	9:12pm tak: at least you have pretty eyes NGH
	9:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: askinglot.com... : ' What is the precession cycle? The Earth's axis rotates (precesses) just as a spinning top does. The period of precession is about 26,000 years. Therefore, the North Celestial Pole will not always be point towards the same starfield. Precession is caused by the gravitational pull of the Sun and the Moon on the Earth. Thereof, how does precession affect Earth? The precession is how much the earth wobbles on its axis. The earth wobbles like a top that is slowing down. The combination of the precession with whether the earth is nearer or farther from the sun can affect the severity of the seasons in one hemisphere compared to the other. Likewise, what happens every 26000 years? Precession of Earth's rotational axis takes approximately 26,000 years to make one complete revolution. Through each 26,000-year cycle, the direction in the sky to which the Earth's axis points goes around a big circle. In other words, precession changes the “North Star” as seen from Earth. Keeping this in consideration, what is precession and nutation? Astronomical nutation is a phenomenon which causes the orientation of the axis of rotation of a spinning astronomical object to vary over time. An example of precession and nutation is the variation over time of the orientation of the axis of rotation of the Earth. How do you find the period of precession? This allows us to find the period of precession. I=12mr2=12(0.30kg)(0.05m)2=3.75×10−4kg·m2. 20.0rev/s=20.0(2π)rad/s=125.66rad/s. ' ...This is why the position of the Signs used by most Astrologers is Tropical - meaning by the Tropics & the Seasons - the Equinoxes & Solstices - no longer match the actual Constellations in the sky - whereas the Sidereal Zodiac - meaning 'By the Stars' - generally referred to by the Astronomers & Scientists does... This is also the 'cause' or indicator of the changing of Astrological Ages - technically, 'Platonic Months' : which Constellation the beginning of the Zodiac with 0° of ♈︎Aries, the First Sign @ the Vernal Equinox actually falls in. Such as the 'Age of ♒︎Aquarius'...
	9:15pm chresti: ngh, that's why I wear dark glasses.
	9:15pm northguineahills: I once had a website that was monochrome light silver on platinum. I got a lot of complaints that no one could read it.
	9:18pm Gurldoggie: Hi Jim, hi everyone. Only on WFMU do people complain that they can’t read the radio!
	9:18pm G: Aesthetics are great, but functionality also has to be there.
	9:19pm Gurldoggie: I like the colors BTW. And the sounds. Tastes pretty good too if you ask me.
	🌮 9:19pm Franco Twinkie: Hi, my name is Larry and I'm a Scorpio.
	9:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yellow on black is good contrast from my position in the cosmos ...& good aesthetics.
	9:21pm TDK60: hermano Twinkie, frows to thee.
	9:21pm chresti: Who's complaining?
	9:21pm G: @"Larry": Also tell the other members how long since you quit drinking.
	9:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: How many ♏︎Scorpios does it take to screw in a lightbulb ? ...None. We'd rather sit in the dark...
	9:22pm chresti: Ha Gurldoggie!
	9:22pm Gurldoggie: Hi Larry. We accept you. One of us.
	🌮 9:22pm Franco Twinkie: Frank Bez is going to astral project to your house and stab you with a safety pin for revealing his digs.
	9:27pm chresti: my first time with acrylics was with grey and safety yellow.
	9:28pm northguineahills: the background was gray on my end. I just changed the html so the text is now in black.
	9:29pm chresti: If you refresh it changes to black background.
	9:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Oh ! FrankBez did those shots of Andy & Nico as Batman & Robin ...maybe he's all secret like the Batcave...
	9:30pm northguineahills: @chresti: Then I'd have to change the text back to yellow.
	9:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...would never pull 'Cinnamon Girl' out of this, but it's great...
	9:33pm Destroit: Lol oh you two….
	9:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Everybody Knows FrankBez Is Nowhere...
	9:37pm TDK60: Maybe it's meant as background while you improvise Cinnamon vocals over?
	9:40pm TDK60: Maybe it's meant for a slow precession around the sparkling frow?
	9:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...course this is 'Cinammon' with one 'N' & two 'M's...
	🌮 9:40pm Franco Twinkie: I can barley discern the melody buried under layers of cotton candy.
	9:40pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): hi, Jim the Poet and folx, this is pretty
	9:41pm Jim the Poet: I don't know how to spell Cinnamon
	9:41pm Gurldoggie: This must be the part where the drummer relaxes and waits between shows.
	9:41pm Jim the Poet: I do know how to spell Cinnabon
	9:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Who does.
	🌮 9:42pm Franco Twinkie: Hi Baba! Did you bring the special candles and a tasseled pillow?
	9:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...oh they were just tuning up...
	🌮 9:44pm Franco Twinkie: Okay, I'm getting out of the hot tub. Who wants ice cream?
