	10:04am love2laf: ↳ Song: "tulsa turnaround" by "Kenny Rogers and The First ... Well, I'm guessing my parents had no idea of this side of Kenny Rogers!
	10:04am Clincher16": Well, that was a switch...!
	10:05am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "tulsa turnaround" by "Kenny Rogers and The First ... "If a man's gotta eat fried chicken, then he's gonna get greasy!"
	10:06am Franco Twinkie: If any singular entity has the power to challenge parity, it's Trader Joes. Those daily free samples and fair priced yogurt will test the resolve of anyone with an ideological bone in their body.
	10:06am unpopularfred: ↳ The Oscar @10:05 so true
	10:07am StringOFperils: I feel ideologically boned
	10:08am Zip7: ↳ Song: "tulsa turnaround" by "Kenny Rogers and The First ... In 1970 the Tulsa World sent two reporters out with Beatles wigs (!) to see what kind of reaction they got. They were hassled incessantly and threatened with beatings a couple of times.
	10:08am HyperDose: This ain't Texas...ain't no hold 'em! 🃏🤠
	10:09am Chief Guy: Only publicists and media click baiters said anything about Beyoncé’s country record.

	10:09am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): ↳ Trouble @10:02 cool. trouble, do you know ithel colquhoun? the tate acquired 5000 pieces of her work a few years ago.she's a freaky esoteric surrealist i just learned about a few weeks ago.
	10:10am StringOFperils: ↳ Zip7 @10:08 It was becauxe they chose two guys who looked like Ned Beatty and M. Emmet Walsh, and the wigs were just to much.
	10:11am gwtg: A college friend met Kenny Rogers when she was 13 at a hotel. He tried to convince her to come to his room.
	10:12am Mr. Corey LLC: Trader Joe's is a glorified snack food store with a very good marketing department.
	10:13am Toothgrinder Tom: Et tu, Trader Joe’s?
	10:13am Roberto: ↳ Song: "fairytale" by "the pointer sisters" Aw shit, Country Pointers!
	10:14am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "fairytale" by "the pointer sisters" I was momentarily excited that the first word of this song was "alpaca."
	10:14am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @10:13 Those gals had range!
	10:14am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @10:14 (Pun unintended)
	10:21am pmcWhenever: i just dropped in to see what market conditions your profit sharing conditions are rushin artificial colour intelligence is in, man/robot/them.
	10:22am listener james from westwood: ↳ Song: "color him father" by "Linda Martell" How bloody wonderful is this song? Very bloody wonderful.
	10:25am greg g: The sound of Hope Sandoval and Mazzy Star... so nice
	10:26am Jason from Houston: Heyyyyyyy there.
	10:27am JimmyTallow: The other Johnny Marr!
	10:27am Mark91: Thanks for the John Randolph Marr. I have never heard him before. Good stuff!!
	10:33am Ben in Newark: ↳ Mark91 @10:27 I first heard this song on Light in the Attic's Country Funk comp, it has a lot of great music in a similar vein
	10:35am Ben in Newark: ↳ Ben in Newark @10:33 Whoops, didn't see the full playlist details. I stand by my previous comment though, that comp is great!
	10:35am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Ben in Newark @10:33 I though this was a Blue Cheer original - silly me.
	10:44am Jeffrey from west Florida: Thanks Ms. T ~ for all the voodoo you do. Catching Rising Appalachia tonight in St. Pete. They’re like if Patti Smith Alison Krauss and Dr. John had a Baby. I’ll look for Trouble Causers there !
	10:50am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone.
	10:50am Mark91: Love the reggae/New Age Steppers. Any chance of playing Eek-A-Mouse? Yes, that IS the performer's name.
	10:51am Zip7: ↳ StringOFperils @10:10 I was called up for jury duty in the Bronx about 15 years ago, and the bailiff (?) looked just like Fred Mertz with a Beatle wig. He even had his necktie tucked into the top of his pants. I spent the afternoon trying not to stare at him
	10:54am Trouble: @ mark91, i don't have eek a mouse with me this week, maybe next?
	10:57am Handy Haversack: Yeah, KCR has really stepped up.
	10:58am Handy Haversack: The history of sending heavily armed shock troops against kids ...
