	10:16am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: Guten morgen, Trouble and the man.
	10:19am sphere: trouble, you put the "free" in freeform. :)
	10:19am Tyler: Family dance party before school here in Seattle!!!
	♥ 10:22am Passaic River Blues: I love Kokoko!, sort of a dancier Konono No. 1.
	10:28am zopa: pump up the jams
	♥ 10:28am Passaic River Blues: UNIIQU3 is from Newark and one of my favorite Jersey Club artists, while TT the Artist released a song called "Real Bitch Problems" a couple of years back that is basically my wife's favorite song.
	10:32am Z-pulpa: Im going skating at the roller rink tonight!!!!!
	10:34am βrian: I hear those blue jays raising hell.
	10:35am Rev. Turnip Druid: Holy crap Z, it's been since legit roller-disco era for this old Reverend.
	10:35am Rev. Turnip Druid: also: hello friends.
	♥ 10:39am melinda: @Brian cute photo!
	♥ 10:42am adampsyche: this is smooth as all get out
	10:42am βrian: @melinda: Thanks. She had won an on-board coloring contest, hence the sailor's hat prize.
	♥ 10:44am Hughie Considine: I'm liking this "Long Hot Summer" a lot more than the song by the Tom Robinson Band with the same name.
	10:45am Earthling: Great song, isn't it some sort of extended mix?
	♥ 10:49am melinda: I love the Diva soundtrack.
	♥ 10:49am Trouble: @earthling; nope, it's the original version on their first record
	♥ 10:49am Phillippe Bastille: Good morning
	10:50am sphere: morning Phillippe
	♥ 10:50am Hughie Considine: Indeed a wonderful soundtrack. "Sentimental Walk" was a go-to for me on mixtapes for objects of my affection...
	♥ 10:51am Webhamster Henry: A little Vocal Fry-y throat singing this morning!
	♥ 10:51am Michael 98145: all hail the sun
	10:52am Earthling: Thanks Trouble! Your songs turn me from work to youtube-playlist-saving, as usual
	♥ 10:55am ⓘⓚⓔ: Thursday is my favorite workday for WFMU listening. Trouble-Olivia-Fabio, blam blam blam! Hot! (Although it's Donna filling in for Fabio today, yas ladies!)
	♥ 10:55am Trouble: just re watched diva, was trying to figure out if it would be cool to show to my junior art class. instead i showed beauty and the beast 1946 by jean cocteau
	10:57am aaronfromMI: yes, this is indeed helping my workday as well. It's hard to sell heated clothing during warm weather months. This helps with the extreme boredom.
	♥ 10:59am crateslinger: There was a woman on her sailboat on the mooring next to mine who saw my WFMU shirt and struck up a conversation. She said she listens to Trouble every Thursday. I told her to look for me on the comments board. Here I am!
	11:00am sphere: thank goodness my work lets me listen to the internet because i left my smartphone on the hood of my car and it fell off into the highway.
	♥ 11:00am crateslinger: I also listen to Trouble every Thursday.
	♥ 11:01am Trouble: go crateslinger! sailing and wfmu are a good mix
	♥ 11:03am Passaic River Blues: @Trouble: "Diva" and "Beauty and the Beast" are both excellent. That's a win-win either way situation. You would probably enjoy Cocteau's memoir "The Difficulty of Being" and his meditations on art. It's exceptionally good.
	♥ 11:04am Devin B.: You guys are making me wanna go sailing really urgently
	♥ 11:04am Michael 98145: Cocteau is always a welcome treat
	♥ 11:07am steveo: is there a cart machine? you need a bird cart!
	11:07am zopa: Twenty turntables and a microphone!
	11:08am sphere: never liked carts. they seemed so fragile.
	♥ 11:08am Michael 98145: female magicalness !
	♥ 11:08am steveo: i'm guessing there's not a cart machine
	♥ 11:08am crateslinger: Hi Trouble - yes - sailing and WFMU - and the best part is I can pick up the 91.1 terrestrial signal on my boat (but not in my brooklyn apartment). Something about vhf propagation across bodies of salt water.
