	12:04am Chop Scott: Very happy to have you on the schedule! Cheers Ira!!
	12:04am Ira: I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm hitting the hay. Look at the time!
	12:05am Joe B: greetings Ira and everyone
	12:05am Vince from Pearl: Congrats on your time slot!
	12:05am John L: Rearranging my work-from-home schedule so I can listen in real time. For a little bit, anyway. Hey Joe!!!
	12:06am JakeGould: Greetings! Must be weird starting a late night shift during these days of time and hours and wake up just being not that important.
	12:06am Ira: Gotta warn you, Joe B.--this song's long enough to be a Neil Young number.
	12:07am Joe B: can't get rid of me that easily - 'working from home'
	12:07am Joe B: hey john!
	12:08am jj.: ah, making room for the extended cuts, already learning the ways of the weekly DJ!
	12:10am mariano: Haha! I always imagined that being a prog-rock DJ in the 70s was probably the cushiest job in radio.
	12:10am Rory: I like the new skedge! Bill Zebub is back and now 3 shows playing the heavy jams!
	12:13am Ken From Hyde Park: Greetings, Ira and Iranians! Welcome to your new gig!
	12:16am Ira: I really am very excited to be here!
	12:17am Hoboken Jack: Hello Ira, Joe, HP Ken, all! It's as if Hanukkah were being held on 8 consecutive Tuesdays!
	12:19am Ira: Are you looking over my shoulder, Jack?
	12:21am Hoboken Jack: On a step ladder, wearing a mask, six feet away from your shoulder.
	12:22am She Chimp: Happy to be listening while I work in LA.
	12:23am flashbazbo: Hey! Tuned in in time for once. Looking forward to this.
	12:25am wmbogart: Arts for Art held a little Zoom birthday party for Marhall Allen's 96th a few weeks back! Any group that recognizes an arrival day is good in my book. Looking forward to checking out the other groups in the playlist comments throughout the night.
	12:25am Vertual: Thanks WFMU for again interfering with my sleep schedule. I know i can wait for the archives...but i love listening live.
	12:27am Joe B: loving this swamp dogg album
	12:27am Joeybug69: Are we gonna get traffic on the 1’s, weather every 4 and sports at quarter after & quarter of?
	12:27am Rory: All hail Marshall Allen!
	12:27am Gaylord Fields: Auspicious start, Ira! Fortunately, I won't be faced with the Ira vs. Mannix dilemma this sets up. I'll listen to the show's third hour via archive, and I'll DVR Mike Connors, Gail Fisher, et al., while asleep.
	12:28am Ira: Gaylord, it may be a controversial statement, but I'm not afraid to take an unpopular position: We're enjoying Cannon more than Mannix these days.
	12:30am JakeGould: Gaylord’s master class of classic TV crime fighters is really something.
	12:30am Joe B: maybe it will be the neil diamond episode of Mannix
	12:30am Ira: Or the Buffalo Springfield one.
	12:31am ToTetsu: and when you get old enough, its the the memories that leave and the people who stay
	12:31am JakeGould: “We're enjoying Cannon more than Mannix these days.” Waaaay too polarizing. WFMU is not the place for this.
	12:31am Georgia: Joe b, I’ve been watching so much mannix on me tv and have never seen a neil diamond episode. Are you making that up?
	12:32am Ira: Sorry, JakeGould, it needed to be said.
	12:33am Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Jack. Please provide us reports that our DJ is keeping himself properly hydrated.
	12:33am Joe B: season 1! I will not give setlist spoilers either!
	12:33am ultradamno: Ironsides, he got things done.
	12:34am Chop Scott: Indeed, there's Mannix but Cannon!! A true gourmand.
	12:34am JakeGould: I think DJs are being forced to take some classic TV detective pro/con stance but I cannot speculate any further out for the good of the station. Strapping myself in.
	12:35am Joeybug69: Still waiting for them to bring Kojak back to the lineup.
	12:35am Joe B: @Jake - well if that is the case I will be out of this one, team Rockford all the way!
	12:35am mariano: No love for Barnaby Jones?
	12:35am ultradamno: They did a reboot, briefly, and they made his name Ironsides. Like they didn't want that to be his nickname, so he's Joe Ironsides, or whatever, who just happens to be in a wheelchair. Weirdly brilliant.
	12:35am Gaylord Fields: Ira, I skew more towards Cannon too, but seeing as your post-show travel regimen likely interferes with your Cannon viewing, I wanted to honor your sacrifice for doing this show. Also, Lou Rawls was the guest star on yesterday's Mannix.
	12:36am JakeGould: Here we go… The libs and their Kojak and Rockford allegiances. The agenda is so clear here.
	12:36am McGroovey: I haven't seen Mannix since I was a kid. I loved that show. Well, I loved pretty much all cop and detective shows when I was a kid.
	12:36am Rory: @Jake Don’t dismantle my world view it’s a free society!
	12:37am Ira: Mannix created by Levinson and Link, who created Columbo. Columbo's (even) better.
	12:37am Chop Scott: The other night on Mannix featured Lou Rawls--and William Marshall!
	12:37am Todd-o-phonic Todd: Is it too late to put a vote in for M Squad?
	12:37am Rory: My grandfather use to say that.
	12:37am Vertual: Polarizing is right. Everyone in my family thinks i'm crazy watching 50 year old TV shows - even game shows. They can keep Netflix. I got Concentration among others.
	12:37am Ignore Function: Cool show so far, ITK.
	12:37am Gaylord Fields: @JakeGould: I actually named a recent show of mine "A QM Production" — I forgot exactly why, but it made sense at the time. Probably just wishful thinking.
	12:38am mariano: Till I was 9 I only saw Mannix, Cannon, Quincy, etc dubbed in Spanish. I swear the same actor voiced each lead character. It was kind of shocking when I heard their actual voices.
	12:38am Todd-o-phonic Todd: Also were all tapes of McMillan & Wife destroyed?
	12:38am Joe B: Jake, I am about to make another shocking statement - Ira, Stan and I are the only FMU DJs to play more than one cut from Antietam's excellent Opus Mixtum album. an outrage!
	12:38am McGroovey: @Todd do you mean Mod Squad? Yeah, I loved that one, too.
	12:38am Ira: My mom was on Concentration.
	12:38am Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Joe B: Talk about an unholy trinity!
	12:39am ultradamno: I found myself watching Time Tunnel a lot recently. It's just happens to be on when I'm eating. It's pretty good.
	12:39am JakeGould: DJs should only express their classic TV show preferences via their musical choices and not through their actual opinions let along literal playlist titles. What has happened to this station I would drink all afternoon to?!? A shande!
	12:39am Todd-o-phonic Todd: @McGroovey: No, M Squad is a 50's show that I watched on DVD. The star is Lee Marvin. It's pretty great...
	12:39am McGroovey: Wait. McMillan & Wife got wife? The horror.
	12:39am Hoboken Jack: Hello pt 2 TOPT, Georgia, McGroove, Gaylord. My mom has concentration issues.
	12:40am JakeGould: Lee Marvin looks like how nicotine smells… Also, the title of “McMillan and Wife” always cracks me up… “…and Wife” Hahaha!
	12:40am Vertual: Wow. I still suck at those puzzles! And think, you could win a new Chevette in 1974.
	12:40am Joe B: @Todd - whoops make it a fab four - Rich Hazelton also has done it!
	12:40am Gaylord Fields: I've recently fallen hard for Highway Patrol — but probably not as hard as Broderick Crawford after showing up on set well schnockered following another bender.
	12:41am Ira: I miss the Concentration-y puzzles in Ballantine bottle caps.
	12:42am Joeybug69: 10-4
	12:42am JakeGould: @JoeB: “Opus Mixtum” wow! I learn so much about tolerance via tolerating DJs extreme opinions here.
	12:42am McGroovey: Huh. I love those old fifties TV shows, because they were a bit more like radio, and I love radio drama. Drammer. Some are in YouTube. Most didn't last far into the sixties. The TV version of Richard Diamond is good. It's different from the radio version. I think it stars a young David Jansen?
	12:43am McGroovey: And my phone makes random substitutions that I don't always catch. McMillan and Wife got WIPED?
	12:44am mariano: Speech! Speech! Speech!
	12:44am JakeGould: Also seriously, I have been watching classic Cagney and Bogart films. Not too many worth watching to be honest. But I like that old direction where everything is well composed and staged and acting actually had to work. Also, “White Heat” is such a messed up film… So clearly the basis for Tony and Livia’s creepy relationship on “The Sopranos.”
	12:45am McGroovey: Hey, my mom has concentration issues also, but she was never on Concentration. She still has all her faculties, though. I shoulda called my mom tonight
	12:46am JakeGould: What we you going to call her?
	12:48am ultradamno: Pouring one out for Tom now.
	12:48am Joe B: Dennis Quaid as DJ Ira the K in "The Rookie"
	12:49am Ira: Saw White Heat at the Film Forum on Mother's Day one year. Lou Reed in attendance.
	12:50am JakeGould: Now that is something!
	12:50am McGroovey: @jaka uh-hahah.
	12:50am Joe B: wasn't a Get Crazy screening?
	12:51am JakeGould: @ultradamno: Tom who? The cat who was constantly trying to murder Jerry?
	12:51am Scott Williams: I'm handing the skeleton key over to Carol, g'night all! Ira, sounding great, so glad you join the full-timers!
	12:52am Vertual: I went to one of Lou's book signings; be was so polite. He signed a CD for me...and i lost it probably when i was staying at the Y.
	12:52am JakeGould: Bye Scott!
	12:52am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Scott. See ya at three.
	12:52am Ira: Goodnight, Scott. Thanks for all your help!!!!
	12:53am ultradamno: Dot Dot Dot Dash Dash Dash Dot Dot Dot
	12:54am Paper Moog: I read that as “William Hooker” and therefore did not recognize the voice of my dear friend Aleta Hayes. She sang a (much shorter) Neil Young song for me once.
	12:56am JakeGould: Bye all! Will learn to be more open minded about classic TV detectives.
	1:02am Paper Moog: Aleta Hayes the vocalist for William Parker also leads a dance troupe at Stanford called Chocolate Heads
	1:06am Paper Moog: It was bad enough losing my hair but now it looks like I’ve lost my nose and mouth
	1:07am Joeybug69: Croon long & prosper.
	1:08am Todd-o-phonic Todd: Can we hear "Common People" by William Shatner next?
	1:08am Joe B: former Columbo villain Leonard Nimoy
	1:09am CMF: I can't handle this.
	1:09am Joe B: Todd, sounds like you are ready to compete with Jim Price Segue Services!
	1:09am Paper Moog: “dream to Kling to...”?
	1:09am Ira: Joe, I was thinking the same thing. Also cast member on Mission: Impossible after everyone (read: I) stopped watching it.
	1:10am Hoboken Jack: TOPT = yessssss Never before noticed that Nimoy has a bit of a Jonathan Richman groove.
	1:10am Joe B: @Ira - ha yes!
	1:10am pp: i never would have guessed that was Nimoy. thought it was jonathan richman in his old age.
	1:10am Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Joe B: I can't compete with Jim Price.
	1:11am pp: hoboken jack - dibs :)
	1:17am eeeds: is dot dash by wire too obvious for this set?
	1:17am Hoboken Jack: PP, I'll buy you a Coke.
	1:19am Joe B: Tom Dash - a DJ worth saluting for sure!
	1:20am BH: hopefully Scott doesn't run out of material at 5:59
	1:23am pp: brilliant feigned resignation barely concealed by david cross
	1:24am Mike W: yayyy
	1:31am ToTetsu: that reminds me of this episode of 7sDelay where they prerecorded the show and then left gaps for the callers www.wfmu.org... but they recorded it a few days before 9/11 so it didn't get played for years.
	1:32am ToTetsu: no not that one..
