Listener comments!
	3:01pm Handy Haversack: Fabio and the Failsafes! Greetings and future failures to all.
	3:01pm Carmichael: Hi Ho!
	👻 3:01pm chresti: Hi Giantland!
	3:01pm Baja Joe: Hidey ho!
	3:01pm HyperDose: Salutations fellow failures. Handy! What's on tap, friend?
	3:02pm βrian: I won't open the door until that giant man has fallen.
	3:02pm David in London: stumbles into the Lounge of Failure, knocking over a potted palm and spilling a glass of Cinzano Bianco down a lady’s dress Evening groovers! Howdy Fabio!
	3:03pm Handy Haversack: There's an actual cement mixer outside our bldg., and the driver is just leaning on his horn to somehow point out that traffic should move again. Secret weapon. Holy crap, the failure of everything. Hey, HyperDose. That's an excellent question. I might have to juice some limes to get away from this noise.
	👻 3:03pm Bas NL: It's the strengthening time again! Hi Fabio! Party people!
	3:03pm SeanG: hey Fabs and all
	3:03pm winston legthigh: failure finally gets the recognition it rightly deserves. greetings fabio, fabulous failures!
	3:04pm Stanley: Good he's gone. Let the esoteric sounds begin.
	👻 3:05pm Rev. Turnip Druid: MISTER Cherry.
	3:06pm Handy Haversack: Hmmm. Cement mixer left at the same time ...
	3:06pm Stanley: Om ah hung benza guru pema siddhi hung
	3:07pm βrian: @Handy: Time to write some Honku.
	3:08pm steveo: looooove this don cherry; hi, Fabio ust back from the "grocery store" least crowded i've seen it in a long time fun fact, i know a guy who wrote a (the?) "Honku" book and worked on the website
	3:09pm zopa: om ah hung hri ma ha ri ni sa ra tsa hri ya tsitta hring hring dza
	3:09pm manana: cherry-picking of the highest order unfolding..
	3:10pm Stanley: Was just thinking this should bring zopa to the surface. Hi zopa
	3:10pm βrian: @steveo: I participated in an analogous Harmoniku initiative. A harmonica in the wrong hands is a terrible thing.
	3:10pm zopa: hi stanley
	3:11pm βrian: Harmoniku autumnal quiet then shrieking harmonica slashing like a knife
	3:12pm Mark Kingsley: This isn't the Horizon records version of Chenrezig. It sounds like the version which was on Italian television.
	3:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...should be called Discordias...
	3:13pm Smog on the Tyne: Greetings Fabio and all fellow followers of failure. Looking forward to the usual eclectic mix to brighten the mood and lift the murk.
	👻 3:15pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Fabio and all. I believe the Telefunken handbook defines stereo as bimodal failure.
	3:15pm Smog on the Tyne: @David that was clumsy of you, I take off my dress before I start necking the vinos ;-)
	3:16pm steveo: even worse is the wrong lips, βrian (let me be clear that I'm NOT referring to don cherry or the current selection, which is also sublime)
	3:16pm David in London: How do Smoggy Tynester! I had a Leonard Rossiter moment.
	3:17pm tim from champaign (now washington): Fabio! Peoples!
	3:20pm Failer: Soundtrack to the birth of a black hole?
	3:20pm Smog on the Tyne: @David, hello mate, ha ha, oh it happens to us all 🤪
	3:21pm manana: like walking down the coolest trail, these sounds
	3:22pm Failer: or in the woods at night?
	3:23pm Failer: or in a terrence malick movie?
	3:23pm manana: all of the above and more
	3:24pm Morgan: safari thru failure
	3:26pm YETI BOB: I tried to make myself a grilled cheese sandwich. But I was so hungry I didn't wait long enough for the cheese to melt. Now I'm eating it anyway. Failure!
	3:26pm HyperDose: I turned on my vacuum and it didn't make it better. Anyone got any other ideas?
	3:26pm Lane: No, that's strength!
	3:27pm wfmu listener phillip: ahhhh😊😊😊 my Thursday is now complete with @FABIO 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😞
	3:28pm Smog on the Tyne: Magical stuff tonight, wild and wonderful jazz that flickers back on parts of your brain you thought had switched out the lights for good.
	👻 3:29pm Rev. Turnip Druid: a bassline you can live in.
	3:30pm wfmu listener phillip: I count the hours to the start of this show. and @fabios comforting voice.
	3:30pm Alvy Singer: My copy of Chi-Congo came with the rare Hieronymus Bosch poster.
	3:31pm wfmu listener phillip: I guess I'm the only one here who finds @fabios voice comforting calming to hear😁😁😁
	3:32pm Carmichael: My luncheon today consists of last night's rather greasy pizza, along with a refreshing diet beverage.
	3:32pm tim from champaign (now washington): SO I'vehad Chi-Congo for about 20 years. Just now the title hit me. My brain don'r work no gud sumtine.
	3:34pm tim from champaign (now washington): What are 'Pinky Violence' movies?
	3:35pm steveo: The Soul Fantastics. That's what that song app says is doin the ain't no sunshine
	3:35pm wfmu listener phillip: SPEAK! MAN!!
	3:35pm WM: Thanks for playing AEC. I was lucky to hear them live a few times. Please play more music from all the the members of the band.
	3:36pm wfmu listener phillip: that's better😊
	👻 3:37pm Rev. Turnip Druid: crap shoot. messy business.
	👻 3:37pm Bas NL: Yes we do!
	3:37pm steveo: and harder than shooting carp in a barrel
	3:38pm Zetti: Hanzo is insane, luv those films.
	👻 3:39pm Niall: I just heard “Hanzo: The Razor.” That’s not a film one hears about often, nor forgets easily.
	3:39pm wfmu listener phillip: the cataract in my left eye is getting worse. eye doctor says too much watching on my smartphone
	3:39pm Listener Howard & the Cats: @Tim - Japanese exploitation movies, largely from the '70s. Often featuring delinquent school girls & gangs. And usually great soundtracks.
	3:39pm Morgan: strength through showmanship
	3:40pm Morgan: aw nuts
	👻 3:40pm Niall: Tim from… there’s even a DVD boxed set, “The Pinky Violence Collection.” Ummm… specialists only, I suppose?
	👻 3:40pm chresti: Nutty in the hotbox, that's all we need to know.
	3:40pm Smog on the Tyne: Like, what issues is Fabio talking about? I didn't even notice! 🤣
	3:41pm Davefrom Brooklyn: Fabio thanks for all the music.
	3:41pm tim from champaign (now washington): @Listener Howard. Thanks for the explanation! I don't know if I've seen any but I have definitely seen 90s/00s throwbacks to those.
	3:41pm wfmu listener phillip: I swear if I could I'd donate my. COVID19 vaccine shot to fabio so he could come to the studio.
	3:41pm mariano: Heya Fabio, Crew, radio chums.
	3:42pm steveo: Fabio, thanks for doing your show. I know it's tough but it just sounds like regular from here and regular is good.
	3:42pm Zetti: Hanzo the Razor 2 The Snare has a great soundtrack.
	3:45pm Listener Howard & the Cats: @Tim - Tarantino has def included homages to some. "Female Yakuza Tale", "Sex & Fury", the "Girl Boss / Sukeban Buruusu" series, and the " Female Prisoner #701" series are maybe the best known/easiest to find? They're lots of fun!
	3:46pm Handy Haversack: For consumption cold, Carmichael?
	3:48pm Miss G: I didn't hear who this is, but the music has a sense of dread commensurate with the wiring issues of the Hotbox in this full moon
	3:49pm tim from champaign (now washington): @Miss G - I'm guessing it's La Tene related.
	3:50pm Zetti: I should add a warning. The Hazo series of films may be offensive to some. This is extremely harsh exploitation.
	3:50pm Morgan: @msG Is it one of those really big full moons
	3:52pm Miss G: @Morgan if you mean visually, last night I couldn't see as it was snowing. It is a "big deal" if you follow astrology at all.
