	3:13pm Ike: I miss when there was no safe drinking water and so everybody had to drink mead.
	3:15pm spodiodi: i'm never up early/late enough to hear Clay's WaB morning show. also really miss his field recordings/interviews on the street too (and that Dusty show voice)
	3:15pm Chop Scott: Sounding solid Fabio!
	3:16pm brainiac: But, it must be pointed out that as long as we have Fabio on Thursdays, we are very lucky indeedy.
	3:17pm Brendan: Sounds like a worn brake pad scraping the rotor run through the How Soon Is Now mix
	3:18pm coelacanth∅: right no missing mentioned that outweighs the good fortune of having Fabio's 3-hour show each week. 3 FULL hours of Fabio each week (!)
	3:18pm spodiodi: hah Brendan (and it sounds perfect, eh?)
	3:19pm brainiac: Wait, it IS Thursday today, right?
	3:19pm Brendan: @spodiodi, indeed
	3:19pm spodiodi: pretty sweet, coel
	3:21pm David in London: Party time in ordinarily sized person’s land. Evening Fabio. Hello you cast of groovemongeous souls: Handy, Mariano, brainiac, Rev, TDK, spodiodi et al.
	3:22pm Marcel M: Yo Fabio
	3:22pm brainiac: David, I don't mean to embarrass you, but you've forgotten your parens again.
	3:22pm wfmu listener phillip: Fabio takes a schedule off I'll jump off a bridge.
	3:22pm coelacanth∅: David i'd be willing to bet you'd be of extraordinary size to a pygmy marmoset
	3:23pm wfmu listener phillip: I NEED my fabio every Thursday 3-6
	3:24pm Handy Haversack: He's owning his in-London-ness, brainiac. No more hiding behind orthography!
	3:25pm David in London: Brainiac. Ha ha! Oh, yes, it’s a long and tedious story, but I found myself with a non-unique listener name. The workaround is that when I listen signed in via the website, I come with parentheses. However, when listening via the app, I am unclothed.
	3:25pm brainiac: Just layin' out there for all to see. Right on.
	3:26pm wfmu listener phillip: really missing IRWIN. KEN and Irwin & SSD and Evan "funk" Davies really made wednesday rock.
	3:26pm David in London: Coela, funnily enough there’s one in the living room. I asked it and, yes, you’re right. It thinks I’m pretty tall.
	3:27pm TDK60: Anyone heard about that Saharan dust storm hitting Mexico and the US South?
	3:28pm spodiodi: hear ya phillip
	3:29pm wfmu listener phillip: anyone hear 7 sec delay yesterday. andy should have helped out that homeless girl!
	👻 3:30pm chresti: TDK60, no, only about microplastics in the air.
	3:30pm coelacanth∅: David (iL, @3.25) i think it's legal on your own property
	3:31pm khd: @tdk60 yeah, the shots of it from space are pretty wild
	3:31pm TDK60: I'd never heard of such Chresti. Apparently it's much bigger than usual.
	3:32pm khd: all y'all on the east coast should be aware, increased particulates in the air that aggravate the lungs are potentially more vulnerable to the virus - hurray
	3:32pm khd: "make you more vulnerable"
	3:33pm spodiodi: i've got my scuba gear on just in case
	3:33pm TDK60: I'll wear a mask.
	3:34pm Shane Braindrain: Greetings Fabio and fellow followers of failure - it’s a lovely summer evening here in North East England, lover the Tim Hecker track.
	3:34pm David in London: These days it’s all about the kraut-sourcing... That was a genuine Jaki Leibezeit joke. Better when he did it.
	3:34pm khd: i'll wear a trout mask replica
	3:34pm coelacanth∅: i'm unhappy to be working inside today - but maybe it's for the better
	3:36pm spodiodi: too hot, plastic-y or, sahara-ish?
	3:36pm coelacanth∅: a trout mask replica might have even more room inside for herbs and such than a plague mask replica
	3:36pm spodiodi: btw coel, are you a Capricorn?
	3:36pm TDK60: Haha David in Londonhamlet.
	👻 3:37pm chresti: Gallows humor is my kind of humor.@Fabio
	3:38pm TDK60: Hi Shane in the far north. Yeah, Tim Hecker is a fave.
	3:39pm flashbazbo: Is this the day I am living in?
	3:39pm David in London: This is making me feel like I’m in a John Carpenter movie. That’s mostly a good thing. Mostly.
	3:41pm brainiac: CONFORM
	👻 3:41pm chresti: Haha coel
	3:41pm coelacanth∅: spodi, no. wasn't born in the year of the sheep either. (that's a sheep)
	👻 3:42pm mrdonutsu: Oooh, this is very Spiritualized Men 3.
	👻 3:43pm mrdonutsu: And that's a good thing!
	3:43pm spodiodi: ah, i knew that was a sheep -- forgot... d'oh Metal Pig here
	3:44pm Handy Haversack: Back in a few ...
	3:45pm David in London: Handy, come back after a few...
	3:47pm TDK60: Fabio, you said that Cologne comp is only on LP? Is it in the WFMU library? Hope to hear more unearthed German outrock.
	3:52pm Carmichael: Heya Fabio and fantabulous failures. Having just partaken of my luncheon, I shall listen smiling and sated.