	9:44pm northguineahills: I imagine this Tuluum is in reference to the pre-Mayan site in Mexico...
	9:46pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Pranko! meeee! whatcha got!?!
	9:47pm TDK60: Baba B., present, aye.
	9:47pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): I was lured into a place that had violet ice cream on the menu, but when I asked, they had none :-(
	🌮 9:48pm Franco Twinkie: What did you get instead?
	9:49pm Destroit: Lol oh you two…
	9:50pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): I got a triple sampler of sticky rice + mango, Vietnamese rocky road and Sakura (cherry blossom) crunch, mmm
	9:51pm northguineahills: that's a very sad story Mx Baba Bee. Now I want lavender ice cream.....
	9:51pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): hey, TDK60kins!
	9:51pm chresti: Aye Mx Baba Beekins!
	9:51pm Destroit: Holy crap Mx BBkins that sounds incredible
	🌮 9:52pm Franco Twinkie: Okay, sounds like you went for the gold.
	9:52pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Destroit: it was rather delicious, and not overly sweet!
	9:52pm chresti: Hi Destroit!
	9:53pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): chrestikins, let's go get ice cream soon! Beat the heat! I wish this would be the music playing as it all melted down our arms and chins
	🌮 9:54pm Franco Twinkie: It's hair wash night - I'll be back soon.
	9:54pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): ngh: mmmmmm, lavender ice creammmmmmm
	9:55pm StringOFperils: Two scoops of sadist ripple
	9:56pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): SOp: glass shards and pond scum?
	9:57pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): that's urban pond scum
	9:57pm StringOFperils: Truly mean
	🌮 9:57pm Franco Twinkie: I'll just have a dab of goat cheese on a Ritz cracker...and a hit on the crack pipe.
	9:57pm Destroit: Hi chresti! Really diggin the mellow mcfrowsubshowy Jim.
	9:59pm Kat in Chicago: oh hey it's another Jim the Poet fill-in, yay!
	🌮 9:59pm Will the Sound Guy: Hi Jim the Poet and all!!!
	10:00pm Jim the Poet: Hey DJ Kat!
	10:00pm ashestoashes: beautiful music all around and now nudging us slightly out of the parasympathetic.
	10:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...slow creepy music for fast horrifying times...
	10:00pm slugluv1313: Tuluum Shimmering 💚💜🖤🧡💙 greetings, Jim! Poets! Showfacers! been lurking, loving the sounds/vibes

	10:07pm slugluv1313: hi chresti! Mx. Baba Bee! those ice cream flavors sound like pure Heaven
	10:07pm Destroit: Slugluv always welcome. Cheers buddy!
	10:08pm Kat in Chicago: Yes I would like to taste all of those ice creams
	10:08pm rw: Hey Jim, what’s goin’ on?
	10:09pm Destroit: This show merging with Zoe’s…we all gonna be on another planet by 1am
	10:09pm headcleaner: A fill-in with Jim the Poet displeases me, he said, not a mote pledges paid, he asked quite staid: "But will they send my tote"? "This isn't NPR", she wrote
	10:09pm chresti: Hi Jim what's going on? You got a cool show going on that's what!
	10:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...fadng but staying tuned...
	10:09pm rw: Nice job with the Frow tonight. I couldn’t even tell! Hey everyone.
	10:09pm TDK60: Great first set; frowkeepers, aye?
	10:10pm Jim the Poet: Hey, guys. I am still thinking about the Eggo x Pop Tart I had this morning. Maybe they are better warmed up? www.poptarts.com...
	10:11pm slugluv1313: hi Destroit -- thank you! cheers right back atcha :)
	10:11pm chresti: Aye \\//
	10:12pm Gurldoggie: This is fantastic.
	10:12pm rw: Eggo Pop Tart, huh?
	10:12pm rw: I’d warm it.
	10:13pm Gurldoggie: Really weird and entertaining show Jim. It’s almost as if they let you play whatever the heck you want…
	10:13pm Kat in Chicago: hmm I don't know about that pop tart Jim
	10:13pm chresti: What element of eggo is in the pop tart?
	10:14pm rw: But mostly I think PopTarts taste better before you turn 9.
	10:14pm Kat in Chicago: I know about this playlist though, it rules
	10:15pm PaulRobeson1920: Hey Jim? What is up? It’s starting to rain here in Woodside
	10:15pm northguineahills: in my best brian wilson voice hold on the your Eggo!
	10:17pm Jim the Poet: I always get drawn in to the wacky new products. It's raining in Queens? Does that mean it skipped over me in Jersey City???
	10:17pm Destroit: Id eat the hell out of an eggo pop tart sight unseen. Gotta live baby!
	10:18pm Gurldoggie: Iggy Pop Tart?
