	9:08am austin: morning trouble in the catskills
	9:09am Crownless Gander: Good morning, all! Like the Marxist theme. I'm reading a book now about how AI may undo everything we know about that, probably not for the better as some utopian socialists are hoping. Anyway, loving the music, it's just what I need today, thanks!
	9:09am melinda: morning everyone!
	9:10am Trouble: good sunny morning thursday heated people!
	9:10am still b/p: Speaking of wealth creation, some kinda Bitcoin joint has appeared in a plaza storefront around the corner from me. Stirs in me a Tom Waits "What's he building in there...?" suspicious-curious-cautious-side-eye and no-thank-you reaction.
	9:11am Handy Haversack: I just started reading Assata Shakur's autobiography, which starts in the aftermath of her attempted assassination by NJ state troopers, and it's horrifying. Really rough going.
	9:11am AlanR: should we be doing deep breathing exercises to this music? buenos días!!
	9:11am Robm: good morning trouble and fellow troublemakers
	9:12am philip: excellent meditation fumio miyashita
	9:14am alanr: you foul!
	9:14am Webhamster Henry: Hi Modern World!
	9:14am Robm: nice music as usual trouble @alanr just ignore the troll
	9:15am Robm: hi webhamster
	9:15am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and the careworn.
	9:16am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Robm @9:14 (alan's response was very funny, "foul" is a lebanese dish made from fava beans)
	9:17am Daybreak!: Good later morning, In this modern world with its modern grading for a modern teacher, this music/set is exactly the kind of trouble that I didn't know that I needed. Thank you kindly!
	9:19am Robm: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:16 gotcha, but i do try to ignore trolls on here
	9:19am Yes: <333
	9:20am unpopularfred: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:16 I assume it pronounced the same as "fool"?
	9:21am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Robm @9:19 that is generally the appropriate response!
	9:22am Robm: thank you trouble for getting rid of the troll @Charles all they want is people to engage them
	9:23am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Robm @9:22 I know, I didn't get on the Internet yesterday.
	9:23am Zinn The Mood: Greetings Trouble and comrades… Yes, that utterly relaxing opening track also brought to mind deep breathing exercises, as the perfect kind of stuff to accompany it. Think I recently found the way to getting the longest breath holds. Which is to concentrate as much on making the exhales as long as you can. Lately on the fourth round of 25 deep breaths it’s been around, at or over two minutes without breathing in. First day of school for kids here. Back into that routine. As any parent knows it’s bittersweet on many levels. But I’m relieved and happy to have this time to myself again. Got some vegan recipe books from the library I wanna peruse during the show; we’ve not been eating so great lately, opting for convenience and rich meals, instead of getting on the right path of eating a lot more vegetables and a lot less meat, salt and fat. Thanks Trouble as always. Your show is just the right tonic, and the community here are just the right folks to commune with.
	9:24am Handy Haversack: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:23 Wait, I saw you on the internet yesterday!
	9:25am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:24 :)
	9:25am Dances with Moomins: The music is magical this morning! Thnx for sending peace out into the atmosphere.
	9:25am Robm: ↳ Dances with Moomins @9:25 morning dances
	9:26am Zip7: Hi Zinn! What a pleasure to meet you and your beatiful family. Hope you were able to find the Appalachian Trail. Next time y'all head up here I'll take you to an unofficial trailhead that has a beautiful waterfall nearby
	9:27am philip: my bloodpressure is very good this morning. due, in no small part, to this chill set of songs
	9:28am Dances with Moomins: Actually it's afternoon here in Finland but the peaceful vibes are going around the world. Aren't we lucky!
	9:28am josh in the uk: I'm really enjoying this set, Trouble. It's helping distract me from a broken toe.
	9:29am D Rok: Happy Thursday everyone.
	9:29am Robm: @Philip trouble has that effect on people with her show @Dances opps my bad
	9:29am Dan S: ↳ Song: "Harbour (Song for Elizabeth)" by "Beverly Glenn-C... Beautiful. This nice, cool, mellow set on an overheated day is just what the doctor ordered. Thanks, Trouble!
	9:29am Chris Hiatt: Morning, all. Loving this set, it's perfect. Just got back from colonoscopy #2. So groggy and hungry...
	9:30am D Rok: ↳ philip @9:27 Trouble's name is very misleading. She's usually good for what troubles you.
	9:32am TerrDE: I'm assuming not the Davis Lindley Kaleidoscope
	9:32am TerrDE: d
	9:33am McGroovey: It's a nice day in NJ. Well, aside from the heat that probably coming.
	9:33am dreamyandseedy: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:11 i read this for one of my favorite courses in college! so intense, so good
	9:34am Dan S: ↳ D Rok @9:30 I agree. I don't know why she picked that name. She sounds like one of the LEAST troublesome DJs on WFMU. Of course, I don't know what she's like off the air, LOL.
	9:34am βrian: Les mouettes ne sont point muettes.
	9:35am Dan S: ↳ Chris Hiatt @9:29 I had one of those back in July. Take it easy on this hot day. Be well.
	9:35am βrian: 60 degrees here on the isthmus. Lovely.
	9:36am Ironside: Morning Trouble and Troubled!
	9:36am Virginia: My cats are loving the birdsong
	9:36am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "Harbour (Song for Elizabeth)" by "Beverly Glenn-C... New Brunswick represent!
	9:36am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Dan S @9:34 Of course, I don't know why she picked it but I always thought it had something to do with the old song "Trouble Is My Middle Name"
	9:40am Handy Haversack: ↳ dreamyandseedy @9:33 I found a copy on the street! After the required twenty-four hours in the freezer, it's ready for reading.
