	9:18am Juli: Hey all lovely souls:::}
	9:18am Gregory Lopez: Hi.
	9:21am Juli: Someone tried to j say mental illness in females is femcel.........
	9:22am love2laf: I am trying to find my zen today, and if anyone can get me there it's Trouble with this music. It's amazing to me that you get any group of people together, and they can all find reasons that they are not an equal part of paying for something that you all share in. I am paying the bill. I am letting go. They will reimburse what they think is fair. I will not judge them for it. I do not need to be friendly with them going forward. Repeat until I feel it.
	9:22am dans507: ↳ Juli @9:18 Thanks, and good morning to you, Juli.
	9:22am Juli: Mental illness is not the same as men who hate women.............. They were teaching this thought on a projector of some kind lol
	9:23am Juli: Some man trying to figure out women lol
	9:25am dans507: ↳ Song: "late night" by "This Mortal Coil" A beautiful opening set, and this song, though not an instrumental, fits in so well.
	9:25am rf: ↳ Song: "late night" by "This Mortal Coil" favorite
	9:26am Crownless Gander: Good morning, modernists! Missed a few tracks, but I am here for this cover.

	9:30am Gregory Lopez: Look, Trouble. "I know the sea is wrong." Name that heavy metal album for Clay.
	9:32am tom from Manchester: morning Trouble, nice set, morning all
	9:33am Hughie Considine: The Boswell Sisters made such a sweet sound...
	9:34am Juli: Now it's turning into any female who has emotions is a Femcel lol
	9:35am Juli: 50,000 likes:: WE mustban together somehow.
	9:37am chresti: ↳ Juli @9:34 Is femcel supposed to be the female version of incel?
	9:37am Juli: Oooof I told them how I felt about misogyny. They didn't respond.
	9:37am Juli: ↳ chresti @9:37 Yes. They are excited to put women below themselves.
	9:37am dans507: That sounds like what they did for FDR, too. Hid his inability to walk without crutches.
	9:38am Juli: Some ppl also stand w me it isn't real lol
	9:39am Juli: Time to get away from internet and get a studio. Mmmmm the beach.
	9:40am The Butterman: We need more Julies. Wait, what’s the proper plural of Juli? A Juli in every household and community would fix things. Really.
	9:40am Juli: I'm going to see Barbie::::}
	9:41am Juli: ↳ The Butterman @9:40 Awe. I j watched Greta Gerwig in 20th Century Woman. Another genius film.
	9:41am ldbl: no one writes quite like Deborah Levy - her memoirs are incredible / indelible
	9:41am Juli: Waiting for my pink dress to go see Barbie. I think lol.
	9:42am Juli: ↳ The Butterman @9:40 I may quote you on this loving comment.
	9:42am Juli: A little blown away by kindness.
	9:43am Handy Haversack: I'll recommend The Actual Star, by Monica Byrne. A SF novel with a braided narrative of three different times, separated by 1,000 years: 1012 CE amid the fall of a Maya kingdom, 2012 again in Belize where a U.S. "tourist" encounters ancient Mayan caves, and 3012, in a post-climate-change society whose ethos and theology are based on the life of that character. Amazing book. shop.wordbookstores.com...
	9:43am Magnolia: I just read about the Bild Lilli doll. Barbie was based on this German doll evidently.
	9:43am Vivian: ↳ Juli @9:41 Agree. I saw 20th Century Women a few weeks ago, don't recall a lot of talk about that film when it came out, but it's fantastic. Annette Benning reminded me of one of my best friends.
	9:43am love2laf: ↳ The Butterman @9:40 Very well said, wish there were more of Juli in the world, especially in my world, would make things way better.
	9:43am davefromtoronto: shoutout to milton avery!
	9:43am The Oscar: Mornin'! This seems like the board to note that my wife is currently in the process of sewing a Barbie-inspired quilt, and it's AMAZING.
	9:45am Trouble: awesome@ the oscar! sounds great!
	9:45am Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:43 And it put me very much in mind of The Dawn of Everything in its insistence that there's nothing natural about any form of economy or government, nothing inevitable -- all are human creations, human choices, and all can be undone and remade.
	9:45am Trouble: hot milk by deborah levy honestly, we meant well by grant ginder
	9:45am Juli: ↳ love2laf @9:43 I am part of your world! I am around my friend.
	9:45am love2laf: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:45 My library doesn't have it, but I've requested it to be acquired.
	9:46am Juli: ↳ Vivian @9:43 So good.!
	9:46am Zipperhead7: I'm working with the guys at Wallkill on their personal statements, in which they explain their incarceration to prospective employers. Their stories are often heartbreaking. Their lives are mapped on their faces. These men are smart, strong, brave, compassionate. They have faced the realities of race, class and justice (or lack thereof) in ways many of us cannot begin to comprehend.
	9:46am catherine M.: Read "Summer Book" (per your recommendation) in sauna at gym. Good insights about aging, some things were a little shocking, family relations were prickly. Would love to talk more about this book. PS I grew up with Moomin cartoons.
	9:47am Handy Haversack: ↳ Zipperhead7 @9:46 Thanks for doing the work, Zipperhead7.
	9:48am Gregory Lopez: "Lunatic fringe. I know you're out there!"
	9:48am love2laf: ↳ Zipperhead7 @9:46 You are doing such good work, thank you Zipperhead7. You are a part of restoring my zen with listening to what you do and see.
