	3:21pm DjLorraine: * makes room for new musical treats *
	3:23pm Guido from Cologne: Bobbettes !!!
	3:23pm a polished polish lady: <3
	3:25pm emilie s: Bobbettes double play!! Fab!
	3:26pm blee: thumbs up for the Bobbettes, super cute.
	3:27pm winston legthigh: this killer set sure is a treat @djlorraine :)))))
	3:27pm Andrew_in_WI: Just switched over from Belock's show, and that Bobbettes track was seamless.
	3:27pm Michael 98145: Salutations, Citizen Sheila
	3:27pm NikiA: Hiiiiiiiiiiii, I am ready to boom boom
	3:29pm Handy Haversack: Nice avatar, NikiA. Panda?
	3:32pm listener james from westwood: Yay Alvy!!
	3:32pm P-90: Banzai Alvy!
	3:32pm paddy in matawan: Nice! Good Kitty!!!
	3:32pm Handy Haversack: Go on, Alvy!
	3:32pm Michael 98145: Yay, kitty!!
	3:32pm P-90: and thank you @Amy B!
	3:33pm paddy in matawan: Our Goji gets serious squirts when she sneeks some of Guapper's kibble. We tried feeing her raw chicken but she wouldn't eat it....
	3:33pm Morgan: hi all, hi sheila. good news about alvy!
	3:33pm R. Noel Fox: YAY for cats getting better! My poor cat is having seizures, I think from the mold in my apartment. I'm trying to supplement her food with vitamin B / thiamine. I've read that thiamine can be an issue with raw food diets, so if you start to notice any neurological issues with Alvy, try adding some thiamine to his diet.
	3:34pm Cooh John: Good to boom with you, DjLorraine. Nice getting a shoutout together. Working to the groove.
	3:34pm Ken From Hyde Park: Good for Alvy and the sushi diet!
	3:35pm djsheilab: R. Noel Fox—Awww your poor cat. I hope the thiamine helps her. And thank you for the advice!
	3:35pm NikiA: @Handy that is Boomie, my little chihuahua boy. Panda was a sweet fluffy black and white shih tzu <3
	3:36pm Despeinada from Texas: I hear Ian Dury vibes
	3:36pm DjLorraine: I was wondering how Alvy was doing. I look forward to Alvy's input.
	3:37pm Handy Haversack: Good dogs, NikiA!
	3:37pm djsheilab: Thanks for the Alvy cheer, Morgan, listener james from westwood, P-90, Paddy in matawan, Michael 98145, Handy Haversack, Ken From Hyde Park + DjLorraine!
	3:40pm northguineahills: 1986, the year I moved to Japan.....
	3:40pm djsheilab: Hey emilie s, a polished polish lady, bee, Andrew_in_WI + NikiA!
	3:41pm Carmichael: Heya Sheila and Boomalians. Settling in with chinese food and righteous tunes.
	3:42pm djsheilab: Hey Guido from Cologne + Carmichael!
	3:42pm NikiA: I just realized my dog's name is thematic to the show
	3:42pm NikiA: Oh god, Lianna La Havas is possibly one of my favorite artists. YES
	3:43pm Guido from Cologne: "Lianne La Havas" is the most convincing solo. She doesn't need a band.
	3:44pm djsheilab: NikiA—Her latest album is just stunning! Guido from Cologne—Agreed!
	3:44pm That Goddam Todd: Not for this afternoon's groove, but a request to share an all gal ensemble for a future show with country twang... Bluestone 739 - Staggerin' Willy
	3:44pm johnc: NGH- that's pretty cool. Why did you move to Japan and how long were you there for?
	3:44pm DavidL: Ooh yes. Her 2020 album may be my favorite of the year... so good.
	3:44pm dreamyandseedy: her voice has a beautiful tone
	3:45pm djsheilab: Thanks That Goddam Todd!
	3:46pm DjLorraine: R Noel Fox i found out in 2013 by the famous Dr Shoemaker that i have innate immune response. Mold severly effects my mitochonria, pain and brain fog. The first step in the protocol is get out of mold. It's been hard to do on measliy disabilty. I wish you the best in housing and life for you and your cat. It's also torturous when loved ones that are not effected have no idea what others are living with.
	3:46pm NikiA: @Dreamyandseedy - yes, her voice has a gorgeous tone, but so does her guitar. It's so recognizable, I can recognize it from a few notes up front before she even sings
	3:48pm Guido from Cologne: OMG the Cover of that Libanese Bossa! Any idea about the lyrics?
	3:50pm djsheilab: Guido from Cologne— I had the same reaction when I looked closer. Wild!
	3:51pm Passaic River Blues: @Guido: I was just thinking the same thing. Is that an AK-47 sitting against the wall? 1984 was a low point in the Lebanese Civil War, so maybe a comment about life during wartime?
	3:51pm DjLorraine: R Noel Fox i even went years where sound was painful. Music could not be in my life. Obviously i've had improvement and WFMU is my go-to for sound.
	3:53pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: Definitely making more noise...!
	3:54pm R. Noel Fox: DJLorraine - The mold has ruined my life. I moved to Jersey City six years ago, both for my Lyme Disease recovery, getting out of sunless shitholes in Brooklyn; and excited to be closer to WFMU and hoping to get to really be a part of the station, maybe learn to board op. Instead I ended up developing Histamine Intolerance (I cant' eat anything artificial or more than two days old, or any canned ingredients) and chronic hives; and Interstitial Cystitis, which left me in constant abdominal pain and having to pee every 15 minutes. For five years I thought I was forever unfuckable. I kept getting sicker. My migraines were near constant. My boyfriend left me. I'm also on Disability. I can't leave my moldy apartment until I get vaccinated because I can't afford to live my myself. But honestly, I've no idea where I'll go when I leave here. I'm too poor for affordable housing.
	3:55pm Guido from Cologne: @ Passaic River Blues: I was guessing so.
	3:55pm R. Noel Fox: DJLorraine - Same. The migraines were so constant that I rarely went to shows. I lived with a boyfriend with significant Tourette's who makes loud sounds constantly. It was hell.
	3:56pm R. Noel Fox: Am I the only one getting Mario Brothers vibes from this song?
	3:56pm Morgan: sorry about your kitka fox, its scary. i would offer to foster if i didnt have 3 cats, 1 of whom is dangerously possessive
	3:57pm R. Noel Fox: Awww, thank you Morgan! It's a hard sell, having a cat with seizures that needs medication every 8 hours.
	3:57pm djsheilab: R. Noel Fox—Total Mario Brothers vibes! No wonder I like it!
	3:58pm BH: hums to self lovvvingg you... is easy cuz you're beautiful...
	3:58pm steveo: i think my grandmother's console organ had this rhythm :)
	3:59pm AL: Loooveee Jockstrap
	4:01pm DjLorraine: R Noel Fox alot of folks have the MCAS. I had the polyuritis too. It's a real thing. They found out i dont make ADH and sometimes i use nasal desmopressin.
	4:02pm Rob Kopp: That previous tune reminded me a bit of Black market by Frank Valdor & Orchestra (feat. Nana Gualdi). Whenever you need a new tune, Sheila, this is for sure a candidate! www.youtube.com...
	4:03pm djsheilab: I'll check it out. Thanks Rob!
	4:03pm listener james from westwood: Oh, damn, haven't heard this Brooks track in forever!
	4:03pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	4:04pm R. Noel Fox: DjLorraine : I've got Ehlers Danlos Syndrome too, so between that and the Lyme Disease / Bartonella, figuring out the mold was present and causing problems took some time. MCAS is common with EDS, so I just attributed it to that, even though all these problems never started until I moved into this apartment. What's ADH?
	4:04pm DjLorraine: RnFox here is an excellent NYT article because long haul covid can turn to mecfs.www.nytimes.com...
	4:04pm HyperDose: Afternoon Sheila and fellow Boom Booms!
	4:04pm Clermont: Another fantastic show Sheila! This version of “Fool” is making me cry. Excellent.
	4:05pm Victor Eremita: Fool, if you think it's over, it's just vegan.
	4:05pm Miss G: Was just ready to stop working and listen when the room was filled with what I think is called "dank"? Oh I feel like I will faint is there something that will cover that smell up?! Thank you and hello Sophisticated Boom Boomers!
	4:05pm steveo: i was born on elkie brooks's birthday, i have just learned :)
	4:05pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey, I think I forgot to say Hi! Or forgot that I said Hi. Anyway, Hi!
	4:06pm Monica: miss elkie a female yacht rock queen right there! glorious sounds, sheila xo
	4:06pm diciassette: Hi!
	4:06pm Travisano66: I like this song. "Fool If You Think It's Over"?
	4:07pm Travisano66: Brings me back to 1973.
	4:07pm R. Noel Fox: DjLorraine - yeah, the long term Covid illness is very similar to the health issues I've already been suffering from long term Lyme. A lot of the people in the Lyme Community have made many connections between the two.
	4:07pm Passaic River Blues: @Rob Kopp: thanks for the link to that Frank Valdor track!
	4:07pm Handy Haversack: Hi, Phillippe! Monica, loved your WAB selection this morning! (This morning? Yesterday? Time is feebling.)
	4:08pm Niall: “Driving Home for Christmas” is as close to a national song in Ireland as any.
