	4:01pm Parq: Dug that cover of "Happy Day".
	4:03pm winston legthigh: handy! had a nice st. germain cocktail in vegas. was like a french 76 and 77 combined. vodka, st. germain, lemon juice, topped with sparkling wine. went lovely with brunch. not sure about the proportions.
	♥ 4:04pm Handy Haversack: ↳ winston legthigh @4:03 winston! Sounds fabulous. And hey, lookitthat! It's Friday!
	4:04pm winston legthigh: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:04 cheers!
	4:04pm Marie in Chicago: I just met 2 people who moved back here from Austin. One of the reasons was the stupid state management, ie, a messed up power grid that put a lot of people at risk during extreme cold, as well as increasing heat
	4:05pm Toothgrinder Tom: @Marie that’s cheering news for some reason.
	4:05pm ledzeppelinsucks: Sloppy seconds jobs from Silicon Valley that used to go to Mexico and the Philippines.
	♥ 4:06pm Phillippe: ↳ Sem @4:00 been busy with work myself -- wrapping up the career by the end of the year, so trying to get enough billable hours in. been getting lotsa great bird pics in my spare time though -- nice new lens
	4:06pm Jeff Moore: It was great to see Cole Escola's star on the rise, as evidenced by a Met Ball invite!
	4:06pm JohnnyR: ↳ Parq @4:01 Yeah, I wonder who did it.
	♥ 4:06pm Sem: ↳ Monica @3:56 Jeez, those guys don't follow Go Fug Yourself, or Celebitchy? Covered that Met thing deep, to my delight.
	4:06pm Monica: yes!
	♥ 4:07pm radioronan: Oh, Monica is on the air. Lucky us!
	♥ 4:08pm Handy Haversack: ↳ radioronan @4:07 Hey, neighbor. If you need plates or glasses, someone has set out a box on Green, almost to McG. I grabbed a couple of plates, but there were several more!
	♥ 4:08pm rx "rexy" scabin: Connie!
	♥ 4:09pm Sem: ↳ Phillippe @4:06 Birds! Two days ago a bunch of crows were mobbing a bald eagle. Instead of just shrugging them off, as usual, it wheeled and held a gull under water, did a 360 and when the thing came up for air, pushed it under again.
	♥ 4:10pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Sem @4:09 The cycle of violence perpetuates itself, alas. Hail, Sem!
	4:11pm winston legthigh: ↳ Song: "Highway Patrol" by "Junior Brown" yee haa!
	♥ 4:11pm Gregosaurus: ↳ Song: "Bossa Nova Hand Dance" by "Connie Francis" Kooky rhythms!
	♥ 4:11pm Sem: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:10 Howya doing, Handy? Missing each other lately on "our" shows.
	♥ 4:11pm Acid Cazh: ↳ Song: "Highway Patrol" by "Junior Brown" Junior! I saw Junior Brown play an outdoor show at a park in Manhattan once. Friend of mine played a different show with him. He reported that Junior Brown does not drink, but smokes a ton of weed (this was about 15 years ago?) I thought for a second and said, "Makes sense, he sure writes a lot of songs about food."
	4:12pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @4:05 I know. Maybe some things will start changing for the better down there/
	4:12pm JohnnyR: ↳ Song: "Highway Patrol" by "Junior Brown" ACAB... I wonder if anyone has done an anti-cop number using that chord progression.
	4:13pm Monica: Yo, Marie in Chicago, Toothgrinder Tom, ledzeppelinsucksJeff Moore, radioronan, and Gregosaurus!
	♥ 4:15pm Acid Cazh: Looks like I'm gonna put in my two weeks notice on Monday. What are some good songs to listen to when you're about to quit a job that makes you miserable?
	♥ 4:15pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Sem @4:11 Mostly within tolerances here. The domestication of the dog proceeds apace but occupies a lot of my time and still far too many paper towels.