	9:48am Zipperhead7: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:47 It's been the greatest honor and privilege I've ever had
	9:48am The Butterman: ↳ Juli @9:42 Well, you ALWAYS bring the positivity. I’m just appreciative during this really difficult time for me and my community/job.
	9:48am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "heatwave" by "the blue nile" it's been more than 10 years since paul buchanan's last album. can we have another one please?
	9:49am Crownless Gander: ↳ Zipperhead7 @9:46 That's amazing! Such important work, thank you.
	9:49am Trouble: that sounds amazing @ zipperhead. so emotional
	9:50am dreamyandseedy: morning everyone! listening to this show for the first time! now that i have to be in front of the computer this early i am exploring some new-to-me FMU shows. i already know this one will become a thursday appointment!
	9:50am Juli: ↳ The Butterman @9:48 Oh, totally. I am a good listener I believe::::}}} Had man beautiful experiences::so I am satisfied & happy w my life yet the world is a bother.
	9:51am Juli: Many****
	9:51am Trouble: @ catherine: i thought the pricklyness was so very tove and so very real, families are hard work. all of her writing/work includes emotional challenges
	9:52am melinda: Morning everyone!
	9:52am Juli: My advice::: I have some because I have been deeply unhappy in my days as well::: Email me if you wish:: Do not wish to comment up the comment board too much!!!
	9:52am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ dreamyandseedy @9:50 oh dreamyandseedy you are in for a treat.
	9:53am Bryant in TO: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:45 I need to put that on my library list. I always feel a bit better/hopeful reading Graeber's perspective on things. The "nothing is natural about our economy or government, we can work towards something different" is a notion I'm often at pains to get friends and family to share
	9:55am Crownless Gander: ↳ Bryant in TO @9:53 Getting people to admit capitalism can be undone is really tough, because the immediate next realization is that one needs to get working immediately on undoing it.
	10:01am chresti: ↳ davefromtoronto @9:43 Hear hear!
	10:01am Juli: ↳ Crownless Gander @9:55 Mmmmmm consumerism: buying the best products is our best bet:::& demanding Basic Income to help ppl buy better:::} Basic Income works in Norway Now & They pay teachers as much as doctors.
	10:03am Juli: Going out driving as soon as weed wears off::::::}
	10:04am Trouble: pasaquan.columbusstate.edu...
	10:05am The Butterman: I’m in the backyard with my new binoculars lookin at/for birds. Trouble’s birds tricked me into grabbing them to spot despite being conditioned to know that they’re on the radio. Coming in loud and clear, Trouble!!!
	10:06am Ken From Hyde Park: Spied a hummingbird last weekend in my own backyard.
	10:07am Handy Haversack: ↳ The Butterman @10:05 Time for new earnoculars then!
	10:07am Zipperhead7: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:06 Lots and lots of hummingbirds this year! Hudson Valley has stayed relatively cool so they stayed around. What a delight!
	10:08am James in ATL: I will be going! Thank you for the info!
	10:08am The Butterman: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:06 Put up the hummingbird feeder JUST yesterday! Handy, hearing aids!
	10:09am Bryant in TO: ↳ Crownless Gander @9:55 Ain't that the truth. And capitalist forces put so many resources into making the system feel inevitable and an endpoint. And then they permit freedom to criticize those forces because why worry? You can't fight inevitability!
	10:09am Vivian: Same here. I think I'll take a quick camping/road trip down to Pasaquan this fall/winter.
	10:09am Trouble: pasaquan.columbusstate.edu...
	10:10am The Oscar: Speaking of Legrand and Barbie, the Brattle Theatre up here in Boston is doing a "Roots of Barbie" series next month featuring (among other amazing films) an Umbrellas of Cherbourg/Young Girls of Rochefort double feature!
	10:13am rx "rexy" scabin: @Zipperhead7 it is amazing.
	10:13am chresti: Looks like Columbus is near pasaquan
	10:14am Trouble: that sounds soooooo good! @ the oscar
	10:14am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morningTrouble and Everyone. Did someone say hummingbirds? We have had wharpt appears to be a returning pair for several years. They love our bee balm.
	10:14am Juli: Barbie's been my mascot since 24 lol I gtg!!! I love you all so much. Ty. Trouble: absolutely beautiful!
	10:16am Vivian: Just refilled the hummingbird feeders this morning. They'll let you know if it's out!
	10:17am Juli: I thought Barbie was an ironic figurehead of normalized beauty & I am so opposite::to wear 90's Barbie gear & 90's Barbie baby tees:::Like it's ironic that I am not Barbie at all:::} Sigh:::beauty standards. Gtg for real now. Bye loves.
	10:17am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ The Oscar @10:10 amazing work, curators!
	10:17am love2laf: ↳ Juli @10:17 Hope you have a great day Juli :)
	10:18am Robm: ↳ love2laf @9:43 wish there were more Love2Laf in the world too
	10:18am rx "rexy" scabin: @Juli good bye, have as lovely a day as is possible.
	10:18am rf: This show is shaping up to be an all-time favorite. Thank you DJ Trouble.
	10:19am Robm: have a wonderful day juli
	10:22am duvignau: hola Trouble! ¡gracias por tu programa! saludos desde Bushwick
	10:22am rx "rexy" scabin: @rf they are all my favorites. Each one as good as and better than the other. Sort of magical.
	10:22am dreamyandseedy: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:43 i put this on my to-read list, sounds intriguing! did you read or like her previous book, The Girl In The Road?
	10:22am Handy Haversack: ↳ dreamyandseedy @10:22 I haven't, but it's going on the list!
