Listener comments!
	9:04pm herb.nyc: Hi EFD & all. Just bk from Tampon Sanders rally. Too crowded so we dinner'd instead. But not before spotting Clay Pigeon, intro'ng ourselves, & then getting interviewed. Wotta nice man, but we all knew that already. --Oh wait, terrific first song as always, but we all knew that already.
	9:07pm melinda: herb I was wondering if Clay was there interviewing when I heard on SSD there was a giant rally in Washington Sq. Park. Cool that you met him in such a large crowd! Hi efd!
	9:13pm Marc Francis: This song could have been written today....
	9:15pm JakeGould: Hey folks! Just got over the crazy flu. So vote for me as being the most honest, flu free, 6+ day flu survivor ever!
	9:15pm efd: hey everyone! Thanks for tuning in tonight - nice to see you all!
	9:17pm herb.nyc: Next time I meet Clay P, I'll intro myself again and ask "are you Clay Pigeon?". He'll say yes and I go "well this summons is for you! You have been served!".
	9:18pm Loretta: hi Evan ~ good eve to all!
	9:19pm herb.nyc: Wait, I bet JakeG was intimate w Andy Breckman. For don't Andy have the flu now? Case closed!
	9:20pm JakeGould: @herb.nyc: I went to jury duty last Monday. Then the following Thursday it kicked in. Then I was sick from Thursday to Tuesday morning on the day I had to go back to jury duty. So I think the answer is no…
	9:21pm jon: hi efd. hi funky listeners. the 70s block is always amazing
	9:22pm JakeGould: Unless Andy Breckman was a busty, flop-sweat covered hispanic woman in a crop top who sat near me and leaned in and coughed to talk about how the whole system is garbage. Then perhaps I was wishing 1 foot of that person.
	9:25pm JakeGould: I meant to say, “Then perhaps I was WITHIN 1 foot of that person.”
	9:26pm herb.nyc: Glad yr better, JakeG
	9:29pm dale: i wish the tampon party was a real thing.
	9:32pm JakeGould: @herb.nyc: Thanks! I’m strong, can sleep without fever dreams or waking un in pain for the first time in 6+ days and my jury duty case settled out of court! Not to mention someone tossed out 34+ cast iron bottle openers and I found them. Life is good! www.instagram.com...
	9:33pm JakeGould: Frodis = “Frod-ee”?
	9:34pm JakeGould: Maybe? I don’t know. Fro-DIS!!!
	9:36pm JakeGould: Q: What do you call it when someone disrespects your afro? A: You call it a… Fro-Dis!
	9:41pm Cooh John: JakeGould, I am calling a tow truck to haul that joke away.
	9:42pm JakeGould: WhyyouIoughta!!!
	9:47pm melinda: I liked the Nude Party.
	9:51pm efd: @melinda I've played both sides of that Nude Party single and they're both good!
	10:03pm herb.nyc: Eyelids are GBV-related?
	10:03pm herb.nyc: Free GBV show, July 9 nyc
	10:03pm Figgsrock: Oh wow, Starcub! Haven't heard that since I played it the year it came out on the alt show at the active rock station I worked at.
	10:06pm coelacanth: greetings efd and Funkies
	10:08pm efd: ha! I should've known that if anyone would know that Starclub song it would be you, @Figgsrock! It's so great!
	10:08pm efd: "Let Your Hair Down" is another good track on that Starclub album.
	10:15pm Stevel: Jake: Those bottle openers might be the answer to your prayers, or fever dreams, perhaps.
	10:23pm ἶkε: Woah, I didn't Primal Scream had that in them. Holy shmow.
	10:25pm herb.nyc: TacocaT were great last..
	10:25pm herb.nyc: ..nite at Mercury Lounge
	10:29pm JakeGould: FWIW, I attempted to use one of the bottle openers to actually open a bottle… It was a horrible experience… Hey Ike! do you need a crappy bottle opener? Check the link above. Just take the B63 over to my place and I can hook you up.
	10:32pm efd: cast iron, though! What could go wrong?
	10:34pm JakeGould: @efd: Nothing better than watching the paint on the opener chip off right when I am using the thing to do what it’s designed to do: Add much leaded lead and iron to my newly opened drink.
	10:35pm Stevel: Your bottle openers aren't crappy, they're 'distressed'. You're welcome.
	10:37pm JakeGould: I might just carry 4 of them at a time in my out and about backpack so I can give them out as gifts. Like if someone I don’t like corners me at an even I can say, “Wait! I have a gift for you!” and give them one and say, “You really made an impression on me. Here’s a heavy bottle opener. Enjoy!”
	10:40pm JakeGould: FWIW, they apparently retail for $20 at those stores that sell overpriced crap to those with extra money and no taste. www.instagram.com...
	10:43pm chris_in_space: @JakeGould, you've got another IG follower here.
	10:44pm Stevel: Yes, the whole "bottle opener" ruse was obviously a bald and successful attempt to garner social media followers (and I haven't even heard the fog horn yet.)
	10:48pm chris_in_space: Speaking of Clay Pigeon, this Tow-Away Zone sounds like a track he'd play. Gotta say that I love his show, especially during campaign season. ION, hi all. It's great to be here as usual on a Wednesday night with the FUNK!
	11:07pm JakeGould: Drone?
	11:09pm Bree: Clay fan and Evan fan here!
	11:15pm efd: Hi Bree, happy to be in such exalted company!
	11:23pm coelacanth: good to hear this diamond dogs track.
	11:24pm efd: glad you enjoyed it, coel!

	11:29pm efd: Hi AS! Yeah, it's an efd classic!
	11:31pm AS from MP: whenever it shuffles on, I have to hit the repeat button. And happy mid-week to ya, Evan.

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!