	♥ 4:16pm Phillippe: ↳ Sem @4:09 Oh man, I wish I had seen that! We have osprey nesting across the cove, which means the eagles have cleared out for a bit. I haven't put any pics up yet but I'll send you a link when I do
	4:16pm JohnnyR: ↳ Acid Cazh @4:15 Take This Job And Shove It by Johnny Paycheck springs to mind
	♥ 4:18pm joe mulligan: ↳ Sem @4:09 was it kind of a "you're next crows, you want to sleep with the fishes too?" nature is violent and menacing indeed @Handy
	4:18pm headcleaner: Melting
	♥ 4:18pm Sem: ↳ Phillippe @4:16 That's be great! Also some osprey drama here. Last year the pair had triplets, and it looks like one of 'em has a Mama complex. Saw him this morning making overtures to the female the male had spent 10 days making a new nest for. Feathers flew!
	4:18pm bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): ↳ headcleaner @4:18 i too am melting
	♥ 4:18pm joe mulligan: ↳ ledzeppelinsucks @4:05 truth!
	4:19pm Andres: Good afternoon, Monica and all. Chappel Roan livestream from Coachella was great. Owen Pallet live fantastic the couple times I’ve seen him. I gotta get out to a show.
	♥ 4:19pm NotARealDoctor in Norfolk VA: ↳ Song: "Power of Love" by "Final Fantasy (Owen Pallet)" Oh I'm hootin! I'm hollerin! I'm doing cat whistles with the audience!
	♥ 4:20pm Sem: ↳ joe mulligan @4:18 I guess the eagle had taken enough shit. Yeah, both the crows and the gulls go ape shit especially now during nesting/breeding season when the big bird appears.
	4:21pm Monica: Alright, headcleaner, bixa, and andres!
	♥ 4:22pm paddy in matawan: Great music, Monica!
	4:22pm Monica: howdy, paddy in matawan!
	4:23pm love2laf: ↳ Acid Cazh @4:15 Lily Allen the FU song, it always makes me dance and sing.
	4:24pm T-Bird: lovely vibes
	4:24pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: Greetings, Monica and all! Thanks for keeping me company while I drive all over upstate NY.
	♥ 4:24pm Destroit: I forgot how much i missed you Monica
	4:25pm Monica: Welcome, T-Bird and Chris in Kensington Bklyn!
	4:26pm Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Acid Cazh @4:15 Take This Job And Shove It - Johnny Paycheck Strong Enough - Cher Oops, Johnny R beat me to it!
	♥ 4:27pm Booz: Classic Monica, playful, glam, and sublime
	4:28pm Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @4:26 Shiny Heinie by the Fleshtones
	♥ 4:28pm Phillippe: ↳ Sem @4:18 Oh my! The big thing we have going on is a combined litter of a half dozen kit foxes from two mothers living under my next door neighbor's shed -- I have some good pics of them as well. They are driving our dogs nuts though. We're trying to harass the fox a little bit so they don't get too comfy around people -- they can't be denning more than 30 yards from entrances to our and my neighbor's houses. The mothers already treat our yards like they own them, and they just give you a dirty look if they're trotting down the street and you drive up on them. They don't even try to get out of the way half the time -- our speed limit is 25, so we're not a threat in their eyes, I guess
	♥ 4:31pm NotARealDoctor in Norfolk VA: ↳ Phillippe @4:28 OH PICS PICS PICS!!! Show babies please!
	4:31pm Toothgrinder Tom: I wish this shooby-dooby vocal music were more popular.
	4:32pm Monica: Hi, Cheryl the Nerd and Booz!
	♥ 4:38pm DanFA: Hello Monica. First time listening to your show.
	♥ 4:41pm Phillippe: ↳ NotARealDoctor in Norfolk VA @4:31 Here's one: imgur.com...

	♥ 4:42pm Phillippe: ↳ NotARealDoctor in Norfolk VA @4:31 and another: imgur.com...
	4:42pm love2laf: ↳ Phillippe @4:41 Thank you, they're adorbs! You're poor pups though, must drive them mad.
	4:43pm Lenny Kaye: Thank you for the shoutout. Should be fun...you playin' great stuff. Remind your listeners that the admission is a benefit to WFMU...half a century and more of the freest form....
	♥ 4:43pm DanFA: ↳ Monica @4:32 Monica, I just want to thank you for all the great artists you get signed and helped expose to the world.
