Listener comments!
	8:58am Handy Haversack: Bright Thursday greetings, Trouble and all the Troubled! Trouble, I owe you an e-mail (I was out of town), but let me say here that it was a real joy to meet you in person during Marathon! Also: LOVE Leanora Carrington. Her book The Ear Trumpet is a marvel.
	9:00am Robm: Morning trouble and fellow troublemakers
	9:01am Edgar from Maine: gmorning
	9:01am bradford: good morning Trouble & Modernists
	9:02am terminalhipness: ahhhhh, the sonic cleansing begins
	9:03am StringOFperils: Rahsaan the beautiful one
	9:03am steveo: good morning; leoanora carrington is so strange and good
	9:03am TDK60: ↳ Handy Haversack @8:58 Bon mati, Trouble DJ! / Handy, I read the Ear Trumpet last year. Shall we send some paperbacks to a library in Florida?
	9:04am listener james from westwood: Morning, Trouble and all!
	9:04am Handy Haversack: ↳ TDK60 @9:03 Not sure they'd let 'em on the shelves!
	9:04am oshiwoshi: greetings fellow meat-sacs - look forward to another special journey beyond the material in T's capable hands
	9:05am Chris Hiatt: Good Morning Trouble, Troubled. Nice to hear Rahsaan kicking it off.
	9:06am Robm: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:04 We sure as hell can try
	9:07am Lixiviated Life: Hi morning people.
	9:07am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "seventh chakra keynote B (violet)" by "steven hal... Hi Trouble! Ooh: Music From The Hearts Of Space™!
	9:07am Robm: Serious question for the listmind, is there a way for that governor of Florida to keep people there from listening to the magic factory, or am I being too paranoid?
	9:08am Yetz: ↳ Robm @9:07 I was in Florida last week, I listened to WFMU and said "Gay" and I didn't get in trouble for it.
	9:09am Lixiviated Life: ↳ Robm @9:07 The question always boils down to: Is it possible (yes) Is it probable (no)
	9:09am captain beef fart: mernin'
	9:10am Robm: ↳ Lixiviated Life @9:09 I really would not put anything past this governor.
	9:10am Zinn The Mood: Greetings Trouble and troublemakers all. Beautiful track to open, thanks. Have the chicory/espresso coffee and a smoothie in front of me, and a book of critical evaluations of James Baldwin from 1977 ( so while he was alive). Found it at the wonderful Langston Hughes Queens public library branch in Corona. Gem of a place. We were blown away by how much space is dedicated to black studies. Felt almost like being at the Schomburg. And there’s like a museum section upstairs with an auditorium for concerts and theater. Of course this being the US we had to be escorted up for a cursory look because they were short of staff. Which is why we insist; Defund the Police, to Refund the Public. Worth the trip to the library in Corona.
	9:10am Trouble: good morning thursday ville!
	9:11am Yetz: ↳ Robm @9:10 "The Great Firewall of Florida" - it would be pretty hard to do
	9:11am Lixiviated Life: Trouble, I want to be in this vibe all day long. Thanks
	9:11am jdaAndAnoukFromKöln: hi trouble, gutem morgen gang–
	9:11am Fred and Alan: Good morning Everyone
	9:11am Strandlund: Greetings Trouble...
	9:11am Robm: ↳ Yetz @9:11 Yetz i know just thinking out loud
	9:12am steveo: i think i can tell which nelson that is
	9:12am Yetz: ↳ Robm @9:11 Sure, same here. Doesn't seem technically feasable. And people would find ways around it.
	9:12am Robm: ↳ Robm @9:11 And with this going back to lurking
	9:13am Lixiviated Life: ↳ steveo @9:12 I’m ruling out Nelson Eddy right off the bat
	9:13am Yetz: ↳ Robm @9:12 Peace to you! Hope you have a great day.
	9:13am Robm: ↳ Yetz @9:12 Sure they would
	9:13am terminalhipness: ↳ Lixiviated Life @9:09 "just because you're paranoid, it doesn't mean they're not out to get you..."
	9:13am Robm: ↳ Yetz @9:13 Same her
	9:14am Paulo AD: Whats up dudes, working late here :( You can keep me company
	9:15am terminalhipness: wow. this Nelson Patton track just gets even cooler...
	9:15am Zipperhead7: Good morning Troubled modernists, esp. Fred and Alan! Had to drive into Brooklyn yesterday and it was one ongoing noxious, shimmering hell of a traffic jam. Since they're building all these hi-rises, and many of the residents will insist on cars, where will all the cars go? Yikes!
	9:16am Lixiviated Life: ↳ terminalhipness @9:13 Paranoia is like an electron, it doesn’t exist if you’re not looking at it. (Not exactly the same but sorta)
	9:16am Strandlund: ↳ Yetz @9:08 Bugs Bunny had the right idea: www.youtube.com...
	9:17am terminalhipness: ↳ Lixiviated Life @9:16 interesting, hold on a moment while I overthink that (lol)
	9:20am Andrea: ↳ Song: "a feast of liberation/instrumental played togethe... loving this feast of liberation
	9:21am TDK60: ↳ Zipperhead7 @9:15 Zipperhead7: Whenever I take the F Train over to Brooklyn I see the cars snailing it on the highway as I zip by on the MTA subway; it's elevated there, over Gowanus. I don't have a car, don't want one in NYC.
	9:22am Gerry from Miami: Fred and Alan, I detect a pattern here. You start with the Pidge and then hang on a while longer for the show following Wake & Bake here on the main station feed. I tend to roam around all 4 streams and even dip into the Archives, as I did yesterday so I could hear your debut appearance on Pseu's show. Are you planning to drop in on her today? Maybe your jobs interfere, I don't know. Welcome to Trouble's show!
	9:23am Fred and Alan: Hello Zipperhead and Gerry from Miami Will try to stop by Pseus chatboard today as its hard we're working today
	9:23am Paulo AD: ↳ Gerry from Miami @9:22 I love a good dip in the archives
	9:24am Lixiviated Life: Geez it’s cold today. Shouldn’t March be going out like a lamb 🐑?
	9:24am Yetz: ↳ Song: "a feast of liberation/instrumental played togethe... i might have to get this brian harnetty record - everything i've heard from it is soooo good
	9:25am Handy Haversack: ↳ Zipperhead7 @9:15 Shocking that our city govt. and their development partners didn't think that through, isn't it.
	9:26am Lixiviated Life: Gotta straighten up the house. Stepping away from the screen for a minute. You all talk amongst yourselves.
	9:26am Zipperhead7: ↳ TDK60 @9:21 Didn't have a car for the 20 years I lived in the Bronx, but had to get a beater when I moved north. Shopping for one was kind of hilarious. Salesman: "You really don't want a car, do you?"
