	10:58am Frank In Queens: HEY NOOOOOOOWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!
	11:00am Listener Baby: With room to spare. With room to spare! Listener Baby is feeling relieved, optimistic and thankful. Enough about me. How's by everyone out there? Baby? Jupe? Everyone? What say you this amazing morning?
	11:00am Michael Shelley: FRANKIE! BABY!
	11:01am Handy Haversack: Hey hey there, Michael and all the Shelle Gamers! Glad to see you all. Hey, Frank!
	11:01am clarke: hey now.
	11:01am Shira: Gotta make the quick switch over from Sheena's Jungle Room for the Double Dip Recess-->MS transition!
	11:02am Pauly from Clifton: Good morning, Michael, Skeleton Crew, Saturday songsters!
	11:02am Michael Shelley: Shira - don't hurt yourself!
	11:04am Cooh John: #1 hits time
	11:04am Michael Shelley: what a record this is!
	11:05am Listener Baby: Hear that Mando, Baby?
	11:06am DjLorraine: Hi Cool John, Micheal and friends
	11:06am clarke: office, Frank??
	11:06am Matt Warwick: Goooooood morning Michael!
	11:07am Frank In Queens: Hi Michael, Baby, Handy, and clarkie! I'm home today. Starting next week, 3 (maybe 4) Saturdays in a row at the office.
	11:07am mauri: are you the greatest too?
	11:08am clarke: gotcha! what's on TAP?
	11:08am YETI BOB: Hi everyone. Leftover topic from last playlist (slight apologies): Fermilab director Leon Lederman called the Higgs Boson the "Goddamn particle" - he wrote a book and the publishers forced him to change it to "God Particle". I've heard that he always hated that name. (And it's not a constituent of other particles - matter is fermions. the Higgs is a boson, a force carrier, like photons)
	11:08am northguineahills: hank garland!
	11:09am Frank In Queens: Tap? A tap is bad idea in this house!
	11:09am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Shelleys & Ruth & all!
	11:10am gf2002: Hank was in a league of his own. Now those are some hot licks.
	11:10am YETI BOB: ("Goddamn" because it was so elusive and hard to find).
	11:10am Jimmy Wipper: The Treniers did a great song about Hadacol.
	11:11am clarke: OR a VERY good idea!
	11:11am clarke: wippaaaaaah!
	11:11am Michael Shelley: Hey Matty = here to take out the trash?
	11:12am Frank In Queens: Haha, sometimes it's only a thin line separating the two.
	11:12am Jimmy Wipper: Claaaaaaaaaaaarke!
	11:12am northguineahills: what Yeti Bob said.... (even as a quatum carrier, the boson is still not fully understood...) CERN still doing good work....
	11:12am Paul: Hadacol was a pretty good KC alt-country band from the late 90s
	11:13am Michael Shelley: Frank - does the man let you stream from the office?
	11:13am Handy Haversack: Yeti Bob on a Saturday! Nice!
	11:14am Frank In Queens: @Michael, the FMU site is blocked at work. However, the FMU app on my phone works just fine. And these days, "the man" is pretty scarce at the office.
	11:15am clarke: The Man is not the man any more
	11:15am northguineahills: @frank: I use my wfmu app in the car...., make driving pleasing during commuting....
	11:15am paul: Another Paul??
	11:15am northguineahills: (in FL)
	11:16am gf2002: If this is where the action is, where's Paul Revere and The Raiders?
	11:16am clarke: paul is dead. (convincing evidence on White Album).
	11:16am paul: No bad version of this song.
	11:16am northguineahills: Georgia, Ira y James!
	11:17am Frank In Queens: @northguineahills, the app is a wonderful thing!
	11:17am Biily Shears: Paul is dead. And I oughtta know.
	11:18am paul: Biily?
	11:18am Frank In Queens: This Italian celebrates Indigenous Peoples Day.
	11:19am clarke: it's'a gonna be sweeter than'a honey
	11:20am Paul Mc: Sorry Paul Changing name to protect the innocent
	11:20am clarke: atsa' boy, franco!!
	11:20am Listener Baby: Has there ever been a carbon copy song that ever became a hit? Like ever?
	11:21am paul: Ha.
	11:21am Frank In Queens: Oh, I don't know....
	11:22am spodiodi: good morning, Michael Shelley and #1 people
	11:22am Hughie Considine: Wall of Voodoo's "Ring of Fire" is pretty stellar.
	11:23am Matt Clarke: Good morning Michael and all
	11:23am gf2002: Bill Cosby, Little Ole Man, top 5 single in 1967. Carbon copy of Stevie's "Uptight"
	11:24am Listener Baby: Agree @Hughie. Great and underrated live band too. Saw them when ever I could. Strong!
	11:24am Shira: In a way, this is very Nashville... more schmaltzy strings!
	11:24am Frank In Queens: It's tastefully done, but still, pass.
	11:24am MFlynn: For what it’s worth, I love it!!!
	11:25am Frank In Queens: That's the move Michael. I've yet to have the difficult discussion with my mom, but I think the numbers will leave no alternative by late November anyway.
	11:26am Listener Baby: Stay. Put. Everybody!
	11:26am Vt Knit Girl: No thanksgiving for us this year. It’s very sad for me. We usually have 15-20 friends and family.
	11:27am Hughie Considine: Hurricane Harry's "The Last Meal" feels spiritually related to this one. Lucky you, @Listener Baby. Very underrated band indeed.
