	9:11am melinda: Rowlf!
	9:12am Krys O.: @BronwynB: LOL!!!
	9:13am The Oscar: Anyone ever hear the album Henson recorded as Rowlf? It's pretty wonderful-- I think it was released posthumously.
	9:13am Joe McG: Good morning, everybody, and thanks for joining me this morning for radio time!
	9:13am northguineahills: Should have followed up Al "Jazzbo" Collins w/ Prince Jazzbo. How hadn't I not heard that Rowlf!???
	9:14am Brendan in Carroll Gardens: Great start Joe!
	9:15am The Oscar: Van could pass for a Muppet. Come to think of it, has anyone ever seen him from the waist down?
	9:15am Vincent Nifigance: @The Oscar He certainly hasn't seen himself from the waist down for a good few years.
	9:16am kimzilla: Is this whole week going to be puppet themed? I sure hope so.
	9:18am The Oscar: If anyone else has Filmstruck (the Criterion Collection's streaming service) they have a lot of really cool rare Jim Henson stuff, ranging from his '60s experimental shorts to TV stuff he did in the '80s.
	9:18am steveo: Good morning and happy monday, Joe & everyone.
	9:18am pantz: I sure hope you play Bowie's The Laughing Gnome. What a gas, man!
	9:18am annie: i would love to know if my memory is correct in that Rowlf was first on the jimmy dean show, ostensible the first muppet on teevee
	9:19am Clam_digger: Good morning everyone - Thank you Joe for adding my stereo icon! proud to represent the S.F.L.
	9:20am rowlf: I'm sittin' here googling Rowlf and you're playing Mr Rogers! Yip!
	9:21am Vincent Nifigance: @Annie I read Rowlf started life as a Purina commercial in 1962. He was on The Jimmy Dean Show the year after.
	9:21am northguineahills: Taking my time is why I haven't left for work yet. Thankfully, that's an option, as I set my hours.
	9:21am rowlf: "The first Muppet characters appeared in Sam and Friends, a Washington, D.C.–based show which was broadcast from 1955 to 1961"
	9:21am Colleen: I love this!!! So nice to hear Mr Rodgers!!!
	9:22am fred: "Rowlf the Dog was the first Muppet to reach national stardom as a cast member of The Jimmy Dean Show from 1963 to 1966. "
	9:22am The Oscar: Man, what a cool guy.
	👻 9:22am tadpoles: Mister Rogers is going to be on a stamp - released next month.
	9:23am Uncle Michael: What a delightful Monday morning this has become.
	9:23am Rob (Jerzcity): @Oscar - consistently tempted by filmstruck, but haven't pulled the trigger yet. I had the beta but I don't think I used it :{
	👻 9:24am b!!!: Oh I love The Point. This set is great!
	9:24am ?: 'Morning Joe, 'morning Noise Surfers.
	9:25am Bobby Whirlwind: Morning Joe! Loving this set!
	9:25am steveo: I was going to say that song reminded me of "He Needs Me" and then I looked at the stream player AND IT WAS NILSSON
	9:26am northguineahills: Yeah, The Point! is on Point!
	9:26am The Oscar: @Rob I'd been circling it for months and finally bit the bullet, and I haven't regretted it yet. I've got a queue of about 70 films I have no right not to have seen yet, and I've been working through it. They also add a handful of films every week in themed groups, which is much more satisfying to me than the monthly Netflix dump.
	👻 9:26am Brian in UK: Hey Joe. Oblio is a great name.
	9:28am Lixiviated Life: hello joe
	9:28am Bobby Whirlwind: Snowing here in London
	9:30am Lixiviated Life: any more from Jazzbo? just asking really. might be nice to hear though. i just wait over here.
	9:31am sandra in FL: beautiful set! Mr. Rogers graduated from a college right down the street from where I live.
	9:32am Itzall Ablurr: I suppose "801 + 1" (802, right?) was simply the cover charge today. Good morning, Joe, good morning Noise Surfers.
	9:33am thedunkel: Good Morning Joe! Good Morning everyone!
	9:33am Lixiviated Life: Story time! (the best)
	9:33am Readie Righteous: Yeah! Beat the Clock! I knew I remembered that song from so long ago...
	👻 9:33am Brian in UK: PBS broadcasting.
	9:34am annie: i thought that syncopated clock was also the tune for the million dollar movie. crappy memory
	9:35am Zetti: Irene's show was great.
	9:36am annie: @ fred: yay.... i was right!
	9:36am Krys O.: Thanks for the Tom Rapp tribute.
	9:37am melinda: I caught the end of Irene's tribute, nice to hear more now.
	9:38am The Oscar: My parents LOVE this album. As I grew older, I was surprised this wasn't one of those albums everyone's parents had in their collection.
	9:38am chris in london: this is lovely. thanks Joe. I have never heard PBS before I will def check out more
	9:38am annie: if a deejay gets "adoptd, do we have to fd them or just throw crusts now and then? seriously, though, what's involved?
	9:39am medson: Good Morning Joe.
	9:41am melinda: Constructive melancholy, there's a concept I support.
	9:41am melinda: I adopted the kitchen garbage receptacle last year.
	9:41am Joe McG: @chris: An embarrassment of riches awaits you!
	9:42am steveo: if I adopt the studio A microphone, do i have to come and clean the spittle off it?
	9:43am chris in london: Thanks Joe I am looking forward to it!! @The Oscar: my folks certainly never had that record. funnily enough my son is called Oscar and I think I will be playing it to him soon :0)
	👻 9:43am karlward: I read the Rapp obit in the Times the other day and I'm surprised I never heard his work before, and super pleased to discover it now.
	9:44am annie: might just be gearing up to be yet ANOTHER episode to clicky-star... oy vey!!
	9:46am Joe McG: I love the idea that we are all "prayers of action"!
	9:47am The Oscar: @Chris Ha, awesome :)
	9:48am Dominick: nice
	9:48am medson: Can’t wait to hear what you have for songs that tell a story.
	9:50am Itzall Ablurr: A mighty fine set, dovetails nicely with my weekend binge-watching of "Mod Squad", somehow. Peace, love, bellbottoms & feathered haircuts, y'all.
	9:50am melinda: I hate it when I have to leave for work in the middle of a melancholy folk set. Will resume later.
	9:52am annie: joe who is your co-host next monday?
	9:53am peter64: hahaa WFMU app is actually pretty good

	10:10am Sem: Well, is it true, Joe? About a radio sweetheart? Good morning, Joe. McGaskoes.
	10:11am steveo: super set
	10:12am Joe McG: @Sem: One can hope!
	10:13am Krys O.: The guitars on this Devon Lamarr remind me of Bowie's Sound & Vision.