	9:41am unpopularfred: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:36 don't forget about John Lewis' concept of "Good Trouble"
	9:43am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Zip7 @9:26 Hey brother! Was great to hang with you under a shady tree lakeside. Thanks for the invitation. Will take you up on it when we’re back that way! On our way out we actually came upon quite an enchanting park called (lemme look it up…) Ringwood State Park. Have you been? Lovely meadows, creeks, forests; that area where the two creeks converge, creating a little isles between with picnic tables and bbq’s, is a magical little spot.
	9:43am Dan S: ↳ unpopularfred @9:41 Good Trouble. That's a good point.
	9:43am Ken From Hyde Park: Tried a new brand of green tea last night. Republic of Tea, black raspberry flavor. Seems pretty good. Which is fortunate since it comes in a tin of fifty packets.
	9:44am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "crush the flowers" by "the wake" love this
	9:44am dan in wisconsin: ↳ Song: "crush the flowers" by "the wake" Nice. I dig duets of any kind. Reminds me of the Vaselines or Lee & Nancy.
	9:45am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ dan in wisconsin @9:44 a little human league too
	9:46am Karl: ↳ Song: "blue glasses" by "smokey & miho" GREAT ALBUM
	9:46am Karl: ↳ Song: "blue glasses" by "smokey & miho" I remember going to Other Music to buy tickets to see Miho solo around the time this record came out
	9:47am Karl: I want to go to Other Music now
	9:47am Zip7: ↳ Zinn The Mood @9:43 Oh yes! Been there many times. Zipperdawg loves to go galivanting in the creek.
	9:50am dan in wisconsin: The documentary on Other Music is really nicely done. That shop seems like the WFMU equivalency of a record shop. Did they ever re-open in a new location?
	9:51am Ironside: I just started a new job and after three weeks training, it's nice to spend Thursday mornings listening to your amazing show again Trouble. Hope your new school year has started off great!
	9:53am Dan from Pittsburgh: Beautiful song
	9:54am chresti: Morning Trouble and trouble seekers!
	9:55am The Oscar: I only ever got to Other Music once, but I walked out with an autographed Legendary Stardust Cowboy LP :)
	9:55am Zinn The Mood: Re: the name Trouble We’ve been lulled into a death trap, literally, by not creating enough trouble about the status quo. We’re conditioned into prizing obedience, good manners, “not ruffling any feathers,” and “going along to get along.” Well, you know what that’s gotten us? Slavery, the Holocaust, the police state, climate change, no universal healthcare, price gouging, etc etc etc. So, yeah, on the contrary, the only times we’ve reversed any of that is by causing Trouble.
	9:57am 2/3 of the Perrin Family: Good morning all
	9:58am Handy Haversack: ↳ Zinn The Mood @9:55 Like this guy! hellgatenyc.com...
	9:59am TDK60: Hola DJ T. I forgot it's Thursday! Surprising as T.day is one of my fave WFMU days.
	9:59am Dan from Pittsburgh: I know Will’s music from the excellent Know Your Enemy podcast, will have to check out his album
	10:03am Carmen: Good morning! Always excited when I remember it’s Thursday and I can listen live 💓💓💓
	10:04am Trouble: to register for the Hoboken Library Garden State Jazz greats nelson riddle listening session on zoom 9/13 bit.ly/GSJGnelsonriddle no library card needed
	10:12am captain beef fart: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:58 fucking idiot cops
	10:13am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "when leaves are gone" by "ESP Summer" Soooooooo good.
	10:14am Handy Haversack: ↳ captain beef fart @10:12 This is a correct response.
	10:15am chresti: Is NYC like LA where most of the cops don't live in the city?
	10:17am dan in wisconsin: ↳ Crownless Gander @9:09 Are you reading a book by Mo Gawdat by chance? He's a former Google employee, and he seems to think there should be a hiatus/pause or at the very least some regulatory precautions set into place for A.I. Something along the lines of Isaac Asimov's three laws of robotics is what he's proposing.
	10:18am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "komodo dragons" by "misty roses" Ooh I thought we were getting a cover of the Mothra theme!
	10:19am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Dan S @9:35 Thanks, Dan S!
	10:19am Handy Haversack: ↳ chresti @10:15 There are a couple of enclaves -- big chunks of Staten Island are Copland. A gated community out in the Rockaways in Queens.
	10:21am Chris Hiatt: ↳ TDK60 @9:59 It's a great radio day for sure.
	10:22am Yvang: Hi Trouble and modern listeners.
	10:23am Charles in Chicago: ↳ dan in wisconsin @10:17 Three laws of robotics VS profit motive. Guess which wins!
	10:23am Handy Haversack: ↳ Chris Hiatt @10:21 Chris, you should check out Continental Subway on the Drummer Stream at noon. I think you'd dig it. And several cool listeners can be found hanging out there -- and me!
	10:23am chresti: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:19 Most of the LA cops live in Santa Clarita and out toward the Simi Valley
	10:24am Yvang: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:23 What? Some people don't know about Continental Subway yet? I can't believe that.
	10:25am Yvang: ↳ Song: "love is love" by "blackbyrds" This reminds me of DJ Darren.
	10:26am Handy Haversack: ↳ Yvang @10:24 We're having a sendoff for a colleague here today at noon, and I'm already upset that I'm going to miss the Roud!
	10:26am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Karl @9:47 It's so depressing to see that space empty again.
	10:28am Yvang: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:26 The archive will be there for you!
	10:31am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:19 Yeah that's always been my read. It's hard to figure out actual numbers on a quick web search! Gothamist says a majority don't live in the city, and the Post (fwit) says less than half. DeBlasio said it was getting better. These aren't measurements, I would love to find a better source.
