	12:05pm Uncle Michael: How are you all doing this morning? Hi Brian, James, Bob, NGH and Steve...thanks for being here. You too, Henry!
	12:06pm Paul Sherratt: Had a pizza with Barry White a few weeks before his sell-out London gig.
	12:06pm pacific standard simon: The walk-in refrigerator at work has a picture of Chris on it with the caption, "Close the door, slick." Walken, geddit? Ha ha.
	12:07pm Uncle Michael: Henry, we will revist that collection some time. Hi Paul. Hi Simon.
	12:08pm Doug Schulkind: Fuck you, Paul Simon.
	12:08pm davex: Good day, UM et al!
	12:09pm Uncle Michael: What did Paul do this time?! Hiya Dave.
	12:10pm Mike East: Hey fellas @simon - you work in a restaurant? chef?
	12:10pm pacific standard simon: Some respect for the late Presidential hopeful from the state of Illinois!
	12:10pm Mike East: (that's a pretty good Walken joke)
	12:10pm Stevel: Fuck bow ties.
	12:11pm pacific standard simon: @Mike East - Mad baker.
	12:11pm Uncle Michael: Welcome, Mike.

	12:15pm Lewis: sounds like Screamin' Jay (a bit)
	12:15pm Paul Sherratt: UM This is our pizza pal. http://studiojunglecat.com/savages/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/SavageKings_cover.jpg B Bumble was possibly my first exposure to exciting music - it was played before Port Vale ( soccer ) games. They only had the one record ...
	12:16pm Jack: Hi, all, Fun Friday begins...
	12:16pm Uncle Michael: Hijack!
	12:17pm Uncle Michael: Bumble had other records! Nut Rockin'!
	12:17pm pacific standard simon: I opened the paper this morning to find a picture of my boss holding a loaf of sweet potato bread that I baked on Wednesday. So I'm probably going to have to go in today and make 80 more of them. That's 27 pounds of sweet potatoes.
	12:18pm pacific standard simon: Uncle Michael, rockin' yer nuts!
	12:19pm Lewis: That's a young Chris Walken - what is the context?
	12:19pm shinola for brains: Walken is the leader of the people
	12:19pm Dean: @pss: The exact same thing happened to me yesterday!
	12:20pm Uncle Michael: The film "Brainstorm," the one that natalie Wood died during the making of.
	12:20pm pacific standard simon: @Dean - whut?
	12:21pm Lewis: Thanks UM Am I to infer that Lalo Schfrin did the bullit OST? will have to track that down…
	12:21pm Uncle Michael: Hi sfb!
	12:22pm Uncle Michael: Yes, Lewis. And hi.
	12:23pm Dean: Joking. It isn't every day you read a line like, "I opened the paper this morning to find a picture of my boss holding a loaf of sweet potato bread that I baked on Wednesday." I suppose it might be less jarring if the first verse of "Day in the Life" had started that way.
	12:28pm Uncle Michael: That was the original opening for A Tale of Two Cites.
	12:29pm johnk77: kim fowley produced nut rockin!? @mikeeast see u in 5+hours
	12:30pm Uncle Michael: Hi Dean...hi John.

	12:31pm Uncle Michael: Thank goodness those spuds are tapered.
	12:31pm Mike East: @john - maybe/maybe not...gonna try and split early ;)
	12:31pm Uncle Michael: Just sayin'...
	12:32pm efd: odds are high that another Raydio song will be heard during my disco dance party show next week.
	12:33pm shinola for brains: wow, i'm 14 again with this song
	12:33pm pacific standard simon: Maybe I can line up a side job with DEVO after this.
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: That's great news, Evan!
	12:34pm listener james from westwood: PSS: Ms. Marvel representin'!
	12:34pm johnk77: i will look for @mikeeast while riding into work weather nice ny/nj metroplex
	12:34pm northguineahills: lunch time, will be back!
	12:35pm pacific standard simon: Yeah, don't mess with Jersey City.
	12:36pm Mike East: Willie Hutch!
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: I gotta do a blaxploitation soundtrack show someday.
	12:39pm Mike East: I watched Foxy Brown a few years ago and went out the next day to find the soundtrack on vinyl. Such a good flick. @UM - great idea...there's SO much amazing material to pick from
	12:39pm listener james from westwood: I'd be there with ears on. Even Walken's.
