	♥ 10:03am melinda: New toilet is a big deal
	10:04am TDK60: A new toilet at WFMU! Most auspicious.
	♥ 10:04am pot8o: good morning everyone!
	♥ 10:05am Barney Grubbs: I had a great moment w/ your show & Alice Coltrane this year. I ended up having to replace the belt on an old portable cassette player/recorder so I could listen to some old tapes of my dad (all our other old tape players seemed to be broken). In the process of testing to see if it would still record I held it up to the speaker during Trouble's show when Alice Coltrane was playing. I ended up with some extra empty cassette shells after fixing some of the old tapes and tried to make some tape loops. First loop I got to work, I pressed play and it was a wonderful warbly loop of Alice Coltrane harp arpeggios--I had chopped up the test tape without realizing it & it was a completely unexpected message from beyond the ether.
	♥ 10:10am Karl Ward: ↳ Song: "flaming cherries jubilee at antoine's" by "mary l... Gorgeous!

	10:13am lou in CHI: How have i gone over a decade listening to the station without realizng that -9368 = wfmu?!
	10:13am TDK60: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:10 HH: Your empirical observation forms a sure opinion, I figure.
	♥ 10:13am Trouble: 1-800-989-9368
	10:14am Lawrence: Ravi Coltrane plays quite a bit in the South Slope area of Brooklyn--Mama Tried, Rullo's, etc. Well worth checking out.

	♥ 10:24am Crownless Gander: La musique is feminine. You had it right.
	10:25am Mike W.: it’s really All Versus All here on earth but it does feel a bit different within WoofMoo

	10:35am Fred And Alan: Hello Morphe Hyperdose Robin m. Love2Laf Magenta WoodsofMaine. And all the great friends of Wfmu
	10:35am Fred And Alan: Hello Chris thanks for everything
	10:36am love2laf: Loving the music today, and hearing Trouble and Olivia share their love for the station. Simply inspiring.
	♥ 10:40am steveo: ↳ TDK60 @10:26 missed your chance to say you haven't been in the station "for the longest time" :)
	10:41am morphe': Thank you in Nederlands is or sounds like or I mis-pronounce "BeDankt!!!"
	10:42am TDK60: ↳ steveo @10:40 Steveo: Now I recall, it was packing WFMU prizes in Monty Hall. I think you were there. Summer 2021?
	♥ 10:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ steveo @10:40 That post-it is gone! Glenn Campbell is still watching you tinkle, though. I think the updated instructions are "hold handle full flush," which has a nice poetry to it.
	♥ 10:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ TDK60 @10:42 I think I packed swag with you in MH at least once, TDK60.
	10:45am olivia: Thanks to everybody who has pledged so far! Folks are really coming in strong for Trouble! We currently have 158 pledgers to this program, and we are trying to reach 225 by the end of this show at noon! Help us reach the goal! Small pledges work, big pledges work, we will take anything ! All the swag is so good this year, too, go check it out on wfmu.org/pledge
	♥ 10:46am unpopularfred: Shout out to Tara if she's here today. Thanks again for mentioning the Suzanne Ciani concert in Brattleboro last week. I much enjoyed the concert and meeting you. I actually bumped into Suzanne three or four times while wandering around downtown Brattleboro the next day. And to tie tie everything back to last weeks show, Roger from Mission of Burma was at the concert as well.
	♥ 10:46am steveo: ↳ TDK60 @10:42 yeah I remember! couple of years ago for sure @handy that sign always scared me
	10:47am TDK60: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:43 Handy! That's right, you were there, also musician Pete Glub, right?
	♥ 10:48am Handy Haversack: ↳ TDK60 @10:47 I think the day I was with you in MH our third was Fox (now a DJ)? Records from that era are spotty at best, though.
	♥ 10:48am Vivian: I'm a swag for lifer, pledged towards this show. Does that count in today's totals?
	♥ 10:51am Handy Haversack: ↳ Vivian @10:48 As I understand it, it depends on when you allocated your S4L. If you did it between the first Marathon show and today, it would have been in the total at the start of the show. If you did it before, it would have been in last week's total at the start of the show. I think that's the way it works, at any rate.
	10:51am Roberto: I'm frequently in that same awful mega-health food store.
	10:51am TVP: Shipping giant that begins with A = Airborne Express?
	10:55am TDK60: ↳ Song: "kotoku" by "osibisa" Trouble, I think you mean the band, Osibisa.
	♥ 10:56am Jason from Houston: Not Toes?!?
	♥ 10:56am evancuts: Thanks for another great year of music. Was such a hoot meeting so many listeners at our Meadowlands bird walk last spring!