	10:23am dans507: A fine show and some fascinating comments here but, for now, I have some chores to attend to. So I bid you all adieu. I'll probably be back around noon. Until then, be well!
	10:23am love2laf: ↳ Robm @10:18 Thank you for that, having a day here, kind words are appreciated, feels like they're a missing piece in the world.
	10:23am abbazabba: ↳ Song: "rama rama" by "alice coltrane" I never would've guessed that was Alice Coltrane
	10:24am Crownless Gander: ↳ Bryant in TO @10:09 Well said. Plus the criticisms themselves can then be easily commodified. It's all so sick, no one could ever have thought it up, let alone gotten people to agree to it.
	10:25am Robm: ↳ dreamyandseedy @9:50 hey dreamy long time no see fellow sophisticated boom boom listener
	10:25am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Trouble this Alice fest is just fantastic
	10:26am Adrian in London: Hello from grey and drizzly but somehow still clammy London
	10:27am dreamyandseedy: ↳ Robm @10:25 hi Robm! i listen to an SBB archive once a week! i always remember Sheila would say "Trouble is one of our great DJs" and that reminded me to tune in today!
	10:27am Gregory Lopez: Great set.
	10:29am erik (vt): ↳ Vivian @9:43 @Juli & Viv (et al): indeed, i concur "20th Century Women" was top 3 films of the year it arrived. Saw it twice in 2 different theaters. Director Mike Mills is so sensitive to nuance. Yet i have a theory that he has been significantly encouraged by his brilliant partner Miranda July (see her entire unusual creative career!) =Her films (& performances & talks) are unique and imo very worthy of ones time. Mills' follow-up "C'mon C'mon" is also very worthy. Yet, don't sleep on Miranda July!(haha). Ps: Annette Bening echoed the vibes i grew up with via my mother's pov thru the late 60's/70's.(energized,exciting & bewildering times).
	10:29am Robm: ↳ dreamyandseedy @10:27 yes she is and julie from dark night of the soul is another one too. and i hope shelia is coming back in september too
	10:31am Gregory Lopez: Yes! Dark night of the soul! I hope to listen to them in September. Live!
	10:34am Jason from Houston: Heyyyyyy there.
	10:34am love2laf: ↳ Song: "gospel trane" by "alice coltrane" This is so many levels of wonderful, thank you for this Trouble.
	10:37am Trouble: merci! @ listener bryan( the prof)
	10:38am Robm: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:34 hey jason how are things in the fundamentalist republic if texas
	10:39am Trouble: thanks! @ gregory lopez. gracias! @ robm merci! @ love2laf
	10:40am TDK60: Alice always helps; beyond help..
	10:41am Robm: ↳ Trouble @10:39 back atcha trouble
	10:43am Yes: hello friends
	10:45am tom from Manchester: absolutely killer Alice set T
	10:45am Robm: ↳ love2laf @10:23 hey love we all have days in which we want to tell the world to go hang, and today is one of those days
	10:46am TDK60: ↳ Song: "angel of air/ angle of water" by "turiya alice co... Santana's album from the year before 'Illuminations -- 'Welcome' is very Alice inspired. & John.
	10:47am chris_in_space: ↳ tom from Manchester @10:45 Agreed! There is also a great version of "Going Home" on Santana's "Welcome" album.
	10:47am Listener Bryan (the Professor): This is just the best. Going home. Me too. My run is almost over.
	10:48am Gregory Lopez: Hi TDK60.
	10:48am TDK60: ↳ chris_in_space @10:47 Hi chris-in-space. Yes. The opener.
	10:48am unpopularfred: I've seen a bumper sticker a few times that says "Keep Honking! I'm listening to Alice Coltrane's 1971 meteoric sensation "Universal Consciousness"
	10:49am Trouble: thanks tom from manchester!
	10:49am TDK60: ↳ Gregory Lopez @10:48 Hello Gregory.
	10:52am chris_in_space: ↳ unpopularfred @10:48 this guy makes some cool bumper stickers of the kind which you speak: www.instagram.com...
	10:52am Helical nofall: Great set 🫠
	10:54am Adrian in London: Really enjoying this Alice set, Trouble
	10:58am love2laf: ↳ Robm @10:45 True, today though feels like it's others telling me to go hang. Music and WFMU are the best cure for whatever ails you, and this Coltrane set is truly the very best medicine.
	10:59am Zipperhead7: Thank you for all of this gentle, reflective and aspirational music, Trouble. It is a balm many of us need
	10:59am Trouble: thanks@ adrian! obrigada@ helical nofall
	10:59am Rich in Washington: What a marvelous set. Sigh.
	10:59am Tara: this set is moving my tense freaked out heart TY
	11:00am Robm: ↳ love2laf @10:58 tell them to screw themselves love, if all else fails give erin a scritch for me
	11:02am egould: This is the modern world.
	11:03am rx "rexy" scabin: Tomorrow is opening meeting; it is just like you think it is. This music is the perfect balm.
	11:05am Mike W.: The Likeness Of has come down off the bow and taken hold of the wheel
	11:06am love2laf: ↳ Robm @11:00 In Erin news, after 2+ years, today is the 4th time this month that she has finally come to sleep on the couch beside me. Remarkable that she continues to make progress every day in being part of the family. @rx "rexy" scabin dare I ask where the sexy rexy nickname came from?
	11:08am Robm: ↳ love2laf @11:06 good for her L2L, and i wonder wher the sexy nickname came from too:)
	11:09am Roberto: ↳ love2laf @11:06 Erin is kitteh?