	12:39pm shinola for brains: the velvet frog
	12:48pm PMD: Yay!
	12:48pm Lewis: You can get a dvd of Bullit for less that $5 on amazon. The OST is available on Discogs for about 3 times that...
	12:50pm PMD: Grease I have to watch
	12:50pm shinola for brains: can't not watch Goodfellas, also Cool Hand Luke
	12:51pm pacific standard simon: The Maltese Falcon. Anything with The Marx Brothers. Over and over and over.
	12:52pm Alex In Illinois: @Doug: So what was with the FY for Paul Simon about?
	12:52pm Lewis: My Cousin Vinny sucks me in pretty reliably
	12:52pm Uncle Michael: Maltese Falcon for me too.
	12:53pm Uncle Michael: The Third Man
	12:54pm PMD: Ditto what @Lewis said
	12:55pm Mike East: Trading Places and Coming to America always get me.
	12:56pm Santos L Halper: This Lee/Nancy is epic
	12:58pm Lewis: shaking his fist - Darn you UM, you make attending to my leadership duties at an Institute lunch awfully difficult - but off I go...
	12:59pm Uncle Michael: See ya Lewis...and thanks!
	12:59pm ndbob: great one here!
	1:02pm Dean: Graham Nash sounds like Grace Slick.
	1:03pm Uncle Michael: Oh, wiseguy, eh?
	1:03pm Dean: Not anymore.
	1:05pm ndbob: their second best song - after Look Through Any Window
	1:06pm Uncle Michael: Interesting. I haven't tried ranking them. Hmmm...
	1:10pm listener james from westwood: Now that I think of it, if I see part of L.A. Confidential, I have to watch to the end.
	1:11pm Pedro G.: HDT always makes work not such a bad thing on Fridays.
	1:12pm PMD: It's a great show, as usual.
	1:14pm Alex In Illinois: Something my sister posted: chronicle.com...
	1:15pm Uncle Michael: you folks are great
	1:16pm Uncle Michael: I'll read that for dessert, Alex.
	1:19pm Hugo: Ah, Edgar Broughton Band, saw them a couple of times in the early 70s and again in 2010 or thereabouts. Always nice hearing.
	1:20pm Uncle Michael: Hiya, Hugo.
	1:21pm ndbob: Interesting article Alex!
	1:26pm PMD: Blossom Dearie has a great song about a great state: Rhode Island
	1:26pm ndbob: The new John Dan book is worth reading - very long, very detailed
	1:27pm Uncle Michael: Blossom was my girl.
	1:28pm Dean: Yes, a nice article. I have my own "Nixon flag" story, but it has to do with a public meeting space where I worked just post-resignation. I was asked to set up for a movie. "The Nixon Room?," I asked to clarify location. My question was met with a cold stare, and then, "No, it's called the Multi-Purpose Room."
	1:31pm pacific standard simon: Why can't neons peacefully co-exist with wood? Look at any corner tavern.
	1:31pm Nfrae from Oregon: Space Ghost!
	1:36pm pacific standard simon: OK, gotta go wage heavy peace with the sweet potatoes. Have fun, you madcap kids!
	1:36pm Dean: Nina at her very, very best.
	1:37pm Uncle Michael: You raise a valid question, Simon. I think you should apply for a research grant. Hi, Nfrae!
	1:37pm Mike East: Anybody read the Nina Simone article in the NY'er this week? I just started it this morning. She's so amazing. Gave me chills just reading about her
	1:38pm ndbob: @Mike I did - was just thinking about that - very interesting article
	1:38pm Uncle Michael: I have it upstairs. I'm going to read it!
	1:40pm Mike East: Nina Simone is my desert island artist...could listen to her forever
	1:40pm listener james from westwood: Internet weirdness abounds. Earlier Doug had problems w/ the RSS reader; now I can't get Firefox to connect to the net from my laptop. Not the biggest of the planet's problems, but still odd....
	1:42pm Pedro G.: This Nina Simone piece is almost a bookend to her "Porgy": www.youtube.com...
	1:48pm βrian: Back after a mighty fine bowl of bibimbap and two sides of kimchee.
