Listener comments!
	5:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: And we're off! :-)
	5:01pm ParUbi: Hey guys, just joining from Olivia's show. Worth a listen in the archives-- she interviews an artist who makes porcelain food.
	5:02pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hey ParUbi!
	5:03pm Rich in Washington: Hi everyone! Listening from quarantine. I've got some kind of weird virus or something.
	5:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Rich! I just saw that on your Facebook :-( Sending you healing vibes and soothing music :-)
	5:04pm ParUbi: Weird viruses are the worst!
	5:05pm Rich in Washington: I'm having one of those days! <Hand up>
	5:05pm ParUbi: My wife brought back some special mints from Oregon last year. I had too many because I thought they didn't do anything, and boy was I happy music existed when they finally kicked in. It was not pleasant, but music got me through.
	5:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I don't know what the hell was up today ... I made all these plans over the holidays and had all these energy surges and then today ... I don't even know. It took me two hours to get ready this morning. Two hours. But I'm here now :-)
	5:06pm Martinibomb: Present! Sounding great.. I have to take my best buddy to the doggy dentist at in 50min.. 16yrs old Chihuahua
	5:06pm Rich in Washington: I don't want to get my sweetie sick. She's about to don a catcher's mitt for our daughter's impending baby event!
	5:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi MB!
	5:07pm Martinibomb: @Rich congrats Grandpa!
	5:07pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ooo! New baby! :-)
	5:08pm ParUbi: Oh boy, that's a world changer!
	5:08pm ParUbi: Congratulations!
	5:09pm Rich in Washington: Hey, ParUbi! Olivia's shows are great! Still forget that she's on Mondays now. Was listening to Resonance.fm one Saturday over the holidays and they rebroadcast one of her episodes there. Don't know if it's a regular thing, but that was cool.
	5:10pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I get my tiny person fix via my three year old niece :-)
	5:10pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I need to figure out how to promote myself. I am so shit at it.
	5:11pm ParUbi: @Rich-- funnily enough, I randomly tuned into Resonance today and caught a cool interview about the power of drawing. Haven't tuned in in months.
	5:12pm Martinibomb: oliva was inspiring me today as I'm getting ready to submit a proposal for a new show at Freeform Portland that features live interviews with visual artists with live electronic/ambient musicians supplying background music.
	5:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - that sounds cool!
	5:13pm ParUbi: Wow, I'd love to tune into something like that, MB!
	5:15pm artbrau: @parubi, I've heard of eating clay. I guess porcelain is the crunchy spread.
	5:15pm Martinibomb: I'm very interested in hyper-local/community building. But I will probably aria few episodes here I'm sure .. if I end up doing it.
	5:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi artbrau :-)
	5:17pm artbrau: Thanks for spinning. Ennio washes away all the dirt.
	5:17pm ParUbi: Yes, I'm interested in the jar of spicy-crip/Godmother's sauce she made. That would be extra crispy/crunchy!
	5:17pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Clean with Ennio! ;-)
	5:18pm Martinibomb: one of my fave morricone songs
	5:21pm Rich in Washington: I like resonance quite a bit but their program flow can be infuriating at times. A really sublime music show, then a stockmarket chat show, another great music show...
	5:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: This music is cheering me up immensely - the perfect balm :-)
	5:21pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I usually listen to Resonance on mixcloud - that way you can pick and choose ;-)
	5:23pm Martinibomb: was not expecting this track to make it to the mix! nice I have this on vinyl
	5:24pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - I love this one :-) It's sooooo dreamy and lush :-)
	5:25pm artbrau: It's very Burt-y.
	5:26pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Yes!! Very much so :-)
	5:29pm Rich in Washington: This is lovely music!
	5:29pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I think I hit a nice ambient mix this week :-)
	5:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Now we just need a beach and some smart cocktails ;-)
	5:36pm DJ GeorgyGirl: How does the microphone sound by the way?
	5:37pm Rich in Washington: Your mic and voice sound great!
	5:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you, Rich! :-) This year I'm hoping to upgrade to a proper mic setup and maybe ... possibly .. gulp ... do a live show. ;-)
	5:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: When I was working out the playlist today, I was doing comedy voiceovers for travel programmes and 1970s commercials ;-) "Brentford Nylons! Quality sleepwear at low low prices! Highly flammable but oh so stylish!"
