Listener comments!

1:00pm Rex:

Who wants some leftover Halloween candy? Lots of Twix and Kit-Kat...

1:01pm David in London:

Lunkhead, UK branch, reporting for duty.
And I’ll have a Twix please Rex.

1:02pm spodiodi:

i'll take some of the kitkats, please Rex!

1:02pm mariano:

Hey Rex, all! David: you know you should only accept candy from men driving vans with tinted windows. Same goes for you, spodi.

1:02pm StringOFperils:

I'll take a Kit-Kat, aw, gimme three...and then I would have been washing my hands by then anyway...

1:02pm Rex:

One Twix down...47 to go...

1:03pm David in London:

Hey Mariano. You’re right. I’ve failed on basic stranger danger training.
Yo Spod.

1:03pm spodiodi:

what if i'm also in a van, mariano?
SOP, have 4, brotherman

1:03pm spodiodi:

made with real milk choco

1:04pm Rex:

To get candy, you have to share your best Halloween costume ever...

1:04pm StringOFperils:

I think once those TWIX get thoroughly hard like glass, they can be used for tent pegs.

1:04pm spodiodi:

my edward scissorhands seemed to go over well

🌮

1:04pm Mailman Tom:

Simon Oakland! He was Kolchak's boss at the Chicago news bureau. They went together like ham and eggs.

1:05pm common:

Rex all

🌮

1:05pm Hubig Pie:

Simon Oakland , your trusted voice for those suffering from mommy issues

1:06pm DjLorraine:

E X C I T I N G!!

1:08pm mariano:

I dunno. I hear that Twix Corp underpays its miners.

1:08pm David in London:

Having grown up in 70s Britain, Halloween was not a thing here then, so I have no costume memories to share, good or bad. I did however star as a zombie in a very bad 80s student horror flick, so I’m saying that counts. It was appalling. In every sense of the word.

Common. Hubig. Yo!

1:08pm Greg from ZONE 5:

Afternoon, Rex & Fools!

1:10pm DjLorraine:

I was Elvira with a pretty accurate wig.

🌮

1:11pm Hubig Pie:

Greetings, Halloween deprived David

1:12pm egould310:

Vodka and oj goes well with the tunes. Cheers to all you Fools. Hi from Seattle.

1:13pm ami ad:

Hello DJ. Hello all. Baking some own made ziti,holler when in bed-stuy.

1:13pm ami ad:

cheers

1:14pm egould310:

Simon Oakland played A great character Vince St. Cloud on Rockford Files. Rockford Files is the best tv show; ever.

1:14pm mariano:

Could it be someone else's costume, Rex? I'm too lazy to disguise.

David: Same in Honduras when I was a kid, though some expat families celebrated. From the Honduran perspective, once a year the Americans dressed their children like monsters and went house to house asking for candy.

1:16pm Rex:

Other people's costume will be honored...

1:19pm David in London:

Egould310, I concur. As a kid, all I wanted for the future was a gold Firebird and an answering machine.

1:21pm egould310:

@David in London keep that dream alive, baby.

1:22pm Greg from ZONE 5:

Oh, in that case my friend Ed deserves mention for A) His ginormous full-body sock puppet complete with googly eyes, and B) His ginormous foam core Chinese food box complete with chopsticks.

1:22pm mariano:

Ok, here's one, though it's not from Halloween, just another night in the French Quarter: photos.app.goo.gl...

1:24pm spodiodi:

yyyyyes!

1:25pm spodiodi:

"The Echoes " !! love this song

1:25pm Hubig Pie:

1:25pm RevComX:

It wasn't Halloween, but I once attended a LebowskiFest dressed as the peed on rug.

1:26pm dave wuz here:

hey it's that guy from the thing

1:26pm spodiodi:

had to stop messing up my hair to let that out

1:26pm David in London:

Mariano. You’re right, that is a truly terrifying costume. A pink velour hoodie, sheesh...

1:26pm spodiodi:

1:26pm mariano:

David: Yeah, scared the bejabbers out of that poor demon :(

1:27pm coelacanth∅:

1:28pm Andres:

Afternoon Rex and all! Hopped Up High School Kids. Did they ever get a record deal?

1:29pm coelacanth∅:

(i must just imagine that costume,alas)

1:32pm egould310:

Beastiality cannibalistic exhibitionism... I’m exhausted just trying to picture it in my mind.

1:33pm RevComX:

Rex is the king of cannibalistic rock 'n' roll!

1:34pm mariano:

egould310: It's one of those things where word order is crucial, I think.

