	♥ 4:14pm Michele: Hi Jake!
	4:16pm geezerette: This is such a typical Hollywood story.
	4:16pm JakeGould: Hey Michele. What did you do when you were 7? I played with neighborhood stray cats.
	4:18pm Cecile: Did Donna ever get to meet her biological father?
	4:18pm JakeGould: Peeing down her leg. So fucked up.

	♥ 4:44pm Mike Sin: Tremendous interview here, Sheila! WFMU worth its weight in gold here.
	4:45pm djsheilab: Thank you @Mike Sin!
	4:45pm JakeGould: Excellent interview.
	♥ 4:47pm Gaylord Fields: I recently hung out with Donna on the West Coast, and she is as genuine as she comes off in Sheila's revealing interview. Yes, she's a prodigiously talented artist, but she is also a strong, caring, intelligent soul.
	4:49pm Brian Cat: My Mother used to throw away my R&B 45s. She would just go to my room when I wasn't there. She didn't like RNR and didn't tell me about the music shows on TV, except Where the action is, which was on earlier in the day. So I'm sure there were other parents like that also.
	4:51pm JakeGould: Define “virgin.”
	4:53pm JakeGould: 21 - 7 = 14 (long career)

	5:00pm P-90: This extensive, in-depth conversation with Donna is amazing! BTW, Muscle Beach Party is on Turner Classic Movies TONIGHT at 10:00 pm EST
	5:00pm CTEmpress: This is going to take a couple of listens for sure!
	♥ 5:01pm patrick321: Really glad I got off work early and could hear this. Terrific interview!
	5:01pm TehBadDr: That was a great interview Sheila and Donna! Very informative and insightful! Thank you!
	5:02pm Cecile: WOW.

	5:11pm djsheilab: @michael z Right?! And it matches perfectly with the beginning of a sunny long weekend.
	5:11pm Brian Cat: Positive interview of an abusive lifestyle. How many times have we heard of abusive show-biz lives.
	♥ 5:12pm frozen_peas: The Kurt Vile - Hope Sandoval duet is great too. I really like his singing style.
	♥ 5:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: Sorry, but it's not clear to me: Should I strive to drink more Dr. Pepper or less?
	5:14pm Rob Kopp: Courtney's two mini-2LP's are highly recommended.
	5:14pm TehBadDr: Be The Pepper!
	♥ 5:14pm Michael 98145: i only drink sugar that has passed thru a yeast
	5:14pm Dr. Pepper: @Ken From Hyde Park: more of course! How come you aren't drinking any now?
	5:15pm djsheilab: @Dr. Pepper IS HERE!
	5:15pm geezerette: yummy water candy.

	♥ 5:20pm chris: my dad loved the Dr., it was his go-to soda when he wasn't enjoying beer, a proper beverage. outstanding interview, Sheila! thanks to Ms. Loren for sharing her time with you and with us!
	5:20pm michael z: Thank you Sheila for this sunny set. Those of us who live in Houston need that positive energy. And there's a country tinge to these three songs too!
	5:21pm TehBadDr: @Big Adam the show does indeed happen once a week, or so.
	♥ 5:23pm Michael 98145: @michael z, wishing you all well -
	5:24pm geezerette: @michael z: Glad you survived, hope damage was minimal, everyone safe and dry.

	5:25pm EarlyMorninginSeoul: @djsheilab I was out at a flea market in Seoul buying some old records. I found one by an artist named 윤정하 (Yun Jung Ha) from 1978 and picked it up right away. On the album she covered "I've Told Every Little Star" by Linda Scott!
	5:28pm michael z: Thank you all. As always it's the poor and most vulnerable who get hurt most. But Sheila takes us all higher!
	5:28pm geezerette: JtotheK, love Della Reese.
	♥ 5:30pm JtotheK: @geezerette - DR has some really great 45s, and her take on 'very good year' is another one of them... great stuff.

	♥ 5:38pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hahaha ... lava lamps!
	5:38pm Eddie Caffrey: Great to know friday evening listening(GMT) will continue to be a very good listen!
	5:38pm Brian Cat: @djsheilab I missed the time change announcement, can you please repeat it? A widow's peak is when people's hair comes to a point in the front of the head. It's called a widow's peak. They've got it so it says "speak."
	5:39pm EarlyMorninginSeoul: wait, the show will change its airtime?
	5:41pm djsheilab: No no....no change to this show's time. The new fall/ winter schedule has been announced + I am in the same time slot—Fridays 3pm-6pm EST.

