	🧩 3:21pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @3:18 or kombucha o'clock in my world. oh wait. it's kombucha o'clock. i'll be back.
	🧩 3:21pm tim: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:21 Right! I bet this song is a lot of fun to play.
	3:22pm Carmichael: ↳ Song: "Point that Thing Somewhere Else" by "The Courtneys" Driving drone guitar!
	🧩 3:23pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ tim @3:21 It's so sad to think we'll never see The Clean again.
	3:24pm Bas NL: ↳ Song: "Point that Thing Somewhere Else" by "The Courtneys" Makes me think of The Cult. I like it.

	🧩 3:24pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Point that Thing Somewhere Else" by "The Courtneys" *applause*
	🧩 3:25pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Walk My Way" by "Skywave" i'll be honest i thought this was "i will follow."
	3:25pm Avspuk: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:24 Ditto
	🧩 3:26pm chresti: Hi Scott and scottellites!
	3:26pm bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): heyyyyyyyyyyyyy
	🧩 3:28pm tim: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:23 It is sad. I've shared this story before. A few years ago my daughter was hanging out with her friend who's dad is a New Zealander. Music came up with the dad and I started going on and on about the Clean. He was all like "huh?" I then explained who they were and he gave a polite "I'll have to check them out". I honestly thought the Clean were a household name in NZ like The Beatles or Prince. I guess not - hahaha!
	3:30pm bleubombersune: Scott good afternoon all Scottolytes late to the party
	🧩 3:33pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): My Clean story is kind of the opposite and I can only tell part of it here, but one day in therapy I told my therapist that I had been to see an amazing concert with my little brother. I couldn't shut up about it. He said who was it and when I said The Clean he said "the band from New Zealand?" I knew something was up (he was not someone you'd expect to know The Clean) and sure enough I eventually figured out the connection. I'll respect privacy and not name names, but by coincidence one of the band was also seeing my therapist. I can even now remember crossing paths with him in the waiting room but didn't really put it all together at the time.
	3:34pm Alvy Singer: ↳ tim @3:28 I'm assuming he didn't know The Pin Group either! :)
	🧩 3:35pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ tim @3:28 I did once have a student from NZ who said her dad liked them. Kind of like the student from Japan who called YMO dad rock. (A friend from Germany said the same thing abt Kraftwerk ha ha.)
	3:36pm Carmichael: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:35 Some people just need to get them some cultcha
	3:36pm bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:35 haaha love that
	🧩 3:37pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Carmichael @3:36 I dunno. I've been a dad for a long time so I guess technically all the music I like is dad rock, at least to my kids.
	🧩 3:38pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:37 That really vastly expands the dad-rock canon.
	🧩 3:38pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @3:38 freeform parenting yo
	3:40pm Ben in Newark: Ah, the old musical Ouija board
	3:41pm Carmichael: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:37 My daughters asked me why I listened to "weird music" all the time. In turn, I asked them "why do you blindly accept what commercial radio gives you?" They were confused, but I hope I planted a thought or two.
	🧩 3:42pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Carmichael @3:41 It all comes around eventually.
