	9:28am Michele with One "L": What up ratchicks!!!! Come down here tomorrow!?
	9:28am Handy Haversack: @Michele, I took the liberty of passing along bday wishes to Bagpipe from you. Hope that's OK and that you didn't actually hope he had a bad pinball birthday party.
	9:29am Michele with One "L": @handy - did you guys do the pinball at sunshine?
	9:29am Walt: Fellow GA listener here reminding everyone that Smyrna is pronounced "Smur-na" rather than "Smear-na." Happy Marathon and pledge pledge pledge!
	9:30am johnzo: @steavo what do clicky stars actually do... how do I view what Ive clicky starred Im guessing not on the phone ap?
	9:30am ratchicks: @michele Can I catch a ride with you?
	9:30am Michele with One "L": I'm living in Jersey City for 2 weeks....
	9:31am Handy Haversack: @Michele -- yup! He had quite a time. And I had a couple of good games of Medieval Madness.
	9:31am johnzo: @steavo nevermind I just figured it out! wow Ive been clicky starrin a lot of songs I better head yet warning lest I run up against that 2k limit and lose everything Ive clicked for
	9:31am ratchicks: @michele oh yeaaa kk. I'll come out!
	9:31am johnzo: heed*
	9:31am John from Florham park: @Michele in other words no sleep for the marathon
	9:32am Michele with One "L": @handy - medieval is my jam!!! I'm really into Funhouse now too
	9:33am Handy Haversack: @steveo and @johnzo (and all the Os), I think they don't go away when you go past 2,000 -- they just don't display. And Kenzo is working on that. @Michele, Medieval Madness and World Cup '94 always have a special place in my heart! I discovered one of my friend's seven-year-old is REALLY GOOD at pinball, too. Gonna have to take him out to play some.
	9:33am steveo: @johnzo right on
	9:33am steveo: @handy nice!
	9:35am steveo: i hope my pledge will at least cover the storage costs of all my clickystars :)
	9:36am ParUbi: Love that bass drum
	9:36am Snoochienucci: ooooo nice!!!!
	9:36am zivilars: fantastic crazy cover!
	9:38am PKNY: Can't wait to get this premium, I'm a sucker for steel drums!
	9:38am GListener MW: AHHH I love this “I want you back” arrangement!!! I believe I first heard it on this very show a few years ago. is it on the Premium CD?
	9:39am Joe McG: We're going to give away the "Misora" CD after this song, not too many in the running! Kinloch Nelson soon, too.
	9:39am Joe McG: Thanks to everyone who has supported us so far. :)
	9:40am David (in London): Yo, Noiseniks, I'm here. Hello Joe and One-L. @Handy @Snoochie @John @et al
	9:41am John from Florham park: @David in London howdy
	9:41am Handy Haversack: Morning, @David! How was the weekend?
	👻 9:41am LastWhiteRhino: Good Morning Joe and Michele. Have a nice marathon.
	9:41am modern blaze: woah!
	9:41am Stillwell Coney Islander: Love This Steel Pandemonium Band!!
	9:41am Handy Haversack: Uh oh ... the Girl Scout Cookies have arrived at work!
	9:42am David (in London): @Handy - It was terrific thanks. Fun and work on personal projects in equal measure. How about you?
	9:43am iiibeat: Be steel my heart . .
	9:44am morphe': Steelepan... if ever .. skip Trinidad Carnival and go in the weeks before... "Panorama" -all about the music - no costumes... Ya go to the "Panyards" for the practice sessions and then the weekend music contest.. There is a photo somewhere in the FMU archives of my friends Winston and Noel drinking their rum on a Trini beach from the FMU Pledge of past Flask...
	9:44am David (in London): Yo morphe-ster.
	9:45am adampsyche: wait is the oven really out? i was gonna use that on wednesday to heat up bfast.
	9:45am PFB: Misora was fantastic. Pledging now.
	9:45am chresti Griffith Park: Morning coffee ‘n noise..hi
	9:45am Marcel M: Didn't know we had chimneys either! Hey Joe and Michele!
	9:45am Joshie in Oley, PA: Is the chimney critter a premium?
	9:45am SSS: When the chimney sweep finishes up, be sure to make that critter into a pie.
	9:45am Handy Haversack: We had a jam-packed Saturday, @David. We had a bday party for the dog at the most Brooklyn place in Brooklyn, which happens to be in our neighborhood -- a craft-beer pinball-arcade speakeasy through a secret door. Tons of our (well, the dog's) friends came. Then Kate and I caught WFMU DJ Sinead spinning at another bar in the neighborhood. Then Sunday we barely moved. I managed to get the laundry done, but otherwise, we were kind of done in! The dog, too! Barely enough energy to chew on his bison bone.
	9:46am joe: One weekend folks just need to come to the station and have a series of 80s montages which will fix everything needed once and for all.
	9:46am Adam West Coaster: Thank you, sweethearts!!! I love WFMU!
	👻 9:46am Webhamster Henry: in re: critter in the chimney Rich Hazelton's Inflatable Squirrel Carcass is named after a similar incident at 580 Springdale.
	9:46am SSS: Or souffle or omelette, whatever you prefer.
