	9:11am Trouble: i'm more of an 'A" person...
	9:14am Ben in Newark: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:08 True! I know it wouldn't sound like this, but that reminds me of the Mitch Hedberg joke "I remixed the remix... it was back to normal"
	9:15am Robm: ↳ Trouble @9:11 a as in apple trouble:)
	9:16am love2laf: ↳ Trouble @9:11 The things that must be done for Marathon, we appreciate it! G'morning Trouble, and all my troubled friends here in the Modern World. Riding the weather roller coaster, above freezing today, plunging to minus 20 tomorrow night. February is always fractious.

	9:19am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:16 true.... but i'm making a joke...;)
	9:20am Trouble: @ tom tom: we have a very large sense of what is new: it is living in our new bin right now, and we dont always get the new works immediately, so to us it is new.
	9:20am tom tom the pipers son: gotcha...;)
	9:21am Robm: ↳ love2laf @9:16 howdy again L2L
	9:22am steve-b: ↳ Song: "thrice mice" by "stephen lane" wow, what a wonderful surprise to hear stephen lane / vase on this show! his music is so wonderful

	9:23am tom tom the pipers son: actual release date on that matmos was november...ha! on me...

	9:29am Robm: ↳ love2laf @9:26 ohh i am just listening to some great tunage from trouble
	9:30am melinda: Morning friends
	9:30am love2laf: ↳ Delicate Chester @9:28 Thank you, I resisted so hard, and I'm grateful you jumped in with it! @Robm I feel like getting to Thursday and making it to Trouble's show does very good things for my peace of mind.
	9:30am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "cygnus" by "isabel del bosco" nice pairing w/ last piece
	9:30am TDK60: Good morning, DJ T.
	9:31am Robm: ↳ love2laf @9:30 know what you mean love, when i hear mona on friday i am in heaven
	9:32am love2laf: @Trouble I thought you might enjoy this joke, it's living in my head and making me laugh daily. "If you keep correcting my grammer, I will think fewer of you!"
	9:36am Philip: mornin' all troublista's. love that photo of Nina Simone and James Baldwin
	9:36am tom tom the pipers son: englechen=little angel
	9:38am Chris Hiatt: Loved the first set, DJ Trouble. Now I'm out the door. for real. Thanks!
	9:41am Edgar from Maine: ↳ love2laf @9:32 Gonna steal this!
	9:42am unpopularfred: Trouble is largely responsible for correcting my youthful disdain for Nina Simone. I don't know what the hell I was thinking, some loose wire in my brain or something. (I mean I normally have impeccable taste) Ever grateful.
	9:44am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Song: "recordare/jazz reflects the improvised life thrus... I missed this Angel Bat Dawid record when it came out last year - IA has been putting out so much great stuff - so it's new to me! Thanks so much Trouble!!
	9:45am Charles in Chicago: "A 12-movement suite composed, arranged, and inspired in part by dialogue from Edward O. Bland’s 1959 film The Cry of Jazz"
	9:45am Trouble: i love that our tastes change over time@ unpopular fred: it means there is always a chance to listen anew to music from the past. i used to not enjoy karen dalton...and i now think that she is the bee's knees
	9:46am TDK60: Imagine /some/ of the conversation James & Nina might have had in the early 60s if they were in the USA: No, we can't go into that restaurant. Nope, that hotel won't have us. Etc. Absurd. But fact.
	9:47am love2laf: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:41 Take that joke and run with it, to me it's such a gem, glad you like it too.
	9:49am Trouble: good one @ love2laf!
	9:49am Charles in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:36 it would be spelled "engelchen"
	9:50am oshiwoshi: ↳ Trouble @9:45 +1 for trouble's label-free music that regular sneaks past my snobby filter and surprises with artists whose image or whatnot put me off back in the day
	9:51am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:49 ah right... was spelling w/o looking
	9:54am Charles in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:51 Me too! But that's just how German spelling works, it's much more regular than English ... (sorry I'm not trying to be pedantic, I just studied a lot of German and lived in Germany for a while)
	9:55am Charles in Chicago: And WFMU picked up a bunch of new listeners in Germany recently thanks to that excellent article in the SDZ
	10:00am Trouble: an interesting article about nina: www.newyorker.com...
	10:02am Webhamster Henry: Hi Modern world dwellers1
	10:02am Charles in Chicago: (if you can't access the new yorker article try "private browsing" mode)
	10:03am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:02 uBlock Origin plugged into Firefox will zap those paywalls away post haste.
	10:03am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:02 if you have 'developer mode' you can inspect element and turn the paywall off
	10:04am Ken From Hyde Park: Nina's birthday noted in social media — wandering.shop...
	10:05am Charles in Chicago: the new yorker allows one free article per month. if you've already used up that quota, private browsing "forgets" that fact
	10:06am Sera from Rockaway: This story is making me tear up. Love you Nina
	10:06am Charles in Chicago: I have ublock origin but that doesn't seem to help with the New Yorker, unless I'm not using it right. But I think switching over to "private" is pretty easy
	10:06am Webhamster Henry: This excellent (kind of heartbreaking) NS doc is on Netflix en.wikipedia.org...
	10:07am RevErie: I tuned in at the right time to hear that NS story!
	10:08am Edgar from Maine: As I look at that picture, I imagine them watching the debate with Buckley and Nina saying "My heavens, David, you owned that fool like the sad little imp he is."
	10:09am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:06 The little lightning bolt icon zaps elements you may not want.
	10:09am Trouble: effort to preserve nina's birthplace www.wallpaper.com...
	10:10am Charles in Chicago: Sure, but what element to zap? Have you actually done this for the New Yorker?
	10:10am Philip: So great! Love, love, love Nina
	10:12am Ben in Newark: Another way to circumvent most paywalls is by entering the URL into the Wayback Machine, or another internet archiving website
	10:12am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:10 Just did. First I clicked on the pop-up message. Then there was a gray overlay and I clicked on that. Zap Zap 'free' story.
	10:13am blee: whoooooeeeee, Nina!
	10:14am Jason from Houston: Heyyyyyy there.
	10:14am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Edgar from Maine @10:12 oh interesting. it took me 3 zaps but that method works too. thanks.
	10:16am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone.
	10:17am bixa: beautiful eagle watching music today
	10:18am Phillippe: Nice tribute
	10:23am rob: REEEMIIIX
	10:23am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "spring is here" by "nina simone" I'll take it even with the CD skips!
	10:25am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:54 sorry for the de-lay, i gathered that you knew german from previous posts. had some friends in berlin who i visited several times and got by on some very basic german, for example, was getting a bratwurst at a cart and didn't know word for mustard but knew the word for yellow and said to the vendor, "gelbe", and made a brushing motion over the wurst, he got it, and was happy to oblige and said "senf"...iirc
	10:26am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:23 so nice, she sang it twice...
	10:28am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you.
	10:29am love2laf: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:25 My parents despaired of me and my inability to master German. For instance, I was lifeguarding and these two young men were bouncing more than one bounce on the diving board. Blew my whistle, waved them over and told them once bounce only. They were German and didn't understand. I used my German and said "Du must nicht boinga boinga gehen." I see your mustard / yellow, and raise you boinga boinga. (also can't spell in German, forgive both please)
	10:31am Micheal: Thank you for playing Nina Simone, Trouble. Her birthday broadcast yesterday on WKCR was a nice celebration. She was a true force.
	10:33am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ love2laf @10:29 ha! made me laugh, i can see how "boinga boinga"might have gotten you into deep water also
	10:33am Charles in Chicago: ↳ love2laf @10:29 Yeah, when learning a language it's really important to not be shy, make guesses, not be afraid to make mistakes, etc. While I was living in Hamburg I had some experiences like this - grasping for words - but the educational opportunities were often undermined by the fact that folks over there speak such good English
	10:34am Joey C: Chills
	10:35am Jason from Houston: [cranks it]
	10:35am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:33 true, and in the parts of germany i was in, they didn't begrudge you speaking english
	10:35am 2/3 of the Perrin Family: You are the best kind of Good Trouble. Thank you for this incredible show.
