Listener comments!
	♥ 7:02pm pacific standard simon: I'm still waiting to see them dancin' skirts a-twirl.
	♥ 7:05pm dale: we had a lonzo and oscar album or two when i was a wee spud. LOVED the wacky cover with the oversized instruments and clownlike outfits.
	♥ 7:06pm dale: country comedy time was one. is may the bird of paradise fly up your nose on that?
	7:07pm finerwhiner: WITHOUT LOOKING IT UP, can anyone name Dizzy Dean's baseball-playing brother?
	♥ 7:08pm pacific standard simon: Daffy, right?
	7:09pm finerwhiner: Yep. Don't think he made records.
	7:10pm Becky: @dale Don't think that was on Country Comedy Time.
	♥ 7:10pm pacific standard simon: How about some Geezinslaw Brothers?
	7:13pm finerwhiner: Becky doesn't care for 'slaw.
	♥ 7:17pm sweeks: Yep, totally killin' it
	♥ 7:18pm pacific standard simon: I wasn't here last week because there was a conflict with a Giants game. Had to listen on the archive.
	7:19pm Mailman Tom: Thank you, Honky Tonk Radio Girl. You know how to rock!
	7:20pm Becky: Thanks, Mailman Tom!!
	♥ 7:22pm pacific standard simon: Autographed, yet.
	♥ 7:28pm pacific standard simon: No slaw, plenty kraut.
	7:29pm JakeGould: My view of this show this week is it’s not rocking hard… Rocking smooth…
	7:30pm finerwhiner: Trubert!
	♥ 7:32pm sweeks: Man I love these answer records. There seems to be so many of them in classic country
	7:33pm adrian in mpls: i forgot about this gem - so good!
	7:33pm marc: The response the Roger Miller's "Dang Me"?
	7:34pm Becky: @marc, you've hit the nail on the head, as it were
	7:38pm JakeGould: @sweeks: I say it was a trend from the heyday of 45 singles in the 1950s and 1960s. Lots of those response songs exist outside of country.
	7:40pm Becky: @JakeGould I think you're right. Lots of R&B ones, too!
	7:42pm Becky: But also, lots of songs written from a distinctly male perspective that begged for a female answer, and a few vice versa!
	♥ 7:43pm sweeks: Definitely. It does seem that most of them are back and forth between male and female singers!
	7:45pm JakeGould: @sweeks: Either that or it’s some kid berating teenage issues and then an “answer” from their parent explaining why they have to be an over-beraing d-bag to their own child.
	7:48pm pzolla: Great show today, Becky!
	7:49pm Becky: Thanks, @pzolla!!
	♥ 7:50pm sweeks: Every heartache/breakup song needs a response song. It's only fair...
	7:50pm JakeGould: Ditto what pzolla said. Bravo, Becky!
	♥ 7:51pm pacific standard simon: I used to have a girlfriend who sang "House Of The Rising Sun" -- not like this, though.
	7:51pm pzolla: Who produced that Loretta Lynn track btw?
	7:52pm Becky: @pzolla Owen Bradley.
	7:53pm Loretta's fan: Ms. Becky I love your show. XOXO
	♥ 7:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - Yes Thx HTRG !
	7:56pm Becky: Thanks for listening, everyone! I'd like to let you know that I'll be DJing the Brooklyn Country Music Festival August 20 - 23 at the Bell House!! Come on down! www.brooklyncountrymusic.com
	7:57pm adrian in mpls: loving the show - as always - thanks Becky!
	7:57pm Bklyn kid: where have you been all my life Becky! Thanks for the broadcast!
	♥ 7:59pm pacific standard simon: Great, as always, Becky.
	7:59pm JakeGould: The “Boogie Bear” answer song is about a “Howling Hound.”