	10:31am dan in wisconsin: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:23 Yeah. It's too bad that Bill Mollison's food forestry concepts and Isaac Asimov's ethics for A.I. aren't being seen for what they are. Actual life-sustaining, tangible, and permanent ecosystem preservation strategies .
	10:33am dan in wisconsin: ↳ Yvang @10:25 Is Darren still somewhere in Utah? I remember he was broadcasting remotely for a spell there.
	10:36am Yvang: ↳ dan in wisconsin @10:33 I don't think so, but what doI know? And sadly he's neither on the winter schedule.
	10:37am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone.
	10:39am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Song: "bakom glaset" by "Dina Ögon" Really great drumming on this. Playful, smooth and grooving.
	10:40am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:23 Thanks for the tip, I'll swing by.
	10:40am McGroovey: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @10:37 Mr RX, do you ever attend music happenings in Rochester? I'll be there a lot in the next couple months.
	10:41am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Song: "space & time" by "emma tricca" I thought this was Laura Perhacs for a minute
	10:41am rx "rexy" scabin: @McGroovey I do. In fact, Eugene Chadbourne at the Bop Shop this coming Tuesday.
	10:42am Charles in Chicago: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @10:41 Is anyone else following Eugene's "Book of Heads" project?
	10:42am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:39 Yes! That whole groove was doin' it right.
	10:43am McGroovey: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @10:41 I was trying to decide between Eugene and Quintron Tuesday night, actually. I'm in NJ now, but in going back up there in Sunday
	10:44am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @10:43 On
	10:44am Handy Haversack: ↳ McGroovey @10:43 Seeing Quintron and Miss Pussycat in Brooklyn on Friday.
	10:47am McGroovey: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:44 I can't go to that. I have to spend a few hours in a garage in Yonkers tomorrow night learning songs for a gig in 3 weeks.
	10:47am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:42 Chadbourne is uploading a solo guitar improvisation every day from now until 2025, only available to people who have signed up for it. I'm on the list but I don't listen every day, I check it out every so often though! What an individual.
	10:48am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @10:47 No. Two weeks. Sept 23
	10:48am Jason from Houston: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:44 The best!
	10:49am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:47 eugenechadbourne-documentation.squarespace.com... if you are interested
	10:49am McGroovey: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:47 Yeah, in the nineties I tried to buy every cassette release, but that habit became unsupportable
	10:49am Handy Haversack: CD Player 1 staging a labor protest!
	10:49am Phin The Hyooman: REMIXXXXXX!!
	10:50am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:49 It can't handle the shimmer.
	10:50am Hi from Holland: ↳ Song: "the cross of lorraine" by "lake ruth" Aloha! No jumping in the studio...
	10:50am Phin The Hyooman: Morning, Trubs and fellow Troublemakerz!
	10:50am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @10:49 I like the song but I especially liked that part.
	10:50am rx "rexy" scabin: @Charles in Chicago indeed.
	10:51am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @10:49 I bought Eugene's huge fine-print book, but I haven't been able to find my magnifying glass to read it
	10:51am Charles in Chicago: ↳ McGroovey @10:51 I'll never finish "Dreamory" but it's fun to dip into once in a while.
	10:52am rx "rexy" scabin: @Charles in Chicago too difficult to keep up.
	10:53am Charles in Chicago: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @10:52 agreed but you don't have to keep up, it's OK to just dabble
	10:58am austin: this is funky!
	10:58am theroth: Is that an Aqua Barbie Girl sample?
	10:59am Charles in Chicago: ↳ austin @10:58 Carl Stone's music gives me the heebie-jeebies, I had to turn it down
	10:59am βrian: Carl does euro-disco? I'm confused.
	11:00am βrian: I thought my stream got tangled in transit. Seems ok now.
	11:01am Andrea: That painting is awesomely weird!
	11:03am rx "rexy" scabin: @Charles in Chicago The A Braxton box set with EC is very good.
	11:03am chresti: ↳ βrian @11:00 It is tangled up! Carl Stone
	11:03am Charles in Chicago: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @11:03 Haven't heard it yet but very interested
	11:09am dan in wisconsin: ↳ Andrea @11:01 Yeah, the more I stare at it, the more it looks like Eleanor Statsinger was inspired by René Magritte, mural painter Curiot of Mexico, and whomever did the CAN - Monster Movie album cover art.
	11:09am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:14 I can’t even begin to contemplate the vicious stupidity and arrogance, along with attendant state-sanctioned brutality and immunity from consequences that feed if, of the NYPD (and American policing at large) without my blood pressure spiking. Only way things will ever change is by changing the laws of what they can and can’t do, and subjecting them to outside oversight with prosecutorial power. Some of these bastards must go to jail (and not with a cushion, or a short pampered sentence before being released - what ever happened to that cold-blooded murderer Chicago PD scumbag who shot Loquan McDonald in the back multiple times as he walked away, and then lied about it, which was then covered upby Neoliberal clown/Governor Rahm Emanuel, until a dogged local investigative journalist asked for the tape?) That incident reminds me immediately that one step in the fright direction would be to take away the squad cars and have them walk the beat instead. All these goddamn cop cars are totally unnecessary. The city is not that big, in square mileage. So predictable to hear that halfwit cop say to the activist teacher confronting their abusive actions, to “get a real job.” That’s my line to them. Try it out some time, folks! They won’t be predicting that. But hopefully having it turned back on them at least might get them to stop for a moment to realize that not everyone considers what they do to be so gravely important as they believe. And still further that their chronic abuses and bad interactions with citizens have justifiably led us to want to defund them with an eye toward abolition.