	10:59am N'Lo: Wow I didn’t think of the KCR effect - and my sister used to work there! yes, it brought back all the prior Columbia activism and more.
	10:59am A Bee: claps
	10:59am juanitocabroncito: Very well said!
	11:00am The Oscar: Proud of kids at my alma mater Emerson up here in Boston for joining the fray-- it's all just so crazy.
	11:00am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Happening at Emory rn. Thanks, Trouble, for this PSA! I’m so proud of them too.
	11:00am Stevel: Right on.
	11:00am Ben in Newark: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:35 I don't think either of those versions are the original, but I love both. It's been recorded by a number of artists, definitely a product of the Nashville songwriting + recording machine
	11:01am Chief Guy: Definitely need to forgive student loans too. Otherwise students would be deterred from protesting, which is their main purpose in life, and workers need to remember this and fund this with their taxes.
	11:01am Handy Haversack: I'm proud of them, too, and deeply ashamed that my paychecks come from the trustees of Columbia. The e-mails from the president to the "community" are the worst: cowardly, shameful, victim-blaming censorious, and lickspittle neoliberal garbage.
	11:01am drywall: In New Jersey, Princeton students set up an encampment this morning. Two students were arrested and barred from campus within moments. https://www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2024/04/princeton-news-adpol-gaza-solidarity-encampment-launches-mccosh-courtyard
	11:02am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Ben in Newark @11:00 written by Mac Davis and "Dealney" Bramlett!
	11:05am Ben in Newark: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:02 Thank you! The listener brain trust is strong
	11:06am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Woo-hoo! One of my favorite Arthur Russell jams! Positively joyous!
	11:07am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Nothing like this song. It just soars.
	11:09am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Here it comes…
	11:09am Casey Yonkers: You can't compare students protesting bad things like apartheid or an unjustified war with these students who are protesting against what exactly? What is the bad thing? These protesters are saying they are okay with, that they support a gang coming into a music festival and attacking and killing and raping random music lovers. . That is the bad thing that really happened . . . They should protest against that . . You should not support that.
	11:10am Listener Bryan (the Professor): They are protesting a genocide. Not supporting Hamas.
	11:11am StringOFperils: ↳ Casey Yonkers @11:09 You seem to be willfully overlooking a very methodical and merciless genocide being enacted in response to that event.
	11:12am steveo: groove IS in the heart! loving this set :)
	11:12am Trouble: @ casey yonkers: of course they are not saying that! they are protesting the genocide of over 30,000 Palestinians, who are being bombed and starved.
	11:12am Listener Bryan (the Professor): And they are protesting university investment in genocide’s enablers. Universities have no business investing in war. It subjects them to masters of war, which is what we are witnessing now.
	11:13am Listener Bryan (the Professor): What an amazing transition, Trouble!
	11:14am HyperDose: ↳ Song: "boogie motion" by "beautiful bend" Got me blushing!
	11:15am βrian: ↳ Zip7 @10:51 Tucked in at sternum level, that is?
	11:17am Zip7: ↳ βrian @11:15 almost!
	11:17am steveo: ↳ Song: "africano" by "timmy thomas" oh yeah... pre-clickied
	11:29am Handy Haversack: Trouble, I've had too much going on over here to comment much, but the show has been just fantastic today.
	11:29am prof.fuzz: did someone just say "yeehaw"???
	11:29am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you, Trouble and Everyone. I must go mold teachers' minds.
	11:30am βrian: ↳ Song: "the jam jar song" by "ingrid" I once had a British housemate who drove a Lancia. "Virtually, the only car worth driving," he said.
	11:30am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Heyo. Late start today, so late tonight again.
	11:31am disco_nap_: ↳ Casey Yonkers @11:09 Israel is an apartheid State and apartheid is one of the “bad things” that are worth protesting according to you.
	11:32am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Trouble @9:48 Thanks for the linky!
	11:33am estebangrande: ↳ Song: "Agora Ou Nunca Mais" by "Ana Mazzoti" loving this, never heard of her before. thanks Trouble
	11:33am love2laf: Must shower now, thank you DJ Trouble, as always, your show elevates the day to a whole new level. 'Til next week fellow Trouble'd friends, thanks for the company.