	3:54pm Chris from DC: Googles David Maranha frantically
	3:55pm Miss G: Tim from Champaign - La Tène and Maranha on same label, is that it?
	3:55pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Mariano, steveo.
	3:56pm steveo: ydnaH elloH
	3:56pm Carmichael: @Handy, I brought it up to room temperature. And no anchovies, sadly.
	3:58pm Listener Howard & the Cats: That sorta reminded me of the music from LORDS OF SALEM.
	3:59pm tim from champaign (now washington): @Miss G - upon actually doing some internet machine research, it looks like LaTene and David Maranha are unrelated. I was making a guess based on the mesmerizing plodding drone sounds both share.
	4:01pm tim from champaign (now washington): @Miss G - A-ha! I see the connection you made now! Very cool. Please don't listen to me in the future :)
	👻 4:03pm chresti: Whatever is happening in the hotbox, the sounds are good over here. Will continue listening and commenting from our respective nutty hotboxes
	4:03pm Miss G: @Tim oh, no, I'm so happy you spoke up because I'm going to check out La Tène and their 2018 <hurdy-gurdy/harmonium/percussions trio welcomes two bagpipes (cabrettes and 23” to be exact), and a combo of string instruments (12-string guitar and electric bass).> wow!
	4:06pm Lixiviated Life: hello friend
	4:06pm PaulRobeson1920: Goood afternoon Ya’ll
	4:07pm Failer: Cloris was great--she was beautiful and had a kind of vulnerability about her
	4:07pm tim from champaign (now washington): @Miss G - Cool! I first heard La Tene on Fabio and Bryce's show. If you liked David Maranha you will absolutely dig La Tene.
	👻 4:07pm Niall: Kiss me deadly. The audio from that movie's ending still haunts me
	4:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: She was so talented & funny & kind. (Seemingly.)
	4:08pm Morgan: i only know cloris’ comedy roles. im a philistine
	4:08pm Failer: He's a horny kid
	4:09pm Morgan: wow good review, will see
	4:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: But Morgan - who was better than her @ it?
	4:09pm tim from champaign (now washington): I remember that scene now. Fabio's not kidding.
	4:12pm tim from champaign (now washington): I just requested Kiss Me Deadly and Last Picture Show from my local library.
	4:12pm WM: Bogdonivich made two films before LPS - Targets and (uncredited) Voyage to the Planet of Prehistoric Women. (I don’t think even Cloris Leachman could have done much with that one.)
	4:13pm Lixiviated Life: The scene youtu.be...
	4:13pm northguineahills: I saw Bertolucci's "1900" (1975) (director's cut), 5.5 hours (took two weekends to finish). Couldn't find an Italian version (found it on Hulu), so, the English dub was clumsy. Basically, the story of socialism vs fascism, landowners vs peasants, from the late 19th c to the end of wwii. Had the most adolescent male frontal nudity since I saw Makevejev's "Sweet Movie" (also 1975)
	4:14pm Morgan: @rabbit sure. its stunning too when you only know an actors comedies then discover they have real range
	4:14pm Failer: 94--a good age, a nice long life. Bon voyage, Cloris!
	4:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: She had a barrowful of Awards I gather...
	4:19pm mariano: Handy, what's shakin'!
	4:20pm spodiodi: hey Fabio! hey everyone!
	4:21pm David in London: Back in the room. What’s shaking groovers?
	4:21pm David in London: Mariano, Spod, yo!
	4:22pm HyperDose: Spodiodi and David, you're just in time. We're all about to start playing our commemorative WFMU tuning forks!
	4:23pm David in London: NGH. Ah, Sweet Movie! The best wee-ing this side of the dinner table.
	4:23pm Handy Haversack: The cocktails, Mariano, in 3 ... 2 ... 1 ... Hey, spodi!
	4:24pm spodiodi: yo David, Handy! Hyper, thanks -- mines burried in a plate of spaghetti. i'll warsh it off
	4:24pm βrian: Well, my workplace just had to be evacuated due to a bomb threat. All clear now, but oy.
	4:26pm ChukAmok: @βrian WTF?! That's crazy!
	4:26pm ChukAmok: Troubling times indeed...
	👻 4:27pm chresti: Nice steal, spodi!\\//
	4:27pm βrian: A Seven-Eleven across the street was said to be the target.
	4:27pm slugluv1313: greetings, Fabio and Skeleton Crew and Failure Family! been listening since i got in awhile ago, have not had the chance to say HELLO! until now -- REALLY enjoying the music/energy (been a seriously stupid stressful day)
	4:29pm tim from champaign (now washington): That's terrible, Brian. I'm glad to hear it was a hoax.
	4:29pm ChukAmok: No doubt the natural result of a bad taquito.
	4:30pm βrian: The more imminent threat is State republicans repealing the Governor's mask mandate.
	4:30pm WM: @Tim from Champaign: The novel LPS by Larry McMurtry is better than the film by Bogdanovich, LPS was B's best movie precisely because it was based on a good novel.
	4:31pm slugluv1313: @ Brian -- holy crap! glad you are okay, but still -- WTF!!!
	4:31pm Failer: I love when my office has to be evacuated...
	4:31pm Krys O: I also loved Cloris Leachman in Lovers and Other Strangers.
	👻 4:31pm chresti: Wow, βrian.
	4:31pm ChukAmok: Ugh. And then all the taquito breath will be free to mingle with the regular, fresh air. Hail to the mask!
	4:31pm Handy Haversack: Oof, βrian, what a thing.
	4:32pm Failer: Evacuation is good
	4:32pm ChukAmok: At least you live in a state where there is a mask mandate.
	4:32pm Failer: if you know what I mean
	4:32pm ChukAmok: There was one here, but people either ignored it or sued to get out of it.
	4:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I am full of Liberal guilt for ignoring the Big Gulp rage lo these decades...
	4:33pm Morgan: ah what i wouldn’t give for a good old fashioned bomb threat
	4:34pm northguineahills: ok, reality is getting strange, βrian. 7-11? The last time I was evacuated from a bomb threat was on a BSA trip to the UK from an IRA bomb threat at a tube station. (that was '93)
	4:35pm βrian: @Morgan: I'm sure Handy could help you out. He's quite the mixologist, I hear.
	👻 4:35pm Ken From Hyde Park: For the first month or so, my own stinkbreath under the mask was terrible. It doesn't bother me anymore. Olfactory failure, I guess.
	4:36pm βrian: Latest update: At least two local 7-elevens were targeted.
	4:36pm Morgan: lol really i hope you’re ok brian
	4:37pm Handy Haversack: I have only found two masks that reliably don't cause my glasses to fog. Yeesh, βrian! Save the Slurpee machines! We can pour booze in them and send to Mariano in New Orleans!
	4:38pm Failer: Hey guys, I was wondering, are there any cocktails that include or feature ketchup or mustard. I know you all would prob. know the answer
	4:39pm Handy Haversack: Also, hi, slugluv! Sorry about your day. I was thinking mine had been sort of stupid, too, but βrian is putting it all in perspective for me.
	4:39pm Failer: or, pickle juice
	4:40pm Failer: Actually, I think cocktails with ketchup, mustard, or pickle juice would be total failures
	4:41pm mariano: Paper Moon is an absolute joy. Madeline Kahn's character, Trixie Delight, is one of her best creations.
	4:41pm Failer: Small Axe!!! Keeps reverberating in my mind
	4:41pm slugluv1313: hiya Handy! thanks! and yes, exactly -- all sorts of minor crap that ends up wasting a lot of time & energy -- but no bomb threats! and agreed! send those liquored up slurpee machines to mariano!
	4:41pm Miss G: In "Lover's Rock" the cinematography blew my mind! (Small Axe) so gorgeous
	4:42pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, we're in four out of five so far on Small Axe. All excellent so far.
	4:43pm slugluv1313: hiya mariano! yes, Paper Moon -- another i have not seen in ages (may have seen it when i was in college, when NYC still had theaters that screened "older" movies)
	4:43pm mariano: βrian: Just catching up on posts, been busy with other stuff. Sorry to hear about that, glad you're OK.