	11:27am clarke: too far in the future - we are still doin' tha rocktobah
	11:27am Handy Haversack: We never see family for Tgiving but always host friends (I refuse to deal with a meat fest, Frank). Unless it's going to be so warm that outside is doable, I guess we skip it this year.
	11:27am Squints: I pity the fool that reaches across my plate.
	11:29am Erin in TO: What Michael described is how I've gotten hooked on WFMU. I started out listening to 2 shows and it keeps creeping up from there as I hear more!
	11:29am Frank In Queens: @Handy, my mother always has plenty of vegan sides on the table for the holidays. We always did plenty of veggies in my house growing up. Christina and I take care of our entree and desert, and my mom does everything else.
	11:30am Hughie Considine: I just heard my name and it made me feel good. Rock on, Michael!
	11:31am clarke: geaux mikey geaux!!
	11:31am Handy Haversack: We're far from family. In years past we had a lot of single friends, too, and it seemed like a nice thing to host an orphans' Tgiving. I have really perfected my supercharged Brussels sprouts. But this year ... yeah. Maybe a good day to march or volunteer someplace.
	11:32am clarke: supercharged sprouts? do tell..
	11:32am Matt Clarke: I am working on Thanksgiving so no bother
	11:32am Euro fan: It's been 15 years since I last heard WFMU. I just remembered it and found the site here - looks and sounds good!
	11:33am Frank In Queens: We'd do two Thanksgivings; one at my parents' the Saturday before (my brother goes to his in-laws on the day), and then the day at either our place or at a friend's. None of that happening this year.
	11:33am Frank In Queens: And yeah, let's hear about them sprouts!
	11:33am YETI BOB: Hi Handy. I listen to WFMU all weekend but I try to stay off the computer, to give my wrists and brain a rest. But I just bought a new laptop and couldn't resist playing with it. And then people mentioned quantum physics and I couldn't resist that either.
	11:34am Dennis Diken: hey, I know this song!
	11:34am Frank In Queens: Jeez, now with all the great shows on the Rock and Soul stream, I barely have time for my own music collection anymore!
	11:34am Therese: Hello Michael! Hello everyone!
	11:34am Daniel: What you describe in terms of WFMU listening is exactly how I got hooked on your show. I started out about 15 years ago listening to just the Best Show. But my WFMU listening slowly kept expanding and now I can't imagine Saturday mornings without plenty of coffee and your show!
	11:35am mauri: where the grass is green
	11:36am Handy Haversack: clarke, I basically make a sauce of garlic teriyaki, soy sauce, Sriracha, (good) honey, rice vinegar, Thai chili paste, LOTS of crushed red pepper (we have iron palates; I use almost a tbsp. cut by two-thirds for regular spice appreciators), and corn starch. Slice the sprouts in half and either sautee in peanut oil charged with a little chili oil or bake with a little chili oil for a while, then pour in the sauce and cook a while longer. Hi, Therese! Very proud to share the tastefulest of both Koozies and coasters with you!
	11:37am Therese: Aw, shucks! Thanks, Handy!
	11:37am clarke: we have a man in Queens.
	11:38am Frank In Queens: My dad grew up walking distance from the Word's Fair. His band played in the Pavilion that year!
	11:38am Hubig Pie: Do they still have the underground bomb shelter home ?
	11:38am clarke: thanks for recipe - am down with spicy but not so much the sweet with savory
	11:38am Handy Haversack: My dad worked at the '39 World's Fair in New York!
	11:39am Matt Clarke: That sprouts recipe sounds great, Handy
	11:39am Moammar: THEM BONGOS!
	11:39am Dennis Diken: didn't see the ska event but man, the '64/'65 World's Fair was really cool!
	11:40am Frank In Queens: Handy, sounds really good! But I'm with Clarke, so I'd probably cut out the "honey" and just let the subtle sweetness come from the sriracha.
	11:40am Frank Zaatar: NOW you tell me Millie Smalls was at the World's Fair.
	11:41am tim from Champaign (now washington): What’s the Scoobie Doo cartoon running bingo sound that randomly shows up?
	11:42am Muddybrookrambler: Yes. I don’t recall the Ska Spectacular, but my mom claimed the first word I could read (I was 2) was the giant Schaeffer sign at the Schaeffer pavilion. Also recall “driving” a car at the Ford exhibit—and being asked for my license by a “cop”
	11:42am tim from Champaign (now washington): Bingo = bongo
	11:42am clarke: you think it might be..... MovieTime???
	11:42am Joe R.: There's some fun NY World's Fair footage on Amazon Prime www.amazon.com...
	11:45am clarke: LISTED as co-writer more like
	11:45am Frank In Queens: I'll let Michael dictate when it's MovieTime, but it was a great week here In Queens.
	11:46am clarke: cool!
	11:46am Greg from ZONE 5: This is fantastic—never heard any of his stuff that wasn't straight up calypso.
	11:47am Dominick: Mind blown
	11:47am Jimmy Wipper: Mighty Sparrow RULES! I was actually listening to the two cd set Sparrowmania this week.
	11:47am clarke: also, no need to add bongos
	11:48am Squints: Bongos are like cowbell. Never enough.
	11:48am paul: One bongo clip per show.
	11:50am clarke: no "movies" this week, but i DID get to (finally) see the pilot of the bbc show Endeavour - which is outstanding! incredible location shooting, good detective thang.
