	12:02pm Matt from New Orleans: Designated pinch hitter
	12:02pm Funky16Corners: Hey Matt! No, not as of yet. I need to sleep sometime.
	12:04pm Matt from New Orleans: I’ve seen Ikebe Shakedown twice and both were really fun shows
	12:05pm Funky16Corners: I like their stuff a lot
	12:05pm Sem: Hey, hey, it's Larry G once again. Greets, Mr. DJ, and hello, testifiers...no taking the 5th, OK?

	12:06pm chresti: Hey testifiers, Larry!
	12:06pm Matt from New Orleans: Hi Parq and Sem. Hope everyone has a good day so far.
	12:06pm Matt from New Orleans: Chresti too!
	12:07pm Funky16Corners: Hey Chresti!
	12:08pm Parq: Great jubilant sound this B.A.D. has.
	12:08pm Cal Zone!: LG! Cal in the house! LGM!
	12:08pm Funky16Corners: Oh yeah, big record for me right after high school
	12:08pm Parq: Hi, Matt. My day's just getting off the ground; I'm kind of a night owl.
	12:09pm Parq: I remember April as a particularly nice time for New Orleans. Hope its a great day there today.
	12:09pm Funky16Corners: Cal!
	12:11pm Franco Twinkie: Hey now!
	12:11pm Funky16Corners: Franco!
	12:12pm rw: Testify!: the Whatever edition!
	12:13pm Funky16Corners: Hey rw!
	12:14pm Funky16Corners: Electronic beats for your feets (and your heads)
	12:17pm Matt from New Orleans: It’s beautiful here today. I’m heading out to ride my bike so I’ll be listening but not on the board. Have a great day everyone.
	12:17pm Franco Twinkie: I know you've moved on to the tuna melts, but we're still on the buttered toast.
	12:18pm Funky16Corners: Have a good ride, Matt!
	12:18pm Funky16Corners: @Franco - It's breakfast-ish time for you guys. My coffee is already doing its job.
	12:19pm Funky16Corners: I was out this morning and it was nice, if a bit chilly. The pollen is already starting, too (ugh).
	12:19pm Boomer: It's Wednesday my dudes ahhhhh!
	12:20pm Funky16Corners: Hey Boomer!
	12:20pm Franco Twinkie: That's what I mean, Larry. Your're jammin' hard, and we're still in stumbling around mode.
	12:20pm Boomer: Aloha
	12:21pm Funky16Corners: @Franco - This'll get your heart started!
	12:24pm Cal Zone!: I did radio promo for UDS years ago!
	12:24pm Funky16Corners: No shit? I love these guys.
	12:26pm Parq: Larry, the pollen around my neighborhood park this morning was visible. Even my dog sneezed.
	12:26pm Erica: Sorry I'm late Larry. I was trying to listen to another radio show but I don't think it's on today. I'll have to make up the first 20 minutes of this show later. Also, sorry for not tuning in to your Saturday fill-in show as I had to go out that day.
	12:26pm Franco Twinkie: Pollen! don't even talk about pollen. Since we had such a wet winter here, the plants and trees are all in overdrive. I'm miserable. My lungs are itchy and I have a nasty cough.
	12:27pm Funky16Corners: Hey Erica! No worries! Glad you're here now.
	12:28pm Funky16Corners: @Parq & Franco - I had my first yearly experience of washing the pollen off the windshield yesterday. Just had to open a fresh box of tissues. Not looking forward to peak pollen AT ALL.
	12:33pm Parq: I'm lucky in that I don't have acute hay fever, but when it's as bad as it is now -- I mean clouds of plant residue blowing around in the air -- well, good luck to anybody out there.
	12:33pm Franco Twinkie: Where do live, Parq?
	12:34pm Parq: Lower midtown Manhattan, Flatiron/Gramercy country.
	12:34pm Franco Twinkie: Is that a Johnny Marr loop?
	12:35pm Funky16Corners: It is indeed!
	12:36pm Funky16Corners: Here in Central-bordering on South Jersey we are not only surrounded by trees, but also about 20 miles away from a raging forest fire that had everything smelling like smoke over the weekend with ash falling from the sky like snow flurries
	12:37pm Franco Twinkie: Funny, I've been in NYC in springtime and never seen the pollen clouds. I thought all that cement was a buffer. I guess I'm wrong.