	9:48am Lixiviated Life: I'm only here to listen to Michele talk. (nothing personal Joe)
	👻 9:48am LastWhiteRhino: Is the chimney critter up for "swag for life" adoption rights?
	9:49am zivilars: need more whiskey for the lee hazlewood voice
	9:49am zivilars: final destination: lee marvin voice
	9:50am David (in London): @Handy - Your pooch must have had a whale of time. I hope novelty squeaky toys were involved. For you, even if not for the dog.
	9:50am Joe McG: I'm playing the CD but we're giving away the way cooler double LP version!
	9:51am morphe': David - funny ya say Morphe-ster... Squatting in Flaxman Ct (lovely old building/flats off Southhamton Road/Euston Station) a friend Chris Scott (writes semi-famous motorcycle books) called my Son Arnan -ski and myself Morphe-ster....
	👻 9:52am Brian in UK: Joe, had me blushing when Michele read out my comments too!!! Onward.
	9:53am Handy Haversack: @David, I'm not supposed to play with them unsupervised!
	9:54am David (in London): @Brian - I thought Brian S must be you! Did you hear on Serious Moonlight Sonatas yesterday when Roger accidentally read out my surname as well. Hilarious. He sounded very sheepish afterwards.
	9:54am David (in London): @morphe' - I guess I just intuitively knew that it was your name.
	👻 9:55am Brian in UK: David (in London), delightful sunny day here at last. Back to the garden shredder now.
	9:56am βrian: Always love to hear Mr. Prine.
	9:56am morphe': David.. thought of you on saturday in A'dam... There is a lovely toy shop "Mechanico??" that specializes in old school, yet new windup metal toys.... got my Simon a small hopping rabbit.. There was a fox mask which I did not get but i thought of yer ikon
	👻 9:56am Brian in UK: David, not I did not, think Joe called me Michael, would have preferred Handsome!!
	9:58am MplsCoco: ❤️❤️❤️❤️ John Prine❤️❤️❤️❤️
	9:58am morphe': David - check out Chris Scott's motorcycling adventures... interesting guy... He is given kudos from E. McGregor for info
	9:58am allanINtoronto: Prine, Hazlewood 'n' chimblykill. Must be Monday mornin'. (in Sam Elliot's voice)
	9:59am David (in London): @morphe - You're never too young for your first fox mask. I only ever take mine off to shower or eat dinner... And thanks for the steer on Chris Scott, will check him out.
	👻 9:59am Brian in UK: Other drugs are also available.
	10:00am David (in London): @'Handsome' Brian in Craven Arms - Mind your tie in the garden shredder.
	10:01am morphe': David - I just looked at Chris' current website - It comes off a bit self-oriented - he should have done it in the 3rd person, but is a good guy with a wealth of knowledge...
	👻 10:01am LastWhiteRhino: Michele's a pepper, I'm a pepper, wouldn't you want to be a pepper too?
	10:01am AndyIowa: Morning Michele + Joe + fellow ‘FMU fans! Have a great Marathon! -AndyIowa in Brooklyn
	10:03am Nate K.: "Drugs and the Weavers and I don't know . . ." This should be Jesse's show description.
	10:03am SSS: And the drug weavers? Imaging THOSE clothes.
	👻 10:03am Ken From Hyde Park: Yeah, the stupid cable company up here jacked up the rates another $12.00 this month. Makes me mad!
	👻 10:05am Brian in UK: @David strongly recommend this woman who travels solo on a Royal Enfield. www.youtube.com...
	10:05am Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Come join the East Bay weirdness at Burger Booglaooooo!!!! Hi, Joe and Michele!
	10:06am Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): It's actually an all-zombie line-up
	10:07am David (in London): Thanks Brian, I'll certainly watch some of those. My friend Alex did a similar cross South American road trip a year or two ago, right from the northern tip down to Patagonia. He returned to London physically, but I think mentally he's still on the road.
	10:07am morphe': David - just scrolled through the whole website - it is a bit much!!! The "Street Riding Years" (moto messenger in the 80s when I knew him) Broke his leg and never returned... The only people in London in the 80s I knew with jobs were messengers - all cyclists except Chris
	10:09am tom from Glasgow: good morning comrades
	10:11am Sean from Bridgeport: Have a great marathon, Joe!
	10:11am David (in London): @morphe - Yeah, being a courier was a real lifestyle / enabler of a move into London job. I nearly tried it myself at one stage, but ended up at LOOT, the Free Ads Paper instead... And that was a blast, so a good decision in retrospect (plus I kept all my limbs intact).
	10:11am Snoochienucci: this is sad... Not sure if anyone is familiar with the Russian Hall in little falls, but it had its last day i believe yesterday! First bar ive ever played at, have been consisntantly gigging there the last 5+ years, such a great family vibe and sad to see it go. Went last night for the last hoorah, still hoping it somehow comes back, but doesnt look likely. This song kinda hits me hard right now
	10:12am Ike: Morning @Tom! Are you there, or are you still there (in the afternoon)?
	10:13am morphe': Flipper??? I thought all 3 of the Flippers were dead????