	🛒 1:49pm KevinfromBayRidge: Allo UM & Hinky Dinkers all. Passed on a chance to see Fogerty @ Jones Beach this week. Saw him this winter at the Beacon. Great show but once every few years is enough with John. Thanks for "piling" on the F-ing great CRAP today, Unc!
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: That's a lotta cabbage.
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: Hi Kevin. My pleasure.
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: Hiya Pedro
	1:56pm Dean: Jimmy Smith once told me not to drink so many martinis.
	2:01pm V Priceless: Hey Uncle Michael & gang! I'm definitely gonna get suspended for tardiness, I fear!
	2:02pm shinola for brains: love the keyboard!
	2:02pm Lewis: @brian - where did you get the bibimbap? (sorry about the "b")
	2:02pm Uncle Michael: Did you bring a note?
	2:03pm V Priceless: dog ate it, UM!
	2:03pm Uncle Michael: You can stay late and clean the erasers.
	2:03pm listener james from westwood: UM, this show's been manna for the soul. Onward to hour 3!
	2:04pm V Priceless: sigh...ok, fair enough.
	2:05pm Uncle Michael: Thank you James. And away....we...go!
	2:07pm βrian: Korean at Sol's on Mifflin. A little more upscale than what I'm used to, but the food was excellent.
	2:10pm Uncle Michael: You don't hear a lot of drum solos on Hinky Dinky Time.
	2:13pm Stanley: Hi UM and the gang Had a shit day, time for my therapy.
	2:13pm Uncle Michael: Hi Evan!
	2:13pm Uncle Michael: Hi Stanley!
	2:14pm Uncle Michael: Let me fix your day.
	2:15pm Lewis: Thanks Brian - will have to check it out next time I'm in Madison (well not the next time, because that is an in and out trip, but the next time I am in town long enough for a decent meal)
	2:15pm shinola for brains: i'm having flashbacks, and i like it
	2:15pm listener james from westwood: Hot damn on this April Wine!
	2:16pm Stanley: Its on days like this that I really, really appreciate what you WFMU guys do for us.
	2:17pm Lewis: @Stanley - it really does make the shit easier to take doesn't it. WFMU got me through my PhD all those decades ago and it still does the trick!
	2:17pm Uncle Michael: We just hope to be a little more interesting than your iPod on shuffle.
	2:18pm johnk77: Simon Smith & His Amazing Dancing Bear went to #4 UK in 1967 nice work by our selecter UM
	2:20pm Dean: April is the month for crullers.
	2:21pm Stanley: @Lewis - even when the shit isn't shit, its still shit, when you think about it. WFMU is like my medicine.
	2:22pm βrian: I just know "Dust in the wind" is coming ...
	2:23pm Stanley: Ah, my brothers.
	2:28pm northguineahills: What did I miss?
	2:29pm Uncle Michael: I'm not sure about DITW, Brian.
	2:29pm Mister Don Birnam: i feel a cold one comin' on
	2:29pm Stanley: @ngh - just about everything. Only kidding, here have a slug on this.
	2:29pm βrian: What did you miss? Kimchee!
	2:29pm Lewis: I am such a sucker for good old fashioned Kuntry Music...
	2:30pm Uncle Michael: Me too, Lewis. I'm so glad I didn't get my fill when I was young.
	2:31pm βrian: Especially when there are sketchy rhymes. The best!
	2:31pm northguineahills: gulp gulp gulp Thanks Stanley!
	2:32pm listener james from westwood: Marty's always got a place here. Likewise enjoying the country doings!
	2:33pm ronzoni: good stuff, unk
	2:35pm Uncle Michael: Ron! Hi, thanks for coming!
	2:36pm ronzoni: the kids love the honky tonk
	2:37pm βrian: I've never lived anywhere where one can buy beer to go from a bar. Heard of it, though.
	2:39pm northguineahills: I used to be able to buy a six-pack of beer from bars in the South in the 90s, and once in Philly in 2003. Never have every since (except when my friendly bartenders give me a bottle to go).
	2:44pm βrian: Hank Thompson was not singing about Vermont, I'm pretty sure.
	2:47pm Uncle Michael: This fairly shots "Motown." amiright?
	2:49pm Tate: Been able to listen to the last hour today
	2:50pm Uncle Michael: Glad you could, Tate. Thanks.