	11:34am disco_nap_: ↳ Trouble @9:48 Thanks, Trouble! I have been thinking a lot lately about what this artwork depicts: “This Woman’s Work.”
	11:35am Listener Bryan (the Professor): I thought I was going to sleep on the train but this has just been too good to let that happen.
	11:36am traven: It can certainly be said that the US government is enabling what is going on in Gaza.
	11:37am Trouble: @handyhaversack; merci!
	11:39am disco_nap_: ↳ Trouble @11:37 “Keep doing what you’re doing, I like what you’re doing.” - me @ you about this set
	11:41am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Harassment of Jewish students and vandalizing Jewish-owned stores and businesses is not legitimate political protest. Yelling "from the river to the sea" is a call for genocide against Jews.
	11:42am Jim in MA: Good morning Trouble & all Troubled listeners!
	11:43am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Cornell being OK with a professor who called October 7th "exhilarating" and then doing the dippy thing of putting him on leave instead of firing is also inexcusable. I already told Cornell -- one of my alma maters -- not one dime from me until they get their shit together RE the harassment and outright intimidation of Jews on campus.
	11:44am Lucky: Why is “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” a call for genocide?
	11:45am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Lucky @11:44 Go read the Hamas charter. It means that there will be no Jews in what is now Israel. It is literally right there in the charter.
	11:46am 2666ad: Harassment and vandalism should be dealt with as it arises on a case by case basis, just as it normally is. These protests are neither. Hope this helps!
	11:46am steveo: We recently saw an interesting textile art exhibition at the Met -- Ancient Peruvian and contemprory weaving www.metmuseum.org... -- through June 16
	11:47am Listener Bryan (the Professor): “River to the sea” is a call for mobility/freedom in ancestral lands. It may be interpreted differently by others but it’s used much like singing “we shall overcome,” which was a call for freedom not the genocide of the oppressor. At every protest I’ve seen documented, Jewish students and faculty are well represented. Seder happened at most. These have been educational and ecumenical movements. Reporting to the contrary tends to focus on outsiders and outliers.
	11:47am Chief Guy: It doesn’t matter whatever it is or what is shouted or what the underlying message is. If it’s a student protest, it is good, and we should support it.
	11:47am Lucky: There seems to be a conception that any extremist action invalidates any ideological arguments (like freedom or equity) even vaguely related to said action or groups. That's specious by definition. This reeks of the "Willie Horton" debate strategy.
	11:47am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:47 That's patently untrue.
	11:48am Chief Guy: Yeah but Willie Horton raped a woman, so are we going to listen to him?
	11:49am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Chief Guy @11:47 No, just because some students got a hair up their ass does not give any student group any right to do anything. I keep thinking about the Cornell Campus Crusade for Christ, who always set up stations outside of Jewish services on campus to give out New Testaments.
	11:50am Listener Bryan (the Professor): The why are Jewish colleagues joining the chorus? I encourage you to read these letters in response to the police action at NYU. Jewish colleagues and parents are well represented here. Opposing Israeli policy is not antisemitic and neither is wanting to be free. https://facultyforpalestine.education/statements/faculty-letters-to-the-office-of-the-president-and-the-office-of-the-provost/
	11:52am Lucky: These students are not Hamas. The vast majority of people in the Gaza strip are not Hamas. Why is standing up to call the university you attend to stop funding this killing - which is certainly not central to any educational mission - wrong?
	11:52am βrian: Continental Subway is boarding: wfmu.org...
	11:53am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:50 Sorry, I disagree with you. All I'm seeing is a bunch of kids chanting phrases that they don't know the history of. There have been tons and tons of signs at these protests that are outright anti-Semitic, not just anti-Israeli. And let's not forget that this was orchestrated by Hamas -- what the fuck did they think would happen after October 7th? This is a governing body that wanted to inflict the most on its OWN CITIZENS in order to stir up a reaction. Hamas operates with and colludes with its own citizenry. The educational system teaches Jew hatred from the cradle.
	11:53am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Trouble!
	11:54am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Lucky @11:52 Um, among other things, they were AOK with a faculty member calling the mass slaughter of Jews "exhilarating" and were OK with it. Also please show me where I have to give money to institutions whose policies I don't agree with.
	11:55am Jason from Houston: Thank youuuuuu, Trouble.