	10:13am melinda: Is the list of DJ pairs posted yet?
	10:14am Asheville Jon: Annie, remind me later in the week . (i don't do the disgracebook thing)
	10:16am Joe McG: @melinda: Good question! I haven't seen it yet on the site, but there are some fun combinations.
	10:17am Lixiviated Life: "Chip Wickham" is a jazzy moniker.
	10:19am melinda: This time next week I'll be en route to Jersey City for marathon!
	10:19am annie: i will jon...or maybe i'll try to connect through your email somehow. via fmu

	10:24am Asheville Jon: yeh, just sent email to there
	10:25am melinda: @Joe likewise!
	10:26am northguineahills: I was playing disc golf the other day, and there were kids throwing rocks at an alligator a pond. I had to mention it was probably not the best idea to them.
	10:29am steveo: so, girls, boys, girls, space gun, blue balls -- got it.
	10:32am annie: @ngh_ 'nem kids is the cream o' the crop, huh?
	10:33am Asheville Jon: oh no, the 90's becoming 'classic'. ugh
	10:34am Joe McG: @Jon: It had to happen!
	10:34am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe and all!
	10:34am Davee: Singles . . . my favorite part of the show. The rest is really, really good too.
	10:35am BLCKDGRD: i wish I liked Mag Fields 50 Songs more. Will always love the early stuff most, but....
	10:35am Davee: I feel somehow attracted to this band.
	10:35am Clam_digger: @annie Leicester UK? I studied abroad there back in college. Great town. Terrible news about that explosion.
	10:36am Asheville Jon: yeah Joe, i know. i thought it was bad enough that the 80's were classics now. sukks getting old
	10:37am melinda: Magnetic Fields is what turned me on to college/community/freeform radio.
	10:38am frozen_peas: Nirvana has been "classic rock" for like a decade now.
	10:38am judy from croton: Great show joe, naturellement.
	10:39am Krys O.: Thanks for the Roy Wood!
	10:39am Joe McG: Thanks Judy, having great fun today.
	10:39am annie: oops,@Clam-digger: no, here in the us, a small suburb of asheville, nc
	👻 10:39am Brian in UK: This was recorded in a small wardrobe.
	10:39am northguineahills: @annie: Yep! (and then I lost my driver in said pond [I obviously didn't try to retrieve it])
	👻 10:40am tadpoles: #Krys O..ditto. Trust Roy Wood to keep the beat with sloshing water.
	10:40am johnk77: radio sweetheart a highlight of carlene's 1979 tour very good show selecter
	👻 10:40am Brian in UK: @ngh you have a chauffeur?
	10:42am Joe McG: Nice to have you along, Krys, johnk, all. :)
	10:42am βrian: A chauffeur for the disc golf cart, at least.
	👻 10:46am Hughie Considine: "Four Walls" belongs in a David Lynch movie.
	10:47am northguineahills: @Brian in UK: My frisbee golf driver. :)
	10:48am annie: omg, i love this guy... he got a lot of airtime when i had a show.
	10:49am The Oscar: Ha-- had this on a Dr. Demento cassette as a kid!
	10:50am Greg from ZONE 5: BRUUUUUUUCE!*
	10:50am Listener Alexandra: Good morning, Joe! I get to adopt you again next week ;-)
	10:50am queems: HAHA
	10:50am JakeGould: Amazing tho think that Fred Flintstone never rolled an ankle sliding down a dinosaur’s back like that.
	10:51am Walt: I have to say that the flipside of the Bruce Springstone single, "Take Me Out to the Ball Game", is the one that I like a lot better.
	10:51am Bobby Whirlwind: I've heard it all now
	👻 10:51am Hughie Considine: Amazing how this manages to excavate the pathos embedded like fossilized arachnids in the phrase "yabba dabba do time."
	10:52am βrian: Back then, you'd burn some skin when peeled out from the stoplight.
	10:52am The Oscar: I don't think I was familiar enough with the boss as a kid to fully enjoy that. That was really great.
	10:52am Joe McG: @Alex: Ha ha, I'm glad I won't be an orphan! :)
	10:52am annie: @ Listener Alexandra: do you have to feed him, too? what are the perks to adoption?
	10:53am Listener Alexandra: Consider your contract renewed, Joe ;-)
	10:53am The Oscar: Mrs. Robinson, you're trying to seduce me.
	👻 10:53am Hughie Considine: Sylvia! She recorded "Pillow Talk" herself after Al Green turned it down on account of its risque nature. And founded Sugar Hill Records - total icon. I went to prep school w/he son, Joey.
	10:54am Listener Alexandra: @annie Adopting Joe every year is like finding an endless box of Quisp cereal; all the goodness you remember when you were a kid and it never ends!
	10:56am Listener Alexandra: And Joe, I hope you aren't offended that I essentially compared you to Quisp cereal. I genuinely love that stuff.
	10:56am Walt: @HC, don't forget she was Sylvia of Mickey and Sylvia! "Come 'ere, lover boy!"
	10:56am Asheville Jon: recently watched the 'camping with Barry White" episode of (old school) Letterman. that was pretty funny!
	10:57am Joe McG: @Hughie: I wonder what kind of questions Joey was asked about Mom. @Alex: Aw, I'm happy to be breakfast cereal!
	10:59am Listener Alexandra: Quisp no less ;-)
	11:01am northguineahills: @The Oscar: I don't think I got Springsteen until about 2000ish. Then it clicked. (see his Suicide cover).
	11:01am Krys O.: That Springstone reminded me of Mugsy from the Uncle Floyd Show. One of his characters was Bruce Stringbean.
	👻 11:02am Brian in UK: This piano not unlike the Moody Blues break on Go Now. Seems like only yesterday.
	11:02am pantz: @Alexandria Where are you getting Quisp?! I thought that mana from heaven had been DC'd a long time ago.
	👻 11:03am tadpoles: #BrianUK .. still sounds as fresh!
	11:04am Walt: @pantz - www.walmart.com...
	👻 11:04am Hughie Considine: @Joe McG: Joey was 11 or so when the song came out, so I'm sure his 5th-grade peers were more than a little curious to parse the meaning of "Pillow Talk" with him.
	11:05am pantz: Thanks! I believe the roof of my mouth has finally healed from the last time I ate Quisp as a kid.
	👻 11:08am Brian in UK: @tadpoles I remember buying Go Now and You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling.
	👻 11:08am Hughie Considine: "Dose of Mope" sounds promising.
	11:09am annie: have to run now, see y'all later thanks for the show joe!
	11:12am rw: I accidentally pledged again last time and still feel a little guilty about making Joe fix it. Thanks Joe for taking care of it!