	10:15am tom from Glasgow: hey Ike! i got in yesterday but was sleeping it off, just got up and i;m gonna go Dunkin Donuts and then head in
	10:16am Handy Haversack: I feel you, @Snoochie. We have said goodbye to a couple of out-gentrified places over the past couple months.
	10:16am tom from Glasgow: i like the emphasis on steel-pan music Joe. will be getting this prem
	10:18am David (in London): @Snoochie, I second Handy on that. Times are so hard for small venues. It's such a gut-wrencher when a much-beloved one disappears after many years.
	10:18am morphe': Trini Pan: My PoS friends are PhaseII supporters. I'll get the premium and pass it on.. Thanks Joe,Ml and all...
	10:20am David (in London): I saw the film of Coal Miner's Daughter on the flight to the US back in 1980 when we spent a family summer there. I was qute young, but it was a great film. To this day I'm a sucker for an film that covering US coal mining, Matewan in particular.
	10:20am Snoochienucci: @Handy, @DIL yeah such a weird feeling. Like loosing a home or something. Taking my last looks yesterday, just weird. Was nice to see everyone rallying one last time thou
	10:20am Miles: I got your picture
	10:20am Nate K.: Dean Martin does a nifty version of this.
	10:21am Snoochienucci: old country Joe at it again!
	10:21am annette: i got TWO vcrs, Joe. in case one if em breaks
	10:22am Crei6hton: Morning!
	10:23am Joe McG: Good for you, Annette! Luddites unite.
	10:23am Miles: " I've got your vcr , she's got you"
	10:23am βrian: "Hit were nineteen and twenty, and times was tough in Matewan ..."
	10:25am Joe McG: Giving away "Queens of Country" after this song! Get in the running now!
	10:26am Cabbage: <3
	10:26am David (in London): @Snoochie - We've lost virtually all the key venues from the centre of London, large and small. The 100 Club is probaby the sole survivor, clinging on by its fingertips. The one silver lining is that the musical centre of gravity has moved up to Hackney and East London (where I live), meaning that I can now walk home from about 60% of gigs that I go to these days. But it's still sad that some old favs that had been there for decades are no more.
	10:30am Snoochienucci: @DIL thats a shame man. Always cool to be able to walk to the spots but yeah you hate to see a scene fade away. The age of the internet i guess...
	10:31am melinda: @David Coal Miner’s Daughter made a big impression on me too, as a youth. As well as another Appalachia-based movie called Where the Lilies Bloom.
	10:35am P-90: “Casets”? What is “casets”?
	10:37am David (in London): @melinda - Wow, I don't know that one, thanks for the great steer. I'm going to check that out ASAP. Have you ever come across the book Albions' Seed by David Fischer? He traces the different groups that left the UK for the US over the centuries, and how their characteristics helped shape the areas that the US has today. Appalachia was settled by borderers who were tough, wild and unruly...
	10:38am ParUbi: What does a gutter ball get?
	10:39am Andrea in Jersey City: Hi Joe, I love your show. Whenever I get the chance to listen, I feel happy and lucky. The songs that you play are incredible, thank you times one trillion.
	10:40am Handy Haversack: @David, the FX TV show _Justified_ might interest you also.
	10:40am Joe McG: Aw, thanks, Andrea! :) Our next prize is an LP by the band Trash Kit.
	10:42am ?: Bringing the JAMS, Joe!
	10:42am David (in London): @Handy - Fantastic, thanks. First Mannix, now this. May I appoint you as my official US TV advisor? It's an unpaid post, but very prestigious. (You're welcome to add it to your CV.)
	10:42am olivia: ^ from Olivia ^
	10:43am Earth Walker: Ain’t no pledge high enough
	10:43am D. Lightfoot: hello all
	10:44am Earth Walker: Kick in kids. Already did it two shows
	10:44am Handy Haversack: @DIL, I'm having it tattooed on my forehead as we speak!
	10:45am pantz: Tell Matt Warwick to stop barking.
	10:45am morphe': Hey Joe... where ya going with those 45s in yer hand?
	10:46am David (in London): @Handy - Great, then I will send you official certification.
	10:48am Earth Walker: Hi Morphe David Handy what up dudes
	10:48am Ike: Is that the David S. in Philly, the fill-in DJ?
	10:49am Nate K.: Trash Kit = the Burn It Down! #1 record of the year. FWIW.
	10:50am Ike: Dave Mandl may have been one of the first DJs anywhere to post his playlists online (on Usenet circa 1993-95, IIRC). Or the first, perhaps?
	10:50am Paul D: Hello y’all Hi Michele! Happy Monday!
	10:50am Earth Walker: You got the whole world in your hands
	10:51am johnzo: you ever bottle that NJ flavor and put it up as a premium?
	10:52am melinda: @David I do have that book and I haven’t made it past the first section about New England, my attention is poor, but I’m not giving up. My late husband read the whole thing and from what he reported it explains a lot about regional cultures in the US.
	10:53am melinda: In fact I was telling someone about that book when I visited FMU last year for marathon!
	👻 10:53am tim from champaign (now washington): Hey Joe, Michele and everybody! Let's give Joe lots of cash this morning!
	10:53am David (in London): Hey Earth Walker - Just talkin' nonsense as usual (well, I am at any rate), but glad to have you aboard now.