	5:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Was nylon bedding ever a thing in the US or was it a strictly British thing?
	5:43pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Nylon sheets and nylon pyjamas - if you turned over suddenly in the night you would literally give yourself an electric shock. It was terrifying. I do NOT miss that at all.
	5:43pm Martinibomb: I don't remember Nylon bedding at all
	5:43pm ParUbi: This is like a cool breeze in my brain cells. Nylon bedding sounds really sweaty.
	5:44pm Rich in Washington: I'm not sure. What's nylon bedding?
	5:44pm ParUbi: I didn't realize that you could actually see static sparks on clothes from the dryer until recently. Just turn the lights out!
	5:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Literally sheets made out of nylon fabrics. As disgusting, itchy, sweaty, and flammable as it sounds. LOL
	5:44pm Martinibomb: My skin hates synthetic or anything scratchy just tend to like cotton tho hemp is probably my fave fabric
	5:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I like "a cool breeze in my brain" :-)
	5:45pm Martinibomb: I have this one hemp shirt that is 30yrs old. No holes looks perfect. and it's soft as hell! crazy durable.
	5:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - my friend Russell used to buy hemp t-shirts and they were so soft and durable. Lovely things :-)
	5:46pm Martinibomb: I think the only reason hemp is illegal is because it last too long for our consumerist culture
	5:46pm Rich in Washington: I was once making a cup of coffee in total darkness and - realizing we were nearly out of sugar in the bowl - scraped the sides with the teaspoon and saw Sparks.
	5:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hemp is a wonder thing, it really is :-) So many uses.
	5:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - sparks from sugar?? Wow!
	5:47pm Mark R: I know this is trite and obvious, George, but Instagram, Facebook and Twitter, regularly updated, are pretty much mandatory for promotion nowadays. I don't know if you DJ in clubs, but of course those are wonderful events to tweet about, or interesting music releases. or blah blah blah.
	5:47pm ParUbi: Wow, I'll have to try that. I remember friends in college hooking a pickle to the electric outlet. That was also quite a shine
	5:48pm Martinibomb: @GG Psst Rich is super sick he's hallucinating electricity from the sugar bowl
	5:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I've done the thing where you rub an unlit match between your thumb and forefinger and then turn out the lights to see your fingers glow :-)
	5:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mar R - yeah ... social media logarithms are a bugger these days tho. We have a Sheena Facebook group that we all update regularly but it doesn't seem to make a dent.
	5:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Mark not Mar - my fingers don't work! ;-)
	5:50pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Algorithms! Logarithms were at school. lol
	5:51pm Martinibomb: @GG social media// gotta hashtag more
	5:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - I didn't want to say anything ... ;-)
	5:52pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I need to do one of those social media online course things.
	5:52pm ParUbi: Electricity is all around us-- cue 70s science filmstrip synths
	5:53pm Martinibomb: @GG social media = build community/engage/hashtags - I am terrible at it only because I'm shy and hate dealing with troublesome people
	5:54pm Dave in St Albans UK: Just popped in to say Hi DJGG.!Sounding like yet another great show which I shall enjoy tomorrow whilst cleaning and hoovering the house. Domestic Dave ;-)
	5:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - my own shyness isn't helping, I have to admit. I hate asking people to share my show links. :-(
	5:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello Domestic Dave! :-)
	5:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: New Year New me - I shall be more forthright. :-)
	5:55pm Martinibomb: ^ yep
	5:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: If you like my shows, lovely people - tell your friends! Share the links to the playlists! :-)
	5:56pm Martinibomb: Okay I have to get ready to leave the house. I enjoyed what I've heard so far.. ez breezy and loverly
	5:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - hope the doggy dentist goes well! :-)
	5:56pm Martinibomb: Sad I will miss the always fabulous Mr. Fab
	5:57pm Rich in Washington: I used to do crazy stuff with high potential testers at an old job. I once skewered an orange with two copper rods and then hooked the positive lead to one and the negative to other and sent about 10,000 volts through it. For one brief second it lit up like a lightbulb and spewed steaming hot OJ through the holes before exploding.
	5:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I have the playlist to hand and it's looking good :-)
	5:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - I am terrified and intrigued in equal measures lol :-)
	6:00pm Rich in Washington: We would just get so bored. Dangerous and stupid pranks kept us sane, but not so dangerous and stupid that we'd be unemployed.
