	3:07pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:03 Nice, Chusidim! I think we've used that before, but that's one we should dust off more often!
	👻 3:07pm jimbrux: ↳ jimbrux @3:06 Um, I'm not actually replying to Phillippe with that comment! Why did it do that? Oh well.
	3:08pm gnarly☮️gnarwhal💜: Jim James?

	3:16pm Andrea C: Hi Irwin and everyone. Just wanna say Happy New Year. bye!
	3:16pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Song: "Rubies" by "Emma Tricca & Bridget St. John" That little bit of percussion with heavy (spring?) reverb in between songs made me think you were about to play "Hey Girl" by The Blow.
	3:17pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Beautiful Songs You Should Know" by "No-Man" Recorded after blinding the cyclops?
	3:17pm burpage: in the land of milk and honey you must put them on the table
	3:18pm coelacanth∅: greetings Irwin and all
	3:18pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:17 Has NOBODY been hurting you, too??!!
	3:20pm Phillippe: ↳ jimbrux @3:07 I appreciated it anyway. :-)
	3:22pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "479 & 460" by "Ablaq" I like these Rainy Day Women better, much more complex nowadays (and numbers to show it...)

	3:33pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ spodiodi @3:33 The End of the World is over with, now an eternity to enjoy Irwin! 'loha, spodiodi!
	3:34pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:31 That rogue!!
	3:34pm spodiodi: greets, Matt!
	👻 3:34pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:07 Sorry I missed this comment earlier. Glad you liked my feeble attempt at FMU entry-comment wit. I always want to make jokes about Muriel's Treasure but realize it's been a long time since that was a staple of Irwin's show.
	3:34pm spodiodi: quiet
	3:35pm spodiodi: ↳ spodiodi @3:34 oops, user error
	3:35pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "The Madcap Chortles" by "Gus Bodenheim" Not really music - but at least "musique-esque". WFMU should set mandates for minimum musiqueesqueosity per hour of programming.
	👻 3:37pm AnAnonymousParty: ↳ Song: "The Madcap Chortles" by "Gus Bodenheim" Roger Waters, Humanitarian. I'm going to have to let that one marinate for a bit.
	3:37pm Phillippe: ↳ spodiodi @3:35 how ya feeing, spodi?
	3:37pm sydniuß: ↳ Song: "The Madcap Chortles" by "Gus Bodenheim" 🤣
	👻 3:37pm tadpoles: ↳ Song: "The Madcap Chortles" by "Gus Bodenheim" and Wot!...he doesn't acknowledge Syd!
	3:38pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "The Madcap Chortles" by "Gus Bodenheim" Have you gotten it, yet, Gus?
	3:38pm coelacanth∅: songs i hwant gus bodenheim to sing: what's new, pussycat? where or when whip it what's going on what a wonderful world come softly to me
	3:38pm coelacanth∅: ↳ spodiodi @3:33 greetings spodiodi!
	3:41pm Crosby in KC: Hello, Irwin and all!
	3:41pm spodiodi: yoyoyo coelacanthØ!
	3:42pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:38 Hey coela! I think Gus could sing old standards quite passably (including personal asides, of course). Modern rock or soul songs, would prob be better as Shatneresque recitations over music - more potential for Gus originality there.
	3:44pm spodiodi: hi Phillippe! pretty well, thanks. how was your xmas?
	👻 3:44pm Mark Hurst: Mr. Chusid. Everyone. Happy new year
	3:47pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Mark Hurst @3:44 Hey, Mark. Just managed a long-delayed reading of the December newsletter. Happy New Year to you.

	👻 3:51pm Mark Hurst: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:47 Thanks, Handy! Happy 2024.
	3:51pm Handy Haversack: Well, just about ready to give myself over once again to Mt'a, the Silver Worm, and pass underground and hopefully to friendly shores. Will rejoin you all for the third third. Thanks, Irwin.
	3:52pm Robm: good afternoon fellow listeners so bummed i missed gus
	👻 3:52pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @3:51 tube safely, handy
	3:53pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:52 Thanks, Bryan! Hope all maladies are passing lightly and swiftly.
	👻 3:53pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @3:53 i'm attempting a little yoga to scare it away
	3:54pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:53 It would work on me!
	👻 3:54pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @3:54 ha!
	3:54pm Robm: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:53 whatever works for you bryan
	3:56pm Phillippe: ↳ spodiodi @3:44 Pretty nice! Christmas Day was fun, spent a lot of time on the road to attend the world's worst NYE party, but overall really nice. Yours?
	3:57pm Phillippe: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:51 keep a snorkel handy just in case!
	4:02pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Hope in Your Eyes" by "Optiganally Yours" Ah they also play Chamberlain! (A "Mellotron", as they were known in the U.S. by licensing agreement.)
	4:03pm Matt from Springfield: "Big Head Fulla Snot" - I know that feeling!
	4:05pm Phillippe: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:03 I think it was a Big Head Todd side project
	4:06pm DanChusid: Optiganally Yours (Pea and Rob) is actually playing tomorrow here in San Diego.
