7:41am Mark S:

Is it a competition, or an exhibition?

7:46am Mark S:

Important distinction, I believe it is a competition.

🚽

7:49am AnAnonymousParty:

Alright then. USA! USA! USA!

7:57am Mark S:

Yeah no one clears their nasal passages better than the USA!

🚽

8:08am AnAnonymousParty:

Helps us sniff out communism.

8:10am Mark S:

Damn smelly commies

🚽

8:36am -Ken:

@kenfromHP - Yes, hazmat update at 840 - in five minutes

8:49am FȶFȶ (:

Oh, I missed the hazmat update. But I bet it was disastrous -if you catch my drift.

8:49am Brian C.:

Curious, are many cars donated to FMU?

🚽

9:02am Matt Warwick:

SAD

9:02am Planet Tyler:

Is meat song still #1?

9:02am steveo:

i think there may be some double entendres in this piece.

9:02am Sebastian:

9:02am The Oscar:

@medson Beat me to it!

9:02am grubbus:

Good morning Kenbot! Hot meat in the parking lot on the 4th?

9:03am P-90:

G'Morning Ken and Kenthusiasts

9:03am dale:

this song takes me back to pre vegan summers.

9:04am steveo:

i can tell this is going to classic ken all the way today

9:04am Cliff in Prague:

What if I don't like either song?!

9:04am Michele:

Haha that message! #teamfelder

9:05am tom from Glasgow:

what the hell is the meat song

9:05am Planet Tyler:

@steveo what's wrong with just liking meat?

9:05am howard in nyc:

Ah, sizzling hot meat Wednesday!

9:05am phillip in the bronx:

PLEASE NO BARBAQUE!

9:05am steveo:

@tyler exactly

9:06am steveo:

remember that time he played this song on a 3-hour loop; ah those were the days

9:06am Michele:

That Snoop Dog gif makes me so happy

9:07am John in Bklyn:

The BBQ song should be our national anthem!

9:08am pantz:

I need a Neil Young grill. Makes the meat grungy.

9:09am steveo:

most listenable percptvs so far

9:09am steveo:

nice boner solo #toofar

🚽

9:10am Ken From Hyde Park:

If Liz Berg allows it, it would be cool to hear some Meat Sweats this morning.

9:10am Planet Tyler:

This is better than Trans

9:10am steveo:

aw crap, it's a flugelhorn; so embarrased

9:11am geo in jc:

Almost 30 years of listening to Ken has taught me to just submit.

9:11am dale:

sad i gave away my george foreman grill.

🚽

9:11am AnAnonymousParty:

I have a Neil Young guitar tuner. It plays the solo to Cinnamon Girl and you tune to that.

9:11am steve:

please tell me we'll hear the Gerard Depardeau punk song again

9:12am howard in nyc:

I am tempted to say this sounds like trying to play piano (After the Gold Rush), but I imagine it takes a lot of talent to intentionally play badly like that ( bad but still listenable/interesting)

9:12am BG:

Bobby Conn makes a perfect morning.

9:13am The Oscar:

Nilsson's version seems so FAST after hearing this one!

9:14am Sebastian:

This is worthy of a clicky star, beautiful!

9:14am pantz:

Ken is going all carnivore Carnevil today.

9:14am maja:

hello ken and all, black clouds over the ruhrgebiet here in germany,huge summer-rain starting NOW woah

9:15am Kimzilla:

I am feeling this Bobby Conn this morning. Morning all!

9:15am Mark S:

From the blurb for the album:

New album ORGANVM PERCEPTVS is what happens when machines listen to pop songs and humans transcribe and play the results, says Happy Valley Band leader David Kant

9:17am John in Bklyn:

This makes me nostalgic for Incorrect Music.

🚽

9:18am Ken From Hyde Park:

A clip of Meatwad singing: youtu.be...

9:18am Planet Tyler:

That's a great Beatles portrait. Bringing it to my tattoo guy for sure.

9:19am God:

What the devil?

9:19am Jesus:

OMG!

9:19am Moses:

Oy vey!

9:19am Devil:

Wazzup?

9:20am Noah:

Woah...

9:20am dale:

🚽

9:20am -Ken:

That'll do, An Anonymous Party

9:22am Rosie:

once found a portrait of Paul McCartney that was very similar in the wardrobe of a house I moved in to...

