	3:02pm common: happy friday billy jam and all!
	3:04pm Grouse: was that the opening monologue from the HBO show "the newsroom"?
	3:04pm fred: Good afternoon Billy and all listeners. I'm sick at home instead of at a show, I'm sure this show will heal me in time to go see Yair Yona (listener and skilled musician) tomorrow
	👻 3:05pm chris: Yo, Billy Jam, loop, common, Grouse, fred, All! Happy Friday, Billy Jam Day!
	👻 3:06pm chris: you've come to the right place for fast healing, fred!
	3:06pm Cecile: fred, I got the Upper Midwest boxed set. It is wonderful, and I've only gotten thru disc 1
	3:08pm loop skywalker: Cecile...i remembered about you wanting to go back to the 60s...so im playing a couple of 60s in the mix tonight :)
	3:08pm Cecile: and please feel better!
	3:08pm TheRapperWithNoName: Big Ups Billy Jam, finally catchin the show live from the start for the first time in a few weeks. Grab the dank and do it bigly
	3:10pm loop skywalker: get well soon Fred
	👻 3:11pm Ken From Hyde Park: Wait, what? There's going to be some Ken Freedman material on today's show?
	3:13pm spidermank: Happy Jam time everyone , lets float the good vibes, its friday for funks sake.
	👻 3:13pm chris: Shomari Smith - Souls of Mischief Documentary - www.amoeba.com...
	3:14pm fred: @Cecile: I'm glad you like it. I'm deep into it these days, listening while reading the "liner notes" on my way to work. Great stories and pictures, it's a world I never knew existed
	3:15pm loop skywalker: Hey Spidermank...well said..lets float :)
	3:17pm Cecile: My husband figures that world disappeared right after WW2. I'm still going to bring it up so his parents can see if they knew any of the people - they are in their 90s!
	3:18pm ALF of Hip Hop Slam: Hey there everyone?! It's Friday! Aww yeaaaah!
	3:21pm Cecile: Shomari, any plans to air it in Minneapolis?
	3:21pm spidermank: eyup loop , lookin forward to your set tonite, Billy Jam summer featured DJ specials have been monumental , you guys bring it on everytime and thats a wikkid big deal booomph.
	3:21pm TheRapperWithNoName: I heard Souls of Mischief for the first time thanks to Pat Channita's video part in an early 411 skate video.
	3:21pm fred: @Cecile: It may be gone, but it left traces. I've been remembering some of your comments about Finnish communities while reading about them, for instance
	3:22pm Cecile: that's true, Fred. And you can still run into a kantele recital here and there up north.
	3:22pm ADA: Peace, that was a great interview! Excited to see the film when it comes out
	3:23pm Īke: \/\/\/\/
	3:23pm ALF of Hip Hop Slam: I thank Stinke wholeheartedly for starting experience into underground hip hop. I was in college and was wondering what happened to Hiero and stumbled across the old Hiero site back in 96', 97'
	3:34pm Donte P: this is classic shit here!
	3:38pm loop skywalker: one of the greatest hip hop rekkids ever
	3:39pm Cecile: I didn't remember seeing the video until I just looked at it. Now it comes back! I thought it was so cool that a rap group would be on a wild kind of beach in their video.
	3:41pm Mike East: drop dem beats! Whaddup, Billy
	3:41pm Cecile: awww
	3:44pm Cecile: Shomari, maybe the 5th Element record store would be interested. And DEFINITELY contact the Sound Unseen film festival in MPLS. www.soundunseen.com
	3:45pm loop skywalker: i cant remember who i shared my cigarettes with at a nottingham gig from the Hieroglyphics
	3:49pm spidermank: uplifting , the whole thing.
	3:49pm Golde: I am wondering if anyone can help me. I have some really precious records and want to ensure they are cleaned and cared for in the best possible way. They are one of a kind. It would mean the world to me if someone could recommend someone I can turn to, preferably in the Manhattan area, for help.
	3:51pm ALF of Hip Hop Slam: This is a TIGHT interview Billy! Looking forward to seeing Shomari's work! :-)
	3:52pm Grouse: the Paris thing wasn't a sample I was curious about. it sounded like he was quoting this Jeff Daniels speech verbatim: www.youtube.com...
	👻 3:52pm chris: Golde, I bet Fabio and the crew at Earwax Records (Williamsburg North) have some excellent advice - www.yelp.com...
	3:53pm spidermank: @Golde , Wood glue is great for shiftin shit, 8) . but for expert care someone here will sort you out I am sure , WFMU is a vinyl castle
	3:55pm Cecile: also, their treatment of women was glossed over.
	3:59pm Golde: Thank you both for the kind words and suggestions! It would be a great shame if these recordings were let go...
