	10:04pm still b/p: A Plague of Their Own.
	♥ 10:05pm Franco Twinkie: Short season with NO spitting!
	10:05pm Kris Holmes: ahhh :(
	♥ 10:06pm Uncle Michael: They're going to reap the whirlwind. They're not going to make it through 60 games before some ballpark becomes a hot spot and the whole thing gets shut down. It's lunacy.
	10:08pm Kris Holmes: i fear you may be right
	♥ 10:08pm Franco Twinkie: A little while ago I drove past my gym and the parking lot was full!?!
	♥ 10:08pm Candy-O'67: Hey, Kris and everyone! Just tuned in :)

	10:09pm Kris Holmes: hi candy
	♥ 10:09pm Franco Twinkie: Candy, it's dance time!
	♥ 10:09pm Candy-O'67: What a trip, Franco, the gym! Yes, let's dance!
	10:10pm still b/p: Bolsonaro caught it and he don't care. Attitude evidently not budging. All the like-minded defiantly lock-minded people should be called Los Bolsonaros.
	10:10pm Kris Holmes: Los Bolsomorons
	♥ 10:11pm Franco Twinkie: Well, as far as I can tell it's all super fit young people who need to look good at the bar.
	♥ 10:12pm Candy-O'67: Wow, Franco, I just checked my gym 24 Hour. They are having about one or two classes a day now. I had no idea they were back open! I wonder if they are saying to wear a mask for classes?
	♥ 10:16pm WR: Howdy all. Sorry to be late. I'd miss my own birthday if someone else wasn't pushing me. And I missed you playing Mr. G. Thank WFMU for the archive.
	♥ 10:18pm Franco Twinkie: For me, one benefit of going to the gym, that night I would sleep well, If I went now, I would be so filled with anxiety, I wouldn't be able to sleep at all.
	♥ 10:20pm Candy-O'67: Yeah, I hear ya, Franco. I really like working out at the gym - weights and classes. I've missed that, but I really don't see how it could be safe at this point! I'll just continue to do my workouts at home. I know they have some on-line classes. I need to check into those
	10:21pm Kris Holmes: Hi WR
	♥ 10:21pm Franco Twinkie: I think I'll take a walk. But not just yet.
	♥ 10:22pm Candy-O'67: Yeah, you gotta wait for the show to finish ;)
	10:22pm Kris Holmes: I've been walking a couple miles every night, maybe jogging a block or two if i feel it
	♥ 10:23pm Uncle Michael: I get off the couch to get my own damned potato chips. It's progress.
	♥ 10:23pm Candy-O'67: That's good, Kris. I walk my dog twice a day, about 20 minute walks, and do some yoga and a little home weights
	♥ 10:24pm Franco Twinkie: I would say that digging records our of the mud is a good balance of cardio and resistance.
	10:25pm Kris Holmes: ha, just don't touch your mouth or nose or eyes
	♥ 10:26pm Candy-O'67: Love that lady's voice of the Jerusalem Gospel Singers
	♥ 10:26pm Matt from New Orleans: Where was the muddy shop?
	♥ 10:27pm Candy-O'67: Hey Matt from NOLA!
	♥ 10:28pm Franco Twinkie: Kris,who cares if your head is a oozing ball of infection just as long as you've good looking abs and delts.
	♥ 10:29pm Candy-O'67: Haha, Franco!
	10:29pm Kris Holmes: Matt, kind of uptown, washington ave
	♥ 10:29pm Matt from New Orleans: If you’ve seen the Toxic Avenger Franco I think you would never have said that
	♥ 10:30pm Franco Twinkie: I have Matt, but I threw caution to the wind and said it anyway.
	♥ 10:31pm Matt from New Orleans: I haven’t seen it in years but the guy’s face being shoved into the milk shake mixer will never be forgotten
	♥ 10:31pm Candy-O'67: Woooohooo, love this Barbara Lewis song!
	10:32pm still b/p: Awwwwww, Hello Stranger is a wistful deeeelight.
	10:32pm Kris Holmes: Jerusalem Gospel Singers was more fantastic than I remembered & yes, love Hello Stranger
	♥ 10:32pm chresti: I think each fitness class participant is in their own separate see-thru tent or dome.
	♥ 10:33pm Candy-O'67: Hey chresti! What a trip! Like boy in the plastic bubble!
	♥ 10:33pm Franco Twinkie: Funny, I only saw it once, when It came out. But I actually have forgotten....until you reminded me.
	♥ 10:33pm chresti: Hi Kris and homebounders!
	♥ 10:35pm chresti: Hey Candy-O!
