	3:18pm Georgie B: :)

	5:31pm fred: @Michael 98145: I pine for the time I would have taken that as a cue. But my boss has a reputation for sudden bursts of violence, and I'm on blood thinners, not a good combination
	5:32pm Michael 98145: yikes, @fred. workplace abuse is no joke.
	5:33pm Guido from Cologne: No John Fahey without Elisabeth Cotton!

	5:34pm Jocelyn: Sheila needs a podcast, I could listen to her interview someone for hours
	5:34pm Jocelyn: Have a great weekend Phillippe!

	5:36pm chresti: Get a good buzz on Phillipe B!
	5:38pm Guido from Cologne: There is a WFMU session with Joanna Newsom somewhere
	5:41pm tripod: Elizabeth Cotten and Joanna Newsom. Great choices! I was really hearing frailed banjo in Cotten’s version of Ruben. Never noticed that before. It is a banjo tune, traditionally. And Elizabeth was a great banjo player. Very cool!
	5:42pm fred: Joanna Newsom... I have fond memories of a show years ago (with White Magic and Six Organs of Admittance) It also reminds me that Mary Lattimore is touring Europe these days. No stop in Paris, of course
	5:45pm Michael 98145: ( there is nothing wrong with idealism )
	5:50pm djsheilab: Here's Nabihah's site! nabihahiqbal.com
	5:50pm Listener Howard and the Cats: Wonderful show today, Sheila! AS USUAL.
	5:51pm fred: When something feels wrong, something is. Say it, it might even change minds who don't see there's a problem. Not that it's your job to do that. It's so complicated. I apologize
	5:51pm tripod: Inspiring as always. I have been uplifted! Thank you DJs! Shelia B, do you get to have some bubbly?
	5:52pm chris: thanks, Shelia! and thanks for the interview and great selections, Nabihah! have a great weekend all!

	3:18pm Georgie B: :)

	5:31pm fred: @Michael 98145: I pine for the time I would have taken that as a cue. But my boss has a reputation for sudden bursts of violence, and I'm on blood thinners, not a good combination
	5:32pm Michael 98145: yikes, @fred. workplace abuse is no joke.
	5:33pm Guido from Cologne: No John Fahey without Elisabeth Cotton!

	5:38pm Guido from Cologne: There is a WFMU session with Joanna Newsom somewhere
	5:41pm tripod: Elizabeth Cotten and Joanna Newsom. Great choices! I was really hearing frailed banjo in Cotten’s version of Ruben. Never noticed that before. It is a banjo tune, traditionally. And Elizabeth was a great banjo player. Very cool!
	5:42pm fred: Joanna Newsom... I have fond memories of a show years ago (with White Magic and Six Organs of Admittance) It also reminds me that Mary Lattimore is touring Europe these days. No stop in Paris, of course
	5:45pm Michael 98145: ( there is nothing wrong with idealism )
	5:50pm djsheilab: Here's Nabihah's site! nabihahiqbal.com
	5:50pm Listener Howard and the Cats: Wonderful show today, Sheila! AS USUAL.
	5:51pm fred: When something feels wrong, something is. Say it, it might even change minds who don't see there's a problem. Not that it's your job to do that. It's so complicated. I apologize
	5:51pm tripod: Inspiring as always. I have been uplifted! Thank you DJs! Shelia B, do you get to have some bubbly?