	1:34am Vincent!: Request!: Evergladed by Sammy! Love your Ira! Thank you for the great show!
	1:35am Dungaroos Kipawah: Hot dang, I love the Piggies!
	1:36am Jim H: G’night all. Love it when the Comment board is almost as entertaining as the tunes. Who says I can’t mutitask? Great show!
	1:37am Ira: Jim H., I try to set the bar low with the tunes. That certainly helps.
	1:41am ToTetsu: oh no that was the right one.. a pre-recorded edition with live callers www.wfmu.org...
	1:42am Hoboken Jack: Glands! Enjoyed buying the reissues in Athens.
	1:44am Joe B: oh yes! great LB tune
	1:46am Hubig Pie: Happy sounds
	1:50am Dungaroos Kipawah: I’m late to the conversation, but would like to add my useless 2 cents: I was at Film Forum one time seeing Peckinpah’s RIDE THE HIGH COUNTRY. 15 min into the film, Lou Reed and, I guess, an assistant, entered the theatre noisily, looking for seats. The usu FF crabs started shushing & hissing, sweet Lou prattled on, finding the two adjacent seats in the middle of a crowded row, provoking more imprecations and yammers. Lou fell asleep, rather loudly, abt 5 min later, a kind of rhythmic droning snore (said some reviews) then woke up after another 45 min, said loudly “THIS MOVIE SUCKS, LET’S GO” and then proceeded to upset the already upset cluckers and tsk-ers. One of his better late performances, I now can’t see RTHC without thinking of Lou Reed. @Todd: M Squad is great. Have you ever seen Peckinpah’s The Westerner series. I bet Sterling Morrison loved it. @ Chop Scott: that Lou Rawls Mannix was the Citizen Kane of Mannix-es. Tops. Look for the ep w Buffalo Springfield
	1:52am Joe B: my favorite Glands song is When I Laugh (Swim is great also of course!)
	1:53am McGroovey: I love the Lou Reed story. Do I wish I got out more in the '90s and had my own Lou Reed stories? Oh, I don't know.
	1:54am Joe B: But Amanda is probably watching MASH
	1:55am Joe B: Lew can also serve as an eddie haskell tribute as he guested on leave it to beaver
	1:57am Joe B: yes, I know too much about tv show guest spots
	1:57am Hubig Pie: Lou was a harsh movie critic
	2:00am bobby jay: Welcome Ira...a happy birthday to the great Howlin' Wolf and Judy Garland...'I asked for water(she gave me a rainbow').....
	2:01am BH: The concept of John Wayne as Genghis Khan was introduced to a few people on Sunday night during the Bruce Lee 30 for 30 on ESPN
	2:03am Tookie Wuthry Guffy: acclimation is needed. i did not realize that i had synced periods with wfmu. but i listen constant enough to feel disoriented at the difference. thanks for pointing it out .
	2:04am Hubig Pie: Girl Scout Heroin
	2:06am mariano: BH: I saw The Conqueror when I was a kid, it was so bad. Definitely good for a couple of yuks though. "Ah feel this Tartar woman is for me. And my blood says: take her."
	2:14am Adorno: Gil Scott Heron + James Baldwin
	2:24am BTH: The first time I visited NYC (1998?), I just assumed I would run into Lou Reed at some point, because hey, who is more NYC than Lou? I saw that Film Forum was showing a premier of a Nico documentary, got tickets, and who did I see darting out of the movie as soon as the credits rolled? Lou and Laurie - Highlight of the trip.
	2:26am She Chimp: Whoa this Jan & Dean is awesome.
	2:27am Dungaroos Kipawah: This is one of my favorite Jon. Richman lps, front to back
	2:32am pp: The gist of YMG
	2:34am Dungaroos Kipawah: The woman who played Dr. Cunningham on the Odd Couple is on tonite’s Mannix. Ira’s soundtrack seems to mesh w this part
	2:35am Joe B: @DK - she was also in ode to billy joe!
	2:39am Dungaroos Kipawah: @ I need to watch that
	2:41am 5redpandas: Les rallizes dénudés!!!
