	👻 3:06pm Bruce S.: hi Fabio and everyone
	3:07pm Robm: Hello fellow failures
	3:07pm tim from washington: Hello Fabio and everyone!
	3:07pm The Last Phillip: 7 DAYS!!! and irwin returned to the airwaves
	👻 3:08pm Rev. Turnip Druid: th'SNOW BUILDINGS, of course...
	3:09pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Fabio, Failsafes. I must be on my way to superstrength.
	3:11pm The Last Phillip: 176 hours 49 min to IRWINS RETURN😊😊😊
	3:12pm The Butterman: How dare that Scott Williams play Mr Giant Man. How dare he!!!!!
	3:13pm The Last Phillip: My apologies... good afternoon @fabio Happy Summer Schedule😁😁😁
	👻 3:13pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: lets gooooooooooooo
	👻 3:13pm Bruce S.: Last Phillip you are Irwin's number one fan
	👻 3:13pm chresti: He must be envious of djs that have opening theme songs.
	👻 3:14pm chresti: *@Butterman
	3:15pm The Last Phillip: @Bruce S. Actually back in 2009 he gave me a nervous breakdown.
	👻 3:16pm Bruce S.: how so
	3:17pm Ochre Ogre: Ciao Fabio!
	3:17pm The Last Phillip: @Bruce S. The whole show was dedicated to "amanda" the screaming child
	👻 3:17pm Ken From Hyde Park: Scott wrangled up five more clicky stars for Mr. Giant Man, so there's that. What other track has over 200 clicky stars?
	3:18pm The Last Phillip: I actually called IRWIN in 2009 and said please stop playing "amanda" he said NO
	👻 3:19pm Bruce S.: @last phillip I think I have Amanda the Screaming Child Living next door to me
	3:19pm The Count of Al Dente: Greetings all. A question: Is my depression acting up a bit, is one-half of my Gemini self a bit on edge because I was successful with some thing or another, instead of Failure, thus not having the strength?
	3:20pm maestroso: This NSB piece is mesmerising.
	3:20pm Ochre Ogre: Bruce S- Record her, could be the next Amanda.
	3:21pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Amanda is like the Shaggs, unlistenable crap. Like shittyflute.
	3:21pm The Count of Al Dente: Our old pal, Irwin? My Uncle Irwin??
	3:22pm Ochre Ogre: My shadow has failed, it stopped doing what I do, have to replace it.
	👻 3:22pm Bruce S.: @Ochre Ogre I'm already getting the live Show, I don't need to make a Live album out of it
	3:22pm The Last Phillip: I wish I could record his first show back or at least download it
	3:22pm ChukAmok: @KFHP I could tell you which song has more stars, but you might not like it.
	3:24pm The Last Phillip: Fridays with @faye and @irwin. Priceless
	3:24pm The Butterman: The Count, I too have (had) an uncle Irwin. Lived in El Paso. Amazing man.
	3:24pm ChukAmok: Actually, now that I have looked into it I realize that I am incorrect, and also disappointed. Total failure over here.
	👻 3:25pm Bruce S.: Faye, Irwin Sheila B and Stashu
	3:25pm The Last Phillip: Wednesdays were soo perfect. Ken then IRWIN seven second delay and evan "funk" davies
	👻 3:26pm Bruce S.: I like EFD in the afternoon, following Ken
	👻 3:27pm chresti: Love this
	👻 3:30pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Wonderful opening set, Fabio.
	3:31pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Total sounds like Dirty Beaches. @ The Last Philip-I can tell you back in 1994 Irwin and the rest of WFMU played Velvet Crush, Teenage Symphonies to God a lot. I think I listened to Irwin back in 84 or 85 when my friend turned me onto WMFU. His brother did this for him previously.
	👻 3:31pm chresti: Count: must be so, maybe the depression helps cancel your success thereby giving you strength?
	3:31pm tim from washington: This Total has a Skullflower/Vibracathedral vibe. Are they related?
	3:32pm Brendan: The drone component of that first set was lovely
	3:32pm tim from washington: @Wild Neil - Did Velvet Crush have Paul Chastain in it? There are a number of bands in my mind with Velvet and Crush that I get mixed up.
	3:33pm The Last Phillip: @Wild Neil\|\|Peace All I remember when KennyG also had a show. It was great.
	3:33pm Fake P.M.: Lets go with mahomes & CHIEFS!
	3:33pm The Last Phillip: Anyone Remeber KennyG show
	3:34pm Carmichael: This almost sounds like the Theme From Mannix.
	3:34pm tim from washington: Binaca Blast?
	3:34pm Matty Magoo: Me too, Fab!
	3:34pm The Count of Al Dente: KennyG was great. I have a few of his shows on cassette.
	3:35pm The Last Phillip: What do you think irwins first song will be
	3:35pm Brendan: A spray that helps smooth thing out… You mean an aerosolized martini? Brilliant. I’m on it.
	3:36pm steveo: What I remember most about KennyG is the time he played a 30-second movie promo on repeat for an hour (Giant! With Rock Hudson and Liz Taylor, it's Giant!)
	3:36pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @Tim from washington-yep it had Paul Chastain. GREAT album, must have. @The Last Phillip-I do not remember him, but I remember Ken and Irwin. And WILDGIRL. Saw her dance at CBGBs at a fundraiser for WFMU. I think Southern Culture on the Skids was there.
	3:37pm The Last Phillip: I could never use those throat sprays they'd always make me choke
	3:37pm The Count of Al Dente: Chresti, you may be on to something there.
	3:38pm Brendan: The ice cold gin combined with the latent cooling of vaporization. This could work…
	3:39pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @ The Last Philip-I predict some mind-blowing jazz thing, verging on psychedelic free jazz, but too melodic for that. I am doing CAD, listening to WFMU and drinking COFFEE. Robert Fripp likes to say reading a book is like a party, and a book with a cup of coffee is almost like an orgy. Same with this. I LOVE CAD. Its so ORDERLY, I get to LAY DOWN ALL THE RULES, MAN. Its a self-contained little universe complete with operating instructions, logic, a nice design. Micheal Flower is off the hook.....
	3:40pm tim from washington: @Wild Neil - Cool! Joe Belock is a big fan. I lived in Champaign IL where Paul has spent a lot of his life. He's a super friendly and pleasant person the few times I've interacted with him. It was super cool digging into Champaign music history and finding that Paul was in a number of efd worth power pop bands in the early 80s.
	👻 3:41pm Niall: @morphe': Are you over by the Halla Le Chélle?
	3:41pm ChukAmok: @Wild Neil I wonder what year that fundraiser at CB's was. Pretty sure I saw Southern Culture..., Velvet Crush, and JSBX on NYE in D.C. in...1995/96?
	👻 3:43pm Niall: @morphe': I'd say you are; I know the area alright, anyway.
	3:43pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @ChuckAmok-I am guessing no later than March 1995 as I joined the Air Force in March 95. IO am pretty sure it would have been a year earlier or so.
	3:47pm Handy Haversack: David Watson, our local piper!
	3:47pm David (in London): sneaks into the Lounge of Failure somewhat late, goes to the buffet, trips on the hem of extra long sarong, knocks over container of spaghetti, terrible mess over people's shoes. Laces? Spaghetti? Who knows Evening groovers!
	3:48pm tim from washington: @Handy - It's good to have a local piper! Hey DiL! Hope you've been well!
	3:49pm annette: proposing every parade ...whatever the occasion...should be accompanied by MR GIANT MAN. bring yer own balloons...
	👻 3:49pm Niall: The Tuvan singers have taken over the scrapyard!
	3:50pm Handy Haversack: I was eating shoelaces before it was cool. Evening, David.
	3:51pm David (in London): Tim, Handles, Chuk, Bruce, Reverend, Niall, Ken, Carmichael, S&M&S, Chrestikins et al. Ahoy!
	👻 3:51pm Bruce S.: David I hope no one tried to tie their shoes with spaghetti
	👻 3:52pm chresti: Ahoy Davidkins!
	3:52pm Stephen (in Bristol): evening assembled failures. Wondering which North London record shop had the honour of introducing Fabio to Natural Snow Buildings? Sweepstake anyone.. I'm going to punt for the long since vanished Second Layer.