	10:35am Acid Cazh: Trouble can you please please play Nina's live recording of "Let it be Me"? This one: www.youtube.com...
	10:36am Acid Cazh: It's my all-time fave
	10:38am Reno D: I remember when my niece was little and she was acquiring new tastes in music. She asked me for my ‘desert island’ singer/band choice, smugly expecting me to say Bowie or Roxy or Sparks, I suppose. She was perplexed when I immediately responded “Nina Simone”, of whom she had never heard. I explained that one can never, never grow tired of Nina, because something new happens with every listening.
	10:39am love2laf: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:33 Germans I have known all have an appreciation for the difficulty in learning a language, it does make it easy to take chances, use 'guess' words and hand motions. @tom tom believe me, 16 year old me blushed furiously afterwards, and I have never been the blushing type.
	10:39am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:35 in berlin an elderly man came up to me, when he found out i was american and said with a sense of wonder on his face, "are you from tennesee" like that was the most magical thing imaginable
	10:43am still b/p: ↳ Song: "just in time" by "nina simone" Nice to hear this with a whoooole different flavor from the ingenue-y-est and man-crooniest renditions, which are often fine but from another universe.
	10:44am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Song: "rich girl" by "nina simone" This set is great, Trouble! I haven't heard a lot of these before
	10:44am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Oh wow I had no idea she covered H&O.
	10:44am mariano: ↳ Song: "rich girl" by "nina simone" Whoa, she covered Hall & Oates?!
	10:44am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "rich girl" by "nina simone" nina's version is so literal and pointed...excellent
	10:44am bixa: folks, we got two eagles: www.youtube.com...
	10:45am mariano: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:44 Jinx!
	10:45am Micheal: ↳ Song: "rich girl" by "nina simone" Nina Simone owned every cover she ever did!
	10:45am Noir Lover: Repeating my comment made during Fiveash's Nina tribute... A voice that stops time
	10:45am Roberto: ↳ bixa @10:44 SWEET!
	10:46am Hi from Holland: Aloha! Props for playing Nina!
	10:47am bixa: ↳ Roberto @10:45 jackie just flew away!
	10:47am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Now I’m craving “Who Am I?” from Peter Pan. One of my fav Nina deep cuts.
	10:47am Roberto: ↳ bixa @10:47 Come back soon, Jackie!
	10:47am PKNY: ↳ Song: "rich girl" by "nina simone" Interetsting info from the "Baltimore" album Wikipedia page: Simone disagreed with Taylor's production choices—particularly his interest in a reggae sound, which first caused Simone to ask "What is this corny stuff?" Simone's dissatisfaction delayed production, but she would eventually record her vocals for the album in a single hour-long sitting.Simone would later recall of the historic barn where Baltimore was recorded "a basement in Belgium where I was forced to sing songs in order to get out of there."
	10:48am andrew cb: ↳ bixa @10:44 thanks for that. I used to follow the DC eagle nest cam religiously.
	10:50am Sera from Rockaway: ↳ Song: "poppies" by "nina simone" Wow never heard this one! I love it
	10:50am Listener Jonny in MA............. d-_-b: I have been singing "Field of Puppies".
	10:50am drr: "boinga boinga" is Swedish, actually.
	10:51am Sera from Rockaway: Trouble, do you recommend any books on Nina? I have seen that one doc but want to know more
	10:52am Trouble: sorry @ sera: i haven't read anything on nina, but i know there are a few books out there...
	10:52am Picante Mint: I'm not as familiar with Nina Simone's work as I should be, thanks for the crash course. I am enjoying it.
	10:52am Dances with Moomins: Wow what a set !
	10:53am Charles in Chicago: not recommending any particular one but just noting that there is a nice selection of books at www.ninasimone.com...
	10:53am Andrea: YES!!!
	10:53am Listener Bryan (the Professor): A friend of mine has a new Nina book coming out this fall: www.dukeupress.edu...
	10:53am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ bixa @10:44 🪺🦅💨
	10:53am Andrea: ... this IS funkier than a mosquito's tweeter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	10:53am Charles in Chicago: "What Happened, Miss Simone?" got good revies but I have not read it (yet)
	10:54am Funkaaayyy: Funkaaayyy
	10:54am unpopularfred: ↳ Song: "funkier thatn a mosquito's tweeter" by "nina simone" shoutout to the drummer on this!!
	10:54am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:53 (it was a film too)
	10:55am Listener Bryan (the Professor): One of the more memorable things I've read on Nina: www.thebeliever.net...
	10:56am Andrea: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:55 oooo thanks...
	10:56am Funkaaayyy: I just looked up boll weevils and they are scary looking
	10:56am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:54 that's what's on netflix
	10:57am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Song: "funkier thatn a mosquito's tweeter" by "nina simone" random fact, that song was written by Tina Turner's sister Aillene Bullock
	10:58am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:53 I imagine the autobiography would be a good place to start...
	10:58am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:56 Movie def worth watching but it's very sad.
	10:59am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:58 (I mean, while we wait for Byran's friend's book to get published!)
	10:59am eric from lake hiawatha: Thank you for these Nina gems
	11:00am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:59 I'm really curious to see what he does in that book! I haven't talked to him about it at all.
	11:00am PaulRobeson1924: cdn.ymaws.com... Link is to ReAD James Baldwin’s Unnameable Objects, Unspeakable Crimes What is History? Where does history live? Happy Birthday Belated Birthday in the great beyond, Nina
	11:00am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:58 yes saw along time ago..iirc there were afew funky mosquitoes around her
	11:05am coelacanth∅: Thank you for the Nina tribute. rest in peace. something she didn't experience much of in life.
	11:05am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you, Trouble and Everyone. I must go to work now.
	11:06am Charles in Chicago: Ok, I can go out and take care of my errands now. Was glued to the radio here for the Nina tribute.
	11:08am Otto's neighbor Dave: Man, it was only just before Phil Schaap died that I came to understand what an education it would be to start listening to his radio show, and I was looking forward to learning a ton from him...
	11:09am TDK60: ↳ Otto's neighbor Dave @11:08 I listen to WKCR a lot. Lots of old jazz. Classical. More rock/pop lately from the younger adults. Otto: they still play Schaap re-runs.
	11:09am Gary: Nice mention of WKCR.
	11:09am Colin: Great show as always. Ty!!!
	11:10am Otto's neighbor Dave: ↳ TDK60 @11:09 Thanks!
	11:10am northguineahills: crap, i missed a lot due to work...
	11:11am Roberto: Go, Fani and Tish!
	11:11am eric from lake hiawatha: Thank you for the shout outs!
	11:11am Otto's neighbor Dave: Great shout outs. I second them all.
	11:11am Charles in Chicago: ↳ northguineahills @11:10 i'm glad you have a job now!
	11:13am tom tom the pipers son: the election officials first got terrorized for simply doing their jobs
	11:13am coelacanth∅: ha...not surprising that traitor joe's signed on.
	11:14am maurer: preach!
	11:15am Lucky: Capitalism is all about labor "lore". The myth of individual achievement!
	11:15am listener james from westwood: And the plutocrats and liber-Republitarians would like to see almost all those agencies go away.
	11:15am jakee.jc: Trouble thanks for bringing labor union news to WFMU! I am going on radio row Sunday March 3 with labor music and working class struggle songs :)
	11:16am northguineahills: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:11 thanks charles. First time back to the office again this week.
	11:17am unpopularfred: Hey, Supreme Court, who wants to go to space?
	11:18am Adi from Sheffield: I try and shop local and avoid larger concerns whenever possible and whenever I can afford it.