	♥ 11:10am Granny Spicy Tuna: wafting in on a fluffy cloud…
	11:10am yes: 12 hour drive starts now . This is beautiful
	♥ 11:12am Listener Paul: A couple of mike breaks, you mentioned DJ Icepack graduating HS today--my daughter graduated last week! I remember back when DJ Icepack would do occasional shows with you in the summer. I still can't believe how fast it all goes.
	11:12am sphere: hi Granny :)
	11:12am holland oats: blunstone is the man
	♥ 11:13am Michael 98145: time. just think. we are about to enter the 20s.
	11:14am Earthling: wow never knew he went solo - great stuff. That voice is really unique
	11:15am holland oats: yup - 2 great solo lps
	♥ 11:15am Granny Spicy Tuna: Hi, Trouble, howdy sphere, hey folx! That Colin Blunstone was lovely, hadn't heard it before. Thought it was Todd Rundgren for a moment.
	11:16am holland oats: actually lots of solo lps, i'm only familiar with the frirst two
	♥ 11:17am Trouble: yes@listener paul: insane!
	11:19am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: Hello all. Seeking a little lifestyle advice this morning. Anyone here have any firsthand experience using a
	11:20am Emily: I do believe in miracles. Driving, not teaching this morning. Had to pull over to say hey! Good segue from Colin Blunstone to the Tropicali sound! Xoxo
	11:21am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: (an) air fryer? Looking at options, hope they aren't bogus.
	♥ 11:21am Ken From Hyde Park: Congrats to DJ Icepack. Good luck to him on his future endeavors.
	♥ 11:22am Michael 98145: excellent
	♥ 11:25am Trouble: hola@emily, merci! @ken from hyde park: thanks!
	♥ 11:28am ɨkɛ: Woo hoo! Doctor Who theme! Kinda makes me sad though, thinking about how the first lady Doctor is being served so poorly by really really terrible scripts by that idiot writer who stumbled into success with Broadchurch but other than that, can't write a decent script to save his life. Dark times for Doctor Who lately.
	11:28am yes: :)
	11:28am sphere: @ Itzall NYT took a look at air fryers. they seem sorta limited but NYT had recipes for them.
	11:28am Kevin_Ringwood_ UK: Nice version. My Doctor was Tom Baker...
	11:29am sphere: www.nytimes.com...
	11:31am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: Thanks, sphere. I'm looking at MANY sizes/brands online. My main concern is not to throw away $$ if they are useless, but from reading lots of reviews I'm sort of narrowing the search. Meanwhile, this joint from Augustus is chill as all f.
	♥ 11:32am crateslinger: @Itzall - we have an air fryer and my wife loves it. Great for jalapeno poppers. I say she loves it because I am the one who always seems to have to clean it.
	11:33am ?: Great record from Nina M!
	♥ 11:33am crateslinger: It's a decent thing to have if you have the shelf space to store it and a dishwasher probably. We have a sink and a sponge.
	♥ 11:34am crateslinger: So yeah if you have an automatic dishwasher - an air fryer is pretty cool. I'm not sure which one we have, but I'm sure it will break at some point.
	11:35am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: Man, reading that piece from the NYT and now I AM SLAVERING!!! Thanks, I guess I'll be taking the plunge for the holiday weekend. crateslinger, do you know the brand of "the one your wife loves"?!?
	♥ 11:35am crateslinger: stand by...
	11:35am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: BTW, we also hand wash our dishes, haven't owned a dishwasher in decades since it's just we two.
	11:36am sphere: wow! Nina M was awesome.
	♥ 11:36am Granny Spicy Tuna: yes, that was beautiful
	♥ 11:36am crateslinger: handwashing the air fryer basket sucks.
	♥ 11:37am crateslinger: but the poppers are delish
	11:37am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: I understand, but- at least you don't have to "maintain" an oil fryer. Trade-offs...
	♥ 11:37am Trouble: nina miranda has a few solo records and one (i think) flawless record with smoke city her first band
	♥ 11:38am frozen_peas: @crateslinger: poppers are worth the pain
	11:38am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: I am really digging this Jamila Woods bumper!
