	3:28pm John from Florham park: @ncjay found it on Spotify and put it on my personal list
	3:29pm Rob Kopp: Yeah. Great cover. Don't know this one by Fabienne. Oh, a new records see. Tomorrow I know where I have to go: to the record shop!
	♥ 3:30pm Ken From Hyde Park: So is it all just a coincidence that this show is scheduled for Friday afternoons and that Sheila rhymes with tequila? Any mixologists on board today to come up with an official beverage for SBB?
	♥ 3:30pm Passaic River Blues: @Rob Kopp: Absolutely!
	3:30pm MariaAldrey: I love fridays just because of this show <3
	♥ 3:32pm The Oscar: Afternoon! "Kickin'" by Whale is a pretty good "get me pregnant" song, but it's pretty clearly treated as a joke. (Also, any day I get to bring up Whale is a good day).
	3:33pm ncjay: ...and then there's the odious "you're having my baby" and its even worse answer song
	3:34pm ncjay: seems to me there's a Hikaru Utada song with "I want your baby" as a chorus. pretty loud song too
	3:34pm P-90: Ha! Mark Hurst has a lot to answer for
	♥ 3:34pm listener james from westwood: THAT BOOK MADE ME SO RIGHTEOUSLY MAD
	3:34pm johnzo: dammit mark why do you have to ruin everything for everybody with yer damn truth speaking
	3:34pm John from Florham park: @Shelia got the book from the library and I am not sure I want to read it
	3:34pm ncjay: ugh. there are more but I need to put this out of my mind
	3:35pm queems: i feel this way about long island city
	♥ 3:35pm listener james from westwood: I walked thru Times Squ for the first time in months back on 9/30, and while I'm not one of these folks who pines for crime and grime, good gods this is not NYC.
	3:35pm Rob Kopp: @Passaic River Blues: The Godzillas als did a cover of Hurtin' kind on an EP. I love him still on that EP is a cover of 'I love her still, I always will' by the legendary (Dutch) Outsiders.
	3:35pm Registered Listener: I always liked the Marla Singer "I wanna have your abortion" line from fight club. Although not really for the eroticism.
	3:35pm robyn and 6-yr old mini glistener ajax: i feel you, it’s so sad! the fall of gotham
	3:36pm P-90: Most depressing example for me: Bleecker Street is GONE
	♥ 3:36pm listener james from westwood: If you haven't gotten to the part where Moss discusses the gentrification of the Breslin into the Ace Hotel, know that it got me to break an upcoming reservation at the hotel for a work anniversary. I was so disgusted that I called mid-read and canceled the room. Was so disgusted at marginalized folks being put in the street that I wanted nothing to do with its cause.
	3:36pm Jocelyn: Right? I lived on the Bowery when you still had to walk around sleeping drunks on the sidewalk.
	♥ 3:36pm Ken From Hyde Park: But there's a cool new Nordstrom's on 57th Street!
	3:36pm PKNY: I'm reading "Vanishing New York" now as well, such a great read, but so so depressing.
	♥ 3:37pm Phillippe Bastille: Hi Friday friends!
	3:37pm Bob a: But visitors come away saying “but it’s the biggest Applebee’s I’ve ever seen”.
	3:38pm Jocelyn: I’ve loved Jeremiah’s blog for years and was so happy he wrote a book.
	♥ 3:38pm Phillippe Bastille: Sad part is once Amazon finishes tightening the noose, the Targets and Marshalls and HomeGoods will be gone next and it'll look like Detroit
	3:38pm Jocelyn: Happy Friday Phillippe!
	♥ 3:38pm listener james from westwood: I visited Pittsburgh for the first time in 2015, and it felt so much more welcoming as a city vs. the strip mall Manhattan is becoming. The only thing I'm happy about is that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the rep for the part of the Bx I grew up in.
	3:39pm P-90: Sheila B book blurb: “Exceptional writing and REALLY AWFUL content!”
	♥ 3:39pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey Jocelyn! How's life?
	3:39pm John from Florham park: @Shelia since I am back in North Jersey I have been afraid to go in the city because of what and the book are saying
	3:39pm karen eliot: it’s so disheartening.
	♥ 3:39pm Passaic River Blues: @PKNY: After reading his blog years ago, I gave "Vanishing New York" to my father-in-law, a Brooklyn native and partisan, for Christmas. He had the same view: great and necessary book, unrelentingly depressing.
	♥ 3:39pm listener james from westwood: The spread of Google around where I used to work by the Chelsea Market alone is a Lovecraftian nightmare, complete with HPL's racism.
	♥ 3:40pm Listener Howard and the Cats: I am absolutely with you on this, Sheila. I left NYC 10 years ago, after being there for 20. I never thought I would ever leave, but almost everything I was there for just disappeared around me... And I'm also having strict new phone rules for myself, glad to see I'm not the only one!
	3:41pm johnzo: speaking of cities sucking... I have to go to court for taping a gig poster to a light pole. it's a misdemeanor. bs.
	3:41pm Jocelyn: Phillipe, Pretty good thank you. How’s everything there?
	♥ 3:42pm steveo: Hi Sheila! Great to hear you & your excellent records!
	3:44pm Daybreak and the Adventure Begins...: Shelia you are sadly broadcasting from a similar spot to the lost NYC. I’m coming down to WFMU on Sat for Karaoke, and I was so surprised the 1st time I came down last year and saw how much Monty sticks out like a glorious sore thumb in that part of JC. It made me so glad that I swag for life!
	3:47pm djsheilab: Daybreak and the Adventure Begins...—I actually walked around Jersey City looking for a slice of pizza at a new spot and it was just so awful walking amongst all those lifeless buildings. HELP!
	3:47pm djsheilab: Thanks to all of you for chiming in on this topic. I know so many of you feel the same way. It's a helpless feeling.
	3:49pm djsheilab: johnzo—THAT IS INSANE!
