	12:31pm rich the greeb: Lol dry
	12:31pm rich the greeb: *drr
	12:32pm Gurldoggie: Flaming Lips always sounds like they're making a joke. There's something so earnest about Mercury Rev.
	12:33pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: My usual cuppa these days is either one of the very excellent flavors from Bones Coffee Co, my Bustello, occasionally something from DeadSled Coffee, or yerba mate' made in my Mr. Coffee (the stuff is cheap so I just dump about a cup into the basket and let it drip).
	12:33pm xtrakrispy: @drr I can see that. Mark's voice has a slightly different lilt to it. And totally agree with @gurldoggie
	12:34pm Threemoons: And I just realized that even though I am going out to Mom for an extended Thanksgiving/Chanukkah weekend I still need to hit a store to pick up stuff for her. And I am out of milk, bread, and onions. Been a real cave troll lately.
	12:34pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Good afternoon Pseu! Siiiiii ! Café Bustelo @ Threemoons
	12:34pm rich the greeb: I dunno, I think “do you realize?” By the flaming lips is pretty earnest, but maybe I’m just a sucker.
	12:35pm Krys O.: Team Cafe Bustelo here too.
	12:35pm rich the greeb: I’m drinking Dunkin’ cold brew right now
	12:35pm Threemoons: I was too tired to cook last night, treated myself to sushi, but now I really do need to decontaminate and refill my fridge with at least the basics. Opened up a can of evap milk to have in my Bustello as I had less than a tablespoon of milk left...
	12:36pm drr: Wasnt a member of Mercury Rev producing the Flaming Lips records around that time? I think so.
	12:39pm People Like Us: hello!
	12:40pm drr: The Rain Parade sounded great on these lil' computer speakers I'm listening on.
	12:40pm Mike From Brooklyn: Hello Pseu & listeners! BJM & Mercury Rev tickets for Brooklyn Steel, March 28 go on sale at the same time: Tomorrow 10 am.
	12:44pm Pseu Braun: Thanks Mike! JC locals: wl.seetickets.us...
	12:45pm jeff sherin: mercury rev rocked at a looapaloozain mpls. early 90"s. outside stage. thanks for playing them!
	12:45pm Will the Sound Guy: Hi Pseu and all!!! Been vibing with the tunes on my lunch break!
	12:50pm Fishtown Mike: Great show, Pseu! I was on the fence getting tix to Mercury Rev in Phila, but you've convinced me.
	12:57pm Krys O.: Hey, Vicki! Theme from a Summer Place is playing in the production department at work and it makes me think of you. :)
	12:57pm Hydroplane: Cool moody vibes on this one so far
	12:58pm People Like Us: yay Krys :)
	1:00pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): great set Pseu!!!!!
	1:01pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): hey peeps!
	1:06pm Gurldoggie: Here in the great northwest we sneer at your canned corporate coffee. In the immortal paraphrase of Patrick Henry "Give us artisan grown hand-roasted beans, or give us more sleep!"
	1:07pm judy from croton: Hi from a sunny side of the Hudson River
	1:08pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: We buy espresso beans in a 3 pound bag from an Albuquerque company in Albuqeuerque in Sams Club. Is THAT too corporate Gurldoggie? It tastes pretty good freshly ground!
	1:08pm Threemoons: Milk is good for you! Calcium is key.
	1:09pm judy from croton: I can’t pick up fmu from the radio anymore. It saddens me greatly and pisses me off greatly.
	1:09pm Hydroplane: No corporate coffee for me in Hoboken! Where's my pat on the back?
	1:10pm Threemoons: I like Greek Frappes with only a splash of half n half, no sugar. They pronounce it "Frapp" not "Frappay"
	1:10pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): coffee is life
	1:10pm Threemoons: @judy tune in online
	1:11pm Pseu Braun: Threemoons, been to Greece, they say "Frappay" sorry.
	1:11pm Krys O.: I get my calcium from Greek yogurt in my overnight oats, but I put oat milk in my coffee when I'm home. I drink it black at work. And it can not be too hot. Sorry, just a wee bit warmer than room temperature is my preference for coffee. Also can not tolerate sugar in my coffee. Blech.
	1:11pm Pseu Braun: But FRAAAP sounds more like a fart so...
	1:12pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: I used to hang out with a dude that said "furrrrp".
	1:13pm judy from croton: Without a steady stream of fmu I say horrible but heartfelt things to close friends. Yes. The FU thing.
	1:14pm Roberto: Open in the next browser tab to the right: "Why Do Cats Put Their Butt in Your Face?"
	1:14pm judy from croton: Forgive me father for I have sinned
	1:16pm Morphe': Pseu with a Shiv
	1:16pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): Ok, who fraappd?
	1:17pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Krys O: What is overnight oats?
	1:17pm Listening Out There: Tapping toes over here...
	1:19pm judy from croton: I tune in online at home but new phone complications stymying me
	1:20pm Little Danny: killin' it pseu
	1:20pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Nada Surf would kinda go with this.
