Listener comments!
	9:02pm Sean in Bristol, UK: Hi Irene, Happy Holidays, hello one and all
	9:03pm Listener Robert: I like the tree, but who/what is KeepTru?
	9:04pm redkayak: Happy holidays & solstice all :)
	9:06pm Irene Trudel: Hi Sean, Robert and redkayak! Welcome to this Christmassy-thingy. Robert, KeepTru is a combination of my husband's any my last names (Keepnews, Trudel). Kind of perfect, I must say!
	9:06pm redkayak: Nice to be listening... I was teaching a class on Tuesday nights this last term...
	🥁 9:08pm Sean in Bristol UK: Love The Mets ornaments on the tree, Irene
	9:11pm Irene Trudel: Glad you're now free to listen, redkayak! Sean, those ornaments are a mainstay for us. Not pictured, our Santa on a Mets rocking horse.
	9:16pm redkayak: I was lucky: had good students this term. The 16 weeks went by pretty quick this time around...
	🥁 9:32pm Sean in Bristol UK: A wonderful set, thank you, Irene
	9:42pm JakeGould: Happy Festivus!
	9:54pm slugluv1313: <3 Laura <3
	9:57pm IFisher: Charmed by the selections, Irene. Laura Nyro passeth all understanding, bloweth my mind Happy Festivus Everyone!
	🥁 9:58pm Sean in Bristol UK: The Laura Nyro track was a thing of beauty
	🥁 10:05pm Sean in Bristol UK: Irene, really wanted to stay with you until 5 am but starting to fade a bit so will catch the rest of the show on archive. Have a cracking Yuletide.
	10:06pm Listener Robert: Do the cats climb into & up the KeepTru tree & stalk the ornaments, as I've seen elsewhere? I've known housebroken dogs to make a sissy on a Xmas tree, like, "I must be outside, it's a tree." They think of the ornaments as fruit too.
	10:07pm Irene Trudel: Totally understood. Pleasant dreams, Sean!
	10:10pm Irene Trudel: Robert, surprisingly they don't anymore. I used to tack the tree to the window with fishing line. My kitties are getting a bit older (and one of them is doing quite poorly at the moment). They haven't even ventured underneath it yet. But they do love the smell.
	10:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: Catnip-filled ornaments would be either a great idea or a terrible idea. I'm not sure which yet.
	10:15pm coelacanth: greetings Irene and others sorry to ave missed Laura Nyro, but i think it's high time i pull the album out anyway.
	10:18pm Irene Trudel: Ken, I don't think that's a good idea. Best not to attract too much feline attention to the tree. I've taken to hanging non-breakable ornaments near the bottom.
	10:20pm Irene Trudel: Yes, coelacanth, Christmas and the Beads of Sweat has some gorgeous tunes.
	10:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bert b. 3rd Nov. like me. Just sayin'.
	10:23pm shanghi1: Happy Holidays Irene. Thank you for this.
	10:32pm slugluv1313: Happy Holidays, Irene! my kitties and i send healing vibes to your little one -- hoping she (or he) is feeling better soon <3
	10:33pm Irene Trudel: Cool, Rev. Rabbit! Bert wasone of my favorite guitarists, as was John Renbourn.
	10:35pm JakeGould: Lovely music box.
	10:41pm JakeGould: Amazon Smile link for WFMU (Auricle Communications). smile.amazon.com...
	10:42pm Irene Trudel: Thanks for both, Jake!

	11:15pm Van in DC: Greatest Xmas song of all time by her KaTeness, you know. Just saying.
	11:19pm Van in DC: Today walking along the National Mall, an enormous hawk in a tree. An unsuspecting squirrel going up the trunk. Oops. The hawk took notice....so did Mr. Squirrel. It was quite a hilarious back and forth between them for a while. Squirrel won.

	11:38pm Irene Trudel: Yikes, Ken, that sounds positively painful!
	11:39pm Van in DC: Holiday depression is real. Never before have I had it so bad. This show has helped, just in the 40 minutes I've been privileged to hear. Thank you Irene.

Mon. Nov 25th, Noon - 3pm: Bipolar Explorer (More info...)
With the release of their 12th album, Bipolar Explorer continues their beautiful tradition of dream-pop songs and landscapes. "Memories of the Sky" was in part inspired by a Paris exhibition of the works of Louis Janmot, and the reoccurring imagery of protective angels. Frontman Michael Wells, along with Vocalist /Keyboardist Sylvia Solanis visiting from France, recorded a gorgeous live set for Irene.
