WFMU: Old Codger with Courtney T. Edison: Playlist from July 23, 2020

Listener comments!
	9:12am Lolabelle Pancake: Hello, everybody. Courtney wanted me to get here early again to sweep, scour and scrub the poutin' shanty in preparation for tonight's radio extravaganza. He also wanted me to post what he calls a Public Service Announcement: Courtney says: "Don't give money to WFMU. They are scoundrels and poltroons. Give your extra money to me. I will invest it in mountains of 78rpm discs purchased from the estates of my recently deceased contemporaries."
	9:14am Lolabelle Pancake: On tonight's show, we have several exciting new sponsors and a special guest appearance by Gus Bodenheim, who is related to a famous dead reprobate.
	♥ 10:14am rrg: Good morning, Lolabelle. It's reassuring to know that the poutin' shanty, the playlist administration, and even Courtney's career itself are in such capable hands as yours. It's a tough job, but someone has to do it. Well, maybe no one HAS to do it but I'm glad someone does.
	♥ 10:20am rrg: I'm doing my part by patronizing some of Courtney's sponsors. For instance, I've never smoked before but I've taken up smoking Camels. It's the cigarette smoked by more doctors than any other because of its mild taste. Just one puff is enough to make anyone a believer.
	♥ 10:26am rrg: The continuing presence of Fablo on the WFMU airwaves rankles and upsets all of Courtney's fans. We hope something can be done about it soon.
	11:48am zopa: A salute to double predestination! Let's all hope that Mr. Bodenheim escapes that fate...
	12:22pm Lolabelle Pancake: Courtney said, "Every week Fablo accrues three additional hours of future karmic retribution. He's way beyond just a summer vacation in Hell."
	12:28pm Lolabelle Pancake: My cat thinks Fablo's show is a public meow-trage.
	♥ 3:17pm dave wuz here: fablo's show is just 3 hours of eastern european snuff film soundtracks
	3:23pm Lolabelle Pancake: Courtney likes snuff. Are the European brands expensive?
	♥ 3:29pm dave wuz here: the good stuff from the Nostril region is gonna cost ya
	5:22pm Listener Robert: I tried making caramels and they ended up smoking. As well as stinking. Is that like you mean, rrg?
	5:30pm Laura L: Fablo must think it's Halloween comes once a week--to be specific Thursdays from 3-6--everything he plays is a horror!!
	5:39pm Lolabelle Pancake: Laura, do you think Fablo's program meets the federal threshold for terrorism?
	5:40pm Lolabelle Pancake: Courtney thinks the DHS should be summoned.
	5:49pm Lolabelle Pancake: Fablo should be escorted out of the studio in handcuffs, past a jeering mob.
	♥ 5:50pm rrg: I would join that mob. I would taunt and jeer. If you can make that happen, sign me up.
	5:53pm Lolabelle Pancake: Courtney says they'll be selling postcards of the hanging.
	5:54pm Laura L: I don't even need to acquaint myself with the federal guidelines to know it qualifies! I hope Courtney can call the FBI and the CIA and the Secret Court.
	5:57pm Lolabelle Pancake: Courtney is on good terms with the Illuminati and Agents of the Nine Elder Bankers.
	5:57pm Snortley: Bio of tonight's Ms. Turntables, Miriam J. Sabbage: theatricalia.com...
	♥ 6:02pm ultradamno: My cat just yawn-meowed, possibly because of Fablo's british noise, she's livening up now.
	6:05pm Floradix Hundwasser: Is it on now? I only hear random low-frequency noises issuing from my Radiola. Is it just some kind of hum? My hearing was damaged in a snark-tagging accident in 1954.
	6:05pm Listener Robert: What kind of filter do you need to pick up almost nothing but string friction?
	6:06pm Floradix Hundwasser: Ah, here he is! What was all that semi-dead air then?
	♥ 6:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Scandalized the Sabbage collage was sabotaged.
	6:06pm Lolabelle Pancake: Floradix, how did the woofer implant go?
	6:07pm Rev. Turnip Druid: MY HERO. Best Cab Calloway era, this here.
	♥ 6:07pm StringOFperils: This sure sounds fine. I like it better when the music's on.
	♥ 6:08pm Webhamster Henry: Cab was a lively soul. Not always speaking a known language, though.
	6:08pm Lolabelle Pancake: Tinges of Yiddish.
	6:09pm Jon: Diggin this Cab!
	6:09pm βrian: Stop the platter and start the chatter!
	♥ 6:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This scandalous Callousway invented the Jazz cigarette is my understanding...as I am hep to the jibe.
	♥ 6:09pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Please pardon my tardiness, Lolabelle.
	6:09pm Floradix Hundwasser: Lolabelle, you know how I feel about dogs. What with that slobbering and humping - disgusting! Courtney is the only dog I permit in my home.
	♥ 6:10pm ultradamno: It's short for appetizer.
	6:13pm βrian: Appendix, no? Who needs 'em?
	♥ 6:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: People just like it better that way Brian.
	♥ 6:15pm ultradamno: Given the use of apropos and vignette, I'll guess a Courtney app is Potato Skins with French Dressing.
	♥ 6:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mildred I'll has a Peppo cheers.