	10:18pm chresti: Maybe inject it with cheese too
	10:18pm Destroit: That too. Fuck it
	10:18pm Kat in Chicago: I'd rather just pour some maple syrup on a waffle. Or some bread. Or a spoon.
	10:19pm Destroit: Yep. Do that too Kat. Anyone else? Anyone?
	10:20pm rw: Haha, leggo my Stooges
	10:20pm Destroit: waiting for literal shit sammich
	10:22pm chresti: Add paté to French it up!
	10:22pm rw: See what you started Mr. Poet?
	10:23pm northguineahills: I'll take one Gurldoggie!
	10:23pm Destroit: Mercury Rev no showed in Detroit tonight while opening for Brian Jonestown Massacre. Some friends seriously upset. Hope the Rev is OK
	10:25pm chresti: My dream room!
	10:25pm B R M: Fill-in Fever at WFMU.... catch it! (Great set!)
	10:26pm northguineahills: Well, good to hear Mercury Rev is touring again, nonetheless.
	10:26pm ryansterlingvirtue: Jim is more clay than clay and more frau than Jesse
	10:26pm Jim the Poet: Bummer about Mercury Rev
	10:27pm StringOFperils: Yes, Mercury Rev no-show = crushing disappointment
	10:27pm tak: !!!
	10:28pm Destroit: Rev also didnt make it to a couple Canadian shows for “non covid reasons” just before detroit. So who knows wtf is going on
	10:30pm Jim the Poet: I have to go to Detroit in August for a burial. Maybe I can get to a Tigers' game!
	10:32pm Destroit: Still much fun to be had here. Tigers should be a sleeper hit this year finally.
	10:33pm slugluv1313: raining here in Hoboken too -- but not in Jersey City?
	10:33pm Jim the Poet: The last time I watched them in Detroit Justin Verlander was the pitcher
	10:34pm Jim the Poet: It is raining in J.C. I forgot there's a big building in back now blocking the rain from the fire escape
	10:35pm tak: svarte greiner is a standard in sound
	🌮 10:35pm Franco Twinkie: I was mighty impressed with the brick streets around Tiger Stadium when I drove there in 1974. But I was more impressed with the Polish food across the street.
	10:36pm slugluv1313: this Svarte Greiner is devastating (in a GOOD way) -- must investigate more 🖤🖤🖤
	10:37pm TDK60: Was just looking; this Svarte G. bassist is in a a defunct brewery tank.
	10:38pm slugluv1313: @Jim -- ugh, yeah, i have seen that construction going on when i have walked by -- no more parking either?
	10:38pm chresti: Ah, thanks TDK60.
	10:39pm Jim the Poet: I don't think we have any parking. It's also going to be hard to load into Monty Hall I think
	10:39pm PaulRobeson1920: I clicked on that Poptart link @Jim the Poet… Ben Dover, who rated 1 star, writes “horrible… does not have a good taste. get rid of this flavor we want yummy fun flavors not disgusting bad idea flavors. tasted like nothing at first then had a bad after taste. get rid of it now pop tart company.” Thanks Jim thanks a lot
	10:40pm northguineahills: @TDK: well, it is a rather hopping piece.
	10:40pm TDK60: Sorry, not a tank but a cellar room.
	10:40pm Jim the Poet: Ben Dover makes some fine points, as usual. But bad-tasting pop tarts are kind of right up my alley.
	🌮 10:44pm Franco Twinkie: I have not had a Pop Tart since they were first introduced as a novelty food item back in the 1960's. But I seem to remember I ate so many while watching Felix the Cat, it could be another fifty five years before I crave another.
	10:45pm Jim the Poet: Sara A. is in THE HOUSE!!!!
	🌮 10:46pm Franco Twinkie: Sara, wherea?
	10:48pm slugluv1313: @Jim -- that sucks -- i hope that load in for Monty Hall isn't too difficult -- hell, i say, just plow through the ground floor of that dumb building (surely there is a back exit?) but that's just me 🤬🤬🤬
	10:49pm P-90: This Frowy McFrowface has been an excellent soundtrack for this evening. Cuz I’ve had that kind of evening…
	10:50pm Jim the Poet: The biggest load-in we had was always after the record fair, which I guess will be next year again!
	10:52pm slugluv1313: "Zen music for disturbed souls" -- i love it (from Svarte Greiner 's Bandcamp page) 🖤💜🖤💜🖤
	10:53pm tak: half of deaf center, his work is rich
	10:55pm Listener Robert: Say what you will about Pop Tarts (Kellogg), they blew away Post's knock-off, Toast'ems. In Toast'ems the filling was like painted on, and to make up for the relative lack of moist filling, they over-flavored them with flavor extracts. Then who was Toast-ettes, Nabisco's? Now you can get knock-offs from Dolgencorp, and while they're not Pop Tarts, Pop Tarts are not worth the amount extra you pay over the Dolgen knock-offs. It's like you can get 80-90% of the quality for 50% of the cost, why not?