	9:26am Gerry from Miami: Hey, Paulo! The WFMU Archives are a treasure!
	9:27am Robm: ↳ Gerry from Miami @9:26 Definitely a rabbit hole
	9:28am Paulo AD: ↳ Gerry from Miami @9:26 Beacuse I mostley get the overnight shows live, I catch up with day time shows there
	9:28am Fred and Alan: We were invited by Station Manager Ken and Pseu for a quick interview instead it lasted for 3 Hours as listeners from all over the World now our good friends Loved Fred and Alan,they emailed and phoned in immediately. We entered their ears and wound up in their hearts. Everyone tells us we must share our stories with the World to laugh at us as this is missing from their daily lives..........
	9:29am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and all. The weather in the northeast US looks nice, so there's that. ☀️
	9:29am Bill K: Thanks for this beautiful set. Just what I needed this morning.
	9:29am TDK60: ↳ Zipperhead7 @9:26 Ha! Unenthusiastic buyer.
	9:31am gina k: Good morning all from providence. mourning the loss of my dog Frida after 16 wonderful years. The music this morning started me crying.. it feels good/bad. Thanks
	9:31am Joey!: Great thrill when i met Vashti in the Village once!! Love her and her music so much!!
	9:32am love2laf: ↳ Fred and Alan @9:28 Not laughing at you, ever. Your stories are told with a wry tone, and your stories about the good and the not so good humans in your life are always told with delightful sass that makes me laugh.
	9:32am Paulo AD: ↳ gina k @9:31 Thoughts are with you Gina
	9:33am love2laf: Good morning Trouble and all the troubled. Late start this morning, it was warm in bed, and cold in the house, so I lingered. Glad for the music of the modern world hitting my ears.
	9:33am sydnius: ↳ love2laf @9:32 seconding that we genuinely enjoy you Fred and Alan. I personally laugh at no one but myself.
	9:34am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ gina k @9:31 Remember the good times, gina.
	9:34am Fred and Alan: Thanks all
	9:35am sydnius: now excuse me while I make this western omelette and hash browns before I pass out from lack of blood sugar
	9:35am HyperDose: ↳ gina k @9:31 I'm so sorry 💜
	9:36am Paulo AD: ↳ sydnius @9:35 Stop, I'm starving. Not long till sundown
	9:36am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Strandlund @9:16 Haha, gotten a lot of mileage outta this one the past few years.
	9:36am Zipperhead7: ↳ TDK60 @9:29 It's like the Jean-Paul Sartre for Dodge Dart ad: "In my journey to the end of night, I must rely not only on dialectical paths of reason. I must have a good solid automobile, one that eschews the futile trappings of worldly ennui and asks only for basic maintenance. My Dodge Dartre offers me this elemental solace, and as interior parts fall off I am struck by the realization of their pointlessness. I might not know if the window is up or down. It is of no consequence."
	9:37am Fred and Alan: Sorry Gina K about your dog. Fred and Alan went through the same thing twice. One dog lived til 18 and the other one 14. They were both handled from 6 weeks old Chinese food and chocolate
	9:37am Handy Haversack: ↳ gina k @9:31 Sympathy and solidarity, Gina. It never gets easier. But the good is so good.
	9:38am Zinn The Mood: ↳ gina k @9:31 My condolences. Had my guy for 15.5 years, Doberman/Shepard mix but only about 55lbs. Went everywhere with me, was also able to navigate city streets on his own. Kids would even come call for him! Still think about him all the time. Celebrate how much joy he brought you.
	9:38am gina k: Thanks so much, she was a sato adopted from Puerto Rico , true scrappy mutt. When she was a puppy she looked like Nipper .
	9:39am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:25 That section of the BQE is a 24 hour traffic jam. It's only going to get worse when they start construction on the triple cantilever.
	9:39am Strandlund: ↳ gina k @9:31 Sorry for your loss, Gina...They are family.
	9:39am TDK60: ↳ gina k @9:31 Gina, heart out to you in the passing of your canine pal.
	9:40am Robm: @Gina condolences on your fur baby
	9:40am love2laf: ↳ gina k @9:31 Oh Gina, that's a hard thing indeed. I do hope you take extra care with yourself as you mourn Frida. Hope you wrap yourself in the warmth of the wonderful memories of all of those 16 years. Hugs & pixie dust.
	9:41am Zipperhead7: ↳ gina k @9:31 Oh so sorry!!! I didn't have pets for decades because I dreaded loss. Don't know what I'll do when Zipperdawg heads off
	9:42am Chris Hiatt: ↳ gina k @9:38 Aw sorry about that, Gina.
	9:42am Mick: ↳ gina k @9:31 All our sympathies, gina k - i know how difficult it is. May her memory be a blessing
	9:43am gina k: Ohhh thanks, Trouble this music fits my mood perfectly, full of mystery and some sadness.
	9:43am Joey!: ↳ gina k @9:31 So very sorry Gina for your loss. A sweet sweet puppy!!!
	9:44am Trouble: happy to help@ gina. i am sure you gave your puppy lots of magical days
	9:45am Zinn The Mood: It would be difficult to earn a mention on the long illustrious roll call of French revolutionaries throughout history. But I think current Mayor Anne Hidalgo deserves an honorable mention. This past week, looking out over massive street protest/strikes, garbage piling up everywhere and fires burning in the middle of streets, she didn’t flinch. www.washingtonpost.com... (Apologies for the Neolib link)
	9:45am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "stronger" by "SAULT" Sault always coming through.
	9:45am TDK60: ↳ Zipperhead7 @9:36 Zipperhead: Ha!
	9:46am oshiwoshi: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:45 indeed!
	9:47am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "ashes, ashes" by "meg baird" Extremely glad to have tix to see Meg Baird on 5/10 in Brooklyn -- and with TDK60!
	9:48am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "ashes, ashes" by "meg baird" Handy you get tickets yet? Union Pool ain't sold out yet is it??
	9:49am Paulo AD: Fasting in solidarity with my collegues was a bad idea
	9:49am fred: ↳ Paulo AD @9:36 Stop making up excuses to stop at the club bar instead of the gym, man. I'm not even sure I spelt gym right
	9:49am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:47 Ha we were typing at the same time.
	9:50am PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Song: "ashes, ashes" by "meg baird" Good song
	9:52am love2laf: ↳ Paulo AD @9:49 I think it's quite the admirable thing to do, as hard as it may be.
	9:52am rx scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone.
	9:53am Handy Haversack: ↳ Chris Hiatt @9:48 I did and it's not! dice.fm...
	9:55am Paulo AD: ↳ fred @9:49 hahah fred, I'm actually still working.