	4:01pm Golde: hahahaha!! You're funny, B!!
	4:02pm Carmichael: Heya Billy boyo! @Fred: tell Yair hello from all of us!
	4:02pm Cecile: yes! say hi to Yair!
	4:04pm Billy Jam: hey Carmichael and all else tuned in today …..appreciate it…..and hope u guys don't mind a fair amount of talking this and next week -
	4:04pm Mike East: @Golde - you could also reach out to MAC of Antique phonograph hour...those cylinders require lots of TLC for sure
	4:04pm loop skywalker: its all educational Billy :)
	4:08pm fred: I will! Pierre said he'd be there, so Alessia might be there too. That could make the quorum for a listener meet-up
	4:09pm SeanG: yeah boooyeeeeeee
	4:12pm Cecile: Earth people, I get the job done. I work.
	4:12pm Billy Jam: hey Sean G, hey Fred - sorry u r sick,,,,,, wot up Spidermank? - Loop posted pic online this morning of the 3 of us at your spot in Manchester during the remote WFMU broadcast earlier this year -
	4:15pm Donte P: love your show.....real hiphop......will be sure to listen in regularly
	4:16pm loop skywalker: i had to get that picture from spidermank....i lost mine on my old facebook account
	4:21pm ALF of Hip Hop Slam: That alarm clock! Hahah! I think it's still at my mom's house somewhere.
	4:22pm spidermank: Eyup Billy I have been bashing away on the drums along with your show , just got back to comments , ace photo, awwman Billy meeting you and loop and doing that show was epic for me , so stoked you sorted it geeza . I am good man thanks , laying shitloads of choons down whenever I can grab the time. Thanks for your energy Billy , you make wonderfull shit happen
	4:23pm Billy Jam: @ALF - hah hah - hey ALF can u give a quick mention of what to expect in next week's megamix? TNX
	4:24pm spidermank: expect love genius at work, happens everytime , class.
	4:26pm Mike East: @spidermank - I've been jammin' guitar w/ billy jam...we should start a band, yeah?
	4:28pm loop skywalker: ive been rockin the air turntables along the guitar from Mike and Drums from spidermank
	4:30pm spidermank: hahah I am up for it , even though as you know being in a band is more complicated than a NASA expedition I am still up for it
	4:31pm loop skywalker: i heard the complete mega mix this morning...its the best turntable collaboration ive done.....mind blown!
	4:33pm ADA: It was an honor working on the mix with those 2, for my set I used strictly Hip Hop Slam records in homage of Billy Jam's historic label... all vinyl. And the Intro is a joint skratch collab that came out so dope you should consider using it as your official intro to this show... :)
	4:34pm spodiodi: We're listening to a commercial commercial. Times change.
	4:34pm spodiodi: How much goes to the IDF?
	4:36pm loop skywalker: ADA the intro is awesome...brilliant choice of vocal
	4:36pm steve: this is great... been waiting for a good explanation of Audience Engine
	4:37pm spidermank: DJ ALF, DJ ADA and DJ loop skywalker a trinity of sanity , self explanitary skillz n thrillz, respect. great interview Kimzilla cheers .Biggups for Ken (wish he was prez of the NWO)
	👻 4:38pm chris: spodiodi, its actually a non-commercial non-commercial. this is the revolution. dig it.
	4:39pm Īke: Yeah, @Steve, very cool. Ken also appeared on a Radio Survivor podcast but I like this interview more.
	4:40pm loop skywalker: audience engine explained brilliantly
	4:41pm SiHV: Trump: Republican nominee. Ken: Democratic nominee. Let's go.
	4:42pm Mike East: I think people SHOULD give up their FB and twitter for fmu. I have neither, but I'm here.
	4:42pm spodiodi: The commercial, non-open-source hosting service, is non-commercial, and revolutionary? How's that? The software sounds interesting, but the commercial hosting service sounds kinda... :\
	4:42pm marc: Flea circus should be the title of the Republican campaign for President
	4:44pm Cecile: Loved that Flea Circus record cover
	👻 4:47pm chris: spodiodi, OSS often relies on services to raise money to support itself... don't confuse making money to support a cause with putting profit in peoples' pockets, right? peace, man.
	4:48pm ADA: WFMU should be syndicated like NPR... instead of NPR! Free these airwaves, they are locked up and suffering!
	4:49pm spodiodi: Cris, I'm aware. I'm not confused, I'm suspicious. And there's a larger issue... was hoping you'd one day take it on. Sorry to hear about your pending hiatus (for selfish reasons.) On a personal note: hope it all goes really well for ya.
	4:50pm spodiodi: What kind of a license are they using? I'll go look.
