	9:08am joshjoshjosh: Already a great show Joe
	9:09am Krys O.: Greetings!
	9:09am listener james from westwood: This Peanuts tune, lesser heard than the Xmas one, is so calming. Works year round but especially in fall.
	9:09am JackO: Nothing but sincerity as far as the eye can see.
	9:10am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Guaraldi GWAR Halloween Tour
	9:10am love2laf: Yip yip! Great start to the show and the first cup of Joe. Good morning all, hope your Monday unfolds as smoothly as possible.
	9:11am berkshires matty: this is the PERFECT waiting in the Safelite repair shop wait room antidote
	9:12am greg from montreal: Good morning all
	9:12am JackO: Chet Baker radiates autumnal melancholy. I am never not moved by his sadness.
	9:15am TerrDE: Apparently, the Younger Dryas Comet event that killed everyone and everything over 50 lbs 12,000 years ago at this time of year in North America is the deep origin of Day of the Dead, Halloween etc. which appears in cultures worldwide
	9:15am Brainiac from Neuron 3: Love the Vince Guaraldi Trio.
	9:15am Faye: really love this set Joe!
	9:16am PaulRobeson1922: Yip yip yip!
	9:17am Joe McG: Hi, Faye and everyone! A bit of autumnal mood music to begin today's program. Welcome to the show!
	9:17am JackO: TerrDE: This is a new one for me. I was unfamiliar with this hypothesis. Whether true or not, it is an interesting idea.
	9:17am Brainiac from Neuron 3: Detroit Bags!
	9:18am JackO: Seriously good set. It is deeply relaxing.
	9:19am rx scabin: Good morning, Joe and Everyone. Happy Hallow'een.
	9:19am PaulRobeson1922: Mariano and l r Looking for volunteers to take a boat ride to Paris. Anybody? The only stipulation is you must bring yer own pair of digging gloves
	👻 9:20am Yetz: would love to know what evidence there is for the Comet/Halloween connection, or if it's just an interesting speculation. Seems to me that arrival of fall is enough to make people think about death and the ending of things.
	9:22am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Samhain is one of the cross-quarter Sabbats in the middle of each technical~astronomical seasons. Opposite of Beltane ~ MayDay on the Wheel of the Year. Not to deny this comet - tho I've never heard of this...
	9:23am JG: Jerry Lee lewis did a wonderful verion of Autumn leaves
	9:23am Danny C: Nice set, Joe. Vince Guraldi is not recognized enough.
	9:23am dday: Nat Cole soooo smoooooth
	9:23am mariano: There's another really haunting Nat King Cole song, a version of "Nature Boy" with a very small combo that I like better than the album version. www.youtube.com...
	9:23am berkshires matty: srsly, thanks for the refuge from the holiday onslaught. just unending this year seems
	👻 9:23am Yetz: Yikes, just looked up 'Haloween comet' and found this www.universetoday.com...
	9:24am Joe McG: @JG: How many times does he mention his name in it? ;)
	👻 9:24am Yetz: (it already passed the earth 6 years ago so don't worry ...)
	9:25am mariano: Joe McG: Lol! Are the lyrics "Jerry Lee, oh, Jerry Lee..."
	9:25am JG: I hear you Joe, but the man did have a sensitive side if you can believe it. He straight up sings it, beautifully, too.
	9:26am Greg from ZONE 5: Happy Halloween, Joe & all!
	9:27am JackO: Yetz: Also you can't view Dia de los Muertos and Halloween (inc. All Souls Day and All Saints Day) as evolving independently. Dia de los Muertos maps older Mexican American traditions on top of Christianized holidays.
	9:27am Joe McG: @JG: I'm just joshing, I love Jerry Lee. I esp. like his country stuff.
	9:27am TerrDE: Jacko, search "Randall Carlson Halloween" on youtube he covers it....Randall has 150 hours of videos about the Comet strike/air burst that melted the miles thick glaciers which now has left the Taurid meteor stream as a grim reminder
	9:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ColtraneHartman. Game Over.
	9:29am JackO: TerrDE: I certainly will. I love speculative ideas.
	👻 9:29am Yetz: Randall Carlson looks like a bit of a charlatan/huckster
	9:29am PKNY: @RR63 - agreed, Mr Hartman and the classic quartet go together like aural PB&J
	👻 9:29am Webhamster Henry: H Surface Noise enthusiasts. It's certainly Autumn-y here in the Mid Hudson.
	9:29am PaulRobeson1922: That’s unture about 12,000 year old meteor- Geology is about Deep Time- the is no evidence of a recent metro strike like that- ice cores point to the earth being hotter & colder alternatively At different times in our past- get yerself a good TEXTBOOK ON HISTORICAL GEOLOGY- & people we only have 1 volunteer and 3 shovels!!!!! Jezus
	👻 9:30am Yetz: "Sacred geometry" is a bit of a red flag
	9:30am PaulRobeson1922: U wana help us? yetz?
	9:30am PaulRobeson1922: Free boat ride to Paris…
	👻 9:30am Webhamster Henry: How about some Hellraising on this tail end of the fundraiser?
	9:31am katharsis: Good morning Joe, others, happy Halloween
	👻 9:31am Yetz: "Chronological evidence fails to support claim of an isochronous widespread layer of cosmic impact indicators dated to 12,800 years ago" - www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov...
	9:31am mariano: I love Jerry Lee too, for the record, was just kidding. He's a fellow Loozianan, can't hate him too much.
	9:31am PaulRobeson1922: But what to do with the bones of Jim Morrison? Once we get there, Yetz…
	9:31am JG: @Joe yep, the country and the rock n roll
	9:31am PaulRobeson1922: What to do what to do
	9:32am Peter from Boonton formerly Dover NJ: Some nice sounds coming outta the radio.
	👻 9:32am yerfriendpaul: Such a great tune. That voice!!
	9:33am PaulRobeson1922: Happpy Haloweeen! Now, who wants a free boat ride to paris with only 1 stipulation?
	9:33am JackO: Yetz: Thanks! Sounded a little too good to be true.
	👻 9:34am Webhamster Henry: Here's my favorite Autumn song: It's Autumn at the Automat: jhhl.net...
	9:34am dday: @PR1922@9:31: Bone Broth ??? ;)
	9:35am MplsCoco: Morning Joe! ❤️🎃
	👻 9:35am Yetz: (It's also sort of implausable that we'd be able to determine the time of year that a meteor strike happened - geological dating just isn't that precise!)
	9:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Don't know what Sacred Geometry has to do with Velikovsky sort of comet theories. ...Also - reincarnation doesn't have to be ...but the Beat Goes On.
	9:37am JackO: Now, the idea that human consciousness underwent a quantum leap in evolution because our hominid ancestors ate psychedelic mushrooms must be absolutely true! And I want to go a step further and suggest those mushrooms are an alien fungus much like The Green Slime.
	9:37am Strandlund: Such a beautiful set, Joe!!
	9:38am JackO: And that fungus landed on earth sometime in the fall.
	9:38am TerrDE: Yetz, that may from a response paper where they didn't use small enough filters to find what they were looking for. The " Comet Research Group" is a many fields of expertise group investigating . Scientists from different fielfs eorking together.
	👻 9:39am DjLorraine: The first set was so good i didn't want to disrupt it with my presence
	9:39am rx scabin: That Golden Autumn Light. Not odd, Joe.
	9:41am Greg from ZONE 5: Don’t you disparage the Spooky Boo, McGasko!
	9:41am melinda: I love autumn too.
	9:42am JackO: TerrDE: But isn't far more plausible to think that the traditions that arose around Halloween arose because of the coming of winter and the death of vegetation and bitter cold and failing sunlight? That it was seasonal and not some astronomical phenomenon.
	👻 9:42am Yetz: "Comet Research Group" looks a little fringey to me, but I'm gonna drop it, TerrDE. Happy Halloween!
	9:43am melinda: The daytime temperatures here in NC feel less autumny than what I grew accustomed to up north but still beautiful.
	9:43am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...think we should stop calling them Theories actually - when they barely rise to Hypotheses. Seasons are Astronomical - not to obscure your point.
	9:44am dday: there's still many humans saying the earth is flat. So much for humans consciously evolving (in some ways) :)
	9:44am Handy Haversack: melinda, unfortunately, it's the same here in NYC as well.
	9:44am JackO: Yes, they are. I should have been more specific and said a comet impact.
	9:46am dday: I'll take the warmer side of Autumn temps into mid Nov. thank you. Heating costs this year are twice what they were last year & it's always 8 - 10 degrees colder here in Pike Co. , PA
	9:46am melinda: @Handy I'm learning to roll with it and appreciate the ease of mild weather.

