Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:45am Jeff Golick:

Hey, Charlie. I think I owe you an apology. Yesterday I said you were broadcasting from Vermont. Clearly that bunny is calling from New Hampshire. So sorry.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:49am listener james from westwood:

From the color of the phone, that bunny is calling from 1975!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:52am Artie Haywire:

Pushbutton dialing makes for one very modern bunny.
Avatar 11:54am Mr. Trace, Keener Than Most Persons:

Is someone or something missing?
  11:55am Leper Sonnet:

Is this the right room for the Chaz & Dave concert?
Avatar 11:57am βrian:

I'd say early 70s or late 60s. Avocado was de rigueur in 1975.

You people are all genuses. <3
  12:10pm Spleen Toner:

Sarah sure gives it some bunny
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:13pm Charlie:

You're no bunny 'til some bunny loves you.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:13pm Charlie:

And greetings all too numerous for me to name right now!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:14pm Webhamster Henry:

Did you do a Hello/Goodbye premium at one point, Charlie? I can't remember!
Avatar 12:15pm Sarah N:

Funny Charlie! Carrots for everyone.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:16pm Charlie:

Hello, Henry! No, I did not. But I wouldn't put it past me to do so.
Avatar 12:16pm bobdoesthings:

Nope. we're all the same genus Charlie. i'm presuming..

@Mr Serpent - as Prof Longhair used to say...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:44pm Charlie:

Jeff -- have you heard Kaye Woodward's side-project, Minisnap? One of my faves.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:45pm Jeff Golick:

No, Charlie! Totally unaware of Minisnap! Will have to investigate...
Avatar 12:46pm Carmichael:

Hey, I like these Bats. Hang on, what's this Beatles thingie?

Hello Schumtz.

Re Bats/Minisnap, the Bats bandcamp page seems a very good source: thebats.bandcamp.com
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:00pm Charlie:

I will look into that silly film.
Saw an interesting one last weekend: The Wolfpack.
  1:01pm One Pert Lens:

I paid through the nose to buy this CD (Bacon) when you played it first...years ago. A prized possession.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:01pm Charlie:

Oh, cool, thanks Jeff, will check.
  1:01pm jan:

Loving the show! and Hello, Hello
Avatar 1:03pm Carmichael:

My college-bound daughter is studying Spanish, so I showed her Women on the Edge of a Nervous Breakdown. she responded, "Huh."
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:03pm Charlie:

Hello hello, Jan.
Yes, 'one pert lens' - that is not easy to find here!
Avatar 1:07pm βrian:

@Carmichael: Was it the Castilian "s" that threw her?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:18pm Jeff Golick:

Lovely Cluster. Believe this is also on the Sowiesoso record.
  1:23pm testingwithfire:

@Carmichael I work with mostly millennials. I was going to put a gif from Young Frankenstein into an email a few days ago but I feared it would be lost on them. Who will teach the children about Marty Feldman?
Avatar 1:24pm βrian:

"Damn your eyes!"

"Too late!"

Although this song doesn't really qualify, I've been getting into old trucker songs. Love the plonk plonk.

Miss Piggy = Wing
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:51pm listener james from westwood:

What the hell with Kermit and Piggy?! I saw enough divorce trauma in the actual 70s, now I've got it in 70s-nostalgia form?!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:52pm listener james from westwood:

OK. a literal LOL@ the Wing parallel. Very nicely done.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:52pm Charlie:

I had the pleasure of watching Frank Oz in the studio once recording as Miss Piggy. Mind-blowing!
Avatar 1:54pm Carmichael:

HA! I was waiting for Paul Williams to come out and play!
  1:54pm Prone Nestle:

Getting blown by Miss Piggy? Yikes!
Avatar 1:55pm Carmichael:

This is a great soundtrack, by the way. Upholstery is one of my favorite tunes.