	2:54pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	2:54pm Stanley: Over here we can always buy to take away. We can even bring a bucket to fill up from the tap.
	2:54pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, Bob.
	2:56pm Uncle Michael: That requires an off license?
	2:57pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for hanging out today, everyone.
	2:57pm ronzoni: enjoying the covers here
	2:57pm Stanley: I think the off bit comes as part of the bar's licensing deal.
	2:58pm listener james from westwood: Glad to have hung. Thanks most kindly, UM! Safe weekend, all!!
	2:59pm Tate: Good show thanks for the tunes
	2:59pm βrian: It worked! I warded it off!
	3:00pm Stanley: So, that flew by, dug it immensely and I'm well cheered up. Bye UM and everyone. See y'all around.
	3:00pm northguineahills: Thanks UM, always a pleasure!

View Uncle Michael's profile

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

	12:17pm pacific standard simon: I opened the paper this morning to find a picture of my boss holding a loaf of sweet potato bread that I baked on Wednesday. So I'm probably going to have to go in today and make 80 more of them. That's 27 pounds of sweet potatoes.
	12:18pm pacific standard simon: Uncle Michael, rockin' yer nuts!
	12:19pm Lewis: That's a young Chris Walken - what is the context?
	12:19pm shinola for brains: Walken is the leader of the people
	12:19pm Dean: @pss: The exact same thing happened to me yesterday!
	12:20pm Uncle Michael: The film "Brainstorm," the one that natalie Wood died during the making of.
	12:20pm pacific standard simon: @Dean - whut?
	12:21pm Lewis: Thanks UM Am I to infer that Lalo Schfrin did the bullit OST? will have to track that down…
	12:21pm Uncle Michael: Hi sfb!
	12:22pm Uncle Michael: Yes, Lewis. And hi.
	12:23pm Dean: Joking. It isn't every day you read a line like, "I opened the paper this morning to find a picture of my boss holding a loaf of sweet potato bread that I baked on Wednesday." I suppose it might be less jarring if the first verse of "Day in the Life" had started that way.
	12:28pm Uncle Michael: That was the original opening for A Tale of Two Cites.
	12:29pm johnk77: kim fowley produced nut rockin!? @mikeeast see u in 5+hours
	12:30pm Uncle Michael: Hi Dean...hi John.
	12:30pm pacific standard simon: Well, today is likely to be "the worst of times", so thank you for getting it off to a good start, UM.
	12:31pm Uncle Michael: Thank goodness those spuds are tapered.
	12:31pm Mike East: @john - maybe/maybe not...gonna try and split early ;)
	12:31pm Uncle Michael: Just sayin'...
	12:32pm efd: odds are high that another Raydio song will be heard during my disco dance party show next week.
	12:33pm shinola for brains: wow, i'm 14 again with this song
	12:33pm pacific standard simon: Maybe I can line up a side job with DEVO after this.
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: That's great news, Evan!
	12:34pm listener james from westwood: PSS: Ms. Marvel representin'!
	12:34pm johnk77: i will look for @mikeeast while riding into work weather nice ny/nj metroplex
	12:34pm northguineahills: lunch time, will be back!
	12:35pm pacific standard simon: Yeah, don't mess with Jersey City.
	12:36pm Mike East: Willie Hutch!
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: I gotta do a blaxploitation soundtrack show someday.
	12:39pm Mike East: I watched Foxy Brown a few years ago and went out the next day to find the soundtrack on vinyl. Such a good flick. @UM - great idea...there's SO much amazing material to pick from
	12:39pm listener james from westwood: I'd be there with ears on. Even Walken's.
	12:39pm shinola for brains: the velvet frog
	12:48pm PMD: Yay!
	12:48pm Lewis: You can get a dvd of Bullit for less that $5 on amazon. The OST is available on Discogs for about 3 times that...
	12:50pm PMD: Grease I have to watch
	12:50pm shinola for brains: can't not watch Goodfellas, also Cool Hand Luke
	12:51pm pacific standard simon: The Maltese Falcon. Anything with The Marx Brothers. Over and over and over.
	12:52pm Alex In Illinois: @Doug: So what was with the FY for Paul Simon about?
	12:52pm Lewis: My Cousin Vinny sucks me in pretty reliably
	12:52pm Uncle Michael: Maltese Falcon for me too.