	3:50pm John from Florham park: @Shelia here in north jersey in the Morris county area it has really changed,everyone is building McMansions and stuff
	♥ 3:50pm Michael 98145: sadly, so much of this country is becoming only about money and more money
	3:50pm northguineahills: Fishmans, so niiiiiiicccceeee…..!
	♥ 3:50pm Michael 98145: for the few
	♥ 3:51pm listener james from westwood: Oy, good point re: the pizza quest. I feel like FMU is one last bit of old NYC/NJ holding its own, as it did against the floodwaters during Sandy.
	3:51pm djsheilab: Michael 98145—You said it.
	♥ 3:51pm Passaic River Blues: @NGH: Fishmans hitting the spot!
	♥ 3:52pm Michael 98145: it takes a village to support an FMU
	3:52pm Rob Kopp: Don't know if there are iTunes users on a Mac amongst you, but if so: don't upgrade to OS Catalina! iTunes will be replaced by app Music, and in Music you can only search on 5 fields (Song, Artist, Album, Composer, Playlist) and not any more on the other fields. So not on column Remarks! So here I am with my iTunes library of 40.000 songs and I can't properly search in it anymore. You can't install iTunes on Catalina and you can't go back to OS Mojave! I can't believe Apple removed the filter bar in app Music.
	3:52pm northguineahills: @Michael: I see it every day around my bros. and who they hang out w/. All they care about is the potential to make more money and showing said status, political ethics be damned.... (I need one of these jobs to hit so I can get my own place again, soon, even GIS for Disney would work for me [I've worked for the federal gov't before, could that be worse?])
	3:53pm djsheilab: listener james from westwood—I haven't gotten to the part about the Breslin + Ace yet. It's not somewhere I frequent but I have DJ'd there a few times.
	3:53pm Daybreak and the Adventure Begins...: Well 1) you can call me just Daybreak, I change the rest of the handle regularly. 2) You get to broadcast from and represent a mental and physical splinter of the correct reality that shall not be removed! 3) If we need to sing our damn troubles away we should all do it at Monty on Saturday, I’ll duet with my mediocre singing voice with anyone. In FMU singing terms, I only put my mouth where my hoof is willing to go (if that sounds creepy, I apologize, sometimes the FMU parlance comes out that way)
	♥ 3:53pm Phillippe Bastille: @Jocelyn pretty good here, can't complain!
	3:53pm djsheilab: Thanks for the warning, Rob Kopp!
	♥ 3:54pm Michael 98145: @ngh, anyone with a job with benefits is lucky these days..
	3:56pm Daybreak and the Adventure Begins...: John from FP, Come to Boonton in Morris county! Ignore the giant Walmart on Whooton st. We still got unique houses and a main st with stores, art, and a venue for high and a venue for low!
	3:56pm John from Florham park: Today has become such a bummer after hearing how everything in. NYC is becoming gentrification
	3:56pm ncjay: @Rob Kopp oh no, thanks for the info! I held off updating (can't call it upgrading) and I would be lost without my filter bar
	♥ 3:57pm coelacanth∅: greetings Sheila & Sophisticats
	3:57pm Rob Kopp: I've phoned with the helpdesk of Apple today. All I can do is wait until they've put the filterbar back in app Music... ff they are going to do it. If there are users where the same happened: please fill in the feedback form on Apple/feedback. The more complaints, hopefully the sooner they do something about it.
	3:57pm John from Florham park: @Daybreak thanks for the invite
	♥ 3:58pm SSS: I used to visit my sister in the East Village in the mid sixties. I lived there myself in the late 80s, left just as the downward trajectory of gentrification swung to upward one. VERY evident to me that it was a multi decade very planned and nuanced take over of the real estate. The players through those decades? the cops, civil servants in the building departments, and most importantly the Mob.
	3:58pm Daybreak and the Adventure Begins...: No problem John!!!
	3:58pm Jocelyn: I hate when they merged music on the phone to where when I tap on an artists name instead of taking me to my list of that artist’s music it shows me that artist in their store. And the books app is a mess.
	♥ 3:58pm SSS: Oops! Left out Giuliani.
	3:59pm P-90: Aloha coel!
	3:59pm Rob Kopp: My advice; don't update/upgrade before you are sure the filterbar is back in app Music.
	♥ 4:01pm coelacanth∅: bonjour P-90!
	♥ 4:01pm Michael 98145: i've always lived on the left coast, so i don't know from dirt, but hasn't NYC always been a magnet for financial types with no investment in their adopted city? i am surprised -anything- is left standing.
	4:01pm John from Florham park: @Jocelyn I refuse to pay 10 dollars a month fri the privilege of using Apple Music, when there are still wonderful stations like this on the dial or other stations I can get through my iPhone
	4:02pm editor_b: "We looked into the void" "We looked into each other"
	4:02pm djsheilab: Hello coelacanth∅, SSS, editor_b + those of you just joining!
	4:02pm yes: Hello everyone . Seems I missed the bummer portion of the program.
	4:02pm Jett: Nice to hear your beautiful voice on the air! @djsheilab
	4:03pm northguineahills: @Michael: anyone w/ a job is lucky these days. I have gotten rejected for Target, Walmart, UPS, Walgreens, etc, b/c my resume is all tech GIS jobs since my undergrad years (volunteering charity work be damned), so, I now have no money, but I keep on trying for any job.
	♥ 4:03pm chresti: Hi!
	4:03pm northguineahills: (But, I'm in the best shape I've been in 10 years due to the extra time has allowed me to keep fit...)
	4:03pm editor_b: My Friday is not complete without processing photos while listening to Sheila B.
	4:04pm Jocelyn: Hi coel!
	♥ 4:04pm Michael 98145: @ngh, really hope you find something soon ...
	♥ 4:04pm ParUbi: There's an essay by Freya Mathews that speaks to this issue of endless and relentless renovation that some of you might find interesting-- "Letting the World Grow Old"
	4:05pm djsheilab: Definitely. Thank you ParUbi.
	4:06pm Jocelyn: Phillippe, I’ll never pay for or use Apple Music. But the absurdity that they redirect everything to their store. They’ve made it difficult to even load your own music on their devices. It’s creepy and annoying.
