Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

Upcoming events:

Wed. Dec 4th, Noon - 3pm: Freaky Wilderness (More info...)
Brooklyn’s Freaky Wilderness includes members of Space Merchants, whose 2018 album landed in EFD’s top 10 of that year. They bring their heavy, fuzzy sound to the WFMU airwaves just days before the release of their debut album Immeasurable Heaven. They’ll preview the album in this live set ahead of the album release show on Thursday Dec. 12 at Main Drag in Brooklyn.
Wed. Dec 11th, Noon - 3pm: Manager (More info...)
Manager is a three-piece band that’s based right here in Jersey City. They recently released a new EP, HOT-LINE (Texacobra), which showcases their hard-edged percolating indie sound that may remind the listener of Echo & The Bunnymen or Yo La Tengo. Tune in to this live session and hear for yourself!

	9:11pm Holly in NC: As a perimenopausal woman, my whole life is lived in a state of p.m.t. Also, what a weird song ;-) @Steve1 - Don't ask. Really. This is my break from reality!

	9:23pm Stevel: "...subside to a more professorial tone." Big talk for a big hack.
	9:25pm JakeGould: Sprio Agnew watch. www.stumptownblogger.com...
	9:26pm Loretta: love this one..
	9:30pm Stevel: Ooh, post the Fortune album cover! Its cocaine-alicious!
	9:32pm efd: no time to post the cover image, but here's the tweet that has it: twitter.com...
	9:33pm Lonely Planet Boy: Jake Gould , I had a t-shirt depicting that watch that I wore in 5th & 6th grade. My 5th grade teacher, Mrs. Forgus, sent a note to my parents saying I should be respectful and wear "button down shirts with collars".
	9:33pm Stevel: efd: Your next task is to track down the disco mixes of Fortune's tracks. You KNOW they're out there. The longer I look at that cover, the scarier it gets.
	9:34pm Uncle Michael: My chest hair needs blow drying.
	9:35pm JakeGould: @LonelyPlanetBoy, "button down shirts with collars" agh, the 1970s! I had a friend who got crap in elementary school for wearing a “Hear Comes the Judge!” sweatshirt.
	9:35pm montgomery: spiro was an allstar thief and a--hole culture warrior extrordinaire
	9:37pm Stevel: Its the women's eyes. Their eyes. Not to mention the gritted teeth.
	9:41pm JakeGould: Also, the cocaine.
	9:42pm Stevel: Always the cocaine. They had a song called "Saddle in the Wind." I shudder to think.
	9:43pm Stevel: Does Dave the Spazz have the Agnew album for samples?
	9:44pm herb.nyc: Agnew- "examples of VP TWIT"
	9:45pm Stevel: Pretty sure Snopek was from Milwaukee. Played every other week in Madison in the early 80s.
	9:45pm Lonely Planet Boy: JG, I thought the "Judge" 45" was on the Gordy label. But It was on the Soul label, also purple.
	9:46pm john: Beaky's gonna be pissed.
	9:47pm john: Beaky called. Says "THANK you."
	9:48pm fleep: Acting!
	9:49pm JakeGould: I revisited “Here Comes the Judge” a few years back. I am deeply embarrassed at what entertained me as an elementary school student.
	9:52pm Stevel: Bravo. A THESPIAN is what you are, sir.
	9:52pm daveB from Oakland: Bravo, Lorenzo, Bravo EFD!!! Excellent thespianship!
	9:52pm Charlie: Why did Fernando keep stepping on your lines?
	9:53pm john: Oh, you scenery chewer.
	9:53pm efd: My agent is already on the phone with his agent about that very issue.
	9:55pm Santos L Halper: Evening! The Knife coming to my town soon; psyched!
	9:55pm Holly in NC: @JakeGould: I recollect when Dickie Goodman was my idol, to wit: www.youtube.com...

	10:02pm montgomery: it was just my imagination running away with me efd
	10:03pm efd: @Holly, good to know I can still surprise even a longtime listener like you!

	10:10pm coelacanth: i obviously missed an historic event.
	10:10pm molton boron: the king and the chorus girl bit was epic
	10:10pm john: ...and you're just the guy to do it!

