	6:06am Katharsis: It is neither good or bad it just is
	6:08am dale: i would surmise that monkeys have the most to hide, what with the opposable thumbs and all the pockets on their cute clothes.
	6:10am Andrea C from the app: Hello Amanda, Jim, and animals lovers!
	6:10am Aaron Working In Newark: Good Morning!
	6:10am john_zilla: good morning humans, animals!
	6:11am Amanda: Good morning everyone!!!
	6:14am Cooh John: Good morning Jim, Amanda, and manimals.
	6:18am Katharsis: @yetz go ahead get weird. Up early indicates you got some sleep. I am envious.
	6:20am Yetz: ↳ Katharsis @6:18 Don't be too envious, I had surgery yesterday and I woke up in pain b/c the painkillers wore off. Now I'm just trying to distract myself, waiting for the drugs to kick in ...
	6:21am yippie: a good place to see turtles in central park is the big pond near 110th and Lenox
	6:21am Yetz: The giant snapping turtle "Chonk" who lives in the Chicago River made the news: www.theguardian.com...
	6:25am yippie: I just got a kitty named Ms squidward
	6:26am radioronan: Good morning Amanda, Jim & critters!
	6:26am dale: ↳ Yetz @6:21 wonder how old chonk is....
	6:27am Jim the Poet: I love the Chonk
	6:28am Yetz: ↳ dale @6:26 Wow! "Since they have no natural enemies, snapping turtles have an annual adult mortality rate of only 1 to 1.3 percent. Almost all snapping turtles who survive to adulthood enjoy long lives and die of old age. Snapping turtles often live more than 100 years with a maximum theoretical life span of 170 years."
	6:33am Yetz: Apparently you can estimate their age by counting rings on their shell (like trees) but I can't find a picture where you can really see the rings clearly. I might just have to take my kayak out on the Chicago River and go look for him myself! (When I'm recovered, that is)
	6:34am P-90: Well that set got my eyes open
	6:34am captain beef fart: The duck sounds made my wife scramble around looking for her phone
	6:35am Andrea C from the app: Quack, says the duck. What!?!? Replied confused the schmuck.

	6:43am Yetz: I know exactly where that picture is ... I go kayaking in the Chicago river. a lot
	6:44am Yetz: The video was made by Al Scorch, who is a great musician and a friend of mine. He's doing an exaggerated Chicago accent in the video, it's quite funny
	6:46am Yetz: (don't watch it now but maybe later look at www.youtube.com...
	6:53am dale: ↳ Yetz @6:28 a lot get hit crossing the roads sadly.
	6:54am Amanda: I was just visiting family who have a big pond - they say that each year the Canada geese have babies but all of them get eaten by turtles!
	6:54am Yetz: But if you hit Chonk I might be worried about your car!
	7:01am Michael from down Richmond way: Good morning Amanda and Jim! Long time listener, first time commenter…LOVE THE SHOW!
	7:03am melinda: Morning everyone
	7:03am Erik/VermonT: Dang … my ears are always peaked by tracks from TUSK. I always assume I know that album well, yet when I hear a random track … “oh, which one is That ?!” Yaya.
	7:04am Amanda: ↳ Michael from down Richmond way @7:01 Thank you so much, Michael! We love to see it!

	7:07am Michael from down Richmond way: https://openlibrary.org/books/OL7465865M/Minn_of_the_Mississippi
	7:07am luka: gm animals
	7:09am dale: ↳ Michael from down Richmond way @7:07 do turtles migrate like that?
	7:09am Yetz: ↳ Michael from down Richmond way @7:07 I don't know that one Michael, but looking up the author (Holling C. Holling), I see that he also wrote "Paddle-to-the-Sea" which is very charming, was made into a film and my friends in the Third Coast Percussion Ensemble produced a new soundtrack for the film and performed it live...
	7:12am Michael from down Richmond way: Dale, I don’t know if they migrate like that but if the live as long as they do maybe it’s possible they could make it that far? Regardless, seems more of a device to tell the story of the Mississippi. Yetz, Paddle to the See is also really good. For me, it’s the marginalia that really makes his books special.
	7:12am dale: ↳ Yetz @7:09 does that start with a boy putting the toy canoe on a melting snowbank over a creek? THEY SHOWED US THAT IN GRADE SCHOOL! always stuck with me but couldn't remember the name.
	7:13am Yetz: ↳ dale @7:12 That's the one!