	9:47am JackO: Agreed. Theories require chains of solid evidence which this does not have. It is just speculation and all speculation is bullshit until you can truly back it up.
	9:48am dday: there was a guy in Lodi,NJ who used to set up a Halloween display on his lawn with a motorized table that tilted back & forth with a Frankenstein on it and some other excellent decorations. Many years ago. Near where my guitar teacher was located. Good old Frank Malz.
	9:50am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: As for McKenna & the Stoned Ape thing - I'm with him as far as our ancestors in deeper PreHistory were out there in the forests & jungles where the plants & fungi were. & being high on them is perhaps in fact our Natural State after all. & even that this is profound for Society. As for Fungi being Aliens - this seems Metaphor ? The fact (?) that Fungi are genetically closer to us than to Plants is almost more than I can fathom - tho our co-evolution is apparent...
	9:50am TDK60: Love the instrumental reggae. \| Happy birthday, protest/folk singer Tom Paxton!
	9:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Actually consider a few of those B-Days notable this week ...tho I am biased as a ♏︎Scorpio :) ...I mean - I agree with Terence that the Psychedelic Experience is such an extraordinary & profound thing - it's amazing it's not considered more...
	9:54am JackO: Revolution Rabbit: I wasn't being serious about the fungus thing. I was just playing around with idea of speculation. How it is easy to become convinced of an idea just because it appeals to you on some level.
	9:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: JackO sure.
	9:55am Regnad Kcin: Happy Halloween everyone!
	9:56am Regnad Kcin: One of my favorite shows. Thanks Joe!
	9:56am Dano59: Halloween has several traditions in common with the early Celtic pagan/Gaelic festival Samhain. ...and the Great Pumpkin soundtrack wasn't released until 2018; it's sourced from the TV special (with sound effects), alas, not original masters. In case you are tempted by any of the pricey vinyl versions.
	👻 9:57am Karl Ward: Good morning, I am enjoying these surfaces
	9:58am JackO: Revolution Rabbit: There was a speculation going around at one time that Venus Fly Traps were of alien origin because of their location in the Carolinas and an ancient celestial impact that happened there at one time. Fun idea but totally debunked.
	10:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's from 'All Hallow's Eve' - the night before All Souls - the day before All Saints. Of course when Xianity spread out (to euphemism the militant imperialist means this generally took) it superimposed itself over previous existing Traditions.
	👻 10:01am Karl Ward: I hope everyone is staying healthy. It seems like every non-COVID coldlike illness is stopping by my house first.
	👻 10:01am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Morning all. Happy Halloween! Remember that if you give out full-sized candy bars today, your sins will be forgiven by the Great Pumpkin! 🎃🎃🎃
	10:01am katharsis: Autumn can provoke wanderlust though not so much this year. Flight/freeze? The seasons still change here it’s just subtle and confusing because fall is the planting season and more tourists come in the winter. I still walk the beach singing boys of summer. Aliens and mushrooms would be McKenna theory as far as I know. I am dressing today some kind of a black and white outfit with old Niki Barr band t shirts.
	10:02am listener james from westwood: Aha! ABC!
	10:03am Joe McG: Thanks, kciN, glad you enjoy!
	10:03am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...sorry: All Saints generally 1st Nov., All Souls the 2nd.
	10:03am radioronan: 100% agree with autumn sentiments, Joe. Best season to feel alive when everything around is dying and hibernating..I actually get giddy about it every year..That said I do like the Halloween and Dia de los Muertos celebrations..
	10:03am Brainiac from Neuron 3: Nov. 1st Atlas 5 • JPSS 2 & LOFTID Launch time: 0925 GMT (5:25 a.m. EDT; 2:25 a.m. PDT) Launch site: SLC-3E, Vandenberg Space Force Base, California A United Launch Alliance Atlas 5 rocket, designated AV-098, will launch Joint Polar Satellite System 2, or JPSS 2, polar-orbiting weather satellite for NASA and NOAA. Built by Northrop Grumman, JPSS 2 will provide global weather observations for medium and long-term forecasts. The Atlas 5 will also launch the Low-Earth Orbit Flight Test of an Inflatable Decelerator, or LOFTID, re-entry aeroshell vehicle on a test flight. LOFTID is a joint project between NASA and ULA. The rocket will fly in the 401 vehicle configuration with a four-meter fairing, no solid rocket boosters, and a single-engine Centaur upper stage. Delayed from Sept. 30 due to anomaly during testing of the satellite’s Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite, or VIIRS, instrument. Nov. 1st Falcon Heavy • USSF 44 Launch time: 1340 GMT (9:40 a.m. EDT) Launch site: LC-39A, Kennedy Space Center, Florida A SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket will launch the USSF 44 mission for the U.S. Space Force. The mission is expected to deploy two spacecraft payloads directly into geosynchronous orbit, one of which is the military’s TETRA 1 microsatellite. The Falcon Heavy’s two side boosters will land at Landing Zone 1 and 2 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, and the core stage will be expended. Delayed from late 2020, 2nd quarter of 2021, July 2021, and October 2021 by payload issues. Delayed from early 2022 and June 2022. Delayed from Oct. 28.

The Falcon 9’s first stage booster will land on a drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean. .
	10:03am dale: great album.
	👻 10:04am Brian in UK: ABC reminds me of being in hospital with a broken leg in 1982. They were on the ward radio regularly.
	10:05am love2laf: Got the fire in the woodstove started to take the chill of autumn out of the house. Leaves are down here, except the oak, of course, oaks are the unkindest tree, dropping leaves from fall to winter to spring. Not wanderlust here, more hygge / cozy time. The music is easing me into the work week perfectly Joe, the surface noise is perfect.
	10:05am StringOFperils: Why does it have to be Space Force? Why does it always have to be force? When going to new places, always lead with force, and let them know that the force is coming for them. Yeeesh.
	10:06am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: More interesting Arrangement ~ Production than I might credit ABC with.
	10:06am Kaper79: Martin Fry had such a great voice.
	👻 10:07am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Loving this set; waking me up gently, easing me into the work week. A pastured chicken from White Oak Pastures is finally defrosted, doing a quick grocery run after work to make classic poule en cocotte....and if you are looking for a source of regeneratively-farmed meat/poultry, I do like White Oak Pastures.
	10:07am Joe McG: @Brian: Sorry to hear that! A better album to have a broken heart to than a broken leg.
	10:08am katharsis: As I understand Samhain was also traditionally a slaughter time of older animals before the winter-so another death and blood association.
	10:11am StringOFperils: I prefer Space Imperium. And bigger epaulettes on the uniform. Lose the name tags too.
	10:11am WoodsOfMaine: I love the fall. There's a certain beauty in seeing all the trees stripped of leaves. Fall weather is late on arriving this year. We haven't even had a killing frost yet and yesterday it was 66 degrees!
	10:12am luka: love this Hatchie tune, and everything i’ve heard from them tbh. good morning!
	10:13am Dano59: '82 music fit right in with '22 music. Real emotion through electronics. Gary Numan on the Moog synthesizer in 2020: “the only instrument where … the sound itself can create the atmosphere that you’re after. And so, in that respect, I always thought it was the most human instrument of all, that has ever been."
	10:14am katharsis: After the storm the trees lost most leaves and the temperature dropped so it was sort of autumnal.
	10:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Like every SciFi Author ever didn't utilize & illustrate the meaning of Humanity spreading its garbage & f-ups from right here on Earth into the new frontiers of Outer Space as well. Props to Shatner @ least for articulating the Overview Effect.
	10:16am rx scabin: I would be willing to wager that I live in the best place for Autumn.
	10:18am Dano59: I'm taking advantage of the late warm weather and finally going to check out Kinzua Bridge and a nearby dark-skies site in Pa. Also meeting a new person over coffee this week.
	10:18am love2laf: @rx scabin I feel the same about where I live, the golden encore of the tamaracks is a stunning follow up to the gorgeous colours that have finished.
	10:19am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wull here North NewEngland we propagate the PR we have some copyright on Autumn (we don't) - but I'd like it more if it wasn't followed by the inevitable prolonged atrocity of what Winter always is here ...I may be in the wrong place.
	10:19am katharsis: growing up nj it would sometimes snow before Halloween. Just a dusting.
	10:20am βrian: I lived in VT during my missing years, and I found the foliage there to be similar to that of Michigan. More topographical relief, though, which made for great viewing.
