Listener comments!

  9:20am
Kosta:

Good morning Liz!
  9:24am
north guinea hills:

so, we're going to idaho?
  9:29am
Liz B.:

Morning fellahs! Not quite Idaho... more like the original potatoland.
  9:30am
Kosta:

that'll be ireland, no?
  9:31am
Listener Dave from NH:

Really? This is on Hydra Head?
It's pretty gorgeous stuff, this Pyramids track. I've got to gets my hands on it now.
  9:31am
jorge:

so you start the countdown to inca-land, Liz?..i just turn on the e-radio, and suena fantastico!
  9:36am
mike:

opening set was awesome! i'm going to buy chocolate milk!
  9:37am
Liz B.:

Hi Jorge and thanks again for the Lima tips!
  9:37am
lurdan:

woo hoo! so cow...
  9:40am
Kosta:

Today, over 99% of all cultivated potato varieties worldwide are descendants of a subspecies indigenous to Chile..... SPUDS TRAVEL
  9:41am
jorge:

You have an email bout lazy peruvian sound checkers and delayed schedules.....dudley..dudley..dudley pleaseeee. haha.
  9:49am
Liz B.:

Didn't realize the origin of potatoes was so hotly contested. I read that they were from the Peruvian Andes, but now I see that Bolivia and Chile are also claiming to be the original potatoland.
  9:54am
jorge:

well at the beggining (yeah there was rythym) but also potatos and Peru was formed by all the countries that are part of south america now. Later when politicians start to play with the roots of everything (you know...politicians) they start to mess everything hoping to get some attention and cash retributions for their pockets.

Let&#180;s ask France what do they think about that.
  9:57am
Kosta:

Good quip Jorge, hats off to you sir!
  10:01am
Parq:

So how, exactly, *did* they get to Ireland?

Hope everybody had a good Record Store Day. I kept saying "Record Fair Day" - force of habit, or just wishful thinking.
  10:02am
Kosta:

Leprichauns brought them over.....
  10:03am
north guinea hills:

  10:04am
Barney:

Are the origins of pisco as controversial as those of the potato? (is everything that starts with p and ends with o from chile or peru?)
  10:04am
Jorge:

thanks Kosta, it&#180;s funny cause i guess all the kids there learn that everything was originally from their countries, but Chile is kinda tricky when it comes to "Originally made in" stuff.

Oh yeah, i have to recogn that i bring down potatos to Ireland originally.
  10:05am
Kosta:

Good thing im from Athens, Greece then!
  10:07am

  11:31am
sahak:

  11:36am
jorge:

yeah congelador and gepe, love that guy sounds
  11:38am
north guinea hills:

  11:38am
Liz B.:

Yay! Peace and potatoes from Peru to Chile!
  11:40am
Liz B.:

I think Radio I-Ching is sampling Hazma El Din, supplementing the oud jams with sax, percussion, etc.
  11:42am
sebastian in santiago:

peace, pisco and potatoes! some ceviche wouldn't harm, either.
  11:42am
north guinea hills:

IAN:

Liz.....Tu crois que les pays sont n&#233;cessaires m&#234;me avec de pomme de terre?.........mmmmmmm....the best
  11:53am
jorge:

hard one. a few parts: have a lot of "latin" slang, and im talking about 2-3 decades nu yorican latin slang.
  11:57am
jorge:

and that means: A few parts of that Sonora Poncena song have a lot of nu yorican latin slang, which have 2 or 3 decades old now, so is kinda hard to translate to english, specially if your english really sucks like mine.
  11:58am
Parq:
