	♥ 12:06pm Rich in Washington: Hi chresti! Hi Yvang!
	12:07pm Tony Coulter: @ Yvang: I vote for ham. I had never seen anything at all like this by Magritte. It's so unlike what I'm used to seeing from him.
	12:08pm Tony Coulter: Hey there, WR!
	12:08pm ARB: It's a beret made of ham?

	♥ 12:14pm solo mon: Definitely getting dry salami or bologna vibes.
	♥ 12:15pm solo mon: Crazy how they can turn old cars into radio.
	12:15pm Listener Phillip (the bronx): Made it again! Ugh😞 14 mon lates😞
	12:15pm Tony Coulter: @ WR: Yes, we are a heartless bunch, even more so than usual. Pay-up time starts Friday -- but so does radio-specials time.
	12:16pm Tony Coulter: Hi there, Phillip!
	♥ 12:16pm chresti: I know, right? Hi solo mon!
	♥ 12:17pm listener james from westwood: Was in from the jump but just in the kitchen getting the new slow cooker filled with lentil-veggie soup fixin's, but now back at the computer! Happy autumn, Tony and all!
	♥ 12:17pm solo mon: Hi chresti ;-) sorry about your car! But to a good cause! Papa needs a new pair of boots.
	♥ 12:17pm listener james from westwood: @chresti: Yay for cycling cars into helping FMU!
	12:18pm rw: Good morning! I had no heart to begin with.
	12:18pm Tony Coulter: Hey, James! Autumnal greetings to you too!
	12:18pm Tony Coulter: Morning, rw!
	12:19pm Listener Phillip (the bronx): @Tony Coulter good rainy afternoon mr Coulter 😁 happy to be here again
	12:22pm rw: Looks like that plaid jacket is wearing its heart on its sleeve.
	12:22pm Tony Coulter: Ha!
	♥ 12:24pm solo mon: this version workin on the railroad is totally insane. They really went some places.
	♥ 12:25pm Asheville Jon: i think someone's in the kitchen doing acid with Dinah
	12:26pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, Jon!
	♥ 12:26pm Rich in Washington: RIP chrestimoblle. Death and rebirth, etc.
	12:26pm Kay: That was just enough strummin' and fiddlin'
	12:28pm Hams: which record store in paris?
	♥ 12:28pm Asheville Jon: howdy Tony!
	12:29pm Tony Coulter: Hey there, Kay and Hams!
	12:30pm Tony Coulter: @ Hams: Odd Size. It closed years ago, though. It was a great record store.
	♥ 12:30pm Rich in Washington: I remember C.W. Vrtacek doing that hilarious Residents parody.
	♥ 12:31pm chresti: Thanks listener james!
	12:31pm Tony Coulter: @ Rich: Yes! "Now Available."
	12:32pm Hams: oh, ok. thanks.
	♥ 12:36pm Rich in Washington: I hate when that happens.
	12:38pm rw: I listened to that whole story, but I couldn't understand the last line!
	12:38pm rw: Maybe it's better that way.
	12:40pm Tony Coulter: I can't quite understand it either. I think the idea is "now you'll now what fluttering obsessively under a streetlamp is like."
	12:40pm Tony Coulter: @ Rich: You mean, when your hot date turns out to be a giant moth? That is a real drag.
	12:41pm rw: It was definitely ominous.
	12:43pm rw: And that's never happened to me. I need to get out more.
	♥ 12:46pm chresti: Now I know what to expect when I meet a giant moth.
	1:05pm HollyRT: Greetings, Tony et al.! Just stopping by for a few
	1:06pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Holly! Take off your shoes and get comfortable....
	1:07pm Listener Phillip (the bronx): Great sounds! Cheering up a dreary cloudy day here in the bronx⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
	♥ 1:13pm Little Danny: I am into this.
	1:13pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Danny!
	♥ 1:14pm Little Danny: Hello Tony and other plantlife!
	1:16pm Tony Coulter: Plants are the dominant form of life on Earth. By weight, there's more of them than there is of us.
	1:17pm Tony Coulter: When you throw in all the trees....
	♥ 1:18pm Stanley: Hi Tony Culture.
