	10:06am The Oscar: I've told this story before, but maybe 10 years ago I attended a "surrealist parlor game night" at the Somerville Arts Center hosted by Roger Miller. I assumed he was just like the local celebrity host they roped in, but apparently this was a passion project of his; he mostly just went from table to table seeing how everyone was enjoying the games. It was one of my favorite Boston cultural moments.

	10:06am alan the painter: ...back to woik, luff u sound BIG!

	10:11am Yetz: ↳ The Oscar @10:06 saw MoB many times during my college years as well as various side projects like Birdsongs and No Man. Roger Miller is so creative and interesting and also a pretty down-to-earth guy considering

	10:17am Ali B in Orange NJ: Crime town is soooo gooood. There’s another one the same team put out called Mogul about the rise of hip hop & wealth.
	10:18am TVP: Duke Farms in Hillsborough is awesome.
	10:19am Marley P. Dogg: I care about jazz. John Allen cares about jazz.
	10:19am Webhamster Henry: If the USA only had states the size of Rhode Island, there would be roughly 8100 states.
	10:19am Yetz: what, a new Makaya McCraven record? Still digesting "In These Times". He is so good! Is this on vinyl? Will definitely get in the running for this

	10:22am alan the painter: did u dance at the risdy tap? TURN IT UP!
	10:22am melinda: hi friends
	10:22am Yetz: ↳ TDK60 @10:22 British slang for sausage
	10:22am tenacious_bird_of_prey: Six Finger Satellite! I still have a few 7"s from them. The Juan MacLean is a fav of mine as well.
	10:23am tim from washington: ↳ Yetz @10:20 Chicago is a world class jazz city and the jazz scene is so accessible!
	10:24am Trouble: @alan: i dj'ed at the tap room RISD

	10:25am Yetz: ↳ tim from washington @10:23 It's true, one of the reasons I stay here! I know one of the guys who started International Anthem and it's been great watching that label take off and be so successful. I've got a separate IA section on my record shelf.
	10:26am Yetz: but Makaya's latest is on Blue Note which is why I did not know about it! :-)
	10:26am tenacious_bird_of_prey: If you google "Joey Quits" that happened at the Masonic Temple in Providence, RI next to the capitol building. It became the hotel. they renovated after it sat empty for 80 years.

	10:45am alan the painter: ...ha ha ha

	10:52am Zipperhead7: ↳ Marley P. Dogg @10:50 I believe there was a big tug of war with WFUV over alleged interference by WFMU. Basically, WFUV was doing a land grab
	10:52am Handy Haversack: So great to meet you on Monday, Trouble! Yetz! Marley!
	10:53am Karl Ward: There's a sports team in New England?
	10:53am unpopularfred: ↳ Marley P. Dogg @10:50 people who have been brainwashed into thinking certain music is the only good music and all else must be abolished, that's who
	10:53am Karl Ward: [ducks]
	10:54am Yetz: ok I did not win the Makaya McCraven LP but I am still a winner because I donated

	11:02am Dance the Blues: ↳ Song: "it takes two" by "rob base & d.j. e-z rock" Dance floor classic
	11:02am Yetz: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @10:58 That Miley Chicken GIF is truly disturbing (esp. when I click on it and see it in its full-size glory). Congratulations.
	11:02am winston legthigh: dance new jersey!
	11:03am Marie: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @11:02 Huh, neat. I don't know why but I find that word "spatula" funny
	11:03am Zipperhead7: ↳ Song: "it takes two" by "rob base & d.j. e-z rock" I saw Prince do this live as part of his "Baby I'm a Star" medley. It was great!
	11:03am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ Yetz @11:02 Yeah. It's creepy and I don't remember where I found it.
	11:05am Marie: ↳ winston legthigh @11:02 dance NOW
	11:06am Andres: ↳ Song: "hey you woman" by "michel polanareff" Verse has a Steve Miller - Space Cowboy vibe.
	11:09am winston legthigh: ↳ Marie @11:03 spatula is a funny werd.
	11:10am Chris Hiatt: Phone it in to support not phoning it in!
	11:11am Zipperhead7: A warning! I sent an essay to PopMatters and they agreed to publish it (no payment, of course), Yesterday I find an essay on the same subject AFTER they agreed to publish mine. No response from them. It's maddening. AVOID!!!
	11:13am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ winston legthigh @11:09 National Geographic says "The origin of the word spatula is found in the Greek word spathe and the Latin word spatha". As kids, my sister and I studied Latin because my parents thought it'd help with English. I don't remember much of it.
	11:14am Marie: ↳ winston legthigh @11:09 Yeah, I have to admit, I did acid a long time ago and somebody was being a total goofball with a spatula and it was hilarious
	11:15am Roberto: ↳ Marley P. Dogg @10:50 Is that baby Icepack?
	11:15am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @11:15 Oops sorry Marley

