5:51pm Doug Schulkind:

Are you gonna have this radio show here, or are you ordering Togo?

5:54pm Doug Schulkind:

Can't think of anything to else say? Or Kenya?

5:54pm Doug Schulkind:

Jesus, punning to yourself is pretty pathetic.

6:02pm Holly in NC:

Who's there?

6:03pm ndbob:

Heya Gary and Holly!

6:03pm Doug Schulkind:

Hahahaha, you got Madagascar, Gary! Go for it.

6:05pm Holly in NC:

Hi ndbob! I'm not really here (I know, I know) will try & pop in & out

6:05pm Jeff Golick:

Back with coffee and ready to Get Ready.

6:06pm Doug Schulkind:

Uganda, Jeff and now you're back here.

6:07pm Jeff Golick:

Here's a favorite of my 9-yr-old daughter's:
KNOCK KNOCK
WHO'S THERE?
DOORBELL DELIVERY SERVICE

....and scene.

6:08pm Jeff Golick:

Did you miss me, Doug? Did I make you Sierra Leone?
(really stretching here)

6:10pm Gary:

@Jeff, you're going to have to translate that for the peanut gallery over here ... :-/

6:10pm hyde:

I never should have mentioned African nations and puns, perhaps?

6:10pm Doug Schulkind:

My favorite joke of all time: What is black and white and red and can't fit through a revolving door?

Answer if we make the goal!!!

6:10pm Holly in NC:

Lonnie & Floyd new to me, and that's the only song I was able to find by them via very quick, cursory slsk search - anyone know anything?

6:10pm Doug Schulkind:

It's all your fault, hyde.

6:12pm Holly in NC:

@Doug - That is a SICK, SICK joke!!!!!!!!!!!!

6:12pm ndbob:

Tiny Topsy made several great records

6:12pm Caryn:

I feel like branching out into cities and trying some real stretch with a Ouagadougou pun.

6:12pm hyde:

@Doug story of my life!

6:12pm Jeff Golick:

@Gary: was going for a lonely/Leone thing...ugh...

6:13pm Gary:

Aha!

6:15pm Jeff Golick:

Thanks a lot, @hyde! Look what you've done to M(al)i!

6:17pm northguineahills:

Fingers crossed I can re-add a heart come this Friday.

6:17pm Stanley:

@Caryn - Soweto you waiting for?

6:20pm OuagaDOUGou:

@Caryn
I think I sprained something reading Ouagadougou!

🥁

6:22pm listener james from westwood:

I've got a terrible MS-DOS joke from probably 25 years ago:
Q. What do you get when Lee Iaccoca gets bitten by Dracula?
A. AUTOEXEC.BAT

6:22pm Caryn:

@Stanley: It's such a stretch, and so bad, I feel like I'd need those WFMU rolling papers and... stuff... to go through with it. But might as well go through with it. I mean, Ouagadougou?
*ducks and covers*

6:22pm hyde:

@Jeff ack! I will forvere be haunted by this tragic misstep.

@ngh good luck!

6:22pm Caryn:

@listener james: hah!

6:25pm ndbob:

@james that's pretty great!

6:29pm Doug Schulkind:

Apologies if I'm missing any brilliant and wise commentary! My co-host (one of my cats) decided not to help out, so I am extra busy.

6:30pm Doug Schulkind:

Remember: WHAT IS BLACK AND WHITE AND RED AND CAN'T FIT THROUGH A REVOLVING DOOR??

Answer: When we make the goal.

6:31pm hyde:

@Doug first mistake: trusting a cat

6:31pm northguineahills:

I got a call back today after sending a resume yesterday. I believe it's the same dept I used to work for (different location) before being furloughed, it would leave a wee bit of irony if that's the case

🥁

6:31pm listener james from westwood:

Cats will turn on a dime like that.

6:33pm Caryn:

Hmm, from my personal experience, a cat's "help" usually amounts to sitting on whatever you are trying to use, so I kinda feel like your cat opting out might turn out to make things run more smoothly. Unless the cat moves to actually actively hindering things.

🥁

6:33pm listener james from westwood:

Good on ya, NGH. If you're rehired, see if you can pick up where you left off for any benefits (e.g., total years of service for vacation days/benefits vesting).

6:34pm glenn:

well, after they look at the dime with disdain and groom themselves first.

6:35pm Holly in NC:

@ljfw - love your joke

@glenn - and then hairball on it

6:36pm Doug Schulkind:

@Caryn
I have one cat the likes to warm herself on my external hard drive. I guess she keeps it from falling over.

🥁

6:36pm listener james from westwood:

A friend (a dog person) posted a while back that the family cat upped his game from his usual hairball horking by puking into a floor-mounted heating duct. My friend just put her head down and started crying. Can cats smile?

6:37pm glenn:

speaking of which - www.incrediblethings.com...

6:38pm hyde:

that's zeno's paradox!

6:38pm northguineahills:

Thanks James, I believe if it works out, the benefits will restart where I left off (the subcontractor put everything on hold until at least July[coincidentally, same subcontractor])

6:39pm Holly in NC:

@Glenn - I LOVE that clip, but it also makes ME queasy. Power of suggestion ;-)

6:39pm Gary:

"Antelope Freeway, 1/2 mile ... Antelope Freeway, 1/4 mile... Antelope Freeway, 1/8 mile ... Antelope Freeway, 1/16 mile ..."