	🌮 10:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Jim and poetry patrol!
	10:56pm TDK60: Listener Robert- I'd forgotten all that. And conflated all pop tarts into one phenom. My bad.
	10:58pm Listener Robert: Hey, I'm doing the equivalent by commenting here while listening to Austin Rich's show in Sheila's Jungle.
	10:59pm Jim the Poet: I kind of liked Toaster Strudel whoever made those. They came with frosting you could smear on from a tiny plastic dispenser. Which I would just end up sucking out directly into my face hole.
	11:01pm joe mulligan: Erik Knive Skodvin (Svarte Greiner) is a cool cat. Otto from Deaf Center as well. I saw them play as Deaf Center on a "school night" some time back, and it was the night before I knew I was going to get laid off at work. So after the show I asked if they wanted to get some belgian beers. a group of us went out and I said "F work!" and we threw some back until like 4ish am. The next day I was turfed up at work and they didn't lay me off that day!! I came so close to walking into my bosses office to beg for being let go so I could go home and sleep
	11:03pm Gurldoggie: I gotta say I like your “let the music do the talking” approach to announcing.
	11:04pm Irwin: Rah Ra!
	11:04pm patty: I miss Sprays Talk
	11:05pm patty: Sportsy
	11:05pm Jim the Poet: Hey Irwin!
	11:06pm Gurldoggie: All this excellent piano reminds me it’s Cecil Taylor’s birthday! Oh happy day!
	11:07pm Jim the Poet: Happy birthday, Mr. Taylor!
	11:07pm joe mulligan: fantastic show Jim the Poet
	11:07pm P-90: I never sucked Toaster Strudel frosting from the little plastic dispenser. Now I feel like I missed something.
	11:11pm Yes: JIM JAZZ. I DIG
	11:15pm Lolabelle Pancake: Please don't tell Courtney I'm listening to this "wigged-out" jazz!
	11:16pm sofa rex: i eat pie instead of pop tarts. strawb rubharb this week. Jim the Poet i love your fill in streak and bet you do too! happy poetry month! a short bit of fresh poem for yous- interruptions are the basis of conversation with heavy amounts of dispassionate fanaticism certain circuits aren't ready street knowledge decades of polish
	11:17pm Dorabelle Pancake: Lolabelle, Courtney would be mortified! And he'd feel betrayed.
	🌮 11:18pm Franco Twinkie: Lolabelle, has Courtney ever had a Pop Tart, or would he consider that 'foreign food'?
	11:21pm Lolabelle Pancake: Courtney likes the tart part, not the pop glop.
	🌮 11:23pm Franco Twinkie: Good to hear. He has a well developed palate.
	11:29pm maestroso: This whole Sun Ra set is brilliant.
	11:37pm Yes: i am enjoying
	11:41pm Irwin: Hayes Burnett and Samarai Celestial comprise one of the best rhythm sections Ra ever had. And no disrespect to Ronnie Boykins, Clifford Jarvis, Tommy Hunter, or the rest. Those two had so much punch.
	11:43pm Gurldoggie: Loved the extended Sun Ra set. A rare treat.
	11:47pm HyperDose: You're massaging my brain, Jim
	11:48pm Jim the Poet: It's like we're in a dome filled with cake frosting and fireflies
	11:49pm Yes: mmm
	11:52pm Bobby: All the recent extra Jim the Poet is good for me. Good for you.
	11:53pm Yes: thank you jim
	11:53pm HyperDose: Jim the Poet is an essential part of a balanced Freeform diet
	11:54pm Jim the Poet: Hey Thanks To You Guys! We'll see you sooner than we both expect!
	11:54pm Gurldoggie: Thanks for the journey Jim. Really enjoyed these last three hours.
	11:56pm rw: Thanks, Jim. Nice filling.
	11:57pm chresti: Thanks for the music show, Jim! Champion selection!
	11:57pm Jim the Poet: STAY TUNED FOR SARA A!
	11:58pm HyperDose: FINE, MAYBE WE WILL! ...thank you, Jim :)
	11:58pm Bobby: Definitely. We have questions
	12:00am slugluv1313: these past three hours have been wonderful -- thanks so much!

	9:09pm Yes: To the moon
	9:10pm PaulRobeson1920: Hi Hi Hi
	9:10pm chresti: there we go, tilting the screen darkened the background a bit, now clear as day.
	9:10pm lazy pierogi: lovely
	9:11pm northguineahills: Well, I'm going to change the color scheme on my end (having cataracts is less then ideal when trying to see)
	9:11pm Jim the Poet: I changed it to black! It's night-time!