	4:06pm jimphis: https://youtu.be/Fwi9lFrKXA0?si=aW2HNYF9DDnmHiM1 Oscar & Billy
	4:07pm Irwin: De Profundis: en.wikipedia.org...
	4:08pm Hörer Christoph: I remember "enjoying " reading de profundis decades ago!
	4:08pm Laura L: On an Oscar Wilde pen here on my desk: "Nowadays most people die of a sort of creeping common sense and discover when it is too late that the only things one never regrets are one's mistakes."
	4:08pm Irwin: ↳ DanChusid @4:06 Convey my fondest regards, bro! Send pics.
	4:09pm Laura L: Another one from Oscar: "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars."
	4:10pm DanChusid: Probably won't make it but I will send Pea your fondest regards.
	👻 4:10pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Free from the Guillotine" by "Ryan Davis & the Ro... Enjoying everything about this song.
	4:12pm Irwin: ↳ Laura L @4:09 Anything quotable from De Profundis will just make you want to slit yer wrists. Or someone else's throat.
	4:13pm Irwin: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @4:10 There's a lot going on in this song. It's long without being a suite.
	4:14pm Phillippe: ↳ Song: "Free from the Guillotine" by "Ryan Davis & the Ro... liking this a lot
	👻 4:14pm Dan S: ↳ Laura L @4:09 A favorite quote of mine from Oscar Wilde.
	4:16pm Irwin: ↳ Dan S @4:14 Post more. He knew how to craft a witticism.
	4:17pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Congalegre" by "Horace Parlan" Conga! Alegre! Or, something like...
	4:18pm spodiodi: ↳ Phillippe @3:56 good good. sorry to hear about the nye party. i did pretty much nothing (one of my favorite things) :-B
	4:19pm DanChusid: By the way, the Optiganally Yours show is sold out tomorrow night, just in case anyone planned to jump aboard their Lear Jet to fly cross country to take in the show.
	4:21pm Irwin: They're still filling stadiums, eh? I remember when T. Swift opened for them. You could barely hear her sing because the audience was stomping LOUDLY for OY.
	4:22pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ DanChusid @4:19 My jet's in the shop anyway.
	4:22pm Laura L: ↳ Irwin @4:12 That's an excellent recommendation for that book--the power of Oscar Wilde. Here's another one: "I can resist anything except temptation." These are quotes on pencils I bought in Dublin.
	👻 4:22pm Listener Jonny in MA............. d-_-b: ↳ Song: "OB Joint" by "Mitchum Yacoub" gawtDAMN!!!! blow that sax bruther!
	4:22pm Irwin: ↳ Chris Hiatt @4:22 Chris, Chris ... If you need to borrow a jet, just ask!
	👻 4:23pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Irwin @4:13 I marked the Bandcamp page. Will return to it. Don't know him at all.
	4:24pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ DanChusid @4:19 I'll just pull a Mr. Burns, take them to me in my Lear Jet and get a private performance! (They shouldn't press charges, as long as I let them go before their next scheduled show. And give them full access to M&Ms in their choice of colors.)
	👻 4:24pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Robm @3:54 Thanks for the support. I do feel better.
	👻 4:25pm Listener Jonny in MA............. d-_-b: ↳ Song: "Oh No (Lumpy Money Composite)" by "Frank Zappa & ... gorgeous. i love this. This was actually the first CD I bought when I was moving away from casettes to CDs 30 years ago. I was so not ready for Zappa. :) I loved it, but I had no idea what I was listening to. :)
	👻 4:26pm rrg: ↳ Song: "Oh No (Lumpy Money Composite)" by "Frank Zappa & ... Ain't heard this in a long time. Thank you.
	4:26pm Irwin: ↳ Listener Jonny in MA............. d-_-b @4:25 No one knows what they're listening to here. It's a special edit by Sport Murphy from four different sources.
	4:27pm Phillippe: ↳ spodiodi @4:18 That would've been my preference actually. First NYE party that I've ever attended that didn't have music. I tried to passive-aggressively prod the host into playing some tunes by asking him what he thought of the speakers he had by his entertainment unit and he said he liked them when he used them but hadn't hooked them up since he moved into the house. In 2017...
	4:28pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Phillippe @4:27 🙄 Looooongest Eve of the year, it seems. (Fortunately that year was soon over with!)
	4:29pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @4:24 Sorry you got the bug. It keeps on keeping on.
	4:29pm Phillippe: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:28 sure felt like it!
	4:30pm KWilde: Love Buckaroo Holiday
	4:31pm Rich in Washington: That Lumpy Money box set from a few years back is wonderful.
	4:32pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Oh No (Lumpy Money Composite)" by "Frank Zappa & ... Wow, practically like a "Shelby" remix/rebuild - it's its own thing (and probably an improvement on the originals).
	4:33pm spodiodi: ↳ Phillippe @4:27 "i don't like music" 2017 seems like it was yesterday, but still, what a shame
	4:34pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Irwin @4:22 Is there an WFMU staff jet parked at TEB I can use?