	11:10am sydnius: Lovin the Alice Trouble!
	11:10am The Butterman: Great! Now I’m using my binoculars to find a French guy in my backyard!
	11:11am Robm: ↳ Roberto @11:09 yup she is
	11:11am sydnius: ↳ The Butterman @11:10 do you have a Baguette as bait?
	11:11am Roberto: ↳ Robm @11:11 HAI ERIN
	11:11am love2laf: ↳ Roberto @11:09 Erin is my foster fail kitteh. She was a feral orphaned kitten, thought to be a boy for her fierce protection of her sister, both looked after by a tom cat. Strange things indeed. Her name was Aaron Purr, until the bet discovered she was not a he.
	11:11am PaulRobeson1923: Hi ahi ahi!
	11:12am Gregolomania: The gift of Alice. That was wonderful.
	11:12am Roberto: ↳ love2laf @11:11 OMG AARON PURRR HAHAHHAHAHHA
	11:12am PaulRobeson1923: *American Black people & thus America baby
	11:14am PaulRobeson1923: The capitol B in Black represents a shared history in the Americas
	11:14am love2laf: ↳ Roberto @11:12 The three of them were named by an 11 year old girl, but I too laughed at Aaron Purr.
	11:15am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Trouble @10:37 pretty sure i own the charlie hayden/alice for turiya LP because of you!
	11:15am Roberto: ↳ love2laf @11:14 Kind of like how Uncle Michael's kitteh went from Lucy to Lucas.
	11:15am PaulRobeson1923: U say u want a revolution wellll U knoww
	11:16am The Butterman: ↳ sydnius @11:11 That would have been smart.
	11:16am erik (vt): ↳ The Oscar @10:10 that sounds like a great idea for a new film series now. too bad it can't include the "pulled from circulation" todd haynes classic 45min film "Superstar: the Karen Carpenter Story" 1988 - featuring manipulated barbie dolls as the actors. primitive by any standards, but very effective.
	11:17am The Butterman: TDK60 affiliated with the Interference archive?
	11:18am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "Song For Chè" by "charlie haden" Niiiiice...
	11:18am PaulRobeson1923: Hope is a strange thing… recall hope has had many uses. 4 example- on the far side of the hope spectrum- the Nazi’s used hope when giving out lumpy bars of soap- false hope can mean acquiescence to a lie!
	11:19am TDK60: Good late morning, Butterman, The. Yes, proudly so. Tho, not that active now; working on music.
	11:19am sydnius: ↳ The Butterman @11:16 Very Effective. 🇫🇷
	11:20am love2laf: ↳ Roberto @11:15 I don't know Uncle Michael or his kitteh's story, but it was pretty wild that the tom cat was thought to be their mother, and Erin a male kitteh. They got 2 out of 3 wrong on that trio of rescued ferals.
	11:21am The Butterman: ↳ TDK60 @11:19 See? I can retain information from years back! I still got it baby! Keep on keepin on TDK!
	11:21am Roberto: ↳ love2laf @11:20 UM's kitteh was initially thought to be female but eventually presented as male. Hence the name change.
	11:23am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @11:21 Sadly, kittehs can't (or won't) tell us their preferred pronouns!
	11:23am love2laf: ↳ Roberto @11:23 And how are your kittehs doing? Any progress?
	11:24am Roberto: ↳ love2laf @11:23 Oh, Meowrice? He seems to be mellowing a bit. Funny, he's actually gotten calmer since his first visit to the vet last week.
	11:25am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Song For Chè" by "charlie haden" Ooh my gosh this is amazing. That's gotta be Dewey Redman on tenor.
	11:26am love2laf: ↳ Roberto @11:24 Amazing what makes changes in their personality. Glad to hear he's calming down.
	11:28am Trouble: yes! @ chris hiatt
	11:31am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you for the fabulous show, Trouble. It hit the spot as usual. Goodbye, Everyone. Good luck.
	11:35am chresti: ↳ love2laf @11:14 Aaronpurrrina?
	11:36am love2laf: Having acquired many book recommendations here today, I have in my to-re-read pile Mary Doria Russel's The Sparrow and the follow up Children Of God. Remarkable story telling about humans and miscommunication. It will be a 4th time reading, that's how much I enjoy it.
	11:36am Karl: ↳ Song: "give it up" by "sade" YES
	11:38am love2laf: ↳ chresti @11:35 Ha! Nicely done chresti :)
	11:40am Marie in Queens: Howdy Trouble and All. Tuning in late. Love this Eddie Chacon vibe and that painting, above.
	11:41am Noir Lover: ↳ Song: "spyrone" by "Harry J Allstars" Picking up a hint of Day Tripper
	11:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ love2laf @11:26 Goblin and Bugbear turn two on Saturday -- the day after K8's bday. They are amazing still. Though Bugbear decided to jump on my back while I was pouring the Cointreau last night, so we still need to have a talk about good attention and bad attention. The Cointreau was fine!
	11:44am Yes: <33
	11:50am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "hello stranger" by "brown sugar" Phew...
	11:51am love2laf: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:43 Better a jump on your back than breaking the laptop even more. Please give K8 the happiest of birthday weekends and wish her a happy new year for her from all of us here. Hope the kitteh's have an excellent celebration.
	11:53am Yes: Thank you Trouble + alllll
	11:54am Trouble: thanks for sitting in today!