	9:12pm chresti: I like the safety colors.
	9:12pm Destroit: Hi Jim and all assembled. Glad to be here and lovin the ambience
	9:12pm tak: at least you have pretty eyes NGH
	9:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: askinglot.com... : ' What is the precession cycle? The Earth's axis rotates (precesses) just as a spinning top does. The period of precession is about 26,000 years. Therefore, the North Celestial Pole will not always be point towards the same starfield. Precession is caused by the gravitational pull of the Sun and the Moon on the Earth. Thereof, how does precession affect Earth? The precession is how much the earth wobbles on its axis. The earth wobbles like a top that is slowing down. The combination of the precession with whether the earth is nearer or farther from the sun can affect the severity of the seasons in one hemisphere compared to the other. Likewise, what happens every 26000 years? Precession of Earth's rotational axis takes approximately 26,000 years to make one complete revolution. Through each 26,000-year cycle, the direction in the sky to which the Earth's axis points goes around a big circle. In other words, precession changes the “North Star” as seen from Earth. Keeping this in consideration, what is precession and nutation? Astronomical nutation is a phenomenon which causes the orientation of the axis of rotation of a spinning astronomical object to vary over time. An example of precession and nutation is the variation over time of the orientation of the axis of rotation of the Earth. How do you find the period of precession? This allows us to find the period of precession. I=12mr2=12(0.30kg)(0.05m)2=3.75×10−4kg·m2. 20.0rev/s=20.0(2π)rad/s=125.66rad/s. ' ...This is why the position of the Signs used by most Astrologers is Tropical - meaning by the Tropics & the Seasons - the Equinoxes & Solstices - no longer match the actual Constellations in the sky - whereas the Sidereal Zodiac - meaning 'By the Stars' - generally referred to by the Astronomers & Scientists does... This is also the 'cause' or indicator of the changing of Astrological Ages - technically, 'Platonic Months' : which Constellation the beginning of the Zodiac with 0° of ♈︎Aries, the First Sign @ the Vernal Equinox actually falls in. Such as the 'Age of ♒︎Aquarius'...
	9:15pm chresti: ngh, that's why I wear dark glasses.
	9:15pm northguineahills: I once had a website that was monochrome light silver on platinum. I got a lot of complaints that no one could read it.
	9:18pm Gurldoggie: Hi Jim, hi everyone. Only on WFMU do people complain that they can’t read the radio!
	9:18pm G: Aesthetics are great, but functionality also has to be there.
	9:19pm Gurldoggie: I like the colors BTW. And the sounds. Tastes pretty good too if you ask me.
	🌮 9:19pm Franco Twinkie: Hi, my name is Larry and I'm a Scorpio.
	9:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yellow on black is good contrast from my position in the cosmos ...& good aesthetics.
	9:21pm TDK60: hermano Twinkie, frows to thee.
	9:21pm chresti: Who's complaining?
	9:21pm G: @"Larry": Also tell the other members how long since you quit drinking.
	9:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: How many ♏︎Scorpios does it take to screw in a lightbulb ? ...None. We'd rather sit in the dark...
	9:22pm chresti: Ha Gurldoggie!
	9:22pm Gurldoggie: Hi Larry. We accept you. One of us.
	🌮 9:22pm Franco Twinkie: Frank Bez is going to astral project to your house and stab you with a safety pin for revealing his digs.
	9:27pm chresti: my first time with acrylics was with grey and safety yellow.
	9:28pm northguineahills: the background was gray on my end. I just changed the html so the text is now in black.
	9:29pm chresti: If you refresh it changes to black background.
	9:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Oh ! FrankBez did those shots of Andy & Nico as Batman & Robin ...maybe he's all secret like the Batcave...
	9:30pm northguineahills: @chresti: Then I'd have to change the text back to yellow.
	9:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...would never pull 'Cinnamon Girl' out of this, but it's great...
	9:33pm Destroit: Lol oh you two….
	9:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Everybody Knows FrankBez Is Nowhere...
	9:37pm TDK60: Maybe it's meant as background while you improvise Cinnamon vocals over?
	9:40pm TDK60: Maybe it's meant for a slow precession around the sparkling frow?
	9:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...course this is 'Cinammon' with one 'N' & two 'M's...
	🌮 9:40pm Franco Twinkie: I can barley discern the melody buried under layers of cotton candy.
	9:40pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): hi, Jim the Poet and folx, this is pretty
	9:41pm Jim the Poet: I don't know how to spell Cinnamon
	9:41pm Gurldoggie: This must be the part where the drummer relaxes and waits between shows.
	9:41pm Jim the Poet: I do know how to spell Cinnabon
	9:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Who does.
	🌮 9:42pm Franco Twinkie: Hi Baba! Did you bring the special candles and a tasseled pillow?