	3:52pm coelacanth∅: spodi, metal rat here -by the hair on my chinny chin chin
	3:53pm Franco Twinkie: Fabio,you didn't put the crazy glue on your tooth, did you?
	3:55pm spodiodi: \m/ metal zodiac animals ftw \m/ hi Franco
	3:55pm Handy Haversack: I like the way you think, David! That pygmy marmoset has been a good influence!
	👻 3:56pm Rev. Turnip Druid: marmoset
	3:56pm Franco Twinkie: Hey Spo'
	3:56pm spodiodi: Franco, been meaning to mention, we loved watching Franco Twinkie Speaks his mind here! f'n great!
	3:58pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks! An unsuspecting shopper provided me with this weeks topic this morning.
	3:59pm spodiodi: can hardly wait :D
	👻 4:00pm chresti: I'm a fire rooster.
	4:02pm David in London: Handy, I’ve got one on each shoulder, and they speak of temperance and indulgence alternately.
	4:02pm spodiodi: flame on!
	4:03pm spodiodi: haha DiL
	4:03pm wfmu listener phillip: this pasta they gave me in the emergency covid 19 food box it's delicious! I cannot wait to eat it
	4:05pm brainiac: OK, after "Twinkie Speaks" I'm now realizing that that I've been picturing Chresti as Franco in my mind's eye all this time. Are you two brothers?
	4:07pm nic: love it!!!
	👻 4:10pm chresti: We are cohabiters, brainiac, not related.
	4:10pm Handy Haversack: Also legal in your own home, David.
	4:12pm brainiac: Thank you for the clarification, chresti. I will picture a pair of fire roosters from now on.
	4:12pm glue_horizon: Thanks for the movie recommendations Fab!
	4:13pm Hubig Pie: I love that movie. Spaghetti served with risotto with a side of mashed potatoes. The lady likes her starch
	4:13pm Switchblade Batman: I remember Big Night, that was good movie. Tony Shaloub was great in it.
	4:13pm nic: i love that film!!!
	4:14pm Franco Twinkie: I've always wanted to make that pasta drum thing that I seem to remember was the main course on the big night in question.
	4:14pm Jessie: I just DVR'd that movie. Will have to watch it this weekend.
	👻 4:15pm Mick: Allison Janney, Isabella Rossellini also in Big Night. Don't watch it if you're hungry - you'll lose your mind
	4:15pm spodiodi: when i think Franco and chresti, the cat and lizard masked photo comes to mind first
	4:15pm flashbazbo: So many great Malle flicks. I don’t know a bad one c
	4:15pm Franco Twinkie: Jesssie, make sure you eat first or you'll be pulling your hair out.
	👻 4:16pm chresti: Franco is a wood goat.
	4:16pm uuee: The Big Night...my friend's photo studio was used for the exterior shots, Main St., Keyport NJ. The interior shots were at a sound stage in Brooklyn. Took a month to create the exterior facade.
	4:17pm David in London: I love the hearty German couple in the Merc in Ascenseur Pour L'échafaud. And that track Generique on the soundtrack is five minutes that fell directly from Heaven.
	4:18pm βrian: Re Big Night, my spouse and I still make use of that particular phrase to convey that one's cooking is beyond excellent: "I should kill you!"
	4:20pm Chris from DC: This Jelinek thing is just perfect right now.
	👻 4:21pm chresti: But, yes, lizard is Franco's spirit animal @spodi
	4:21pm spodiodi: βrian, that's great :D
	4:29pm spodiodi: very cool, chresti
	4:30pm spodiodi: my spirit animal is Lux Interior
	👻 4:32pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ORSI/COSI wheeeeeeeeeee.......
	👻 4:32pm chresti: Our friends who made the masks, figured that out. haha Lux Interior, spodi.
	4:35pm Chris from DC: Ok, yeah, this Orsi/Cosi is the goods.
	4:39pm spodiodi: supercool masks, chresti. what good friends
	4:39pm Franco Twinkie: Spo,' one of my favorite memories at a Cramps show is when someone threw a high heel shoe at Lux, and with perfect comic timing he picked it up, pored a beer into it, and with much flourish tipped it back and drank it, then threw it back into the audience!
	👻 4:40pm Rev. Turnip Druid: That track coulda gone for about five hours.
	4:41pm Kat in Chicago: Lovely show today.
	4:41pm spodiodi: Franco, that's sweet! trying to imagine :D thanks for sharing the story/memories (i love hearing about all your show memories, btw!)
	4:42pm spodiodi: mine are all blury :-B
	👻 4:44pm chresti: Same here, spodi.
	4:46pm Bootsie: Johnny Guitar is the BEST!!
	4:47pm sufferwords: Saw In A Lonely Place for the first time- Bogart’s best and the always amazing Gloria Grahame... so great
	4:48pm Bootsie: It's on Prime, too. Probably my fave Sterling Hayden flick. www.amazon.com...
	4:50pm nick: Yeah but the soundtrack on Venus in furs is great!
	4:51pm sufferwords: if you haven’t already The Warped Ones on TCM on demad
	4:52pm WM: Fabio: I think the Bob Dylan song "The Mighty Quinn" refers to the Nicholas Ray movie Savage Innocence that stared Anthony Quinn as an eskimo.