	4:44pm Monica: Greetings, DanFA, Tara, and SheWolf!
	♥ 4:44pm Enflod: ↳ Song: "Meeting Is a Pleasant Place" by "Sam Lee" Vocal sounds a lot like Bert Jansch
	4:44pm Monica: Here you go, Tara: castexotic.com...
	♥ 4:46pm Phillippe: ↳ love2laf @4:42 ya, our pups are yappy to begin with, but lately, yeesh!
	4:46pm Tara: thanks so much, i was searching and getting nowhere!
	4:47pm Parq: Hadn't heard about that new Raymond Scott release. Gonna have to look for that.
	4:47pm Monica: ↳ Lenny Kaye @4:43 Thx so much, Lenny. And yes, will do!
	4:49pm Monica: Hi, Enflod!
	♥ 4:51pm Enflod: ↳ Monica @4:49 Hi, Monica! Great show. First heard you on a Sunday afternoon filling in for someone—really enjoying your sets.
	4:53pm Toothgrinder Tom: Roy Clark!
	♥ 4:53pm Sem: Stellar musician, good to hear him here.

	4:54pm Old Dave: ↳ Song: "Yesterday When I Was Young (live at Larry's Count... Thanks for this fine oldie
	♥ 4:54pm steveo: Aw, my old TV buddy, Roy
	♥ 4:54pm ∫ydniuß: ↳ Song: "Yesterday When I Was Young (live at Larry's Count... this one always gets me 😢
	♥ 4:54pm rx "rexy" scabin: Roy Clark. That's all.
	4:55pm Bob from Poughkeepsie: Hi Monica, nice to hear you. Hope to see you tomorrow for Lenny Kay.
	4:57pm Monica: Hey there, Old Dave, steveo, and Bob from Poughkeepsie!
	♥ 4:58pm Ike: That segue from Junior Brown to Chappell Roan really threw me for a loop, but in a good way!
	♥ 4:59pm David L.: ↳ Song: "Endless Lawns" by "Kurt Elling feat, Charlie Hunter" Listened to a ton of Kurt Elling back in/after college days, great to hear him again in this context. The whole show has been fantastic, thank you!!
	♥ 5:00pm steveo: Saw Charlie Hunter live once, he's very talented
	♥ 5:00pm Acid Cazh: Just got the formal offer letter from my new employer! Though I see a few spots I need to ask them to change lol ... might be Tuesday before I can submit my resignation to the current job. But either way it's right around the corner.
	♥ 5:01pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @5:00 Future's so bright!
	♥ 5:01pm rx "rexy" scabin: Goodbye and thank you, Monica and Everyone. I must leave to announce/read names at graduation.
	5:02pm Monica: Nay thx, David L. and Ike!
	5:02pm JohnnyR: ↳ Acid Cazh @5:00 Congratulations and condolences on the new j.o.b.
	5:02pm Larry in Merrlin: ↳ Acid Cazh @4:15 Late on this: I suggest "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now" by The Smiths. "Man in a Box" by Alice in Chains worked for me when they put me in a dark, far back cubicle, much like Milton in Office Space. (I retired years ago and snuck out with the stapler.)
	♥ 5:02pm rx "rexy" scabin: ↳ Monica @5:02 Also, great show.
	5:03pm dj4thepeople: Yesssssss with this Stacy Latisaw DEEP CUT! Werk Monica! 👏🏽👏🏽
	♥ 5:03pm chresti: Hi Monica!
	♥ 5:03pm Acid Cazh: ↳ Larry in Merrlin @5:02 lmao I would KILL for a dark far back cubicle, especially if it's one with a door I can shut New job is supposed to be remote, but the offer letter says I have to report to the office (way out on Long Island). I'm sure it's an issue of boilerplate/copy-paste and something getting missed.
	5:04pm Monica: Yes, dj4thepeople and Larry in Merrlin!
	♥ 5:04pm Acid Cazh: It also lists two different job titles, so I know there are some copy/paste errors in it. Speaking of, the new job title is gonna look sick on my resume.