	11:54am Barclay: Loving this reggae set. Just finished reading Lloyd Bradley's Bass Culture, after having it on my shelf for 20+ years. No idea why I waited so long! Going to see Marcia Griffiths in Toronto tonight.
	11:55am love2laf: Thank you Trouble, your music is always a healing time, and your mic breaks always bring something new to ponder and work towards being better humans. Thank you fellow Modernists, I appreciate you and what you have to say.

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

	9:18am Juli: Hey all lovely souls:::}
	9:18am Gregory Lopez: Hi.
	9:21am Juli: Someone tried to j say mental illness in females is femcel.........
	9:22am love2laf: I am trying to find my zen today, and if anyone can get me there it's Trouble with this music. It's amazing to me that you get any group of people together, and they can all find reasons that they are not an equal part of paying for something that you all share in. I am paying the bill. I am letting go. They will reimburse what they think is fair. I will not judge them for it. I do not need to be friendly with them going forward. Repeat until I feel it.
	9:22am dans507: ↳ Juli @9:18 Thanks, and good morning to you, Juli.
	9:22am Juli: Mental illness is not the same as men who hate women.............. They were teaching this thought on a projector of some kind lol
	9:23am Juli: Some man trying to figure out women lol
	9:25am dans507: ↳ Song: "late night" by "This Mortal Coil" A beautiful opening set, and this song, though not an instrumental, fits in so well.

	9:32am tom from Manchester: morning Trouble, nice set, morning all
	9:33am Hughie Considine: The Boswell Sisters made such a sweet sound...
	9:34am Juli: Now it's turning into any female who has emotions is a Femcel lol
	9:35am Juli: 50,000 likes:: WE mustban together somehow.
	9:37am chresti: ↳ Juli @9:34 Is femcel supposed to be the female version of incel?
	9:37am Juli: Oooof I told them how I felt about misogyny. They didn't respond.
	9:37am Juli: ↳ chresti @9:37 Yes. They are excited to put women below themselves.
	9:37am dans507: That sounds like what they did for FDR, too. Hid his inability to walk without crutches.
	9:38am Juli: Some ppl also stand w me it isn't real lol
	9:39am Juli: Time to get away from internet and get a studio. Mmmmm the beach.
	9:40am The Butterman: We need more Julies. Wait, what’s the proper plural of Juli? A Juli in every household and community would fix things. Really.
	9:40am Juli: I'm going to see Barbie::::}
	9:41am Juli: ↳ The Butterman @9:40 Awe. I j watched Greta Gerwig in 20th Century Woman. Another genius film.
	9:41am ldbl: no one writes quite like Deborah Levy - her memoirs are incredible / indelible
	9:41am Juli: Waiting for my pink dress to go see Barbie. I think lol.
	9:42am Juli: ↳ The Butterman @9:40 I may quote you on this loving comment.
	9:42am Juli: A little blown away by kindness.
	9:43am Handy Haversack: I'll recommend The Actual Star, by Monica Byrne. A SF novel with a braided narrative of three different times, separated by 1,000 years: 1012 CE amid the fall of a Maya kingdom, 2012 again in Belize where a U.S. "tourist" encounters ancient Mayan caves, and 3012, in a post-climate-change society whose ethos and theology are based on the life of that character. Amazing book. shop.wordbookstores.com...
	9:43am Magnolia: I just read about the Bild Lilli doll. Barbie was based on this German doll evidently.
	9:43am Vivian: ↳ Juli @9:41 Agree. I saw 20th Century Women a few weeks ago, don't recall a lot of talk about that film when it came out, but it's fantastic. Annette Benning reminded me of one of my best friends.
	9:43am love2laf: ↳ The Butterman @9:40 Very well said, wish there were more of Juli in the world, especially in my world, would make things way better.
	9:43am davefromtoronto: shoutout to milton avery!
	9:43am The Oscar: Mornin'! This seems like the board to note that my wife is currently in the process of sewing a Barbie-inspired quilt, and it's AMAZING.
	9:45am Trouble: awesome@ the oscar! sounds great!
	9:45am Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:43 And it put me very much in mind of The Dawn of Everything in its insistence that there's nothing natural about any form of economy or government, nothing inevitable -- all are human creations, human choices, and all can be undone and remade.
	9:45am Trouble: hot milk by deborah levy honestly, we meant well by grant ginder
	9:45am Juli: ↳ love2laf @9:43 I am part of your world! I am around my friend.
	9:45am love2laf: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:45 My library doesn't have it, but I've requested it to be acquired.
	9:46am Juli: ↳ Vivian @9:43 So good.!
	9:46am Zipperhead7: I'm working with the guys at Wallkill on their personal statements, in which they explain their incarceration to prospective employers. Their stories are often heartbreaking. Their lives are mapped on their faces. These men are smart, strong, brave, compassionate. They have faced the realities of race, class and justice (or lack thereof) in ways many of us cannot begin to comprehend.
	9:46am catherine M.: Read "Summer Book" (per your recommendation) in sauna at gym. Good insights about aging, some things were a little shocking, family relations were prickly. Would love to talk more about this book. PS I grew up with Moomin cartoons.
	9:47am Handy Haversack: ↳ Zipperhead7 @9:46 Thanks for doing the work, Zipperhead7.
	9:48am Gregory Lopez: "Lunatic fringe. I know you're out there!"
	9:48am love2laf: ↳ Zipperhead7 @9:46 You are doing such good work, thank you Zipperhead7. You are a part of restoring my zen with listening to what you do and see.