	3:53pm Brendan: Waiter, I asked for these laces al dente!
	👻 3:55pm Niall: Oma Olet you finish, but this Sala-Arhimo track's the best crying-dog song of all time!
	3:55pm Stanley: Hi David 'Ligetti' in London
	3:56pm bleubombersune: tying spaghetti laces make wonderful bows
	👻 3:56pm Niall: Oh man, this is giving me a panic attack, and my dog lives in Germany now. I better check on the Muppets I've got locked in the back room.
	3:57pm Carmichael: Hola Dah-veed.
	👻 3:58pm Will the Sound Guy: eas successful
	3:58pm Carmichael: Oh my God, the commies!! Run for your lives!!!
	3:58pm The Last Phillip: I thought it was the severe thunderstorm warning here in the bronx
	👻 3:59pm Bruce S.: Maybe Irwin will start the show with an extended EAS sound
	3:59pm David (in London): Wotcha Stanley.
	👻 3:59pm Bas NL: Those Emergency Alert System releases all sound a bit the same to me.
	3:59pm ?: Thanks, now my baby woke up from her nap
	4:00pm David (in London): Hey Bas. I agree. They need to vary their material a little.
	👻 4:01pm Bas NL: Hi David!
	4:01pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Knowing Irwin he will play some outsider music like Amanda or that guy who was obsessed with that girl, and I think that guy shot someobody or something. Daniel Johnston. I never got the whole outsider music thing. I could see if it was awesome, but I guess I am just closed minded.
	👻 4:04pm Will the Sound Guy: sometimes they have a doom n gloom commentary with them...
	4:04pm Crustchin: My goodness I’m glad I am not your neighbor
	4:04pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: What is the best cheap beer? I am guessing Rolling Rock. Maybe Yeungling?
	4:05pm nic: love this!!!
	👻 4:05pm Bruce S.: pabst blue ribbon or schaffer
	4:10pm ChukAmok: Yuengling is disgusting and owned by a trumper. Most of those cheap beers are loaded with HFCS and pesticides, though some smaller and higher priced breweries struggle with those issues as well.
	👻 4:10pm Jason from Houston: I think I would still drink Schlitz if I could find it here. PBR on ice is top notch cheapo.
	👻 4:11pm Jason from Houston: Like, the can on ice. Not the beer itself. LOL
	4:12pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Wow, thats two votes for PBR. Huh. Some website said Hamms. Anybody ever try it? I find Yuengling delish.
	4:12pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, PBR is pretty much what I buy at this point as everything else around here is $15/six pack and up. If I'm going to spend too much on long drinks, I'll make it independent cider.
	4:13pm David (in London): If it's a celebration, it has to be Champale.
	4:14pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: I don't discuss politics here, nor pandemics, nor war in Ukraine. @Handy, where the heck do you live? GUINNESS is only $9.50 in the local supermarket in Albuquerque!
	👻 4:14pm Bruce S.: This is excellent Fabio
	4:14pm Handy Haversack: North Brooklyn, USA.
	4:15pm Wake up: Punk is Progressive / a listening acquired taste D.I.Y.
	4:15pm tim from washington: @Jason - Is Lonestar around?
	4:15pm MarkG: Fab, I just switched the show on a bit ago, did I hear you mention Shelly Hirsch, who is a vocalist ?
	4:17pm tim from washington: @Wild Neil - Before I quit drinking PBR was my go to. Hamm's is solid. Stag was my go-to when I lived in Illinois. For import cheapos, I loved any Mexican beer (except Corona) and all Canadians are great.
	4:18pm Tee Dee: Tecate
	4:18pm tim from washington: I always liked Yunegling when I could get it. I never lived anywhere where it was regionally carried.
	4:19pm Fabio: @ MarkG: Yes
	4:19pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @Handy-WOW I remember breakfast cereal for 5 bucks in the local Korean store circa 1993. There was ONE supermarket (Pathmark) in lower Manhattan near Pike Street. It had a large parking lot also. Sorry you are getting hosed on beer. @Tim et al re: PBR. Never had it. Better than Bud I assume? I haven't had a budweiser in 30 years so I forgot. I think it sucked.
	4:20pm ACIDCAJUAL88: Mi amore
	👻 4:21pm Jason from Houston: It is, Tim. Six tallboys will run you $6-7.
	👻 4:21pm Bruce S.: wild Neil PBR way better then Budweiser or Coors which both taste like vomit
	4:22pm tim from washington: PBR is definitely better than Bud. I'd drink Bud only if there was nothing else to drink. Miller products are decent if you go for bigger brands.
	4:22pm ChukAmok: I remember liking Olympia beer way back when. Hamm's was another popular choice in the PNW.
	👻 4:22pm Jason from Houston: I do love a cold, cold bottle of High Life.
	4:23pm tim from washington: I could never get loaded when there was only Bud, Busch or Coors to drink.
	4:23pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Coors sounds horrible. Same for Bud. Where does Rolling Rock sit in these calculations of barley juice? I remember it being ok back in 1990?
	4:23pm ChukAmok: PBR makes me physically ill after just one can. Delicate constitution, I guess.
	👻 4:23pm Bruce S.: the champagne of bottled beers
	4:24pm ChukAmok: @Wild Neil Have you heard the David Cross stand-up bit on Coors? Very funny.
	4:24pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, bars around here that have a $4 bottle of High Life are high-life savers. Wonderville, last night's venue, has $4 Estrellas.
	4:24pm tim from washington: Rolling Rock is decent. It was never a go to for me, though.
	👻 4:25pm Jason from Houston: Every time I have had Rolling Rock, I turn green like the bottle.
	4:25pm ChukAmok: Back when Music Hall of Williamsburg was North 6 their price for a can of PBR was something obscene like $5/$6.
	4:26pm tim from washington: @Wild Neil - Go for some Lone Star if it's "exported" to NM.
	👻 4:26pm Bruce S.: Heres to good friends, tonight is kind of special, the beer we'll pour must say something more somehow, so tonight, let it be Lowenbrau
	4:27pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Lone Star, check. I'll look at Smith's next time I go.
	4:27pm ChukAmok: Oh! Best cheap beers: Zyweic & Czech Rebel. Pilsners both at .99 for 16oz.
	4:27pm Handy Haversack: Rolling Rock and Tecate both have an aftertaste that I don't care for at all.
	4:28pm Handy Haversack: Zyweic! National beer of Greenpoint!
	4:28pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Ziwiec?? The Polish beer is CHEAP??? WOW!
	4:28pm steveo: Great show today Fabio (so far, haha) the sky in Brooklyn looks like a scene from Ghostbusters
	👻 4:28pm Ken From Hyde Park: What is it that makes Coors a banquet beer? That couldn't be just marketing claptrap now, could it?
	4:28pm ChukAmok: @HH Is it the "candy corn" aftertaste? That's what I get with Heineken.
	👻 4:29pm chresti: You MUST have lime with Tecate.
	4:29pm Handy Haversack: Sometimes there's a Banquo in 'em, Ken. Chuk, no, not that phenol ... hmm. Now I'd have to have one to describe it. Like the smell of a pillow someone spilled champagne on yesterday.
	👻 4:30pm Jason from Houston: Agreed, chresti. The only way. And a lot of salt.
	4:30pm ChukAmok: Well, you don't have to. That description is enough.
	4:31pm katharsis: Hellos Fabio and strong ones. Hurricane is what my friend has me drinking on the cheap these days. Sorry to hear about Yuengling politics. wasn’t in a state that had it or even drinking beer for a while.
	👻 4:31pm Niall: Germany and Middle Europe'll give you the best of the cheapest, but I can't stomach many of those Eurolagers and pilsners. I'm a big fan of the brewery maybe half an hour's drive from me outside Dingle, West Kerry Brewing, but local brews on the small scale are an expensive habit. Delta-8, please come to Ireland! I should review Sinn Féin's positions about such matters again.
	👻 4:32pm Niall: /me sulkily brews a pot of puer tea.