	10:57am Huge Rat: Toes is funnier tbh
	10:57am Geoffrey in Ottawa: Toews = Taves
	♥ 10:57am Jason from Houston: ↳ Huge Rat @10:56 Thank you! Great books.
	♥ 10:57am Handy Haversack: Bryant in TO!
	10:57am Ian: Miriam TAVES
	10:58am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @10:51 Good vegan donuts though. Except they tend to run out of them quickly in urban locations.
	♥ 10:58am Vivian: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:51 Thanks Handy! I did it this morning so it may show up by the end of today's show.
	♥ 10:59am Jason from Houston: Just finished Women Talking. Chasing with Morrison's Paradise.
	♥ 11:01am Webhamster Henry: Tove Jansson: en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 11:01am ifeelfatnsassy: Finders Keepers released the Moomins soundtrack a while back... finderskeepersrecords.bandcamp.com...
	♥ 11:02am Handy Haversack: Åland. It's part of Finland but Swedish-speaking. Continental Subway featured a full hour of music from there just the week before Marathon! wfmu.org... For later consumption.
	♥ 11:03am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Webhamster Henry @11:01 Summer book movie is coming up : "Charlie McDowell is directing a film adaptation based on the book. It will star Glenn Close."
	11:03am Ben G: Let's do it! Passed by the new sculpture earlier this week, it's beautiful

	11:03am melinda: I remember Rommel from my first Marathon volunteer stint
	11:03am TDK60: ↳ TDK60 @10:47 Correction: that was Peter Galub. He said he'd played with Laura Cantrell, (who DJed at WFMU once), among other musical pursuits.
	11:04am ?: Is the song “rhode island is famous for you” by the lacivious biddies your theme song?!
	11:05am Jeff Schiller: Twas me asking about the biddies
	♥ 11:06am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Andrea C from the app @11:03 That Moomin music is also on bandcamp: finderskeepersrecords.bandcamp.com... as is this excellent Moomin music: bluemusicgroup.bandcamp.com...
	♥ 11:07am Magenta: ↳ Song: "magenta mountain" by "yma sumac" I love this song!
	11:07am Roberto: My daughter was heavy into Moomin a couple of years ago. We watched the Japanese animated series together.
	11:07am Andrea C from the app: Yes :)
	11:08am Ochre Ogre: Chirping morning Trouble and Olivia!
	♥ 11:09am Magenta: (Any time the word "magenta" is in a song I immediately perk up.)
	♥ 11:10am The Oscar: My wife is a preschool teacher (and avid quilter), and she's currently doing a quilting unit with her kids!
	11:10am Roberto: Use your words, Bruce! I tell me cat the same thing whenever she bites me.
	11:10am love2laf: "Is Timmy in the well", something I say to my cat daily when she mews for attention.
	11:11am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @11:10 Except I don't call her Bruce.
	11:12am love2laf: Community is it's very own currency, and WFMU has a wealth of it.
	11:12am olivia: looooveee this album!
	11:14am oshiwoshi: ↳ Song: "magenta mountain" by "yma sumac" i might have to up my pedge - what are the other tracks?
	♥ 11:14am Chris Hiatt: Trouble, loved the email from you the other day. No frills, no Mailchimp. Just an email from you to your fans. It was very refreshing.
	♥ 11:16am Passaic River Blues: FYI: The singer iLe is from Calle 13, an underappreciated Puerto Rican rap band.
	♥ 11:17am Trouble: thanks @ chris!
	♥ 11:18am Trouble: @oshiwoshi: theyare from all over the map, too many to type right now. but alll beautiful and moody, atmospheric sounds.
	♥ 11:19am Magenta: ↳ Chris Hiatt @11:14 There's a Trouble email list?
	♥ 11:19am Trouble: gracias @ passaic river!!
	11:19am Slaboch: 21st year of listening to you Trouble! Don't ever go away!
	♥ 11:20am Trouble: no, sorry @ magenta.
	11:20am olivia: almost 50 pledges away from our goal of 225! Help out WFMU and drop us some extra coin!
	11:20am love2laf: ↳ Magenta @11:19 All of the DJ emails I've been delighted to read say at the bottom of them that you're receiving for a few reasons, one of which is commenting on their message boards.
	♥ 11:21am Magenta: ↳ love2laf @11:20 Cool, got it!