	11:11am dan in wisconsin: Re-Flex - Politics of Dancing. I only know that one song of theirs.
	11:11am yurij: maybe they could do better, but spotify is very generous with its benefits for its employees, and i've met (indie!) musicians who are really happy with the supplemental income and exposure that spotify provides
	11:12am yurij: https://www.glassdoor.com/Benefits/Spotify-US-Benefits-EI_IE408251.0,7_IL.8,10.htm
	11:14am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:09 The cop who shot Laquan (not Loquan) McDonald did half of a seven-year term and got released for good behavior. Way too short.
	11:17am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:14 The cop who killed George Floyd got 22 years and will be in prison until 2035 or 2036. A little better.
	11:22am Handy Haversack: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:17 It is. But it doesn't really do much toward ending the extralegal protection enjoyed by the entire profession.
	11:27am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:22 Agreed. I put a lot of blame on the police unions. The police union here in Chicago is just awful (and I think that's typical)
	11:28am Handy Haversack: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:27 Best-armed gang in town.
	11:30am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "meditation # 2" by "laraaji" Autoharp Alert!
	11:34am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you for the lovely time, Trouble. Good bye, Everyone.
	11:35am Honest Bernardo from Argentina: Hear hear cancel Spotify!!! Apple Music pays artists 4x as much so I rely on them for my momentary WFMU tangents.
	11:37am Andrea: ↳ dan in wisconsin @11:09 Dan- yeah- totally album art, but like it is faded yet hopeful... like a vaguely native american poster without words.
	11:39am philip: Ahhhhhhhhh The The
	11:39am philip: such a satisfying melody
	11:40am dan in wisconsin: ↳ Andrea @11:37 Sorta reminds me of those sponge cake-lookin' baddies from Zelda: A Link To The Past that steal all of your items if you get too close, too.
	11:42am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Uncertain Smile (12" Version)" by "The The" Haven't heard this in so long and it sounds great. And fits this set perfectly.
	11:42am Andrea: ↳ dan in wisconsin @11:40 hahahahahahaha
	11:42am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:22 Perhaps the greatest and most tragic irony of life in America is that the “rule of law” in the “land of the free, home of the brave,” that Conservatives as well as decorum-obsessed Neoliberals get so misty-eyed about, is flouted and trampled upon with arrogance by our “law enforcement” sector. Proving yet again what radical activist lawyer William Kunstler stood by as a truism in America, The Law” is a Lie.
	11:42am Ochre Ogre: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:27 Yep, awful in a many other cities. Sheriff departments too, as bad or even worse.
	11:42am Chris Hiatt: It's not even noon yet in NYC and it's already 91 degrees, oi...
	11:43am Benoni: Playing Uncertain Smile at slower speed?
	11:44am disco_nap_: Hello troublemakers! Joining late but savoring these twenty minutes of luscious tunes
	11:45am prof.fuzz: ↳ Chris Hiatt @11:42 currently 91 in dallas. forecast high of 105 today, with highs of 103 and 105 for the next few days.
	11:45am Trouble: yes @ benoni: i tracked it a little slower but still on 45
	11:46am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Car alarm outside my office is really harshing the vibe on this. I wish I could throw something out the window at them. By all means, protect that precious Toyota Corolla!
	11:46am chresti: ↳ Song: "Uncertain Smile (12" Version)" by "The The" I like this part
	11:46am Benoni: ↳ Trouble @11:45 Trouble, Thanks, I thought it was slightly slower. Great Show!
	11:46am Trouble: capitalism created policing to protect their goods.
	11:47am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Trouble @11:45 it sounds great (your speed dial, not the car alarm)
	11:47am jon luthear: christ, this song is great
	11:47am Trouble: art opening this saturday in montclair www.goldmontclair.com
	11:47am Peter in SEA: Greetings from the Art Room! 1st day of School, woo hoo, enjoyin this The The AND the Statsinger artwork on the playlist page. Onward and Upward with the Arts!
	11:47am Kat in the chat: This never gets old.
	11:48am Ochre Ogre: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:42 "LAW AND ORDER!!!" So, except for the Capitol Building police beating radical rioters???
	11:48am Listener Jonny in MA............. d-_-b: As always, loving the mix Trouble! I don't always get to jump into the chat, but I'm always listening. My home office always has WFMU on. Thank you!!!!!!
	11:49am Passaic River Blues: ↳ Song: "Uncertain Smile (12" Version)" by "The The" This kicks ass.
	11:49am jon luthear: definitely hitting pitched down
	11:49am Ochre Ogre: Sorry, jumping in late. Don't get me started...
	11:53am dan in wisconsin: From blue to grey to black to grey to blue I like watching the sky change its dynamic hue If forever comes today for me or for you I'll not be forlorn for my lack of keys to the indomitable zoo And if that zoo does open up and all the creatures with it too Galloping, rambling, swimming, slithering, flying through Newfound environs ferny florid fountained nature's lush pew Might I find myself running back to church with a lamb's bleat or a lion's mew? If wishes were churches filled with congregations of perched birds of a feather all harvesting uncorked genies’ offerings for WFMU I might as well bait line and cast a few
	11:54am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Trouble! Stay Troubled, everyone.
	11:55am joe mulligan: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:26 I hope Chris Vanderloo the co owner is doing ok
	11:55am bradford: Thanks as always, Trouble!
	11:55am Yvang: ↳ Song: "Cherchez le garçon" by "Taxi-Girl" Un classique de la new wave française.
	11:56am dan in wisconsin: Thank you, Trouble, very cool show!
	11:56am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Yvang @11:55 Are you familiar with Chocolat Billy?