	4:36pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Chris Hiatt @4:34 WFMU is close enough to the Hudson, they should keep a Catalina or seaplane docked for quick transport at all times.
	4:41pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "The Last Drop" by "The Joy Formidable" Haven't heard this band in a hot minute
	4:41pm F.Z.: My lyrics will set you Ass holeFREE!
	4:42pm Phillippe: ↳ spodiodi @4:33 It felt like making a delivery to a bar three hours before it opened. I think I'd die without spending at least half of my day listening to music. I have speakers in every room except for the little bathroom we crammed under the staircase.
	4:43pm bixa: ↳ Song: "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" by "Two Guys in ... i'm a sucker for this one
	4:43pm Irwin: ↳ Song: "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" by "Two Guys in ... Check out this whole album. It's outta nowhere, and it's gorgeous.
	4:45pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" by "Two Guys in ... Who are these Two Guys in Wendell? Of course it's been done before, and specifically this Tapestry arrangement before - but I still like their heartfelt rendition and smooth harmonies.
	4:46pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @4:43 "Vocal duo formed in 2018, in Wendell, Massachusetts. Musically centered on contemporary classics and Broadway standards. Their first album was released in 2022." NEW guys! Just seem like true indie musicians who release what they like to record!
	4:47pm Acid Cazh: ↳ Song: "Find Me Now" by "Reigning Sound" Saw these guys at Maxwell's not long before it closed, it was the last show I saw there.
	👻 4:47pm rrg: ↳ Irwin @4:43 $15.65 gets your their ENTIRE 15-album digital catalogue. Such a deal!
	4:48pm Acid Cazh: ↳ Acid Cazh @4:47 Greg Cartwright is a genius.
	4:48pm Bob Barth: Afternoon Irwin. Hey everybody.
	4:48pm Mister Dobalina: 3 4 5 6 !!!!
	4:49pm Late Bloomer: Ha!
	4:50pm Matt from Springfield: Delbarton and Bodenheim Approved™ Mental Health Line!! :D
	4:50pm Ochre Ogre: 09876543211234567890
	4:51pm The Oscar: ↳ Song: "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" by "Two Guys in ... Catching up on this! My folks used to live in Wendell, and it seems like a perfect place to record a lovely little pop record.
	4:53pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Ochre Ogre @4:50 That would be for bipolar disorder, running the whole spectrum and just ending up where you started again.
	4:53pm spodiodi: ↳ Song: "Burn and Rob" by "Princess" 🔥
	👻 4:53pm βrian: I bet that joulerie was electrifying.
	👻 4:53pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Song: "Burn and Rob" by "Princess" Princess! long time no hear. thanks, Irwin. this was a great live set and i went and grabbed their album after.
	4:54pm Artie: ↳ Song: "Burn and Rob" by "Princess" Paleface cover
	4:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "The Last Time Around" by "The Del-Vetts" Complete lift from the yARdbiRdS 'Mr. You're a Better Man Than I'. Is how you craft an eternal Nugget.
	4:56pm Handy Haversack: Real nice "Burn and Rob" there. Great to come home to.
	4:57pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Zeruko atea joz (Knocking on Heaven's Door)" by "... Basq in some more Basque rock!!
	4:57pm sami: burn and rob ruled
	4:57pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:56 Only so many notes, and it's worthwhile to reuse the good ones. Hey RevRab!
	4:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Oh No (Lumpy Money Composite)" by "Frank Zappa & ... 'Snarky lyrics' - as in widely regarded as Frank's response to Lennon's 'All You Need Is Love'.
	👻 4:58pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Zeruko atea joz (Knocking on Heaven's Door)" by "... Damn it now I want this record again and the shipping is a pretty penny.
	4:58pm ackthpfft: Burn & Rob is a cover IIRC, Paleface did it originally
	4:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:57 ...well ...I still wanna be JeffBeck in 1966. I don't know if it's an atavistic gene or whut it is with me...
	👻 5:02pm Karl: ↳ Song: "Psychiatric office answering machine" by "unknown" Hey this might have been from "Hold Purgatory" by my friend Aaron Arntz
	5:04pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:56 The silver chariot delivered a Handy Haversack back to Brooklyn, whew! It's real touch and go out there today.
	👻 5:06pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): Irwin, after I mentioned Muriel's Treasure in an earlier comment I had a vivid memory of emailing you a Muppet pigs calypso track for a show long ago. And I found it. I hadn't thought about that in years, but it was etched in my memory just like your story about scrawl. wfmu.org...
	👻 5:06pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:06 Where were you when Irwin played "Pig Calypso"?
	5:06pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "For Your Sister" by "Scrawl" Ain't no Messiaher..you're my sister...
	👻 5:07pm rrg: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @4:58 Just get the digital download. Lossless, and it's much cheaper.
	5:07pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Chris Hiatt @5:04 For reals!
	👻 5:08pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ rrg @5:07 I know but I'm a material guy. I have so much digital music across multiple drives and clouds I just know it will all be gone someday.