	4:35pm Glistener MW: Belladonna of Sadness!!! what a masterpiece and must-see theatrical experience for anyone into psychedelic animation of that era
	4:36pm David (in London): Possession is an absolutely doozy. Visceral, weird and funny. Saw it again last summer, and at the end someone in the row behind me said "I've lost the plot. In every sense."
	4:37pm Glistener MW: I saw “Possession” for the first time in a cinema about 4-5 years ago and it left me cold as well. I’d been hearing its praises for years prior but something about the pacing and characters just annoyed me, even as someone very into the atypical/abstract.
	4:37pm Glistener MW: I feel like I very much appreciated it, while not particularly liking it.
	4:38pm The Count of Al Dente: "Outsider" music or art is like any other genre, it has both good and bad. I like Amanda, but too much can be irritating. I do dig Shooby Taylor. As for beer prices, maybe the next time I drive to NYC I can take orders. Maybe for cig's too. I can get a 12-pack of Guiness for $15. PBR is 24 for $17.
	4:39pm WM: What about Equinox Flower by Ozu at the Metrograph tomorrow?
	4:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Failure to pay attention !...
	4:40pm tim from washington: Fabio didn't like Possession because Popol Vuh didn't do the soundtrack ;)
	4:40pm WM: Also Wanda.
	4:41pm Handy Haversack: For some reason I thought Fabio was going to say "movies from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries." That's how much I trust his prowess!
	4:41pm _Ike_: Not a beer guy; the only ones I can drink are the ones that don’t taste like beer, like that grapefruit Hefeweizen.
	4:43pm Handy Haversack: We have greatly reduced beer consumption around the Haversackerai and replaced it with large vodka sodas with a splash of grapefruit. For vitamins!
	4:43pm nic: love this!!!
	4:44pm alexandra: I have been trying to avoid alcohol and bitters+soda or “hoppy water” especially the lagunitas one is pretty good to me.
	4:44pm ChukAmok: @HH Is that called a Greyhound, or a Madras?
	4:45pm Handy Haversack: We call it a Katetail, ChukAmok!
	4:45pm ChukAmok: Haha, that works.
	4:45pm tim from washington: @Handy - my go to vodka used to be Tito's.
	4:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Very little alkyhole in the entire PandemicTimes. Not by choice - but by finance ...liver appreciates it anyhow I suppose...
	4:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...rather fond of vino tintos as a staple...
	4:48pm Handy Haversack: Yup, tim. $41 for 1.75L.
	4:48pm brainiac: My liver has gone afloatin' on a sea of Guinness. I get the occasional postcard telling me it wishes I was there.
	👻 4:49pm chresti: We recently discovered that there's a Taiwanese "craft" brewery up the street from us.
	👻 4:49pm Niall: @Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I pivoted to nice teas in February 2020. I needed /something/ to geek out on.
	4:49pm tim from washington: What's that like, chresti?
	👻 4:49pm Bruce S.: It just got very dark here in Brooklyn
	4:50pm Handy Haversack: (Which for those keeping score at home is eight times the pure alcohol for about three times the unit price price of "good" beer around here. It's a win-win!)
	4:50pm brainiac: I'm callin' Ghostbusters!
	4:51pm Handy Haversack: Crap. Indeed, Bruce S. They just canceled my softball game. Hey, look -- vodka!
	👻 4:51pm chresti: tim, I don't know, haven't tried it (don't really drink beer anymore)
	4:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: In the Pro-Guinness column myself. No other quite like it. Not a Summery refresher per se... Was even going green tea for caffeines & just tuffing everything out... Got (very) cheap caffeine pills - & now DeathWish Coffees again... so tolerance is back up...
	👻 4:52pm Bruce S.: HH, at least you don't have to worry about getting a Vodka Belly
	4:54pm rev. turnip druid: stuck in afternoon commute, looks like i’ve been missing one EMMER EFFER of a beersies chat
	4:55pm Handy Haversack: Er, yes, Bruce S. Indeed.
	4:55pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Beer just satisfies a craving I have. Vodka and fruit juice makes me vaguely ill sometimes, but beer just hits the spot, especially with chips and salsa.
	4:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...beer is good for 'washing down' like that is it not...
	4:57pm Handy Haversack: I am taking to sea! My quest: find brainiac's liver! And join its crew!
	4:59pm nic: love this!!!
	👻 4:59pm Bruce S.: Sammy's Roumanian used to give you a bottle of absolut embedded in a block of Ice, Man, that was smoooooth
	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Do not understand the appeal of PBR - my 1st choice for cheap good 'washing down' / thirst beer would be Tecate (& lime) ...you understand I'm in NewHampshuh where a pretty good %age of the spuds @ a bar propagate the peer pressure to declare 'No Fruit!' when it comes to public drinking...
	👻 5:00pm chresti: I discovered long ago that it's the carbonation I crave, (same with soda pop) so sparkling water is now my go-to refreshment.
	5:01pm brainiac: Yo ho ho and a bottle of The black stuff
	5:01pm alexandra: Hi Chresti! Same.
	5:02pm Handy Haversack: Bruce S., don't. I. Know it.
	5:02pm P-90: Lately I’ve been adding 4-5 ounces of cold brew coffee to a tall glass of Guinness. Actually a harmonious blend. Plus: caffeine.
	5:02pm rev. turnip druid: fwiw: count this clergy in the “fewer & stronger” category on the beersies. Don’t mess around. One or two with boozy % and malt > hops.. .. and quickly please, getting thirsty here.
	👻 5:02pm chresti: Hi Alexandra!
	5:03pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @Chresti-Nalecow from a Polish store is usually very good. Avoid the Russian stuff, it sucks. Tastes like battery acid or something. Not sure about Ukrainian, stick with the Polish stuff, you can get 2 liter bottles of it at the Polish Supermarkets in Poland. Some US Polish stores have it. Its really good and a nice change from regular purified water.
	👻 5:04pm Jason from Houston: Hopping off to listen in the car. Cheers, good buddies. ꒰* ॢ ꈍ ◡ ꈍ ॢ꒱
	5:04pm rev. turnip druid: that said… hitting berlin soon for the first time. There will surely be much research mit doppelbocks & whatnot.
	5:06pm _Ike_: This is a highly appropriate soundtrack to southern Brooklyn's current weather, scattered looming menace with a chance of apocalypse.
	👻 5:06pm Bruce S.: I love stuff like this
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...one can never quite drink Guinness on an empty stomach - cause then it won't be...
	5:08pm P-90: I’ve been told by a couple of different (quite adult) guys that they just can’t deal with vodka with fruit juice or soda because it “reminds them of every painful high school memory”
	5:08pm brainiac: @P-90: I like the sound of that; I'll have to try that on my way to the bottom.
	5:08pm tim from washington: That James Tenney was great.
	5:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Well - once you've been ill on something. That's powerful somatic conditioning.
	5:09pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: I ran low on money so no beer and PB&J for lunch this week. What was that amazing music breaking out , Fabio???
	👻 5:09pm Niall: James Tenney the spectralist? I think I picked up a title or two by him a few years ago.
	5:10pm joe mulligan: no relation to Ned, but I agree nature always needs improving
	5:12pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Polish Farmer Drink": The szarlotka (apple pie). Highball glass, 2 oz of Zubrowka vodka and apple juice, serve with ice and lemon slice. Very round, non-acidic drink. Easy on the stomach.
	5:13pm tim from washington: I'm out of line, dammit!!!!
	5:15pm Bobby: Hey FMU and Jersey, from the end of Yo La Tengo’s set at Primavera!
	5:16pm Gurldoggie: If you have a consistently logical message board, then there are statements in that message board which are unsayable using just that message board’s messages.
	5:19pm Brendan: P-90 Re coffee and beer….KBS makes a coffee stout. It’s ridiculously expensive -about 15 bucks for a four pack. But given that it’s about 14% ABV (if memory serves) and cheaper than buying a beer in a bar, I tried it once. It had a lot going on. Like having beer, dinner, dessert& coffee in a bottle. Propaganda from their website: “KBS is a big imperial stout brewed with a massive amount of coffee and chocolate and then bourbon barrel-aged to perfection. Incredibly silky and full-bodied with notes of vanilla, cocoa, roasted coffee and charred oak.”
