WFMU: Old Codger with Courtney T. Edison: Playlist from May 13, 2021

Listener comments!
	1:15pm Lolabelle Pancake: Hello, Codgerians and Pancakifiers! Also Delbartonians and Flippants! We welcome you to the poutin' shanty for tonight's shellac-a-ganza! I'm talking silly because Courtney slipped some Sly Weasel into my Greek yogurt & granola and I'm tipsy too early in the day! Maybe a nap will help.
	3:13pm G: Did Delbarton whip up some Kremlin Tea for Fablio, or something?
	3:40pm rrg: I heard that Fablio might have received the Delbarton Labs Breakthrough Vaccine.
	3:58pm Lolabelle Pancake: There is a rumor that Fablio has been felled by Delbarton's disease. The folks in the white coats at Delbarton Labs are busy burning documents and bleaching hard drives.
	4:15pm HyperDose: Can we hold a candlelight vigil in the Shanty, or does that violate Courtney's strict no-nonsense fire code?
	4:35pm G: The alternate rumor is that a huge dusty pile of LPs fell over on him and herniated a lumbar disc. Kind of a latterday Collyer Brothers thing.
	6:00pm ultradamno: I tell you what, if this station had any respect for Courtney or the listeners, they would have sprung for full-size minotaurs
	6:01pm G: Significant budgetary concerns, ultra.
	6:01pm Lolabelle Pancake: Ever had minotaur burgers? Very tasty. A Codger specialty.
	6:04pm Euneeda S. Bodenheim: Lolabelle: Is Delbarton's disease anything like dropsy? Or is it a men's disorder, like a stubborn variocele? Gus gets those all the time.
	6:05pm Rosey is Listening on 91.1 MHz: I unfortunately still have not made flapjacks to enjoy during this programme, so I can't call myself a Pancakifier yet. Haven't even had a glass of bourbon, so I can't even call myself a Codgerian! Excited for the show as always!
	6:06pm Lolabelle Pancake: Euneeda, Gus IS a disease. They named Bodenheim's Delirium after him.
	6:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Sun goin' down & I can' be on the street this town ...one dirty flapjack - & a glass of dirty boogie if you'd be so kind...
	6:06pm G: Billiken woke up dis mornin, Wrote him some sunbeam blues.
	6:06pm DJ Guin: too early for flapjacks?
	6:07pm G: Billiken woke up dis mornin, Wrote him some sunbeam blues.
	6:07pm G: Huh? Stereo.
	6:08pm ultradamno: It's breakfast served anytime in the poutin' shanty, I believe
	6:08pm G: with poutine
	6:08pm HyperDose: @DJ Guin Finally woke up from that birthday cake coma? 😉
	6:09pm dale: has courtney received any new free cats with his latest wish book purchase?
	6:10pm DJ Guin: @HyperDose -- I subbed rugelach for cake, but, da, comrade...I was on the board for the Pidge...S.A.M is a must on Thursdays
	6:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...alright. Thank ye muchly. One easy over & make it look like an accident...
	6:11pm G: "One call Does it all"
	6:12pm yippie: real lawyers don't say "deep pockets" or "ambulance chaser"
	6:13pm DJ Guin: "If you like penis inside ya And walks in the rain If you like anl sx at midnight On the dunes of the Cape" Those are the lyrics, right? Right?
	6:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Cheers ! [glug glug] I will follow that with an ambulance chaser! Fancy...
	6:14pm DJ Guin: What's the difference between a dead snake and a dead lawyer lying in the road? There are skid marks before the snake.
	6:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: DJ G I'll ask Ruth ...she's Etting right over there too as it happens ...well - you ask her...
	6:14pm G: @DJ G.: uh...
	6:15pm Lolabelle Pancake: Gus didn't say Delbarton Injury Law had real attorneys. That would be an actionable falsehood.
	6:16pm G: Disclaimer: Not approved by the ABA to cure or treat any legal condition.
	6:17pm Laura L: It's an LLCC--Limited Liability Catastrophe Concierge
	6:17pm The Butterman: My school principal ( boss) was speaking on the P.A. the other day and he sounded EXACTLY like our ol’ Codger
	6:19pm Lolabelle Pancake: Butterman: Courtney moonlights as a vocal coach. He has turned out dozens of sonorous PA announcers over the decades. They sound EXACTLY like him.
	6:20pm Lolabelle Pancake: It's a gift.
	6:20pm The Butterman: I just figured it meant my boss IS losing his mind.
	6:24pm JT: can someone kindly provide a translation guide or style sheet for the above comments? ty!
	6:24pm rrg: LL, Butterman: do you have to answer an arithmetic question every time you post?