	1:22pm Morphe': Judy - @1:14 judy from croton: "Forgive me father for I have sinned .." IT HAS BEEN 48 years since my last confession exCatholic sexually abused boy here .. Overcome... I worry for those who carry baggage.. Safe Home Port all ... near or far ..
	1:24pm Krys O.: @Woods: Mixing the dry oats with fixin's and a moist carrier like yogurt or a milky product, then putting them in the fridge to set overnight. Voila! Ready to eat for breakfast by morning. Similar concept to cold brew.
	1:27pm unpopularfred: Here in Massachusetts we say "frap", but we mean "milkshake"
	1:27pm Mike Sin: Really enjoying the show today! Was listening outside for a bit on this "Spring" day, but then some dude moseyed by with a leaf blower so I had to bail. Back inside cranking it up!
	1:28pm Morphe': Judy/All- Catholic Confession normally in the 1960s-70s, confession we spoke in days "Bless me Father for I have sinned it has been XXXX days since my last confession.." My new =not happening confession would say : "Bless me Father for I have sinned it has been 17,520.00 days since my last confession.." Safe out and safe home all .. to the shops...
	1:28pm Krys O.: Wikipedia has one pronunciation, but I'd go with what Pseu heard in Greece.
	1:29pm wendy del formaggio: Hi Pseu! Hi Krys O! I’m working and lurking and enjoying the show. ❤️
	1:29pm judy from croton: Thank you morphe
	1:29pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: ...or some Velvet Crush? This reminds me its been a couple months since I went to confesion. My mens group was discussing hell and sin the other morning at 6am...
	1:30pm Krys O.: The French word means hit or strike. There is some division on the French too.
	1:31pm judy from croton: A touch of perspective is helpful; I needed that
	1:31pm wendy del formaggio: Also, hi to everyone else. I’m not scrolling up right now so I can’t see you.
	1:32pm Krys O.: Hello, Wendy!
	1:32pm Hydroplane: boo radleys sans martin carr :(
	1:32pm Morphe': Wendy - heard on NPR which Ya probably know : Sex Drugs and Cheese???
	1:33pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): I have to take a frappe.
	1:33pm Threemoons: The Greek shop owners near me all say "Frapp"
	1:34pm Threemoons: As long as you get your beverage the way you like it...
	1:34pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Car radios are more sensitive than house radios sometimes...maybe you can drive and get it?
	1:34pm steveo: comment frapplez vous?
	1:35pm Morphe': Boo Radleys - once again .. TO KILL A Mocking Bird is being banned??????? https://bannedbooks.library.cmu.edu/harper-lee-to-kill-a-mockingbird/
	1:37pm Morphe': Wendy - I did not mean NPR ya know NPR .... I meant the website: Sex Drugs and Cheese???
	1:37pm wendy del formaggio: Hi Morphe’: I know nothing about NPR. Ok, slight exaggeration, but I do not partake in that network.
	1:38pm Glistener MW: “that sounds like a dare!!!” - Mark Hurst
	1:38pm TVP: I prefer big wireless BOSE headphones myself.
	1:39pm Destroit: Hooo boy i dipped in here at a weird time. Dbl napkins n such. It’s been awhile, hello Pseu and all.
	1:41pm Gurldoggie: I'm excited for yet another opportunity to give the Beatles my money.
	1:41pm herb.nyc: Wired magazine just said mark hurst got hired by Facebook. And that he’s gonna be asking us to return our “forget Facebook” tees. Wow.
	1:42pm Hydroplane: what are we trying to understand
	1:42pm Morphe': Wendy - I did not mean NPR ya know NPR .... I meant the website: Honest inarticulate email .. of course ya know NPR.. I meant the website: Sex Drugs and Cheese??? something as such !!!
	1:42pm Little Danny: i'd assumed the double napkins thing was due to the general messiness of eating thanksgiving food thusly requiring two napkins?
	1:42pm Mike Sin: As a BeatlesGeek who actually listened to every minute of the "30 Days" bootleg chronicling everything recorded that month of January 1969. I can honestly report that the overwhelming feeling is not fun or hatred or strife. It's actually boredom. But, it all picks up when Preston joins up and they move the proceedings to Apple studios.
	1:43pm wendy del formaggio: Morphe’: Hmm. No. You’re the first to mention it to me. I’m still stuck on the ol’ Tumblr site, “Cheese People,” which I highly recommend to anyone in need of a giggling fit. Which could be ALL OF YOUSE!
	1:43pm drr: herb.nyc: really? same guy?
	1:44pm Pseu Braun: herb, doubtful. provide proof
	1:44pm Ryansterlingvirtue: great song. Thanks, Pseu!
	1:44pm herb.nyc: drr- not really. (Really)
	1:45pm drr: wendy del formaggio: that site is what the internet is for. It's what the creators envisioned.
	1:46pm Fox: I was in the bath. Did I miss all the conversation about dairy? I am trying to find dairy from not miserable cows. Does such a thing exist?
	1:46pm Krys O.: Are we talking pizzeria napkin thickness or 2-ply Kleenex paper towels? One might think one is saving money with a 1-ply thin napkin, but you end up using more to compensate.