	11:57am Ochre Ogre: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:54 Oh yeah, too often. Cheers
	11:57am Yvang: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:56 No, I am not...yet!
	11:58am Chris Hiatt: Oh wow, we've come to the end. Thanks much, Trouble!
	11:58am listener 126464: Thank you, Trouble. Enjoyed the show!

	11:58am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Yvang @11:57 They are a contemporary band from Bordeaux, but they use some really classic sounds. Their song "Au cinéma" gets stuck in my head.
	11:59am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:46 Fear feeds the security (and police) state, and is the ultra premium, high octane gas that Capitalism runs on!

	12:00pm dreamyandseedy: thanks trouble!

This Is The Modern World with Trouble: Playlist from September 7, 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.

	9:03am Charles in Chicago: Hi Trouble, hi Irene, hi Handy. Rainy Thursday here in the midwest, really feels like fall is coming... looking out over my flower garden, realizing there's not much time left for them
	9:04am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:03 (this music fits the mood perfectly)
	9:05am Rich in Washington: Yay! Time for Trouble!
	9:05am Zip7: Good mornng Troubled modernists!

	9:06am patrick321: Hey Trouble and all
	9:06am Handy Haversack: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:03 Morning, Charles. Please send rain and fall weather east as expeditiously as possible. It's brutal here.
	9:08am austin: morning trouble in the catskills
	9:09am Crownless Gander: Good morning, all! Like the Marxist theme. I'm reading a book now about how AI may undo everything we know about that, probably not for the better as some utopian socialists are hoping. Anyway, loving the music, it's just what I need today, thanks!
	9:09am melinda: morning everyone!
	9:10am Trouble: good sunny morning thursday heated people!
	9:10am still b/p: Speaking of wealth creation, some kinda Bitcoin joint has appeared in a plaza storefront around the corner from me. Stirs in me a Tom Waits "What's he building in there...?" suspicious-curious-cautious-side-eye and no-thank-you reaction.
	9:11am Handy Haversack: I just started reading Assata Shakur's autobiography, which starts in the aftermath of her attempted assassination by NJ state troopers, and it's horrifying. Really rough going.
	9:11am AlanR: should we be doing deep breathing exercises to this music? buenos días!!
	9:11am Robm: good morning trouble and fellow troublemakers
	9:12am philip: excellent meditation fumio miyashita
	9:14am alanr: you foul!
	9:14am Webhamster Henry: Hi Modern World!
	9:14am Robm: nice music as usual trouble @alanr just ignore the troll
	9:15am Robm: hi webhamster
	9:15am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Trouble and the careworn.
	9:16am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Robm @9:14 (alan's response was very funny, "foul" is a lebanese dish made from fava beans)
	9:17am Daybreak!: Good later morning, In this modern world with its modern grading for a modern teacher, this music/set is exactly the kind of trouble that I didn't know that I needed. Thank you kindly!
	9:19am Robm: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:16 gotcha, but i do try to ignore trolls on here
	9:19am Yes: <333
	9:20am unpopularfred: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:16 I assume it pronounced the same as "fool"?
	9:21am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Robm @9:19 that is generally the appropriate response!
	9:22am Robm: thank you trouble for getting rid of the troll @Charles all they want is people to engage them
	9:23am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Robm @9:22 I know, I didn't get on the Internet yesterday.
	9:23am Zinn The Mood: Greetings Trouble and comrades… Yes, that utterly relaxing opening track also brought to mind deep breathing exercises, as the perfect kind of stuff to accompany it. Think I recently found the way to getting the longest breath holds. Which is to concentrate as much on making the exhales as long as you can. Lately on the fourth round of 25 deep breaths it’s been around, at or over two minutes without breathing in. First day of school for kids here. Back into that routine. As any parent knows it’s bittersweet on many levels. But I’m relieved and happy to have this time to myself again. Got some vegan recipe books from the library I wanna peruse during the show; we’ve not been eating so great lately, opting for convenience and rich meals, instead of getting on the right path of eating a lot more vegetables and a lot less meat, salt and fat. Thanks Trouble as always. Your show is just the right tonic, and the community here are just the right folks to commune with.
	9:24am Handy Haversack: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:23 Wait, I saw you on the internet yesterday!
	9:25am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:24 :)
	9:25am Dances with Moomins: The music is magical this morning! Thnx for sending peace out into the atmosphere.
	9:25am Robm: ↳ Dances with Moomins @9:25 morning dances
	9:26am Zip7: Hi Zinn! What a pleasure to meet you and your beatiful family. Hope you were able to find the Appalachian Trail. Next time y'all head up here I'll take you to an unofficial trailhead that has a beautiful waterfall nearby
	9:27am philip: my bloodpressure is very good this morning. due, in no small part, to this chill set of songs
	9:28am Dances with Moomins: Actually it's afternoon here in Finland but the peaceful vibes are going around the world. Aren't we lucky!
	9:28am josh in the uk: I'm really enjoying this set, Trouble. It's helping distract me from a broken toe.
	9:29am D Rok: Happy Thursday everyone.
	9:29am Robm: @Philip trouble has that effect on people with her show @Dances opps my bad
	9:29am Dan S: ↳ Song: "Harbour (Song for Elizabeth)" by "Beverly Glenn-C... Beautiful. This nice, cool, mellow set on an overheated day is just what the doctor ordered. Thanks, Trouble!
	9:29am Chris Hiatt: Morning, all. Loving this set, it's perfect. Just got back from colonoscopy #2. So groggy and hungry...
	9:30am D Rok: ↳ philip @9:27 Trouble's name is very misleading. She's usually good for what troubles you.