	5:09pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Surfer Girl" by "Vulfmon & Drew Taubenfeld" Wow, lovely "Surfer Girl". It's like "surf"...or possibly "beach" music...
	5:10pm cranapple: Your scrawl origin story is now mine.
	👻 5:11pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:09 It was super nice, wasn't it?
	5:11pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:11 For sure! Every "civilized" song deserves a nice instro take on it like that!
	5:12pm Irwin: ↳ cranapple @5:10 I plagied it from you, cran!
	5:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:09 It was like 'Sleepwalk' a la Santo & Johnny with the pedal steel. What do you call that kinda Music ? Or 'Friends of Dean Martinez' ...who were coincident with the Lounge revival just then ...but...
	5:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:13 ...if not Surfing Genre, then Genre Surfing. & we're done here I suppose...
	5:19pm Crosby in KC: Thanks Irwin. Gotta run early. Take care everyone.
	5:20pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:17 If not "surf rock", that beaut sound is nearly like a Western guitar melody - "sleep Western", "dreamtime Western" perhaps..
	5:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:20 Oh yes that's getting there ...now, someone had a guest like that ...Joe McGasko maybe...
	5:25pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:23 And so this would mean that (California) Surf Rock itself has DNA from (Country&) Western tunes? Makes sense when you think about it. Spanish, British Isles, indigenous American - add eastern Mediterranean folk to its development...
	5:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:25 Well - Slide Gittar origins fought over between Mississippi & Hawai'i so to speak... Mighta been Magic Tuber Stringband : www.wfmu.org...
	5:31pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Martina" by "Lou Perez & His Orchestra" Rescued a song from 'buffer' material refuse! And renovated it for the collective digital hive-mind! Rescue records are the sweetest records! Thanks Irwin!!
	5:31pm bobby jay: A Happy Birthday tribute to Sir George Martin....loved the Peter Sellers Beatle covers.......
	5:32pm Bob Barth: Give me a second to don my velvet robe and light my pipe.
	5:32pm Jeff Moore: You're more of a top feeder.
	5:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ bobby jay @5:31 & Tolkien & Mr. Hearty White.
	5:33pm Evan from Westfield: Most depressing movie definitely goes to Manchester-by-the-Sea. Talk about feel bad flick of the year…
	5:33pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Jeff Moore @5:32 "He only steals from the best!"
	5:33pm Ike: I would nominate Grave of the Fireflies for most depressing (but great) movie ever made.
	5:33pm ackthpfft: Irwin, you need to watch Threads. Or, you could just get gut-punched in a dark alley for 117 minutes.
	👻 5:34pm βrian: What about the most tiresome movie?
	5:34pm spodiodi: haha
	5:34pm Sean: 1984: it's not like the source material is cheerful. If you want something to top the list: Graveyard of the Fireflies (1988)
	5:34pm Binky: I will be needing that Boden app
	5:34pm David Shortell: "The Happy Prince" (2018) wasn't cheerful. It concerned the end of Wilde's life, after his release from prison.
	5:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: What's So Bad About Feeling Bad - staring Mary Cryer Dour
	👻 5:35pm Gregosaurus: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:31 Indeed. That's going above & beyond.
	5:35pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Gus Goes Hollywood, Part 2" by "Gus Bodenheim" 'Buzz Godenstein'???! Cyberpunk picaresque??!!
	5:35pm Sean: Xiu Xiu: the sent down girl. Since ike stole my #1
	5:36pm Ike: ↳ ackthpfft @5:33 I’ve occasionally thought about watching Threads, but given how much my subconscious is already haunted by The Day After, I’ve elected not to.
	5:37pm ackthpfft: ↳ Ike @5:36 Threads is worse, by far. Recently re-released on Blu-Ray. Not kidding.
	5:38pm Handy Haversack: OK, this hour just got a whole lot happier. Cheers, Irwineers!
	👻 5:40pm βrian: Ok, I'll answer myself, as I do at 4 in the morning: The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser "Buh twhy?"
	5:40pm Matt from Springfield: Alan Clarke's "Elephant", despite depicting the worst of The Troubles, is more surreal than depressing. But certainly gets the nod for most controversial "TV film" of all time.
	5:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Smokey Roads" by "Tommy James & the Shondells" Tommy J ...such an infamous acidhead...
	👻 5:40pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Irwin and all!!! Happy New Year!!!! Been listening, but finally sat down for a minute
	5:41pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Smokey Roads" by "Tommy James & the Shondells" Catalogue track from Crimson & Clover - well done!
	5:45pm Irwin: ↳ Song: "Rotation Suggesting Permanence" by "Francesca Gaz... Was trying to figure out who this singer reminds me of. Just hit me: Linda Perhacs.
	👻 5:46pm βrian: ↳ Song: "Rotation Suggesting Permanence" by "Francesca Gaz... Much nicer than Soylent Lilac.
	5:46pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @5:45 Suppose you took a Parallelogram - and rotated it 360 degrees?
	5:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Rotation Suggesting Permanence" by "Francesca Gaz... Lovely. What an instrument.
