	9:03am Son Of Pantz: kooky
	9:04am clarke: RIP DT
	9:05am PKNY: ↳ Song: "Ramblin' Rose" by "MC5" I wish I could boogie as 1/100 as good as Wayne Kramer in that 1970 footage of the 5 playing this
	9:05am Deano de los Muertos: I must be psychic, I was just singing this between shows
	9:05am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Morning, Ira the K & everyone in K-town.
	9:05am common: ↳ PKNY @9:05 so good
	9:05am Strandlund: Hi ya Ira!!
	9:06am clarke: Dennis Thompson - one of my idols.
	9:07am Spikey BXL: It's the best possible version of the I R A, Ira the K
	9:08am clarke: just because you're not paranoid, it doesn't mean they're not out to get you.
	9:08am Jeff formerly from Rahway: Mondays suck but Ira the K makes them a little bit more tolerable.
	9:09am Franco Twinkie: Howdy Ira! The sun is just coming up out West.
	9:09am Ira: Howdy, farmers!
	9:10am Karl: I'm imagining Joe McGasko hiking The Burren with this soundtrack, mists swirling around him
	9:10am clarke: the world is waiting for the sun to shine.
	9:11am Pedro in Arlington: Hi Ira-Glad the Mets weren't no-hit on Saturday.
	9:11am clarke: ↳ Karl @9:10 ah lad, the mist will have burned off by this toim on ol'emerald.
	9:12am Karl: ↳ clarke @9:11 Na The Burren
	9:12am clarke: hell u say!
	9:13am MFO: Hello IRA and Surface People! I saw YLT way back in early 2000's at the Grog Shop in Cleveland Heights! Guess YLT moved up to the Beachland? What venue is next Ira?
	9:14am Ira: Pedro, me too. Mets announcers were noting that sometimes the home crowd starts rooting for the no-hitter. That's ridiculous. Saw that happen once in SF, when Kevin Brown no-hit the Giants. Couldn't believe my eyes.
	9:15am clarke: you mean the opposing crowd in favor of being no-hit, right? yeah, that's weird.
	9:15am Edgar from Maine: Hi Ira. The show in Portland last year blew the doors off their hinges!
	9:15am Blix: ↳ Karl @9:10 I kinda imagine Joe tracking down Sultans of Ping signed first pressings in Cork.
	9:15am HyperDose: Mr. Ira always plays the most pleasing sounds
	9:16am clarke: ↳ HyperDose @9:15 heya!!!
	9:16am Cal Zone!: Hi Ira, glad to have you live as part of my work morning. Have you been paying any attention to the Syracuse Mets this season? I'm a fan!
	9:17am morphe': Must away, but will catch the Archives.. Thanks Ira ... and all ...
	9:18am clarke: ↳ morphe' @9:17 er ye goin out to find mcgasko?
	9:18am Ira: Cal Zone, have to admit the Syracuse Mets not on my radar.
	9:19am clarke: what's the Syracuse Mets' record?
	9:19am augustejuillet: ↳ Song: "In the Custody of Love" by "Bilders" Perfect tune. Bill Direen forever.
	9:19am Marley P. Dogg: Good morning Ira and friends!
	9:20am bobobobob Plasticland: I realized when I went on tour there's lots of opening acts that R Great Ira...I hear that .. 👍 thanks!!!!!

	9:21am clarke: ↳ morphe' @9:20 he'll find YOU
	9:22am Cal Zone!: ↳ clarke @9:19 They are 22/15 in 2nd place in the International League...4.5 games back from the dreaded Scranton WB Yankees!
	9:22am Son Of Pantz: ↳ bobobobob @9:21 I hear it's not a big college town
	9:23am bobobobob: Charles Waters and Charles Gayles
	9:23am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @9:21 Hello Ken. I have never seen you this early in the morning.
	9:23am clarke: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:22 i do know that the Syracuse Mets have a guy Tyler Magill (3B) who was good in the ncaa
	9:24am clarke: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:22 they aint the Red Barons anymore??
	9:25am Cal Zone!: ↳ Ira @9:18 They have broadcast some of the games on SNY and plan to show a few more. I live about an hour from their stadium and it's a fun place to watch a game. It's a small park and all decked out with Mets logos and stuff. Good team this year. Christian Scott was fun to watch before he got called up.
	9:25am Cal Zone!: ↳ clarke @9:24 They have been the Syracuse Mets for 3 years now.
	9:26am clarke: i like minor league ball. unfortunately, new orleans lost their team. tragedy.
	9:26am clarke: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:25 scranton was the Red Barons.
	9:27am clarke: ↳ clarke @9:26 or maybe still is?
	9:27am Cal Zone!: ↳ clarke @9:26 I live in Rochester and we have a great minor league team and baseball culture with the Rochester Redwings
	9:28am Handy Haversack: Back witchas. Sounding real nice.
	9:28am Edgar from Maine: Portland Sea Dogs
	9:28am clarke: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:27 dang - i looked it up - Scranton's team is now called The Rail Riders.
	9:28am Cal Zone!: ↳ clarke @9:27 They have been the Scranton Rail Riders for many years now. Since 89
	9:29am Edgar from Maine: Hartford is the Yard Goats. A yard goat is a small train engine, not a cloven hoofed mammal.
	9:29am clarke: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:28 yeah, well, i guess i just wasn't born for these times.
	9:30am Blix: Please don't feel compelled to respond to this question, but did YLT ever work with Albini?
	9:30am clarke: the travesty of the new orleans team is that they were called The Zephyrs and the moron new owner changed their name to, ulp, The Baby Cakes - and killed the team.
	9:30am Karl: ↳ Song: "Walter Paisley Is Born" by "Julian Burton/Fred Katz" Did he just say it was the "chooglin' hour"?
	9:31am Karl: (Because I hope so)
	9:31am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "Walter Paisley Is Born" by "Julian Burton/Fred Katz" Busy working, but HELL YEAH A BUCKET OF BLOOD! One of my very favorite movies. RIP Roger Corman!
	9:31am Webhamster Henry: HIra!
	9:32am Rachel Bo Bachel: Good morning Ira the K! Soundin’ sooo good!
	9:32am clarke: ↳ Song: "All Night Long" by "A-Bones" oh yeah!
	9:32am Roberto: ↳ Song: "Walter Paisley Is Born" by "Julian Burton/Fred Katz" Somebody on WFMU played something Corman related last week and I thought, I'd better not comment on how he's still alive, because, you know. Well, I didn't comment, so this one's not on me.
	9:32am DonJuanTijuana: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:27 a fellow 585-er!
	9:32am Cal Zone!: ↳ clarke @9:30 That is a travesty and a tragedy! I'm sorry for your loss!
	9:32am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "All Night Long" by "A-Bones" Oh man, I thought I was the only one with this Roger Corman tribute album! Great stuff.
	9:33am Cal Zone!: ↳ DonJuanTijuana @9:32 Ding Dong, Don!
	9:33am bobob palindrome: billy Miller Rocks
	9:33am clarke: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:32 if you really want a laugh, look up the logo for The Baby Cakes - it makes me kinda ill, tho.
	9:33am Andres: Good morning, Ira and all. “Ring rubber bells, beat cotton gongs, strike silken cymbals, play leathern flutes.” I wanna see that band!
	9:33am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:29 My first cousin once removed was a Yard Goat Social Media Manager. #smallworld
	9:34am alanSixº: gmornin folks, hi ira
	9:34am HyperDose: ↳ Blix @9:30 Close, but no cigar "The one exception to the earnest jangle of the group's salad days is "The Story of Jazz", a track from Yo La Tengo Album #2, New Wave Hot Dogs. It's that album's final track, a pisstakey indie-rock rave-up where Ira Kaplan works out his pigfucker tendencies by name-checking and emulating Steve Albini." www.allmusic.com...
	9:34am Hughie Considine: Morning, all! I gotta get organ-izized ....
	9:34am Philip: good morning Ira.
	9:35am clarke: RIP RC - did not know.
	9:35am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @9:34 u came to the right place!
	9:35am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:33 Cool! MiLB is a sweet gig!
	9:35am I'm with the banned: Mornin Ira!
	9:35am Cheryl The Nerd: Greetings fellow nerds...
	9:36am Greg from ZONE 5: Watched Bucket Of Blood last nite! First movie of his I ever saw (some time in high school…)
	9:36am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @9:35 Mawnin', suh...
	9:36am Marie in Chicago: Hello, Ira, and All!
	9:37am clarke: David J's latest album (now a few years old) is pretty good.
	9:38am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @9:36 have sons risen?
	9:39am Chris in Kensington Bklyn: It's Mannday!
	9:39am clarke: shirtless!!
	9:39am common: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @9:36 watched "Targets" last eve. what an insane film!
	9:39am Edgar from Maine: Can Ira do the next Tuesday Music Trivia?
	9:40am Brendan: ↳ clarke @9:33 The New Orleans Pelicans king cake baby mascot was pretty scary looking.
	9:40am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @9:38 Oddly enough, one son has risen. It was quite a shock.
	9:40am HyperDose: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @9:36 Thanks for that trip to the Twilight Zone!
	9:40am clarke: ↳ Brendan @9:40 ugh.
	9:41am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @9:40 a half-sonny day!
	9:41am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ HyperDose @9:40 Anytime! Always fun to visit other Zones.
	9:42am tim: Hello Ira! Hello everyone! I'm a Herbie Mann fan! Anyone who wears a shirt less than Iggy is alright in my book! Memphis Underground is one of the best dollar binners of all time.
	9:42am clarke: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @9:41 hello Gregory!!!
	9:42am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ tim @9:42 Hey Tim! (Psst...check your email from last night)
	9:43am clarke: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @9:41 quite enjoyed your fill-in on sattaday
	9:43am Cal Zone!: I sang this Butwell song to my mother yesterday, as a tribute to her shovel!
	9:44am John L: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @9:36 Watched Bloody Mama last night for the first time. It's kind of a mess, but there were some great scenes and performances. Everyone mentions Shelley Winters and Robert DeNiro, of course, but the best performances were by Pat Hingle and Robert Walden. Tonight maybe Bucket Of Blood or The Trip. I have a whole Corman box set to choose from.
	9:44am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Roberto @9:32 Years ago a friend and I went to Rodger Cormans compound in Venice (an old lumber yard) to deliver a package (a bag of weed) to a friend who was working there. At the time, I worked on most of the major film lots in L.A. but going to Cormans studio was such a treat, as I grew up watching his trashy movies on late night T.V. in Los Angeles. The lumber yard in question was featured in Bucket of Blood where a bum selling newspapers and yelling 'Man gets his head cut off with a saw - read all about it!' is standing out front. Years later, here I was!
	9:44am clarke: c&w with drum machine.
	9:44am drr: ↳ Brendan @9:40 They killed off the Baby Cakess team, but I think the damn huge-headed mascot still makes appearances at Pelicans games and such. But maybe I dreamed that.
	9:44am Rachel Bo Bachel: Gotta watch out for those office romances
	9:45am clarke: ↳ drr @9:44 no - tis a living nightmare.
	9:45am chresti: Hi Ira and Ira-ites! Coffee stop before work
	9:45am Pedro in Arlington: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:28 They were the Scranton Wilkes-Barre Yankees 2007 - 2012, then became the Rail Riders. The trend is to get away from using the name of the MLB affiliate. Probably sells more merch. The names now tend to be "unique local industry/history" + "quirky animal." Not sure why Syracuse went with "Mets." And of course the greatest minor league baseball name in history was not for a team but an owner in the 1960s: The Richmond Virginians' Romeo Champagne.