	3:44pm bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): i'm about to help a friend run the last week of a 4 week summer camp they've been running for kids age 8-12. apparently there have been collaborative playlists between the counselors and the kids. i think we will be shuffling taylor swift, billie eilish, kate bush and YMO in two weeks. i don't know what else they listen to???
	🧩 3:46pm tim: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:35 Haha! That's great.
	🧩 3:46pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Scott and magnificent people!
	3:47pm mrdonutsu: ↳ Song: "High on the Job" by "Workers Comp" Now it's a Thursday
	3:47pm Matt en Queens: Howdy Scott and all! Love this song.
	🧩 3:49pm tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:38 I was at the park with my kids one time. There was another dad there reading Jesse Jarnow's YLT book. I'm a little vague on what dad rock is but I'm YLT is. Or else Jesse's book it "Dad Lit".
	🧩 3:50pm tim: ↳ tim @3:49 I meant to write "but I'm confident now that YLT is".
	🧩 3:52pm Handy Haversack: ↳ tim @3:49 Not all dads but SOME dads ...
	3:52pm bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): ↳ Song: "The Hallucination Swamp" by "Violent Squid" i love the name of this song. this is what my job felt like on tuesday when it was so dang hot
	3:52pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Song: "High on the Job" by "Workers Comp" Do you understand?
	3:52pm Carmichael: ↳ tim @3:50 We should all get together and publicly embrace Taylor Swift. Boy, will THAT screw with the kids' heads.
	🧩 3:53pm tim: ↳ PaulRobeson1924 @3:52 I wonder if one caused the other?
	3:54pm bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): ↳ Carmichael @3:52 once i started viewing taylor swift as an author of young adult fiction that is performed instead of bound in a book i had a better appreciation for her. she's like agatha christie... profilic writer, sort of tells the same story over and over again with a few new details. not my cup of tea but whatever
	🧩 3:56pm tim: ↳ Carmichael @3:52 Hahaha! I actually have no problem with Taylor Swift. She's a pop star and she's doing exactly what pop stars do. I'm all for my kids listening to it. But if my kids were to listen to some unlistenable crap like Arcade Fire of Bon Iver or some shit, we'd have to have a talk.
	3:58pm Carmichael: ↳ tim @3:56 I don't have a problem either, although it's fairly vacuous. There are worse things. Like country, ha ha
	🧩 3:59pm Handy Haversack: We have to take off -- taking the hound on an outing. Thanks, Scott! See you Saturday. And hope to see some of YOU fine people as well!
	4:00pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ tim @3:53 Yes and I wonder what they had for breakfast
	4:01pm Yes: ↳ Song: "God Dances in your Eyes" by "Beings" nice
	4:04pm Ben in Newark: ↳ Song: "God Dances in your Eyes" by "Beings" Today in Jim White news, I heard he's got yet another new band in the works, featuring Stephen Malkmus, Matt Sweeney, and Emmett Kelly. He doesn't sleep!
	4:04pm rx "rexy" scabin: @tim it depends on where you live.
	🧩 4:07pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @3:59 See you Saturday, HH.
	🧩 4:07pm Listener Jonny in MA............. d-_-b: loving it Scott!!!
	4:07pm rx "rexy" scabin: @Ben in Newark anticipation.
	🧩 4:08pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Ben in Newark @4:04 I saw that too. I can't believe how much work he has going on at the moment. How does he do it?
	4:09pm luka: believe it, toots!!
	4:10pm Yes: loving it, scott
	4:10pm PaulRobeson1924: WATCH OUT
	4:10pm PaulRobeson1924: CAN’T TAKE NO CHANCES
	4:10pm joe mulligan: ↳ Song: "Uncle Jim" by "Sun City Girls" where does that "i cant believe it its 1984" sample come from? this joke's got legs
	4:12pm tofuvavohu: ↳ Song: "Uncle Jim" by "Sun City Girls" Whoa, I had no idea Uncle Jim went this far back!
	🧩 4:12pm Listener Jonny in MA............. d-_-b: ↳ Song: "Uncle Jim" by "Sun City Girls" heh...

