Marbloid Reconstruction: Ken's show

Listener comments!

♥ 6:07am -Ken:

Morning all!

Hey, Ken! Finally getting some rain up here in Buffalo. The ground is cracked its so dry. By the way, what ever happened with the traffic cones, are they all gone now?

♥ 7:35am -Ken:

Hi Neil, Yes, the Feds came and took my traffic cones away.

7:42am Ғҩ Ғҩ (:

Hello, Ken, Wild Neil!

Great GIFs! Ken, you are an expert in telling which drug people are on over the phone (remember that SSD radio show?) but can you tell just by looking at the GIF which drug is that girl from the failed headstand on? It can't be alcohol, right?

♥ 7:46am -Ken:

I'd say plain old weed.

7:47am Listener Robert:

Let's take a shot, see if we can fish some meaning out with refinement.. Aw, I could do this while standing on my hands, the dominoes just fall in place, Climbing the pole of life is totally tubular, and from down here everything looks big. But no need to bang your head against the wall trying to decipher a word like "marbloid", when you can just dance around it in a circle, far and near. There are many ways to set things in motion.

7:51am Listener Robert:

Who captioned that GIF with the head moving over the water "refineries_wtf"? I don't think there are any refineries in it. In the background I think those are either dry dock or shiploading facilities.

7:55am Listener Robert:

The really serious couple in the Ferrand among the shooters at the carnival is hilarious, though.

8:23am Wild Neil||Peace All:

I think shooting booths used to use real ammo like .22 caliber bullets. I don't think there were any mass shootings back in the 30's at county fairs either. .22 shorts, not very noisy. Usually pump action rifles chained to the counter.

♥ 8:47am Ken From Hyde Park:

Good morning, ye GIF fans. Looking forward to the garbecue next Wednesday. I don't know if I should bring donuts, pickles or aloe vera.

♥ 8:49am -Ken:

Please bring moist toilettes but make sure they have the French spelling. TOILETTES

8:51am cory:

morning all

9:00am Ғҩ Ғҩ (:

Hey, cory, Ken from HP. Listener Robert!

Thanks, Ken. I did not know weed shuts down your reflexes. I'm the opposite of you when it comes to drug knowledge.

Any chance of a live transmission of the garbecue?

9:02am northguineahills:

lingettes humides?

♥ 9:04am geoff mcq:

Morning Ken! Morning non-Kens! Greetings all!

9:04am northguineahills:

@Wild Neil: hard to do much damage w/ a pump action short .22, but I'm pretty sure I'd find a way to hurt myself all the same (injuring myself doing the mundane seems to be my specialty).

9:05am Ғҩ Ғҩ (:

I think they are spelled TOILETTÊTRERIEAUX.

9:05am ben abs:

Gorden Morgen Alles

9:10am Ғҩ Ғҩ (:

Great Meat Puppets song which reminded me: Ken, people...You are all my daughters!

9:11am 1,000 crunches:

Right on....

♥ 9:11am Ken From Hyde Park:

Quadron is Quintron without the tambourine player?

9:12am Ғҩ Ғҩ (:

Where are all my Germans comment strikers?! Are you all ready for the Germany-South Korea match?

I guess I will receive no answer.

♥ 9:12am melinda:

hi all

9:12am wfmu listener phillip:

Good Morning KEN. snd fellow Kennites.

9:14am wfmu listener phillip:

im in st barnbus hosp. waiting for the CAT scan results of my liver.

♥ 9:14am Sem:

Greets, SMKen, Hazmat enthusiasts, bathtub meth makers, freon huffers, old school airplane glue folk, and all.

♥ 9:15am melinda:

Resist moist toilets!

♥ 9:15am -Ken:

Morning everybody!

9:15am 1,000 crunches:

Germany -550 on the morning money line.

♥ 9:16am steveo:

hi ken, ev'ryone; i hope your results are positive, phillip

9:16am Diezel Tea:

Privyet axperner yev axchikner@ from hot and sunny Yerevan, ya freaks! How's everybody doing today?

♥ 9:16am -Ken:

Hi Philip - Hang in there, at least its a good hospital and its in range of WFMU

9:20am Wild Neil||Peace All:

@NGH-at point blank range a .22 to the head can kill a dude. I think I saw that in a movie, it was a pro hit.

♥ 9:20am N.A.R.D.:

That's terrific, Philip, when my cat sees liver, he just knocks it on the floor

9:21am 1,000 crunches:

I’ll do a whippet (nitrous, not the dog breed) every time I hear a song about hell.

9:23am Diezel Tea:

@N.A.R.D. how did your homemade lahmajun turn out?)))

9:23am wfmu listener phillip:

thanks KEN:) i already have some good news the ultrasound says the tumor shrunk by 3 milimeters.