	5:20pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: "If you have a consistently Illogical message board, then there are statements in that message board which are sayable using just that message board’s messages. " @Brenden, OMG, that sounds perfect. I LOVE coffee too.
	5:23pm tim from washington: @Brendan - Is that a Founders beer? They also had a Breakfast Stout that was pretty hearty.
	👻 5:24pm royvis: Big fan of the Founders KBS series, most are 12% ABV. Espresso may be my favorite, but by and large they are all quite tasty and potent.
	5:25pm rev. turnip druid: also: something went suddenly awry with alc.tolerance in the last few years, so one decent russian imperial and rev is done. Old age makes one a cheap date. Perhaps.
	5:25pm Miss G: Playlist looks fascinating! I will have to enjoy in the archive. Hectic here & getting my niece ready for travel to NYC (I remain here.) The weekend looks glorious (after the rain) y'all have a great one!
	5:26pm rev. turnip druid: Uncle Paul!
	5:27pm DanFA: Thought it was going to be Lost by Neurosis
	5:27pm brainiac: @Fabio: Really enjoyed your mix in the previous set. Now I'm tempted to play "Words of Paradise" under everything!
	5:27pm Gurldoggie: Yes @Wild Neil, that’s true too. Gabba gabba hey!
	👻 5:28pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: i believe that narrated section was written by Arseny Tarkovsky, Andre's father.
	5:28pm Brendan: Wild Neil, yeah beer and coffee.- go figure.Sounds odd but it was actually pretty darned good. Tim, you got it - Founders.
	5:30pm nic: wow love this!!!
	5:32pm Handy Haversack: Had to take a phone call from a canoe guy, which was very pleasant, but listening was relegated to the background. Enjoying muchly now that I can focus again. Also, I made a pair of Red Hooks for us. Cheers, m'dears! Glad to to have sat under thunder and failure with you!
	5:32pm Miss G: BBQJA do you mean <How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty>? I'm getting from search that it is Paul Bowles from "The Sheltering Sky" (I looked it up as it's so beautiful)
	👻 5:33pm Niall: I let this carrot, ginger and rhubarb ferment grow some kahm yeast and now my house smells like a dang whiskey distillery.
	5:33pm Carmichael: Well, a beer thread. I can't drink any of the "cheap" stuff like Hamms, PBR, Bud, Coors, etc ... I have to have the hops, big and bold. I occasionally post on Marty's board while I'm having an Elysian Brewing Space Dust IPA. Igerw up on the Guinness, but made a hard left turn somewhere back.
	5:35pm Carmichael: *I grew
	5:35pm Brendan: Not to get all Rush , but this sounds like the (bridge?) section in Necromancer where Neil says “Shreds of black cloud loom in overcast skies …”
	5:35pm brainiac: Arthur's brew will be waiting for you, Carm, whenever you're ready to return.
	👻 5:36pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: oh @missg you are correct. im thinking of a different song from Async. Still Life is the one with the Tarkovsky poem.
	5:37pm Carmichael: I've been out and about, brainiac. What say we hoist a flagon?
	👻 5:37pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: and it's from Out of Noise not Async. d'oh.
	5:38pm brainiac: @Carmichael: I would love to! Waiting your yesterday's Covid test results...
	5:38pm Handy Haversack: WFMU is now a safe space for Rush, Brendan. It's good. SUBDIVISIONS Carmichael, K8 loves the hoppy IPAs, but I can't stand 'em. An ESB or an English IPA with still some biscuit to it is more my sweet spot. Or a Scottish 80/-!
	5:39pm brainiac: sorry, *waiting on yesterday's results
	5:40pm brainiac: MY TEST RESULTS SHOULD BE COMING SOON
	👻 5:40pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: no, it IS from Async! "Life, Life"....not Still Life....double d'oh!!! nothing to see here.
	👻 5:41pm chris in the redwoods: all fingers crossed for failure, brainiac.
	5:41pm brainiac: I didn't even study.
	👻 5:43pm chris in the redwoods: also, mmmm.... beer. the ales have me.
	5:43pm Peter from Dover NJ: Tuned in late because I was practicing. What I've heard is brilliant. Thank you, Fabio.
	5:43pm Carmichael: Let me know, ol' buddy ol' pal.
	5:43pm Andres: Hello. I lament the dearth of short cans. Beer is less likely to get warm before you finish it.
	5:44pm brainiac: OK, will do. 🍺🍺
	5:45pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, Andres. They are a thing of beauty. Fortunately, WFMU makes beer koozies. Right, Chris?
	👻 5:45pm chris in the redwoods: two of my fav locals still have 12oz cans: Fort Point and Lagunitas. the trend for pint cans is a bit alarming in warmer temps, i agree Andres.
	5:46pm tim from washington: Thanks for the Henry Flynt, Fabio. This is so good.
	5:46pm Handy Haversack: I thought Andres meant the 8 oz. can. Like Little Kings! I see Bud in them sometimes around here.
	👻 5:46pm chris in the redwoods: right, Handy! i guess i could put Joe's coozie on one end and the wfmu coozie on the other end of a pint can.
	👻 5:47pm Bruce S.: Henry Flynt is mint,always great
	5:48pm The Count of Al Dente: I can't drink much of any alcohol anymore, so my go-to drink when I'm in NYC is Manhattan Special Espresso Soda.
	5:48pm brainiac: When I was young, I'd travel to Wisconsin to bring home a case or two of Point beer. My Chicago friends referred to it as Pour Out In Nearest Toilet.
	5:49pm Andres: 355ml vs 473ml. A quick beer is harder to pull off in the pint cans yeah. But yes, we do have the koozie technology.
	5:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Love me some Indianstylee.
	5:49pm Ciggy: Hey Failures, do you want to live longer through coffee? www.nytimes.com...
	5:51pm _Ike_: Is that about the study from the UK, where mostly just affluent people drink coffee? Correlation does not equal causation. Affluent people live longer because they're affluent.
	5:53pm _Ike_: @Count, I don't even like coffee, but a Manhattan Special soda is quite nice now and then.
	5:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Beer & Coffees generally make you Fluent. Drink Water ! ...Available & even Safe in the finer Territories of thePostApocalyptic Americas...
	👻 5:56pm Bruce S.: Fabio, thanks for another great show Enjoy your weekend everyone, thanks
	5:57pm Brendan: Booze and coffee. Good talk. And the music! Have mercy!Thanks Fabio. I think we all failed yet again. Or at least we’ve tried.
	5:57pm Handy Haversack: I am pretty much off coffee for reasons entirely unknown. Dang, wait, has this all been the Flynt? All the crazy strings? I thought it was Monypenny. That was so good! Many thanks, Fabio! Great stuff! Really nice show. O my Strong Ones, failing with you is victory on almost any planet you can name. Be well!
	5:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Fabio ~
	👻 5:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Fabio. From the "Who's Failing Now?" annals, Fabio is on the summer schedule and the Old Codger is not.
	5:58pm tim from washington: Thanks, Fabio! Today's show hit the spot for me.
	👻 5:58pm chris in the redwoods: wowsers, Fabio. thanks once again. take care, one and all. see you fine folks around here soonish...
	👻 5:58pm chresti: Thanks Fabio! Enjoyed the show!
	5:58pm The Count of Al Dente: @Ike: Ferdinando's Focacceria, a Sicilian joint on Union St. in Brooklyn has Manhattan Special on tap.
	5:59pm The Count of Al Dente: Fabio and kin, ciao until next time!
	5:59pm Carmichael: Thanks Fab.
	5:59pm _Ike_: Woah! Is it better on tap than in a bottle?!?
	6:00pm brainiac: Thanks Fabio, and cheers to all ye fellow failures
	6:00pm bleubombersune: Fabio Super music Thanks
	👻 6:00pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: great show
	👻 6:00pm Niall: BUCKFAST
	6:00pm listener james from westwood: Killer diller as always, Fabio; thanks!
	6:00pm Handy Haversack: Don't do it, Niall!