	👻 10:22am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: @katharsis I'll never forget that in my sophomore year of college upstate, it snowed before Labor Day Weekend (classes had started the third week in August). And not just a dusting; a proper 6" or so of wet, driving snow.
	10:23am JeremyB: Greedy but practical - what a lyric!
	10:23am Sam: Is wishing for more wishes against the rules?
	10:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...but the first slush is always the most beautiful...
	10:24am Sam: Most depressing birthday song ever!
	10:24am Meesalikeu: @sam yes. yes it is. any genie will tell you that right off.
	10:25am trailrunnah: Wait, wait a second here…
	10:25am StringOFperils: Almost November and the roses are blooming down the street like it's July. It signals something seriously broken but I'm enjoying the extended summers.
	10:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Autumn has always meant FolkRawk to me. Not this year yet @ all somehow ...JoeMcG might be my man here...
	10:27am Jason from Houston: 62F in the petro metro on the way to 78F. Gooooood morning.
	10:27am Handy Haversack: I can't believe it's still Carpet Burn ...
	10:27am trailrunnah: I think I saw a dinosaur egg on the trail the other day.
	10:27am βrian: We tell Little Human to put half her candy out for the Switch Witch in exchange for a wish. "You may not wish for more candy!"
	10:27am 𝕵𝖆𝖘𝖔𝖓 𝖋𝖗𝖔𝖒 𝕲𝖍𝖔𝖚𝖑𝖘𝖙𝖔𝖓: Whoops I forgot to keep it spooky.
	10:28am UncleMarty: @ Mee - How about wishing for more Genies?
	10:29am katharsis: @threemoons “sometimes it snows in April…” 1982
	10:29am βrian: Looks fine to me.
	10:29am Meesalikeu: @Revolution Rabbit Nov63 the worst thing about New England’s patent on Autumn is it’s spawn of thee worst catch phrase of all time - leaf peeping. i’ll say no more while you all bask in yuppie horror.
	10:29am Handy Haversack: Hm. Website loads here.
	10:29am Crownless Gander: It's working fine for me!
	10:29am StringOFperils: I'm listening on the website, with no outages at all
	10:29am JeremyB: I'm streaming it fine and website works!
	10:29am Dean: Website is live from where I sit.
	👻 10:29am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: @Jason how did you change your name font?
	10:29am WoodsOfMaine: Popup still workin' just fine.
	10:29am oshiwoshi: ditto
	10:29am morphe': I am listening on/from the website???
	10:29am NorwegianChris: Stream and webiste are fine across the Atlantic
	👻 10:30am Webhamster Henry: The website and stream are fine.
	10:30am Lizardner Dave !: I'm still seeing it...maybe it's the studio computer that's down.
	10:30am Spikey BXL: works fine from Belgium as well
	10:30am JeremyB: working on the other computer too!
	10:30am Tony from Chicago: Still listening on the internet. Internet is working on our end.
	10:30am KWilde: I’m listening on my phone and can see your playlist
	10:30am rx scabin: App worked throughout.
	10:30am trailrunnah: I had no idea Carpet Burn was so versatile..
	👻 10:30am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Stream working fine over my Jeff Bezos Spying Device.
	10:30am Handy Haversack: Now I'm scared Joe means the real website went down but none of us are cool enough to actually know about it and so are always just hanging out on this poor substitute, thinking we're cool.
	👻 10:30am Webhamster Henry: Kenzo is haunting you.
	10:30am TerrDE: app is normal
	10:30am katharsis: @dano hope it’s a lovely coffee meeting.

	10:42am Dano59: speaking of this day marking time: Xmas stuff has been in stores since ~Oct. 1, and I just started compiling my Bummer Christmas playlist for this year.
	👻 10:42am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @Jason thank you
	10:43am morphe': For the North East folks on the list and everyone else, [folks writing here of leaves and winter weather]just revisited this story of the guy [Christopher Knight] who lived in the Maine woods for 27 years meeting only one person all that time and the only words he spoke to anyone ="Hi"... The article has Hermit in the title, but he did not want to be called a hermit .. Fascinating story and he was/is indeed quite intelligent and witty ..
	10:43am steveo: apparently there is a yarn store in Mt Kisco called Pick up Every Stitch
	👻 10:43am chresti: Hi Joe and surfies! I'm LOOK-in' through my window at the tennis courts.
	10:43am Dano59: ... is it being a buzzkill to remind ppl that this song is about paranoia, not witchcraft?
	10:43am morphe': Forgot the link: https://www.gq.com/story/the-last-true-hermit
	10:44am Handy Haversack: Play this one at 16, Joe! Or 78 ... if you DARE!
	👻 10:44am Hughie Considine: Nice, @Stevo, I bet their custom-spun Mellow Yellow yarn is a hot seller.
	10:45am Meesalikeu: @stevo my spouse used to get her hair cut at curl up & dye
	👻 10:45am ȶɦʀɛɛʍօօռֆ 🌛🌕🌜: And here we are, thank you!
	10:45am TDK60: "Pick up every stitch." Never thought about it; it means what?
	10:45am Dano59: favorite small-town upstate NY business name: Doggy Style Pet Grooming
	10:45am WoodsOfMaine: @morphe': That really was an amazing story. There's a book about it too.
	👻 10:46am ·.¸¸.·♩♪♫ 𝕋𝔥ⓇⒺᵉϻ𝐎ØⓝⓈ ♫♪♩·.¸¸.· 🌛🌕🌜: OK there goes my concentration today....LOL
	10:46am StringOFperils: Knitting is witchcraft.
	10:46am Handy Haversack: They're all on acorns. You can just tell.
	10:46am oshiwoshi: Chubukos = Sandra Phillips Miss FatBack in devilish chipmunk transmogrification
	10:46am Greg from ZONE 5: This explains how Joe got the nickname "The Funky Exorcist."
	👻 10:47am chresti: Fancy font Threemoons!
	10:47am Meesalikeu: @morphe’ well at least now we know what happened to that lesser known brady bunch kid after the show ended
	10:48am Joe McG: @Greg: Ha ha ha!
	👻 10:48am chresti: Cleaning is witchcraft too, StringO
	10:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'DoggyStyle' - hehe...
	10:48am p/b: Love those Chubukos - Joe who was the horn player? Got some JBs going on
	10:48am WoodsOfMaine: @Dano59: For a time there was a Pho restaurant in Keene, NH called Pho Keene Great.
	10:49am mariano: I live just down the road from Marie Laveau's old house.
	10:49am StringOFperils: I do a lot of cleaning around here, but I feel more like a morlock than a warlock
	10:51am StringOFperils: Ever ask the voodoo queen for a favor, mariano? A sixer of JAX could change your luck.
	👻 10:52am chresti: Cool mariano! Is it occupied?
	10:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Covered with chalk Xs ?
	10:55am βrian: @WoodsOfMaine: In Madison it was "Pho King Good."
	10:55am Handy Haversack: I must say, Woodhead is taking the news rather well.

	10:57am rx scabin: Fabulous, Joe. I must go.
	10:57am WoodsOfMaine: @Brian: What state?
	👻 10:58am ·.¸¸.·♩♪♫ 𝕋𝔥ⓇⒺᵉϻ𝐎ØⓝⓈ ♫♪♩·.¸¸.· 🌛🌕🌜: When I clean my place it feels more like an exorcism.
	10:58am βrian: Why, Wisconsin, of course.
	10:58am Handy Haversack: Another bit of disturbing news cheerfully delivered!
	10:59am Krys O.: This sounds like Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich's Last Night in Soho.
	10:59am mariano: I'll make a burnt offering, StringOfPerils! chresti: Well, the truth, as is so often the case, is a little more mundane. The original house burned down and was rebuilt in the early 1900s. I think it's apartments now, maybe Airbnb but I'm not sure. Still a very nice house, on the 1000 block of St. Anne St. ap.rdcpix.com...
	👻 11:01am chresti: Ah looks nice, did witch hunters burn it down?
	👻 11:02am chresti: 3moons I just made that up about the cleaning.
	11:02am mariano: I don't think witch hunters would last too long down here, chresti. Especially not in those days!
	11:03am spacecadet: thanks for the tunes this morning!
	11:03am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Her grave is probly covered in chalk Xs ...but nevermind. Hopefully as little of that as possible got submerged with Katrina.
	👻 11:04am chresti: A safe haven for witches then, mariano
	11:04am StringOFperils: The rain and the sun and the storms revise NOLA slowly but surely all the time. Even the tomb is ephemeral there.
	👻 11:05am Stephen from Glasgow: This song was on a compilation on the BBC recently. I’d never heard it before.
	11:06am Dano59: oooh I remember 'The Witch'! a classic AM rock song.