9:22am Devil:

Anonymous jumped the shark recently, didnt they

9:22am John in Bklyn:

Beatle portrait L to R: Greg Kihn, Bruce Springsteen, Robyn Hitchcock and Jason Schwartzman

9:22am pantz:

Sometimes Ken's show is a test of endurance, and I'm a firm believer in what doesn't make kill you only serves to make you stronger.

9:23am doctorjazz:

remember this Fudge version of Ticket To Ride, always loved it (their ponderous style works here)

9:24am dale:

peanut butter fudge is delicious as well.

🚽

9:25am Ken From Hyde Park:

"Ticket to Rhyme" would be a good alternate title.

9:26am Lizardner Dave:

Felder rules, Freedman drools.

9:28am Planet-Tyler:

That ride lasted a really really long time

9:28am rsj:

Ken!
Is the new song, called WFMU, that my alexa now plays when I tell it to play WFMU, in any way affiliated with WFMU?

🚽

9:29am Webhamster Henry:

Nice to have little Beatles Set , it recalls the days of DJ JesusPants and various Beatles Mashups from CCC and Go Home Productions.

9:30am steveo:

I'm not sure I'd ever correctly heard the lyric "Tuned to a natural E" in Rich Man before now.

9:30am The Oscar:

Years ago, a friend and I recorded a bunch of intentionally shitty Beatles tunes under the name Butcher Cover. One of these days I have to mix those down and upload them.

9:31am Sam:

Rsj, it's playing you what the Man wants you to hear.

🚽

9:32am Ken From Hyde Park:

I nominate "Meat the Beatltes" for today's show title.

9:33am Roberto:

I think Ken's Moptop Mashups was my first ever WFMU premium. It still gets fairly regular play on my iTunes.

9:34am Nick S.:

Ahem. Morin', Ken!

9:34am Nick S.:

Mornin'!

9:34am Sam:

Mmmm, moptop mashups, that sounds like something delicious

9:34am Nick S.:

Ahem.

9:36am Roberto:

I agree many of the Better Beatles' renditions are better than the Beatles'. However, without the Beatles, there would have been nothing than which to be better.

9:36am pantz:

It's rigged, Ken! Hanging chads! Fake news!

9:37am FLman:

Lies! All Lies! Felder rules!

9:37am melinda:

@Ken from hp haha

9:37am Sebastian:

Why does it still say 87 favourites? Liar, liar, pants on fiar!

9:37am Cecile:

Morning Ken!
Would you play Kann Die Liebe Sünde Sein?" by Zarah Leander. In honor of Conchita doing an impassioned version of it recently?

9:37am melinda:

That's a great Beatles portrait.

9:37am Sam:

"There's a guy doing chinups in your chest, and another tiny little man doing chinups inside another mini chest in your stomach - nothing to worry about, take some Alka Seltzer and listen to them giggle."

9:38am krissy b:

Omg Mathew Warwick I always favorite your song on the mobile app

9:38am JakeGould:

How does the mobile app log favorites if I’m not logged in?

9:38am Cecile:

Roberto, that is something to chew on.

9:38am Sam:

We're having a baaaaaarbecue

9:39am FLman:

I have a paper in my hand that has two words on it: Ken and Russians!
Ok, three words Ken and Russians!

9:39am Sebastian:

What? I wasn't listening...did I say something wrong? :)

9:39am tom from Glasgow:

@The Oscar: "Butcher Cover" is a conceptually perfect name, nice

9:39am Cecile:

I just gave you something.

9:39am specksnyder:

I thought that was Lebowski in the steak.

🚽

9:40am -Ken:

Those numbers on the web page do not count the mobile-side favorites. No more voter suppression! ALL votes must be counted!

9:40am FȶFȶ (:

Browne Hornet!!

9:41am Cecile:

Here's the YouTube link. Don't say I don't take care of you, Ken. https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&hl=en-us&ei=WLBTWYm6LeO3jwSGibrgDA&q=zarah+leander+kann+denn+liebe+sünde+sein&oq=zarah+leander+ka&gs_l=mobile-gws-serp.1.0.35i39k1j0j0i22i30k1l3.2341.3451.0.5232.4.4.0.0.0.0.341.597.1j1j0j1.3.0....0...1.1.64.mobile-gws-serp..1.3.597...0i20k1.uarH2s7vxlU

9:41am Roberto:

Mobile favorites not counted? That is some bad UX right there.