	4:52pm mariano: Oh there were some doozies from Europe in the 70s. When I was a kid in Honduras, apparently nobody had any sense of appropriateness, so they'd play trailers for the latest Emmanuelle/Venus in Furs-type movie, full-on nudity, right before family movies, theaters full of parents and their kids. Was kind of glorious actually.
	4:53pm flashbazbo: I quite enjoyed “the libidinal rumplestiltskin”.
	4:54pm wfmu listener phillip: I like it when fabio plays the numbers stations from the CONET Project
	4:56pm wfmu listener phillip: will anyone figure out the lady repeating numbers 3 9 7 5 5. or the lady saying. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot over and over
	5:02pm mariano: Something so soothing about radio noise. Plus isn't at least part of it literally the sound of the Big Bang, ie cosmic background radiation?
	👻 5:03pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ooh. this.
	5:05pm mrzero: Amazing show. As usually. I live for Thursday.
	5:05pm dale: ola fabio and fabinistas. i was outside on a ladder and was yelling at the radio 'klingons say it's a good day to die!!' was that solved already?
	5:06pm dale: there's a cuban numbers lady on shortwave. break out your hallicrafter's.
	5:07pm mrzero: what frequency?
	5:07pm mrzero: Irony aside, I do love shortwave. Most of it's gone now though.
	5:07pm dale: don't know off hand. been about 6 months since i've tuned around....
	5:10pm dale: google it and people post she's on 11435 and 11530 just for a couple. i heard er a few times and it was always during the day/afternoon.
	5:11pm David in London: I like that numbers station which kicks off with The Lincolnshire Poacher. That has a good steady beat for decoding.
	5:14pm wfmu listener phillip: I like the lady speaking NATO alphabet YANKEE HOREL FOXTROT. Then GROUP ONE...GROUP ONE
	👻 5:14pm Rev. Turnip Druid: and this.
	5:16pm spodiodi: hi Dale, klingons, lakota sioux and a few others ;) i nearly mentioned those two but kept my fingers at bay until you mentioned :"
	5:16pm wfmu listener phillip: I have a shortwave radio. but I dont think I'll get much reception here in the bronx
	👻 5:16pm chresti: This Sleepy Time Jazz is nice.
	5:18pm egould310: Repetitive sound collages sound so much more sophisticated “on Fronch”.
	5:18pm TDK60: It's a tad eerie, Chresti.
	5:19pm mrzero: wait until late at night and try putting up an external antenna. I used to do fine in downtown Brooklyn. But that was a while ago. Depends on your radio too I had a Grundig Satellite 700.
	5:20pm David in London: I’m sitting in the living room with the lights off and the streetlights making film noir style wall shadows. This track is really setting the mood.
	👻 5:21pm KenW: Hey Brother, tuning in late, but I'm here, this is TREMENDOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	5:22pm dale: philip - throw a long wire up and turn off all your led lights and pull all the wall warts and take a spin.,
	👻 5:22pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Definitely late hours with the shortwave, external (wire) antenna that can be hung out a window or sumthin. If the radio is fancy enough to have SSB (single sideband) settings, even better.
	5:23pm dale: mrzero - i have a satellit 700 too! and a bunch more.
	5:23pm dale: the best time to listen to shortwave is during a power outage when the grid is quiet.
	5:23pm mariano: David: The Lincolnshire Poacher, now there's a haunting little major-key melody. One of the things the stations were thought to be sending were numbers for so-called one-time pads, a theoretically unbreakable cypher (ie you need the key to decipher it, otherwise impossible).
	5:24pm mrzero: Is your 700 still working?
	5:25pm Scott Williams: FABIO! I miss you, man - good to be hearing you live today.
	5:25pm Sam: Is this like an aural hunting kind of exposition?
	5:26pm chocolate monk: 'Above Tongues' is by Ross Scott-Buccleuch, Sigtryggur Berg Sigmarsson & Andrew Sharpley cheers for playng some Monk gunk, man
	5:28pm Ike: I dig it, man. I dig it in spades. Go Fabio go!
	5:29pm mrzero: dale: any recommendations on the current offerings in shortwave receivers?
	5:30pm mrzero: dale: any recommendations on who can repair a Satellite 700? Some idiot fucked mine up while "repairing" it.
	👻 5:30pm KenW: WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOOWW!!!!
	5:31pm mrzero: hey Fabio! thanks for being here!
	5:31pm egould310: Sounds good on this end, Fabio!
	5:33pm dale: i have a tecsun pl-365 that is almost pocket sized and it's a great travel/walk around radio.
	5:33pm dale: any of the tecsuns are great. depends on how much you want to spend.
	5:35pm mrzero: dale: thanks. I will check out the tecsuns. I saw one on-line that looked a lot like the old 700. I want to spend under $500, but it seems you can get one for a lot cheaper these days.
	👻 5:35pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @dale, my Tecsun sibling. Model PL-880 here. It's adorable. Came with a brown fake-leather case, so it looks like a bible. Weird.
	5:35pm common: fabio! hello everyone
	5:36pm dale: oh yeah, $150 will buy you a great radio.