	11:18am listener james from westwood: ↳ unpopularfred @11:17 A rat done bit my sister Nell And Kavanagh's on the moon
	11:18am eric from lake hiawatha: Divest from 401k, investments. Don’t buy product or services.
	11:18am maurer: ↳ Otto's neighbor Dave @11:08 I listened to schapp's bird flight on the morning drive to work for years, he was going thru every single bird recording chronologically, definitely learned alot, the man was extremely obsessive... supposedly, when meeting him, he would ask your birthday and let you know which jazz musicians were born on your birthday... I think I saw him eating lunch at Toast on broadway once...
	11:18am Micheal: Thanks, Trouble. The 40 Hour workweek and collective bargaining exist because of Unions. Whenever I hear a suggestion by Bezos or Musk, I know it's not gonna be for workers.
	11:18am thedunkel: Try LIDL's in Bayonne?
	11:18am jakee.jc: Talk to the workers! Under capitalism we always have to deal with unethical consumption. Boycotts are great if they are organized with the workers at those stores. But just divesting on one’s own as an individual isn’t necessarily what the workers demand. So check in with employees and union members about their demands
	11:19am TDK60: ↳ jakee.jc @11:15 That'll be interesting, jakee.jc. I'll pencil that in.
	11:19am WoodsOfMaine: What I do is to try to shop local as much as possible. The only big box we have in our immediate area is Walmart and we never go there. Everything else is an hour away. As for things like Amazon, it's so damned tricky because while you can not buy from them, it's nearly impossible to avoid using them indirectly. So many merchants use their web services.
	11:19am Firepitmama: We agree Trouble! We won’t be shopping at TJ. We are a proud, and grateful, Union home (IBEW). Speak with your dollars.
	11:19am morphe': FL/The South - my sister was a specialized ER Trauma nurse in Fl in the 80s ["Right to Work" state] and was paid about $20.00/hr on an annual contract and had to pay private insurance for health care ... She and the family moved to Washington State...
	11:20am alex in San Francisco: The grocery world is already super conglomerated. Trader Joe’s has been owned for a while by Aldi, the German discount food brand.
	11:20am Roberto: ↳ Song: "on my way" by "june mcdoom" Any relation to Judge McDoom?
	11:20am paddy in matawan: ↳ Otto's neighbor Dave @11:08 He could tell you what the stain on Parker's collar was from during that session and what he was drinking and eating. Unreal. Also want to go and listen to it all.
	11:20am Andrea: I try to shop ethically/local, but it so hard! We just moved neighborhoods, and no longer have small, local pet supply stores. I sometimes order from Amazon now, I hate it. Is Chewy better? Oy.
	11:20am Otto's neighbor Dave: I kind of do assume all corporations are evil, but like choosing who to vote for in a *presidential* election, where I'm voting in the same contest with people from Park Slope AND Staten Island, Wyoming AND California, yes, I just do what I can, knowing it's not a magic bullet. What makes this count instead of not matter at all is that I KEEP doing it, day after day, election after election, etc. Staying in it. That's what counts.
	11:21am northguineahills: i just recently have financial agency again. luckily, there are a lot of independent grocers in my barrio.
	11:21am PaulRobeson1924: It’s a question of education and has always been 1/3 of America will attended university. 2/3 will never step inside…
	11:21am coelacanth∅: boycot. i haven't used scamazon in >10 years. shopping for a toaster-over right now and i don't even consider amazon or walmart. but ultimately they all suck and i will give money to one of them.
	11:21am TDK60: ↳ Song: "on my way" by "june mcdoom" Upon first listen, June McD. sounds similar to another neo-folky, Marissa Nadler.
	11:21am Doug C: I don't purchase at some places because of how they treat their employees but I often accept some negatives because I cut out resources I need to function, often for business.
	11:21am Trouble: LIDl owns trader joes
	11:22am ?: Trouble, you are terrific! Thank you for your programming and commentary.
	11:22am kuba: ↳ Trouble @11:21 wasn't it ALDI?
	11:22am Trouble: i think...
	11:22am love2laf: Here in Canada, grocery stores are recording record profits every quarter, and increasing dividends. The worst of these is the Galen owned Loblaws (and other names). We still shop there. We buy the 'loss leaders' that are on sale, and shop elsewhere for everything else. We've done this for over a year. They're still raising prices, dividends, and profits.
	11:23am Acid Cazh: The NLRB thing is the most terrifying news I've read since Roe was overturned. We are truly living in the worst timeline, and the Supreme Court is the reason — and the combination of McConnell blocking Merrick Garland's appointment to the Supreme Court under Obama, and then everything about the Trump Administration, is the reason for this toxic and terrible Supreme Court.
	11:23am WoodsOfMaine: They're all subsidiaries of The RamJac Corporation.
	11:23am TDK60: The USA has one of the more violent labor histories among "advanced" countries.
	11:24am kuba: two low-level things i try to do: - tip the underpaid delivery people (or overtip, if you're in the US), in cash - talk to people: tell them amazon sucks, again and again. don't let them and yourself shrug it off
	11:24am Ochre Ogre: Used to do Whole Foods for certain items, now boycott after Amazon takeover. I buy local whenever possible and try to stay informed in which corp. to Boycott.
	11:24am Otto's neighbor Dave: ↳ paddy in matawan @11:20 I know! He knew EVERYTHING. Micro, like you describe, and macro, like he could draw a straight line historically connecting spirituals on one end to like, Charles Mingus on the other--and make it make sense.
	11:25am coelacanth∅: ... i've been talking about the shit that is traitor joe's for years...not knowing they're anti-union but because of their business model of selling fairly inexpensive, pretend-quality products, yet only setting up shop in places where they are assured there wont be many "poor" people shopping there.
	11:25am Trouble: aldi, lidl tj's conncetion: www.thedailymeal.com...
	11:27am Ochre Ogre: Not much of a consumer, get most of my wardrobe from thrift shops.
	11:27am maurer: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:23 I wish Obama told mcconnel to f**k off and moved forward with seating garland on the court... the kleptocracy republicans are doing all that they can to destroy our government for their corporate overlords... again on the politics tip here, I highly recommend reading Heather Cox Richardson on substack (trouble calls her doc richardson). She thoroughly explains the history of the corporate backlash against the new deal that continues to this day...
	11:27am Toothgrinder Tom: @TDK60 and labor history is a much under appreciated topic!
	11:27am WoodsOfMaine: We also get a decent bit of food from our local organic food store (lots of stuff from local farmers) and also get produce once a week via FarmDrop, a sort of online farmer's market where we order and then pick up at the farm. I know this isn't an option for a lot of people.
	11:28am Trouble: @coelcanth: the tj's things i buy: nuts, dried fruit, goat yogurt, gf pasta, etc is all lower in cost than my local supermarket and higher in quality. i don't buy any of the frozen meals except a gf pizza crust...when you are gf then the $$$ gets stupid crazy
	11:28am Philip: ↳ maurer @11:27 Right on.
	11:28am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ maurer @11:27 I get done with writing every morning and then move on to read that. In my mind, I call it the "Asshole Gazette."
	11:28am morphe': Woody Guthrie drawing: "Punchin' the Clock" https://www.facebook.com/NewberryLibrary/photos/a.10155519274412790/10159174493532790/?type=3
	11:29am Ken From Hyde Park: I preferred it when people in the Kremlin were considered the bad guys.
	11:29am coelacanth∅: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:19 i always buy in the local hardware store. it usually costs a bit more than the low lowes that i pass by 4-6 times/week; but i only go into lowes occasionally to bring stuff to the automated check-out line, "innocently" ask if there's no human-run check-out, then leave all my stuff on the counter and go. (never intending to buy anything)
	11:29am maurer: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:28 haha!
	11:30am Trouble: I buy my chicken and eggs from a NJ organic farmer who comes up to my neighborhood every 2 weeks off season and sells at the farmers market in season. i buy tons at the farmers market but living in the northeast that season is short. we have a fab mushroom grower at the market in JC heights! Scale, downtown JC, is an amazing fish shop: lots of local catch there.