	🧩 4:23pm tim: ↳ Song: "Warmth of the Sun" by "Pye Corner Audio" This is pretty dang cool!
	4:23pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Song: "Warmth of the Sun" by "Pye Corner Audio" Groovy.
	4:24pm Matt en Queens: I see Bob Newhart passed away. I spent many stoned hours watching his shows, playing “hi
	4:25pm Matt en Queens: Bob”
	4:27pm laurapanic: ↳ Song: "Sunshine On My Shoulders" by "Living Guitars Plus... making mothers cry since the 70s
	4:28pm People Like Us: ↳ Song: "Sunshine On My Shoulders" by "Living Guitars Plus... can we hear this a second time?
	4:29pm mrdonutsu: ↳ Song: "Sunshine On My Shoulders" by "Living Guitars Plus... This is so close to Spiritualized.
	🧩 4:29pm Karl: I am ready for the second half. Put me in, Coach Williams!
	4:29pm laurapanic: well howdy dad rock fans. Just catching up! My children think all my music sounds very angry. They do not enjoy it. My partner tries to show them clips of my band and they haaaaaate it.

	🧩 4:45pm tim: ↳ Song: "The Last Electioneer & Goodbye Ancient Homeland" ... Excellent!
	4:46pm laurapanic: ↳ tim @4:32 my kids get in the car and as the stereo kicks in at A BILLION LEVEL VOLUME they freak the heck out "WHY is it so LOUD?" Bless them, their soft little hearts. It is my job to get them used to it.
	4:46pm laurapanic: ↳ bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢) @4:33 mine often say "we should come see your BAND!!" and I reply "well...its not for everyone, and I WILL scream at you". None have yet attended. Thank god.
	4:48pm nathan: ↳ Song: "The Last Electioneer & Goodbye Ancient Homeland" ... love this. the chorus sounds like Brian Eno singing "I've Just Seen a Face"
	4:49pm bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): ↳ laurapanic @4:46 i'm laughing imagining a bunch of children cheering after you say "I WILL scream at you"
	4:50pm Picante Mint: ↳ Song: "Integer Truce" by "Cell\Borg" I feel like I'm on a voyage

BUT, I was referring to coworkers. They do not like the propsec tof the screaming, either it turns out. One said "So nothing like, Joni Mitchell huh?"
	🧩 4:50pm tim: ↳ laurapanic @4:46 Hahaha! That happens to us too. I always forget to turn down the stereo. My kids usually respond with a paternal "daa-aaaad". As in "shouldn't you know better that it's not good for your ears"
	4:51pm laurapanic: ↳ tim @4:50 I mean sometimes the kids are NOT alright. They are definitely sometimes so SQUARE. Jeez!

	🧩 4:54pm tim: ↳ laurapanic @4:51 Hahaha! Yeah, my kids are all "safety first!" Who the hell did they get that from? Not me - haha.

	🧩 4:57pm tim: ↳ Song: "Drapes" by "Jenny Mae" This is really great!
	4:59pm alanSixº: ↳ Song: "Chaos Girls" by "Soup Activists" great show today scotty

	5:03pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ alanSixº @4:59 I agree, 100%
	5:08pm The Butterman: Hi. Sounding great, Scott. Great soundtrack for our trip back from New Hope, PA just now where they got me a parking ticket for $35 bucks despite me paying $7 dollars in the meter system to park all day. Gotta call em tomorrow. The bastards!
	5:08pm Franco Twinkie: Hi Scott! I was just at Office Depot getting some copies and X-Acto blades. I asked where the restroom was, and the cashier told me it was out of order, so I peed in their parking lot. Was I out of line?
	🧩 5:09pm CVB from SYR: ↳ Song: "Enter The Fish Man" by "Ever-Lovin' Jug Band" These guys have been rocking a lot of FMU shows lately. So good.