	9:45am Roberto: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:44 Nice. You delivered weed, I delivered art.
	9:46am tim: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @9:42 10-4! I think I got an idea. Let me research if it actually works. I'll hit you up soon!
	9:47am Brendan: ↳ clarke @9:45 Amen. That thing was/is unsettling.
	9:47am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:44 wow, neat!
	9:48am Franco Twinkie: Hey Marie! I knew you'd like that one.
	9:48am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:23 ¡Franco! It's Woof Moo 24/7 over here! Good morning!
	9:48am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ clarke @9:43 Thanks! I'll be back on Saturday when Ira, Faye & I unite to form FILL-IN VOLTRON.
	9:49am Cal Zone!: Big Herbie Man fan here. Come join my group... www.facebook.com...
	9:49am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ tim @9:46 Sounds good. The audacity of Audacity is kicking my ass. I'm sure you saw yesterday that my friend suggested using my webcam. Except now I can't find it. So I'm on Staples right now looking up webcams & headsets.
	9:49am Barney Grubbs: ↳ Song: "Acapulco Rain" by "Herbie Mann" is sonny sharrock hiding in there somewhere?
	9:49am clarke: ↳ Brendan @9:47 a brutal reminder of no baseball here. btw, you do know that The Pelicans was the name of the minor league baseball team in nola in the 40s-50's
	9:49am chresti: Roberto - art and weed pair well together!
	9:50am Cal Zone!: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @9:48 Greg, I always enjoy your Fill-Ins! Caught part of your Saturday session!
	9:52am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:48 Yeah, it's great in so many ways. How perfect for him to have a lumber yard as his headquarters. Wonderful that he lived to be 98 (or something like that). Glad you never got into serious trouble (like, ur alive @)) ) from your delivery activities.
	9:53am Karl: Franco, don't ever change
	9:54am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Ira and Everyone.
	9:54am clarke: howdy!
	9:54am tim: ↳ Barney Grubbs @9:49 I don't think he was on that one. Larry Coryell maybe?
	9:55am clarke: ↳ Karl @9:53 is that a Kinks request?
	9:55am Handy Haversack: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @9:45 I thought there was a directive from MLB to stop using the MLB club names for the MILB teams?
	9:57am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:55 i'm not sure about that, but there definitely WAS in regard to the cape cod league, for some teams.
	9:57am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Marie in Chicago @9:52 I was just along for the ride. The grower was a friend of mine. Actually he was my boss. 'Our friend' was someone on our crew, so it was an inside job. I was NEVER a drug dealer.
	9:57am pmcWhenever: ever week one, two or a few mediated friends pass and word bubbles up… it’s great to hear stories of them… a mediated wake… thx Franco
	9:59am John L: ↳ Song: "The Sea" by "Wygalator" This is lovely. I used to see them play around my area quite a bit.
	9:59am Cal Zone!: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:55 Syracuse franchise was picked up by the Mets, they upgraded the park, bought them a new scoreboard, painted Mr. Mets logos everywhere and changed the name to Syracuse Mets in 2018 after having been the Sky Chiefs and Chiefs for many years.
	9:59am Brendan: ↳ clarke @9:49 Unfortunately, the high ups began cutting minor-league affiliates a few years back in a contraction process. Greed. Most minor-league affiliations are short term contracts with the major league teams. When the Nats won the World Series in 2019, their AAA affiliate was Fresno. Not very convenient for calling up a player on short notice in case of injury. So they would stash their guys in the AA team closer by.
	10:00am clarke: i think teams were 'encouraged' to find their own names. i like the name Sky Chiefs and wish i had a tshirt or cap from that. i DO have a Red Barons cap, somewhere.
	10:00am Roberto: ↳ Song: "Sueños" by "Plantamos" Sueños? Yo Los Tengo!
	10:00am Franco Twinkie: ↳ pmcWhenever @9:57 You're welcome. I was put on this Earth to entertain people.
	10:01am clarke: ↳ Brendan @9:59 agree, but i get the proximity thing, too.
	10:01am Andres: ↳ Song: "Sueños" by "Plantamos" Loving it. The spoken lyrics especially.
	10:02am Rachel Bo Bachel: This is so good
	10:03am clarke: ↳ Song: "Chords" by "Sportsguitar" bueno!
	10:04am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Song: "Chords" by "Sportsguitar" Yeah, I'm liking this.
	10:05am Brendan: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:59 The Mets purchased the Syracuse Chiefs, a couple of years before the Chiefs contract with the Nats expired, leaving the Nats having to grab a minor-league affiliate on the other side of the country. That's kind of the way of the league -musical chairs every four years.
	10:05am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:57 I see. Dealing weed always seemed risky to me. No bueno
	10:05am clarke: @Ira - i had never heard Pesos until a few weeks ago, thanks to you. a big miss in my collection. and now, Sportsguitar!!
	10:05am I'm with the banned: ↳ Song: "Sueños" by "Plantamos" Linda canción. Me gusta!
	10:06am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Marie in Chicago @10:05 Not in California.
	10:06am Marie in Chicago: ↳ clarke @10:00 I like the Sky Chiefs as a name. Made me think "Grass Masters" @). (not as good as Sky Chiefs...)
	10:07am clarke: ↳ Marie in Chicago @10:06 yeah, all this PC renaming, i cain't git on board with. but, i am old school.
	10:08am Noguayjose: hey Ira GREAT show! what was that dialogue from? hilarious!
	10:08am Cal Zone!: ↳ Brendan @10:05 Yes, I'm familiar with how this works...having watched the Roc Red Wings switch from the Cardinals>Twins>Nationals over the last several years. Mets made a play for Rochester, but they balked. I think they probably wanted to hold onto their identity...my local team does market themselves well!
	10:08am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:06 hm, interesting. Another Cali thang...
	10:08am toorushed: Loving chicken giblets!!
	10:09am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Bo's Bounce" by "Bo Diddley" YES YES YES!!!
	10:09am clarke: ↳ Song: "Bo's Bounce" by "Bo Diddley" drums: bo hisself!!
	10:09am Ira: Noguayjose, it was a brief excerpt from John & Faith Hubley's amazing movie The Hole, starring Dizzy Gillespie and George Mathews.
	10:10am Jason from Houston: Heyyyyy there.
	10:10am clarke: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:10 how's them tomatoes??
	10:11am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Ira @10:09 Currently streaming on Criterion!
	10:11am Matt in Carrboro: Did anyone else think Sueños sounded like Autumn Sweater? The keyboard chords and even the drumming.
	10:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ Good ☽Monday FMUvianz ~ Yay Ira
	10:13am Brendan: ↳ Song: "You Can't Judge a Book by the Cover" by "The Mugw... This cover is great, in my book.
	10:13am clarke: rev!
	10:13am Jason from Houston: ↳ clarke @10:10 Not too bad. Juliets are starting to turn now. Sooooooo many. Got a couple of large slicers (Champion 2) so far that were juicy and tasty. The stinkbugs are still going nuts. Morning and evening eradication duty.
	10:13am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:13 Hey you!!!
	10:14am clarke: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:13 that blast of early-august last week probably helped.
	10:14am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:13 Hey RR63
	10:15am weezycarneezy: You’re a diamond studied gold tooth Ira
	10:16am clarke: wasn't it Go Where You Wanna Go?
	10:17am Barney Grubbs: ↳ tim @9:54 I only recently learned that he was in Herbie Mann’s band, so every background guitar stutter had me wondering (and the surface noise probably helped too)
	10:17am Jason from Houston: ↳ clarke @10:14 You know it's true. So much rain here as well. Likely another round later today.
	10:18am Marie in Chicago: Hey, just thought of a good(?) name for a band or a variation of the Nuggets series--Boneless Nuggets
	10:18am clarke: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:17 is it raining there, this morn??
	10:18am DonJuanTijuana: ↳ Song: "Prince of Peace" by "Pharoah Sanders" Enjoying this entire show & love the Pharoah bells in the background
	10:18am Jason from Houston: ↳ clarke @10:18 Cloudy and humid. No rain.
	10:19am clarke: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:18 same here *nola
	10:19am Noguayjose: awesome thank you!
	10:19am ClayDavis: Sheeeeeeeeeeeeee
	10:20am Andres: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:13 I like having four seasons but would definitely love a homegrown tomato in May instead of waiting til August.
	10:20am clarke: Single File!!
	10:20am Dean: Meshuggah Genesis
	10:20am Hughie Considine: Saints!
	10:21am Phillippe: howdy
	10:21am clarke: line up, children!!
	10:21am clarke: gosh, the sound just jumps off the grooves, hear!!
	10:21am tim: ↳ Barney Grubbs @10:17 Isn't that an awesome discovery! I was floored when I first learned Sonny played on many Herbie Mann records.
	10:22am Philip: Love The Saints
	10:22am Karl: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:13 My tomato plants are less than a foot high still.
	10:23am Artie: ↳ Song: "Let's Pretend" by "The Saints" A lotta Lou Reed stylings in the vocal on this one.
	10:23am clarke: bailey's finest moment (of many)?
	10:23am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Let's Pretend" by "The Saints" Definitely pops more than the CD version I know and love.
	10:23am Zach in Ft Collins: Loving the set this morning, Ira! Curious if there's been any forward movement on getting a YLT song in GTA VI :)
	10:24am Rachel Bo Bachel: Thank you so much for filling in Ira! This Saints is so beautiful and jangly :) Everybody have a great day xo
	10:24am Ira: Jim Hendricks did not write a Mamas & Papas song. He wrote Johnny Rivers's Summer Rain.
	10:24am clarke: moon martin?
	10:24am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @10:20 Yesterday I read the story about Cal Berkely eliminating the anthropology library in The New York Times. So misguided, in my opinion.
	10:25am clarke: ↳ Ira @10:24 that is one killer tune. damn.
	10:25am clarke: ↳ Song: "Lucky Charms" by "Neptune's Car" beginning sounded like moon martin.
	10:26am Jason from Houston: ↳ Andres @10:20 For sure. I get plants in the ground the last week of February if not before. Zone 9b gardening... Phew.
	10:27am Dean: Yes, Anthro, but also a physics/stats (or some such) space, too. The spaces have been closed, but the collections and subject specialists remain. The materials are now integrated with the main library. The science move is arguably sensible, since most researchers work exclusively online. Anthro is a harder argument to make, but money trumps all.
	10:27am clarke: boyce/hart
	10:28am Jason from Houston: ↳ Karl @10:22 Just sent you a picture from last week. I feel like they are somehow taller now. LOL
	10:28am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Hooray for single file. & hooray for this show so far. What a great morning.
	10:28am tim: ↳ Song: "I Wanna Be Free" by "Vivian Reed" Whoa! Excellent version.
	10:28am Dusty in Denver: Enjoying the music and discussion.
	10:31am clarke: give the man a cigar!
	10:31am Barney Grubbs: ↳ tim @10:21 It's great to hear him fitting his style in with a straighter outfit (and great that Herbie Mann had him in the group for so long).
	10:31am clarke: and a guitar.
	10:31am clarke: great strings!
	10:32am Son Of Pantz: What a cad, Willie!
	10:34am Dennis Diken: great show, Sir K! heartwarming to hear Willie Restum, he was a dear friend. His book “They All Came To See Me” - highly recommend!
