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!

February 15, 2017: Don't tell my cats it's yet another salute to the WKC Dog Show! (and another fruitless Dog Show announcer audition)

	9:22pm efd: yeah I missed a "many" there but didn't want to go back. My bad.
	9:23pm Danne D: still convinced Evan will make it to the announcer's microphone at the Garden some day!
	9:23pm Uncle Michael: In fairness, corgis don't know they're small.
	9:25pm Folsom: @efd Do you agree the Boston Terrier got screwed this year?
	9:25pm Joe stalvey: Terriers not the only squareheads in Boston.
	9:26pm BriJet: Hi!!!!
	9:26pm Danne D: knew it had to be Boston :)

	9:33pm JakeGould: Woof!

	9:34pm Loretta: wow !!! what a beautiful dog.....
	9:37pm pantz: English Golden Labs are the best and deserve a song.
	9:39pm Danne D: Whippet. Good!! :)
	9:40pm pantz: I'm thinking a Human League or Blur song.
	9:40pm Uncle Michael: Very few people know that Chihuahuas were bred by cross breeding whippets and mosquitos.
	9:41pm cheri: I just love little dogs they're so cute, does anyone agree?
	9:41pm efd: gonna have to table that golden lab song for next year, pantz. "Whip It" is the traditional closing song of the salute to the dog show.
	9:41pm Fuzzy: Such hi-hat!
	9:42pm herb.nyc: Spk'ng of Devo, I watched DVD of 1982(?) "urgh, a music war", for first time. XTC doing "respectable street" was great.
	9:43pm efd: MY SHOW MY RULES, Fuz-- oh oh, you mean on the Devo track. Never mind.
	9:43pm Figgsrock: This was so fun EFD.
	9:43pm quietlyartistic: @efd Who did your title track?

	9:51pm Uncle Michael: You didn't bring a lot of little plastic bags into the studio for cleanup tonight, EFD?
	9:52pm efd: ha! Maybe I should have.
	9:52pm herb.nyc: Sorry if I've posted this before, and I meant to post this on Dave Hill's show: Author Alex Shakar had this in a novel, "the savage girl ", paraphrased, "people get dogs to receive the love that their children never give them. People get cats to give the love that they can't show to their parents."
	9:54pm Uncle Michael: A melancholy song built around a Fawlty Towers reference. That's good.
	9:57pm cheri: well efd I got to take my leave, but again that was a great dog set, thanks evan!
	9:57pm Joe stalvey: Would be even better if it it isn't an FT reference. Kismet.
	10:02pm Figgsrock: That recent Pretenders album is shockingly solid.
	10:02pm Danne D: :) Velocity Girl

