WFMU: Gaylord Fields: Playlist from October 12, 2014

Listener comments!
	5:02pm kat330: Hi, Gaylord and Field-folks! Back now from vacation and hosting Philo's brother from Finland.
	5:03pm Philo Gristle: Greets, Gaylord and Gang!
	5:03pm sugarwolf (by proxy): What are your favorite WFMU memories?
	5:04pm kat330: @Gaylord: Is Sugarwolf your main squeeze?
	5:05pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: No, we're just good friends.
	5:06pm Philo Gristle: @Gaylord Desert Island LP? Only one allowed.
	5:07pm kat330: [BTW, I'm roasting a bird in the oven, so I'll be in-and-out here on comments. Philo will keep me apprised.]
	5:08pm Gaylord Fields: @sugarwolf: The first is meeting and dancing with the woman I would later marry (who is not sugarwolf) during a marathon show by Dave the Spazz. Another is when Ari Up crashed my show mid-program; I just happen to have the Slits' version of "Grapevine" with me, which I played, of course! A third is when, back at the old Upsala house, David S. Ware pushed my car out of the snow.
	5:09pm Gaylord Fields: @Philo Gristle: There Is, by the Dells.
	5:12pm kat330: You dig doo-wop, eh? You might check out my take on it "Play on Words" at soundcloud.com/kat330. :) Which leads to my next question: Are you also a singer or musician who creates your own music?
	5:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: Beautiful selections today, Gaylord. What living musician would you most enjoy dining with?
	5:13pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: I am both, and neither.
	5:14pm kat330: Ha! I predicted you'd give some evasive answers.
	5:14pm Philo Gristle: Here's a personal question: How old were you either 10 or 20 years ago?
	5:15pm Gaylord Fields: @ Ken From Hyde Park: Madonna
	5:16pm Gaylord Fields: @Philo Gristle: 34
	5:19pm Ike: I'll take a little pressure off Gaylord and ask Kat330 a question, since I was in western Europe recently and almost EVERYTHING tasted better there: Has Philo's brother been here before? Does he find some of the food here disappointing?
	5:20pm Herbie: On hot dogs, do you prefer ketchup, mustard or relish?
	5:21pm Gaylord Fields: @Herbie: All three. I'm not from Chicago.
	5:21pm kat330: @Ike: Kari is a bit of an amateur gourmet chef, so I think he makes whatever he prepares taste quite good. He made a very nice grilling marinade for us, for e.g., and a ice cream treat that included pistachios and drambuie.
	5:22pm Ike: Thanks Kat330. Wow, drambuie. Fancy.
	5:23pm Cactus Cop: If you could watch any movie for the rest of your life, what movie would it be? Also, nice music this afternoon
	5:24pm kat330: @Ike: Philo suggests I didn't answer your question well. He seemed to have no complaints. I made roast turkey breast and chicken tagine he raved about, and he seemed very pleased with the pizza place we took him and even a roadside diner (which was a surprise treat for us as well).
	5:24pm Philo Gristle: @Gaylord Where did you grow up, if not Chicago? And yes, what Cactus Cop said. Solid sounds as always.
	5:25pm Gaylord Fields: @Cactus Cop: A Hard Day's Night, in my most unsurprising answer of the AMA.
	5:26pm Gaylord Fields: @Philo Gristle: 40.7127° N, 74.0059° W
	5:29pm kat330: @Gaylord: What year did you graduate high school?
	5:29pm Philo Gristle: City Hall? Thanks, Gaylord!
	5:29pm Gaylord Fields: Also, thanks for the compliments on the music selection, folks.
	5:30pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: the Year of the Horse
	5:31pm Davis: Gaylord, why is there a tiny mouse running around my living room floor?
	5:31pm Gaylord Fields: @Philo: I'm distantly related to the man then known as Deputy Mayor McCheese.
	5:32pm Gaylord Fields: @Davis: Because of the social contributions of Owsley Stanley
	5:33pm 12539: Gaylord, I have no questions, but I'd just like to thank you for this magnanimous gesture and/or cheap publicity gimmick today.
	5:34pm Cactus Cop: If you were stuck on an island, and could take one corrupt dictator with you, who would it be?
	5:35pm Davis: ah thank you.
	5:36pm Gaylord Fields: @ Cactus Cop: Anyone who doesn't answer Vladimir Putin to your question is either ill-informed or lying. I am neither.
	5:36pm Davis: i put a glass mixing bowl over it and it wasnt there, so you may well be right
	5:36pm Gaylord Fields: @12539: Gotta have a gimmick!
	5:37pm Philo Gristle: @Gaylord Which of The Dictators would you take along to a desert island?
	5:38pm kat330: The Price is right.
	5:38pm Gaylord Fields: @Philo Gristle: Andy Shernoff
	5:38pm robin: Price's cover=exquisite
	5:39pm Gaylord Fields: @Cactus Cop: Correction -- ill informed, lying, or Ukrainian.
	5:40pm kat330: Is Ms. Fields a singer or musician? Or cookie baker? ;)
	5:40pm P-90: @Gaylord: You met your future bride at a Dave T. Spazz FMU Marathon show? That is so.....cool, or sweet, or a propos, or something... [Not a question, just a comment. And belated congratulations, you dog you]
	5:41pm Gaylord Fields: However, a foe of Putin might want to be on an island with him for vengeful reasons.
	5:41pm unpopularfred: How does it feel to be on your own, like a complete unknown, with no direction home, like a rolling stone?
	5:42pm Gaylord Fields: @P-90: [doffs hat]
	5:42pm Cactus Cop: If you could live on the set of one game show, what game show would you pick and why?
	5:42pm Gaylord Fields: @unpopularfred: It feels like the first time. It feels like the very first time.
	5:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: Tickets to an opera or tickets to a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction event - which would you choose?
	5:44pm fleep: @Gaylord Would you rather fight 100 duck-sized horses, or one horse-sized duck?
	5:44pm kat330: Boxers, briefs or commando?
	5:45pm Gaylord Fields: @ Ken From Hyde Park: I've been to both, so I'd go to the one I've been to more than once.
	5:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @Gaylord: Been dying to know! (but that's me, course): ...My guess - ♎Libra?: You so Cultured & Arty & Personable & Smooth... some ♍Virgo planets in the Chart, perhaps: there is a fastidious element - ?? (tho' you be broadminded) ...& do you know &/or care to divulge your Chinese Birth Year (Chinese Signs tend towards the 'barnyard'; always fun to discuss being, say, a Rat or Boar) - ??...
	5:46pm Gaylord Fields: @ fleep: I should have anticipated this one. My answer is one horse-size duck. I'd die faster.
	5:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @fleep: ...now I miss RayHarryhausen...
	5:48pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: Why is that even a question here in the Boxer Brief Epoch?
	5:48pm kat330: Ha! Exactly what Philo and I were discussing! OK, I'm guessing boxer briefs in commando camouflage design.