	12:53pm Uncle Michael: The Third Man
	12:54pm PMD: Ditto what @Lewis said
	12:55pm Mike East: Trading Places and Coming to America always get me.
	12:56pm Santos L Halper: This Lee/Nancy is epic
	12:58pm Lewis: shaking his fist - Darn you UM, you make attending to my leadership duties at an Institute lunch awfully difficult - but off I go...
	12:59pm Uncle Michael: See ya Lewis...and thanks!
	12:59pm ndbob: great one here!
	1:02pm Dean: Graham Nash sounds like Grace Slick.
	1:03pm Uncle Michael: Oh, wiseguy, eh?
	1:03pm Dean: Not anymore.
	1:05pm ndbob: their second best song - after Look Through Any Window
	1:06pm Uncle Michael: Interesting. I haven't tried ranking them. Hmmm...
	1:10pm listener james from westwood: Now that I think of it, if I see part of L.A. Confidential, I have to watch to the end.
	1:11pm Pedro G.: HDT always makes work not such a bad thing on Fridays.
	1:12pm PMD: It's a great show, as usual.
	1:14pm Alex In Illinois: Something my sister posted: chronicle.com...
	1:15pm Uncle Michael: you folks are great
	1:16pm Uncle Michael: I'll read that for dessert, Alex.
	1:19pm Hugo: Ah, Edgar Broughton Band, saw them a couple of times in the early 70s and again in 2010 or thereabouts. Always nice hearing.
	1:20pm Uncle Michael: Hiya, Hugo.
	1:21pm ndbob: Interesting article Alex!
	1:26pm PMD: Blossom Dearie has a great song about a great state: Rhode Island
	1:26pm ndbob: The new John Dan book is worth reading - very long, very detailed
	1:27pm Uncle Michael: Blossom was my girl.
	1:28pm Dean: Yes, a nice article. I have my own "Nixon flag" story, but it has to do with a public meeting space where I worked just post-resignation. I was asked to set up for a movie. "The Nixon Room?," I asked to clarify location. My question was met with a cold stare, and then, "No, it's called the Multi-Purpose Room."
	1:31pm pacific standard simon: Why can't neons peacefully co-exist with wood? Look at any corner tavern.
	1:31pm Nfrae from Oregon: Space Ghost!
	1:36pm pacific standard simon: OK, gotta go wage heavy peace with the sweet potatoes. Have fun, you madcap kids!
	1:36pm Dean: Nina at her very, very best.
	1:37pm Uncle Michael: You raise a valid question, Simon. I think you should apply for a research grant. Hi, Nfrae!
	1:37pm Mike East: Anybody read the Nina Simone article in the NY'er this week? I just started it this morning. She's so amazing. Gave me chills just reading about her
	1:38pm ndbob: @Mike I did - was just thinking about that - very interesting article
	1:38pm Uncle Michael: I have it upstairs. I'm going to read it!
	1:40pm Mike East: Nina Simone is my desert island artist...could listen to her forever
	1:40pm listener james from westwood: Internet weirdness abounds. Earlier Doug had problems w/ the RSS reader; now I can't get Firefox to connect to the net from my laptop. Not the biggest of the planet's problems, but still odd....
	1:42pm Pedro G.: This Nina Simone piece is almost a bookend to her "Porgy": www.youtube.com...
	1:48pm βrian: Back after a mighty fine bowl of bibimbap and two sides of kimchee.
	🛒 1:49pm KevinfromBayRidge: Allo UM & Hinky Dinkers all. Passed on a chance to see Fogerty @ Jones Beach this week. Saw him this winter at the Beacon. Great show but once every few years is enough with John. Thanks for "piling" on the F-ing great CRAP today, Unc!
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: That's a lotta cabbage.
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: Hi Kevin. My pleasure.
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: Hiya Pedro
	1:56pm Dean: Jimmy Smith once told me not to drink so many martinis.
	2:01pm V Priceless: Hey Uncle Michael & gang! I'm definitely gonna get suspended for tardiness, I fear!
	2:02pm shinola for brains: love the keyboard!
	2:02pm Lewis: @brian - where did you get the bibimbap? (sorry about the "b")
	2:02pm Uncle Michael: Did you bring a note?