	7:18am Yetz: ↳ Song: "Dog Eyes" by "Dijon" is that whimpering dog on the record or did you add that?
	7:24am Yetz: I hear too much whining from my neighbor's dogs already!
	7:28am The Butterman: Ooooooooo. Ants! My favorite!
	7:29am Andrea C from the app: Music for Ants reminds me of one of my favorite ambient albums: Subsurfing Frizen Ants. A true masterpiece
	7:29am Andrea C from the app: What’s with typos today!?!!!
	7:29am Yetz: Ok had to look it up: "DO ANTS SLEEP? A recent study of ants’ sleep cycle found that the average worker ant takes approximately 250 naps each day, with each one lasting just over a minute. That adds up to 4 hours and 48 minutes of sleep per day. The research also found that 80 percent of the ant workforce was awake and active at any one time."
	7:31am Yetz: ↳ Andrea C from the app @7:29 (more like ambiANT amirite?)
	7:32am Andrea C from the app: Lol u r rite :)
	7:32am JR: Yeah, we listen in Fernandina Beach, FL and wherever we’re traveling. I do this because my son in SF listens and clued me in. The scope is unreal! It’s also a welcome respite. Cheers and many thanks.
	7:37am yippie: Amanda bynes used to go by just Amanda for The Amanda Show, she is pretty wild
	7:41am The Butterman: The pet ant in my mind who has been with me since I was a toddler is named Herman. Don’t ask but it may be some sort of Shining thing. I’m good though.
	7:49am Pax: Morning Amanda and Jim tP, All. If anyone remembers Nacho the dog here's a link for what's happening with him. https://www.facebook.com/SecondChancePetAdoptionLeague/posts/pfbid0fPwc43btKPCkAsrm8KcTser4nT8hTDjT1cjWpBTg3d14JsLmkx3gYd89ufeUuGxtl

	8:02am swivs: I lived with a cat/dog for a while. The cat followed me around everywhere, wouldn't leave me alone, actually. Which was fine except for when I was recording songs and he would want to sit right on my Casio keyboard.
	8:03am Will thee Sound Guy: good morning Amanda, Jim, and all!!!
	8:04am swivs: One of my songs opens with me muttering "get the f*** away from me", which sounds kinda bad-ass, but I was actually just talking to the cat.

	8:23am Pax: ↳ Amanda @8:09 I copied that link to my clipboard so I don't know if that makes a difference on how clickable it is. I'm an antique analog old-timer, so half the time I don't know what I'm doing. And the other half I just fake it and hope it works out.
	8:23am HyperDose: omg Jim listens to Hey Babe 😍
	8:24am Yetz: ↳ Pax @8:23 Pax: Links are clickable if you are logged in when you post, otherwise not.

	8:37am Yetz: ↳ Song: "Mariposa" by "Rose City Band" "Mixed by John McEntire at Soma Studios." - Yeah it's got that John McEntire sound! I thought we were listening to Sea&Cake actually
	8:42am P-90: We used to call this Easy Listnin’
	8:42am Kathleen from JC: ↳ Amanda @8:35 Perfect solution for cat allergy! Take care of ferals! Your brother-in-law sounds like a fine young man.
	8:48am Listener Robert: Jim, when you asked Irwin whether you could be an outsider musician, was it in the context of you as an outsider artist?
	8:52am Jim the Poet: I don't know how to play any instruments or sing. But being an outsider musician requires more than very little musical skill it seems.
	8:56am Listener Robert: ↳ Jim the Poet @8:52 I mean, had you been discussing your being an outsider visual artist?

	7:29am Andrea C from the app: What’s with typos today!?!!!
	7:29am Yetz: Ok had to look it up: "DO ANTS SLEEP? A recent study of ants’ sleep cycle found that the average worker ant takes approximately 250 naps each day, with each one lasting just over a minute. That adds up to 4 hours and 48 minutes of sleep per day. The research also found that 80 percent of the ant workforce was awake and active at any one time."

	7:32am Andrea C from the app: Lol u r rite :)

	8:23am Pax: ↳ Amanda @8:09 I copied that link to my clipboard so I don't know if that makes a difference on how clickable it is. I'm an antique analog old-timer, so half the time I don't know what I'm doing. And the other half I just fake it and hope it works out.