	10:34am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Song: "Ape Man" by "Aaron Neville" This is a Bad Animals song.
	10:35am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Ape Man" by "Aaron Neville" Not to be confused with Tobor the Eighth Man.
	10:35am Ira: Dennis, I'm in awe! Gotta get a copy of that book.
	10:36am Andres: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:26 We are in Zone 5 here, especially when Greg is on the air. ;) A or B depending who you ask. The berry canes are coming along so all is well.
	10:37am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @10:27 Of course it does. But anthropology is non-negotiable. It tells us about where we came from, and hopefully helps us navigate where we might be going. As someone who once slept on the street in Berkeley, I find this a foreboding sign about that city and where it might be headed.
	10:40am clarke: ↳ Ira @10:35 i'm hardly ever conscious at this hour, either.
	10:40am newton: Always happy when Essential Logic gets into the mix!
	10:40am Cheryl The Nerd: I think I'm one step closer to becoming a dj. I just bought a webcam, a headset, and a Yeti mic.
	10:41am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you, Ira and Everyone. I must go. The GAs are holding an "rx scabin Appreciation Day" whatever that is.
	10:41am Jason from Houston: ↳ Andres @10:36 Hahaha! I have one Dewberry patch that I either cut all the way back or let go depending on the year.
	10:41am Dean: Not the city, but the University, two distinct entities, often in competition, e.g., for space. The move is part of a larger, even global effort to reduce access to "soft" disciplines, like the humanities and social sciences.
	10:42am Son Of Pantz: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @10:40 Or at least start a podcast. Lord knows we need more!
	10:42am clarke: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @10:41 that's every day right?
	10:42am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Pompton Turnpike" by "Tiny Bradshaw and His Orche... Swingin'--bobbity loo bop!
	10:42am Marie in Chicago: Swingin'--bobbity loo bop!
	10:43am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Son Of Pantz @10:42 Nah, I'm trying to do a drop-in. Been trying to do it since before Christmas (ask Tim). But I keep getting foiled by technology.
	10:44am clarke: so.. you don't need that cam!!
	10:44am rx "rexy" scabin: @clarke I wish.
	10:45am clarke: mose!
	10:45am Artie: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @10:43 Bring it on, Cheryl!!
	10:45am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ clarke @10:44 I might if the cam has a built in mic and I need to record a mic break. That's what was tripping me up last night.
	10:45am βrian: I recall when Michigan eliminated Geography. Turned out they never imagined the how the field of geographic data would change the world.
	10:45am Michele with One "L": Great show Ira!
	10:46am Artie: ↳ βrian @10:45 See how that worked out for them? Lost a whole peninsula across the waters. Hah!
	10:46am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ alanSixº @9:34 gmornin hoodlum, everything OK?
	10:47am tim: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @10:40 Woohoo! My microphone literally fell apart when I was trying to record the Drop In I was suppposed to do in a couple weeks. I took it as a sign to bow out this time around - hahaha!
	10:47am βrian: ↳ Artie @10:46 And you can't just go lopping off somebody's peninsula.
	10:48am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ tim @10:47 It might be too late for me. But I figure if I can get this figured out, I'll be ready for the next opportunity.
	10:48am tim: ↳ βrian @10:45 Well, there's Detroit, West Michigan, Up North, Macinac Island and the U.P. What else is there to know?
	10:48am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @10:41 Good point. The fracas about annexing Peoples Park for student housing is a gordian knot I have very little constructive to say about. Except this: The tribal nature of street culture in Berkeley might be a worthy study for a future anthropologist.
	10:48am Artie: ↳ βrian @10:47 Sometimes they do just float away tho...
	10:48am sgillies: ↳ Song: "My Baby Loves Lovin'" by "Hyla Parker" Taking care of everything!
	10:50am clarke: quite the array of 45's.
	10:51am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:48 I've got a friend working at Berkeley right now--physics department
	10:51am tim: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @10:48 Maybe bring up the question you emailed yesterday to the braintrust here. There must be a way to convert the voice recording file to something Audacity will accept.
	10:51am Franco Twinkie: Do you visit?
	10:51am clarke: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @10:51 what do you mean you 'have' him working - for you? ha ha ha. nyyc!
	10:52am Dean: Agreed re: Peoples Park. Too many variables at play for my feeble mind. Berkeley has had some celebrity anthropologists over the years. Whenever I meet Cal-trained anthropologists--I have met at least two--I bring up their names. Alan Dundes, for example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Dundes Buddy of mine teaches anthro-like courses at a local CSU, most recently a course on gaming culture. He's also done a course on subcultures, e.g., the SF punk scene.
	10:52am Sarf: Hi Ira, Hi surface noiseniks! Love the show :)
	10:52am Chief Guy: Franco has a good point about anthropology. Many Berkeley Peoples Park residents are re-developing tails.
	10:53am Dean: A professor or other kind of researcher, Cheryl The Nerd?
	10:53am Franco Twinkie: ↳ clarke @10:51 She did not say 'have.'
	10:53am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ clarke @10:51 I meant that I have a friend--I know, hard to believe I have friends, right?
	10:54am clarke: ↳ tim @10:51 i stopped using Audacity a long time ago - but there used to be a conversion thingie.
	10:54am clarke: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @10:53 you got people workin all over for ya!!
	10:54am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Dean @10:53 I think she's a researcher. I know she doesn't have teaching responsibilities--she says she doesn't have the patience to teach. I know she's working on a 9-year photon project. Don't ask me what a photon project is, I have no idea.
	10:56am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ tim @10:51 Good idea in theory. The problem is all my Audacity stuff is on my home computer, and I'm at work where my stuff is not.
	10:56am clarke: ↳ Song: "I Need You More Than Ever" by "The Montclairs" from Montclair?
	10:56am clarke: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @10:56 put them on a zip file??
	10:56am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Song: "I Need You More Than Ever" by "The Montclairs" I hope A6D is paying attention right now...
	10:57am Artie: ↳ clarke @10:54 Foobar2000 (also free to use) has a rich set of conversion plug-ins. And VLc is quite the Swiss Army Knife of audio utility, if you can figure out how to perform a particular task.
	10:57am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ clarke @10:56 Why would I do that?
	10:57am clarke: uh, so you can bring the files to work?
	10:59am DonJuanTijuana: ↳ Song: "Attica Massacre" by "Willie & West" This is HEAVY!
	10:59am Noir Lover: ↳ Song: "Attica Massacre" by "Willie & West" Singing for his life
	10:59am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ clarke @10:57 I can't upload stuff like this onto my work computer. That's a no-no.
	10:59am clarke: ah.
	11:00am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "I Say a Little Prayer for You" by "Wes Montgomery" Glorious.
	11:00am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "I Say a Little Prayer for You" by "Wes Montgomery" Wes was all thumbs in the best possible way.
	11:01am Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "I Say a Little Prayer for You" by "Wes Montgomery" It's quite often that I turn on the radio right when someone is playing a Burt Bacharach song. There must be a "BB" signal in the sky that I'm unconsciously aware of.
	11:01am Dean: What's a photon project? Heh, just kidding. So, perhaps a post-doc, fellow, somebody funded by a grant... If she visits the law library, have her ask for me. But I doubt she ever has a reason to swing by the law library. We're across a quad from the former Anthropology Library!
	11:03am clarke: nice Files. case closed.
	11:03am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Dean @11:01 Probably something like that. I don't really know what she does, my feeble brain doesn't understand it. I just know she's got a PhD in physics and she takes songwriting workshops for fun.
	11:05am Wendy del Formaggio: I know you know this, Ira, but Naomi Neville is one of Allen Toussaint's nommes de plume.
	11:05am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @11:01 So, could you see the trucks pull up and haul off all the books from the Anthropology Library from your office window?
	11:06am Dean: btw, the Anthro building has a stairwell with acoustics that'll put the fear of gosh in you. I keep meaning to bring my recorder to campus to test the decay. My office, Franco, is 20 ft. underground: no windows.
	11:06am clarke: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @11:05 natch.
	11:07am Handy Haversack: Single File got me through a cat-vomit incident, bed stripping, lots of cleaning, an urgent puppy in the middle of it all, loading the washer, and a shower and shave. So that's pretty good! Thanks, Ira.
	11:07am DonJuanTijuana: Looks like Saturday will be a banger too!
	11:07am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Lenny's evening at Monty Hall was so good. So happy to have been there.
	11:07am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:07 You do more before 12noon than most of us can do in a weekend!
	11:08am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:07 Single File of Doom right there. Sorry that happened.
	11:08am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:07 things are swingin' in the kingdom!
	11:08am Cheryl The Nerd: Speaking of Monty Hall events, anyone hitting the sale on Saturday?
	11:08am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @11:05 That's right! Naomi Neville wrote Pie Crust, if not a favorite song - a favorite subject!
	11:09am queems: thanks to gary cohen for literally everything
	11:10am Noir Lover: Mike Breen and Clyde Frasier would like to have a word.
	11:10am Dean: Naomi is one of my favorite brief palindromes.
	11:10am Jeff Golick: The elevated nature of GaryKeithRon only more evident when the Mets are on ESPN, as they were this weekend.
	11:10am Ira: Yup, Handy, it felt like a long segment, and you just proved it.
	11:11am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Morning all! Long day ahead, need to stack my hours -- tix for Echo and the Bunnymen Friday!
	11:12am Handy Haversack: ↳ Ira @11:10 Sometimes, we need extra help!
	11:12am clarke: To Tell The Truth
	11:12am Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:08 Mmm... pie crust...
	11:13am clarke: that's a ukelele
	11:13am Ira: Noir Lover, I love Clyde, but I stand by my assessment.
	11:14am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @11:12 I made the first mulberry pie of the season last Friday... ... I shall eat the remaining slice shortly.
	11:14am Ira: Jeff, agree wholeheartedly. That discussion of bat speed was brutal.
	11:15am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Candy Apple Red" by "Bonnie Guitar" Wow, I love how that To Tell the Truth clip drifted into this, which I've never heard before.
	11:16am Brendan in Carrboro: Ira, thoughts on Christian Scott’s pitching so far?
	11:16am Dan S: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @11:08 I might go. I probably won't get there until about 3 PM. How about you? Want to say hello if we're there at the same time? The thing is, I'm practically out of room for any more CDs in my modest-sized apt.
	11:16am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Candy Apple Red" by "Bonnie Guitar" faved this on sheilab's show 3 years ago...
	11:16am Handy Haversack: I have to say, Yankee radio broadcasts have lost much of their charm without Sterling. He was terrible, just terrible. But he was ours. And he was always very much himself. It's less vibrant without him, if more technically accurate. (Your playing, while technically proficient, lacks passion!)
	11:16am Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:14 Oh nice! My mulberry tree right outside my south-facing bedroom windows was pruned this winter. She gives an immense amount of fruit, but she's so tall I can only reach some of them. They bring the birds, though, so I like it. I learned recently that about a century ago, Bellows Falls had a silk/worm industry. Likely why I have this tree.
	11:18am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Dan S @11:16 I'm planning to get there right when the doors open. How long I stay depends on how many CDs they have for us to pick through. I suspect it's going to be the leftovers from the April sale, which means it won't take long. So who knows? Look for an exhausted middle aged lady with a purple backpack.
	11:18am Pedro in Arlington: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:16 You just can't predict baseball broadcasting, Handy.