	5:49pm Gaylord Fields: @ Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm a cowardly lion and a dirty rat.
	5:49pm Davis: where is beatles band?
	5:50pm kat330: Ah, so Jul-Aug 1960.
	5:50pm Gaylord Fields: @Davis: beatles is band in north korea.
	5:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - wonderful answer.
	5:51pm kat330: This is a dreamy set of tunes.
	5:52pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: Nice triangulation!
	5:52pm kat330: But it appears you graduated HS a year early?
	5:53pm Sem Chumbo: Hiya, Gaylord. Don't let me interrupt the fascinating conversations underway here. I'll just read and listen along. Hiya, kat! fleep! The Rev. Oh, no: Philo:-D
	5:53pm kat330: Monsieur Chumbo, hello back atcha!
	5:54pm kat330: [Never mind. '78 was Horse.]
	5:54pm Philo Gristle: Hiya Sem! Barge right in. :) Whatcha reading?
	5:55pm Gaylord Fields: @ Cactus Cop: Not Jeopardy; that would be too obvious. I'll say Queen for a Day. I'll weave a tale that'll have Jack Bailey weeping his pencil 'stache off!
	5:55pm Philo Gristle: @Gaylord Which brings to mind... favorite work of fiction? In book form.
	5:55pm unpopularfred: What's your response to someone who feels it unlikely or impossible for one to have a simultaneous appreciation for music like Millie Jackson's and music like Xenakis'?
	5:56pm Sem Chumbo: The Letters of Malcolm Lowry and "On Apology" by Aaron Lazare. YOu?
	5:56pm Gaylord Fields: @ Philo Gristle: Under the Skin, by Michel Faber
	5:56pm P-90: I dunno....I'm hardly a crusty, conservative, resistant-to-innovation kind of guy, but I'm suspicious of those newfangled "boxer briefs." Something un-American about 'em, just can't warm up to the whole idea.
	5:57pm Cactus Cop: Personally, I would have said Legends of the Hidden Temple.
	5:57pm Philo Gristle: @Gaylord How does that compare to the film which we just saw? Of the same title, not the other.
	5:58pm íkє: Agreed, P-90. And it seems the retailers are trying to FORCE 'em on us! Hate.
	5:58pm Gaylord Fields: unpopularfred: My response would be this: www.wfmu.org...
	5:58pm Sem Chumbo: Gotta say, the boxer briefs are a god-send for this bicyclist.
	5:58pm Philo Gristle: @Sem Jack London's John Barleycorn! Never managed to read Under the Volcano, but love Huston's film.
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ......'Hard Day's Night' is both an exhilarating piece of Pop - & an enduring Art film ...& - when all is said & done - what Life should be like (...I mean - Patti Boyd as a Schoolgirl, I ask you.)... ...Didn't Msr. Veloso end up Culture Minister or something? ; what an amazing song...
	5:59pm Gaylord Fields: @ íkє: I must be shopping at the wrong places. Names/addresses, please!
	5:59pm Davis: i think all varieties of underpants are still available including huge white y-fronts, so dont worry too much
	5:59pm Sem Chumbo: The Letters make Volcano easier to get a grip on. Have the Huston film: amazing job on such an interior novel. Jack London! Cool.
	6:00pm fleep: Greetings Sem and all inquisitive types. Boxer briefs hold things in place than just briefs, which over time can lose elastic in the leg holes, causing the dreaded junk drift.
	6:00pm doca: Gilberto Gil was Minister of Culture under Lula's administration in Brazil, not Caetano, @RRN63 :D
	6:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Flexible Flyer or a toboggan?
	6:00pm Sem Chumbo: Only thing worse than junk drift is mission creep, fleep.
	6:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thank You doca !
	6:02pm Sem Chumbo: Bom começo da noite, doca. Está bem, eu espero?
	6:02pm kat330: Follow your dream, even if it kills you? This is a cartoon I can relate to: www.condenaststore.com...
	6:02pm Gaylord Fields: @ Philo Gristle: Haven't watched the film. I understand a lot of plot and details were changed, but it still maintained its essence, evidently.
	6:02pm Herbie: Did you cry when Old Yeller died?
	6:02pm JakeGould: Hello people!
	6:02pm doca: @Gaylord: How many years you were a WFMU listener before becoming a WFMU DJ?
	6:03pm Gaylord Fields: @ Ken From Hyde Park: The adult version of who I am would rather be supine than prone.
	6:04pm Davis: lovely record
	6:04pm doca: @Sem: Estou bem, tudo tranquilo, except for the general nervousness regarding the upcoming second round of Brazil presidential elections. Things are getting harder and harder over here...And you?
	6:04pm Gaylord Fields: @doca: About a dozen.
	6:04pm Sem Chumbo: Oh, kat. Somewhere Joe C. is shaking his head and laughing out loud.
	6:05pm Philo Gristle: After working in publishing I've found it difficult to enjoy books of more than 300 pages or so... so short classics has been the mode for a while now, mostly.
	6:05pm Gaylord Fields: @Herbie: I cried when Madeline Kahn died. Does that compensate?
	6:06pm Sem Chumbo: We too have an election within the next year, and we, I think, are likewise nervous. I am well, thanks for asking.
	6:06pm Davis: james joyces short stories book
	6:06pm JakeGould: After working as a computer tech in publishing I find I cannot even garner the patience to read printing pages. My reading attention span is decimated.
	6:08pm Davis: this is like varnita
	6:08pm Sem Chumbo: @Davis:Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man, or the Dubliners? Liked the first because I was a Catholic, and the second because I know people like that here on the east coast.
	6:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...for my nervous system - HardD'sN is beyond entertainment - like The Wh♂'s 1st album - it's an actual does of Speed (or something)... - Waiting to see in which direction the Third Party people throw the U.S. mid-term Congressional Elections in mere weeks - & what kind of Senate I get for (basically) my birthday...
	6:09pm Ĩ k є: Good glob, Gaylord, IDK, I'm terrible at clothes. The worst, most sinister chains, like Target, etc., and thrift stores. I really need a TARDIS so I can go to a planet where clothing is easier.
	6:10pm Cactus Cop: if you had a thyme machine, (NOTE: a thyme machine is a machine that allows you to create as much thyme that existed in a certain time period) how much thyme would you create?
	6:10pm doca: @Sem: You're in Canada, right? What are these elections about? (Regional, whole country, municipal). Over here politics are being dominated by right-wing discourses and the elections have become a fight by the elites against the poor (and the government party is being held accused because of governing not only for the elites). It's kinda scary, actually
	6:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...*dose (Thx for nuthin' spellcheck)... ...I'm a Kerouac-head - but let's face it - Joyce came before him...
	6:12pm kat330: This Wave is so cool.
	6:12pm kat330: [serving and eating now -- write more in a few]
	6:13pm Ike: Turning this Angelite & HHT WAY up to combat the downstairs neighbors' very loud bachata.