	11:50am paul: No A in Murry.
	11:50am KWilde: Hey Mr Wipper! Hey Michael!
	11:50am johnzo: thanksgiving's the one where you have to eat dinner with your family right... drama! anxiety! now with NEW! risk of contracting a deadly illness! sounds fun...
	11:51am Frank In Queens: Where can one find "Endeavour"?
	11:51am Hannah: We're tuning in from London, England - thanks for a great show Michael, we agree about great British baking show.
	11:51am Jimmy Wipper: Hey Mr. Wilde!
	11:51am P-90: Good ol’ Reggie Dingleberry
	11:51am Listener Baby: Love the Reg-ster!
	11:52am Frank In Queens: Good to know that Reggie Dingleberry is still hanging on.
	11:52am clarke: http://123movie.fm/watch/nGE1MzGb-endeavour.html
	11:52am Frank In Queens: Thanks Clarke!
	11:52am paul: Thanks. :)
	11:52am Listener Baby: Ha!! He's clingy that way, Frank.
	11:53am Corey: Morning Michael and listeners! Late to the listening party, but thankfully not too late.
	11:53am gdW: Murry Wilson is tied with Fred Trump for Father Of The Year dishonors.
	11:53am Hubig Pie: I always gets him mixed up with Ronnie Skidmark
	11:53am Frank In Queens: This week was a jam packed movie week; Vertigo, Psycho, The Birds, Dressed To Kill, and Blood Simple.
	11:54am Handy Haversack: We watched two more-or-less horror movies last night. The new /Invisible Man/, which was well done but does have some triggering stuff for anyone who's been in an abusive relationship. And then a thin but clever, hour-long movie called /Host/, a horror movie that is set in a Zoom seance. Topical! Also watched the I think HBO /Raised by Wolves/. It has its moments, but lots of logic problems, too. And I started in on season 2 of /The Boys/, though Kate's not interested.
	11:54am Frank In Queens: Reggie Dingleberry and Ronnie Skidmark collaborate A LOT!
	11:55am Listener Baby: Least we forget Kerry Klingon
	11:55am clarke: HITCHFEST!!!
	11:55am paul: Almost watched The Birds, but went with Pacific Heights instead (featuring Tippi H. and daughter Melanie Griffith)
	11:56am Frank In Queens: Ah, Pacific Heights. It's been years since I've seen that. Gotta add it to the list.
	11:57am clarke: while i have not Hitched in a while - always great to re-visit. and illuminating.
	11:57am Hughie Considine: A fine entry in the "creepy neighbor" genre.
	11:57am P-90: OMG it’s like a left coast ersatz Stones thing
	11:58am clarke: okay frank: pick a fave out of this week's viewing
	11:59am clarke: oh yes, keep in mind that Endeavour is a pre-quel to another brit series: Inspector Morse
	12:00pm Frank In Queens: Hmmmm, well they were all re-watches except for Dressed To Kill. Tough to pick just one fave. I'll have to go with Psycho and Blood Simple.
	12:00pm paul: @Frank, it still holds up. Keaton is great.
	12:00pm Sean: Frank in Queens, wondering where you saw Blood Simple.
	12:00pm Frank In Queens: @Sean, I have the Criterion Blu-Ray.
	12:01pm Frank In Queens: @paul, good to know. I've enjoyed most of what Keaton has done.
	12:01pm clarke: my fave out of that group is EAAAASILY: Vertigo gosh dang - hitch's best in my book.
	12:02pm phat: Hot damn this TEF cooks.
	12:02pm Frank In Queens: I love the look and style of Vertigo, but the story falls a bit short for me.
	12:02pm Dominick: Blackwing pencils are my fave.
	12:02pm gf2002: Jimmy Bryant and Speedy West! Lots of hot guitar this morning on WFMU
	12:02pm clarke: although i love Rear Window just as much. Tie goes to the runner (which is never true any more)
	12:03pm paul: Nick Lowe said TEF was a huge influence on his songwriting.
	12:03pm Frank In Queens: Yes, out of the 4 Hitch movies we've watched recently, Rear Window is hands-down my fave.
	12:03pm Sean: @Frank, no wonder I couldn't find it for free this week ... It was at YOUR house. also I only just realized you were talking about Michael and not Buster. Check out "Sherlock Jr." for a cinematic masterpiece.
	12:04pm Handy Haversack: Pentel Penctec 0.5 mm mechanical pencils for me. All the way.
	12:04pm clarke: cornell woolrich novel
	12:04pm Frank In Queens: @Sean, I've never seen anything with Buster Keaton. I admittedly have a bit of trouble with silent films.
	12:05pm Frank In Queens: Willing to keep at it though.
	12:05pm clarke: The General is a good start point slash gateway drug
	12:05pm paul: Buster was actually an incredible athlete.
	12:06pm Listener Baby: Baby. What is this? When What?
	12:06pm Hughie Considine: So many of his stunts could have ended in disaster.
	12:07pm johnk77: nice work selecter @michael mighty sparrow a great entertainer always delivered the goods live backed by charlies roots
	12:07pm phat: NRBQ are the kings of the clever modulation.
	12:07pm Listener Baby: This is #1
	12:07pm clarke: that railroad tie scene alone...
	12:07pm Montmaster J: Nice Q! is that Big Al?