	♥ 4:06pm coelacanth∅: hey Jocelyn! how ya been?
	♥ 4:09pm SSS: Hey...Don't mean to bring up things a drag. I feel resistances should examine and understand their enemies. It is nothing short of astounding that the whole planet is still being jerked around by these same #hit*eads. The E.V. was just practice for them.....I'll stop now.
	4:10pm Jocelyn: Coel, good! How are you?
	♥ 4:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Here's a book about. L A. from way back 1990 - just to make it bicoastal : en.m.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 4:12pm Michael 98145: love a DJ on fire :)
	4:12pm William Main: I went to NYU, too. When did you graduate?
	♥ 4:12pm Mark Hurst: Sorry, Sheila, my fault! :)
	4:12pm John from Florham park: @Shelia I am sure you used stronger language then that to NYU:)
	4:12pm Jett: @djsheilab NYC isn't a shell.of itself, I miss seeing what St.Marks Place was all about, walking through the village, I might as well be walking through some unknown rural.town. Yes it is depressing but New York will always be my home town, anyway!
	4:12pm chalmers: I would buy an MP3 recording of Sheila’s phone call with NYU.
	4:13pm BH: I've found things to be weirdly relaxed using my phone in bed at like 2:30am with no noise around. Nothing is particularly going on in the Western Hemisphere at that time and it's very peaceful too. Then I wake up later and put my phone on the charger
	4:13pm johnzo: blame the messenger! it's all mark's fault!
	♥ 4:13pm Skurky: Should I get this book to enrage my native NY'er fiancé?
	♥ 4:14pm Passaic River Blues: @NGH: My wife and I were recently remembering Trump's beyond-pointless, temper-tantrum/gov't shutdown and all the collateral damage it caused. I told her about a guy down in FL who was recently hired for a geography project only to see it gutted due to an interruption of government funding (this was my hazy recollection of your comments from several months ago). She was as appalled as I was. I've been working a series of temporary, contract jobs for the last 3.5 years and nearly always feel the abyss licking at my heels. @RRN63: Word! Mike Davis' "City of Quartz" was what I gave my cousin when he moved from NY to LA.
	♥ 4:15pm frannie: Hi Sheila & all, with regards to this topic, I really recommend Ada Calhoun's book St. Mark's Is Dead from a few years ago to those who haven't read it. It covers a lot of these same issues of change and gentrification but ultimately takes a somewhat optimistic outlook on things, and is just a really wonderful read.
	4:15pm hotdog on a beach: wait...who is coming to Milwaukee tomorrow (was half-listening)
	4:16pm Cooh John: Nice audible, djsheilab. Ohio, no less.
	♥ 4:16pm chris: hi, Sheila and folks. wow, have missed much discussion and music. though i did catch the last part of the lovely and moody previous set. now settling in for a the rest of the afternoon. ahhhh.
	4:16pm djsheilab: hotdog on a beach—Marika Hackman. You will hear her live set coming up in 15!
	♥ 4:16pm listener james from westwood: @Sheila: And I was hoping to hear you or Trouble DJ at the Ace, someday, too! I'd stayed there 5 years ago and had dug it, well before reading about it in Moss. But just for me, I can't square it anymore. I'll follow my fave DJs to those last indie haunts across the city if I have to! (and of course support the radio station where I hear them every week!)
	♥ 4:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Well - the "Leader of the Free World" is a quadruple bankruptcy NYC Real Estate fraud... altho' it was probly Hollywood who elevated him from injoke to folk hero via Unreality TV...
	4:17pm Jett: @djsheilab Well at lt least we are both still here holding up our end of the deal. Much love to you, Sheila B. <3
	♥ 4:17pm listener james from westwood: @Passaic: Cosign Mike Davis. I grabbed a pamphlet of his back around Bush 41 post-LA uprising that eventually became part, IIRC, of City of Fear. Heavy stuff for this then college senior that I'd never learned anything about.
	4:19pm Listening Out There: Good program today + thanks, host!
	♥ 4:21pm coelacanth∅: Jocelyn sorry yeah, pretty good. glad you're good!
	♥ 4:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I lived in Santa Barbara 16 years - homeless for some of it ...so the Inhumanity of Corporate Paradise was rather visceral - TY Very Much...
	4:22pm djsheilab: A reminder to all of you here with me today, we are raising funds to help keep WFMU afloat. Those of you with lovely lil' 45 records next to your names have already donated, so thank you VERY much! Anyone else want a record next to your name? Only $10 or more! Thanks gang!
	♥ 4:23pm coelacanth∅: RR @4.17 yes it always gets me...like - what sane person didn't despise this man (boy) long before he ran for presidency?
	♥ 4:23pm ParUbi: I looked around. The article is heavily anthologized, but I found a 'free' (legal?) version as part of her book, Reinhabiting Reality.
	4:24pm northguineahills: Blue SKiied and All Clear!!!!
	♥ 4:24pm Passaic River Blues: SLOWDIVE ETERNAL
	4:25pm listener james from westwood: BTW, Mark Hurst just tweeted a thread about Google’s approach to kid-friendly decorations at the Chelsea Market they now own, and HFS that’s one helluva mindshift they’ve got going in terms of taste.
	♥ 4:25pm tim from champaign (now washington): Hello Sheila and fellow Boom Boomers. I'm late due to the Indian buffet. It's not the first time, nor will be the last.
	4:26pm mmoore: XO M
	4:26pm Jocelyn: Hi Tim!
	♥ 4:26pm Michael 98145: i knew there was a reason i was thinking about curry :)
	♥ 4:26pm coelacanth∅: that's legit, tim
	4:26pm djsheilab: frannie—Yes please to optimistic! I'm going to check it out. Thank you!
	4:27pm djsheilab: Hey mmoore!
	♥ 4:27pm Skurky: I wrote down the book Frannie said, Sheila, what was yours called again?
	♥ 4:27pm SSS: Hope the tandoori was juuust right, man!