	11:55am bradford: Thanks as always, Trouble.
	11:55am steveo: thank you, Trouble! Glad I could listen for a spell!
	11:56am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: And then there's the issue of "I want to do civil disobedience without consequences." Kiddos, if you violate University policies and/or break laws and get caught, you may get arrested or expelled. No private entity owes anyone a platform.
	11:56am Micheal: Merci, Trouble!!
	11:56am Listener Bryan (the Professor): I have encountered a lot of people in the last while who were taught hatred of the cradle but they weren’t Palestinian. That rhetoric is used to justify the ongoing murder of children. Please rethink.
	11:57am Steve Del Sol: ↳ Lucky @11:52 The thing everyone forgets when discussing this issue is that it started with the Roman occupation which went on for over 100 years. It ended with the enslavement of the Hebrews within the coliseum. The new testament was written at this time. It is THE POPE that needs to fess up.
	11:57am Trouble: thanks for tuning in this morning!
	11:58am jinjabredboy: Thanks Trouble - it's been a wonderful show
	11:58am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:56 Please remind me about the massive wave of Jewish suicide bombers in Germany or any Middle Eastern nation.
	11:58am disco_nap_: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜 @11:56 If you have access to IG, I would recommend you check out this video if a Jewish Columbia student speaking about it: www.instagram.com...
	11:58am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Thank you, Trouble, for a show to keep some of the sorrow at bay.
	11:58am StringOFperils: Thanks, Trouble. Good luck with your world, everybody.
	11:59am Chris in Kensington Bklyn: Amazing show today. Thanks, Trouble!
	11:59am HyperDose: Thanks, Trouble. Let's hope the world figures itself out sooner than later!
	11:59am disco_nap_: ↳ Trouble @11:57 Thanks Trouble, you rule!
	11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: Thank you, Trouble.
	11:59am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): thanks trouble <3
	11:59am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Three moons you’re just going full islamophobic here. Not going to engage further.
	11:59am Handy Haversack: I'll be at Radio Star. Greenpoint represent!
	12:00pm pot8o: thanks trouble! have a great week everyone!
	12:01pm Chief Guy: Bryan lost

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.

	10:04am love2laf: ↳ Song: "tulsa turnaround" by "Kenny Rogers and The First ... Well, I'm guessing my parents had no idea of this side of Kenny Rogers!
	10:04am Clincher16": Well, that was a switch...!
	10:05am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "tulsa turnaround" by "Kenny Rogers and The First ... "If a man's gotta eat fried chicken, then he's gonna get greasy!"
	10:06am Franco Twinkie: If any singular entity has the power to challenge parity, it's Trader Joes. Those daily free samples and fair priced yogurt will test the resolve of anyone with an ideological bone in their body.
	10:06am unpopularfred: ↳ The Oscar @10:05 so true
	10:07am StringOFperils: I feel ideologically boned
	10:08am Zip7: ↳ Song: "tulsa turnaround" by "Kenny Rogers and The First ... In 1970 the Tulsa World sent two reporters out with Beatles wigs (!) to see what kind of reaction they got. They were hassled incessantly and threatened with beatings a couple of times.
	10:08am HyperDose: This ain't Texas...ain't no hold 'em! 🃏🤠
	10:09am Chief Guy: Only publicists and media click baiters said anything about Beyoncé’s country record.

	10:10am StringOFperils: ↳ Zip7 @10:08 It was becauxe they chose two guys who looked like Ned Beatty and M. Emmet Walsh, and the wigs were just to much.
	10:11am gwtg: A college friend met Kenny Rogers when she was 13 at a hotel. He tried to convince her to come to his room.
	10:12am Mr. Corey LLC: Trader Joe's is a glorified snack food store with a very good marketing department.
	10:13am Toothgrinder Tom: Et tu, Trader Joe’s?
	10:13am Roberto: ↳ Song: "fairytale" by "the pointer sisters" Aw shit, Country Pointers!
	10:14am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "fairytale" by "the pointer sisters" I was momentarily excited that the first word of this song was "alpaca."
	10:14am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @10:13 Those gals had range!