	9:55am Chris Hiatt: Ok I gotta wait for payday and then I'm grabbing one. I'll send up the bat signal when the deal is done.
	9:55am Paulo AD: ↳ love2laf @9:52 I dont know how they do it for a month
	9:56am Handy Haversack: ↳ Chris Hiatt @9:55 Sweet!
	9:56am dday: See my photo for some nice lumpy nature Mama Bear & her Cubs
	9:58am Vinyl Hero: Thank you for playing SAULT, a staple of the Duane Train, whom I miss.
	9:58am The Butterman: I got NO problem with Electric Butter… obviously.
	10:01am fred: ↳ Paulo AD @9:55 I guess it's different in AD, but the sense of community in a minority Muslim country might be worth it
	10:04am Spikey BXL: ↳ Song: "the real thing" by "chris lujan & electric butter" absolutely loving this
	10:09am hendrix wolfbat: Omg. Tears steaming down my face. Too sad and obviously amazing of Bruce to do this.
	10:09am Robm: Guliani had something to do with that boycott
	10:09am Chris Hiatt: Oh yeah so the cops owned Bruce Springsteen? That's not the way it works.
	10:10am Acid Cazh: Ugh. There is literally no such thing as a good cop. If you have 12 bad cops and 2,000 good cops who fail to stand up to the bad cops... then you have 2,012 bad cops.
	10:12am Paulo AD: ↳ fred @10:01 Yeah true that.
	10:12am Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @10:10 For. REALS.
	10:13am hilaryprudy: greetings all..yeah the boss is often embraced by white nationalists who think he's on their side...including some cops...I remember the Diallo murder well, then there was the assault and torture of Abner Louima, and the list goes on...
	10:16am The Butterman: ↳ Song: "chicago, damn" by "bobbi humphrey" Bobbi, from Chicago to Harlem River Drive- always smooth and groovy
	10:16am Blacktooth: “Next time call a crackhead.” You know what? I will. A “crackhead” is far more knowledgeable about events & people in my neighborhood than any cop.
	10:17am sydnius: the only thing that ever changed this abusive behaviour is the omnipresent cameras we all wield. use them, keep shining the light is all we can do.
	10:17am fred: I'm not sure who sang that (Kokayi?), but I remember this line: 'They think a wallet is a gun, where I'm from"
	10:19am Zinn The Mood: Thanks for sharing all that background on Diallo, Trouble. Not that that it makes anyone who’s been murdered in cold blood by cops but hadn’t spoken 5 languages and on his way to college any lesser. It’s just that maybe it can instill a little empathy on otherwise uninterested white people who just submissively accept the overarching media narrative that somehow a non complying black person deserves death. Goddaman petty, thin-skinned thug cops. FTP!! As Acid says, there is no such thing as good cops. Not when seven little punks stand by as Eric Garner literally has the life choked out of his lungs - while not one of them intervenes. When they’ve been conditioned to believe they’re above the law, and everything from qualified immunity to the unions hiding their abuse records, it’s never gonna change, without a radical dismantling and reimagining. The whole institution of policing is so deeply rotten to the core in a thousand different ways that there’s no solution but to dismantle the entire corrupt and brutal edifice.
	10:20am Marley P. Dogg: Duane Train’s uncle!!!
	10:22am Acid Cazh: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:19 As QELD says, "Reminds me of the world that we live in again, Police get holidays for killing innocent men"
	10:22am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Marley P. Dogg @10:20 Derrick Harriot for real? Oh wow...
	10:22am The Butterman: I just met with the police lieutenant yesterday with a couple of my art students who will make a community building mural in the station. It’s mostly to be seen by the officers. Any suggestions or ideas are welcome. Arrestees will also be able to see it.
	10:23am TDK60: I positively support the movement against "Cop City" in Atlanta.
	10:24am Acid Cazh: ↳ Song: "brown baby" by "derrick harriot" I glanced at the WFMU player on my phone and my brain said "Derrida Harriot." That would be something, "Deconstruction Dub"
	10:26am Jason from Houston: ↳ The Butterman @10:22 My mind is running wild.
	10:26am Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @10:24 Dubberence, Dubberance ...
	10:27am fred: ↳ The Butterman @10:22 Ask the officers, offhand. Only the good ones will answer, try to make it devoid of peer pressure. Maybe just let it be known it's out there, some mght reply if it's not seen as crossing that thin blue line
	10:29am Paulo AD: ↳ The Butterman @10:22 Cock and balls haha
	10:29am Jason from Houston: ↳ The Butterman @10:22 A line of cops filing past a desk turning in their badges. A large rainbow fills with sky. Citizens rejoicing.
	10:32am MildBill: Love this dub
	10:33am The Butterman: ↳ Paulo AD @10:29 I’m sure we can sneak a cock and balls in no problem. Problem is that some of these cops are friends, colleagues, former students, and current students parents. Good people. Helpful compassionate people. Not the killin’ kind…hopefully
	10:37am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "daftendirekt" by "daft punk" WHOA
	10:37am Jason from Houston: I love this radio program sooooo much.
	10:39am sydnius: “knob techno”
	10:39am Dano59: The rightful anger following the Nashville shooting, about laws allowing guns for mental health cases (how in the hell is that 'a well-regulated militia'??), and reflections this week on Gaslit Nation, on Trump in Waco and the recent Oklahoma City anniversary, had me thinking about several Dan Bern songs. 'Kid's Prayer,' written after Sandy Hook, is really powerful. www.youtube.com...
	10:39am Trouble: merci @ jason
	10:39am Zinn The Mood: ↳ The Butterman @10:22 Good on you. Public art murals are so powerful and should be provocative in the sense that they should allow us to stop for a member to consider what another world would look like. It’s difficult, for me. Because as much as I intensely despise cops, I’ve realized lately, in contemplating the rash and seemingly universality of police brutality during this age across the globe (witness France right now) that ultimately if we wish to overthrow the capitalist destruction of the world and our lives (literally) it’s gonna be very difficult in this age of high tech super surveillance and cops having military grade weapons to expect the kinds of successful citizen uprisings common in the 19th and 18th centuries. I hate to admit but it’s true: we’re gonna need defectors from their ranks. Which is all I say a message appealing to their class status as part of the 99% who are also being price-gouged, have families and friends without universal healthcare, are watching the rich run roughshod over us all. They have to be convinced that instead of being pawns protecting rich white people and their property - and being tethered to a dumb quota system that encourages them to falsify and fabricate offenses - can not be why they got into it in the first place. I don’t know. Maybe it’s naive. But we have to try to appeal to that real sense of Justice that presumably got them on the path to be the overriding thing. And in that sense be convinced to admit and accept that they’re being used for injustice, and that a crippling capitalist system is what is driving precarity which then drives crime. Basically we need a few brave men, as they say, to defy orders and be in the side of the 99%.