	11:08am Saltonstall: Soul Dracula by Hot Blood
	11:08am Sam: As hedonists and creatures of the night, vampires naturally love disco.
	11:10am mariano: Sam: Remember that disco vampire movie with George Hamilton, Love at First Bite?
	11:10am Dano59: Half Japanese, masters of the monster song, have a not-very-musical scary-sounding Halloween single.
	11:10am Sam: I never saw it
	11:10am Handy Haversack: Mariano: I remember!
	👻 11:11am chresti: The Upsetters have some nice vampire songs.
	11:11am adampsyche: got my pledge in joe!
	11:11am Dano59: btw thank you, Joe, for clearing up my pledge icon issues.
	11:12am love2laf: Pledge for Joe's hump!
	11:12am Glistener MW: Happy Halloween / Hellraiser, all! 👹 pledge pledge pledge! @ pledge.WFMU.org incredible set, Joe! I love/collect Halloween singles and had never heard a lot of those 🎃
	11:12am PMD: You don’t have control over your goals??
	11:15am Handy Haversack: Becky's pschycobilly premium from this time around is so so so good.
	11:15am Greg from ZONE 5: There were a lot of great premiums this year, but HTRG's was my personal fav.
	11:16am Greg from ZONE 5: Great minds, Handy!
	11:17am Handy Haversack: Word up, Greg!
	11:17am Sam: There is so much doowop and surf Halloween stuff from the 50's and 60's, it's nuts.
	11:20am Marie: Hey Joe, really enjoying the show. Thanks!
	11:27am 𝔍𝔞𝔰𝔬𝔫 𝔣𝔯𝔬𝔪 𝔊𝔥𝔬𝔲𝔩𝔰𝔱𝔬𝔫: Whooooooa... Delightful instrumentation.
	11:28am jong: Great! 👍
	👻 11:29am Webhamster Henry: That 2022 Gaylord premium disc is amazing!
	11:29am maria collins: Merry Xmas everyone !!!
	11:29am 𝔍𝔞𝔰𝔬𝔫 𝔣𝔯𝔬𝔪 𝔊𝔥𝔬𝔲𝔩𝔰𝔱𝔬𝔫: Speaking of instrumentation! Too many guitars! LOL
	11:30am mark in helsinki: It's You Really Got Me in Finnish....! thanks for your show, Joe. It brightens my final hours at work every Monday afternoon!
	11:31am Jason D: This set probably a good time to say thanks to whoever made sure the premium downloads all had nice well-behaved ID3 tags, so, er, thanks!
	11:31am StringOFperils: Actually less cheesy than the original!
	11:32am PaulRobeson1922: WOW!
	11:32am Dano59: I have the last Kinky Girls and it's awesome. Gaylord's 2015 Working Out the Kinks is also a get.
	11:32am PaulRobeson1922: Never My Love is one of the greatest songs of all time
	11:33am Joe McG: Hello, Helsinki!
	11:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Agree - Association not cheesy. Maybe other things.
	11:33am Dano59: hmm I don't remember getting the downloads, only that most of the actual CDs this year were unlabeled/unprinted.
	11:33am 𝔍𝔞𝔰𝔬𝔫 𝔣𝔯𝔬𝔪 𝔊𝔥𝔬𝔲𝔩𝔰𝔱𝔬𝔫: Niiiiiiiice...
	11:34am Asheville Jon: hahahaha, 'Him'. ultra cheese!
	11:34am Dano59: Therese taps into crazy radio memories
	11:34am listener james from westwood: Whoa, have not heard this Holmes in for freakin' ever! Makes sense Therese had the thought to put it on one of her comps!
	11:35am Kotzwinkled: Anyone see that recent NYTimes profile on Rupert Holmes? Odd guy!
	11:35am Roberto: My daughter sang a Rupert Holmes composition from Edwin Drood a few years ago.
	11:35am Krys O.: Nice sitar cover. And nice segue. The sitar covers reminds me of this Jackie Gleason album I own: www.discogs.com...
	11:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Velveeta aerosol 1970s cheese.
	11:35am Thin Slice: I heard somewhere that this was the final #1 song of the 1970s.
	11:35am Joe McG: @Dano: Our CD printer is broken. :( (You could choose CDs or downloads, we didn't do both for the same one.)
	11:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...but in that not charmless...
	11:36am TerrDE: unfortunately for Rupert the Him was a now insane Coal Miner who developed a taste for human flesh
	11:36am Dano59: oh, that explains it! thx Joe
	11:36am Joe B: Him definitely the scariest song we will hear this Halloween!
	11:36am Roberto: Given name: David Goldstein. Rupert Holmes, my tuchas!
	👻 11:36am tadpoles: This Rupert Holmes song makes me smile for some reason.
	11:37am Dano59: Rupert Holmes also was the writer of 'Timothy'? right?
	11:37am Joe B: @thin slice - it was not a number one song though
	11:38am Roberto: Correct, Dano! Perhaps the only hit song about cannibalism.
	11:38am TerrDE: Dano, yep
	11:38am brycepunk1: This is fantastic! I haven't heard this since I was like 8 years old. Forgot all about it
	11:38am Thin Slice: And Wikipedia tells me it wasn't released until 1980. So I was lied to.
	11:39am Joe McG: Only thing better than rock and disco separately is rock and disco together. Rosco!
	11:39am efd: Proud that my premium is part of this awesome set! Thanks Joe!
	11:39am crateslinger: omg
	11:40am Joe B: @thin slice - you were on the right track - pina colada by holmes was the final no. 1 of the 70s
	11:40am TerrDE: Joe, Pseudo Echo is in that category
	11:41am Krys O.: That's what Rosco means? I thought it had to do with the stage lighting company.
	11:41am Joe McG: @efd: Really enjoyed your premium this year, Evan!
	👻 11:41am chresti: Only $681 to go!
	11:41am Carmichael: Heya Joe and gang, let's get treated and not tricked. Evan, I am still working diligently at naming that unnamed ska song you played. Should have an answer in a few years ...
	11:43am efd: @Carmichael I appreciate your efforts!
	👻 11:43am chresti: I need to hear the unnamed ska song. What label was it on?
	11:43am katharsis: Lunch date canceled. That’s ok. We can always party on our own.
	11:44am AndyIowa: Happy Halloween, Joe and fellow ‘FMUers! Pitching in some extra bones to the Hellraiser this morning to help keep WFMU undead! AndyIowa in Brooklyn
	11:46am Carmichael: unknown label, chresti. unknown everything ... Here's the link (it's at 1:33):www.wfmu.org...
	11:46am efd: @chresti No label, it was on a mix tape someone had from the early ‘80s. I played it on my show twice, shared it with some serious music heads, sent it around on our internal WFMU email list… no one knows it.
	11:47am efd: And it’s not Shazam-able, nor do the lyrics return anything useful on internet searches.
	👻 11:48am Yetz: honestly the song is a bit forgettable, that's why everyone forgot it!
	11:48am Handy Haversack: Let that freak flag fly, Lee!
	👻 11:48am chresti: I'll give it a listen after work, thanks Carmichael and Evan! I listened to a lot of Jamaican music in the 80s and 90s
	11:49am TerrDE: where's Nancy ?
	11:49am Dano59: I love a good mixtape mystery.
	11:50am Dano59: sorry to hear that, @kath. hope mine goes as planned
	👻 11:51am chresti: I used to record the Reggae Beat on KCRW in the 80s.
	11:51am efd: @chresti it’s really more of a “ska” song, imho, not authentic. Very likely English.
	11:51am StringOFperils: Unknown ska track has me stumped. Not a bad period-piece too. Very London-ish
	11:52am Thin Slice: Thanks Joe B @11:40!
	👻 11:52am chresti: Ah, maybe a cover? @Evan
	11:52am dug: is it thursday night already? damn that was quick
	👻 11:53am 12539: Thanks, Joe!
	👻 11:53am chresti: Thanks Joe!
	11:54am Rich in Bristol: What tune was that? Absolutely wonderful!
	11:54am listener 126464: Mixtape Mysteries #7 - The Second Wave Ska Stumper
	11:54am Krys O.: Thanks, Joe!
	11:54am listener 126464: Thanks Joe, loved the show!
	👻 11:54am Brian in UK: Great show as ever, Joe.
	11:55am efd: @chresti Could be! One of the challenges in identifying it is that there’s no discernible chorus or title. Sounds similar to Madness but I’m pretty sure it’s not them. My guess is it’s a non-LP B-side that was never released later on, hence the lack of Shazam-ability.