	9:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...oh they were just tuning up...
	🌮 9:44pm Franco Twinkie: Okay, I'm getting out of the hot tub. Who wants ice cream?
	9:44pm northguineahills: I imagine this Tuluum is in reference to the pre-Mayan site in Mexico...
	9:46pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Pranko! meeee! whatcha got!?!
	9:47pm TDK60: Baba B., present, aye.
	9:47pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): I was lured into a place that had violet ice cream on the menu, but when I asked, they had none :-(
	🌮 9:48pm Franco Twinkie: What did you get instead?
	9:49pm Destroit: Lol oh you two…
	9:50pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): I got a triple sampler of sticky rice + mango, Vietnamese rocky road and Sakura (cherry blossom) crunch, mmm
	9:51pm northguineahills: that's a very sad story Mx Baba Bee. Now I want lavender ice cream.....
	9:51pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): hey, TDK60kins!
	9:51pm chresti: Aye Mx Baba Beekins!
	9:51pm Destroit: Holy crap Mx BBkins that sounds incredible
	🌮 9:52pm Franco Twinkie: Okay, sounds like you went for the gold.
	9:52pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Destroit: it was rather delicious, and not overly sweet!
	9:52pm chresti: Hi Destroit!
	9:53pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): chrestikins, let's go get ice cream soon! Beat the heat! I wish this would be the music playing as it all melted down our arms and chins
	🌮 9:54pm Franco Twinkie: It's hair wash night - I'll be back soon.
	9:54pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): ngh: mmmmmm, lavender ice creammmmmmm
	9:55pm StringOFperils: Two scoops of sadist ripple
	9:56pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): SOp: glass shards and pond scum?
	9:57pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): that's urban pond scum
	9:57pm StringOFperils: Truly mean
	🌮 9:57pm Franco Twinkie: I'll just have a dab of goat cheese on a Ritz cracker...and a hit on the crack pipe.
	9:57pm Destroit: Hi chresti! Really diggin the mellow mcfrowsubshowy Jim.
	9:59pm Kat in Chicago: oh hey it's another Jim the Poet fill-in, yay!
	🌮 9:59pm Will the Sound Guy: Hi Jim the Poet and all!!!
	10:00pm Jim the Poet: Hey DJ Kat!
	10:00pm ashestoashes: beautiful music all around and now nudging us slightly out of the parasympathetic.
	10:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...slow creepy music for fast horrifying times...
	10:00pm slugluv1313: Tuluum Shimmering 💚💜🖤🧡💙 greetings, Jim! Poets! Showfacers! been lurking, loving the sounds/vibes
	10:02pm northguineahills: Ana Fosca, new to me and digdug!
	10:03pm slugluv1313: Float On, Franco
	10:04pm Wyatt: I feel cleansed
	10:06pm spaniel: That was a nice first set, really enjoyed it, very meditative and introspective
	10:07pm slugluv1313: hi chresti! Mx. Baba Bee! those ice cream flavors sound like pure Heaven
	10:07pm Destroit: Slugluv always welcome. Cheers buddy!
	10:08pm Kat in Chicago: Yes I would like to taste all of those ice creams
	10:08pm rw: Hey Jim, what’s goin’ on?
	10:09pm Destroit: This show merging with Zoe’s…we all gonna be on another planet by 1am
	10:09pm headcleaner: A fill-in with Jim the Poet displeases me, he said, not a mote pledges paid, he asked quite staid: "But will they send my tote"? "This isn't NPR", she wrote
	10:09pm chresti: Hi Jim what's going on? You got a cool show going on that's what!
	10:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...fadng but staying tuned...
	10:09pm rw: Nice job with the Frow tonight. I couldn’t even tell! Hey everyone.
	10:09pm TDK60: Great first set; frowkeepers, aye?
	10:10pm Jim the Poet: Hey, guys. I am still thinking about the Eggo x Pop Tart I had this morning. Maybe they are better warmed up? www.poptarts.com...
	10:11pm slugluv1313: hi Destroit -- thank you! cheers right back atcha :)
	10:11pm chresti: Aye \\//
	10:12pm Gurldoggie: This is fantastic.
	10:12pm rw: Eggo Pop Tart, huh?
	10:12pm rw: I’d warm it.
	10:13pm Gurldoggie: Really weird and entertaining show Jim. It’s almost as if they let you play whatever the heck you want…
	10:13pm Kat in Chicago: hmm I don't know about that pop tart Jim
	10:13pm chresti: What element of eggo is in the pop tart?
	10:14pm rw: But mostly I think PopTarts taste better before you turn 9.
	10:14pm Kat in Chicago: I know about this playlist though, it rules
	10:15pm PaulRobeson1920: Hey Jim? What is up? It’s starting to rain here in Woodside
	10:15pm northguineahills: in my best brian wilson voice hold on the your Eggo!