	5:48pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Rotation Suggesting Permanence" by "Francesca Gaz... It's mind boggling how many layers there are to this, and they're all perched on a tightrope.
	5:49pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Irwin @5:45 Yeah, good call.
	👻 5:50pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Irwin @5:45 It was lovely.
	5:51pm Phillippe: ↳ Song: "Pale Blue Night" by "Sam Burton" I so love this
	👻 5:54pm Listener Jonny in MA............. d-_-b: ↳ Song: "Arab Dance (Tchaikovsky)" by "Mr. Ho's Orchestrot... i just saw the nutcracker!
	5:55pm Erica from Cranford: Thanks, Irwin! Happy New Year!
	5:55pm JB: ↳ Song: "Arab Dance (Tchaikovsky)" by "Mr. Ho's Orchestrot... My daughter was just in the Nutcracker! She was the mouse king
	5:55pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:29 Besides some imitation of the Hawaiian steel guitar sound, the "feedback" loop of mainland America to Hawaii and back to the mainland likewise deserves credit for the Surf Rock sound. Much like Kurosawa, bringing Western flicks to samurai films and sending them right back to Western flicks.
	👻 5:56pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Arab Dance (Tchaikovsky)" by "Mr. Ho's Orchestrot... Hooray for Mr. Ho & co.
	5:56pm Chris Hiatt: Lovely sets, Mr. Chusid. Thank you.

	3:07pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:03 Nice, Chusidim! I think we've used that before, but that's one we should dust off more often!
	👻 3:07pm jimbrux: ↳ jimbrux @3:06 Um, I'm not actually replying to Phillippe with that comment! Why did it do that? Oh well.

	3:16pm Andrea C: Hi Irwin and everyone. Just wanna say Happy New Year. bye!
	3:16pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Song: "Rubies" by "Emma Tricca & Bridget St. John" That little bit of percussion with heavy (spring?) reverb in between songs made me think you were about to play "Hey Girl" by The Blow.
	3:17pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Beautiful Songs You Should Know" by "No-Man" Recorded after blinding the cyclops?
	3:17pm burpage: in the land of milk and honey you must put them on the table

	3:34pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:31 That rogue!!
	3:34pm spodiodi: greets, Matt!
	👻 3:34pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:07 Sorry I missed this comment earlier. Glad you liked my feeble attempt at FMU entry-comment wit. I always want to make jokes about Muriel's Treasure but realize it's been a long time since that was a staple of Irwin's show.
	3:34pm spodiodi: quiet
	3:35pm spodiodi: ↳ spodiodi @3:34 oops, user error
	3:35pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "The Madcap Chortles" by "Gus Bodenheim" Not really music - but at least "musique-esque". WFMU should set mandates for minimum musiqueesqueosity per hour of programming.
	👻 3:37pm AnAnonymousParty: ↳ Song: "The Madcap Chortles" by "Gus Bodenheim" Roger Waters, Humanitarian. I'm going to have to let that one marinate for a bit.

	3:38pm coelacanth∅: ↳ spodiodi @3:33 greetings spodiodi!
	3:41pm Crosby in KC: Hello, Irwin and all!
	3:41pm spodiodi: yoyoyo coelacanthØ!
	3:42pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:38 Hey coela! I think Gus could sing old standards quite passably (including personal asides, of course). Modern rock or soul songs, would prob be better as Shatneresque recitations over music - more potential for Gus originality there.
	3:44pm spodiodi: hi Phillippe! pretty well, thanks. how was your xmas?
	👻 3:44pm Mark Hurst: Mr. Chusid. Everyone. Happy new year
	3:47pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Mark Hurst @3:44 Hey, Mark. Just managed a long-delayed reading of the December newsletter. Happy New Year to you.

	3:51pm Handy Haversack: Well, just about ready to give myself over once again to Mt'a, the Silver Worm, and pass underground and hopefully to friendly shores. Will rejoin you all for the third third. Thanks, Irwin.
	3:52pm Robm: good afternoon fellow listeners so bummed i missed gus

	👻 3:53pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @3:53 i'm attempting a little yoga to scare it away

	4:06pm jimphis: https://youtu.be/Fwi9lFrKXA0?si=aW2HNYF9DDnmHiM1 Oscar & Billy
	4:07pm Irwin: De Profundis: en.wikipedia.org...
	4:08pm Hörer Christoph: I remember "enjoying " reading de profundis decades ago!
	4:08pm Laura L: On an Oscar Wilde pen here on my desk: "Nowadays most people die of a sort of creeping common sense and discover when it is too late that the only things one never regrets are one's mistakes."
	4:08pm Irwin: ↳ DanChusid @4:06 Convey my fondest regards, bro! Send pics.
	4:09pm Laura L: Another one from Oscar: "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars."
	4:10pm DanChusid: Probably won't make it but I will send Pea your fondest regards.
	👻 4:10pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Free from the Guillotine" by "Ryan Davis & the Ro... Enjoying everything about this song.
	4:12pm Irwin: ↳ Laura L @4:09 Anything quotable from De Profundis will just make you want to slit yer wrists. Or someone else's throat.
