peggy Seeger’s brother is Pete Seeger! Dear friends of mine!l
	4:26pm Andrew_in_WI: Speaking of great covers... I just heard Chan Marshal's version of the Everlys "Dreams." Amazing
	4:26pm djsheilab: Hey + thanks PaulRobeson1920!
	4:27pm annette: @shelby. like that phrase: getting older. never say: getting old. best elixir is : getting older.
	4:27pm chresti: I have to listen to Chan Marshall's covers album.
	4:28pm winston legthigh: the selections keep getting better if thats possible
	4:28pm djsheilab: Andrew_in_WI—I shall check! Thanks for the tip.
	4:28pm Rick G: This version is WAY different than the Burroughs version on Tom Waits’ Black Rider!
	4:29pm Rob Kopp: I have to go. Will listen to the rest tomorrow. Enjoy the rest of the show everyone.
	4:29pm djsheilab: Haha...winston legthigh, perhaps it is!
	4:30pm Vanessa Tara: charleston, anyone? :)
	4:31pm ShelbyG: This Cookies track is wonderful
	4:31pm Nelo: Oh what a fantastic set. Sheila B, your music is - as always - phenomenal 😻😸💫🤗
	4:31pm Vanessa Tara: <
	4:32pm winston legthigh: surface noise haha!
	4:33pm ShelbyG: @annette: I’m no where near “old”. Growing older? Yes. And wiser.
	4:33pm Andrew_in_WI: @Joe McG Somebody's trying to take over your show!
	4:35pm Michael 98145: we hear you
	4:36pm ShelbyG: @sheilab: thank you thank you 🙏🏽 aging is a trip, shows you a lot about people
	4:36pm queems: a guy who could have been my grandfather told me i smelled good today and winked at me
	4:37pm syddog: yikes @queems :/
	4:38pm drew: Tends to work the opposite for young men. They're generally invisible compared with other men.
	4:38pm P-90: Up and coming music genre: “Geri-Metal”?
	4:39pm Bimbus Bambus: I'm ready for the 60+ SBB
	4:40pm yippie: i know a 29 year old guy who moved in with a 65 year old granny girlfriend
	4:40pm ShelbyG: SheilaB: sending you love for being vulnerable - you’re my hero ♥️
	4:40pm Joey!!: Love whatever age your at!! I have learned so much from 70 year olds!!! I know exactly what your saying Sheila!
	4:40pm winston legthigh: what a rude man. weer not all bad.
	4:40pm lunarleigh: Hello SheilaB! I’m listening from Red Hook, Brooklyn. I’m feeling a bit under the weather, and the weather is feeling under the weather too! But I’m enjoying the thunder & lightning as I’ve got my cat, Ollie, on my lap and you and your show are making everything all right! It’s the perfect show of mellow and quirky tunes! My condolences and hugs go out to everyone on the chat who recently had their furry one’s pass on. Animals are our companions, teachers and make our lives so much fuller…
	4:40pm Vanessa Tara: sheila: i'll be turning 51 on sep 6 ... i fear the isolation of age ...
	4:41pm dreamyandseedy: i am also down for the 60+ SBB!!
	4:41pm Passaic River Blues: Yu Su is just excellent.
	4:41pm yippie: hes israeli and shes german. they met on facebook
	4:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: As a male getting older (older than you) I'm very much conscious of becoming less attractive - & there's overlap with pandemic isolation (which is probly somewhat common). But I've never been very sociable or a 'magnet' either - so once again I think all my frames of reference are just different...
	4:42pm Joey!!: Ill be 60 on Dec 6! Love it!!!
	4:42pm Michael 98145: love is all there is
	4:42pm JohnEBGood: Wow. Go go 80's female metal. It's Only Rock and Roll 🎸🧷
	4:42pm lunarleigh: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/08/26/arts/music/inge-ginsberg-dead.html
	4:42pm Rick A: Well said, Sheila, there is a crushing double standard about men and women aging which is consistently reinforced in the movies where geezer actors are depicted dating women young enough to be their daughters, or even granddaughters.