	12:38pm Erica: This song samples The Smiths I think.
	12:39pm Funky16Corners: It does, Erica
	12:44pm Parq: Frankie, I was right alongside one of the neighborhood parks, which is full of flowering trees. Nuff said.
	12:45pm Franco Twinkie: Did I hear this right, or are my ears full of pollen: You're taking the night off, no Testify?
	12:46pm Funky16Corners: No, I'll be here at 10.
	12:46pm Funky16Corners: I have to clean the house and make dinner, but I'll be back!
	12:46pm Franco Twinkie: Good! What's on tap?
	12:47pm Erica: Larry is on fire recently, 2 Testify fill-in shows as well as F16C on Mondays the main Testify show at 10 and the Iron Leg Show on Saturdays.
	12:47pm Funky16Corners: @Franco - UK psyche, a bunch of Syd Barrett-era Pink Floyd and some jazz to cool things down
	12:48pm Erica: I'd tune in to his other shows but they come on at times where I'm either watching a show, going out or have to shower. :(
	12:48pm Funky16Corners: @Erica - I am a veritable radio machine!
	12:48pm Franco Twinkie: Oh yeah!
	12:50pm Erica: I'll say you are Larry. Also, I like the loungey feel of this song.
	12:52pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, this is a favorite album of mine. Towa Tei was the DJ in Dee-Lite, and his use of samples and beats is really imaginative and stylish. Believe it or not there's an Ike and Tina Turner sample in this one. Good headphones music.
	12:57pm Carmichael: Heya Larry and fans. I'm testifying that it is Richard Thompson's birthday today.
	12:58pm Funky16Corners: Hey Carmichael!
	12:58pm Funky16Corners: Cut Chemist did this live with one turntable, a loop pedal and a mixer (and a pile of African records)!
	1:00pm Erica: Hi Carmichael.
	1:05pm Franco Twinkie: Chupacabra- A brain sucking goat monster.
	1:07pm Erica: Speaking of Deee-lite, I have their 3rd final album Dewdrops in the Garden which I never got to listen to yet. I've been putting if off for a while.
	1:08pm david w: Hello Larry and all! Aboard for the afternoon cruise!
	1:09pm Funky16Corners: Hi David!
	1:24pm Erica: Ooh I remember this one.
	1:26pm joe: Sorry I got hung up Duane just did a killer tribute to Walter Gibbons.
	1:26pm Funky16Corners: @Erica - With the sample of Rickie Lee Jones that she was NOT happy about.
	1:26pm Funky16Corners: Hey Joe!
	1:27pm Andrew Waterloo: probably the only thing keeping Rickie Lee Jones in the cultural consciousness
	1:27pm Erica: That was Rickie Lee Jones?
	1:28pm Funky16Corners: Yes it was!
	1:28pm Funky16Corners: Hi Andrew!
	1:28pm Erica: I knew she had a raspy singing voice but I didn't know her talking voice was so soothing in that interview of the clouds.
	1:29pm Erica: Another fav of mine: Tour De France.
	1:30pm Funky16Corners: I believe she sued The Orb at one point
	1:31pm Andrew Waterloo: Was that from Reading Rainbow? The interviewer sounds like Javar Burton
	1:31pm Andrew Waterloo: LeVar Burton..
	1:32pm joe: Well at least her label did en.wikipedia.org...
	1:33pm Funky16Corners: @Andrew - Wiki says that was indeed the source!
	1:33pm joe: @andrew waterloo yes it was
	1:34pm Erica: Great. Now I can look up that interview (without the Orb) later. Thanks guys!
	1:35pm Funky16Corners: Now I want to look it up! I never thought to see where it came from.
	1:36pm joe: 5 years ago this past Monday I was at a Kraftwerk show.
	1:36pm Funky16Corners: How were they?
	1:37pm Andrew Waterloo: according to Wiki, it was from an interview disc, that was not Burton. That would have been a pretty awesome episode of Reading Rainbow though
	1:37pm joe: I stand corrected it is not from REeading Rainbow "The samples are widely believed to have come from a conversation between Jones and LeVar Burton on the children's television programme Reading Rainbow,[3] but in fact originated from an interview disc that was issued with some promotional boxed copies of her album Flying Cowboys. The interview was not conducted by Burton."