	10:55am Joe McG: It would be cool if we could get to my goal this morning. I know it's early in the marathon, but I like early birds! Thanks, friends.
	10:55am David (in London): @melinda - Yeah, it's a beast of a work, but I think it's one of those that you can dip into at any point and any time, so doing it sporadically over time would be no bad thing. I found it really interesting to see how, even after hundreds of years, characteristics of the old country map across to the new.
	10:57am Handy Haversack: Hiya, Earth Walker! I'm scatting and bopping, per usual.
	10:58am Hugo (NL): This is so good. Catch em live if you can!
	10:58am Handy Haversack: Digging Trash Kit!
	10:59am P-90: That was a killer track
	10:59am Hugo (NL): Friends of The Ex
	11:00am Jeff Golick: If you do the rest of the show in a British accent, Joe, I'll kick in $50.
	11:00am sugarwolf!!!: The Revenge of the She-Punks is on my to read pile.
	11:01am Woo: "You can learn from books."-Ringo Starr-A Hard Day's Night. 1964
	11:02am Earth Walker: Handy David cool cool cool salt of the earth
	👻 11:03am Ken From Hyde Park: Haha ... Matt Warwick is chomping at the bit to win Trash Kit.
	👻 11:03am tim from champaign (now washington): Oooh! Reading and listening to records is one of my favorite activities! I hope I win!
	👻 11:04am tim from champaign (now washington): This Peel Sessions of FM is killer.
	11:06am SeanG: YAAAH!!
	11:07am Andrea in Jersey City: I wish I could feed this music through the speaker system of my office.
	👻 11:07am tim from champaign (now washington): Holy Shit! Las VulpeSS is new to me. Smokin take on I Wanna Be Your Dog.
	11:07am John from Florham park: @Tim from Champaign I keep noticing hoe well read a lot of the people on that chat boards are, Glad of it too
	11:08am morphe': David - yer song "Me Gusta Ser Un Zorra" I want to/like to be a Fox
	11:08am Matt Fiveash: So does that make Zorro a he-bitch?
	11:08am Barney Grubbs: the foxess?
	👻 11:08am Webhamster Henry: Zorra is a vixen!
	11:08am Andy Plants: Hey
	11:09am John from Florham park: @Andrea would be worth getting into all kinds of trouble right:)
	11:09am Andrea in Jersey City: You can do it!!!
	11:09am joe: Accoring to Google Translate I like being a slut
	👻 11:10am Brian in UK: David (in London) Damon Hill was a despatch rider before he started racing motorcycles. Never sure if 'Young Girl' was written before the event that never happened or after the event that did happen.
	11:10am Daybreak the Human: Zorro translates to "fox" yet Zorra is a bitch in one sense and vixen in another.
	11:10am Andrea in Jersey City: Yes John, I feel this music would be quite liberating to my programmer coworkers. One coworker said his favorite music is Top 40. Top 40 is prison to me. Prison.
	11:11am Handy Haversack: Wouldn't "Vulpess" mean "fox" of some sort as well?
	11:11am Michele with One "L": THIS IS MY BAND!!!!!!!!!
	11:12am Michele with One "L": Teach Me Tiger circa 1999!
	11:12am Handy Haversack: This is great!!!! Songs that need no "Ls"!
	11:13am ZeeBee: Yessss I love this song!! Gmorning listener friends!
	11:13am Andrea in Jersey City: That's amazing Michele!!I love it!
	11:13am Daybreak the Human: Never fear if your Accu heart is dark like mine appears to me. I re-upped my swag 2 weeks ago and I believe there is a little icon lag time, but as the Mighty Joe McGasko is live perhaps he will confirm my theory.
	11:13am John from Florham park: @Andrea have not listened to commercial radio since I happened on this station, tired of hearing the same bullshit day after day,and your coworker needs help
	11:14am John from Florham park: @daybreak funny seeing you on here this time of day
	11:14am Andrea in Jersey City: Wow, that's freaking amazing, Michele!!!!
	11:15am Handy Haversack: @Daybreak, I just wrote Joe a (presumably, horribly) annoying e-mail asking if I was able to be MORE profligate with my support of specific shows. Apparently, I'm radio promiscuous. I have small-c catholic taste!
	11:15am Andrea in Jersey City: YAY!!!!
	11:15am Daybreak the Human: It is my lunch break @John from FP Gotta maximize my Marathon team-ups!
	11:16am modern blaze: cd r rampage!
	11:16am Daybreak the Human: Ha! @Handy
	11:16am Andrea in Jersey City: @Daybreak the Human, I like your picture a lot.
	11:16am Andrea in Jersey City: Good music increases productivity by 120,0000%
	11:17am John from Florham park: @Daybreak good for you
	11:17am Handy Haversack: Kate and I were amusing ourselves thinking of band names for the bands we would be in for every WFMU show that we love. She took She-Bears for Creamo Coyl's.
	11:18am Daybreak the Human: Its because the workers are not Unionized! "More PRODUCTIVITY!!!" cry the Masters! Worker's Rights! For 4 Workers! Worker's Rights! For 4 Workers! Worker's Rights! For 4 Workers!