	6:00pm katharsis: Bye
	6:05pm RB: testing 1, 2, 3

	3:07pm tim from washington: Hello Fabio and everyone!
	3:07pm The Last Phillip: 7 DAYS!!! and irwin returned to the airwaves
	👻 3:08pm Rev. Turnip Druid: th'SNOW BUILDINGS, of course...
	3:09pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Fabio, Failsafes. I must be on my way to superstrength.
	3:11pm The Last Phillip: 176 hours 49 min to IRWINS RETURN😊😊😊
	3:12pm The Butterman: How dare that Scott Williams play Mr Giant Man. How dare he!!!!!
	3:13pm The Last Phillip: My apologies... good afternoon @fabio Happy Summer Schedule😁😁😁
	👻 3:13pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: lets gooooooooooooo
	👻 3:13pm Bruce S.: Last Phillip you are Irwin's number one fan
	👻 3:13pm chresti: He must be envious of djs that have opening theme songs.
	👻 3:14pm chresti: *@Butterman
	3:15pm The Last Phillip: @Bruce S. Actually back in 2009 he gave me a nervous breakdown.
	👻 3:16pm Bruce S.: how so
	3:17pm Ochre Ogre: Ciao Fabio!
	3:17pm The Last Phillip: @Bruce S. The whole show was dedicated to "amanda" the screaming child
	👻 3:17pm Ken From Hyde Park: Scott wrangled up five more clicky stars for Mr. Giant Man, so there's that. What other track has over 200 clicky stars?
	3:18pm The Last Phillip: I actually called IRWIN in 2009 and said please stop playing "amanda" he said NO
	👻 3:19pm Bruce S.: @last phillip I think I have Amanda the Screaming Child Living next door to me
	3:19pm The Count of Al Dente: Greetings all. A question: Is my depression acting up a bit, is one-half of my Gemini self a bit on edge because I was successful with some thing or another, instead of Failure, thus not having the strength?
	3:20pm maestroso: This NSB piece is mesmerising.
	3:20pm Ochre Ogre: Bruce S- Record her, could be the next Amanda.
	3:21pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Amanda is like the Shaggs, unlistenable crap. Like shittyflute.
	3:21pm The Count of Al Dente: Our old pal, Irwin? My Uncle Irwin??
	3:22pm Ochre Ogre: My shadow has failed, it stopped doing what I do, have to replace it.
	👻 3:22pm Bruce S.: @Ochre Ogre I'm already getting the live Show, I don't need to make a Live album out of it
	3:22pm The Last Phillip: I wish I could record his first show back or at least download it
	3:22pm ChukAmok: @KFHP I could tell you which song has more stars, but you might not like it.
	3:24pm The Last Phillip: Fridays with @faye and @irwin. Priceless
	3:24pm The Butterman: The Count, I too have (had) an uncle Irwin. Lived in El Paso. Amazing man.
	3:24pm ChukAmok: Actually, now that I have looked into it I realize that I am incorrect, and also disappointed. Total failure over here.
	👻 3:25pm Bruce S.: Faye, Irwin Sheila B and Stashu
	3:25pm The Last Phillip: Wednesdays were soo perfect. Ken then IRWIN seven second delay and evan "funk" davies
	👻 3:26pm Bruce S.: I like EFD in the afternoon, following Ken
	👻 3:27pm chresti: Love this
	👻 3:30pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Wonderful opening set, Fabio.
	3:31pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Total sounds like Dirty Beaches. @ The Last Philip-I can tell you back in 1994 Irwin and the rest of WFMU played Velvet Crush, Teenage Symphonies to God a lot. I think I listened to Irwin back in 84 or 85 when my friend turned me onto WMFU. His brother did this for him previously.
	👻 3:31pm chresti: Count: must be so, maybe the depression helps cancel your success thereby giving you strength?
	3:31pm tim from washington: This Total has a Skullflower/Vibracathedral vibe. Are they related?
	3:32pm Brendan: The drone component of that first set was lovely
	3:32pm tim from washington: @Wild Neil - Did Velvet Crush have Paul Chastain in it? There are a number of bands in my mind with Velvet and Crush that I get mixed up.
	3:33pm The Last Phillip: @Wild Neil\|\|Peace All I remember when KennyG also had a show. It was great.
	3:33pm Fake P.M.: Lets go with mahomes & CHIEFS!
	3:33pm The Last Phillip: Anyone Remeber KennyG show
	3:34pm Carmichael: This almost sounds like the Theme From Mannix.
	3:34pm tim from washington: Binaca Blast?
	3:34pm Matty Magoo: Me too, Fab!
	3:34pm The Count of Al Dente: KennyG was great. I have a few of his shows on cassette.
	3:35pm The Last Phillip: What do you think irwins first song will be
	3:35pm Brendan: A spray that helps smooth thing out… You mean an aerosolized martini? Brilliant. I’m on it.
	3:36pm steveo: What I remember most about KennyG is the time he played a 30-second movie promo on repeat for an hour (Giant! With Rock Hudson and Liz Taylor, it's Giant!)
	3:36pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @Tim from washington-yep it had Paul Chastain. GREAT album, must have. @The Last Phillip-I do not remember him, but I remember Ken and Irwin. And WILDGIRL. Saw her dance at CBGBs at a fundraiser for WFMU. I think Southern Culture on the Skids was there.
	3:37pm The Last Phillip: I could never use those throat sprays they'd always make me choke
	3:37pm The Count of Al Dente: Chresti, you may be on to something there.
	3:38pm Brendan: The ice cold gin combined with the latent cooling of vaporization. This could work…
	3:39pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @ The Last Philip-I predict some mind-blowing jazz thing, verging on psychedelic free jazz, but too melodic for that. I am doing CAD, listening to WFMU and drinking COFFEE. Robert Fripp likes to say reading a book is like a party, and a book with a cup of coffee is almost like an orgy. Same with this. I LOVE CAD. Its so ORDERLY, I get to LAY DOWN ALL THE RULES, MAN. Its a self-contained little universe complete with operating instructions, logic, a nice design. Micheal Flower is off the hook.....
	3:40pm tim from washington: @Wild Neil - Cool! Joe Belock is a big fan. I lived in Champaign IL where Paul has spent a lot of his life. He's a super friendly and pleasant person the few times I've interacted with him. It was super cool digging into Champaign music history and finding that Paul was in a number of efd worth power pop bands in the early 80s.
	👻 3:41pm Niall: @morphe': Are you over by the Halla Le Chélle?
	3:41pm ChukAmok: @Wild Neil I wonder what year that fundraiser at CB's was. Pretty sure I saw Southern Culture..., Velvet Crush, and JSBX on NYE in D.C. in...1995/96?
	👻 3:43pm Niall: @morphe': I'd say you are; I know the area alright, anyway.
	3:43pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @ChuckAmok-I am guessing no later than March 1995 as I joined the Air Force in March 95. IO am pretty sure it would have been a year earlier or so.
	3:47pm Handy Haversack: David Watson, our local piper!
	3:47pm David (in London): sneaks into the Lounge of Failure somewhat late, goes to the buffet, trips on the hem of extra long sarong, knocks over container of spaghetti, terrible mess over people's shoes. Laces? Spaghetti? Who knows Evening groovers!
	3:48pm tim from washington: @Handy - It's good to have a local piper! Hey DiL! Hope you've been well!
	3:49pm annette: proposing every parade ...whatever the occasion...should be accompanied by MR GIANT MAN. bring yer own balloons...
	👻 3:49pm Niall: The Tuvan singers have taken over the scrapyard!
	3:50pm Handy Haversack: I was eating shoelaces before it was cool. Evening, David.
	3:51pm David (in London): Tim, Handles, Chuk, Bruce, Reverend, Niall, Ken, Carmichael, S&M&S, Chrestikins et al. Ahoy!
	👻 3:51pm Bruce S.: David I hope no one tried to tie their shoes with spaghetti
	👻 3:52pm chresti: Ahoy Davidkins!
	3:52pm Stephen (in Bristol): evening assembled failures. Wondering which North London record shop had the honour of introducing Fabio to Natural Snow Buildings? Sweepstake anyone.. I'm going to punt for the long since vanished Second Layer.