	4:28pm yes: This is beautiful
	4:28pm djsheilab: Skurky—Jeremiah Moss' Vanishing New York: How A Great City Lost Its Soul.
	♥ 4:28pm Mr. Pumpy: That Chrissie Hynde was beautiful. Thanks, Sheila!
	♥ 4:28pm tim from champaign (now washington): Hi Jocelyn
	♥ 4:29pm Skurky: Thank you
	♥ 4:30pm Planet Tyler: I'll always remember this Slowdive song from the Doom Generation
	4:30pm John from Florham park: @Skurky looks like a good book and I am afraid to read it because I might throw it out a window
	4:30pm Andres: I guessed Luna but will take Slowdive.
	♥ 4:32pm tim from champaign (now washington): NYCites - what's your take on the nightlife ordinances/ neighborhood maintenance on the lower east side that de Blasio unrolled earlier in the week?
	4:33pm tony a: love the chryssie hynd bowie cover- i have a new LP to order, thanks!
	♥ 4:33pm JtotheK: Hmmm. That Marika Hackman show tomorrow is 10 mins from my wife's old apt downtown. There used to be a used record store in that area. I'm sure Marika will find that little tidbit FASCINATING.
	♥ 4:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wild Wigkey : en.m.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 4:35pm JtotheK: We were in the area a few weeks ago for the MKE Stereolab concert (which was superb!)
	♥ 4:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Covering Elliot Smith less than a yard from being A capella certainly got my attention...
	♥ 4:40pm Michael 98145: @RRN63, "The song has been recorded many times, including twice by Nina Simone." Have to check that out ...
	♥ 4:40pm Mick: I already love this Marika Hackman set. Thanks so much Sheila, and thanks for weighing in on the decline and fall of New York - glad some are still out there with eyes open and making things happen.
	♥ 4:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Not as if Nina & Bowie sound particularly alike!..
	4:41pm djsheilab: Ooooh! Another bunch of donations just came in. Will thank you properly on air at the end of the show. Thanks gang!
	♥ 4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Always think that sparse instrumentation is courageous.
	4:48pm Jett: @tony a It's much older than Bowie, originally done by Johnny Mathis, written by Dimitri Tiomkin and Ned Washington for the film of the same title. Nina Simone did a nice cover also.
	♥ 4:49pm chris: really lovely music
	4:50pm Jett: @timfromchampaign DiBlasio is an idiot! I'd vote for anyone before him!
	4:51pm johnzo: yea that es cover def gave me a new perspective on it! so cool!
	♥ 4:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dylan himself said he only started Writing because no one else provided the songs he needed to sing.
	4:53pm MelindafromAustin: We need a miscarriage special
	♥ 4:54pm artbrau: She-bob, Cyndi Lauper.
	4:55pm ?: Shee Bop.
	4:55pm ?: lol!
	♥ 4:55pm chris: realness is sexy
	♥ 4:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Pictures of Lily
	4:56pm brainiac: Hi Bob
	4:57pm Barbie: Glad to hear a lesbian on the air
	4:59pm jane: the band, Ypants, songs prob in fmu library
	♥ 5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Future is Female. If ideas about Democracy or a fairer society mean anything - it has to be - given that I think there are more females than males - but most of the power of any kind rests with males.
	5:02pm Jett: It shouldn't be about male or female, it's about the best person for the job!
	♥ 5:05pm Skurky: Yeah well for thousands of years it was assumed the best person for the job was a man, so "the Future is Female" is perhaps just acknowledging that women deserve equal consideration for said job for once.
	5:06pm ncjay: oh my, I've never heard Skeeter's version of this. and I have it!
	5:07pm ncjay: I guess I know the Inspirations version best. and is this Lesley Gore one with the same name the same song?
	♥ 5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Everything comes down to Jobs & Money Power - ever notice that? The price of everything - & the valuw of nothing as Moss Allison said... But its just like with Racism : How does one become 'qualified'? When you make all the Rules - you can put the Goalposts anywhere you like...
	5:10pm P-90: Love the archaic-sounding guitar solo on Tracy’s version. And everything else!
	♥ 5:10pm tim from champaign (now washington): The guitar and piano sound on Hurts So Bad feels so good!
	♥ 5:11pm JtotheK: Another version of Hurt So Bad that I dig is by The Latin Dimension on Columbia.
	5:11pm Patrick in Hoboken: Enjoyed the Marika interview, will definitely check out her music!
	5:13pm greatb: hi all. algebra suicide is a band i've never know without fmu. so to hear it now and think, hey is that algebra suicide, is a joy!
	5:14pm brainiac: I have this link on my clipboard, and I must post https://youtu.be/KekSaZ160uw?t=58
	5:16pm Faye: wow a show with taeko AND lesbians- two of my favorite things!
	5:17pm djsheilab: What's up Faye! Xoxo
	5:18pm djsheilab: greatb—So glad to hear it!
	5:19pm greatb: now how did i immediately knew that scronk was Coltrane ;)
	5:19pm brainiac: If i had a show on FMU, I would call it "apropos of nothing." Please do not steal this name. Thank you.
	5:29pm Faye: <3 <3 <3

	♥ 5:35pm tim from champaign (now washington): I have Sheila's premium and have listened to it closely. I wouldn't say that it promotes violence towards men but it's more of an caution of what can happen to men due to misbehavior.
	♥ 5:36pm Ike: YES! Hit Spotify over the head with a frying pan!!! LOL.
	5:37pm MariaAldrey: Vancouver, BC!
	♥ 5:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: @tim - Not unlike how being fatally gored by a deer is a warning to hunters.

	5:51pm northguineahills: Just got a different job offer from Disney, this is getting weird....
	5:51pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: Late to the show, but just enough to catch the last 10 minutes. I saw a track from the Hong Kong Dicso compilation played earlier. That album is so awesome! I picked it up from a friend of a friend’s record shop.