	4:51pm cosmickitty: I finally made it!!!! Happy Billy Jam Friday
	4:52pm ALF of Hip Hop Slam: So the mix next week will combine ALL the styles of ADA, Loop, and I in one big rigamarole. There will be a portion of the mix that will pay homage to an Indie label that paved the way for many artists back in the day. There will also be a section of the mix that will touch on current events. All three of us had fun contributing to this mix and I hope you all will enjoy it! :-)
	👻 4:53pm chris: i'm just a lowly listener, mate. not affiliated with FMU, beyond sending as much money their way as i can to keep shows like Billy Jam's PTNOTR on the air.
	4:54pm spodiodi: Lots of slick marketing found, but no license information. Ah sorry, had you confused, chris.
	4:55pm ALF of Hip Hop Slam: "It's 4:19!" LOL! www.ebay.com...
	4:59pm TheRapperWithNoName: 3 hours of Billy Jam is right.
	5:00pm spodiodi: Billy Jam makes each and every Friday the start of a three-day weekend. Glorious.
	5:03pm steve: spodiodi - Ken seems to respond to most reasonable email in a couple days... just ask him. publicly announcing the software license may not be the highest priority for a huge project that's still months away from launch and barely public to begin with. but if its something people want to know he'd probably appreciate the feedback, and also tell you...
	5:04pm ALF of Hip Hop Slam: DAAAAAMNNNNN!! Look at Loop's playlist! :-)
	5:05pm ADA: crazy LOOP, going in!
	5:06pm loop skywalker: theres a ton of drumming on the pads this week
	5:09pm ALF of Hip Hop Slam: NICE Loop!
	👻 5:12pm chris: Streets! Yeah, Loop! This is so sick.
	5:13pm loop skywalker: cheers Chris :)
	5:13pm Donte P: great mix Loop
	5:14pm loop skywalker: Cheers Donte P
	5:14pm spodiodi: Cant.Stop.Moving.To.DaBeat
	👻 5:15pm chris: Is this Ty in the Next men?
	5:16pm loop skywalker: Spodiodi...keep moving.....Chris ...yep..that was TY mate.
	👻 5:16pm chris: lol, nope i guess not. hehehehe
	👻 5:16pm chris: oh snap!
	5:18pm spodiodi: Disco Devil!
	5:19pm spidermank: O h F u c k
	5:23pm spidermank: grooved my mankster mind loop , cant stop head boppin
	👻 5:23pm chris: off. the. chain. sik.
	5:24pm ALF of Hip Hop Slam: <APPLAUSE>
	5:25pm loop skywalker: thank you soooooo much for having me this summer and thanks to everyone who has listened ....it spurs me on to keep going...glad you dug it spidermank.
	5:26pm spodiodi: E-40!
	5:26pm Billy Jam: that drop out was me
	5:26pm Billy Jam: oops
	5:28pm Grouse: sorry for that second or 2 of dead air. followed by 5 seconds of dearborn drone
	5:28pm loop skywalker: i thought it was Bradley..loop junior stealing all the wifi again :)
	5:29pm Grouse: my backup: www.discogs.com...
	5:29pm spodiodi: Get it E-40
	5:30pm spidermank: that was quality dead air
	5:31pm quinn: yeah i thought it was intentional. sickest dead air i've ever heard.
	5:38pm Billy Jam: so Bas-One called at 2;28pm (local Oakland time) to say he was at Fruitvale BART and if a train came in two minutes that he'd hop on it……that's cutting it close….but he might make it…..and if not I got the WAV recorder running so will record and playback next week in NJ @ WFM U
	👻 5:38pm chris: this is pretty chill, this DJ Smash
	5:39pm Grouse: Is that really Irwin? It sounded like Kenny G!
	5:42pm Billy Jam: U R correct….got them both on same sample - and always mixed them up
	5:44pm spidermank: can we insta_crowd source a cab for Bas-One ? @chris ,agreed , that DJ Smash choon deep chilled a chunk from off me
	5:44pm Grouse: I think those two have swapped slots before to mess with people.
	5:46pm Billy Jam: @Grouse - when I first read your comment I misread it as "those two have swapped souls"
	5:47pm spodiodi: That's the Irish in ya talkin'
	5:50pm Grouse: ha!
	5:50pm loop skywalker: havent heard this eric b track for years...so many great memories from that era...hidded gem this track...used to be the track everyone skipped in my circle of friends but i was like...yo...keep that mother fucker on.
	5:55pm spidermank: ace show as always Billy cheers man and am humbled for the MC Tunes feat Dewiz & The Microphoness , respect Billy , fucking quality every feckin time ... brilliant
	👻 5:57pm chris: thanks, Billy Jam! thanks, Grouse! thanks, Loop! peace!