	♥ 11:39am crateslinger: That's true. I am a cast-iron pan kind of guy but I do appreciate all the nifty things my wife does with her innovative gadgets, and washing dishes cleans my fingernails so it's all good. @frozen peas - you are correct sir.
	11:39am sphere: me too. normally this kind of house isn't my thing, but this is hitting me right in the sweet spot.
	11:39am emily: love the art today!!!!
	♥ 11:39am crateslinger: or ma'am...
	11:41am βrian: I'm a fan of my induction cook-top, which works really well with cast iron.
	♥ 11:42am Granny Spicy Tuna: or Mx…
	11:44am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: crateslinger, not to range too widely, but please... more about the nifty things and innovative gadgets! ;)
	♥ 11:44am crateslinger: Itzall - I texted her to find out brand but I think she's asleep. I'll find out later and maybe get the information to you while it's still relevant. I know she got the smaller one and wishes she got the bigger one (so do I). PS - she also loves her "Instant-Pot" - but I think the little bubble buttons are acting up.
	11:44am aaronfromMI: two thumbs up for the instantpot!
	11:45am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: Anyone else Skanking?....
	11:46am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: crates, that sounds like the tip 'o the day to me (get the bigger one)! I too am concerned about counter space, but if I'm gonna' do it... etc.
	♥ 11:48am Granny Spicy Tuna: Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: kinda! When i was a young Culture Club fan in a tiny town in the PNW with nothing but MTV for the wider world, i had no idea where they were getting those sounds from…
	♥ 11:48am crateslinger: Glad I could help. All a sudden hungry...
	11:51am sphere: thanks trouble :)
	♥ 11:52am Trouble: thanks for sitting in, see you next week!
	11:53am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: Dear Granny Spicy Tuna, I musta' got lost in my thread of fryer babble- what was that about Culture Club?!?
	11:54am Mike Wolf: This show is so good it’s making me late for work. Good to the last note etc.! Every time!
	11:55am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: OVER?!? Oh dang, forgot that I came in almost 2 hours late today... archives. Great show again, Trouble!
	11:57am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: What Itzall ClearD'me Nåu just said. See you on the Archives Mme Troublette!
	♥ 11:58am crateslinger: Trouble on the High Seas!
	♥ 11:58am Passaic River Blues: Thank you, Trouble!
	♥ 12:00pm steveo: very enjoyable show -- thank you, DJ Trouble
	♥ 12:00pm Granny Spicy Tuna: thanks! PETRA!!!

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

	10:35am Rev. Turnip Druid: Holy crap Z, it's been since legit roller-disco era for this old Reverend.
	10:35am Rev. Turnip Druid: also: hello friends.
	♥ 10:39am melinda: @Brian cute photo!
	♥ 10:42am adampsyche: this is smooth as all get out
	10:42am βrian: @melinda: Thanks. She had won an on-board coloring contest, hence the sailor's hat prize.
	♥ 10:44am Hughie Considine: I'm liking this "Long Hot Summer" a lot more than the song by the Tom Robinson Band with the same name.
	10:45am Earthling: Great song, isn't it some sort of extended mix?
	♥ 10:49am melinda: I love the Diva soundtrack.
	♥ 10:49am Trouble: @earthling; nope, it's the original version on their first record
	♥ 10:49am Phillippe Bastille: Good morning
	10:50am sphere: morning Phillippe
	♥ 10:50am Hughie Considine: Indeed a wonderful soundtrack. "Sentimental Walk" was a go-to for me on mixtapes for objects of my affection...
	♥ 10:51am Webhamster Henry: A little Vocal Fry-y throat singing this morning!
	♥ 10:51am Michael 98145: all hail the sun
	10:52am Earthling: Thanks Trouble! Your songs turn me from work to youtube-playlist-saving, as usual
	♥ 10:55am ⓘⓚⓔ: Thursday is my favorite workday for WFMU listening. Trouble-Olivia-Fabio, blam blam blam! Hot! (Although it's Donna filling in for Fabio today, yas ladies!)
	♥ 10:55am Trouble: just re watched diva, was trying to figure out if it would be cool to show to my junior art class. instead i showed beauty and the beast 1946 by jean cocteau
	10:57am aaronfromMI: yes, this is indeed helping my workday as well. It's hard to sell heated clothing during warm weather months. This helps with the extreme boredom.
