	🥀 3:01pm Michael 98145: Howdy do, All

	🥀 3:02pm Michael 98145: what a fetching smile
	🥀 3:02pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:00 When are you gonna hit the Massive Vegan Unusual Asian Options Shop? I am very tempted to try one of their Fake Lobsters.
	🥀 3:02pm NickM: LET'S GO! Mona time!
	🥀 3:06pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @3:02 Dude, 3Moons, I barely have time to feed myself with what's at hand in my apartment right now. Getting to Chinatown seems as unlikely as getting to China, at least for a few more weeks. As always, I feel like I'm barely keeping my head above water with just my normal levels of commitments and duties. Field trips are going to have to be through through well in advance!
	3:06pm luka: hello, lovelies. it’s cold and wet out, let’s sulk.
	🥀 3:06pm chris in the redwoods: hi, Mona and everyone! clicky-star out of the gates. :)
	🥀 3:08pm Handy Haversack: Zhora: "Of course it’s not real. Do you think I'd be working in a place like this if I could afford a real snake?"
	3:10pm MTA Luke: whats uppppp
	🥀 3:11pm Michael 98145: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:06 Whoa - take care

	🥀 3:12pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Michael 98145 @3:11 It's all good, sorry, did not mean to sound emergent. Just normal levels of "What the fuck is going on around here?!"
	3:12pm love2laf: Mona! This is as good as you hyped on IG. Will listen to the full album soon. Happy electricity day has dawned here after being out since Tuesday morning. So grateful to have weathered the ice storm and made it back in time for Friday friends. Cheers all, made it to the weekend. @Handy hope things ease up for you, or that at least you have some fun out of it.
	🥀 3:13pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:12 Massive Vegan Unusual Asian Options Shop is in my file of places I want to check out, but so is Oregon, you know?
	3:16pm Destroit: Howdy Mona, hello kids. Happy friday. Tip of the cap to Bryce for being awesome. Candle lit, lets get busy.

	🥀 3:21pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Michael 98145 @3:17 We might actually manage Oregon this September!
	3:24pm JetBoy of Astoria: Good day all. Back from a long slog nearly to the eastern end of Long Island.
	🥀 3:24pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Song: "Macca The Mutt ft. Nick Cave" by "Party Dozen" ft. Nick Cave!?!? whoa!
	🥀 3:24pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @3:02 I also noted the vegan corned beef at Sarge's. It's on the list!
	🥀 3:25pm Michael 98145: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:21 Should be nice then
	🥀 3:26pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Macca The Mutt ft. Nick Cave" by "Party Dozen" Damn it, already over-Bandcamped this Bandcamp Friday, but this is amazing.
	3:27pm Midge: Hello Mona and all! I loved your fill in this week
	🥀 3:28pm Michael 98145: ↳ Song: "Love In Kontrol" by "Prince Rama" stylish photo
	3:28pm kristian b: Prince Rama ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
	3:33pm Midge: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:08 I was an extra in a movie and my friend and I unknowingly got into the van with the actual talent, one of whom which was Ms. Cassidy. We got in and nobody really said anything, we just went with it. Jason Statham also helped us up onto the step of said van.
	🥀 3:34pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Mona and Monaggregates!
	🥀 3:36pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Midge @3:33 I hope there was no reason to notify that Confidential Committee on Moral Abuses of the American Federation of Variety Artists! (I.e., Harrison Ford.)
	🥀 3:38pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:36 not sure about that, i was assuming Statham was shirtless...
	3:39pm Midge: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:36 That's a hell of an acronym 😆. I also love his dork voice in that scene.
	3:39pm ?: Hi Mona and everyone. I just kept a telemarketer on the line for about 10 minutes by pretending that I need to ask Jesus for guidance before I buy anything
	🥀 3:42pm Handy Haversack: OK. Gotta run a couple of errands. Back ASAP.
	3:42pm northguineahills: ↳ @3:39 what guidance did you receive?
	3:42pm northguineahills: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:42 i'm gonna need a toddy for the party around 5-thotty...
	3:43pm Hubig Pie: ↳ @3:39 Jesus wants you to have nice things. Riding a shitty bicycle makes baby Jesus cry.
	🥀 3:43pm Michael 98145: ↳ Hubig Pie @3:43 and a chocolate bunny
	3:45pm Destroit: ↳ @3:39 Wonderful!