	11:13am yippie: good old james
	11:14am The Oscar: Going back to the beginning of the show, I definitely first heard this (in cleaned-up form) when Cab appeared on Sesame Street.
	11:16am Joe McG: Happy to do it, rw! Thanks for supporting FMU!
	11:16am steveo: we used to kick the gong around in h.s. concert band, but not the same gong as minnie.
	11:17am Listener Alexandra: Story Corner is the best ever <3
	11:18am Listener Alexandra: @pantz: apparently you can find Quisp in Nebraska...several boxes were gifted to me from there a few years ago.
	11:18am yippie: minnie the moocher is def based off of st james infirmary
	11:18am Brendan: Hi dee ho Joe. Good morning.
	👻 11:20am karlward: I have a very fond memory of watching Marty Robbins singing this as "Big Orange on his Lip" on Austin City Limits.
	11:20am Mark in Toronto: Really? You're playing 78s?
	11:21am Magnolia Warbler: Marty is such a great storyteller
	11:21am Itzall Ablurr: Dear karlward, WHY? Why big ORANGE?!? It's funny, but why?
	11:22am yippie: it was great that walter white listened to marty robbins in the car he stole in the last episodes of breaking bad
	11:22am Joe McG: @Mark: This show started as a 78 show! :)
	11:22am The Oscar: I'm not sure how many times I heard this song before I realized it wasn't "Pig Iron."
	11:23am Itzall Ablurr: Haha! The Oscar, I always thought that too!
	11:23am The Oscar: @yippie The fact that "Felina" is an anagram for "Finale" may be the most meta moment of that whole show!
	👻 11:23am Brian in UK: You could do a whole show of misheard lyrics.
	11:23am Avgwhiteguy: Hey I know the Big Iron song for Fallout new Vegas.
	👻 11:24am karlward: Itzall: youtu.be...
	11:25am yippie: the song is about goin back to the badlands in new mexico, thats why i like it
	11:25am MD: THIS STUFF IS GREAT...THANKS JOE...GLAD I WORE MY CHAPS(SCHAPES) TO WORK TODAY!!!
	11:25am yippie: thats what walt was doing
	11:25am βrian: "It's a happy enchilada, and you think you're going to drown. That's the way the world goes 'round." -John Prine (misheard)
	11:26am MD: big ending!!!
	11:26am northguineahills: Now you just need to play a '78 from '78 (if one exists).
	11:27am ?: YAY! Pop song about canibalism!!!!!
	👻 11:27am Brian in UK: @βrian yes Bruised Orange.
	11:27am The Oscar: YESSSS. I might be the only one watching "Channel Zero" on the Syfy channel (which is a shame, because it's maybe the best horror show on TV right now), but this is one of many subtle cannibal-themed soundtrack selections this season.
	11:27am Krys O.: Oh, that Rupert Holmes.
	11:28am Itzall Ablurr: Yeah, yeah... was just talking about this song Saturday; my wife (Michele) got a sweet love song by the Beatles to be teased about growing up. Me? A song about cannibalism where the guy they eat is named the same as me (in "real" life). Awesome.
	11:28am Joe McG: Rupert insisted that Timothy was the mule!
	11:28am Readie Righteous: Ahh! My hometown “buoys”! Love this one, Joe!
	11:28am Mick: Ah yes. The mule.
	11:29am Listener Alexandra: I resemble this song title...thanks, Joe :-)
	11:29am V Priceless: hey Joe! Yay this Who tune!
	11:29am SeanG: THE WHO! Hola Joe and all!
	11:30am Krys O.: Doh! The mule? A drug mule, perhaps. Hmmm. Ohm and a great track from an impeccable Who LP.
	11:31am Itzall Ablurr: I've heard the "mule theory" as well, but. Would they really say "God, what did we DO?!?" or maybe just "Wow, that mule was tasty!"...
	11:31am V Priceless: they played this @ Shea stadium gig!
	11:31am zopa: perhaps the most subdued keith moon performance
	11:33am Readie Righteous: Looking forward to meeting you next week, Joe- doing the phone thing !
	11:33am steveo: "I don't care if my shirt's all brown." LOL
	👻 11:33am doctorjazz: Petra Haden does an amazing version of this album.
	11:34am Parq: I'm old enough to remember hearing "Laundromat" on TV when it was on the charts.
	11:34am Joe McG: Cool! Look forward to meeting you, Readie!
	11:34am The Oscar: Pretty sure this is Ron Dante, better known as the voice of the Archies. I used to run eBay for a used record store, and we once got a collection from a HUGE Ron Dante fan, so I had to learn a LOT about Ron Dante.
	11:34am neilpatrick: Had "Laundromat" on a vinyl comp of goofy songs when I was a kid, havent heard it in 20 years but I think about it every time I hear the original
	11:35am Parq: doc, I see you're referring to "Sell Out". Pity; I would love to hear a Petra Hayden version of the Demento 25th album.
	11:35am Mick: @doctorjazz - agreed about Petra Haden's "The Who Sell Out." Brilliant and a half.
	11:36am northguineahills: Never heard this outside of bed music.....
	11:36am steveo: someone's backannounce bed here? (Vivien Goldman). maybe I haven't heard it for a while...
	11:36am steveo: great minds....
	11:36am The Oscar: Laundry Corner?
	11:36am Joe McG: Liz Berg, you're missed!
	11:37am steveo: ah, yes; indeed she is
	11:37am Readie Righteous: Me too, will be sooooo fun!!!
	11:37am Joe McG: @TheOscar: After all, Monday is wash day! :)
	11:37am Jim Price: Joe - i still have my copy of that Detergents 45 from my childhood and tossed it in my bag to show you later.
	11:38am Krys O.: Had the Vivian Goldman 12".
	11:38am Joe McG: @JimP: Look forward to seeing it!
	11:38am Krys O.: Everything Petra Haden does is stellar.
	11:39am βrian: Stream down??
	11:39am steveo: lost the stream here too
	11:40am Asheville Jon: did the stream just die, or is it just me?
	11:40am SeanG: yep here too
	11:40am Stashu: Hello?
	11:40am The Oscar: Same here :(
	11:40am rw: Stream seems to have stopped streaming. I'm going to throw a load of laundry in.
	11:40am Doobois: Stream down! Stream down!
	11:40am Itzall Ablurr: hello darkness, my old friend...
	👻 11:40am Brian in UK: Not just me then.
	11:40am Henry: down down down
	11:40am Devin B.: Lost stream here too
	11:40am Parq: Seems to be all of us, Jon.
	11:40am northguineahills: No stream over here.
	11:41am Krys O.: Yup, stream is down.
	11:41am Summer and Michael: We just lost the stream, too! Gah!