9:41am rsj:

that gifs how i felt after over consumption of kielbasa over the weekend, repalce the man with a kielbasa of course

9:41am Matt Warwick:

Where are my mobile votes Ken?!? This is RIGGED

9:41am pantz:

Felderites unite against the tyranny of Station Czar Ken Freedman!

9:42am Roberto:

Testicles de su amante jajaja

9:42am FȶFȶ (:

The ,0,0,0 part is missing in that URL, Cecile.

9:43am por?:

Love this Mexican "revoltillo" Gr8 way to wake up.

9:44am FȶFȶ (:

This Brown Whornet song and the Irvin Claw Trio one are the only songs that contain lyrical typos.

9:44am The Oscar:

@Tom I'll admit that the name/concept came first. Our best cut was a minor key version of "Octopus' Garden."

9:44am The Oscar:

Also I want to have coffee with a giant stuffed Moomin.

9:45am Cecile:

https://youtu.be/0zDL4j9haQ0

9:45am Sam:

I want to have coffee with a giant stuffed Mormon! But they don't drink coffee. Maybe just Tang then.

9:45am Roberto:

I'm the only one in the office today in my group. I'm thinking we should fill the other seats with giant stuffed animals.

9:46am Roberto:

Stepdad's Cane! And old fave.

9:46am Roberto:

Oops. An old fave.

9:46am FLman:

@Ken

9:47am Sam:

Instead of dumping our trash into landfills we should be stuffing stuffed animals with it. Then we could have the animals everywhere and nobody would ever be alone again!

🚽

9:48am Webhamster Henry:

For the 4th of July: soundcloud.com...

9:48am por?:

The Residents' "Swastikas on Parade" this Am would fit micely. Dedicate it to the orangina man.

9:48am βrian:

What, I've missed the Buddy Scott Trio?

9:48am FLman:

where are the chads @Ken? where are they? I'll tell you where they are... RUSSIA, that's where!

🚽

9:49am Webhamster Henry:

That's a Moomintroll Cafe, we need these here!

9:49am Sam:

Khlam is Russian for chad, right?

9:49am βrian:

And is that Neil Young on the Wisconsin-shaped steak?

9:52am FLman:

@Sam Ken already knew that!

9:53am pantz:

The world needs more D Boon's

9:53am MD:

GOOD MORNING ALL!!!

9:53am MD:

GIVE ME A MINUTE!

9:54am JakeGould:

This sounds like JokerFan.

9:54am Mark S:

I don't think Michael Jackson ever sang this

9:54am dfb:

that eating one - min men - is disturbing.

9:55am pantz:

fIREHOSE had one for R.E.M. that they never sang either.

9:55am Cecile:

It was for him to sing. He never availed himself of the opportunity. It might have cursed him. One never knows.

9:56am Sebastian:

Sorry, late, but still: Yay Zitronen!

9:56am John in Bklyn:

@dfb: Almost as disturbing as the stuffed animal restaurant pal!

9:57am Mark S:

Next you'll tell me that Ronald Reagan never played disco

9:57am pantz:

WEEEEEEEEEN!

9:57am FȶFȶ (:

If I'm not mistaken Hot Chocolate covered the thekenschlampen song.

9:58am steveo:

"English hits relatively literally translated" Would be a good day to understand German (like every Wednesday)

9:58am Cecile:

I'm not a ween fan, but I do love "piss up a rope"

9:59am βrian:

I'm trying to imagine the video.

9:59am Sebastian:

oh, and I just favourited #Felder via the app a second time, I really like it twice as much as anything else, so it's not cheating.

10:00am dgg:

love dean's guitar man so great

10:00am pantz:

Not a Ween fan @Cecile?! There's the door.

10:01am The Oscar:

Man, I always forget how much I like this album. Gotta bust it out soon.

10:03am Sam:

At least the Moomin put on a nice hat for the occasion.

10:04am FȶFȶ (:

Who is the artist/band playing in the background in this mic break? I don't think Ken has ever credited him/her/them.

10:04am Cecile:

Can you not buy a CD or something from the SoundCloud .

10:04am Listener142985:

album cover typo?: Greatest Tits : Die fabulösen Thekenschlampen

10:04am Wild Neil:

PEACE All. Wife and son are in Poland. Eating lotsa salad and fruits while binge watching Man in the High Castle. And doing home improvement projects. Saw some Mennonites in Wal Mart. Wanted to talk to them but thought why bother them?