	♥ 11:27am tim from washington: Hi Trouble, Olivia and everyone! Go Trouble! Go WFMU! I am no longer in the phone room. Scott has now assigned me to new toilet monitoring duties to make sure it does not get abused. It's an awkward job but it's for the greater WFMU good.
	♥ 11:28am Handy Haversack: ↳ tim from washington @11:27 At least you're not on the R train!
	11:28am Yetz: MRIs are cool if you are into noise
	♥ 11:29am Magenta: ↳ tim from washington @11:27 An important duty!
	♥ 11:29am happymaan: I'm finally sitting my ass down and doing taxes.
	11:30am Hubig Pie: ↳ Yetz @11:28 And you like confined spaces.
	♥ 11:30am tim from washington: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 That's what you think!
	11:30am ?: What are your connections to P-ton??? Both of you—I want answers! I grew up there. Got my shoes at Hewlett’s. They had those groovy brown and tan shopping bag
	11:31am Yetz: ↳ happymaan @11:29 Haven't done my taxes, I'm too turnt up
	♥ 11:32am Handy Haversack: ↳ Yetz @11:31 Yeah, us neither. Too depressing.
	11:33am Ben from Newark: Thanks for the Newark shout out! Liz and I would love to make a friend in the neighborhood. We can be reached at Liz's IG, @ironboundnjcats (I'm off the grid)
	11:35am Matt in NJ: WPRB, FMUs farm team
	♥ 11:36am Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks God WFMU doesn't inquire about where its DJs went to college. They woulda kicked my butt out years ago.