	10:39am Dano59: Also: Take the Guns Away Oklahoma True Revolutionaries -- no better protest songs.
	10:40am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "attica blues" by "Archie Shepp" Busy working, but I have no choice but to stop what I'm doing and CRANK "Attica Blues!"
	10:41am Paulo AD: ↳ The Butterman @10:33 Yeah but still, get it in there haha
	10:41am Dano59: also: 'The Cross, The Dollar & the Gun' (2020) by Robyn Hitchcock.
	10:43am Zipperhead7: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:39 Well-stated, Zinn!
	10:43am Blix: This Archie Shepp is fabulous.
	10:43am Chris Hiatt: ↳ The Oscar @10:40 Total multi layered jammer.
	10:44am Dano59: also in the news: Wisconsin school board bans a Miley& Dolly duet about LGBTQ+ acceptance; and: "Administrators also initially banned the song “Rainbow Connection” from The Muppets but later reversed that decision."
	10:45am Peter in SEA: Greetings,Trouble and Modern Listeners, spring has sprung in the PNW!
	10:46am sydnius: ↳ Dano59 @10:44 a satanic tune if ever there was one ⛧
	10:47am Acid Cazh: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:39 The problem is... they aren't working class. "When a person becomes a policeman, he has sold his class interests, he has crossed a class line, he is in the paid employment of the ruling class, he is a part of the private army of the ruling class which exists for the sole purpose of defending private property and profits."
	10:47am The Butterman: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:39 Thanks Zinn, agreed. A lot to consider. I got it covered and will show off the results at the end of June. It’ll be like Where’s Waldo, Paulo. Can you find the cocknballs?
	10:48am sydnius: ↳ Acid Cazh @10:47 “Pull!”
	10:48am Paulo AD: ↳ The Butterman @10:47 Brilliant I love it
	10:49am rx scabin: Fabulouser and fabulouser, Trouble. I must leave to mold the minds of teachers and teachers-to-be. Thank you.
	10:50am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "black love" by "Carlos Garnett" Unrelenting brilliance, joy, and trouble this morning, Trouble!
	10:51am Trouble: thanks @handy! i am trying to clear out the funk, and i dont mean the musical kind
	10:51am Handy Haversack: ↳ Trouble @10:51 WORD! Gotta reboot. Right back!
	10:54am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "mestizo" by "joe bataan" Joe Bataan!
	10:54am Zipperhead7: This set is a SCORCHER! Thanx, Trouble!!! Gotta head out. Peace, love and soul power, y'all! Venceremos!
	10:55am fred: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:39 Please, don't use the French protests here. US media show them as massive outpourings of bloodlust, while they are far less violent than the rightish yellow vest one and nowhere as strong as the 2019 strikes
	10:55am love2laf: This set, this show, this music, it's all the things. Still an hour to go, but clicky starred the whole episode. Like Joe Bataan just said "love and share".
	10:55am Crownless Gander: Good morning! Joining very late and I see the show started with one of my favourite pieces of music ever. Will be consulting the archives later. Meanwhile, Joe Bataan's hitting the spot just right, thank you!
	10:57am Chris Hiatt: Oh my gosh Trouble, this is the show of shows.
	10:58am Crownless Gander: ↳ Acid Cazh @10:47 Good point, AC! Cf. how the Irish in America became white.
	11:00am ?: best mix today!
	11:02am fred: ↳ Crownless Gander @10:58 Not just in the US, that's how Italians went from despised to enforcers in france.
	11:02am sydnius: ↳ Crownless Gander @10:58 hatred persists, if we let it. My wife’s gramma couldn’t get past 🇮🇪, she was abused by the cops as a new czech
	11:03am Dano59: ↳ Acid Cazh @10:47 true, true, true! "Who do you work for? not me!"
	11:04am Zinn The Mood: ↳ The Butterman @10:47 I love subversive art. So I applaud, commend and encourage you. Think it over how best to convey it. One of my favorite radical t-shirts says, “Whistleblowers Set Us Free.” If you could get that in there somewhere with a portrait of Frank Serpico and Adrian Schoolcraft - that would be something! For some inspiration check out Radical Graffiti on Twitter and Instagram.
	11:06am The Butterman: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:04 Will do, Zinn
	11:07am Zinn The Mood: ↳ fred @10:55 You just said it all with “US media shows them…” No further response necessary.
	11:09am alan the painter: Yes, u tha one, thankey,,,
	11:12am Chris Hiatt: Holy crap, I wish I could go to that BAM performance...
	11:12am Dance the Blues: I love Archie Shepp but he played a free show in Tompkins Square last year and he was just too old. It bummed me out.
	11:15am Trouble: steve swallow in conversation with hoboken library garden state jazz greats april 5 register here: bit.ly/GSJGSteveSwallow
	11:17am nowIrishPaul: Good Morning Trouble!! It wonderful listen to your program, good for my soul! See you soon! x
	11:18am Trouble: hellllo my irish friend paul!!
	11:24am G: Sounds a lot like Innercity Bluers
	11:27am Zinn The Mood: ↳ G @11:24 Does!
	11:28am Fred And Alan: Hello Trouble Great show
	11:32am prof.fuzz: hi alan and fred!
	11:33am Fred And Alan: Hi professor. How are you
	11:34am prof.fuzz: ↳ Fred And Alan @11:33 doing alright today. classes over until next week. gonna listen to some music, play some music, and maybe ride my skateboard a bit. a good day ahead...
	11:34am love2laf: ↳ Fred And Alan @11:28 Isn't it though? Trouble has really knocked it out of the park musically today.
	11:35am Fred And Alan: We are working
	11:35am Handy Haversack: prof.!

This Is The Modern World with Trouble: Playlist from March 30, 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.

Listener comments!
	8:58am Handy Haversack: Bright Thursday greetings, Trouble and all the Troubled! Trouble, I owe you an e-mail (I was out of town), but let me say here that it was a real joy to meet you in person during Marathon! Also: LOVE Leanora Carrington. Her book The Ear Trumpet is a marvel.
	9:00am Robm: Morning trouble and fellow troublemakers
	9:01am Edgar from Maine: gmorning
	9:01am bradford: good morning Trouble & Modernists
	9:02am terminalhipness: ahhhhh, the sonic cleansing begins
	9:03am StringOFperils: Rahsaan the beautiful one
	9:03am steveo: good morning; leoanora carrington is so strange and good
	9:03am TDK60: ↳ Handy Haversack @8:58 Bon mati, Trouble DJ! / Handy, I read the Ear Trumpet last year. Shall we send some paperbacks to a library in Florida?