	♥ 10:36pm Matt from New Orleans: Franco I interned at Troma for about a week in the late 90s before I wanted to kill Lloyd Kaufman
	♥ 10:37pm Matt from New Orleans: Enjoy your break Kris
	10:39pm Kris Holmes: Hi Chresti. Thanks Matt!
	♥ 10:39pm Franco Twinkie: Wow Matt. I would hear about those jobs from young P.A.'s, but I never had to wiggle my toe in that swamp.
	♥ 10:39pm chresti: @Candy-O, yeah, crazy!
	♥ 10:41pm Candy-O'67: Get up on the floor people!!
	♥ 10:55pm Franco Twinkie: I just checked, Matt. There is no stand alone short of the milkshake scene on YouTube. I don't know of if I can suffer through the whole movie again, but I am curious.
	♥ 10:58pm Matt from New Orleans: Franco That’s the entire scene at the Taco Joint. I’d go to the 5 min mark if you just want to see the milkshake nonsense. Yes I did just watch it. youtu.be...
	11:05pm still b/p: Another unusual little thread-of comment-and-thought intersection this evening: I went a while ago during the show to check the opening scene of There Will Be Blood, to see if it was a suitable metaphor for digging for records in the mud. And what's another famous moment and line in that movie? "I drink your milkshake!"
	♥ 11:07pm Matt from New Orleans: He certainly did metaphorically
	♥ 11:07pm WR: Mr. G, Bobby Marchan, even Annie Laurie. You are making me home sick for NOLA, until I remember the insects and lack of decent paying job.
	♥ 11:08pm Matt from New Orleans: I was on that game show in middle school Kris. I won a free trip.
	♥ 11:09pm WR: But Palm Springs heat is a dry heat.
	11:10pm dj dangit: just getting in. howdy!
	♥ 11:11pm Matt from New Orleans: Good luck on your road trip. Doesn’t really seem like the best time for it but stay safe.
	♥ 11:14pm Candy-O'67: I wish I was going on another road trip to CA! I've driven back and forth many, many times when I lived out there back to TX. Have a great time! I will make that road trip again some day :)
	11:15pm Kris Holmes: Heya Gabe!!
	11:15pm Kris Holmes: Matt, yeah, not preferred timing but needs must
	11:16pm Kris Holmes: Dr Heat vs Wet Heat? It's all heat & once you get to 110 & up it doesn't really matter either way
	♥ 11:17pm Candy-O'67: This is true, Kris, although it's a little better in the dry heat
	♥ 11:17pm Candy-O'67: This is true, Kris, although it's a little better in the dry heat
	♥ 11:18pm Candy-O'67: Sorry for the double post
	♥ 11:18pm Franco Twinkie: Okay Matt. I watched the whole restaurant scene. It was preposterous enough that I did laugh. The only part that was suspect was having samurai swords as wall decor at a Taco Bell.
	11:20pm Kris Holmes: Misa just gave me half an ice cream bar & then flipped Otis off in his face because he gets none lol
	11:21pm still b/p: Listen only to Autobahn and I've Been Everywhere the whooooole trip. Humidity is really noticed when you return to it, but when I was in West Texas...hot was just hot, and you still burned your fingers on the car ignition's metal, regardless of dryness. (Hey, Merriam-Webster is including "irregardless," and catching shit for it.
	♥ 11:27pm Candy-O'67: Kris, is Otis your dog or cat?
	♥ 11:27pm JtotheK: hiya mr holmes, hi everyone.
	♥ 11:27pm Matt from New Orleans: I stopped before the dudes hands went into the fryer. Somehow that wigs me out more than the milk shake machine. Probably because I’ve been burnt a number of times by hot oil and have never been close to sticking my head in a mixer.
	♥ 11:27pm Matt from New Orleans: Cat
	♥ 11:27pm Matt from New Orleans: Hi Jason
	♥ 11:28pm Candy-O'67: Thanks, Matt
	♥ 11:29pm Matt from New Orleans: No worries Candy. I’ve yet to meet Otis but it feels like I have.
	♥ 11:30pm Candy-O'67: That's cool, Matt :)
	♥ 11:30pm JtotheK: re: the Troma studio - back when Terror Firmer was in the theatre on the midnight movie circuit, I went and saw it - and Lloyd was supposed to be there to have a Q & A but he didn't show up. Still, was an enjoyable meeting with a fun crowd to watch the movie with.
	♥ 11:30pm WR: Michael Shelly broadcast interview with George McCrae recently.
	♥ 11:31pm Candy-O'67: I heard that interview, WR. It was good
	11:34pm Kris Holmes: George McCrae still alive? Unexpected.