	11:37am Robm: ↳ Matt in NJ @11:35 Listen to WPRB a few times, nice station

	♥ 11:37am Barney Grubbs: I used to teach at dartmouth in the early 2000s. I was surprised to learn that they had some amazing guest music faculty in the 1970s -- Don Cherry, Brother Ah
	11:37am Yetz: ↳ Yetz @11:31 (quoting lyrics from a song that's never been played on this station)
	♥ 11:38am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Robm @11:37 Owned and operated by listener Passaic River Blues?
	♥ 11:40am Handy Haversack: ↳ Hubig Pie @11:37 It's always New York State that gets us.
	11:40am ?: ↳ Barney Grubbs @11:37 I went there undergrad and on the music faculty they had Christian Wolff and Jon Appleton. Also Dan Bodah might like to know that another Dartmouth prof basically started the popularity of Tuvan throat singing in the West, having brought Huun-Huur-Tu to the US for the first time (concert at Dartmouth)
	11:41am ?: ↳ Barney Grubbs @11:37 Also Michael Ray from Sun Ra's Arkestra would play there like ALL THE TIME. I think maybe he lived nearby
	11:41am Yetz: ↳ Robm @11:37 PRB was the first FM college station in the nation! They beat 'FMU by 8 years.
	11:42am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Just woke up and made my pledge to Trouble! You are the best! Can't wait to get your premium!
	11:42am Erella: ↳ @11:41 That is cool! Michael Ray from Sun Ra's Arkestra is also in Kool and the Gang
	11:44am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Ha ha! Always love hearing live shout outs on the air. AMNH misses you.
	11:45am c lav: love a sonic tetris!
	♥ 11:46am listener james from westwood: A group of academic-text freelance copy editors I belong to just posted a note about a tax-related webinar/breakout session, so I guess folks are finally putting pen to paper on what they owe in that circle. It's always "fun."
	♥ 11:46am Greg from ZONE 5: Speaking as a Tetris aficionado: It is most definitely like Tetris!
	11:47am Robm: ↳ Yetz @11:41 Either this station or radio paradise i listen too
	11:47am Hubig Pie: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:40 SoDak gets all it's revenue from high property tax rates. Which is also due in April.
	♥ 11:48am Handy Haversack: Gotta get out of here in a couple of minutes to head your way, Jersey City and WFMU. Bruce, I got the Rabbit Power Bites! Thanks, Trouble, Olivia, volunteers, and all!
	♥ 11:49am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "get involved" by "george soule" Proper.
	11:49am some guy: just work for cash and don't file taxes. easy.
	♥ 11:50am Bobby: We like the vibe. We like the DJs.
	11:51am alan the painter: yes, true public radio, for the peeps that cheep, chirp like sweet birds, do it Trouble. here battling landlord/mgt co. for hot water in my tub, they think 95-102 degrees adequate, im try-in to learn em... patience is waining...
	♥ 11:52am Trouble: thank you all, so very much, for your wonderful vibe!!!!
	11:53am Heidee: 💕
	♥ 11:53am Ken From Hyde Park: Pledge for more interviews, like the Joe Bataan talk not long ago. www.wfmu.org...
	11:54am Robm: ↳ Heidee @11:53 Hello stranger long time no see
	♥ 11:54am Barney Grubbs: ↳ @11:41 cool! Appleton was still around while I was there, but chemists & music faculty didn't interact much. Looks like Wolff had already retired. It looks like Michael Ray has/had a crew in Burlington: "Ray actually supervises a pair of ensembles named Cosmic Krewe, one based in the Crescent City, the other in Burlington, VT, and the surrounding region." (gatheringofthevibes.com...)
	♥ 11:54am The Oscar: Kick out the JAMs!
	♥ 11:55am Jason from Houston: Thank you, Trouble and Olivia.
	♥ 11:55am Rich in Washington: J.A.M.M.S.!!!
	11:56am Robm: ↳ Song: "dancing queen" by "J.A.M.M.S" Sounds like something ken would play
	11:57am Ross in Dumfries: I requested this yesterday!!!
	♥ 11:57am unpopularfred: ↳ Robm @11:56 and yet he didn't
	♥ 11:57am melinda: ooh I remember the thing they did with Tammy Wynette, Justified and Ancient
	11:58am Listener Robert: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:55 Right out of "Illuminatus!"
	♥ 11:58am Paulo AD: Not dancing queen again haha
	11:58am Robm: ↳ unpopularfred @11:57 That is the strange part
	♥ 11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: Very good, building a nest egg to fund the station! 🥚
	12:00pm Sarah R.: Trouble! I have listened for at least 10 years and I love your show so much. My week would not be complete without you and WFMU!
	12:01pm Ochre Ogre: Thanks Trouble an Olivia, go Greg!