♥ 9:25am N.A.R.D.:

@Diezel Tea, it turned out delicious! I was so angry when my brother in law finished it while I was at work the next day. I wanted the leftovers.

9:25am orpheusviking:

I would like to request "see you in hell my friend" by Grim Reaper, in honor of 1,000 crunches noble journey

♥ 9:26am melinda:

Good to hear, Phillip!

♥ 9:26am N.A.R.D.:

Whippet = Dog Breed
Whipit = not a dog breed

Just for future reference

♥ 9:30am N.A.R.D.:

Do you think the cat ate those 3 millimeters? That's all my cat has to eat before he thinks the bowl is empty.

9:31am Marc Francis:

This Amber Arcades songs is a CHOOOOOOOON!

♥ 9:31am justoffthebeach:

Speaking of range, is there a map of the listening are of the station? How's reception in Harlem, particularly the west side of it?

9:32am cory:

my cat would just drag it under the table and growl at anyone that walks by

9:32am cory:

then the loud licking would start

9:34am dug:

go clay!

9:34am Diezel Tea:

Wash your hands soon, Ken.

9:34am Vincent Nifigance:

That's great news.

9:34am Vincent Nifigance:

They tune in for airborne chairs, Ken.

♥ 9:35am G:

SH*TTY FLUTE!

♥ 9:35am N.A.R.D.:

Muppet Christ?

9:35am exile-on-hicks-st:

I did find it odd that I was able to keep the radio on ‘FMU during Ken’s show with the kids in the car...

9:36am James Peter:

I feel very at home being driven away from things

9:36am wfmu listener phillip:

im just happy the doctor said no surgery! surgery is of the table.

♥ 9:36am Ike:

@justoffthebeach, western side of all of Manhattan should be good incl. Harlem, esp. if you have a basic dipole antenna or something like that. And the pirates aren't very close by to interfere (they're all in the outer boroughs & Jersey).

♥ 9:37am Ken From Hyde Park:

For an experiment, you can see if wooden train whistles retain or repel listeners. Same thing with nose flutes.

9:38am wfmu listener phillip:

hospital food here at st barnbus is pretty good! hope i can stay till tomorrow morning

♥ 9:38am ⓘⓚⓔ:

I'm listening at 91.1 FM right now Ken, so you won't see me in your stats. I'll let you know if something drives me away so you can add me to your numbers.

9:40am northguineahills:

@Wild Neil: A hammer at point blank range in the head can kill a person too... ;)

9:41am Santos L Halper:

Howdy SMKen! Been enjoying listening live and local the past 3 days. Passing by JC now headed back to the southlands, so will be contributing to the stream stats again soon. Ciao!

9:42am Beast of Boonton:

Maybe some Poopy Flute is in order

♥ 9:42am Asheville Jon:

this is a nice song.

♥ 9:43am -Ken:

1000 crunches - you owe us a whippit

9:44am Diezel Tea:

@-Ken I'm out of WFMU stickers. Can y'all mail me some? If not, then Gnaw (the band) is way cooler than WFMU, because they mailed me an envelope of their rat stickers last year. Or two years ago. Yeah, 2 years ago.

9:45am Beast of Boonton:

You know, the kind of music you don't want on your radio if you are in a car wreck

9:45am 1,000 crunches:

Ken - I’m filling the balloon now......

9:46am 1,000 crunches:

I’m filling my lungs now....

9:47am 1,000 crunches:

Oh yeah.....

9:47am 1,000 crunches:

Yellow moons....
Pinks stars....
Bitcoin...

9:48am 1,000 crunches:

Goat noises....

♥ 9:48am Hugo (NL):

This was the filter right?

9:48am Rev. Turnip Druid:

oh damn.. just saw something about Homeboy being reissued.
...one step closer to fulfilling this hopelessly impossible Don Cherry completism thing....

9:49am Vincent Nifigance:

I was wondering where this song had gone.

9:50am Vincent Nifigance:

Sounds like Denise Warwick...

9:50am Vincent Nifigance:

I mean Debbie, Debbie Warwick.

9:52am Andy (DC):

This is the first time I have heard this song, and I love it. (Thanks WFMU!) Could someone fill me in on Saint Black and Alex?

9:53am Vincent Nifigance:

Little, if anything is known about him/them.

9:54am thedunkel:

good morning ken!

9:56am ben abs:

f*ckin impossible to google as well. Could only find one blog article

9:57am Andy (DC):

Ken, can you tell us about the Saint Black recording?

♥ 9:57am Webhamster Henry:

More Owada please.

9:58am Vincent Nifigance:

Is this Martin Creed?

♥ 9:59am N.A.R.D.:

OH MY GOD HE'S STILL COUNTING! I didn't see that coming!!

9:59am thedunkel:

finally i song where i know the lyrics

♥ 10:00am Alfredo Garcia:

good charles bernstein cover.