	👻 11:55am Stephen from Glasgow: Thanks again, Joe.
	11:56am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Joe! A Premium Show, in more ways than one! Stay on top, Surfactants!
	11:56am katharsis: Thanks joe and all. And the wheel spins. We are between the worlds.
	11:56am radioronan: Thanks, Joe!
	11:57am Carmichael: Thank you Joe #1!
	👻 11:57am Susan & Bryan: thanks always Joe for an amazing show
	👻 11:57am Ken From Hyde Park: Thank you, Joe. A veritable bag of treats for us today. I hope nobody soaps the windows at 43 Montgomery Street!
	👻 11:57am nortonjutland: thanks Joe!
	11:58am Paxwell silver hammer: Excellent Halloween show Joe McGasoline. That was my Halloween name 4u, maybe you have a better one I don't know, but that was the best I could come up with Johnny one the spot.
	11:58am TDK60: Thanks, Joe.
	11:59am Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks Joe!
	👻 12:00pm Webhamster Henry: Booooo! Thanks Joe! Nice Treat!
	12:01pm StringOFperils: Thanks Joe!

	9:08am Handy Haversack: Full marks, Brian!
	9:08am joshjoshjosh: Already a great show Joe
	9:09am Krys O.: Greetings!
	9:09am listener james from westwood: This Peanuts tune, lesser heard than the Xmas one, is so calming. Works year round but especially in fall.
	9:09am JackO: Nothing but sincerity as far as the eye can see.
	9:10am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Guaraldi GWAR Halloween Tour
	9:10am love2laf: Yip yip! Great start to the show and the first cup of Joe. Good morning all, hope your Monday unfolds as smoothly as possible.
	9:11am berkshires matty: this is the PERFECT waiting in the Safelite repair shop wait room antidote
	9:12am greg from montreal: Good morning all
	9:12am JackO: Chet Baker radiates autumnal melancholy. I am never not moved by his sadness.
	9:15am TerrDE: Apparently, the Younger Dryas Comet event that killed everyone and everything over 50 lbs 12,000 years ago at this time of year in North America is the deep origin of Day of the Dead, Halloween etc. which appears in cultures worldwide
	9:15am Brainiac from Neuron 3: Love the Vince Guaraldi Trio.
	9:15am Faye: really love this set Joe!
	9:16am PaulRobeson1922: Yip yip yip!
	9:17am Joe McG: Hi, Faye and everyone! A bit of autumnal mood music to begin today's program. Welcome to the show!
	9:17am JackO: TerrDE: This is a new one for me. I was unfamiliar with this hypothesis. Whether true or not, it is an interesting idea.
	9:17am Brainiac from Neuron 3: Detroit Bags!
	9:18am JackO: Seriously good set. It is deeply relaxing.
	9:19am rx scabin: Good morning, Joe and Everyone. Happy Hallow'een.
	9:19am PaulRobeson1922: Mariano and l r Looking for volunteers to take a boat ride to Paris. Anybody? The only stipulation is you must bring yer own pair of digging gloves
	👻 9:20am Yetz: would love to know what evidence there is for the Comet/Halloween connection, or if it's just an interesting speculation. Seems to me that arrival of fall is enough to make people think about death and the ending of things.
	9:22am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Samhain is one of the cross-quarter Sabbats in the middle of each technical~astronomical seasons. Opposite of Beltane ~ MayDay on the Wheel of the Year. Not to deny this comet - tho I've never heard of this...
	9:23am JG: Jerry Lee lewis did a wonderful verion of Autumn leaves
	9:23am Danny C: Nice set, Joe. Vince Guraldi is not recognized enough.
	9:23am dday: Nat Cole soooo smoooooth
	9:23am mariano: There's another really haunting Nat King Cole song, a version of "Nature Boy" with a very small combo that I like better than the album version. www.youtube.com...
	9:23am berkshires matty: srsly, thanks for the refuge from the holiday onslaught. just unending this year seems
	👻 9:23am Yetz: Yikes, just looked up 'Haloween comet' and found this www.universetoday.com...
	9:24am Joe McG: @JG: How many times does he mention his name in it? ;)
	👻 9:24am Yetz: (it already passed the earth 6 years ago so don't worry ...)
	9:25am mariano: Joe McG: Lol! Are the lyrics "Jerry Lee, oh, Jerry Lee..."
	9:25am JG: I hear you Joe, but the man did have a sensitive side if you can believe it. He straight up sings it, beautifully, too.
	9:26am Greg from ZONE 5: Happy Halloween, Joe & all!
	9:27am JackO: Yetz: Also you can't view Dia de los Muertos and Halloween (inc. All Souls Day and All Saints Day) as evolving independently. Dia de los Muertos maps older Mexican American traditions on top of Christianized holidays.
	9:27am Joe McG: @JG: I'm just joshing, I love Jerry Lee. I esp. like his country stuff.
	9:27am TerrDE: Jacko, search "Randall Carlson Halloween" on youtube he covers it....Randall has 150 hours of videos about the Comet strike/air burst that melted the miles thick glaciers which now has left the Taurid meteor stream as a grim reminder
	9:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ColtraneHartman. Game Over.
	9:29am JackO: TerrDE: I certainly will. I love speculative ideas.
	👻 9:29am Yetz: Randall Carlson looks like a bit of a charlatan/huckster
	9:29am PKNY: @RR63 - agreed, Mr Hartman and the classic quartet go together like aural PB&J
	👻 9:29am Webhamster Henry: H Surface Noise enthusiasts. It's certainly Autumn-y here in the Mid Hudson.
	9:29am PaulRobeson1922: That’s unture about 12,000 year old meteor- Geology is about Deep Time- the is no evidence of a recent metro strike like that- ice cores point to the earth being hotter & colder alternatively At different times in our past- get yerself a good TEXTBOOK ON HISTORICAL GEOLOGY- & people we only have 1 volunteer and 3 shovels!!!!! Jezus
	👻 9:30am Yetz: "Sacred geometry" is a bit of a red flag
	9:30am PaulRobeson1922: U wana help us? yetz?
	9:30am PaulRobeson1922: Free boat ride to Paris…
	👻 9:30am Webhamster Henry: How about some Hellraising on this tail end of the fundraiser?
	9:31am katharsis: Good morning Joe, others, happy Halloween
	👻 9:31am Yetz: "Chronological evidence fails to support claim of an isochronous widespread layer of cosmic impact indicators dated to 12,800 years ago" - www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov...
	9:31am mariano: I love Jerry Lee too, for the record, was just kidding. He's a fellow Loozianan, can't hate him too much.
	9:31am PaulRobeson1922: But what to do with the bones of Jim Morrison? Once we get there, Yetz…
	9:31am JG: @Joe yep, the country and the rock n roll
	9:31am PaulRobeson1922: What to do what to do
	9:32am Peter from Boonton formerly Dover NJ: Some nice sounds coming outta the radio.
	👻 9:32am yerfriendpaul: Such a great tune. That voice!!
	9:33am PaulRobeson1922: Happpy Haloweeen! Now, who wants a free boat ride to paris with only 1 stipulation?
	9:33am JackO: Yetz: Thanks! Sounded a little too good to be true.
	👻 9:34am Webhamster Henry: Here's my favorite Autumn song: It's Autumn at the Automat: jhhl.net...
	9:34am dday: @PR1922@9:31: Bone Broth ??? ;)
	9:35am MplsCoco: Morning Joe! ❤️🎃
	👻 9:35am Yetz: (It's also sort of implausable that we'd be able to determine the time of year that a meteor strike happened - geological dating just isn't that precise!)
	9:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Don't know what Sacred Geometry has to do with Velikovsky sort of comet theories. ...Also - reincarnation doesn't have to be ...but the Beat Goes On.
	9:37am JackO: Now, the idea that human consciousness underwent a quantum leap in evolution because our hominid ancestors ate psychedelic mushrooms must be absolutely true! And I want to go a step further and suggest those mushrooms are an alien fungus much like The Green Slime.
	9:37am Strandlund: Such a beautiful set, Joe!!
	9:38am JackO: And that fungus landed on earth sometime in the fall.
	9:38am TerrDE: Yetz, that may from a response paper where they didn't use small enough filters to find what they were looking for. The " Comet Research Group" is a many fields of expertise group investigating . Scientists from different fielfs eorking together.
	👻 9:39am DjLorraine: The first set was so good i didn't want to disrupt it with my presence
	9:39am rx scabin: That Golden Autumn Light. Not odd, Joe.
	9:41am Greg from ZONE 5: Don’t you disparage the Spooky Boo, McGasko!