	3:53pm Brendan: Waiter, I asked for these laces al dente!
	👻 3:55pm Niall: Oma Olet you finish, but this Sala-Arhimo track's the best crying-dog song of all time!
	3:55pm Stanley: Hi David 'Ligetti' in London
	3:56pm bleubombersune: tying spaghetti laces make wonderful bows
	👻 3:56pm Niall: Oh man, this is giving me a panic attack, and my dog lives in Germany now. I better check on the Muppets I've got locked in the back room.
	3:57pm Carmichael: Hola Dah-veed.
	👻 3:58pm Will the Sound Guy: eas successful
	3:58pm Carmichael: Oh my God, the commies!! Run for your lives!!!
	3:58pm The Last Phillip: I thought it was the severe thunderstorm warning here in the bronx
	👻 3:59pm Bruce S.: Maybe Irwin will start the show with an extended EAS sound
	3:59pm David (in London): Wotcha Stanley.
	👻 3:59pm Bas NL: Those Emergency Alert System releases all sound a bit the same to me.
	3:59pm ?: Thanks, now my baby woke up from her nap
	4:00pm David (in London): Hey Bas. I agree. They need to vary their material a little.
	👻 4:01pm Bas NL: Hi David!
	4:01pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Knowing Irwin he will play some outsider music like Amanda or that guy who was obsessed with that girl, and I think that guy shot someobody or something. Daniel Johnston. I never got the whole outsider music thing. I could see if it was awesome, but I guess I am just closed minded.
	👻 4:04pm Will the Sound Guy: sometimes they have a doom n gloom commentary with them...
	4:04pm Crustchin: My goodness I’m glad I am not your neighbor
	4:04pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: What is the best cheap beer? I am guessing Rolling Rock. Maybe Yeungling?
	4:05pm nic: love this!!!
	👻 4:05pm Bruce S.: pabst blue ribbon or schaffer
	4:10pm ChukAmok: Yuengling is disgusting and owned by a trumper. Most of those cheap beers are loaded with HFCS and pesticides, though some smaller and higher priced breweries struggle with those issues as well.
	👻 4:10pm Jason from Houston: I think I would still drink Schlitz if I could find it here. PBR on ice is top notch cheapo.
	👻 4:11pm Jason from Houston: Like, the can on ice. Not the beer itself. LOL
	4:12pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Wow, thats two votes for PBR. Huh. Some website said Hamms. Anybody ever try it? I find Yuengling delish.
	4:12pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, PBR is pretty much what I buy at this point as everything else around here is $15/six pack and up. If I'm going to spend too much on long drinks, I'll make it independent cider.
	4:13pm David (in London): If it's a celebration, it has to be Champale.
	4:14pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: I don't discuss politics here, nor pandemics, nor war in Ukraine. @Handy, where the heck do you live? GUINNESS is only $9.50 in the local supermarket in Albuquerque!
	👻 4:14pm Bruce S.: This is excellent Fabio
	4:14pm Handy Haversack: North Brooklyn, USA.
	4:15pm Wake up: Punk is Progressive / a listening acquired taste D.I.Y.
	4:15pm tim from washington: @Jason - Is Lonestar around?
	4:15pm MarkG: Fab, I just switched the show on a bit ago, did I hear you mention Shelly Hirsch, who is a vocalist ?
	4:17pm tim from washington: @Wild Neil - Before I quit drinking PBR was my go to. Hamm's is solid. Stag was my go-to when I lived in Illinois. For import cheapos, I loved any Mexican beer (except Corona) and all Canadians are great.
	4:18pm Tee Dee: Tecate
	4:18pm tim from washington: I always liked Yunegling when I could get it. I never lived anywhere where it was regionally carried.
	4:19pm Fabio: @ MarkG: Yes
	4:19pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @Handy-WOW I remember breakfast cereal for 5 bucks in the local Korean store circa 1993. There was ONE supermarket (Pathmark) in lower Manhattan near Pike Street. It had a large parking lot also. Sorry you are getting hosed on beer. @Tim et al re: PBR. Never had it. Better than Bud I assume? I haven't had a budweiser in 30 years so I forgot. I think it sucked.
	4:20pm ACIDCAJUAL88: Mi amore
	👻 4:21pm Jason from Houston: It is, Tim. Six tallboys will run you $6-7.
	👻 4:21pm Bruce S.: wild Neil PBR way better then Budweiser or Coors which both taste like vomit
	4:22pm tim from washington: PBR is definitely better than Bud. I'd drink Bud only if there was nothing else to drink. Miller products are decent if you go for bigger brands.
	4:22pm ChukAmok: I remember liking Olympia beer way back when. Hamm's was another popular choice in the PNW.
	👻 4:22pm Jason from Houston: I do love a cold, cold bottle of High Life.
	4:23pm tim from washington: I could never get loaded when there was only Bud, Busch or Coors to drink.
	4:23pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Coors sounds horrible. Same for Bud. Where does Rolling Rock sit in these calculations of barley juice? I remember it being ok back in 1990?
	4:23pm ChukAmok: PBR makes me physically ill after just one can. Delicate constitution, I guess.
	👻 4:23pm Bruce S.: the champagne of bottled beers
	4:24pm ChukAmok: @Wild Neil Have you heard the David Cross stand-up bit on Coors? Very funny.
	4:24pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, bars around here that have a $4 bottle of High Life are high-life savers. Wonderville, last night's venue, has $4 Estrellas.
	4:24pm tim from washington: Rolling Rock is decent. It was never a go to for me, though.
	👻 4:25pm Jason from Houston: Every time I have had Rolling Rock, I turn green like the bottle.
	4:25pm ChukAmok: Back when Music Hall of Williamsburg was North 6 their price for a can of PBR was something obscene like $5/$6.
	4:26pm tim from washington: @Wild Neil - Go for some Lone Star if it's "exported" to NM.
	👻 4:26pm Bruce S.: Heres to good friends, tonight is kind of special, the beer we'll pour must say something more somehow, so tonight, let it be Lowenbrau
	4:27pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Lone Star, check. I'll look at Smith's next time I go.
	4:27pm ChukAmok: Oh! Best cheap beers: Zyweic & Czech Rebel. Pilsners both at .99 for 16oz.
	4:27pm Handy Haversack: Rolling Rock and Tecate both have an aftertaste that I don't care for at all.
	4:28pm Handy Haversack: Zyweic! National beer of Greenpoint!
	4:28pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Ziwiec?? The Polish beer is CHEAP??? WOW!
	4:28pm steveo: Great show today Fabio (so far, haha) the sky in Brooklyn looks like a scene from Ghostbusters
	👻 4:28pm Ken From Hyde Park: What is it that makes Coors a banquet beer? That couldn't be just marketing claptrap now, could it?
	4:28pm ChukAmok: @HH Is it the "candy corn" aftertaste? That's what I get with Heineken.
	👻 4:29pm chresti: You MUST have lime with Tecate.
	4:29pm Handy Haversack: Sometimes there's a Banquo in 'em, Ken. Chuk, no, not that phenol ... hmm. Now I'd have to have one to describe it. Like the smell of a pillow someone spilled champagne on yesterday.
	👻 4:30pm Jason from Houston: Agreed, chresti. The only way. And a lot of salt.
	4:30pm ChukAmok: Well, you don't have to. That description is enough.
	4:31pm katharsis: Hellos Fabio and strong ones. Hurricane is what my friend has me drinking on the cheap these days. Sorry to hear about Yuengling politics. wasn’t in a state that had it or even drinking beer for a while.
	👻 4:31pm Niall: Germany and Middle Europe'll give you the best of the cheapest, but I can't stomach many of those Eurolagers and pilsners. I'm a big fan of the brewery maybe half an hour's drive from me outside Dingle, West Kerry Brewing, but local brews on the small scale are an expensive habit. Delta-8, please come to Ireland! I should review Sinn Féin's positions about such matters again.
	👻 4:32pm Niall: /me sulkily brews a pot of puer tea.