	11:19am Andres: ↳ Song: "Jeserene" by "Desmond Dekker" Waking me up more effectively than my mug of tea!
	11:20am clarke: ↳ Song: "The Old Casino" by "John Davis & Dennis Callaci" john davis from Superdrag????
	11:20am tim: ↳ Song: "Jeserene" by "Desmond Dekker" That was just about the best!
	11:21am Dean: Casino... I was in Las Vegas yesterday, only the airport, on a brief layover. My 13yo daughter saw it for the first time. As we deplaned, she remarked on the plethora of gambling games in the airport, "Already!" Last time I was in LV was many years ago, another layover. Last time I set foot in LV outside the airport was 1976, a Yes concert, when I was 17.
	11:21am Handy Haversack: ↳ tim @11:20 Desmond Dekker so good!
	11:21am Handy Haversack: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:18 It's not like football, you know.
	11:21am drr: ↳ clarke @11:20 Folk Implosion John Davis.
	11:22am bo: This isn’t Simon Joyner??!!
	11:22am clarke: ↳ drr @11:21 ah, my old neighbor.
	11:22am Dan S: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @11:18 OK, if I go I'll look for someone meeting that description:) If I don't go or don't see you, enjoy and good hunting!
	11:23am Handy Haversack: ↳ Dean @11:21 One of the most depressing sights I have seen was the smoking area (I won't call it a "lounge") in the Reno airport. A glassed cube, completely obscured with brown-gray fog, with the lights of slots winking in the depths of the murk. Oh, I went in.
	11:23am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Dan S @11:22 You too!
	11:23am clarke: ↳ drr @11:21 hey - how was Echo and the bunnymen the other night??
	11:24am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @11:16 I had the same problem two years ago. The idiot tree trimmers cut off the veil, but neglected to get the points out of the powerlines. Fortunately, mulberry trees regenerate quickly. Anyway, as the old saying goes - new wood bears fruit. This year the veil is back, and dropping fruit like a motherfucker!
	11:24am Dean: Those smoking areas seem positively carceral. At this very moment, my 18yo son is en route on a flight from LV straddling the Nevada/California border, due to arrive in a few minutes. I'm heading to OAK to grab him.
	11:25am Franco Twinkie: Later, Dean!
	11:25am Roberto: ↳ Dean @11:24 Grab dat boi!
	11:25am Yes: lovely sounds, Ira
	11:25am Karl: No smokers in there, just slot machines on fire, again.
	11:26am Dennis Diken: ↳ Ira @10:35 Willie was an old time hipster/entertainer and a beautiful cat. what stories he had - he played the opening of the Cal-Neva Lodge! The Smithereens hired him as a greeter (bari sax around his neck) at a record release bash at Barney's Beanery in the early 90s. to quote one of his fab 45s, may he "Restum In Peace"!
	11:26am Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:24 Yeah, this tree always drops berries like a motherfucker, too. It's healthy and happy. My tree guys did a great job. When I have my first mulberry in a month or two, I'll think of you.
	11:26am Hoboken Jack: Hello all! Talking to text and listening in the car while on the way from Maryland to Rehoboth to have lunch with Mr Fallon.
	11:26am clarke: ↳ Dennis Diken @11:26 mmm... Barney's chili!!
	11:27am clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:26 jaack - steve fallon?? say hey!
	11:28am Handy Haversack: ↳ Karl @11:25 It's gotta be so DUE!
	11:28am Hoboken Jack: ↳ clarke @11:27 Will do!
	11:28am tim: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:26 Hey Jack!
	11:28am Dennis Diken: ↳ clarke @11:26 I typically went for their pickleburger (pickles cooked into the beef)
	11:28am drr: As you predicted, the singer wasn't really up to the task. He also kept us waiting for half an hour while somebody went to fetch him a milkshake. Band was good. I was surprised and interested that much of the crowd dressed like they were going to a symphony gala. There was a heckler behind me who decided to sing "The Killing Moon" because Ian M. was doing a pretty bad job of it (though better than this guy). I turned around to see who this noisome fellow was. He looked like he came from work at the law fim, defending a platinum mining concern against environmentalists.
	11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Spoon's Caress" by "Joe Beck" ...gittar had me thinking BuffaloSpingfield arf a mo...
	11:29am clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:28 tell him i say thanks for a haven oasis for touring folks!
	11:29am Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Dennis Diken @11:28 Say whaaat?! That sounds delicious. Also, hi Dennis!
	11:30am Ira: Dennis, in 1995, Yo La Tengo played two weeks on the Lollapalooza side stage. We played a Willie Restum record each afternoon while we set up. "Here we go!" among more obvious pleasure, conjures up those crazy couple of weeks.
	11:30am clarke: ↳ drr @11:28 damn!
	11:31am clarke: ↳ Ira @11:30 damn!
	11:31am Karl: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 Handy, you know, we need to start a writing/art zine named Slot Machines on Fire. Get Jason from Houston to mimeograph it. Get you writing again. Get me writing again. If a few slot machines have to meet their fiery end, well, so be it.
	11:32am Yes: ↳ Song: "Slow Jibon Re" by "Immy & the Mahoots" :)
	11:32am Handy Haversack: ↳ Karl @11:31 They knew the risks. Or they should've!
	11:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...sometimes fiddling with filters or presses & dumping grounds what have you makes me think being a caffeine addict is as bad as smoking ...but just for a minute...
	11:33am Roberto: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:33 Nothing is as bad as smoking, as far as second-hand effects go.
	11:34am Brian in UK: Ira, nice to 'see' you & all the Monday folks.
	11:34am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Karl @11:31 I have a doozy of a Las Vegas gambling at the airport story....
	11:34am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @11:33 I suppose a second-hand effect of a caffeine addiction might be spilling your coffee on someone's fancy sweater.
	11:34am Karl: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:34 To Saturday night and the Marty Party Line!
	11:34am Handy Haversack: ↳ Roberto @11:33 Well, war. And beef eating sure ain't good for others' future prospects!
	11:34am Dan S: ↳ Song: "Slow Jibon Re" by "Immy & the Mahoots" A Mahout is an elephant driver/keeper in India. This group spells it a bit differently. The same thing?
	11:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Roberto @11:33 Point taken but have you been in my orbit when truly caffed. Yerknow ...whut would you like to talk about. No seriously anything...
	11:35am chresti: I was told that I liked to eat cigarette butts when I was a toddler.
	11:35am drr: ↳ Dan S @11:34 I learned that word from reading the lyrics to Joan Armatrading's "Drop The Pilot".
	11:36am tim: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:34 Does it end with you either winning and/or flying an airplane?
	11:36am Marie in Chicago: Hey, lovin' the set
	11:36am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Karl @11:34 Of course! My first responsibility, but as a written text...
	11:36am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ tim @11:36 Maybe he won an airplane.
	11:36am Roberto: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:34 Hmm second-hand bullshit v second-hand smoke...I'll get back to you on that one.
	11:36am Hoboken Jack: ↳ Dennis Diken @11:28 Dennis! We have to get chatzky out for NJ pizza.
	11:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...we in cahoots with the Mahouts to caffeinate the oliphants...
	11:37am chresti: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:37 In caffoots
	11:38am Dan S: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:37 Is that a haiku? I like it, in any case.
	11:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Roberto @11:36 ...perhaps even smoke could be an effective defense against nonconsensual compulsive communications...
	11:38am Noir Lover: Opening for Neil Young, the east village's own Reverend Billy and the Stop Shopping Choir
	11:38am Franco Twinkie: ↳ tim @11:36 No, but it will make you piss your pants laughing when you're not holding your breath in fear.
	11:38am yerfriendpaul: Enjoying the show, Ira!
	11:40am HyperDose: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:36 The one thing about NJ I miss is the pizza
	11:40am chresti: ↳ Song: "The Man With the Cigar" by "Lou Courtney" Darnit I missed single file!
	11:40am Handy Haversack: I'll be at the Myriam Gendron show. Anyone else?
	11:40am bo: I like your Jimmy Goodman patter, Ira
	11:42am tim: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:38 That sounds even better!
	11:43am Franco Twinkie: I've been holding on to this one.
	11:43am tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:40 Damn! I wish I could be there for that show! Will Marissa Anderson and Jim White playing with her?
	11:43am 12539: Thanks, Ira!
	11:44am chresti: Cletus is now on my list for future cat names!
	11:44am Andres: ↳ Ira @11:30 Your mention had me look back at the lineups for the years I attended (was away in ‘95). I was left reeling by the ton of bands I missed due to not being familiar with them at the time and not being able to be three or four places at once.
	11:44am Roberto: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:38 It would certainly work for anyone trying to avoid interacting with me.
	11:44am northguineahills: ↳ Noir Lover @11:38 woah, love reverend billy!
	11:44am yerfriendpaul: I was in the car when Ira praised Gary Cohen’s talents as Met’s announcer. I’m in full agreement! I grew up a Sox fan and loved the chemistry Jerry Remy and Don Orsillo had. I think Gary has a great chemistry with Ron and Keith. Makes watching the games so much more enjoyable
	11:46am Scott Williams: ↳ tim @11:43 Hi Tim - yep, Jim & Marisa join Myriam at LPR and on my show. Thanks for the plug, Ira!
	11:47am Handy Haversack: ↳ tim @11:43 And they are on several tracks on the new album. Diligently noted in the Discogs listing by your friendly neighborhood Handy Haversack.
	11:47am Andres: Mary Poppins! Love this ending!
	11:48am northguineahills: now this is fun sun ra!
	11:48am Dan S: Thanks for the show, Ira! I enjoyed the part of it I heard. Yes, I'm awed by "the amazing percentage of records that are picked on his show as hits and eventually go on to become the nation's best selling records," as your profile puts it.
	11:48am chresti: ↳ Song: "Let's Go Fly a Kite" by "Sun Ra" This is pretty true to the original
	11:49am clarke: thnx ira yassss
	11:50am Chris in Kensington Bklyn: Summer Thunder at Union Pool looks really awesome this year. Guerilla Toss, Rosali, Joe Bataan and many more.
	11:51am Gregosaurus: ↳ Song: "Let's Go Fly a Kite" by "Sun Ra" Ever notice nobody ever tells you to "go fly a kite" anymore?
	11:51am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Let's Go Fly a Kite" by "Sun Ra" Just glorious.
	11:52am praveena108: gorgeous
	11:52am Hughie Considine: Kites are fun.
	11:52am Crownless Gander: Well, now I gotta watch Mary Poppins again.
	11:52am praveena108: which performance is this?
	11:52am northguineahills: awesome ira, thanks!
	11:53am Franco Twinkie: What a treat Ira! You've made this gloomy Monday morning something really special.
	11:53am Listener Bryan (the Professor): What the hell, is it almost noon already? That flew! Thanks, Ira. Sending best wishes to your Producer, too.
	11:53am northguineahills: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:52 i see how free your design is...
	11:53am Jason from Houston: Many thanks, Ira. Cheers, good radio buddies.
	11:53am Dan S: Perhaps WFMU should organize a listener kite-flying event.
	11:53am Handy Haversack: Many thanks, Ira! A real treat. Single File was just long enough -- I needed it! Stay Iraned on, patches!
	11:53am Ochre Ogre: Thanks Ira!
	11:54am Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Crownless Gander @11:52 Our preteen has discovered musical theater and a profound love for Julie Andrews, it's been on heavy rotation. Never gets old!
	11:54am Ira: Thanks everybody!!! So much fun.