	♥ 11:38pm Matt from New Orleans: The only cool thing about briefly working at Troma was becoming friends with James Gunn(who’s gone on to direct Guardians of the Galaxy) and Jenna Fischer. I haven’t spoken to Jenna since their divorce. James and I talk infrequently these days. They were both nobodies at the time.
	♥ 11:39pm WR: Yes and still performing. Shelly played a recording released a few years ago and it is as good or better than the old hits. Pleasant surprise.
	♥ 11:39pm Franco Twinkie: Matt, when I worked in the food service industry back during the Nixon administration, when no one was looking, I would throw big balls of ice into the deep fryer and then run.
	11:39pm Kris Holmes: WR: Incredible
	♥ 11:41pm Matt from New Orleans: Franco your story does not surprise me. You were probably taking “smoke” breaks to make it tolerable.
	♥ 11:41pm Franco Twinkie: Well,yeah.
	♥ 11:43pm WR: Of course McCrae is all about how amazing he is, but the interview was informative about the scene his hit came out of.
	♥ 11:43pm Matt from New Orleans: Franco Is that your husky love?
	♥ 11:44pm Matt from New Orleans: Loving the deep soul Kris
	♥ 11:44pm Franco Twinkie: Yes! Colmillo Blanco - White Fang.
	♥ 11:45pm WR: I never worked in fast food place. Was a dishwasher in a few different restaurants. Generally stayed away from fire, hot oil and knives.
	11:46pm Kris Holmes: Thanks Matt
	11:48pm still b/p: Would you rather be the crumb or the heel in the bread box of love?
	♥ 11:49pm Franco Twinkie: WR. Me neither. Old school Italian red and white, and a hospital kitchen, where all the mischief was fomented.
	♥ 11:52pm Franco Twinkie: You ain't got nuthin' on us Kris. 4,000 new cases today in Los Angeles County.
	11:53pm Kris Holmes: I wanna be the loaf.....hahaha
	11:53pm Kris Holmes: Damn, California
	♥ 11:54pm Franco Twinkie: Thing are not good here.
	♥ 11:54pm Matt from New Orleans: I-10 is corona-ville from sea to shining sea
	♥ 11:55pm Franco Twinkie: Sorry but true.
	11:55pm Kris Holmes: :(
	♥ 11:55pm JtotheK: @Matt - I haven't kept up on Troma movies in ... a while, I didn't know JF/JG did a movie for Troma! Gonna have to seek that out. And I also forgot that JG was involved with Tromeo and Juliet.
	♥ 11:57pm JtotheK: thanks for the tunes, Kris! stay safe, best to you and Misa the next few weeks!
	♥ 11:57pm Matt from New Orleans: I don’t think Jenna was actually in any Troma films as she was based in LA. She wrote and directed an independent film and James and Lloyd Kaufman were in it. I barely remember it.
	♥ 11:58pm WR: A second to Matt's earlier comment, great early soul / R&B groove you've laid out for us tonight Kris. Nice slow burn for this summer season.
	11:59pm Kris Holmes: Thanks everyone, definitely gonna try our darnedest to stay safe
	♥ 11:59pm JtotheK: 'LolliLove' - and it's on a streaming service!
	♥ 11:59pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks Kris. Fun from stem to stern.
	♥ 11:59pm Matt from New Orleans: www.imdb.com... It’s on Amazon Prime apparently.
	♥ 12:00am JtotheK: gonna check it out!
	♥ 12:00am Candy-O'67: Thanks for another great show, Kris! Have a great trip!
	♥ 12:00am WR: Laters all.
	12:00am still b/p: Thanks. Music that satisfies! Bon voyage and safe home.
	♥ 12:01am Matt from New Orleans: Have a good night everyone. “See” you know 3 weeks Kris.

	11:20pm Kris Holmes: Misa just gave me half an ice cream bar & then flipped Otis off in his face because he gets none lol
	11:21pm still b/p: Listen only to Autobahn and I've Been Everywhere the whooooole trip. Humidity is really noticed when you return to it, but when I was in West Texas...hot was just hot, and you still burned your fingers on the car ignition's metal, regardless of dryness. (Hey, Merriam-Webster is including "irregardless," and catching shit for it.
	♥ 11:27pm Candy-O'67: Kris, is Otis your dog or cat?
	♥ 11:27pm JtotheK: hiya mr holmes, hi everyone.
	♥ 11:27pm Matt from New Orleans: I stopped before the dudes hands went into the fryer. Somehow that wigs me out more than the milk shake machine. Probably because I’ve been burnt a number of times by hot oil and have never been close to sticking my head in a mixer.