	11:20am WoodsOfMaine: KO-HOG
	11:21am still b/p: "Pissah" -- spoken alllll over the place when we were kids on South Shore.
	11:21am Yetz: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @11:13 I really enjoy Latin/Greek word roots. Knowing just a little of these "dead languages" gives so much insight into English - e.g. "jectere", Latin for "to throw", gives us "deject" (throw down), "inject" (throw in), "reject" (throw back), "project" (throw forward), "subject" (throw under), etc. etc. I'll stop now.
	11:21am hilaryprudy: I'm a proud pottymouth but I never used the word "pissah", if it's a word...
	11:22am attis: whicked pissah
	11:22am Stu: Steve's Steakhouse in Hasbrouck Heights has filet mignon tips!

	11:22am efd: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:20 I agree with WoodsOfMaine on this. That’s what I always heard on the Cape in the summahtime.
	11:22am WoodsOfMaine: My wife's fam is from Rhode Island and they said ho-hog...but they're from Aquidneck Island
	11:22am RVA: Cerrillos NM! I heard a pledge from Magdalena this week. Silver City here. New Mexico loves WFMU
	11:23am hilaryprudy: yep, co-hawg...
	11:24am Meghan: ↳ Stu @11:22 No way! I am intrigued if they are real....
	11:24am WoodsOfMaine: Also, don't order oysters at dinner in Iowa.
	11:24am Meghan: ↳ unpopularfred @11:20 The Nine's as it was called around us
	11:24am Yetz: ↳ RVA @11:22 So beautiful out your way! Have visited a few times, driving Albuquerque to Santa Fe, I want to go back there soon!
	11:25am still b/p: ↳ melinda @11:20 Ha - Heard that, too. Was probably Lubec, melinda. ..speaking of regional pronuncamications.
	11:25am kevlicki: Trouble- there are three varieties of clam chowder, but chowdah-heads can come from anywhere!
	11:25am Trouble: true@kevlicki!
	11:26am Marie: ↳ Yetz @11:21 I've always thought I would like to study Latin, but really wouldn't have the time unless I didn't have to werk/work/verk?
	11:27am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ still b/p @11:25 Heck, Lubec is practically in Greenland. Ha.
	11:27am Yetz: ↳ Marie @11:26 I've never studied Greek or Latin "properly", more just a hobby I dabble in sometimes
	11:28am Ken From Hyde Park: By the way, either of you DJs have PSDS?
	11:29am hilaryprudy: Love stuffies!
	11:29am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ Yetz @11:21 I barely remember anything. I did Latin from years 9 to 11. We never learnt the real swear words. I do remember: furcifer = "scoundrel" caudex = "blockhead"
	11:29am The Oscar: I'm still reeling from the fact that the rest of the country doesn't have steak tips!
	11:30am winston legthigh: ↳ Stu @11:22 steve's steakhouse rules. as more and more old diners and restaurants disappear it is a treasure.
	11:32am winston legthigh: ↳ The Oscar @11:29 the iron horse in ormond beach has steak tips for bike week which i will be gnawing on this evening.
	11:35am Yetz: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @11:29 Interesting. "Furcifer" = "furca" + "ifer". "Furca" is cognate with "fork" and "ifer" means "bearing" (like Lucifer, light-bearer). Literally "furcifer" is "yoke-bearer" or "slave" - from there metaphorically to "scoundrel". (No I did not know all that, I looked it up).
	11:36am deepwoodsquébec: yo chuis là, salut à vous d deepwoods québec
	11:37am still b/p: More steak, MA and North Shore miscellany: Who else can't drive by the Hilltop Route 1 location with big familiar vestigial cactus in Saugus without still having a quick active think about the history before it was closed/converted, and who else always heard that in spite of its long renown and permanent long waiting lines, it wasn't very good?
	11:37am Yetz: ↳ Yetz @11:35 (and also a species of chameleon, hmm)
	11:37am Andres: Deepwoods accent? Ouch. A beautiful province and people.
	11:37am winston legthigh: thanks everybody, im off to lunch. happy marathon!
	11:40am DjLorraine: ↳ winston legthigh @11:32 I've been to that iron horse 1x
	11:42am Trouble: deep woods, to me, is not a slur@ andres, it just refers to being surrounded by nature
	11:43am morphe': Thanks T & M & Vols and all !!!!