	1:46pm Pseu Braun: OK, stop spreading lies herb. Not cool.
	1:47pm Krys O.: BTW-I took a walk outside the office to peep the driveway mailbox and it is lovely outside in these parts. Real Feel is 68 degrees Fahrenheit.
	1:48pm wendy del formaggio: drr: Yes. “Cheese People” has pleased the gods and goddesses for sure.
	1:48pm Yes: fun pond track
	1:48pm Fishtown Mike: Hey now, one person's fake news is another persons lies. Maybe Herb was planning to spread that until it became true.
	1:48pm Mark Hurst: Hi all!
	1:49pm herb.nyc: Very sorry, Pseu. I was making (bad) joke; I thought the tee remark would be the tell. I’ll be more careful in future.
	1:49pm Destroit: Lol hi Mark!
	1:51pm Pseu Braun: herb, MJ goin' out to you
	1:52pm Krys O.: There are bad jokes and then there's libel.
	1:52pm Mark Hurst: You'll know I've taken a job at Facebook when you observe pigs flying over the frozen surface of hell. I did, however, (jokingly) post that I'd like Wired to hire me as a consumer tech reviewer - purely so I could tell everyone to throw away their devices. twitter.com...
	1:52pm wendy del formaggio: It’s Mark Hurst!
	1:52pm wendy del formaggio: It’s Michael Jackson!
	1:52pm Yes: 😎
	1:53pm Destroit: It’s wonderful!
	1:54pm TimSF: Happy to hear this Michael Jackson. Loved the entire Thriller LP
	1:54pm Roberto: You're a vegetable.
	1:54pm Krys O.: You're a vegetable.....
	1:55pm Hydroplane: Yeah guys, Mark took the job at Metaverse, not Facebook. Bullet dodged!
	1:56pm iiibeat: I had a massive wedgie to start the show with, but I've been able to wiggle it free WHILE SiTTING DOWN during the course of selections played . . Many thanks to the DJ!!
	1:57pm TimSF: mamasaymamasaw
	1:57pm Stevel: Amazing song. Period.
	1:57pm Morphe': CHEESE - Wendy - ALLL All my fault ..had the site wrong = Cheese Sex Death .. (a bit egocentric as many a Blogs are, but worth a look) https://www.cheesesexdeath.com
	1:58pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I have never listened to Thriller in its entirely.
	1:58pm Morphe': Thans Pseu and all !!!
	2:00pm Gurldoggie: I admit I've never been the hippest person when it comes to pop music, but how could you have been alive in the 80's and unaware of Thriller??! It was literally EVERYWHERE.
	2:00pm Listener Robert: All right, it wasn't me, for a change!
	2:01pm drr: I just thought Thriller was a real downgrade from Off The Wall. Especially the title tune, one of his worst, to these ears.
	2:01pm Morphe': Lost in Space --- thought show was over ...59 MINS MORE!!!!
	2:01pm Krys O.: Funnily enough, Thriller came after the E.T. album. which came after a final Motown compilation to cash in on Off the Wall's success. I really loved OTW.
	2:02pm Pseu Braun: gurldoggie, I wasn't listening to any mainstream radio, nor where the people whose company I chose.
	2:04pm steveo: you're a buff-ay-eee
	2:04pm Krys O.: I was working at FMU as a college student when Thriller came in. If the station still has the original album that we received, it might have my handwriting on it.
	2:05pm JG: There are a million great Rod Stewart songs
	2:05pm prudy: Love this song...thanks Pseu
	2:05pm Hank from Wormburner: Wow. Haven't thought of this Rod Stewart song in ages. Always moves me to tears
	2:05pm Krys O.: Oooooh, Rod......Thanks, Pseu!
	2:05pm drr: ah, one of those great classic murder ballads
	2:06pm Paulie B: Just wanted to say how much I’m enjoying the show this afternoon!
	2:06pm Stevel: I want to say that I don't like this Rod Stewart song, but, I know every word, so I guess that's not a sustainable position.
	2:06pm ?: Pseu, my next request is… I was at library and told staff MJ died. They went “wha?”. Did Farrah Fawcett Majors die same day? She got eclipsed.
	2:06pm chris_in_space: Had to step out for the last two sets. Good to be here with y'all now.
	2:07pm herb.nyc: Oops, above is me
	2:07pm Krys O.: This song is tied in my brain with Elton's Song for Guy.
	2:07pm royvis: Beautiful show today, Pseu!
	2:07pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Love this song Pseu!
	2:08pm Gurldoggie: Fair enough. I mean no judgement BTW - in fact I'm impressed you managed to miss it. I never searched out Michael Jackson recordings myself, but with the TV on, attending occasional social gatherings, going shopping, I just found Thriller completely unavoidable.
	2:09pm Morphe': Boo Radleys (Band) .. is a direct Reference/Allusion to Harper Lee's To Kill A Mocking Bird .. (a good/great honest Anti-Racist book, being banned in many a us school district) ?????????????????????
	2:09pm unpopularfred: Don't let me own Georgie!!