10:05am Mailman Tom:

I saw Ween perform at the Warfield Theater in SF. They were one of several bands playing a benefit there, and they were the best of the bunch.

🚽

10:06am cklequ:

Are you taking requests?
I'd like more meat, if possible.

10:07am Sam:

I stopped at a convenience store in northern Maine in a largely Mennonite area, and there were like 4 young Mennonite guys just loitering in the store in a kind of menacing way talking loudly, they looked like you wouldn't want to mess with them.

10:07am βrian:

Some sizzling hot seitan would be nice.

10:08am Sam:

Yeah, who's got a piece of hot seitan for me?

10:08am cory:

i dated a mennonite once. she was nice

10:08am dale:

if he's taking requests i'd like some chicken or fish as a leaner alternative to meat

10:09am βrian:

Seitan rules the barbecue.

10:10am Sam:

I think collard greens taste way better than kale

10:10am FȶFȶ (:

Thanks, Ken! Brown Whornet is, definitely, the best band hailing from Texas. Unless there are other ones.

10:10am βrian:

How many mennonite constitutes polyandry?

10:10am Sebastian:

This is eerie, it just started raining here, right when the song started...

10:10am geoff mcq:

@cory Mennonice

10:11am βrian:

Kale seitan!

10:11am Cliff in Prague:

L U S H

10:11am Sam:

Ha, good one brian

10:13am Nick S.:

I love Lush.

10:13am Mailman Tom:

I saw Lush perform at Toad's Place in New Haven.

10:14am Listener142985:

MBV, yeh!

10:15am pantz:

The price is rizzle, my nizzle.

🚽

10:16am JtotheK:

@Ken - curious about the Clarence Carter "Stroking" tune - please tell me that it is at least in the top 10 of most clicky-starred songs... (If not, shouldn't it be?)

🚽

10:18am -Ken:

@JtotheK, it comes in around #40

🚽

10:18am -Ken:

@Roberto, mobile favorites ARE counted, they just only show up on the show by show and station-wide chart

10:18am Sem Chumbo:

G'morning, Hazmat Ken, and other dangerous minds.

10:18am Sam:

I've got some really terrible stories to tell on 7SD tonight, hopefully there will be a dedicated hotline for that again.

10:19am FȶFȶ (:

I am going to immortalize charlie's posts translating them into Spanish.

Segun mi tia, mi padre era polonio...de acuerdo a mi papa, el era un pollock..Estos pequenos detalles hacen la diferencia....Las vidas de Pollock importan.

🚽

10:20am JtotheK:

@Ken - thanks! But...40??? How disappointing. I think I may need to start some sort of "Stroking" Lobbying Firm. How do I register as such in the state of NJ?

🚽

10:21am -Ken:

@JtotheK, it has a curse in it, so it gets played less - another case of voter suppression aimed at artists of color. Which I for one, think is a bad thing. I dont understand how the Don Felder fans think that such a thing is acceptable, but there you go.

10:22am JakeGould:

So wait, if you are not logged in when using the app how are clicky hearts tracked?

10:22am Sam:

Why does everything have to be a contest?? The best songs are the ones that nobody appreciates, so who cares what the herded masses click on.

🚽

10:23am -Ken:

@Sam, have you been drinking? It's kind of early in the morning.. just sayin'

10:24am Sebastian:

I wish i could clicky-star Sam

10:24am Mark S:

It's five o'clock somewhere

10:24am FȶFȶ (:

I think Sam's post is the winner of the clicky-starred songs debate competition.

10:24am βrian:

@Sam: Imagine a field of Drinking Birds, tipping incessantly toward the keyboard.

🚽

10:25am -Ken:

@Jake - via the device ID, i THINK

10:25am por?:

Ken- You have won Nacional's dj of the month award. I wonder if Cookman's gonna invite u to speak the wonders of alt-latin at LAMC this year. U should go. Turn all those latin rockers to 'fmu

10:25am βrian:

That's just it. Sam has *not* been drinking!

10:25am JakeGould:

@βrian: When all those drinking birds bend over I can just think about one thing: Those sweet round little bird butts!