	4:35pm Glistener MW: Belladonna of Sadness!!! what a masterpiece and must-see theatrical experience for anyone into psychedelic animation of that era
	4:36pm David (in London): Possession is an absolutely doozy. Visceral, weird and funny. Saw it again last summer, and at the end someone in the row behind me said "I've lost the plot. In every sense."
	4:37pm Glistener MW: I saw “Possession” for the first time in a cinema about 4-5 years ago and it left me cold as well. I’d been hearing its praises for years prior but something about the pacing and characters just annoyed me, even as someone very into the atypical/abstract.
	4:37pm Glistener MW: I feel like I very much appreciated it, while not particularly liking it.
	4:38pm The Count of Al Dente: "Outsider" music or art is like any other genre, it has both good and bad. I like Amanda, but too much can be irritating. I do dig Shooby Taylor. As for beer prices, maybe the next time I drive to NYC I can take orders. Maybe for cig's too. I can get a 12-pack of Guiness for $15. PBR is 24 for $17.
	4:39pm WM: What about Equinox Flower by Ozu at the Metrograph tomorrow?
	4:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Failure to pay attention !...
	4:40pm tim from washington: Fabio didn't like Possession because Popol Vuh didn't do the soundtrack ;)
	4:40pm WM: Also Wanda.
	4:41pm Handy Haversack: For some reason I thought Fabio was going to say "movies from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries." That's how much I trust his prowess!
	4:41pm _Ike_: Not a beer guy; the only ones I can drink are the ones that don’t taste like beer, like that grapefruit Hefeweizen.
	4:43pm Handy Haversack: We have greatly reduced beer consumption around the Haversackerai and replaced it with large vodka sodas with a splash of grapefruit. For vitamins!
	4:43pm nic: love this!!!
	4:44pm alexandra: I have been trying to avoid alcohol and bitters+soda or “hoppy water” especially the lagunitas one is pretty good to me.
	4:44pm ChukAmok: @HH Is that called a Greyhound, or a Madras?
	4:45pm Handy Haversack: We call it a Katetail, ChukAmok!
	4:45pm ChukAmok: Haha, that works.
	4:45pm tim from washington: @Handy - my go to vodka used to be Tito's.
	4:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Very little alkyhole in the entire PandemicTimes. Not by choice - but by finance ...liver appreciates it anyhow I suppose...
	4:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...rather fond of vino tintos as a staple...
	4:48pm Handy Haversack: Yup, tim. $41 for 1.75L.
	4:48pm brainiac: My liver has gone afloatin' on a sea of Guinness. I get the occasional postcard telling me it wishes I was there.
	👻 4:49pm chresti: We recently discovered that there's a Taiwanese "craft" brewery up the street from us.
	👻 4:49pm Niall: @Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I pivoted to nice teas in February 2020. I needed /something/ to geek out on.
	4:49pm tim from washington: What's that like, chresti?
	👻 4:49pm Bruce S.: It just got very dark here in Brooklyn
	4:50pm Handy Haversack: (Which for those keeping score at home is eight times the pure alcohol for about three times the unit price price of "good" beer around here. It's a win-win!)
	4:50pm brainiac: I'm callin' Ghostbusters!
	4:51pm Handy Haversack: Crap. Indeed, Bruce S. They just canceled my softball game. Hey, look -- vodka!
	👻 4:51pm chresti: tim, I don't know, haven't tried it (don't really drink beer anymore)
	4:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: In the Pro-Guinness column myself. No other quite like it. Not a Summery refresher per se... Was even going green tea for caffeines & just tuffing everything out... Got (very) cheap caffeine pills - & now DeathWish Coffees again... so tolerance is back up...
	👻 4:52pm Bruce S.: HH, at least you don't have to worry about getting a Vodka Belly
	4:54pm rev. turnip druid: stuck in afternoon commute, looks like i’ve been missing one EMMER EFFER of a beersies chat
	4:55pm Handy Haversack: Er, yes, Bruce S. Indeed.
	4:55pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Beer just satisfies a craving I have. Vodka and fruit juice makes me vaguely ill sometimes, but beer just hits the spot, especially with chips and salsa.
	4:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...beer is good for 'washing down' like that is it not...
	4:57pm Handy Haversack: I am taking to sea! My quest: find brainiac's liver! And join its crew!
	4:59pm nic: love this!!!
	👻 4:59pm Bruce S.: Sammy's Roumanian used to give you a bottle of absolut embedded in a block of Ice, Man, that was smoooooth
	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Do not understand the appeal of PBR - my 1st choice for cheap good 'washing down' / thirst beer would be Tecate (& lime) ...you understand I'm in NewHampshuh where a pretty good %age of the spuds @ a bar propagate the peer pressure to declare 'No Fruit!' when it comes to public drinking...
	👻 5:00pm chresti: I discovered long ago that it's the carbonation I crave, (same with soda pop) so sparkling water is now my go-to refreshment.
	5:01pm brainiac: Yo ho ho and a bottle of The black stuff
	5:01pm alexandra: Hi Chresti! Same.
	5:02pm Handy Haversack: Bruce S., don't. I. Know it.
	5:02pm P-90: Lately I’ve been adding 4-5 ounces of cold brew coffee to a tall glass of Guinness. Actually a harmonious blend. Plus: caffeine.
	5:02pm rev. turnip druid: fwiw: count this clergy in the “fewer & stronger” category on the beersies. Don’t mess around. One or two with boozy % and malt > hops.. .. and quickly please, getting thirsty here.
	👻 5:02pm chresti: Hi Alexandra!
	5:03pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @Chresti-Nalecow from a Polish store is usually very good. Avoid the Russian stuff, it sucks. Tastes like battery acid or something. Not sure about Ukrainian, stick with the Polish stuff, you can get 2 liter bottles of it at the Polish Supermarkets in Poland. Some US Polish stores have it. Its really good and a nice change from regular purified water.
	👻 5:04pm Jason from Houston: Hopping off to listen in the car. Cheers, good buddies. ꒰* ॢ ꈍ ◡ ꈍ ॢ꒱
	5:04pm rev. turnip druid: that said… hitting berlin soon for the first time. There will surely be much research mit doppelbocks & whatnot.
	5:06pm _Ike_: This is a highly appropriate soundtrack to southern Brooklyn's current weather, scattered looming menace with a chance of apocalypse.
	👻 5:06pm Bruce S.: I love stuff like this
	5:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...one can never quite drink Guinness on an empty stomach - cause then it won't be...
	5:08pm P-90: I’ve been told by a couple of different (quite adult) guys that they just can’t deal with vodka with fruit juice or soda because it “reminds them of every painful high school memory”
	5:08pm brainiac: @P-90: I like the sound of that; I'll have to try that on my way to the bottom.
	5:08pm tim from washington: That James Tenney was great.
	5:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Well - once you've been ill on something. That's powerful somatic conditioning.
	5:09pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: I ran low on money so no beer and PB&J for lunch this week. What was that amazing music breaking out , Fabio???
	👻 5:09pm Niall: James Tenney the spectralist? I think I picked up a title or two by him a few years ago.
	5:10pm joe mulligan: no relation to Ned, but I agree nature always needs improving
	5:12pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Polish Farmer Drink": The szarlotka (apple pie). Highball glass, 2 oz of Zubrowka vodka and apple juice, serve with ice and lemon slice. Very round, non-acidic drink. Easy on the stomach.
	5:13pm tim from washington: I'm out of line, dammit!!!!
	5:15pm Bobby: Hey FMU and Jersey, from the end of Yo La Tengo’s set at Primavera!
	5:16pm Gurldoggie: If you have a consistently logical message board, then there are statements in that message board which are unsayable using just that message board’s messages.
	5:19pm Brendan: P-90 Re coffee and beer….KBS makes a coffee stout. It’s ridiculously expensive -about 15 bucks for a four pack. But given that it’s about 14% ABV (if memory serves) and cheaper than buying a beer in a bar, I tried it once. It had a lot going on. Like having beer, dinner, dessert& coffee in a bottle. Propaganda from their website: “KBS is a big imperial stout brewed with a massive amount of coffee and chocolate and then bourbon barrel-aged to perfection. Incredibly silky and full-bodied with notes of vanilla, cocoa, roasted coffee and charred oak.”