	6:25pm G: @JT: Use the google machine's Nonsense to English translator.
	6:25pm JT: thx G! will do. ( :) )
	6:26pm HyperDose: Getting the lawyers involved? Seems out of character for a guy who wears silly hats all the time.
	6:27pm zopa: Blavatsky! That old mystic.
	6:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: JT - drink this. Ish miraculish for thuh comprehenshuns !
	6:28pm G: Weekly salute to Ub
	6:30pm Laura L: RRG, Yes, I do have to do the math. WFMU's ways are mysterious--the punishment for listeners who prefer not to have a picture or "avatar," apparently.
	6:30pm DJ Guin: In Soviet Russia, Warts Give You Frogs!
	6:31pm DJ Guin: You've been a bad listener, Laura. Prepare to be something....something
	6:32pm Lolabelle Pancake: Sorry everyone, I was away from the comments forum. Had to help Courtney douse the blaze on his poutin' shanty sofa. He doesn't have a fire extinguisher. We had to make do with whatever liquids were at hand. Now we're down to just a half-bottle of Sly Weasel.
	6:33pm ultradamno: You could make an avatar of the mathematical equation, just to be safe.
	6:33pm Lolabelle Pancake: This Flip the Frog major motion picture has more dialogue than most.
	6:33pm KWilde: Flip the Frog still unappreciated as an actor
	6:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Truly one of the more extravagantly gifted Expressionist Animated Amphibious Thespians. I say run him up the tadpole & Salute him.
	6:36pm The Butterman: Did he say that I have to give him a big salami? Well, ok if you insist!
	6:37pm ultradamno: "You've got to give me a big salaam" immediately became a popular catchphrase in certain personal hygiene establishments.
	6:38pm Jennica: Enjoying. Thank you Courtney.
	6:40pm DJ Guin: Remember the Dipsy Dodo? He exposed Fred & Barney's scheme to visit Frantic City!
	6:40pm Edward: That was a trenchant warning on the dangers of the Dipsy Doodle.
	6:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: More like Dipsey Don'tle then.
	6:43pm G: @Butterman: Formby made a whole career out of double entendre. ""When I'm Cleaning Windows" was banned by the BBC. The corporation's director John Reith stated that "if the public wants to listen to Formby singing his disgusting little ditty, they'll have to be content to hear it in the cinemas, not over the nation's airwaves"; Formby was furious with the block on the song."
	6:44pm Lolabelle Pancake: If you think Formby was filthy, wait'll you hear Sophie Tucker next!
	6:44pm G: Oooohhh!!!
	6:45pm rrg: There's a great album called "This Record Is Not to Be Broadcast: 75 Records Banned by the BBC 1931-1957". Formby is on it, of course.
	6:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: G & rrg: ...so there's more than anecDon'tle evidence...
	6:46pm The Butterman: Hubba hubba!
	6:47pm dave wuz here: these trailer hitches don't de-chrome themselves
	6:47pm Lolabelle Pancake: Courtney had to turn on the a/c in the poutin' shanty!
	6:47pm yippie: I'm the last of the purple hot daddies
	6:47pm Ivan from Woodbridge: The last of the of the Red Hot Mamas! Wow!
	6:48pm The Butterman: Thanks G, I appreciate that tidbit. I will do further research.
	6:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Tuckered out meself...
	6:52pm zopa: Ahhhhh. Billie.
	6:52pm Ivan from Woodbridge: Billie! My cup runneth over.
	6:53pm Listener Robert: It finally dawned on me that in the playlist, one should not parse that as Delbarton (Injury Law), but as (Delbarton Injury) Law,
	6:53pm Jennica: One of my faves
	6:53pm HyperDose: ™
	6:53pm yippie: doesn't tom Lehrer sing this one?
	6:53pm Lolabelle Pancake: Billie's parents were just a couple of kids when they got married. Her dad was 18, her mom was 15, and Billie was three.
	6:54pm Listener Robert: And before I forget, best wishes to the Real Fabio for a speedy recovery.
	6:54pm G: Seconded
	6:55pm Lolabelle Pancake: If Fablio had gotten his 15th shot of the Delbarton vaccine, he wouldn't have had these health issues.
	6:55pm yippie: she's my girl right?
	6:55pm Jennica: Liistener Robert and Hyper: Ha! Billie died in Fells Point. I have visited her there recently, a few times.
	6:57pm rrg: This has been an hour very well spent. Thanks to those responsible for it.
	6:58pm dale: elton didn't yodel in that one.
	6:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Phil Spector said Lenny Bruce died of an overdose of Police. I think Billie was ahead of that curve. TY DJ Codger !
	7:00pm HyperDose: Thanks Courtney and Lolabelle!