	11:30am Chief Guy: We live in the country so less need to deal with supermarkets. Farm our own plot and lots of bow hunting.
	11:31am disco_nap_: Good morning, Troublemakers! I’ve been listening while commuting to work and am excited to be able to join the chat. I am wondering if anyone can recommend an affordable place in NYC to buy groceries besides Trader Joe’s? I don’t feel good about shopping at a place that is known for union busting but every time I go somewhere else it feels like highway robbery. I am an artist/arts administrator about to be laid off for context on what “affordable” is. I live in Ridgewood, Queens and don’t have a car, so something thereabouts or off the M or L lines, please!
	11:31am Trouble: I agree @ ken from hyde park. but the corporate greed thing has always been there, we just didn't see it so clearly perhaps?
	11:31am TDK60: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @11:27 Morning T. Tom. Yes, under-emphasized in education. And even more, that history and other history, like Black history, is under attack. They don't want our children to know.
	11:32am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:29 Me too! We haven't gone to homedesperate in years. We are also lucky enough to have a couple of local options, including a small Maine chain named Hammond Lumber.
	11:33am Renno: Hi everybody, just passing thru, newly unemployed from the postal service, trying to recover mental health from 5 years of hell there lol If anyone is interested in trying to follow the judicial developments against HumptyTrumpty made by a truly refulgent genius (always read the comments most of the commenters are lawyers and even a few judges and they're not always smooth but are always well moderated to weed out the chaff!), visit emptywheel.net. The main contributor is an amazing lady with unbelievable depth of knowledge about process and reads all the court stuff in the various cases proceeding as well as the other 'dick-sniffing' garbage relating to HB. Marcy Wheeler is my personal hero. This is NOT an advert it's a public service Trouble you are another hero!! Hopefully my daughter finally checked you out! Also, there's a great documentary about some of the history of the labor movement made some years ago called The Wobblies over on archive.org and a great podcast called Working Class History (patreon) with like 95 episodes, brilliant
	11:34am coelacanth∅: ↳ Trouble @11:28 it does get crazy. there's a local pizza place with many gluten-free items, but a gluten-free pizza (ie) is 17-18 bucks for personal sized pie! (i've never bought one)
	11:34am WoodsOfMaine: Dammit, I always get so bummed when this show gets near the end.
	11:34am morphe': ↳ disco_nap_ @11:31 And all ... if ye eat cheese Dipaloa's Cheese shop [Gand/Mott STs] is a family owned [over 100+ years] with good cheese [EU so theoretically non-gm], not cheap, but nor is a wee wedge from WholeFoods.
	11:35am Chief Guy: Disadvantage of city life is you have to get food from a store. If it’s union busting then that’s store is a bad choice but the unionized store is more expensive. But at least we can save money by evading paywalls for free New Yorker articles
	11:35am maurer: doc richardson explains how, after the wall fell, emboldened republicans turned their attention from the foreign villains to "domestic villians", villifying democrats, calling them socialists, and generally demonizing them, slandering them as welfare queens, feminazis, groomers, pedofiles, etc...
	11:37am maurer: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:29 (my comment above was intended to be a reply to ken)
	11:37am Trouble: here is the link where you can write a nasty note to TJ'S telling them that you won't shop there b/c of their union busting antics:www.traderjoes.com...
	11:38am alex in San Francisco: The corporate greed has been there but there are laws that used to be enforced regarding trust and monopoly that prevented the Wall Street take over of the food system. There’s some good reads out there about the Walmart takeover and the dollar store epidemic and the predatory tactics they use
	11:41am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ alex in San Francisco @11:38 The ReligionOfMaximizingShareholderValue(tm).
	11:42am coelacanth∅: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:32 excellent! ...our options have diminished, unfortunately. the real local hardware store disappeared ~15 years ago when the building was sucked up by stop & shop, which failed and was then bought by tops stupidmarket, where i now work my 2nd job. true value failed but we now have beck's - which is not local but it's "family owned" and hires local people. there're still local places a few towns away.
	11:43am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "todi ( part 1)" by "madhuvanti pal" wait, is it noon on friday already!??!
	11:44am Joey!: Hey Trouble!! LOVE your show always and it gets me up and down the NYS Thruway, thank goodness! A while back you spoke of visiting a little record shop in a very small town and how great it was...well, i have another one you can journey to..it's called EVERYTHING NICE and it's at 110 Canal Street in Ellenville, NY. All their info is on the web and we have come away with some amazing finds! I mean, they sell t-shirts with Nick Drake and Ronnie Lane on them!! i know you and your fam ily will love it!! Best, Joey.
	11:44am Ochre Ogre: ↳ maurer @11:35 Yep, Reagan (and some before him) is responsible for a lot of corp. $$ crap and then some.
	11:46am disco_nap_: ↳ Chief Guy @11:35 Exactly! I’m awful with plants but trying to get better (I’m blessed to have a backyard and a roommate who is into gardening.)
	11:47am Acid Cazh: ↳ maurer @11:27 Substack wants a credit card for me to subscribe to her blog... I don't read news if it doesn't come to my email address... so I won't be reading Heather Cox Richardson. Not until something changes in my work-life balance, for the better — but if the NLRB goes away, then I can kiss that dream goodbye.
	11:48am Joey!: ↳ Renno @11:33 A friend of mine left the PO as well, and told me HORROR stories of what they do to staff. Hope your doing better...
	11:48am coelacanth∅: the beginning of the end was enacted during shithead reagan; but really the bush regime was pulling reagan's puppet strings, and continued from there. the bush family has been at the heart of the demise of america for a long, long time.
	11:48am disco_nap_: ↳ Chief Guy @11:35 Also how do I evade the New Yorker paywall?!
	11:48am kuba: please be aware that substack is happy to host nazis
	11:50am Firepitmama: Thank you Trouble, for a thoughtful and thought provoking show once again! My sister and I have been listening together from Pompton Lake NJ (me) and Tucson AZ (her). Texting between about all the topics.
	11:50am prof.fuzz: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:47 i get an email from HCR every night.
	11:51am kuba: ↳ disco_nap_ @11:48 prepend archive DOT is to the article you want to read, works for most paywalls afaik
	11:51am Ochre Ogre: Just a heads up, one of the Home Depot founders is a trump $upporter. It's close, so I did go there for a $3. bag of screws, but went to confession.
	11:51am Chief Guy: Disco, it’s in the comments above. Don’t worry about the writers getting paid! They probably own shares in Trader Joe’s!
	11:51am love2laf: Thank you Trouble for the music, and the thinking about our Modern World, and for Nina. Thank you Troubled friends, I appreciate you all.
	11:52am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Trouble. Thanks for the NS set today.
	11:52am TDK60: Thanks for helping add to Black History Month with the great Nina segment. Merci, presenter Trouble.
	11:53am Toothgrinder Tom: @TDK60 👍🏻
	11:53am disco_nap_: ↳ kuba @11:51 Thank you!
	11:54am alex in San Francisco: https://ilsr.org/report-dollar-store-invasion/ Here’s the dollar store report, sheds a lot of light on the grocery world in general
	11:54am coelacanth∅: ↳ Ochre Ogre @11:51 the home depot that my sister shops in (very anti-trump but gets a box from amazon almost daily) had a giant pro-trump display immediately inside the front door during the elections.
	11:55am disco_nap_: Thanks Trouble, and all! I love that we are having these conversations and listening to amazing music while doing it
	11:55am morphe': Thanks Trouble and all !!!!!
	11:56am Trouble: thanks for sitting in today!
	11:56am tom tom the pipers son: thanks trouble...
	11:56am bradford: Thanks as always, Trouble.