	12:08pm clarke: unMISTAKEably big al
	12:09pm clarke: from HitchFest to AlFest -- there is a thread (or was)
	12:09pm dano59: Holy cow an Abner Jay chestnut!
	12:10pm clarke: Al ain't so big any more
	12:12pm Ross T.: Big Al hit by lightning -- metaphor of the day.
	12:13pm Listener Baby: James Bond half steps.
	12:13pm Handy Haversack: Double-barreled love!
	12:14pm Moammar: THEM BONGOS!
	12:14pm Sean: @Frank, gotta have few distractions and then give it a shot. Sherlock Jr. is definitely my fave because it uses the medium of Cinema itself on a way that is decades before it's time. "The General" also a classic as are "Three Ages" and the shorter ones like "One Week" and "The Electric House" which is making fun of "smart houses" a century ago. https://youtu.be/5Q0FMxZBmO4
	12:14pm Squints: Moarrrrrr bongos.
	12:14pm phat: I kind of am freaking out. Love the show.
	12:14pm KWilde: I knew those Flintstone feet were coming!
	12:14pm Moammar: This cut puts me in mind of the Geezinslaws.
	12:15pm Frank In Queens: Thanks Sean. I'll make a note of those titles.
	12:15pm Squints: God's honest truth, the first time I ever saw the pogo was on the Mr Goober morning kids show in New Haven in the late 60s/early 70s, where he'd lead the kids in the studio pogoing to Roger Miller's "Chug-A-Lug."
	12:16pm Listener Baby: Jupe! Get on the mic.
	12:17pm Frank In Queens: It's not "way" out there!
	12:18pm clarke: our man in queens comes thru
	12:18pm clarke: and woman!
	12:19pm Hughie Considine: Deeply Cooke-y
	12:19pm Aric: The city of Houston Texas and Houston Street in nyc are named after 2 separate individuals who pronounced their names differently.
	12:19pm jmd: hearing that Ramones earlier kinda makes me wanna go on a Ramones jag today. Thanks Michael.
	12:19pm P-90: Adjective of the Week: Sam Cooke-y
	12:19pm clarke: cooke-y monster
	12:20pm Hughie Considine: A British podcaster I dig nevertheless pronounced the Texas city "Hoo-ston."
	12:20pm Aric: Another fun fact, Teddy Roosevelt and Franklin Roosevelt also pronounced their last names differently.
	12:22pm phat: I'm through with love too, Dinah.
	12:22pm Sean: @Aric another good reason for them to not get together on Thanksgiving. I can just hear the bickerinh now!
	12:22pm Squints: Isn't "Hooston" how General Zod pronounced it in 1978?
	12:22pm P-90: Actually that was “Über-Sam-Cooke-y”
	12:25pm Sean: Hey, I got an uncle lives in Texas.
	12:26pm Hughie Considine: @Squints, that sounds right. Possibly that influenced this very learned man's pronunciation.
	12:28pm Dennis https://youtu.be/Sn8V0SjSQhMSparky....thi: Donations made.....Because all other Radio sucks!! Nosey retail stores? When stores ask my zip code, I instantly tell them; 60609. All the zip codes where I live start with 0, but when we were kids, and watched the Price is Right during the summer, “Johnny” was always talking about prizes from the “Spiegel Catalog; Chicago, Illinois, 60609.” Extra points if you use the “Johnny voice” when you give the zip code.
	12:28pm dmart New Mexico: When my husband and I were dating 20 years ago, I had a jazz classics cd that had Dinah Washington singing “Pennies from Heaven.” Listening to to the show together this morning in New Mexico. Thanks Michael!
	12:28pm clarke: then - GAIN STRUCTURE!!
	12:28pm Ross T.: "Get the Unit Functioning" -- great James Brown track.
	12:29pm Handy Haversack: I was shaving, and that Dahlamanns song was dangerously danceable! Could become a hit with the rekkid-buying public.
	12:29pm Jimmy Wipper: The Unit-ed States is not functioning. We have to get the unit functioning.
	12:30pm Moammar: THEM BONGOS!
	12:31pm Mister Dobalina: Let my junk become your junk!
	12:31pm Ross T.: Juniper just told my story.
	12:31pm Frank In Queens: Chemistry was a PITA for me too.
	12:33pm clarke: LOVE jupe's playing!!!
	12:33pm phat: I had real difficulty with chemistry, too. But I was a horrible student in general.
	12:34pm clarke: wouldn't give it ONE lesson (but i guess that's already happened)
	12:36pm Handy Haversack: I liked chem. I just didn't want to take chem 2.
	12:36pm Frank In Queens: I love science. But the problem is, I don't like math.
	12:39pm Hoboken Jack: Hello Michael and Juniper! Leo and I are listening outside Benny Tudino's in Hoboken!
	12:39pm Montmaster J: Ruh Roh!!!!
	12:40pm Michael Shelley: LOL
	12:40pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack! Happy Saturday! Michael, it's not because Jack showed up, but I have to take off -- the dog and I need to walk each other. Thanks for a great set of tunes once again! We're number one! Be well, all! Catch up with some of you at Rex's place.
	12:40pm clarke: if your voice is kasem-esque you have it made!
	12:42pm Frank In Queens: Hi Jack! Bye Handy!
	12:43pm clarke: a Laugh-In Tie-In
	12:43pm Handy Haversack: L8r, Frank!