♥ 10:00am Stanley:

It's such a good feeling to see a fellow countryman can count to 200.

10:00am kev:

this will drive them away,not me tho

♥ 10:04am Nymor:

wrt a couple of the dancing gifs - a 7min montage of dancing from nearly 300 movies can be found on vimeo at vimeo.com...

10:05am northguineahills:

What the good Rev said!

♥ 10:06am Planet Tyler:

Good morning Ken and Glisteners. I missed Clay's show today! No faerie dust today :(

♥ 10:06am steveo:

♥ 10:06am Planet Tyler:

I just tuned in - that's a plus one for you Ken

♥ 10:06am Lizardner Dave:

Listening on 91.9 so not counted anyway

10:07am Lane in Jcity:

You'll never cut me down!! Good morning all

♥ 10:07am bob ross had a pet squirrel named peapod:

I joined the party because of the whale noises. My mother was a whale.

♥ 10:07am N.A.R.D.:

I'm streaming, but I haven't been listening since the Hazmat report...

♥ 10:08am steveo:

oh, whale-ly?

10:10am orpheusviking:

how about Killing Joke = hosannahs from the basements of hell?

10:11am Vincent Nifigance:

Are there any songs about barbecues you might be able to play, Ken?

10:11am James Peter:

mmmm, Star Crunch

10:11am lane:

will there be lil Debbie cakes wrapped in foil / marinated on said grill?

10:12am Wild Neil||Peace All:

My boss on the first day of work said "Don't touch your female co-worker". I thought that was odd. Did a previous co-worker touch her without permission?

♥ 10:12am BennettCap:

The Screaming Wieners play live at the July 4 barbecue.

♥ 10:12am bob ross had a pet squirrel named peapod:

Okay fine she was just a nurse shark. are you happy now.

♥ 10:12am Webhamster Henry:

Bring Wash'n Dri s!

10:12am Vincent Nifigance:

Ken just did the same thing as Debbie did yesterday - Dwain Twain.

♥ 10:14am Sem:

I thought Timothy Leary was dead?

♥ 10:14am Matt Fiveash:

Hey Ken- The YLT Gilligan's Island-esque 3 hour tour is actually tomorrow, not tonight. At least I hope so, I can't go tonight...

♥ 10:17am Planet Tyler:

@Wild Neil - Yes, probably

10:18am mary:

Ann Magnuson-thank you for being

10:18am thatpatsmith:

Hanging in, hanging on, for dear life.

10:19am Eggmaniac:

Frank Balesteri is mentioned on air and no one comments on The Vanilla Bean? You shoulda been there.

10:20am Mailman Tom:

Mr. Toad's Wild Ride!

♥ 10:20am bob ross had a pet squirrel named peapod:

I touched a co-worker in 2004. She took care of it right then and there and I never touched one again.

♥ 10:23am N.A.R.D.:

Ken, I'd like to request anything by The Cheese in honor of Planters announcing the return of Cheez Balls

♥ 10:24am bob ross had a pet squirrel named peapod:

there will be no more personal admissions today. That's less bad than it sounds but if I try to explain it now it will sound like I'm trying to make it sound less bad than it sounds. GOAT ALARM GOAT ALARM

♥ 10:26am Webhamster Henry:

Ann Magnuson should be a spokesperson for ... something.

10:28am Carlo:

How’s that streaming level lookin now?

10:28am berbo:

One of our local (Madison, WI) brewpubs has a beer called "Diamond Star Halo".

♥ 10:29am dale:

this reminds me of the fairy tale on barry adamson's oedipus schmoedipus.

♥ 10:29am stalvey:

Last person out, light switch is on left. Thank you.

♥ 10:30am N.A.R.D.:

I think she'd be a great spokesperson for Planter's Cheez Balls, @Webmaster Henry

10:30am jan:

@Eggmaniac- The Bean, I was there...a great radio personality that I discovered soon after moving to NYC from L.I.
He is missed. As long as we are on the topic of dead djs- Dan Ingram- now gone. An tristate radio personality of WABC AM radio in the 60s and 70s.

10:30am berbo:

The late Richard Evans Schultes (author of the golden guide book) was an amazing guy.

♥ 10:32am bob ross had a pet squirrel named peapod:

go vegan folks

♥ 10:33am BennettCap:

A Screaming Wiener!!

10:33am duke:

Remember kids, never eat hotdogs after dropping acid.

♥ 10:33am Ken From Hyde Park:

Spoiler alert: it's the devil's hot dog!

10:34am Roberto:

Well, meat is murder after all.

10:34am 1,000 crunches:

@berbo - I’m in Madison, Wi also.

Representing fly over land......

♥ 10:34am Brian C.:

Hot dog is murder!