	10:14am Roberto: ↳ Roberto @10:14 (Pun unintended)
	10:21am pmcWhenever: i just dropped in to see what market conditions your profit sharing conditions are rushin artificial colour intelligence is in, man/robot/them.
	10:22am listener james from westwood: ↳ Song: "color him father" by "Linda Martell" How bloody wonderful is this song? Very bloody wonderful.
	10:25am greg g: The sound of Hope Sandoval and Mazzy Star... so nice
	10:26am Jason from Houston: Heyyyyyyy there.
	10:27am JimmyTallow: The other Johnny Marr!
	10:27am Mark91: Thanks for the John Randolph Marr. I have never heard him before. Good stuff!!
	10:33am Ben in Newark: ↳ Mark91 @10:27 I first heard this song on Light in the Attic's Country Funk comp, it has a lot of great music in a similar vein
	10:35am Ben in Newark: ↳ Ben in Newark @10:33 Whoops, didn't see the full playlist details. I stand by my previous comment though, that comp is great!
	10:35am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Ben in Newark @10:33 I though this was a Blue Cheer original - silly me.
	10:44am Jeffrey from west Florida: Thanks Ms. T ~ for all the voodoo you do. Catching Rising Appalachia tonight in St. Pete. They’re like if Patti Smith Alison Krauss and Dr. John had a Baby. I’ll look for Trouble Causers there !
	10:50am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone.
	10:50am Mark91: Love the reggae/New Age Steppers. Any chance of playing Eek-A-Mouse? Yes, that IS the performer's name.
	10:51am Zip7: ↳ StringOFperils @10:10 I was called up for jury duty in the Bronx about 15 years ago, and the bailiff (?) looked just like Fred Mertz with a Beatle wig. He even had his necktie tucked into the top of his pants. I spent the afternoon trying not to stare at him
	10:54am Trouble: @ mark91, i don't have eek a mouse with me this week, maybe next?
	10:57am Handy Haversack: Yeah, KCR has really stepped up.
	10:58am Handy Haversack: The history of sending heavily armed shock troops against kids ...
	10:59am N'Lo: Wow I didn’t think of the KCR effect - and my sister used to work there! yes, it brought back all the prior Columbia activism and more.
	10:59am A Bee: claps
	10:59am juanitocabroncito: Very well said!
	11:00am The Oscar: Proud of kids at my alma mater Emerson up here in Boston for joining the fray-- it's all just so crazy.
	11:00am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Happening at Emory rn. Thanks, Trouble, for this PSA! I’m so proud of them too.
	11:00am Stevel: Right on.
	11:00am Ben in Newark: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:35 I don't think either of those versions are the original, but I love both. It's been recorded by a number of artists, definitely a product of the Nashville songwriting + recording machine
	11:01am Chief Guy: Definitely need to forgive student loans too. Otherwise students would be deterred from protesting, which is their main purpose in life, and workers need to remember this and fund this with their taxes.
	11:01am Handy Haversack: I'm proud of them, too, and deeply ashamed that my paychecks come from the trustees of Columbia. The e-mails from the president to the "community" are the worst: cowardly, shameful, victim-blaming censorious, and lickspittle neoliberal garbage.
	11:01am drywall: In New Jersey, Princeton students set up an encampment this morning. Two students were arrested and barred from campus within moments. https://www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2024/04/princeton-news-adpol-gaza-solidarity-encampment-launches-mccosh-courtyard
	11:02am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Ben in Newark @11:00 written by Mac Davis and "Dealney" Bramlett!
	11:05am Ben in Newark: ↳ Charles in Chicago @11:02 Thank you! The listener brain trust is strong
	11:06am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Woo-hoo! One of my favorite Arthur Russell jams! Positively joyous!
	11:07am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Nothing like this song. It just soars.
	11:09am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Here it comes…
	11:09am Casey Yonkers: You can't compare students protesting bad things like apartheid or an unjustified war with these students who are protesting against what exactly? What is the bad thing? These protesters are saying they are okay with, that they support a gang coming into a music festival and attacking and killing and raping random music lovers. . That is the bad thing that really happened . . . They should protest against that . . You should not support that.
	11:10am Listener Bryan (the Professor): They are protesting a genocide. Not supporting Hamas.
	11:11am StringOFperils: ↳ Casey Yonkers @11:09 You seem to be willfully overlooking a very methodical and merciless genocide being enacted in response to that event.