	12:43pm jmd: What's the relationship between the Sweet Bippies and Laugh-In? Is there one?
	12:43pm P-90: “Class Body” and “Sweet Bippy” both not things these days
	12:43pm Hughie Considine: You bet your sweet bippy was a catchphrase on Laugh-In.
	12:44pm RobinSays: Hi Michael! You were talking about the World's Fair earlier; my Aunt Sharon was a waitress there at a restaurant called the Underground Home. Great show today. I love your conversations with your daughter. They remind me of how my late Dad and I would often talk...
	12:44pm jmd: Now that jingle is in my head. BumbleBee Tuna
	12:44pm Listener Baby: Is it a Sh*t Sandwich I'm craving?
	12:44pm Hughie Considine: Dick Martin was perhaps the phrase's most vocal exponent.
	12:44pm Montmaster J: BTW whose house are you olive loafing this Mischief Night?
	12:45pm jmd: @Hughie: right.
	12:45pm egould310: This is “literally” bubblegum. Thanks for playing that sweet sound, Michael.
	12:46pm dmart New Mexico: Juniper got us on a discussion as a Math and English college instructors about required curriculum. Sorry folks!
	12:47pm Frank Zaatar: this song was quoted by Bob Dylan in his Nobel Prize lecture.
	12:48pm Hughie Considine: Nothing Israel ... and nothing to get hung about
	12:50pm clarke: fine stuff here - hope the vines out west are as fruitful!! nex'week'ya'll
	12:50pm Frank In Queens: Bye clarke!
	12:51pm Hubig Pie: Roosters do the barnyard pimp strut
	12:52pm Moammar: Bagel Chateau in Maplewood deploys the potato chips.
	12:52pm Mister Dobalina: Carbo loading so you can go compete in the triathlon, the Shelley's signed up for.
	12:52pm clarke: may see you on todd's chat, l8r. gotta hully gully!
	12:56pm MFlynn: Michael, this Logan Ledger song is great!
	12:58pm Ross T.: Joe...Joe....
	12:58pm Frank In Queens: Oh, is it time for Three Chord Monte?
	12:59pm efd: haaaaa, I was just typing that this sounds like the same scene that the "Joe" soundclips came from!
	12:59pm clarke: "Joe" one of the most disturbing films EVER
	12:59pm ?: amazing Peter Boyle performance
	12:59pm efd: wait, is that from the movie Joe?? I never made the connection, duh!
	12:59pm radioronan: Thanks Michael..
	12:59pm Sean: I learned about "Joe" from MAD magazine.
	1:00pm Ciggy: inspiring ending
	1:46pm P-90: That line about cleaning the bifocals...

Listener comments!
	10:58am Frank In Queens: HEY NOOOOOOOWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!
	11:00am Listener Baby: With room to spare. With room to spare! Listener Baby is feeling relieved, optimistic and thankful. Enough about me. How's by everyone out there? Baby? Jupe? Everyone? What say you this amazing morning?
	11:00am Michael Shelley: FRANKIE! BABY!
	11:01am Handy Haversack: Hey hey there, Michael and all the Shelle Gamers! Glad to see you all. Hey, Frank!
	11:01am clarke: hey now.
	11:01am Shira: Gotta make the quick switch over from Sheena's Jungle Room for the Double Dip Recess-->MS transition!
	11:02am Pauly from Clifton: Good morning, Michael, Skeleton Crew, Saturday songsters!
	11:02am Michael Shelley: Shira - don't hurt yourself!
	11:04am Cooh John: #1 hits time
	11:04am Michael Shelley: what a record this is!
	11:05am Listener Baby: Hear that Mando, Baby?
	11:06am DjLorraine: Hi Cool John, Micheal and friends
	11:06am clarke: office, Frank??
	11:06am Matt Warwick: Goooooood morning Michael!
	11:07am Frank In Queens: Hi Michael, Baby, Handy, and clarkie! I'm home today. Starting next week, 3 (maybe 4) Saturdays in a row at the office.
	11:07am mauri: are you the greatest too?
	11:08am clarke: gotcha! what's on TAP?
	11:08am YETI BOB: Hi everyone. Leftover topic from last playlist (slight apologies): Fermilab director Leon Lederman called the Higgs Boson the "Goddamn particle" - he wrote a book and the publishers forced him to change it to "God Particle". I've heard that he always hated that name. (And it's not a constituent of other particles - matter is fermions. the Higgs is a boson, a force carrier, like photons)
	11:08am northguineahills: hank garland!
	11:09am Frank In Queens: Tap? A tap is bad idea in this house!
	11:09am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Shelleys & Ruth & all!
	11:10am gf2002: Hank was in a league of his own. Now those are some hot licks.
	11:10am YETI BOB: ("Goddamn" because it was so elusive and hard to find).
	11:10am Jimmy Wipper: The Treniers did a great song about Hadacol.
	11:11am clarke: OR a VERY good idea!
	11:11am clarke: wippaaaaaah!
	11:11am Michael Shelley: Hey Matty = here to take out the trash?
	11:12am Frank In Queens: Haha, sometimes it's only a thin line separating the two.
	11:12am Jimmy Wipper: Claaaaaaaaaaaarke!
	11:12am northguineahills: what Yeti Bob said.... (even as a quatum carrier, the boson is still not fully understood...) CERN still doing good work....