	♥ 5:05pm steveo: My what a delightful set
	5:05pm JohnnyR: ↳ Acid Cazh @5:04 Dungeonmaster?
	♥ 5:05pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @5:04 "Destroyer of Worlds"?
	♥ 5:08pm newton: RC died in 2018
	♥ 5:09pm ∫ydniuß: ↳ Acid Cazh @5:04 “Super Saiyan Level 3”?
	5:09pm Larry in Merrlin: ↳ Acid Cazh @5:03 Congrats on the new job. I hope it stays remote. There was no door to my cubicle and not much privacy.
	♥ 5:10pm chresti: Who is the accordion player giving someone the stink eye?
	♥ 5:11pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @5:04 "Prostetnic Vogon"?
	5:11pm Monica: Thx, newton! Oy, what a blooper!! Hi, chresti!
	♥ 5:11pm Acid Cazh: lmao, nothing quite so doom-evoking, sadly. "Key Accounts Director." Hell if I know what it means, but "Director" sounds bigger than "Manager," which is my current job title (and has been for 10+ years).
	♥ 5:12pm coelacanth∅: Good afternoon Monica
	♥ 5:12pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Checking In, Checking Out" by "The High Llamas" Gideon Gaye was just a perfect album, wasn't it?
	♥ 5:12pm newton: ↳ Monica @5:11 You're keeping him alive playing his music. He was a lot more than the big guy on Hee Haw!
	♥ 5:13pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Power of Love" by "Final Fantasy (Owen Pallet)" I was on a call and missed Owen. I'll have to dip back into the part I missed. Loving the freeform rollercoaster, Monica.
	♥ 5:14pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "Checking In, Checking Out" by "The High Llamas" high steely influence, but better vocals
	♥ 5:14pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:13 But ... but ... that's Krys's show! wfmu.org...
	5:14pm Monica: Good afternoon, coelacanth∅!
	♥ 5:15pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @5:14 I used lower case deliberately, Mr. Editor. Ahem.
	5:15pm andy the painter: great show as usual, Monica. thanks. damn. haven’t heard the High Llamas in a minute. sounds good.
	5:15pm Parq: Monica, remember the old days when I was always cooking during your Sunday evening show? Well, my brand new saute pan just arrived, so I may have to put on one of your archives tonight.
	5:15pm JohnnyR: ↳ chresti @5:10 Hi Chresti, check out super sleuth Snortley's positive ID @3:45
	♥ 5:16pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ andy the painter @5:15 There's new High Llamas! thehighllamas.bandcamp.com...

	♥ 5:22pm Zip7: Do you have another sub coming up next week, Monica?
	♥ 5:23pm chresti: ↳ JohnnyR @5:15 Hi JohnnyR, thanks!
	♥ 5:23pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:16 i appreciate your logical and proper grammar! (there is new high llamas, as opposed to there are new high llamas -as it seems most people would now say, as this particular grammar virus is epidemic)
	5:23pm Monica: Nice to have you here, PMD! Zip7 - nothing currently scheduled! Duane will be in for Mona on 5/31 though!
	♥ 5:24pm chresti: ↳ Snortley @3:45 Thanks Snortley!
	♥ 5:24pm Zip7: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:23 Ancient and sagacious fish!
	♥ 5:25pm Sem: ↳ Parq @5:15 Parq, I first heard Monica on one of those evenings, February 2013.
	♥ 5:25pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Zip7 @5:24 i haven't you in a minute Zipper! how ya been?
	♥ 5:25pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:23 Yes, the llamas may be plural but the band is singular--and so is the album! Glad I could oblige.
	♥ 5:25pm Handy Haversack: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:23 Yar, there be new Llamas -- an' they be high!
	5:26pm headcleaner: ↳ Song: "Hawa Dolo" by "Ali Farka Touré & Toumani Diabate" Have been having not such a fine week, so this is all very much appreciated + needed, Monica
	5:26pm βrian: ↳ Song: "Hawa Dolo" by "Ali Farka Touré & Toumani Diabate" I could just swim in this.
	5:26pm Big Hot Sky: Oooooo la, Toure & Diabate…
	♥ 5:27pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:25 har har!