	4:43pm Handy Haversack: @Failer: Hot dogdka. Though which condiment to use as a garnish is a pretty controversial topic.
	4:43pm Miss G: And "Silly Games" is a funny earworm to have (was watching that scene as each of my two young neighbors had a loud late party, so that was cute [I guess])
	4:44pm chris_in_space: I always heed your film recos, @Fabio; most recently with the Lebowitz "Pretend It's a City" series.
	4:44pm Failer: @ Handy: LOL
	4:44pm tw2sheds: FYI ketchup and mustard can go with anything, but not necessarily together. Or in beer.
	4:44pm Krys O: Recently re watched What's Up Doc? for Madeline. A goddess, she was
	4:45pm tim from champaign (now washington): The intro to Magic Carpet Ride fools me every time I hear it thinking that I'm in for a great jam but then it turns into Steppenwolf.
	4:45pm Failer: Speaking of hot dogs, I've always thought of veggie dogs as basically being like nitrite-flavored tofu
	4:45pm coelacanth∅: that was steppenwolf. what's egnekn (etc)?
	4:45pm northguineahills: @Ken: If I eat garlic, I need to wash that mask before the next time I wear it...
	4:45pm David in London: “What am I? A wabbit?” Classic Madeline Kahn.
	4:46pm WM: I think the career of Bogdanovich proves exactly the opposite of the auteur theory - the idea that the director is the sole author of a film and can transform junk into jewels through the magic of directorial style. When he had a good story (LPS) he made a good film and when he was left on his own he just rehashed scenes from the extensive list of films he had viewed.
	4:46pm Davefrom Brooklyn: The Pusher Man, aka,Bill "The Jabber"gates!
	4:46pm slugluv1313: @ßrian -- oh geez -- any "logic" behind targeting 7-11 stores?!? (what state are you in?)
	4:46pm egould310: God damn
	4:47pm slugluv1313: GEN KEN!!! <3 <3 <3
	4:47pm mariano: Hey slugluv! David: Haha! Or that scene shot from behind the closed door where she tells the hotel front-desk guy when he's dropped his trousers "My, ain't you a show dog?"
	4:47pm Davefrom Brooklyn: Goshdarn!
	4:47pm slugluv1313: meditations indeed :)
	4:47pm coelacanth∅: tim you don't like the magic carpet ride jam? (i like it)
	4:47pm steveo: my mind enjoys this gutter
	4:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Don't walk around with a head full of Cinema like I do Musics - but have often thot even great Directors too often lack - yerknow - the Writer...
	4:47pm HyperDose: Soothing
	4:48pm Failer: I gotta say, I think Scorcese is amazing in all his film endeavors but he too needs a good script; and when he gets a good script, like Taxi, look what he can do!
	4:48pm David in London: Peter Biskin goes in pretty hard on Bogdanovich in Easy Riders, Raging Bulls as I remember. And, raw talent aside, massive amount of egomania and coke weren’t a good recipe for steady, creative highs. See also Friedkin, P.
	4:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Directing @ best is a Benevolent Dictatorship & all this... Myopia can result.
	4:49pm Handy Haversack: You couldn't be more wrong, David! It's working fine for me! You'll see! You'll ALL see! I'M GOING TO BE A STAR!
	4:49pm Failer: One of the most impressive things to me about Steve McQueen is that he seems to be able to write great scripts as well as having amazing directorial skills
	4:50pm Rich in Washington: This is wonderful. It brings to mind Terry Riley's You're No Good.
	4:50pm Failer: Maybe a kind of test for great directors is how far can they go with a great script?
	4:50pm Davefrom Brooklyn: A lot.
	4:50pm tim from champaign (now washington): Klassic Rock Meditations is really hard to find on the internet machine.Fabio could you give some details about it on the next mic break?
	4:51pm tim from champaign (now washington): @Rich in Washington - totally!
	4:51pm Smog on the Tyne: Yikes!
	4:52pm βrian: I'm working from home, but I do have colleagues who were displaced. But as I said, the all-clear was given.
	4:52pm David in London: I make an exception in your case, Handy. Rev Rabbit, I think it’s a Von Stroheim inspired myth that too many people who make films still buy into, the filmic equivalent of joining the 27 Club in rock and roll. It doesn’t have to be that way, but it often is. I saw it writ large with my cohort at film school.
	4:53pm mariano: Handy: Especially if you adopt a stage name like Lionel Twain.
	4:54pm βrian: @slugluv1313: Madison, WI.
	4:54pm Handy Haversack: Well, that worked on me. Consider me meditated! Mariano, probably on a tenner a day, and I know what for!
	4:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...ambition perhaps more accessible than inspiration...
	4:55pm Rich in Washington: @tim from champaign (now washington): I am similarly looking and coming up with bupkis
	4:56pm David in London: Lionel was my dad’s middle name. I always thought it was rather ludicrous. Apologies to any Lionels present here.
	4:56pm steveo: many bupkis here as welll
	4:56pm Stanley: Catch Lionel hahaha
	👻 4:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: Who's taking on the PushER / Party Girls remix?
	4:57pm Mister Dobalina: CinePhobe, RIP.
	4:58pm Handy Haversack: DEEP in the bupkis bag. Well, Ken, god damn!
	4:58pm David in London: Is Cinephobe definitely defunct now then? Bugger.
	4:59pm tim from champaign (now washington): @Rich - the Gen Ken kut also reminded me of Christian Marclay's More Encores.
	4:59pm PaulRobeson1920: Inspiration, move me brightly...
	5:00pm nic: love her!!!
	5:00pm tim from champaign (now washington): There's probably some sort of Gen Ken/Fabio payola going on. Which way the payola is flowing, I do not know.
	5:00pm Davefrom Brooklyn: Mariano,Lionel Twain initiated a hearty guffaw!
	5:01pm wfmu listener phillip: HOLY KATZ! its 5pm already. that was a fast 2 hours
	5:03pm wfmu listener phillip: hey that "circle attractor part 1" was a great track is it available on itunes
	5:03pm steveo: you know I've smoked a lot of pills
	5:05pm mariano: Handy: Apparently that quip and the Uncle Monty seduction scene come from Bruce Robinson's experience with Zeffirelli during the filming of Romeo and Juliet. Now I must hear "What Is a Youth?", one of my favorite 60s film songs along with "Windmills of Your Mind." Davefrom BK: Always glad to be the source of yuks. It's a dangerous thing though to get Handy, David, and me started on the Withnail quotes, we're liable to wind up in the back of the van.
	5:09pm Miss G: Now you guys have made me play a clip on my HD "throw yourself into the road darling, you haven't got a chance" (with Hiss Tracts behind it)
	5:10pm Handy Haversack: Vim under the sink. And both bars on. Miss G, these aren't accidents!
	5:11pm northguineahills: First Brian Eno album I got.....
	5:12pm TDK60: Hola Fabio. A basically failed day here at the cassette castle.
	5:13pm mariano: Scrubbers! [David, a little help with the lingo, never quite knew the precise meaning]
	5:15pm David in London: You’re doing fine Mariano. But an expert on bulls you are not.
	5:15pm Handy Haversack: \\ //, TDK60. Just flip it over and try the other side.
	5:17pm Handy Haversack: tim, the obscure payola seems more and more likely. They're big fans. For many reasons. Mmmmmm-hmmmmm.
	5:18pm ledzeppelinsucks: maybe that author is the same girl that names chinese restaurants
	5:19pm ChukAmok: @TDK Could be worse. Could be an interminable TDK120.
	5:20pm wizard frog: delightful
	5:20pm TDK60: Ha Handy.
	5:21pm ledzeppelinsucks: I have been doing IT project at Game Stop stores. Those fucking places are patronized by addicts and people in crisis. People constantly trying to sell games and many times a day women escort young men into the store to sell their console. It's the culmination of an ultimatim. Game addicts play 22 hours a day. That addiction is high overhead. An internet connection, couch, electricity and a structure to host those things is required. And there has to be an enabler paying for it.