	♥ 10:03am melinda: New toilet is a big deal
	10:04am TDK60: A new toilet at WFMU! Most auspicious.
	♥ 10:04am pot8o: good morning everyone!
	♥ 10:05am Barney Grubbs: I had a great moment w/ your show & Alice Coltrane this year. I ended up having to replace the belt on an old portable cassette player/recorder so I could listen to some old tapes of my dad (all our other old tape players seemed to be broken). In the process of testing to see if it would still record I held it up to the speaker during Trouble's show when Alice Coltrane was playing. I ended up with some extra empty cassette shells after fixing some of the old tapes and tried to make some tape loops. First loop I got to work, I pressed play and it was a wonderful warbly loop of Alice Coltrane harp arpeggios--I had chopped up the test tape without realizing it & it was a completely unexpected message from beyond the ether.
	♥ 10:10am Karl Ward: ↳ Song: "flaming cherries jubilee at antoine's" by "mary l... Gorgeous!

	10:13am lou in CHI: How have i gone over a decade listening to the station without realizng that -9368 = wfmu?!
	10:13am TDK60: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:10 HH: Your empirical observation forms a sure opinion, I figure.
	♥ 10:13am Trouble: 1-800-989-9368
	10:14am Lawrence: Ravi Coltrane plays quite a bit in the South Slope area of Brooklyn--Mama Tried, Rullo's, etc. Well worth checking out.
	10:15am alan the painter: ↳ Trouble @10:13 thank you! ohie, life beautiful...everything blurry, finally can draw tones...

	♥ 10:24am Crownless Gander: La musique is feminine. You had it right.
	10:25am Mike W.: it’s really All Versus All here on earth but it does feel a bit different within WoofMoo

	10:36am love2laf: Loving the music today, and hearing Trouble and Olivia share their love for the station. Simply inspiring.
	♥ 10:40am steveo: ↳ TDK60 @10:26 missed your chance to say you haven't been in the station "for the longest time" :)
	10:41am morphe': Thank you in Nederlands is or sounds like or I mis-pronounce "BeDankt!!!"
	10:42am TDK60: ↳ steveo @10:40 Steveo: Now I recall, it was packing WFMU prizes in Monty Hall. I think you were there. Summer 2021?
	♥ 10:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ steveo @10:40 That post-it is gone! Glenn Campbell is still watching you tinkle, though. I think the updated instructions are "hold handle full flush," which has a nice poetry to it.
	♥ 10:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ TDK60 @10:42 I think I packed swag with you in MH at least once, TDK60.
	10:45am olivia: Thanks to everybody who has pledged so far! Folks are really coming in strong for Trouble! We currently have 158 pledgers to this program, and we are trying to reach 225 by the end of this show at noon! Help us reach the goal! Small pledges work, big pledges work, we will take anything ! All the swag is so good this year, too, go check it out on wfmu.org/pledge
	♥ 10:46am unpopularfred: Shout out to Tara if she's here today. Thanks again for mentioning the Suzanne Ciani concert in Brattleboro last week. I much enjoyed the concert and meeting you. I actually bumped into Suzanne three or four times while wandering around downtown Brattleboro the next day. And to tie tie everything back to last weeks show, Roger from Mission of Burma was at the concert as well.
	♥ 10:46am steveo: ↳ TDK60 @10:42 yeah I remember! couple of years ago for sure @handy that sign always scared me
	10:47am TDK60: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:43 Handy! That's right, you were there, also musician Pete Glub, right?
	♥ 10:48am Handy Haversack: ↳ TDK60 @10:47 I think the day I was with you in MH our third was Fox (now a DJ)? Records from that era are spotty at best, though.
	♥ 10:48am Vivian: I'm a swag for lifer, pledged towards this show. Does that count in today's totals?
	♥ 10:51am Handy Haversack: ↳ Vivian @10:48 As I understand it, it depends on when you allocated your S4L. If you did it between the first Marathon show and today, it would have been in the total at the start of the show. If you did it before, it would have been in last week's total at the start of the show. I think that's the way it works, at any rate.
	10:51am Roberto: I'm frequently in that same awful mega-health food store.
	10:51am TVP: Shipping giant that begins with A = Airborne Express?
	10:55am TDK60: ↳ Song: "kotoku" by "osibisa" Trouble, I think you mean the band, Osibisa.