	2:10pm unpopularfred: dammitt!! - Don't let me down Georgie!!
	2:10pm Morphe': Must to the market before closing = Madrid .. Thans Pseu and all and HAPPY BIRTHDAY KRYS O !!!!
	2:11pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Came for the hooks, stayed for the hooks
	2:11pm wendy del formaggio: This might be my favorite VU song. ❤️
	2:11pm wendy del formaggio: Happy birthday, Krys O! ❤️❤️❤️
	2:11pm chris_in_space: It's @Krys O's birthday? Hope it's a happy one, Krys!
	2:12pm Hank from Wormburner: Ambulance LTD did a great cover of this Velvets song. It was the closing track on their debut LP circa 2004
	2:12pm Pseu Braun: @iii happy to help unwedge yr ass
	2:12pm GR60: My favorite version of Ocean.
	2:12pm Dayffid: Hey Pseu and gang
	2:13pm wendy del formaggio: Especially that guitar sound…swoon…
	2:13pm TimSF: HB Krys O @Wendy: This might be the first time I recognize THREE artists in one Pseu set.
	2:13pm Gurldoggie: Such a great song. It gave me chills when it showed up at the end of the new VU documentary. Crazy that the Velvets never released it until the outtakes record!
	2:14pm wendy del formaggio: @TimSF: Hooray!
	2:15pm iiibeat: So sweet . .
	2:17pm Oregon bob: I love Faye Webster 👏🏼
	2:18pm Ryansterlingvirtue: amazing show so far today, Pseu!
	2:19pm Dayffid: Herb nyc - I liked your Mark Hurst/Facebook joke
	2:21pm Pseu Braun: Dayffid, startin' sh*t!
	2:21pm Morphe': Tim SF Phonetically ... "one Pseu set" Could be the anglicized name of a full on Thai/Alt Band = "one Pseu set" Phonetic = AN SU SET !!! Let us try ... 60% to Pseu 40% to you and I.. or 80% Pseu and 20% you and I = 10% you and 10% me... Electric and internet costs .. PSEU????
	2:21pm drr: The good Fandango is ZZ Top's Fandango.
	2:23pm Rev. Turnip Druid: PSSSSEEEEEEEEUUUUUUUUUUUuuuuuuuuu......
	2:25pm Dayffid: Pseu- it’s what I do. But it was funny
	2:25pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): The movie Fandango is pretty good too.
	2:27pm Roberto: At first I thought They Might be Giants. Then I realized They Must Be Giants.
	2:30pm drr: I was real surprised to find out about the Wipers, just happened recently.
	2:31pm Gerry from Miami: Always room for another song about the brontosaurus(renamed "apatosaurus" by the archaeological community). Loved the song honoring the giant lizard by the Move way back when.
	2:33pm Joey Joe Joe: I have heard Pseu ponder “who was he banging at the time” and my week feels complete.
	2:33pm Daybreak & Grades Are In: Pseu hitting us up with all the specifics… Ha ha ha
	2:33pm KWilde: Pseuperb
	2:33pm cs_sweetnsour: cackling the whole way thru this absolutely delightful dj speaks break. thanks for the uhh..informative levity
	2:34pm unpopularfred: getting to me!!
	2:36pm prudy: also the pandemic has prevented WFMU from accessing significant sources of revenue...
	2:39pm Gerry from Miami: Brett Harris has a little of the Harry Nilsson spirit in him. Nice!
	2:39pm Jett: You're usually quite good, my friend @Psue I could've been that music expert, but I remember Joy Division quite well! My strong points are from the 1940s to early 1990s
	2:40pm Jett: Typo: @Pseu
	2:43pm Krys O.: Golly! I was away from my desk and came back to see the birthday wishes. Thank you kindly. It's been rough at work with supply chain issues and the like, but your show helps to ease the angst, Pseu. Many heartfelt thanks for all you do for us listeners. xxxooo
	2:43pm drr: I thought this Julian Lennon was something brand new.
	2:44pm mrdonutsu: I was gonna say, that SHREDDING guitar in what is otherwise a MOR pop song — has to be the late 80s.
	2:44pm drr: Yeah, now it sounds like something off Thriller...
	2:49pm Fishtown Mike: Rocking the glockenspiel on this track. Bringing back some 80's memories.
	2:49pm TimSF: @Morphe' Thanks, was off the board for a bit. Interesting An Su Set
	2:54pm TimSF: @Roberto. @2.27 Last week sinner played Mighty Gospel Giants. I said "They Might Be Mighty Gospel Giants."
	2:55pm drr: "gift shop at the gun range, shooting at the mall" = star clicked
	2:57pm Fishtown Mike: Great show today Pseu, as usual!
	2:57pm Gurldoggie: Fun show today Pseu. Thanks for engaging!

	12:12pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: What is is about a freshly-opened can of Cafe Bustello that is so...life-changingly good?
	12:13pm Wolfgang Rajmann: I love LOVE. love from Berlin, Germany / Wolfgang
	12:13pm rich the greeb: @hydroplane as far as older stuff, I just got the Thumbs album and also a Sex Clark Five lp.

