	♥ 9:29am HyperDose: ↳ Stinky @9:27 I cackled :)
	🎸 ♥ 9:29am Charles in Chicago: ↳ markinbrooklyn @9:27 90s? It's older than that. "OED's earliest evidence for spooning is from 1872, in the writing of Charles Lever, novelist." (OED.com)
	9:29am TerrDE: Jelly Roll. Thin cake , spread w jelly, rolled up. Poor folks dessert. Apparently nothing to do w acts illegal in Texas and Georgia despite the old Blues tunes

	🎸 ♥ 9:30am Charles in Chicago: ↳ No Big Thing in Chicago @9:28 Y'know I'm sort of interested in Colin Newman but I don't really dig Suss at all so I'm divided...

	9:31am florida: never worked on a griffin
	🎸 ♥ 9:31am No Big Thing in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:30 I'm pretty curious about the collaborative set. I guess there's a record on the way.
	🎸 ♥ 9:32am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:30 I used to be a huge Wire fan and I liked some of Newman's solo stuff but everything from the last 10 years or so has left me pretty cold. I don't know, my tastes have changed I guess. Not into that grim/bleak outlook any more. I need music that lifts me up.
	🎸 ♥ 9:32am GorillaFella: Last show was a fun one, would absolutely love to see Shannon get her own show! Maybe JA and Clay could be regulars on her program?
	9:33am florida: poor choice of words never wrenched on a griffin
	♥ 9:33am Joey C says: Greetings all. That’s all.
	🎸 ♥ 9:34am Charles in Chicago: I've been paring down my record collection and I actually let go of all my Wire, except for Pink Flag. And I'm not sure if I'll listen to that one again, but the cover is so iconic.
	🎸 ♥ 9:34am Karl: "At least you guys are living the dream"
	9:35am Greg from ZONE 5: “You guys looked like you were really having fun up there.”
	🎸 ♥ 9:35am No Big Thing in Chicago: ↳ No Big Thing in Chicago @9:31 I get that! I have to admit to being pretty unfamiliar with recent Colin Newman output. I'm always impressed by making hard decisions when it comes to a collection!
	🎸 ♥ 9:35am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: The trifecta synergy was incredible 🔺🔺🔺
	♥ 9:35am Squidocto: My fave nompliment: “You were really on that stage”
	🎸 ♥ 9:35am GorillaFella: ↳ red_door_what_for in ypsilanti @9:28 Agreed! Very cool to see JA on the strings, kept thinking about how different all the tunes he had to learn for it were and how he played each one with so much feeling!
	9:35am McS: Who are they talking about?
	9:35am rx "rexy" scabin: "Our radio program"
	♥ 9:36am ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore): ↳ Squidocto @9:35 I've always loved, "That was one of the songs of all time!"
	🎸 ♥ 9:36am Mike H: Respectfully, an appearance on this program is excellent field experience for a therapist
	🎸 ♥ 9:37am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: Insecurities flying but hey, building a case to bring Shannon back eheheh Honestly you are all great ✨✨✨
	🎸 ♥ 9:37am Charles in Chicago: ↳ No Big Thing in Chicago @9:35 Oh, I meant the more recent Wire records, since Gilbert left the band. Staring with "Change Becomes Us". I don't know if Newman has dropped a solo disc in a while.
	9:38am honest Bernardo from Argentina: You guys are losing me today who’s Shannon? What did I miss
	9:38am Pogo Eddie: Shannon is a therapist who was a guest on JA's show with Clay last Friday. She was very funny and insightful - that's what the lads are discussing this morning.
	♥ 9:38am Woo: Now we must hear this Shannon they speak of.
	9:38am McS: ↳ Pogo Eddie @9:38 Thanks Pogo!

	9:39am Jim Q: Clay is right - the three of them together works very well.
	♥ 9:39am J-W: currently playing som Jazz in the background.. you never know these days..
	9:40am Henry Gross: Shannon has gone away
	🎸 ♥ 9:40am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: You humanize all of us with your candidness 📻🎶💖
	9:40am Lana in Bucks County: It was great radio last week, and today too!
	♥ 9:40am TDK60: Fabio is going skiing?
	9:41am Fredericks: Shannon is gone I guess...