	♥ 5:53pm disantlor: cowbell in this song sounds like my slack notification... was a bit intense for a minute there
	5:53pm Rob Kopp: Thanks for today, Sheila, especially for Fabienne Delsol. Her last record On my mind already dated from 2010, so this was a big surprise. See you all next week

	3:29pm Rob Kopp: Yeah. Great cover. Don't know this one by Fabienne. Oh, a new records see. Tomorrow I know where I have to go: to the record shop!
	♥ 3:30pm Ken From Hyde Park: So is it all just a coincidence that this show is scheduled for Friday afternoons and that Sheila rhymes with tequila? Any mixologists on board today to come up with an official beverage for SBB?
	♥ 3:30pm Passaic River Blues: @Rob Kopp: Absolutely!
	3:30pm MariaAldrey: I love fridays just because of this show <3
	♥ 3:32pm The Oscar: Afternoon! "Kickin'" by Whale is a pretty good "get me pregnant" song, but it's pretty clearly treated as a joke. (Also, any day I get to bring up Whale is a good day).
	3:33pm ncjay: ...and then there's the odious "you're having my baby" and its even worse answer song
	3:34pm ncjay: seems to me there's a Hikaru Utada song with "I want your baby" as a chorus. pretty loud song too
	3:34pm P-90: Ha! Mark Hurst has a lot to answer for
	♥ 3:34pm listener james from westwood: THAT BOOK MADE ME SO RIGHTEOUSLY MAD
	3:34pm johnzo: dammit mark why do you have to ruin everything for everybody with yer damn truth speaking
	3:34pm John from Florham park: @Shelia got the book from the library and I am not sure I want to read it
	3:34pm ncjay: ugh. there are more but I need to put this out of my mind
	3:35pm queems: i feel this way about long island city
	♥ 3:35pm listener james from westwood: I walked thru Times Squ for the first time in months back on 9/30, and while I'm not one of these folks who pines for crime and grime, good gods this is not NYC.
	3:35pm Rob Kopp: @Passaic River Blues: The Godzillas als did a cover of Hurtin' kind on an EP. I love him still on that EP is a cover of 'I love her still, I always will' by the legendary (Dutch) Outsiders.
	3:35pm Registered Listener: I always liked the Marla Singer "I wanna have your abortion" line from fight club. Although not really for the eroticism.
	3:35pm robyn and 6-yr old mini glistener ajax: i feel you, it’s so sad! the fall of gotham
	3:36pm P-90: Most depressing example for me: Bleecker Street is GONE
	♥ 3:36pm listener james from westwood: If you haven't gotten to the part where Moss discusses the gentrification of the Breslin into the Ace Hotel, know that it got me to break an upcoming reservation at the hotel for a work anniversary. I was so disgusted that I called mid-read and canceled the room. Was so disgusted at marginalized folks being put in the street that I wanted nothing to do with its cause.
	3:36pm Jocelyn: Right? I lived on the Bowery when you still had to walk around sleeping drunks on the sidewalk.
	♥ 3:36pm Ken From Hyde Park: But there's a cool new Nordstrom's on 57th Street!
	3:36pm PKNY: I'm reading "Vanishing New York" now as well, such a great read, but so so depressing.
	♥ 3:37pm Phillippe Bastille: Hi Friday friends!
	3:37pm Bob a: But visitors come away saying “but it’s the biggest Applebee’s I’ve ever seen”.
	3:38pm Jocelyn: I’ve loved Jeremiah’s blog for years and was so happy he wrote a book.
	♥ 3:38pm Phillippe Bastille: Sad part is once Amazon finishes tightening the noose, the Targets and Marshalls and HomeGoods will be gone next and it'll look like Detroit
	3:38pm Jocelyn: Happy Friday Phillippe!
	♥ 3:38pm listener james from westwood: I visited Pittsburgh for the first time in 2015, and it felt so much more welcoming as a city vs. the strip mall Manhattan is becoming. The only thing I'm happy about is that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the rep for the part of the Bx I grew up in.
	3:39pm P-90: Sheila B book blurb: “Exceptional writing and REALLY AWFUL content!”
	♥ 3:39pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey Jocelyn! How's life?
	3:39pm John from Florham park: @Shelia since I am back in North Jersey I have been afraid to go in the city because of what and the book are saying
	3:39pm karen eliot: it’s so disheartening.
	♥ 3:39pm Passaic River Blues: @PKNY: After reading his blog years ago, I gave "Vanishing New York" to my father-in-law, a Brooklyn native and partisan, for Christmas. He had the same view: great and necessary book, unrelentingly depressing.
	♥ 3:39pm listener james from westwood: The spread of Google around where I used to work by the Chelsea Market alone is a Lovecraftian nightmare, complete with HPL's racism.
	♥ 3:40pm Listener Howard and the Cats: I am absolutely with you on this, Sheila. I left NYC 10 years ago, after being there for 20. I never thought I would ever leave, but almost everything I was there for just disappeared around me... And I'm also having strict new phone rules for myself, glad to see I'm not the only one!
	3:41pm johnzo: speaking of cities sucking... I have to go to court for taping a gig poster to a light pole. it's a misdemeanor. bs.
	3:41pm Jocelyn: Phillipe, Pretty good thank you. How’s everything there?
	♥ 3:42pm steveo: Hi Sheila! Great to hear you & your excellent records!
	3:44pm Daybreak and the Adventure Begins...: Shelia you are sadly broadcasting from a similar spot to the lost NYC. I’m coming down to WFMU on Sat for Karaoke, and I was so surprised the 1st time I came down last year and saw how much Monty sticks out like a glorious sore thumb in that part of JC. It made me so glad that I swag for life!
	3:47pm djsheilab: Daybreak and the Adventure Begins...—I actually walked around Jersey City looking for a slice of pizza at a new spot and it was just so awful walking amongst all those lifeless buildings. HELP!
	3:47pm djsheilab: Thanks to all of you for chiming in on this topic. I know so many of you feel the same way. It's a helpless feeling.
	3:49pm djsheilab: johnzo—THAT IS INSANE!