	👻 5:37pm Rev. Turnip Druid: I took mine to Denmark & recorded tons of material. [cue mournful sigh re: the thought of air travel]
	5:38pm dale: the 880 is a great radio. as i have a satellit 700 i never went that far up the food chain. i have a satellit 800 too. and two 800s new in sealed boxes i planned on selling (estate sale buys) but haven't gotten around to it...
	5:40pm mariano: Oh sorry David, missed your greeting above, as usual I'm in the midst of a dozen different things.
	5:40pm dale: i forgot the website but you can control and listen to a software defined radio in the netherlands - a lot of long wave radio too.
	5:41pm dale: websdr.ewi.utwente.nl
	5:41pm mariano: dale: This is the one, and it's soooo addictive. websdr.ewi.utwente.nl
	5:41pm mariano: Hah, jinx dale!
	5:41pm spodiodi: dale, i was going to ask if you could recommend such a place (i've noticed a couple in the past, but can't recall where.) Thanks for the link!
	5:41pm David in London: Mariano, s’OK man. It’s easy to lose things when you’re ducking in and out.
	5:41pm mrzero: dale & Rev. Turnip Druid: thanks. I will check that one out too. I will look into the Satellite 800. Whoa. I will look for that radio in the netherlands. Not a lot of long wave in the ussa as far as I know. It was pretty big in Russia. and elsewhere
	5:41pm dale: yup! i read that as dan fogelberg fabs!
	5:43pm mrzero: Mariano: Thanks. It appears the new url is: http://websdr.org/
	5:44pm dale: when you pull that page up you see a spectrum, called a 'waterfall.' where the white lines are that's where a radio transmission is and you can drag the yellow pointy thing to that area and listen.
	5:46pm dale: some of the devotional singing from the arab emirates is hypnotic.
	5:46pm mrzero: Mariano: That site is amazing
	5:47pm mrzero: Thanks for that link dale
	5:47pm TDK60: Mariano, you showed us that site in Netherlands before; gotta give it a look.
	5:48pm Shane Braindrain: Another magical show tonight Fabio. Thank you and see you next week.
	5:48pm TDK60: ..and dale..
	5:51pm dale: love spreading the gospel of shortwave tdk!
	5:52pm TDK60: ..used to have one.
	5:52pm Andrew_in_WI: BF/BS is Jeffrey Alexander of Dire Wolves... good stuff
	5:52pm Handy Haversack: It's like Mariano is saying what is in my mind! A million things. But have been listening. This is good sounds for what my brain is leaking out as right now. Thanks, Fabio, Skeletons!
	👻 5:53pm chresti: Thanks for the links dale and mariano.
	5:54pm mrzero: dale: thanks for encouraging me nerd out on shortwave. luv it.
	👻 5:55pm chresti: Thank you for the music program, Fabio!
	5:55pm mrzero: And thanks to Fabio for attracting these listeners…
	5:56pm TDK60: Good night DJ Fabio of another borough.
	5:56pm dale: where are you mrzero?
	5:56pm nic: love this!!!
	5:57pm spodiodi: thanks, Fabio! byebye all
	5:57pm spodiodi: ooh GBV. unexpected but welcome. nice
	5:57pm coelacanth∅: Splendid program Fabio Thanks!
	5:57pm Miss G: Was on the phone to Bushwick, oddly, talking about shortwave. Watched "Kiss Me Deadly" the other night, thought, "ah, it's the glowy thing with that cute girl [Gaby Rodgers!]" Tonight, "Bamboozled." Will enjoy to listen to later, thanks to all!
	5:59pm David in London: Thanks Fabio. See you tomorrow groovers.
	👻 5:59pm chresti: See ya all later, soon.
	5:59pm Zetti: Thank you.
	6:00pm dale: get out of here? YOU'RE HOME!
	6:00pm mariano: Thank you Fab and crew!
	👻 6:00pm Rev. Turnip Druid: hooray everything
	6:00pm mrzero: Miss G: Kiss Me Deadly is one of my favorite movies of all time. Can't beat the heavy who appears as wingtips for 3/4 of the film.
	6:01pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Scott and skelicrew

	3:01pm wfmu listener phillip: FABIO!!!
	3:02pm Handy Haversack: Afternoon, Fabio, Failsafes. Party time in Giant Land. I'm almost with you!
	3:02pm spodiodi: hi Fabio! hi all
	👻 3:03pm mrdonutsu: Multi-channel broadcast magic!
	3:04pm ?: Did anyone else just have weird audio issues early on in the song or is that on my end?
	3:04pm Jim the Poet: Take me in your hand, Mr. Giant Man
	👻 3:04pm chresti: Hi Fabio and strong ones!
	👻 3:05pm Ken From Hyde Park: I will come along, yes.
	3:05pm WoodsOfNH: I had the audio issues for a bit...seemed to be flipping in and out of mono. Sounds fine now.
	3:06pm wfmu listener phillip: I still miss IRWIN! whose with me in missing IRWIN on wednesday afternoons!
	3:06pm khd: hi allz
	3:07pm nick: I miss when Irwin played joe Frank.
	3:07pm TDK60: Hi Fabio. Just back from the outside, out there, beyond.