	9:41am Fredericks: ↳ Henry Gross @9:40 Didn't mean to step on your toes.
	9:42am Fredericks: ↳ honest Bernardo from Argentina @9:38 A dog that got lost a sea.
	🎸 ♥ 9:42am PaulRobeson1925: More cynical about the human race! You mean the system…Human beings are born into innate goodness. We are always participating in something larger than our selves @Clay www.agjohnson.us...
	♥ 9:43am J-W: ↳ Fredericks @9:41 She might be able to do a fillin when covid strikes again.
	9:43am Philip: hahahahahahaha good song title, "wuss mountain"
	9:43am hendrix wolfbat: Clay you’re the voice that wakes up the world and makes everyone smile. I don’t know if you’re digging or just cause you’ve been sick but give it up man you’re great whatever you’re sure Cummings are. You’re one of the good ones big love from Atlanta.
	9:43am Henry Gross: Its, ok. I'm not real. Now plug me into something
	🎸 ♥ 9:43am Charles in Chicago: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @9:42 humans are neither innately good nor bad, but have a capacity for both. that's human nature.
	🎸 ♥ 9:43am chris_in_space: What's the deal with @JA's "good coffee"? It's a sample, right? It's uncanny.
	9:43am Fredericks: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:34 Listen to it.
	🎸 ♥ 9:44am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: That's how I am with rollercoasters. Sometimes I can't work up the nerve!
	9:44am hendrix wolfbat: Lol that AutoCorrect fail will be on the list. Shortcomings is what I was trying to say your shortcomings whatever they are you’re working on them and etc..
	♥ 9:44am Tooth: I wish I were going skiing in Colorado. That’s the life.
	🎸 ♥ 9:44am PaulRobeson1925: Clay was picked up by a nice young man
	🎸 ♥ 9:45am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Fredericks @9:43 Man, I know that record by heart, I can play it in my head :-)
	9:45am Cyn: Pidge, you’re spiraling. It is post-COVID healing. Go home. We cringe
	🎸 ♥ 9:45am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ hendrix wolfbat @9:44 Haha! I get what you're saying anyways that's very nice ✨
	9:46am Fredericks: ↳ J-W @9:43 If she turns her boat around.
	9:46am William S, Founder of the Home for Wayward Boys: No Charles, Man is a Bad Animal
	♥ 9:47am Corey: "I'm glad we tamed you enough to give you a morning show" almost made me spit out my coffee.
	🎸 ♥ 9:47am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:43 I disagree wholeheartedly. We are, the world over, born innately good. You can observe this clearly in very young children
	🎸 ♥ 9:48am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: Man that's what I went thru when I got COVID literally this exact week in 2020. It was an inner trip 🌀 except substitute books for "Whose Line Is It Anyway" reruns :~P
	🎸 ♥ 9:49am Charles in Chicago: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @9:47 children can be little monsters, but i don't want to argue, it's OK to disagree
	🎸 ♥ 9:49am GorillaFella: Really admire the bravery that goes into speaking this honestly on the air. Totally agree with what Red Door said earlier, this kind of talk is very humanizing :)
	🎸 ♥ 9:49am PaulRobeson1925: Our nature is goodness. That is why the search for meaning returns again and again to the good life. The eternal good. What is the good life and how do I lead it?
	♥ 9:49am HyperDose: so much below the surface. love it!
	9:49am Fredericks: Sargent Slauter and little Clay.

	♥ 9:51am ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore): ↳ rob @9:51 RIVETED, even!
	🎸 ♥ 9:51am chris_in_space: What we really need is a forum for radio show hosts. We could talk about our "on-air personas" and how they plague us off-air.

	🎸 ♥ 9:55am PaulRobeson1925: 25 years is a long time to hold it in

	🎸 ♥ 9:56am Charles in Chicago: ↳ No Big Thing in Chicago @9:56 Perhaps so, it's been a long time for me too.

He came and picked us up at the hotel, and we took the subway down to Chinatown, where we found a suitable restaurant. I tried desperately to think of something to say. We had to have something in common, we were about the same age, did the same thing for a living, wrote novels, though his were of considerably higher quality than mine. But no, I couldn’t come up with a single topic of conversation."

Knausgaard wanted to draw a distinction between Scandinavians and Americans when it comes to small talk. In fact, the reason we couldn’t talk to each other had less to do with cultural differences than with the fact that we are both nervous people with self-esteem problems who were uncomfortable in each other’s presence. That didn’t fit into Knausgaard’s argument at that point in the article, however; and so, like any professional writer, he used the part of the story that served his need."

	🎸 ♥ 10:39am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ Karl @10:34 Lmao now I'm stuck looking up John Tesh I know he was name dropped in some goofy internet song and now I'm grappling
	10:39am LiXiviated Life: Richard Feynman interview once in which he said that just because you know the name of a thing dosent mean you know the thing. (Not a quote but that’s the gist)
	♥ 10:39am Tooth: I adore Mel Tormé and I don’t care who knows it!
	10:39am Fredericks: Only took two weeks to get some Jazz out of John.

	10:41am Jim Q: Taciturn mandrill, yarn mallets.
	🎸 ♥ 10:41am Lana in Bucks County: ↳ Lana in Bucks County @10:40 ..or when he turned the music up really loud over Clay earlier? Maybe just passive-aggressive foreplay ;)
	♥ 10:41am StringOFperils: Copasetic vibes, man
	♥ 10:42am ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore): ↳ Jim Q @10:41 Wasn't that a Limp Bizkit album title?
	🎸 ♥ 10:43am Lana in Bucks County: Clay liked your featured artist who began as a vibraphone player, who was it?
	10:43am TerrDE: I like going to Curtis website and listening to all the Marimba graduation performances
	🎸 ♥ 10:43am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: I like to imagine some oldhead driving in their car going "What happened to the jazz Friday mornings? Well these fellas are starting to grow on me anyhow" 😂 I like that we get both today though 🎶🎸 No matter how it goes it doesn't disappoint
	🎸 ♥ 10:44am GorillaFella: ↳ Song: ">>>" by "bobby hutcherson" Love this kind of vibe! Reminds me of Tantric Bile and John Zorn
	♥ 10:44am Tooth: ↳ Song: ">>>" by "bobby hutcherson" This is the shizzle!
	🎸 ♥ 10:44am honest Bernardo in Argentina: ↳ Lana in Bucks County @10:30 When was this? I guess I missed a TOPT call in…
	10:45am Fredericks: ↳ GorillaFella @10:30 Not off hand. May have been the one about a body flying through a windshield. At least from the album with that song. I'd need to dig through my cassettes to find it.
	10:45am Andres: ↳ TerrDE @10:41 I maybe remember that. Sesame Street or The Muppet Show? My search is not yielding results.
	🎸 ♥ 10:45am Rednex: ↳ Lana in Bucks County @10:43 Roy Ayers
	🎸 ♥ 10:45am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ GorillaFella @10:44 I'm imagining your keyboard Gorilla playing along hahahha