	4:08pm dano59: Elkie slightly redeems the soft-rock Rhea legacy. That thing was inescapable on 70s AM, and was uncool even then.
	4:08pm steveo: elkie raking in the clickystars
	4:08pm Miss G: Aw, Chris Rea, for me I guess it is Peter, Paul and Mary.
	4:08pm Travisano66: I knew it wasn't really from 1973, but it sounded like it!
	4:09pm P-90: “Beige” is a legit color in the palette
	4:09pm Niall: I had no idea he wrote that “Ooh, If” song. Fantastic.
	4:09pm R. Noel Fox: Wheeee! I got a shout out!!!!
	4:10pm Monica: many thx, handy. love how clay pigeon hooks it up with his hilarious production.
	4:11pm HyperDose: @Fox So sorry to hear miss Kitka is having more seizures. So all other vet tests have been ruled out? :/
	4:12pm Miss G: Awww Daniel Blumin hallo! Miss you!
	4:12pm Rob Kopp: @Passaic River Blues: it's on 7"
	4:12pm R. Noel Fox: I miss Daniel Blumin!!!!!
	4:13pm P-90: DJ Dan’s return to the air is indeed eagerly awaited
	4:13pm Miss G: Their bass already has me at hello, these РИТУАЛЬНЫЕ УСЛУГИ
	4:15pm steveo: flute rock!
	4:15pm Morgan: dj sheila i read the tribute to amy winehouse in your newsletter. i wasnt a fan until after she died, and when i saw that documentary i couldn’t believe what a gross loser she fell for
	4:15pm DjLorraine: RnFox i just got checked for hEDS with the geneticist. I dont have the hereditary part but she sent me to PT because...i'm now hypermobile. It's dangerous and can be painful. I've had mecfs texting buddies that got surgery for CCI due to EDS. Anti diuretic hormone. Mold put a tiny tumor on my pituatary. I'm very aware of the lyme. They tested me 6x . Sorry you suffer with that.
	4:15pm R. Noel Fox: HyperDose: The only other tests are an MRI or a spinal tap. The regular vet told me to take her to a neurologist for those tests, and won't even change her medication to something else. Just told me to see a neurologist. I can't afford that. I already spent all my savings on vet bills. I've got a GoFundMe going to try and raise the money, but... I'd rather just put her on a different medication and get her out of his apartment first. I don't want to put my cat through a SPINAL TAP if I can avoid it.
	4:16pm Morgan: he was such a nothing and he destroyed her life
	4:17pm sispus: hi all and sheila!
	4:17pm sispus: no stars for russian crushes? :)
	4:17pm djsheilab: Morgan—What's such a shame is that so many people date gross losers and have a chance to wake up and realize and then get rid of them. Sadly she didn't have that chance.
	4:17pm steveo: in soviet russia, stars click you
	4:17pm djsheilab: sispus—Yeah what's that all about?!!
	4:18pm Morgan: i know :( it was heartbreaking to watch
	4:18pm steveo: i think you have to put in non-cyrillic, DJ
	4:18pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, there's a Unicode issue with the stars to click.
	4:20pm djsheilab: Handy Haversack + steveo—Ahhh....shame I have no idea how to write it out in English letters.
	4:20pm HyperDose: @Fox I saw that! I'm planning on chipping in once I get my situation sorted. I basically realized that staying in this slum of an apt is just wasting money and I could have a much nicer place suited to my needs (and where ceilings won't fall on me) for less. Been looking at 2br units all day. Almost nothing in my budget, add a cat to that and it's 0. So stuck for now unless I want to move to Philly (no thanks!).
	4:20pm steveo: maybe put funeral home?
	4:20pm Vanessa Tara: i was so incredibly sad when amy died
	4:20pm djsheilab: steveo—Good idea!
	4:20pm R. Noel Fox: DjLorraine - WOW! We are totally sickness buddies! I was told by a geneticist that I probably have "some kind" of EDS, but she's unsure which. I have all the comorbidities in my family (ASD, Tourette's, uterine prolapse), and my joints have all made sounds since I was in grade school. But I also have some kind of hereditary spinal deformity from the other side. I'm just a clusterfuck of shitty genetics. I have had a "bright signal" on my pituitary that's undiagnosed for years, long before I moved to the mold. I also have PCOS and endometriosis and hirsuitism.
	4:21pm Handy Haversack: I bet if you enclosed it in parentheses copied from a non-Cyrillic doc, it would work, DJSB.
	4:21pm Joe McG: Wow, Charo is still making records and sounding good!
	4:22pm steveo: she can play that guitar, Joe!
	4:22pm Miss G: I have the best clip of Charo. She was on the Isaac Mizrahi show around 2001. She was telling him she was a little girl with a dog who "wiggled" and everyone would yell "coochie coochie" and so she did that and everyone laughed and clapped and at this moment she became serious and dropped her accent "And I thought to myself, I'm gonna make a lot of money out of this."
	4:22pm sispus: maybe you can copy a star from the cells of other stars and paste there? dunno
	4:22pm sispus: ok :)
	4:23pm HyperDose: Wow, thought this was Stephane Wrembel for a second. Absolutely amazing!
	4:24pm djsheilab: Joe McG—Seriously! What an incredible woman she is.
	4:24pm chalmers: @HyperDose Stephane Wrembel is amazing, but he never traveled on The Love Boat!
	4:24pm djsheilab: A belated hello, Monica!
	4:24pm R. Noel Fox: DjLorraine - so are you on spironolactone for the ADH? I fear I will have to get CCI surgery in the future. every vertebrae of my neck is fucked, and now they are sliding out of place. I originally got on Disability because it was thought my issue was Chiari Malformation, and The Chiari Institute looked at my films and said I was a candidate. But they only took Medicare at the time, and it took me three years to get on Disability. When they looked at my new MRIs, they turned me down. So.... who knows?!
	4:25pm Joe McG: And on to one of my favorite songs of 2020!
	4:26pm Morgan: vanessa, i discovered only later what a loss fox i chipped in yesterday, it’s not a lot but hopefully itll help w meds
	4:26pm R. Noel Fox: HyperDose; It's a good time to be a person with a normal amount of money. Rents in Manhattan are PLUMMETTING. Everyone who could "go home" mostly lives in Manhattan, so I've been seeing two bedroom apartments for $1,800!!
	4:26pm headcleaner: a fascinating backstory, Melody Gardot has: https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/features/melody-gardot-accidental-musician-1819426.html
	4:26pm HyperDose: @chalmers The Love Boat is overrated. Ken and his Party Girls are all I need!
	4:27pm R. Noel Fox: Oh man! Oh you guuuuuys!!!! Morgan and Hyperdose: THANK YOU!! You are gonna make me cry.
	4:27pm djsheilab: Joe McG—Ahhhh this album is heaven! I love this and "From Paris With Love."
	4:28pm Vanessa Tara: note perfect segue
	4:28pm HyperDose: @Fox NYC is cool for catching a show or afternoon getaway. Living there would be a bit overwhelming for me. My main goal is to get as far away from people as possible. I'm much happier that way. ^_^
	4:28pm djsheilab: Hey HyperDose, Miss G + chalmers!
	4:29pm steveo: s.m. ken played a song 2 weeks ago and put the title in as "Olga Podluzhnaya (Ольга ПодлужнаяY)" and it has a star (i hope this is not TMI at this point)
	4:29pm steveo: artist*
	4:30pm Miss G: This song is nice thinking of Amy Winehouse. I didn't know this version, I have Blossom Dearie. ("nice" is not the correct word I realize)
	4:31pm Doug Schulkind: Ah! Laura!
	4:32pm djsheilab: Hey Doug Schulkind! Nice to have you here!
	4:32pm NikiA: R Noel: Where can I find your gofundme? Also, I live near you. Message me. I am willing to babysit your cat at least for a few days if you or she need a break.
	4:33pm Doug Schulkind: Where else would I be, @djsheilab?!
	4:35pm R. Noel Fox: NikiA: ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
	4:36pm R. Noel Fox: Sheila, is it ok if I post a link here to my GoFundMe?
	4:37pm Peter in SEA: Sophisticated Weekend! Late but looking forward to the show :-)
	4:38pm Ken From Hyde Park: Yip yip hooray for Joe!
	4:38pm NikiA: @R Noel: I pinged you through this platform with my email, you can email me.
	4:38pm lautomnedaniell: Yes, Segovia! Charo is wonderful
	4:38pm HyperDose: @NikiA You've been slacking on your 4:20 reminders. I've been forced to set an alarm!
	4:40pm NikiA: DAMMIT @HYPERDOSE!!!!! I was distracted by sick cats!! HAPPY 4:20 (and thanks for reminding me, LMAO)
	4:40pm Niall: Is Daniel Blumin not spinning these days? I haven’t heard him since I left the states.
	4:40pm R. Noel Fox: Has anyone ever seen It's All Gone Pete Tong? I was wondering if Sound of Metal was an American version of that film.
	4:41pm R. Noel Fox: Yay for 4:20!!! Meeee tooooo!!
	4:41pm Handy Haversack: @Niall, he came off the sched. with the September change.
	4:41pm cal: @Sheila The protagonist in Unorthodox was so brave!
	4:41pm DjLorraine: RnFox no i hadn't heard of that one. But we can speak the same language. Soladarity. (Clean housing for cats🙏).