	6:00pm ParUbi: *do not attempt at home
	6:00pm Mr Fab: Aaaaah, feelin so EZ now. Man, I use to clean out thrift stores and the EZ bins of record shops looking for this kinda thing late 80s/90s. It was the only way to know what these records sounded like.
	6:02pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I used to work at a US style 50s diner in Brighton back in the 90s and we did some very insane theatrical things for the customers when we were bored. The Deer Hunter ... rabies ... severed heads on the counter ... zombies ... Star Trek ... I'll have to talk about this on the air one day ;-)
	6:02pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Mr Fab!! :-)
	6:03pm Rich in Washington: Mr. Fab's gonna do a show! That's the rumor I keep hearing!
	6:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Well ... he'll do it if I can get his rider together in time. There's still time to get red M&Ms right?
	6:06pm Mr Fab: Damn well better be!
	6:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: <sobbing> I'm going as fast as I can!! LOL ;-)
	6:06pm Mr Fab: Georgy, where’s my cape? The blue one, THE BLUE ONE!
	6:07pm DJ GeorgyGirl: <out of breath> Here! It's here! <whispers>Bloody diva ... ;-)
	6:08pm Mr Fab: Ha ha! Naw, GG’s been great holding down the Stop Hitting Yourself slot til Spcebrother beams back down.
	6:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Every time I type Italian words into the playlist I get a sea of red wavy lines ... "WHAT IS THIS... FOREIGNESS"?? :-)
	6:10pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It's been fun playing stuff that I can't fit into my other shows - but I do miss hearing Greg. He's aiming to be back next Monday :-)
	6:11pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I did say to him that I had a moment of madness where I thought that maybe I could do another show ... and then I gave myself a good talking to. "STOP IT!!" ;-)
	6:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Although ... now that Jan's on a par with me in terms of hours ... ;-)
	6:18pm Mr Fab: Yep, Jan is moving his “Sounds Under 64” show to Thu, and adding an hour. 5 hours a week for him too. Dang, you guys could have your own daily morning show or sumthin.
	6:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - don't tempt me ;-)
	6:19pm Rich in Washington: Ooo! I would totally listen to a drive-time Sheena show (although it'd be bedtime for either GG or Jan)!
	6:20pm Rich in Washington: ...give Clay Pigeon a run for his money..
	6:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Do LHT and Flange count as drivetime?
	6:22pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Can you tell that I had no script this week? ;-)
	6:24pm Mark R: I know--Georgy not George, too! Facebook is the least important of the three. I hate Twitter, but it's an indispensable tool in self-promotion. For God's sakes, you don't have to tweet as much as Trump does (he has nothing better to do), but 3 or 4 a day keeps you out there, and then someone re-tweets something or you re-tweet something and the next thing you know, you've got 200,000 followers--20 of whom might actually listen to your show!
	6:24pm Rich in Washington: It all depends on whose timezone you're in. Is drivetime a radio term on your side of the pond?
	6:25pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mark R - I have been thinking about getting more into Twitter and Instagram. :-) @Rich - yep, totally a thing here :-)
	6:25pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I was just thinking that LHT is 5 to 7, and Flange is 4 to 6 so they do occupy that zone :-)
	6:27pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'll have to make some really cheesy idents and TALK LOUD in some parts and EMPHASISE things arbitrarily ;-)
	6:30pm Rich in Washington: I once took a 'reading for news radio' class and the WEIRD emphasis thing on CERTAIN words just screwed me up. Like a roller coastery speech pattern for no reason.
	6:30pm Rich in Washington: I can't listen to any morning commercial radio because of all the incessant chuckling/fake guffawing.
	6:31pm DJ GeorgyGirl: "LIVE AT FIVE! It's the freakyfunkyfab FLANGE! Coming up next it's MOD MADNESS! Yes! Break on through Brit Boys! We've got HITS! HITS! And MORE HITS from the SEXY SIXTIES!!" ;-)
	6:33pm Rich in Washington: I need to watch the Alan Partridge series where he's doing local radio again.
	6:34pm DJ GeorgyGirl: When I was on hospital radio Steve Coogan was the patron :-) He did tons of charity events :-) I think he even did some as Alan Partridge.