	5:21pm Miss G: L one of the aforementioned neighbors just stormed out and slammed the door. Don't blame me, it's Fabio, hangover kid!
	👻 5:22pm chresti: Hi TDK60 \\ //
	5:22pm WM: Fabio: I think the phenomenon you are referring to is called semantic satiation - when a word is repeated so often it loses its meaning and becomes just a sound.
	5:23pm wfmu listener phillip: just 37 min left in the show boy that went fast. I gulped down my dinner so fast I never tasted it
	5:24pm TDK60: Hi Chresti. \\ //
	5:27pm mariano: ledzepsucks: I play one or two games a year, I'm a fan of the non-linear open-world ones where you can wander around and do whatever you like. They can be really addictive, and when I play, I tend to binge like I do with a series I'm hooked on. Thankfully though, there are months if not a year between them. My ADHD works as a great failsafe in that regard (I'm diagnosed, not just saying I have it as some folks do).
	👻 5:28pm Rev. Turnip Druid: meetings make miss everything.
	5:31pm Carmichael: No shit, RTD. Just got off a Skype call where no one could hear each other. We're in the middle of a massive storm that knocked out power to 100,000 people.
	5:31pm dale: mariano - i think most fmu listeners are as such afflicted. it's a sign of creativity.
	5:32pm Davefrom Brooklyn: I remember how, as a kid, monopoly and Risk were...is the right word addictive? Risk marathons lasted days.
	5:33pm Smog on the Tyne: I love this Eugene Marcelissen material, yet another StF discovery, thank you Fabio.
	5:35pm spodiodi: agree w dale (if not most, many)
	5:36pm βrian: Can we collectively call ourselves STFUnited?
	5:36pm dale: there was a game my neighbors had called blitkrieg - it was a wwii nai theater strategy game. i never 'got' it and it took days to play. really stupid when battleship could be done in a half hour.
	👻 5:36pm chresti: Tomorrow never knows, I thought I could hear..
	5:36pm northguineahills: @Dave: when I was 13, I played Risk w/ my friends that last all summer vacation (no one won).
	5:37pm dale: nazi theater...
	5:37pm spodiodi: has a nice ring, βrian. i'll allow it 👍
	5:37pm northguineahills: ,,,lasted all summer...
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm just streaming FMU all the damn time...
	5:39pm Krys O: TCM has a podcast series of conversations with Bogdanovich and I had absolutely zero interest in hearing it. OTOH, I was mesmerized by their 14 part series on Women Make Film featuring Mark Cousins' documentary of the same name. Riveting.
	5:39pm mariano: dale: I'll take it. DavefromBK: Oh yeah, many an intense Risk session when I was younger. Up till 4 a.m., everyone chain smoking, lifelong friends hating each other and trying to stab each other in the back with the alliances. Good times. I forget where I read this, but in every picture of Putin, his expression is that of your best friend as they're about to wipe you off the map in Risk.
	5:40pm northguineahills: (it gets to the point where, you scream, "will someone please win!")
	5:40pm Handy Haversack: Risk and Monopoly ... wow in my mind could not be more different! Risk is so elegant in its mechanics. Monopoly is pure chance! ngh, we usually call Risk with "balance of power" once there are only two players left. I have a 1957 edition (I think first ed.?) with wooden pieces!
	5:40pm mariano: Case in point: bit.ly...
	5:42pm Miss G: @Kry O thank you for mentioning that Mark Cousins docu series because I only knew his first one. We loved it and would often imitate his soothing Scottish hushed voice doing a narration. . .
	5:43pm dale: i thought this was annie haslam. whoopsie.
	5:43pm tim from champaign (now washington): Now we're talking! Nico is so great!
	5:43pm TDK60: Always feel a winter vibe from this Nico cut.
	5:43pm tim from champaign (now washington): @dale - I can hear that.
	5:43pm Miss G: Nico is a perfect voice to bring us back to so-called reality at this point in the show
	5:44pm northguineahills: @Handy: In my example, there were three players. After a while, it was just a war of attrition no one could possible win unless someone got lucky.
	5:44pm mariano: Any of y'all ever play Steve Jackson's Illuminati game? Man we used to have fun playing that my freshman year of college. en.wikipedia.org...
	👻 5:44pm chresti: Risk was a favorite with the crowd I hung out with when I lived at home.
	5:44pm Anita: Love Nico
	5:45pm dale: i'd love to hear nico sing carpet of the sun - what a downer she'd make it!
	5:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Amazing damn track.
	5:45pm WM: Nico! Much thanks!
	5:48pm tim from champaign (now washington): Yes! Happy birthday Robert Wyatt.
	5:49pm WM: Wordsworth describing Newton: The marble index of a mind forever / Voyaging through strange seas of thought, alone.
	5:49pm Handy Haversack: Hot dogdka, that Nico cut! So great. And then Soft Machine! This is a set and a half!
	5:49pm Krys O: @Miss G: For WMF he had Tilda Swinton, Jane Fonda and others do the narration. Cousins appeared to do an intro with Alicia Malone before each episode. I too was enraptured by his voice.
	5:49pm wfmu listener phillip: Another Wonderful Show. T.Y. @Fabio & the skeleton crew
	5:50pm wfmu listener phillip: SAD ITS OVER😭😭😭
	5:50pm coelacanth∅: had a Kevin Ayers binge yesterday, glad to continue it
	5:50pm Krys O: Thanks, Fabio and everyone!
	5:50pm common: excellent show as always, fabio. hello all!
	5:51pm PaulRobeson1920: Gotta LoVe WFMU!
	5:52pm northguineahills: grazie, Fabio!
	5:53pm coelacanth∅: i always thought Ayers' voice didn't fit his appearance
	5:53pm dale: i liked that guitar chord slamming over all green - it was timed perfectly.
	5:54pm TDK60: Thanks Fabio; time to say till againwhen.
	👻 5:54pm chresti: Thanks Fabio!
	5:54pm mariano: Thank you, Fabio and Crew, bye all.
	5:54pm Morgan: thank you Fabio
	5:54pm wfmu listener phillip: a broken heart cant be mended I've had one since my parents passed away💔💔💔💔😭
	5:54pm Handy Haversack: Woooo! Killer diller! Great show today, Fabio. Thanks as always. And to Bean Bag Bones Matt, too. Great to be here with youse all, the apotheosis of failure, the strength that passeth understanding. Be well, Failsafes.
	5:55pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Fabio
	👻 5:55pm Bas NL: Thanks for the sounds Fabio! Great show!
	5:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...just looking over some JulianCope stuff - as I will do. Learned about Ayers later - but seems a sort of precursor...
	5:55pm Anita: And Al Green thanks Fabio
	5:55pm Miss G: Thanks to Fabio for a del. . .iciious show, thanks much Matt, thanks to all.
	5:55pm tim from champaign (now washington): Fabio's show is almost done, he's lit some candles and poured a little Riunite on Ice for he and Mrs Fabio. Thanks Fabio!
	5:56pm Morgan: you all landed that plane like a pro
	5:56pm David in London: Another groovesome show tonight Fabio, thankee. Later you reprobates.
	5:56pm Carmichael: Thanks Fab! 🤟
	5:57pm spodiodi: thanks, Fabio! thanks, Skeleton Crew! see you all
	5:57pm Morgan: tim thats nice
	5:58pm slugluv1313: fantastic show, Fabio -- thanks so much!
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: TY As Ever Fabio !
	5:58pm HyperDose: Worth the wait for that grand finale. Thanks Fabio. We made it guys!
	5:59pm bLeubomberune: Valentines Day this song is preparing for a big let down on 14 February
	5:59pm bLeubomberune: Au revoir all. Stay stay & healthy
	5:59pm Smog on the Tyne: Thanks again for another awesome show Fabio.
	5:59pm manana: great set closer there
	6:00pm dale: you have to use valves from a pig's heart. that's how.