	2:42am 5redpandas: My former bandmate was always a little disappointed when someone spotted the les rallizes dénudés influence, the snob.
	2:43am Joe B: @DK - she was good on the odd couple but her presence also meant fewer schemes where oscar calls crazy rhoda zimmerman
	2:44am mariano: Webstream down? I'm getting a connection error though my connection's fine on other sites.
	2:45am BH: it's down for me too
	2:45am Ken From Hyde Park: Down for me, too. We need Mr. Steed and Mrs. Emma Peel on the case!
	2:45am ben abs: Works on the app
	2:46am Ken From Hyde Park: Stream is back. Yay!
	2:47am Ira: Les Rallizes Dénudés too much genius for the stream to handle!
	2:47am Joe Belock: air signal fine
	2:49am mariano: Yep, it's back!
	2:51am Hubig Pie: Connection in and out but now I'm out, G'night all
	2:53am mariano: 'Night Hubig. And thanks so much Ira, amazing show! Thanks to Scott and his Skeleton cohorts. Have a good night everyone!
	2:56am Ira: Thanks everybody!
	2:57am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Ira. Much fun. Thanks, skeletons.
	2:59am McGroovey: Really great shoo, Ira.
	3:01am ToTetsu: it does have a reputation for being a bat station..
	4:59pm Kaz: Oh wow, now I have something to look forward to listening every Tuesday afternoon! Love from Japan❤️
	5:02pm Kaz: I meant Wendsday afternoon. Ugh.
	1:17pm Marie: Hi Ira, I think you are a fantastic DJ. I love the music you play. I hope you DJ on fmu forever!

	12:32am Ira: Sorry, JakeGould, it needed to be said.
	12:33am Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Jack. Please provide us reports that our DJ is keeping himself properly hydrated.
	12:33am Joe B: season 1! I will not give setlist spoilers either!
	12:33am ultradamno: Ironsides, he got things done.
	12:34am Chop Scott: Indeed, there's Mannix but Cannon!! A true gourmand.
	12:34am JakeGould: I think DJs are being forced to take some classic TV detective pro/con stance but I cannot speculate any further out for the good of the station. Strapping myself in.
	12:35am Joeybug69: Still waiting for them to bring Kojak back to the lineup.
	12:35am Joe B: @Jake - well if that is the case I will be out of this one, team Rockford all the way!
	12:35am mariano: No love for Barnaby Jones?
	12:35am ultradamno: They did a reboot, briefly, and they made his name Ironsides. Like they didn't want that to be his nickname, so he's Joe Ironsides, or whatever, who just happens to be in a wheelchair. Weirdly brilliant.
	12:35am Gaylord Fields: Ira, I skew more towards Cannon too, but seeing as your post-show travel regimen likely interferes with your Cannon viewing, I wanted to honor your sacrifice for doing this show. Also, Lou Rawls was the guest star on yesterday's Mannix.
	12:36am JakeGould: Here we go… The libs and their Kojak and Rockford allegiances. The agenda is so clear here.
	12:36am McGroovey: I haven't seen Mannix since I was a kid. I loved that show. Well, I loved pretty much all cop and detective shows when I was a kid.
	12:36am Rory: @Jake Don’t dismantle my world view it’s a free society!
	12:37am Ira: Mannix created by Levinson and Link, who created Columbo. Columbo's (even) better.
	12:37am Chop Scott: The other night on Mannix featured Lou Rawls--and William Marshall!
	12:37am Todd-o-phonic Todd: Is it too late to put a vote in for M Squad?
	12:37am Rory: My grandfather use to say that.
	12:37am Vertual: Polarizing is right. Everyone in my family thinks i'm crazy watching 50 year old TV shows - even game shows. They can keep Netflix. I got Concentration among others.
	12:37am Ignore Function: Cool show so far, ITK.
	12:37am Gaylord Fields: @JakeGould: I actually named a recent show of mine "A QM Production" — I forgot exactly why, but it made sense at the time. Probably just wishful thinking.