	3:08pm wfmu listener phillip: I missed that too!@nick I loved hearing the hoe FRANK episodes on IRWINS show
	3:09pm wfmu listener phillip: highlight of irwins show was the JOE FRANK episode
	👻 3:11pm Rev. Turnip Druid: tremolo can you go
	👻 3:11pm Rev. Turnip Druid: also: hello
	3:11pm mariano: Hello Fabio and crew, fellow failure addicts. Know what I miss? Fabio and Clay's banter at the end of Fab's show when Clay's show was right after.
	3:12pm Itzall Hear: Hi Fabio, Thanks for doing this for us, all best in safety and health!
	3:12pm spodiodi: ^ me too mariano!
	3:13pm coelacanth∅: greetings Fabio and Failure Army
	3:13pm wfmu listener phillip: when they pair Fabio with Clay Pigeon in the marathon episode it is MUST HEAR radio an instant classic
	3:13pm duke: Hello Failures It's not really Wednesday afternoon without Irwin
	3:13pm brainiac: @mariano: Yep, me too. Those two have chemistry.
	3:13pm Ike: I miss when there was no safe drinking water and so everybody had to drink mead.
	3:15pm spodiodi: i'm never up early/late enough to hear Clay's WaB morning show. also really miss his field recordings/interviews on the street too (and that Dusty show voice)
	3:15pm Chop Scott: Sounding solid Fabio!
	3:16pm brainiac: But, it must be pointed out that as long as we have Fabio on Thursdays, we are very lucky indeedy.
	3:17pm Brendan: Sounds like a worn brake pad scraping the rotor run through the How Soon Is Now mix
	3:18pm coelacanth∅: right no missing mentioned that outweighs the good fortune of having Fabio's 3-hour show each week. 3 FULL hours of Fabio each week (!)
	3:18pm spodiodi: hah Brendan (and it sounds perfect, eh?)
	3:19pm brainiac: Wait, it IS Thursday today, right?
	3:19pm Brendan: @spodiodi, indeed
	3:19pm spodiodi: pretty sweet, coel
	3:21pm David in London: Party time in ordinarily sized person’s land. Evening Fabio. Hello you cast of groovemongeous souls: Handy, Mariano, brainiac, Rev, TDK, spodiodi et al.
	3:22pm Marcel M: Yo Fabio
	3:22pm brainiac: David, I don't mean to embarrass you, but you've forgotten your parens again.
	3:22pm wfmu listener phillip: Fabio takes a schedule off I'll jump off a bridge.
	3:22pm coelacanth∅: David i'd be willing to bet you'd be of extraordinary size to a pygmy marmoset
	3:23pm wfmu listener phillip: I NEED my fabio every Thursday 3-6
	3:24pm Handy Haversack: He's owning his in-London-ness, brainiac. No more hiding behind orthography!
	3:25pm David in London: Brainiac. Ha ha! Oh, yes, it’s a long and tedious story, but I found myself with a non-unique listener name. The workaround is that when I listen signed in via the website, I come with parentheses. However, when listening via the app, I am unclothed.
	3:25pm brainiac: Just layin' out there for all to see. Right on.
	3:26pm wfmu listener phillip: really missing IRWIN. KEN and Irwin & SSD and Evan "funk" Davies really made wednesday rock.
	3:26pm David in London: Coela, funnily enough there’s one in the living room. I asked it and, yes, you’re right. It thinks I’m pretty tall.
	3:27pm TDK60: Anyone heard about that Saharan dust storm hitting Mexico and the US South?
	3:28pm spodiodi: hear ya phillip
	3:29pm wfmu listener phillip: anyone hear 7 sec delay yesterday. andy should have helped out that homeless girl!
	👻 3:30pm chresti: TDK60, no, only about microplastics in the air.
	3:30pm coelacanth∅: David (iL, @3.25) i think it's legal on your own property
	3:31pm khd: @tdk60 yeah, the shots of it from space are pretty wild
	3:31pm TDK60: I'd never heard of such Chresti. Apparently it's much bigger than usual.
	3:32pm khd: all y'all on the east coast should be aware, increased particulates in the air that aggravate the lungs are potentially more vulnerable to the virus - hurray
	3:32pm khd: "make you more vulnerable"
	3:33pm spodiodi: i've got my scuba gear on just in case
	3:33pm TDK60: I'll wear a mask.
	3:34pm Shane Braindrain: Greetings Fabio and fellow followers of failure - it’s a lovely summer evening here in North East England, lover the Tim Hecker track.
	3:34pm David in London: These days it’s all about the kraut-sourcing... That was a genuine Jaki Leibezeit joke. Better when he did it.
	3:34pm khd: i'll wear a trout mask replica
	3:34pm coelacanth∅: i'm unhappy to be working inside today - but maybe it's for the better
	3:36pm spodiodi: too hot, plastic-y or, sahara-ish?
	3:36pm coelacanth∅: a trout mask replica might have even more room inside for herbs and such than a plague mask replica
	3:36pm spodiodi: btw coel, are you a Capricorn?
	3:36pm TDK60: Haha David in Londonhamlet.
	👻 3:37pm chresti: Gallows humor is my kind of humor.@Fabio
	3:38pm TDK60: Hi Shane in the far north. Yeah, Tim Hecker is a fave.
