  12:00pm listener james from westwood:

good afternoon all! in conference call hell but got the station on waaaaay low in the background.
  12:01pm Doug S.:

I am Electroluxing now. Soon, the damp-mopping will be so much more radio-friendly.
  12:02pm Katya Oddio:

Need oxygen, citizens! Too much moon gas!

Busy Doing Nothing is the official lunchtime soundtrack at Brattleboro Cheese Shop & Café! Okay, back to work...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:16pm charlie:

Yay, Wendy! All you locals, go buy some cheese or sammiches from Brattleboro Cheese!
  12:17pm Doug S.:

@Wendy
I was listening to All Things Considered last night and there was a segment that was underwritten by some cheese company out of Vermont (it wasn't Cabot, but I missed the name). Anyway, I did a double-take and thought warmly of the mighty BCS&C!

Song about a fella who finds his lady friend flew to the moon, returned changed, and pined for the moon ever after: 8-Bit Ninjas - "Shiny Spaceship" (stream or free download)

Hiya Artie and Don!
  12:33pm Ike:

Dig it, baby.
  12:34pm Carmichael:

Hiya Charlie. I just bought a new Hoover Windtunnel bagless. I've never seen so much dust.
  12:36pm Carmichael:

Are you willing to play Pamela Lucia's Walking on the Moon?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:37pm charlie:

Nice to see you, Ike!
Hi Carmichael -- Is the dust in the non-bag, or is it blowing the dust around?
  12:37pm Tower:

Always like the Novos Baianos
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:38pm charlie:

Hello, Tower -- Yes that is one of my all-time fave albums!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:39pm charlie:

@ Carmichael -- re: Lucia Pamela -- we'll see how the show goes! I think I played it not long ago, no?
  12:40pm Brian in UK:

Any one for nude ironing? Very similar to naked ironing just sounds slightly ruder.
  12:43pm Katya Oddio:

With the image might we also hear King Crimson in this show?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:44pm charlie:

Hi Brian, just be careful with that iron, ok?
Don't people pay to have people do housecleaning in the nude?
  12:44pm Carmichael:

You need to be more careful with nude ironing
  12:45pm Carmichael:

Careful with that iron, Eugene.
  12:48pm Brian in UK:

@Carmichael, I remember Pink Floyd being on John Peel's show playing Careful with that Axe and the alternate title was The Murderotic Woman I believe.
  12:52pm Doug S.:

Because of devastation from Sandy, WFMU has had to re-calibrate its "silent" fundraiser in October into the HELL & HIGH WATER HURRICANE RECOVERY MARATHON. The pledge totals that came rolling wonderfully in last month have been stuffed under the mattress and now...

WFMU is back up in your grill, hat in hand. We badly need financial contributions to help us out of a deep and terrible hole.

Charlie's goal has been reset to zero and we need some new pledges to get the ball rolling.

Step up and give. Give something. Give some more.
  12:53pm Brian in UK:

@Charlie nothing like DJing in the naughty naked nude.
  12:56pm listener james from westwood:

free of the teleconference and happy to have big blood at full volume.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:58pm charlie:

@Katya -- it's a distinct possibility...
  1:04pm Uncle Michael:

Hello room.
  1:05pm Uncle Michael:

@Brian I bought that book from eBay *AND* got a refund from the other seller.
  1:06pm northguineahills:

Always nice to hear Linda Perhacs....
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:06pm charlie:

Hello again, Uncle Michael.
  1:07pm still b/p:

I just washed a pile of dishes that reached from here to the moon (a little cold for nude moon at the sink, though). And this show has been excellent accompaniment.