	12:14pm rich the greeb: I still haven’t had coffee yet and I’m already on my way to work 😬
	12:14pm royvis: Hey Pseu, hello all!
	12:18pm Hydroplane: Beans from Empire coffee in Hoboken, and a Bonavita BV1800TH coffee maker is my winning combo

	12:24pm Roberto: Dat rif doe.
	12:26pm Yes: :)
	12:30pm xtrakrispy: There's no mistaking Mercury Rev.
	12:30pm drr: xtrakrispy: i dunno, I came on here to see what Flaming Lips song this was.
	12:31pm rich the greeb: Lol dry
	12:31pm rich the greeb: *drr
	12:32pm Gurldoggie: Flaming Lips always sounds like they're making a joke. There's something so earnest about Mercury Rev.
	12:33pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: My usual cuppa these days is either one of the very excellent flavors from Bones Coffee Co, my Bustello, occasionally something from DeadSled Coffee, or yerba mate' made in my Mr. Coffee (the stuff is cheap so I just dump about a cup into the basket and let it drip).
	12:33pm xtrakrispy: @drr I can see that. Mark's voice has a slightly different lilt to it. And totally agree with @gurldoggie
	12:34pm Threemoons: And I just realized that even though I am going out to Mom for an extended Thanksgiving/Chanukkah weekend I still need to hit a store to pick up stuff for her. And I am out of milk, bread, and onions. Been a real cave troll lately.
	12:34pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Good afternoon Pseu! Siiiiii ! Café Bustelo @ Threemoons
	12:34pm rich the greeb: I dunno, I think “do you realize?” By the flaming lips is pretty earnest, but maybe I’m just a sucker.
	12:35pm Krys O.: Team Cafe Bustelo here too.
	12:35pm rich the greeb: I’m drinking Dunkin’ cold brew right now
	12:35pm Threemoons: I was too tired to cook last night, treated myself to sushi, but now I really do need to decontaminate and refill my fridge with at least the basics. Opened up a can of evap milk to have in my Bustello as I had less than a tablespoon of milk left...
	12:36pm drr: Wasnt a member of Mercury Rev producing the Flaming Lips records around that time? I think so.
	12:39pm People Like Us: hello!
	12:40pm drr: The Rain Parade sounded great on these lil' computer speakers I'm listening on.
	12:40pm Mike From Brooklyn: Hello Pseu & listeners! BJM & Mercury Rev tickets for Brooklyn Steel, March 28 go on sale at the same time: Tomorrow 10 am.
	12:44pm Pseu Braun: Thanks Mike! JC locals: wl.seetickets.us...
	12:45pm jeff sherin: mercury rev rocked at a looapaloozain mpls. early 90"s. outside stage. thanks for playing them!
	12:45pm Will the Sound Guy: Hi Pseu and all!!! Been vibing with the tunes on my lunch break!
	12:50pm Fishtown Mike: Great show, Pseu! I was on the fence getting tix to Mercury Rev in Phila, but you've convinced me.
	12:57pm Krys O.: Hey, Vicki! Theme from a Summer Place is playing in the production department at work and it makes me think of you. :)
	12:57pm Hydroplane: Cool moody vibes on this one so far
	12:58pm People Like Us: yay Krys :)
	1:00pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): great set Pseu!!!!!
	1:01pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): hey peeps!
	1:06pm Gurldoggie: Here in the great northwest we sneer at your canned corporate coffee. In the immortal paraphrase of Patrick Henry "Give us artisan grown hand-roasted beans, or give us more sleep!"
	1:07pm judy from croton: Hi from a sunny side of the Hudson River
	1:08pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: We buy espresso beans in a 3 pound bag from an Albuquerque company in Albuqeuerque in Sams Club. Is THAT too corporate Gurldoggie? It tastes pretty good freshly ground!
	1:08pm Threemoons: Milk is good for you! Calcium is key.
	1:09pm judy from croton: I can’t pick up fmu from the radio anymore. It saddens me greatly and pisses me off greatly.
	1:09pm Hydroplane: No corporate coffee for me in Hoboken! Where's my pat on the back?
	1:10pm Threemoons: I like Greek Frappes with only a splash of half n half, no sugar. They pronounce it "Frapp" not "Frappay"
	1:10pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): coffee is life
	1:10pm Threemoons: @judy tune in online
	1:11pm Pseu Braun: Threemoons, been to Greece, they say "Frappay" sorry.
	1:11pm Krys O.: I get my calcium from Greek yogurt in my overnight oats, but I put oat milk in my coffee when I'm home. I drink it black at work. And it can not be too hot. Sorry, just a wee bit warmer than room temperature is my preference for coffee. Also can not tolerate sugar in my coffee. Blech.
	1:11pm Pseu Braun: But FRAAAP sounds more like a fart so...
	1:12pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: I used to hang out with a dude that said "furrrrp".
	1:13pm judy from croton: Without a steady stream of fmu I say horrible but heartfelt things to close friends. Yes. The FU thing.
	1:14pm Roberto: Open in the next browser tab to the right: "Why Do Cats Put Their Butt in Your Face?"
	1:14pm judy from croton: Forgive me father for I have sinned
	1:16pm Morphe': Pseu with a Shiv
	1:16pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): Ok, who fraappd?
	1:17pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Krys O: What is overnight oats?
	1:17pm Listening Out There: Tapping toes over here...
	1:19pm judy from croton: I tune in online at home but new phone complications stymying me
	1:20pm Little Danny: killin' it pseu
	1:20pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Nada Surf would kinda go with this.
	1:22pm Morphe': Judy - @1:14 judy from croton: "Forgive me father for I have sinned .." IT HAS BEEN 48 years since my last confession exCatholic sexually abused boy here .. Overcome... I worry for those who carry baggage.. Safe Home Port all ... near or far ..
	1:24pm Krys O.: @Woods: Mixing the dry oats with fixin's and a moist carrier like yogurt or a milky product, then putting them in the fridge to set overnight. Voila! Ready to eat for breakfast by morning. Similar concept to cold brew.
	1:27pm unpopularfred: Here in Massachusetts we say "frap", but we mean "milkshake"
	1:27pm Mike Sin: Really enjoying the show today! Was listening outside for a bit on this "Spring" day, but then some dude moseyed by with a leaf blower so I had to bail. Back inside cranking it up!
	1:28pm Morphe': Judy/All- Catholic Confession normally in the 1960s-70s, confession we spoke in days "Bless me Father for I have sinned it has been XXXX days since my last confession.." My new =not happening confession would say : "Bless me Father for I have sinned it has been 17,520.00 days since my last confession.." Safe out and safe home all .. to the shops...
	1:28pm Krys O.: Wikipedia has one pronunciation, but I'd go with what Pseu heard in Greece.
	1:29pm wendy del formaggio: Hi Pseu! Hi Krys O! I’m working and lurking and enjoying the show. ❤️
	1:29pm judy from croton: Thank you morphe
	1:29pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: ...or some Velvet Crush? This reminds me its been a couple months since I went to confesion. My mens group was discussing hell and sin the other morning at 6am...
	1:30pm Krys O.: The French word means hit or strike. There is some division on the French too.
	1:31pm judy from croton: A touch of perspective is helpful; I needed that
	1:31pm wendy del formaggio: Also, hi to everyone else. I’m not scrolling up right now so I can’t see you.
	1:32pm Krys O.: Hello, Wendy!
	1:32pm Hydroplane: boo radleys sans martin carr :(
	1:32pm Morphe': Wendy - heard on NPR which Ya probably know : Sex Drugs and Cheese???
	1:33pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): I have to take a frappe.
	1:33pm Threemoons: The Greek shop owners near me all say "Frapp"
	1:34pm Threemoons: As long as you get your beverage the way you like it...
	1:34pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Car radios are more sensitive than house radios sometimes...maybe you can drive and get it?
	1:34pm steveo: comment frapplez vous?
	1:35pm Morphe': Boo Radleys - once again .. TO KILL A Mocking Bird is being banned??????? https://bannedbooks.library.cmu.edu/harper-lee-to-kill-a-mockingbird/
	1:37pm Morphe': Wendy - I did not mean NPR ya know NPR .... I meant the website: Sex Drugs and Cheese???
	1:37pm wendy del formaggio: Hi Morphe’: I know nothing about NPR. Ok, slight exaggeration, but I do not partake in that network.
	1:38pm Glistener MW: “that sounds like a dare!!!” - Mark Hurst
	1:38pm TVP: I prefer big wireless BOSE headphones myself.
	1:39pm Destroit: Hooo boy i dipped in here at a weird time. Dbl napkins n such. It’s been awhile, hello Pseu and all.
	1:41pm Gurldoggie: I'm excited for yet another opportunity to give the Beatles my money.
	1:41pm herb.nyc: Wired magazine just said mark hurst got hired by Facebook. And that he’s gonna be asking us to return our “forget Facebook” tees. Wow.
	1:42pm Hydroplane: what are we trying to understand
	1:42pm Morphe': Wendy - I did not mean NPR ya know NPR .... I meant the website: Honest inarticulate email .. of course ya know NPR.. I meant the website: Sex Drugs and Cheese??? something as such !!!
	1:42pm Little Danny: i'd assumed the double napkins thing was due to the general messiness of eating thanksgiving food thusly requiring two napkins?
	1:42pm Mike Sin: As a BeatlesGeek who actually listened to every minute of the "30 Days" bootleg chronicling everything recorded that month of January 1969. I can honestly report that the overwhelming feeling is not fun or hatred or strife. It's actually boredom. But, it all picks up when Preston joins up and they move the proceedings to Apple studios.
	1:43pm wendy del formaggio: Morphe’: Hmm. No. You’re the first to mention it to me. I’m still stuck on the ol’ Tumblr site, “Cheese People,” which I highly recommend to anyone in need of a giggling fit. Which could be ALL OF YOUSE!
	1:43pm drr: herb.nyc: really? same guy?