	4:42pm djsheilab: cal—SO brave! And what an actress!
	4:42pm headcleaner: gosto muito
	4:42pm cal: Sheila-She touched my heart!
	4:44pm HyperDose: Thank you Sheila, this is really hitting the spot!
	4:45pm Carmichael: Hey!
	4:45pm djsheilab: HyperDose—My pleasure!
	4:45pm djsheilab: Carmichael—I thought this might bring you out!
	4:48pm Carmichael: Ha ha. Sadly, Chris Rainbow passed in 2015.
	4:48pm headcleaner: @RNF - @djsheilab may have not seen your question about posting the GoFundMe link, and I'm not one to speak for "station policy" (if there is any) - but GFM links have been posted here before in legitimate cases - so it should OK for you to post (I should think)
	4:48pm Passaic River Blues: Deborah Feldman, who wrote "Unorthodox," grew up in the Satmar Hasidic sect. I hail from outside Kiryas Joel in Orange County, NY, where most Satmars live other than Williamsburg. I remember learning as a kid that Satmars took the name of the town of their founding, Satu Mare (translation: St. Mary) in Romania. So Satmars are literally "Saint Mary Hasidim," one of life's little ironies.
	4:48pm NikiA: OOoooof this is taking me back. I grew up in Sri Lanka. Home vibes
	4:49pm R. Noel Fox: Speaking of "Rainbow" named people, Randy Rainbow is his real name!
	4:51pm Handy Haversack: Hey hey, Wilsen!
	4:53pm cal: @Passaic River Blues, I'm always curious about those who want to leave the Ultra Orthodox and the struggles they have. there was a documentary about that on Netflix or Amazon and it was very good.
	4:53pm Miss G: Passaic River Blues, not Rockland County NY for the Satmars? (I'm not up to the minute, have only heard this and that)
	4:53pm Carmichael: Chris Rainbow's surname was actually Harley. He didn't want to be confused with fellow Brit and labelmate Steve Harley.
	4:54pm R. Noel Fox: I love how round and bouncy the sounds were in that Ann Peebles song.
	4:55pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	4:56pm cal: I once got lost in Kiryas Joel on Thanksgiving when I was trying to get up to the Catskills and got diverted by the police on the highway during the thanksgiving weekend. Boy, that was a trip. Finally found my way out!
	4:58pm Vanessa Tara: perfect segue once again
	4:59pm NikiA: @Cal I watched that doc (Netflix), and I also l watched "Unorthodox" and "Shtisel," both of which I loved. I escaped an evangelical christian background, so I relate a little bit.
	4:59pm djsheilab: Thank you, Vanessa Tara :)
	5:00pm Jason from Houston: S W O O N
	5:00pm R. Noel Fox: headspace - I just seems presumptuous to do in a place like WFMU without asking first.
	5:01pm NikiA: R Noel, I posted your link on my Facebook too. I hope we can raise more for your little one
	5:01pm Vanessa Tara: and then, this revelation
	5:02pm NikiA: God, my mom used to just sing this loudly if me or my sister cried for silly reasons
	5:02pm headcleaner: @RNF - understood - hopefully Sheila or one of the other DJs can answer your question (DJs: R. Noel Fox was asking if it would be okay to post his/her GoFundMe link). It does seem that they're facing a very serious situation
	5:02pm WM: Helen Shapiro version of It's My Party is much better than Leslie Gore's. It is really true with was recorded before LG?
	5:02pm Miss G: re: Lesley Gore, I wish I could find the link where she says that men of her generation were set up in record company cushy jobs, but not her. . .was an eye-openeer
	5:03pm dano59: Ooh, I missed the @djsheilab Alan Parsons fix while I was at the bank drive-up (first world problems)
	5:03pm paddy in matawan: Love that Helen Shapiro version. She is a wild woman just going by looks.
	5:03pm Miss G: Was it "Angry Women in Rock?"
	5:04pm Ryansterlingvirtue: amazing set today, Sheila!
	5:04pm Marshall Stacks: That song paid for my pal's Bar Mitzvah, and then some
	5:04pm paddy in matawan: She kinda looks like Amy Winehouse in some pics and the low voice too.
	5:05pm Vanessa Tara: good for quincy!!!
	5:05pm P-90: The inescapable Phil Spector. He’s everywhere.
	5:05pm Marshall Stacks: Ken did that!
	5:06pm paddy in matawan: nuice!
	5:06pm R. Noel Fox: WOW!!! That's great!
	5:06pm Vanessa Tara: does helen actually sing "cry if i want to, sigh if i want to, die if i want to" in one chorus?
	5:06pm Faye: omg LOL
	5:06pm thesecoronalives: go staysh !
	5:06pm Miss G: snort Lemme tell you some stories about Wikipedia. . .anyway, yes, that was a great story about the 24 hour "It's My Party"
	5:07pm P-90: Ken’s also inescapable. He turns up at many key moments in history.
	5:07pm PaulRobeson1920: Very cool
	5:07pm mattgary: It's My Party- that was a lifetime keeper - the song and the story for sure! Wow..
	5:07pm Jason from Houston: Hahaha... That's a good one.
	5:07pm Passaic River Blues: @cal: I watched that documentary, too--it is excellent. Lots of parallels to other super orthodox/fundamentalist religious sects (fundamentalist Mormons, JWs, etc.).
	5:07pm NikiA: Yeah I feel like Ken is immortal
	5:07pm Handy Haversack: You can see Ken in crowd shots in Zelig.
	5:08pm Mennlinn Rebarts: My first political memory at age 6 was fearing nuclear annihilation caused by Ronald Reagan!
	5:08pm Tamar: The story and the story of the story are great!
	5:08pm paddy in matawan: Ronald Raygun
	5:08pm Passaic River Blues: @Handy: hahahaha
	5:09pm Ken From Hyde Park: He's been known to play "Institutionalized" covers for three hours.
	5:09pm headcleaner: I definitely remember the palpable sense of fear in the early Reagan years as well. You just knew that, if not nuclear war, then another Vietnam-type conflict for which we would all be drafted were basically inevitable
	5:10pm Handy Haversack: Says he still gets acorns flashbacks.
	5:10pm dano59: Was Ken crying about the Republican Party in 1980? I’m confused
	5:10pm That Goddam Todd: SUMMER BOY, Buffy Saint-Marie. That fits with today's theme!
	5:10pm djsheilab: R. Noel Fox—Just catching up with the comments. Yes, please feel free to post!
	5:11pm Melissa: Please play some of Riz Ahmed’s music! He’s a terrific musician!!
	5:11pm paddy in matawan: nice tune
	5:11pm R. Noel Fox: Ok, Thank you!
	5:12pm dano59: @Handy: haha! We used to - heck, still do - call Nick Hill “the Zelig of indie rock”
	5:12pm R. Noel Fox: My GoFundMe: www.gofundme.com...
	5:12pm R. Noel Fox: (for my cat)
	5:13pm headcleaner: @RFN - thanks, RNF - I'll make a careful note of that link!
	5:13pm Ali: This track is amaaaaazing
	5:14pm djsheilab: Tamar! Haha yes!
	5:14pm djsheilab: Hey Faye!
	5:15pm dano59: @Miss G - have you served as or considered being a Wikipedia editor? I’ve volunteered several years in the annual Art+Feminism Edit-a-thon.
	5:16pm djsheilab: Evenin' to Ali, dano59, Melissa + all of you just checking in!
	5:16pm Handy Haversack: Got it, Fox. Will share with some work animal lovers as well.
	5:16pm Mike Sin: Well, I learned today that Charo released a single in 2020!
	5:17pm djsheilab: Mike Sin—A master flamenco player! I am still in awe.
	5:17pm Ali: I just bought the Orion record on bandcamp Jeez... I miss record stores though.
	5:18pm djsheilab: Ali—Appreciate you supporting!
	5:19pm Ali: If I had the funds, I would buy a record every day!
	5:19pm headcleaner: I've always been kind of obsessed by the graphical aesthetics of hair salon imagery in my (not all that deep or expansive) travels throughout the world
	5:20pm Ali: @headcleaner 80s hair salon imagery needs to be compiled into a series of art books
	5:20pm Ali: That I would love to own
	5:21pm dano59: Oh, so that Orion wasn’t the band on the ultra-rare LP of yore? (Not the Elvis impersonator) - probably a Q for Gaylord. I’ll do Bandcamp Fridays, but I won’t pay the Ferryman.
	5:21pm DjLorraine: Mycotoxins or actinobacteria can be in dust which settles near the floor. Carpets and padding can contribute. A better living space may be beneficial.
	5:23pm james from witches' corner: @ godamn todd. great suggestion on buffy! love that one.
	5:24pm R. Noel Fox: Yeah. I really need a good vacuum cleaner. I was actually planning on buying a Dyson stick after Christmas when everything was on sale, but that's when Miss Kitka got sick.
	5:24pm R. Noel Fox: This Miaux is soooo soooooooothing and glowy.
	5:25pm headcleaner: @Ali - agree
	5:25pm Handy Haversack: Fox, we took two sickly kittens out of a Brooklyn back yard eighteen years ago. They had chlamydia and gonorrhea and ringworm. And Callipygian is still with us! All five pounds of her. Brooklyn back-yard cats sticking together.