	11:12am steveo: groove IS in the heart! loving this set :)
	11:12am Trouble: @ casey yonkers: of course they are not saying that! they are protesting the genocide of over 30,000 Palestinians, who are being bombed and starved.
	11:12am Listener Bryan (the Professor): And they are protesting university investment in genocide’s enablers. Universities have no business investing in war. It subjects them to masters of war, which is what we are witnessing now.
	11:13am Listener Bryan (the Professor): What an amazing transition, Trouble!
	11:14am HyperDose: ↳ Song: "boogie motion" by "beautiful bend" Got me blushing!
	11:15am βrian: ↳ Zip7 @10:51 Tucked in at sternum level, that is?
	11:17am Zip7: ↳ βrian @11:15 almost!
	11:17am steveo: ↳ Song: "africano" by "timmy thomas" oh yeah... pre-clickied
	11:29am Handy Haversack: Trouble, I've had too much going on over here to comment much, but the show has been just fantastic today.
	11:29am prof.fuzz: did someone just say "yeehaw"???
	11:29am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you, Trouble and Everyone. I must go mold teachers' minds.
	11:30am βrian: ↳ Song: "the jam jar song" by "ingrid" I once had a British housemate who drove a Lancia. "Virtually, the only car worth driving," he said.
	11:30am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Heyo. Late start today, so late tonight again.
	11:31am disco_nap_: ↳ Casey Yonkers @11:09 Israel is an apartheid State and apartheid is one of the “bad things” that are worth protesting according to you.
	11:32am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Trouble @9:48 Thanks for the linky!
	11:33am estebangrande: ↳ Song: "Agora Ou Nunca Mais" by "Ana Mazzoti" loving this, never heard of her before. thanks Trouble
	11:33am love2laf: Must shower now, thank you DJ Trouble, as always, your show elevates the day to a whole new level. 'Til next week fellow Trouble'd friends, thanks for the company.
	11:34am disco_nap_: ↳ Trouble @9:48 Thanks, Trouble! I have been thinking a lot lately about what this artwork depicts: “This Woman’s Work.”
	11:35am Listener Bryan (the Professor): I thought I was going to sleep on the train but this has just been too good to let that happen.
	11:36am traven: It can certainly be said that the US government is enabling what is going on in Gaza.
	11:37am Trouble: @handyhaversack; merci!
	11:39am disco_nap_: ↳ Trouble @11:37 “Keep doing what you’re doing, I like what you’re doing.” - me @ you about this set
	11:41am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Harassment of Jewish students and vandalizing Jewish-owned stores and businesses is not legitimate political protest. Yelling "from the river to the sea" is a call for genocide against Jews.
	11:42am Jim in MA: Good morning Trouble & all Troubled listeners!
	11:43am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: Cornell being OK with a professor who called October 7th "exhilarating" and then doing the dippy thing of putting him on leave instead of firing is also inexcusable. I already told Cornell -- one of my alma maters -- not one dime from me until they get their shit together RE the harassment and outright intimidation of Jews on campus.
	11:44am Lucky: Why is “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” a call for genocide?
	11:45am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Lucky @11:44 Go read the Hamas charter. It means that there will be no Jews in what is now Israel. It is literally right there in the charter.
	11:46am 2666ad: Harassment and vandalism should be dealt with as it arises on a case by case basis, just as it normally is. These protests are neither. Hope this helps!
	11:46am steveo: We recently saw an interesting textile art exhibition at the Met -- Ancient Peruvian and contemprory weaving www.metmuseum.org... -- through June 16
	11:47am Listener Bryan (the Professor): “River to the sea” is a call for mobility/freedom in ancestral lands. It may be interpreted differently by others but it’s used much like singing “we shall overcome,” which was a call for freedom not the genocide of the oppressor. At every protest I’ve seen documented, Jewish students and faculty are well represented. Seder happened at most. These have been educational and ecumenical movements. Reporting to the contrary tends to focus on outsiders and outliers.
	11:47am Chief Guy: It doesn’t matter whatever it is or what is shouted or what the underlying message is. If it’s a student protest, it is good, and we should support it.