	2:03pm V Priceless: dog ate it, UM!
	2:03pm Uncle Michael: You can stay late and clean the erasers.
	2:03pm listener james from westwood: UM, this show's been manna for the soul. Onward to hour 3!
	2:04pm V Priceless: sigh...ok, fair enough.
	2:05pm Uncle Michael: Thank you James. And away....we...go!
	2:07pm βrian: Korean at Sol's on Mifflin. A little more upscale than what I'm used to, but the food was excellent.
	2:10pm Uncle Michael: You don't hear a lot of drum solos on Hinky Dinky Time.
	2:13pm Stanley: Hi UM and the gang Had a shit day, time for my therapy.
	2:13pm Uncle Michael: Hi Evan!
	2:13pm Uncle Michael: Hi Stanley!
	2:14pm Uncle Michael: Let me fix your day.
	2:15pm Lewis: Thanks Brian - will have to check it out next time I'm in Madison (well not the next time, because that is an in and out trip, but the next time I am in town long enough for a decent meal)
	2:15pm shinola for brains: i'm having flashbacks, and i like it
	2:15pm listener james from westwood: Hot damn on this April Wine!
	2:16pm Stanley: Its on days like this that I really, really appreciate what you WFMU guys do for us.
	2:17pm Lewis: @Stanley - it really does make the shit easier to take doesn't it. WFMU got me through my PhD all those decades ago and it still does the trick!
	2:17pm Uncle Michael: We just hope to be a little more interesting than your iPod on shuffle.
	2:18pm johnk77: Simon Smith & His Amazing Dancing Bear went to #4 UK in 1967 nice work by our selecter UM
	2:20pm Dean: April is the month for crullers.
	2:21pm Stanley: @Lewis - even when the shit isn't shit, its still shit, when you think about it. WFMU is like my medicine.
	2:22pm βrian: I just know "Dust in the wind" is coming ...
	2:23pm Stanley: Ah, my brothers.
	2:28pm northguineahills: What did I miss?
	2:29pm Uncle Michael: I'm not sure about DITW, Brian.
	2:29pm Mister Don Birnam: i feel a cold one comin' on
	2:29pm Stanley: @ngh - just about everything. Only kidding, here have a slug on this.
	2:29pm βrian: What did you miss? Kimchee!
	2:29pm Lewis: I am such a sucker for good old fashioned Kuntry Music...
	2:30pm Uncle Michael: Me too, Lewis. I'm so glad I didn't get my fill when I was young.
	2:31pm βrian: Especially when there are sketchy rhymes. The best!
	2:31pm northguineahills: gulp gulp gulp Thanks Stanley!
	2:32pm listener james from westwood: Marty's always got a place here. Likewise enjoying the country doings!
	2:33pm ronzoni: good stuff, unk
	2:35pm Uncle Michael: Ron! Hi, thanks for coming!
	2:36pm ronzoni: the kids love the honky tonk
	2:37pm βrian: I've never lived anywhere where one can buy beer to go from a bar. Heard of it, though.
	2:39pm northguineahills: I used to be able to buy a six-pack of beer from bars in the South in the 90s, and once in Philly in 2003. Never have every since (except when my friendly bartenders give me a bottle to go).
	2:44pm βrian: Hank Thompson was not singing about Vermont, I'm pretty sure.
	2:47pm Uncle Michael: This fairly shots "Motown." amiright?
	2:49pm Tate: Been able to listen to the last hour today
	2:50pm Uncle Michael: Glad you could, Tate. Thanks.
	2:54pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	2:54pm Stanley: Over here we can always buy to take away. We can even bring a bucket to fill up from the tap.
	2:54pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, Bob.
	2:56pm Uncle Michael: That requires an off license?
	2:57pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for hanging out today, everyone.
	2:57pm ronzoni: enjoying the covers here
	2:57pm Stanley: I think the off bit comes as part of the bar's licensing deal.
	2:58pm listener james from westwood: Glad to have hung. Thanks most kindly, UM! Safe weekend, all!!
	2:59pm Tate: Good show thanks for the tunes
	2:59pm βrian: It worked! I warded it off!
	3:00pm Stanley: So, that flew by, dug it immensely and I'm well cheered up. Bye UM and everyone. See y'all around.