	🎸 ♥ 10:49am Lana in Bucks County: I need a new portable cassette player to play my tapes. One that has decent bass and full sound, <$200. Anybody have any suggestions of brand, model?
	🎸 ♥ 10:49am Lana in Bucks County: wow quite a wall of sound there

	🎸 ♥ 10:51am honest Bernardo in Argentina: ↳ Fredericks @10:47 Ya I let him live - when John teshs simpsons theme came on I thought it actually wasn’t that bad
	🎸 ♥ 10:52am GorillaFella: ↳ Fredericks @10:45 Shredded Humans off their first album, Eaten Back to Life- some great riffs on that one! Skull Full of Maggots off that same album was the song that got me into metal haha extremely foundational music for me. I tend to prefer the Corpsegrinder era albums over the Barnes ones but that first record is has a special place in my heart
	🎸 ♥ 10:53am honest Bernardo in Argentina: Oh damn I went back into the archives and heard TOPT quit on air. Now I’m sad. 😢
	10:53am Fredericks: ↳ Song: ">>>" by "bobby hutcherson" Trumpeter is on fire.
	♥ 10:54am Mister Dobalina: ↳ honest Bernardo in Argentina @10:53 Wait, what?!?! When did this happen. First he breaks up with Clay & then this?
	🎸 ♥ 10:55am Lana in Bucks County: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @10:50 thanks, I'll look into them
	♥ 10:56am TDK60: ↳ Song: "heart & center" by "michael gregory jackson" I heard this bass as really interesting, looked it up and it's not bass but a cellist, Abdul Wadud.
	10:56am Cosmic: I just tried to sign the petition against the closing of the education department, but I don’t have a US zip code. Can someone please sign it for me??? https://sign.moveon.org/petitions/block-donald-trump-s-attempts-to-abolish-the-department-of-education?source=unb&after_action=ssd3
	10:57am Philip: Dig this groove. excellent
	🎸 ♥ 10:57am honest Bernardo in Argentina: ↳ Mister Dobalina @10:54 Sorry nonono I am taking about his quitting the Pidge call ins - which doesn’t make sense to me. I’ll miss it.
	🎸 ♥ 10:58am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ Cosmic @10:56 Hey Cosmic! Thank you for sharing. Things are nuts lately
	♥ 10:59am Mister Dobalina: ↳ honest Bernardo in Argentina @10:57 Phewww, false alarm. Guess TOPT had enough of the Pigeonization. They had a good run.
	11:00am Fredericks: Gel unexpectedly split after the New Jersey-based group’s guitarist allegedly committed “heinous acts”—stealing thousands of dollars and leaking nude photos of band members,
	🎸 ♥ 11:00am Lana in Bucks County: JA, thanks for sharing your show with Clay, and Clay. thanks so much for staying - It was really nice to spend more time with you before you go away again - I missed you so much this past week!
	11:01am Fredericks: Can you play some Gel, John?
	🎸 ♥ 11:01am Mike H: Enjoyed seeing BASIC this past week for the second time (first time seeing them w/ Doug McCombs in the group). Thanks for the tip on them JA. Their new EP is great, and they played with a vibraphone-led jazz trio called Bark Culture who were excellent
	11:01am ?: ↳ Woo @10:31 Im glad TOPT has principles. Wish fmu weren't swinging to the right in the name of neutrality or a "vibe"
	♥ 11:02am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Song: "heart & center" by "michael gregory jackson" Really lovin’ this. Has a sort of Sonny Sharrock/Bern Nix thing.
	11:02am fractal84: This is awesome
	🎸 ♥ 11:02am Lana in Bucks County: Yeah this is a crazy winding tune
	♥ 11:04am TDK60: ↳ @11:01 On which show did this happen? The date?
	🎸 ♥ 11:04am PaulRobeson1925: I got something for you
	♥ 11:05am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ @11:01 I don’t think they’re swinging to the right but more that Clay is just trying to keep things light. Political stuff, even if he agrees (which I bet he does) is sort of out of place during Wake, at least in such a direct way.
	♥ 11:06am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Song: "heart & center" by "michael gregory jackson" @JA, thanks for this. It’s fantastic!!
	🎸 ♥ 11:06am Lizardner Dave !: ↳ Mister Dobalina @10:59 IIRC when Wake was launched part of its mission statement was to be a relief from politics of all kinds. I'm pretty sure there are plenty of places people can go and get their fill of venting about the end times that we're in. So I completely respect Todd's decision to leave the show if he felt he couldn't express himself in a manner that he felt appropriate and he's got 3 hours every Saturday to get everything off his chest.
	♥ 11:08am TDK60: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:05 Morning Woods of Maine. You're probably right. On WFMU such seems to be the choice of the deejay which seems apt and fair. It's their show.
	🎸 ♥ 11:08am No Big Thing in Chicago: Ha! Amazing Mufreesboro callout.
	🎸 ♥ 11:08am Karl: Bob James Machinesboro
	🎸 ♥ 11:08am PaulRobeson1925: Does this look right to you? wfmu.org...
	♥ 11:09am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ TDK60 @11:08 I mean, plenty of dj’s are putting it right out there including Trouble, Belock and hell, even Fabio!
	11:10am Ivan: murfreesboro, home of the original Vinyl Room records
	🎸 ♥ 11:10am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @11:08 Light ring wear
	♥ 11:11am WoodsOfMaine: Pretty soon the FCC will declare that station IDs must include “All Hail President Trump"
	♥ 11:12am josquin depressed: ↳ red_door_what_for in ypsilanti @10:39 Huge Basketball Shorts
	🎸 ♥ 11:13am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ josquin depressed @11:12 HBS!! THANK YOU!!!
	♥ 11:14am josquin depressed: ↳ red_door_what_for in ypsilanti @11:13 no prob, i think about that video once a week
	11:14am J&E in Ithaca NY: Come on up and have the meet up here in Ithaca!
	🎸 ♥ 11:15am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ J&E in Ithaca NY @11:14 Watkins Glenn state Park!!!
	11:15am J&E in Ithaca NY: That would be amazing! Or beautiful Buttermilk Falls for that matter.
	🎸 ♥ 11:15am 2/3 of the Perrin Family: rt 28 in the Catskills for your billboard and let's do a Kingston meetup. Or we can host one here in Samsonville.
	11:15am J&E in Ithaca NY: Or perhaps most appropriate of all at Lucifer Falls at Robert Treman State Park.
	♥ 11:17am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ J&E in Ithaca NY @11:14 I have an album by the band The Horseflies, from Ithaca. Seem to remember a song “I Live Where It’s Grey"
	♥ 11:18am Aunt Sushi: ↳ 2/3 of the Perrin Family @11:15 I second this (as a former Ulster County resident who loves both the HV and WFMU)
	🎸 ♥ 11:19am Bob Tankenstein: Reading you loud and clear down here in Murfreesboro, JA. Can’t wait to see the billboard
	♥ 11:19am Polyus: ↳ Song: "bahia" by "gato barbieri" I randomly snagged a Gato 3xLP box a couple of months ago that I still have not spent any time with, maybe this is a good reminder to get to it this weekend.
	11:21am rx "rexy" scabin: Warsaw NY would be too far away geographically and in other ways for a meet-up, but it is beautiful here.
	🎸 ♥ 11:22am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:05 Agree with you all here, with an addendum that Clay did express agreement with Todd as well as apparently being spotted at a Bernie rally :~) He seems like a good guy. I appreciate that the Wake space is all-inclusive and positive. It's actually great work imo, peaceful spaces like this are as much a part of change as Mark Hurst's show for example~✨