	11:56am greg g: Enjoying the ambient sounds Trouble. Late Good Morning Everyone
	11:56am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Ochre Ogre @11:51 Exactly why I stopped going there.
	11:56am Listener Bryan (the Professor): thanks, trouble! have a great week.
	11:57am northguineahills: thanks trouble!
	11:57am Ben in Newark: thanks Trouble!
	11:57am bixa: thanks trouble!
	11:57am Ochre Ogre: Thanks Trouble, great Nina set!
	11:57am northguineahills: ↳ alex in San Francisco @11:54 jon oliver did a segment on that....
	11:58am Ochre Ogre: Stay WOKE folks! Cheers
	11:59am coelacanth∅: Thank you Trouble
	11:59am Ochre Ogre: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:56 Right on!
	12:00pm jakee.jc: Thank you for the plug Trouble!! Excited for Radio Row on 3/3 :)

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.

	9:11am Trouble: i'm more of an 'A" person...
	9:14am Ben in Newark: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:08 True! I know it wouldn't sound like this, but that reminds me of the Mitch Hedberg joke "I remixed the remix... it was back to normal"
	9:15am Robm: ↳ Trouble @9:11 a as in apple trouble:)
	9:16am love2laf: ↳ Trouble @9:11 The things that must be done for Marathon, we appreciate it! G'morning Trouble, and all my troubled friends here in the Modern World. Riding the weather roller coaster, above freezing today, plunging to minus 20 tomorrow night. February is always fractious.

	9:19am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:16 true.... but i'm making a joke...;)
	9:20am Trouble: @ tom tom: we have a very large sense of what is new: it is living in our new bin right now, and we dont always get the new works immediately, so to us it is new.
	9:20am tom tom the pipers son: gotcha...;)
	9:21am Robm: ↳ love2laf @9:16 howdy again L2L

	9:30am melinda: Morning friends
	9:30am love2laf: ↳ Delicate Chester @9:28 Thank you, I resisted so hard, and I'm grateful you jumped in with it! @Robm I feel like getting to Thursday and making it to Trouble's show does very good things for my peace of mind.
	9:30am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "cygnus" by "isabel del bosco" nice pairing w/ last piece
	9:30am TDK60: Good morning, DJ T.
	9:31am Robm: ↳ love2laf @9:30 know what you mean love, when i hear mona on friday i am in heaven
	9:32am love2laf: @Trouble I thought you might enjoy this joke, it's living in my head and making me laugh daily. "If you keep correcting my grammer, I will think fewer of you!"
	9:36am Philip: mornin' all troublista's. love that photo of Nina Simone and James Baldwin
	9:36am tom tom the pipers son: englechen=little angel
	9:38am Chris Hiatt: Loved the first set, DJ Trouble. Now I'm out the door. for real. Thanks!
	9:41am Edgar from Maine: ↳ love2laf @9:32 Gonna steal this!
	9:42am unpopularfred: Trouble is largely responsible for correcting my youthful disdain for Nina Simone. I don't know what the hell I was thinking, some loose wire in my brain or something. (I mean I normally have impeccable taste) Ever grateful.
	9:44am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Song: "recordare/jazz reflects the improvised life thrus... I missed this Angel Bat Dawid record when it came out last year - IA has been putting out so much great stuff - so it's new to me! Thanks so much Trouble!!
	9:45am Charles in Chicago: "A 12-movement suite composed, arranged, and inspired in part by dialogue from Edward O. Bland’s 1959 film The Cry of Jazz"
	9:45am Trouble: i love that our tastes change over time@ unpopular fred: it means there is always a chance to listen anew to music from the past. i used to not enjoy karen dalton...and i now think that she is the bee's knees
	9:46am TDK60: Imagine /some/ of the conversation James & Nina might have had in the early 60s if they were in the USA: No, we can't go into that restaurant. Nope, that hotel won't have us. Etc. Absurd. But fact.
	9:47am love2laf: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:41 Take that joke and run with it, to me it's such a gem, glad you like it too.
	9:49am Trouble: good one @ love2laf!
	9:49am Charles in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:36 it would be spelled "engelchen"
	9:50am oshiwoshi: ↳ Trouble @9:45 +1 for trouble's label-free music that regular sneaks past my snobby filter and surprises with artists whose image or whatnot put me off back in the day
	9:51am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:49 ah right... was spelling w/o looking
	9:54am Charles in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:51 Me too! But that's just how German spelling works, it's much more regular than English ... (sorry I'm not trying to be pedantic, I just studied a lot of German and lived in Germany for a while)
	9:55am Charles in Chicago: And WFMU picked up a bunch of new listeners in Germany recently thanks to that excellent article in the SDZ
	10:00am Trouble: an interesting article about nina: www.newyorker.com...
	10:02am Webhamster Henry: Hi Modern world dwellers1
	10:02am Charles in Chicago: (if you can't access the new yorker article try "private browsing" mode)
	10:03am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:02 uBlock Origin plugged into Firefox will zap those paywalls away post haste.
	10:03am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:02 if you have 'developer mode' you can inspect element and turn the paywall off
	10:04am Ken From Hyde Park: Nina's birthday noted in social media — wandering.shop...
	10:05am Charles in Chicago: the new yorker allows one free article per month. if you've already used up that quota, private browsing "forgets" that fact
	10:06am Sera from Rockaway: This story is making me tear up. Love you Nina
	10:06am Charles in Chicago: I have ublock origin but that doesn't seem to help with the New Yorker, unless I'm not using it right. But I think switching over to "private" is pretty easy
	10:06am Webhamster Henry: This excellent (kind of heartbreaking) NS doc is on Netflix en.wikipedia.org...
	10:07am RevErie: I tuned in at the right time to hear that NS story!
	10:08am Edgar from Maine: As I look at that picture, I imagine them watching the debate with Buckley and Nina saying "My heavens, David, you owned that fool like the sad little imp he is."
	10:09am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:06 The little lightning bolt icon zaps elements you may not want.
	10:09am Trouble: effort to preserve nina's birthplace www.wallpaper.com...
	10:10am Charles in Chicago: Sure, but what element to zap? Have you actually done this for the New Yorker?
	10:10am Philip: So great! Love, love, love Nina
	10:12am Ben in Newark: Another way to circumvent most paywalls is by entering the URL into the Wayback Machine, or another internet archiving website
	10:12am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:10 Just did. First I clicked on the pop-up message. Then there was a gray overlay and I clicked on that. Zap Zap 'free' story.
	10:13am blee: whoooooeeeee, Nina!
	10:14am Jason from Houston: Heyyyyyy there.
	10:14am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Edgar from Maine @10:12 oh interesting. it took me 3 zaps but that method works too. thanks.
	10:16am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone.
	10:17am bixa: beautiful eagle watching music today
	10:18am Phillippe: Nice tribute
	10:23am rob: REEEMIIIX
	10:23am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "spring is here" by "nina simone" I'll take it even with the CD skips!
	10:25am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:54 sorry for the de-lay, i gathered that you knew german from previous posts. had some friends in berlin who i visited several times and got by on some very basic german, for example, was getting a bratwurst at a cart and didn't know word for mustard but knew the word for yellow and said to the vendor, "gelbe", and made a brushing motion over the wurst, he got it, and was happy to oblige and said "senf"...iirc
	10:26am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:23 so nice, she sang it twice...
	10:28am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you.
	10:29am love2laf: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:25 My parents despaired of me and my inability to master German. For instance, I was lifeguarding and these two young men were bouncing more than one bounce on the diving board. Blew my whistle, waved them over and told them once bounce only. They were German and didn't understand. I used my German and said "Du must nicht boinga boinga gehen." I see your mustard / yellow, and raise you boinga boinga. (also can't spell in German, forgive both please)
	10:31am Micheal: Thank you for playing Nina Simone, Trouble. Her birthday broadcast yesterday on WKCR was a nice celebration. She was a true force.