	3:39pm flashbazbo: Is this the day I am living in?
	3:39pm David in London: This is making me feel like I’m in a John Carpenter movie. That’s mostly a good thing. Mostly.
	3:41pm brainiac: CONFORM
	👻 3:41pm chresti: Haha coel
	3:41pm coelacanth∅: spodi, no. wasn't born in the year of the sheep either. (that's a sheep)
	👻 3:42pm mrdonutsu: Oooh, this is very Spiritualized Men 3.
	👻 3:43pm mrdonutsu: And that's a good thing!
	3:43pm spodiodi: ah, i knew that was a sheep -- forgot... d'oh Metal Pig here
	3:44pm Handy Haversack: Back in a few ...
	3:45pm David in London: Handy, come back after a few...
	3:47pm TDK60: Fabio, you said that Cologne comp is only on LP? Is it in the WFMU library? Hope to hear more unearthed German outrock.
	3:52pm Carmichael: Heya Fabio and fantabulous failures. Having just partaken of my luncheon, I shall listen smiling and sated.
	3:52pm coelacanth∅: spodi, metal rat here -by the hair on my chinny chin chin
	3:53pm Franco Twinkie: Fabio,you didn't put the crazy glue on your tooth, did you?
	3:55pm spodiodi: \m/ metal zodiac animals ftw \m/ hi Franco
	3:55pm Handy Haversack: I like the way you think, David! That pygmy marmoset has been a good influence!
	👻 3:56pm Rev. Turnip Druid: marmoset
	3:56pm Franco Twinkie: Hey Spo'
	3:56pm spodiodi: Franco, been meaning to mention, we loved watching Franco Twinkie Speaks his mind here! f'n great!
	3:58pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks! An unsuspecting shopper provided me with this weeks topic this morning.
	3:59pm spodiodi: can hardly wait :D
	👻 4:00pm chresti: I'm a fire rooster.
	4:02pm David in London: Handy, I’ve got one on each shoulder, and they speak of temperance and indulgence alternately.
	4:02pm spodiodi: flame on!
	4:03pm spodiodi: haha DiL
	4:03pm wfmu listener phillip: this pasta they gave me in the emergency covid 19 food box it's delicious! I cannot wait to eat it
	4:05pm brainiac: OK, after "Twinkie Speaks" I'm now realizing that that I've been picturing Chresti as Franco in my mind's eye all this time. Are you two brothers?
	4:07pm nic: love it!!!
	👻 4:10pm chresti: We are cohabiters, brainiac, not related.
	4:10pm Handy Haversack: Also legal in your own home, David.
	4:12pm brainiac: Thank you for the clarification, chresti. I will picture a pair of fire roosters from now on.
	4:12pm glue_horizon: Thanks for the movie recommendations Fab!
	4:13pm Hubig Pie: I love that movie. Spaghetti served with risotto with a side of mashed potatoes. The lady likes her starch
	4:13pm Switchblade Batman: I remember Big Night, that was good movie. Tony Shaloub was great in it.
	4:13pm nic: i love that film!!!
	4:14pm Franco Twinkie: I've always wanted to make that pasta drum thing that I seem to remember was the main course on the big night in question.
	4:14pm Jessie: I just DVR'd that movie. Will have to watch it this weekend.
	👻 4:15pm Mick: Allison Janney, Isabella Rossellini also in Big Night. Don't watch it if you're hungry - you'll lose your mind
	4:15pm spodiodi: when i think Franco and chresti, the cat and lizard masked photo comes to mind first
	4:15pm flashbazbo: So many great Malle flicks. I don’t know a bad one c
	4:15pm Franco Twinkie: Jesssie, make sure you eat first or you'll be pulling your hair out.
	👻 4:16pm chresti: Franco is a wood goat.
	4:16pm uuee: The Big Night...my friend's photo studio was used for the exterior shots, Main St., Keyport NJ. The interior shots were at a sound stage in Brooklyn. Took a month to create the exterior facade.
	4:17pm David in London: I love the hearty German couple in the Merc in Ascenseur Pour L'échafaud. And that track Generique on the soundtrack is five minutes that fell directly from Heaven.
	4:18pm βrian: Re Big Night, my spouse and I still make use of that particular phrase to convey that one's cooking is beyond excellent: "I should kill you!"
	4:20pm Chris from DC: This Jelinek thing is just perfect right now.
	👻 4:21pm chresti: But, yes, lizard is Franco's spirit animal @spodi
	4:21pm spodiodi: βrian, that's great :D
	4:29pm spodiodi: very cool, chresti
	4:30pm spodiodi: my spirit animal is Lux Interior
	👻 4:32pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ORSI/COSI wheeeeeeeeeee.......
	👻 4:32pm chresti: Our friends who made the masks, figured that out. haha Lux Interior, spodi.
	4:35pm Chris from DC: Ok, yeah, this Orsi/Cosi is the goods.
	4:39pm spodiodi: supercool masks, chresti. what good friends
	4:39pm Franco Twinkie: Spo,' one of my favorite memories at a Cramps show is when someone threw a high heel shoe at Lux, and with perfect comic timing he picked it up, pored a beer into it, and with much flourish tipped it back and drank it, then threw it back into the audience!
