	8:01pm luka: i sure have grown to love wed. nights
	8:01pm Pauly from Clifton: Hiya, Becky, gang!
	👻 8:02pm Destroit: Becky are you really there? Is the gang assembled? Is errbody gettin their tonks all ready?
	8:02pm coelacanth∅: whoa, i Love this song -this version
	8:02pm coelacanth∅: hi Becky
	8:02pm loveless: Studio D minus? Hello all.
	👻 8:03pm DanFA: Howdy Becky
	8:03pm Becky: Alas, tonkies in the know may have recognized that this is a re-run. I'll hopefully be back in the saddle in Studio A next Wednesday!
	8:03pm coelacanth∅: hi loveless
	8:04pm Becky: But I'm here listening with y'all :)
	8:04pm loveless: @coelacanth∅ Back atcha!
	8:05pm DocHollidey: I'm all ears
	8:09pm Becky: Dang, isn't this Kitty record spectacular.
	8:09pm P-90: I can live with a rerun. I guess.
	8:10pm DocHollidey: Our family watched Porter and Dolly every week religiously
	8:15pm P-90: “intervention” ha!
	8:16pm DocHollidey: No cure for that, lol
	👻 8:18pm DanFA: Becky, is the station still on lockdown?
	8:19pm Becky: It is, DanFA, but only for another week, we hope.
	8:21pm DannyW: I may have come across a Thurl Ravenscroft sighting on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zb6fnot_rUQ&ab_channel=TastySurrealBowl
	8:21pm ultradamno: I'm surprised these aren't coming at all pre-clickied, I do recognize the show..
	8:22pm Becky: Oh, 100%, Danny!!
	8:22pm DannyW: I hadn't seen this before. Is it new to you?
	8:23pm Becky: I hadn't seen that specifically, but knew he was the voice of Champy the Lion.
	8:24pm Becky: Breakfast the Feline
	👻 8:26pm DanFA: @DannyW I just watched it. I only wish commercials today were that odd. More puppets in commercials, please, Madison Avenue.
	8:26pm DannyW: I guess he cornered that market
	8:27pm Will: I used to say I was pretty tired of the whole recherche C+W thing, whatever form it took, and then along came Becky.
	👻 8:27pm DanFA: Now if only he were a country music singing troubadour, it would be so much better.
	8:30pm Becky: Haha, Will, I'm not sure what that means exactly -- but thank you, I think! Have been in the recherche business for almost 20 years around these NYC FM radio parts...
	8:30pm DannyW: @DanFA It's amazing how much creepier everyday things were back then. Just search old kids in halloween costume pics
	8:32pm quinoa marley: :toxic masculinity power hour" quote of the century
	8:34pm DocHollidey: Definitely is country music, lol, wished I could have seen the original chat. Roy Acuff's work was based on Hawaiian dobro. GIs coming home from WWII were influenced and liked Hawaiian music.
	8:34pm Lizchancey: Here and ready to combat any toxic behavior!
	8:35pm DocHollidey: They had "HIT" records in our local general/grocery store. Yes, I'm that old.
	👻 8:35pm DanFA: @DannyW I found it charming, honestly. But I'm also a sucker for puppetry and muppets, so there's that.
	8:36pm Will: @Becky: I mean that as the best possible flattery. Forcing me to hear Porter Swaggoner is a gift.
	8:36pm DocHollidey: And Lou Reed got his start in the music business playing guitar on knock off copies of Top 40 hits for Pickwick in the 1960s. I think it's cool.
	8:36pm Dano59: Jack - no not that Jack White - is quite the mimic
	8:39pm loveless: @DocHollidey Here's the first run playlist and comments. www.wfmu.org...
	8:40pm DocHollidey: Thanks loveless!
	8:40pm Dano59: being able to comment then and now on the same playlist - that's pretty recherche too
	8:41pm Dano59: hey - 'Rock'n'Roll Til the Cows Come Home' right here!
	8:42pm DocHollidey: Johnny Cash wannabe
	8:43pm Dano59: there's def. a subgenre of country songs that come right out and cop to copying the style of others (usually guitar playing, but singing too)
	8:45pm Dano59: or style(s) - Phil Baugh's Country Guitar, Merle Haggard & the Strangers' Impersonation Medley, and anytime Bill Kirchen plays Hot Rod Lincoln these days...
	8:46pm DocHollidey: Agreed Dano59
	8:47pm ultradamno: If it were the other Jack White (at least solo) it would have about six minutes of artlessly insinuated flashy guitar runs shoehorned in there.
	8:48pm Itamar: 3:30 AM here in Israel, been on the road for 3 hours now. Juat wanted to say thanks! Keep it goin' Becky, it's been a terrific set so far.
	8:48pm Becky: Thanks for tuning in, Itamar!
	8:49pm Cdub: Great set.....scratchy, twangy n reverby. Cheers from up north.
	8:50pm DocHollidey: Lifelong St. Louis Cardinals baseball fan. Dizzy Dean was an icon. Google it
	8:50pm Becky: Thanks, Cdub and to all you tonkies!! Great to be a listener with y'all for once!
	8:52pm DocHollidey: Becky, you are a country connoisseur
	👻 8:52pm Destroit: Thanks for hangin Becky, and i’ve quietly enjoyed the commenters, thanks everyone!
	8:52pm Dano59: back to a previous thread in February: what was that last episode of Cocaine & Rhinestones? I tell ya my first one, on Spade Cooley, scared the bejeepers outta me
	8:53pm Cdub: Pre-recorded ya mean and your listening too? If so cool!
	8:55pm DocHollidey: Glen Campbell was also a member of the Wrecking Crew. Could play anything, one of the greatest guitarists ever
	8:55pm Becky: When Glen died, my tribute show was all about his session work! What a genius.
	👻 8:56pm DanFA: He's great in The Wrecking Crew documentary.
	8:56pm Becky: Night, y'all. With any luck I'll be back with my scratchy-ass box o' rekkids live from Studio A next week.
	8:56pm Dano59: I like the Keith Richards version. There's also one with Mick.
	8:57pm DocHollidey: Glen was also in the Shindig TV house band with Leon Russell. I rank him with Hendrix, Clapton and the other greats.
	8:57pm DocHollidey: Good Night Becky and everyone
	8:57pm loveless: And Glen Campbell couldn't read music.
	8:57pm Dano59: thx for hanging Becky. & tonkies
	👻 8:58pm Destroit: Take care Doc, i particularly enjoyed your comments!
	8:58pm DocHollidey: Have a good night Destroit
	👻 8:58pm Destroit: And Cardinals should be interesting this year
	8:59pm DocHollidey: Yes!
	9:00pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Becky!
