♥ 6:02pm queems:

6:03pm khd:

go to hell

♥ 6:03pm dale:

the state of the station is new jersey.
the state of the station is a gas.
the state of the station is manic.
the state of the station is unfinished.

♥ 6:03pm Karen in Sleepy Hollow:

Tell it like it is Ken, we can handle it.

6:03pm Linda Lee:

looking forward to insight & gossip.

♥ 6:03pm Lizardner Dave:

We're having a state of the station for you. There's lots of hot news for you. Ken talks on the microphone. Neu plays in the background oh groan.

♥ 6:04pm adampsyche:

hi hi hi all!

6:04pm Anthony!:

Format change. Top 40 and conservative talk radio.

♥ 6:04pm queems:

double down on the yakety sax

6:04pm upstate sean:

Give it to us straight, Ken

6:05pm upstate sean:

There should be good show insurance

♥ 6:05pm queems:

ok, i agree with appraiser sam on that one

6:05pm upstate sean:

Just kidding:)

6:06pm Carmichael:

This news is yuge. YUGE.

♥ 6:06pm queems:

but last week's show was definitely bad

6:06pm khd:

np, i'm sure i'm gonna collect some day

6:06pm Anthony!:

The Special Counsel found that WFMU was not truthful to the FBI and is guilty of a process crime.

6:07pm khd:

the fatal flaw with bad show insurance is that i usually tune out if it's a bad show and don't listen to the whole thing to make sure it's bad

♥ 6:07pm adampsyche:

only a liz berg return can soothe my heart

6:08pm Linda Lee:

@khd ~ not a problem if you're not Sam the Appraiser!

♥ 6:09pm Lizardner Dave:

I work in the Times Square area and oddly enough I listen at 91.8 on my radio because it comes in better.

♥ 6:09pm dale:

when i lived in brooklyn there were lot's of cb pirates, but i never heard fm pirates with their bad language and blousy sleeves and eye patches.

6:12pm Joe:

How giving the pirates their own time slot?

♥ 6:12pm Buffalo's Tom:

Can the new stream just be Yakety Sax on a loop?

6:12pm Anthony!:

Hey Ken how about more Southern Rock. More Marshal Tucker Band.

♥ 6:12pm adampsyche:

ffffffffffffff equals "i lose it every time keep it up"

♥ 6:12pm dale:

did ken say answering food and making phones?

6:12pm Other John From Madison:

Question for Ken: What did Andy do this time? State of the Station usually means Andy screwed something up.

6:13pm Linda Lee:

If someone can just find the Matzoh, then I am sure some rich uncle can pay $250,000+ for it so the Passover seder can continue.

♥ 6:16pm dale:

two years ago i was double billed for several months and did't pick up on it (my bad). joe mcgasko was willing to reimburse me even though he didn't have to and i said no, just stop the madness. he was very gracious.

♥ 6:16pm dale:

swag for life though does hold the carrot out there

♥ 6:25pm Tommy in Neversink:

Ken....has FMU ever courted celebrity musicians ...like Springsteen for example , to donate big bucks. It seems some on them would be interested and want to support the station's mission

6:26pm Linda Lee:

@dale ~ leaky ceiling. not necessarily another bathroom.

6:26pm Carmichael:

Cash Weenies. Really really!

6:27pm Jeff Moore:

One thing I want to suggest to all listeners who value audio fidelity is:

Check out the 128k AAC stream! To my ears it sounds noticeably better than the 128k MP3 stream (especially when dealing with quick impulses like record ticks and pops) while using the same bandwidth as the MP3 stream.

(We upped the AAC bitrate within the last year - instead of trying to match MP3 quality at lower bandwidth, we're now trying to offer higher quality at the same bandwidth.)

6:27pm JakeGould:

Wonder what will be build on the land.

6:27pm Listening Out There:

In the parking lot, will FMU have a Trump Tower annex?

6:28pm upstate sean:

Where will you park, or is that a silly question

♥ 6:28pm adampsyche:

an endowment is a good idea, my wife runs non profits and that's where it's at

♥ 6:30pm PMD:

I remember when she won the contest at 7SD

6:30pm I AM:

♥ 6:33pm PMD:

Why don't you sell a show to a celebrity? Rather than have that person follow all the regular rules. Jack White can pay $250k to work for free. Or that famous person interviewed in the documentary.

Sad news about BAI and Pacifica

♥ 6:37pm dale:

loved when jonesy and xray had scelsa on. he should come back for a talk show. he's seen so much modern music history.

♥ 6:37pm Buffalo's Tom:

That's right @TDK60

6:38pm noel:

I used to listen to Scelsa Fass and Post back then.

6:38pm TDK60:

That's right, Ken. Post, Josephson, Fass, etc. *Both* BAI and FMU helped evolve free form.

♥ 6:38pm melinda:

The wiki entry on WBAI makes WFMU's problems seem quite tame. Sad that it has gone off the rails.

6:39pm fruitcakelady:

Instead of Swag for life -- please consider "Free Form Forever". The emotional connection to funding something with purpose is not about what we get in return in terms of swag, it is about what we all support such as freedom of thought and ideas.

6:39pm Doobois:

Has anyone suggested Monthly Nuts?

6:39pm Carlyle Marc:

@melinda- I painted that but didn't get a chance to draw on it.