	👻 4:40pm Rev. Turnip Druid: That track coulda gone for about five hours.
	4:41pm Kat in Chicago: Lovely show today.
	4:41pm spodiodi: Franco, that's sweet! trying to imagine :D thanks for sharing the story/memories (i love hearing about all your show memories, btw!)
	4:42pm spodiodi: mine are all blury :-B
	👻 4:44pm chresti: Same here, spodi.
	4:46pm Bootsie: Johnny Guitar is the BEST!!
	4:47pm sufferwords: Saw In A Lonely Place for the first time- Bogart’s best and the always amazing Gloria Grahame... so great
	4:48pm Bootsie: It's on Prime, too. Probably my fave Sterling Hayden flick. www.amazon.com...
	4:50pm nick: Yeah but the soundtrack on Venus in furs is great!
	4:51pm sufferwords: if you haven’t already The Warped Ones on TCM on demad
	4:52pm WM: Fabio: I think the Bob Dylan song "The Mighty Quinn" refers to the Nicholas Ray movie Savage Innocence that stared Anthony Quinn as an eskimo.
	4:52pm mariano: Oh there were some doozies from Europe in the 70s. When I was a kid in Honduras, apparently nobody had any sense of appropriateness, so they'd play trailers for the latest Emmanuelle/Venus in Furs-type movie, full-on nudity, right before family movies, theaters full of parents and their kids. Was kind of glorious actually.
	4:53pm flashbazbo: I quite enjoyed “the libidinal rumplestiltskin”.
	4:54pm wfmu listener phillip: I like it when fabio plays the numbers stations from the CONET Project
	4:56pm wfmu listener phillip: will anyone figure out the lady repeating numbers 3 9 7 5 5. or the lady saying. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot over and over
	5:02pm mariano: Something so soothing about radio noise. Plus isn't at least part of it literally the sound of the Big Bang, ie cosmic background radiation?
	👻 5:03pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ooh. this.
	5:05pm mrzero: Amazing show. As usually. I live for Thursday.
	5:05pm dale: ola fabio and fabinistas. i was outside on a ladder and was yelling at the radio 'klingons say it's a good day to die!!' was that solved already?
	5:06pm dale: there's a cuban numbers lady on shortwave. break out your hallicrafter's.
	5:07pm mrzero: what frequency?
	5:07pm mrzero: Irony aside, I do love shortwave. Most of it's gone now though.
	5:07pm dale: don't know off hand. been about 6 months since i've tuned around....
	5:10pm dale: google it and people post she's on 11435 and 11530 just for a couple. i heard er a few times and it was always during the day/afternoon.
	5:11pm David in London: I like that numbers station which kicks off with The Lincolnshire Poacher. That has a good steady beat for decoding.
	5:14pm wfmu listener phillip: I like the lady speaking NATO alphabet YANKEE HOREL FOXTROT. Then GROUP ONE...GROUP ONE
	👻 5:14pm Rev. Turnip Druid: and this.
	5:16pm spodiodi: hi Dale, klingons, lakota sioux and a few others ;) i nearly mentioned those two but kept my fingers at bay until you mentioned :"
	5:16pm wfmu listener phillip: I have a shortwave radio. but I dont think I'll get much reception here in the bronx
	👻 5:16pm chresti: This Sleepy Time Jazz is nice.
	5:18pm egould310: Repetitive sound collages sound so much more sophisticated “on Fronch”.
	5:18pm TDK60: It's a tad eerie, Chresti.
	5:19pm mrzero: wait until late at night and try putting up an external antenna. I used to do fine in downtown Brooklyn. But that was a while ago. Depends on your radio too I had a Grundig Satellite 700.
	5:20pm David in London: I’m sitting in the living room with the lights off and the streetlights making film noir style wall shadows. This track is really setting the mood.
	👻 5:21pm KenW: Hey Brother, tuning in late, but I'm here, this is TREMENDOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	5:22pm dale: philip - throw a long wire up and turn off all your led lights and pull all the wall warts and take a spin.,
	👻 5:22pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Definitely late hours with the shortwave, external (wire) antenna that can be hung out a window or sumthin. If the radio is fancy enough to have SSB (single sideband) settings, even better.
	5:23pm dale: mrzero - i have a satellit 700 too! and a bunch more.
	5:23pm dale: the best time to listen to shortwave is during a power outage when the grid is quiet.
	5:23pm mariano: David: The Lincolnshire Poacher, now there's a haunting little major-key melody. One of the things the stations were thought to be sending were numbers for so-called one-time pads, a theoretically unbreakable cypher (ie you need the key to decipher it, otherwise impossible).
	5:24pm mrzero: Is your 700 still working?
	5:25pm Scott Williams: FABIO! I miss you, man - good to be hearing you live today.
	5:25pm Sam: Is this like an aural hunting kind of exposition?
	5:26pm chocolate monk: 'Above Tongues' is by Ross Scott-Buccleuch, Sigtryggur Berg Sigmarsson & Andrew Sharpley cheers for playng some Monk gunk, man
	5:28pm Ike: I dig it, man. I dig it in spades. Go Fabio go!