	11:44am deepwoodsquébec: en tout seriousness, there is a long history of french people and anglophones denigrating the québec accent as backwards/hick/whatev, and there's some pretty clear contempt toward the mostly lower-class french speakers behind that. not that we can't take a joke, but something to be aware of.
	11:45am Yetz: ↳ still b/p @11:37 I used to drive past that place in the 80s and 90s when it was still very much open. I was vegetarian at the time, and probably wouldn't have gone there anyhow. I remember the giant cactus.
	11:46am melinda: I like the Quebec accent
	11:46am Handy Haversack: And back! How we doing?
	11:47am Marie: The whole concept of "accent" is a little questionable--depends on how you define the standard that is being accented from... or something like that
	11:48am Yetz: ↳ Marie @11:47 everyone has an accent, there is no 'standard'.
	11:48am SeaCreature: Lenny the Quahog was my favorite criminal nickname, speaking of Mass.
	11:49am Marie: ↳ Yetz @11:48 then the concept of accent is....?
	11:49am Webhamster Henry: I'm from West Hartford, CT, home of Noah Webster, so, I have the received American English pronunciation.
	11:49am Yetz: ↳ Marie @11:49 Just like everyone has a hair color
	11:49am Wendy: Why haven't I heard any discussions about Rhide Island's Autocrat coffee syrup?
	11:49am Yetz: (unless they are bald)
	11:50am Yetz: there are a few accents that get special preference, like the "Recieved Pronunciation" in the UK and newscaster-talk in the USA. But those are still accents.
	11:51am dei xhrist: Pledge 4 lifer & Na'Hampsha-ite checking from the road
	11:51am unpopularfred: is someone calling from their Jeep?
	11:53am Mick: Have not been able to chat much lately, but sending love to Trouble and Meghan and all of WFMU land!! [FWIW, I've lived in 4 - count 'em: 4 - states in New England at one time or another]
	11:53am Handy Haversack: Power move!!!
	11:54am Yetz: "Every single American has an accent. For those who have lived in one part of the country and then moved somewhere else only to be told they have an accent, this is great news. For a while, people described the accent from Northeastern Ohio as "standard American," and the Midwestern accent was ascribed the title "General American." But at some point, maybe during the immigration patterns of the 1950s, people shifted, and the Midwest accent changed." - www.travelandleisure.com...
	11:54am Hugo (NL): Meghan? 🌟
	11:54am Marie: ↳ Song: "west end girls" by "pet shop boys" Have you no shame, Trouble? (luv it)
	11:54am Yetz: ↳ Yetz @11:54 (having lived in NJ, Brooklyn, Boston and Chicago I can attest this is true)
	11:55am Magenta: As someone who did a summer program at Brown and went to college outside of Boston, I'm loving all the New England talk!
	11:55am Karl Ward: ↳ Song: "west end girls" by "pet shop boys" Not just a banger, also an interesting composition. My friend Ben Morss wrote an article about "West End Girls" and its unusual chord progression: benmorss.com...
	11:55am Magenta: ↳ Magenta @11:55 And here, "outside of Boston" is not a code for Harvard.
	11:55am Yetz: ↳ Yetz @11:54 (one year in Providence too)
	11:55am Peter in SEA: Ha ha, Trouble taught me to love this song that was on 24/7 in London pubs in 1986!
	11:55am unpopularfred: who wouldn't want to dance to Joe Battan?
	11:56am TDK60: Merci, DJs Trouble & Meghan!
	11:56am A. Bee: This song never gets old, thank you for pulling out this power move.
	11:57am Hugo (NL): Just tuned in. Looks like a starpacked show. Thanks trouble and Meghan. Will listen back in the archives
	11:58am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Trouble & Meghan. (The PSDS gag from before was about "pierced ears," spoken with an accent.)
	11:59am Magenta: Thanks, Meghan and Trouble!
	11:59am StringOFperils: Clam chowder taxonomy, rural Quebecois, and the Pet Shop Boys...and a simple cake worthy of Wayne Thiebaud's more complex cakes; this show has it all! So...maybe make a pledge [here]
	11:59am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Trouble, Meghan, phone peeps, food peeps, expired Peeps, fresh Peeps, and all! Keep anticapitalisting! WFMU 5EVA!
	11:59am still b/p: Interesting Harvard Square timeline/change perspective, written more than a decade ago, looking back a couple decades further. www.harvardmagazine.com...
	6:45pm ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: ↳ Song: "wavy" by "terror danjah" Lovely groove