	4:43pm djsheilab: Rick A—Exactly.
	4:43pm ShelbyG: I had shaved my head for years. We were in West Bay, UK visiting my husband’s family. I had a guy come up & just start “petting” my head. This was just a couple years ago. He sighed. “Lovely”. Huh?!
	4:44pm lunarleigh: The photo used in this obit story is priceless & kickass!
	4:44pm djsheilab: Revolution Rabbit Nov63—Absolutely. Thank you for sharing.
	4:44pm ShelbyG: @vanessa: I’m 52. It’s a crazy thing.
	4:45pm djsheilab: winston legthigh—It's not about men being good or bad. Just the reality of our society.
	4:45pm HyperDose: Last three times I got flirted with were by two elderly women and a gay man. A wonderful fellow glistener also told me I had nice teeth at a meet-up recently. I'll take what I can get in my old age!
	4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: You trade Youth for Experience ...of course - it's still a rotten deal. :D ...I always think of an episode of 30Rock where the Jane Krakowski character is mortified she's been given the part of the Mother in something. & gets all dramatic about being an Actor turning - GASP - 40 ! They did that very well...
	4:46pm Vanessa Tara: sheila, et al: but my life actually started at 40 when i began transitioning
	4:46pm rw: I'm having trouble imagining Sheila B. ever outgrowing her youthful energy. What's the name of that heavy metal band? I need to look them up.
	4:47pm djsheilab: drew—Appreciate your comment.
	4:47pm Rick A: I guess it shouldn't; however, I'm still surprised whenever, I hear stories of people invading others' spaces. That is really gross, Shelby. I'm sorry you had to experience that. The stories of white people touching Black women's hair are completely bizarre to me. However, given the sense of entitlement of white men, I suppose they shouldn't be so strange to me.
	4:47pm Lake Hiawatha Doug: All genders have their struggles. Unattached middle-age men tend to be viewed with an inherent suspicion and looked at as weird or creepy. But the struggle for women is more embedded in history… so I would never diminish or discount it.
	4:49pm Avrilinmay: Good evening Sheila and all ! I was replying by myself to the radio how you were not failing to explain yourself, it was immediately crystal clear ! (from witnessing it and living through similar situationS) although it is totally understandable that it feels so uncomfortable to relate it (as usual with truths and the relativity of human experiences). Unfortunately it would take so long to talk about this while being fair to everyone in this. I will just say something that I believe in my heart to be true, even when it seems hard to live by, hoping it might help: we should not see It as a competition between each other. and once again , thank you Sheila ! :))) (felt prompted to reply to this as "the pressure of numbers" during my last birthday made me go through the exact anxiety, plus it was like you were in my head since I have been thinking exactly about this ever since and up to like just earlier in the day I think ! :D)
	4:49pm djsheilab: Lake Hiawatha Doug—That's very true. All perspectives are welcome and sharing about men's issues doesn't discount women's historical struggles. Glad everyone is comfortable sharing here!
	4:49pm JohnEBGood: Nice, a little Bo beat here ; )
	4:50pm djsheilab: Thanks for posting the link, lunarleigh!
	4:50pm ShelbyG: @rick: thanks 🙏🏽 I don’t think was an inherently “bad guy”. I firmly explained that he should probably ask someone, a stranger, to get permission 1st. He was mortified by his own behavior. He apologized. But. You know.
	4:50pm djsheilab: Thank you for this thoughtful comment, Avrilinmay!
	4:50pm Michael 98145: Whoa ... -where- did you find this?!
	4:50pm ShelbyG: @vanessa: yes!
	4:51pm winston legthigh: thanks for the music and for sharing djsheilab. have a good one everybody!
	4:51pm dreamyandseedy: @HyperDose: nice teeth is a great compliment! jealous
	4:52pm Michael 98145: some of us white males are disgusted by our narcissists. just sayin.
	4:52pm Passaic River Blues: Seriously into Czech trance pop.