	5:29pm mrzero: dale: any recommendations on the current offerings in shortwave receivers?
	5:30pm mrzero: dale: any recommendations on who can repair a Satellite 700? Some idiot fucked mine up while "repairing" it.
	👻 5:30pm KenW: WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOOWW!!!!
	5:31pm mrzero: hey Fabio! thanks for being here!
	5:31pm egould310: Sounds good on this end, Fabio!
	5:33pm dale: i have a tecsun pl-365 that is almost pocket sized and it's a great travel/walk around radio.
	5:33pm dale: any of the tecsuns are great. depends on how much you want to spend.
	5:35pm mrzero: dale: thanks. I will check out the tecsuns. I saw one on-line that looked a lot like the old 700. I want to spend under $500, but it seems you can get one for a lot cheaper these days.
	👻 5:35pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @dale, my Tecsun sibling. Model PL-880 here. It's adorable. Came with a brown fake-leather case, so it looks like a bible. Weird.
	5:35pm common: fabio! hello everyone
	5:36pm dale: oh yeah, $150 will buy you a great radio.
	👻 5:37pm Rev. Turnip Druid: I took mine to Denmark & recorded tons of material. [cue mournful sigh re: the thought of air travel]
	5:38pm dale: the 880 is a great radio. as i have a satellit 700 i never went that far up the food chain. i have a satellit 800 too. and two 800s new in sealed boxes i planned on selling (estate sale buys) but haven't gotten around to it...
	5:40pm mariano: Oh sorry David, missed your greeting above, as usual I'm in the midst of a dozen different things.
	5:40pm dale: i forgot the website but you can control and listen to a software defined radio in the netherlands - a lot of long wave radio too.
	5:41pm dale: websdr.ewi.utwente.nl
	5:41pm mariano: dale: This is the one, and it's soooo addictive. websdr.ewi.utwente.nl
	5:41pm mariano: Hah, jinx dale!
	5:41pm spodiodi: dale, i was going to ask if you could recommend such a place (i've noticed a couple in the past, but can't recall where.) Thanks for the link!
	5:41pm David in London: Mariano, s’OK man. It’s easy to lose things when you’re ducking in and out.
	5:41pm mrzero: dale & Rev. Turnip Druid: thanks. I will check that one out too. I will look into the Satellite 800. Whoa. I will look for that radio in the netherlands. Not a lot of long wave in the ussa as far as I know. It was pretty big in Russia. and elsewhere
	5:41pm dale: yup! i read that as dan fogelberg fabs!
	5:43pm mrzero: Mariano: Thanks. It appears the new url is: http://websdr.org/
	5:44pm dale: when you pull that page up you see a spectrum, called a 'waterfall.' where the white lines are that's where a radio transmission is and you can drag the yellow pointy thing to that area and listen.
	5:46pm dale: some of the devotional singing from the arab emirates is hypnotic.
	5:46pm mrzero: Mariano: That site is amazing
	5:47pm mrzero: Thanks for that link dale
	5:47pm TDK60: Mariano, you showed us that site in Netherlands before; gotta give it a look.
	5:48pm Shane Braindrain: Another magical show tonight Fabio. Thank you and see you next week.
	5:48pm TDK60: ..and dale..
	5:51pm dale: love spreading the gospel of shortwave tdk!
	5:52pm TDK60: ..used to have one.
	5:52pm Andrew_in_WI: BF/BS is Jeffrey Alexander of Dire Wolves... good stuff
	5:52pm Handy Haversack: It's like Mariano is saying what is in my mind! A million things. But have been listening. This is good sounds for what my brain is leaking out as right now. Thanks, Fabio, Skeletons!
	👻 5:53pm chresti: Thanks for the links dale and mariano.
	5:54pm mrzero: dale: thanks for encouraging me nerd out on shortwave. luv it.
	👻 5:55pm chresti: Thank you for the music program, Fabio!
	5:55pm mrzero: And thanks to Fabio for attracting these listeners…
	5:56pm TDK60: Good night DJ Fabio of another borough.
	5:56pm dale: where are you mrzero?
	5:56pm nic: love this!!!
	5:57pm spodiodi: thanks, Fabio! byebye all
	5:57pm spodiodi: ooh GBV. unexpected but welcome. nice
	5:57pm coelacanth∅: Splendid program Fabio Thanks!
	5:57pm Miss G: Was on the phone to Bushwick, oddly, talking about shortwave. Watched "Kiss Me Deadly" the other night, thought, "ah, it's the glowy thing with that cute girl [Gaby Rodgers!]" Tonight, "Bamboozled." Will enjoy to listen to later, thanks to all!
	5:59pm David in London: Thanks Fabio. See you tomorrow groovers.
	👻 5:59pm chresti: See ya all later, soon.
	5:59pm Zetti: Thank you.
	6:00pm dale: get out of here? YOU'RE HOME!
	6:00pm mariano: Thank you Fab and crew!
	👻 6:00pm Rev. Turnip Druid: hooray everything
	6:00pm mrzero: Miss G: Kiss Me Deadly is one of my favorite movies of all time. Can't beat the heavy who appears as wingtips for 3/4 of the film.
	6:01pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Scott and skelicrew