10:28am Sebastian:

lovely selection again. the amount of work I'm getting done during Ken's shows can be measured on a nanoscale, if at all

🚽

10:29am Ken From Hyde Park:

Oh, I see there's a star on the bottom of the app. Never noticed it until now. *shrug*

10:29am por?:

Ftft( - Polonio es un elemento quimico Pollonium. Polaco es Polish. Chau

🚽

10:30am JtotheK:

@Ken - and to think, Clarence Carter has had a wonderful decades-spanning career, with multiple hits (Snatching It Back, Patches, Looking For A Fox, Back Door Santa, Strokin' ... ) but is to be denied the honor of Strokin' being a top-10 clicky-starred WFMU track. Depressing. *Sigh*

10:30am Listener142985:

Crispin Cioe killing it here.

10:31am Mark S:

Who could forget Back Door Santa

10:32am FȶFȶ (:

Is there a page where we can see WFMU's Top starred songs?

10:34am FȶFȶ (:

Talking about that, you haven't played 'Duran Duran Duran' in a while, Ken.

10:34am Planet-Tyler:

I was waiting for the dingo update!

10:35am dgg:

TOT had a steak in his pocket

10:35am dgg:

a baby steak

10:35am βrian:

Todd wasn't using his "inside" voice, maybe?

10:36am Planet-Tyler:

Remember when SSD was 2 hours long...once

10:37am Sebastian:

talk German to me, baby

10:37am Mailman Tom:

Achtung !

10:37am (Murakami Whywolf))):

Dr. Lana Larilla crept into the on-call room, and immediately locked the door behind her. She definitely didn't want to be disturbed. The green scrub top that had been clinging to her like a second skin came off easily over her head, and she tossed it onto one of the twin beds in the darkened room.

She had been looking forward to this moment all day. Off came her sensible but unattractive tennis shoes as she untied the string holding her scrub pants up around her hips to reveal the nude panties below. She opened the door to the bathroom, and was hit with a blast of hot, wet steam.

Kevin Grant, one of her fellow residents, was standing facing away from her, his entire glistening backside in full view. He turned when she opened the door, and a wicked smile cracked across his handsome face. "Care to join me Larilla?" Lana was staring at his face, her head held high, mostly to avoid accidently catching a glimpse of his perfectly formed ass again. Who knows what she might do then? Unfortunately for Lana, Dr. Grant was as sexy as he was obnoxious. Despite both of them being in the middle of 15 hour night shifts, he still looked great, and she looked like shit

"What the hell, Grant?" She asked loudly, her voice echoing around the tiny bathroom.

"Why didn't you lock the door if you were gonna run around naked in here?"

🚽

10:39am JtotheK:

speaking of Andy - any truth to the rumor that his new show is an update of the Sylvester Stallone/Estelle Getty film "Stop or My Mom Will Shoot", but stretched out over 22 1-hour long episodes, starring Scott Baio and Betty White?

10:39am Planet-Tyler:

Murakami, are you quoting a Bill OReilly book?

10:40am βrian:

Sex Quarantine, I presume.

10:40am Brian C.:

Anybody heard the "new" Monks album (Hamburg recoridngs)? My shipment was delayed

10:42am Planet-Tyler:

Hey Ken, your GIF game is ON today brother!

10:44am (((Murakami Whywolf))))):

"Sex Quarantine" +Amazon 'Look Inside' +[Screenshot]+Google Goggles™+some editing

10:49am maestroso:

The Gwenno is lovely. Thanks Ken.

🚽

10:50am -Ken:

@Planet Tyler, thank you! It's taken me a while to adjust to the new GIF environment we now live in - it's taken me a while but Ive finally figured out how to still find ghood WTF ones..

10:54am FȶFȶ (:

Have you noticed all these German bands start their names with "Die"? They run out of ideas? What about 'Kill Yourself, Todliche Doris'. Or "Cease to exist, Fabulosen TheKenschlampen". Or 'Stop Living Goldenen Zitronen"?

10:58am JakeGould:

Die Die The The

10:59am dgg:

what what?

11:01am Dean:

Sounds like Iggy Pop singing for Depeche Mode.

11:02am Planet-Tyler:

@Ken, you certainly have found some WTFers!

11:02am dgg:

oh wait, I had in my head this was Duran Duran. nvm

11:03am JakeGould:

Who Who

When When
Where Where
How How
Why Why

11:03am FȶFȶ (:

PlanetTyler,

Did you notice the GIFS posted before the show started? Those were amazingly WTF as well.

11:04am jt:

These Stooges covers are scaring the hell out of me..