	🥀 3:48pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ People Like Us @3:48 How is the merch flowing today? peoplelikeus-vickibennett.bandcamp.com
	3:49pm ?: ↳ northguineahills @3:42 The lord does not want me to flip homes for no money down at this time, Amen. But it takes some prayer for me to hear His blessed voice
	3:49pm joe mulligan: ↳ Hubig Pie @3:43 Jesus likes fancy euro-carbon bicycles with those new 3d printed saddles lol
	3:49pm Mona: ↳ People Like Us @3:48 wow, thank you maestro!
	3:49pm Polyus: I had a roommate many years ago who was a riot to listen to when telemarketers called - it was like some sort of comedy act. His manner was so cheerful and disarming that he could get away with saying some outlandish stuff. I tend to think at least some of the cold callers actually enjoyed talking to him, probably the only fun they had on the job that day.
	3:49pm People Like Us: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @3:48 a bit slow to be honest!
	3:49pm Destroit: Oh this Zsa Zsa track is hot af
	3:50pm walkspot: I was alone in my room and something grabbed me It was WFMU dot org
	3:52pm Hubig Pie: ↳ joe mulligan @3:49 I wish Jesus would help me win the lottery so's I can get me one 'a them bikes !
	3:53pm ?: ↳ Polyus @3:49 It was strangely elating tbh
	3:53pm tom tom the pipers son: now this sounds like '88 ... or '84
	3:54pm People Like Us: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @3:53 it does

	4:01pm ryansterlingvirtue: Banger

	4:15pm sydnius: ↳ DanielMac Listener 272753 @4:13 bordering on Bryan Ferry
	4:15pm CVB from SYR: ↳ Song: "Dream Song" by "Ministry" I feel like I heard this played on WNYU around the time of the album release and I ran to CD World and bought the album. You made a grown ass man shut the door to his bedroom and turn it up so the wife wasn't bothered in her room.
	🥀 4:15pm DanielMac Listener 272753: ↳ sydnius @4:15 Yeah and even a little bit of David Byrne I was feeling

	🥀 3:01pm Michael 98145: Howdy do, All
	3:01pm Harry Corvair: Mona, want to thank you for the Wake & Bake fill in you did earlier this week. Listened to the archive - entertaining and informative. Kudos!
	🥀 3:02pm Michael 98145: what a fetching smile
	🥀 3:02pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:00 When are you gonna hit the Massive Vegan Unusual Asian Options Shop? I am very tempted to try one of their Fake Lobsters.
	🥀 3:02pm NickM: LET'S GO! Mona time!
	🥀 3:06pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @3:02 Dude, 3Moons, I barely have time to feed myself with what's at hand in my apartment right now. Getting to Chinatown seems as unlikely as getting to China, at least for a few more weeks. As always, I feel like I'm barely keeping my head above water with just my normal levels of commitments and duties. Field trips are going to have to be through through well in advance!
	3:06pm luka: hello, lovelies. it’s cold and wet out, let’s sulk.
	🥀 3:06pm chris in the redwoods: hi, Mona and everyone! clicky-star out of the gates. :)
	🥀 3:08pm Handy Haversack: Zhora: "Of course it’s not real. Do you think I'd be working in a place like this if I could afford a real snake?"
	3:10pm MTA Luke: whats uppppp

	🥀 3:12pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Michael 98145 @3:11 It's all good, sorry, did not mean to sound emergent. Just normal levels of "What the fuck is going on around here?!"
	3:12pm love2laf: Mona! This is as good as you hyped on IG. Will listen to the full album soon. Happy electricity day has dawned here after being out since Tuesday morning. So grateful to have weathered the ice storm and made it back in time for Friday friends. Cheers all, made it to the weekend. @Handy hope things ease up for you, or that at least you have some fun out of it.
	🥀 3:13pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:12 Massive Vegan Unusual Asian Options Shop is in my file of places I want to check out, but so is Oregon, you know?
	3:16pm Destroit: Howdy Mona, hello kids. Happy friday. Tip of the cap to Bryce for being awesome. Candle lit, lets get busy.
	3:17pm luka: ↳ Song: "Twist of Fate" by "The Cry!" bass player goin OFF
	🥀 3:17pm Michael 98145: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:12 Been there - still, take care, friend
	3:18pm Hubig Pie: This is such a fun show that I'm never around to listen too. Today's spring clean extravaganza has me busy but with a cool soundtrack.
	🥀 3:21pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Michael 98145 @3:17 We might actually manage Oregon this September!
	3:24pm JetBoy of Astoria: Good day all. Back from a long slog nearly to the eastern end of Long Island.
	🥀 3:24pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Song: "Macca The Mutt ft. Nick Cave" by "Party Dozen" ft. Nick Cave!?!? whoa!
	🥀 3:24pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜 @3:02 I also noted the vegan corned beef at Sarge's. It's on the list!
	🥀 3:25pm Michael 98145: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:21 Should be nice then
	🥀 3:26pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Macca The Mutt ft. Nick Cave" by "Party Dozen" Damn it, already over-Bandcamped this Bandcamp Friday, but this is amazing.
	3:27pm Midge: Hello Mona and all! I loved your fill in this week
	🥀 3:28pm Michael 98145: ↳ Song: "Love In Kontrol" by "Prince Rama" stylish photo
	3:28pm kristian b: Prince Rama ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
	3:33pm Midge: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:08 I was an extra in a movie and my friend and I unknowingly got into the van with the actual talent, one of whom which was Ms. Cassidy. We got in and nobody really said anything, we just went with it. Jason Statham also helped us up onto the step of said van.
	🥀 3:34pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Mona and Monaggregates!
	🥀 3:36pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Midge @3:33 I hope there was no reason to notify that Confidential Committee on Moral Abuses of the American Federation of Variety Artists! (I.e., Harrison Ford.)
	🥀 3:38pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:36 not sure about that, i was assuming Statham was shirtless...
	3:39pm Midge: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:36 That's a hell of an acronym 😆. I also love his dork voice in that scene.
	3:39pm ?: Hi Mona and everyone. I just kept a telemarketer on the line for about 10 minutes by pretending that I need to ask Jesus for guidance before I buy anything
	🥀 3:42pm Handy Haversack: OK. Gotta run a couple of errands. Back ASAP.
	3:42pm northguineahills: ↳ @3:39 what guidance did you receive?
	3:42pm northguineahills: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:42 i'm gonna need a toddy for the party around 5-thotty...
	3:43pm Hubig Pie: ↳ @3:39 Jesus wants you to have nice things. Riding a shitty bicycle makes baby Jesus cry.
	🥀 3:43pm Michael 98145: ↳ Hubig Pie @3:43 and a chocolate bunny
	3:45pm Destroit: ↳ @3:39 Wonderful!
	3:46pm People Like Us: Really enjoying your show
	3:47pm Destroit: ↳ northguineahills @3:42 I’m just gonna start hammering edibles now. For good friday. For Jesus.