This Is The Modern World with Trouble: Playlist from March 9, 2023

View Trouble's profile

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

	10:06am The Oscar: I've told this story before, but maybe 10 years ago I attended a "surrealist parlor game night" at the Somerville Arts Center hosted by Roger Miller. I assumed he was just like the local celebrity host they roped in, but apparently this was a passion project of his; he mostly just went from table to table seeing how everyone was enjoying the games. It was one of my favorite Boston cultural moments.

	10:06am alan the painter: ...back to woik, luff u sound BIG!

	10:11am StringOFperils: I only saw Birdsongs of the Mesozoic. And almost no one was there. Silly people.
	10:11am Yetz: ↳ The Oscar @10:06 saw MoB many times during my college years as well as various side projects like Birdsongs and No Man. Roger Miller is so creative and interesting and also a pretty down-to-earth guy considering

	10:15am Yetz: used to go to the The Custom House Tavern but I don't think it exists any more.
	10:17am Ali B in Orange NJ: Crime town is soooo gooood. There’s another one the same team put out called Mogul about the rise of hip hop & wealth.
	10:18am TVP: Duke Farms in Hillsborough is awesome.
	10:19am Marley P. Dogg: I care about jazz. John Allen cares about jazz.
	10:19am Webhamster Henry: If the USA only had states the size of Rhode Island, there would be roughly 8100 states.

	10:21am G: ↳ Webhamster Henry @10:19 RI was a breakoff from Massachusetts, just like Delaware was a breakoff from PA.
	10:22am TDK60: I embarrassingly missed when "banger" entered the lexicon.
	10:22am alan the painter: did u dance at the risdy tap? TURN IT UP!

	10:43am Handy Haversack: The dog and I have to tear ourselves away to run some errands. Making this bird check before we go. Thanks, Trouble, Meghan, and all the Troubled pledgers! Sending money to WFMU is the most anticapitalist thing you'll do today! So do it a bunch!
	10:45am Yetz: ↳ Yetz @10:27 tim - they recorded 2 LPs for IA, did you hear the more recent one "Now"?

