	8:25pm Pomme d'Or: Hi krys, your show is awesome!
	8:26pm Krys O.: Merci, Pomme!
	👻 8:30pm Mr Fab: That Jim Price was awesome! Too bad the archives don't go back to the '80s, who knows what wonders went down in the pre-internet days that are gone forever.
	8:30pm Kat in Chicago: LOL Wrongnumberguy
	8:31pm Krys O.: Most definitely, Mr. Fab. I had others from Richard, Kat, but I can't locate them.
	👻 8:36pm Austin Rich: This show is solid, Krys O! Thanks for teeing me up so well.
	8:36pm Krys O.: Thank you, Austin. I'm humbled.
	👻 8:37pm Austin Rich: This isn't a surprise, but I thought you should know.
	8:38pm chresti: Telephone ribaldry in the wigglery!
	8:38pm Krys O.: That's me with the archaic verbiage.
	8:40pm Barno in Akron: Hello everyone! Is this the wiggle party?
	👻 8:41pm Austin Rich: Wiggler's Only!
	👻 8:41pm Mr Fab: Hey Barno, it's telephonic jocularity!
	8:41pm Krys O.: Greetings, Barno!
	8:41pm chresti: The best verbiage!
	8:42pm Barno in Akron: I've been listening for a while tonight. It's a fun show.
	8:43pm Krys O.: Thank you kindly.
	👻 8:44pm Austin Rich: Speaking of lost WFMU airchecks from the past: I wonder if that's something that we could crowdsource something like that? I bet we could uncover a lot of weird stuff from listeners if we put out a call for recordings.
	8:44pm chresti: I think this is the first time I heard ribaldry spoken, before I thought it rhymed with "piebald"
	8:44pm Scott67: Slightly over speed?
	8:45pm Krys O.: A pal of mine has tons of WFMU airchecks.
	8:46pm Krys O.: Intentionally, Scott. :)
	8:46pm chresti: they talked fast in those days

	👻 8:47pm Austin Rich: I've never seen a sound wave, but I have seen an Elephant Fly
	8:48pm chresti: Thanks Krys! I always laugh when I hear sped up voices
	8:49pm Krys O.: I always feel compelled to mess around with industrial films.
	👻 8:49pm Mr Fab: Austin: Boom! And your idea about collecting pre-internet FMU airchecks is a good one. That'd be cool to have a section on the website dedicated to whatever people can donate.
	8:50pm Scott67: Feel like I'm in an old Disneyland Exhibit during a power surge!
	👻 8:50pm Austin Rich: I bet we could create a shared folder somewhere, and let listeners upload files. Then we could periodically collect everything and forward it to some archive section of the website.
	8:50pm chresti: suddenly they turned into chickens
	👻 8:51pm Austin Rich: I'm with you on the Industrial Films, Krys O. Or old dialog from any movie. I just feel like it's waiting to be sampled, or repurposed.
	8:52pm Krys O.: "Where are my kumquats!"
	👻 8:53pm Mr Fab: Krys: Haha! Is it the same actor?
	8:53pm Scott67: I'd rather not talk about it Krys!
	8:53pm Krys O.: This is an earlier AT&T promo for telephone courtesy.
	8:54pm Scott67: What is a Telephone?
	8:54pm Krys O.: It's like a gramophone.

	8:59pm Krys O.: Don't forget to hang up the receiver properly and do not tangle the cord.
	👻 9:00pm Mr Fab: hate to hang up on this great show, Krys!
	2:09pm KBC: Great minds think alike! I just polished off my 4th PhonePod.