	1:37pm joe: @Funky16Corners Really really Good
	1:38pm Andrew Waterloo: coincidentally I've been listening to some old Ninja Tune comps
	1:39pm Funky16Corners: @Joe - Was the the series of shows where they were doing entire albums?
	1:40pm joe: @Funky16Corners It was the one right after that. The 3D tour. My guess done because how amazingly well the album shows you are speaking of was received.
	1:41pm Funky16Corners: very cool!
	1:54pm chresti: I was on a ninja tune obsession, in the early two thousands
	1:57pm Carmichael: Rickie Lee was also sampled on a Boards of Canada tune, Fluffy Little Clouds or something like that. Wasn't happy about that, either ...
	1:57pm chresti: From ninja, I went to warp and tigerbeat 6
	1:59pm chresti: Thanks Larry, see you alls later!
	1:59pm Funky16Corners: Later Chresti!
	2:01pm Kudubundu: I actually thought this was Laetitia Sadier!
	2:04pm Funky16Corners: Britta Phillips singing en Francaise!
	2:05pm Erica: The same Britta Phillips who sang on Jem & the Holograms songs?
	2:05pm Funky16Corners: Yes
	2:07pm Funky16Corners: She was an actress before being in Luna
	2:12pm Erica: You should be proud of your son Miles, Larry. He's your little helper.
	2:16pm Funky16Corners: He's a good egg, that Miles. Smart, a talented artist and an all around good person.
	2:16pm Carmichael: I didn't realize Luna came out of Galaxie 500, Ultrababyfat and The Christine Keeler Affair.
	2:17pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, great band
	2:17pm Erica: Ooh. Some Pat Metheny.
	2:19pm Funky16Corners: I saw Metheny and his band a number of times around this album and the one before it. Really, really good band.
	2:21pm Carmichael: I saw him around the time he had a Brazilian guy singing harmonizing notes with the band. Pretty cool and different.
	2:21pm Funky16Corners: Yes, Nana Vasconcelos!
	2:23pm Funky16Corners: The Pat Metheny Group played a concert at Montclair State College right after I started my freshman year, in this little theater. It was pretty incredible, right after this album came out.
	2:27pm Erica: Didn't imagine you to be into Pat Metheny Larry, especially since their later stuff is more smooth jazz and less experimental jazz like the earlier stuff.
	2:27pm Webhamster Henry: HI Testifiers! As Falls.. is a classic!
	2:29pm Funky16Corners: I loved this era of the Metheny Group because even though it's presented as jazz it's really a lot further out than that, almost a jazz take on progressive rock. I even dig their more traditional sounding stuff, but this is a pretty unusual/remarkable piece of work, especially for the early 80s
	2:29pm Funky16Corners: Hi Henry!
	2:29pm Funky16Corners: This may also be the longest track I have ever played on Testify!
	2:36pm Matt from New Orleans: Hello again everyone. I eventually made my way down to crescent park right outside the French Quarter and am enjoying the sun, the view up and down the river and Larry’s tunes.
	2:36pm Funky16Corners: That sounds excellent!
	2:38pm northguineahills: Larry, djing on GTDS stream, half of the time!
	2:39pm Funky16Corners: Hey NGH! I'm living on the airwaves!
	2:41pm Erica: Pilot of the airwaves he is.
	2:45pm Funky16Corners: @Erica - I like that, 'Pilot of the Airwaves'!
	2:47pm northguineahills: Haven't heard this Laswell remix in ages....
	2:48pm Erica: It's a song by Charlie Dore Larry. Very good soft rock song from the late 70s
	2:48pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, I like this album a lot. He doesn't mess with things too much
	2:48pm Funky16Corners: @Erica - I'm not familiar with it. I'll look it up after the show
	2:49pm david w: Wonderful.
	2:49pm Erica: If you're into Joni Mitchell, I recommend Charlie Dore. Very talented British singer/musician.
	2:50pm Funky16Corners: I love Joni! I'll def check that out
	2:51pm Sem: Head down in work and lovin' the show, Larry. Miles and Miles and Miles. Thanks, see you again another time.
	2:51pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Sem!
	🥁 2:52pm Granny Spacey Tuna: Greetings, earthlings!