	10:29pm V Priceless: Hey Evan! New Ubu rockin!
	10:29pm Stevel: Wow. New Ubu. Not bad, even.
	10:31pm Stevel: Michael Shelley is everywhere. He is everything.
	10:47pm Fuzzy: Good news guys -- just signed Christopher Walken to play Ben Orr in my soon-to-be-released biography about The Cars: "Let's Go!" See ya at the Palm D'Or!
	10:48pm efd: haha, I'm only a little disappointed because I thought you were going to say you signed him to make a Co*Star record!
	10:50pm Fuzzy: Maybe if I throw in a gold watch -- he might go for that.
	10:52pm Fuzzy: Naw, for reals: I was just jamming on some old Midnight Special Cars videos on the Youtube, and Walken could totally pull it off!
	10:52pm pacific standard simon: Just tuned in -- what the hell kinda weirdo show IS this? ;)
	10:53pm efd: why I think it's an excellent weirdo show!
	10:54pm Holly in NC: Hi @pss!
	10:54pm efd: Fuzzy, I can totally see Christopher Walken as Ben Orr!
	10:54pm Fuzzy: When You Dance, You Can Really Love! Glad I rememberered to tune in!
	10:54pm pacific standard simon: Sounds that way, yes.
	10:55pm pacific standard simon: Hi Holly -- I finally got my WFMU cook book! It's so wonderful.
	10:55pm Fuzzy: Absolutely, efd -- I'm not joking!
	10:56pm Fuzzy: Richard Belzer as Ric -- what sayeth you?
	10:57pm Stevel: Belzer as Ric=Golden Globe.
	10:57pm pacific standard simon: That's good -- but Todd Rundgren did a pretty good job in The New Cars, too.
	11:00pm Holly in NC: @pss - Do tell! Tonight I had some super fresh & cheap bluefish, sauteed in olive oil w garlic, capers, olives, lemon & oregano, finished with gin. Yummy.
	11:05pm Fuzzy: Excellent! Play it now!
	11:06pm Callieflower: I feel like I need to make Evan's giveaway jingle my ringtone
	11:07pm pacific standard simon: You're hired as my personal cook when I get rich, Holly (I can't cook EVERY night!) Just had pesto and noodles tonight, but tomorrow I'm cooking lamb steaks and carrots glazed with orange and ginger. Maria Muldaur is playing on my island in a couple of weeks!
	11:11pm daveB from Oakland: Time has come today!
	11:12pm coelacanth: Sweet!
	11:12pm Holly in NC: Yay dead moon!
	11:12pm Fuzzy: My soul's been psychodelicized!
	11:13pm pacific standard simon: Any other covers of this song besides The Ramones?
	11:14pm Fuzzy: Chambers Bros. is scarier.
	11:14pm pacific standard simon: I think Hawkwind could have totally killed with this song.
	11:18pm Fuzzy: n!
	11:21pm daveB from Oakland: Give me an N! Give me an E! Give me a W! Give me a P! ...
	11:25pm dB from Oakland: "Rüdiger Lorenz ... was a German pharmacist and synthesist known for his large collection of analog synthesizers and his prolific output of albums featuring them" en.wikipedia.org...
	11:27pm fleep: Perhaps the pharmacizing helped with the synthesizing.
	11:28pm dB from Oakland: @fleep ... indeed. Ted Leo can't be the only pharmacist in the music game.
	11:28pm Fuzzy: Paging Dr. Robert...
	11:31pm pacific standard simon: Owsley "Bear" Stanley
	11:35pm Holly in NC: So glad Omnivore's reissuing GT.
	11:36pm Santos L Halper: Thanks for playing GT efd, and thanks to Holly for the tip a few weeks ago. It's a really nice release, and the rest will of course be even better!
	11:37pm pacific standard simon: Owsley is one of my heroes, despite his stupid ideas about diet, which have much in common with those of Hasil Adkins.
	11:44pm daveB from Oakland: Owsley and Adkins could've been a great collaboration (Is the Adkins diet anything like the Atkins diet? ... don't mind me, I'm just free-associating).
	11:44pm Fuzzy: No More Hot Dogs!
	11:47pm Fuzzy: Dude made a whole album about chicken!
	11:48pm pacific standard simon: Pretty much, daveB -- all animal protein, all the time. Vegetables are poison!
	11:49pm Fuzzy: A strict diet of commodity meat.
	11:49pm pacific standard simon: cliff hillis sounds like George Harrison!
	11:54pm pacific standard simon: Never thought I'd hear that name again in this life...
	11:55pm P-90: Bob joins the Disco Generation. Or does the best he can with it.
	11:57pm Fuzzy: Well dress me in a sleeveless down vest and call me Dorothy Hammill -- this is some different Music to watch girls by!
	11:58pm john: Any day that ends with Disco Tex and the Sex-O-Lettes is almost certainly better than originally assumed.
	11:58pm efd: and the Pirates won to boot!
	11:58pm pacific standard simon: Sometimes Evan's singles collection scares me.
	11:59pm john: I was prepared to be too polite to mention that. But since you bring it up….Raise the jolly roger!
	12:00am Fuzzy: How 'bout them Red Sox?
	12:00am pacific standard simon: The Giants and The Pirates are going to meet in a one game wild card playoff, and we are going to come to blows.
	12:00am Callieflower: I like dreamin too, but I don't sing about it
	12:01am coelacanth: Thanks, Evan!