	4:13pm Irwin: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @4:10 There's a lot going on in this song. It's long without being a suite.
	4:14pm Phillippe: ↳ Song: "Free from the Guillotine" by "Ryan Davis & the Ro... liking this a lot
	👻 4:14pm Dan S: ↳ Laura L @4:09 A favorite quote of mine from Oscar Wilde.
	4:16pm Irwin: ↳ Dan S @4:14 Post more. He knew how to craft a witticism.
	4:17pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Congalegre" by "Horace Parlan" Conga! Alegre! Or, something like...
	4:18pm spodiodi: ↳ Phillippe @3:56 good good. sorry to hear about the nye party. i did pretty much nothing (one of my favorite things) :-B
	4:19pm DanChusid: By the way, the Optiganally Yours show is sold out tomorrow night, just in case anyone planned to jump aboard their Lear Jet to fly cross country to take in the show.
	4:21pm Irwin: They're still filling stadiums, eh? I remember when T. Swift opened for them. You could barely hear her sing because the audience was stomping LOUDLY for OY.
	4:22pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ DanChusid @4:19 My jet's in the shop anyway.
	4:22pm Laura L: ↳ Irwin @4:12 That's an excellent recommendation for that book--the power of Oscar Wilde. Here's another one: "I can resist anything except temptation." These are quotes on pencils I bought in Dublin.
	👻 4:22pm Listener Jonny in MA............. d-_-b: ↳ Song: "OB Joint" by "Mitchum Yacoub" gawtDAMN!!!! blow that sax bruther!
	4:22pm Irwin: ↳ Chris Hiatt @4:22 Chris, Chris ... If you need to borrow a jet, just ask!
	👻 4:23pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Irwin @4:13 I marked the Bandcamp page. Will return to it. Don't know him at all.
	4:24pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ DanChusid @4:19 I'll just pull a Mr. Burns, take them to me in my Lear Jet and get a private performance! (They shouldn't press charges, as long as I let them go before their next scheduled show. And give them full access to M&Ms in their choice of colors.)
	👻 4:24pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Robm @3:54 Thanks for the support. I do feel better.
	👻 4:25pm Listener Jonny in MA............. d-_-b: ↳ Song: "Oh No (Lumpy Money Composite)" by "Frank Zappa & ... gorgeous. i love this. This was actually the first CD I bought when I was moving away from casettes to CDs 30 years ago. I was so not ready for Zappa. :) I loved it, but I had no idea what I was listening to. :)
	👻 4:26pm rrg: ↳ Song: "Oh No (Lumpy Money Composite)" by "Frank Zappa & ... Ain't heard this in a long time. Thank you.
	4:26pm Irwin: ↳ Listener Jonny in MA............. d-_-b @4:25 No one knows what they're listening to here. It's a special edit by Sport Murphy from four different sources.
	4:27pm Phillippe: ↳ spodiodi @4:18 That would've been my preference actually. First NYE party that I've ever attended that didn't have music. I tried to passive-aggressively prod the host into playing some tunes by asking him what he thought of the speakers he had by his entertainment unit and he said he liked them when he used them but hadn't hooked them up since he moved into the house. In 2017...
	4:28pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Phillippe @4:27 🙄 Looooongest Eve of the year, it seems. (Fortunately that year was soon over with!)
	4:29pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @4:24 Sorry you got the bug. It keeps on keeping on.
	4:29pm Phillippe: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:28 sure felt like it!
	4:30pm KWilde: Love Buckaroo Holiday
	4:31pm Rich in Washington: That Lumpy Money box set from a few years back is wonderful.
	4:32pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Oh No (Lumpy Money Composite)" by "Frank Zappa & ... Wow, practically like a "Shelby" remix/rebuild - it's its own thing (and probably an improvement on the originals).
	4:33pm spodiodi: ↳ Phillippe @4:27 "i don't like music" 2017 seems like it was yesterday, but still, what a shame
	4:34pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Irwin @4:22 Is there an WFMU staff jet parked at TEB I can use?
	4:36pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Chris Hiatt @4:34 WFMU is close enough to the Hudson, they should keep a Catalina or seaplane docked for quick transport at all times.
	4:41pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "The Last Drop" by "The Joy Formidable" Haven't heard this band in a hot minute
	4:41pm F.Z.: My lyrics will set you Ass holeFREE!
	4:42pm Phillippe: ↳ spodiodi @4:33 It felt like making a delivery to a bar three hours before it opened. I think I'd die without spending at least half of my day listening to music. I have speakers in every room except for the little bathroom we crammed under the staircase.
	4:43pm bixa: ↳ Song: "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" by "Two Guys in ... i'm a sucker for this one
	4:43pm Irwin: ↳ Song: "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" by "Two Guys in ... Check out this whole album. It's outta nowhere, and it's gorgeous.
	4:45pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" by "Two Guys in ... Who are these Two Guys in Wendell? Of course it's been done before, and specifically this Tapestry arrangement before - but I still like their heartfelt rendition and smooth harmonies.