	11:47am Lucky: There seems to be a conception that any extremist action invalidates any ideological arguments (like freedom or equity) even vaguely related to said action or groups. That's specious by definition. This reeks of the "Willie Horton" debate strategy.
	11:47am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:47 That's patently untrue.
	11:48am Chief Guy: Yeah but Willie Horton raped a woman, so are we going to listen to him?
	11:49am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Chief Guy @11:47 No, just because some students got a hair up their ass does not give any student group any right to do anything. I keep thinking about the Cornell Campus Crusade for Christ, who always set up stations outside of Jewish services on campus to give out New Testaments.
	11:50am Listener Bryan (the Professor): The why are Jewish colleagues joining the chorus? I encourage you to read these letters in response to the police action at NYU. Jewish colleagues and parents are well represented here. Opposing Israeli policy is not antisemitic and neither is wanting to be free. https://facultyforpalestine.education/statements/faculty-letters-to-the-office-of-the-president-and-the-office-of-the-provost/
	11:52am Lucky: These students are not Hamas. The vast majority of people in the Gaza strip are not Hamas. Why is standing up to call the university you attend to stop funding this killing - which is certainly not central to any educational mission - wrong?
	11:52am βrian: Continental Subway is boarding: wfmu.org...
	11:53am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:50 Sorry, I disagree with you. All I'm seeing is a bunch of kids chanting phrases that they don't know the history of. There have been tons and tons of signs at these protests that are outright anti-Semitic, not just anti-Israeli. And let's not forget that this was orchestrated by Hamas -- what the fuck did they think would happen after October 7th? This is a governing body that wanted to inflict the most on its OWN CITIZENS in order to stir up a reaction. Hamas operates with and colludes with its own citizenry. The educational system teaches Jew hatred from the cradle.
	11:53am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Trouble!
	11:54am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Lucky @11:52 Um, among other things, they were AOK with a faculty member calling the mass slaughter of Jews "exhilarating" and were OK with it. Also please show me where I have to give money to institutions whose policies I don't agree with.
	11:55am Jason from Houston: Thank youuuuuu, Trouble.
	11:55am bradford: Thanks as always, Trouble.
	11:55am steveo: thank you, Trouble! Glad I could listen for a spell!
	11:56am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: And then there's the issue of "I want to do civil disobedience without consequences." Kiddos, if you violate University policies and/or break laws and get caught, you may get arrested or expelled. No private entity owes anyone a platform.
	11:56am Micheal: Merci, Trouble!!
	11:56am Listener Bryan (the Professor): I have encountered a lot of people in the last while who were taught hatred of the cradle but they weren’t Palestinian. That rhetoric is used to justify the ongoing murder of children. Please rethink.
	11:57am Steve Del Sol: ↳ Lucky @11:52 The thing everyone forgets when discussing this issue is that it started with the Roman occupation which went on for over 100 years. It ended with the enslavement of the Hebrews within the coliseum. The new testament was written at this time. It is THE POPE that needs to fess up.
	11:57am Trouble: thanks for tuning in this morning!
	11:58am jinjabredboy: Thanks Trouble - it's been a wonderful show
	11:58am Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:56 Please remind me about the massive wave of Jewish suicide bombers in Germany or any Middle Eastern nation.
	11:58am disco_nap_: ↳ Threemoons 🌛🌝🌜 @11:56 If you have access to IG, I would recommend you check out this video if a Jewish Columbia student speaking about it: www.instagram.com...
	11:58am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Thank you, Trouble, for a show to keep some of the sorrow at bay.
	11:58am StringOFperils: Thanks, Trouble. Good luck with your world, everybody.
	11:59am Chris in Kensington Bklyn: Amazing show today. Thanks, Trouble!
	11:59am HyperDose: Thanks, Trouble. Let's hope the world figures itself out sooner than later!
	11:59am disco_nap_: ↳ Trouble @11:57 Thanks Trouble, you rule!
	11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: Thank you, Trouble.
	11:59am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): thanks trouble <3
	11:59am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Three moons you’re just going full islamophobic here. Not going to engage further.
	11:59am Handy Haversack: I'll be at Radio Star. Greenpoint represent!
	12:00pm pot8o: thanks trouble! have a great week everyone!
	12:01pm Chief Guy: Bryan lost