	9:32am TerrDE: I'm assuming not the Davis Lindley Kaleidoscope
	9:32am TerrDE: d
	9:33am McGroovey: It's a nice day in NJ. Well, aside from the heat that probably coming.
	9:33am dreamyandseedy: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:11 i read this for one of my favorite courses in college! so intense, so good
	9:34am Dan S: ↳ D Rok @9:30 I agree. I don't know why she picked that name. She sounds like one of the LEAST troublesome DJs on WFMU. Of course, I don't know what she's like off the air, LOL.
	9:34am βrian: Les mouettes ne sont point muettes.
	9:35am Dan S: ↳ Chris Hiatt @9:29 I had one of those back in July. Take it easy on this hot day. Be well.
	9:35am βrian: 60 degrees here on the isthmus. Lovely.
	9:36am Ironside: Morning Trouble and Troubled!
	9:36am Virginia: My cats are loving the birdsong
	9:36am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "Harbour (Song for Elizabeth)" by "Beverly Glenn-C... New Brunswick represent!
	9:36am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Dan S @9:34 Of course, I don't know why she picked it but I always thought it had something to do with the old song "Trouble Is My Middle Name"
	9:40am Handy Haversack: ↳ dreamyandseedy @9:33 I found a copy on the street! After the required twenty-four hours in the freezer, it's ready for reading.
	9:41am unpopularfred: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:36 don't forget about John Lewis' concept of "Good Trouble"
	9:43am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Zip7 @9:26 Hey brother! Was great to hang with you under a shady tree lakeside. Thanks for the invitation. Will take you up on it when we’re back that way! On our way out we actually came upon quite an enchanting park called (lemme look it up…) Ringwood State Park. Have you been? Lovely meadows, creeks, forests; that area where the two creeks converge, creating a little isles between with picnic tables and bbq’s, is a magical little spot.
	9:43am Dan S: ↳ unpopularfred @9:41 Good Trouble. That's a good point.
	9:43am Ken From Hyde Park: Tried a new brand of green tea last night. Republic of Tea, black raspberry flavor. Seems pretty good. Which is fortunate since it comes in a tin of fifty packets.
	9:44am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "crush the flowers" by "the wake" love this
	9:44am dan in wisconsin: ↳ Song: "crush the flowers" by "the wake" Nice. I dig duets of any kind. Reminds me of the Vaselines or Lee & Nancy.
	9:45am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ dan in wisconsin @9:44 a little human league too
	9:46am Karl: ↳ Song: "blue glasses" by "smokey & miho" GREAT ALBUM
	9:46am Karl: ↳ Song: "blue glasses" by "smokey & miho" I remember going to Other Music to buy tickets to see Miho solo around the time this record came out
	9:47am Karl: I want to go to Other Music now
	9:47am Zip7: ↳ Zinn The Mood @9:43 Oh yes! Been there many times. Zipperdawg loves to go galivanting in the creek.
	9:50am dan in wisconsin: The documentary on Other Music is really nicely done. That shop seems like the WFMU equivalency of a record shop. Did they ever re-open in a new location?
	9:51am Ironside: I just started a new job and after three weeks training, it's nice to spend Thursday mornings listening to your amazing show again Trouble. Hope your new school year has started off great!
	9:53am Dan from Pittsburgh: Beautiful song
	9:54am chresti: Morning Trouble and trouble seekers!
	9:55am The Oscar: I only ever got to Other Music once, but I walked out with an autographed Legendary Stardust Cowboy LP :)
	9:55am Zinn The Mood: Re: the name Trouble We’ve been lulled into a death trap, literally, by not creating enough trouble about the status quo. We’re conditioned into prizing obedience, good manners, “not ruffling any feathers,” and “going along to get along.” Well, you know what that’s gotten us? Slavery, the Holocaust, the police state, climate change, no universal healthcare, price gouging, etc etc etc. So, yeah, on the contrary, the only times we’ve reversed any of that is by causing Trouble.
	9:57am 2/3 of the Perrin Family: Good morning all
	9:58am Handy Haversack: ↳ Zinn The Mood @9:55 Like this guy! hellgatenyc.com...
	9:59am TDK60: Hola DJ T. I forgot it's Thursday! Surprising as T.day is one of my fave WFMU days.
	9:59am Dan from Pittsburgh: I know Will’s music from the excellent Know Your Enemy podcast, will have to check out his album
	10:03am Carmen: Good morning! Always excited when I remember it’s Thursday and I can listen live 💓💓💓
	10:04am Trouble: to register for the Hoboken Library Garden State Jazz greats nelson riddle listening session on zoom 9/13 bit.ly/GSJGnelsonriddle no library card needed
	10:12am captain beef fart: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:58 fucking idiot cops
	10:13am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "when leaves are gone" by "ESP Summer" Soooooooo good.
	10:14am Handy Haversack: ↳ captain beef fart @10:12 This is a correct response.
	10:15am chresti: Is NYC like LA where most of the cops don't live in the city?
	10:17am dan in wisconsin: ↳ Crownless Gander @9:09 Are you reading a book by Mo Gawdat by chance? He's a former Google employee, and he seems to think there should be a hiatus/pause or at the very least some regulatory precautions set into place for A.I. Something along the lines of Isaac Asimov's three laws of robotics is what he's proposing.
	10:18am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "komodo dragons" by "misty roses" Ooh I thought we were getting a cover of the Mothra theme!
	10:19am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Dan S @9:35 Thanks, Dan S!
	10:19am Handy Haversack: ↳ chresti @10:15 There are a couple of enclaves -- big chunks of Staten Island are Copland. A gated community out in the Rockaways in Queens.