	9:04am listener james from westwood: Morning, Trouble and all!
	9:04am Handy Haversack: ↳ TDK60 @9:03 Not sure they'd let 'em on the shelves!
	9:04am oshiwoshi: greetings fellow meat-sacs - look forward to another special journey beyond the material in T's capable hands
	9:05am Chris Hiatt: Good Morning Trouble, Troubled. Nice to hear Rahsaan kicking it off.
	9:06am Robm: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:04 We sure as hell can try
	9:07am Lixiviated Life: Hi morning people.
	9:07am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "seventh chakra keynote B (violet)" by "steven hal... Hi Trouble! Ooh: Music From The Hearts Of Space™!
	9:07am Robm: Serious question for the listmind, is there a way for that governor of Florida to keep people there from listening to the magic factory, or am I being too paranoid?
	9:08am Yetz: ↳ Robm @9:07 I was in Florida last week, I listened to WFMU and said "Gay" and I didn't get in trouble for it.
	9:09am Lixiviated Life: ↳ Robm @9:07 The question always boils down to: Is it possible (yes) Is it probable (no)
	9:09am captain beef fart: mernin'
	9:10am Robm: ↳ Lixiviated Life @9:09 I really would not put anything past this governor.
	9:10am Zinn The Mood: Greetings Trouble and troublemakers all. Beautiful track to open, thanks. Have the chicory/espresso coffee and a smoothie in front of me, and a book of critical evaluations of James Baldwin from 1977 ( so while he was alive). Found it at the wonderful Langston Hughes Queens public library branch in Corona. Gem of a place. We were blown away by how much space is dedicated to black studies. Felt almost like being at the Schomburg. And there’s like a museum section upstairs with an auditorium for concerts and theater. Of course this being the US we had to be escorted up for a cursory look because they were short of staff. Which is why we insist; Defund the Police, to Refund the Public. Worth the trip to the library in Corona.
	9:10am Trouble: good morning thursday ville!
	9:11am Yetz: ↳ Robm @9:10 "The Great Firewall of Florida" - it would be pretty hard to do
	9:11am Lixiviated Life: Trouble, I want to be in this vibe all day long. Thanks
	9:11am jdaAndAnoukFromKöln: hi trouble, gutem morgen gang–
	9:11am Fred and Alan: Good morning Everyone
	9:11am Strandlund: Greetings Trouble...
	9:11am Robm: ↳ Yetz @9:11 Yetz i know just thinking out loud
	9:12am steveo: i think i can tell which nelson that is
	9:12am Yetz: ↳ Robm @9:11 Sure, same here. Doesn't seem technically feasable. And people would find ways around it.
	9:12am Robm: ↳ Robm @9:11 And with this going back to lurking
	9:13am Lixiviated Life: ↳ steveo @9:12 I’m ruling out Nelson Eddy right off the bat
	9:13am Yetz: ↳ Robm @9:12 Peace to you! Hope you have a great day.
	9:13am Robm: ↳ Yetz @9:12 Sure they would
	9:13am terminalhipness: ↳ Lixiviated Life @9:09 "just because you're paranoid, it doesn't mean they're not out to get you..."
	9:13am Robm: ↳ Yetz @9:13 Same her
	9:14am Paulo AD: Whats up dudes, working late here :( You can keep me company
	9:15am terminalhipness: wow. this Nelson Patton track just gets even cooler...
	9:15am Zipperhead7: Good morning Troubled modernists, esp. Fred and Alan! Had to drive into Brooklyn yesterday and it was one ongoing noxious, shimmering hell of a traffic jam. Since they're building all these hi-rises, and many of the residents will insist on cars, where will all the cars go? Yikes!
	9:16am Lixiviated Life: ↳ terminalhipness @9:13 Paranoia is like an electron, it doesn’t exist if you’re not looking at it. (Not exactly the same but sorta)
	9:16am Strandlund: ↳ Yetz @9:08 Bugs Bunny had the right idea: www.youtube.com...
	9:17am terminalhipness: ↳ Lixiviated Life @9:16 interesting, hold on a moment while I overthink that (lol)
	9:20am Andrea: ↳ Song: "a feast of liberation/instrumental played togethe... loving this feast of liberation
	9:21am TDK60: ↳ Zipperhead7 @9:15 Zipperhead7: Whenever I take the F Train over to Brooklyn I see the cars snailing it on the highway as I zip by on the MTA subway; it's elevated there, over Gowanus. I don't have a car, don't want one in NYC.
	9:22am Gerry from Miami: Fred and Alan, I detect a pattern here. You start with the Pidge and then hang on a while longer for the show following Wake & Bake here on the main station feed. I tend to roam around all 4 streams and even dip into the Archives, as I did yesterday so I could hear your debut appearance on Pseu's show. Are you planning to drop in on her today? Maybe your jobs interfere, I don't know. Welcome to Trouble's show!
	9:23am Fred and Alan: Hello Zipperhead and Gerry from Miami Will try to stop by Pseus chatboard today as its hard we're working today
	9:23am Paulo AD: ↳ Gerry from Miami @9:22 I love a good dip in the archives
	9:24am Lixiviated Life: Geez it’s cold today. Shouldn’t March be going out like a lamb 🐑?
	9:24am Yetz: ↳ Song: "a feast of liberation/instrumental played togethe... i might have to get this brian harnetty record - everything i've heard from it is soooo good
	9:25am Handy Haversack: ↳ Zipperhead7 @9:15 Shocking that our city govt. and their development partners didn't think that through, isn't it.
	9:26am Lixiviated Life: Gotta straighten up the house. Stepping away from the screen for a minute. You all talk amongst yourselves.
	9:26am Zipperhead7: ↳ TDK60 @9:21 Didn't have a car for the 20 years I lived in the Bronx, but had to get a beater when I moved north. Shopping for one was kind of hilarious. Salesman: "You really don't want a car, do you?"
	9:26am Gerry from Miami: Hey, Paulo! The WFMU Archives are a treasure!
	9:27am Robm: ↳ Gerry from Miami @9:26 Definitely a rabbit hole
	9:28am Paulo AD: ↳ Gerry from Miami @9:26 Beacuse I mostley get the overnight shows live, I catch up with day time shows there
	9:28am Fred and Alan: We were invited by Station Manager Ken and Pseu for a quick interview instead it lasted for 3 Hours as listeners from all over the World now our good friends Loved Fred and Alan,they emailed and phoned in immediately. We entered their ears and wound up in their hearts. Everyone tells us we must share our stories with the World to laugh at us as this is missing from their daily lives..........
	9:29am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and all. The weather in the northeast US looks nice, so there's that. ☀️
	9:29am Bill K: Thanks for this beautiful set. Just what I needed this morning.