	10:33am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ love2laf @10:29 ha! made me laugh, i can see how "boinga boinga"might have gotten you into deep water also
	10:33am Charles in Chicago: ↳ love2laf @10:29 Yeah, when learning a language it's really important to not be shy, make guesses, not be afraid to make mistakes, etc. While I was living in Hamburg I had some experiences like this - grasping for words - but the educational opportunities were often undermined by the fact that folks over there speak such good English
	10:34am Joey C: Chills
	10:35am Jason from Houston: [cranks it]
	10:35am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:33 true, and in the parts of germany i was in, they didn't begrudge you speaking english
	10:35am 2/3 of the Perrin Family: You are the best kind of Good Trouble. Thank you for this incredible show.
	10:35am Acid Cazh: Trouble can you please please play Nina's live recording of "Let it be Me"? This one: www.youtube.com...
	10:36am Acid Cazh: It's my all-time fave
	10:38am Reno D: I remember when my niece was little and she was acquiring new tastes in music. She asked me for my ‘desert island’ singer/band choice, smugly expecting me to say Bowie or Roxy or Sparks, I suppose. She was perplexed when I immediately responded “Nina Simone”, of whom she had never heard. I explained that one can never, never grow tired of Nina, because something new happens with every listening.
	10:39am love2laf: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:33 Germans I have known all have an appreciation for the difficulty in learning a language, it does make it easy to take chances, use 'guess' words and hand motions. @tom tom believe me, 16 year old me blushed furiously afterwards, and I have never been the blushing type.
	10:39am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:35 in berlin an elderly man came up to me, when he found out i was american and said with a sense of wonder on his face, "are you from tennesee" like that was the most magical thing imaginable
	10:43am still b/p: ↳ Song: "just in time" by "nina simone" Nice to hear this with a whoooole different flavor from the ingenue-y-est and man-crooniest renditions, which are often fine but from another universe.
	10:44am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Song: "rich girl" by "nina simone" This set is great, Trouble! I haven't heard a lot of these before
	10:44am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Oh wow I had no idea she covered H&O.
	10:44am mariano: ↳ Song: "rich girl" by "nina simone" Whoa, she covered Hall & Oates?!
	10:44am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "rich girl" by "nina simone" nina's version is so literal and pointed...excellent
	10:44am bixa: folks, we got two eagles: www.youtube.com...
	10:45am mariano: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:44 Jinx!
	10:45am Micheal: ↳ Song: "rich girl" by "nina simone" Nina Simone owned every cover she ever did!
	10:45am Noir Lover: Repeating my comment made during Fiveash's Nina tribute... A voice that stops time
	10:45am Roberto: ↳ bixa @10:44 SWEET!
	10:46am Hi from Holland: Aloha! Props for playing Nina!
	10:47am bixa: ↳ Roberto @10:45 jackie just flew away!
	10:47am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Now I’m craving “Who Am I?” from Peter Pan. One of my fav Nina deep cuts.
	10:47am Roberto: ↳ bixa @10:47 Come back soon, Jackie!
	10:47am PKNY: ↳ Song: "rich girl" by "nina simone" Interetsting info from the "Baltimore" album Wikipedia page: Simone disagreed with Taylor's production choices—particularly his interest in a reggae sound, which first caused Simone to ask "What is this corny stuff?" Simone's dissatisfaction delayed production, but she would eventually record her vocals for the album in a single hour-long sitting.Simone would later recall of the historic barn where Baltimore was recorded "a basement in Belgium where I was forced to sing songs in order to get out of there."
	10:48am andrew cb: ↳ bixa @10:44 thanks for that. I used to follow the DC eagle nest cam religiously.
	10:50am Sera from Rockaway: ↳ Song: "poppies" by "nina simone" Wow never heard this one! I love it
	10:50am Listener Jonny in MA............. d-_-b: I have been singing "Field of Puppies".
	10:50am drr: "boinga boinga" is Swedish, actually.
	10:51am Sera from Rockaway: Trouble, do you recommend any books on Nina? I have seen that one doc but want to know more
	10:52am Trouble: sorry @ sera: i haven't read anything on nina, but i know there are a few books out there...
	10:52am Picante Mint: I'm not as familiar with Nina Simone's work as I should be, thanks for the crash course. I am enjoying it.
	10:52am Dances with Moomins: Wow what a set !
	10:53am Charles in Chicago: not recommending any particular one but just noting that there is a nice selection of books at www.ninasimone.com...
	10:53am Andrea: YES!!!
	10:53am Listener Bryan (the Professor): A friend of mine has a new Nina book coming out this fall: www.dukeupress.edu...
	10:53am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ bixa @10:44 🪺🦅💨
	10:53am Andrea: ... this IS funkier than a mosquito's tweeter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	10:53am Charles in Chicago: "What Happened, Miss Simone?" got good revies but I have not read it (yet)
	10:54am Funkaaayyy: Funkaaayyy
	10:54am unpopularfred: ↳ Song: "funkier thatn a mosquito's tweeter" by "nina simone" shoutout to the drummer on this!!
	10:54am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:53 (it was a film too)
	10:55am Listener Bryan (the Professor): One of the more memorable things I've read on Nina: www.thebeliever.net...
	10:56am Andrea: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:55 oooo thanks...
	10:56am Funkaaayyy: I just looked up boll weevils and they are scary looking
	10:56am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:54 that's what's on netflix
	10:57am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Song: "funkier thatn a mosquito's tweeter" by "nina simone" random fact, that song was written by Tina Turner's sister Aillene Bullock
	10:58am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:53 I imagine the autobiography would be a good place to start...
	10:58am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:56 Movie def worth watching but it's very sad.
	10:59am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:58 (I mean, while we wait for Byran's friend's book to get published!)
	10:59am eric from lake hiawatha: Thank you for these Nina gems
	11:00am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:59 I'm really curious to see what he does in that book! I haven't talked to him about it at all.
	11:00am PaulRobeson1924: cdn.ymaws.com... Link is to ReAD James Baldwin’s Unnameable Objects, Unspeakable Crimes What is History? Where does history live? Happy Birthday Belated Birthday in the great beyond, Nina
	11:00am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:58 yes saw along time ago..iirc there were afew funky mosquitoes around her
	11:05am coelacanth∅: Thank you for the Nina tribute. rest in peace. something she didn't experience much of in life.
	11:05am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you, Trouble and Everyone. I must go to work now.
	11:06am Charles in Chicago: Ok, I can go out and take care of my errands now. Was glued to the radio here for the Nina tribute.
	11:08am Otto's neighbor Dave: Man, it was only just before Phil Schaap died that I came to understand what an education it would be to start listening to his radio show, and I was looking forward to learning a ton from him...
	11:09am TDK60: ↳ Otto's neighbor Dave @11:08 I listen to WKCR a lot. Lots of old jazz. Classical. More rock/pop lately from the younger adults. Otto: they still play Schaap re-runs.
	11:09am Gary: Nice mention of WKCR.
	11:09am Colin: Great show as always. Ty!!!
	11:10am Otto's neighbor Dave: ↳ TDK60 @11:09 Thanks!
	11:10am northguineahills: crap, i missed a lot due to work...
	11:11am Roberto: Go, Fani and Tish!
	11:11am eric from lake hiawatha: Thank you for the shout outs!
	11:11am Otto's neighbor Dave: Great shout outs. I second them all.
	11:11am Charles in Chicago: ↳ northguineahills @11:10 i'm glad you have a job now!
	11:13am tom tom the pipers son: the election officials first got terrorized for simply doing their jobs
	11:13am coelacanth∅: ha...not surprising that traitor joe's signed on.
	11:14am maurer: preach!
	11:15am Lucky: Capitalism is all about labor "lore". The myth of individual achievement!
	11:15am listener james from westwood: And the plutocrats and liber-Republitarians would like to see almost all those agencies go away.