	11:41am βrian: Drummer stream seems ok.
	11:41am MenfussMike: rock n roll ichiban it is
	11:41am steveo: coming through on 91.9 in manhattan
	11:41am Ian: Stream down in Toronto too. Damn. First time hearing John Kirkpatrick on the radio ever?
	11:41am V Priceless: stream down, yep
	11:41am Mick: Noooooooooo!
	11:41am Asheville Jon: i've noticed that the stream has been dropping a lot more often in the past week or so.
	11:41am JFR: freakquency modulation
	11:41am Joe McG: Sorry folks, hopefully someone upstairs is on the case as I write this...
	11:41am Mark in Toronto: Down by the old mill stream.
	11:41am Billy B: net neutrality
	11:42am zopa: Hey Joe, heard any good jokes recently?
	👻 11:42am Brian in UK: Who has change from the laundromat.
	11:43am frenchee: I thought it was just me, breaking the office Internet.
	11:43am Asheville Jon: well, i guess i'll turn on some random clearchannel station. they never fail.
	11:43am Joe McG: @zopa: Here's one: Q: Why is WFMU like a salmon? A: We're always swimming upstream!
	11:43am Krys O.: Someone feed the hamster in the Innernet Wheel, please.
	11:43am northguineahills: Let us know when it's back, On GTDS until then.
	11:43am judy from croton: Nice new Music Hall song. Wonderful!
	11:44am The Oscar: @frenchee I'm usually the first one in my office to notice when the internet goes down. WFMU is my canary.
	11:44am neilpatrick: I just moved out of WFMU broadcast range. It's been hard. Radio up this far north is a very different beast
	11:44am frenchee: OF Course the stream is getting wonky a week before the marathon!
	11:44am Stashu: This is that John Cage piece...
	11:44am steveo: sounds quite good on 91.9, in fact. I guess I should save the bandwidth going forward -- does this count as upping my pledge?
	11:44am frenchee: LOL @Stashu
	👻 11:45am tadpoles: 2 Day's Monday....got your Scaffold reference Joe...so we're off to do our washing. Always thought my washing machine sounded like The Residents so it'll have to do with this dead air. Thanks for the show.
	11:45am Yvang: Hamish Radio?
	👻 11:45am 12539: Ah, the old- this-is-what-would-happen-if-no-one-pledged trick.
	11:45am Joe McG: I'm sorry you all missed the end of the John Kirkpatrick laundry story. :(
	11:45am sispus: there is stream, but totally silent :)
	11:45am kev: bummer
	11:46am northguineahills: Exactly what sispus said. Getting data, but silence....
	11:46am zopa: @Joe: Here is one for you Once there was a farmer that was very protective of his three daughters. When they told him they were going to go out on dates one night, the farmer decided to wait outside with a shotgun. The first boy arrived for the first daughter, and he said, "Hi, my name is Freddy. I'm here for Betty. We're going for spaghetti. Is she ready?" The farmer decided he was decent enough, and let them go. The second boy arrived for the second daughter, and said, "Hi, my name is Joe. I'm here for Flo. We're going to a show. Is she good to go?" Again, the farmer decided he was decent enough and let them go. Finally, the last boy came, and he said, "Hi, my name is Chuck..." and the farmer shot him.
	11:46am kbo: Stream's all I've got here on the other side of the globe though, so tuning in to FMU's frequencies isn't possible here. How to resume work amidst all this silence... :(
	👻 11:47am Brian in UK: The snow is falling in a very lazy manner over here as if it can be barely bothered to reach the ground and settle.
	11:47am Dean: What will be archived? The missing audio, or silence?
	11:47am People Like Us: I often get the 37 bus
	11:47am Krys O.: @tadpoles: Tuesday's Soup!
	11:48am Joe McG: @Dean: The show, I hope!
	👻 11:48am Brian in UK: Is that the one that goes to Dulwich?
	11:48am Asheville Jon: what girl's name rhymes with chuck?
	👻 11:48am doctorjazz: @Parq-Petra Haden is out there enough (in a good way), that if someone suggested the Dr. Demento album to here, I bet she'd seriously consider it. (the story on the "...Sell Out" album is supposed to be that Mike Watt brought her the album and an 8 track machine, with "...Sell Out" on 1 track, the rest for her to record her acapella version on. He said she never heard it. So, she's up to a dare, if someone makes it). NO SOUND, BTW
	11:48am rw: Not that it compares, but the Drummer Stream seems to be operative.
	11:49am northguineahills: ...and there is no live GTDS right now, just Doug's library playing.
	11:50am Asheville Jon: ichiban is still playing
	👻 11:50am Brian in UK: Shame you are all missing Mr Thackray.
	👻 11:50am tadpoles: Yes #Krys O ...soooooup!
	11:51am goyim in the am: @zops — interestingly, that joke contains the lyrics used on the demo version of Float On.
	11:51am Lawrence Stevenson: Archives working fine. Listening to Avant Ghetto right now.
	11:51am βrian: Hey, Zydeco on the drummer stream.
	11:51am Velvet Frog: Ah! I was just going to ask if I'm the only one! I confirm same streaming issues. Getting titles on the app though. Maybe you who are hearing can describe the songs for those of us who are not?
	11:52am sispus: i'm listening samatha's yesterday program, then.
	11:52am βrian: @Dean: should there be an editorial voice-over? As in, "This audio intentionally left silent."
	11:52am Yvang: Jake Thackray The Hole on yt www.youtube.com...
	11:52am rw: Joe, what happened with the laundry song?? I myself almost put a dog a dog treat into the laundry thinking it was detergent. Glad I caught that. Could have been tragic.
	11:54am Dominick: There you are!
	11:54am Krys O.: it's BACK!
	11:54am V Priceless: it's back!
	11:54am Asheville Jon: it's back!
	11:54am Joe McG: Today's final selection goes out to all of you Bergman fans haunting the Film Forum right now.
	👻 11:54am Brian in UK: Ten dollars works wonders.
	11:54am BronwynB: Its back!!!! Yay Scott!!!!
	11:54am The Oscar: We're back! Now we get to hear who wins the chess game.
	11:54am rsj: GTD stream playing fine, ooh, now i've got two streams going...
	11:54am Rufus J Squirrel: There we go.
	11:54am Itzall Ablurr: And there was much rejoicing.
	11:54am mg: And then there was music..
	11:54am northguineahills: Thanks Krys O.!
	👻 11:54am 12539: Just in time to say Thanks, Joe!
	👻 11:54am tadpoles: "Is everybody Happy?...You bet your life we are!"