	4:53pm dreamyandseedy: i second Michael 98145's question regarding Nijana
	4:53pm Rick A: That's something, Shelby' it's too bad that you had to teach him about his behavior. Sheila, another booty shaker from behind the Iron Curtain. I guess a whole show could consist of dance music from Cold War Eastern Europe.
	4:54pm annette: i put it all in a nutshell : every decade we embrace the new and toss the old. remember when a pimple was the end of the world ? be content, all.
	4:55pm djsheilab: Vanessa Tara—September gals! Thanks for sharing about your transitioning. Let's make sure we counter the isolation of age!
	4:56pm ShelbyG: Rick: agreed on music out of Eastern Europe
	4:57pm michael z: Such. Glorious show Sheila.
	4:58pm Will in Norman: I also agree Rick & shelby, Soviet bloc pop music is 1 of my areas of interest as a musicologist. If it was easier to get my hands on without leaving the states (tho tbf it's a lot easier than it used to be with the internet & the end of the cold war) I'd do a show or podcast about it. (I may still 1 of these days)
	4:58pm popchop: Haven't heard this Joan Armatrading song since the year it was released. I was in 12th grade. Yay!
	4:59pm Joey!!: Absolutely annette!! My father told me that when i was growing up. I miss him so much!
	4:59pm Vanessa Tara: holy ....
	4:59pm Michael 98145: i suggest those with empathy will seldom face isolation.
	4:59pm Vanessa Tara: sugar from behind the iron curtain
	4:59pm P-90: LOL
	4:59pm HyperDose: @dreamyandseedy I hear that often, including tales of dental nightmares. I consider myself extremely fortunate
	4:59pm djsheilab: popchop—Ahhhh to have this soundtrack your youth!
	5:00pm djsheilab: Thank you michael z!
	5:00pm Michael 98145: love this
	5:01pm ShelbyG: @michael: truth
	5:01pm Vanessa Tara: love doing the jazz hands finish to sugartown
	5:02pm Will in Norman: this blog post has a translation of the lyrics to that bleharova song motls.blogspot.com...
	5:02pm ShelbyG: This everyday is superb
	5:03pm annette: @ joey. where else, but here ,do we all connect.
	5:03pm Joey!!: Im so glad of that. Such great friends i found here!
	5:04pm JohnEBGood: Is Poland East or West Europe? I taught immigrants from there. They liked Metallica, Chuck Berry and Rock and Roll!
	5:04pm yippie: i just saw my phone that my friend texted me you played a song with taint in the name
	5:04pm Passaic River Blues: @Will in Norman: if you're not familiar, check out Grupul Stereo, an early-to-mid 1980s Romanian female synthpop duo produced by the composer Adrian Enescu. They had one record (and maybe some singles/edits) that one of these labels should re-released. The song "Infinite Column" is a personal favorite: www.youtube.com...
	5:05pm Michael 98145: i think of Poland as Central Europe
	5:05pm Barefootin along: So good! Listening to WFMU and the thunder overhead! Really digging all the Album Art!
	5:05pm Passaic River Blues: *should re-release.
	5:05pm ledzeppelinsucks: The Officer and a Gentleman room that the guy hanged himself in is being renovated. Drove past it minutes ago.
	5:05pm ?: Embrace the CRONE life!! :p
	5:05pm Jett: @DjSheilaB You'll always be ageless in my eyes!
	5:05pm chresti: 44! You're still a baby, sheilab!
	5:06pm mrdonutsu: Men over 40 are definitely putting their ages younger on dating apps too.
	5:06pm UncleMarty: ¿Qué pasa guera ? Elmhurst in da house
	5:06pm yippie: i think men should put their age younger on apps too and lie about their age equally as women
	5:07pm Anton: Sheila B. I love your show and it’s one of the best! I look forward to it each week. Your personality and programming could charm a stone!
	5:07pm MelindafromAustin: Listening from Austin, allowing the music to sooth. Turned 45 this August & feeling the invisibility more & more all the time. It’s a constant challenge to rebuild my self worth & touch base with new aspects of my identity. I refuse to shrink & stop growing! Thanks Sheila. 💜
	5:07pm yippie: they could get younger partners
	5:07pm ShelbyG: My violin skills are a work in progress & at this point, only for me.