	2:57pm Funky16Corners: Hey Granny!
	2:57pm Erica: See you again at 10 guys!
	2:58pm Funky16Corners: See you later, Erica!

	1:40pm joe: @Funky16Corners It was the one right after that. The 3D tour. My guess done because how amazingly well the album shows you are speaking of was received.
	1:41pm Funky16Corners: very cool!
	1:54pm chresti: I was on a ninja tune obsession, in the early two thousands
	1:57pm Carmichael: Rickie Lee was also sampled on a Boards of Canada tune, Fluffy Little Clouds or something like that. Wasn't happy about that, either ...
	1:57pm chresti: From ninja, I went to warp and tigerbeat 6
	1:59pm chresti: Thanks Larry, see you alls later!
	1:59pm Funky16Corners: Later Chresti!
	2:01pm Kudubundu: I actually thought this was Laetitia Sadier!
	2:04pm Funky16Corners: Britta Phillips singing en Francaise!
	2:05pm Erica: The same Britta Phillips who sang on Jem & the Holograms songs?
	2:05pm Funky16Corners: Yes
	2:07pm Funky16Corners: She was an actress before being in Luna
	2:12pm Erica: You should be proud of your son Miles, Larry. He's your little helper.
	2:16pm Funky16Corners: He's a good egg, that Miles. Smart, a talented artist and an all around good person.
	2:16pm Carmichael: I didn't realize Luna came out of Galaxie 500, Ultrababyfat and The Christine Keeler Affair.
	2:17pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, great band
	2:17pm Erica: Ooh. Some Pat Metheny.
	2:19pm Funky16Corners: I saw Metheny and his band a number of times around this album and the one before it. Really, really good band.
	2:21pm Carmichael: I saw him around the time he had a Brazilian guy singing harmonizing notes with the band. Pretty cool and different.
	2:21pm Funky16Corners: Yes, Nana Vasconcelos!
	2:23pm Funky16Corners: The Pat Metheny Group played a concert at Montclair State College right after I started my freshman year, in this little theater. It was pretty incredible, right after this album came out.
	2:27pm Erica: Didn't imagine you to be into Pat Metheny Larry, especially since their later stuff is more smooth jazz and less experimental jazz like the earlier stuff.
	2:27pm Webhamster Henry: HI Testifiers! As Falls.. is a classic!
	2:29pm Funky16Corners: I loved this era of the Metheny Group because even though it's presented as jazz it's really a lot further out than that, almost a jazz take on progressive rock. I even dig their more traditional sounding stuff, but this is a pretty unusual/remarkable piece of work, especially for the early 80s
	2:29pm Funky16Corners: Hi Henry!
	2:29pm Funky16Corners: This may also be the longest track I have ever played on Testify!
	2:36pm Matt from New Orleans: Hello again everyone. I eventually made my way down to crescent park right outside the French Quarter and am enjoying the sun, the view up and down the river and Larry’s tunes.
	2:36pm Funky16Corners: That sounds excellent!
	2:38pm northguineahills: Larry, djing on GTDS stream, half of the time!
	2:39pm Funky16Corners: Hey NGH! I'm living on the airwaves!
	2:41pm Erica: Pilot of the airwaves he is.
	2:45pm Funky16Corners: @Erica - I like that, 'Pilot of the Airwaves'!
	2:47pm northguineahills: Haven't heard this Laswell remix in ages....
	2:48pm Erica: It's a song by Charlie Dore Larry. Very good soft rock song from the late 70s
	2:48pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, I like this album a lot. He doesn't mess with things too much
	2:48pm Funky16Corners: @Erica - I'm not familiar with it. I'll look it up after the show
	2:49pm david w: Wonderful.
	2:49pm Erica: If you're into Joni Mitchell, I recommend Charlie Dore. Very talented British singer/musician.
	2:50pm Funky16Corners: I love Joni! I'll def check that out
	2:51pm Sem: Head down in work and lovin' the show, Larry. Miles and Miles and Miles. Thanks, see you again another time.
	2:51pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Sem!
	🥁 2:52pm Granny Spacey Tuna: Greetings, earthlings!
	2:57pm Funky16Corners: Hey Granny!
	2:57pm Erica: See you again at 10 guys!
	2:58pm Funky16Corners: See you later, Erica!