	5:26pm Miss G: dano59 yes I get it, I can be a complainer or an action-person. But for all I know, you are my nemesis. wink I don't have the temperament to get into the _____ (leaving my adjective blank as an attempt at objectivity) of Wikipedia.
	5:27pm That Goddam Todd: Handy, CHEESE AND CRACKERS! Good thing it didn't have dropsy or catarrh or the chilblains... or quinzy!
	5:29pm R. Noel Fox: Handy: Eighteen!!! That makes me so happy!!
	5:32pm Mark Hurst: Brilliant show today, Sheila! Thank you
	5:32pm Ali: WFMU has been playing the heck out of this cover
	5:33pm eric from lake hiawatha: Amazing cover, Clay has been playing this, THANK YOU. Please check out their other songs.
	5:33pm djsheilab: Thank you so much, Mark Hurst! I thought about you today with the Australia Google announcement.
	5:34pm djsheilab: eric from lake hiawatha—I have. This is the clear winner on their new EP.
	5:34pm sispus: çok güzel!
	5:34pm HyperDose: New Julien Baker AND Widowspeak already? 2021 ain't that bad.
	5:34pm Mark Hurst: I'm trying to figure out what Australia did to get Google mad enough to threaten to leave. We should try it here!
	5:34pm Listening Out There: Just got here. Dang, missed Charo. There's always the archives...
	5:35pm Listening Out There: @Mark: I think Australian journalists and publishers wanted fair pay. Google, Facebook, et all want low-to-no cost. Journalists have to eat too....
	5:36pm Alexis: lol Empire Records
	5:36pm djsheilab: I love when a record becomes a hit on WFMU. I can't think of a recent record that has beaten US Girls 'In A Poem Unlimited.'
	5:36pm Rick G: Great cover. Such a sucker for this song
	5:36pm Mark Hurst: @Listening anything resembling fairness drives Google crazy. I love it. Let's have lots more fairness and equity
	5:36pm Handy Haversack: Ha, Mark, easy -- threaten to make them pay money! @Fox, and her appetite is still great [counts fingers].
	5:37pm BH: is the Australia thing sorta connected to a kinda longstanding unhappiness from other media outlets about the existence of Google News search? or is that a different thing?
	5:37pm tim from champaign (now washington): Hi Sheila and everyone! @Sheila - THe Special Pillow "1921" is close to US Girls as far as a FMU hit.
	5:37pm headcleaner: And Google gets a talking-to, in return: 'Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison quickly hit back, saying “we don’t respond to threats.” “Australia makes our rules for things you can do in Australia,” Morrison told reporters in Brisbane. “That’s done in our Parliament. It’s done by our government. And that’s how things work here in Australia.”'
	5:38pm dano59: A good record store clerk, defined: the one who hands you a copy of Widowspeak’s first EP and says, “here, I think you’ll like this”
	5:38pm Andres: Hey Sheila! Been doing some heavy choring and light thinking whilst enjoying today’s fine musical selections and stories. Thank you!
	5:38pm R. Noel Fox: Handy, that's so lovely to hear. That's actually what's giving me hope about Miss Kitka; the fact that she still has a healthy appetite.
	5:38pm Listening Out There: @BH: Yes, I think the two are related. Not just Google News, but news on Facebook, Apple resources, other licensors....
	5:38pm Miss G: I really needed those Pixies, thank you! (I thought Widowspeak was Lydia Lunch, am I crazy?)
	5:38pm R. Noel Fox: I am blasting this, btw.
	5:39pm Jett: On the road most of the day, but listening. You played a lot of greats, The Bobbettes, Anquette, Barbara Lynn, Ann Peebles, Helen Shapiro, lot's of favorites. Hope you and Alvy Singer are well, Very stressful day for me. All the best! @djsheilab
	5:39pm eric from lake hiawatha: @dano59 bless that brilliant person
	5:39pm Cooh John: Done with work so enjoying the end of another great show on the way home. Thanks, Sheila.
	5:40pm Listening Out There: (Cont'd) The concern for us, the readers, is availability of local news. Search for the term "news desert"...
	5:40pm West Trenton Vinnie: full tilt
	5:42pm dano59: @Miss G I haven’t joined the enemy, their rules are pretty rigorous but Wiki is a group effort and gives geeks like me the chance to help them fix inequities in their content - in this case women artists, mostly; I’ve also improved or created a number of music articles. (My work on “Teen tragedy song” cites @djsheilab!)
	5:42pm thesecoronalives: @headcleaner: Scott Morrison suxs, but.. broken clock ! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ @Mark Hurst: thought of you whilst texting my friend earlier this aft that, before we finally abolish the death penalty, we should bring back the chair one last time for zuck : - D @djsheilab: nice unexpected pixies choice!!!
	5:42pm LouV: sweet! I just got my AZIZAM! CD THANKS SHEILA!
	5:44pm Miss G: @dano59 I will look for your content and I'm sure now that you are not the person I'm thinking of, who is not a "group effort" kind of person, IMHO. Thank you!
	5:45pm goldenrules: i loved that wilsen song
	5:46pm djsheilab: goldenrules—It's a good one!
	5:46pm djsheilab: LouV—Hope you enjoy it!
	5:46pm That Goddam Todd: We live in a huge stone 1895 house, that we keep comically dark. I'm amazed I haven't broken my own neck coming down the grand stair and tripping over one of our dog.
	5:47pm listener james from westwood: Sheila: "Is Freddy Kruger gonna be with me until I die?" sounds like a line from a Nightmare on Elm St movie. Freddy would of course pop up and answer that question ironically.
	5:47pm djsheilab: That Goddam Todd—You are brave!
	5:47pm BH: print news media has a few problems right now, to put it mildly. Although the things i've read make it seem like Facebook was committing fraud in how they got some outlets to pivot to video.
	5:47pm Jett: Lynsey De Paul was so big in the U.K. around this time. Nice track! ty 4 playing @djsheilab
	5:47pm Handy Haversack: Q.v., "Ye've mastered a dead tongue, laddie -- but can ye handle a live one?!"
	5:48pm DjLorraine: Jett i hope things get better
	5:48pm dreamyandseedy: when i lived in an apt in a city i was much more scared than i've ever been in my house in the country where neighbors are too far away to see. out here every noise has an explanation (usually a critter). in the city every noise in the dark was unseeable and unexplainable
	5:49pm JohnEBGood: Talk to Keith Richard, Nothing scares him ; )
	5:50pm common: sheila b., all. good friday to you all! cheers!
	5:50pm Miss G: thinking of Mark Hurst and etc re: those anti-social medias, I just have to tell you, that for a person who did not participate and who _lost_ friends and loved ones, the ability to say "I told you so" does _nothing_ for my social standing -- they get irked even more
	5:50pm Jett: Sending some positive, and loving vibes your way, @djsheilab Thanks for another beautiful and creative gift from you. Stay safe and well. These Friday afternoons are always so precious to me, and so are you.
	5:51pm Miss G: (sorry) I would never actually say "I told you so" but they think, that I am thinking it.
	5:52pm djsheilab: Thank you Jett!
	5:52pm eric from lake hiawatha: Thanks again for another Friday afternoon 3 hour tour, a 3 hour tour. All be safe
	5:53pm pgalub: Great show, Sheila! 🎸
	5:53pm juan: Thanks for another wonderful show Sheila! Be well everyone
	5:53pm Miss G: Sweet voice of Steady Holiday "I just want some normalcy"
	5:53pm Mick: Thanks for the great show Sheila!
	5:53pm Vanessa Tara: thought this sounded like a judi sill record circa 1971 ... thx
	5:54pm Handy Haversack: It sounds so odd, but our plans just fell through. The threat of cold rain will do that when you can only hang out outside. Great show, Sheila! Lots of unexpected and wonderful turns. Glad to have been here. Be well, Boomers of the Sophisticated Booms!
	5:54pm Monica: thx for the friday vibes, mizz b. have a lovely wknd and best to all boom boomers.
	5:54pm michael z: Thank you Sheila for a glorious show. So perfect to just luxuriate in those sounds for three hours.
	5:55pm P-90: どうも DJ Sheila B. You’re a ray of light in the darkness yadda yadda yadda...
	5:55pm Listener John from NJ: Thank you, Sheila. Have a great week!
	5:56pm tim from champaign (now washington): Thanks Sheila!
	5:56pm cal: Had to leave and go work for awhile. Glad to be back for the ending. Enjoyed discussion about religious escapees and movies about them. Take care until next week, Thank you!
	5:57pm paddy in matawan: Awesome show!
	5:57pm Vanessa Tara: thx again, sheila!
	5:57pm Miss G: Oh gosh that Mamman Sani was heartbreaking! Thank you for an amazing show Sheila B! Thanks to Skeleton Crew and listeners!
	5:57pm lunarleigh: Sheila B, thank you for hugging us for 3 hours with audio magic and love again.....
	5:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Sheila and cool cats! 🐱
	5:57pm Kevin-san: Great show, Sheila!
	5:57pm R. Noel Fox: dreamy - Yes, I find the pitch black in the woods to be very relaxing and enjoyable.
	5:57pm ncjay: yes! thank you Sheila!
	5:57pm listener james from westwood: Many thanks, Sheila!!
	5:58pm the joke aisle: Thanks for providing generous Friday uplift! Greetings from SF, CA. I was here for the full 3 hours!