	3:48pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Something Scary" by "Zsa Zsa Laboum" nice show, this seems ahead of its time for'88
	🥀 3:48pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ People Like Us @3:48 How is the merch flowing today? peoplelikeus-vickibennett.bandcamp.com
	3:49pm ?: ↳ northguineahills @3:42 The lord does not want me to flip homes for no money down at this time, Amen. But it takes some prayer for me to hear His blessed voice
	3:49pm joe mulligan: ↳ Hubig Pie @3:43 Jesus likes fancy euro-carbon bicycles with those new 3d printed saddles lol
	3:49pm Mona: ↳ People Like Us @3:48 wow, thank you maestro!
	3:49pm Polyus: I had a roommate many years ago who was a riot to listen to when telemarketers called - it was like some sort of comedy act. His manner was so cheerful and disarming that he could get away with saying some outlandish stuff. I tend to think at least some of the cold callers actually enjoyed talking to him, probably the only fun they had on the job that day.
	3:49pm People Like Us: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @3:48 a bit slow to be honest!
	3:49pm Destroit: Oh this Zsa Zsa track is hot af
	3:50pm walkspot: I was alone in my room and something grabbed me It was WFMU dot org
	3:52pm Hubig Pie: ↳ joe mulligan @3:49 I wish Jesus would help me win the lottery so's I can get me one 'a them bikes !
	3:53pm ?: ↳ Polyus @3:49 It was strangely elating tbh
	3:53pm tom tom the pipers son: now this sounds like '88 ... or '84
	3:54pm People Like Us: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @3:53 it does
	3:57pm northguineahills: ↳ People Like Us @3:48 I'm going to need a new Dear Diary header for the TIL about PLU section
	3:59pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Share the Present" by "GIFT" this album cover looks so much like slowdive's "just for a day" even though it's very different.. (i've mentioned this before).
	4:00pm People Like Us: ↳ northguineahills @3:57 how do you mean?
	4:01pm ryansterlingvirtue: Banger
	4:03pm Juli: Here for it
	4:04pm RomanDogBird: "do you believe in angels?" "NO"

	4:10pm SamTheRam: Wonderful, Ronettes into Roger Miller. Love It! Thanks Mona
	🥀 4:10pm Niall: ↳ Acid Cazh @4:10 What this person said ^
	4:13pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:09 no, someone named robert russell
	🥀 4:13pm DanielMac Listener 272753: so much going on there vocally
	4:15pm sydnius: ↳ DanielMac Listener 272753 @4:13 bordering on Bryan Ferry
	4:15pm CVB from SYR: ↳ Song: "Dream Song" by "Ministry" I feel like I heard this played on WNYU around the time of the album release and I ran to CD World and bought the album. You made a grown ass man shut the door to his bedroom and turn it up so the wife wasn't bothered in her room.
	🥀 4:15pm DanielMac Listener 272753: ↳ sydnius @4:15 Yeah and even a little bit of David Byrne I was feeling
	4:17pm Carmichael: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @4:13 Bobby Russell was a country singer, married to Vicki Lawrence for a while. He also wrote The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia and Honey for Bobby Goldsboro. Sounds like he did alright.

	4:58pm joe mulligan: ↳ Song: "The Message" by "Grandmaster Flash & The Furious ... back in 1984 philly's mayor Wilson Goode made a hokey anti-graffiti ad on local tv with himself rapping to "put down the can" and stop graffiti to the background of "the message".. I've been trying to find a video clip of this for decades
	🥀 4:58pm NickM: I think I heard a Vaporwave song that also had this same sample . . . I'm trying to remember where I heard it.