	10:17pm Jim the Poet: I always get drawn in to the wacky new products. It's raining in Queens? Does that mean it skipped over me in Jersey City???
	10:17pm Destroit: Id eat the hell out of an eggo pop tart sight unseen. Gotta live baby!
	10:18pm Gurldoggie: Iggy Pop Tart?
	10:18pm chresti: Maybe inject it with cheese too
	10:18pm Destroit: That too. Fuck it
	10:18pm Kat in Chicago: I'd rather just pour some maple syrup on a waffle. Or some bread. Or a spoon.
	10:19pm Destroit: Yep. Do that too Kat. Anyone else? Anyone?
	10:20pm rw: Haha, leggo my Stooges
	10:20pm Destroit: waiting for literal shit sammich
	10:22pm chresti: Add paté to French it up!
	10:22pm rw: See what you started Mr. Poet?
	10:23pm northguineahills: I'll take one Gurldoggie!
	10:23pm Destroit: Mercury Rev no showed in Detroit tonight while opening for Brian Jonestown Massacre. Some friends seriously upset. Hope the Rev is OK
	10:25pm chresti: My dream room!
	10:25pm B R M: Fill-in Fever at WFMU.... catch it! (Great set!)
	10:26pm northguineahills: Well, good to hear Mercury Rev is touring again, nonetheless.
	10:26pm ryansterlingvirtue: Jim is more clay than clay and more frau than Jesse
	10:26pm Jim the Poet: Bummer about Mercury Rev
	10:27pm StringOFperils: Yes, Mercury Rev no-show = crushing disappointment
	10:27pm tak: !!!
	10:28pm Destroit: Rev also didnt make it to a couple Canadian shows for “non covid reasons” just before detroit. So who knows wtf is going on
	10:30pm Jim the Poet: I have to go to Detroit in August for a burial. Maybe I can get to a Tigers' game!
	10:32pm Destroit: Still much fun to be had here. Tigers should be a sleeper hit this year finally.
	10:33pm slugluv1313: raining here in Hoboken too -- but not in Jersey City?
	10:33pm Jim the Poet: The last time I watched them in Detroit Justin Verlander was the pitcher
	10:34pm Jim the Poet: It is raining in J.C. I forgot there's a big building in back now blocking the rain from the fire escape
	10:35pm tak: svarte greiner is a standard in sound
	🌮 10:35pm Franco Twinkie: I was mighty impressed with the brick streets around Tiger Stadium when I drove there in 1974. But I was more impressed with the Polish food across the street.
	10:36pm slugluv1313: this Svarte Greiner is devastating (in a GOOD way) -- must investigate more 🖤🖤🖤
	10:37pm TDK60: Was just looking; this Svarte G. bassist is in a a defunct brewery tank.
	10:38pm slugluv1313: @Jim -- ugh, yeah, i have seen that construction going on when i have walked by -- no more parking either?
	10:38pm chresti: Ah, thanks TDK60.
	10:39pm Jim the Poet: I don't think we have any parking. It's also going to be hard to load into Monty Hall I think
	10:39pm PaulRobeson1920: I clicked on that Poptart link @Jim the Poet… Ben Dover, who rated 1 star, writes “horrible… does not have a good taste. get rid of this flavor we want yummy fun flavors not disgusting bad idea flavors. tasted like nothing at first then had a bad after taste. get rid of it now pop tart company.” Thanks Jim thanks a lot
	10:40pm northguineahills: @TDK: well, it is a rather hopping piece.
	10:40pm TDK60: Sorry, not a tank but a cellar room.
	10:40pm Jim the Poet: Ben Dover makes some fine points, as usual. But bad-tasting pop tarts are kind of right up my alley.
	🌮 10:44pm Franco Twinkie: I have not had a Pop Tart since they were first introduced as a novelty food item back in the 1960's. But I seem to remember I ate so many while watching Felix the Cat, it could be another fifty five years before I crave another.
	10:45pm Jim the Poet: Sara A. is in THE HOUSE!!!!
	🌮 10:46pm Franco Twinkie: Sara, wherea?
	10:48pm slugluv1313: @Jim -- that sucks -- i hope that load in for Monty Hall isn't too difficult -- hell, i say, just plow through the ground floor of that dumb building (surely there is a back exit?) but that's just me 🤬🤬🤬
	10:49pm P-90: This Frowy McFrowface has been an excellent soundtrack for this evening. Cuz I’ve had that kind of evening…
	10:50pm Jim the Poet: The biggest load-in we had was always after the record fair, which I guess will be next year again!