	5:58pm Morgan: thank you Sheila
	5:58pm R. Noel Fox: Thank you, Sheila!
	6:00pm JohnEBGood: djsheila you the best : )

	3:14pm matthew glass: FUNKY! Lovin' Miss Fatback. Keep bumpin' Sheila.
	3:16pm Docrock: Good afternoon DJ Shiela B. And everyone listening. Partly cloudy here in the Boogie down Bronx. Looking forward to 2days show.
	3:16pm Passaic River Blues: Speaking of breaks--this is awesome!
	3:16pm Marshall Stacks: A great track.
	3:17pm Michael 98145: yes
	3:17pm djsheilab: Hey matthew glass!
	3:17pm djsheilab: Hello Marshall Stacks + Docrock!
	3:17pm lex: No rugs are safe
	3:17pm EarlyMorningInSeoul: Sheila B for bringin' the funk and the beat this afternoon
	3:18pm Jason from Houston: ꒰⑅ᵕ༚ᵕ꒱˖ᐝ.∗̥✩⁺˚⑅ ♡
	3:20pm Despeinada from Texas: Dude Sheila you’re on fireeeeeee
	3:20pm Marshall Stacks: Another jammer! (Hi, djsheilab and all!)
	3:20pm djsheilab: Despeinada from Texas—Thanks! Vibin' off the spirit in the air!
	3:21pm Despeinada from Texas: We made it thru. Now onto the next level.
	3:21pm DjLorraine: * makes room for new musical treats *
	3:23pm Guido from Cologne: Bobbettes !!!
	3:23pm a polished polish lady: <3
	3:25pm emilie s: Bobbettes double play!! Fab!
	3:26pm blee: thumbs up for the Bobbettes, super cute.
	3:27pm winston legthigh: this killer set sure is a treat @djlorraine :)))))
	3:27pm Andrew_in_WI: Just switched over from Belock's show, and that Bobbettes track was seamless.
	3:27pm Michael 98145: Salutations, Citizen Sheila
	3:27pm NikiA: Hiiiiiiiiiiii, I am ready to boom boom
	3:29pm Handy Haversack: Nice avatar, NikiA. Panda?
	3:32pm listener james from westwood: Yay Alvy!!
	3:32pm P-90: Banzai Alvy!
	3:32pm paddy in matawan: Nice! Good Kitty!!!
	3:32pm Handy Haversack: Go on, Alvy!
	3:32pm Michael 98145: Yay, kitty!!
	3:32pm P-90: and thank you @Amy B!
	3:33pm paddy in matawan: Our Goji gets serious squirts when she sneeks some of Guapper's kibble. We tried feeing her raw chicken but she wouldn't eat it....
	3:33pm Morgan: hi all, hi sheila. good news about alvy!
	3:33pm R. Noel Fox: YAY for cats getting better! My poor cat is having seizures, I think from the mold in my apartment. I'm trying to supplement her food with vitamin B / thiamine. I've read that thiamine can be an issue with raw food diets, so if you start to notice any neurological issues with Alvy, try adding some thiamine to his diet.
	3:34pm Cooh John: Good to boom with you, DjLorraine. Nice getting a shoutout together. Working to the groove.
	3:34pm Ken From Hyde Park: Good for Alvy and the sushi diet!
	3:35pm djsheilab: R. Noel Fox—Awww your poor cat. I hope the thiamine helps her. And thank you for the advice!
	3:35pm NikiA: @Handy that is Boomie, my little chihuahua boy. Panda was a sweet fluffy black and white shih tzu <3
	3:36pm Despeinada from Texas: I hear Ian Dury vibes
	3:36pm DjLorraine: I was wondering how Alvy was doing. I look forward to Alvy's input.
	3:37pm Handy Haversack: Good dogs, NikiA!
	3:37pm djsheilab: Thanks for the Alvy cheer, Morgan, listener james from westwood, P-90, Paddy in matawan, Michael 98145, Handy Haversack, Ken From Hyde Park + DjLorraine!
	3:40pm northguineahills: 1986, the year I moved to Japan.....
	3:40pm djsheilab: Hey emilie s, a polished polish lady, bee, Andrew_in_WI + NikiA!
	3:41pm Carmichael: Heya Sheila and Boomalians. Settling in with chinese food and righteous tunes.
	3:42pm djsheilab: Hey Guido from Cologne + Carmichael!
	3:42pm NikiA: I just realized my dog's name is thematic to the show
	3:42pm NikiA: Oh god, Lianna La Havas is possibly one of my favorite artists. YES
	3:43pm Guido from Cologne: "Lianne La Havas" is the most convincing solo. She doesn't need a band.
	3:44pm djsheilab: NikiA—Her latest album is just stunning! Guido from Cologne—Agreed!
	3:44pm That Goddam Todd: Not for this afternoon's groove, but a request to share an all gal ensemble for a future show with country twang... Bluestone 739 - Staggerin' Willy
	3:44pm johnc: NGH- that's pretty cool. Why did you move to Japan and how long were you there for?
	3:44pm DavidL: Ooh yes. Her 2020 album may be my favorite of the year... so good.
	3:44pm dreamyandseedy: her voice has a beautiful tone
	3:45pm djsheilab: Thanks That Goddam Todd!
	3:46pm DjLorraine: R Noel Fox i found out in 2013 by the famous Dr Shoemaker that i have innate immune response. Mold severly effects my mitochonria, pain and brain fog. The first step in the protocol is get out of mold. It's been hard to do on measliy disabilty. I wish you the best in housing and life for you and your cat. It's also torturous when loved ones that are not effected have no idea what others are living with.
	3:46pm NikiA: @Dreamyandseedy - yes, her voice has a gorgeous tone, but so does her guitar. It's so recognizable, I can recognize it from a few notes up front before she even sings
	3:48pm Guido from Cologne: OMG the Cover of that Libanese Bossa! Any idea about the lyrics?
	3:50pm djsheilab: Guido from Cologne— I had the same reaction when I looked closer. Wild!
	3:51pm Passaic River Blues: @Guido: I was just thinking the same thing. Is that an AK-47 sitting against the wall? 1984 was a low point in the Lebanese Civil War, so maybe a comment about life during wartime?
	3:51pm DjLorraine: R Noel Fox i even went years where sound was painful. Music could not be in my life. Obviously i've had improvement and WFMU is my go-to for sound.
	3:53pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: Definitely making more noise...!
	3:54pm R. Noel Fox: DJLorraine - The mold has ruined my life. I moved to Jersey City six years ago, both for my Lyme Disease recovery, getting out of sunless shitholes in Brooklyn; and excited to be closer to WFMU and hoping to get to really be a part of the station, maybe learn to board op. Instead I ended up developing Histamine Intolerance (I cant' eat anything artificial or more than two days old, or any canned ingredients) and chronic hives; and Interstitial Cystitis, which left me in constant abdominal pain and having to pee every 15 minutes. For five years I thought I was forever unfuckable. I kept getting sicker. My migraines were near constant. My boyfriend left me. I'm also on Disability. I can't leave my moldy apartment until I get vaccinated because I can't afford to live my myself. But honestly, I've no idea where I'll go when I leave here. I'm too poor for affordable housing.
	3:55pm Guido from Cologne: @ Passaic River Blues: I was guessing so.
	3:55pm R. Noel Fox: DJLorraine - Same. The migraines were so constant that I rarely went to shows. I lived with a boyfriend with significant Tourette's who makes loud sounds constantly. It was hell.
	3:56pm R. Noel Fox: Am I the only one getting Mario Brothers vibes from this song?
	3:56pm Morgan: sorry about your kitka fox, its scary. i would offer to foster if i didnt have 3 cats, 1 of whom is dangerously possessive
	3:57pm R. Noel Fox: Awww, thank you Morgan! It's a hard sell, having a cat with seizures that needs medication every 8 hours.
	3:57pm djsheilab: R. Noel Fox—Total Mario Brothers vibes! No wonder I like it!
	3:58pm BH: hums to self lovvvingg you... is easy cuz you're beautiful...
	3:58pm steveo: i think my grandmother's console organ had this rhythm :)
	3:59pm AL: Loooveee Jockstrap
	4:01pm DjLorraine: R Noel Fox alot of folks have the MCAS. I had the polyuritis too. It's a real thing. They found out i dont make ADH and sometimes i use nasal desmopressin.
	4:02pm Rob Kopp: That previous tune reminded me a bit of Black market by Frank Valdor & Orchestra (feat. Nana Gualdi). Whenever you need a new tune, Sheila, this is for sure a candidate! www.youtube.com...
	4:03pm djsheilab: I'll check it out. Thanks Rob!
	4:03pm listener james from westwood: Oh, damn, haven't heard this Brooks track in forever!
	4:03pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	4:04pm R. Noel Fox: DjLorraine : I've got Ehlers Danlos Syndrome too, so between that and the Lyme Disease / Bartonella, figuring out the mold was present and causing problems took some time. MCAS is common with EDS, so I just attributed it to that, even though all these problems never started until I moved into this apartment. What's ADH?
	4:04pm DjLorraine: RnFox here is an excellent NYT article because long haul covid can turn to mecfs.www.nytimes.com...
	4:04pm HyperDose: Afternoon Sheila and fellow Boom Booms!