	11:19am John from Florham park: &Michele sheliab is one of those programs I can’t do without
	11:20am Andrea in Jersey City: Workers Rights need to include Better Music at Work
	11:21am Daybreak the Human: Feb 10 in the Archive: Wild Irish Roses on Surface Noise! wfmu.org...
	11:22am Handy Haversack: Holy crap, I still love this song every damn time. We miss you, Lou.
	👻 11:22am tim from champaign (now washington): Amen, Andrea! I had a job for a year where the "lite-rock" station played. I was about ready to go to my union rep to make a hostile work environment complaint.
	11:23am Daybreak the Human: That's the archive link to the Wild Irish Roses Live on Surface Noise in case you just see WFMU .org part of the link.
	11:23am Joe McG: Current Prize: Wild Irish Roses CD and Large black T-shirt with their logo on it.
	11:23am iiibeat: I dunno . . It is a nice and good song . . But . . It has been played out a bit.
	11:24am Andrea in Jersey City: I went to the memorial in Lincoln Center when Lou Reed died. I was going to a lot of dead rockers funerals back then (Pete Seeger, others). I started to dance and everyone looked at me, but they couldn't dance, they were too sad, or trying to look cool.
	11:24am GListener MW: I’ve been loving these Wild Irish Roses these past weeks! <3
	11:24am Joe McG: Thanks for posting that, Daybreak!
	11:24am Daybreak the Human: My Please Joe!
	11:24am John from Florham park: @Andrea in all seriousness this station keeps me sane in an insane world @Tim I would have done it
	11:25am Daybreak the Human: pleasure not Please (my computer want me to beg)
	11:25am Food Caboose: Wow. It's like I'm listening to SMK's show but it's Monday!
	11:26am P-90: The FMU archives are literally priceless, you couldn’t put a value on them. Unique and irreplaceable.
	11:27am Andrea in Jersey City: I contemplated running away when I was a child because of the smooth jazz radio station my parents played on the way to church. I am pleased to report that smooth jazz radio and religion is out of my life!
	11:27am Roberto: Any time I'm in a public space where the PA music is intolerably generic, I think, if you're looking for sounds that are low-key and won't offend anyone, why not go with "classical?" These "lite" stations make me queasy.
	11:27am Daybreak the Human: VASTLY agree with P-90
	11:27am Hubig Pie: Love them toraluaths and lemluaths
	11:28am Andrea in Jersey City: Roberto, classical would be so much better. I love most classical
	11:29am Handy Haversack: It turns out that it is possible for two people to have different degrees of fascination with the National Bagpipe Center of Scotland. I would not have guessed that.
	11:29am iiibeat: Yeah.
	11:29am Roberto: Case in point: I was at a doctor's office last week and that Jason Mraz song that SM Ken used to play to coerce people into pledging was playing.
	11:29am Lixiviated Life: wondering now just how many versions of All Tomorrows Parties are out there. @ Joe McG maybe you could devote a show segment to playing every cover of that song.
	11:30am John from Florham park: @Andrea when I am not listening to this station I listen too WQXR
	11:30am Andrea in Jersey City: Great music has the power to get a human out of a mental rut. I've never met a human that doesn't like getting our of a mental rut!
	11:30am SeanG: Jonesy!
	11:30am David (in London): @Lixiviated Life - That is a top-notch suggestion.
	11:31am John from NP: @Daybreak the live show was great!!
	11:33am Joe McG: Last licks for WIR! Get your pledges in now to win.
	11:33am Earth Walker: Man this song rocks !
	11:33am melinda: @Andrea that’s hilarious.
	11:33am melinda: About the smooth jazz, I mean.
	11:34am tom from Glasgow: LOVE this bagpipe stuff. i'm the only one of my friends who doesn't hate bagpipe music. (it's because i'm not actually from Scotland)
	11:34am Handy Haversack: In space, no one can hear you groove.
	11:34am morphe': Saor = freedom or some such root in Gaelic
	11:34am melinda: Autotune pop is what drives me nuts.
	11:35am P-90: Steel Pan Disco Zarathustra. Dig it, Mon.
	11:35am Roberto: You can tell I've been in a lot of waiting rooms lately.
	11:35am Gareth Jones: OK, so I wasn't entirely convinced by a CD of steel pan covers as a DJ premium. But now I've heard 2001, you've convinced me!
	11:36am Roberto: Now if they really wanted to get edgy, they could play Fugazi's "Waiting Room" on continuous loop.
	11:36am Handy Haversack: @Roberto, like, on a ... Repeater?
	11:39am jamie in manchester uk: nothing like a steel drum to take you on an instant mental vacation
	11:39am P-90: Or maybe someone should record a song to the tune of “Closing Time”, but with new lyrics about “Waiting Room”, and with a real mellow smooth Jazz arrangement...
	11:42am Daybreak: The Marathon Man: The watches are likely charged kinetic-ly through the swinging of the wearers arms through their natural arm movements when walking.
	👻 11:47am TristaC.LadyCaveBrat: Love this Lab tune. A fave!!
	11:48am Joe McG: Thanks to Trista and everyone on the comments board today who has pledged to WFMU or plans to pledge to WFMU. We really appreciate it!