	12:38am mariano: Till I was 9 I only saw Mannix, Cannon, Quincy, etc dubbed in Spanish. I swear the same actor voiced each lead character. It was kind of shocking when I heard their actual voices.
	12:38am Todd-o-phonic Todd: Also were all tapes of McMillan & Wife destroyed?
	12:38am Joe B: Jake, I am about to make another shocking statement - Ira, Stan and I are the only FMU DJs to play more than one cut from Antietam's excellent Opus Mixtum album. an outrage!
	12:38am McGroovey: @Todd do you mean Mod Squad? Yeah, I loved that one, too.
	12:38am Ira: My mom was on Concentration.
	12:38am Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Joe B: Talk about an unholy trinity!
	12:39am ultradamno: I found myself watching Time Tunnel a lot recently. It's just happens to be on when I'm eating. It's pretty good.
	12:39am JakeGould: DJs should only express their classic TV show preferences via their musical choices and not through their actual opinions let along literal playlist titles. What has happened to this station I would drink all afternoon to?!? A shande!
	12:39am Todd-o-phonic Todd: @McGroovey: No, M Squad is a 50's show that I watched on DVD. The star is Lee Marvin. It's pretty great...
	12:39am McGroovey: Wait. McMillan & Wife got wife? The horror.
	12:39am Hoboken Jack: Hello pt 2 TOPT, Georgia, McGroove, Gaylord. My mom has concentration issues.
	12:40am JakeGould: Lee Marvin looks like how nicotine smells… Also, the title of “McMillan and Wife” always cracks me up… “…and Wife” Hahaha!
	12:40am Vertual: Wow. I still suck at those puzzles! And think, you could win a new Chevette in 1974.
	12:40am Joe B: @Todd - whoops make it a fab four - Rich Hazelton also has done it!
	12:40am Gaylord Fields: I've recently fallen hard for Highway Patrol — but probably not as hard as Broderick Crawford after showing up on set well schnockered following another bender.
	12:41am Ira: I miss the Concentration-y puzzles in Ballantine bottle caps.
	12:42am Joeybug69: 10-4
	12:42am JakeGould: @JoeB: “Opus Mixtum” wow! I learn so much about tolerance via tolerating DJs extreme opinions here.
	12:42am McGroovey: Huh. I love those old fifties TV shows, because they were a bit more like radio, and I love radio drama. Drammer. Some are in YouTube. Most didn't last far into the sixties. The TV version of Richard Diamond is good. It's different from the radio version. I think it stars a young David Jansen?
	12:43am McGroovey: And my phone makes random substitutions that I don't always catch. McMillan and Wife got WIPED?
	12:44am mariano: Speech! Speech! Speech!
	12:44am JakeGould: Also seriously, I have been watching classic Cagney and Bogart films. Not too many worth watching to be honest. But I like that old direction where everything is well composed and staged and acting actually had to work. Also, “White Heat” is such a messed up film… So clearly the basis for Tony and Livia’s creepy relationship on “The Sopranos.”
	12:45am McGroovey: Hey, my mom has concentration issues also, but she was never on Concentration. She still has all her faculties, though. I shoulda called my mom tonight
	12:46am JakeGould: What we you going to call her?
	12:48am ultradamno: Pouring one out for Tom now.
	12:48am Joe B: Dennis Quaid as DJ Ira the K in "The Rookie"
	12:49am Ira: Saw White Heat at the Film Forum on Mother's Day one year. Lou Reed in attendance.
	12:50am JakeGould: Now that is something!
	12:50am McGroovey: @jaka uh-hahah.
	12:50am Joe B: wasn't a Get Crazy screening?
	12:51am JakeGould: @ultradamno: Tom who? The cat who was constantly trying to murder Jerry?
	12:51am Scott Williams: I'm handing the skeleton key over to Carol, g'night all! Ira, sounding great, so glad you join the full-timers!
	12:52am Vertual: I went to one of Lou's book signings; be was so polite. He signed a CD for me...and i lost it probably when i was staying at the Y.