	4:04pm Clermont: Another fantastic show Sheila! This version of “Fool” is making me cry. Excellent.
	4:05pm Victor Eremita: Fool, if you think it's over, it's just vegan.
	4:05pm Miss G: Was just ready to stop working and listen when the room was filled with what I think is called "dank"? Oh I feel like I will faint is there something that will cover that smell up?! Thank you and hello Sophisticated Boom Boomers!
	4:05pm steveo: i was born on elkie brooks's birthday, i have just learned :)
	4:05pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey, I think I forgot to say Hi! Or forgot that I said Hi. Anyway, Hi!
	4:06pm Monica: miss elkie a female yacht rock queen right there! glorious sounds, sheila xo
	4:06pm diciassette: Hi!
	4:06pm Travisano66: I like this song. "Fool If You Think It's Over"?
	4:07pm Travisano66: Brings me back to 1973.
	4:07pm R. Noel Fox: DjLorraine - yeah, the long term Covid illness is very similar to the health issues I've already been suffering from long term Lyme. A lot of the people in the Lyme Community have made many connections between the two.
	4:07pm Passaic River Blues: @Rob Kopp: thanks for the link to that Frank Valdor track!
	4:07pm Handy Haversack: Hi, Phillippe! Monica, loved your WAB selection this morning! (This morning? Yesterday? Time is feebling.)
	4:08pm Niall: “Driving Home for Christmas” is as close to a national song in Ireland as any.
	4:08pm dano59: Elkie slightly redeems the soft-rock Rhea legacy. That thing was inescapable on 70s AM, and was uncool even then.
	4:08pm steveo: elkie raking in the clickystars
	4:08pm Miss G: Aw, Chris Rea, for me I guess it is Peter, Paul and Mary.
	4:08pm Travisano66: I knew it wasn't really from 1973, but it sounded like it!
	4:09pm P-90: “Beige” is a legit color in the palette
	4:09pm Niall: I had no idea he wrote that “Ooh, If” song. Fantastic.
	4:09pm R. Noel Fox: Wheeee! I got a shout out!!!!
	4:10pm Monica: many thx, handy. love how clay pigeon hooks it up with his hilarious production.
	4:11pm HyperDose: @Fox So sorry to hear miss Kitka is having more seizures. So all other vet tests have been ruled out? :/
	4:12pm Miss G: Awww Daniel Blumin hallo! Miss you!
	4:12pm Rob Kopp: @Passaic River Blues: it's on 7"
	4:12pm R. Noel Fox: I miss Daniel Blumin!!!!!
	4:13pm P-90: DJ Dan’s return to the air is indeed eagerly awaited
	4:13pm Miss G: Their bass already has me at hello, these РИТУАЛЬНЫЕ УСЛУГИ
	4:15pm steveo: flute rock!
	4:15pm Morgan: dj sheila i read the tribute to amy winehouse in your newsletter. i wasnt a fan until after she died, and when i saw that documentary i couldn’t believe what a gross loser she fell for
	4:15pm DjLorraine: RnFox i just got checked for hEDS with the geneticist. I dont have the hereditary part but she sent me to PT because...i'm now hypermobile. It's dangerous and can be painful. I've had mecfs texting buddies that got surgery for CCI due to EDS. Anti diuretic hormone. Mold put a tiny tumor on my pituatary. I'm very aware of the lyme. They tested me 6x . Sorry you suffer with that.
	4:15pm R. Noel Fox: HyperDose: The only other tests are an MRI or a spinal tap. The regular vet told me to take her to a neurologist for those tests, and won't even change her medication to something else. Just told me to see a neurologist. I can't afford that. I already spent all my savings on vet bills. I've got a GoFundMe going to try and raise the money, but... I'd rather just put her on a different medication and get her out of his apartment first. I don't want to put my cat through a SPINAL TAP if I can avoid it.
	4:16pm Morgan: he was such a nothing and he destroyed her life
	4:17pm sispus: hi all and sheila!
	4:17pm sispus: no stars for russian crushes? :)
	4:17pm djsheilab: Morgan—What's such a shame is that so many people date gross losers and have a chance to wake up and realize and then get rid of them. Sadly she didn't have that chance.
	4:17pm steveo: in soviet russia, stars click you
	4:17pm djsheilab: sispus—Yeah what's that all about?!!
	4:18pm Morgan: i know :( it was heartbreaking to watch
	4:18pm steveo: i think you have to put in non-cyrillic, DJ
	4:18pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, there's a Unicode issue with the stars to click.
	4:20pm djsheilab: Handy Haversack + steveo—Ahhh....shame I have no idea how to write it out in English letters.
	4:20pm HyperDose: @Fox I saw that! I'm planning on chipping in once I get my situation sorted. I basically realized that staying in this slum of an apt is just wasting money and I could have a much nicer place suited to my needs (and where ceilings won't fall on me) for less. Been looking at 2br units all day. Almost nothing in my budget, add a cat to that and it's 0. So stuck for now unless I want to move to Philly (no thanks!).
	4:20pm steveo: maybe put funeral home?
	4:20pm Vanessa Tara: i was so incredibly sad when amy died
	4:20pm djsheilab: steveo—Good idea!
	4:20pm R. Noel Fox: DjLorraine - WOW! We are totally sickness buddies! I was told by a geneticist that I probably have "some kind" of EDS, but she's unsure which. I have all the comorbidities in my family (ASD, Tourette's, uterine prolapse), and my joints have all made sounds since I was in grade school. But I also have some kind of hereditary spinal deformity from the other side. I'm just a clusterfuck of shitty genetics. I have had a "bright signal" on my pituitary that's undiagnosed for years, long before I moved to the mold. I also have PCOS and endometriosis and hirsuitism.
	4:21pm Handy Haversack: I bet if you enclosed it in parentheses copied from a non-Cyrillic doc, it would work, DJSB.
	4:21pm Joe McG: Wow, Charo is still making records and sounding good!
	4:22pm steveo: she can play that guitar, Joe!
	4:22pm Miss G: I have the best clip of Charo. She was on the Isaac Mizrahi show around 2001. She was telling him she was a little girl with a dog who "wiggled" and everyone would yell "coochie coochie" and so she did that and everyone laughed and clapped and at this moment she became serious and dropped her accent "And I thought to myself, I'm gonna make a lot of money out of this."
	4:22pm sispus: maybe you can copy a star from the cells of other stars and paste there? dunno
	4:22pm sispus: ok :)
	4:23pm HyperDose: Wow, thought this was Stephane Wrembel for a second. Absolutely amazing!
	4:24pm djsheilab: Joe McG—Seriously! What an incredible woman she is.
	4:24pm chalmers: @HyperDose Stephane Wrembel is amazing, but he never traveled on The Love Boat!
	4:24pm djsheilab: A belated hello, Monica!
	4:24pm R. Noel Fox: DjLorraine - so are you on spironolactone for the ADH? I fear I will have to get CCI surgery in the future. every vertebrae of my neck is fucked, and now they are sliding out of place. I originally got on Disability because it was thought my issue was Chiari Malformation, and The Chiari Institute looked at my films and said I was a candidate. But they only took Medicare at the time, and it took me three years to get on Disability. When they looked at my new MRIs, they turned me down. So.... who knows?!
	4:25pm Joe McG: And on to one of my favorite songs of 2020!
	4:26pm Morgan: vanessa, i discovered only later what a loss fox i chipped in yesterday, it’s not a lot but hopefully itll help w meds
	4:26pm R. Noel Fox: HyperDose; It's a good time to be a person with a normal amount of money. Rents in Manhattan are PLUMMETTING. Everyone who could "go home" mostly lives in Manhattan, so I've been seeing two bedroom apartments for $1,800!!
	4:26pm headcleaner: a fascinating backstory, Melody Gardot has: https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/features/melody-gardot-accidental-musician-1819426.html
	4:26pm HyperDose: @chalmers The Love Boat is overrated. Ken and his Party Girls are all I need!
	4:27pm R. Noel Fox: Oh man! Oh you guuuuuys!!!! Morgan and Hyperdose: THANK YOU!! You are gonna make me cry.
	4:27pm djsheilab: Joe McG—Ahhhh this album is heaven! I love this and "From Paris With Love."
	4:28pm Vanessa Tara: note perfect segue
	4:28pm HyperDose: @Fox NYC is cool for catching a show or afternoon getaway. Living there would be a bit overwhelming for me. My main goal is to get as far away from people as possible. I'm much happier that way. ^_^
	4:28pm djsheilab: Hey HyperDose, Miss G + chalmers!
	4:29pm steveo: s.m. ken played a song 2 weeks ago and put the title in as "Olga Podluzhnaya (Ольга ПодлужнаяY)" and it has a star (i hope this is not TMI at this point)
	4:29pm steveo: artist*
	4:30pm Miss G: This song is nice thinking of Amy Winehouse. I didn't know this version, I have Blossom Dearie. ("nice" is not the correct word I realize)
	4:31pm Doug Schulkind: Ah! Laura!
	4:32pm djsheilab: Hey Doug Schulkind! Nice to have you here!
	4:32pm NikiA: R Noel: Where can I find your gofundme? Also, I live near you. Message me. I am willing to babysit your cat at least for a few days if you or she need a break.
	4:33pm Doug Schulkind: Where else would I be, @djsheilab?!