	11:12am Paul: Hadacol was a pretty good KC alt-country band from the late 90s
	11:13am Michael Shelley: Frank - does the man let you stream from the office?
	11:13am Handy Haversack: Yeti Bob on a Saturday! Nice!
	11:14am Frank In Queens: @Michael, the FMU site is blocked at work. However, the FMU app on my phone works just fine. And these days, "the man" is pretty scarce at the office.
	11:15am clarke: The Man is not the man any more
	11:15am northguineahills: @frank: I use my wfmu app in the car...., make driving pleasing during commuting....
	11:15am paul: Another Paul??
	11:15am northguineahills: (in FL)
	11:16am gf2002: If this is where the action is, where's Paul Revere and The Raiders?
	11:16am clarke: paul is dead. (convincing evidence on White Album).
	11:16am paul: No bad version of this song.
	11:16am northguineahills: Georgia, Ira y James!
	11:17am Frank In Queens: @northguineahills, the app is a wonderful thing!
	11:17am Biily Shears: Paul is dead. And I oughtta know.
	11:18am paul: Biily?
	11:18am Frank In Queens: This Italian celebrates Indigenous Peoples Day.
	11:19am clarke: it's'a gonna be sweeter than'a honey
	11:20am Paul Mc: Sorry Paul Changing name to protect the innocent
	11:20am clarke: atsa' boy, franco!!
	11:20am Listener Baby: Has there ever been a carbon copy song that ever became a hit? Like ever?
	11:21am paul: Ha.
	11:21am Frank In Queens: Oh, I don't know....
	11:22am spodiodi: good morning, Michael Shelley and #1 people
	11:22am Hughie Considine: Wall of Voodoo's "Ring of Fire" is pretty stellar.
	11:23am Matt Clarke: Good morning Michael and all
	11:23am gf2002: Bill Cosby, Little Ole Man, top 5 single in 1967. Carbon copy of Stevie's "Uptight"
	11:24am Listener Baby: Agree @Hughie. Great and underrated live band too. Saw them when ever I could. Strong!
	11:24am Shira: In a way, this is very Nashville... more schmaltzy strings!
	11:24am Frank In Queens: It's tastefully done, but still, pass.
	11:24am MFlynn: For what it’s worth, I love it!!!
	11:25am Frank In Queens: That's the move Michael. I've yet to have the difficult discussion with my mom, but I think the numbers will leave no alternative by late November anyway.
	11:26am Listener Baby: Stay. Put. Everybody!
	11:26am Vt Knit Girl: No thanksgiving for us this year. It’s very sad for me. We usually have 15-20 friends and family.
	11:27am Hughie Considine: Hurricane Harry's "The Last Meal" feels spiritually related to this one. Lucky you, @Listener Baby. Very underrated band indeed.
	11:27am clarke: too far in the future - we are still doin' tha rocktobah
	11:27am Handy Haversack: We never see family for Tgiving but always host friends (I refuse to deal with a meat fest, Frank). Unless it's going to be so warm that outside is doable, I guess we skip it this year.
	11:27am Squints: I pity the fool that reaches across my plate.
	11:29am Erin in TO: What Michael described is how I've gotten hooked on WFMU. I started out listening to 2 shows and it keeps creeping up from there as I hear more!
	11:29am Frank In Queens: @Handy, my mother always has plenty of vegan sides on the table for the holidays. We always did plenty of veggies in my house growing up. Christina and I take care of our entree and desert, and my mom does everything else.
	11:30am Hughie Considine: I just heard my name and it made me feel good. Rock on, Michael!
	11:31am clarke: geaux mikey geaux!!
	11:31am Handy Haversack: We're far from family. In years past we had a lot of single friends, too, and it seemed like a nice thing to host an orphans' Tgiving. I have really perfected my supercharged Brussels sprouts. But this year ... yeah. Maybe a good day to march or volunteer someplace.
	11:32am clarke: supercharged sprouts? do tell..
	11:32am Matt Clarke: I am working on Thanksgiving so no bother
	11:32am Euro fan: It's been 15 years since I last heard WFMU. I just remembered it and found the site here - looks and sounds good!
	11:33am Frank In Queens: We'd do two Thanksgivings; one at my parents' the Saturday before (my brother goes to his in-laws on the day), and then the day at either our place or at a friend's. None of that happening this year.
	11:33am Frank In Queens: And yeah, let's hear about them sprouts!
	11:33am YETI BOB: Hi Handy. I listen to WFMU all weekend but I try to stay off the computer, to give my wrists and brain a rest. But I just bought a new laptop and couldn't resist playing with it. And then people mentioned quantum physics and I couldn't resist that either.
	11:34am Dennis Diken: hey, I know this song!
	11:34am Frank In Queens: Jeez, now with all the great shows on the Rock and Soul stream, I barely have time for my own music collection anymore!
	11:34am Therese: Hello Michael! Hello everyone!
	11:34am Daniel: What you describe in terms of WFMU listening is exactly how I got hooked on your show. I started out about 15 years ago listening to just the Best Show. But my WFMU listening slowly kept expanding and now I can't imagine Saturday mornings without plenty of coffee and your show!
	11:35am mauri: where the grass is green
	11:36am Handy Haversack: clarke, I basically make a sauce of garlic teriyaki, soy sauce, Sriracha, (good) honey, rice vinegar, Thai chili paste, LOTS of crushed red pepper (we have iron palates; I use almost a tbsp. cut by two-thirds for regular spice appreciators), and corn starch. Slice the sprouts in half and either sautee in peanut oil charged with a little chili oil or bake with a little chili oil for a while, then pour in the sauce and cook a while longer. Hi, Therese! Very proud to share the tastefulest of both Koozies and coasters with you!