Then me and my jobless ass made a tiny moon-pebble of a pledge.
  1:09pm Uncle Michael:

Goodnight spork...goodnight spitoon....goodnight dishes that pile to the moon...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:09pm charlie:

Hi NGH!
Hey @still b/p -- those moon pebbles are very valuable!
  1:10pm Brian in UK:

@ UM Well done, there a dog.
  1:12pm Doug S.:

Little pebbles, melted together by the white-hot heat of a passionate listenership, turn into boulders!
Thanks for your pledge!
  1:13pm Katya Oddio:

The tiniest tastes of "Moonlight Becomes You"
  1:15pm still b/p:

That ol' moon crooner makes me think Alvarius B. and Cerberus Shoal should reunite to do an extended piece called "Bing," no?
  1:16pm Vicki:

ha ha nice loop

  1:18pm northguineahills:

I was up until 3:30am baking sweet potato pastes (not strictly an Hidalguense recipe). Time to heat those puppies up for lunch.
  1:18pm Katya Oddio:

V -- Thanks so much for sharing "Tijuana Frog Trot!" It was in the mix for our Day of the Dead party this weekend and made folks laugh and dance! I heart you and people like you. ;D

  1:20pm Katya Oddio:

Charlie, this is one of the standards I sang to drunk old patrons as a teen for rent money. Mimicked Ella, not Bing though.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:21pm charlie:

Katya, I imagine you sound more like Ella than Bing!
  1:22pm Uncle Michael:

Headlice becomes you...they go with your hair...you certainly know the right lice to wear...
  1:29pm listener james from westwood:

did we drop off the stream for a bit?
  1:29pm Michael:

Trouble with transmission from space - lost the charlie stream?
  1:29pm northguineahills:

lost ya, Charlie, got the GDDS stream playing Doug's stuff....
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:30pm charlie:

having tech diffs - be right back
  1:30pm listener james from westwood:

not that the drummer stream is bad, now!
  1:30pm Michael:

Brattleboro we've got a problem....
  1:30pm Hugo:

This sounds more like South African kwela.
  1:32pm Vicki:

oh dear
  1:32pm Michael:

Temps. check.
  1:32pm listener james from westwood:

charlie was a rolling stone,
wherever he had the stream was his home.
and when it died, we listen to fmu on the phone.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:32pm charlie:

I don't know what's wrong here. I'm back, but breaking up. Anyone?
  1:32pm Glenn L:

Now you're back!
  1:34pm listener james from westwood:

coming thru clear here!
  1:34pm Michael:

Sounds good here charlie.
  1:34pm Glenn L:

Signal loud & clear on Itunes.
  1:34pm Vicki:

sounding fine here!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:34pm charlie:

lol, James!
Hi Glenn!
thanks, all!
  1:38pm Brian in UK:

Cannot wait to pay £400 to see those old gits at an aircraft hanger. Just kidding. Free in the park in '69 was good enough.
  1:39pm Brian in UK:

Never sure if Nina is having a laugh with this Jonathan King epic.
  1:39pm listener james from westwood:

who doesn't like a free 69 in the park now and again?
  1:39pm Uncle Michael:

Oops. The Gods didn't care for that Nina track.
  1:39pm Michael:

charlie - get that cat away from your laptop!
  1:41pm ndbob:

It broke up for me, but fine now
  1:42pm still b/p:

Nina can kinda do no wrong, but the irregularities of that lunar orbit were pulling my eyebrows up and down.
  1:42pm Carmichael:

This sounds like John Hiatt.
  1:45pm Vicki:

Moon!

Speaking of the moon,..... "CHA..."....

Ricci was so cute dancing to this, wasn't she?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:54pm charlie:

yes, that was a very sweet (and surreal) moment
  1:58pm ndbob:

this is great Charlie!
  1:58pm Tower:

@NHG - Gravity is a harsh mistress.
  1:59pm Vicki:

I love the version she sings in Breakfast at Tiffany's

This is from my "Moon River" wing.

excellent show charlie!

Thanks everyone for hangin' out, hangin' on, and hangin' in there today! See you next time.
  2:03pm Michael:

Thanks charlie. It was out of this world, so to speak.