	11:48am Listener Alexandra: Smaller but (hopefully) still mighty. And greetings from the Best Coast :)
	11:49am Bill W: do the job, Surface Noisers
	11:50am Ike: YES!!! What they're saying! Don't wait! Do it NOW! Pledge now! Do it NOW! Donate now! NOW NOW NOW NOW!
	11:50am Daybreak: The Marathon Man: Yar! That be the Feeling I’m Feeling!
	11:50am pantz: I would sell my plasma to keep WFMU afloat. Thankfully, I don't have to...yet.
	11:52am Paul D: Is there any way to log on via the wfmu app?
	👻 11:53am 12539: Thanks, Joe (and Michellllllllle)!
	11:53am Daybreak: The Marathon Man: Yes! Hit the little 3 line box in the lower right of the App and select Donate.
	👻 11:54am queems: PREACH JOE
	11:54am Mark Hurst: So true! Say it, Joe!
	11:55am John from Florham park: @Jie tell it like it is
	11:55am John from Florham park: I mean joe sorry
	👻 11:57am Brian in UK: Thanks Michele & Joe.

	11:57am pantz: I'll make more
	👻 11:57am LastWhiteRhino: Good team,good show .

	9:28am Handy Haversack: @Michele, I took the liberty of passing along bday wishes to Bagpipe from you. Hope that's OK and that you didn't actually hope he had a bad pinball birthday party.
	9:29am Michele with One "L": @handy - did you guys do the pinball at sunshine?
	9:29am Walt: Fellow GA listener here reminding everyone that Smyrna is pronounced "Smur-na" rather than "Smear-na." Happy Marathon and pledge pledge pledge!

And Kenzo is working on that. @Michele, Medieval Madness and World Cup '94 always have a special place in my heart! I discovered one of my friend's seven-year-old is REALLY GOOD at pinball, too. Gonna have to take him out to play some.

	9:36am zivilars: fantastic crazy cover!
	9:38am PKNY: Can't wait to get this premium, I'm a sucker for steel drums!
	9:38am GListener MW: AHHH I love this “I want you back” arrangement!!! I believe I first heard it on this very show a few years ago. is it on the Premium CD?

	9:40am David (in London): Yo, Noiseniks, I'm here. Hello Joe and One-L. @Handy @Snoochie @John @et al
	9:41am John from Florham park: @David in London howdy
	9:41am Handy Haversack: Morning, @David! How was the weekend?

	9:43am iiibeat: Be steel my heart . .
	9:44am morphe': Steelepan... if ever .. skip Trinidad Carnival and go in the weeks before... "Panorama" -all about the music - no costumes... Ya go to the "Panyards" for the practice sessions and then the weekend music contest.. There is a photo somewhere in the FMU archives of my friends Winston and Noel drinking their rum on a Trini beach from the FMU Pledge of past Flask...
	9:44am David (in London): Yo morphe-ster.
	9:45am adampsyche: wait is the oven really out? i was gonna use that on wednesday to heat up bfast.
	9:45am PFB: Misora was fantastic. Pledging now.
	9:45am chresti Griffith Park: Morning coffee ‘n noise..hi
	9:45am Marcel M: Didn't know we had chimneys either! Hey Joe and Michele!
	9:45am Joshie in Oley, PA: Is the chimney critter a premium?
	9:45am SSS: When the chimney sweep finishes up, be sure to make that critter into a pie.
	9:45am Handy Haversack: We had a jam-packed Saturday, @David. We had a bday party for the dog at the most Brooklyn place in Brooklyn, which happens to be in our neighborhood -- a craft-beer pinball-arcade speakeasy through a secret door. Tons of our (well, the dog's) friends came. Then Kate and I caught WFMU DJ Sinead spinning at another bar in the neighborhood. Then Sunday we barely moved. I managed to get the laundry done, but otherwise, we were kind of done in! The dog, too! Barely enough energy to chew on his bison bone.
	9:46am joe: One weekend folks just need to come to the station and have a series of 80s montages which will fix everything needed once and for all.
	9:46am Adam West Coaster: Thank you, sweethearts!!! I love WFMU!
	👻 9:46am Webhamster Henry: in re: critter in the chimney Rich Hazelton's Inflatable Squirrel Carcass is named after a similar incident at 580 Springdale.
	9:46am SSS: Or souffle or omelette, whatever you prefer.
	9:48am Lixiviated Life: I'm only here to listen to Michele talk. (nothing personal Joe)
	👻 9:48am LastWhiteRhino: Is the chimney critter up for "swag for life" adoption rights?
	9:49am zivilars: need more whiskey for the lee hazlewood voice
	9:49am zivilars: final destination: lee marvin voice
	9:50am David (in London): @Handy - Your pooch must have had a whale of time. I hope novelty squeaky toys were involved. For you, even if not for the dog.
	9:50am Joe McG: I'm playing the CD but we're giving away the way cooler double LP version!
	9:51am morphe': David - funny ya say Morphe-ster... Squatting in Flaxman Ct (lovely old building/flats off Southhamton Road/Euston Station) a friend Chris Scott (writes semi-famous motorcycle books) called my Son Arnan -ski and myself Morphe-ster....
	👻 9:52am Brian in UK: Joe, had me blushing when Michele read out my comments too!!! Onward.