	9:41am melinda: I love autumn too.
	9:42am JackO: TerrDE: But isn't far more plausible to think that the traditions that arose around Halloween arose because of the coming of winter and the death of vegetation and bitter cold and failing sunlight? That it was seasonal and not some astronomical phenomenon.
	👻 9:42am Yetz: "Comet Research Group" looks a little fringey to me, but I'm gonna drop it, TerrDE. Happy Halloween!
	9:43am melinda: The daytime temperatures here in NC feel less autumny than what I grew accustomed to up north but still beautiful.
	9:43am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...think we should stop calling them Theories actually - when they barely rise to Hypotheses. Seasons are Astronomical - not to obscure your point.
	9:44am dday: there's still many humans saying the earth is flat. So much for humans consciously evolving (in some ways) :)
	9:44am Handy Haversack: melinda, unfortunately, it's the same here in NYC as well.
	9:44am JackO: Yes, they are. I should have been more specific and said a comet impact.
	9:46am dday: I'll take the warmer side of Autumn temps into mid Nov. thank you. Heating costs this year are twice what they were last year & it's always 8 - 10 degrees colder here in Pike Co. , PA
	9:46am melinda: @Handy I'm learning to roll with it and appreciate the ease of mild weather.

	9:47am JackO: Agreed. Theories require chains of solid evidence which this does not have. It is just speculation and all speculation is bullshit until you can truly back it up.
	9:48am dday: there was a guy in Lodi,NJ who used to set up a Halloween display on his lawn with a motorized table that tilted back & forth with a Frankenstein on it and some other excellent decorations. Many years ago. Near where my guitar teacher was located. Good old Frank Malz.
	9:50am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: As for McKenna & the Stoned Ape thing - I'm with him as far as our ancestors in deeper PreHistory were out there in the forests & jungles where the plants & fungi were. & being high on them is perhaps in fact our Natural State after all. & even that this is profound for Society. As for Fungi being Aliens - this seems Metaphor ? The fact (?) that Fungi are genetically closer to us than to Plants is almost more than I can fathom - tho our co-evolution is apparent...
	9:50am TDK60: Love the instrumental reggae. \| Happy birthday, protest/folk singer Tom Paxton!
	9:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Actually consider a few of those B-Days notable this week ...tho I am biased as a ♏︎Scorpio :) ...I mean - I agree with Terence that the Psychedelic Experience is such an extraordinary & profound thing - it's amazing it's not considered more...
	9:54am JackO: Revolution Rabbit: I wasn't being serious about the fungus thing. I was just playing around with idea of speculation. How it is easy to become convinced of an idea just because it appeals to you on some level.
	9:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: JackO sure.
	9:55am Regnad Kcin: Happy Halloween everyone!
	9:56am Regnad Kcin: One of my favorite shows. Thanks Joe!
	9:56am Dano59: Halloween has several traditions in common with the early Celtic pagan/Gaelic festival Samhain. ...and the Great Pumpkin soundtrack wasn't released until 2018; it's sourced from the TV special (with sound effects), alas, not original masters. In case you are tempted by any of the pricey vinyl versions.
	👻 9:57am Karl Ward: Good morning, I am enjoying these surfaces
	9:58am JackO: Revolution Rabbit: There was a speculation going around at one time that Venus Fly Traps were of alien origin because of their location in the Carolinas and an ancient celestial impact that happened there at one time. Fun idea but totally debunked.
	10:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's from 'All Hallow's Eve' - the night before All Souls - the day before All Saints. Of course when Xianity spread out (to euphemism the militant imperialist means this generally took) it superimposed itself over previous existing Traditions.
	👻 10:01am Karl Ward: I hope everyone is staying healthy. It seems like every non-COVID coldlike illness is stopping by my house first.
	👻 10:01am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Morning all. Happy Halloween! Remember that if you give out full-sized candy bars today, your sins will be forgiven by the Great Pumpkin! 🎃🎃🎃
	10:01am katharsis: Autumn can provoke wanderlust though not so much this year. Flight/freeze? The seasons still change here it’s just subtle and confusing because fall is the planting season and more tourists come in the winter. I still walk the beach singing boys of summer. Aliens and mushrooms would be McKenna theory as far as I know. I am dressing today some kind of a black and white outfit with old Niki Barr band t shirts.
	10:02am listener james from westwood: Aha! ABC!
	10:03am Joe McG: Thanks, kciN, glad you enjoy!
	10:03am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...sorry: All Saints generally 1st Nov., All Souls the 2nd.
	10:03am radioronan: 100% agree with autumn sentiments, Joe. Best season to feel alive when everything around is dying and hibernating..I actually get giddy about it every year..That said I do like the Halloween and Dia de los Muertos celebrations..
	10:03am Brainiac from Neuron 3: Nov. 1st Atlas 5 • JPSS 2 & LOFTID Launch time: 0925 GMT (5:25 a.m. EDT; 2:25 a.m. PDT) Launch site: SLC-3E, Vandenberg Space Force Base, California A United Launch Alliance Atlas 5 rocket, designated AV-098, will launch Joint Polar Satellite System 2, or JPSS 2, polar-orbiting weather satellite for NASA and NOAA.

The Falcon 9’s first stage booster will land on a drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean. .
	10:03am dale: great album.
	👻 10:04am Brian in UK: ABC reminds me of being in hospital with a broken leg in 1982. They were on the ward radio regularly.
	10:05am love2laf: Got the fire in the woodstove started to take the chill of autumn out of the house. Leaves are down here, except the oak, of course, oaks are the unkindest tree, dropping leaves from fall to winter to spring. Not wanderlust here, more hygge / cozy time. The music is easing me into the work week perfectly Joe, the surface noise is perfect.
	10:05am StringOFperils: Why does it have to be Space Force? Why does it always have to be force? When going to new places, always lead with force, and let them know that the force is coming for them. Yeeesh.
	10:06am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: More interesting Arrangement ~ Production than I might credit ABC with.
	10:06am Kaper79: Martin Fry had such a great voice.
	👻 10:07am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Loving this set; waking me up gently, easing me into the work week. A pastured chicken from White Oak Pastures is finally defrosted, doing a quick grocery run after work to make classic poule en cocotte....and if you are looking for a source of regeneratively-farmed meat/poultry, I do like White Oak Pastures.
	10:07am Joe McG: @Brian: Sorry to hear that! A better album to have a broken heart to than a broken leg.
	10:08am katharsis: As I understand Samhain was also traditionally a slaughter time of older animals before the winter-so another death and blood association.
	10:11am StringOFperils: I prefer Space Imperium. And bigger epaulettes on the uniform. Lose the name tags too.
	10:11am WoodsOfMaine: I love the fall. There's a certain beauty in seeing all the trees stripped of leaves. Fall weather is late on arriving this year. We haven't even had a killing frost yet and yesterday it was 66 degrees!
	10:12am luka: love this Hatchie tune, and everything i’ve heard from them tbh. good morning!
	10:13am Dano59: '82 music fit right in with '22 music. Real emotion through electronics. Gary Numan on the Moog synthesizer in 2020: “the only instrument where … the sound itself can create the atmosphere that you’re after. And so, in that respect, I always thought it was the most human instrument of all, that has ever been."
	10:14am katharsis: After the storm the trees lost most leaves and the temperature dropped so it was sort of autumnal.
	10:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Like every SciFi Author ever didn't utilize & illustrate the meaning of Humanity spreading its garbage & f-ups from right here on Earth into the new frontiers of Outer Space as well. Props to Shatner @ least for articulating the Overview Effect.
	10:16am rx scabin: I would be willing to wager that I live in the best place for Autumn.
	10:18am Dano59: I'm taking advantage of the late warm weather and finally going to check out Kinzua Bridge and a nearby dark-skies site in Pa. Also meeting a new person over coffee this week.
	10:18am love2laf: @rx scabin I feel the same about where I live, the golden encore of the tamaracks is a stunning follow up to the gorgeous colours that have finished.
	10:19am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wull here North NewEngland we propagate the PR we have some copyright on Autumn (we don't) - but I'd like it more if it wasn't followed by the inevitable prolonged atrocity of what Winter always is here ...I may be in the wrong place.
	10:19am katharsis: growing up nj it would sometimes snow before Halloween. Just a dusting.
	10:20am βrian: I lived in VT during my missing years, and I found the foliage there to be similar to that of Michigan. More topographical relief, though, which made for great viewing.
	👻 10:22am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: @katharsis I'll never forget that in my sophomore year of college upstate, it snowed before Labor Day Weekend (classes had started the third week in August). And not just a dusting; a proper 6" or so of wet, driving snow.