	11:54am BronwynB: I was just about to play along at home by putting this scott song on spotify hahaha
	11:54am Mick: Back! We missed you
	11:54am -Ken: Thanks for letting us know everybody! Thanks to Jeff for kicking the cow
	11:54am Todd-o-phonic Todd: Great show this morning Joe!
	11:55am Summer and Michael: We've got the 91.1 up - it's been a while! Sounding good, tho. Love this Scott Walker. Joe, did you catch the BBC 3 "Proms" last year devoted to Scott Walker? It's still up on YouTube, I think.
	11:55am Joe McG: Well, thanks for listening everyone (as much as you were able, anyway)! I'll see you next week for fundraising time with my special co-host Matt Fiveash. Have a great week!
	11:55am Zetti: Ok, it wasn't just me.
	11:55am BronwynB: i love this song because its literally just a summary of the plot of the seventh seal with spooky background voices. scott is such a dork i love him
	11:55am Mick: Fab show Joe!
	11:56am kbo: Stream's back here as well... And with a Scott Walker song no less!
	11:56am Summer and Michael: Here it is: www.youtube.com... Great show, as ever, Joe!
	11:57am rw: thanks Joe!!
	11:57am Asheville Jon: trippy reverb
	11:57am Readie Righteous: Thanks for a great show, Joe!
	11:57am steveo: great stories joe & great show -- thanks Joe!
	11:58am The Oscar: Caught the Seventh Seal last fall at Mt. Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge (in a double feature with Harold & Maude). It was really great.
	11:58am Walt: @Ashville Jon, you didn't open up another streaming app did you? I got the reverb too and that was it!
	11:59am Asheville Jon: i just closed everything down and reopened it. could have been it
	11:59am Brendan: Thanks Joe. I’ve got to go resume a game of chess!

	9:11am melinda: Rowlf!
	9:12am Krys O.: @BronwynB: LOL!!!
	9:13am The Oscar: Anyone ever hear the album Henson recorded as Rowlf? It's pretty wonderful-- I think it was released posthumously.
	9:13am Joe McG: Good morning, everybody, and thanks for joining me this morning for radio time!
	9:13am northguineahills: Should have followed up Al "Jazzbo" Collins w/ Prince Jazzbo. How hadn't I not heard that Rowlf!???
	9:14am Brendan in Carroll Gardens: Great start Joe!
	9:15am The Oscar: Van could pass for a Muppet. Come to think of it, has anyone ever seen him from the waist down?
	9:15am Vincent Nifigance: @The Oscar He certainly hasn't seen himself from the waist down for a good few years.
	9:16am kimzilla: Is this whole week going to be puppet themed? I sure hope so.
	9:18am The Oscar: If anyone else has Filmstruck (the Criterion Collection's streaming service) they have a lot of really cool rare Jim Henson stuff, ranging from his '60s experimental shorts to TV stuff he did in the '80s.
	9:18am steveo: Good morning and happy monday, Joe & everyone.
	9:18am pantz: I sure hope you play Bowie's The Laughing Gnome. What a gas, man!
	9:18am annie: i would love to know if my memory is correct in that Rowlf was first on the jimmy dean show, ostensible the first muppet on teevee
	9:19am Clam_digger: Good morning everyone - Thank you Joe for adding my stereo icon! proud to represent the S.F.L.
	9:20am rowlf: I'm sittin' here googling Rowlf and you're playing Mr Rogers! Yip!
	9:21am Vincent Nifigance: @Annie I read Rowlf started life as a Purina commercial in 1962. He was on The Jimmy Dean Show the year after.
	9:21am northguineahills: Taking my time is why I haven't left for work yet. Thankfully, that's an option, as I set my hours.
	9:21am rowlf: "The first Muppet characters appeared in Sam and Friends, a Washington, D.C.–based show which was broadcast from 1955 to 1961"
	9:21am Colleen: I love this!!! So nice to hear Mr Rodgers!!!
	9:22am fred: "Rowlf the Dog was the first Muppet to reach national stardom as a cast member of The Jimmy Dean Show from 1963 to 1966. "

	👻 9:22am tadpoles: Mister Rogers is going to be on a stamp - released next month.
	9:23am Uncle Michael: What a delightful Monday morning this has become.
	9:23am Rob (Jerzcity): @Oscar - consistently tempted by filmstruck, but haven't pulled the trigger yet. I had the beta but I don't think I used it :{
	👻 9:24am b!!!: Oh I love The Point. This set is great!
	9:24am ?: 'Morning Joe, 'morning Noise Surfers.
	9:25am Bobby Whirlwind: Morning Joe! Loving this set!
	9:25am steveo: I was going to say that song reminded me of "He Needs Me" and then I looked at the stream player AND IT WAS NILSSON
	9:26am northguineahills: Yeah, The Point! is on Point!
	9:26am The Oscar: @Rob I'd been circling it for months and finally bit the bullet, and I haven't regretted it yet. I've got a queue of about 70 films I have no right not to have seen yet, and I've been working through it. They also add a handful of films every week in themed groups, which is much more satisfying to me than the monthly Netflix dump.
	👻 9:26am Brian in UK: Hey Joe. Oblio is a great name.
	9:28am Lixiviated Life: hello joe
	9:28am Bobby Whirlwind: Snowing here in London

	9:31am sandra in FL: beautiful set! Mr. Rogers graduated from a college right down the street from where I live.
	9:32am Itzall Ablurr: I suppose "801 + 1" (802, right?) was simply the cover charge today. Good morning, Joe, good morning Noise Surfers.
	9:33am thedunkel: Good Morning Joe! Good Morning everyone!
	9:33am Lixiviated Life: Story time! (the best)
	9:33am Readie Righteous: Yeah! Beat the Clock! I knew I remembered that song from so long ago...

	9:35am Zetti: Irene's show was great.
	9:36am annie: @ fred: yay.... i was right!
	9:36am Krys O.: Thanks for the Tom Rapp tribute.
	9:37am melinda: I caught the end of Irene's tribute, nice to hear more now.
	9:38am The Oscar: My parents LOVE this album. As I grew older, I was surprised this wasn't one of those albums everyone's parents had in their collection.

	9:38am annie: if a deejay gets "adoptd, do we have to fd them or just throw crusts now and then? seriously, though, what's involved?
	9:39am medson: Good Morning Joe.

	9:41am melinda: I adopted the kitchen garbage receptacle last year.
	9:41am Joe McG: @chris: An embarrassment of riches awaits you!
	9:42am steveo: if I adopt the studio A microphone, do i have to come and clean the spittle off it?

	9:44am annie: might just be gearing up to be yet ANOTHER episode to clicky-star... oy vey!!
	9:46am Joe McG: I love the idea that we are all "prayers of action"!