	12:52am JakeGould: Bye Scott!
	12:52am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Scott. See ya at three.
	12:52am Ira: Goodnight, Scott. Thanks for all your help!!!!
	12:53am ultradamno: Dot Dot Dot Dash Dash Dash Dot Dot Dot
	12:54am Paper Moog: I read that as “William Hooker” and therefore did not recognize the voice of my dear friend Aleta Hayes. She sang a (much shorter) Neil Young song for me once.
	12:56am JakeGould: Bye all! Will learn to be more open minded about classic TV detectives.
	1:02am Paper Moog: Aleta Hayes the vocalist for William Parker also leads a dance troupe at Stanford called Chocolate Heads
	1:06am Paper Moog: It was bad enough losing my hair but now it looks like I’ve lost my nose and mouth
	1:07am Joeybug69: Croon long & prosper.
	1:08am Todd-o-phonic Todd: Can we hear "Common People" by William Shatner next?
	1:08am Joe B: former Columbo villain Leonard Nimoy
	1:09am CMF: I can't handle this.
	1:09am Joe B: Todd, sounds like you are ready to compete with Jim Price Segue Services!
	1:09am Paper Moog: “dream to Kling to...”?
	1:09am Ira: Joe, I was thinking the same thing. Also cast member on Mission: Impossible after everyone (read: I) stopped watching it.
	1:10am Hoboken Jack: TOPT = yessssss Never before noticed that Nimoy has a bit of a Jonathan Richman groove.
	1:10am Joe B: @Ira - ha yes!
	1:10am pp: i never would have guessed that was Nimoy. thought it was jonathan richman in his old age.
	1:10am Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Joe B: I can't compete with Jim Price.
	1:11am pp: hoboken jack - dibs :)
	1:17am eeeds: is dot dash by wire too obvious for this set?
	1:17am Hoboken Jack: PP, I'll buy you a Coke.
	1:19am Joe B: Tom Dash - a DJ worth saluting for sure!
	1:20am BH: hopefully Scott doesn't run out of material at 5:59
	1:23am pp: brilliant feigned resignation barely concealed by david cross
	1:24am Mike W: yayyy
	1:31am ToTetsu: that reminds me of this episode of 7sDelay where they prerecorded the show and then left gaps for the callers www.wfmu.org... but they recorded it a few days before 9/11 so it didn't get played for years.
	1:32am ToTetsu: no not that one..
	1:34am Vincent!: Request!: Evergladed by Sammy! Love your Ira! Thank you for the great show!
	1:35am Dungaroos Kipawah: Hot dang, I love the Piggies!
	1:36am Jim H: G’night all. Love it when the Comment board is almost as entertaining as the tunes. Who says I can’t mutitask? Great show!
	1:37am Ira: Jim H., I try to set the bar low with the tunes. That certainly helps.
	1:41am ToTetsu: oh no that was the right one.. a pre-recorded edition with live callers www.wfmu.org...
	1:42am Hoboken Jack: Glands! Enjoyed buying the reissues in Athens.
	1:44am Joe B: oh yes! great LB tune
	1:46am Hubig Pie: Happy sounds
	1:50am Dungaroos Kipawah: I’m late to the conversation, but would like to add my useless 2 cents: I was at Film Forum one time seeing Peckinpah’s RIDE THE HIGH COUNTRY. 15 min into the film, Lou Reed and, I guess, an assistant, entered the theatre noisily, looking for seats. The usu FF crabs started shushing & hissing, sweet Lou prattled on, finding the two adjacent seats in the middle of a crowded row, provoking more imprecations and yammers. Lou fell asleep, rather loudly, abt 5 min later, a kind of rhythmic droning snore (said some reviews) then woke up after another 45 min, said loudly “THIS MOVIE SUCKS, LET’S GO” and then proceeded to upset the already upset cluckers and tsk-ers. One of his better late performances, I now can’t see RTHC without thinking of Lou Reed. @Todd: M Squad is great. Have you ever seen Peckinpah’s The Westerner series. I bet Sterling Morrison loved it. @ Chop Scott: that Lou Rawls Mannix was the Citizen Kane of Mannix-es. Tops. Look for the ep w Buffalo Springfield
	1:52am Joe B: my favorite Glands song is When I Laugh (Swim is great also of course!)