	11:54am chresti: Thanks Ira!
	11:54am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Dan S @11:53 I'm holding out for karaoke at Monty Hall! I've heard it's been done before...
	11:54am clarke: thnx
	11:54am tim: Thanks, Ira! Excellent show today!
	11:54am Cheryl The Nerd: Thanks Ira!
	11:55am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @11:54 I trust she's heard the soundtrack to Camelot?
	11:55am Greg from ZONE 5: Great stuff Ira! See ya Saturday.

	9:03am clarke: ra-dio re-dio
	9:03am Son Of Pantz: kooky
	9:04am clarke: RIP DT
	9:05am PKNY: ↳ Song: "Ramblin' Rose" by "MC5" I wish I could boogie as 1/100 as good as Wayne Kramer in that 1970 footage of the 5 playing this
	9:05am Deano de los Muertos: I must be psychic, I was just singing this between shows
	9:05am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Morning, Ira the K & everyone in K-town.
	9:05am common: ↳ PKNY @9:05 so good
	9:05am Strandlund: Hi ya Ira!!

	9:07am Spikey BXL: It's the best possible version of the I R A, Ira the K
	9:08am clarke: just because you're not paranoid, it doesn't mean they're not out to get you.
	9:08am Jeff formerly from Rahway: Mondays suck but Ira the K makes them a little bit more tolerable.
	9:09am Franco Twinkie: Howdy Ira! The sun is just coming up out West.
	9:09am Ira: Howdy, farmers!
	9:10am Karl: I'm imagining Joe McGasko hiking The Burren with this soundtrack, mists swirling around him
	9:10am clarke: the world is waiting for the sun to shine.
	9:11am Pedro in Arlington: Hi Ira-Glad the Mets weren't no-hit on Saturday.
	9:11am clarke: ↳ Karl @9:10 ah lad, the mist will have burned off by this toim on ol'emerald.
	9:12am Karl: ↳ clarke @9:11 Na The Burren
	9:12am clarke: hell u say!
	9:13am MFO: Hello IRA and Surface People! I saw YLT way back in early 2000's at the Grog Shop in Cleveland Heights! Guess YLT moved up to the Beachland? What venue is next Ira?
	9:14am Ira: Pedro, me too. Mets announcers were noting that sometimes the home crowd starts rooting for the no-hitter. That's ridiculous. Saw that happen once in SF, when Kevin Brown no-hit the Giants. Couldn't believe my eyes.
	9:15am clarke: you mean the opposing crowd in favor of being no-hit, right? yeah, that's weird.
	9:15am Edgar from Maine: Hi Ira. The show in Portland last year blew the doors off their hinges!
	9:15am Blix: ↳ Karl @9:10 I kinda imagine Joe tracking down Sultans of Ping signed first pressings in Cork.
	9:15am HyperDose: Mr. Ira always plays the most pleasing sounds
	9:16am clarke: ↳ HyperDose @9:15 heya!!!
	9:16am Cal Zone!: Hi Ira, glad to have you live as part of my work morning. Have you been paying any attention to the Syracuse Mets this season? I'm a fan!

	9:18am clarke: ↳ morphe' @9:17 er ye goin out to find mcgasko?
	9:18am Ira: Cal Zone, have to admit the Syracuse Mets not on my radar.
	9:19am clarke: what's the Syracuse Mets' record?
	9:19am augustejuillet: ↳ Song: "In the Custody of Love" by "Bilders" Perfect tune. Bill Direen forever.
	9:19am Marley P. Dogg: Good morning Ira and friends!
	9:20am bobobobob Plasticland: I realized when I went on tour there's lots of opening acts that R Great Ira...I hear that .. 👍 thanks!!!!!

	9:23am bobobobob: Charles Waters and Charles Gayles
	9:23am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @9:21 Hello Ken. I have never seen you this early in the morning.
	9:23am clarke: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:22 i do know that the Syracuse Mets have a guy Tyler Magill (3B) who was good in the ncaa
	9:24am clarke: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:22 they aint the Red Barons anymore??
	9:25am Cal Zone!: ↳ Ira @9:18 They have broadcast some of the games on SNY and plan to show a few more. I live about an hour from their stadium and it's a fun place to watch a game. It's a small park and all decked out with Mets logos and stuff. Good team this year. Christian Scott was fun to watch before he got called up.
	9:25am Cal Zone!: ↳ clarke @9:24 They have been the Syracuse Mets for 3 years now.
	9:26am clarke: i like minor league ball. unfortunately, new orleans lost their team. tragedy.
	9:26am clarke: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:25 scranton was the Red Barons.
	9:27am clarke: ↳ clarke @9:26 or maybe still is?
	9:27am Cal Zone!: ↳ clarke @9:26 I live in Rochester and we have a great minor league team and baseball culture with the Rochester Redwings
	9:28am Handy Haversack: Back witchas. Sounding real nice.
	9:28am Edgar from Maine: Portland Sea Dogs
	9:28am clarke: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:27 dang - i looked it up - Scranton's team is now called The Rail Riders.
	9:28am Cal Zone!: ↳ clarke @9:27 They have been the Scranton Rail Riders for many years now. Since 89
	9:29am Edgar from Maine: Hartford is the Yard Goats. A yard goat is a small train engine, not a cloven hoofed mammal.
	9:29am clarke: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:28 yeah, well, i guess i just wasn't born for these times.
	9:30am Blix: Please don't feel compelled to respond to this question, but did YLT ever work with Albini?
	9:30am clarke: the travesty of the new orleans team is that they were called The Zephyrs and the moron new owner changed their name to, ulp, The Baby Cakes - and killed the team.
	9:30am Karl: ↳ Song: "Walter Paisley Is Born" by "Julian Burton/Fred Katz" Did he just say it was the "chooglin' hour"?
	9:31am Karl: (Because I hope so)
	9:31am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "Walter Paisley Is Born" by "Julian Burton/Fred Katz" Busy working, but HELL YEAH A BUCKET OF BLOOD! One of my very favorite movies. RIP Roger Corman!
	9:31am Webhamster Henry: HIra!
	9:32am Rachel Bo Bachel: Good morning Ira the K! Soundin’ sooo good!
	9:32am clarke: ↳ Song: "All Night Long" by "A-Bones" oh yeah!
	9:32am Roberto: ↳ Song: "Walter Paisley Is Born" by "Julian Burton/Fred Katz" Somebody on WFMU played something Corman related last week and I thought, I'd better not comment on how he's still alive, because, you know. Well, I didn't comment, so this one's not on me.
	9:32am DonJuanTijuana: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:27 a fellow 585-er!
	9:32am Cal Zone!: ↳ clarke @9:30 That is a travesty and a tragedy! I'm sorry for your loss!
	9:32am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "All Night Long" by "A-Bones" Oh man, I thought I was the only one with this Roger Corman tribute album! Great stuff.
	9:33am Cal Zone!: ↳ DonJuanTijuana @9:32 Ding Dong, Don!
	9:33am bobob palindrome: billy Miller Rocks
	9:33am clarke: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:32 if you really want a laugh, look up the logo for The Baby Cakes - it makes me kinda ill, tho.
	9:33am Andres: Good morning, Ira and all. “Ring rubber bells, beat cotton gongs, strike silken cymbals, play leathern flutes.” I wanna see that band!
	9:33am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:29 My first cousin once removed was a Yard Goat Social Media Manager. #smallworld
	9:34am alanSixº: gmornin folks, hi ira
	9:34am HyperDose: ↳ Blix @9:30 Close, but no cigar "The one exception to the earnest jangle of the group's salad days is "The Story of Jazz", a track from Yo La Tengo Album #2, New Wave Hot Dogs. It's that album's final track, a pisstakey indie-rock rave-up where Ira Kaplan works out his pigfucker tendencies by name-checking and emulating Steve Albini." www.allmusic.com...
	9:34am Hughie Considine: Morning, all! I gotta get organ-izized ....
	9:34am Philip: good morning Ira.
	9:35am clarke: RIP RC - did not know.
	9:35am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @9:34 u came to the right place!

	9:36am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @9:35 Mawnin', suh...
	9:36am Marie in Chicago: Hello, Ira, and All!
	9:37am clarke: David J's latest album (now a few years old) is pretty good.
	9:38am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @9:36 have sons risen?
	9:39am Chris in Kensington Bklyn: It's Mannday!
	9:39am clarke: shirtless!!
	9:39am common: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @9:36 watched "Targets" last eve. what an insane film!
	9:39am Edgar from Maine: Can Ira do the next Tuesday Music Trivia?
	9:40am Brendan: ↳ clarke @9:33 The New Orleans Pelicans king cake baby mascot was pretty scary looking.
	9:40am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @9:38 Oddly enough, one son has risen. It was quite a shock.
	9:40am HyperDose: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @9:36 Thanks for that trip to the Twilight Zone!
	9:40am clarke: ↳ Brendan @9:40 ugh.
	9:41am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @9:40 a half-sonny day!
	9:41am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ HyperDose @9:40 Anytime! Always fun to visit other Zones.
	9:42am tim: Hello Ira! Hello everyone! I'm a Herbie Mann fan! Anyone who wears a shirt less than Iggy is alright in my book! Memphis Underground is one of the best dollar binners of all time.
	9:42am clarke: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @9:41 hello Gregory!!!
	9:42am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ tim @9:42 Hey Tim! (Psst...check your email from last night)
	9:43am clarke: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @9:41 quite enjoyed your fill-in on sattaday
	9:43am Cal Zone!: I sang this Butwell song to my mother yesterday, as a tribute to her shovel!
	9:44am John L: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @9:36 Watched Bloody Mama last night for the first time. It's kind of a mess, but there were some great scenes and performances. Everyone mentions Shelley Winters and Robert DeNiro, of course, but the best performances were by Pat Hingle and Robert Walden. Tonight maybe Bucket Of Blood or The Trip. I have a whole Corman box set to choose from.
	9:44am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Roberto @9:32 Years ago a friend and I went to Rodger Cormans compound in Venice (an old lumber yard) to deliver a package (a bag of weed) to a friend who was working there. At the time, I worked on most of the major film lots in L.A. but going to Cormans studio was such a treat, as I grew up watching his trashy movies on late night T.V. in Los Angeles. The lumber yard in question was featured in Bucket of Blood where a bum selling newspapers and yelling 'Man gets his head cut off with a saw - read all about it!' is standing out front. Years later, here I was!
	9:44am clarke: c&w with drum machine.
	9:44am drr: ↳ Brendan @9:40 They killed off the Baby Cakess team, but I think the damn huge-headed mascot still makes appearances at Pelicans games and such. But maybe I dreamed that.
	9:44am Rachel Bo Bachel: Gotta watch out for those office romances
	9:45am clarke: ↳ drr @9:44 no - tis a living nightmare.
	9:45am chresti: Hi Ira and Ira-ites! Coffee stop before work
	9:45am Pedro in Arlington: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:28 They were the Scranton Wilkes-Barre Yankees 2007 - 2012, then became the Rail Riders. The trend is to get away from using the name of the MLB affiliate. Probably sells more merch. The names now tend to be "unique local industry/history" + "quirky animal." Not sure why Syracuse went with "Mets." And of course the greatest minor league baseball name in history was not for a team but an owner in the 1960s: The Richmond Virginians' Romeo Champagne.
	9:45am Roberto: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:44 Nice. You delivered weed, I delivered art.