	♥ 5:27pm Zip7: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:25 Life in Orange County NY: I was talking to the elderly guy who lives a few houses down. He revealed that he has a lot of provisions, guns and land mines stockpiled in the event that "they" come onto his property. He didn't elaborate as to whom "they" were, though.
	♥ 5:27pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @5:25 I always wondered if the llama who went to the dentist on Sesame Street was the original high llama. www.youtube.com...
	♥ 5:29pm Enflod: Sean O'Hagan (High Llamas) was (and still is?) a music journalist and once he met Mike Love (Beach Boys) for an interview but had to leave after only a few minutes because Love was such a jerk
	♥ 5:29pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): This Guy's in Love With the Bed Music.
	♥ 5:30pm newton: ↳ Zip7 @5:27 I feel you Zip. Here in Dutchess there is a shooting range just down the road
	♥ 5:31pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Zip7 @5:27 it's fortunate that he considers you "us" and not "they" then!
	♥ 5:32pm Phillippe: Time for me to call it a wrap. Thanks for a great show Monica! Always a pleasure to hear you
	5:32pm JohnnyR: Can a homeowner have too many land mines?
	5:33pm βrian: I say "on," you say "owe-wan … "

	4:04pm winston legthigh: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:04 cheers!
	4:04pm Marie in Chicago: I just met 2 people who moved back here from Austin. One of the reasons was the stupid state management, ie, a messed up power grid that put a lot of people at risk during extreme cold, as well as increasing heat
	4:05pm Toothgrinder Tom: @Marie that’s cheering news for some reason.
	4:05pm ledzeppelinsucks: Sloppy seconds jobs from Silicon Valley that used to go to Mexico and the Philippines.

	♥ 4:09pm Sem: ↳ Phillippe @4:06 Birds! Two days ago a bunch of crows were mobbing a bald eagle. Instead of just shrugging them off, as usual, it wheeled and held a gull under water, did a 360 and when the thing came up for air, pushed it under again.

	♥ 4:11pm Acid Cazh: ↳ Song: "Highway Patrol" by "Junior Brown" Junior! I saw Junior Brown play an outdoor show at a park in Manhattan once. Friend of mine played a different show with him. He reported that Junior Brown does not drink, but smokes a ton of weed (this was about 15 years ago?) I thought for a second and said, "Makes sense, he sure writes a lot of songs about food."
	4:12pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @4:05 I know. Maybe some things will start changing for the better down there/
	4:12pm JohnnyR: ↳ Song: "Highway Patrol" by "Junior Brown" ACAB... I wonder if anyone has done an anti-cop number using that chord progression.
	4:13pm Monica: Yo, Marie in Chicago, Toothgrinder Tom, ledzeppelinsucksJeff Moore, radioronan, and Gregosaurus!
	♥ 4:15pm Acid Cazh: Looks like I'm gonna put in my two weeks notice on Monday. What are some good songs to listen to when you're about to quit a job that makes you miserable?
	♥ 4:15pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Sem @4:11 Mostly within tolerances here. The domestication of the dog proceeds apace but occupies a lot of my time and still far too many paper towels.
	♥ 4:16pm Phillippe: ↳ Sem @4:09 Oh man, I wish I had seen that! We have osprey nesting across the cove, which means the eagles have cleared out for a bit. I haven't put any pics up yet but I'll send you a link when I do
	4:16pm JohnnyR: ↳ Acid Cazh @4:15 Take This Job And Shove It by Johnny Paycheck springs to mind
	♥ 4:18pm joe mulligan: ↳ Sem @4:09 was it kind of a "you're next crows, you want to sleep with the fishes too?" nature is violent and menacing indeed @Handy
	4:18pm headcleaner: Melting
	♥ 4:18pm Sem: ↳ Phillippe @4:16 That's be great! Also some osprey drama here. Last year the pair had triplets, and it looks like one of 'em has a Mama complex. Saw him this morning making overtures to the female the male had spent 10 days making a new nest for. Feathers flew!