	6:14pm Davis: @sem- oh dubliners-- i suppose thats the squares favourite joyce like infotaintment scan by the fall, but i love that too. the dubliners makes me cry inside-- i suppose its the foundation of his mental stuff
	6:14pm P-90: The aggressive incursion of boxer briefs into the marketplace, it just has that whiff of arrogant Bush shadow-government manipulation, you know, like the Bay of Pigs, Kennedy/King assassinations, Watergate, Iran/Contra, the untimely cancellations of "Freaks 'n' Geeks" and "My So-Called Life," the rising tide of global terrorism, the loss of habeas corpus, and now this expectation that boxer briefs are just going to all but eclipse the traditional styles, like We the People have nothing to say about it.
	6:15pm JakeGould: I like boxers. But not boxer briefs.
	6:15pm Ken From Hyde Park: Iced tea or hot tea?
	6:15pm P-90: But you can't go wrong with "A Hard Day's Night"!
	6:16pm Ike: @P-90, PREACH IT. The black helicopters and shadow elites can come take my black briefs from me OVER MY DEAD BODY.
	6:16pm Gaylord Fields: @ Cactus Cop: None. I'd probably deprive some butterfly of its favorite thyme sprig, and then it would die of heartbreak. And then through a series of events I'd have somehow caused Richard Hatch from the first season of Survivor to be the president of the U.S. Naked.
	6:17pm Davis: Gaylord, have you heard old as the hills by tiny ruins? i think its lovely, and do i really have to go to bed in a quarter of an hour?
	6:17pm Gaylord Fields: Ken From Hyde Park: I drink more hot tea, but I prefer iced tea. Crazy, huh?
	6:18pm Ike: @GL, what question were you most nervous about being asked? Also, that's a terrifying vision re: Richard Hatch. You have a good handle on the unintended consequences of the butterfly effect there.
	6:18pm Gaylord Fields: @ Davis: I hadn't. Thanks for the recommendation!
	6:18pm P-90: Richard Hatch?! Didn't they deport that guy or something years ago?
	6:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...the Playlist is always better here than my store of adjectives... ...tell the Commandos I go Commando... ...In the U.S. - the House gets seats by State Population, & is considered Kids' Stuff to the Senate, which gives each State two seats (considered for the Grown Ups). The House is dominated by the Tea Party Republicans now - & if the Republicans don't win the Senate, it's believed the 2016 Presidential Elections will be much tougher for them...It'll be Hillary (far as can be seen now) or - Paul Ryan (a nutty ideologue) - ??...
	6:18pm Salamander: Oxford, comma?
	6:18pm fleep: Boxer brief deniers. One day you'll wake up chafed and see the light.
	6:19pm Ike: (What as-yet unasked question, that is...)
	6:19pm Gaylord Fields: @P-90: He was busted for tax evasion.
	6:20pm Gaylord Fields: @Salamander: Professionally, yes. Personally no.
	6:21pm Davis: so, do you think its ok if i stay up till the end of the show and have 7 hours sleep instead of 8?
	6:21pm Gaylord Fields: @Ike: None, actually, because I'm VERY good at deflection.
	6:22pm Gaylord Fields: @Davis: I'm no geologist, but I say yes.
	6:22pm Cactus Cop: @gaylord But can you deflect this?
	6:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @Davis: yer a grownup - & you can sleep seven hours solid - ?!
	6:22pm Marie: Haven't listened to you in a while Gaylord (my bad), I put your show on and you are playing tthis beautiful song. Marvelous!
	6:23pm Philo Gristle: Richard Hatch will always remain Apollo for me. For better or worse. Eating kat-prepared delicious dinner, fingers too greasy to type much.
	6:23pm Davis: no, but i can lie down for several hours
	6:23pm P-90: Yeah, he won the million bucks, "forgot" to pay the taxes, went broke anyway. Then I think he got picked up again for identity theft when he applied for a spear-fishing license in the Virgin Islands posing as the other Richard Hatch, the actor from Battlestar Galactica. Shameless.
	6:23pm Sem Chumbo: @doca. Can't get a word here in edgewise. It's a national federal election and here, too, the right wing ( with a strong scent of Christian fundamentalism) is attempting to turn our country into an overt corporate fiefdom. Sound familiar.Canadians have been so easy going about this that we are now faced with a wedge-issue idiocracy which will use the democratic process to outlaw it. It has happened before. @fleep: ask not what your boxer briefs can do for you but what you can do for boxer briefs in a democratic setting.
	6:25pm kat330: Lovely dinner music, GF....
	6:25pm Gaylord Fields: @Cactus Cop: No, I can't. But I did anyway.
	6:26pm Gaylord Fields: @Marie: Welcome back to my little world. It's good to hear from you.
	6:26pm P-90: @Sem: Hear, Hear! That's the spirit!
	6:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's world-wide: WWII followed the Depression: take the money out - & everyone gets Anti-Immigrant & Conservative & Nationalistic. The Corporations don't care about Countries, & nothing is 'by accident'.
	6:27pm rw: @Gaylord: How are you able to answer all these questions and still put together a first rate radio program?
	6:28pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: I'd ask you what's for dinner, but that's not how the game is played.
	6:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - now that is the real question.
	6:28pm JakeGould: I always like how these reality show sociopaths always fall flat on their face when things are said & done.
	6:29pm kat330: @Gaylord: We're having a meal suited perfectly to your playlist. [Grasshopper learns from the Master]
	6:29pm Salamander: @Gaylord How do you know when you've reached the limits of how far into an artist's work you will venture (music/film/literature, etc.)?
	6:29pm doca: @Sem: Yeah unfortunately it's the same. At least we have WFMU to provide some relief!
	6:30pm Gaylord Fields: @rw: As the voiceover guy used to say at the end of public-affairs shows, this program has been prerecorded. It was done in real time today between 2 and 4 pm.
	6:32pm Gaylord Fields: @Salamander: I tend to buy two albums too many, or watch two films too many, or read two books too many. That way I can have a better idea of whether that bad work was an outlier or the beginning of a real decline.
	6:32pm P-90: When Dave Emory and Hearty White do their Holiday Crossover Special, now that's gonna cast a shitload of disinfecting sunlight on the brazen Skull 'n' Bones Gerrymanderers and quasi-intelligence complex spooks who think they can turn this country into a made-in-indonesia boxer brief-wearing banana republic without a fight. @DJ Gaylord: Jets or Giants?
	6:33pm JakeGould: Gaylord, you have shifted time & space. Wow!
	6:34pm Davis: leeds united or manchester united?
	6:35pm P-90: Liza or Lorna?
	6:35pm Gaylord Fields: @ JakeGould: My favorite example of that phenomenon involves Michael Larson, the guy who figured out how to beat the whammy on Press Your Luck. His story has been told, and very well; you will not be disappointed.
	6:37pm Gaylord Fields: @Davis: I consider Man U the Yankees of the FA, so I take Leeds by default.
	6:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @P-90: Hearty is a creative genius of the sort that I feel helps me stay human & sane - & I find it harder to gainsay DaveEmory than it's comfortable to admit...