1:34pm Greg from ZONE 5:

There's a laundry machine ad on the air right now that repurposes ODB's "Got Your Money."

1:34pm DjLorraine:

Mariano, that picture did not disappoint! WOW

🌮

1:36pm Mailman Tom:

The Exotic Ones

1:37pm Sylvia's Mother:

Where's Jett?

1:37pm Ken From Hyde Park:

The grain trucks on the old farm didn't have synchros, so I became well familiar with the double-clutch action.

1:38pm David in London:

Hey Coela. No-brow greetings to you.

1:39pm Choggie:

Rickety, rackety REX!

1:41pm mariano:

2:03pm Handy Haversack:

Rex! Fools! I am back from the world. People out there are putting on Brows, and I don't like it. Glad to be back where I belong! David, Greg, coela, and others upthread: hey there!

2:03pm coelacanth∅:

Choggie, maybe true, but he should've been ashamed of himself for appropriating it

2:04pm common:

Did earl king write trick bag? Was this already discussed? Sorry. Drinking beer

2:05pm coelacanth∅:

hey Handy!

2:07pm tatters of jive and boogie-woogie∅:

debased

2:07pm Handy Haversack:

What's good, coela? Blue skies in Brooklyn today. Our apt. is completely in shadow from equinox to equinox. I was shocked that it was actually pleasant and not frigid when I went outside.

2:08pm Handy Haversack:

Tatters of jive is the food that gets us through the winter.

2:08pm RevComX:

MY BRAIN HURTS

2:09pm ami ad:

mmm,brains. hello Handy.

2:12pm DjLorraine:

I think this Wed, 7SD, they are teaching the proper basics of twisting. (dance). Idk

2:13pm Handy Haversack:

Hey, ami!

2:14pm tatters of jive and boogie-woogie∅:

same here Handy, basically. my old apartment had 2 windows but top floor on the top of a hill and i never even turned lights on during the day, year round. this one has lots of windows but it's cold even when it's 70º out.
it's nice when it's brutally hot out though.

2:15pm KevinfromBayRidge:

Hello all Fools in Paradise. Simon Oakland was a great foil in "Kolchak".

2:15pm tatters of jive and boogie-woogie∅:

but yes, beautiful here now too

2:16pm David in London:

Handy, check your brow and your worries at the door.
Hey ami ad.

2:20pm RevComX:

Rex...you know me so well...

2:20pm luka:

KBBL i mean WFMU’s gonna give me something stupid!

2:21pm Greg from ZONE 5:

@luka: Like a full-grown African elephant?

2:22pm DjLorraine:

Or the Indian Elephant?

2:23pm Sweet Corn Lizzie:

My mom and I made a robot costume out of boxes. I won a prize! Where’s my KitKat?

2:23pm ami ad:

@David in London:Hi. Watched a show about people from Manchester the other day,wild bunch.

2:23pm Handy Haversack:

That wasn't part of the deal, Blackheart! It wasn't paaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrt!

2:23pm Tommy in Neversink:

I consider myself a no-brow in good standing but that started to drive me crazy

2:24pm mariano:

Hi ami!

2:28pm egould310:

Heading out for brunch. Thanx Rex!

2:28pm ami ad:

@mariano:Hello. Any new ice cream shops down by you?

2:29pm lions n chips:

Rex can we talk about my friends mother who would be very known to the world of all brow Hollywood entrainments

2:30pm chimps n lions:

A dedication thing while she's still I good shape

2:30pm mariano:

ami: Not any new ones lately, just the two that are dangerously nearby. Oh, I read that an ice-cream shop in Brooklyn has a flavor called Sweet Socialism, and I can't wait till Fox News gets wind of it ;)

🌮

2:31pm JG:

Non Denino pizza night. Going to Bayonne to pick up an Al Santillo pie.

2:31pm RevComX:

THE Christine Jorgensen??

2:31pm David in London:

ami ad. Ha ha, yes, the wild Mancs. I lived there for five years. Great city, and a crazy time to be there.

2:32pm Rex:

Lions n chips---Who is she?!?!?

2:32pm David in London:

That crow sound effect should be on every record made by law.

2:33pm Rex:

RevComX- Yep! That's her! I mean him...I mean her!

2:33pm Handy Haversack:

The locals still refer to those years as "when things really went barmy," as I hear it, David.

2:33pm ami ad:

@mariano:hehe,read that crap,it's in upper manhattan,not even in brooklyn,wha?

2:34pm howler:

A Deb Stars of 1966

2:35pm Rex:

JG- Isn't bring a pizza across state lines a violation of the Mann Act??