	10:21am Chris Hiatt: ↳ TDK60 @9:59 It's a great radio day for sure.
	10:22am Yvang: Hi Trouble and modern listeners.
	10:23am Charles in Chicago: ↳ dan in wisconsin @10:17 Three laws of robotics VS profit motive. Guess which wins!
	10:23am Handy Haversack: ↳ Chris Hiatt @10:21 Chris, you should check out Continental Subway on the Drummer Stream at noon. I think you'd dig it. And several cool listeners can be found hanging out there -- and me!
	10:23am chresti: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:19 Most of the LA cops live in Santa Clarita and out toward the Simi Valley
	10:24am Yvang: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:23 What? Some people don't know about Continental Subway yet? I can't believe that.
	10:25am Yvang: ↳ Song: "love is love" by "blackbyrds" This reminds me of DJ Darren.
	10:26am Handy Haversack: ↳ Yvang @10:24 We're having a sendoff for a colleague here today at noon, and I'm already upset that I'm going to miss the Roud!
	10:26am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Karl @9:47 It's so depressing to see that space empty again.
	10:28am Yvang: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:26 The archive will be there for you!
	10:31am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:19 Yeah that's always been my read. It's hard to figure out actual numbers on a quick web search! Gothamist says a majority don't live in the city, and the Post (fwit) says less than half. DeBlasio said it was getting better. These aren't measurements, I would love to find a better source.
	10:31am dan in wisconsin: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:23 Yeah. It's too bad that Bill Mollison's food forestry concepts and Isaac Asimov's ethics for A.I. aren't being seen for what they are. Actual life-sustaining, tangible, and permanent ecosystem preservation strategies .
	10:33am dan in wisconsin: ↳ Yvang @10:25 Is Darren still somewhere in Utah? I remember he was broadcasting remotely for a spell there.
	10:36am Yvang: ↳ dan in wisconsin @10:33 I don't think so, but what doI know? And sadly he's neither on the winter schedule.
	10:37am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone.
	10:39am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Song: "bakom glaset" by "Dina Ögon" Really great drumming on this. Playful, smooth and grooving.
	10:40am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:23 Thanks for the tip, I'll swing by.
	10:40am McGroovey: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @10:37 Mr RX, do you ever attend music happenings in Rochester? I'll be there a lot in the next couple months.
	10:41am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Song: "space & time" by "emma tricca" I thought this was Laura Perhacs for a minute
	10:41am rx "rexy" scabin: @McGroovey I do. In fact, Eugene Chadbourne at the Bop Shop this coming Tuesday.
	10:42am Charles in Chicago: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @10:41 Is anyone else following Eugene's "Book of Heads" project?
	10:42am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Zinn The Mood @10:39 Yes! That whole groove was doin' it right.
	10:43am McGroovey: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @10:41 I was trying to decide between Eugene and Quintron Tuesday night, actually. I'm in NJ now, but in going back up there in Sunday
	10:44am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @10:43 On
	10:44am Handy Haversack: ↳ McGroovey @10:43 Seeing Quintron and Miss Pussycat in Brooklyn on Friday.
	10:47am McGroovey: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:44 I can't go to that. I have to spend a few hours in a garage in Yonkers tomorrow night learning songs for a gig in 3 weeks.
	10:47am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:42 Chadbourne is uploading a solo guitar improvisation every day from now until 2025, only available to people who have signed up for it. I'm on the list but I don't listen every day, I check it out every so often though! What an individual.
	10:48am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @10:47 No. Two weeks. Sept 23
	10:48am Jason from Houston: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:44 The best!
	10:49am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:47 eugenechadbourne-documentation.squarespace.com... if you are interested
	10:49am McGroovey: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:47 Yeah, in the nineties I tried to buy every cassette release, but that habit became unsupportable
	10:49am Handy Haversack: CD Player 1 staging a labor protest!
	10:49am Phin The Hyooman: REMIXXXXXX!!
	10:50am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:49 It can't handle the shimmer.
	10:50am Hi from Holland: ↳ Song: "the cross of lorraine" by "lake ruth" Aloha! No jumping in the studio...
	10:50am Phin The Hyooman: Morning, Trubs and fellow Troublemakerz!
	10:50am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @10:49 I like the song but I especially liked that part.
	10:50am rx "rexy" scabin: @Charles in Chicago indeed.
	10:51am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @10:49 I bought Eugene's huge fine-print book, but I haven't been able to find my magnifying glass to read it
	10:51am Charles in Chicago: ↳ McGroovey @10:51 I'll never finish "Dreamory" but it's fun to dip into once in a while.
	10:52am rx "rexy" scabin: @Charles in Chicago too difficult to keep up.
	10:53am Charles in Chicago: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @10:52 agreed but you don't have to keep up, it's OK to just dabble
	10:58am austin: this is funky!
	10:58am theroth: Is that an Aqua Barbie Girl sample?
	10:59am Charles in Chicago: ↳ austin @10:58 Carl Stone's music gives me the heebie-jeebies, I had to turn it down
	10:59am βrian: Carl does euro-disco? I'm confused.
	11:00am βrian: I thought my stream got tangled in transit. Seems ok now.
	11:01am Andrea: That painting is awesomely weird!
	11:03am rx "rexy" scabin: @Charles in Chicago The A Braxton box set with EC is very good.
	11:03am chresti: ↳ βrian @11:00 It is tangled up! Carl Stone
	11:03am Charles in Chicago: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @11:03 Haven't heard it yet but very interested
	11:09am dan in wisconsin: ↳ Andrea @11:01 Yeah, the more I stare at it, the more it looks like Eleanor Statsinger was inspired by René Magritte, mural painter Curiot of Mexico, and whomever did the CAN - Monster Movie album cover art.