	6:38pm Davis: rocking good news!
	6:39pm Gaylord Fields: @P-90: Switching from the Jets to the Giants after my first year of football fandom is the only time I ever swapped rooting for one sports team for another.
	6:39pm Herbie: Gaylord, do you have a favorite Girl Scout cookie? If so, which one?
	6:39pm kat330: @GF: What's your fave current music program on FMU?
	6:40pm kat330: Other than your own, of course.
	6:40pm Gaylord Fields: @P-90: Lorna never recorded "Losing My Mind," as far as I know. Also, I once stayed in a hotel room in Memphis formerly occupied by David Gest. Or so the legend goes.
	6:41pm P-90: @Gaylord: I think there's more than a few who can say exactly the same thing, they usually don't switch, but that was the lone exception...
	6:41pm Sem Chumbo: @doca: gotta agree, thank the gods old and new for small, tender mercies.
	6:41pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: What makes you think I like my program?
	6:42pm kat330: Just didn't want to allow you the easy evasion.
	6:42pm Gaylord Fields: Consider that a deflection.
	6:42pm P-90: Italo Calvino or Salmon Rushdie?
	6:43pm Davis: the mouse was really there, the cats after it, my house is now like tom and jerry
	6:43pm Gaylord Fields: @Herbie: Samoas
	6:44pm P-90: Bete Best or Stu Sutcliffe?
	6:44pm Davis: oh this is also a lovely record- it grabbed me immediately
	6:44pm Gaylord Fields: @P-90: Calvino
	6:44pm fleep: [Non-deflected answer. Point for the Board.]
	6:44pm kat330: @GF: Send it along in private email then?
	6:44pm P-90: Akbar or Jeff?
	6:45pm Matt F: Gaylord, are you talking about the Memphis hotel room I think you're talking about, or a different one? And if it's that one, how do I not remember the David Gest rumor?
	6:46pm rw: Gaylord, Here's a personal one: Is your wife jealous of FMU?
	6:46pm Gaylord Fields: @P-90: I've never seen Pete Best's paintings. But I have talked to him; he was nothing like the taciturn, brooding and aloof figure he has been depicted as.
	6:47pm Gaylord Fields: @Matt F: The one and the same; the Talbot Guesthouse: I think it billed itself as the Best Boutique Hotel in Memphis.
	6:47pm JakeGould: Gaylord! Thanks for reminding me of the “Press Your Luck” guy. Remember that. Reminds me of this recent video poker scammer article in WIRED. www.wired.com...
	6:48pm Gaylord Fields: @P-90: Is today Sunday? Then Jeff.
	6:48pm kat330: I once shared a Memphis hotel room with my sister (the bigger Elvis fan) and some hefty cockroaches. La Quinta Inn. I'd avoid it.
	6:48pm Sem Chumbo: The Palins remade this as "I can see your house in Russia from here."
	6:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...considering everything - PeteBest maybe is not so bad off - in the end... @GF: Where does your incredible knowledge & taste in Music & Culture come from - ? Too broad a question - but yerknow - how did this happen - ?!...
	6:51pm Gaylord Fields: @rw: I can't answer for her. But it must be a bit hard for the spouse of any WFMU on-air person with a standing weekly rendezvous.
	6:51pm Davis: i stayed in the elvis presley boulevard motel and met dan greer and the hummingbirds or something vocal group in the diner over the other side of the carpark at breakfast-- i would reccomend that
	6:51pm Philo Gristle: @Gaylord Favorite drink today and 35 years ago?
	6:51pm Herbie: The show and tell today was fantastic. How can we possibly thank you?
	6:52pm Gaylord Fields: @ Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Avoidance of drugs and overconsumption of sugar?
	6:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Band o'Bees...
	6:53pm P-90: How can you beat the "Whammy"? Was there collusion from the producers? Wasn't that Jack Barry, who had been involved in the $64,000 Question scandal?
	6:53pm kat330: An A+ for these Bee songs. This has a Beck feel.
	6:53pm Gaylord Fields: @Philo Gristle: Cream soda (then); sour cherry juice (now)
	6:54pm Philo Gristle: Even Screamin' Jay couldn't beat "The Whammy," so I don't believe any other human could.
	6:54pm Gaylord Fields: @Herbie: You just did.
	6:54pm Sem Chumbo: Belt or suspenders?
	6:55pm Davis: a lovely morning that was
	6:55pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: And this wasn't an alphabetical programming cheat, as my media isn't alphabetized.
	6:55pm Philo Gristle: @Gaylord Does that correspond to your personality (now) and (then) as is or in reverse or not at all?
	6:55pm Sem Chumbo: Belt or suspenders on your boxer briefs, I meant.
	6:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @GF: ...you could @ least smoke too much & mainline espresso like Zappa...
	6:55pm Nanker de Tucson: Very fine show today, Gaylord !
	6:56pm Gaylord Fields: @ Sem Chumbo: I wear suspenders only with appropriate suits (seersucker, tuxedo).
	6:56pm Sem Chumbo: Zappa didn't dilute his coffee, just line after line of dark roast, so he'd have to do more and more to get off.
	6:56pm rw: GF, Very cool and innovative program today. Thank you!
	6:56pm Gaylord Fields: @Nanker: Thanks!
	6:57pm Philo Gristle: The Clean sweep! Excellent show, great board!
	6:57pm Gaylord Fields: That;'s it for the AMA! I'm going on mic live.
	6:57pm 12539: Thanks, Gaylord!

	6:58pm Sem Chumbo: You'll always be a tuxedo kinda a guy to me, GF. Thanks for hosting this soiree.
	6:58pm P-90: @Philo: You're right, and Screamin' Jay even beat The Wiz once. And NOBODY beats The Wiz. @Gaylord I LOVE that sour cherry juice, but what's your favorite bourbon? Last question.
	6:58pm kat330: Thank you for such a warm return to FMU listening, Gaylord! Have a great week you and yours! Speaking of warm -- wow, 82-degrees here tomorrow?!
	6:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: We may never find out Gaylord's favorite color.
	6:59pm kat330: @Ken: I'll guess blue. Kauniita unia all of youse!
	7:00pm Herbie: Somthing I'd like to know: What do you feel is the most controversial part of the band name Gay Witch Abortion?
	7:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - Thx As Ever Mr. GF Sir !
	7:00pm P-90: I say red. It's jauntier.
	7:01pm kat330: @P-90: Going by his playlist colors.
	7:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: Gaylord has a broad spectrum, so I'm going to guess plaid.
	7:01pm Philo Gristle: Puce. CHartreuse. Maroon. Cerise. Coral. Gnight, owl!

Sun. Dec 22nd, 3pm - 5pm: The Unsolicited Return of the Winter Soul-stice (fill-in for Paul Bruno) (More info...)