	🎸 ♥ 11:24am Lana in Bucks County: Apologies for my earlier misuse of a term John- not 'taciturn" just "reticent" - I always get those two confused. According to MW, "taciturn implies a temperamental disinclination to speech and usually connotes unsociability. reticent implies a reluctance to speak out or at length, especially about one's own affairs." XO
	🎸 ♥ 11:25am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ red_door_what_for in ypsilanti @11:22 (Not to say that dissent isn't peaceful, though! Perhaps there's a better word to use.)
	♥ 11:25am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ red_door_what_for in ypsilanti @11:22 Yeah. I need that positivity right about now.
	🎸 ♥ 11:26am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:25 Word that! We're only human after all, we all need a little pixie from time to time ✨
	🎸 ♥ 11:30am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ Song: "slow motion" by "roy ayers" Getting lost in these sweet sounds mannn RIP Roy Ayers 💖
	🎸 ♥ 11:30am Lana in Bucks County: ↳ red_door_what_for in ypsilanti @11:22 Clay does a masterful job of walking that fine line of inclusivity, neutrality, and positivity on his show; somehow supporting us thru these difficult times without incisive blame or hate towards some of the powers that be. John and Clay had a fantastic discussion of the political climate, I think one weeks after the TOPT thing. John had some very interesting and helpful insights, which really healped me, anyway.
	🎸 ♥ 11:32am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @11:21 Fredonia NY. We could make a huge driftwood bonfire on the the rocks at the Lake
	11:32am Andres: ↳ Song: "shadows of the east" by "roy ayers" This is gorgeous. RIP Roy Ayers.
	🎸 ♥ 11:34am common: ↳ Song: "ebony blaze" by "roy ayers ubiquity" hot!
	🎸 ♥ 11:34am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ josquin depressed @11:14 "100% polyester mesh, shorts that would look better on John Tesh" 💀💀💀 ohhh it's all coming back to me now.... the early youtube chamber of my brain is buzzing
	🎸 ♥ 11:35am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ Song: "ebony blaze" by "roy ayers ubiquity" SPEAKING OF XYLOPHONE !! 🔥🔥🔥 put that in your ABC book !!!!
	🎸 ♥ 11:36am Noir Lover: Luckily got to see Roy Ayers once at Marcus Garvey Park in Harlem, 2015.
	♥ 11:37am TDK60: ↳ Lana in Bucks County @11:30 Hi Lana. Do you recall which week that was?
	🎸 ♥ 11:39am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ Lana in Bucks County @11:24 Like a contemplative silence vs a brooding silence, it's subtle but an often overlooked part of communication. Thanks for giving me something to think about!
	11:41am eva: great show! listening @ work but have to go. they just rolled in the melon bar.
	11:42am Fredericks: "Every bone in my body says run. And I haven't been sleeping well for over a week. My heart says love one another. My ego says don't let them win. Don't give up. Don't abandon a worthy cause." -Tavish Forsyth,
	11:42am Spoony G: Clay has this on in a big way right now.
	🎸 ♥ 11:43am Lana in Bucks County: ↳ TDK60 @11:37 Sorry, no. It was one or two weeks after TOPT "broke -up" with Clay. Clay starting discussing his conflicted feelings with John. Somebody earlier in this chat went back to listen tothat Wake episode, maybe they can direct you.
	♥ 11:44am lankylad: Finally found the segment when Todd quit his call-in segment on Wake - I was expecting it to be contentious, but it was super chill: wfmu.org...
	🎸 ♥ 11:44am zachary: Thanks, John. Loving the jazz all morning.
	🎸 ♥ 11:45am Lana in Bucks County: ↳ red_door_what_for in ypsilanti @11:39 Yes, I think "taciturn" has a bit of a negative tone compared to "reticent."
	🎸 ♥ 11:46am Lana in Bucks County: ↳ Fredericks @11:42 Beautiful
	🎸 ♥ 11:46am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @11:32 Build a Drift wood structure in spring and smoke in it
	♥ 11:49am Tooth: ↳ Lana in Bucks County @11:45 Taciturn implies anti-social, to my mind.
	🎸 ♥ 11:49am Audrey from Colombia: Thank you JAzz
	🎸 ♥ 11:50am Bob Tankenstein: Thanks, JA! Great show!
	🎸 ♥ 11:50am zachary: ↳ lankylad @11:44 Thanks, lankylad. I missed the Todd segment previously.
	11:51am rx "rexy" scabin: @PaulRobeson1925 mrs. scabin is a proud Fredonia graduate.
	11:51am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you, John and Everyone. Up to your usual standards.
	🎸 ♥ 11:52am Rednex: Thanks, Therapy Jazz
	♥ 11:52am lankylad: ↳ zachary @11:50 welcome!
	🎸 ♥ 11:52am Bob Tankenstein: I can feel his ubiquity
	11:53am rx "rexy" scabin: A program about jazz and your psyche.
	🎸 ♥ 11:53am No Big Thing in Chicago: Thanks for a great 3 hours, JA and everyone. As always I walk away with some new ideas for near-future listening and maybe a little less of a doofus.
	🎸 ♥ 11:53am luka: thank u JA
	11:54am TerrDE: Thanks John, great show !
	🎸 ♥ 11:54am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: Oooh I gotta revisit that show~ Thank you for sharing!!✨
	🎸 ♥ 11:54am luka: oh, the marathon show with Marty was an all-timer btw. everyone should go listen to that.
	11:55am andy the painter: that last set was great, John. just kinda got lost listening to it while folding laundry. nice.
	🎸 ♥ 11:55am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ red_door_what_for in ypsilanti @11:54 @Lana in Bucks County
	♥ 11:55am Mister Dobalina: That reminds me, I gotta clean this place up. All this Jazz is distracting, but also encouraging to do so.
	♥ 11:56am TDK60: ↳ zachary @11:50 Lankylad, zachary. I just listened to that. It sounds like Todd surprised Clay with his exit. It was amicable. Todd must've had other reasons. Busy maybe.
	11:56am rx "rexy" scabin: @Lana in Bucks County everyone is reticent compared to Clay.
	🎸 ♥ 11:56am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @11:51 In good company. Neil Postman too
	🎸 ♥ 11:56am Lana in Bucks County: ↳ lankylad @11:44 Thanks lankylad
	🎸 ♥ 11:57am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: The tunes have been absolutely rippin I feel so much better than I did this morning between the therapy and the sweet jazz therapy ayye
	🎸 ♥ 11:57am bradford: Thanks, JA.
	🎸 ♥ 11:57am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ Fredericks @11:42 Love this
	11:57am Andres: ↳ lankylad @11:44 Listening to it, he is simply taking a break. Clay encourages and thanks Todd for freely sharing his opinion. All good.
	🎸 ♥ 11:58am Lana in Bucks County: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @11:56 Haha, maybe! I love his (what' the opposite of reticent)?
	🎸 ♥ 11:58am Karl: Thank JAZZ, thank self-JAZZ
	♥ 11:58am TDK60: Some fine tracks today. The demonically fast Hutcherson, the intriguing Michael Gregory Jackson, the therapy session. WFMU has it all. Gracias, John! That's Spanish. A lot of residents in this great country speak this tongue.
	11:59am Andres: Dug the show, parts 1 and 2. Thanks, John!
	🎸 ♥ 11:59am listener 126464: Thanks, John.
	🎸 ♥ 11:59am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ Mister Dobalina @11:55 Cheers to that, I'm with ya here, cleaning ahoy 🧹✨🎶
	♥ 11:59am Tooth: ↳ TDK60 @11:58 ¿De verdad?
	♥ 12:00pm Mister Dobalina: Thanks, as always, JA.
	♥ 12:00pm TDK60: ↳ Tooth @11:59 Verdad, Tooth. I heard it down at the bodega. Really.
	🎸 ♥ 12:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Jazz today!