	5:07pm ledzeppelinsucks: Turned out he hated the slow WiFi and killed himself.
	5:07pm annette: i think of poland as south scranton. we had a PIANO. sweet memories. i think we sponged off the rest of the USA
	5:07pm Jett: I'm over 40, I won't lie about my age. I'll never deny my age. Love me for who I am. Bottom line!
	5:09pm Passaic River Blues: @Annette: I'll meet you in front of the Polish National Catholic. You know, on Pittson Avenue, going down toward Minooka.
	5:09pm Michael 98145: ... or is Poland, East Chicago? 😊
	5:09pm HyperDose: I can sympathize with fear of loneliness due to aging, especially as someone with dating app experience. Problem is, when you lie about your age (or anything else for that matter), you will be rejected just for the dishonesty alone. The other person instantly thinks "what else would they lie about?". It's a self-fulfilling prophecy of rejection.
	5:09pm Rick G: After a very amicable divorce I found myself online dating in my 50’s two years ago. It never occurred to me to lie about age-they’re going to see you eventually! A woman friend had a date with a man who lied by a good 15 years, so it happens. Now I’m happy with someone I met online who is younger. By two years, ha.
	5:09pm Will in Norman: ooh thanks passaic river, sounds intriguing!
	5:09pm Anton: Getty Molzen was in her mid-70s when she launched her rock career with her cover of “Walk on the Wild Side” : m.youtube.com...
	5:09pm Jett: @ShelbyG I played violin as a kid, haven't picked up a violin since I was 12. Don't know if I can still play.
	5:09pm syddog: also started playing guitar 2 years ago and it has been such a joy!
	5:10pm JohnEBGood: djshilab tickliig the keys. I Got Jumps in My Throat When I Saw Here Walking Down the Aisle!!
	5:10pm Avrilinmay: okay now you are definitely in my head Sheila! :D
	5:10pm yippie: i sell bikes with no breaks
	5:10pm Michael 98145: i played accordion as a kid -- how slavic !
	5:10pm Avrilinmay: @Michael 98145 : my belief as well! try building your network of support/friendship, if that is feasible, starting from a place of love and self-acceptance of your vulnerability...the rest (I hope) will get taken care of by life and the other humans. wish you big circles of buddies :))
	5:10pm Carmichael: @Jett, I'm waaaaayyyy older than 40 ...
	5:11pm ledzeppelinsucks: Any type of restaurant has a Polish hostess in Chicago. Works great at the taco shops.
	5:11pm pgalub: Hey Sheila! Sounding great! 🎹
	5:11pm ShelbyG: I’m on my own right now. I guess it’s rehearsal?? It’s a surreal time in my life.
	5:11pm syddog: Perhaps a weird request, but since we all seem to share similar taste in music, does anyone have any film recommendations? I like things that are a little emotional but dont leave me feeling empty :~)
	5:11pm Ric: I've been playing guitar for about 10 years, but i don't see myself recording music before I hit 35
	5:11pm chresti: I'm exactly 20 years older than sheilab.
	5:12pm Carmichael: @Michael, I have a squeezebox I'm just fumbling around with. Maybe some day it will make a positive sound.
	5:12pm mrdonutsu: When I turned 50, all my female friends advised me to say I was 45 on dating apps. I did so against my better judgement and it always felt wrong and coercive. Now I'm just letting 56 be 56. However "old" you are now is still tomorrow's younger version of you. Embrace that as a gift and run with it.
	5:12pm Michael 98145: @Carm, i should dig mine out of the garage!
	5:13pm Carmichael: @syddog, listen to Fabio on Thursdays. His entire comments board revolves around films, both new and classic.
	5:13pm Michael 98145: ( we'll play Lady of Spain together! )
	5:13pm Michelle: From Toronto, yes, that Peggy Seeger song is great! Lots of great discoveries here today!