	9:48am Zipperhead7: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:47 It's been the greatest honor and privilege I've ever had
	9:48am The Butterman: ↳ Juli @9:42 Well, you ALWAYS bring the positivity. I’m just appreciative during this really difficult time for me and my community/job.
	9:48am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "heatwave" by "the blue nile" it's been more than 10 years since paul buchanan's last album. can we have another one please?
	9:49am Crownless Gander: ↳ Zipperhead7 @9:46 That's amazing! Such important work, thank you.
	9:49am Trouble: that sounds amazing @ zipperhead. so emotional
	9:50am dreamyandseedy: morning everyone! listening to this show for the first time! now that i have to be in front of the computer this early i am exploring some new-to-me FMU shows. i already know this one will become a thursday appointment!
	9:50am Juli: ↳ The Butterman @9:48 Oh, totally. I am a good listener I believe::::}}} Had man beautiful experiences::so I am satisfied & happy w my life yet the world is a bother.
	9:51am Juli: Many****
	9:51am Trouble: @ catherine: i thought the pricklyness was so very tove and so very real, families are hard work. all of her writing/work includes emotional challenges
	9:52am melinda: Morning everyone!
	9:52am Juli: My advice::: I have some because I have been deeply unhappy in my days as well::: Email me if you wish:: Do not wish to comment up the comment board too much!!!
	9:52am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ dreamyandseedy @9:50 oh dreamyandseedy you are in for a treat.
	9:53am Bryant in TO: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:45 I need to put that on my library list. I always feel a bit better/hopeful reading Graeber's perspective on things. The "nothing is natural about our economy or government, we can work towards something different" is a notion I'm often at pains to get friends and family to share
	9:55am Crownless Gander: ↳ Bryant in TO @9:53 Getting people to admit capitalism can be undone is really tough, because the immediate next realization is that one needs to get working immediately on undoing it.
	10:01am chresti: ↳ davefromtoronto @9:43 Hear hear!
	10:01am Juli: ↳ Crownless Gander @9:55 Mmmmmm consumerism: buying the best products is our best bet:::& demanding Basic Income to help ppl buy better:::} Basic Income works in Norway Now & They pay teachers as much as doctors.
	10:03am Juli: Going out driving as soon as weed wears off::::::}
	10:04am Trouble: pasaquan.columbusstate.edu...
	10:05am The Butterman: I’m in the backyard with my new binoculars lookin at/for birds. Trouble’s birds tricked me into grabbing them to spot despite being conditioned to know that they’re on the radio. Coming in loud and clear, Trouble!!!
	10:06am Ken From Hyde Park: Spied a hummingbird last weekend in my own backyard.
	10:07am Handy Haversack: ↳ The Butterman @10:05 Time for new earnoculars then!
	10:07am Zipperhead7: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:06 Lots and lots of hummingbirds this year! Hudson Valley has stayed relatively cool so they stayed around. What a delight!
	10:08am James in ATL: I will be going! Thank you for the info!
	10:08am The Butterman: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:06 Put up the hummingbird feeder JUST yesterday! Handy, hearing aids!
	10:09am Bryant in TO: ↳ Crownless Gander @9:55 Ain't that the truth. And capitalist forces put so many resources into making the system feel inevitable and an endpoint. And then they permit freedom to criticize those forces because why worry? You can't fight inevitability!
	10:09am Vivian: Same here. I think I'll take a quick camping/road trip down to Pasaquan this fall/winter.
	10:09am Trouble: pasaquan.columbusstate.edu...
	10:10am The Oscar: Speaking of Legrand and Barbie, the Brattle Theatre up here in Boston is doing a "Roots of Barbie" series next month featuring (among other amazing films) an Umbrellas of Cherbourg/Young Girls of Rochefort double feature!
	10:13am rx "rexy" scabin: @Zipperhead7 it is amazing.
	10:13am chresti: Looks like Columbus is near pasaquan
	10:14am Trouble: that sounds soooooo good! @ the oscar
	10:14am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morningTrouble and Everyone. Did someone say hummingbirds? We have had wharpt appears to be a returning pair for several years. They love our bee balm.
	10:14am Juli: Barbie's been my mascot since 24 lol I gtg!!! I love you all so much. Ty. Trouble: absolutely beautiful!
	10:16am Vivian: Just refilled the hummingbird feeders this morning. They'll let you know if it's out!
	10:17am Juli: I thought Barbie was an ironic figurehead of normalized beauty & I am so opposite::to wear 90's Barbie gear & 90's Barbie baby tees:::Like it's ironic that I am not Barbie at all:::} Sigh:::beauty standards. Gtg for real now. Bye loves.
	10:17am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ The Oscar @10:10 amazing work, curators!
	10:17am love2laf: ↳ Juli @10:17 Hope you have a great day Juli :)
	10:18am Robm: ↳ love2laf @9:43 wish there were more Love2Laf in the world too
	10:18am rx "rexy" scabin: @Juli good bye, have as lovely a day as is possible.
	10:18am rf: This show is shaping up to be an all-time favorite. Thank you DJ Trouble.
	10:19am Robm: have a wonderful day juli
	10:22am duvignau: hola Trouble! ¡gracias por tu programa! saludos desde Bushwick
	10:22am rx "rexy" scabin: @rf they are all my favorites. Each one as good as and better than the other. Sort of magical.
	10:22am dreamyandseedy: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:43 i put this on my to-read list, sounds intriguing! did you read or like her previous book, The Girl In The Road?