JA In The AM with John Allen: Playlist from March 21, 2025

View John Allen's profile

"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

I don't know, my tastes have changed I guess. Not into that grim/bleak outlook any more. I need music that lifts me up.

He came and picked us up at the hotel, and we took the subway down to Chinatown, where we found a suitable restaurant. I tried desperately to think of something to say. We had to have something in common, we were about the same age, did the same thing for a living, wrote novels, though his were of considerably higher quality than mine. But no, I couldn’t come up with a single topic of conversation."

Knausgaard wanted to draw a distinction between Scandinavians and Americans when it comes to small talk. In fact, the reason we couldn’t talk to each other had less to do with cultural differences than with the fact that we are both nervous people with self-esteem problems who were uncomfortable in each other’s presence. That didn’t fit into Knausgaard’s argument at that point in the article, however; and so, like any professional writer, he used the part of the story that served his need."

	10:45am Fredericks: ↳ GorillaFella @10:30 Not off hand. May have been the one about a body flying through a windshield. At least from the album with that song. I'd need to dig through my cassettes to find it.
	10:45am Andres: ↳ TerrDE @10:41 I maybe remember that. Sesame Street or The Muppet Show? My search is not yielding results.
	🎸 ♥ 10:45am Rednex: ↳ Lana in Bucks County @10:43 Roy Ayers
	🎸 ♥ 10:45am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ GorillaFella @10:44 I'm imagining your keyboard Gorilla playing along hahahha
	10:46am Jim Q: Haiku- Taciturn mandrill Yarn mallets, copasetic We get both today
	🎸 ♥ 10:46am Bob Tankenstein: Johnny’s coming hot out the gate!
	10:46am TerrDE: Just a joke, but it does seem possible
	♥ 10:47am Tooth: ↳ Jim Q @10:46 I prefer my mandrills taciturn!
	🎸 ♥ 10:47am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ Jim Q @10:46 🫰💥🫰💥🫰💥 (poetry house snapping)
	10:47am Fredericks: ↳ honest Bernardo in Argentina @10:34 Only strangled him to unconsciousness?
	♥ 10:48am Mister Dobalina: Just tuned in, diggin' these sounds.
	🎸 ♥ 10:49am Lana in Bucks County: I need a new portable cassette player to play my tapes. One that has decent bass and full sound, <$200. Anybody have any suggestions of brand, model?
	🎸 ♥ 10:49am Lana in Bucks County: wow quite a wall of sound there
	🎸 ♥ 10:50am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ Lana in Bucks County @10:49 Sony
	🎸 ♥ 10:51am honest Bernardo in Argentina: ↳ Fredericks @10:47 Ya I let him live - when John teshs simpsons theme came on I thought it actually wasn’t that bad
	🎸 ♥ 10:52am GorillaFella: ↳ Fredericks @10:45 Shredded Humans off their first album, Eaten Back to Life- some great riffs on that one! Skull Full of Maggots off that same album was the song that got me into metal haha extremely foundational music for me. I tend to prefer the Corpsegrinder era albums over the Barnes ones but that first record is has a special place in my heart
	🎸 ♥ 10:53am honest Bernardo in Argentina: Oh damn I went back into the archives and heard TOPT quit on air. Now I’m sad. 😢
	10:53am Fredericks: ↳ Song: ">>>" by "bobby hutcherson" Trumpeter is on fire.
	♥ 10:54am Mister Dobalina: ↳ honest Bernardo in Argentina @10:53 Wait, what?!?! When did this happen. First he breaks up with Clay & then this?
	🎸 ♥ 10:55am Lana in Bucks County: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @10:50 thanks, I'll look into them
	♥ 10:56am TDK60: ↳ Song: "heart & center" by "michael gregory jackson" I heard this bass as really interesting, looked it up and it's not bass but a cellist, Abdul Wadud.
	10:56am Cosmic: I just tried to sign the petition against the closing of the education department, but I don’t have a US zip code. Can someone please sign it for me??? https://sign.moveon.org/petitions/block-donald-trump-s-attempts-to-abolish-the-department-of-education?source=unb&after_action=ssd3
	10:57am Philip: Dig this groove. excellent
	🎸 ♥ 10:57am honest Bernardo in Argentina: ↳ Mister Dobalina @10:54 Sorry nonono I am taking about his quitting the Pidge call ins - which doesn’t make sense to me. I’ll miss it.
	🎸 ♥ 10:58am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ Cosmic @10:56 Hey Cosmic! Thank you for sharing. Things are nuts lately
	♥ 10:59am Mister Dobalina: ↳ honest Bernardo in Argentina @10:57 Phewww, false alarm. Guess TOPT had enough of the Pigeonization. They had a good run.
	11:00am Fredericks: Gel unexpectedly split after the New Jersey-based group’s guitarist allegedly committed “heinous acts”—stealing thousands of dollars and leaking nude photos of band members,
	🎸 ♥ 11:00am Lana in Bucks County: JA, thanks for sharing your show with Clay, and Clay. thanks so much for staying - It was really nice to spend more time with you before you go away again - I missed you so much this past week!
	11:01am Fredericks: Can you play some Gel, John?
	🎸 ♥ 11:01am Mike H: Enjoyed seeing BASIC this past week for the second time (first time seeing them w/ Doug McCombs in the group). Thanks for the tip on them JA. Their new EP is great, and they played with a vibraphone-led jazz trio called Bark Culture who were excellent
	11:01am ?: ↳ Woo @10:31 Im glad TOPT has principles. Wish fmu weren't swinging to the right in the name of neutrality or a "vibe"
	♥ 11:02am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Song: "heart & center" by "michael gregory jackson" Really lovin’ this. Has a sort of Sonny Sharrock/Bern Nix thing.
	11:02am fractal84: This is awesome
	🎸 ♥ 11:02am Lana in Bucks County: Yeah this is a crazy winding tune
	♥ 11:04am TDK60: ↳ @11:01 On which show did this happen? The date?
	🎸 ♥ 11:04am PaulRobeson1925: I got something for you
	♥ 11:05am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ @11:01 I don’t think they’re swinging to the right but more that Clay is just trying to keep things light. Political stuff, even if he agrees (which I bet he does) is sort of out of place during Wake, at least in such a direct way.
	♥ 11:06am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Song: "heart & center" by "michael gregory jackson" @JA, thanks for this. It’s fantastic!!
	🎸 ♥ 11:06am Lizardner Dave !: ↳ Mister Dobalina @10:59 IIRC when Wake was launched part of its mission statement was to be a relief from politics of all kinds. I'm pretty sure there are plenty of places people can go and get their fill of venting about the end times that we're in. So I completely respect Todd's decision to leave the show if he felt he couldn't express himself in a manner that he felt appropriate and he's got 3 hours every Saturday to get everything off his chest.
	♥ 11:08am TDK60: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:05 Morning Woods of Maine. You're probably right. On WFMU such seems to be the choice of the deejay which seems apt and fair. It's their show.