	1:19pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, Stanley Stan!
	♥ 1:24pm Little Danny: '50s musique concrete certainly cast a large shadow over European composers. (I heard some of that spooky early electronic formlessness in the Donzel-Gargand piece, at least.)
	♥ 1:25pm Rich in Washington: This is fantastic!
	1:28pm Tony Coulter: @ Little Danny: Yeah, especially in France, musique concrete aesthetics are alive and well.
	1:29pm Tony Coulter: To this day....
	1:32pm Tony Coulter: This Schirren piece is the score to a 1963 film: www.imdb.com...
	1:33pm Tony Coulter: By Edmond Bernhard: www.imdb.com...
	♥ 1:34pm Little Danny: There is a single baffling summary of that film on IMDB: "Leisure in a big town. What is more boring? What is more empty and meaningless? Look at that silly changing of the guard outside the Royal Palace or that movie theater bombastic advertisement "Adventure is escapism". Consider those deserted tables outside a café or those kids playing hide and seek at the top of a building under construction. The viewer is caught in the whirlwind of ordinary boredom."
	♥ 1:35pm Little Danny: Needless to say I am now desperate to watch it.
	♥ 1:37pm Yvang: it's on youtube youtu.be...
	1:38pm Tony Coulter: Aha! Thanks, Yvang. I'll watch it myself post-show.
	♥ 1:40pm Little Danny: ha yeah I just skimmed it and that summary is indeed pretty accurate
	♥ 1:40pm Yvang: "A short film about boredom that manages to sublimate the everyday, without commentary and usage of exceptional images."
	♥ 1:42pm Little Danny: This Schirren piece is also really, really great.
	♥ 1:42pm Little Danny: "A short film about boredom" does set the bar pretty low though.
	♥ 1:43pm Yvang: This is not a way to sell to a large audience.
	1:43pm Tony Coulter: Sounds better than "a boring film about shortness," though.
	1:44pm Tony Coulter: Or maybe not....
	♥ 1:44pm Little Danny: haha, indeed
	♥ 1:44pm Yvang: Boredom is underrated.
	♥ 1:45pm Little Danny: And I do love slow films.
	♥ 1:46pm coelacanth∅: greetings Tony and Coultered listeners
	1:48pm Tony Coulter: Greets, coel!
	♥ 1:49pm chresti: Or a long film about boredom @Tony
	♥ 1:50pm coelacanth∅: there's an Ana Roxanne piece that, in a minimal way, celebrates slowness
	♥ 1:53pm Little Danny: that's right, Coel! I dig what I've heard by Ana Roxanne, only just recently became aware of her via Solo Mon.
	♥ 1:56pm Little Danny: on an old Nazario Scenario, I remember Amanda discussing how important it was to her well-being to have at least some unstructured idle time (what we Americans would dismiss as laziness) in her life. I was and am fully on board for it.
	♥ 1:58pm chresti: Me too, Danny. Being always busy is overrated. I always need time to "pause and reflect"
	♥ 1:58pm coelacanth∅: in my world there is no such thing as "idle moments"
	♥ 1:59pm coelacanth∅: -though i'm sure many people would estimate my life to be composed of many of them
	♥ 2:00pm Yvang: All of humanity's problems stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room alone.
	♥ 2:00pm Little Danny: Chresti I'm still trying to get the "reflect" part!
	♥ 2:01pm Yvang: That's a quote from Blaise Pascal. I don't want to steal credit.
	♥ 2:02pm chresti: Reflecting on what's around you, some party you went to several years ago, etc.
	2:03pm Tony Coulter: I aspire to be like my cat. You know: Run around for a few hours, then veg out on the couch the rest of the day.
	♥ 2:04pm chresti: I was raised by cats, they were my babysitter and role model.
	♥ 2:05pm Yvang: Cats sleep 15 hours a day... they live the dream!
	♥ 2:06pm Little Danny: Why I like you so much chresti!
	2:06pm Sunny: The Neats! One of my all time favorite Boston bands
	♥ 2:07pm listener james from westwood: Absolutely want to come back in the next life as a cat, or maybe a hobbit.