	10:51am Daybreak, just Daybreak: Whenever I open up my WFMU app and hear something I don't like, I immediately click on the "streams" button in the upper right hand corner to see what's happening on the other 3(!!!????!!!) streams

	10:51am Daybreak, just Daybreak: Love Mr. Postman!
	10:52am Zipperhead7: ↳ Marley P. Dogg @10:50 I believe there was a big tug of war with WFUV over alleged interference by WFMU. Basically, WFUV was doing a land grab
	10:52am Handy Haversack: So great to meet you on Monday, Trouble! Yetz! Marley!
	10:53am Karl Ward: There's a sports team in New England?
	10:53am unpopularfred: ↳ Marley P. Dogg @10:50 people who have been brainwashed into thinking certain music is the only good music and all else must be abolished, that's who

	10:58am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): Hey everyone!
	11:00am Marie: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @10:58 Hey. I appreciate your new name @)
	11:01am Magenta: I love the soundbites with your son, Trouble!
	11:01am Andres: ↳ Song: "it takes two" by "rob base & d.j. e-z rock" GOAT contender!
	11:02am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ Marie @11:00 Ha ha! It's kind of old. Many marathons ago, Liz Berg was giving out nicknames for pledges.
	11:02am Dance the Blues: ↳ Song: "it takes two" by "rob base & d.j. e-z rock" Dance floor classic
	11:02am Yetz: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @10:58 That Miley Chicken GIF is truly disturbing (esp. when I click on it and see it in its full-size glory). Congratulations.
	11:02am winston legthigh: dance new jersey!
	11:03am Marie: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @11:02 Huh, neat. I don't know why but I find that word "spatula" funny
	11:03am Zipperhead7: ↳ Song: "it takes two" by "rob base & d.j. e-z rock" I saw Prince do this live as part of his "Baby I'm a Star" medley. It was great!
	11:03am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ Yetz @11:02 Yeah. It's creepy and I don't remember where I found it.
	11:05am Marie: ↳ winston legthigh @11:02 dance NOW
	11:06am Andres: ↳ Song: "hey you woman" by "michel polanareff" Verse has a Steve Miller - Space Cowboy vibe.
	11:09am winston legthigh: ↳ Marie @11:03 spatula is a funny werd.
	11:10am Chris Hiatt: Phone it in to support not phoning it in!
	11:11am Zipperhead7: A warning! I sent an essay to PopMatters and they agreed to publish it (no payment, of course), Yesterday I find an essay on the same subject AFTER they agreed to publish mine. No response from them. It's maddening. AVOID!!!
	11:13am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ winston legthigh @11:09 National Geographic says "The origin of the word spatula is found in the Greek word spathe and the Latin word spatha". As kids, my sister and I studied Latin because my parents thought it'd help with English. I don't remember much of it.
	11:14am Marie: ↳ winston legthigh @11:09 Yeah, I have to admit, I did acid a long time ago and somebody was being a total goofball with a spatula and it was hilarious
	11:15am Roberto: ↳ Marley P. Dogg @10:50 Is that baby Icepack?
	11:15am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @11:15 Oops sorry Marley
	11:17am Marie: Trouble, Congrats to you and your son, and whole fambly on your boy graduating from college!
	11:17am unpopularfred: It's high level uselessness, though
	11:18am winston legthigh: so much to learn about the mundane spatula. the food network ain't got nothin on the woof moo.
	11:20am unpopularfred: steak tips come from the 99
	11:20am melinda: Lubbock, Maine?
	11:20am WoodsOfMaine: KO-HOG
	11:21am still b/p: "Pissah" -- spoken alllll over the place when we were kids on South Shore.
	11:21am Yetz: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @11:13 I really enjoy Latin/Greek word roots. Knowing just a little of these "dead languages" gives so much insight into English - e.g. "jectere", Latin for "to throw", gives us "deject" (throw down), "inject" (throw in), "reject" (throw back), "project" (throw forward), "subject" (throw under), etc. etc. I'll stop now.