	10:22am Handy Haversack: ↳ dreamyandseedy @10:22 I haven't, but it's going on the list!
	10:23am dans507: A fine show and some fascinating comments here but, for now, I have some chores to attend to. So I bid you all adieu. I'll probably be back around noon. Until then, be well!
	10:23am love2laf: ↳ Robm @10:18 Thank you for that, having a day here, kind words are appreciated, feels like they're a missing piece in the world.
	10:23am abbazabba: ↳ Song: "rama rama" by "alice coltrane" I never would've guessed that was Alice Coltrane
	10:24am Crownless Gander: ↳ Bryant in TO @10:09 Well said. Plus the criticisms themselves can then be easily commodified. It's all so sick, no one could ever have thought it up, let alone gotten people to agree to it.
	10:25am Robm: ↳ dreamyandseedy @9:50 hey dreamy long time no see fellow sophisticated boom boom listener
	10:25am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Trouble this Alice fest is just fantastic
	10:26am Adrian in London: Hello from grey and drizzly but somehow still clammy London
	10:27am dreamyandseedy: ↳ Robm @10:25 hi Robm! i listen to an SBB archive once a week! i always remember Sheila would say "Trouble is one of our great DJs" and that reminded me to tune in today!
	10:27am Gregory Lopez: Great set.
	10:29am erik (vt): ↳ Vivian @9:43 @Juli & Viv (et al): indeed, i concur "20th Century Women" was top 3 films of the year it arrived. Saw it twice in 2 different theaters. Director Mike Mills is so sensitive to nuance. Yet i have a theory that he has been significantly encouraged by his brilliant partner Miranda July (see her entire unusual creative career!) =Her films (& performances & talks) are unique and imo very worthy of ones time. Mills' follow-up "C'mon C'mon" is also very worthy. Yet, don't sleep on Miranda July!(haha). Ps: Annette Bening echoed the vibes i grew up with via my mother's pov thru the late 60's/70's.(energized,exciting & bewildering times).
	10:29am Robm: ↳ dreamyandseedy @10:27 yes she is and julie from dark night of the soul is another one too. and i hope shelia is coming back in september too
	10:31am Gregory Lopez: Yes! Dark night of the soul! I hope to listen to them in September. Live!
	10:34am Jason from Houston: Heyyyyyy there.
	10:34am love2laf: ↳ Song: "gospel trane" by "alice coltrane" This is so many levels of wonderful, thank you for this Trouble.
	10:37am Trouble: merci! @ listener bryan( the prof)
	10:38am Robm: ↳ Jason from Houston @10:34 hey jason how are things in the fundamentalist republic if texas
	10:39am Trouble: thanks! @ gregory lopez. gracias! @ robm merci! @ love2laf
	10:40am TDK60: Alice always helps; beyond help..
	10:41am Robm: ↳ Trouble @10:39 back atcha trouble
	10:43am Yes: hello friends
	10:45am tom from Manchester: absolutely killer Alice set T
	10:45am Robm: ↳ love2laf @10:23 hey love we all have days in which we want to tell the world to go hang, and today is one of those days
	10:46am TDK60: ↳ Song: "angel of air/ angle of water" by "turiya alice co... Santana's album from the year before 'Illuminations -- 'Welcome' is very Alice inspired. & John.
	10:47am chris_in_space: ↳ tom from Manchester @10:45 Agreed! There is also a great version of "Going Home" on Santana's "Welcome" album.
	10:47am Listener Bryan (the Professor): This is just the best. Going home. Me too. My run is almost over.
	10:48am Gregory Lopez: Hi TDK60.
	10:48am TDK60: ↳ chris_in_space @10:47 Hi chris-in-space. Yes. The opener.
	10:48am unpopularfred: I've seen a bumper sticker a few times that says "Keep Honking! I'm listening to Alice Coltrane's 1971 meteoric sensation "Universal Consciousness"
	10:49am Trouble: thanks tom from manchester!
	10:49am TDK60: ↳ Gregory Lopez @10:48 Hello Gregory.
	10:52am chris_in_space: ↳ unpopularfred @10:48 this guy makes some cool bumper stickers of the kind which you speak: www.instagram.com...
	10:52am Helical nofall: Great set 🫠
	10:54am Adrian in London: Really enjoying this Alice set, Trouble
	10:58am love2laf: ↳ Robm @10:45 True, today though feels like it's others telling me to go hang. Music and WFMU are the best cure for whatever ails you, and this Coltrane set is truly the very best medicine.
	10:59am Zipperhead7: Thank you for all of this gentle, reflective and aspirational music, Trouble. It is a balm many of us need
	10:59am Trouble: thanks@ adrian! obrigada@ helical nofall
	10:59am Rich in Washington: What a marvelous set. Sigh.

	11:05am Mike W.: The Likeness Of has come down off the bow and taken hold of the wheel
	11:06am love2laf: ↳ Robm @11:00 In Erin news, after 2+ years, today is the 4th time this month that she has finally come to sleep on the couch beside me. Remarkable that she continues to make progress every day in being part of the family. @rx "rexy" scabin dare I ask where the sexy rexy nickname came from?
	11:08am Robm: ↳ love2laf @11:06 good for her L2L, and i wonder wher the sexy nickname came from too:)
	11:09am Roberto: ↳ love2laf @11:06 Erin is kitteh?
	11:10am sydnius: Lovin the Alice Trouble!

	11:11am sydnius: ↳ The Butterman @11:10 do you have a Baguette as bait?