Listener comments!
	3:01pm Handy Haversack: Fabio and the Failsafes! Greetings and future failures to all.
	3:01pm Carmichael: Hi Ho!
	👻 3:01pm chresti: Hi Giantland!
	3:01pm Baja Joe: Hidey ho!
	3:01pm HyperDose: Salutations fellow failures. Handy! What's on tap, friend?
	3:02pm βrian: I won't open the door until that giant man has fallen.
	3:02pm David in London: stumbles into the Lounge of Failure, knocking over a potted palm and spilling a glass of Cinzano Bianco down a lady’s dress Evening groovers! Howdy Fabio!
	3:03pm Handy Haversack: There's an actual cement mixer outside our bldg., and the driver is just leaning on his horn to somehow point out that traffic should move again. Secret weapon. Holy crap, the failure of everything. Hey, HyperDose. That's an excellent question. I might have to juice some limes to get away from this noise.
	👻 3:03pm Bas NL: It's the strengthening time again! Hi Fabio! Party people!
	3:03pm SeanG: hey Fabs and all
	3:03pm winston legthigh: failure finally gets the recognition it rightly deserves. greetings fabio, fabulous failures!
	3:04pm Stanley: Good he's gone. Let the esoteric sounds begin.
	👻 3:05pm Rev. Turnip Druid: MISTER Cherry.
	3:06pm Handy Haversack: Hmmm. Cement mixer left at the same time ...
	3:06pm Stanley: Om ah hung benza guru pema siddhi hung
	3:07pm βrian: @Handy: Time to write some Honku.
	3:08pm steveo: looooove this don cherry; hi, Fabio ust back from the "grocery store" least crowded i've seen it in a long time fun fact, i know a guy who wrote a (the?) "Honku" book and worked on the website
	3:09pm zopa: om ah hung hri ma ha ri ni sa ra tsa hri ya tsitta hring hring dza
	3:09pm manana: cherry-picking of the highest order unfolding..
	3:10pm Stanley: Was just thinking this should bring zopa to the surface. Hi zopa
	3:10pm βrian: @steveo: I participated in an analogous Harmoniku initiative. A harmonica in the wrong hands is a terrible thing.
	3:10pm zopa: hi stanley
	3:11pm βrian: Harmoniku autumnal quiet then shrieking harmonica slashing like a knife
	3:12pm Mark Kingsley: This isn't the Horizon records version of Chenrezig. It sounds like the version which was on Italian television.
	3:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...should be called Discordias...
	3:13pm Smog on the Tyne: Greetings Fabio and all fellow followers of failure. Looking forward to the usual eclectic mix to brighten the mood and lift the murk.
	👻 3:15pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Fabio and all. I believe the Telefunken handbook defines stereo as bimodal failure.
	3:15pm Smog on the Tyne: @David that was clumsy of you, I take off my dress before I start necking the vinos ;-)
	3:16pm steveo: even worse is the wrong lips, βrian (let me be clear that I'm NOT referring to don cherry or the current selection, which is also sublime)
	3:16pm David in London: How do Smoggy Tynester! I had a Leonard Rossiter moment.
	3:17pm tim from champaign (now washington): Fabio! Peoples!
	3:20pm Failer: Soundtrack to the birth of a black hole?
	3:20pm Smog on the Tyne: @David, hello mate, ha ha, oh it happens to us all 🤪
	3:21pm manana: like walking down the coolest trail, these sounds
	3:22pm Failer: or in the woods at night?
	3:23pm Failer: or in a terrence malick movie?
	3:23pm manana: all of the above and more
	3:24pm Morgan: safari thru failure
	3:26pm YETI BOB: I tried to make myself a grilled cheese sandwich. But I was so hungry I didn't wait long enough for the cheese to melt. Now I'm eating it anyway. Failure!
	3:26pm HyperDose: I turned on my vacuum and it didn't make it better. Anyone got any other ideas?
	3:26pm Lane: No, that's strength!
	3:27pm wfmu listener phillip: ahhhh😊😊😊 my Thursday is now complete with @FABIO 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😞
	3:28pm Smog on the Tyne: Magical stuff tonight, wild and wonderful jazz that flickers back on parts of your brain you thought had switched out the lights for good.
	👻 3:29pm Rev. Turnip Druid: a bassline you can live in.
	3:30pm wfmu listener phillip: I count the hours to the start of this show. and @fabios comforting voice.
	3:30pm Alvy Singer: My copy of Chi-Congo came with the rare Hieronymus Bosch poster.
	3:31pm wfmu listener phillip: I guess I'm the only one here who finds @fabios voice comforting calming to hear😁😁😁
	3:32pm Carmichael: My luncheon today consists of last night's rather greasy pizza, along with a refreshing diet beverage.
	3:32pm tim from champaign (now washington): SO I'vehad Chi-Congo for about 20 years. Just now the title hit me. My brain don'r work no gud sumtine.
	3:34pm tim from champaign (now washington): What are 'Pinky Violence' movies?
	3:35pm steveo: The Soul Fantastics. That's what that song app says is doin the ain't no sunshine
	3:35pm wfmu listener phillip: SPEAK! MAN!!
	3:35pm WM: Thanks for playing AEC. I was lucky to hear them live a few times. Please play more music from all the the members of the band.
	3:36pm wfmu listener phillip: that's better😊
	👻 3:37pm Rev. Turnip Druid: crap shoot. messy business.
	👻 3:37pm Bas NL: Yes we do!
	3:37pm steveo: and harder than shooting carp in a barrel
	3:38pm Zetti: Hanzo is insane, luv those films.
	👻 3:39pm Niall: I just heard “Hanzo: The Razor.” That’s not a film one hears about often, nor forgets easily.
	3:39pm wfmu listener phillip: the cataract in my left eye is getting worse. eye doctor says too much watching on my smartphone
	3:39pm Listener Howard & the Cats: @Tim - Japanese exploitation movies, largely from the '70s. Often featuring delinquent school girls & gangs. And usually great soundtracks.
	3:39pm Morgan: strength through showmanship
	3:40pm Morgan: aw nuts
	👻 3:40pm Niall: Tim from… there’s even a DVD boxed set, “The Pinky Violence Collection.” Ummm… specialists only, I suppose?
	👻 3:40pm chresti: Nutty in the hotbox, that's all we need to know.
	3:40pm Smog on the Tyne: Like, what issues is Fabio talking about? I didn't even notice! 🤣
	3:41pm Davefrom Brooklyn: Fabio thanks for all the music.
	3:41pm tim from champaign (now washington): @Listener Howard. Thanks for the explanation! I don't know if I've seen any but I have definitely seen 90s/00s throwbacks to those.
	3:41pm wfmu listener phillip: I swear if I could I'd donate my. COVID19 vaccine shot to fabio so he could come to the studio.
	3:41pm mariano: Heya Fabio, Crew, radio chums.
	3:42pm steveo: Fabio, thanks for doing your show. I know it's tough but it just sounds like regular from here and regular is good.
	3:42pm Zetti: Hanzo the Razor 2 The Snare has a great soundtrack.
	3:45pm Listener Howard & the Cats: @Tim - Tarantino has def included homages to some. "Female Yakuza Tale", "Sex & Fury", the "Girl Boss / Sukeban Buruusu" series, and the " Female Prisoner #701" series are maybe the best known/easiest to find? They're lots of fun!
	3:46pm Handy Haversack: For consumption cold, Carmichael?
	3:48pm Miss G: I didn't hear who this is, but the music has a sense of dread commensurate with the wiring issues of the Hotbox in this full moon
	3:49pm tim from champaign (now washington): @Miss G - I'm guessing it's La Tene related.
	3:50pm Zetti: I should add a warning. The Hazo series of films may be offensive to some. This is extremely harsh exploitation.
	3:50pm Morgan: @msG Is it one of those really big full moons
	3:52pm Miss G: @Morgan if you mean visually, last night I couldn't see as it was snowing. It is a "big deal" if you follow astrology at all.