	3:50pm John from Florham park: @Shelia here in north jersey in the Morris county area it has really changed,everyone is building McMansions and stuff
	♥ 3:50pm Michael 98145: sadly, so much of this country is becoming only about money and more money
	3:50pm northguineahills: Fishmans, so niiiiiiicccceeee…..!
	♥ 3:50pm Michael 98145: for the few
	♥ 3:51pm listener james from westwood: Oy, good point re: the pizza quest. I feel like FMU is one last bit of old NYC/NJ holding its own, as it did against the floodwaters during Sandy.
	3:51pm djsheilab: Michael 98145—You said it.
	♥ 3:51pm Passaic River Blues: @NGH: Fishmans hitting the spot!
	♥ 3:52pm Michael 98145: it takes a village to support an FMU
	3:52pm Rob Kopp: Don't know if there are iTunes users on a Mac amongst you, but if so: don't upgrade to OS Catalina! iTunes will be replaced by app Music, and in Music you can only search on 5 fields (Song, Artist, Album, Composer, Playlist) and not any more on the other fields. So not on column Remarks! So here I am with my iTunes library of 40.000 songs and I can't properly search in it anymore. You can't install iTunes on Catalina and you can't go back to OS Mojave! I can't believe Apple removed the filter bar in app Music.
	3:52pm northguineahills: @Michael: I see it every day around my bros. and who they hang out w/. All they care about is the potential to make more money and showing said status, political ethics be damned.... (I need one of these jobs to hit so I can get my own place again, soon, even GIS for Disney would work for me [I've worked for the federal gov't before, could that be worse?])
	3:53pm djsheilab: listener james from westwood—I haven't gotten to the part about the Breslin + Ace yet. It's not somewhere I frequent but I have DJ'd there a few times.
	3:53pm Daybreak and the Adventure Begins...: Well 1) you can call me just Daybreak, I change the rest of the handle regularly. 2) You get to broadcast from and represent a mental and physical splinter of the correct reality that shall not be removed! 3) If we need to sing our damn troubles away we should all do it at Monty on Saturday, I’ll duet with my mediocre singing voice with anyone. In FMU singing terms, I only put my mouth where my hoof is willing to go (if that sounds creepy, I apologize, sometimes the FMU parlance comes out that way)
	♥ 3:53pm Phillippe Bastille: @Jocelyn pretty good here, can't complain!
	3:53pm djsheilab: Thanks for the warning, Rob Kopp!
	♥ 3:54pm Michael 98145: @ngh, anyone with a job with benefits is lucky these days..
	3:56pm Daybreak and the Adventure Begins...: John from FP, Come to Boonton in Morris county! Ignore the giant Walmart on Whooton st. We still got unique houses and a main st with stores, art, and a venue for high and a venue for low!
	3:56pm John from Florham park: Today has become such a bummer after hearing how everything in. NYC is becoming gentrification
	3:56pm ncjay: @Rob Kopp oh no, thanks for the info! I held off updating (can't call it upgrading) and I would be lost without my filter bar
	♥ 3:57pm coelacanth∅: greetings Sheila & Sophisticats
	3:57pm Rob Kopp: I've phoned with the helpdesk of Apple today. All I can do is wait until they've put the filterbar back in app Music... ff they are going to do it. If there are users where the same happened: please fill in the feedback form on Apple/feedback. The more complaints, hopefully the sooner they do something about it.
	3:57pm John from Florham park: @Daybreak thanks for the invite
	♥ 3:58pm SSS: I used to visit my sister in the East Village in the mid sixties. I lived there myself in the late 80s, left just as the downward trajectory of gentrification swung to upward one. VERY evident to me that it was a multi decade very planned and nuanced take over of the real estate. The players through those decades? the cops, civil servants in the building departments, and most importantly the Mob.
	3:58pm Daybreak and the Adventure Begins...: No problem John!!!
	3:58pm Jocelyn: I hate when they merged music on the phone to where when I tap on an artists name instead of taking me to my list of that artist’s music it shows me that artist in their store. And the books app is a mess.
	♥ 3:58pm SSS: Oops! Left out Giuliani.
	3:59pm P-90: Aloha coel!
	3:59pm Rob Kopp: My advice; don't update/upgrade before you are sure the filterbar is back in app Music.
	♥ 4:01pm coelacanth∅: bonjour P-90!
	♥ 4:01pm Michael 98145: i've always lived on the left coast, so i don't know from dirt, but hasn't NYC always been a magnet for financial types with no investment in their adopted city? i am surprised -anything- is left standing.
	4:01pm John from Florham park: @Jocelyn I refuse to pay 10 dollars a month fri the privilege of using Apple Music, when there are still wonderful stations like this on the dial or other stations I can get through my iPhone
	4:02pm editor_b: "We looked into the void" "We looked into each other"
	4:02pm djsheilab: Hello coelacanth∅, SSS, editor_b + those of you just joining!
	4:02pm yes: Hello everyone . Seems I missed the bummer portion of the program.
	4:02pm Jett: Nice to hear your beautiful voice on the air! @djsheilab
	4:03pm northguineahills: @Michael: anyone w/ a job is lucky these days. I have gotten rejected for Target, Walmart, UPS, Walgreens, etc, b/c my resume is all tech GIS jobs since my undergrad years (volunteering charity work be damned), so, I now have no money, but I keep on trying for any job.
	♥ 4:03pm chresti: Hi!
	4:03pm northguineahills: (But, I'm in the best shape I've been in 10 years due to the extra time has allowed me to keep fit...)
	4:03pm editor_b: My Friday is not complete without processing photos while listening to Sheila B.
	4:04pm Jocelyn: Hi coel!
	♥ 4:04pm Michael 98145: @ngh, really hope you find something soon ...
	♥ 4:04pm ParUbi: There's an essay by Freya Mathews that speaks to this issue of endless and relentless renovation that some of you might find interesting-- "Letting the World Grow Old"
	4:05pm djsheilab: Definitely. Thank you ParUbi.
	4:06pm Jocelyn: Phillippe, I’ll never pay for or use Apple Music. But the absurdity that they redirect everything to their store. They’ve made it difficult to even load your own music on their devices. It’s creepy and annoying.