	9:47am The Oscar: @Chris Ha, awesome :)
	9:48am Dominick: nice
	9:48am medson: Can’t wait to hear what you have for songs that tell a story.
	9:50am Itzall Ablurr: A mighty fine set, dovetails nicely with my weekend binge-watching of "Mod Squad", somehow. Peace, love, bellbottoms & feathered haircuts, y'all.
	9:50am melinda: I hate it when I have to leave for work in the middle of a melancholy folk set. Will resume later.

	10:10am Sem: Well, is it true, Joe? About a radio sweetheart? Good morning, Joe. McGaskoes.
	10:11am steveo: super set
	10:12am Joe McG: @Sem: One can hope!
	10:13am Krys O.: The guitars on this Devon Lamarr remind me of Bowie's Sound & Vision.
	10:13am melinda: Is the list of DJ pairs posted yet?

	10:40am johnk77: radio sweetheart a highlight of carlene's 1979 tour very good show selecter
	👻 10:40am Brian in UK: @ngh you have a chauffeur?
	10:42am Joe McG: Nice to have you along, Krys, johnk, all. :)
	10:42am βrian: A chauffeur for the disc golf cart, at least.
	👻 10:46am Hughie Considine: "Four Walls" belongs in a David Lynch movie.
	10:47am northguineahills: @Brian in UK: My frisbee golf driver. :)
	10:48am annie: omg, i love this guy... he got a lot of airtime when i had a show.
	10:49am The Oscar: Ha-- had this on a Dr. Demento cassette as a kid!
	10:50am Greg from ZONE 5: BRUUUUUUUCE!*
	10:50am Listener Alexandra: Good morning, Joe! I get to adopt you again next week ;-)
	10:50am queems: HAHA
	10:50am JakeGould: Amazing tho think that Fred Flintstone never rolled an ankle sliding down a dinosaur’s back like that.
	10:51am Walt: I have to say that the flipside of the Bruce Springstone single, "Take Me Out to the Ball Game", is the one that I like a lot better.
	10:51am Bobby Whirlwind: I've heard it all now
	👻 10:51am Hughie Considine: Amazing how this manages to excavate the pathos embedded like fossilized arachnids in the phrase "yabba dabba do time."
	10:52am βrian: Back then, you'd burn some skin when peeled out from the stoplight.
	10:52am The Oscar: I don't think I was familiar enough with the boss as a kid to fully enjoy that. That was really great.
	10:52am Joe McG: @Alex: Ha ha, I'm glad I won't be an orphan! :)
	10:52am annie: @ Listener Alexandra: do you have to feed him, too? what are the perks to adoption?
	10:53am Listener Alexandra: Consider your contract renewed, Joe ;-)
	10:53am The Oscar: Mrs. Robinson, you're trying to seduce me.
	👻 10:53am Hughie Considine: Sylvia! She recorded "Pillow Talk" herself after Al Green turned it down on account of its risque nature. And founded Sugar Hill Records - total icon. I went to prep school w/he son, Joey.
	10:54am Listener Alexandra: @annie Adopting Joe every year is like finding an endless box of Quisp cereal; all the goodness you remember when you were a kid and it never ends!
	10:56am Listener Alexandra: And Joe, I hope you aren't offended that I essentially compared you to Quisp cereal. I genuinely love that stuff.
	10:56am Walt: @HC, don't forget she was Sylvia of Mickey and Sylvia! "Come 'ere, lover boy!"
	10:56am Asheville Jon: recently watched the 'camping with Barry White" episode of (old school) Letterman. that was pretty funny!
	10:57am Joe McG: @Hughie: I wonder what kind of questions Joey was asked about Mom. @Alex: Aw, I'm happy to be breakfast cereal!
	10:59am Listener Alexandra: Quisp no less ;-)
	11:01am northguineahills: @The Oscar: I don't think I got Springsteen until about 2000ish. Then it clicked. (see his Suicide cover).
	11:01am Krys O.: That Springstone reminded me of Mugsy from the Uncle Floyd Show. One of his characters was Bruce Stringbean.
	👻 11:02am Brian in UK: This piano not unlike the Moody Blues break on Go Now. Seems like only yesterday.
	11:02am pantz: @Alexandria Where are you getting Quisp?! I thought that mana from heaven had been DC'd a long time ago.
	👻 11:03am tadpoles: #BrianUK .. still sounds as fresh!
	11:04am Walt: @pantz - www.walmart.com...
	👻 11:04am Hughie Considine: @Joe McG: Joey was 11 or so when the song came out, so I'm sure his 5th-grade peers were more than a little curious to parse the meaning of "Pillow Talk" with him.
	11:05am pantz: Thanks! I believe the roof of my mouth has finally healed from the last time I ate Quisp as a kid.
	👻 11:08am Brian in UK: @tadpoles I remember buying Go Now and You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling.
	👻 11:08am Hughie Considine: "Dose of Mope" sounds promising.
	11:09am annie: have to run now, see y'all later thanks for the show joe!
	11:12am rw: I accidentally pledged again last time and still feel a little guilty about making Joe fix it. Thanks Joe for taking care of it!
	11:13am yippie: good old james
	11:14am The Oscar: Going back to the beginning of the show, I definitely first heard this (in cleaned-up form) when Cab appeared on Sesame Street.
	11:16am Joe McG: Happy to do it, rw! Thanks for supporting FMU!
	11:16am steveo: we used to kick the gong around in h.s. concert band, but not the same gong as minnie.
	11:17am Listener Alexandra: Story Corner is the best ever <3
	11:18am Listener Alexandra: @pantz: apparently you can find Quisp in Nebraska...several boxes were gifted to me from there a few years ago.
	11:18am yippie: minnie the moocher is def based off of st james infirmary
	11:18am Brendan: Hi dee ho Joe. Good morning.
	👻 11:20am karlward: I have a very fond memory of watching Marty Robbins singing this as "Big Orange on his Lip" on Austin City Limits.
	11:20am Mark in Toronto: Really? You're playing 78s?
	11:21am Magnolia Warbler: Marty is such a great storyteller
	11:21am Itzall Ablurr: Dear karlward, WHY? Why big ORANGE?!? It's funny, but why?
	11:22am yippie: it was great that walter white listened to marty robbins in the car he stole in the last episodes of breaking bad
	11:22am Joe McG: @Mark: This show started as a 78 show! :)
	11:22am The Oscar: I'm not sure how many times I heard this song before I realized it wasn't "Pig Iron."
	11:23am Itzall Ablurr: Haha! The Oscar, I always thought that too!
	11:23am The Oscar: @yippie The fact that "Felina" is an anagram for "Finale" may be the most meta moment of that whole show!
	👻 11:23am Brian in UK: You could do a whole show of misheard lyrics.