	♥ 10:59am crateslinger: There was a woman on her sailboat on the mooring next to mine who saw my WFMU shirt and struck up a conversation. She said she listens to Trouble every Thursday. I told her to look for me on the comments board. Here I am!
	11:00am sphere: thank goodness my work lets me listen to the internet because i left my smartphone on the hood of my car and it fell off into the highway.
	♥ 11:00am crateslinger: I also listen to Trouble every Thursday.
	♥ 11:01am Trouble: go crateslinger! sailing and wfmu are a good mix
	♥ 11:03am Passaic River Blues: @Trouble: "Diva" and "Beauty and the Beast" are both excellent. That's a win-win either way situation. You would probably enjoy Cocteau's memoir "The Difficulty of Being" and his meditations on art. It's exceptionally good.
	♥ 11:04am Devin B.: You guys are making me wanna go sailing really urgently
	♥ 11:04am Michael 98145: Cocteau is always a welcome treat
	♥ 11:07am steveo: is there a cart machine? you need a bird cart!
	11:07am zopa: Twenty turntables and a microphone!
	11:08am sphere: never liked carts. they seemed so fragile.
	♥ 11:08am Michael 98145: female magicalness !
	♥ 11:08am steveo: i'm guessing there's not a cart machine
	♥ 11:08am crateslinger: Hi Trouble - yes - sailing and WFMU - and the best part is I can pick up the 91.1 terrestrial signal on my boat (but not in my brooklyn apartment). Something about vhf propagation across bodies of salt water.
	♥ 11:10am Granny Spicy Tuna: wafting in on a fluffy cloud…
	11:10am yes: 12 hour drive starts now . This is beautiful
	♥ 11:12am Listener Paul: A couple of mike breaks, you mentioned DJ Icepack graduating HS today--my daughter graduated last week! I remember back when DJ Icepack would do occasional shows with you in the summer. I still can't believe how fast it all goes.
	11:12am sphere: hi Granny :)
	11:12am holland oats: blunstone is the man
	♥ 11:13am Michael 98145: time. just think. we are about to enter the 20s.
	11:14am Earthling: wow never knew he went solo - great stuff. That voice is really unique
	11:15am holland oats: yup - 2 great solo lps
	♥ 11:15am Granny Spicy Tuna: Hi, Trouble, howdy sphere, hey folx! That Colin Blunstone was lovely, hadn't heard it before. Thought it was Todd Rundgren for a moment.
	11:16am holland oats: actually lots of solo lps, i'm only familiar with the frirst two
	♥ 11:17am Trouble: yes@listener paul: insane!
	11:19am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: Hello all. Seeking a little lifestyle advice this morning. Anyone here have any firsthand experience using a
	11:20am Emily: I do believe in miracles. Driving, not teaching this morning. Had to pull over to say hey! Good segue from Colin Blunstone to the Tropicali sound! Xoxo
	11:21am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: (an) air fryer? Looking at options, hope they aren't bogus.
	♥ 11:21am Ken From Hyde Park: Congrats to DJ Icepack. Good luck to him on his future endeavors.
	♥ 11:22am Michael 98145: excellent
	♥ 11:25am Trouble: hola@emily, merci! @ken from hyde park: thanks!
	♥ 11:28am ɨkɛ: Woo hoo! Doctor Who theme! Kinda makes me sad though, thinking about how the first lady Doctor is being served so poorly by really really terrible scripts by that idiot writer who stumbled into success with Broadchurch but other than that, can't write a decent script to save his life. Dark times for Doctor Who lately.
	11:28am yes: :)
	11:28am sphere: @ Itzall NYT took a look at air fryers. they seem sorta limited but NYT had recipes for them.
	11:28am Kevin_Ringwood_ UK: Nice version. My Doctor was Tom Baker...
	11:29am sphere: www.nytimes.com...
	11:31am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: Thanks, sphere. I'm looking at MANY sizes/brands online. My main concern is not to throw away $$ if they are useless, but from reading lots of reviews I'm sort of narrowing the search. Meanwhile, this joint from Augustus is chill as all f.