	5:14pm ledzeppelinsucks: Time for a reality show featuring WA Ferry employees. Yeah!
	5:14pm djsheilab: I am so immersed in reading all your wonderful comments that I forgot to DJ. Doh!
	5:14pm ShelbyG: @Jett: the violin is an unforgiving mistress, I love her tho
	5:14pm Carmichael: HA HA Michael ... I was thinking more like Don't You Mess With my Toot Toot.
	5:14pm djsheilab: Thanks for checking in, Michelle!
	5:14pm syddog: oh thank you for the tip @carmichael :)
	5:15pm syddog: ahhh sheila I just discovered blonde redhead last night and have been listening all day!
	5:15pm Michael 98145: Mama's got a squeezebox
	5:15pm ShelbyG: @zepplinsucks: I have a friend who works for WA ferries
	5:15pm djsheilab: mrdonutsu—I didn't realize men are also encouraged to say they're younger. Wow. We're all caught up in the same game!
	5:16pm ledzeppelinsucks: Anyone notice Spotify song shaving? They shorten leads and choruses by notes. It's not with fade outs or single vs album versions. They butchered some Naked Raygun songs.
	5:16pm Barefootin along: Will you still need me? 🎵 Will you still feed me? When i’m 64 With age comes experience! : )
	5:17pm djsheilab: Barefootin along—Indeed!
	5:17pm Michael 98145: RIP, Charlie W
	5:17pm annette: not dating. retired.content. love the "stone tablets" jokes from my pals. just keep a chuckle in yer pocket.
	5:18pm Michael 98145: i traded in my stone tablet for a flip phone
	5:18pm Will in Norman: ooh this is spooky i like it
	5:19pm ShelbyG: This is gorgeous
	5:19pm mrdonutsu: @djsheilab All well intentioned of course (on the part of my friends), but it just shows how ingrained the notion that younger will always be more desirable actually is.
	5:21pm Ric: It's like a competition on who is less their age. When being younger, the older you act, the better. When you're older, young becomes desirable.
	5:22pm djsheilab: Ric—That pretty much sums it up!
	5:22pm JohnEBGood: You know, I really got a kick out of Charlie Watts playing the air drums when we were all locked down. Was fortunate to see him and his band at their best a few times ; )
	5:22pm syddog: Very true Ric, I'm 25 and went on a date with a 35 year old and was so self conscious every time I referenced college or my parents lol
	5:23pm annette: during this cvd crp, waited in line for HOURS to get my id changed at the Dov. was told the long wait was my drag ofmy stone tablets. itsall good.
	5:23pm ShelbyG: Ric: all the more reason to just be - the math is too complicated
	5:24pm Jett: Yes, @DjSheilaB, People tell me to say I'm younger, I look a lot younger, but why deny who I am. I'm 60 and proud of that and who I am. Love me or hate me, this is me.
	5:25pm HyperDose: A beautiful articulation of coming to terms with life's journey, mrdonutsu. Kudos to you!
	5:25pm ledzeppelinsucks: The boat is stuffed. I have to wait for the next one. Seagulls are shitting on these cars.
	5:26pm syddog: all these songs go really well together. especially love this one
	5:26pm JohnEBGood: Hey , I found the favorite star!
	5:26pm annette: embrace your age and imperfections. you will find comfort. and dont forget music
	5:26pm Passaic River Blues: Have really been into Tomkiw/Algebra Suicide since Scott played a couple of months ago. This is pretty late era for Tomkiw, from my understanding.
	5:26pm Tommy in Neversink: Great show , incredible show , the best show, winning show
	5:27pm djsheilab: Thank you, syddog!
	5:27pm djsheilab: Tommy in Neversink—Woo hoo! I WON! :)
	5:27pm Tommy in Neversink: You win , we all win
	5:27pm Carmichael: The older I get, the better I was.
	5:27pm djsheilab: annette—It's all about the music.