	🎸 ♥ 11:08am No Big Thing in Chicago: Ha! Amazing Mufreesboro callout.
	🎸 ♥ 11:08am Karl: Bob James Machinesboro
	🎸 ♥ 11:08am PaulRobeson1925: Does this look right to you? wfmu.org...
	♥ 11:09am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ TDK60 @11:08 I mean, plenty of dj’s are putting it right out there including Trouble, Belock and hell, even Fabio!
	11:10am Ivan: murfreesboro, home of the original Vinyl Room records
	🎸 ♥ 11:10am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @11:08 Light ring wear
	♥ 11:11am WoodsOfMaine: Pretty soon the FCC will declare that station IDs must include “All Hail President Trump"
	♥ 11:12am josquin depressed: ↳ red_door_what_for in ypsilanti @10:39 Huge Basketball Shorts
	🎸 ♥ 11:13am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ josquin depressed @11:12 HBS!! THANK YOU!!!
	♥ 11:14am josquin depressed: ↳ red_door_what_for in ypsilanti @11:13 no prob, i think about that video once a week
	11:14am J&E in Ithaca NY: Come on up and have the meet up here in Ithaca!
	🎸 ♥ 11:15am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ J&E in Ithaca NY @11:14 Watkins Glenn state Park!!!
	11:15am J&E in Ithaca NY: That would be amazing! Or beautiful Buttermilk Falls for that matter.
	🎸 ♥ 11:15am 2/3 of the Perrin Family: rt 28 in the Catskills for your billboard and let's do a Kingston meetup. Or we can host one here in Samsonville.
	11:15am J&E in Ithaca NY: Or perhaps most appropriate of all at Lucifer Falls at Robert Treman State Park.
	♥ 11:17am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ J&E in Ithaca NY @11:14 I have an album by the band The Horseflies, from Ithaca. Seem to remember a song “I Live Where It’s Grey"
	♥ 11:18am Aunt Sushi: ↳ 2/3 of the Perrin Family @11:15 I second this (as a former Ulster County resident who loves both the HV and WFMU)
	🎸 ♥ 11:19am Bob Tankenstein: Reading you loud and clear down here in Murfreesboro, JA. Can’t wait to see the billboard
	♥ 11:19am Polyus: ↳ Song: "bahia" by "gato barbieri" I randomly snagged a Gato 3xLP box a couple of months ago that I still have not spent any time with, maybe this is a good reminder to get to it this weekend.
	11:21am rx "rexy" scabin: Warsaw NY would be too far away geographically and in other ways for a meet-up, but it is beautiful here.
	🎸 ♥ 11:22am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:05 Agree with you all here, with an addendum that Clay did express agreement with Todd as well as apparently being spotted at a Bernie rally :~) He seems like a good guy. I appreciate that the Wake space is all-inclusive and positive. It's actually great work imo, peaceful spaces like this are as much a part of change as Mark Hurst's show for example~✨
	🎸 ♥ 11:24am Lana in Bucks County: Apologies for my earlier misuse of a term John- not 'taciturn" just "reticent" - I always get those two confused. According to MW, "taciturn implies a temperamental disinclination to speech and usually connotes unsociability. reticent implies a reluctance to speak out or at length, especially about one's own affairs." XO
	🎸 ♥ 11:25am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ red_door_what_for in ypsilanti @11:22 (Not to say that dissent isn't peaceful, though! Perhaps there's a better word to use.)
	♥ 11:25am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ red_door_what_for in ypsilanti @11:22 Yeah. I need that positivity right about now.
	🎸 ♥ 11:26am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:25 Word that! We're only human after all, we all need a little pixie from time to time ✨
	🎸 ♥ 11:30am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ Song: "slow motion" by "roy ayers" Getting lost in these sweet sounds mannn RIP Roy Ayers 💖
	🎸 ♥ 11:30am Lana in Bucks County: ↳ red_door_what_for in ypsilanti @11:22 Clay does a masterful job of walking that fine line of inclusivity, neutrality, and positivity on his show; somehow supporting us thru these difficult times without incisive blame or hate towards some of the powers that be. John and Clay had a fantastic discussion of the political climate, I think one weeks after the TOPT thing. John had some very interesting and helpful insights, which really healped me, anyway.
	🎸 ♥ 11:32am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @11:21 Fredonia NY. We could make a huge driftwood bonfire on the the rocks at the Lake
	11:32am Andres: ↳ Song: "shadows of the east" by "roy ayers" This is gorgeous. RIP Roy Ayers.
	🎸 ♥ 11:34am common: ↳ Song: "ebony blaze" by "roy ayers ubiquity" hot!
	🎸 ♥ 11:34am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ josquin depressed @11:14 "100% polyester mesh, shorts that would look better on John Tesh" 💀💀💀 ohhh it's all coming back to me now.... the early youtube chamber of my brain is buzzing
	🎸 ♥ 11:35am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ Song: "ebony blaze" by "roy ayers ubiquity" SPEAKING OF XYLOPHONE !! 🔥🔥🔥 put that in your ABC book !!!!
	🎸 ♥ 11:36am Noir Lover: Luckily got to see Roy Ayers once at Marcus Garvey Park in Harlem, 2015.
	♥ 11:37am TDK60: ↳ Lana in Bucks County @11:30 Hi Lana. Do you recall which week that was?
	🎸 ♥ 11:39am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ Lana in Bucks County @11:24 Like a contemplative silence vs a brooding silence, it's subtle but an often overlooked part of communication. Thanks for giving me something to think about!
	11:41am eva: great show! listening @ work but have to go. they just rolled in the melon bar.
	11:42am Fredericks: "Every bone in my body says run. And I haven't been sleeping well for over a week. My heart says love one another. My ego says don't let them win. Don't give up. Don't abandon a worthy cause." -Tavish Forsyth,
	11:42am Spoony G: Clay has this on in a big way right now.
	🎸 ♥ 11:43am Lana in Bucks County: ↳ TDK60 @11:37 Sorry, no. It was one or two weeks after TOPT "broke -up" with Clay. Clay starting discussing his conflicted feelings with John. Somebody earlier in this chat went back to listen tothat Wake episode, maybe they can direct you.
	♥ 11:44am lankylad: Finally found the segment when Todd quit his call-in segment on Wake - I was expecting it to be contentious, but it was super chill: wfmu.org...
	🎸 ♥ 11:44am zachary: Thanks, John. Loving the jazz all morning.
	🎸 ♥ 11:45am Lana in Bucks County: ↳ red_door_what_for in ypsilanti @11:39 Yes, I think "taciturn" has a bit of a negative tone compared to "reticent."
	🎸 ♥ 11:46am Lana in Bucks County: ↳ Fredericks @11:42 Beautiful
	🎸 ♥ 11:46am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @11:32 Build a Drift wood structure in spring and smoke in it
	♥ 11:49am Tooth: ↳ Lana in Bucks County @11:45 Taciturn implies anti-social, to my mind.
	🎸 ♥ 11:49am Audrey from Colombia: Thank you JAzz
	🎸 ♥ 11:50am Bob Tankenstein: Thanks, JA! Great show!
	🎸 ♥ 11:50am zachary: ↳ lankylad @11:44 Thanks, lankylad. I missed the Todd segment previously.
	11:51am rx "rexy" scabin: @PaulRobeson1925 mrs. scabin is a proud Fredonia graduate.