	11:15am jakee.jc: Trouble thanks for bringing labor union news to WFMU! I am going on radio row Sunday March 3 with labor music and working class struggle songs :)
	11:16am northguineahills: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:11 thanks charles. First time back to the office again this week.
	11:17am unpopularfred: Hey, Supreme Court, who wants to go to space?
	11:18am Adi from Sheffield: I try and shop local and avoid larger concerns whenever possible and whenever I can afford it.
	11:18am listener james from westwood: ↳ unpopularfred @11:17 A rat done bit my sister Nell And Kavanagh's on the moon
	11:18am eric from lake hiawatha: Divest from 401k, investments. Don’t buy product or services.
	11:18am maurer: ↳ Otto's neighbor Dave @11:08 I listened to schapp's bird flight on the morning drive to work for years, he was going thru every single bird recording chronologically, definitely learned alot, the man was extremely obsessive... supposedly, when meeting him, he would ask your birthday and let you know which jazz musicians were born on your birthday... I think I saw him eating lunch at Toast on broadway once...
	11:18am Micheal: Thanks, Trouble. The 40 Hour workweek and collective bargaining exist because of Unions. Whenever I hear a suggestion by Bezos or Musk, I know it's not gonna be for workers.
	11:18am thedunkel: Try LIDL's in Bayonne?
	11:18am jakee.jc: Talk to the workers! Under capitalism we always have to deal with unethical consumption. Boycotts are great if they are organized with the workers at those stores. But just divesting on one’s own as an individual isn’t necessarily what the workers demand. So check in with employees and union members about their demands
	11:19am TDK60: ↳ jakee.jc @11:15 That'll be interesting, jakee.jc. I'll pencil that in.
	11:19am WoodsOfMaine: What I do is to try to shop local as much as possible. The only big box we have in our immediate area is Walmart and we never go there. Everything else is an hour away. As for things like Amazon, it's so damned tricky because while you can not buy from them, it's nearly impossible to avoid using them indirectly. So many merchants use their web services.
	11:19am Firepitmama: We agree Trouble! We won’t be shopping at TJ. We are a proud, and grateful, Union home (IBEW). Speak with your dollars.
	11:19am morphe': FL/The South - my sister was a specialized ER Trauma nurse in Fl in the 80s ["Right to Work" state] and was paid about $20.00/hr on an annual contract and had to pay private insurance for health care ... She and the family moved to Washington State...
	11:20am alex in San Francisco: The grocery world is already super conglomerated. Trader Joe’s has been owned for a while by Aldi, the German discount food brand.
	11:20am Roberto: ↳ Song: "on my way" by "june mcdoom" Any relation to Judge McDoom?
	11:20am paddy in matawan: ↳ Otto's neighbor Dave @11:08 He could tell you what the stain on Parker's collar was from during that session and what he was drinking and eating. Unreal. Also want to go and listen to it all.
	11:20am Andrea: I try to shop ethically/local, but it so hard! We just moved neighborhoods, and no longer have small, local pet supply stores. I sometimes order from Amazon now, I hate it. Is Chewy better? Oy.
	11:20am Otto's neighbor Dave: I kind of do assume all corporations are evil, but like choosing who to vote for in a *presidential* election, where I'm voting in the same contest with people from Park Slope AND Staten Island, Wyoming AND California, yes, I just do what I can, knowing it's not a magic bullet. What makes this count instead of not matter at all is that I KEEP doing it, day after day, election after election, etc. Staying in it. That's what counts.
	11:21am northguineahills: i just recently have financial agency again. luckily, there are a lot of independent grocers in my barrio.
	11:21am PaulRobeson1924: It’s a question of education and has always been 1/3 of America will attended university. 2/3 will never step inside…
	11:21am coelacanth∅: boycot. i haven't used scamazon in >10 years. shopping for a toaster-over right now and i don't even consider amazon or walmart. but ultimately they all suck and i will give money to one of them.
	11:21am TDK60: ↳ Song: "on my way" by "june mcdoom" Upon first listen, June McD. sounds similar to another neo-folky, Marissa Nadler.
	11:21am Doug C: I don't purchase at some places because of how they treat their employees but I often accept some negatives because I cut out resources I need to function, often for business.
	11:21am Trouble: LIDl owns trader joes
	11:22am ?: Trouble, you are terrific! Thank you for your programming and commentary.
	11:22am kuba: ↳ Trouble @11:21 wasn't it ALDI?
	11:22am Trouble: i think...
	11:22am love2laf: Here in Canada, grocery stores are recording record profits every quarter, and increasing dividends. The worst of these is the Galen owned Loblaws (and other names). We still shop there. We buy the 'loss leaders' that are on sale, and shop elsewhere for everything else. We've done this for over a year. They're still raising prices, dividends, and profits.
	11:23am Acid Cazh: The NLRB thing is the most terrifying news I've read since Roe was overturned. We are truly living in the worst timeline, and the Supreme Court is the reason — and the combination of McConnell blocking Merrick Garland's appointment to the Supreme Court under Obama, and then everything about the Trump Administration, is the reason for this toxic and terrible Supreme Court.
	11:23am WoodsOfMaine: They're all subsidiaries of The RamJac Corporation.
	11:23am TDK60: The USA has one of the more violent labor histories among "advanced" countries.
	11:24am kuba: two low-level things i try to do: - tip the underpaid delivery people (or overtip, if you're in the US), in cash - talk to people: tell them amazon sucks, again and again. don't let them and yourself shrug it off
	11:24am Ochre Ogre: Used to do Whole Foods for certain items, now boycott after Amazon takeover. I buy local whenever possible and try to stay informed in which corp. to Boycott.
	11:24am Otto's neighbor Dave: ↳ paddy in matawan @11:20 I know! He knew EVERYTHING. Micro, like you describe, and macro, like he could draw a straight line historically connecting spirituals on one end to like, Charles Mingus on the other--and make it make sense.
	11:25am coelacanth∅: ... i've been talking about the shit that is traitor joe's for years...not knowing they're anti-union but because of their business model of selling fairly inexpensive, pretend-quality products, yet only setting up shop in places where they are assured there wont be many "poor" people shopping there.
	11:25am Trouble: aldi, lidl tj's conncetion: www.thedailymeal.com...
	11:27am Ochre Ogre: Not much of a consumer, get most of my wardrobe from thrift shops.
	11:27am maurer: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:23 I wish Obama told mcconnel to f**k off and moved forward with seating garland on the court... the kleptocracy republicans are doing all that they can to destroy our government for their corporate overlords... again on the politics tip here, I highly recommend reading Heather Cox Richardson on substack (trouble calls her doc richardson). She thoroughly explains the history of the corporate backlash against the new deal that continues to this day...
	11:27am Toothgrinder Tom: @TDK60 and labor history is a much under appreciated topic!
	11:27am WoodsOfMaine: We also get a decent bit of food from our local organic food store (lots of stuff from local farmers) and also get produce once a week via FarmDrop, a sort of online farmer's market where we order and then pick up at the farm. I know this isn't an option for a lot of people.
	11:28am Trouble: @coelcanth: the tj's things i buy: nuts, dried fruit, goat yogurt, gf pasta, etc is all lower in cost than my local supermarket and higher in quality. i don't buy any of the frozen meals except a gf pizza crust...when you are gf then the $$$ gets stupid crazy
	11:28am Philip: ↳ maurer @11:27 Right on.
	11:28am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ maurer @11:27 I get done with writing every morning and then move on to read that. In my mind, I call it the "Asshole Gazette."
	11:28am morphe': Woody Guthrie drawing: "Punchin' the Clock" https://www.facebook.com/NewberryLibrary/photos/a.10155519274412790/10159174493532790/?type=3
	11:29am Ken From Hyde Park: I preferred it when people in the Kremlin were considered the bad guys.