	9:29am TDK60: ↳ Zipperhead7 @9:26 Ha! Unenthusiastic buyer.
	9:31am gina k: Good morning all from providence. mourning the loss of my dog Frida after 16 wonderful years. The music this morning started me crying.. it feels good/bad. Thanks
	9:31am Joey!: Great thrill when i met Vashti in the Village once!! Love her and her music so much!!
	9:32am love2laf: ↳ Fred and Alan @9:28 Not laughing at you, ever. Your stories are told with a wry tone, and your stories about the good and the not so good humans in your life are always told with delightful sass that makes me laugh.
	9:32am Paulo AD: ↳ gina k @9:31 Thoughts are with you Gina
	9:33am love2laf: Good morning Trouble and all the troubled. Late start this morning, it was warm in bed, and cold in the house, so I lingered. Glad for the music of the modern world hitting my ears.
	9:33am sydnius: ↳ love2laf @9:32 seconding that we genuinely enjoy you Fred and Alan. I personally laugh at no one but myself.
	9:34am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ gina k @9:31 Remember the good times, gina.
	9:34am Fred and Alan: Thanks all
	9:35am sydnius: now excuse me while I make this western omelette and hash browns before I pass out from lack of blood sugar
	9:35am HyperDose: ↳ gina k @9:31 I'm so sorry 💜
	9:36am Paulo AD: ↳ sydnius @9:35 Stop, I'm starving. Not long till sundown
	9:36am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Strandlund @9:16 Haha, gotten a lot of mileage outta this one the past few years.
	9:36am Zipperhead7: ↳ TDK60 @9:29 It's like the Jean-Paul Sartre for Dodge Dart ad: "In my journey to the end of night, I must rely not only on dialectical paths of reason. I must have a good solid automobile, one that eschews the futile trappings of worldly ennui and asks only for basic maintenance. My Dodge Dartre offers me this elemental solace, and as interior parts fall off I am struck by the realization of their pointlessness. I might not know if the window is up or down. It is of no consequence."
	9:37am Fred and Alan: Sorry Gina K about your dog. Fred and Alan went through the same thing twice. One dog lived til 18 and the other one 14. They were both handled from 6 weeks old Chinese food and chocolate
	9:37am Handy Haversack: ↳ gina k @9:31 Sympathy and solidarity, Gina. It never gets easier. But the good is so good.
	9:38am Zinn The Mood: ↳ gina k @9:31 My condolences. Had my guy for 15.5 years, Doberman/Shepard mix but only about 55lbs. Went everywhere with me, was also able to navigate city streets on his own. Kids would even come call for him! Still think about him all the time. Celebrate how much joy he brought you.
	9:38am gina k: Thanks so much, she was a sato adopted from Puerto Rico , true scrappy mutt. When she was a puppy she looked like Nipper .
	9:39am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:25 That section of the BQE is a 24 hour traffic jam. It's only going to get worse when they start construction on the triple cantilever.
	9:39am Strandlund: ↳ gina k @9:31 Sorry for your loss, Gina...They are family.
	9:39am TDK60: ↳ gina k @9:31 Gina, heart out to you in the passing of your canine pal.
	9:40am Robm: @Gina condolences on your fur baby
	9:40am love2laf: ↳ gina k @9:31 Oh Gina, that's a hard thing indeed. I do hope you take extra care with yourself as you mourn Frida. Hope you wrap yourself in the warmth of the wonderful memories of all of those 16 years. Hugs & pixie dust.
	9:41am Zipperhead7: ↳ gina k @9:31 Oh so sorry!!! I didn't have pets for decades because I dreaded loss. Don't know what I'll do when Zipperdawg heads off
	9:42am Chris Hiatt: ↳ gina k @9:38 Aw sorry about that, Gina.
	9:42am Mick: ↳ gina k @9:31 All our sympathies, gina k - i know how difficult it is. May her memory be a blessing
	9:43am gina k: Ohhh thanks, Trouble this music fits my mood perfectly, full of mystery and some sadness.
	9:43am Joey!: ↳ gina k @9:31 So very sorry Gina for your loss. A sweet sweet puppy!!!
	9:44am Trouble: happy to help@ gina. i am sure you gave your puppy lots of magical days
	9:45am Zinn The Mood: It would be difficult to earn a mention on the long illustrious roll call of French revolutionaries throughout history. But I think current Mayor Anne Hidalgo deserves an honorable mention. This past week, looking out over massive street protest/strikes, garbage piling up everywhere and fires burning in the middle of streets, she didn’t flinch. www.washingtonpost.com... (Apologies for the Neolib link)
	9:45am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "stronger" by "SAULT" Sault always coming through.
	9:45am TDK60: ↳ Zipperhead7 @9:36 Zipperhead: Ha!
	9:46am oshiwoshi: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:45 indeed!
	9:47am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "ashes, ashes" by "meg baird" Extremely glad to have tix to see Meg Baird on 5/10 in Brooklyn -- and with TDK60!
	9:48am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "ashes, ashes" by "meg baird" Handy you get tickets yet? Union Pool ain't sold out yet is it??
	9:49am Paulo AD: Fasting in solidarity with my collegues was a bad idea
	9:49am fred: ↳ Paulo AD @9:36 Stop making up excuses to stop at the club bar instead of the gym, man. I'm not even sure I spelt gym right
	9:49am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:47 Ha we were typing at the same time.
	9:50am PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Song: "ashes, ashes" by "meg baird" Good song
	9:52am love2laf: ↳ Paulo AD @9:49 I think it's quite the admirable thing to do, as hard as it may be.
	9:52am rx scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone.
	9:53am Handy Haversack: ↳ Chris Hiatt @9:48 I did and it's not! dice.fm...
	9:55am Paulo AD: ↳ fred @9:49 hahah fred, I'm actually still working.
	9:55am Chris Hiatt: Ok I gotta wait for payday and then I'm grabbing one. I'll send up the bat signal when the deal is done.
	9:55am Paulo AD: ↳ love2laf @9:52 I dont know how they do it for a month
	9:56am Handy Haversack: ↳ Chris Hiatt @9:55 Sweet!
	9:56am dday: See my photo for some nice lumpy nature Mama Bear & her Cubs
	9:58am Vinyl Hero: Thank you for playing SAULT, a staple of the Duane Train, whom I miss.
	9:58am The Butterman: I got NO problem with Electric Butter… obviously.
	10:01am fred: ↳ Paulo AD @9:55 I guess it's different in AD, but the sense of community in a minority Muslim country might be worth it
	10:04am Spikey BXL: ↳ Song: "the real thing" by "chris lujan & electric butter" absolutely loving this
	10:09am hendrix wolfbat: Omg. Tears steaming down my face. Too sad and obviously amazing of Bruce to do this.