	9:46am tim: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @9:42 10-4! I think I got an idea. Let me research if it actually works. I'll hit you up soon!
	9:47am Brendan: ↳ clarke @9:45 Amen. That thing was/is unsettling.
	9:47am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:44 wow, neat!
	9:48am Franco Twinkie: Hey Marie! I knew you'd like that one.
	9:48am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:23 ¡Franco! It's Woof Moo 24/7 over here! Good morning!
	9:48am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ clarke @9:43 Thanks! I'll be back on Saturday when Ira, Faye & I unite to form FILL-IN VOLTRON.
	9:49am Cal Zone!: Big Herbie Man fan here. Come join my group... www.facebook.com...
	9:49am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ tim @9:46 Sounds good. The audacity of Audacity is kicking my ass. I'm sure you saw yesterday that my friend suggested using my webcam. Except now I can't find it. So I'm on Staples right now looking up webcams & headsets.
	9:49am Barney Grubbs: ↳ Song: "Acapulco Rain" by "Herbie Mann" is sonny sharrock hiding in there somewhere?
	9:49am clarke: ↳ Brendan @9:47 a brutal reminder of no baseball here. btw, you do know that The Pelicans was the name of the minor league baseball team in nola in the 40s-50's
	9:49am chresti: Roberto - art and weed pair well together!
	9:50am Cal Zone!: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @9:48 Greg, I always enjoy your Fill-Ins! Caught part of your Saturday session!
	9:52am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:48 Yeah, it's great in so many ways. How perfect for him to have a lumber yard as his headquarters. Wonderful that he lived to be 98 (or something like that). Glad you never got into serious trouble (like, ur alive @)) ) from your delivery activities.
	9:53am Karl: Franco, don't ever change
	9:54am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Ira and Everyone.
	9:54am clarke: howdy!
	9:54am tim: ↳ Barney Grubbs @9:49 I don't think he was on that one. Larry Coryell maybe?
	9:55am clarke: ↳ Karl @9:53 is that a Kinks request?
	9:55am Handy Haversack: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @9:45 I thought there was a directive from MLB to stop using the MLB club names for the MILB teams?
	9:57am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:55 i'm not sure about that, but there definitely WAS in regard to the cape cod league, for some teams.
	9:57am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Marie in Chicago @9:52 I was just along for the ride. The grower was a friend of mine. Actually he was my boss. 'Our friend' was someone on our crew, so it was an inside job. I was NEVER a drug dealer.
	9:57am pmcWhenever: ever week one, two or a few mediated friends pass and word bubbles up… it’s great to hear stories of them… a mediated wake… thx Franco
	9:59am John L: ↳ Song: "The Sea" by "Wygalator" This is lovely. I used to see them play around my area quite a bit.
	9:59am Cal Zone!: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:55 Syracuse franchise was picked up by the Mets, they upgraded the park, bought them a new scoreboard, painted Mr. Mets logos everywhere and changed the name to Syracuse Mets in 2018 after having been the Sky Chiefs and Chiefs for many years.
	9:59am Brendan: ↳ clarke @9:49 Unfortunately, the high ups began cutting minor-league affiliates a few years back in a contraction process. Greed. Most minor-league affiliations are short term contracts with the major league teams. When the Nats won the World Series in 2019, their AAA affiliate was Fresno. Not very convenient for calling up a player on short notice in case of injury. So they would stash their guys in the AA team closer by.
	10:00am clarke: i think teams were 'encouraged' to find their own names. i like the name Sky Chiefs and wish i had a tshirt or cap from that. i DO have a Red Barons cap, somewhere.
	10:00am Roberto: ↳ Song: "Sueños" by "Plantamos" Sueños? Yo Los Tengo!
	10:00am Franco Twinkie: ↳ pmcWhenever @9:57 You're welcome. I was put on this Earth to entertain people.
	10:01am clarke: ↳ Brendan @9:59 agree, but i get the proximity thing, too.
	10:01am Andres: ↳ Song: "Sueños" by "Plantamos" Loving it. The spoken lyrics especially.
	10:02am Rachel Bo Bachel: This is so good
	10:03am clarke: ↳ Song: "Chords" by "Sportsguitar" bueno!
	10:04am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Song: "Chords" by "Sportsguitar" Yeah, I'm liking this.
	10:05am Brendan: ↳ Cal Zone! @9:59 The Mets purchased the Syracuse Chiefs, a couple of years before the Chiefs contract with the Nats expired, leaving the Nats having to grab a minor-league affiliate on the other side of the country. That's kind of the way of the league -musical chairs every four years.
	10:05am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:57 I see. Dealing weed always seemed risky to me. No bueno
	10:05am clarke: @Ira - i had never heard Pesos until a few weeks ago, thanks to you. a big miss in my collection. and now, Sportsguitar!!
	10:05am I'm with the banned: ↳ Song: "Sueños" by "Plantamos" Linda canción. Me gusta!
	10:06am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Marie in Chicago @10:05 Not in California.
	10:06am Marie in Chicago: ↳ clarke @10:00 I like the Sky Chiefs as a name. Made me think "Grass Masters" @). (not as good as Sky Chiefs...)
	10:07am clarke: ↳ Marie in Chicago @10:06 yeah, all this PC renaming, i cain't git on board with. but, i am old school.
	10:08am Noguayjose: hey Ira GREAT show! what was that dialogue from? hilarious!
	10:08am Cal Zone!: ↳ Brendan @10:05 Yes, I'm familiar with how this works...having watched the Roc Red Wings switch from the Cardinals>Twins>Nationals over the last several years. Mets made a play for Rochester, but they balked. I think they probably wanted to hold onto their identity...my local team does market themselves well!
	10:08am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:06 hm, interesting. Another Cali thang...
	10:08am toorushed: Loving chicken giblets!!
	10:09am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Bo's Bounce" by "Bo Diddley" YES YES YES!!!
	10:09am clarke: ↳ Song: "Bo's Bounce" by "Bo Diddley" drums: bo hisself!!
	10:09am Ira: Noguayjose, it was a brief excerpt from John & Faith Hubley's amazing movie The Hole, starring Dizzy Gillespie and George Mathews.
	10:10am Jason from Houston: Heyyyyy there.
	10:10am clarke: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:10 how's them tomatoes??
	10:11am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Ira @10:09 Currently streaming on Criterion!
	10:11am Matt in Carrboro: Did anyone else think Sueños sounded like Autumn Sweater? The keyboard chords and even the drumming.
	10:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ Good ☽Monday FMUvianz ~ Yay Ira
	10:13am Brendan: ↳ Song: "You Can't Judge a Book by the Cover" by "The Mugw... This cover is great, in my book.
	10:13am clarke: rev!
	10:13am Jason from Houston: ↳ clarke @10:10 Not too bad. Juliets are starting to turn now. Sooooooo many. Got a couple of large slicers (Champion 2) so far that were juicy and tasty. The stinkbugs are still going nuts. Morning and evening eradication duty.
	10:13am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:13 Hey you!!!
	10:14am clarke: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:13 that blast of early-august last week probably helped.
	10:14am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:13 Hey RR63
	10:15am weezycarneezy: You’re a diamond studied gold tooth Ira
	10:16am clarke: wasn't it Go Where You Wanna Go?
	10:17am Barney Grubbs: ↳ tim @9:54 I only recently learned that he was in Herbie Mann’s band, so every background guitar stutter had me wondering (and the surface noise probably helped too)
	10:17am Jason from Houston: ↳ clarke @10:14 You know it's true. So much rain here as well. Likely another round later today.
	10:18am Marie in Chicago: Hey, just thought of a good(?) name for a band or a variation of the Nuggets series--Boneless Nuggets
	10:18am clarke: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:17 is it raining there, this morn??
	10:18am DonJuanTijuana: ↳ Song: "Prince of Peace" by "Pharoah Sanders" Enjoying this entire show & love the Pharoah bells in the background
	10:18am Jason from Houston: ↳ clarke @10:18 Cloudy and humid. No rain.
	10:19am clarke: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:18 same here *nola
	10:19am Noguayjose: awesome thank you!
	10:19am ClayDavis: Sheeeeeeeeeeeeee
	10:20am Andres: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:13 I like having four seasons but would definitely love a homegrown tomato in May instead of waiting til August.
	10:20am clarke: Single File!!
	10:20am Dean: Meshuggah Genesis
	10:20am Hughie Considine: Saints!
	10:21am Phillippe: howdy
	10:21am clarke: line up, children!!
	10:21am clarke: gosh, the sound just jumps off the grooves, hear!!
	10:21am tim: ↳ Barney Grubbs @10:17 Isn't that an awesome discovery! I was floored when I first learned Sonny played on many Herbie Mann records.
	10:22am Philip: Love The Saints
	10:22am Karl: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:13 My tomato plants are less than a foot high still.
	10:23am Artie: ↳ Song: "Let's Pretend" by "The Saints" A lotta Lou Reed stylings in the vocal on this one.
	10:23am clarke: bailey's finest moment (of many)?
	10:23am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Let's Pretend" by "The Saints" Definitely pops more than the CD version I know and love.
	10:23am Zach in Ft Collins: Loving the set this morning, Ira! Curious if there's been any forward movement on getting a YLT song in GTA VI :)
	10:24am Rachel Bo Bachel: Thank you so much for filling in Ira! This Saints is so beautiful and jangly :) Everybody have a great day xo
	10:24am Ira: Jim Hendricks did not write a Mamas & Papas song. He wrote Johnny Rivers's Summer Rain.
	10:24am clarke: moon martin?
	10:24am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @10:20 Yesterday I read the story about Cal Berkely eliminating the anthropology library in The New York Times. So misguided, in my opinion.
	10:25am clarke: ↳ Ira @10:24 that is one killer tune. damn.
	10:25am clarke: ↳ Song: "Lucky Charms" by "Neptune's Car" beginning sounded like moon martin.
	10:26am Jason from Houston: ↳ Andres @10:20 For sure. I get plants in the ground the last week of February if not before. Zone 9b gardening... Phew.
	10:27am Dean: Yes, Anthro, but also a physics/stats (or some such) space, too. The spaces have been closed, but the collections and subject specialists remain. The materials are now integrated with the main library. The science move is arguably sensible, since most researchers work exclusively online. Anthro is a harder argument to make, but money trumps all.
	10:27am clarke: boyce/hart
	10:28am Jason from Houston: ↳ Karl @10:22 Just sent you a picture from last week. I feel like they are somehow taller now. LOL
	10:28am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Hooray for single file. & hooray for this show so far. What a great morning.
	10:28am tim: ↳ Song: "I Wanna Be Free" by "Vivian Reed" Whoa! Excellent version.
	10:28am Dusty in Denver: Enjoying the music and discussion.
	10:31am clarke: give the man a cigar!
	10:31am Barney Grubbs: ↳ tim @10:21 It's great to hear him fitting his style in with a straighter outfit (and great that Herbie Mann had him in the group for so long).
	10:31am clarke: and a guitar.
	10:31am clarke: great strings!
	10:32am Son Of Pantz: What a cad, Willie!
	10:34am Dennis Diken: great show, Sir K! heartwarming to hear Willie Restum, he was a dear friend. His book “They All Came To See Me” - highly recommend!
	10:34am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Song: "Ape Man" by "Aaron Neville" This is a Bad Animals song.
	10:35am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Ape Man" by "Aaron Neville" Not to be confused with Tobor the Eighth Man.