	11:29am coelacanth∅: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:19 i always buy in the local hardware store. it usually costs a bit more than the low lowes that i pass by 4-6 times/week; but i only go into lowes occasionally to bring stuff to the automated check-out line, "innocently" ask if there's no human-run check-out, then leave all my stuff on the counter and go. (never intending to buy anything)
	11:29am maurer: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:28 haha!
	11:30am Trouble: I buy my chicken and eggs from a NJ organic farmer who comes up to my neighborhood every 2 weeks off season and sells at the farmers market in season. i buy tons at the farmers market but living in the northeast that season is short. we have a fab mushroom grower at the market in JC heights! Scale, downtown JC, is an amazing fish shop: lots of local catch there.
	11:30am Chief Guy: We live in the country so less need to deal with supermarkets. Farm our own plot and lots of bow hunting.
	11:31am disco_nap_: Good morning, Troublemakers! I’ve been listening while commuting to work and am excited to be able to join the chat. I am wondering if anyone can recommend an affordable place in NYC to buy groceries besides Trader Joe’s? I don’t feel good about shopping at a place that is known for union busting but every time I go somewhere else it feels like highway robbery. I am an artist/arts administrator about to be laid off for context on what “affordable” is. I live in Ridgewood, Queens and don’t have a car, so something thereabouts or off the M or L lines, please!
	11:31am Trouble: I agree @ ken from hyde park. but the corporate greed thing has always been there, we just didn't see it so clearly perhaps?
	11:31am TDK60: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @11:27 Morning T. Tom. Yes, under-emphasized in education. And even more, that history and other history, like Black history, is under attack. They don't want our children to know.
	11:32am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:29 Me too! We haven't gone to homedesperate in years. We are also lucky enough to have a couple of local options, including a small Maine chain named Hammond Lumber.
	11:33am Renno: Hi everybody, just passing thru, newly unemployed from the postal service, trying to recover mental health from 5 years of hell there lol If anyone is interested in trying to follow the judicial developments against HumptyTrumpty made by a truly refulgent genius (always read the comments most of the commenters are lawyers and even a few judges and they're not always smooth but are always well moderated to weed out the chaff!), visit emptywheel.net. The main contributor is an amazing lady with unbelievable depth of knowledge about process and reads all the court stuff in the various cases proceeding as well as the other 'dick-sniffing' garbage relating to HB. Marcy Wheeler is my personal hero. This is NOT an advert it's a public service Trouble you are another hero!! Hopefully my daughter finally checked you out! Also, there's a great documentary about some of the history of the labor movement made some years ago called The Wobblies over on archive.org and a great podcast called Working Class History (patreon) with like 95 episodes, brilliant
	11:34am coelacanth∅: ↳ Trouble @11:28 it does get crazy. there's a local pizza place with many gluten-free items, but a gluten-free pizza (ie) is 17-18 bucks for personal sized pie! (i've never bought one)
	11:34am WoodsOfMaine: Dammit, I always get so bummed when this show gets near the end.
	11:34am morphe': ↳ disco_nap_ @11:31 And all ... if ye eat cheese Dipaloa's Cheese shop [Gand/Mott STs] is a family owned [over 100+ years] with good cheese [EU so theoretically non-gm], not cheap, but nor is a wee wedge from WholeFoods.
	11:35am Chief Guy: Disadvantage of city life is you have to get food from a store. If it’s union busting then that’s store is a bad choice but the unionized store is more expensive. But at least we can save money by evading paywalls for free New Yorker articles
	11:35am maurer: doc richardson explains how, after the wall fell, emboldened republicans turned their attention from the foreign villains to "domestic villians", villifying democrats, calling them socialists, and generally demonizing them, slandering them as welfare queens, feminazis, groomers, pedofiles, etc...
	11:37am maurer: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:29 (my comment above was intended to be a reply to ken)
	11:37am Trouble: here is the link where you can write a nasty note to TJ'S telling them that you won't shop there b/c of their union busting antics:www.traderjoes.com...
	11:38am alex in San Francisco: The corporate greed has been there but there are laws that used to be enforced regarding trust and monopoly that prevented the Wall Street take over of the food system. There’s some good reads out there about the Walmart takeover and the dollar store epidemic and the predatory tactics they use
	11:41am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ alex in San Francisco @11:38 The ReligionOfMaximizingShareholderValue(tm).
	11:42am coelacanth∅: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:32 excellent! ...our options have diminished, unfortunately. the real local hardware store disappeared ~15 years ago when the building was sucked up by stop & shop, which failed and was then bought by tops stupidmarket, where i now work my 2nd job. true value failed but we now have beck's - which is not local but it's "family owned" and hires local people. there're still local places a few towns away.
	11:43am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "todi ( part 1)" by "madhuvanti pal" wait, is it noon on friday already!??!
	11:44am Joey!: Hey Trouble!! LOVE your show always and it gets me up and down the NYS Thruway, thank goodness! A while back you spoke of visiting a little record shop in a very small town and how great it was...well, i have another one you can journey to..it's called EVERYTHING NICE and it's at 110 Canal Street in Ellenville, NY. All their info is on the web and we have come away with some amazing finds! I mean, they sell t-shirts with Nick Drake and Ronnie Lane on them!! i know you and your fam ily will love it!! Best, Joey.
	11:44am Ochre Ogre: ↳ maurer @11:35 Yep, Reagan (and some before him) is responsible for a lot of corp. $$ crap and then some.
	11:46am disco_nap_: ↳ Chief Guy @11:35 Exactly! I’m awful with plants but trying to get better (I’m blessed to have a backyard and a roommate who is into gardening.)
	11:47am Acid Cazh: ↳ maurer @11:27 Substack wants a credit card for me to subscribe to her blog... I don't read news if it doesn't come to my email address... so I won't be reading Heather Cox Richardson. Not until something changes in my work-life balance, for the better — but if the NLRB goes away, then I can kiss that dream goodbye.
	11:48am Joey!: ↳ Renno @11:33 A friend of mine left the PO as well, and told me HORROR stories of what they do to staff. Hope your doing better...
	11:48am coelacanth∅: the beginning of the end was enacted during shithead reagan; but really the bush regime was pulling reagan's puppet strings, and continued from there. the bush family has been at the heart of the demise of america for a long, long time.
	11:48am disco_nap_: ↳ Chief Guy @11:35 Also how do I evade the New Yorker paywall?!
	11:48am kuba: please be aware that substack is happy to host nazis
	11:50am Firepitmama: Thank you Trouble, for a thoughtful and thought provoking show once again! My sister and I have been listening together from Pompton Lake NJ (me) and Tucson AZ (her). Texting between about all the topics.
	11:50am prof.fuzz: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:47 i get an email from HCR every night.
	11:51am kuba: ↳ disco_nap_ @11:48 prepend archive DOT is to the article you want to read, works for most paywalls afaik
	11:51am Ochre Ogre: Just a heads up, one of the Home Depot founders is a trump $upporter. It's close, so I did go there for a $3. bag of screws, but went to confession.
	11:51am Chief Guy: Disco, it’s in the comments above. Don’t worry about the writers getting paid! They probably own shares in Trader Joe’s!
	11:51am love2laf: Thank you Trouble for the music, and the thinking about our Modern World, and for Nina. Thank you Troubled friends, I appreciate you all.
	11:52am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Trouble. Thanks for the NS set today.
	11:52am TDK60: Thanks for helping add to Black History Month with the great Nina segment. Merci, presenter Trouble.

	11:54am alex in San Francisco: https://ilsr.org/report-dollar-store-invasion/ Here’s the dollar store report, sheds a lot of light on the grocery world in general
	11:54am coelacanth∅: ↳ Ochre Ogre @11:51 the home depot that my sister shops in (very anti-trump but gets a box from amazon almost daily) had a giant pro-trump display immediately inside the front door during the elections.
	11:55am disco_nap_: Thanks Trouble, and all! I love that we are having these conversations and listening to amazing music while doing it