	3:54pm Chris from DC: Googles David Maranha frantically
	3:55pm Miss G: Tim from Champaign - La Tène and Maranha on same label, is that it?
	3:55pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Mariano, steveo.
	3:56pm steveo: ydnaH elloH
	3:56pm Carmichael: @Handy, I brought it up to room temperature. And no anchovies, sadly.
	3:58pm Listener Howard & the Cats: That sorta reminded me of the music from LORDS OF SALEM.
	3:59pm tim from champaign (now washington): @Miss G - upon actually doing some internet machine research, it looks like LaTene and David Maranha are unrelated. I was making a guess based on the mesmerizing plodding drone sounds both share.
	4:01pm tim from champaign (now washington): @Miss G - A-ha! I see the connection you made now! Very cool. Please don't listen to me in the future :)
	👻 4:03pm chresti: Whatever is happening in the hotbox, the sounds are good over here. Will continue listening and commenting from our respective nutty hotboxes
	4:03pm Miss G: @Tim oh, no, I'm so happy you spoke up because I'm going to check out La Tène and their 2018 <hurdy-gurdy/harmonium/percussions trio welcomes two bagpipes (cabrettes and 23” to be exact), and a combo of string instruments (12-string guitar and electric bass).> wow!
	4:06pm Lixiviated Life: hello friend
	4:06pm PaulRobeson1920: Goood afternoon Ya’ll
	4:07pm Failer: Cloris was great--she was beautiful and had a kind of vulnerability about her
	4:07pm tim from champaign (now washington): @Miss G - Cool! I first heard La Tene on Fabio and Bryce's show. If you liked David Maranha you will absolutely dig La Tene.
	👻 4:07pm Niall: Kiss me deadly. The audio from that movie's ending still haunts me
	4:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: She was so talented & funny & kind. (Seemingly.)
	4:08pm Morgan: i only know cloris’ comedy roles. im a philistine
	4:08pm Failer: He's a horny kid
	4:09pm Morgan: wow good review, will see
	4:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: But Morgan - who was better than her @ it?
	4:09pm tim from champaign (now washington): I remember that scene now. Fabio's not kidding.
	4:12pm tim from champaign (now washington): I just requested Kiss Me Deadly and Last Picture Show from my local library.
	4:12pm WM: Bogdonivich made two films before LPS - Targets and (uncredited) Voyage to the Planet of Prehistoric Women. (I don’t think even Cloris Leachman could have done much with that one.)
	4:13pm Lixiviated Life: The scene youtu.be...
	4:13pm northguineahills: I saw Bertolucci's "1900" (1975) (director's cut), 5.5 hours (took two weekends to finish). Couldn't find an Italian version (found it on Hulu), so, the English dub was clumsy. Basically, the story of socialism vs fascism, landowners vs peasants, from the late 19th c to the end of wwii. Had the most adolescent male frontal nudity since I saw Makevejev's "Sweet Movie" (also 1975)
	4:14pm Morgan: @rabbit sure. its stunning too when you only know an actors comedies then discover they have real range
	4:14pm Failer: 94--a good age, a nice long life. Bon voyage, Cloris!
	4:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: She had a barrowful of Awards I gather...
	4:19pm mariano: Handy, what's shakin'!
	4:20pm spodiodi: hey Fabio! hey everyone!
	4:21pm David in London: Back in the room. What’s shaking groovers?
	4:21pm David in London: Mariano, Spod, yo!
	4:22pm HyperDose: Spodiodi and David, you're just in time. We're all about to start playing our commemorative WFMU tuning forks!
	4:23pm David in London: NGH. Ah, Sweet Movie! The best wee-ing this side of the dinner table.
	4:23pm Handy Haversack: The cocktails, Mariano, in 3 ... 2 ... 1 ... Hey, spodi!
	4:24pm spodiodi: yo David, Handy! Hyper, thanks -- mines burried in a plate of spaghetti. i'll warsh it off
	4:24pm βrian: Well, my workplace just had to be evacuated due to a bomb threat. All clear now, but oy.
	4:26pm ChukAmok: @βrian WTF?! That's crazy!
	4:26pm ChukAmok: Troubling times indeed...
	👻 4:27pm chresti: Nice steal, spodi!\\//
	4:27pm βrian: A Seven-Eleven across the street was said to be the target.
	4:27pm slugluv1313: greetings, Fabio and Skeleton Crew and Failure Family! been listening since i got in awhile ago, have not had the chance to say HELLO! until now -- REALLY enjoying the music/energy (been a seriously stupid stressful day)
	4:29pm tim from champaign (now washington): That's terrible, Brian. I'm glad to hear it was a hoax.
	4:29pm ChukAmok: No doubt the natural result of a bad taquito.
	4:30pm βrian: The more imminent threat is State republicans repealing the Governor's mask mandate.
	4:30pm WM: @Tim from Champaign: The novel LPS by Larry McMurtry is better than the film by Bogdanovich, LPS was B's best movie precisely because it was based on a good novel.
	4:31pm slugluv1313: @ Brian -- holy crap! glad you are okay, but still -- WTF!!!
	4:31pm Failer: I love when my office has to be evacuated...
	4:31pm Krys O: I also loved Cloris Leachman in Lovers and Other Strangers.
	👻 4:31pm chresti: Wow, βrian.
	4:31pm ChukAmok: Ugh. And then all the taquito breath will be free to mingle with the regular, fresh air. Hail to the mask!
	4:31pm Handy Haversack: Oof, βrian, what a thing.
	4:32pm Failer: Evacuation is good
	4:32pm ChukAmok: At least you live in a state where there is a mask mandate.
	4:32pm Failer: if you know what I mean
	4:32pm ChukAmok: There was one here, but people either ignored it or sued to get out of it.
	4:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I am full of Liberal guilt for ignoring the Big Gulp rage lo these decades...
	4:33pm Morgan: ah what i wouldn’t give for a good old fashioned bomb threat
	4:34pm northguineahills: ok, reality is getting strange, βrian. 7-11? The last time I was evacuated from a bomb threat was on a BSA trip to the UK from an IRA bomb threat at a tube station. (that was '93)
	4:35pm βrian: @Morgan: I'm sure Handy could help you out. He's quite the mixologist, I hear.
	👻 4:35pm Ken From Hyde Park: For the first month or so, my own stinkbreath under the mask was terrible. It doesn't bother me anymore. Olfactory failure, I guess.
	4:36pm βrian: Latest update: At least two local 7-elevens were targeted.
	4:36pm Morgan: lol really i hope you’re ok brian
	4:37pm Handy Haversack: I have only found two masks that reliably don't cause my glasses to fog. Yeesh, βrian! Save the Slurpee machines! We can pour booze in them and send to Mariano in New Orleans!
	4:38pm Failer: Hey guys, I was wondering, are there any cocktails that include or feature ketchup or mustard. I know you all would prob. know the answer
	4:39pm Handy Haversack: Also, hi, slugluv! Sorry about your day. I was thinking mine had been sort of stupid, too, but βrian is putting it all in perspective for me.
	4:39pm Failer: or, pickle juice
	4:40pm Failer: Actually, I think cocktails with ketchup, mustard, or pickle juice would be total failures
	4:41pm mariano: Paper Moon is an absolute joy. Madeline Kahn's character, Trixie Delight, is one of her best creations.
	4:41pm Failer: Small Axe!!! Keeps reverberating in my mind
	4:41pm slugluv1313: hiya Handy! thanks! and yes, exactly -- all sorts of minor crap that ends up wasting a lot of time & energy -- but no bomb threats! and agreed! send those liquored up slurpee machines to mariano!
	4:41pm Miss G: In "Lover's Rock" the cinematography blew my mind! (Small Axe) so gorgeous
	4:42pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, we're in four out of five so far on Small Axe. All excellent so far.
	4:43pm slugluv1313: hiya mariano! yes, Paper Moon -- another i have not seen in ages (may have seen it when i was in college, when NYC still had theaters that screened "older" movies)
	4:43pm mariano: βrian: Just catching up on posts, been busy with other stuff. Sorry to hear about that, glad you're OK.