	5:28pm Tommy in Neversink: Carmichael--Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then
	5:29pm Clo: @annette agreed. Couldn't have put it any better. <3
	5:29pm ledzeppelinsucks: I had to fix bail machines at Jefferson County Jail and Callalam County Jail. Delightful Friday.
	5:30pm annette: @jett. still masking up. not wearing make up . miss my earrings. feeling more contented. my friends and family still here.
	5:30pm Rick A: This is a strikingly original cover!
	5:33pm djsheilab: Rick A—Isn't it just?!! It has both heart + wonderfully futuristic vision.
	5:33pm cal: Just came in from a swim. Glad to catch the last half hour, Sheila! I hate getting older! I think about my body changing, slowing down and eventual, do i need to say it! Oh man!
	5:34pm djsheilab: Hey cal! I know, for all the hard work we put in, we get THAT at the end?!!
	5:35pm JohnEBGood: Bad news Cal. Father Time is undefeated.
	5:35pm cal: Yeah! But I guess its important to live NOW and enjoy the Trip!
	5:37pm Rick A: Matt Warwick played a phenomenal Morricone-esque track from the Anderson/Tyler album on Tuesday. This looks to be the must have of the fall.
	5:37pm annette: @cal. perfect time to swim. water staying warm yet air is gettingcool. saltier the better. i envy yoo
	5:37pm HyperDose: A refreshing swim accompanied by moments of reflection sounds like a Friday afternoon well spent!
	5:37pm Avrilinmay: @Anton @5:09 : this sounds like it is going to be right up my alley! thank you for sharing it!
	5:38pm ShelbyG: Beautiful cordettes
	5:38pm ShelbyG: chordettes
	5:39pm ledzeppelinsucks: Is mixing cranberry juice and coconut water a volatile move? I am considering this risk. I don't have any drugs here. It may be considered liquid bath salts.
	5:39pm djsheilab: Rick A—Matt Warwick has a beautiful way with segues!
	5:40pm ShelbyG: @ledzep: you know Ari L? He worked for the ferries. Don’t know if he’s still there.
	5:40pm eric from lake hiawatha: Captivating show thanks for Marian A and Wm T
	5:40pm cal: So nice to hear your responses. This is a great community!
	5:41pm Rick A: ...And Michele played a track from it on the same day. It's a WFMU juggernaut!
	5:42pm dreamyandseedy: the way this set is going i'm not sure i'm gonna hear the new amber mark track! i may have to blast it afterward :)
	5:43pm Bimbus Bambus: A selection from the exactly 20-year-old Vespertine would fit right in though!
	5:44pm HyperDose: Coconut water with a bit of pineapple juice is divine. Can't imagine cranberry would be an issue. Let us know hat happens, ledzeppelinsucks!
	5:44pm Avrilinmay: @JohnEBGood: @5:22 that sounds like it was fun! lovely :)
	5:45pm Avrilinmay: @annette @5:26: hear hear!
	5:46pm Will in Norman: æ is called an 'ash', it makes an 'ah' sound like in 'cat'
	5:46pm Vanessa Tara: thanks so much, sheila!!!
	5:46pm JohnEBGood: Coconut and pineapple. Add rum and you have a Pina Colada 🥤
	5:47pm Rick G: @ledzep: if you’re at Port Townsend headed to Whidbey, wild behavior like that might be better tolerated there than at say Bainbridge Island, haha!
	5:48pm ShelbyG: Thank you for a wonderful show, dj SheilaB
	5:49pm chresti: Thanks Sheila B!
	5:49pm m4marino: you a good dj sheila b.
	5:49pm Clo: Thank you for the great variety of music as always, DJ Sheila B. And I love this Cleo Sol track immensely. :)
	5:49pm JohnEBGood: Hey Avril, It should be on YouTube. I'll check it out after the show.
	5:50pm Jocelyn: Happy Friday Everyone! I hope everyone has a safe and happy weekend!