You can't stop the seasons from turning, and you evidently also can't stop an old dog from performing his one old trick. Answering the teeming clamor of one New York Times food columnist , Gaylord Fields is returning to WFMU's airwaves for a one-off Winter Soul-stice program. In his time away he's learned nothing, so the format will remain the same: two hours of original 1960s soul 45s, and the abuse of an expensive reverb machine for the sake of corny vocal effects.

October 12, 2014: Il segreto di Pulcinella

Listener comments!
	5:02pm kat330: Hi, Gaylord and Field-folks! Back now from vacation and hosting Philo's brother from Finland.
	5:03pm Philo Gristle: Greets, Gaylord and Gang!
	5:03pm sugarwolf (by proxy): What are your favorite WFMU memories?
	5:04pm kat330: @Gaylord: Is Sugarwolf your main squeeze?
	5:05pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: No, we're just good friends.
	5:06pm Philo Gristle: @Gaylord Desert Island LP? Only one allowed.
	5:07pm kat330: [BTW, I'm roasting a bird in the oven, so I'll be in-and-out here on comments. Philo will keep me apprised.]
	5:08pm Gaylord Fields: @sugarwolf: The first is meeting and dancing with the woman I would later marry (who is not sugarwolf) during a marathon show by Dave the Spazz. Another is when Ari Up crashed my show mid-program; I just happen to have the Slits' version of "Grapevine" with me, which I played, of course! A third is when, back at the old Upsala house, David S. Ware pushed my car out of the snow.
	5:09pm Gaylord Fields: @Philo Gristle: There Is, by the Dells.
	5:12pm kat330: You dig doo-wop, eh? You might check out my take on it "Play on Words" at soundcloud.com/kat330. :) Which leads to my next question: Are you also a singer or musician who creates your own music?
	5:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: Beautiful selections today, Gaylord. What living musician would you most enjoy dining with?
	5:13pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: I am both, and neither.
	5:14pm kat330: Ha! I predicted you'd give some evasive answers.
	5:14pm Philo Gristle: Here's a personal question: How old were you either 10 or 20 years ago?
	5:15pm Gaylord Fields: @ Ken From Hyde Park: Madonna
	5:16pm Gaylord Fields: @Philo Gristle: 34
	5:19pm Ike: I'll take a little pressure off Gaylord and ask Kat330 a question, since I was in western Europe recently and almost EVERYTHING tasted better there: Has Philo's brother been here before? Does he find some of the food here disappointing?
	5:20pm Herbie: On hot dogs, do you prefer ketchup, mustard or relish?
	5:21pm Gaylord Fields: @Herbie: All three. I'm not from Chicago.
	5:21pm kat330: @Ike: Kari is a bit of an amateur gourmet chef, so I think he makes whatever he prepares taste quite good. He made a very nice grilling marinade for us, for e.g., and a ice cream treat that included pistachios and drambuie.
	5:22pm Ike: Thanks Kat330. Wow, drambuie. Fancy.
	5:23pm Cactus Cop: If you could watch any movie for the rest of your life, what movie would it be? Also, nice music this afternoon
	5:24pm kat330: @Ike: Philo suggests I didn't answer your question well. He seemed to have no complaints. I made roast turkey breast and chicken tagine he raved about, and he seemed very pleased with the pizza place we took him and even a roadside diner (which was a surprise treat for us as well).
	5:24pm Philo Gristle: @Gaylord Where did you grow up, if not Chicago? And yes, what Cactus Cop said. Solid sounds as always.
	5:25pm Gaylord Fields: @Cactus Cop: A Hard Day's Night, in my most unsurprising answer of the AMA.
	5:26pm Gaylord Fields: @Philo Gristle: 40.7127° N, 74.0059° W
	5:29pm kat330: @Gaylord: What year did you graduate high school?
	5:29pm Philo Gristle: City Hall? Thanks, Gaylord!
	5:29pm Gaylord Fields: Also, thanks for the compliments on the music selection, folks.
	5:30pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: the Year of the Horse
	5:31pm Davis: Gaylord, why is there a tiny mouse running around my living room floor?
	5:31pm Gaylord Fields: @Philo: I'm distantly related to the man then known as Deputy Mayor McCheese.
	5:32pm Gaylord Fields: @Davis: Because of the social contributions of Owsley Stanley
	5:33pm 12539: Gaylord, I have no questions, but I'd just like to thank you for this magnanimous gesture and/or cheap publicity gimmick today.
	5:34pm Cactus Cop: If you were stuck on an island, and could take one corrupt dictator with you, who would it be?
	5:35pm Davis: ah thank you.
	5:36pm Gaylord Fields: @ Cactus Cop: Anyone who doesn't answer Vladimir Putin to your question is either ill-informed or lying. I am neither.
	5:36pm Davis: i put a glass mixing bowl over it and it wasnt there, so you may well be right
	5:36pm Gaylord Fields: @12539: Gotta have a gimmick!
	5:37pm Philo Gristle: @Gaylord Which of The Dictators would you take along to a desert island?
	5:38pm kat330: The Price is right.
	5:38pm Gaylord Fields: @Philo Gristle: Andy Shernoff
	5:38pm robin: Price's cover=exquisite
	5:39pm Gaylord Fields: @Cactus Cop: Correction -- ill informed, lying, or Ukrainian.
	5:40pm kat330: Is Ms. Fields a singer or musician? Or cookie baker? ;)
	5:40pm P-90: @Gaylord: You met your future bride at a Dave T. Spazz FMU Marathon show? That is so.....cool, or sweet, or a propos, or something... [Not a question, just a comment. And belated congratulations, you dog you]
	5:41pm Gaylord Fields: However, a foe of Putin might want to be on an island with him for vengeful reasons.
	5:41pm unpopularfred: How does it feel to be on your own, like a complete unknown, with no direction home, like a rolling stone?
	5:42pm Gaylord Fields: @P-90: [doffs hat]
	5:42pm Cactus Cop: If you could live on the set of one game show, what game show would you pick and why?
	5:42pm Gaylord Fields: @unpopularfred: It feels like the first time. It feels like the very first time.
	5:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: Tickets to an opera or tickets to a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction event - which would you choose?
	5:44pm fleep: @Gaylord Would you rather fight 100 duck-sized horses, or one horse-sized duck?
	5:44pm kat330: Boxers, briefs or commando?
	5:45pm Gaylord Fields: @ Ken From Hyde Park: I've been to both, so I'd go to the one I've been to more than once.
	5:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @Gaylord: Been dying to know! (but that's me, course): ...My guess - ♎Libra?: You so Cultured & Arty & Personable & Smooth... some ♍Virgo planets in the Chart, perhaps: there is a fastidious element - ?? (tho' you be broadminded) ...& do you know &/or care to divulge your Chinese Birth Year (Chinese Signs tend towards the 'barnyard'; always fun to discuss being, say, a Rat or Boar) - ??...
	5:46pm Gaylord Fields: @ fleep: I should have anticipated this one. My answer is one horse-size duck. I'd die faster.
	5:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @fleep: ...now I miss RayHarryhausen...