	♥ 4:06pm coelacanth∅: hey Jocelyn! how ya been?
	♥ 4:09pm SSS: Hey...Don't mean to bring up things a drag. I feel resistances should examine and understand their enemies. It is nothing short of astounding that the whole planet is still being jerked around by these same #hit*eads. The E.V. was just practice for them.....I'll stop now.
	4:10pm Jocelyn: Coel, good! How are you?
	♥ 4:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Here's a book about. L A. from way back 1990 - just to make it bicoastal : en.m.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 4:12pm Michael 98145: love a DJ on fire :)
	4:12pm William Main: I went to NYU, too. When did you graduate?
	♥ 4:12pm Mark Hurst: Sorry, Sheila, my fault! :)
	4:12pm John from Florham park: @Shelia I am sure you used stronger language then that to NYU:)
	4:12pm Jett: @djsheilab NYC isn't a shell.of itself, I miss seeing what St.Marks Place was all about, walking through the village, I might as well be walking through some unknown rural.town. Yes it is depressing but New York will always be my home town, anyway!
	4:12pm chalmers: I would buy an MP3 recording of Sheila’s phone call with NYU.
	4:13pm BH: I've found things to be weirdly relaxed using my phone in bed at like 2:30am with no noise around. Nothing is particularly going on in the Western Hemisphere at that time and it's very peaceful too. Then I wake up later and put my phone on the charger
	4:13pm johnzo: blame the messenger! it's all mark's fault!
	♥ 4:13pm Skurky: Should I get this book to enrage my native NY'er fiancé?
	♥ 4:14pm Passaic River Blues: @NGH: My wife and I were recently remembering Trump's beyond-pointless, temper-tantrum/gov't shutdown and all the collateral damage it caused. I told her about a guy down in FL who was recently hired for a geography project only to see it gutted due to an interruption of government funding (this was my hazy recollection of your comments from several months ago). She was as appalled as I was. I've been working a series of temporary, contract jobs for the last 3.5 years and nearly always feel the abyss licking at my heels. @RRN63: Word! Mike Davis' "City of Quartz" was what I gave my cousin when he moved from NY to LA.
	♥ 4:15pm frannie: Hi Sheila & all, with regards to this topic, I really recommend Ada Calhoun's book St. Mark's Is Dead from a few years ago to those who haven't read it. It covers a lot of these same issues of change and gentrification but ultimately takes a somewhat optimistic outlook on things, and is just a really wonderful read.
	4:15pm hotdog on a beach: wait...who is coming to Milwaukee tomorrow (was half-listening)
	4:16pm Cooh John: Nice audible, djsheilab. Ohio, no less.
	♥ 4:16pm chris: hi, Sheila and folks. wow, have missed much discussion and music. though i did catch the last part of the lovely and moody previous set. now settling in for a the rest of the afternoon. ahhhh.
	4:16pm djsheilab: hotdog on a beach—Marika Hackman. You will hear her live set coming up in 15!
	♥ 4:16pm listener james from westwood: @Sheila: And I was hoping to hear you or Trouble DJ at the Ace, someday, too! I'd stayed there 5 years ago and had dug it, well before reading about it in Moss. But just for me, I can't square it anymore. I'll follow my fave DJs to those last indie haunts across the city if I have to! (and of course support the radio station where I hear them every week!)
	♥ 4:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Well - the "Leader of the Free World" is a quadruple bankruptcy NYC Real Estate fraud... altho' it was probly Hollywood who elevated him from injoke to folk hero via Unreality TV...
	4:17pm Jett: @djsheilab Well at lt least we are both still here holding up our end of the deal. Much love to you, Sheila B. <3
	♥ 4:17pm listener james from westwood: @Passaic: Cosign Mike Davis. I grabbed a pamphlet of his back around Bush 41 post-LA uprising that eventually became part, IIRC, of City of Fear. Heavy stuff for this then college senior that I'd never learned anything about.
	4:19pm Listening Out There: Good program today + thanks, host!
	♥ 4:21pm coelacanth∅: Jocelyn sorry yeah, pretty good. glad you're good!
	♥ 4:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I lived in Santa Barbara 16 years - homeless for some of it ...so the Inhumanity of Corporate Paradise was rather visceral - TY Very Much...
	4:22pm djsheilab: A reminder to all of you here with me today, we are raising funds to help keep WFMU afloat. Those of you with lovely lil' 45 records next to your names have already donated, so thank you VERY much! Anyone else want a record next to your name? Only $10 or more! Thanks gang!
	♥ 4:23pm coelacanth∅: RR @4.17 yes it always gets me...like - what sane person didn't despise this man (boy) long before he ran for presidency?
	♥ 4:23pm ParUbi: I looked around. The article is heavily anthologized, but I found a 'free' (legal?) version as part of her book, Reinhabiting Reality.
	4:24pm northguineahills: Blue SKiied and All Clear!!!!
	♥ 4:24pm Passaic River Blues: SLOWDIVE ETERNAL
	4:25pm listener james from westwood: BTW, Mark Hurst just tweeted a thread about Google’s approach to kid-friendly decorations at the Chelsea Market they now own, and HFS that’s one helluva mindshift they’ve got going in terms of taste.
	♥ 4:25pm tim from champaign (now washington): Hello Sheila and fellow Boom Boomers. I'm late due to the Indian buffet. It's not the first time, nor will be the last.
	4:26pm mmoore: XO M
	4:26pm Jocelyn: Hi Tim!
	♥ 4:26pm Michael 98145: i knew there was a reason i was thinking about curry :)

	4:26pm djsheilab: frannie—Yes please to optimistic! I'm going to check it out. Thank you!
	4:27pm djsheilab: Hey mmoore!
	♥ 4:27pm Skurky: I wrote down the book Frannie said, Sheila, what was yours called again?
	♥ 4:27pm SSS: Hope the tandoori was juuust right, man!
	4:28pm yes: This is beautiful
	4:28pm djsheilab: Skurky—Jeremiah Moss' Vanishing New York: How A Great City Lost Its Soul.