2:35pm ami ad:

@David in London/all:ever watched people just do nothing?

2:36pm David in London:

My presence undoubtedly provided the trigger effect Handy.

2:36pm Andres:

Mariano: What does Sweet Socialism taste like? Either a weak Soviet tea without enough sugar. Or a Canadian chain store coffee with tons of cream and sweetened with maple syrup.

🌮

2:37pm JG:

@Rex , Santillo's has got a pie worth breaking federal law for. And I misspoke , It's not in Bayonne its in Elizabeth. Had my bridges mixed up. Right over the Goethels

2:37pm animals wild:

Daktari

2:38pm Andres:

Also, was tuning in while on a walk with the dog and caught a snippet of a phone conversation - "Is that because she's losing control?". Seemed appropriate in the context of the show.

🌮

2:40pm JG:

And Rex, I may just eat it it in Elizabeth at the Pass Time Tavern instead of defying the interstate pizza law. No tables at Al's but the Tavern will let ya eat yer pizza there

🌮

2:40pm Hubig Pie:

Trick Bag, penned by Earl King
He's a king
He's an earl
why is this man not president ?

2:41pm ami ad:

@mariano/Andres:sweet socialism (V)

The African island of Madagascar provides us with this single-estate dark chocolate. The result is a decadent, rich sorbet often mistaken for ice cream because of its creamy, milky texture.

2:42pm mariano:

Andres: lol! I think it might taste like blåbärsglass.

2:43pm kpx:

@SCL@2:23, if you like mint then ask Rex for the mint + dark chocolate kit Kat.

2:43pm David in London:

Ami ad. I worked in the British Civil Service once, so yes I certainly have watched people doing nothing. People there were skilled professionals at it.

2:44pm Handy Haversack:

Hubig, there oughta be a law!

2:44pm ami ad:

@mariano:It's not even ice cream.......hehe. sorry,the vodka is kicking in.

2:45pm Ken From Hyde Park:

All brows at attention!

2:46pm Todd-o-phonic Todd:

I think a "no brow" is no longer something new at this point.

2:46pm spodiodi:

my costume had my brows covered in liquid latex -- a no-brow, for sure

2:46pm spodiodi:

hoping that scores me an extra kitkat

2:47pm Handy Haversack:

No brows also have memory problems, Todd.

2:47pm DjLorraine:

Kit Kat brow

2:47pm spodiodi:

plus, rain in the eyes

2:48pm ami ad:

@David in London:Yes of course,gov jobs. Hehe,I meant the tv show,about Kurupt FM.

2:49pm ami ad:

the girls phis ed teacher in high school told me i have green brows.

2:49pm spodiodi:

kinda like this, DJLorraine? external-content.duckduckgo.com...

2:50pm Andres:

ami + mariano: I am having trouble choosing between the two.

2:51pm kpx:

@ami ad: is that the vodka and apple cider vinegar drink that you recommended to clear the throat, or something like that.

2:51pm mariano:

I'm holding out for Sweet Social Democracy.

2:51pm StringOFperils:

No-Brows make great coasters.

2:52pm ami ad:

@kpx:nah,that's the healthy shot. Got some vodka san pellegrino going on today. Limon.

2:53pm tatters of jive and boogie-woogie∅:

2:53pm ami ad:

2:54pm Todd-o-phonic Todd:

2:55pm Brez:

2:55pm David in London:

Ami ad. No, not seen it. Any good?

2:56pm ami ad:

Yezzzzzzz

2:56pm tatters of jive and boogie-woogie∅:

when it rains the inside of my glasses get wet. i think my brows need fertilizer.

2:56pm Handy Haversack:

Nice, ami. I'm about to crack open a bottle of good cider.

Rex, thanks for the calming and dumbing tunes! I am much collected.

Be well, Fools! See some of you in the clubhouse-o-phonic, I'm sure. Or next week in Paradise.

2:56pm David in London:

Thanks Rex. I can bash my head against the wall for the rest of the night with equanimity now.
Later Groovers.

2:56pm RevComX:

Thanks Rex...you have liberated many cells from my brain!

2:57pm ami ad:

Thank you DJ,Crew. Wouldn't be drinking without you.

2:57pm Andres:

Todd: Who is this Bobby No Hair from Delaware? Search engine refers me to Millie Bobby Brown which seems wrong.

2:57pm spodiodi:

thanx, Rex!
thanks, Ruth!
cheerio, all brows!

2:57pm kpx:

all right everyone you know the drill remain where you are until Rex is gone