	10:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bawstin Rawk.
	10:08pm Power Papi: 'When Things Go Wrong " always reminds me of my ex. She would play it on her guitar...
	10:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...from an L.A. girl - hah...
	10:11pm quietlyartistic: 1980
	10:12pm Uncle Michael: Duane Eddy plays on the Pretenders record?
	10:12pm Ken From Hyde Park: Good evening. I hope Kimzilla cleaned up all the dog doo in the WFMU hallway. The bikini girls had a dog show earlier and one of them went rogue.
	10:13pm Uncle Michael: Ooh, this Feelies is good.
	10:14pm efd: @quietlyartistic thanks, I found it listed as 1979 but either way later than I thought!
	10:15pm Uncle Michael: Looks like '79 is correct.
	10:16pm efd: @UM he does, yes, not sure on which tracks. (probably says in the booklet which I didn't look at) @KFHP there's a bit of an aroma left behind, but otherwise all good!
	10:17pm Uncle Michael: Duane Eddy: older than my dad.
	10:18pm Hoboken Jack: The Nails had 36 more women.
	10:24pm efd: and the B-52s had 8 more than The Nails.
	10:25pm Hoboken Jack: Mind blown.
	10:28pm Julie M Brooklyn: Turtles! Classy.
	10:28pm Stevel: Needless to say, The Renegades required only five more.
	10:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...which was no more than BillHaley - but they all had to wait for the a-bomb...
	10:30pm Figgsrock: Flo + Eddie = Floedco.
	10:30pm Joe R.: The Flat Five covered that Turtles song when I saw them a month or so ago and it was fantastic!
	10:33pm melinda: I noticed Sweet Pea wasn't mentioned, too.
	10:36pm Hoboken Jack: BEDAZZLER TIME!! REJOICE!!
	10:40pm Roberto: The Bedazzler is this year's 13 Women.
	10:40pm Hoboken Jack: BEDAZZLER TIME(S) TWO!!!
	10:40pm quietlyartistic: doublin' down! feelin' good
	10:41pm osvi: Oh, thank god. My workout needed the second shot of The Bedazzler
	10:41pm Julie M Brooklyn: I dare you. Go again.
	10:42pm efd: @Roberto, you might be onto something there.
	10:42pm Figgsrock: 3 for 3?
	10:42pm Danne D: Amazed that that dopey Bedazzler lady from the apprentice doesnt have a cabinet post yet
	10:43pm efd: not saying never... but not tonight.
	10:43pm Danne D: okay so i watch a couple of the early seasons, so sue :shrug: - i knew someone on season 2 or 3
	10:47pm Stevel: The Cult never sounded bad to me.
	10:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& there's Cook & Moore's Satanic 'Bedazzled'...which might explain the more sinister Sabbath coda...
	10:59pm Bootsie: Lime Spiders "Save My Soul" is probably my fave.
	11:00pm Marc15: Play the Bedazzler a 3rd and 4th time
	11:03pm Stevel: Social media promotion portion is something I would fear to say on radio.
	11:03pm Danne D: GATOS!
	11:03pm Roberto: Would these perchance be feline residents?
	11:06pm efd: @Roberto mayyyyybeeeeee
	11:08pm Roberto: Those little buggers can be awfully demanding.
	11:09pm Julie M Brooklyn: My feline residents have released their claw grip on me for playing that, so thanks. Funny that i'm hyper aware of the dog show, but isn't there a cat show sometime around now and I can never remember when?
	11:11pm efd: one of the shows on earlier tonight mentioned there was a cat show next month, but not sure where or when exactly.
	11:21pm Julie M Brooklyn: Well, the one that's sitting on my lap right now is loving what's being played (even though we're back on a dog theme with Borzoi), and I'm feeling bad about rousting him, but it's beddy time for me and all cats in the house. Nice way to go. Thanks, efd!
	11:27pm Danne D: Signing off the chat now but will listen in the car. Thanks for a great show EFD :) Until next time Funk Friends!
	11:37pm efd: thanks for listening Danne and Julie!
	11:43pm Andrew S: the cancon is so much sweeter when its played because you like it instead of because you have to. It's condescending to the artists when its played because it has to be. It also used to cause complications on indie radio stations where some shows were world music or whatever. The limitations were annoying but i dont think they apply to community radio anymore or if they do its ignored
	11:54pm efd: @Andrew it always did strike me as kind of a double-edged sword... I can understand not wanting the Canadian airwaves to be overrun with US artists but it's not always as simple as it seems.
	11:57pm Andrew S: yep, you get it, it was a complicated issue and it had its purpose once upon a time. I think it has run its course now, though i havent listened to commercial radio in about 30 years so what do i know ;) Im always pleased by your inerest and knowledge of our humble doings up here though efd, you play more great canadian music than 99 percent of canadian radio stations do
	12:30pm Amanda: Hi efd! I'm enjoying catching up with this show today on the archive! Working dogs are indeed all large, I believe the Portuguese Water Dog is the smallest in the group. And please add my name to the list of Boston Terrier likers for this year's WKC show.
	10:42am joe: Hey is anybody still here.