	9:53am Handy Haversack: @David, I'm not supposed to play with them unsupervised!
	9:54am David (in London): @Brian - I thought Brian S must be you! Did you hear on Serious Moonlight Sonatas yesterday when Roger accidentally read out my surname as well. Hilarious. He sounded very sheepish afterwards.
	9:54am David (in London): @morphe' - I guess I just intuitively knew that it was your name.
	👻 9:55am Brian in UK: David (in London), delightful sunny day here at last. Back to the garden shredder now.
	9:56am βrian: Always love to hear Mr. Prine.
	9:56am morphe': David.. thought of you on saturday in A'dam... There is a lovely toy shop "Mechanico??" that specializes in old school, yet new windup metal toys.... got my Simon a small hopping rabbit.. There was a fox mask which I did not get but i thought of yer ikon
	👻 9:56am Brian in UK: David, not I did not, think Joe called me Michael, would have preferred Handsome!!
	9:58am MplsCoco: ❤️❤️❤️❤️ John Prine❤️❤️❤️❤️
	9:58am morphe': David - check out Chris Scott's motorcycling adventures... interesting guy... He is given kudos from E. McGregor for info
	9:58am allanINtoronto: Prine, Hazlewood 'n' chimblykill. Must be Monday mornin'. (in Sam Elliot's voice)
	9:59am David (in London): @morphe - You're never too young for your first fox mask. I only ever take mine off to shower or eat dinner... And thanks for the steer on Chris Scott, will check him out.
	👻 9:59am Brian in UK: Other drugs are also available.
	10:00am David (in London): @'Handsome' Brian in Craven Arms - Mind your tie in the garden shredder.
	10:01am morphe': David - I just looked at Chris' current website - It comes off a bit self-oriented - he should have done it in the 3rd person, but is a good guy with a wealth of knowledge...
	👻 10:01am LastWhiteRhino: Michele's a pepper, I'm a pepper, wouldn't you want to be a pepper too?
	10:01am AndyIowa: Morning Michele + Joe + fellow ‘FMU fans! Have a great Marathon! -AndyIowa in Brooklyn
	10:03am Nate K.: "Drugs and the Weavers and I don't know . . ." This should be Jesse's show description.
	10:03am SSS: And the drug weavers? Imaging THOSE clothes.
	👻 10:03am Ken From Hyde Park: Yeah, the stupid cable company up here jacked up the rates another $12.00 this month. Makes me mad!
	👻 10:05am Brian in UK: @David strongly recommend this woman who travels solo on a Royal Enfield. www.youtube.com...
	10:05am Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Come join the East Bay weirdness at Burger Booglaooooo!!!! Hi, Joe and Michele!
	10:06am Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): It's actually an all-zombie line-up
	10:07am David (in London): Thanks Brian, I'll certainly watch some of those. My friend Alex did a similar cross South American road trip a year or two ago, right from the northern tip down to Patagonia. He returned to London physically, but I think mentally he's still on the road.
	10:07am morphe': David - just scrolled through the whole website - it is a bit much!!! The "Street Riding Years" (moto messenger in the 80s when I knew him) Broke his leg and never returned... The only people in London in the 80s I knew with jobs were messengers - all cyclists except Chris
	10:09am tom from Glasgow: good morning comrades
	10:11am Sean from Bridgeport: Have a great marathon, Joe!
	10:11am David (in London): @morphe - Yeah, being a courier was a real lifestyle / enabler of a move into London job. I nearly tried it myself at one stage, but ended up at LOOT, the Free Ads Paper instead... And that was a blast, so a good decision in retrospect (plus I kept all my limbs intact).
	10:11am Snoochienucci: this is sad... Not sure if anyone is familiar with the Russian Hall in little falls, but it had its last day i believe yesterday! First bar ive ever played at, have been consisntantly gigging there the last 5+ years, such a great family vibe and sad to see it go. Went last night for the last hoorah, still hoping it somehow comes back, but doesnt look likely. This song kinda hits me hard right now
	10:12am Ike: Morning @Tom! Are you there, or are you still there (in the afternoon)?
	10:13am morphe': Flipper??? I thought all 3 of the Flippers were dead????
	10:15am tom from Glasgow: hey Ike! i got in yesterday but was sleeping it off, just got up and i;m gonna go Dunkin Donuts and then head in
	10:16am Handy Haversack: I feel you, @Snoochie. We have said goodbye to a couple of out-gentrified places over the past couple months.
	10:16am tom from Glasgow: i like the emphasis on steel-pan music Joe. will be getting this prem
	10:18am David (in London): @Snoochie, I second Handy on that. Times are so hard for small venues. It's such a gut-wrencher when a much-beloved one disappears after many years.
	10:18am morphe': Trini Pan: My PoS friends are PhaseII supporters. I'll get the premium and pass it on.. Thanks Joe,Ml and all...
	10:20am David (in London): I saw the film of Coal Miner's Daughter on the flight to the US back in 1980 when we spent a family summer there. I was qute young, but it was a great film. To this day I'm a sucker for an film that covering US coal mining, Matewan in particular.