	10:09am Robm: Guliani had something to do with that boycott
	10:09am Chris Hiatt: Oh yeah so the cops owned Bruce Springsteen? That's not the way it works.
	10:10am Acid Cazh: Ugh. There is literally no such thing as a good cop. If you have 12 bad cops and 2,000 good cops who fail to stand up to the bad cops... then you have 2,012 bad cops.
	10:12am Paulo AD: ↳ fred @10:01 Yeah true that.
	10:12am Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @10:10 For. REALS.
	10:13am hilaryprudy: greetings all..yeah the boss is often embraced by white nationalists who think he's on their side...including some cops...I remember the Diallo murder well, then there was the assault and torture of Abner Louima, and the list goes on...
	10:16am The Butterman: ↳ Song: "chicago, damn" by "bobbi humphrey" Bobbi, from Chicago to Harlem River Drive- always smooth and groovy
	10:16am Blacktooth: “Next time call a crackhead.” You know what? I will. A “crackhead” is far more knowledgeable about events & people in my neighborhood than any cop.
	10:17am sydnius: the only thing that ever changed this abusive behaviour is the omnipresent cameras we all wield. use them, keep shining the light is all we can do.
	10:17am fred: I'm not sure who sang that (Kokayi?), but I remember this line: 'They think a wallet is a gun, where I'm from"
	10:19am Zinn The Mood: Thanks for sharing all that background on Diallo, Trouble. Not that that it makes anyone who’s been murdered in cold blood by cops but hadn’t spoken 5 languages and on his way to college any lesser. It’s just that maybe it can instill a little empathy on otherwise uninterested white people who just submissively accept the overarching media narrative that somehow a non complying black person deserves death. Goddaman petty, thin-skinned thug cops. FTP!! As Acid says, there is no such thing as good cops. Not when seven little punks stand by as Eric Garner literally has the life choked out of his lungs - while not one of them intervenes. When they’ve been conditioned to believe they’re above the law, and everything from qualified immunity to the unions hiding their abuse records, it’s never gonna change, without a radical dismantling and reimagining. The whole institution of policing is so deeply rotten to the core in a thousand different ways that there’s no solution but to dismantle the entire corrupt and brutal edifice.
	10:20am Marley P. Dogg: Duane Train’s uncle!!!
	10:22am Acid Cazh: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:19 As QELD says, "Reminds me of the world that we live in again, Police get holidays for killing innocent men"
	10:22am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Marley P. Dogg @10:20 Derrick Harriot for real? Oh wow...
	10:22am The Butterman: I just met with the police lieutenant yesterday with a couple of my art students who will make a community building mural in the station. It’s mostly to be seen by the officers. Any suggestions or ideas are welcome. Arrestees will also be able to see it.
	10:23am TDK60: I positively support the movement against "Cop City" in Atlanta.
	10:24am Acid Cazh: ↳ Song: "brown baby" by "derrick harriot" I glanced at the WFMU player on my phone and my brain said "Derrida Harriot." That would be something, "Deconstruction Dub"
	10:26am Jason from Houston: ↳ The Butterman @10:22 My mind is running wild.
	10:26am Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @10:24 Dubberence, Dubberance ...
	10:27am fred: ↳ The Butterman @10:22 Ask the officers, offhand. Only the good ones will answer, try to make it devoid of peer pressure. Maybe just let it be known it's out there, some mght reply if it's not seen as crossing that thin blue line
	10:29am Paulo AD: ↳ The Butterman @10:22 Cock and balls haha
	10:29am Jason from Houston: ↳ The Butterman @10:22 A line of cops filing past a desk turning in their badges. A large rainbow fills with sky. Citizens rejoicing.
	10:32am MildBill: Love this dub
	10:33am The Butterman: ↳ Paulo AD @10:29 I’m sure we can sneak a cock and balls in no problem. Problem is that some of these cops are friends, colleagues, former students, and current students parents. Good people. Helpful compassionate people. Not the killin’ kind…hopefully
	10:37am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "daftendirekt" by "daft punk" WHOA
	10:37am Jason from Houston: I love this radio program sooooo much.
	10:39am sydnius: “knob techno”
	10:39am Dano59: The rightful anger following the Nashville shooting, about laws allowing guns for mental health cases (how in the hell is that 'a well-regulated militia'??), and reflections this week on Gaslit Nation, on Trump in Waco and the recent Oklahoma City anniversary, had me thinking about several Dan Bern songs. 'Kid's Prayer,' written after Sandy Hook, is really powerful. www.youtube.com...
	10:39am Trouble: merci @ jason
	10:39am Zinn The Mood: ↳ The Butterman @10:22 Good on you. Public art murals are so powerful and should be provocative in the sense that they should allow us to stop for a member to consider what another world would look like. It’s difficult, for me. Because as much as I intensely despise cops, I’ve realized lately, in contemplating the rash and seemingly universality of police brutality during this age across the globe (witness France right now) that ultimately if we wish to overthrow the capitalist destruction of the world and our lives (literally) it’s gonna be very difficult in this age of high tech super surveillance and cops having military grade weapons to expect the kinds of successful citizen uprisings common in the 19th and 18th centuries. I hate to admit but it’s true: we’re gonna need defectors from their ranks. Which is all I say a message appealing to their class status as part of the 99% who are also being price-gouged, have families and friends without universal healthcare, are watching the rich run roughshod over us all. They have to be convinced that instead of being pawns protecting rich white people and their property - and being tethered to a dumb quota system that encourages them to falsify and fabricate offenses - can not be why they got into it in the first place. I don’t know. Maybe it’s naive. But we have to try to appeal to that real sense of Justice that presumably got them on the path to be the overriding thing. And in that sense be convinced to admit and accept that they’re being used for injustice, and that a crippling capitalist system is what is driving precarity which then drives crime. Basically we need a few brave men, as they say, to defy orders and be in the side of the 99%.
	10:39am Dano59: Also: Take the Guns Away Oklahoma True Revolutionaries -- no better protest songs.
	10:40am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "attica blues" by "Archie Shepp" Busy working, but I have no choice but to stop what I'm doing and CRANK "Attica Blues!"
	10:41am Paulo AD: ↳ The Butterman @10:33 Yeah but still, get it in there haha
	10:41am Dano59: also: 'The Cross, The Dollar & the Gun' (2020) by Robyn Hitchcock.
	10:43am Zipperhead7: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:39 Well-stated, Zinn!
	10:43am Blix: This Archie Shepp is fabulous.
	10:43am Chris Hiatt: ↳ The Oscar @10:40 Total multi layered jammer.
