	9:44am Dan: R. Crumb is drawing a moth clock somewhere, as we speak.

	👻 9:46am Bobby: Finally in a holiday mood

	9:51am Edgar from Maine: ↳ HyperDose @9:47 I wish you lived in Portland.
	9:51am Dan: That would be interesting glistening
	👻 9:51am Handy Haversack: ↳ HyperDose @9:47 That's a whole different world. Never even watched one. Just find a game to hop in on. It's not supposed to be hard.
	👻 9:52am Noir Lover: ↳ Song: "a very mothcock xmas" by "mothcock" Of course Mothcock has a Xmas album.
	9:53am Dan: Nytimes just had a piece contemplating how rich the family was in first Home Alone. Parents jobs are never mentioned.

	9:55am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Dan @9:53 One of my first college classes involved TV and the professor asked "How did George Jefferson get rich?" and 300 people's hands shot up. Then he asked "How did Mr. Drummond get rich?" and no hands shot up. White peoples' wealth never needed to be explained.

	👻 9:59am Bobby: ↳ Song: "xmas with satan" by "james chance" now i’m getting emotional
	9:59am HyperDose: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:51 Being a newbie, you're going into it with that anxiety of not wanting to hold up the game to have everyone teach you. As it is with other tabletop/card games
	10:00am Dan: Magic Band back up?
	👻 10:00am Handy Haversack: ↳ HyperDose @9:59 NOT your problem. Any DM worth their salt smooths that shit over without breaking a sweat. You're just supposed to have fun.
	10:01am tom tom the pipers son: ah, seizures grittings...
	10:01am bobobob plasticland: Chance aka Jim Siegfried..went to the Milwaukee Conservatory of Music on prospect ave when I was there with all those stuffed shirt classical music musicians.

	10:02am Dan: John, please tell me, Clay calls it a “flute”, but is he playing a recorder?
	10:02am Edgar from Maine: Usually the players are all amped up and the DM is the one slowing things down. It's 90% storytelling and improv in my experience.
	👻 10:03am Handy Haversack: ↳ bobobob fabtriplasticland @10:01 bobobobobob! That first Kevn Kinney tribute album is on its way here. I had no idea this was even a thing! REALLY excited!

	10:07am rx "rexy" scabin: I have this Zorn album. All of it is beautiful.
	10:09am PaulRobeson1923: Blood runs high tis the time of the season
	10:11am bobobob: Handy yeah Kev'n is a great song writer ..I actually met Kev'n first in 1981 thru Brian Ritchie..v femme/ Plasticland.... Kev'n also a roadie for my friends band the Haskells

	👻 10:25am Jason from Houston: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:23 Adult small.
	👻 10:28am Ken From Hyde Park: Maggie Hertz had some far-out Christmas music last night. www.wfmu.org... (Although maybe 30% of it can legally be described as music.)
	10:29am Phillippe: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:21 ya, I thought there was freeze, as well as some government incentives
	10:29am Phillippe: *was a freeze
	10:30am Phillippe: ↳ Phillippe @10:29 Damn typos. I recently took a personality test and fell into the 6th percentile for "attention to detail"...
	10:31am rx "rexy" scabin: @Phillippe what?
	👻 10:32am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Phillippe @10:30 Could be why your career as a doctor never really took off.
	10:33am Phillippe: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:32 no doubt. I kept running out of scalpels and wristwatches
	👻 10:33am Handy Haversack: ↳ Phillippe @10:30 Hey, that just means you are kicking five percentiles' asses!
	10:33am Slaboch: Happy Holidays John!

	10:42am Phillippe: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @10:31 has something to do with my ability to pay attention. My attention span is pretty much that of yellow lab in the exhibit room at a bubble machine makers convention

	👻 10:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ Phillippe @10:40 Yeah! In their FACE!
	10:43am rx "rexy" scabin: Is the stream periodically dropping for a moment for anyone using the app?
	10:43am Phillippe: *of a yellow lab {sigh...}
	10:44am love2laf: Starting Slothmus off right, slept in until 10, and listening to JA's morning of JAZZ. The fanny pack has never felt so cozy. @Phillippe I will keep this on hand to excuse my next lapse of attention. "I'm a yellow lab in an exhibit room at a bubble machine makers convention".
	10:45am Phillippe: ↳ love2laf @10:44 damn, I forgot to trademark that! See what I mean?

	11:03am rx "rexy" scabin: Doesn't John have control of the bells?
	11:04am ∫ydniuß: Does Felder have any holiday songs?
	👻 11:08am Handy Haversack: ↳ Karl @11:02 Don't even joke. I almost walked out of the Bushwick pizza place we went to before K8's gig last night when Pearl Jam came on. My buddies died face down in the muck --!

JA In The AM with John Allen: Playlist from December 22, 2023

View John Allen's profile

"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

	👻 10:28am Ken From Hyde Park: Maggie Hertz had some far-out Christmas music last night. www.wfmu.org... (Although maybe 30% of it can legally be described as music.)
	10:29am Phillippe: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:21 ya, I thought there was freeze, as well as some government incentives
	10:29am Phillippe: *was a freeze
	10:30am Phillippe: ↳ Phillippe @10:29 Damn typos. I recently took a personality test and fell into the 6th percentile for "attention to detail"...
	10:31am rx "rexy" scabin: @Phillippe what?
	👻 10:32am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Phillippe @10:30 Could be why your career as a doctor never really took off.
	10:33am Phillippe: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:32 no doubt. I kept running out of scalpels and wristwatches

	10:43am Phillippe: *of a yellow lab {sigh...}
	10:44am love2laf: Starting Slothmus off right, slept in until 10, and listening to JA's morning of JAZZ. The fanny pack has never felt so cozy. @Phillippe I will keep this on hand to excuse my next lapse of attention. "I'm a yellow lab in an exhibit room at a bubble machine makers convention".
	10:45am Phillippe: ↳ love2laf @10:44 damn, I forgot to trademark that! See what I mean?