	5:48pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: Why is that even a question here in the Boxer Brief Epoch?
	5:48pm kat330: Ha! Exactly what Philo and I were discussing! OK, I'm guessing boxer briefs in commando camouflage design.
	5:49pm Gaylord Fields: @ Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm a cowardly lion and a dirty rat.
	5:49pm Davis: where is beatles band?
	5:50pm kat330: Ah, so Jul-Aug 1960.
	5:50pm Gaylord Fields: @Davis: beatles is band in north korea.
	5:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - wonderful answer.
	5:51pm kat330: This is a dreamy set of tunes.
	5:52pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: Nice triangulation!
	5:52pm kat330: But it appears you graduated HS a year early?
	5:53pm Sem Chumbo: Hiya, Gaylord. Don't let me interrupt the fascinating conversations underway here. I'll just read and listen along. Hiya, kat! fleep! The Rev. Oh, no: Philo:-D
	5:53pm kat330: Monsieur Chumbo, hello back atcha!
	5:54pm kat330: [Never mind. '78 was Horse.]
	5:54pm Philo Gristle: Hiya Sem! Barge right in. :) Whatcha reading?
	5:55pm Gaylord Fields: @ Cactus Cop: Not Jeopardy; that would be too obvious. I'll say Queen for a Day. I'll weave a tale that'll have Jack Bailey weeping his pencil 'stache off!
	5:55pm Philo Gristle: @Gaylord Which brings to mind... favorite work of fiction? In book form.
	5:55pm unpopularfred: What's your response to someone who feels it unlikely or impossible for one to have a simultaneous appreciation for music like Millie Jackson's and music like Xenakis'?
	5:56pm Sem Chumbo: The Letters of Malcolm Lowry and "On Apology" by Aaron Lazare. YOu?
	5:56pm Gaylord Fields: @ Philo Gristle: Under the Skin, by Michel Faber
	5:56pm P-90: I dunno....I'm hardly a crusty, conservative, resistant-to-innovation kind of guy, but I'm suspicious of those newfangled "boxer briefs." Something un-American about 'em, just can't warm up to the whole idea.
	5:57pm Cactus Cop: Personally, I would have said Legends of the Hidden Temple.
	5:57pm Philo Gristle: @Gaylord How does that compare to the film which we just saw? Of the same title, not the other.
	5:58pm íkє: Agreed, P-90. And it seems the retailers are trying to FORCE 'em on us! Hate.
	5:58pm Gaylord Fields: unpopularfred: My response would be this: www.wfmu.org...
	5:58pm Sem Chumbo: Gotta say, the boxer briefs are a god-send for this bicyclist.
	5:58pm Philo Gristle: @Sem Jack London's John Barleycorn! Never managed to read Under the Volcano, but love Huston's film.
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ......'Hard Day's Night' is both an exhilarating piece of Pop - & an enduring Art film ...& - when all is said & done - what Life should be like (...I mean - Patti Boyd as a Schoolgirl, I ask you.)... ...Didn't Msr. Veloso end up Culture Minister or something? ; what an amazing song...
	5:59pm Gaylord Fields: @ íkє: I must be shopping at the wrong places. Names/addresses, please!
	5:59pm Davis: i think all varieties of underpants are still available including huge white y-fronts, so dont worry too much
	5:59pm Sem Chumbo: The Letters make Volcano easier to get a grip on. Have the Huston film: amazing job on such an interior novel. Jack London! Cool.
	6:00pm fleep: Greetings Sem and all inquisitive types. Boxer briefs hold things in place than just briefs, which over time can lose elastic in the leg holes, causing the dreaded junk drift.
	6:00pm doca: Gilberto Gil was Minister of Culture under Lula's administration in Brazil, not Caetano, @RRN63 :D
	6:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Flexible Flyer or a toboggan?
	6:00pm Sem Chumbo: Only thing worse than junk drift is mission creep, fleep.
	6:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thank You doca !
	6:02pm Sem Chumbo: Bom começo da noite, doca. Está bem, eu espero?
	6:02pm kat330: Follow your dream, even if it kills you? This is a cartoon I can relate to: www.condenaststore.com...
	6:02pm Gaylord Fields: @ Philo Gristle: Haven't watched the film. I understand a lot of plot and details were changed, but it still maintained its essence, evidently.
	6:02pm Herbie: Did you cry when Old Yeller died?
	6:02pm JakeGould: Hello people!
	6:02pm doca: @Gaylord: How many years you were a WFMU listener before becoming a WFMU DJ?
	6:03pm Gaylord Fields: @ Ken From Hyde Park: The adult version of who I am would rather be supine than prone.
	6:04pm Davis: lovely record
	6:04pm doca: @Sem: Estou bem, tudo tranquilo, except for the general nervousness regarding the upcoming second round of Brazil presidential elections. Things are getting harder and harder over here...And you?
	6:04pm Gaylord Fields: @doca: About a dozen.
	6:04pm Sem Chumbo: Oh, kat. Somewhere Joe C. is shaking his head and laughing out loud.
	6:05pm Philo Gristle: After working in publishing I've found it difficult to enjoy books of more than 300 pages or so... so short classics has been the mode for a while now, mostly.
	6:05pm Gaylord Fields: @Herbie: I cried when Madeline Kahn died. Does that compensate?
	6:06pm Sem Chumbo: We too have an election within the next year, and we, I think, are likewise nervous. I am well, thanks for asking.
	6:06pm Davis: james joyces short stories book
	6:06pm JakeGould: After working as a computer tech in publishing I find I cannot even garner the patience to read printing pages. My reading attention span is decimated.
	6:08pm Davis: this is like varnita
	6:08pm Sem Chumbo: @Davis:Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man, or the Dubliners? Liked the first because I was a Catholic, and the second because I know people like that here on the east coast.
	6:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...for my nervous system - HardD'sN is beyond entertainment - like The Wh♂'s 1st album - it's an actual does of Speed (or something)... - Waiting to see in which direction the Third Party people throw the U.S. mid-term Congressional Elections in mere weeks - & what kind of Senate I get for (basically) my birthday...
	6:09pm Ĩ k є: Good glob, Gaylord, IDK, I'm terrible at clothes. The worst, most sinister chains, like Target, etc., and thrift stores. I really need a TARDIS so I can go to a planet where clothing is easier.
	6:10pm Cactus Cop: if you had a thyme machine, (NOTE: a thyme machine is a machine that allows you to create as much thyme that existed in a certain time period) how much thyme would you create?
	6:10pm doca: @Sem: You're in Canada, right? What are these elections about? (Regional, whole country, municipal). Over here politics are being dominated by right-wing discourses and the elections have become a fight by the elites against the poor (and the government party is being held accused because of governing not only for the elites). It's kinda scary, actually
	6:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...*dose (Thx for nuthin' spellcheck)... ...I'm a Kerouac-head - but let's face it - Joyce came before him...
	6:12pm kat330: This Wave is so cool.