	1:44pm Pseu Braun: herb, doubtful. provide proof
	1:44pm Ryansterlingvirtue: great song. Thanks, Pseu!
	1:44pm herb.nyc: drr- not really. (Really)
	1:45pm drr: wendy del formaggio: that site is what the internet is for. It's what the creators envisioned.
	1:46pm Fox: I was in the bath. Did I miss all the conversation about dairy? I am trying to find dairy from not miserable cows. Does such a thing exist?
	1:46pm Krys O.: Are we talking pizzeria napkin thickness or 2-ply Kleenex paper towels? One might think one is saving money with a 1-ply thin napkin, but you end up using more to compensate.
	1:46pm Pseu Braun: OK, stop spreading lies herb. Not cool.
	1:47pm Krys O.: BTW-I took a walk outside the office to peep the driveway mailbox and it is lovely outside in these parts. Real Feel is 68 degrees Fahrenheit.
	1:48pm wendy del formaggio: drr: Yes. “Cheese People” has pleased the gods and goddesses for sure.
	1:48pm Yes: fun pond track
	1:48pm Fishtown Mike: Hey now, one person's fake news is another persons lies. Maybe Herb was planning to spread that until it became true.
	1:48pm Mark Hurst: Hi all!
	1:49pm herb.nyc: Very sorry, Pseu. I was making (bad) joke; I thought the tee remark would be the tell. I’ll be more careful in future.
	1:49pm Destroit: Lol hi Mark!
	1:51pm Pseu Braun: herb, MJ goin' out to you
	1:52pm Krys O.: There are bad jokes and then there's libel.
	1:52pm Mark Hurst: You'll know I've taken a job at Facebook when you observe pigs flying over the frozen surface of hell. I did, however, (jokingly) post that I'd like Wired to hire me as a consumer tech reviewer - purely so I could tell everyone to throw away their devices. twitter.com...
	1:52pm wendy del formaggio: It’s Mark Hurst!
	1:52pm wendy del formaggio: It’s Michael Jackson!
	1:52pm Yes: 😎
	1:53pm Destroit: It’s wonderful!
	1:54pm TimSF: Happy to hear this Michael Jackson. Loved the entire Thriller LP
	1:54pm Roberto: You're a vegetable.
	1:54pm Krys O.: You're a vegetable.....
	1:55pm Hydroplane: Yeah guys, Mark took the job at Metaverse, not Facebook. Bullet dodged!
	1:56pm iiibeat: I had a massive wedgie to start the show with, but I've been able to wiggle it free WHILE SiTTING DOWN during the course of selections played . . Many thanks to the DJ!!
	1:57pm TimSF: mamasaymamasaw
	1:57pm Stevel: Amazing song. Period.
	1:57pm Morphe': CHEESE - Wendy - ALLL All my fault ..had the site wrong = Cheese Sex Death .. (a bit egocentric as many a Blogs are, but worth a look) https://www.cheesesexdeath.com
	1:58pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I have never listened to Thriller in its entirely.
	1:58pm Morphe': Thans Pseu and all !!!
	2:00pm Gurldoggie: I admit I've never been the hippest person when it comes to pop music, but how could you have been alive in the 80's and unaware of Thriller??! It was literally EVERYWHERE.
	2:00pm Listener Robert: All right, it wasn't me, for a change!
	2:01pm drr: I just thought Thriller was a real downgrade from Off The Wall. Especially the title tune, one of his worst, to these ears.
	2:01pm Morphe': Lost in Space --- thought show was over ...59 MINS MORE!!!!
	2:01pm Krys O.: Funnily enough, Thriller came after the E.T. album. which came after a final Motown compilation to cash in on Off the Wall's success. I really loved OTW.
	2:02pm Pseu Braun: gurldoggie, I wasn't listening to any mainstream radio, nor where the people whose company I chose.
	2:04pm steveo: you're a buff-ay-eee
	2:04pm Krys O.: I was working at FMU as a college student when Thriller came in. If the station still has the original album that we received, it might have my handwriting on it.
	2:05pm JG: There are a million great Rod Stewart songs
	2:05pm prudy: Love this song...thanks Pseu
	2:05pm Hank from Wormburner: Wow. Haven't thought of this Rod Stewart song in ages. Always moves me to tears
	2:05pm Krys O.: Oooooh, Rod......Thanks, Pseu!
	2:05pm drr: ah, one of those great classic murder ballads
	2:06pm Paulie B: Just wanted to say how much I’m enjoying the show this afternoon!
	2:06pm Stevel: I want to say that I don't like this Rod Stewart song, but, I know every word, so I guess that's not a sustainable position.
	2:06pm ?: Pseu, my next request is… I was at library and told staff MJ died. They went “wha?”. Did Farrah Fawcett Majors die same day? She got eclipsed.
	2:06pm chris_in_space: Had to step out for the last two sets. Good to be here with y'all now.
	2:07pm herb.nyc: Oops, above is me
	2:07pm Krys O.: This song is tied in my brain with Elton's Song for Guy.
	2:07pm royvis: Beautiful show today, Pseu!
	2:07pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Love this song Pseu!