	5:50pm spacecowboy: ill just come out and say it-- i hated most of the eighties stuff with the white hot intensity of one thousand suns
	5:50pm seth from muddy creek: It's a cruel, cruel September
	♥ 5:50pm listener james from westwood: As a Dukes of Hazzard watcher back in my yute, I dug the ersatz references to Boss Hogg and Roscoe P. Coltrane in the video to this track.
	5:53pm geezerette: Thanks,Sheila!

	3:28pm Brian Cat: Interesting sounds, Sheila B., I've been working on a Dance pop tune all week, which tends to get monotonous after a while so this set is really opening up the brain corridors.
	3:32pm Connie T. Empress: BLUSH!!!!! I can tune in while working now instead of lurking in the archives. Looking forward to Donna Loren #idol
	3:35pm Cecile: I like beat matching if it tells a story.

	4:14pm JakeGould: Cool interview but man, 7 years old? That’s screwed up.
	♥ 4:14pm Michele: Yeah this is intense
	♥ 4:14pm Michele: Hi Jake!
	4:16pm geezerette: This is such a typical Hollywood story.
	4:16pm JakeGould: Hey Michele. What did you do when you were 7? I played with neighborhood stray cats.
	4:18pm Cecile: Did Donna ever get to meet her biological father?
	4:18pm JakeGould: Peeing down her leg. So fucked up.

	4:45pm JakeGould: Excellent interview.
	♥ 4:47pm Gaylord Fields: I recently hung out with Donna on the West Coast, and she is as genuine as she comes off in Sheila's revealing interview. Yes, she's a prodigiously talented artist, but she is also a strong, caring, intelligent soul.
	4:49pm Brian Cat: My Mother used to throw away my R&B 45s. She would just go to my room when I wasn't there. She didn't like RNR and didn't tell me about the music shows on TV, except Where the action is, which was on earlier in the day. So I'm sure there were other parents like that also.
	4:51pm JakeGould: Define “virgin.”
	4:53pm JakeGould: 21 - 7 = 14 (long career)

	5:00pm CTEmpress: This is going to take a couple of listens for sure!
	♥ 5:01pm patrick321: Really glad I got off work early and could hear this. Terrific interview!
	5:01pm TehBadDr: That was a great interview Sheila and Donna! Very informative and insightful! Thank you!

	5:11pm Brian Cat: Positive interview of an abusive lifestyle. How many times have we heard of abusive show-biz lives.
	♥ 5:12pm frozen_peas: The Kurt Vile - Hope Sandoval duet is great too. I really like his singing style.
	♥ 5:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: Sorry, but it's not clear to me: Should I strive to drink more Dr. Pepper or less?
	5:14pm Rob Kopp: Courtney's two mini-2LP's are highly recommended.
	5:14pm TehBadDr: Be The Pepper!
	♥ 5:14pm Michael 98145: i only drink sugar that has passed thru a yeast
	5:14pm Dr. Pepper: @Ken From Hyde Park: more of course! How come you aren't drinking any now?
	5:15pm djsheilab: @Dr. Pepper IS HERE!

	♥ 5:20pm chris: my dad loved the Dr., it was his go-to soda when he wasn't enjoying beer, a proper beverage. outstanding interview, Sheila! thanks to Ms. Loren for sharing her time with you and with us!
	5:20pm michael z: Thank you Sheila for this sunny set. Those of us who live in Houston need that positive energy. And there's a country tinge to these three songs too!
	5:21pm TehBadDr: @Big Adam the show does indeed happen once a week, or so.
	♥ 5:23pm Michael 98145: @michael z, wishing you all well -
	5:24pm geezerette: @michael z: Glad you survived, hope damage was minimal, everyone safe and dry.

	5:28pm geezerette: JtotheK, love Della Reese.

	♥ 5:38pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hahaha ... lava lamps!
	5:38pm Eddie Caffrey: Great to know friday evening listening(GMT) will continue to be a very good listen!
	5:38pm Brian Cat: @djsheilab I missed the time change announcement, can you please repeat it? A widow's peak is when people's hair comes to a point in the front of the head. It's called a widow's peak. They've got it so it says "speak."
	5:39pm EarlyMorninginSeoul: wait, the show will change its airtime?
	5:41pm djsheilab: No no....no change to this show's time. The new fall/ winter schedule has been announced + I am in the same time slot—Fridays 3pm-6pm EST.

	5:50pm seth from muddy creek: It's a cruel, cruel September
	♥ 5:50pm listener james from westwood: As a Dukes of Hazzard watcher back in my yute, I dug the ersatz references to Boss Hogg and Roscoe P. Coltrane in the video to this track.