	10:35am Ira: Dennis, I'm in awe! Gotta get a copy of that book.
	10:36am Andres: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:26 We are in Zone 5 here, especially when Greg is on the air. ;) A or B depending who you ask. The berry canes are coming along so all is well.
	10:37am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @10:27 Of course it does. But anthropology is non-negotiable. It tells us about where we came from, and hopefully helps us navigate where we might be going. As someone who once slept on the street in Berkeley, I find this a foreboding sign about that city and where it might be headed.
	10:40am clarke: ↳ Ira @10:35 i'm hardly ever conscious at this hour, either.
	10:40am newton: Always happy when Essential Logic gets into the mix!
	10:40am Cheryl The Nerd: I think I'm one step closer to becoming a dj. I just bought a webcam, a headset, and a Yeti mic.
	10:41am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you, Ira and Everyone. I must go. The GAs are holding an "rx scabin Appreciation Day" whatever that is.
	10:41am Jason from Houston: ↳ Andres @10:36 Hahaha! I have one Dewberry patch that I either cut all the way back or let go depending on the year.
	10:41am Dean: Not the city, but the University, two distinct entities, often in competition, e.g., for space. The move is part of a larger, even global effort to reduce access to "soft" disciplines, like the humanities and social sciences.
	10:42am Son Of Pantz: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @10:40 Or at least start a podcast. Lord knows we need more!
	10:42am clarke: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @10:41 that's every day right?
	10:42am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Pompton Turnpike" by "Tiny Bradshaw and His Orche... Swingin'--bobbity loo bop!
	10:42am Marie in Chicago: Swingin'--bobbity loo bop!
	10:43am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Son Of Pantz @10:42 Nah, I'm trying to do a drop-in. Been trying to do it since before Christmas (ask Tim). But I keep getting foiled by technology.
	10:44am clarke: so.. you don't need that cam!!
	10:44am rx "rexy" scabin: @clarke I wish.
	10:45am clarke: mose!
	10:45am Artie: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @10:43 Bring it on, Cheryl!!
	10:45am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ clarke @10:44 I might if the cam has a built in mic and I need to record a mic break. That's what was tripping me up last night.
	10:45am βrian: I recall when Michigan eliminated Geography. Turned out they never imagined the how the field of geographic data would change the world.
	10:45am Michele with One "L": Great show Ira!
	10:46am Artie: ↳ βrian @10:45 See how that worked out for them? Lost a whole peninsula across the waters. Hah!
	10:46am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ alanSixº @9:34 gmornin hoodlum, everything OK?
	10:47am tim: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @10:40 Woohoo! My microphone literally fell apart when I was trying to record the Drop In I was suppposed to do in a couple weeks. I took it as a sign to bow out this time around - hahaha!
	10:47am βrian: ↳ Artie @10:46 And you can't just go lopping off somebody's peninsula.
	10:48am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ tim @10:47 It might be too late for me. But I figure if I can get this figured out, I'll be ready for the next opportunity.
	10:48am tim: ↳ βrian @10:45 Well, there's Detroit, West Michigan, Up North, Macinac Island and the U.P. What else is there to know?
	10:48am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @10:41 Good point. The fracas about annexing Peoples Park for student housing is a gordian knot I have very little constructive to say about. Except this: The tribal nature of street culture in Berkeley might be a worthy study for a future anthropologist.
	10:48am Artie: ↳ βrian @10:47 Sometimes they do just float away tho...
	10:48am sgillies: ↳ Song: "My Baby Loves Lovin'" by "Hyla Parker" Taking care of everything!
	10:50am clarke: quite the array of 45's.
	10:51am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:48 I've got a friend working at Berkeley right now--physics department
	10:51am tim: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @10:48 Maybe bring up the question you emailed yesterday to the braintrust here. There must be a way to convert the voice recording file to something Audacity will accept.
	10:51am Franco Twinkie: Do you visit?
	10:51am clarke: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @10:51 what do you mean you 'have' him working - for you? ha ha ha. nyyc!
	10:52am Dean: Agreed re: Peoples Park. Too many variables at play for my feeble mind. Berkeley has had some celebrity anthropologists over the years. Whenever I meet Cal-trained anthropologists--I have met at least two--I bring up their names. Alan Dundes, for example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Dundes Buddy of mine teaches anthro-like courses at a local CSU, most recently a course on gaming culture. He's also done a course on subcultures, e.g., the SF punk scene.
	10:52am Sarf: Hi Ira, Hi surface noiseniks! Love the show :)
	10:52am Chief Guy: Franco has a good point about anthropology. Many Berkeley Peoples Park residents are re-developing tails.
	10:53am Dean: A professor or other kind of researcher, Cheryl The Nerd?
	10:53am Franco Twinkie: ↳ clarke @10:51 She did not say 'have.'
	10:53am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ clarke @10:51 I meant that I have a friend--I know, hard to believe I have friends, right?
	10:54am clarke: ↳ tim @10:51 i stopped using Audacity a long time ago - but there used to be a conversion thingie.
	10:54am clarke: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @10:53 you got people workin all over for ya!!
	10:54am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Dean @10:53 I think she's a researcher. I know she doesn't have teaching responsibilities--she says she doesn't have the patience to teach. I know she's working on a 9-year photon project. Don't ask me what a photon project is, I have no idea.
	10:56am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ tim @10:51 Good idea in theory. The problem is all my Audacity stuff is on my home computer, and I'm at work where my stuff is not.
	10:56am clarke: ↳ Song: "I Need You More Than Ever" by "The Montclairs" from Montclair?
	10:56am clarke: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @10:56 put them on a zip file??
	10:56am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Song: "I Need You More Than Ever" by "The Montclairs" I hope A6D is paying attention right now...
	10:57am Artie: ↳ clarke @10:54 Foobar2000 (also free to use) has a rich set of conversion plug-ins. And VLc is quite the Swiss Army Knife of audio utility, if you can figure out how to perform a particular task.
	10:57am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ clarke @10:56 Why would I do that?
	10:57am clarke: uh, so you can bring the files to work?
	10:59am DonJuanTijuana: ↳ Song: "Attica Massacre" by "Willie & West" This is HEAVY!
	10:59am Noir Lover: ↳ Song: "Attica Massacre" by "Willie & West" Singing for his life
	10:59am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ clarke @10:57 I can't upload stuff like this onto my work computer. That's a no-no.
	10:59am clarke: ah.
	11:00am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "I Say a Little Prayer for You" by "Wes Montgomery" Glorious.
	11:00am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "I Say a Little Prayer for You" by "Wes Montgomery" Wes was all thumbs in the best possible way.
	11:01am Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Song: "I Say a Little Prayer for You" by "Wes Montgomery" It's quite often that I turn on the radio right when someone is playing a Burt Bacharach song. There must be a "BB" signal in the sky that I'm unconsciously aware of.
	11:01am Dean: What's a photon project? Heh, just kidding. So, perhaps a post-doc, fellow, somebody funded by a grant... If she visits the law library, have her ask for me. But I doubt she ever has a reason to swing by the law library. We're across a quad from the former Anthropology Library!
	11:03am clarke: nice Files. case closed.
	11:03am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Dean @11:01 Probably something like that. I don't really know what she does, my feeble brain doesn't understand it. I just know she's got a PhD in physics and she takes songwriting workshops for fun.
	11:05am Wendy del Formaggio: I know you know this, Ira, but Naomi Neville is one of Allen Toussaint's nommes de plume.
	11:05am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @11:01 So, could you see the trucks pull up and haul off all the books from the Anthropology Library from your office window?
	11:06am Dean: btw, the Anthro building has a stairwell with acoustics that'll put the fear of gosh in you. I keep meaning to bring my recorder to campus to test the decay. My office, Franco, is 20 ft. underground: no windows.
	11:06am clarke: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @11:05 natch.
	11:07am Handy Haversack: Single File got me through a cat-vomit incident, bed stripping, lots of cleaning, an urgent puppy in the middle of it all, loading the washer, and a shower and shave. So that's pretty good! Thanks, Ira.
	11:07am DonJuanTijuana: Looks like Saturday will be a banger too!
	11:07am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Lenny's evening at Monty Hall was so good. So happy to have been there.
	11:07am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:07 You do more before 12noon than most of us can do in a weekend!
	11:08am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:07 Single File of Doom right there. Sorry that happened.
	11:08am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:07 things are swingin' in the kingdom!
	11:08am Cheryl The Nerd: Speaking of Monty Hall events, anyone hitting the sale on Saturday?
	11:08am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @11:05 That's right! Naomi Neville wrote Pie Crust, if not a favorite song - a favorite subject!
	11:09am queems: thanks to gary cohen for literally everything
	11:10am Noir Lover: Mike Breen and Clyde Frasier would like to have a word.
	11:10am Dean: Naomi is one of my favorite brief palindromes.
	11:10am Jeff Golick: The elevated nature of GaryKeithRon only more evident when the Mets are on ESPN, as they were this weekend.
	11:10am Ira: Yup, Handy, it felt like a long segment, and you just proved it.
	11:11am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Morning all! Long day ahead, need to stack my hours -- tix for Echo and the Bunnymen Friday!
	11:12am Handy Haversack: ↳ Ira @11:10 Sometimes, we need extra help!
	11:12am clarke: To Tell The Truth
	11:12am Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:08 Mmm... pie crust...
	11:13am clarke: that's a ukelele
	11:13am Ira: Noir Lover, I love Clyde, but I stand by my assessment.
	11:14am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @11:12 I made the first mulberry pie of the season last Friday... ... I shall eat the remaining slice shortly.
	11:14am Ira: Jeff, agree wholeheartedly. That discussion of bat speed was brutal.
	11:15am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Candy Apple Red" by "Bonnie Guitar" Wow, I love how that To Tell the Truth clip drifted into this, which I've never heard before.
	11:16am Brendan in Carrboro: Ira, thoughts on Christian Scott’s pitching so far?
	11:16am Dan S: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @11:08 I might go. I probably won't get there until about 3 PM. How about you? Want to say hello if we're there at the same time? The thing is, I'm practically out of room for any more CDs in my modest-sized apt.
	11:16am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Candy Apple Red" by "Bonnie Guitar" faved this on sheilab's show 3 years ago...
	11:16am Handy Haversack: I have to say, Yankee radio broadcasts have lost much of their charm without Sterling. He was terrible, just terrible. But he was ours. And he was always very much himself. It's less vibrant without him, if more technically accurate. (Your playing, while technically proficient, lacks passion!)
	11:16am Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:14 Oh nice! My mulberry tree right outside my south-facing bedroom windows was pruned this winter. She gives an immense amount of fruit, but she's so tall I can only reach some of them. They bring the birds, though, so I like it. I learned recently that about a century ago, Bellows Falls had a silk/worm industry. Likely why I have this tree.
	11:18am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Dan S @11:16 I'm planning to get there right when the doors open. How long I stay depends on how many CDs they have for us to pick through. I suspect it's going to be the leftovers from the April sale, which means it won't take long. So who knows? Look for an exhausted middle aged lady with a purple backpack.
	11:18am Pedro in Arlington: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:16 You just can't predict baseball broadcasting, Handy.
	11:19am Andres: ↳ Song: "Jeserene" by "Desmond Dekker" Waking me up more effectively than my mug of tea!
	11:20am clarke: ↳ Song: "The Old Casino" by "John Davis & Dennis Callaci" john davis from Superdrag????