	2:08pm Gurldoggie: Fair enough. I mean no judgement BTW - in fact I'm impressed you managed to miss it. I never searched out Michael Jackson recordings myself, but with the TV on, attending occasional social gatherings, going shopping, I just found Thriller completely unavoidable.
	2:09pm Morphe': Boo Radleys (Band) .. is a direct Reference/Allusion to Harper Lee's To Kill A Mocking Bird .. (a good/great honest Anti-Racist book, being banned in many a us school district) ?????????????????????
	2:09pm unpopularfred: Don't let me own Georgie!!
	2:10pm unpopularfred: dammitt!! - Don't let me down Georgie!!
	2:10pm Morphe': Must to the market before closing = Madrid .. Thans Pseu and all and HAPPY BIRTHDAY KRYS O !!!!
	2:11pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Came for the hooks, stayed for the hooks
	2:11pm wendy del formaggio: This might be my favorite VU song. ❤️
	2:11pm wendy del formaggio: Happy birthday, Krys O! ❤️❤️❤️
	2:11pm chris_in_space: It's @Krys O's birthday? Hope it's a happy one, Krys!
	2:12pm Hank from Wormburner: Ambulance LTD did a great cover of this Velvets song. It was the closing track on their debut LP circa 2004
	2:12pm Pseu Braun: @iii happy to help unwedge yr ass
	2:12pm GR60: My favorite version of Ocean.
	2:12pm Dayffid: Hey Pseu and gang
	2:13pm wendy del formaggio: Especially that guitar sound…swoon…
	2:13pm TimSF: HB Krys O @Wendy: This might be the first time I recognize THREE artists in one Pseu set.
	2:13pm Gurldoggie: Such a great song. It gave me chills when it showed up at the end of the new VU documentary. Crazy that the Velvets never released it until the outtakes record!
	2:14pm wendy del formaggio: @TimSF: Hooray!
	2:15pm iiibeat: So sweet . .
	2:17pm Oregon bob: I love Faye Webster 👏🏼
	2:18pm Ryansterlingvirtue: amazing show so far today, Pseu!
	2:19pm Dayffid: Herb nyc - I liked your Mark Hurst/Facebook joke
	2:21pm Pseu Braun: Dayffid, startin' sh*t!
	2:21pm Morphe': Tim SF Phonetically ... "one Pseu set" Could be the anglicized name of a full on Thai/Alt Band = "one Pseu set" Phonetic = AN SU SET !!! Let us try ... 60% to Pseu 40% to you and I.. or 80% Pseu and 20% you and I = 10% you and 10% me... Electric and internet costs .. PSEU????
	2:21pm drr: The good Fandango is ZZ Top's Fandango.
	2:23pm Rev. Turnip Druid: PSSSSEEEEEEEEUUUUUUUUUUUuuuuuuuuu......
	2:25pm Dayffid: Pseu- it’s what I do. But it was funny
	2:25pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): The movie Fandango is pretty good too.
	2:27pm Roberto: At first I thought They Might be Giants. Then I realized They Must Be Giants.
	2:30pm drr: I was real surprised to find out about the Wipers, just happened recently.
	2:31pm Gerry from Miami: Always room for another song about the brontosaurus(renamed "apatosaurus" by the archaeological community). Loved the song honoring the giant lizard by the Move way back when.
	2:33pm Joey Joe Joe: I have heard Pseu ponder “who was he banging at the time” and my week feels complete.
	2:33pm Daybreak & Grades Are In: Pseu hitting us up with all the specifics… Ha ha ha
	2:33pm KWilde: Pseuperb
	2:33pm cs_sweetnsour: cackling the whole way thru this absolutely delightful dj speaks break. thanks for the uhh..informative levity
	2:34pm unpopularfred: getting to me!!
	2:36pm prudy: also the pandemic has prevented WFMU from accessing significant sources of revenue...
	2:39pm Gerry from Miami: Brett Harris has a little of the Harry Nilsson spirit in him. Nice!
	2:39pm Jett: You're usually quite good, my friend @Psue I could've been that music expert, but I remember Joy Division quite well! My strong points are from the 1940s to early 1990s
	2:40pm Jett: Typo: @Pseu
	2:43pm Krys O.: Golly! I was away from my desk and came back to see the birthday wishes. Thank you kindly. It's been rough at work with supply chain issues and the like, but your show helps to ease the angst, Pseu. Many heartfelt thanks for all you do for us listeners. xxxooo
	2:43pm drr: I thought this Julian Lennon was something brand new.
	2:44pm mrdonutsu: I was gonna say, that SHREDDING guitar in what is otherwise a MOR pop song — has to be the late 80s.
	2:44pm drr: Yeah, now it sounds like something off Thriller...
	2:49pm Fishtown Mike: Rocking the glockenspiel on this track. Bringing back some 80's memories.
	2:49pm TimSF: @Morphe' Thanks, was off the board for a bit. Interesting An Su Set
	2:54pm TimSF: @Roberto. @2.27 Last week sinner played Mighty Gospel Giants. I said "They Might Be Mighty Gospel Giants."