	🎸 ♥ 11:52am Rednex: Thanks, Therapy Jazz
	♥ 11:52am lankylad: ↳ zachary @11:50 welcome!
	🎸 ♥ 11:52am Bob Tankenstein: I can feel his ubiquity
	11:53am rx "rexy" scabin: A program about jazz and your psyche.
	🎸 ♥ 11:53am No Big Thing in Chicago: Thanks for a great 3 hours, JA and everyone. As always I walk away with some new ideas for near-future listening and maybe a little less of a doofus.
	🎸 ♥ 11:53am luka: thank u JA
	11:54am TerrDE: Thanks John, great show !
	🎸 ♥ 11:54am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: Oooh I gotta revisit that show~ Thank you for sharing!!✨
	🎸 ♥ 11:54am luka: oh, the marathon show with Marty was an all-timer btw. everyone should go listen to that.
	11:55am andy the painter: that last set was great, John. just kinda got lost listening to it while folding laundry. nice.
	🎸 ♥ 11:55am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ red_door_what_for in ypsilanti @11:54 @Lana in Bucks County
	♥ 11:55am Mister Dobalina: That reminds me, I gotta clean this place up. All this Jazz is distracting, but also encouraging to do so.
	♥ 11:56am TDK60: ↳ zachary @11:50 Lankylad, zachary. I just listened to that. It sounds like Todd surprised Clay with his exit. It was amicable. Todd must've had other reasons. Busy maybe.
	11:56am rx "rexy" scabin: @Lana in Bucks County everyone is reticent compared to Clay.
	🎸 ♥ 11:56am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @11:51 In good company. Neil Postman too
	🎸 ♥ 11:56am Lana in Bucks County: ↳ lankylad @11:44 Thanks lankylad