	4:46pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @4:43 "Vocal duo formed in 2018, in Wendell, Massachusetts. Musically centered on contemporary classics and Broadway standards. Their first album was released in 2022." NEW guys! Just seem like true indie musicians who release what they like to record!
	4:47pm Acid Cazh: ↳ Song: "Find Me Now" by "Reigning Sound" Saw these guys at Maxwell's not long before it closed, it was the last show I saw there.
	👻 4:47pm rrg: ↳ Irwin @4:43 $15.65 gets your their ENTIRE 15-album digital catalogue. Such a deal!
	4:48pm Acid Cazh: ↳ Acid Cazh @4:47 Greg Cartwright is a genius.
	4:48pm Bob Barth: Afternoon Irwin. Hey everybody.
	4:48pm Mister Dobalina: 3 4 5 6 !!!!
	4:49pm Late Bloomer: Ha!
	4:50pm Matt from Springfield: Delbarton and Bodenheim Approved™ Mental Health Line!! :D
	4:50pm Ochre Ogre: 09876543211234567890
	4:51pm The Oscar: ↳ Song: "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" by "Two Guys in ... Catching up on this! My folks used to live in Wendell, and it seems like a perfect place to record a lovely little pop record.
	4:53pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Ochre Ogre @4:50 That would be for bipolar disorder, running the whole spectrum and just ending up where you started again.
	4:53pm spodiodi: ↳ Song: "Burn and Rob" by "Princess" 🔥
	👻 4:53pm βrian: I bet that joulerie was electrifying.
	👻 4:53pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Song: "Burn and Rob" by "Princess" Princess! long time no hear. thanks, Irwin. this was a great live set and i went and grabbed their album after.

	4:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "The Last Time Around" by "The Del-Vetts" Complete lift from the yARdbiRdS 'Mr. You're a Better Man Than I'. Is how you craft an eternal Nugget.
	4:56pm Handy Haversack: Real nice "Burn and Rob" there. Great to come home to.
	4:57pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Zeruko atea joz (Knocking on Heaven's Door)" by "... Basq in some more Basque rock!!
	4:57pm sami: burn and rob ruled
	4:57pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:56 Only so many notes, and it's worthwhile to reuse the good ones. Hey RevRab!
	4:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Oh No (Lumpy Money Composite)" by "Frank Zappa & ... 'Snarky lyrics' - as in widely regarded as Frank's response to Lennon's 'All You Need Is Love'.
	👻 4:58pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Zeruko atea joz (Knocking on Heaven's Door)" by "... Damn it now I want this record again and the shipping is a pretty penny.
	4:58pm ackthpfft: Burn & Rob is a cover IIRC, Paleface did it originally
	4:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:57 ...well ...I still wanna be JeffBeck in 1966. I don't know if it's an atavistic gene or whut it is with me...
	👻 5:02pm Karl: ↳ Song: "Psychiatric office answering machine" by "unknown" Hey this might have been from "Hold Purgatory" by my friend Aaron Arntz
	5:04pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:56 The silver chariot delivered a Handy Haversack back to Brooklyn, whew! It's real touch and go out there today.
	👻 5:06pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): Irwin, after I mentioned Muriel's Treasure in an earlier comment I had a vivid memory of emailing you a Muppet pigs calypso track for a show long ago. And I found it. I hadn't thought about that in years, but it was etched in my memory just like your story about scrawl. wfmu.org...
	👻 5:06pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:06 Where were you when Irwin played "Pig Calypso"?
	5:06pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "For Your Sister" by "Scrawl" Ain't no Messiaher..you're my sister...
	👻 5:07pm rrg: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @4:58 Just get the digital download. Lossless, and it's much cheaper.
	5:07pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Chris Hiatt @5:04 For reals!
	👻 5:08pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ rrg @5:07 I know but I'm a material guy. I have so much digital music across multiple drives and clouds I just know it will all be gone someday.
	5:09pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Surfer Girl" by "Vulfmon & Drew Taubenfeld" Wow, lovely "Surfer Girl". It's like "surf"...or possibly "beach" music...
	5:10pm cranapple: Your scrawl origin story is now mine.
	👻 5:11pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:09 It was super nice, wasn't it?
	5:11pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:11 For sure! Every "civilized" song deserves a nice instro take on it like that!
	5:12pm Irwin: ↳ cranapple @5:10 I plagied it from you, cran!
	5:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:09 It was like 'Sleepwalk' a la Santo & Johnny with the pedal steel. What do you call that kinda Music ? Or 'Friends of Dean Martinez' ...who were coincident with the Lounge revival just then ...but...
	5:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:13 ...if not Surfing Genre, then Genre Surfing. & we're done here I suppose...
	5:19pm Crosby in KC: Thanks Irwin. Gotta run early. Take care everyone.
	5:20pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:17 If not "surf rock", that beaut sound is nearly like a Western guitar melody - "sleep Western", "dreamtime Western" perhaps..
	5:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:20 Oh yes that's getting there ...now, someone had a guest like that ...Joe McGasko maybe...
