Oh swell. Did I ever happen to mention that scatology gives me the willies?

Dean, did he tip okay?
Avatar 6:01pm geezerette:

Dean, are you the real Lyle?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:04pm Doug Schulkind:

Everybody!
Avatar 6:04pm geezerette:

Hey Doug & diggers of Doug!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:04pm Doug Schulkind:

Howdy, ndbob! And you, too, geezerette!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:04pm coelacanth:

hello
  6:05pm Dean:

Had he not tipped well, I'm sure I would have heard about it.

Not the real Lyle, but a long time ago we were both on the bandstand with Woody Herman. After the show a group of us stuck around the bar, when a local gadfly button-holed one of the trumpet players... Oh, shit, I can't even fake being an associate of Lyle.

Has John Hartford read "Eats, Shoots, and Leaves"? I'd assume he means he "smokes shit" and "fucks," because if he's gonna include number 2, why wouldn't he extend the litany to "smoke, eat, drink, shit, piss, and fuck"?
  6:06pm Dean:

And has nobody yet caught the scat joke in my first comment today?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:06pm Doug Schulkind:

Nice to see ya, coelacanth!

Cow tipped, Dean?

I bet you're all wearing shit-hearing grins out there.

Cow patty!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:11pm Doug Schulkind:

Cow burger – Burger patty = Cow patty
  6:12pm Dean:

Have it your way, Doug.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:12pm Doug Schulkind:

Simple math (or, for our UK listeners, maths).
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:12pm coelacanth:

it took some pondering, Dean; but this is the home of a world-renown punster after all.

...that first song reminds me of an interview on some network talk show in the 80s, a friend saw. -interviewer asked Iggy Pop what he's been up to and Iggy said something like " oh just licking and sucking mostly."
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:14pm Doug Schulkind:

@Dean
I will never forget the huge McDonald's billboard I once saw on the side of a West Virginia highway. Under the 20-foot photo of a grease-besotted burger read the line:

"PLEASED TO MEAT YOU"
  6:14pm Dean:

McDonald's. Now we're talking shit.

-- Failed ad campaign
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:15pm Doug Schulkind:

Meat as verb. How can America get any greater?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:16pm Stepchild:

Shit! I'm late!!
Avatar 6:16pm geezerette:

(smacking forehead) Missed that!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:17pm Doug Schulkind:

You really stepped in it, Stepchild.
  6:17pm Dean:

Grater as noun?
  6:18pm Dean:

This is riffing off Goose Creek Symphony's eponymous "Welcome to Goose Creek."
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:19pm Parq:

"Meat" would make a good euphemism for, um, that other four letter word. (Drunk: "Y'see that chick in the corner with the halter top? I'm gonna take her home tonight and meat her brains out!")
  6:19pm Dean:

The one record a band of mine ever made thanked Jack Schidtt for technical assistance. Another band, a country rock parody outfit, was dubbed Shit from Shinola. No shit.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:20pm coelacanth:

Meat, meet Meat. She's kind of a grater, but you may want to meat her.
Avatar 6:22pm geezerette:

Well,you're right Doug,it's a really shitty show!

Yay this set!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:26pm Sweet Virginia's stepchild:

The concept is really moving, huh?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:26pm Doug Schulkind:

OK, you didn't think I'd go an hour without spinning this one?! One of the top-rank "shit" tunes of all time!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:27pm coelacanth:

hahaha! SVS child!

Many of the songs on tonight's playlist are not in continent.

Thanks Doug, for instigating the release of my inner 12-year-old.
(i've been blocked up for so long.)
  6:30pm Dean:

Not sure yet if I like this show. I suppose it Depends.

@Dean
Speaking as someone who is taking care of an elderly parent, I resemble that remark.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:30pm Parq:

Fela! Turning this shit up.
  6:31pm Dean:

Oh, shit, I'm sorry if I offended you or anybody else.

(Bullshit.)