	♥ 2:07pm coelacanth∅: sitting outside a café, with a book i brought on the table, unopened. no cellphone. friends come and sit maybe for part of the time, though no plans were made to meet; but sometimes we don't talk much. time spent well.
	♥ 2:07pm listener james from westwood: How many times does one need to repeat "six" before DDDJJJ666 is summoned?
	2:07pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Sunny! Glad you were here when I played 'em!
	♥ 2:07pm Little Danny: @yvang: I could swear our cats sleep a solid 20 hours per day
	2:08pm Tony Coulter: @ James: Ha! That track should be Thom's theme song.
	♥ 2:08pm Yvang: @Danny Wow! Only four hours to inspect its territory!
	♥ 2:09pm Little Danny: Yeah, coela, that's the best. No social pressure, no distractions.
	♥ 2:10pm Little Danny: @yvang: they're just very efficient during their active time!
	♥ 2:14pm coelacanth∅: Danny, just adding the people and the dogs and the raptors and the sounds of the espresso machine and the wind chimes down the way to my personal dimanche
	♥ 2:16pm Little Danny: I ❤️ "personal dimanche" coela
	♥ 2:20pm coelacanth∅: ha, Thanks Danny! i've never seen it, i'm just guessing about it based on this comments board
	♥ 2:21pm chresti: coel, that sounds like my job at the Tennis courts minus the espresso machine.
	♥ 2:24pm Little Danny: I do enjoy the thwacking sounds from tennis courts, though I'm guessing that novelty has worn off for you at this point, chresti
	♥ 2:24pm listener james from westwood: Hellraiser goodness afoot!
	2:25pm ARB: Such a lovely show today Tony, thank you! Staring at the wall and enjoying thoroughly
	2:26pm Tony Coulter: @ James: Yes! I, and many other DJs, will be doing special programming all month. I didn't sell my first special very well just then (I'm bad at selling), but it'll be a good one, I promise.
	2:27pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, ARB!!
	♥ 2:29pm Yvang: This is not a (Peace and) pipe(s)
	♥ 2:30pm Little Danny: this Leonda is lovely, totally new to me
	♥ 2:30pm Little Danny: ARB!
	2:30pm Tony Coulter: @ Yvang: Ceci n'est pas....
	♥ 2:30pm Yvang: Full circle!
	♥ 2:31pm coelacanth∅: chresti, so...you get paid for doing what i do for free?!
	♥ 2:33pm Rich in Washington: "Wanna hear about our specials..?" www.youtube.com...
	♥ 2:35pm Rich in Washington: Gawd. I just recently learned about Sir Lord Baltimore! Total glue sniff damage rock!
	2:36pm Tony Coulter: The lead guitarist was also in the band up next (The Koala).
	♥ 2:37pm Little Danny: hehe Rich this guitar tone is pure huffing
	2:38pm Tony Coulter: I've never sniffed glue, but I did eat it when I was a kid.
	♥ 2:38pm Rich in Washington: yeah. Dig that octave'd fuzz!
	♥ 2:39pm Little Danny: didn't know about the Koala connection, that LP is still so underrated, and kinda ahead of its time imo
	♥ 2:40pm Stanley: Just had to leap out of my bath to clicky this epic Sir Lord Baltimore track
	♥ 2:40pm Rich in Washington: Love this 70s proto metal sludge.
	♥ 2:41pm Rich in Washington: The Koala's totally new to me.
	2:41pm Tony Coulter: Once you know, it's easy to hear that it's the same guitarist in both The Koala and SLB.
	♥ 2:42pm Little Danny: totally hear it
	♥ 2:42pm chresti: pretty much coel, except I walk around and check the courts every hour and check in customers when they walk up to the window, answer phones, pretty chill during the week.
	♥ 2:44pm Little Danny: #1 breastplate psych
	2:45pm Tony Coulter: Ha!
	2:46pm Julie: hey everybody! Get your darkness over here (though it's kinda new wavey today!) wfmu.org...
	2:47pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Julie! Here's to new wave darkness.
	♥ 2:52pm Little Danny: Thanks Tony, such a pleasure as always.