	♥ 11:27pm Matt from New Orleans: Cat
	♥ 11:27pm Matt from New Orleans: Hi Jason
	♥ 11:28pm Candy-O'67: Thanks, Matt
	♥ 11:29pm Matt from New Orleans: No worries Candy. I’ve yet to meet Otis but it feels like I have.
	♥ 11:30pm Candy-O'67: That's cool, Matt :)
	♥ 11:30pm JtotheK: re: the Troma studio - back when Terror Firmer was in the theatre on the midnight movie circuit, I went and saw it - and Lloyd was supposed to be there to have a Q & A but he didn't show up. Still, was an enjoyable meeting with a fun crowd to watch the movie with.
	♥ 11:30pm WR: Michael Shelly broadcast interview with George McCrae recently.
	♥ 11:31pm Candy-O'67: I heard that interview, WR. It was good
	11:34pm Kris Holmes: George McCrae still alive? Unexpected.
	♥ 11:38pm Matt from New Orleans: The only cool thing about briefly working at Troma was becoming friends with James Gunn(who’s gone on to direct Guardians of the Galaxy) and Jenna Fischer. I haven’t spoken to Jenna since their divorce. James and I talk infrequently these days. They were both nobodies at the time.
	♥ 11:39pm WR: Yes and still performing. Shelly played a recording released a few years ago and it is as good or better than the old hits. Pleasant surprise.
	♥ 11:39pm Franco Twinkie: Matt, when I worked in the food service industry back during the Nixon administration, when no one was looking, I would throw big balls of ice into the deep fryer and then run.
	11:39pm Kris Holmes: WR: Incredible
	♥ 11:41pm Matt from New Orleans: Franco your story does not surprise me. You were probably taking “smoke” breaks to make it tolerable.
	♥ 11:41pm Franco Twinkie: Well,yeah.
	♥ 11:43pm WR: Of course McCrae is all about how amazing he is, but the interview was informative about the scene his hit came out of.
	♥ 11:43pm Matt from New Orleans: Franco Is that your husky love?
	♥ 11:44pm Matt from New Orleans: Loving the deep soul Kris
	♥ 11:44pm Franco Twinkie: Yes! Colmillo Blanco - White Fang.
	♥ 11:45pm WR: I never worked in fast food place. Was a dishwasher in a few different restaurants. Generally stayed away from fire, hot oil and knives.
	11:46pm Kris Holmes: Thanks Matt
	11:48pm still b/p: Would you rather be the crumb or the heel in the bread box of love?
	♥ 11:49pm Franco Twinkie: WR. Me neither. Old school Italian red and white, and a hospital kitchen, where all the mischief was fomented.
	♥ 11:52pm Franco Twinkie: You ain't got nuthin' on us Kris. 4,000 new cases today in Los Angeles County.
	11:53pm Kris Holmes: I wanna be the loaf.....hahaha
	11:53pm Kris Holmes: Damn, California
	♥ 11:54pm Franco Twinkie: Thing are not good here.
	♥ 11:54pm Matt from New Orleans: I-10 is corona-ville from sea to shining sea
	♥ 11:55pm Franco Twinkie: Sorry but true.
	11:55pm Kris Holmes: :(
	♥ 11:55pm JtotheK: @Matt - I haven't kept up on Troma movies in ... a while, I didn't know JF/JG did a movie for Troma! Gonna have to seek that out. And I also forgot that JG was involved with Tromeo and Juliet.
	♥ 11:57pm JtotheK: thanks for the tunes, Kris! stay safe, best to you and Misa the next few weeks!
	♥ 11:57pm Matt from New Orleans: I don’t think Jenna was actually in any Troma films as she was based in LA. She wrote and directed an independent film and James and Lloyd Kaufman were in it. I barely remember it.
	♥ 11:58pm WR: A second to Matt's earlier comment, great early soul / R&B groove you've laid out for us tonight Kris. Nice slow burn for this summer season.
	11:59pm Kris Holmes: Thanks everyone, definitely gonna try our darnedest to stay safe
	♥ 11:59pm JtotheK: 'LolliLove' - and it's on a streaming service!
	♥ 11:59pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks Kris. Fun from stem to stern.
	♥ 11:59pm Matt from New Orleans: www.imdb.com... It’s on Amazon Prime apparently.
	♥ 12:00am JtotheK: gonna check it out!
	♥ 12:00am Candy-O'67: Thanks for another great show, Kris! Have a great trip!
	♥ 12:00am WR: Laters all.
	12:00am still b/p: Thanks. Music that satisfies! Bon voyage and safe home.
	♥ 12:01am Matt from New Orleans: Have a good night everyone. “See” you know 3 weeks Kris.