	6:12pm kat330: [serving and eating now -- write more in a few]
	6:13pm Ike: Turning this Angelite & HHT WAY up to combat the downstairs neighbors' very loud bachata.
	6:14pm Davis: @sem- oh dubliners-- i suppose thats the squares favourite joyce like infotaintment scan by the fall, but i love that too. the dubliners makes me cry inside-- i suppose its the foundation of his mental stuff
	6:14pm P-90: The aggressive incursion of boxer briefs into the marketplace, it just has that whiff of arrogant Bush shadow-government manipulation, you know, like the Bay of Pigs, Kennedy/King assassinations, Watergate, Iran/Contra, the untimely cancellations of "Freaks 'n' Geeks" and "My So-Called Life," the rising tide of global terrorism, the loss of habeas corpus, and now this expectation that boxer briefs are just going to all but eclipse the traditional styles, like We the People have nothing to say about it.
	6:15pm JakeGould: I like boxers. But not boxer briefs.
	6:15pm Ken From Hyde Park: Iced tea or hot tea?
	6:15pm P-90: But you can't go wrong with "A Hard Day's Night"!
	6:16pm Ike: @P-90, PREACH IT. The black helicopters and shadow elites can come take my black briefs from me OVER MY DEAD BODY.
	6:16pm Gaylord Fields: @ Cactus Cop: None. I'd probably deprive some butterfly of its favorite thyme sprig, and then it would die of heartbreak. And then through a series of events I'd have somehow caused Richard Hatch from the first season of Survivor to be the president of the U.S. Naked.
	6:17pm Davis: Gaylord, have you heard old as the hills by tiny ruins? i think its lovely, and do i really have to go to bed in a quarter of an hour?
	6:17pm Gaylord Fields: Ken From Hyde Park: I drink more hot tea, but I prefer iced tea. Crazy, huh?
	6:18pm Ike: @GL, what question were you most nervous about being asked? Also, that's a terrifying vision re: Richard Hatch. You have a good handle on the unintended consequences of the butterfly effect there.
	6:18pm Gaylord Fields: @ Davis: I hadn't. Thanks for the recommendation!
	6:18pm P-90: Richard Hatch?! Didn't they deport that guy or something years ago?
	6:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...the Playlist is always better here than my store of adjectives... ...tell the Commandos I go Commando... ...In the U.S. - the House gets seats by State Population, & is considered Kids' Stuff to the Senate, which gives each State two seats (considered for the Grown Ups). The House is dominated by the Tea Party Republicans now - & if the Republicans don't win the Senate, it's believed the 2016 Presidential Elections will be much tougher for them...It'll be Hillary (far as can be seen now) or - Paul Ryan (a nutty ideologue) - ??...
	6:18pm Salamander: Oxford, comma?
	6:18pm fleep: Boxer brief deniers. One day you'll wake up chafed and see the light.
	6:19pm Ike: (What as-yet unasked question, that is...)
	6:19pm Gaylord Fields: @P-90: He was busted for tax evasion.
	6:20pm Gaylord Fields: @Salamander: Professionally, yes. Personally no.
	6:21pm Davis: so, do you think its ok if i stay up till the end of the show and have 7 hours sleep instead of 8?
	6:21pm Gaylord Fields: @Ike: None, actually, because I'm VERY good at deflection.
	6:22pm Gaylord Fields: @Davis: I'm no geologist, but I say yes.
	6:22pm Cactus Cop: @gaylord But can you deflect this?
	6:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @Davis: yer a grownup - & you can sleep seven hours solid - ?!
	6:22pm Marie: Haven't listened to you in a while Gaylord (my bad), I put your show on and you are playing tthis beautiful song. Marvelous!
	6:23pm Philo Gristle: Richard Hatch will always remain Apollo for me. For better or worse. Eating kat-prepared delicious dinner, fingers too greasy to type much.
	6:23pm Davis: no, but i can lie down for several hours
	6:23pm P-90: Yeah, he won the million bucks, "forgot" to pay the taxes, went broke anyway. Then I think he got picked up again for identity theft when he applied for a spear-fishing license in the Virgin Islands posing as the other Richard Hatch, the actor from Battlestar Galactica. Shameless.
	6:23pm Sem Chumbo: @doca. Can't get a word here in edgewise. It's a national federal election and here, too, the right wing ( with a strong scent of Christian fundamentalism) is attempting to turn our country into an overt corporate fiefdom. Sound familiar.Canadians have been so easy going about this that we are now faced with a wedge-issue idiocracy which will use the democratic process to outlaw it. It has happened before. @fleep: ask not what your boxer briefs can do for you but what you can do for boxer briefs in a democratic setting.
	6:25pm kat330: Lovely dinner music, GF....
	6:25pm Gaylord Fields: @Cactus Cop: No, I can't. But I did anyway.
	6:26pm Gaylord Fields: @Marie: Welcome back to my little world. It's good to hear from you.
	6:26pm P-90: @Sem: Hear, Hear! That's the spirit!
	6:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's world-wide: WWII followed the Depression: take the money out - & everyone gets Anti-Immigrant & Conservative & Nationalistic. The Corporations don't care about Countries, & nothing is 'by accident'.
	6:27pm rw: @Gaylord: How are you able to answer all these questions and still put together a first rate radio program?
	6:28pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: I'd ask you what's for dinner, but that's not how the game is played.
	6:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - now that is the real question.
	6:28pm JakeGould: I always like how these reality show sociopaths always fall flat on their face when things are said & done.
	6:29pm kat330: @Gaylord: We're having a meal suited perfectly to your playlist. [Grasshopper learns from the Master]
	6:29pm Salamander: @Gaylord How do you know when you've reached the limits of how far into an artist's work you will venture (music/film/literature, etc.)?
	6:29pm doca: @Sem: Yeah unfortunately it's the same. At least we have WFMU to provide some relief!
	6:30pm Gaylord Fields: @rw: As the voiceover guy used to say at the end of public-affairs shows, this program has been prerecorded. It was done in real time today between 2 and 4 pm.
	6:32pm Gaylord Fields: @Salamander: I tend to buy two albums too many, or watch two films too many, or read two books too many. That way I can have a better idea of whether that bad work was an outlier or the beginning of a real decline.
	6:32pm P-90: When Dave Emory and Hearty White do their Holiday Crossover Special, now that's gonna cast a shitload of disinfecting sunlight on the brazen Skull 'n' Bones Gerrymanderers and quasi-intelligence complex spooks who think they can turn this country into a made-in-indonesia boxer brief-wearing banana republic without a fight. @DJ Gaylord: Jets or Giants?
	6:33pm JakeGould: Gaylord, you have shifted time & space. Wow!
	6:34pm Davis: leeds united or manchester united?
	6:35pm P-90: Liza or Lorna?
	6:35pm Gaylord Fields: @ JakeGould: My favorite example of that phenomenon involves Michael Larson, the guy who figured out how to beat the whammy on Press Your Luck. His story has been told, and very well; you will not be disappointed.