	11:20am tim: ↳ Song: "Jeserene" by "Desmond Dekker" That was just about the best!
	11:21am Dean: Casino... I was in Las Vegas yesterday, only the airport, on a brief layover. My 13yo daughter saw it for the first time. As we deplaned, she remarked on the plethora of gambling games in the airport, "Already!" Last time I was in LV was many years ago, another layover. Last time I set foot in LV outside the airport was 1976, a Yes concert, when I was 17.
	11:21am Handy Haversack: ↳ tim @11:20 Desmond Dekker so good!
	11:21am Handy Haversack: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:18 It's not like football, you know.
	11:21am drr: ↳ clarke @11:20 Folk Implosion John Davis.
	11:22am bo: This isn’t Simon Joyner??!!
	11:22am clarke: ↳ drr @11:21 ah, my old neighbor.
	11:22am Dan S: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @11:18 OK, if I go I'll look for someone meeting that description:) If I don't go or don't see you, enjoy and good hunting!
	11:23am Handy Haversack: ↳ Dean @11:21 One of the most depressing sights I have seen was the smoking area (I won't call it a "lounge") in the Reno airport. A glassed cube, completely obscured with brown-gray fog, with the lights of slots winking in the depths of the murk. Oh, I went in.
	11:23am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Dan S @11:22 You too!
	11:23am clarke: ↳ drr @11:21 hey - how was Echo and the bunnymen the other night??
	11:24am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Wendy del Formaggio @11:16 I had the same problem two years ago. The idiot tree trimmers cut off the veil, but neglected to get the points out of the powerlines. Fortunately, mulberry trees regenerate quickly. Anyway, as the old saying goes - new wood bears fruit. This year the veil is back, and dropping fruit like a motherfucker!
	11:24am Dean: Those smoking areas seem positively carceral. At this very moment, my 18yo son is en route on a flight from LV straddling the Nevada/California border, due to arrive in a few minutes. I'm heading to OAK to grab him.
	11:25am Franco Twinkie: Later, Dean!
	11:25am Roberto: ↳ Dean @11:24 Grab dat boi!
	11:25am Yes: lovely sounds, Ira
	11:25am Karl: No smokers in there, just slot machines on fire, again.
	11:26am Dennis Diken: ↳ Ira @10:35 Willie was an old time hipster/entertainer and a beautiful cat. what stories he had - he played the opening of the Cal-Neva Lodge! The Smithereens hired him as a greeter (bari sax around his neck) at a record release bash at Barney's Beanery in the early 90s. to quote one of his fab 45s, may he "Restum In Peace"!
	11:26am Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:24 Yeah, this tree always drops berries like a motherfucker, too. It's healthy and happy. My tree guys did a great job. When I have my first mulberry in a month or two, I'll think of you.
	11:26am Hoboken Jack: Hello all! Talking to text and listening in the car while on the way from Maryland to Rehoboth to have lunch with Mr Fallon.
	11:26am clarke: ↳ Dennis Diken @11:26 mmm... Barney's chili!!
	11:27am clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:26 jaack - steve fallon?? say hey!
	11:28am Handy Haversack: ↳ Karl @11:25 It's gotta be so DUE!
	11:28am Hoboken Jack: ↳ clarke @11:27 Will do!
	11:28am tim: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:26 Hey Jack!
	11:28am Dennis Diken: ↳ clarke @11:26 I typically went for their pickleburger (pickles cooked into the beef)
	11:28am drr: As you predicted, the singer wasn't really up to the task. He also kept us waiting for half an hour while somebody went to fetch him a milkshake. Band was good. I was surprised and interested that much of the crowd dressed like they were going to a symphony gala. There was a heckler behind me who decided to sing "The Killing Moon" because Ian M. was doing a pretty bad job of it (though better than this guy). I turned around to see who this noisome fellow was. He looked like he came from work at the law fim, defending a platinum mining concern against environmentalists.
	11:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Spoon's Caress" by "Joe Beck" ...gittar had me thinking BuffaloSpingfield arf a mo...
	11:29am clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:28 tell him i say thanks for a haven oasis for touring folks!
	11:29am Wendy del Formaggio: ↳ Dennis Diken @11:28 Say whaaat?! That sounds delicious. Also, hi Dennis!
	11:30am Ira: Dennis, in 1995, Yo La Tengo played two weeks on the Lollapalooza side stage. We played a Willie Restum record each afternoon while we set up. "Here we go!" among more obvious pleasure, conjures up those crazy couple of weeks.
	11:30am clarke: ↳ drr @11:28 damn!
	11:31am clarke: ↳ Ira @11:30 damn!
	11:31am Karl: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 Handy, you know, we need to start a writing/art zine named Slot Machines on Fire. Get Jason from Houston to mimeograph it. Get you writing again. Get me writing again. If a few slot machines have to meet their fiery end, well, so be it.
	11:32am Yes: ↳ Song: "Slow Jibon Re" by "Immy & the Mahoots" :)
	11:32am Handy Haversack: ↳ Karl @11:31 They knew the risks. Or they should've!
	11:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...sometimes fiddling with filters or presses & dumping grounds what have you makes me think being a caffeine addict is as bad as smoking ...but just for a minute...
	11:33am Roberto: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:33 Nothing is as bad as smoking, as far as second-hand effects go.
	11:34am Brian in UK: Ira, nice to 'see' you & all the Monday folks.
	11:34am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Karl @11:31 I have a doozy of a Las Vegas gambling at the airport story....
	11:34am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @11:33 I suppose a second-hand effect of a caffeine addiction might be spilling your coffee on someone's fancy sweater.
	11:34am Karl: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:34 To Saturday night and the Marty Party Line!
	11:34am Handy Haversack: ↳ Roberto @11:33 Well, war. And beef eating sure ain't good for others' future prospects!
	11:34am Dan S: ↳ Song: "Slow Jibon Re" by "Immy & the Mahoots" A Mahout is an elephant driver/keeper in India. This group spells it a bit differently. The same thing?
	11:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Roberto @11:33 Point taken but have you been in my orbit when truly caffed. Yerknow ...whut would you like to talk about. No seriously anything...
	11:35am chresti: I was told that I liked to eat cigarette butts when I was a toddler.
	11:35am drr: ↳ Dan S @11:34 I learned that word from reading the lyrics to Joan Armatrading's "Drop The Pilot".
	11:36am tim: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:34 Does it end with you either winning and/or flying an airplane?
	11:36am Marie in Chicago: Hey, lovin' the set
	11:36am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Karl @11:34 Of course! My first responsibility, but as a written text...
	11:36am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ tim @11:36 Maybe he won an airplane.
	11:36am Roberto: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:34 Hmm second-hand bullshit v second-hand smoke...I'll get back to you on that one.
	11:36am Hoboken Jack: ↳ Dennis Diken @11:28 Dennis! We have to get chatzky out for NJ pizza.
	11:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...we in cahoots with the Mahouts to caffeinate the oliphants...
	11:37am chresti: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:37 In caffoots
	11:38am Dan S: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:37 Is that a haiku? I like it, in any case.
	11:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Roberto @11:36 ...perhaps even smoke could be an effective defense against nonconsensual compulsive communications...
	11:38am Noir Lover: Opening for Neil Young, the east village's own Reverend Billy and the Stop Shopping Choir
	11:38am Franco Twinkie: ↳ tim @11:36 No, but it will make you piss your pants laughing when you're not holding your breath in fear.
	11:38am yerfriendpaul: Enjoying the show, Ira!
	11:40am HyperDose: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:36 The one thing about NJ I miss is the pizza
	11:40am chresti: ↳ Song: "The Man With the Cigar" by "Lou Courtney" Darnit I missed single file!
	11:40am Handy Haversack: I'll be at the Myriam Gendron show. Anyone else?
	11:40am bo: I like your Jimmy Goodman patter, Ira
	11:42am tim: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:38 That sounds even better!
	11:43am Franco Twinkie: I've been holding on to this one.
	11:43am tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:40 Damn! I wish I could be there for that show! Will Marissa Anderson and Jim White playing with her?
	11:43am 12539: Thanks, Ira!
	11:44am chresti: Cletus is now on my list for future cat names!
	11:44am Andres: ↳ Ira @11:30 Your mention had me look back at the lineups for the years I attended (was away in ‘95). I was left reeling by the ton of bands I missed due to not being familiar with them at the time and not being able to be three or four places at once.
	11:44am Roberto: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:38 It would certainly work for anyone trying to avoid interacting with me.
	11:44am northguineahills: ↳ Noir Lover @11:38 woah, love reverend billy!
	11:44am yerfriendpaul: I was in the car when Ira praised Gary Cohen’s talents as Met’s announcer. I’m in full agreement! I grew up a Sox fan and loved the chemistry Jerry Remy and Don Orsillo had. I think Gary has a great chemistry with Ron and Keith. Makes watching the games so much more enjoyable
	11:46am Scott Williams: ↳ tim @11:43 Hi Tim - yep, Jim & Marisa join Myriam at LPR and on my show. Thanks for the plug, Ira!
	11:47am Handy Haversack: ↳ tim @11:43 And they are on several tracks on the new album. Diligently noted in the Discogs listing by your friendly neighborhood Handy Haversack.
	11:47am Andres: Mary Poppins! Love this ending!
	11:48am northguineahills: now this is fun sun ra!
	11:48am Dan S: Thanks for the show, Ira! I enjoyed the part of it I heard. Yes, I'm awed by "the amazing percentage of records that are picked on his show as hits and eventually go on to become the nation's best selling records," as your profile puts it.
	11:48am chresti: ↳ Song: "Let's Go Fly a Kite" by "Sun Ra" This is pretty true to the original
	11:49am clarke: thnx ira yassss
	11:50am Chris in Kensington Bklyn: Summer Thunder at Union Pool looks really awesome this year. Guerilla Toss, Rosali, Joe Bataan and many more.
	11:51am Gregosaurus: ↳ Song: "Let's Go Fly a Kite" by "Sun Ra" Ever notice nobody ever tells you to "go fly a kite" anymore?
	11:51am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Let's Go Fly a Kite" by "Sun Ra" Just glorious.

	11:53am Ochre Ogre: Thanks Ira!
	11:54am Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Crownless Gander @11:52 Our preteen has discovered musical theater and a profound love for Julie Andrews, it's been on heavy rotation. Never gets old!

	11:54am chresti: Thanks Ira!
	11:54am Cheryl The Nerd: ↳ Dan S @11:53 I'm holding out for karaoke at Monty Hall! I've heard it's been done before...

	11:55am Greg from ZONE 5: Great stuff Ira! See ya Saturday.
	11:55am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Psychedelic Afternoon" by "Ryuchi Sakamoto" He wrote this with David Byrne? Or it was a Byrne original?

	11:57am Ira: Listener Bryan, David Byrne wrote the lyrics. Arto Lindsay sings on it too.
	11:57am Hughie Considine: This was another wonderful excursion. I doff my chapeau to the DJ.
	11:57am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Ira @11:57 thx! i can see that they've done a few versions of it over time.
	11:57am tadpoles: Thanks Ira...great morning. Cheers
	11:57am Andres: Great stuff! Thanks, Ira!
	11:57am Dennis Diken: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:36 I'm in agreement!
	11:57am Dan S: ↳ Cheryl The Nerd @11:54 That would be fun! Perhaps a combination of karaoke and kite-flying. That would be a first, I'll bet :)