	4:18pm bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): ↳ headcleaner @4:18 i too am melting
	♥ 4:18pm joe mulligan: ↳ ledzeppelinsucks @4:05 truth!
	4:19pm Andres: Good afternoon, Monica and all. Chappel Roan livestream from Coachella was great. Owen Pallet live fantastic the couple times I’ve seen him. I gotta get out to a show.
	♥ 4:19pm NotARealDoctor in Norfolk VA: ↳ Song: "Power of Love" by "Final Fantasy (Owen Pallet)" Oh I'm hootin! I'm hollerin! I'm doing cat whistles with the audience!
	♥ 4:20pm Sem: ↳ joe mulligan @4:18 I guess the eagle had taken enough shit. Yeah, both the crows and the gulls go ape shit especially now during nesting/breeding season when the big bird appears.
	4:21pm Monica: Alright, headcleaner, bixa, and andres!
	♥ 4:22pm paddy in matawan: Great music, Monica!
	4:22pm Monica: howdy, paddy in matawan!

	♥ 4:27pm Booz: Classic Monica, playful, glam, and sublime
	4:28pm Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @4:26 Shiny Heinie by the Fleshtones
	♥ 4:28pm Phillippe: ↳ Sem @4:18 Oh my! The big thing we have going on is a combined litter of a half dozen kit foxes from two mothers living under my next door neighbor's shed -- I have some good pics of them as well. They are driving our dogs nuts though. We're trying to harass the fox a little bit so they don't get too comfy around people -- they can't be denning more than 30 yards from entrances to our and my neighbor's houses. The mothers already treat our yards like they own them, and they just give you a dirty look if they're trotting down the street and you drive up on them. They don't even try to get out of the way half the time -- our speed limit is 25, so we're not a threat in their eyes, I guess
	♥ 4:31pm NotARealDoctor in Norfolk VA: ↳ Phillippe @4:28 OH PICS PICS PICS!!! Show babies please!
	4:31pm Toothgrinder Tom: I wish this shooby-dooby vocal music were more popular.

	4:43pm Lenny Kaye: Thank you for the shoutout. Should be fun...you playin' great stuff. Remind your listeners that the admission is a benefit to WFMU...half a century and more of the freest form....
	♥ 4:43pm DanFA: ↳ Monica @4:32 Monica, I just want to thank you for all the great artists you get signed and helped expose to the world.
	4:44pm Monica: Greetings, DanFA, Tara, and SheWolf!
	♥ 4:44pm Enflod: ↳ Song: "Meeting Is a Pleasant Place" by "Sam Lee" Vocal sounds a lot like Bert Jansch
	4:44pm Monica: Here you go, Tara: castexotic.com...
	♥ 4:46pm Phillippe: ↳ love2laf @4:42 ya, our pups are yappy to begin with, but lately, yeesh!

	♥ 4:54pm rx "rexy" scabin: Roy Clark. That's all.
	4:55pm Bob from Poughkeepsie: Hi Monica, nice to hear you. Hope to see you tomorrow for Lenny Kay.
	4:57pm Monica: Hey there, Old Dave, steveo, and Bob from Poughkeepsie!
	♥ 4:58pm Ike: That segue from Junior Brown to Chappell Roan really threw me for a loop, but in a good way!
	♥ 4:59pm David L.: ↳ Song: "Endless Lawns" by "Kurt Elling feat, Charlie Hunter" Listened to a ton of Kurt Elling back in/after college days, great to hear him again in this context. The whole show has been fantastic, thank you!!
	♥ 5:00pm steveo: Saw Charlie Hunter live once, he's very talented
	♥ 5:00pm Acid Cazh: Just got the formal offer letter from my new employer! Though I see a few spots I need to ask them to change lol ... might be Tuesday before I can submit my resignation to the current job. But either way it's right around the corner.
	♥ 5:01pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @5:00 Future's so bright!
	♥ 5:01pm rx "rexy" scabin: Goodbye and thank you, Monica and Everyone. I must leave to announce/read names at graduation.
	5:02pm Monica: Nay thx, David L. and Ike!
	5:02pm JohnnyR: ↳ Acid Cazh @5:00 Congratulations and condolences on the new j.o.b.