	11:09am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:14 I can’t even begin to contemplate the vicious stupidity and arrogance, along with attendant state-sanctioned brutality and immunity from consequences that feed if, of the NYPD (and American policing at large) without my blood pressure spiking. Only way things will ever change is by changing the laws of what they can and can’t do, and subjecting them to outside oversight with prosecutorial power. Some of these bastards must go to jail (and not with a cushion, or a short pampered sentence before being released - what ever happened to that cold-blooded murderer Chicago PD scumbag who shot Loquan McDonald in the back multiple times as he walked away, and then lied about it, which was then covered upby Neoliberal clown/Governor Rahm Emanuel, until a dogged local investigative journalist asked for the tape?) That incident reminds me immediately that one step in the fright direction would be to take away the squad cars and have them walk the beat instead. All these goddamn cop cars are totally unnecessary. The city is not that big, in square mileage. So predictable to hear that halfwit cop say to the activist teacher confronting their abusive actions, to “get a real job.” That’s my line to them. Try it out some time, folks! They won’t be predicting that. But hopefully having it turned back on them at least might get them to stop for a moment to realize that not everyone considers what they do to be so gravely important as they believe. And still further that their chronic abuses and bad interactions with citizens have justifiably led us to want to defund them with an eye toward abolition.
	11:11am dan in wisconsin: Re-Flex - Politics of Dancing. I only know that one song of theirs.
	11:11am yurij: maybe they could do better, but spotify is very generous with its benefits for its employees, and i've met (indie!) musicians who are really happy with the supplemental income and exposure that spotify provides
	11:12am yurij: https://www.glassdoor.com/Benefits/Spotify-US-Benefits-EI_IE408251.0,7_IL.8,10.htm
	11:14am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:09 The cop who shot Laquan (not Loquan) McDonald did half of a seven-year term and got released for good behavior. Way too short.
	11:17am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:14 The cop who killed George Floyd got 22 years and will be in prison until 2035 or 2036. A little better.
	11:22am Handy Haversack: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:17 It is. But it doesn't really do much toward ending the extralegal protection enjoyed by the entire profession.
	11:27am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:22 Agreed. I put a lot of blame on the police unions. The police union here in Chicago is just awful (and I think that's typical)
	11:28am Handy Haversack: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:27 Best-armed gang in town.
	11:30am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "meditation # 2" by "laraaji" Autoharp Alert!
	11:34am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you for the lovely time, Trouble. Good bye, Everyone.
	11:35am Honest Bernardo from Argentina: Hear hear cancel Spotify!!! Apple Music pays artists 4x as much so I rely on them for my momentary WFMU tangents.
	11:37am Andrea: ↳ dan in wisconsin @11:09 Dan- yeah- totally album art, but like it is faded yet hopeful... like a vaguely native american poster without words.
	11:39am philip: Ahhhhhhhhh The The
	11:39am philip: such a satisfying melody
	11:40am dan in wisconsin: ↳ Andrea @11:37 Sorta reminds me of those sponge cake-lookin' baddies from Zelda: A Link To The Past that steal all of your items if you get too close, too.
	11:42am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Uncertain Smile (12" Version)" by "The The" Haven't heard this in so long and it sounds great. And fits this set perfectly.
	11:42am Andrea: ↳ dan in wisconsin @11:40 hahahahahahaha
	11:42am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:22 Perhaps the greatest and most tragic irony of life in America is that the “rule of law” in the “land of the free, home of the brave,” that Conservatives as well as decorum-obsessed Neoliberals get so misty-eyed about, is flouted and trampled upon with arrogance by our “law enforcement” sector. Proving yet again what radical activist lawyer William Kunstler stood by as a truism in America, The Law” is a Lie.
	11:42am Ochre Ogre: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:27 Yep, awful in a many other cities. Sheriff departments too, as bad or even worse.

	11:46am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Car alarm outside my office is really harshing the vibe on this. I wish I could throw something out the window at them. By all means, protect that precious Toyota Corolla!
	11:46am chresti: ↳ Song: "Uncertain Smile (12" Version)" by "The The" I like this part
	11:46am Benoni: ↳ Trouble @11:45 Trouble, Thanks, I thought it was slightly slower. Great Show!
	11:46am Trouble: capitalism created policing to protect their goods.
	11:47am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Trouble @11:45 it sounds great (your speed dial, not the car alarm)
	11:47am jon luthear: christ, this song is great

	11:49am jon luthear: definitely hitting pitched down
	11:49am Ochre Ogre: Sorry, jumping in late. Don't get me started...
	11:53am dan in wisconsin: From blue to grey to black to grey to blue I like watching the sky change its dynamic hue If forever comes today for me or for you I'll not be forlorn for my lack of keys to the indomitable zoo And if that zoo does open up and all the creatures with it too Galloping, rambling, swimming, slithering, flying through Newfound environs ferny florid fountained nature's lush pew Might I find myself running back to church with a lamb's bleat or a lion's mew? If wishes were churches filled with congregations of perched birds of a feather all harvesting uncorked genies’ offerings for WFMU I might as well bait line and cast a few
	11:54am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Trouble! Stay Troubled, everyone.
	11:55am joe mulligan: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:26 I hope Chris Vanderloo the co owner is doing ok

	11:58am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Yvang @11:57 They are a contemporary band from Bordeaux, but they use some really classic sounds. Their song "Au cinéma" gets stuck in my head.
	11:59am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:46 Fear feeds the security (and police) state, and is the ultra premium, high octane gas that Capitalism runs on!