	4:35pm R. Noel Fox: NikiA: ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
	4:36pm R. Noel Fox: Sheila, is it ok if I post a link here to my GoFundMe?
	4:37pm Peter in SEA: Sophisticated Weekend! Late but looking forward to the show :-)
	4:38pm Ken From Hyde Park: Yip yip hooray for Joe!
	4:38pm NikiA: @R Noel: I pinged you through this platform with my email, you can email me.
	4:38pm lautomnedaniell: Yes, Segovia! Charo is wonderful
	4:38pm HyperDose: @NikiA You've been slacking on your 4:20 reminders. I've been forced to set an alarm!
	4:40pm NikiA: DAMMIT @HYPERDOSE!!!!! I was distracted by sick cats!! HAPPY 4:20 (and thanks for reminding me, LMAO)
	4:40pm Niall: Is Daniel Blumin not spinning these days? I haven’t heard him since I left the states.
	4:40pm R. Noel Fox: Has anyone ever seen It's All Gone Pete Tong? I was wondering if Sound of Metal was an American version of that film.
	4:41pm R. Noel Fox: Yay for 4:20!!! Meeee tooooo!!
	4:41pm Handy Haversack: @Niall, he came off the sched. with the September change.
	4:41pm cal: @Sheila The protagonist in Unorthodox was so brave!
	4:41pm DjLorraine: RnFox no i hadn't heard of that one. But we can speak the same language. Soladarity. (Clean housing for cats🙏).
	4:42pm djsheilab: cal—SO brave! And what an actress!
	4:42pm headcleaner: gosto muito
	4:42pm cal: Sheila-She touched my heart!
	4:44pm HyperDose: Thank you Sheila, this is really hitting the spot!
	4:45pm Carmichael: Hey!
	4:45pm djsheilab: HyperDose—My pleasure!
	4:45pm djsheilab: Carmichael—I thought this might bring you out!
	4:48pm Carmichael: Ha ha. Sadly, Chris Rainbow passed in 2015.
	4:48pm headcleaner: @RNF - @djsheilab may have not seen your question about posting the GoFundMe link, and I'm not one to speak for "station policy" (if there is any) - but GFM links have been posted here before in legitimate cases - so it should OK for you to post (I should think)
	4:48pm Passaic River Blues: Deborah Feldman, who wrote "Unorthodox," grew up in the Satmar Hasidic sect. I hail from outside Kiryas Joel in Orange County, NY, where most Satmars live other than Williamsburg. I remember learning as a kid that Satmars took the name of the town of their founding, Satu Mare (translation: St. Mary) in Romania. So Satmars are literally "Saint Mary Hasidim," one of life's little ironies.
	4:48pm NikiA: OOoooof this is taking me back. I grew up in Sri Lanka. Home vibes
	4:49pm R. Noel Fox: Speaking of "Rainbow" named people, Randy Rainbow is his real name!
	4:51pm Handy Haversack: Hey hey, Wilsen!
	4:53pm cal: @Passaic River Blues, I'm always curious about those who want to leave the Ultra Orthodox and the struggles they have. there was a documentary about that on Netflix or Amazon and it was very good.
	4:53pm Miss G: Passaic River Blues, not Rockland County NY for the Satmars? (I'm not up to the minute, have only heard this and that)
	4:53pm Carmichael: Chris Rainbow's surname was actually Harley. He didn't want to be confused with fellow Brit and labelmate Steve Harley.
	4:54pm R. Noel Fox: I love how round and bouncy the sounds were in that Ann Peebles song.
	4:55pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	4:56pm cal: I once got lost in Kiryas Joel on Thanksgiving when I was trying to get up to the Catskills and got diverted by the police on the highway during the thanksgiving weekend. Boy, that was a trip. Finally found my way out!
	4:58pm Vanessa Tara: perfect segue once again
	4:59pm NikiA: @Cal I watched that doc (Netflix), and I also l watched "Unorthodox" and "Shtisel," both of which I loved. I escaped an evangelical christian background, so I relate a little bit.
	4:59pm djsheilab: Thank you, Vanessa Tara :)
	5:00pm Jason from Houston: S W O O N
	5:00pm R. Noel Fox: headspace - I just seems presumptuous to do in a place like WFMU without asking first.
	5:01pm NikiA: R Noel, I posted your link on my Facebook too. I hope we can raise more for your little one
	5:01pm Vanessa Tara: and then, this revelation
	5:02pm NikiA: God, my mom used to just sing this loudly if me or my sister cried for silly reasons
	5:02pm headcleaner: @RNF - understood - hopefully Sheila or one of the other DJs can answer your question (DJs: R. Noel Fox was asking if it would be okay to post his/her GoFundMe link). It does seem that they're facing a very serious situation
	5:02pm WM: Helen Shapiro version of It's My Party is much better than Leslie Gore's. It is really true with was recorded before LG?
	5:02pm Miss G: re: Lesley Gore, I wish I could find the link where she says that men of her generation were set up in record company cushy jobs, but not her. . .was an eye-openeer
	5:03pm dano59: Ooh, I missed the @djsheilab Alan Parsons fix while I was at the bank drive-up (first world problems)
	5:03pm paddy in matawan: Love that Helen Shapiro version. She is a wild woman just going by looks.
	5:03pm Miss G: Was it "Angry Women in Rock?"
	5:04pm Ryansterlingvirtue: amazing set today, Sheila!
	5:04pm Marshall Stacks: That song paid for my pal's Bar Mitzvah, and then some
	5:04pm paddy in matawan: She kinda looks like Amy Winehouse in some pics and the low voice too.
	5:05pm Vanessa Tara: good for quincy!!!
	5:05pm P-90: The inescapable Phil Spector. He’s everywhere.
	5:05pm Marshall Stacks: Ken did that!
	5:06pm paddy in matawan: nuice!
	5:06pm R. Noel Fox: WOW!!! That's great!
	5:06pm Vanessa Tara: does helen actually sing "cry if i want to, sigh if i want to, die if i want to" in one chorus?
	5:06pm Faye: omg LOL
	5:06pm thesecoronalives: go staysh !
	5:06pm Miss G: snort Lemme tell you some stories about Wikipedia. . .anyway, yes, that was a great story about the 24 hour "It's My Party"
	5:07pm P-90: Ken’s also inescapable. He turns up at many key moments in history.
	5:07pm PaulRobeson1920: Very cool
	5:07pm mattgary: It's My Party- that was a lifetime keeper - the song and the story for sure! Wow..
	5:07pm Jason from Houston: Hahaha... That's a good one.
	5:07pm Passaic River Blues: @cal: I watched that documentary, too--it is excellent. Lots of parallels to other super orthodox/fundamentalist religious sects (fundamentalist Mormons, JWs, etc.).
	5:07pm NikiA: Yeah I feel like Ken is immortal
	5:07pm Handy Haversack: You can see Ken in crowd shots in Zelig.
	5:08pm Mennlinn Rebarts: My first political memory at age 6 was fearing nuclear annihilation caused by Ronald Reagan!
	5:08pm Tamar: The story and the story of the story are great!
	5:08pm paddy in matawan: Ronald Raygun
	5:08pm Passaic River Blues: @Handy: hahahaha
	5:09pm Ken From Hyde Park: He's been known to play "Institutionalized" covers for three hours.
	5:09pm headcleaner: I definitely remember the palpable sense of fear in the early Reagan years as well. You just knew that, if not nuclear war, then another Vietnam-type conflict for which we would all be drafted were basically inevitable
	5:10pm Handy Haversack: Says he still gets acorns flashbacks.
	5:10pm dano59: Was Ken crying about the Republican Party in 1980? I’m confused
	5:10pm That Goddam Todd: SUMMER BOY, Buffy Saint-Marie. That fits with today's theme!
	5:10pm djsheilab: R. Noel Fox—Just catching up with the comments. Yes, please feel free to post!
	5:11pm Melissa: Please play some of Riz Ahmed’s music! He’s a terrific musician!!
	5:11pm paddy in matawan: nice tune
	5:11pm R. Noel Fox: Ok, Thank you!
	5:12pm dano59: @Handy: haha! We used to - heck, still do - call Nick Hill “the Zelig of indie rock”
	5:12pm R. Noel Fox: My GoFundMe: www.gofundme.com...
	5:12pm R. Noel Fox: (for my cat)
	5:13pm headcleaner: @RFN - thanks, RNF - I'll make a careful note of that link!
	5:13pm Ali: This track is amaaaaazing
	5:14pm djsheilab: Tamar! Haha yes!
	5:14pm djsheilab: Hey Faye!
	5:15pm dano59: @Miss G - have you served as or considered being a Wikipedia editor? I’ve volunteered several years in the annual Art+Feminism Edit-a-thon.
	5:16pm djsheilab: Evenin' to Ali, dano59, Melissa + all of you just checking in!
	5:16pm Handy Haversack: Got it, Fox. Will share with some work animal lovers as well.
	5:16pm Mike Sin: Well, I learned today that Charo released a single in 2020!
	5:17pm djsheilab: Mike Sin—A master flamenco player! I am still in awe.
	5:17pm Ali: I just bought the Orion record on bandcamp Jeez... I miss record stores though.
	5:18pm djsheilab: Ali—Appreciate you supporting!