	11:37am Therese: Aw, shucks! Thanks, Handy!
	11:37am clarke: we have a man in Queens.
	11:38am Frank In Queens: My dad grew up walking distance from the Word's Fair. His band played in the Pavilion that year!
	11:38am Hubig Pie: Do they still have the underground bomb shelter home ?
	11:38am clarke: thanks for recipe - am down with spicy but not so much the sweet with savory
	11:38am Handy Haversack: My dad worked at the '39 World's Fair in New York!
	11:39am Matt Clarke: That sprouts recipe sounds great, Handy
	11:39am Moammar: THEM BONGOS!
	11:39am Dennis Diken: didn't see the ska event but man, the '64/'65 World's Fair was really cool!
	11:40am Frank In Queens: Handy, sounds really good! But I'm with Clarke, so I'd probably cut out the "honey" and just let the subtle sweetness come from the sriracha.
	11:40am Frank Zaatar: NOW you tell me Millie Smalls was at the World's Fair.
	11:41am tim from Champaign (now washington): What’s the Scoobie Doo cartoon running bingo sound that randomly shows up?
	11:42am Muddybrookrambler: Yes. I don’t recall the Ska Spectacular, but my mom claimed the first word I could read (I was 2) was the giant Schaeffer sign at the Schaeffer pavilion. Also recall “driving” a car at the Ford exhibit—and being asked for my license by a “cop”
	11:42am tim from Champaign (now washington): Bingo = bongo
	11:42am clarke: you think it might be..... MovieTime???
	11:42am Joe R.: There's some fun NY World's Fair footage on Amazon Prime www.amazon.com...
	11:45am clarke: LISTED as co-writer more like
	11:45am Frank In Queens: I'll let Michael dictate when it's MovieTime, but it was a great week here In Queens.
	11:46am clarke: cool!
	11:46am Greg from ZONE 5: This is fantastic—never heard any of his stuff that wasn't straight up calypso.
	11:47am Dominick: Mind blown
	11:47am Jimmy Wipper: Mighty Sparrow RULES! I was actually listening to the two cd set Sparrowmania this week.
	11:47am clarke: also, no need to add bongos
	11:48am Squints: Bongos are like cowbell. Never enough.
	11:48am paul: One bongo clip per show.
	11:50am clarke: no "movies" this week, but i DID get to (finally) see the pilot of the bbc show Endeavour - which is outstanding! incredible location shooting, good detective thang.
	11:50am paul: No A in Murry.
	11:50am KWilde: Hey Mr Wipper! Hey Michael!
	11:50am johnzo: thanksgiving's the one where you have to eat dinner with your family right... drama! anxiety! now with NEW! risk of contracting a deadly illness! sounds fun...
	11:51am Frank In Queens: Where can one find "Endeavour"?
	11:51am Hannah: We're tuning in from London, England - thanks for a great show Michael, we agree about great British baking show.
	11:51am Jimmy Wipper: Hey Mr. Wilde!
	11:51am P-90: Good ol’ Reggie Dingleberry
	11:51am Listener Baby: Love the Reg-ster!
	11:52am Frank In Queens: Good to know that Reggie Dingleberry is still hanging on.
	11:52am clarke: http://123movie.fm/watch/nGE1MzGb-endeavour.html
	11:52am Frank In Queens: Thanks Clarke!
	11:52am paul: Thanks. :)
	11:52am Listener Baby: Ha!! He's clingy that way, Frank.
	11:53am Corey: Morning Michael and listeners! Late to the listening party, but thankfully not too late.
	11:53am gdW: Murry Wilson is tied with Fred Trump for Father Of The Year dishonors.
	11:53am Hubig Pie: I always gets him mixed up with Ronnie Skidmark
	11:53am Frank In Queens: This week was a jam packed movie week; Vertigo, Psycho, The Birds, Dressed To Kill, and Blood Simple.
	11:54am Handy Haversack: We watched two more-or-less horror movies last night. The new /Invisible Man/, which was well done but does have some triggering stuff for anyone who's been in an abusive relationship. And then a thin but clever, hour-long movie called /Host/, a horror movie that is set in a Zoom seance. Topical! Also watched the I think HBO /Raised by Wolves/. It has its moments, but lots of logic problems, too. And I started in on season 2 of /The Boys/, though Kate's not interested.
	11:54am Frank In Queens: Reggie Dingleberry and Ronnie Skidmark collaborate A LOT!
	11:55am Listener Baby: Least we forget Kerry Klingon
	11:55am clarke: HITCHFEST!!!
	11:55am paul: Almost watched The Birds, but went with Pacific Heights instead (featuring Tippi H. and daughter Melanie Griffith)
	11:56am Frank In Queens: Ah, Pacific Heights. It's been years since I've seen that. Gotta add it to the list.
	11:57am clarke: while i have not Hitched in a while - always great to re-visit. and illuminating.
	11:57am Hughie Considine: A fine entry in the "creepy neighbor" genre.