	10:52pm slugluv1313: "Zen music for disturbed souls" -- i love it (from Svarte Greiner 's Bandcamp page) 🖤💜🖤💜🖤
	10:53pm tak: half of deaf center, his work is rich
	10:55pm Listener Robert: Say what you will about Pop Tarts (Kellogg), they blew away Post's knock-off, Toast'ems. In Toast'ems the filling was like painted on, and to make up for the relative lack of moist filling, they over-flavored them with flavor extracts. Then who was Toast-ettes, Nabisco's? Now you can get knock-offs from Dolgencorp, and while they're not Pop Tarts, Pop Tarts are not worth the amount extra you pay over the Dolgen knock-offs. It's like you can get 80-90% of the quality for 50% of the cost, why not?
	🌮 10:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Jim and poetry patrol!
	10:56pm TDK60: Listener Robert- I'd forgotten all that. And conflated all pop tarts into one phenom. My bad.
	10:58pm Listener Robert: Hey, I'm doing the equivalent by commenting here while listening to Austin Rich's show in Sheila's Jungle.
	10:59pm Jim the Poet: I kind of liked Toaster Strudel whoever made those. They came with frosting you could smear on from a tiny plastic dispenser. Which I would just end up sucking out directly into my face hole.
	11:01pm joe mulligan: Erik Knive Skodvin (Svarte Greiner) is a cool cat. Otto from Deaf Center as well. I saw them play as Deaf Center on a "school night" some time back, and it was the night before I knew I was going to get laid off at work. So after the show I asked if they wanted to get some belgian beers. a group of us went out and I said "F work!" and we threw some back until like 4ish am. The next day I was turfed up at work and they didn't lay me off that day!! I came so close to walking into my bosses office to beg for being let go so I could go home and sleep
	11:03pm Gurldoggie: I gotta say I like your “let the music do the talking” approach to announcing.
	11:04pm Irwin: Rah Ra!
	11:04pm patty: I miss Sprays Talk
	11:05pm patty: Sportsy
	11:05pm Jim the Poet: Hey Irwin!
	11:06pm Gurldoggie: All this excellent piano reminds me it’s Cecil Taylor’s birthday! Oh happy day!
	11:07pm Jim the Poet: Happy birthday, Mr. Taylor!
	11:07pm joe mulligan: fantastic show Jim the Poet
	11:07pm P-90: I never sucked Toaster Strudel frosting from the little plastic dispenser. Now I feel like I missed something.
	11:11pm Yes: JIM JAZZ. I DIG
	11:15pm Lolabelle Pancake: Please don't tell Courtney I'm listening to this "wigged-out" jazz!
	11:16pm sofa rex: i eat pie instead of pop tarts. strawb rubharb this week. Jim the Poet i love your fill in streak and bet you do too! happy poetry month! a short bit of fresh poem for yous- interruptions are the basis of conversation with heavy amounts of dispassionate fanaticism certain circuits aren't ready street knowledge decades of polish
	11:17pm Dorabelle Pancake: Lolabelle, Courtney would be mortified! And he'd feel betrayed.
	🌮 11:18pm Franco Twinkie: Lolabelle, has Courtney ever had a Pop Tart, or would he consider that 'foreign food'?
	11:21pm Lolabelle Pancake: Courtney likes the tart part, not the pop glop.
	🌮 11:23pm Franco Twinkie: Good to hear. He has a well developed palate.
	11:29pm maestroso: This whole Sun Ra set is brilliant.
	11:37pm Yes: i am enjoying
	11:41pm Irwin: Hayes Burnett and Samarai Celestial comprise one of the best rhythm sections Ra ever had. And no disrespect to Ronnie Boykins, Clifford Jarvis, Tommy Hunter, or the rest. Those two had so much punch.
	11:43pm Gurldoggie: Loved the extended Sun Ra set. A rare treat.
	11:47pm HyperDose: You're massaging my brain, Jim
	11:48pm Jim the Poet: It's like we're in a dome filled with cake frosting and fireflies
	11:49pm Yes: mmm
	11:52pm Bobby: All the recent extra Jim the Poet is good for me. Good for you.
	11:53pm Yes: thank you jim
	11:53pm HyperDose: Jim the Poet is an essential part of a balanced Freeform diet
	11:54pm Jim the Poet: Hey Thanks To You Guys! We'll see you sooner than we both expect!
	11:54pm Gurldoggie: Thanks for the journey Jim. Really enjoyed these last three hours.
	11:56pm rw: Thanks, Jim. Nice filling.
	11:57pm chresti: Thanks for the music show, Jim! Champion selection!
	11:57pm Jim the Poet: STAY TUNED FOR SARA A!
	11:58pm HyperDose: FINE, MAYBE WE WILL! ...thank you, Jim :)
	11:58pm Bobby: Definitely. We have questions
	12:00am slugluv1313: these past three hours have been wonderful -- thanks so much!