	5:13pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Franco Twinkie @5:08 Afternoon’ Mr.Franco.
	🧩 5:14pm Matt from Springfield on Amtrak: (Waves hello to the Mothership at JC…)
	🧩 5:17pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Franco Twinkie @5:08 As long as you got out of line to piss, and didn’t go in the checkout line…
	5:17pm Yes: Sounding goood
	5:18pm I.M.Pufnstuff: ↳ Franco Twinkie @5:08 Did you pee on the parking line or over the line?
	5:19pm The Butterman: Franco, dogs are allowed to, so… I mean you WERE a paying customer
	5:21pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ I.M.Pufnstuff @5:18 I was parked in my designated space, but the piss puddle might have traveled, as it often does.
	🧩 5:21pm tim: I remember an Israeli musician who was a regular commenter about 10-12 years ago. Was it Yair Yona? Does anyone remember?
	5:23pm I.M.Pufnstuff: No foul then. You cannot be accountable for gravity, wind or rotational forces sending your urine over the designated parking zone.
	5:23pm Scott Williams: ↳ tim @5:21 yep, that was Yair, he's a good friend of the station's, and a great guitar player
	5:23pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ The Butterman @5:19 I'm a REWARDS customer!
	🧩 5:24pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ tim @5:21 Musician and friend to the station Yair Yona. He posted a couple years ago but not too much nowadays.
	🧩 5:25pm tim: ↳ Scott Williams @5:23 Oh cool. That was lovely. I hope he drops in sometime.
	🧩 5:25pm tim: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:24 Excellent! Thanks.
	5:27pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ I.M.Pufnstuff @5:23 Thank you. The scientific reasoning your argument settles it.
	5:31pm I.M.Pufnstuff: ↳ Franco Twinkie @5:27 Science flys you to the Moon. Religion flys you into buildings.
	5:35pm I.M.Pufnstuff: ↳ Song: "We Could Be Flying" by "Scott Walker" The CIA could use this song during waterboarding sessions to intensify the pain.
	5:36pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ I.M.Pufnstuff @5:31 And a full bladder can get you a ticket faster than parking in a handicapped zone, I've heard.
	5:37pm I.M.Pufnstuff: I hope you're not the guy who parks in Handicapped Spaces while Handicapped People make Handicapped Faces...
	🧩 5:38pm chris in the redwoods: love Scott Walker. whole show's a banger, DJ Scott.
	5:38pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ I.M.Pufnstuff @5:37 I don't.
	5:54pm PaulRobeson1924: I need a restroom
	5:55pm PaulRobeson1924: Quickly, please
	5:56pm PaulRobeson1924: @Franco: while we got a minute. I’m wondering what was it that man in The Doors said to you?

	3:22pm Carmichael: ↳ Song: "Point that Thing Somewhere Else" by "The Courtneys" Driving drone guitar!
	🧩 3:23pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ tim @3:21 It's so sad to think we'll never see The Clean again.

	3:26pm bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): heyyyyyyyyyyyyy
	🧩 3:28pm tim: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:23 It is sad. I've shared this story before. A few years ago my daughter was hanging out with her friend who's dad is a New Zealander. Music came up with the dad and I started going on and on about the Clean. He was all like "huh?" I then explained who they were and he gave a polite "I'll have to check them out". I honestly thought the Clean were a household name in NZ like The Beatles or Prince. I guess not - hahaha!
	3:30pm bleubombersune: Scott good afternoon all Scottolytes late to the party
	🧩 3:33pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): My Clean story is kind of the opposite and I can only tell part of it here, but one day in therapy I told my therapist that I had been to see an amazing concert with my little brother. I couldn't shut up about it. He said who was it and when I said The Clean he said "the band from New Zealand?" I knew something was up (he was not someone you'd expect to know The Clean) and sure enough I eventually figured out the connection. I'll respect privacy and not name names, but by coincidence one of the band was also seeing my therapist. I can even now remember crossing paths with him in the waiting room but didn't really put it all together at the time.
	3:34pm Alvy Singer: ↳ tim @3:28 I'm assuming he didn't know The Pin Group either! :)
	🧩 3:35pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ tim @3:28 I did once have a student from NZ who said her dad liked them. Kind of like the student from Japan who called YMO dad rock. (A friend from Germany said the same thing abt Kraftwerk ha ha.)
	3:36pm Carmichael: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:35 Some people just need to get them some cultcha
	3:36pm bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:35 haaha love that
	🧩 3:37pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Carmichael @3:36 I dunno. I've been a dad for a long time so I guess technically all the music I like is dad rock, at least to my kids.
	🧩 3:38pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:37 That really vastly expands the dad-rock canon.
	🧩 3:38pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @3:38 freeform parenting yo
	3:40pm Ben in Newark: Ah, the old musical Ouija board
	3:41pm Carmichael: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:37 My daughters asked me why I listened to "weird music" all the time. In turn, I asked them "why do you blindly accept what commercial radio gives you?" They were confused, but I hope I planted a thought or two.
	🧩 3:42pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Carmichael @3:41 It all comes around eventually.
	3:44pm bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): i'm about to help a friend run the last week of a 4 week summer camp they've been running for kids age 8-12. apparently there have been collaborative playlists between the counselors and the kids. i think we will be shuffling taylor swift, billie eilish, kate bush and YMO in two weeks. i don't know what else they listen to???
	🧩 3:46pm tim: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @3:35 Haha! That's great.