	♥ 4:28pm Mr. Pumpy: That Chrissie Hynde was beautiful. Thanks, Sheila!
	♥ 4:28pm tim from champaign (now washington): Hi Jocelyn
	♥ 4:29pm Skurky: Thank you
	♥ 4:30pm Planet Tyler: I'll always remember this Slowdive song from the Doom Generation
	4:30pm John from Florham park: @Skurky looks like a good book and I am afraid to read it because I might throw it out a window
	4:30pm Andres: I guessed Luna but will take Slowdive.
	♥ 4:32pm tim from champaign (now washington): NYCites - what's your take on the nightlife ordinances/ neighborhood maintenance on the lower east side that de Blasio unrolled earlier in the week?
	4:33pm tony a: love the chryssie hynd bowie cover- i have a new LP to order, thanks!
	♥ 4:33pm JtotheK: Hmmm. That Marika Hackman show tomorrow is 10 mins from my wife's old apt downtown. There used to be a used record store in that area. I'm sure Marika will find that little tidbit FASCINATING.
	♥ 4:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wild Wigkey : en.m.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 4:35pm JtotheK: We were in the area a few weeks ago for the MKE Stereolab concert (which was superb!)
	♥ 4:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Covering Elliot Smith less than a yard from being A capella certainly got my attention...
	♥ 4:40pm Michael 98145: @RRN63, "The song has been recorded many times, including twice by Nina Simone." Have to check that out ...
	♥ 4:40pm Mick: I already love this Marika Hackman set. Thanks so much Sheila, and thanks for weighing in on the decline and fall of New York - glad some are still out there with eyes open and making things happen.
	♥ 4:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Not as if Nina & Bowie sound particularly alike!..
	4:41pm djsheilab: Ooooh! Another bunch of donations just came in. Will thank you properly on air at the end of the show. Thanks gang!
	♥ 4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Always think that sparse instrumentation is courageous.
	4:48pm Jett: @tony a It's much older than Bowie, originally done by Johnny Mathis, written by Dimitri Tiomkin and Ned Washington for the film of the same title. Nina Simone did a nice cover also.
	♥ 4:49pm chris: really lovely music
	4:50pm Jett: @timfromchampaign DiBlasio is an idiot! I'd vote for anyone before him!
	4:51pm johnzo: yea that es cover def gave me a new perspective on it! so cool!
	♥ 4:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Dylan himself said he only started Writing because no one else provided the songs he needed to sing.
	4:53pm MelindafromAustin: We need a miscarriage special
	♥ 4:54pm artbrau: She-bob, Cyndi Lauper.
	4:55pm ?: Shee Bop.

	4:56pm brainiac: Hi Bob
	4:57pm Barbie: Glad to hear a lesbian on the air
	4:59pm jane: the band, Ypants, songs prob in fmu library
	♥ 5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Future is Female. If ideas about Democracy or a fairer society mean anything - it has to be - given that I think there are more females than males - but most of the power of any kind rests with males.
	5:02pm Jett: It shouldn't be about male or female, it's about the best person for the job!
	♥ 5:05pm Skurky: Yeah well for thousands of years it was assumed the best person for the job was a man, so "the Future is Female" is perhaps just acknowledging that women deserve equal consideration for said job for once.
	5:06pm ncjay: oh my, I've never heard Skeeter's version of this. and I have it!
	5:07pm ncjay: I guess I know the Inspirations version best. and is this Lesley Gore one with the same name the same song?
	♥ 5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Everything comes down to Jobs & Money Power - ever notice that? The price of everything - & the valuw of nothing as Moss Allison said... But its just like with Racism : How does one become 'qualified'? When you make all the Rules - you can put the Goalposts anywhere you like...
	5:10pm P-90: Love the archaic-sounding guitar solo on Tracy’s version. And everything else!
	♥ 5:10pm tim from champaign (now washington): The guitar and piano sound on Hurts So Bad feels so good!
	♥ 5:11pm JtotheK: Another version of Hurt So Bad that I dig is by The Latin Dimension on Columbia.
	5:11pm Patrick in Hoboken: Enjoyed the Marika interview, will definitely check out her music!
	5:13pm greatb: hi all. algebra suicide is a band i've never know without fmu. so to hear it now and think, hey is that algebra suicide, is a joy!

	5:18pm djsheilab: greatb—So glad to hear it!
	5:19pm greatb: now how did i immediately knew that scronk was Coltrane ;)
	5:19pm brainiac: If i had a show on FMU, I would call it "apropos of nothing." Please do not steal this name. Thank you.
	5:29pm Faye: <3 <3 <3
	5:34pm Jett: ooh, if you did those things to me, you might hurt me. I'm too much in love with you, hope those things never happen. <3
	♥ 5:35pm tim from champaign (now washington): I have Sheila's premium and have listened to it closely. I wouldn't say that it promotes violence towards men but it's more of an caution of what can happen to men due to misbehavior.
	♥ 5:36pm Ike: YES! Hit Spotify over the head with a frying pan!!! LOL.
	5:37pm MariaAldrey: Vancouver, BC!
	♥ 5:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: @tim - Not unlike how being fatally gored by a deer is a warning to hunters.
	♥ 5:47pm chris: i think Lagunitas should be pronounced, "FMU Forever!" and you're very welcome, Sheila.
	5:51pm northguineahills: Just got a different job offer from Disney, this is getting weird....
	5:51pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: Late to the show, but just enough to catch the last 10 minutes. I saw a track from the Hong Kong Dicso compilation played earlier. That album is so awesome! I picked it up from a friend of a friend’s record shop.
	♥ 5:53pm disantlor: cowbell in this song sounds like my slack notification... was a bit intense for a minute there
	5:53pm Rob Kopp: Thanks for today, Sheila, especially for Fabienne Delsol. Her last record On my mind already dated from 2010, so this was a big surprise. See you all next week
	5:55pm ncjay: ha. I have that Sandra De Sa LP, it's great
	5:55pm Stashu: <3 Love you