11:05am Dean:

Oh, I get it. It kinda was Iggy Pop singing.

11:05am David Gahan:

That's ridiculous!

11:05am Sebastian:

what the disgusting hell is going on in this gif?!

11:06am Dean:

Lemme guess. The Ridiculous Trio is Moe, Larry & Curly? Shemp?

11:06am Planet-Tyler:

@FȶFȶ (: I did!

11:07am Nate K.:

That Ridiculous Trio Stooges disc is an overlooked gem. Thanks for the spin, Ken.

11:09am jt:

Iggy is God

11:09am wait for it....:

Iggy is pretty damn on point there.

11:11am Adolf:

it is pronounced todlishé

11:12am Sebastian:

sexy Iggy is great, but on this playlist he's positioned a little too close to those gross dudes who are doing whatever with their noses...

11:12am (Murakami Whywolf))):

Got time for any Meat Puppets songs?

🚽

11:22am -Ken:

@Kenfrom HP - which Meat Puppets song you wanna hear?

11:23am Morphe:

6 hours ahead but listening Live again....

I worked with a cousin of Iggy's at Barnes-n-Noble in the 1970s. He was staying in Iggy's flat on 10th street. Iggy had his own weed/hash/ pipe from a sculpture of his penis.The substance went in the balls and a person would suck the tip. Luckily i did not have to suck his willy since I had gone clean back then. The closest I ever got to Iggy was farly frontish at Irving Plz and visting his (later richness) posh flat in the Cristadora - Iggy not present.

Thanks for spinning.....

I was trying to figure out whether this Chinese track was a cover of "Homosapien" or "Superman". Neither.

11:26am Mark S:

Nice Fall reference there

🚽

11:27am Ken From Hyde Park:

Thanks, Ken. How about "I Am A Machine" from their Mirage album?

11:31am FȶFȶ (:

Morphe,

I wonder who erected that sculpture.

11:32am Cliff in Prague:

Where are you Morphe? It's 6 hours ahead here too

11:33am FȶFȶ (:

Morphe is in a country where, listen to this Cliff, listening radio while naked is *allowed*.

11:34am (Murakami Whywolf))):

I always thought of "Take the Money and Run" as the stupid/party version of Robert Earl Keen's "The Road Goes On Forever".

11:34am McGreivey:

Homosapien: hey, this sounds like a cover of that great Chinese band Cui Jian!

11:36am Cliff in Prague:

Inconceivable!

11:36am Cecile:

My first trip to a "new wave club" was to see Pete. He sang with a tape and did Homosapien twice.

11:37am doctorjazz:

Nice set!

🚽

11:37am -Ken:

@Cecile - very sad story! Poor Pete

11:40am Cecile:

More freedom rock from my teens. Great track.

11:42am slugluv1313:

@ Cecile -- aw man -- what Ken said!
was lucky enough to see the Buzzcocks (w/The Fall opening!) at The Fast Lane in asbury Park -- maybe 1979? 1980? middle of Winter, Boardwalk was eerie and deserted, the club was barely populated :(
but, both bands were freakin' amazing -- Mark E. Smith with his back to the audience the whole time, The Buzzcocks passing out sandwiches to the mostly-apathetic audience . . .

11:43am semper_fudge:

man you are playing neil cic

11:44am semper_fudge:

has to be the funniest dude going

11:44am slugluv1313:

@ Cecile -- yes, same here, re: "Girl of My Dreams" :)
(and i still have the 12" version of "Homosapien" -- one of the best songs EVER!)

11:45am FȶFȶ (:

First time I heard about/listen to Pete Shelley. Homosapien sounded good!

11:46am Cecile:

Actually, I thought it was great at the time. He wore a white suit and seemed genuinely impressed by the crowd, even it was shitty Clutch Cargo's sound.

11:46am Cecile:

Get a beekeeper next time. The bees are endangered!

11:47am Kott:

POOR BEES ! BEES ARE NICE ! WITHOUT THEM WE CANNOT LIVE ! MURDERER !

11:48am berbo:

Were they really bees? Or actually yellowjackets. Bees are mellow. Yellowjackets are viscious.

🚽

11:48am Ken From Hyde Park:

For reasons unknown, Vassar College station WVKR was playing a documentary about mashups yesterday morning. Caught pieces of it as I drove around town. I didn't catch the name of the doc.