	11:21am hilaryprudy: I'm a proud pottymouth but I never used the word "pissah", if it's a word...
	11:22am attis: whicked pissah
	11:22am Stu: Steve's Steakhouse in Hasbrouck Heights has filet mignon tips!
	11:22am Yetz: ↳ still b/p @11:21 usually combined with "wicked"
	11:22am efd: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:20 I agree with WoodsOfMaine on this. That’s what I always heard on the Cape in the summahtime.
	11:22am WoodsOfMaine: My wife's fam is from Rhode Island and they said ho-hog...but they're from Aquidneck Island
	11:22am RVA: Cerrillos NM! I heard a pledge from Magdalena this week. Silver City here. New Mexico loves WFMU
	11:23am hilaryprudy: yep, co-hawg...
	11:24am Meghan: ↳ Stu @11:22 No way! I am intrigued if they are real....
	11:24am WoodsOfMaine: Also, don't order oysters at dinner in Iowa.
	11:24am Meghan: ↳ unpopularfred @11:20 The Nine's as it was called around us
	11:24am Yetz: ↳ RVA @11:22 So beautiful out your way! Have visited a few times, driving Albuquerque to Santa Fe, I want to go back there soon!
	11:25am still b/p: ↳ melinda @11:20 Ha - Heard that, too. Was probably Lubec, melinda. ..speaking of regional pronuncamications.
	11:25am kevlicki: Trouble- there are three varieties of clam chowder, but chowdah-heads can come from anywhere!
	11:25am Trouble: true@kevlicki!
	11:26am Marie: ↳ Yetz @11:21 I've always thought I would like to study Latin, but really wouldn't have the time unless I didn't have to werk/work/verk?
	11:27am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ still b/p @11:25 Heck, Lubec is practically in Greenland. Ha.
	11:27am Yetz: ↳ Marie @11:26 I've never studied Greek or Latin "properly", more just a hobby I dabble in sometimes
	11:28am Ken From Hyde Park: By the way, either of you DJs have PSDS?
	11:29am hilaryprudy: Love stuffies!
	11:29am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): ↳ Yetz @11:21 I barely remember anything. I did Latin from years 9 to 11. We never learnt the real swear words. I do remember: furcifer = "scoundrel" caudex = "blockhead"
	11:29am The Oscar: I'm still reeling from the fact that the rest of the country doesn't have steak tips!
	11:30am winston legthigh: ↳ Stu @11:22 steve's steakhouse rules. as more and more old diners and restaurants disappear it is a treasure.
	11:32am winston legthigh: ↳ The Oscar @11:29 the iron horse in ormond beach has steak tips for bike week which i will be gnawing on this evening.
	11:35am Yetz: ↳ Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150) @11:29 Interesting. "Furcifer" = "furca" + "ifer". "Furca" is cognate with "fork" and "ifer" means "bearing" (like Lucifer, light-bearer). Literally "furcifer" is "yoke-bearer" or "slave" - from there metaphorically to "scoundrel". (No I did not know all that, I looked it up).
	11:36am deepwoodsquébec: yo chuis là, salut à vous d deepwoods québec
	11:37am still b/p: More steak, MA and North Shore miscellany: Who else can't drive by the Hilltop Route 1 location with big familiar vestigial cactus in Saugus without still having a quick active think about the history before it was closed/converted, and who else always heard that in spite of its long renown and permanent long waiting lines, it wasn't very good?
	11:37am Yetz: ↳ Yetz @11:35 (and also a species of chameleon, hmm)
	11:37am Andres: Deepwoods accent? Ouch. A beautiful province and people.
	11:37am winston legthigh: thanks everybody, im off to lunch. happy marathon!
	11:40am DjLorraine: ↳ winston legthigh @11:32 I've been to that iron horse 1x
	11:42am Trouble: deep woods, to me, is not a slur@ andres, it just refers to being surrounded by nature
	11:43am morphe': Thanks T & M & Vols and all !!!!
	11:44am deepwoodsquébec: en tout seriousness, there is a long history of french people and anglophones denigrating the québec accent as backwards/hick/whatev, and there's some pretty clear contempt toward the mostly lower-class french speakers behind that. not that we can't take a joke, but something to be aware of.