	5:02pm Larry in Merrlin: ↳ Acid Cazh @4:15 Late on this: I suggest "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now" by The Smiths. "Man in a Box" by Alice in Chains worked for me when they put me in a dark, far back cubicle, much like Milton in Office Space. (I retired years ago and snuck out with the stapler.)
	♥ 5:02pm rx "rexy" scabin: ↳ Monica @5:02 Also, great show.
	5:03pm dj4thepeople: Yesssssss with this Stacy Latisaw DEEP CUT! Werk Monica! 👏🏽👏🏽
	♥ 5:03pm chresti: Hi Monica!
	♥ 5:03pm Acid Cazh: ↳ Larry in Merrlin @5:02 lmao I would KILL for a dark far back cubicle, especially if it's one with a door I can shut New job is supposed to be remote, but the offer letter says I have to report to the office (way out on Long Island). I'm sure it's an issue of boilerplate/copy-paste and something getting missed.
	5:04pm Monica: Yes, dj4thepeople and Larry in Merrlin!
	♥ 5:04pm Acid Cazh: It also lists two different job titles, so I know there are some copy/paste errors in it. Speaking of, the new job title is gonna look sick on my resume.
	♥ 5:05pm steveo: My what a delightful set
	5:05pm JohnnyR: ↳ Acid Cazh @5:04 Dungeonmaster?
	♥ 5:05pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @5:04 "Destroyer of Worlds"?
	♥ 5:08pm newton: RC died in 2018
	♥ 5:09pm ∫ydniuß: ↳ Acid Cazh @5:04 “Super Saiyan Level 3”?
	5:09pm Larry in Merrlin: ↳ Acid Cazh @5:03 Congrats on the new job. I hope it stays remote. There was no door to my cubicle and not much privacy.
	♥ 5:10pm chresti: Who is the accordion player giving someone the stink eye?
	♥ 5:11pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @5:04 "Prostetnic Vogon"?
	5:11pm Monica: Thx, newton! Oy, what a blooper!! Hi, chresti!
	♥ 5:11pm Acid Cazh: lmao, nothing quite so doom-evoking, sadly. "Key Accounts Director." Hell if I know what it means, but "Director" sounds bigger than "Manager," which is my current job title (and has been for 10+ years).
	♥ 5:12pm coelacanth∅: Good afternoon Monica
	♥ 5:12pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Checking In, Checking Out" by "The High Llamas" Gideon Gaye was just a perfect album, wasn't it?
	♥ 5:12pm newton: ↳ Monica @5:11 You're keeping him alive playing his music. He was a lot more than the big guy on Hee Haw!
	♥ 5:13pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Power of Love" by "Final Fantasy (Owen Pallet)" I was on a call and missed Owen. I'll have to dip back into the part I missed. Loving the freeform rollercoaster, Monica.
	♥ 5:14pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "Checking In, Checking Out" by "The High Llamas" high steely influence, but better vocals
	♥ 5:14pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:13 But ... but ... that's Krys's show! wfmu.org...
	5:14pm Monica: Good afternoon, coelacanth∅!
	♥ 5:15pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @5:14 I used lower case deliberately, Mr. Editor. Ahem.
	5:15pm andy the painter: great show as usual, Monica. thanks. damn. haven’t heard the High Llamas in a minute. sounds good.
	5:15pm Parq: Monica, remember the old days when I was always cooking during your Sunday evening show? Well, my brand new saute pan just arrived, so I may have to put on one of your archives tonight.
	5:15pm JohnnyR: ↳ chresti @5:10 Hi Chresti, check out super sleuth Snortley's positive ID @3:45

	♥ 5:23pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:16 i appreciate your logical and proper grammar! (there is new high llamas, as opposed to there are new high llamas -as it seems most people would now say, as this particular grammar virus is epidemic)
	5:23pm Monica: Nice to have you here, PMD! Zip7 - nothing currently scheduled! Duane will be in for Mona on 5/31 though!
	♥ 5:24pm chresti: ↳ Snortley @3:45 Thanks Snortley!
	♥ 5:24pm Zip7: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:23 Ancient and sagacious fish!