	1:53am McGroovey: I love the Lou Reed story. Do I wish I got out more in the '90s and had my own Lou Reed stories? Oh, I don't know.
	1:54am Joe B: But Amanda is probably watching MASH
	1:55am Joe B: Lew can also serve as an eddie haskell tribute as he guested on leave it to beaver
	1:57am Joe B: yes, I know too much about tv show guest spots
	1:57am Hubig Pie: Lou was a harsh movie critic
	2:00am bobby jay: Welcome Ira...a happy birthday to the great Howlin' Wolf and Judy Garland...'I asked for water(she gave me a rainbow').....
	2:01am BH: The concept of John Wayne as Genghis Khan was introduced to a few people on Sunday night during the Bruce Lee 30 for 30 on ESPN
	2:03am Tookie Wuthry Guffy: acclimation is needed. i did not realize that i had synced periods with wfmu. but i listen constant enough to feel disoriented at the difference. thanks for pointing it out .
	2:04am Hubig Pie: Girl Scout Heroin
	2:06am mariano: BH: I saw The Conqueror when I was a kid, it was so bad. Definitely good for a couple of yuks though. "Ah feel this Tartar woman is for me. And my blood says: take her."
	2:14am Adorno: Gil Scott Heron + James Baldwin
	2:24am BTH: The first time I visited NYC (1998?), I just assumed I would run into Lou Reed at some point, because hey, who is more NYC than Lou? I saw that Film Forum was showing a premier of a Nico documentary, got tickets, and who did I see darting out of the movie as soon as the credits rolled? Lou and Laurie - Highlight of the trip.
	2:26am She Chimp: Whoa this Jan & Dean is awesome.
	2:27am Dungaroos Kipawah: This is one of my favorite Jon. Richman lps, front to back
	2:32am pp: The gist of YMG
	2:34am Dungaroos Kipawah: The woman who played Dr. Cunningham on the Odd Couple is on tonite’s Mannix. Ira’s soundtrack seems to mesh w this part
	2:35am Joe B: @DK - she was also in ode to billy joe!
	2:39am Dungaroos Kipawah: @ I need to watch that
	2:41am 5redpandas: Les rallizes dénudés!!!
	2:42am 5redpandas: My former bandmate was always a little disappointed when someone spotted the les rallizes dénudés influence, the snob.
	2:43am Joe B: @DK - she was good on the odd couple but her presence also meant fewer schemes where oscar calls crazy rhoda zimmerman
	2:44am mariano: Webstream down? I'm getting a connection error though my connection's fine on other sites.
	2:45am BH: it's down for me too
	2:45am Ken From Hyde Park: Down for me, too. We need Mr. Steed and Mrs. Emma Peel on the case!
	2:45am ben abs: Works on the app
	2:46am Ken From Hyde Park: Stream is back. Yay!
	2:47am Ira: Les Rallizes Dénudés too much genius for the stream to handle!
	2:47am Joe Belock: air signal fine
	2:49am mariano: Yep, it's back!
	2:51am Hubig Pie: Connection in and out but now I'm out, G'night all
	2:53am mariano: 'Night Hubig. And thanks so much Ira, amazing show! Thanks to Scott and his Skeleton cohorts. Have a good night everyone!
	2:56am Ira: Thanks everybody!
	2:57am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Ira. Much fun. Thanks, skeletons.
	2:59am McGroovey: Really great shoo, Ira.
	3:01am ToTetsu: it does have a reputation for being a bat station..
	4:59pm Kaz: Oh wow, now I have something to look forward to listening every Tuesday afternoon! Love from Japan❤️
	5:02pm Kaz: I meant Wendsday afternoon. Ugh.
	1:17pm Marie: Hi Ira, I think you are a fantastic DJ. I love the music you play. I hope you DJ on fmu forever!