	11:45am Yetz: ↳ still b/p @11:37 I used to drive past that place in the 80s and 90s when it was still very much open. I was vegetarian at the time, and probably wouldn't have gone there anyhow. I remember the giant cactus.
	11:46am melinda: I like the Quebec accent
	11:46am Handy Haversack: And back! How we doing?
	11:47am Marie: The whole concept of "accent" is a little questionable--depends on how you define the standard that is being accented from... or something like that
	11:48am Yetz: ↳ Marie @11:47 everyone has an accent, there is no 'standard'.
	11:48am SeaCreature: Lenny the Quahog was my favorite criminal nickname, speaking of Mass.
	11:49am Marie: ↳ Yetz @11:48 then the concept of accent is....?
	11:49am Webhamster Henry: I'm from West Hartford, CT, home of Noah Webster, so, I have the received American English pronunciation.
	11:49am Yetz: ↳ Marie @11:49 Just like everyone has a hair color
	11:49am Wendy: Why haven't I heard any discussions about Rhide Island's Autocrat coffee syrup?
	11:49am Yetz: (unless they are bald)
	11:50am Yetz: there are a few accents that get special preference, like the "Recieved Pronunciation" in the UK and newscaster-talk in the USA. But those are still accents.
	11:51am dei xhrist: Pledge 4 lifer & Na'Hampsha-ite checking from the road
	11:51am unpopularfred: is someone calling from their Jeep?
	11:53am Mick: Have not been able to chat much lately, but sending love to Trouble and Meghan and all of WFMU land!! [FWIW, I've lived in 4 - count 'em: 4 - states in New England at one time or another]
	11:53am Handy Haversack: Power move!!!
	11:54am Yetz: "Every single American has an accent. For those who have lived in one part of the country and then moved somewhere else only to be told they have an accent, this is great news. For a while, people described the accent from Northeastern Ohio as "standard American," and the Midwestern accent was ascribed the title "General American." But at some point, maybe during the immigration patterns of the 1950s, people shifted, and the Midwest accent changed." - www.travelandleisure.com...
	11:54am Hugo (NL): Meghan? 🌟
	11:54am Marie: ↳ Song: "west end girls" by "pet shop boys" Have you no shame, Trouble? (luv it)
	11:54am Yetz: ↳ Yetz @11:54 (having lived in NJ, Brooklyn, Boston and Chicago I can attest this is true)
	11:55am Magenta: As someone who did a summer program at Brown and went to college outside of Boston, I'm loving all the New England talk!
	11:55am Karl Ward: ↳ Song: "west end girls" by "pet shop boys" Not just a banger, also an interesting composition. My friend Ben Morss wrote an article about "West End Girls" and its unusual chord progression: benmorss.com...
	11:55am Magenta: ↳ Magenta @11:55 And here, "outside of Boston" is not a code for Harvard.
	11:55am Yetz: ↳ Yetz @11:54 (one year in Providence too)
	11:55am Peter in SEA: Ha ha, Trouble taught me to love this song that was on 24/7 in London pubs in 1986!
	11:55am unpopularfred: who wouldn't want to dance to Joe Battan?
	11:56am TDK60: Merci, DJs Trouble & Meghan!
	11:56am A. Bee: This song never gets old, thank you for pulling out this power move.
	11:57am Hugo (NL): Just tuned in. Looks like a starpacked show. Thanks trouble and Meghan. Will listen back in the archives
	11:58am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Trouble & Meghan. (The PSDS gag from before was about "pierced ears," spoken with an accent.)
	11:59am Magenta: Thanks, Meghan and Trouble!
	11:59am StringOFperils: Clam chowder taxonomy, rural Quebecois, and the Pet Shop Boys...and a simple cake worthy of Wayne Thiebaud's more complex cakes; this show has it all! So...maybe make a pledge [here]
	11:59am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Trouble, Meghan, phone peeps, food peeps, expired Peeps, fresh Peeps, and all! Keep anticapitalisting! WFMU 5EVA!
	11:59am still b/p: Interesting Harvard Square timeline/change perspective, written more than a decade ago, looking back a couple decades further. www.harvardmagazine.com...
	6:45pm ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: ↳ Song: "wavy" by "terror danjah" Lovely groove