	🎸 ♥ 11:57am bradford: Thanks, JA.
	🎸 ♥ 11:57am red_door_what_for in ypsilanti: ↳ Fredericks @11:42 Love this
	11:57am Andres: ↳ lankylad @11:44 Listening to it, he is simply taking a break. Clay encourages and thanks Todd for freely sharing his opinion. All good.
	🎸 ♥ 11:58am Lana in Bucks County: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @11:56 Haha, maybe! I love his (what' the opposite of reticent)?
	🎸 ♥ 11:58am Karl: Thank JAZZ, thank self-JAZZ
	♥ 11:58am TDK60: Some fine tracks today. The demonically fast Hutcherson, the intriguing Michael Gregory Jackson, the therapy session. WFMU has it all. Gracias, John! That's Spanish. A lot of residents in this great country speak this tongue.
	11:59am Andres: Dug the show, parts 1 and 2. Thanks, John!
	🎸 ♥ 11:59am listener 126464: Thanks, John.

	♥ 12:00pm TDK60: ↳ Tooth @11:59 Verdad, Tooth. I heard it down at the bodega. Really.
	🎸 ♥ 12:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Jazz today!
	🎸 ♥ 12:01pm zachary: ↳ TDK60 @11:56 Yes. I did, too. Handled well by both Clay and Todd. He'll be back.