♥ 10:34am N.A.R.D.:

I hate when my hot dog starts screaming and then it turns out that it wasn't a hot dog at all, and you have to murder it to keep it from talking

10:35am Wild Neil||Peace All:

Did I hear that right:she murdered a hot dog? Did she confess to the police?

♥ 10:35am BennettCap:

Veggie dogs scream quietly.

♥ 10:36am N.A.R.D.:

Veggie dogs are more polite in that way

♥ 10:39am ɨkɛ:

Don't do drugs, kids -- they might turn you into... GASP! A... a... a VEGETARIAN!

10:41am kev:

Mexican radio has BBQ iguana

♥ 10:43am MD:

Hell-o....Mr Watson come quickly!!!!

10:44am FLman:

Love me some Big Blood!

10:44am Hi from Holland:

Scott Williams played Big Blood earlier this week - nice tunes!

♥ 10:48am Ken From Hyde Park:

People who left the station at Hot Dog time will be so sorry they missed Big Blood.

♥ 10:50am Ken From Hyde Park:

Clicking on St-37 GIF turns its background to white. How is that possible?

10:51am Hi from Holland:

Its magic!

♥ 10:52am The Oscar:

Been too busy to comment, but I wanted to make sure that it’s known that I’m signing off to attend a long stupid meeting, and not because of the music. I don’t want to mess with the data.

10:55am Hi from Holland:

true magic as the St-37 image is changed before our eyes - still has a white background

11:00am Colin & Dani in Durham, uk:

YES MICHELE

11:05am zzz:

yaaaay naked city!

11:05am Ғҩ Ғҩ (:

Could somebody provides me with a summary of what we have heard so far because I'm watching the World Cup? You can whistle 10 second bits of each song played to get me an idea of what I've missed. Thanks.

11:06am Rev. Turnip Druid:

jeezus. haven't heard the naked city LP in a dog's age..

11:08am zzz:

ditto. real treat

11:09am GWTG:

I'm suddenly reminded of the Dog Faced Hermans. Im not sure why.

♥ 11:12am ɨkɛ:

Yup, this is getting the job done.

King of Tangents more like it

11:34am Gordon FM:

as pertainin te J&H Productions?

♥ 11:39am bob ross had a pet squirrel named peapod:

perhaps lots of people have moms who are whales.

11:40am Evan From Seattle:

I've told so many people "you've got to hear the humpback whale on wfmu" so many times and so often that the words have lost all meaning.

♥ 11:40am listener Rey:

If you can't throw your body at the machine, at least rage against it

♥ 11:41am bob ross had a pet squirrel named peapod:

will there be LSD?

11:41am Spankyflop:

I must have just missed the whale sounds. I'm the guy who shows up to the party just after the host plays the party-clearing record.

♥ 11:41am bob ross had a pet squirrel named peapod:

to go with the hotdogs I mean

11:41am Ғҩ Ғҩ (:

Germany is about to get kicked out of the World Cup (frist time since 1938)! Too much drama here! Please 10 second song summary of the show so far. thanks

11:51am Beast of Boonton:

no goat-alarms today

11:51am Wild Neil||Peace All:

@Fofo-kicked out? Why??
By the way my wife said "It's good you didn't buy World Cup for our Roku because Poland is the worst team in the world right now. They even scored a goal on themselves!"

11:51am Spaceman One:

This sounds like Times New Viking!

11:52am weiterso:

out out out

11:53am Ғҩ Ғҩ (:

1 minute to go and Germany is OUT of the first round of the World Cup since 1938! South Korea 1 - Germany 0. THEY ARE OUT!
MY CONDOLENCES TO weiterso, Sebastian, Guido"!

11:53am Wild Neil||Peace All:

Good! GLAD Germany is out. They can go jump in a lake.

11:54am ben abs:

they didn't react well last time....

11:54am weiterso:

putin hacked them, for sure

11:54am Wild Neil||Peace All:

Yeah, are they going to attack Poland now in September of next year?

11:55am ben abs:

2-0 korea!!!

11:57am Aaron in Neukölln:

Well, fireworks are being set off in my neighborhood in Berlin. Usually only happens when Germany win or score a goal. I'd think the tears of defeat would dampen the fuses.

11:58am Jeff Moore:

When I heard the little riff early in this Snail song, I thought it would be the white shoes black hat song.

♥ 11:58am steveo:

Von Hayes once hit two home runs in an inning in the 90s. Beat the Mets 26-7. Thanks Ken.

♥ 11:59am bob ross had a pet squirrel named peapod:

Dancin' Ken

12:00pm Ғҩ Ғҩ (:

What a humillation! South Korea's last goal is such a major scheiße for the Germans! This is the best World Cup ever according to everybody! Go watch it and you might even convert!

Anyway, back to Ken's world. What did I miss?

12:03pm bobo:

Sorry i'm late been watching football! Can I request a song please?