	11:23am Avgwhiteguy: Hey I know the Big Iron song for Fallout new Vegas.
	👻 11:24am karlward: Itzall: youtu.be...
	11:25am yippie: the song is about goin back to the badlands in new mexico, thats why i like it
	11:25am MD: THIS STUFF IS GREAT...THANKS JOE...GLAD I WORE MY CHAPS(SCHAPES) TO WORK TODAY!!!
	11:25am yippie: thats what walt was doing
	11:25am βrian: "It's a happy enchilada, and you think you're going to drown. That's the way the world goes 'round." -John Prine (misheard)
	11:26am MD: big ending!!!
	11:26am northguineahills: Now you just need to play a '78 from '78 (if one exists).
	11:27am ?: YAY! Pop song about canibalism!!!!!
	👻 11:27am Brian in UK: @βrian yes Bruised Orange.
	11:27am The Oscar: YESSSS. I might be the only one watching "Channel Zero" on the Syfy channel (which is a shame, because it's maybe the best horror show on TV right now), but this is one of many subtle cannibal-themed soundtrack selections this season.
	11:27am Krys O.: Oh, that Rupert Holmes.
	11:28am Itzall Ablurr: Yeah, yeah... was just talking about this song Saturday; my wife (Michele) got a sweet love song by the Beatles to be teased about growing up. Me? A song about cannibalism where the guy they eat is named the same as me (in "real" life). Awesome.
	11:28am Joe McG: Rupert insisted that Timothy was the mule!
	11:28am Readie Righteous: Ahh! My hometown “buoys”! Love this one, Joe!
	11:28am Mick: Ah yes. The mule.
	11:29am Listener Alexandra: I resemble this song title...thanks, Joe :-)
	11:29am V Priceless: hey Joe! Yay this Who tune!
	11:29am SeanG: THE WHO! Hola Joe and all!
	11:30am Krys O.: Doh! The mule? A drug mule, perhaps. Hmmm. Ohm and a great track from an impeccable Who LP.
	11:31am Itzall Ablurr: I've heard the "mule theory" as well, but. Would they really say "God, what did we DO?!?" or maybe just "Wow, that mule was tasty!"...
	11:31am V Priceless: they played this @ Shea stadium gig!
	11:31am zopa: perhaps the most subdued keith moon performance
	11:33am Readie Righteous: Looking forward to meeting you next week, Joe- doing the phone thing !
	11:33am steveo: "I don't care if my shirt's all brown." LOL
	👻 11:33am doctorjazz: Petra Haden does an amazing version of this album.
	11:34am Parq: I'm old enough to remember hearing "Laundromat" on TV when it was on the charts.
	11:34am Joe McG: Cool! Look forward to meeting you, Readie!
	11:34am The Oscar: Pretty sure this is Ron Dante, better known as the voice of the Archies. I used to run eBay for a used record store, and we once got a collection from a HUGE Ron Dante fan, so I had to learn a LOT about Ron Dante.
	11:34am neilpatrick: Had "Laundromat" on a vinyl comp of goofy songs when I was a kid, havent heard it in 20 years but I think about it every time I hear the original
	11:35am Parq: doc, I see you're referring to "Sell Out". Pity; I would love to hear a Petra Hayden version of the Demento 25th album.
	11:35am Mick: @doctorjazz - agreed about Petra Haden's "The Who Sell Out." Brilliant and a half.
	11:36am northguineahills: Never heard this outside of bed music.....
	11:36am steveo: someone's backannounce bed here? (Vivien Goldman). maybe I haven't heard it for a while...
	11:36am steveo: great minds....
	11:36am The Oscar: Laundry Corner?
	11:36am Joe McG: Liz Berg, you're missed!
	11:37am steveo: ah, yes; indeed she is
	11:37am Readie Righteous: Me too, will be sooooo fun!!!
	11:37am Joe McG: @TheOscar: After all, Monday is wash day! :)
	11:37am Jim Price: Joe - i still have my copy of that Detergents 45 from my childhood and tossed it in my bag to show you later.
	11:38am Krys O.: Had the Vivian Goldman 12".
	11:38am Joe McG: @JimP: Look forward to seeing it!
	11:38am Krys O.: Everything Petra Haden does is stellar.
	11:39am βrian: Stream down??
	11:39am steveo: lost the stream here too
	11:40am Asheville Jon: did the stream just die, or is it just me?
	11:40am SeanG: yep here too
	11:40am Stashu: Hello?
	11:40am The Oscar: Same here :(
	11:40am rw: Stream seems to have stopped streaming. I'm going to throw a load of laundry in.
	11:40am Doobois: Stream down! Stream down!
	11:40am Itzall Ablurr: hello darkness, my old friend...
	👻 11:40am Brian in UK: Not just me then.
	11:40am Henry: down down down
	11:40am Devin B.: Lost stream here too
	11:40am Parq: Seems to be all of us, Jon.
	11:40am northguineahills: No stream over here.
	11:41am Krys O.: Yup, stream is down.
	11:41am Summer and Michael: We just lost the stream, too! Gah!
	11:41am βrian: Drummer stream seems ok.
	11:41am MenfussMike: rock n roll ichiban it is
	11:41am steveo: coming through on 91.9 in manhattan
	11:41am Ian: Stream down in Toronto too. Damn. First time hearing John Kirkpatrick on the radio ever?
	11:41am V Priceless: stream down, yep
	11:41am Mick: Noooooooooo!
	11:41am Asheville Jon: i've noticed that the stream has been dropping a lot more often in the past week or so.
	11:41am JFR: freakquency modulation
	11:41am Joe McG: Sorry folks, hopefully someone upstairs is on the case as I write this...
	11:41am Mark in Toronto: Down by the old mill stream.
	11:41am Billy B: net neutrality
	11:42am zopa: Hey Joe, heard any good jokes recently?
	👻 11:42am Brian in UK: Who has change from the laundromat.
	11:43am frenchee: I thought it was just me, breaking the office Internet.
	11:43am Asheville Jon: well, i guess i'll turn on some random clearchannel station. they never fail.
	11:43am Joe McG: @zopa: Here's one: Q: Why is WFMU like a salmon? A: We're always swimming upstream!
	11:43am Krys O.: Someone feed the hamster in the Innernet Wheel, please.
	11:43am northguineahills: Let us know when it's back, On GTDS until then.
	11:43am judy from croton: Nice new Music Hall song. Wonderful!
	11:44am The Oscar: @frenchee I'm usually the first one in my office to notice when the internet goes down. WFMU is my canary.
	11:44am neilpatrick: I just moved out of WFMU broadcast range. It's been hard. Radio up this far north is a very different beast
	11:44am frenchee: OF Course the stream is getting wonky a week before the marathon!