	4:43pm Handy Haversack: @Failer: Hot dogdka. Though which condiment to use as a garnish is a pretty controversial topic.
	4:43pm Miss G: And "Silly Games" is a funny earworm to have (was watching that scene as each of my two young neighbors had a loud late party, so that was cute [I guess])
	4:44pm chris_in_space: I always heed your film recos, @Fabio; most recently with the Lebowitz "Pretend It's a City" series.
	4:44pm Failer: @ Handy: LOL
	4:44pm tw2sheds: FYI ketchup and mustard can go with anything, but not necessarily together. Or in beer.
	4:44pm Krys O: Recently re watched What's Up Doc? for Madeline. A goddess, she was
	4:45pm tim from champaign (now washington): The intro to Magic Carpet Ride fools me every time I hear it thinking that I'm in for a great jam but then it turns into Steppenwolf.
	4:45pm Failer: Speaking of hot dogs, I've always thought of veggie dogs as basically being like nitrite-flavored tofu
	4:45pm coelacanth∅: that was steppenwolf. what's egnekn (etc)?
	4:45pm northguineahills: @Ken: If I eat garlic, I need to wash that mask before the next time I wear it...
	4:45pm David in London: “What am I? A wabbit?” Classic Madeline Kahn.
	4:46pm WM: I think the career of Bogdanovich proves exactly the opposite of the auteur theory - the idea that the director is the sole author of a film and can transform junk into jewels through the magic of directorial style. When he had a good story (LPS) he made a good film and when he was left on his own he just rehashed scenes from the extensive list of films he had viewed.
	4:46pm Davefrom Brooklyn: The Pusher Man, aka,Bill "The Jabber"gates!
	4:46pm slugluv1313: @ßrian -- oh geez -- any "logic" behind targeting 7-11 stores?!? (what state are you in?)
	4:46pm egould310: God damn
	4:47pm slugluv1313: GEN KEN!!! <3 <3 <3
	4:47pm mariano: Hey slugluv! David: Haha! Or that scene shot from behind the closed door where she tells the hotel front-desk guy when he's dropped his trousers "My, ain't you a show dog?"
	4:47pm Davefrom Brooklyn: Goshdarn!
	4:47pm slugluv1313: meditations indeed :)
	4:47pm coelacanth∅: tim you don't like the magic carpet ride jam? (i like it)
	4:47pm steveo: my mind enjoys this gutter
	4:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Don't walk around with a head full of Cinema like I do Musics - but have often thot even great Directors too often lack - yerknow - the Writer...
	4:47pm HyperDose: Soothing
	4:48pm Failer: I gotta say, I think Scorcese is amazing in all his film endeavors but he too needs a good script; and when he gets a good script, like Taxi, look what he can do!
	4:48pm David in London: Peter Biskin goes in pretty hard on Bogdanovich in Easy Riders, Raging Bulls as I remember. And, raw talent aside, massive amount of egomania and coke weren’t a good recipe for steady, creative highs. See also Friedkin, P.
	4:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Directing @ best is a Benevolent Dictatorship & all this... Myopia can result.
	4:49pm Handy Haversack: You couldn't be more wrong, David! It's working fine for me! You'll see! You'll ALL see! I'M GOING TO BE A STAR!
	4:49pm Failer: One of the most impressive things to me about Steve McQueen is that he seems to be able to write great scripts as well as having amazing directorial skills
	4:50pm Rich in Washington: This is wonderful. It brings to mind Terry Riley's You're No Good.
	4:50pm Failer: Maybe a kind of test for great directors is how far can they go with a great script?
	4:50pm Davefrom Brooklyn: A lot.
	4:50pm tim from champaign (now washington): Klassic Rock Meditations is really hard to find on the internet machine.Fabio could you give some details about it on the next mic break?
	4:51pm tim from champaign (now washington): @Rich in Washington - totally!
	4:51pm Smog on the Tyne: Yikes!
	4:52pm βrian: I'm working from home, but I do have colleagues who were displaced. But as I said, the all-clear was given.
	4:52pm David in London: I make an exception in your case, Handy. Rev Rabbit, I think it’s a Von Stroheim inspired myth that too many people who make films still buy into, the filmic equivalent of joining the 27 Club in rock and roll. It doesn’t have to be that way, but it often is. I saw it writ large with my cohort at film school.
	4:53pm mariano: Handy: Especially if you adopt a stage name like Lionel Twain.
	4:54pm βrian: @slugluv1313: Madison, WI.
	4:54pm Handy Haversack: Well, that worked on me. Consider me meditated! Mariano, probably on a tenner a day, and I know what for!
	4:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...ambition perhaps more accessible than inspiration...
	4:55pm Rich in Washington: @tim from champaign (now washington): I am similarly looking and coming up with bupkis
	4:56pm David in London: Lionel was my dad’s middle name. I always thought it was rather ludicrous. Apologies to any Lionels present here.
	4:56pm steveo: many bupkis here as welll
	4:56pm Stanley: Catch Lionel hahaha
	👻 4:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: Who's taking on the PushER / Party Girls remix?
	4:57pm Mister Dobalina: CinePhobe, RIP.
	4:58pm Handy Haversack: DEEP in the bupkis bag. Well, Ken, god damn!
	4:58pm David in London: Is Cinephobe definitely defunct now then? Bugger.
	4:59pm tim from champaign (now washington): @Rich - the Gen Ken kut also reminded me of Christian Marclay's More Encores.
	4:59pm PaulRobeson1920: Inspiration, move me brightly...
	5:00pm nic: love her!!!
	5:00pm tim from champaign (now washington): There's probably some sort of Gen Ken/Fabio payola going on. Which way the payola is flowing, I do not know.
	5:00pm Davefrom Brooklyn: Mariano,Lionel Twain initiated a hearty guffaw!
	5:01pm wfmu listener phillip: HOLY KATZ! its 5pm already. that was a fast 2 hours
	5:03pm wfmu listener phillip: hey that "circle attractor part 1" was a great track is it available on itunes
	5:03pm steveo: you know I've smoked a lot of pills
	5:05pm mariano: Handy: Apparently that quip and the Uncle Monty seduction scene come from Bruce Robinson's experience with Zeffirelli during the filming of Romeo and Juliet. Now I must hear "What Is a Youth?", one of my favorite 60s film songs along with "Windmills of Your Mind." Davefrom BK: Always glad to be the source of yuks. It's a dangerous thing though to get Handy, David, and me started on the Withnail quotes, we're liable to wind up in the back of the van.
	5:09pm Miss G: Now you guys have made me play a clip on my HD "throw yourself into the road darling, you haven't got a chance" (with Hiss Tracts behind it)
	5:10pm Handy Haversack: Vim under the sink. And both bars on. Miss G, these aren't accidents!
	5:11pm northguineahills: First Brian Eno album I got.....
	5:12pm TDK60: Hola Fabio. A basically failed day here at the cassette castle.
	5:13pm mariano: Scrubbers! [David, a little help with the lingo, never quite knew the precise meaning]
	5:15pm David in London: You’re doing fine Mariano. But an expert on bulls you are not.
	5:15pm Handy Haversack: \\ //, TDK60. Just flip it over and try the other side.
	5:17pm Handy Haversack: tim, the obscure payola seems more and more likely. They're big fans. For many reasons. Mmmmmm-hmmmmm.
	5:18pm ledzeppelinsucks: maybe that author is the same girl that names chinese restaurants
	5:19pm ChukAmok: @TDK Could be worse. Could be an interminable TDK120.
	5:20pm wizard frog: delightful
	5:20pm TDK60: Ha Handy.
	5:21pm ledzeppelinsucks: I have been doing IT project at Game Stop stores. Those fucking places are patronized by addicts and people in crisis. People constantly trying to sell games and many times a day women escort young men into the store to sell their console. It's the culmination of an ultimatim. Game addicts play 22 hours a day. That addiction is high overhead. An internet connection, couch, electricity and a structure to host those things is required. And there has to be an enabler paying for it.