	5:50pm (Murakami Whywolf))): It could be 'ash' correctly described super by 'Will in Norman', or The 'æ' (ALT+145 on a windows keyboard) is an 'a-e ligature'. In Latin is is properly pronounced like the English pronoun 'I', but lots of people mispronounce it like 'ay' in 'May'. (Aide-memoir: the ancient Germans got their word 'Kaiser' directly from Latin 'Cæsar, yes that initial 'c' was pronounced as 'k'.)(Don't even get me started on Church Latin.)
	5:50pm Geoffrey in Ottawa: This has been such a beautiful show, Sheila. Thank you so much. I have enjoyed every moment of it. And, for what's worth and from what I can tell from listening to you every week, I am sure you are far from being an "invisible woman." Thank you again and have a lovely weekend.
	5:50pm Joey!!: Gotta run, but have a FANTASTIC weekend Sheila and everyone!! Joey!
	5:51pm UncleMarty: Known as "ash" æ used to be pronounced as ah/eh, and now seems to be pronounced as ay. Encyclopædia looks like an exception... being pronounced as ee... but is a misspelling of Encycloaedia
	5:51pm Jocelyn: Bummed I’m too late for the age discussion.
	5:51pm cal: Next week Jocelyn!
	5:51pm Jett: I hear ya @annette Enough with the masks, please!
	5:52pm Gaylord Fields: Thank you, dearest Sheila, and you know why. <3
	5:52pm djsheilab: Jocelyn—I hope we'll revisit it. Today's discussion was very helpful to me and I hope to everyone else here.
	5:52pm Carmichael: Thanks Sheila and kids. Gotta go find my polka shoes.
	5:52pm Jett: @DjSheilaB Thanks for another supercool show, catch u soon again! ❤️
	5:53pm ncjay: thanks Sheila - until the next :)
	5:53pm ledzeppelinsucks: Going to get a burrito at El Kiosko in Oak Harbor. Then going to Anacortes.
	5:53pm Jocelyn: Oh we revisit a lot here which is one of the million reasons this place is great.
	5:53pm michael z: Thank you Sheila for a gorgeous show.
	5:53pm syddog: thank you Sheila! the music you play is wonderful and so are you :)
	5:54pm cal: Happy to have caught the last half hour! Thank you, Sheila!
	5:54pm Will the Sound Guy: Thank you Sheila B for the show 🧐💥💥
	5:54pm ledzeppelinsucks: Thanks for the fun show.
	5:55pm Jocelyn: But the discussions we have here are meaningful, helpful and I learn so much
	5:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Sheila. You always close the week out with style!
	5:55pm Rick A: Yes, thank you, Sheila, really liked the Mary Lattimore. I saw her and Meg Baird at Union Pool two years ago, great show. Thank you too, everyone, for your kind sentiments about my dearly departed friend. Have a great weekend, everybody!
	5:55pm Juli: V Leonard Cohen. V pretty.
	5:56pm chris in the redwoods: been listening and loving your selections, Sheila. thank you!
	5:57pm HyperDose: Thank you for sharing with us, Sheila. In all ways. Peace and safety be with you. 🕊️
	5:58pm ledzepoelinsucks: Going from artists, hippies and boat builders in Port Townsend to Trump fans and Navy in Oak Harbor.
	5:58pm Bimbus Bambus: Dance with me, Sheila!
	5:58pm abc123xyzlmnop: soooooo good. first time listening and this playlist is so gooood. :)
	5:58pm dreamyandseedy: thank you sheila
	5:59pm Carmichael: Dance With Me, Joe?!?
	5:59pm Passaic River Blues: @abc123xyzlmnop: stick with this show; pays dividends!
	6:00pm Avrilinmay: @syddog "Weekend", maybe? if you do not know about it already (and seconding Carmichael's advice especially for links to amazing related sites)
	6:01pm djsheilab: Thank you for spending the afternoon with me, lovely listeners, and for the in-depth chat about getting older. Hope to see you next week! Xoxoxo
	6:06pm Cooh John: I agree, ShelbyG.😡
	6:07pm Avrilinmay: @syddog: could not remember this one on time, so if you are still around, there is also: Broken English (2007)