	5:25pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:23 And so this would mean that (California) Surf Rock itself has DNA from (Country&) Western tunes? Makes sense when you think about it. Spanish, British Isles, indigenous American - add eastern Mediterranean folk to its development...
	5:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:25 Well - Slide Gittar origins fought over between Mississippi & Hawai'i so to speak... Mighta been Magic Tuber Stringband : www.wfmu.org...
	5:31pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Martina" by "Lou Perez & His Orchestra" Rescued a song from 'buffer' material refuse! And renovated it for the collective digital hive-mind! Rescue records are the sweetest records! Thanks Irwin!!
	5:31pm bobby jay: A Happy Birthday tribute to Sir George Martin....loved the Peter Sellers Beatle covers.......
	5:32pm Bob Barth: Give me a second to don my velvet robe and light my pipe.
	5:32pm Jeff Moore: You're more of a top feeder.
	5:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ bobby jay @5:31 & Tolkien & Mr. Hearty White.
	5:33pm Evan from Westfield: Most depressing movie definitely goes to Manchester-by-the-Sea. Talk about feel bad flick of the year…
	5:33pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Jeff Moore @5:32 "He only steals from the best!"
	5:33pm Ike: I would nominate Grave of the Fireflies for most depressing (but great) movie ever made.
	5:33pm ackthpfft: Irwin, you need to watch Threads. Or, you could just get gut-punched in a dark alley for 117 minutes.
	👻 5:34pm βrian: What about the most tiresome movie?
	5:34pm spodiodi: haha
	5:34pm Sean: 1984: it's not like the source material is cheerful. If you want something to top the list: Graveyard of the Fireflies (1988)
	5:34pm Binky: I will be needing that Boden app
	5:34pm David Shortell: "The Happy Prince" (2018) wasn't cheerful. It concerned the end of Wilde's life, after his release from prison.
	5:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: What's So Bad About Feeling Bad - staring Mary Cryer Dour
	👻 5:35pm Gregosaurus: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:31 Indeed. That's going above & beyond.
	5:35pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Gus Goes Hollywood, Part 2" by "Gus Bodenheim" 'Buzz Godenstein'???! Cyberpunk picaresque??!!
	5:35pm Sean: Xiu Xiu: the sent down girl. Since ike stole my #1
	5:36pm Ike: ↳ ackthpfft @5:33 I’ve occasionally thought about watching Threads, but given how much my subconscious is already haunted by The Day After, I’ve elected not to.
	5:37pm ackthpfft: ↳ Ike @5:36 Threads is worse, by far. Recently re-released on Blu-Ray. Not kidding.
	5:38pm Handy Haversack: OK, this hour just got a whole lot happier. Cheers, Irwineers!
	👻 5:40pm βrian: Ok, I'll answer myself, as I do at 4 in the morning: The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser "Buh twhy?"
	5:40pm Matt from Springfield: Alan Clarke's "Elephant", despite depicting the worst of The Troubles, is more surreal than depressing. But certainly gets the nod for most controversial "TV film" of all time.
	5:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Smokey Roads" by "Tommy James & the Shondells" Tommy J ...such an infamous acidhead...
	👻 5:40pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Irwin and all!!! Happy New Year!!!! Been listening, but finally sat down for a minute
	5:41pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Smokey Roads" by "Tommy James & the Shondells" Catalogue track from Crimson & Clover - well done!
	5:45pm Irwin: ↳ Song: "Rotation Suggesting Permanence" by "Francesca Gaz... Was trying to figure out who this singer reminds me of. Just hit me: Linda Perhacs.
	👻 5:46pm βrian: ↳ Song: "Rotation Suggesting Permanence" by "Francesca Gaz... Much nicer than Soylent Lilac.
	5:46pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @5:45 Suppose you took a Parallelogram - and rotated it 360 degrees?
	5:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Rotation Suggesting Permanence" by "Francesca Gaz... Lovely. What an instrument.
	5:48pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Rotation Suggesting Permanence" by "Francesca Gaz... It's mind boggling how many layers there are to this, and they're all perched on a tightrope.
	5:49pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Irwin @5:45 Yeah, good call.
	👻 5:50pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Irwin @5:45 It was lovely.
	5:51pm Phillippe: ↳ Song: "Pale Blue Night" by "Sam Burton" I so love this

	5:55pm Erica from Cranford: Thanks, Irwin! Happy New Year!
	5:55pm JB: ↳ Song: "Arab Dance (Tchaikovsky)" by "Mr. Ho's Orchestrot... My daughter was just in the Nutcracker! She was the mouse king
	5:55pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:29 Besides some imitation of the Hawaiian steel guitar sound, the "feedback" loop of mainland America to Hawaii and back to the mainland likewise deserves credit for the Surf Rock sound. Much like Kurosawa, bringing Western flicks to samurai films and sending them right back to Western flicks.
	👻 5:56pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Arab Dance (Tchaikovsky)" by "Mr. Ho's Orchestrot... Hooray for Mr. Ho & co.