11:48am (Murakami Whywolf))):

Sophie Waters was a vaudeville star.

Dilute! Dilute! OK!

(Dilute less for dingoes.)

11:48am Dean:

Gonna play some B-People?

11:49am por?:

That's KARMA baby! We need more bees not less. They r extinct.

11:49am Michael 98145:

wasps are nasty

11:49am Mark S:

blame the bees

11:50am Cecile:

The beekeeper came to our neighborhood. They smoke em out

11:50am tadpoles:

Video of bees swarming in Times Square:

www.theguardian.com...

11:50am (Murakami Whywolf))):

Play the trailer for "Invasion of the Bee Girls", maybe the '70s-est movie ever made.

11:50am Cecile:

Blame me. Why not?

11:51am Cecile:

It still sounds good to me!

11:51am Cecile:

Martin Popoff is amazing.

11:52am slugluv1313:

right! bees are really mellow and YES!!! they are endangered and totally integral to our ecosystem!

11:53am Cecile:

Play Zarah for me.

11:53am (((Murakami Whywolf):

Heavy Metal was invented when Led Zeppelin and <I don't know> removed all the Black from Robert Johnson and Jimi Hendrix, respectively.

🚽

11:53am Hunterian:

I'm guessing they weren't wasps or Ken wouldn't have lived to tell the story.

11:53am Sebastian:

great Ken, looks like you've doomed planet Earth, THANKS A LOT

11:54am (((Murakami Whywolf):

More to the point, my wife loves bees, so lay off them, would you.

11:54am slugluv1313:

ah! have never seen "Invasion of the Bee Girls"! will check it out
ever see "Wasp Woman"? from 1950s or early 60s . . . a favorite *horror* film that would show up on 1970s NYC TV -- super cheese-y!

11:54am Dean:

Know what the 500th top heavy metal song of all time is? Motörhead's "Bomber." Number 485? I kid you not, "Carry On My Wayward Son," by Kansas.

11:54am steve:

to the beemobile!

11:55am FȶFȶ (:

Good job, Ken! Bees are evil. We don't want this planet to become Planet of the Bees, do we? Less honey more maple syrup, I say!

11:55am slugluv1313:

send the bees to my fire escape! where i am growing bee-friendly flowers :)

11:56am (((Murakami Whywolf):

Well, actually, Trump's dooming Planet Earth, in order to fulfill Ken's prophecy that D.T. would destroy the Republican Party.

11:56am Morphe:

I am dressed today.. Taking my son to an old school market in
Madrid. He takes photos of full sized dead animals and animal parts " I never knew a cow's/bull's tongue was so big." "Do people really eat pigs' feet?" "Why do they sell chicken feet, thier is no meat on them." He is but nearly/only 6. Ken has infected him to0 with meat ideas - He sings (small bits) of "We're Having a Barbeque."

We are more or less vegeterian - not because I worked in a butcher shop in BKLYN from the age of 12 -17. More The chemicals, hormones, Horrible lives in most cases too..etc...

til soon...

Morphe

11:57am Cliff in Prague:

Thanks so much Ken!

11:57am Sebastian:

Dankeschön, Ken, prima Sendung!

🚽

11:58am -Ken:

You Beelovers miss the point~! I used soapy water - the bees were NOT KILLED - they shuffled along to infest the next radio station down the block

11:58am (Murakami Whywolf))):

Debt-Defining Radio Stumps!

11:59am Dean:

We love dirty bees.

11:59am FȶFȶ (:

Thanks for everything, Ken! Till next episode people! And remember...BE HAAAPPPPPYYYY YOU $$*&@&@!!

11:59am Cecile:

Ken, I am glad to hear that!!!

11:59am Nick S.:

Goodbye, Ken! Have a great week!

11:59am Mark S:

And the bees were clean

🚽

11:59am -Ken:

Bye everybody!

11:59am Nick S.:

Bee Killer!

11:59am por?:

Im watching White Zombie 1932 = Ken

12:00pm Sebastian:

People apparently eat baby bees: www.thejapanguy.com...

12:03pm (Murakami Whywolf))):

Chicken Feet can be great, steamed with soy, sugar, black geans, and garlic—boiled, they can make a very good broth that isn't very chicken-y, but has great collagen for texturing sauces and other soups.

12:07pm slugluv1313:

bye Ken -- have a great week!
and yes, i am also glad to hear that the bees were not killed!