	♥ 5:25pm Sem: ↳ Parq @5:15 Parq, I first heard Monica on one of those evenings, February 2013.
	♥ 5:25pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Zip7 @5:24 i haven't you in a minute Zipper! how ya been?
	♥ 5:25pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:23 Yes, the llamas may be plural but the band is singular--and so is the album! Glad I could oblige.
	♥ 5:25pm Handy Haversack: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:23 Yar, there be new Llamas -- an' they be high!
	5:26pm headcleaner: ↳ Song: "Hawa Dolo" by "Ali Farka Touré & Toumani Diabate" Have been having not such a fine week, so this is all very much appreciated + needed, Monica
	5:26pm βrian: ↳ Song: "Hawa Dolo" by "Ali Farka Touré & Toumani Diabate" I could just swim in this.
	5:26pm Big Hot Sky: Oooooo la, Toure & Diabate…
	♥ 5:27pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:25 har har!
	♥ 5:27pm Zip7: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:25 Life in Orange County NY: I was talking to the elderly guy who lives a few houses down. He revealed that he has a lot of provisions, guns and land mines stockpiled in the event that "they" come onto his property. He didn't elaborate as to whom "they" were, though.
	♥ 5:27pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @5:25 I always wondered if the llama who went to the dentist on Sesame Street was the original high llama. www.youtube.com...
	♥ 5:29pm Enflod: Sean O'Hagan (High Llamas) was (and still is?) a music journalist and once he met Mike Love (Beach Boys) for an interview but had to leave after only a few minutes because Love was such a jerk
	♥ 5:29pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): This Guy's in Love With the Bed Music.
	♥ 5:30pm newton: ↳ Zip7 @5:27 I feel you Zip. Here in Dutchess there is a shooting range just down the road
	♥ 5:31pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Zip7 @5:27 it's fortunate that he considers you "us" and not "they" then!
	♥ 5:32pm Phillippe: Time for me to call it a wrap. Thanks for a great show Monica! Always a pleasure to hear you
	5:32pm JohnnyR: Can a homeowner have too many land mines?
	5:33pm βrian: I say "on," you say "owe-wan … "
	♥ 5:33pm DanFA: ↳ JohnnyR @5:32 Depends on what state you live in.
	♥ 5:34pm Be Now Homeboy: ↳ Song: "Propa (feat. Beenie Man)" by "MC Lyte" Sounding sooo goooood! ;) FriYay
	♥ 5:34pm Zip7: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:31 I extricated myself from his grasp ASAP
	♥ 5:35pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Be Now Homeboy @5:34 hey, bnowb!
	♥ 5:36pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Zip7 @5:34 Another move would have been to say, "Oh, THEY are already HERE" and then laugh maniacally.
	♥ 5:36pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Enflod @5:29 Mike Love not emitting Love. maybe he's on a mission to enlighten us all in some Kafka, or monty python kind of way
	5:36pm Greg From Brooklyn: Excellent to be starting the weekend with you Monica!
	♥ 5:37pm coelacanth∅: ↳ JohnnyR @5:32 haha!
	5:38pm Monica: Hi, Be Now Homeboy and Greg f/BK!

	5:39pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "Turbulencia" by "Ibelisse Guardia Ferragutti & Fr... Mucho sabor!
	♥ 5:40pm coelacanth∅: how many land mines is TOO many? how many tooth cavities are TOO many? how much meth is TOO MUCH? so often i ask myself these worldly questions.
	5:40pm βrian: ↳ Song: "They Got the Word" by "The Mississippi Mass Choir" Is there a Critical Mass Choir?
	5:42pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: ↳ Phillippe @4:06 Is it a prime lens or a zoom?Focal length, make and model?
	5:48pm βrian: ↳ Song: "Moon Ride" by "Margo Guryan" Moon cheese is Roquefort, isn't it?
	5:48pm Andres: ↳ Song: "Moon Ride" by "Margo Guryan" Great warm up for the Northern Lights. Now if those clouds would just get out of the way!
	5:48pm Monica: Hi, Wild Neil\|\|Peace Al!
