Listener comments!
	12:09am Ken From Hyde Park: Therese, Bringer of Happiness! How are you doing tonight?
	12:10am Carmichael: Heya Therese. So the Carpenters were Klaatu? I thought Klaatu was a Beatles side project ....
	12:12am Matt from Springfield: Nick Lowe, this rocks! Hiya Therese and everyone!
	12:14am Carmichael: This Bangles song also rocks. Where you goin with that UB40 in your hand?
	12:15am famous original italianicewolf: Helllooo
	12:16am Matt from Springfield: @Carm: The "UB40" [Unemployment Benefits form 40] that the band named themselves after? Wow, I was just about to joke that since Thatcher's day a lot of people in Liverpool can do nothing the rest of their lives - I caught the subtext and didn't even know it!
	12:17am Carmichael: You got it, Matt!
	12:18am Matt from Springfield: Sweet, Carm! That can be rare on a first listen to me! Hi italianicewolf! Sounds refreshing on a month like this.
	12:19am coelacanth: what? the carpenters covered klaatu?
	12:19am coelacanth: ...and, hello.
	12:20am coelacanth: is this the weird covers show?!
	12:22am Matt from Springfield: John Sebastian x Kate Bush's "Coffee Homeground" = THIS! :D
	12:22am Bob in DC and/or Virginia: Good morning, Therese and all Thereseans around the world! The Julie Ruin song is especially appropriate -- Sunday was the 25th anniversary of Ms. Hanna holding the first official meeting of Riot Grrrl in an activist group home in Arlington, Virginia (according to Sara Marcus' book Girls to the Front). The house has since been replaced by a much more expensive one.
	12:23am JakeGould: “Summer in the City” yeeesh. Hot.
	12:23am Matt from Springfield: Hi coela! Actually I first heard the Carpenters version, Therese even had a premium "We Are Your Friends" based on it a few years ago. Hi Bob! Jake!
	12:26am coelacanth: hey Matt! ...that premium sounds good.
	12:28am Carmichael: King Kahn is THE MAN!
	12:30am coelacanth: hahaha!
	12:30am Matt from Springfield: Karaoke Follies with Therese and Joe McG!
	12:31am Carmichael: Could be worse. You could have chosen MacArthur Park.
	12:32am Matt from Springfield: I wonder if they cut out the long instro breaks in the Smiths' "How Soon Is Now?" - if they don't I want to interpolate "Rainy Days and Mondays" into the instro fadeout. I consider that a spiritual ancestor to "How Soon Is Now".
	12:33am famous original italianicewolf: Follies like Ziegfeld? Or the Sondheim musical?
	12:33am Therese: I was thinking Ziegfeld, but Sondheim would work too!
	12:34am Matt from Springfield: @Carm: I imagine performing that at karaoke like SCTV's "Mel's Rock Pile" :) www.youtube.com...
	12:36am Ken From Hyde Park: Mar 30, 1867, the US signs a treaty with Russia to purchase Alaska. It became known as Seward's Folly.
	12:38am Matt from Springfield: Now known, as Sarah's Folly.
	12:39am Matt from Springfield: GDW - one of the best tracks of Rumours.
	12:45am coelacanth: definitely, Matt.
	12:47am coelacanth: ...one of the 5 songs on that album that i really care about. (i like the previous album much more.)
	12:48am JakeGould: When was the last political “Folly?” It could have been “H. Ross Perot’s Folly” when he ran in the 1990s.
	12:49am coelacanth: i know when the next one is...
	12:50am JakeGould: Dude, Trump is a candidate and will be on the ballot. H. Ross Perot was a clown and didn’t get far. But anyway…
	12:50am Matt from Springfield: There have been other disaster campaigns since then (the wretched Trump), but none have been as light, with singing and dancing since Perot and Stockdale's "follies"...
	12:52am JakeGould: Just getting used to the idea the new DNC chair for the convention is named Fudge. Who is named Fudge?
	12:52am coelacanth: if it's either trump or clinton it will be a folly; but then, it already IS one.
	12:56am Matt from Springfield: @Jake: I'm guessing Rep. Marcia Fudge? I've heard of her before. She's from outside Cleveland, wonder if Dave Hill knows her! Then again, would it really hurt to nominate Judy Blume as the convention chair?
	12:57am JakeGould: “Who doesn’t love Fudge!” (Paid for by the Committee to Elect Marcia Fudge to Congress)
	12:58am Matt from Springfield: The Committee's numbers are Fudged a little...but oh so delicious!
	1:04am Matt from Springfield: Seize away, Dave!
	1:08am Ken From Hyde Park: D Generation popped in on Glen Jones this afternoon, in the final hour. www.wfmu.org...
	1:16am Marc15: Karoke choice: Godzilla vs. Martin Luther King?
	1:18am Marc15: Is Martha Fudge the wife of Cornelius Fudge, the Minister of Magic?
	1:36am P-90: G'morning Therese and all. Arriving here better late than never. I'll just half to make do with the last half.
	1:39am coelacanth: you can have my spot, P-90. i need to check out. Thank you Therese! g'night y'all.
	1:39am ! I X Key !: !
	1:39am coelacanth: ...oh that was sneaky.
	1:41am coelacanth: i have an also excellent version of this by the skids. 'seems hard to find now.
	1:42am Ken From Hyde Park: Wow...first time I've encountered Julie's sign-off music.
	1:44am coelacanth: damn, it wasn't the skids. who covered this? anyone? i have it on a mix tape someone gave me in the 80s, but it's in the car.
	1:47am coelacanth: alright i'm glad i heard Syd Barrett last. good night.
	1:47am Ken From Hyde Park: Catch you later, coel!
	1:54am JakeGould: To be fair we once had a Surgeon General named C. Everett Koop. So who knows!
	2:17am JakeGould: It’s like how taller people die sooner than short people… The same short people who have no reason to live! MAKES YOU THINK!
	2:22am steve portland: yeah that may make me think but not v. hard
	2:23am steve portland: hey jk thats a real brain teaser bro
	2:40am BEAVO: A paternoster is an Eastern European open elevator that moves continuously.
	2:40am BEAVO: And is dangerous