	5:21pm Miss G: L one of the aforementioned neighbors just stormed out and slammed the door. Don't blame me, it's Fabio, hangover kid!
	👻 5:22pm chresti: Hi TDK60 \\ //
	5:22pm WM: Fabio: I think the phenomenon you are referring to is called semantic satiation - when a word is repeated so often it loses its meaning and becomes just a sound.
	5:23pm wfmu listener phillip: just 37 min left in the show boy that went fast. I gulped down my dinner so fast I never tasted it
	5:24pm TDK60: Hi Chresti. \\ //
	5:27pm mariano: ledzepsucks: I play one or two games a year, I'm a fan of the non-linear open-world ones where you can wander around and do whatever you like. They can be really addictive, and when I play, I tend to binge like I do with a series I'm hooked on. Thankfully though, there are months if not a year between them. My ADHD works as a great failsafe in that regard (I'm diagnosed, not just saying I have it as some folks do).
	👻 5:28pm Rev. Turnip Druid: meetings make miss everything.
	5:31pm Carmichael: No shit, RTD. Just got off a Skype call where no one could hear each other. We're in the middle of a massive storm that knocked out power to 100,000 people.
	5:31pm dale: mariano - i think most fmu listeners are as such afflicted. it's a sign of creativity.
	5:32pm Davefrom Brooklyn: I remember how, as a kid, monopoly and Risk were...is the right word addictive? Risk marathons lasted days.
	5:33pm Smog on the Tyne: I love this Eugene Marcelissen material, yet another StF discovery, thank you Fabio.
	5:35pm spodiodi: agree w dale (if not most, many)
	5:36pm βrian: Can we collectively call ourselves STFUnited?
	5:36pm dale: there was a game my neighbors had called blitkrieg - it was a wwii nai theater strategy game. i never 'got' it and it took days to play. really stupid when battleship could be done in a half hour.
	👻 5:36pm chresti: Tomorrow never knows, I thought I could hear..
	5:36pm northguineahills: @Dave: when I was 13, I played Risk w/ my friends that last all summer vacation (no one won).
	5:37pm dale: nazi theater...
	5:37pm spodiodi: has a nice ring, βrian. i'll allow it 👍
	5:37pm northguineahills: ,,,lasted all summer...
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm just streaming FMU all the damn time...
	5:39pm Krys O: TCM has a podcast series of conversations with Bogdanovich and I had absolutely zero interest in hearing it. OTOH, I was mesmerized by their 14 part series on Women Make Film featuring Mark Cousins' documentary of the same name. Riveting.
	5:39pm mariano: dale: I'll take it. DavefromBK: Oh yeah, many an intense Risk session when I was younger. Up till 4 a.m., everyone chain smoking, lifelong friends hating each other and trying to stab each other in the back with the alliances. Good times. I forget where I read this, but in every picture of Putin, his expression is that of your best friend as they're about to wipe you off the map in Risk.
	5:40pm northguineahills: (it gets to the point where, you scream, "will someone please win!")
	5:40pm Handy Haversack: Risk and Monopoly ... wow in my mind could not be more different! Risk is so elegant in its mechanics. Monopoly is pure chance! ngh, we usually call Risk with "balance of power" once there are only two players left. I have a 1957 edition (I think first ed.?) with wooden pieces!
	5:40pm mariano: Case in point: bit.ly...
	5:42pm Miss G: @Kry O thank you for mentioning that Mark Cousins docu series because I only knew his first one. We loved it and would often imitate his soothing Scottish hushed voice doing a narration. . .
	5:43pm dale: i thought this was annie haslam. whoopsie.
	5:43pm tim from champaign (now washington): Now we're talking! Nico is so great!
	5:43pm TDK60: Always feel a winter vibe from this Nico cut.
	5:43pm tim from champaign (now washington): @dale - I can hear that.
	5:43pm Miss G: Nico is a perfect voice to bring us back to so-called reality at this point in the show
	5:44pm northguineahills: @Handy: In my example, there were three players. After a while, it was just a war of attrition no one could possible win unless someone got lucky.
	5:44pm mariano: Any of y'all ever play Steve Jackson's Illuminati game? Man we used to have fun playing that my freshman year of college. en.wikipedia.org...
	👻 5:44pm chresti: Risk was a favorite with the crowd I hung out with when I lived at home.
	5:44pm Anita: Love Nico
	5:45pm dale: i'd love to hear nico sing carpet of the sun - what a downer she'd make it!
	5:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Amazing damn track.
	5:45pm WM: Nico! Much thanks!
	5:48pm tim from champaign (now washington): Yes! Happy birthday Robert Wyatt.
	5:49pm WM: Wordsworth describing Newton: The marble index of a mind forever / Voyaging through strange seas of thought, alone.
	5:49pm Handy Haversack: Hot dogdka, that Nico cut! So great. And then Soft Machine! This is a set and a half!
	5:49pm Krys O: @Miss G: For WMF he had Tilda Swinton, Jane Fonda and others do the narration. Cousins appeared to do an intro with Alicia Malone before each episode. I too was enraptured by his voice.
	5:49pm wfmu listener phillip: Another Wonderful Show. T.Y. @Fabio & the skeleton crew
	5:50pm wfmu listener phillip: SAD ITS OVER😭😭😭
	5:50pm coelacanth∅: had a Kevin Ayers binge yesterday, glad to continue it
	5:50pm Krys O: Thanks, Fabio and everyone!
	5:50pm common: excellent show as always, fabio. hello all!
	5:51pm PaulRobeson1920: Gotta LoVe WFMU!
	5:52pm northguineahills: grazie, Fabio!
	5:53pm coelacanth∅: i always thought Ayers' voice didn't fit his appearance
	5:53pm dale: i liked that guitar chord slamming over all green - it was timed perfectly.
	5:54pm TDK60: Thanks Fabio; time to say till againwhen.
	👻 5:54pm chresti: Thanks Fabio!
	5:54pm mariano: Thank you, Fabio and Crew, bye all.
	5:54pm Morgan: thank you Fabio
	5:54pm wfmu listener phillip: a broken heart cant be mended I've had one since my parents passed away💔💔💔💔😭
	5:54pm Handy Haversack: Woooo! Killer diller! Great show today, Fabio. Thanks as always. And to Bean Bag Bones Matt, too. Great to be here with youse all, the apotheosis of failure, the strength that passeth understanding. Be well, Failsafes.
	5:55pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Fabio
	👻 5:55pm Bas NL: Thanks for the sounds Fabio! Great show!
	5:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...just looking over some JulianCope stuff - as I will do. Learned about Ayers later - but seems a sort of precursor...
	5:55pm Anita: And Al Green thanks Fabio
	5:55pm Miss G: Thanks to Fabio for a del. . .iciious show, thanks much Matt, thanks to all.
	5:55pm tim from champaign (now washington): Fabio's show is almost done, he's lit some candles and poured a little Riunite on Ice for he and Mrs Fabio. Thanks Fabio!
	5:56pm Morgan: you all landed that plane like a pro
	5:56pm David in London: Another groovesome show tonight Fabio, thankee. Later you reprobates.
	5:56pm Carmichael: Thanks Fab! 🤟
	5:57pm spodiodi: thanks, Fabio! thanks, Skeleton Crew! see you all
	5:57pm Morgan: tim thats nice
	5:58pm slugluv1313: fantastic show, Fabio -- thanks so much!
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: TY As Ever Fabio !
	5:58pm HyperDose: Worth the wait for that grand finale. Thanks Fabio. We made it guys!
	5:59pm bLeubomberune: Valentines Day this song is preparing for a big let down on 14 February
	5:59pm bLeubomberune: Au revoir all. Stay stay & healthy
	5:59pm Smog on the Tyne: Thanks again for another awesome show Fabio.
	5:59pm manana: great set closer there
	6:00pm dale: you have to use valves from a pig's heart. that's how.