	5:19pm Ali: If I had the funds, I would buy a record every day!
	5:19pm headcleaner: I've always been kind of obsessed by the graphical aesthetics of hair salon imagery in my (not all that deep or expansive) travels throughout the world
	5:20pm Ali: @headcleaner 80s hair salon imagery needs to be compiled into a series of art books
	5:20pm Ali: That I would love to own
	5:21pm dano59: Oh, so that Orion wasn’t the band on the ultra-rare LP of yore? (Not the Elvis impersonator) - probably a Q for Gaylord. I’ll do Bandcamp Fridays, but I won’t pay the Ferryman.
	5:21pm DjLorraine: Mycotoxins or actinobacteria can be in dust which settles near the floor. Carpets and padding can contribute. A better living space may be beneficial.
	5:23pm james from witches' corner: @ godamn todd. great suggestion on buffy! love that one.
	5:24pm R. Noel Fox: Yeah. I really need a good vacuum cleaner. I was actually planning on buying a Dyson stick after Christmas when everything was on sale, but that's when Miss Kitka got sick.
	5:24pm R. Noel Fox: This Miaux is soooo soooooooothing and glowy.
	5:25pm headcleaner: @Ali - agree
	5:25pm Handy Haversack: Fox, we took two sickly kittens out of a Brooklyn back yard eighteen years ago. They had chlamydia and gonorrhea and ringworm. And Callipygian is still with us! All five pounds of her. Brooklyn back-yard cats sticking together.
	5:26pm Miss G: dano59 yes I get it, I can be a complainer or an action-person. But for all I know, you are my nemesis. wink I don't have the temperament to get into the _____ (leaving my adjective blank as an attempt at objectivity) of Wikipedia.
	5:27pm That Goddam Todd: Handy, CHEESE AND CRACKERS! Good thing it didn't have dropsy or catarrh or the chilblains... or quinzy!
	5:29pm R. Noel Fox: Handy: Eighteen!!! That makes me so happy!!
	5:32pm Mark Hurst: Brilliant show today, Sheila! Thank you
	5:32pm Ali: WFMU has been playing the heck out of this cover
	5:33pm eric from lake hiawatha: Amazing cover, Clay has been playing this, THANK YOU. Please check out their other songs.
	5:33pm djsheilab: Thank you so much, Mark Hurst! I thought about you today with the Australia Google announcement.
	5:34pm djsheilab: eric from lake hiawatha—I have. This is the clear winner on their new EP.
	5:34pm sispus: çok güzel!
	5:34pm HyperDose: New Julien Baker AND Widowspeak already? 2021 ain't that bad.
	5:34pm Mark Hurst: I'm trying to figure out what Australia did to get Google mad enough to threaten to leave. We should try it here!
	5:34pm Listening Out There: Just got here. Dang, missed Charo. There's always the archives...
	5:35pm Listening Out There: @Mark: I think Australian journalists and publishers wanted fair pay. Google, Facebook, et all want low-to-no cost. Journalists have to eat too....
	5:36pm Alexis: lol Empire Records
	5:36pm djsheilab: I love when a record becomes a hit on WFMU. I can't think of a recent record that has beaten US Girls 'In A Poem Unlimited.'
	5:36pm Rick G: Great cover. Such a sucker for this song
	5:36pm Mark Hurst: @Listening anything resembling fairness drives Google crazy. I love it. Let's have lots more fairness and equity
	5:36pm Handy Haversack: Ha, Mark, easy -- threaten to make them pay money! @Fox, and her appetite is still great [counts fingers].
	5:37pm BH: is the Australia thing sorta connected to a kinda longstanding unhappiness from other media outlets about the existence of Google News search? or is that a different thing?
	5:37pm tim from champaign (now washington): Hi Sheila and everyone! @Sheila - THe Special Pillow "1921" is close to US Girls as far as a FMU hit.
	5:37pm headcleaner: And Google gets a talking-to, in return: 'Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison quickly hit back, saying “we don’t respond to threats.” “Australia makes our rules for things you can do in Australia,” Morrison told reporters in Brisbane. “That’s done in our Parliament. It’s done by our government. And that’s how things work here in Australia.”'
	5:38pm dano59: A good record store clerk, defined: the one who hands you a copy of Widowspeak’s first EP and says, “here, I think you’ll like this”
	5:38pm Andres: Hey Sheila! Been doing some heavy choring and light thinking whilst enjoying today’s fine musical selections and stories. Thank you!
	5:38pm R. Noel Fox: Handy, that's so lovely to hear. That's actually what's giving me hope about Miss Kitka; the fact that she still has a healthy appetite.
	5:38pm Listening Out There: @BH: Yes, I think the two are related. Not just Google News, but news on Facebook, Apple resources, other licensors....
	5:38pm Miss G: I really needed those Pixies, thank you! (I thought Widowspeak was Lydia Lunch, am I crazy?)
	5:38pm R. Noel Fox: I am blasting this, btw.
	5:39pm Jett: On the road most of the day, but listening. You played a lot of greats, The Bobbettes, Anquette, Barbara Lynn, Ann Peebles, Helen Shapiro, lot's of favorites. Hope you and Alvy Singer are well, Very stressful day for me. All the best! @djsheilab
	5:39pm eric from lake hiawatha: @dano59 bless that brilliant person
	5:39pm Cooh John: Done with work so enjoying the end of another great show on the way home. Thanks, Sheila.
	5:40pm Listening Out There: (Cont'd) The concern for us, the readers, is availability of local news. Search for the term "news desert"...
	5:40pm West Trenton Vinnie: full tilt
	5:42pm dano59: @Miss G I haven’t joined the enemy, their rules are pretty rigorous but Wiki is a group effort and gives geeks like me the chance to help them fix inequities in their content - in this case women artists, mostly; I’ve also improved or created a number of music articles. (My work on “Teen tragedy song” cites @djsheilab!)
	5:42pm thesecoronalives: @headcleaner: Scott Morrison suxs, but.. broken clock ! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ @Mark Hurst: thought of you whilst texting my friend earlier this aft that, before we finally abolish the death penalty, we should bring back the chair one last time for zuck : - D @djsheilab: nice unexpected pixies choice!!!
	5:42pm LouV: sweet! I just got my AZIZAM! CD THANKS SHEILA!
	5:44pm Miss G: @dano59 I will look for your content and I'm sure now that you are not the person I'm thinking of, who is not a "group effort" kind of person, IMHO. Thank you!
	5:45pm goldenrules: i loved that wilsen song
	5:46pm djsheilab: goldenrules—It's a good one!
	5:46pm djsheilab: LouV—Hope you enjoy it!
	5:46pm That Goddam Todd: We live in a huge stone 1895 house, that we keep comically dark. I'm amazed I haven't broken my own neck coming down the grand stair and tripping over one of our dog.
	5:47pm listener james from westwood: Sheila: "Is Freddy Kruger gonna be with me until I die?" sounds like a line from a Nightmare on Elm St movie. Freddy would of course pop up and answer that question ironically.
	5:47pm djsheilab: That Goddam Todd—You are brave!
	5:47pm BH: print news media has a few problems right now, to put it mildly. Although the things i've read make it seem like Facebook was committing fraud in how they got some outlets to pivot to video.
	5:47pm Jett: Lynsey De Paul was so big in the U.K. around this time. Nice track! ty 4 playing @djsheilab
	5:47pm Handy Haversack: Q.v., "Ye've mastered a dead tongue, laddie -- but can ye handle a live one?!"
	5:48pm DjLorraine: Jett i hope things get better
	5:48pm dreamyandseedy: when i lived in an apt in a city i was much more scared than i've ever been in my house in the country where neighbors are too far away to see. out here every noise has an explanation (usually a critter). in the city every noise in the dark was unseeable and unexplainable
	5:49pm JohnEBGood: Talk to Keith Richard, Nothing scares him ; )
	5:50pm common: sheila b., all. good friday to you all! cheers!
	5:50pm Miss G: thinking of Mark Hurst and etc re: those anti-social medias, I just have to tell you, that for a person who did not participate and who _lost_ friends and loved ones, the ability to say "I told you so" does _nothing_ for my social standing -- they get irked even more
	5:50pm Jett: Sending some positive, and loving vibes your way, @djsheilab Thanks for another beautiful and creative gift from you. Stay safe and well. These Friday afternoons are always so precious to me, and so are you.
	5:51pm Miss G: (sorry) I would never actually say "I told you so" but they think, that I am thinking it.
	5:52pm djsheilab: Thank you Jett!
	5:52pm eric from lake hiawatha: Thanks again for another Friday afternoon 3 hour tour, a 3 hour tour. All be safe
	5:53pm pgalub: Great show, Sheila! 🎸

	5:53pm Miss G: Sweet voice of Steady Holiday "I just want some normalcy"
	5:53pm Mick: Thanks for the great show Sheila!
	5:53pm Vanessa Tara: thought this sounded like a judi sill record circa 1971 ... thx
	5:54pm Handy Haversack: It sounds so odd, but our plans just fell through. The threat of cold rain will do that when you can only hang out outside. Great show, Sheila! Lots of unexpected and wonderful turns. Glad to have been here. Be well, Boomers of the Sophisticated Booms!
	5:54pm Monica: thx for the friday vibes, mizz b. have a lovely wknd and best to all boom boomers.