6:39pm Jeff Golick:

@glenn: copyright claim! Vid gone!

6:39pm Caryn:

@glenn: oh man, just the diatribe underneath the video about coworkes and Tropical Skittles had entertainment value.

🥁

6:40pm listener james from westwood:

I don't like seeing 47%. It reminds me of that clownzo Romney. Flush it, crush it, burn it, break it!

6:40pm northguineahills:

ok, Doug and DrummerSomites, I'm off for nom nom time. will be back for Jesse.

6:41pm Jeff Golick:

As for animal vids: currently have "squirrel attempts to hide nuts in dog's fur" on repeat: youtu.be...

6:41pm Matt from Springfield:

I swore I wasn't Ghana make a pun...!
Hey Doug and Drummers!

🥁

6:41pm listener james from westwood:

Did DJ Food do that huge audio survey of the 20th century from a while back? I think I heard part of it on the Re/Mixology show. Or am I going oobatz'? (Note: It could be both.)

6:42pm Matt from Springfield:

@LJFW: Wuh oh, 53% just keeps reminding me of that! ;)

6:42pm glenn:

also re: squirrels www.incrediblethings.com...

6:42pm Holly in NC:

@ljfw - One of my 3 cats is a nervous eater (should've named her Loretta!) and she has puked in several ducts over her surprisinglyunshortened lifetime.

6:43pm Jeff Golick:

>>>> bows down to glenn <<<<

🥁

6:43pm listener james from westwood:

Yes, I believe I am thinking of the same DJ Food, here featured on the mighty Ubuweb: www.ubu.com...

6:43pm Gary:

Yay Harafin

🥁

6:44pm listener james from westwood:

@Holly: Nerves may have had something to do with it. I don't think the family had been in the house long. The cat may not have settled in yet.

6:44pm glenn:

i know, right?

6:45pm Jeff Golick:

Ok, off to feed the cat.
Oh, and the kids, too, I guess.

Rock on, Doug, and keep those pledges rolling in for the goodness that WFMU sends out into the atmosphere! And for the punchlines! We really need the eggs!

6:46pm Caryn:

I'll segue from animal vids via the YT animal vid to just YT vids. I keep watching this on a loop (just makes me smile): www.youtube.com...

6:46pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever):

DJ Food, see, these comments always turn to food.

6:48pm Doug Schulkind:

Seeya, Jeff!

🥁

6:48pm listener james from westwood:

There is a Kenzo-shaped hole in my heart at 2pm EST every Wednesday.

🥁

6:48pm listener james from westwood:

I'll be flying to Switzerland to see a specialist about it in May.

6:49pm Holly in NC:

I still have a Charlie-sized hole. Is Charlie OK?

🥁

6:49pm listener james from westwood:

Love Power!

6:49pm cklequ:

Same hole here james....

Kenzo.... Happy to see you've got a premium. I'm looking forward to it. Yours too, Doug.

🥁

6:49pm listener james from westwood:

Charlie pledged to Tony earlier today! And I concur; love his show. I use the present tense emphatically for that.

6:51pm Matt from Springfield:

THAT'S OUR HITLER!!

6:51pm Doug Schulkind:

Charlie will be back!

Greetings to you, cklequ!

6:51pm Caryn:

@Jeff: Some of my relatives, who like to go a little extreme and creative when hiding eggs for our easter egg hunts, would salute that squirrel.

🥁

6:54pm listener james from westwood:

Doug, the trouble is, this now sounds like a Kenny G show!

6:55pm cklequ:

Some of my favorite shows are Kenny G shows....

6:56pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever):

Yup, I have a premium this year: wfmu.org...

6:56pm ndbob:

excellent pledge show Doug!

🥁

6:56pm listener james from westwood:

Speaking of Kenny G, seeing as he's tight with the Commander in Chief, maybe he can get us a little pledge from 1600 Penn Ave?

6:57pm Monica:

ain't a marathon without givin' the drummer some!!

🥁

6:57pm listener james from westwood:

Monica!!!

6:57pm hyde:

thanks doug!

6:58pm Doug Schulkind:

Kaminsky Kamoutsky will be over here!

wfmu.org...

6:58pm Monica:

LJFW!

6:59pm Matt from Springfield:

That's one righteous Creator! Groovy...

🥁

6:59pm listener james from westwood:

wOOt! Total's looking less like my math average and more like my chemistry average! Make it my English average, somebody!!

🥁

7:00pm listener james from westwood:

A set composed of Ken Nordine, Brother John, and Lord Buckley would melt a hole in the earth.

🥁

7:01pm listener james from westwood:

Thanks, Doug and all!!

7:01pm Matt from Springfield:

@LJFW: Throw in Lord Sutch, and you have the Core deflating from underneath us!

7:01pm Doug Schulkind:

You gals and guys are dreamboats. Big ones!

7:02pm Matt from Springfield:

Thanks Doug! Keep the Drumbeats goin'!