	10:44am Dano59: also in the news: Wisconsin school board bans a Miley& Dolly duet about LGBTQ+ acceptance; and: "Administrators also initially banned the song “Rainbow Connection” from The Muppets but later reversed that decision."
	10:45am Peter in SEA: Greetings,Trouble and Modern Listeners, spring has sprung in the PNW!
	10:46am sydnius: ↳ Dano59 @10:44 a satanic tune if ever there was one ⛧
	10:47am Acid Cazh: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:39 The problem is... they aren't working class. "When a person becomes a policeman, he has sold his class interests, he has crossed a class line, he is in the paid employment of the ruling class, he is a part of the private army of the ruling class which exists for the sole purpose of defending private property and profits."
	10:47am The Butterman: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:39 Thanks Zinn, agreed. A lot to consider. I got it covered and will show off the results at the end of June. It’ll be like Where’s Waldo, Paulo. Can you find the cocknballs?
	10:48am sydnius: ↳ Acid Cazh @10:47 “Pull!”
	10:48am Paulo AD: ↳ The Butterman @10:47 Brilliant I love it
	10:49am rx scabin: Fabulouser and fabulouser, Trouble. I must leave to mold the minds of teachers and teachers-to-be. Thank you.
	10:50am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "black love" by "Carlos Garnett" Unrelenting brilliance, joy, and trouble this morning, Trouble!
	10:51am Trouble: thanks @handy! i am trying to clear out the funk, and i dont mean the musical kind
	10:51am Handy Haversack: ↳ Trouble @10:51 WORD! Gotta reboot. Right back!
	10:54am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "mestizo" by "joe bataan" Joe Bataan!
	10:54am Zipperhead7: This set is a SCORCHER! Thanx, Trouble!!! Gotta head out. Peace, love and soul power, y'all! Venceremos!
	10:55am fred: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:39 Please, don't use the French protests here. US media show them as massive outpourings of bloodlust, while they are far less violent than the rightish yellow vest one and nowhere as strong as the 2019 strikes
	10:55am love2laf: This set, this show, this music, it's all the things. Still an hour to go, but clicky starred the whole episode. Like Joe Bataan just said "love and share".
	10:55am Crownless Gander: Good morning! Joining very late and I see the show started with one of my favourite pieces of music ever. Will be consulting the archives later. Meanwhile, Joe Bataan's hitting the spot just right, thank you!
	10:57am Chris Hiatt: Oh my gosh Trouble, this is the show of shows.
	10:58am Crownless Gander: ↳ Acid Cazh @10:47 Good point, AC! Cf. how the Irish in America became white.
	11:00am ?: best mix today!
	11:02am fred: ↳ Crownless Gander @10:58 Not just in the US, that's how Italians went from despised to enforcers in france.
	11:02am sydnius: ↳ Crownless Gander @10:58 hatred persists, if we let it. My wife’s gramma couldn’t get past 🇮🇪, she was abused by the cops as a new czech
	11:03am Dano59: ↳ Acid Cazh @10:47 true, true, true! "Who do you work for? not me!"
	11:04am Zinn The Mood: ↳ The Butterman @10:47 I love subversive art. So I applaud, commend and encourage you. Think it over how best to convey it. One of my favorite radical t-shirts says, “Whistleblowers Set Us Free.” If you could get that in there somewhere with a portrait of Frank Serpico and Adrian Schoolcraft - that would be something! For some inspiration check out Radical Graffiti on Twitter and Instagram.
	11:06am The Butterman: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:04 Will do, Zinn
	11:07am Zinn The Mood: ↳ fred @10:55 You just said it all with “US media shows them…” No further response necessary.
	11:09am alan the painter: Yes, u tha one, thankey,,,
	11:12am Chris Hiatt: Holy crap, I wish I could go to that BAM performance...
	11:12am Dance the Blues: I love Archie Shepp but he played a free show in Tompkins Square last year and he was just too old. It bummed me out.
	11:15am Trouble: steve swallow in conversation with hoboken library garden state jazz greats april 5 register here: bit.ly/GSJGSteveSwallow

	11:34am love2laf: ↳ Fred And Alan @11:28 Isn't it though? Trouble has really knocked it out of the park musically today.
	11:35am Fred And Alan: We are working
	11:35am Handy Haversack: prof.!

	11:39am Baja Joe: As always, wonderful show Trouble. Thank you!

	11:39am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Heyo. Late start today. Loving the set. Got up and dealt with Internet issues almost immediately, Of course Spectrum blamed my own equipment; ran into a guy in my building from Spectrum yesterday and he said, yeah, phone support always tries to blame the end user but in fact they're working on the outside boxes at the new Mt. Sinai branch building that's going up across the street from the 30th Avenue main building....
	11:41am Marie from Queens: Hey, working, lurking, and enjoying!
	11:41am prof.fuzz: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:35 handy!
	11:41am Handy Haversack: Hey, queems, 3Moons, Marie! LCD Soundsystem is bringing out all the stars!
	11:42am queems: howdy handy!
	11:42am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "get innocuous!" by "LCD soundsytem" This LCD is one of those albums that I've never owned, but every time I hear it I remember how great it is.
	11:46am Trouble: sorry i added a space where there was none on bitly link
	11:48am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Trouble @11:46 Yes, perfect. Working now, thanks. bit.ly...
	11:48am Dano59: ↳ Song: "deal with it" by "king cain and the incredibles" Incredibles - you bet!
	11:50am T GRavel: lovin' the show Howdy Everybody Thanks for the great tuunes Trouble!
	11:50am Handy Haversack: Here's the live link NOT run through Libyan surveillance capitalism: bccls.libcal.com...
	11:51am Dano59: ↳ prof.fuzz @11:34 I had minor day surgery Tuesday; have been playing 45s this week to cull some for a library sale donation. Also need to "pick up my guitar and play" sometime this week.
	11:52am Dano59: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:50 is that what the '.ly' stands for?
	11:52am bradford: Many thanks Trouble as always

	11:53am Trouble: thanks for listening this morning! and thanks for the kind words
	11:54am northguineahills: ↳ Dano59 @11:52 i'm too slow yet again... phew got here for at least 12 mins today... feel the healing vibes, dano!
	11:55am TDK60: Moltes gràcies, DJ T!
	11:55am Marie from Queens: ↳ Song: "circuit" by "ami dang" love this. Thanks, Trouble!
	11:56am Handy Haversack: ↳ Dano59 @11:52 It is. Runs through Libyan servers and in general is designed as an-tracking service, not an actual aid.
	11:56am love2laf: Thank you Trouble, appreciate the music served up this morning.
	11:57am Handy Haversack: Alerted! Alerted!
	11:57am Handy Haversack: And many thanks, Trouble, for a fantastic show! Stay Troubled, everyone!
