Listener comments!
	8:08pm Quiet Here: Quiet Here here. Where's the noise?
	8:10pm Matt from Springfield: @Quiet Here You just BROUGHT it!! Howdy Codger and 78 fans!
	8:12pm Matt from Springfield: That cat's a cad!
	8:12pm Loud Lou: Anyone seen my ruckus?
	8:14pm Matt from Springfield: Settling in the Boudoir with my own Rancho Malario and Sly Weasel.
	8:19pm Van in DC: I'm new here (this show, etc). Hi.
	8:20pm G: This reminds me of a certain insurance ad.
	8:21pm Matt from Springfield: Howdy Van! The Old Codger is the oldest DJ on WFMU -- by a long shot! He fills in occasionally.
	8:22pm Matt from Springfield: And hi there G! :)
	8:22pm Van in DC: Ah, thanks Mr Matt, and howdy!! Always a pleasure to see you, as it were, on the playlists :)
	8:22pm G: Hoover and Smith -- a 1928 election song -- I never knew Herbert and Al sold vacuums and cough drops, though
	8:23pm Van in DC: I'm not sure Matt from Springfield even sleeps... :)
	8:24pm G: Matt is a bot :P Mattbot!
	8:24pm G: As techs say: It's not a bug, it's a feature
	8:25pm Matt from Springfield: Why thank ye, Van! @G Don't know what kind of in-jokes those were. The mention of oil earlier prob alludes to the Teapot Dome scandal.
	8:26pm G: They took 45 rpm out of the 78s and made 33s. Clear devolution.
	8:27pm Matt from Springfield: RCA Victor probably screwed the pooch on the (Earth) surface noise.
	8:28pm Van in DC: So about to go lay down on couch and will surely fall asleep but will have FMU streaming on to be there with me as I pass into sleeeeeeeeeeep.... I should do this more often :)
	8:29pm G: @Van: Back in the 1930s depression people also used music to escape the woes created by poor policy choices :-)
	8:30pm Matt from Springfield: Pleasant dreams Van! At least with THIS melody you'll get them!
	8:30pm Matt from Springfield: FATS!
	8:31pm Mike East: I've been falling asleep listening to radio static because it calms my daughter. at times, I think I'm listening to one of the "stranger" shows on WFMU.
	8:31pm Van in DC: G, Matt, Old Codger person, and everyone else, good night, I'll be still listening in.
	8:32pm G: nn...
	8:32pm G: The Man I Love: classic tune, classic performer
	8:32pm Matt from Springfield: Say, would the Codger have anything by Skip McCullup & the Ennui Inducers? They played and sang ragtime songs, but in reverse. And this was before people figured out how to reverse a phonograph!
	8:33pm Matt from Springfield: Night Van! @Mike Like white noise!
	8:34pm Matt from Springfield: This is pretty non blue for Sophie Tucker!
	8:38pm Mike East: exactly, Matt. Knocks her right out, and keeps her there...for a while anyway.
	8:38pm G: Blue enough for ya yet, Matt?
	8:42pm blossom: yoohoo, courtney! just an old flame rarin' to spark things up once more. will you ever take me back?
	8:42pm Matt from Springfield: The blue always comes through!
	8:42pm Matt from Springfield: It's blossom, dearie!
	8:43pm G: The old codger in the alley with a blackjack.
	8:44pm Radiola 18: Hey old man, do I have to dial a 1 before that 6 ?
	8:45pm G: You have to tell the operator the number you want to dial.
	8:46pm Matt from Springfield: And wait to be connected, then shout out "Ahoy ahoy!"
	8:46pm G: In bourbon veritas.
	8:48pm Radiola 18: The line is busy ...
	8:50pm G: The operator is canoodling in the moonlight with courtney, that dog.
	8:52pm PP Perkins: UNCLE GADJOS!!!!! You really were a bagpipe star! Sorry I didn't believe you all those years.
	8:52pm Radiola 18: Courtney is the original ladies man
	8:53pm G: Little-known trivia: "My City Was Gone" is based on "My Ohio Home".
	8:53pm Luigi: Courtney is plushed to the scuppers tonight.
	8:53pm Matt from Springfield: By that you mean the ORIGINAL! First of the Red Hot Daddies!
	8:54pm Matt from Springfield: Oooh, Slovak bagpipes.

	8:55pm G: Yeah, never enough droneage on ye olde FMU :-)
	8:57pm G: Kate! God Bless America! ;)
	8:57pm Radiola 18: not much to say tonight, old man, cat got your tongue?