	10:23am JeremyB: Greedy but practical - what a lyric!
	10:23am Sam: Is wishing for more wishes against the rules?
	10:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...but the first slush is always the most beautiful...
	10:24am Sam: Most depressing birthday song ever!
	10:24am Meesalikeu: @sam yes. yes it is. any genie will tell you that right off.
	10:25am trailrunnah: Wait, wait a second here…
	10:25am StringOFperils: Almost November and the roses are blooming down the street like it's July. It signals something seriously broken but I'm enjoying the extended summers.
	10:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Autumn has always meant FolkRawk to me. Not this year yet @ all somehow ...JoeMcG might be my man here...
	10:27am Jason from Houston: 62F in the petro metro on the way to 78F. Gooooood morning.
	10:27am Handy Haversack: I can't believe it's still Carpet Burn ...
	10:27am trailrunnah: I think I saw a dinosaur egg on the trail the other day.
	10:27am βrian: We tell Little Human to put half her candy out for the Switch Witch in exchange for a wish. "You may not wish for more candy!"
	10:27am 𝕵𝖆𝖘𝖔𝖓 𝖋𝖗𝖔𝖒 𝕲𝖍𝖔𝖚𝖑𝖘𝖙𝖔𝖓: Whoops I forgot to keep it spooky.
	10:28am UncleMarty: @ Mee - How about wishing for more Genies?
	10:29am katharsis: @threemoons “sometimes it snows in April…” 1982
	10:29am βrian: Looks fine to me.
	10:29am Meesalikeu: @Revolution Rabbit Nov63 the worst thing about New England’s patent on Autumn is it’s spawn of thee worst catch phrase of all time - leaf peeping. i’ll say no more while you all bask in yuppie horror.
	10:29am Handy Haversack: Hm. Website loads here.
	10:29am Crownless Gander: It's working fine for me!

	10:40am Quinn: I'm here on the internet too
	10:41am steveo: it's not too late for the season of the witch!
	👻 10:42am Hughie Considine: How I wondered as a child what it meant to pick up every stitch...
	10:42am Dano59: speaking of this day marking time: Xmas stuff has been in stores since ~Oct. 1, and I just started compiling my Bummer Christmas playlist for this year.
	👻 10:42am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @Jason thank you
	10:43am morphe': For the North East folks on the list and everyone else, [folks writing here of leaves and winter weather]just revisited this story of the guy [Christopher Knight] who lived in the Maine woods for 27 years meeting only one person all that time and the only words he spoke to anyone ="Hi"... The article has Hermit in the title, but he did not want to be called a hermit .. Fascinating story and he was/is indeed quite intelligent and witty ..
	10:43am steveo: apparently there is a yarn store in Mt Kisco called Pick up Every Stitch
	👻 10:43am chresti: Hi Joe and surfies! I'm LOOK-in' through my window at the tennis courts.
	10:43am Dano59: ... is it being a buzzkill to remind ppl that this song is about paranoia, not witchcraft?
	10:43am morphe': Forgot the link: https://www.gq.com/story/the-last-true-hermit
	10:44am Handy Haversack: Play this one at 16, Joe! Or 78 ... if you DARE!
	👻 10:44am Hughie Considine: Nice, @Stevo, I bet their custom-spun Mellow Yellow yarn is a hot seller.
	10:45am Meesalikeu: @stevo my spouse used to get her hair cut at curl up & dye
	👻 10:45am ȶɦʀɛɛʍօօռֆ 🌛🌕🌜: And here we are, thank you!
	10:45am TDK60: "Pick up every stitch." Never thought about it; it means what?
	10:45am Dano59: favorite small-town upstate NY business name: Doggy Style Pet Grooming
	10:45am WoodsOfMaine: @morphe': That really was an amazing story. There's a book about it too.
	👻 10:46am ·.¸¸.·♩♪♫ 𝕋𝔥ⓇⒺᵉϻ𝐎ØⓝⓈ ♫♪♩·.¸¸.· 🌛🌕🌜: OK there goes my concentration today....LOL
	10:46am StringOFperils: Knitting is witchcraft.
	10:46am Handy Haversack: They're all on acorns. You can just tell.
	10:46am oshiwoshi: Chubukos = Sandra Phillips Miss FatBack in devilish chipmunk transmogrification
	10:46am Greg from ZONE 5: This explains how Joe got the nickname "The Funky Exorcist."
	👻 10:47am chresti: Fancy font Threemoons!
	10:47am Meesalikeu: @morphe’ well at least now we know what happened to that lesser known brady bunch kid after the show ended
	10:48am Joe McG: @Greg: Ha ha ha!
	👻 10:48am chresti: Cleaning is witchcraft too, StringO
	10:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'DoggyStyle' - hehe...
	10:48am p/b: Love those Chubukos - Joe who was the horn player? Got some JBs going on
	10:48am WoodsOfMaine: @Dano59: For a time there was a Pho restaurant in Keene, NH called Pho Keene Great.
	10:49am mariano: I live just down the road from Marie Laveau's old house.
	10:49am StringOFperils: I do a lot of cleaning around here, but I feel more like a morlock than a warlock
	10:51am StringOFperils: Ever ask the voodoo queen for a favor, mariano? A sixer of JAX could change your luck.
	👻 10:52am chresti: Cool mariano! Is it occupied?
	10:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Covered with chalk Xs ?
	10:55am βrian: @WoodsOfMaine: In Madison it was "Pho King Good."
	10:55am Handy Haversack: I must say, Woodhead is taking the news rather well.
	10:56am katharsis: A stitch in time…spin weave whirl. staff/distaff
	10:57am StringOFperils: Ohh, JAX is no longer with us either...except in memoryNOLA
	10:57am rx scabin: Fabulous, Joe. I must go.
	10:57am WoodsOfMaine: @Brian: What state?
	👻 10:58am ·.¸¸.·♩♪♫ 𝕋𝔥ⓇⒺᵉϻ𝐎ØⓝⓈ ♫♪♩·.¸¸.· 🌛🌕🌜: When I clean my place it feels more like an exorcism.
	10:58am βrian: Why, Wisconsin, of course.
	10:58am Handy Haversack: Another bit of disturbing news cheerfully delivered!
	10:59am Krys O.: This sounds like Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich's Last Night in Soho.
	10:59am mariano: I'll make a burnt offering, StringOfPerils! chresti: Well, the truth, as is so often the case, is a little more mundane. The original house burned down and was rebuilt in the early 1900s. I think it's apartments now, maybe Airbnb but I'm not sure. Still a very nice house, on the 1000 block of St. Anne St. ap.rdcpix.com...
	👻 11:01am chresti: Ah looks nice, did witch hunters burn it down?
	👻 11:02am chresti: 3moons I just made that up about the cleaning.
	11:02am mariano: I don't think witch hunters would last too long down here, chresti. Especially not in those days!
	11:03am spacecadet: thanks for the tunes this morning!
	11:03am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Her grave is probly covered in chalk Xs ...but nevermind. Hopefully as little of that as possible got submerged with Katrina.
	👻 11:04am chresti: A safe haven for witches then, mariano
	11:04am StringOFperils: The rain and the sun and the storms revise NOLA slowly but surely all the time. Even the tomb is ephemeral there.
	👻 11:05am Stephen from Glasgow: This song was on a compilation on the BBC recently. I’d never heard it before.
	11:06am Dano59: oooh I remember 'The Witch'! a classic AM rock song.
	11:08am Saltonstall: Soul Dracula by Hot Blood
	11:08am Sam: As hedonists and creatures of the night, vampires naturally love disco.
	11:10am mariano: Sam: Remember that disco vampire movie with George Hamilton, Love at First Bite?
	11:10am Dano59: Half Japanese, masters of the monster song, have a not-very-musical scary-sounding Halloween single.
	11:10am Sam: I never saw it
	11:10am Handy Haversack: Mariano: I remember!
	👻 11:11am chresti: The Upsetters have some nice vampire songs.
	11:11am adampsyche: got my pledge in joe!
	11:11am Dano59: btw thank you, Joe, for clearing up my pledge icon issues.
	11:12am love2laf: Pledge for Joe's hump!
	11:12am Glistener MW: Happy Halloween / Hellraiser, all! 👹 pledge pledge pledge! @ pledge.WFMU.org incredible set, Joe! I love/collect Halloween singles and had never heard a lot of those 🎃
	11:12am PMD: You don’t have control over your goals??
	11:15am Handy Haversack: Becky's pschycobilly premium from this time around is so so so good.