	3:47pm mrdonutsu: ↳ Song: "High on the Job" by "Workers Comp" Now it's a Thursday
	3:47pm Matt en Queens: Howdy Scott and all! Love this song.
	🧩 3:49pm tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:38 I was at the park with my kids one time. There was another dad there reading Jesse Jarnow's YLT book. I'm a little vague on what dad rock is but I'm YLT is. Or else Jesse's book it "Dad Lit".
	🧩 3:50pm tim: ↳ tim @3:49 I meant to write "but I'm confident now that YLT is".

	3:52pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Song: "High on the Job" by "Workers Comp" Do you understand?
	3:52pm Carmichael: ↳ tim @3:50 We should all get together and publicly embrace Taylor Swift. Boy, will THAT screw with the kids' heads.
	🧩 3:53pm tim: ↳ PaulRobeson1924 @3:52 I wonder if one caused the other?
	3:54pm bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): ↳ Carmichael @3:52 once i started viewing taylor swift as an author of young adult fiction that is performed instead of bound in a book i had a better appreciation for her. she's like agatha christie... profilic writer, sort of tells the same story over and over again with a few new details. not my cup of tea but whatever
	🧩 3:56pm tim: ↳ Carmichael @3:52 Hahaha! I actually have no problem with Taylor Swift. She's a pop star and she's doing exactly what pop stars do. I'm all for my kids listening to it. But if my kids were to listen to some unlistenable crap like Arcade Fire of Bon Iver or some shit, we'd have to have a talk.
	3:58pm Carmichael: ↳ tim @3:56 I don't have a problem either, although it's fairly vacuous. There are worse things. Like country, ha ha
	🧩 3:59pm Handy Haversack: We have to take off -- taking the hound on an outing. Thanks, Scott! See you Saturday. And hope to see some of YOU fine people as well!

	4:46pm laurapanic: ↳ bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢) @4:33 mine often say "we should come see your BAND!!" and I reply "well...its not for everyone, and I WILL scream at you". None have yet attended. Thank god.
	4:48pm nathan: ↳ Song: "The Last Electioneer & Goodbye Ancient Homeland" ... love this. the chorus sounds like Brian Eno singing "I've Just Seen a Face"

	🧩 4:50pm tim: ↳ laurapanic @4:46 Hahaha! That happens to us too. I always forget to turn down the stereo. My kids usually respond with a paternal "daa-aaaad". As in "shouldn't you know better that it's not good for your ears"

	5:08pm Franco Twinkie: Hi Scott! I was just at Office Depot getting some copies and X-Acto blades. I asked where the restroom was, and the cashier told me it was out of order, so I peed in their parking lot. Was I out of line?

	🧩 5:21pm tim: I remember an Israeli musician who was a regular commenter about 10-12 years ago. Was it Yair Yona? Does anyone remember?
	5:23pm I.M.Pufnstuff: No foul then. You cannot be accountable for gravity, wind or rotational forces sending your urine over the designated parking zone.

	5:36pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ I.M.Pufnstuff @5:31 And a full bladder can get you a ticket faster than parking in a handicapped zone, I've heard.
	5:37pm I.M.Pufnstuff: I hope you're not the guy who parks in Handicapped Spaces while Handicapped People make Handicapped Faces...