	♥ 11:32am crateslinger: @Itzall - we have an air fryer and my wife loves it. Great for jalapeno poppers. I say she loves it because I am the one who always seems to have to clean it.
	11:33am ?: Great record from Nina M!
	♥ 11:33am crateslinger: It's a decent thing to have if you have the shelf space to store it and a dishwasher probably. We have a sink and a sponge.
	♥ 11:34am crateslinger: So yeah if you have an automatic dishwasher - an air fryer is pretty cool. I'm not sure which one we have, but I'm sure it will break at some point.
	11:35am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: Man, reading that piece from the NYT and now I AM SLAVERING!!! Thanks, I guess I'll be taking the plunge for the holiday weekend. crateslinger, do you know the brand of "the one your wife loves"?!?
	♥ 11:35am crateslinger: stand by...
	11:35am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: BTW, we also hand wash our dishes, haven't owned a dishwasher in decades since it's just we two.
	11:36am sphere: wow! Nina M was awesome.
	♥ 11:36am Granny Spicy Tuna: yes, that was beautiful
	♥ 11:36am crateslinger: handwashing the air fryer basket sucks.
	♥ 11:37am crateslinger: but the poppers are delish
	11:37am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: I understand, but- at least you don't have to "maintain" an oil fryer. Trade-offs...
	♥ 11:37am Trouble: nina miranda has a few solo records and one (i think) flawless record with smoke city her first band
	♥ 11:38am frozen_peas: @crateslinger: poppers are worth the pain
	11:38am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: I am really digging this Jamila Woods bumper!
	♥ 11:39am crateslinger: That's true. I am a cast-iron pan kind of guy but I do appreciate all the nifty things my wife does with her innovative gadgets, and washing dishes cleans my fingernails so it's all good. @frozen peas - you are correct sir.
	11:39am sphere: me too. normally this kind of house isn't my thing, but this is hitting me right in the sweet spot.
	11:39am emily: love the art today!!!!
	♥ 11:39am crateslinger: or ma'am...
	11:41am βrian: I'm a fan of my induction cook-top, which works really well with cast iron.
	♥ 11:42am Granny Spicy Tuna: or Mx…
	11:44am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: crateslinger, not to range too widely, but please... more about the nifty things and innovative gadgets! ;)
	♥ 11:44am crateslinger: Itzall - I texted her to find out brand but I think she's asleep. I'll find out later and maybe get the information to you while it's still relevant. I know she got the smaller one and wishes she got the bigger one (so do I). PS - she also loves her "Instant-Pot" - but I think the little bubble buttons are acting up.
	11:44am aaronfromMI: two thumbs up for the instantpot!
	11:45am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: Anyone else Skanking?....
	11:46am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: crates, that sounds like the tip 'o the day to me (get the bigger one)! I too am concerned about counter space, but if I'm gonna' do it... etc.
	♥ 11:48am Granny Spicy Tuna: Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: kinda! When i was a young Culture Club fan in a tiny town in the PNW with nothing but MTV for the wider world, i had no idea where they were getting those sounds from…
	♥ 11:48am crateslinger: Glad I could help. All a sudden hungry...
	11:51am sphere: thanks trouble :)
	♥ 11:52am Trouble: thanks for sitting in, see you next week!
	11:53am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: Dear Granny Spicy Tuna, I musta' got lost in my thread of fryer babble- what was that about Culture Club?!?
	11:54am Mike Wolf: This show is so good it’s making me late for work. Good to the last note etc.! Every time!
	11:55am Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: OVER?!? Oh dang, forgot that I came in almost 2 hours late today... archives. Great show again, Trouble!
	11:57am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: What Itzall ClearD'me Nåu just said. See you on the Archives Mme Troublette!
	♥ 11:58am crateslinger: Trouble on the High Seas!
	♥ 11:58am Passaic River Blues: Thank you, Trouble!
	♥ 12:00pm steveo: very enjoyable show -- thank you, DJ Trouble
	♥ 12:00pm Granny Spicy Tuna: thanks! PETRA!!!