	6:17pm Sonderangebot: I like to take orders, too!
	♥ 6:17pm ultradamno: @RRN And big on the zoot suits too, probably concealing a zip gun to boot.
	6:17pm βrian: Well, it's not an order but please wear a mask.
	♥ 6:18pm ultradamno: I think a hanky train robber style mask would be most apropos for the hour at hand
	6:19pm Listener Robert: Just hiss now on 90.1.
	6:19pm βrian: Cheetoh cancels Jacksonville.
	6:20pm Lolabelle Pancake: Robert: Sometimes it's hard to distinguish technical difficulties from Courtney's music.
	♥ 6:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The world shall always remember the Spanish Flu.
	6:21pm Listener Robert: Yep, seems WMFU is down, pop-up stream works.
	♥ 6:21pm ultradamno: Though someone keeps changing the year of it.
	6:23pm P-90: Django. The one and only.
	♥ 6:23pm ultradamno: Has Fablo struck at the only means of transmission Courtney uses?
	6:23pm Gus Bodenheim: Baby Dodds played a rhythm pattern reminiscent of "The Campbells are Coming, Hoo-ray Hoo-ray." Just stating the obvious.
	6:24pm Lolabelle Pancake: Oh, hello, Gus! Courtney is delighted you're "in the shanty."
	♥ 6:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This Django appeals to me ...& I appreciate he only has two fingers to use ...but clearly Gittar is a Chord instrument that isn't loud enuff & this fiddling has no future...
	6:25pm Listener Robert: Wunderground shows cold front and thunderstorms going thru Mt. Hope, maybe that knocked the xmtr out.
	♥ 6:28pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I must be ancient now, because I appreciate everything Courtney is saying. sigh.
	6:28pm βrian: Snot-nosed kids know best.
	♥ 6:28pm StringOFperils: Sounds like nose glue.
	♥ 6:28pm ultradamno: What mother is having nose drop advice impressed on her by the kids?
	6:29pm Sonderangebot: Last time I asked my mommy for a bottle, Coca-Cola was still using its original recipe
	6:30pm Listener Robert: SOP, how much would we have had to have pledged to get Ken's or Andy's nose super-glued to a body part of the other in Permanent Twister?
	6:30pm Lolabelle Pancake: Hopey: Courtney's not the father of Old-Time Radio — just a sperm donor.
	♥ 6:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: All I wanted was a Peppo & Mildred wouldn't give it to me.
	♥ 6:34pm rrg: Courtney has cleaned this record really well. It sounds great!
	♥ 6:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: In fine Formby.
	♥ 6:37pm ultradamno: Using a Fuller Brush? cf.collectorsweekly.com...
	6:37pm Lolabelle Pancake: Reggie: Courtney uses a secret process! It's a volatile combination of chemicals. He doesn't recommend you try it at home. However, it's actually only one ingredient shy of salad dressing!
	6:39pm Laura L: @ Gus Bodenheim: are you any relation to the poet Maxwell Bodenheim?
	6:40pm Lolabelle Pancake: Kid brother, I think.
	6:40pm Gus Bodenheim: I'll thank you to tread lightly when discussing my brother
	6:40pm Gus Bodenheim: Any impertinence will be swiftly countered!
	♥ 6:44pm Hopey Sockmonkey: And a fabulous radio hat it is.
	♥ 6:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Flojo ? I resemble that remark...
	6:45pm ARB: Leader of the plaque here
	♥ 6:45pm StringOFperils: Get that ghoulish and morbid smile !
	♥ 6:45pm Webhamster Henry: Does this mean Mr. Edison has buried the hatchet withRummy Delbarton or is he just taking his money?
	♥ 6:47pm rrg: Feel the clench!
	♥ 6:47pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Barely Legal Corn. I wouldn't google that . . .
	6:48pm ARB: They would be if they were more like men
	♥ 6:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'll stick with Bear Whizz Beer...the Temperance ladies round here are not to trifle with...
	6:50pm Listener Robert: Is the barrel referred to in the Sly Weasel ad an oil drum?
	6:54pm Laura L: Sly Weasel--the spirits that'll turn any sourpuss into a good sport!
	♥ 6:54pm dale: herro. 90.1 has been out for a while.
	6:56pm Lolabelle Pancake: The station manager called and said they are doing maintenance on the 90.1 transmitter. It will be off for 90 minutes. This is a public service announcement.
	6:57pm Lolabelle Pancake: Courtney doesn't understand why they didn't do the maintenance during Fablo's Fiasco. No one would miss him.
	♥ 6:57pm Webhamster Henry: I have a copy of Ukulele Lady on shellac.
	♥ 6:57pm dale: thanks. guess i'll have to get on my crystal set.
	♥ 6:58pm rrg: The show is almost over. It's an outrage that Fablo is given 3 hours while Courtney is only given 1.
	♥ 6:58pm G: Dreamy show.
	♥ 6:58pm dale: my atwater kent is on the fritz.
	6:59pm Listener Robert: That's funny, my Atwater Fritz is on the Kent.
	♥ 6:59pm G: "Gin was mother's milk to her."
	♥ 7:00pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Thank you, Lolabelle!
	♥ 7:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If only there were some sort of long playing record.