	11:15am Greg from ZONE 5: There were a lot of great premiums this year, but HTRG's was my personal fav.
	11:16am Greg from ZONE 5: Great minds, Handy!
	11:17am Handy Haversack: Word up, Greg!
	11:17am Sam: There is so much doowop and surf Halloween stuff from the 50's and 60's, it's nuts.
	11:20am Marie: Hey Joe, really enjoying the show. Thanks!
	11:27am 𝔍𝔞𝔰𝔬𝔫 𝔣𝔯𝔬𝔪 𝔊𝔥𝔬𝔲𝔩𝔰𝔱𝔬𝔫: Whooooooa... Delightful instrumentation.
	11:28am jong: Great! 👍
	👻 11:29am Webhamster Henry: That 2022 Gaylord premium disc is amazing!
	11:29am maria collins: Merry Xmas everyone !!!
	11:29am 𝔍𝔞𝔰𝔬𝔫 𝔣𝔯𝔬𝔪 𝔊𝔥𝔬𝔲𝔩𝔰𝔱𝔬𝔫: Speaking of instrumentation! Too many guitars! LOL
	11:30am mark in helsinki: It's You Really Got Me in Finnish....! thanks for your show, Joe. It brightens my final hours at work every Monday afternoon!
	11:31am Jason D: This set probably a good time to say thanks to whoever made sure the premium downloads all had nice well-behaved ID3 tags, so, er, thanks!
	11:31am StringOFperils: Actually less cheesy than the original!
	11:32am PaulRobeson1922: WOW!
	11:32am Dano59: I have the last Kinky Girls and it's awesome. Gaylord's 2015 Working Out the Kinks is also a get.
	11:32am PaulRobeson1922: Never My Love is one of the greatest songs of all time
	11:33am Joe McG: Hello, Helsinki!
	11:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Agree - Association not cheesy. Maybe other things.
	11:33am Dano59: hmm I don't remember getting the downloads, only that most of the actual CDs this year were unlabeled/unprinted.
	11:33am 𝔍𝔞𝔰𝔬𝔫 𝔣𝔯𝔬𝔪 𝔊𝔥𝔬𝔲𝔩𝔰𝔱𝔬𝔫: Niiiiiiiice...
	11:34am Asheville Jon: hahahaha, 'Him'. ultra cheese!
	11:34am Dano59: Therese taps into crazy radio memories
	11:34am listener james from westwood: Whoa, have not heard this Holmes in for freakin' ever! Makes sense Therese had the thought to put it on one of her comps!
	11:35am Kotzwinkled: Anyone see that recent NYTimes profile on Rupert Holmes? Odd guy!
	11:35am Roberto: My daughter sang a Rupert Holmes composition from Edwin Drood a few years ago.
	11:35am Krys O.: Nice sitar cover. And nice segue. The sitar covers reminds me of this Jackie Gleason album I own: www.discogs.com...
	11:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Velveeta aerosol 1970s cheese.
	11:35am Thin Slice: I heard somewhere that this was the final #1 song of the 1970s.
	11:35am Joe McG: @Dano: Our CD printer is broken. :( (You could choose CDs or downloads, we didn't do both for the same one.)
	11:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...but in that not charmless...
	11:36am TerrDE: unfortunately for Rupert the Him was a now insane Coal Miner who developed a taste for human flesh
	11:36am Dano59: oh, that explains it! thx Joe
	11:36am Joe B: Him definitely the scariest song we will hear this Halloween!
	11:36am Roberto: Given name: David Goldstein. Rupert Holmes, my tuchas!
	👻 11:36am tadpoles: This Rupert Holmes song makes me smile for some reason.
	11:37am Dano59: Rupert Holmes also was the writer of 'Timothy'? right?
	11:37am Joe B: @thin slice - it was not a number one song though
	11:38am Roberto: Correct, Dano! Perhaps the only hit song about cannibalism.
	11:38am TerrDE: Dano, yep
	11:38am brycepunk1: This is fantastic! I haven't heard this since I was like 8 years old. Forgot all about it
	11:38am Thin Slice: And Wikipedia tells me it wasn't released until 1980. So I was lied to.
	11:39am Joe McG: Only thing better than rock and disco separately is rock and disco together. Rosco!
	11:39am efd: Proud that my premium is part of this awesome set! Thanks Joe!
	11:39am crateslinger: omg
	11:40am Joe B: @thin slice - you were on the right track - pina colada by holmes was the final no. 1 of the 70s
	11:40am TerrDE: Joe, Pseudo Echo is in that category
	11:41am Krys O.: That's what Rosco means? I thought it had to do with the stage lighting company.
	11:41am Joe McG: @efd: Really enjoyed your premium this year, Evan!
	👻 11:41am chresti: Only $681 to go!
	11:41am Carmichael: Heya Joe and gang, let's get treated and not tricked. Evan, I am still working diligently at naming that unnamed ska song you played. Should have an answer in a few years ...
	11:43am efd: @Carmichael I appreciate your efforts!
	👻 11:43am chresti: I need to hear the unnamed ska song. What label was it on?
	11:43am katharsis: Lunch date canceled. That’s ok. We can always party on our own.
	11:44am AndyIowa: Happy Halloween, Joe and fellow ‘FMUers! Pitching in some extra bones to the Hellraiser this morning to help keep WFMU undead! AndyIowa in Brooklyn
	11:46am Carmichael: unknown label, chresti. unknown everything ... Here's the link (it's at 1:33):www.wfmu.org...
	11:46am efd: @chresti No label, it was on a mix tape someone had from the early ‘80s. I played it on my show twice, shared it with some serious music heads, sent it around on our internal WFMU email list… no one knows it.
	11:47am efd: And it’s not Shazam-able, nor do the lyrics return anything useful on internet searches.
	👻 11:48am Yetz: honestly the song is a bit forgettable, that's why everyone forgot it!
	11:48am Handy Haversack: Let that freak flag fly, Lee!
	👻 11:48am chresti: I'll give it a listen after work, thanks Carmichael and Evan! I listened to a lot of Jamaican music in the 80s and 90s
	11:49am TerrDE: where's Nancy ?
	11:49am Dano59: I love a good mixtape mystery.
	11:50am Dano59: sorry to hear that, @kath. hope mine goes as planned
	👻 11:51am chresti: I used to record the Reggae Beat on KCRW in the 80s.
	11:51am efd: @chresti it’s really more of a “ska” song, imho, not authentic. Very likely English.
	11:51am StringOFperils: Unknown ska track has me stumped. Not a bad period-piece too. Very London-ish
	11:52am Thin Slice: Thanks Joe B @11:40!
	👻 11:52am chresti: Ah, maybe a cover? @Evan
	11:52am dug: is it thursday night already? damn that was quick
	👻 11:53am 12539: Thanks, Joe!
	👻 11:53am chresti: Thanks Joe!
	11:54am Rich in Bristol: What tune was that? Absolutely wonderful!
	11:54am listener 126464: Mixtape Mysteries #7 - The Second Wave Ska Stumper
	11:54am Krys O.: Thanks, Joe!
	11:54am listener 126464: Thanks Joe, loved the show!
	👻 11:54am Brian in UK: Great show as ever, Joe.
	11:55am efd: @chresti Could be! One of the challenges in identifying it is that there’s no discernible chorus or title. Sounds similar to Madness but I’m pretty sure it’s not them. My guess is it’s a non-LP B-side that was never released later on, hence the lack of Shazam-ability.
	👻 11:55am Stephen from Glasgow: Thanks again, Joe.
	11:56am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Joe! A Premium Show, in more ways than one! Stay on top, Surfactants!
	11:56am katharsis: Thanks joe and all. And the wheel spins. We are between the worlds.
	11:56am radioronan: Thanks, Joe!
	11:57am Carmichael: Thank you Joe #1!
	👻 11:57am Susan & Bryan: thanks always Joe for an amazing show
	👻 11:57am Ken From Hyde Park: Thank you, Joe. A veritable bag of treats for us today. I hope nobody soaps the windows at 43 Montgomery Street!
	👻 11:57am nortonjutland: thanks Joe!
	11:58am Paxwell silver hammer: Excellent Halloween show Joe McGasoline. That was my Halloween name 4u, maybe you have a better one I don't know, but that was the best I could come up with Johnny one the spot.
	11:58am TDK60: Thanks, Joe.
	11:59am Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks Joe!
	👻 12:00pm Webhamster Henry: Booooo! Thanks Joe! Nice Treat!
	12:01pm StringOFperils: Thanks Joe!
	12:01pm love2laf: Thank you Joe, fantastic show today despite you having troubles with the computer and internet!