	10:57am Huge Rat: Toes is funnier tbh
	10:57am Geoffrey in Ottawa: Toews = Taves
	♥ 10:57am Jason from Houston: ↳ Huge Rat @10:56 Thank you! Great books.
	♥ 10:57am Handy Haversack: Bryant in TO!
	10:57am Ian: Miriam TAVES
	10:58am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @10:51 Good vegan donuts though. Except they tend to run out of them quickly in urban locations.
	♥ 10:58am Vivian: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:51 Thanks Handy! I did it this morning so it may show up by the end of today's show.
	♥ 10:59am Jason from Houston: Just finished Women Talking. Chasing with Morrison's Paradise.
	♥ 11:01am Webhamster Henry: Tove Jansson: en.wikipedia.org...

	11:03am melinda: I remember Rommel from my first Marathon volunteer stint
	11:03am TDK60: ↳ TDK60 @10:47 Correction: that was Peter Galub. He said he'd played with Laura Cantrell, (who DJed at WFMU once), among other musical pursuits.
	11:04am ?: Is the song “rhode island is famous for you” by the lacivious biddies your theme song?!
	11:05am Jeff Schiller: Twas me asking about the biddies
	♥ 11:06am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Andrea C from the app @11:03 That Moomin music is also on bandcamp: finderskeepersrecords.bandcamp.com... as is this excellent Moomin music: bluemusicgroup.bandcamp.com...
	♥ 11:07am Magenta: ↳ Song: "magenta mountain" by "yma sumac" I love this song!
	11:07am Roberto: My daughter was heavy into Moomin a couple of years ago. We watched the Japanese animated series together.
	11:07am Andrea C from the app: Yes :)
	11:08am Ochre Ogre: Chirping morning Trouble and Olivia!
	♥ 11:09am Magenta: (Any time the word "magenta" is in a song I immediately perk up.)

	11:10am Roberto: Use your words, Bruce! I tell me cat the same thing whenever she bites me.
	11:10am love2laf: "Is Timmy in the well", something I say to my cat daily when she mews for attention.
	11:11am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @11:10 Except I don't call her Bruce.
	11:12am love2laf: Community is it's very own currency, and WFMU has a wealth of it.
	11:12am olivia: looooveee this album!
	11:14am oshiwoshi: ↳ Song: "magenta mountain" by "yma sumac" i might have to up my pedge - what are the other tracks?
	♥ 11:14am Chris Hiatt: Trouble, loved the email from you the other day. No frills, no Mailchimp. Just an email from you to your fans. It was very refreshing.
	♥ 11:16am Passaic River Blues: FYI: The singer iLe is from Calle 13, an underappreciated Puerto Rican rap band.
	♥ 11:17am Trouble: thanks @ chris!
	♥ 11:18am Trouble: @oshiwoshi: theyare from all over the map, too many to type right now. but alll beautiful and moody, atmospheric sounds.
	♥ 11:19am Magenta: ↳ Chris Hiatt @11:14 There's a Trouble email list?
	♥ 11:19am Trouble: gracias @ passaic river!!
	11:19am Slaboch: 21st year of listening to you Trouble! Don't ever go away!
	♥ 11:20am Trouble: no, sorry @ magenta.
	11:20am olivia: almost 50 pledges away from our goal of 225! Help out WFMU and drop us some extra coin!
	11:20am love2laf: ↳ Magenta @11:19 All of the DJ emails I've been delighted to read say at the bottom of them that you're receiving for a few reasons, one of which is commenting on their message boards.
	♥ 11:21am Magenta: ↳ love2laf @11:20 Cool, got it!
	♥ 11:22am listener james from westwood: Breaking: Bandcamp's workers are unionizing. twitter.com...