	11:11am Roberto: ↳ Robm @11:11 HAI ERIN
	11:11am love2laf: ↳ Roberto @11:09 Erin is my foster fail kitteh. She was a feral orphaned kitten, thought to be a boy for her fierce protection of her sister, both looked after by a tom cat. Strange things indeed. Her name was Aaron Purr, until the bet discovered she was not a he.
	11:11am PaulRobeson1923: Hi ahi ahi!
	11:12am Gregolomania: The gift of Alice. That was wonderful.
	11:12am Roberto: ↳ love2laf @11:11 OMG AARON PURRR HAHAHHAHAHHA
	11:12am PaulRobeson1923: *American Black people & thus America baby
	11:14am PaulRobeson1923: The capitol B in Black represents a shared history in the Americas
	11:14am love2laf: ↳ Roberto @11:12 The three of them were named by an 11 year old girl, but I too laughed at Aaron Purr.
	11:15am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Trouble @10:37 pretty sure i own the charlie hayden/alice for turiya LP because of you!
	11:15am Roberto: ↳ love2laf @11:14 Kind of like how Uncle Michael's kitteh went from Lucy to Lucas.
	11:15am PaulRobeson1923: U say u want a revolution wellll U knoww
	11:16am The Butterman: ↳ sydnius @11:11 That would have been smart.
	11:16am erik (vt): ↳ The Oscar @10:10 that sounds like a great idea for a new film series now. too bad it can't include the "pulled from circulation" todd haynes classic 45min film "Superstar: the Karen Carpenter Story" 1988 - featuring manipulated barbie dolls as the actors. primitive by any standards, but very effective.
	11:17am The Butterman: TDK60 affiliated with the Interference archive?
	11:18am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "Song For Chè" by "charlie haden" Niiiiice...
	11:18am PaulRobeson1923: Hope is a strange thing… recall hope has had many uses. 4 example- on the far side of the hope spectrum- the Nazi’s used hope when giving out lumpy bars of soap- false hope can mean acquiescence to a lie!
	11:19am TDK60: Good late morning, Butterman, The. Yes, proudly so. Tho, not that active now; working on music.
	11:19am sydnius: ↳ The Butterman @11:16 Very Effective. 🇫🇷
	11:20am love2laf: ↳ Roberto @11:15 I don't know Uncle Michael or his kitteh's story, but it was pretty wild that the tom cat was thought to be their mother, and Erin a male kitteh. They got 2 out of 3 wrong on that trio of rescued ferals.
	11:21am The Butterman: ↳ TDK60 @11:19 See? I can retain information from years back! I still got it baby! Keep on keepin on TDK!
	11:21am Roberto: ↳ love2laf @11:20 UM's kitteh was initially thought to be female but eventually presented as male. Hence the name change.
	11:23am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @11:21 Sadly, kittehs can't (or won't) tell us their preferred pronouns!
	11:23am love2laf: ↳ Roberto @11:23 And how are your kittehs doing? Any progress?
	11:24am Roberto: ↳ love2laf @11:23 Oh, Meowrice? He seems to be mellowing a bit. Funny, he's actually gotten calmer since his first visit to the vet last week.
	11:25am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Song For Chè" by "charlie haden" Ooh my gosh this is amazing. That's gotta be Dewey Redman on tenor.
	11:26am love2laf: ↳ Roberto @11:24 Amazing what makes changes in their personality. Glad to hear he's calming down.
	11:28am Trouble: yes! @ chris hiatt
	11:31am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you for the fabulous show, Trouble. It hit the spot as usual. Goodbye, Everyone. Good luck.
	11:35am chresti: ↳ love2laf @11:14 Aaronpurrrina?
	11:36am love2laf: Having acquired many book recommendations here today, I have in my to-re-read pile Mary Doria Russel's The Sparrow and the follow up Children Of God. Remarkable story telling about humans and miscommunication. It will be a 4th time reading, that's how much I enjoy it.
	11:36am Karl: ↳ Song: "give it up" by "sade" YES
	11:38am love2laf: ↳ chresti @11:35 Ha! Nicely done chresti :)
	11:40am Marie in Queens: Howdy Trouble and All. Tuning in late. Love this Eddie Chacon vibe and that painting, above.
	11:41am Noir Lover: ↳ Song: "spyrone" by "Harry J Allstars" Picking up a hint of Day Tripper
	11:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ love2laf @11:26 Goblin and Bugbear turn two on Saturday -- the day after K8's bday. They are amazing still. Though Bugbear decided to jump on my back while I was pouring the Cointreau last night, so we still need to have a talk about good attention and bad attention. The Cointreau was fine!
	11:44am Yes: <33
	11:50am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "hello stranger" by "brown sugar" Phew...
	11:51am love2laf: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:43 Better a jump on your back than breaking the laptop even more. Please give K8 the happiest of birthday weekends and wish her a happy new year for her from all of us here. Hope the kitteh's have an excellent celebration.
	11:53am Yes: Thank you Trouble + alllll
	11:54am Trouble: thanks for sitting in today!
	11:54am Barclay: Loving this reggae set. Just finished reading Lloyd Bradley's Bass Culture, after having it on my shelf for 20+ years. No idea why I waited so long! Going to see Marcia Griffiths in Toronto tonight.
	11:55am love2laf: Thank you Trouble, your music is always a healing time, and your mic breaks always bring something new to ponder and work towards being better humans. Thank you fellow Modernists, I appreciate you and what you have to say.