	11:57am P-90: OMG it’s like a left coast ersatz Stones thing
	11:58am clarke: okay frank: pick a fave out of this week's viewing
	11:59am clarke: oh yes, keep in mind that Endeavour is a pre-quel to another brit series: Inspector Morse
	12:00pm Frank In Queens: Hmmmm, well they were all re-watches except for Dressed To Kill. Tough to pick just one fave. I'll have to go with Psycho and Blood Simple.
	12:00pm paul: @Frank, it still holds up. Keaton is great.
	12:00pm Sean: Frank in Queens, wondering where you saw Blood Simple.
	12:00pm Frank In Queens: @Sean, I have the Criterion Blu-Ray.
	12:01pm Frank In Queens: @paul, good to know. I've enjoyed most of what Keaton has done.
	12:01pm clarke: my fave out of that group is EAAAASILY: Vertigo gosh dang - hitch's best in my book.
	12:02pm phat: Hot damn this TEF cooks.
	12:02pm Frank In Queens: I love the look and style of Vertigo, but the story falls a bit short for me.
	12:02pm Dominick: Blackwing pencils are my fave.
	12:02pm gf2002: Jimmy Bryant and Speedy West! Lots of hot guitar this morning on WFMU
	12:02pm clarke: although i love Rear Window just as much. Tie goes to the runner (which is never true any more)
	12:03pm paul: Nick Lowe said TEF was a huge influence on his songwriting.
	12:03pm Frank In Queens: Yes, out of the 4 Hitch movies we've watched recently, Rear Window is hands-down my fave.
	12:03pm Sean: @Frank, no wonder I couldn't find it for free this week ... It was at YOUR house. also I only just realized you were talking about Michael and not Buster. Check out "Sherlock Jr." for a cinematic masterpiece.
	12:04pm Handy Haversack: Pentel Penctec 0.5 mm mechanical pencils for me. All the way.
	12:04pm clarke: cornell woolrich novel
	12:04pm Frank In Queens: @Sean, I've never seen anything with Buster Keaton. I admittedly have a bit of trouble with silent films.
	12:05pm Frank In Queens: Willing to keep at it though.
	12:05pm clarke: The General is a good start point slash gateway drug
	12:05pm paul: Buster was actually an incredible athlete.
	12:06pm Listener Baby: Baby. What is this? When What?
	12:06pm Hughie Considine: So many of his stunts could have ended in disaster.
	12:07pm johnk77: nice work selecter @michael mighty sparrow a great entertainer always delivered the goods live backed by charlies roots

	12:13pm Handy Haversack: Double-barreled love!
	12:14pm Moammar: THEM BONGOS!
	12:14pm Sean: @Frank, gotta have few distractions and then give it a shot. Sherlock Jr. is definitely my fave because it uses the medium of Cinema itself on a way that is decades before it's time. "The General" also a classic as are "Three Ages" and the shorter ones like "One Week" and "The Electric House" which is making fun of "smart houses" a century ago. https://youtu.be/5Q0FMxZBmO4
	12:14pm Squints: Moarrrrrr bongos.
	12:14pm phat: I kind of am freaking out. Love the show.

	12:15pm Frank In Queens: Thanks Sean. I'll make a note of those titles.
	12:15pm Squints: God's honest truth, the first time I ever saw the pogo was on the Mr Goober morning kids show in New Haven in the late 60s/early 70s, where he'd lead the kids in the studio pogoing to Roger Miller's "Chug-A-Lug."
	12:16pm Listener Baby: Jupe! Get on the mic.
	12:17pm Frank In Queens: It's not "way" out there!
	12:18pm clarke: our man in queens comes thru
	12:18pm clarke: and woman!
	12:19pm Hughie Considine: Deeply Cooke-y
	12:19pm Aric: The city of Houston Texas and Houston Street in nyc are named after 2 separate individuals who pronounced their names differently.

	12:22pm Sean: @Aric another good reason for them to not get together on Thanksgiving. I can just hear the bickerinh now!
	12:22pm Squints: Isn't "Hooston" how General Zod pronounced it in 1978?
	12:22pm P-90: Actually that was “Über-Sam-Cooke-y”
	12:25pm Sean: Hey, I got an uncle lives in Texas.
	12:26pm Hughie Considine: @Squints, that sounds right. Possibly that influenced this very learned man's pronunciation.
	12:28pm Dennis https://youtu.be/Sn8V0SjSQhMSparky....thi: Donations made.....Because all other Radio sucks!! Nosey retail stores? When stores ask my zip code, I instantly tell them; 60609. All the zip codes where I live start with 0, but when we were kids, and watched the Price is Right during the summer, “Johnny” was always talking about prizes from the “Spiegel Catalog; Chicago, Illinois, 60609.” Extra points if you use the “Johnny voice” when you give the zip code.
	12:28pm dmart New Mexico: When my husband and I were dating 20 years ago, I had a jazz classics cd that had Dinah Washington singing “Pennies from Heaven.” Listening to to the show together this morning in New Mexico. Thanks Michael!

	12:28pm Ross T.: "Get the Unit Functioning" -- great James Brown track.

	12:34pm clarke: wouldn't give it ONE lesson (but i guess that's already happened)

	12:43pm clarke: a Laugh-In Tie-In
	12:43pm Handy Haversack: L8r, Frank!
	12:43pm jmd: What's the relationship between the Sweet Bippies and Laugh-In? Is there one?
	12:43pm P-90: “Class Body” and “Sweet Bippy” both not things these days