	2:54pm Julie: I like her voice, it actually reminds me a bit of Audrey Hepburn's
	♥ 2:56pm listener james from westwood: Many thanks, Tony!
	♥ 2:56pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Tony!
	2:56pm Listener Phillip (the bronx): Great show👏👏👏

	♥ 1:24pm Little Danny: '50s musique concrete certainly cast a large shadow over European composers. (I heard some of that spooky early electronic formlessness in the Donzel-Gargand piece, at least.)
	♥ 1:25pm Rich in Washington: This is fantastic!
	1:28pm Tony Coulter: @ Little Danny: Yeah, especially in France, musique concrete aesthetics are alive and well.
	1:29pm Tony Coulter: To this day....
	1:32pm Tony Coulter: This Schirren piece is the score to a 1963 film: www.imdb.com...
	1:33pm Tony Coulter: By Edmond Bernhard: www.imdb.com...
	♥ 1:34pm Little Danny: There is a single baffling summary of that film on IMDB: "Leisure in a big town. What is more boring? What is more empty and meaningless? Look at that silly changing of the guard outside the Royal Palace or that movie theater bombastic advertisement "Adventure is escapism". Consider those deserted tables outside a café or those kids playing hide and seek at the top of a building under construction. The viewer is caught in the whirlwind of ordinary boredom."
	♥ 1:35pm Little Danny: Needless to say I am now desperate to watch it.
	♥ 1:37pm Yvang: it's on youtube youtu.be...
	1:38pm Tony Coulter: Aha! Thanks, Yvang. I'll watch it myself post-show.
	♥ 1:40pm Little Danny: ha yeah I just skimmed it and that summary is indeed pretty accurate
	♥ 1:40pm Yvang: "A short film about boredom that manages to sublimate the everyday, without commentary and usage of exceptional images."
	♥ 1:42pm Little Danny: This Schirren piece is also really, really great.
	♥ 1:42pm Little Danny: "A short film about boredom" does set the bar pretty low though.
	♥ 1:43pm Yvang: This is not a way to sell to a large audience.
	1:43pm Tony Coulter: Sounds better than "a boring film about shortness," though.
	1:44pm Tony Coulter: Or maybe not....
	♥ 1:44pm Little Danny: haha, indeed
	♥ 1:44pm Yvang: Boredom is underrated.
	♥ 1:45pm Little Danny: And I do love slow films.
	♥ 1:46pm coelacanth∅: greetings Tony and Coultered listeners
	1:48pm Tony Coulter: Greets, coel!
	♥ 1:49pm chresti: Or a long film about boredom @Tony
	♥ 1:50pm coelacanth∅: there's an Ana Roxanne piece that, in a minimal way, celebrates slowness
	♥ 1:53pm Little Danny: that's right, Coel! I dig what I've heard by Ana Roxanne, only just recently became aware of her via Solo Mon.
	♥ 1:56pm Little Danny: on an old Nazario Scenario, I remember Amanda discussing how important it was to her well-being to have at least some unstructured idle time (what we Americans would dismiss as laziness) in her life. I was and am fully on board for it.
	♥ 1:58pm chresti: Me too, Danny. Being always busy is overrated. I always need time to "pause and reflect"
	♥ 1:58pm coelacanth∅: in my world there is no such thing as "idle moments"
	♥ 1:59pm coelacanth∅: -though i'm sure many people would estimate my life to be composed of many of them
	♥ 2:00pm Yvang: All of humanity's problems stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room alone.
	♥ 2:00pm Little Danny: Chresti I'm still trying to get the "reflect" part!
	♥ 2:01pm Yvang: That's a quote from Blaise Pascal. I don't want to steal credit.
	♥ 2:02pm chresti: Reflecting on what's around you, some party you went to several years ago, etc.
	2:03pm Tony Coulter: I aspire to be like my cat. You know: Run around for a few hours, then veg out on the couch the rest of the day.
	♥ 2:04pm chresti: I was raised by cats, they were my babysitter and role model.
	♥ 2:05pm Yvang: Cats sleep 15 hours a day... they live the dream!
	♥ 2:06pm Little Danny: Why I like you so much chresti!