	6:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I need to think of some regular slots - like Darryl does with dentist. Those are always fun.
	6:38pm Rich in Washington: I desperately want that goofy Alan headshot (where he's holding a cup of coffee) to frame in my office.
	6:39pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I liked doing hospital radio :-) Every hour you had to do a PSA about your family and friends using hand sanitizer whenever they visited the ward. That's not something you get on regular radio ;-)
	6:40pm Rich in Washington: Do you have any airchecks from your hospital radio days?
	6:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: And the news feed that we used got stuck so every day for a month was Nelson Mandela's funeral. @Rich - somewhere! I shall have to dig it out :-) Sadly, there is no recording of when I couldn't stop laughing on air during a "this week's craziest stories" segment. I had to leave the studio and let my colleagues carry on because I was laughing so much. :-)
	6:51pm Rich in Washington: That's hilarious! The newsfeed being stuck!
	6:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: One of my colleagues said "He's still dead then, yeah?" ;-)
	6:53pm Rich in Washington: HA!
	6:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Mr Fab is next!! EXCITEMENT! :-) wfmu.org...
	6:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you all for listening - huge hugs to you all! :-)
	6:55pm Rob: thanks for the tunes!
	6:56pm Rich in Washington: Fun show! Just what the doctor ordered! Thanks, DJ GeorgyGirl!
	6:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello Rob! Thank you :-)

	5:53pm Martinibomb: @GG social media = build community/engage/hashtags - I am terrible at it only because I'm shy and hate dealing with troublesome people
	5:54pm Dave in St Albans UK: Just popped in to say Hi DJGG.!Sounding like yet another great show which I shall enjoy tomorrow whilst cleaning and hoovering the house. Domestic Dave ;-)
	5:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - my own shyness isn't helping, I have to admit. I hate asking people to share my show links. :-(
	5:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello Domestic Dave! :-)
	5:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: New Year New me - I shall be more forthright. :-)
	5:55pm Martinibomb: ^ yep
	5:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: If you like my shows, lovely people - tell your friends! Share the links to the playlists! :-)
	5:56pm Martinibomb: Okay I have to get ready to leave the house. I enjoyed what I've heard so far.. ez breezy and loverly
	5:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MB - hope the doggy dentist goes well! :-)
	5:56pm Martinibomb: Sad I will miss the always fabulous Mr. Fab
	5:57pm Rich in Washington: I used to do crazy stuff with high potential testers at an old job. I once skewered an orange with two copper rods and then hooked the positive lead to one and the negative to other and sent about 10,000 volts through it. For one brief second it lit up like a lightbulb and spewed steaming hot OJ through the holes before exploding.
	5:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I have the playlist to hand and it's looking good :-)
	5:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - I am terrified and intrigued in equal measures lol :-)
	6:00pm Rich in Washington: We would just get so bored. Dangerous and stupid pranks kept us sane, but not so dangerous and stupid that we'd be unemployed.
	6:00pm ParUbi: *do not attempt at home
	6:00pm Mr Fab: Aaaaah, feelin so EZ now. Man, I use to clean out thrift stores and the EZ bins of record shops looking for this kinda thing late 80s/90s. It was the only way to know what these records sounded like.
	6:02pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I used to work at a US style 50s diner in Brighton back in the 90s and we did some very insane theatrical things for the customers when we were bored. The Deer Hunter ... rabies ... severed heads on the counter ... zombies ... Star Trek ... I'll have to talk about this on the air one day ;-)
	6:02pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi Mr Fab!! :-)
	6:03pm Rich in Washington: Mr. Fab's gonna do a show! That's the rumor I keep hearing!
	6:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Well ... he'll do it if I can get his rider together in time. There's still time to get red M&Ms right?
	6:06pm Mr Fab: Damn well better be!
	6:06pm DJ GeorgyGirl: <sobbing> I'm going as fast as I can!! LOL ;-)
	6:06pm Mr Fab: Georgy, where’s my cape? The blue one, THE BLUE ONE!
	6:07pm DJ GeorgyGirl: <out of breath> Here! It's here! <whispers>Bloody diva ... ;-)
	6:08pm Mr Fab: Ha ha! Naw, GG’s been great holding down the Stop Hitting Yourself slot til Spcebrother beams back down.