	11:44am Stashu: This is that John Cage piece...
	11:44am steveo: sounds quite good on 91.9, in fact. I guess I should save the bandwidth going forward -- does this count as upping my pledge?
	11:44am frenchee: LOL @Stashu
	👻 11:45am tadpoles: 2 Day's Monday....got your Scaffold reference Joe...so we're off to do our washing. Always thought my washing machine sounded like The Residents so it'll have to do with this dead air. Thanks for the show.
	11:45am Yvang: Hamish Radio?
	👻 11:45am 12539: Ah, the old- this-is-what-would-happen-if-no-one-pledged trick.
	11:45am Joe McG: I'm sorry you all missed the end of the John Kirkpatrick laundry story. :(
	11:45am sispus: there is stream, but totally silent :)
	11:45am kev: bummer
	11:46am northguineahills: Exactly what sispus said. Getting data, but silence....
	11:46am zopa: @Joe: Here is one for you Once there was a farmer that was very protective of his three daughters. When they told him they were going to go out on dates one night, the farmer decided to wait outside with a shotgun. The first boy arrived for the first daughter, and he said, "Hi, my name is Freddy. I'm here for Betty. We're going for spaghetti. Is she ready?" The farmer decided he was decent enough, and let them go. The second boy arrived for the second daughter, and said, "Hi, my name is Joe. I'm here for Flo. We're going to a show. Is she good to go?" Again, the farmer decided he was decent enough and let them go. Finally, the last boy came, and he said, "Hi, my name is Chuck..." and the farmer shot him.
	11:46am kbo: Stream's all I've got here on the other side of the globe though, so tuning in to FMU's frequencies isn't possible here. How to resume work amidst all this silence... :(
	👻 11:47am Brian in UK: The snow is falling in a very lazy manner over here as if it can be barely bothered to reach the ground and settle.
	11:47am Dean: What will be archived? The missing audio, or silence?
	11:47am People Like Us: I often get the 37 bus
	11:47am Krys O.: @tadpoles: Tuesday's Soup!
	11:48am Joe McG: @Dean: The show, I hope!
	👻 11:48am Brian in UK: Is that the one that goes to Dulwich?
	11:48am Asheville Jon: what girl's name rhymes with chuck?
	👻 11:48am doctorjazz: @Parq-Petra Haden is out there enough (in a good way), that if someone suggested the Dr. Demento album to here, I bet she'd seriously consider it. (the story on the "...Sell Out" album is supposed to be that Mike Watt brought her the album and an 8 track machine, with "...Sell Out" on 1 track, the rest for her to record her acapella version on. He said she never heard it. So, she's up to a dare, if someone makes it). NO SOUND, BTW
	11:48am rw: Not that it compares, but the Drummer Stream seems to be operative.
	11:49am northguineahills: ...and there is no live GTDS right now, just Doug's library playing.
	11:50am Asheville Jon: ichiban is still playing
	👻 11:50am Brian in UK: Shame you are all missing Mr Thackray.
	👻 11:50am tadpoles: Yes #Krys O ...soooooup!
	11:51am goyim in the am: @zops — interestingly, that joke contains the lyrics used on the demo version of Float On.
	11:51am Lawrence Stevenson: Archives working fine. Listening to Avant Ghetto right now.
	11:51am βrian: Hey, Zydeco on the drummer stream.
	11:51am Velvet Frog: Ah! I was just going to ask if I'm the only one! I confirm same streaming issues. Getting titles on the app though. Maybe you who are hearing can describe the songs for those of us who are not?
	11:52am sispus: i'm listening samatha's yesterday program, then.
	11:52am βrian: @Dean: should there be an editorial voice-over? As in, "This audio intentionally left silent."
	11:52am Yvang: Jake Thackray The Hole on yt www.youtube.com...
	11:52am rw: Joe, what happened with the laundry song?? I myself almost put a dog a dog treat into the laundry thinking it was detergent. Glad I caught that. Could have been tragic.
	11:54am Dominick: There you are!
	11:54am Krys O.: it's BACK!
	11:54am V Priceless: it's back!
	11:54am Asheville Jon: it's back!
	11:54am Joe McG: Today's final selection goes out to all of you Bergman fans haunting the Film Forum right now.
	👻 11:54am Brian in UK: Ten dollars works wonders.
	11:54am BronwynB: Its back!!!! Yay Scott!!!!
	11:54am The Oscar: We're back! Now we get to hear who wins the chess game.
	11:54am rsj: GTD stream playing fine, ooh, now i've got two streams going...
	11:54am Rufus J Squirrel: There we go.
	11:54am Itzall Ablurr: And there was much rejoicing.
	11:54am mg: And then there was music..
	11:54am northguineahills: Thanks Krys O.!
	👻 11:54am 12539: Just in time to say Thanks, Joe!
	👻 11:54am tadpoles: "Is everybody Happy?...You bet your life we are!"
	11:54am BronwynB: I was just about to play along at home by putting this scott song on spotify hahaha
	11:54am Mick: Back! We missed you
	11:54am -Ken: Thanks for letting us know everybody! Thanks to Jeff for kicking the cow
	11:54am Todd-o-phonic Todd: Great show this morning Joe!
	11:55am Summer and Michael: We've got the 91.1 up - it's been a while! Sounding good, tho. Love this Scott Walker. Joe, did you catch the BBC 3 "Proms" last year devoted to Scott Walker? It's still up on YouTube, I think.
	11:55am Joe McG: Well, thanks for listening everyone (as much as you were able, anyway)! I'll see you next week for fundraising time with my special co-host Matt Fiveash. Have a great week!
	11:55am Zetti: Ok, it wasn't just me.
	11:55am BronwynB: i love this song because its literally just a summary of the plot of the seventh seal with spooky background voices. scott is such a dork i love him
	11:55am Mick: Fab show Joe!
	11:56am kbo: Stream's back here as well... And with a Scott Walker song no less!
	11:56am Summer and Michael: Here it is: www.youtube.com... Great show, as ever, Joe!
	11:57am rw: thanks Joe!!
	11:57am Asheville Jon: trippy reverb
	11:57am Readie Righteous: Thanks for a great show, Joe!
	11:57am steveo: great stories joe & great show -- thanks Joe!
	11:58am The Oscar: Caught the Seventh Seal last fall at Mt. Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge (in a double feature with Harold & Maude). It was really great.
	11:58am Walt: @Ashville Jon, you didn't open up another streaming app did you? I got the reverb too and that was it!
	11:59am Asheville Jon: i just closed everything down and reopened it. could have been it
	11:59am Brendan: Thanks Joe. I’ve got to go resume a game of chess!