	2:06pm Sunny: The Neats! One of my all time favorite Boston bands
	♥ 2:07pm listener james from westwood: Absolutely want to come back in the next life as a cat, or maybe a hobbit.
	♥ 2:07pm coelacanth∅: sitting outside a café, with a book i brought on the table, unopened. no cellphone. friends come and sit maybe for part of the time, though no plans were made to meet; but sometimes we don't talk much. time spent well.
	♥ 2:07pm listener james from westwood: How many times does one need to repeat "six" before DDDJJJ666 is summoned?
	2:07pm Tony Coulter: Hey, Sunny! Glad you were here when I played 'em!
	♥ 2:07pm Little Danny: @yvang: I could swear our cats sleep a solid 20 hours per day
	2:08pm Tony Coulter: @ James: Ha! That track should be Thom's theme song.
	♥ 2:08pm Yvang: @Danny Wow! Only four hours to inspect its territory!
	♥ 2:09pm Little Danny: Yeah, coela, that's the best. No social pressure, no distractions.
	♥ 2:10pm Little Danny: @yvang: they're just very efficient during their active time!
	♥ 2:14pm coelacanth∅: Danny, just adding the people and the dogs and the raptors and the sounds of the espresso machine and the wind chimes down the way to my personal dimanche
	♥ 2:16pm Little Danny: I ❤️ "personal dimanche" coela
	♥ 2:20pm coelacanth∅: ha, Thanks Danny! i've never seen it, i'm just guessing about it based on this comments board
	♥ 2:21pm chresti: coel, that sounds like my job at the Tennis courts minus the espresso machine.
	♥ 2:24pm Little Danny: I do enjoy the thwacking sounds from tennis courts, though I'm guessing that novelty has worn off for you at this point, chresti
	♥ 2:24pm listener james from westwood: Hellraiser goodness afoot!
	2:25pm ARB: Such a lovely show today Tony, thank you! Staring at the wall and enjoying thoroughly
	2:26pm Tony Coulter: @ James: Yes! I, and many other DJs, will be doing special programming all month. I didn't sell my first special very well just then (I'm bad at selling), but it'll be a good one, I promise.
	2:27pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, ARB!!
	♥ 2:29pm Yvang: This is not a (Peace and) pipe(s)
	♥ 2:30pm Little Danny: this Leonda is lovely, totally new to me
	♥ 2:30pm Little Danny: ARB!
	2:30pm Tony Coulter: @ Yvang: Ceci n'est pas....
	♥ 2:30pm Yvang: Full circle!
	♥ 2:31pm coelacanth∅: chresti, so...you get paid for doing what i do for free?!
	♥ 2:33pm Rich in Washington: "Wanna hear about our specials..?" www.youtube.com...
	♥ 2:35pm Rich in Washington: Gawd. I just recently learned about Sir Lord Baltimore! Total glue sniff damage rock!
	2:36pm Tony Coulter: The lead guitarist was also in the band up next (The Koala).
	♥ 2:37pm Little Danny: hehe Rich this guitar tone is pure huffing
	2:38pm Tony Coulter: I've never sniffed glue, but I did eat it when I was a kid.
	♥ 2:38pm Rich in Washington: yeah. Dig that octave'd fuzz!
	♥ 2:39pm Little Danny: didn't know about the Koala connection, that LP is still so underrated, and kinda ahead of its time imo
	♥ 2:40pm Stanley: Just had to leap out of my bath to clicky this epic Sir Lord Baltimore track
	♥ 2:40pm Rich in Washington: Love this 70s proto metal sludge.
	♥ 2:41pm Rich in Washington: The Koala's totally new to me.
	2:41pm Tony Coulter: Once you know, it's easy to hear that it's the same guitarist in both The Koala and SLB.
	♥ 2:42pm Little Danny: totally hear it
	♥ 2:42pm chresti: pretty much coel, except I walk around and check the courts every hour and check in customers when they walk up to the window, answer phones, pretty chill during the week.
	♥ 2:44pm Little Danny: #1 breastplate psych
	2:45pm Tony Coulter: Ha!
	2:46pm Julie: hey everybody! Get your darkness over here (though it's kinda new wavey today!) wfmu.org...