	5:20pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: "If you have a consistently Illogical message board, then there are statements in that message board which are sayable using just that message board’s messages. " @Brenden, OMG, that sounds perfect. I LOVE coffee too.
	5:23pm tim from washington: @Brendan - Is that a Founders beer? They also had a Breakfast Stout that was pretty hearty.
	👻 5:24pm royvis: Big fan of the Founders KBS series, most are 12% ABV. Espresso may be my favorite, but by and large they are all quite tasty and potent.
	5:25pm rev. turnip druid: also: something went suddenly awry with alc.tolerance in the last few years, so one decent russian imperial and rev is done. Old age makes one a cheap date. Perhaps.
	5:25pm Miss G: Playlist looks fascinating! I will have to enjoy in the archive. Hectic here & getting my niece ready for travel to NYC (I remain here.) The weekend looks glorious (after the rain) y'all have a great one!
	5:26pm rev. turnip druid: Uncle Paul!
	5:27pm DanFA: Thought it was going to be Lost by Neurosis
	5:27pm brainiac: @Fabio: Really enjoyed your mix in the previous set. Now I'm tempted to play "Words of Paradise" under everything!
	5:27pm Gurldoggie: Yes @Wild Neil, that’s true too. Gabba gabba hey!
	👻 5:28pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: i believe that narrated section was written by Arseny Tarkovsky, Andre's father.
	5:28pm Brendan: Wild Neil, yeah beer and coffee.- go figure.Sounds odd but it was actually pretty darned good. Tim, you got it - Founders.
	5:30pm nic: wow love this!!!
	5:32pm Handy Haversack: Had to take a phone call from a canoe guy, which was very pleasant, but listening was relegated to the background. Enjoying muchly now that I can focus again. Also, I made a pair of Red Hooks for us. Cheers, m'dears! Glad to to have sat under thunder and failure with you!
	5:32pm Miss G: BBQJA do you mean <How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty>? I'm getting from search that it is Paul Bowles from "The Sheltering Sky" (I looked it up as it's so beautiful)
	👻 5:33pm Niall: I let this carrot, ginger and rhubarb ferment grow some kahm yeast and now my house smells like a dang whiskey distillery.
	5:33pm Carmichael: Well, a beer thread. I can't drink any of the "cheap" stuff like Hamms, PBR, Bud, Coors, etc ... I have to have the hops, big and bold. I occasionally post on Marty's board while I'm having an Elysian Brewing Space Dust IPA. Igerw up on the Guinness, but made a hard left turn somewhere back.
	5:35pm Carmichael: *I grew
	5:35pm Brendan: Not to get all Rush , but this sounds like the (bridge?) section in Necromancer where Neil says “Shreds of black cloud loom in overcast skies …”
	5:35pm brainiac: Arthur's brew will be waiting for you, Carm, whenever you're ready to return.
	👻 5:36pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: oh @missg you are correct. im thinking of a different song from Async. Still Life is the one with the Tarkovsky poem.
	5:37pm Carmichael: I've been out and about, brainiac. What say we hoist a flagon?
	👻 5:37pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: and it's from Out of Noise not Async. d'oh.
	5:38pm brainiac: @Carmichael: I would love to! Waiting your yesterday's Covid test results...
	5:38pm Handy Haversack: WFMU is now a safe space for Rush, Brendan. It's good. SUBDIVISIONS Carmichael, K8 loves the hoppy IPAs, but I can't stand 'em. An ESB or an English IPA with still some biscuit to it is more my sweet spot. Or a Scottish 80/-!
	5:39pm brainiac: sorry, *waiting on yesterday's results
	5:40pm brainiac: MY TEST RESULTS SHOULD BE COMING SOON
	👻 5:40pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: no, it IS from Async! "Life, Life"....not Still Life....double d'oh!!! nothing to see here.
	👻 5:41pm chris in the redwoods: all fingers crossed for failure, brainiac.
	5:41pm brainiac: I didn't even study.
	👻 5:43pm chris in the redwoods: also, mmmm.... beer. the ales have me.
	5:43pm Peter from Dover NJ: Tuned in late because I was practicing. What I've heard is brilliant. Thank you, Fabio.
	5:43pm Carmichael: Let me know, ol' buddy ol' pal.
	5:43pm Andres: Hello. I lament the dearth of short cans. Beer is less likely to get warm before you finish it.
	5:44pm brainiac: OK, will do. 🍺🍺
	5:45pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, Andres. They are a thing of beauty. Fortunately, WFMU makes beer koozies. Right, Chris?
	👻 5:45pm chris in the redwoods: two of my fav locals still have 12oz cans: Fort Point and Lagunitas. the trend for pint cans is a bit alarming in warmer temps, i agree Andres.
	5:46pm tim from washington: Thanks for the Henry Flynt, Fabio. This is so good.
	5:46pm Handy Haversack: I thought Andres meant the 8 oz. can. Like Little Kings! I see Bud in them sometimes around here.
	👻 5:46pm chris in the redwoods: right, Handy! i guess i could put Joe's coozie on one end and the wfmu coozie on the other end of a pint can.
	👻 5:47pm Bruce S.: Henry Flynt is mint,always great
	5:48pm The Count of Al Dente: I can't drink much of any alcohol anymore, so my go-to drink when I'm in NYC is Manhattan Special Espresso Soda.
	5:48pm brainiac: When I was young, I'd travel to Wisconsin to bring home a case or two of Point beer. My Chicago friends referred to it as Pour Out In Nearest Toilet.
	5:49pm Andres: 355ml vs 473ml. A quick beer is harder to pull off in the pint cans yeah. But yes, we do have the koozie technology.
	5:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Love me some Indianstylee.
	5:49pm Ciggy: Hey Failures, do you want to live longer through coffee? www.nytimes.com...
	5:51pm _Ike_: Is that about the study from the UK, where mostly just affluent people drink coffee? Correlation does not equal causation. Affluent people live longer because they're affluent.
	5:53pm _Ike_: @Count, I don't even like coffee, but a Manhattan Special soda is quite nice now and then.
	5:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Beer & Coffees generally make you Fluent. Drink Water ! ...Available & even Safe in the finer Territories of thePostApocalyptic Americas...
	👻 5:56pm Bruce S.: Fabio, thanks for another great show Enjoy your weekend everyone, thanks
	5:57pm Brendan: Booze and coffee. Good talk. And the music! Have mercy!Thanks Fabio. I think we all failed yet again. Or at least we’ve tried.
	5:57pm Handy Haversack: I am pretty much off coffee for reasons entirely unknown. Dang, wait, has this all been the Flynt? All the crazy strings? I thought it was Monypenny. That was so good! Many thanks, Fabio! Great stuff! Really nice show. O my Strong Ones, failing with you is victory on almost any planet you can name. Be well!
	5:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Fabio ~
	👻 5:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Fabio. From the "Who's Failing Now?" annals, Fabio is on the summer schedule and the Old Codger is not.
	5:58pm tim from washington: Thanks, Fabio! Today's show hit the spot for me.
	👻 5:58pm chris in the redwoods: wowsers, Fabio. thanks once again. take care, one and all. see you fine folks around here soonish...
	👻 5:58pm chresti: Thanks Fabio! Enjoyed the show!
	5:58pm The Count of Al Dente: @Ike: Ferdinando's Focacceria, a Sicilian joint on Union St. in Brooklyn has Manhattan Special on tap.
	5:59pm The Count of Al Dente: Fabio and kin, ciao until next time!
	5:59pm Carmichael: Thanks Fab.
	5:59pm _Ike_: Woah! Is it better on tap than in a bottle?!?
	6:00pm brainiac: Thanks Fabio, and cheers to all ye fellow failures
	6:00pm bleubombersune: Fabio Super music Thanks
	👻 6:00pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: great show
	👻 6:00pm Niall: BUCKFAST
	6:00pm listener james from westwood: Killer diller as always, Fabio; thanks!
	6:00pm Handy Haversack: Don't do it, Niall!
	6:00pm katharsis: Bye
	6:05pm RB: testing 1, 2, 3