	6:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Every time I type Italian words into the playlist I get a sea of red wavy lines ... "WHAT IS THIS... FOREIGNESS"?? :-)
	6:10pm DJ GeorgyGirl: It's been fun playing stuff that I can't fit into my other shows - but I do miss hearing Greg. He's aiming to be back next Monday :-)
	6:11pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I did say to him that I had a moment of madness where I thought that maybe I could do another show ... and then I gave myself a good talking to. "STOP IT!!" ;-)
	6:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Although ... now that Jan's on a par with me in terms of hours ... ;-)
	6:18pm Mr Fab: Yep, Jan is moving his “Sounds Under 64” show to Thu, and adding an hour. 5 hours a week for him too. Dang, you guys could have your own daily morning show or sumthin.
	6:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - don't tempt me ;-)
	6:19pm Rich in Washington: Ooo! I would totally listen to a drive-time Sheena show (although it'd be bedtime for either GG or Jan)!
	6:20pm Rich in Washington: ...give Clay Pigeon a run for his money..
	6:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Do LHT and Flange count as drivetime?
	6:22pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Can you tell that I had no script this week? ;-)
	6:24pm Mark R: I know--Georgy not George, too! Facebook is the least important of the three. I hate Twitter, but it's an indispensable tool in self-promotion. For God's sakes, you don't have to tweet as much as Trump does (he has nothing better to do), but 3 or 4 a day keeps you out there, and then someone re-tweets something or you re-tweet something and the next thing you know, you've got 200,000 followers--20 of whom might actually listen to your show!
	6:24pm Rich in Washington: It all depends on whose timezone you're in. Is drivetime a radio term on your side of the pond?
	6:25pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mark R - I have been thinking about getting more into Twitter and Instagram. :-) @Rich - yep, totally a thing here :-)
	6:25pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I was just thinking that LHT is 5 to 7, and Flange is 4 to 6 so they do occupy that zone :-)
	6:27pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'll have to make some really cheesy idents and TALK LOUD in some parts and EMPHASISE things arbitrarily ;-)
	6:30pm Rich in Washington: I once took a 'reading for news radio' class and the WEIRD emphasis thing on CERTAIN words just screwed me up. Like a roller coastery speech pattern for no reason.
	6:30pm Rich in Washington: I can't listen to any morning commercial radio because of all the incessant chuckling/fake guffawing.
	6:31pm DJ GeorgyGirl: "LIVE AT FIVE! It's the freakyfunkyfab FLANGE! Coming up next it's MOD MADNESS! Yes! Break on through Brit Boys! We've got HITS! HITS! And MORE HITS from the SEXY SIXTIES!!" ;-)
	6:33pm Rich in Washington: I need to watch the Alan Partridge series where he's doing local radio again.
	6:34pm DJ GeorgyGirl: When I was on hospital radio Steve Coogan was the patron :-) He did tons of charity events :-) I think he even did some as Alan Partridge.
	6:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I need to think of some regular slots - like Darryl does with dentist. Those are always fun.
	6:38pm Rich in Washington: I desperately want that goofy Alan headshot (where he's holding a cup of coffee) to frame in my office.
	6:39pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I liked doing hospital radio :-) Every hour you had to do a PSA about your family and friends using hand sanitizer whenever they visited the ward. That's not something you get on regular radio ;-)
	6:40pm Rich in Washington: Do you have any airchecks from your hospital radio days?
	6:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: And the news feed that we used got stuck so every day for a month was Nelson Mandela's funeral. @Rich - somewhere! I shall have to dig it out :-) Sadly, there is no recording of when I couldn't stop laughing on air during a "this week's craziest stories" segment. I had to leave the studio and let my colleagues carry on because I was laughing so much. :-)
	6:51pm Rich in Washington: That's hilarious! The newsfeed being stuck!
	6:51pm DJ GeorgyGirl: One of my colleagues said "He's still dead then, yeah?" ;-)
	6:53pm Rich in Washington: HA!
	6:54pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Mr Fab is next!! EXCITEMENT! :-) wfmu.org...
	6:55pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you all for listening - huge hugs to you all! :-)
	6:55pm Rob: thanks for the tunes!
	6:56pm Rich in Washington: Fun show! Just what the doctor ordered! Thanks, DJ GeorgyGirl!
	6:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello Rob! Thank you :-)