Yeah, I know from whence you speak, Doug.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:32pm Doug Schulkind:

Back in the early 1980s, my sister almost lived in the Ex-Lax building. On Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn. You could look it up.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:33pm coelacanth:

you know, one might think it would, but this program doesn't stink one bit.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:34pm Doug Schulkind:

I don't think I've ever spun this disc on the FCC-governed WFMU airwaves, but I have played Fela's "Powershow," which features the line: "Him go shit come-back. And you talk to am. Then you suprise when him. Shack for you. Him go say you no go cross. You no go cross today." Fela's Pidgin is thick enough to get away with it.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:34pm Sweet Virginia's stepchild:

It's not just regular music, c!
Avatar 6:34pm hyde:

shit, i missed half the show
  6:34pm Dean:

[...waiting for the first listener comment, "Gotta run!"...]
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:35pm Doug Schulkind:

Tony Coulter's Tape Hiss show was the first live program on the Drummer Stream today. This program is

Number Two
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:35pm coelacanth:

maybe i'm easy, but i'm cracking up here!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:36pm Parq:

Doug, then you'd better hope the stream doesn't dump.
Avatar 6:37pm geezerette:

Ugh Dean!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:37pm coelacanth:

Doug, so what's the number one drummer show of friday going to be about?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:37pm Sweet Virginia's stepchild:

Pile on, everybody!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:37pm Doug Schulkind:

Shit happens. Live tonight, on the radio.
Avatar 6:38pm Jeff:

Isn't it funny? Only for FCC-regulated radio shows, where you can't say shit, do we need a dump button.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:39pm Sweet Virginia's stepchild:

Friday, I expect, will be same shit, different day, no?
Avatar 6:39pm northguineahills:

I literally love Expensive Shit, one of my favorite Fela albums!

happy trails, Dean.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:42pm Doug Schulkind:

Greetings, northguineahills! Pass the bumwad!
  6:42pm Dean:

By the way, I think it was on a comment board this a.m. when I mentioned that my daughter refers to me as "poo-poohead."

Thanks, coelecanth!

@Sweet Virginia's stepchild
I have only scratched the shit surface. (Nice image!)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:45pm coelacanth:

(and stepchild - don't think your reference has gone un-noticed!)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:45pm Sweet Virginia's stepchild:

That's a load off of my mind!

A dump button? I don't get it.

@geezerette
I thought it was Pope Paul VI who was the recipient of Louis Armstrong's Swiss Kriss gift?!
Avatar 6:50pm geezerette:

Yeah,politics ruined a perfectly good Egyptian goddess.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:52pm coelacanth:

maybe it'll blow over...about when the swastika misinterpretation does.
Avatar 6:53pm geezerette:

Doug, I think he travelled with extras for gifts. I read the story about the Queen but there were probably many recipients.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:54pm Doug Schulkind:

Anyone ever notice (as I did for the first time the other day) that there is a swastika on the cover of Thelonious Monk's "Underground" LP?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:54pm Sweet Virginia's stepchild:

Keep going Doug
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:55pm Gary:

Shit. I saw a CD by this band at Academy today, but didn't pick it up -- they're great!

I spent the last 16 hours expecting this show to really suck. I was mistaken.

Bottom line, you know squat about shit

no doubt about Jesse. he's pretty regular.

Funny people+great music
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:20pm Parq:

Well shit, I got real busy in that last quarter hour and never got a chance to say what a moving show this was.

So glad you are a regular listener, Parq.

One of my favourite lines I hear at work "Have you opened your bowels today?"

Doug, you got one big shovel, I got me some chicken shit on the boots fixing the run yesterday. Hell, if chickens were six feet tall we would all be running for the hills.

@Brian in UK
I've got a "go" bag packed and ready in case the six-foot chickens arrive unexpectedly.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:07am Brian in UK:

Man, I loves me some Fela. (in case you had not guessed)

The weather here is as changable as a six week olds nappy (diaper to you)

That Hot 8 is cooking.
Seizure later.