	6:37pm Gaylord Fields: @Davis: I consider Man U the Yankees of the FA, so I take Leeds by default.
	6:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @P-90: Hearty is a creative genius of the sort that I feel helps me stay human & sane - & I find it harder to gainsay DaveEmory than it's comfortable to admit...
	6:38pm Davis: rocking good news!
	6:39pm Gaylord Fields: @P-90: Switching from the Jets to the Giants after my first year of football fandom is the only time I ever swapped rooting for one sports team for another.
	6:39pm Herbie: Gaylord, do you have a favorite Girl Scout cookie? If so, which one?
	6:39pm kat330: @GF: What's your fave current music program on FMU?
	6:40pm kat330: Other than your own, of course.
	6:40pm Gaylord Fields: @P-90: Lorna never recorded "Losing My Mind," as far as I know. Also, I once stayed in a hotel room in Memphis formerly occupied by David Gest. Or so the legend goes.
	6:41pm P-90: @Gaylord: I think there's more than a few who can say exactly the same thing, they usually don't switch, but that was the lone exception...
	6:41pm Sem Chumbo: @doca: gotta agree, thank the gods old and new for small, tender mercies.
	6:41pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: What makes you think I like my program?
	6:42pm kat330: Just didn't want to allow you the easy evasion.
	6:42pm Gaylord Fields: Consider that a deflection.
	6:42pm P-90: Italo Calvino or Salmon Rushdie?
	6:43pm Davis: the mouse was really there, the cats after it, my house is now like tom and jerry
	6:43pm Gaylord Fields: @Herbie: Samoas
	6:44pm P-90: Bete Best or Stu Sutcliffe?
	6:44pm Davis: oh this is also a lovely record- it grabbed me immediately
	6:44pm Gaylord Fields: @P-90: Calvino
	6:44pm fleep: [Non-deflected answer. Point for the Board.]
	6:44pm kat330: @GF: Send it along in private email then?
	6:44pm P-90: Akbar or Jeff?
	6:45pm Matt F: Gaylord, are you talking about the Memphis hotel room I think you're talking about, or a different one? And if it's that one, how do I not remember the David Gest rumor?
	6:46pm rw: Gaylord, Here's a personal one: Is your wife jealous of FMU?
	6:46pm Gaylord Fields: @P-90: I've never seen Pete Best's paintings. But I have talked to him; he was nothing like the taciturn, brooding and aloof figure he has been depicted as.
	6:47pm Gaylord Fields: @Matt F: The one and the same; the Talbot Guesthouse: I think it billed itself as the Best Boutique Hotel in Memphis.
	6:47pm JakeGould: Gaylord! Thanks for reminding me of the “Press Your Luck” guy. Remember that. Reminds me of this recent video poker scammer article in WIRED. www.wired.com...
	6:48pm Gaylord Fields: @P-90: Is today Sunday? Then Jeff.
	6:48pm kat330: I once shared a Memphis hotel room with my sister (the bigger Elvis fan) and some hefty cockroaches. La Quinta Inn. I'd avoid it.
	6:48pm Sem Chumbo: The Palins remade this as "I can see your house in Russia from here."
	6:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...considering everything - PeteBest maybe is not so bad off - in the end... @GF: Where does your incredible knowledge & taste in Music & Culture come from - ? Too broad a question - but yerknow - how did this happen - ?!...
	6:51pm Gaylord Fields: @rw: I can't answer for her. But it must be a bit hard for the spouse of any WFMU on-air person with a standing weekly rendezvous.
	6:51pm Davis: i stayed in the elvis presley boulevard motel and met dan greer and the hummingbirds or something vocal group in the diner over the other side of the carpark at breakfast-- i would reccomend that
	6:51pm Philo Gristle: @Gaylord Favorite drink today and 35 years ago?
	6:51pm Herbie: The show and tell today was fantastic. How can we possibly thank you?
	6:52pm Gaylord Fields: @ Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Avoidance of drugs and overconsumption of sugar?
	6:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Band o'Bees...
	6:53pm P-90: How can you beat the "Whammy"? Was there collusion from the producers? Wasn't that Jack Barry, who had been involved in the $64,000 Question scandal?
	6:53pm kat330: An A+ for these Bee songs. This has a Beck feel.
	6:53pm Gaylord Fields: @Philo Gristle: Cream soda (then); sour cherry juice (now)
	6:54pm Philo Gristle: Even Screamin' Jay couldn't beat "The Whammy," so I don't believe any other human could.
	6:54pm Gaylord Fields: @Herbie: You just did.
	6:54pm Sem Chumbo: Belt or suspenders?
	6:55pm Davis: a lovely morning that was
	6:55pm Gaylord Fields: @kat330: And this wasn't an alphabetical programming cheat, as my media isn't alphabetized.
	6:55pm Philo Gristle: @Gaylord Does that correspond to your personality (now) and (then) as is or in reverse or not at all?
	6:55pm Sem Chumbo: Belt or suspenders on your boxer briefs, I meant.
	6:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @GF: ...you could @ least smoke too much & mainline espresso like Zappa...
	6:55pm Nanker de Tucson: Very fine show today, Gaylord !
	6:56pm Gaylord Fields: @ Sem Chumbo: I wear suspenders only with appropriate suits (seersucker, tuxedo).
	6:56pm Sem Chumbo: Zappa didn't dilute his coffee, just line after line of dark roast, so he'd have to do more and more to get off.
	6:56pm rw: GF, Very cool and innovative program today. Thank you!
	6:56pm Gaylord Fields: @Nanker: Thanks!
	6:57pm Philo Gristle: The Clean sweep! Excellent show, great board!
	6:57pm Gaylord Fields: That;'s it for the AMA! I'm going on mic live.

	6:57pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks, everyone. I'll be secretive again.
	6:58pm Sem Chumbo: You'll always be a tuxedo kinda a guy to me, GF. Thanks for hosting this soiree.
	6:58pm P-90: @Philo: You're right, and Screamin' Jay even beat The Wiz once. And NOBODY beats The Wiz. @Gaylord I LOVE that sour cherry juice, but what's your favorite bourbon? Last question.
	6:58pm kat330: Thank you for such a warm return to FMU listening, Gaylord! Have a great week you and yours! Speaking of warm -- wow, 82-degrees here tomorrow?!
	6:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: We may never find out Gaylord's favorite color.
	6:59pm kat330: @Ken: I'll guess blue. Kauniita unia all of youse!
	7:00pm Herbie: Somthing I'd like to know: What do you feel is the most controversial part of the band name Gay Witch Abortion?
	7:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - Thx As Ever Mr. GF Sir !
	7:00pm P-90: I say red. It's jauntier.
	7:01pm kat330: @P-90: Going by his playlist colors.
	7:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: Gaylord has a broad spectrum, so I'm going to guess plaid.
	7:01pm Philo Gristle: Puce. CHartreuse. Maroon. Cerise. Coral. Gnight, owl!