	♥ 11:26am Magenta: ↳ listener james from westwood @11:22 Thanks! Forwarded to a few friends who can help spread the news.
	♥ 11:27am tim from washington: Hi Trouble, Olivia and everyone! Go Trouble! Go WFMU! I am no longer in the phone room. Scott has now assigned me to new toilet monitoring duties to make sure it does not get abused. It's an awkward job but it's for the greater WFMU good.
	♥ 11:28am Handy Haversack: ↳ tim from washington @11:27 At least you're not on the R train!
	11:28am Yetz: MRIs are cool if you are into noise
	♥ 11:29am Magenta: ↳ tim from washington @11:27 An important duty!
	♥ 11:29am happymaan: I'm finally sitting my ass down and doing taxes.
	11:30am Hubig Pie: ↳ Yetz @11:28 And you like confined spaces.
	♥ 11:30am tim from washington: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 That's what you think!
	11:30am ?: What are your connections to P-ton??? Both of you—I want answers! I grew up there. Got my shoes at Hewlett’s. They had those groovy brown and tan shopping bag
	11:31am Yetz: ↳ happymaan @11:29 Haven't done my taxes, I'm too turnt up
	♥ 11:32am Handy Haversack: ↳ Yetz @11:31 Yeah, us neither. Too depressing.
	11:33am Ben from Newark: Thanks for the Newark shout out! Liz and I would love to make a friend in the neighborhood. We can be reached at Liz's IG, @ironboundnjcats (I'm off the grid)
	11:35am Matt in NJ: WPRB, FMUs farm team
	♥ 11:36am Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks God WFMU doesn't inquire about where its DJs went to college. They woulda kicked my butt out years ago.

	11:37am Robm: ↳ Matt in NJ @11:35 Listen to WPRB a few times, nice station
	11:37am Hubig Pie: I owe 8 C-notes to the feds. I'm gonna hang onto them for another month.
	♥ 11:37am Barney Grubbs: I used to teach at dartmouth in the early 2000s. I was surprised to learn that they had some amazing guest music faculty in the 1970s -- Don Cherry, Brother Ah
	11:37am Yetz: ↳ Yetz @11:31 (quoting lyrics from a song that's never been played on this station)
	♥ 11:38am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Robm @11:37 Owned and operated by listener Passaic River Blues?
	♥ 11:40am Handy Haversack: ↳ Hubig Pie @11:37 It's always New York State that gets us.
	11:40am ?: ↳ Barney Grubbs @11:37 I went there undergrad and on the music faculty they had Christian Wolff and Jon Appleton. Also Dan Bodah might like to know that another Dartmouth prof basically started the popularity of Tuvan throat singing in the West, having brought Huun-Huur-Tu to the US for the first time (concert at Dartmouth)
	11:41am ?: ↳ Barney Grubbs @11:37 Also Michael Ray from Sun Ra's Arkestra would play there like ALL THE TIME. I think maybe he lived nearby
	11:41am Yetz: ↳ Robm @11:37 PRB was the first FM college station in the nation! They beat 'FMU by 8 years.
	11:42am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Just woke up and made my pledge to Trouble! You are the best! Can't wait to get your premium!
	11:42am Erella: ↳ @11:41 That is cool! Michael Ray from Sun Ra's Arkestra is also in Kool and the Gang
	11:44am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Ha ha! Always love hearing live shout outs on the air. AMNH misses you.
	11:45am c lav: love a sonic tetris!
	♥ 11:46am listener james from westwood: A group of academic-text freelance copy editors I belong to just posted a note about a tax-related webinar/breakout session, so I guess folks are finally putting pen to paper on what they owe in that circle. It's always "fun."
	♥ 11:46am Greg from ZONE 5: Speaking as a Tetris aficionado: It is most definitely like Tetris!
	11:47am Robm: ↳ Yetz @11:41 Either this station or radio paradise i listen too