	10:20am Snoochienucci: @Handy, @DIL yeah such a weird feeling. Like loosing a home or something. Taking my last looks yesterday, just weird. Was nice to see everyone rallying one last time thou
	10:20am Miles: I got your picture
	10:20am Nate K.: Dean Martin does a nifty version of this.
	10:21am Snoochienucci: old country Joe at it again!
	10:21am annette: i got TWO vcrs, Joe. in case one if em breaks
	10:22am Crei6hton: Morning!
	10:23am Joe McG: Good for you, Annette! Luddites unite.
	10:23am Miles: " I've got your vcr , she's got you"
	10:23am βrian: "Hit were nineteen and twenty, and times was tough in Matewan ..."
	10:25am Joe McG: Giving away "Queens of Country" after this song! Get in the running now!
	10:26am Cabbage: <3
	10:26am David (in London): @Snoochie - We've lost virtually all the key venues from the centre of London, large and small. The 100 Club is probaby the sole survivor, clinging on by its fingertips. The one silver lining is that the musical centre of gravity has moved up to Hackney and East London (where I live), meaning that I can now walk home from about 60% of gigs that I go to these days. But it's still sad that some old favs that had been there for decades are no more.
	10:30am Snoochienucci: @DIL thats a shame man. Always cool to be able to walk to the spots but yeah you hate to see a scene fade away. The age of the internet i guess...
	10:31am melinda: @David Coal Miner’s Daughter made a big impression on me too, as a youth. As well as another Appalachia-based movie called Where the Lilies Bloom.
	10:35am P-90: “Casets”? What is “casets”?
	10:37am David (in London): @melinda - Wow, I don't know that one, thanks for the great steer. I'm going to check that out ASAP. Have you ever come across the book Albions' Seed by David Fischer? He traces the different groups that left the UK for the US over the centuries, and how their characteristics helped shape the areas that the US has today. Appalachia was settled by borderers who were tough, wild and unruly...
	10:38am ParUbi: What does a gutter ball get?
	10:39am Andrea in Jersey City: Hi Joe, I love your show. Whenever I get the chance to listen, I feel happy and lucky. The songs that you play are incredible, thank you times one trillion.
	10:40am Handy Haversack: @David, the FX TV show _Justified_ might interest you also.
	10:40am Joe McG: Aw, thanks, Andrea! :) Our next prize is an LP by the band Trash Kit.
	10:42am ?: Bringing the JAMS, Joe!
	10:42am David (in London): @Handy - Fantastic, thanks. First Mannix, now this. May I appoint you as my official US TV advisor? It's an unpaid post, but very prestigious. (You're welcome to add it to your CV.)
	10:42am olivia: ^ from Olivia ^
	10:43am Earth Walker: Ain’t no pledge high enough
	10:43am D. Lightfoot: hello all
	10:44am Earth Walker: Kick in kids. Already did it two shows
	10:44am Handy Haversack: @DIL, I'm having it tattooed on my forehead as we speak!
	10:45am pantz: Tell Matt Warwick to stop barking.
	10:45am morphe': Hey Joe... where ya going with those 45s in yer hand?
	10:46am David (in London): @Handy - Great, then I will send you official certification.
	10:48am Earth Walker: Hi Morphe David Handy what up dudes
	10:48am Ike: Is that the David S. in Philly, the fill-in DJ?
	10:49am Nate K.: Trash Kit = the Burn It Down! #1 record of the year. FWIW.
	10:50am Ike: Dave Mandl may have been one of the first DJs anywhere to post his playlists online (on Usenet circa 1993-95, IIRC). Or the first, perhaps?
	10:50am Paul D: Hello y’all Hi Michele! Happy Monday!
	10:50am Earth Walker: You got the whole world in your hands
	10:51am johnzo: you ever bottle that NJ flavor and put it up as a premium?
	10:52am melinda: @David I do have that book and I haven’t made it past the first section about New England, my attention is poor, but I’m not giving up. My late husband read the whole thing and from what he reported it explains a lot about regional cultures in the US.
	10:53am melinda: In fact I was telling someone about that book when I visited FMU last year for marathon!
	👻 10:53am tim from champaign (now washington): Hey Joe, Michele and everybody! Let's give Joe lots of cash this morning!
	10:53am David (in London): Hey Earth Walker - Just talkin' nonsense as usual (well, I am at any rate), but glad to have you aboard now.
	10:55am Joe McG: It would be cool if we could get to my goal this morning. I know it's early in the marathon, but I like early birds! Thanks, friends.
	10:55am David (in London): @melinda - Yeah, it's a beast of a work, but I think it's one of those that you can dip into at any point and any time, so doing it sporadically over time would be no bad thing. I found it really interesting to see how, even after hundreds of years, characteristics of the old country map across to the new.
	10:57am Handy Haversack: Hiya, Earth Walker! I'm scatting and bopping, per usual.
	10:58am Hugo (NL): This is so good. Catch em live if you can!
	10:58am Handy Haversack: Digging Trash Kit!
	10:59am P-90: That was a killer track
	10:59am Hugo (NL): Friends of The Ex
	11:00am Jeff Golick: If you do the rest of the show in a British accent, Joe, I'll kick in $50.
	11:00am sugarwolf!!!: The Revenge of the She-Punks is on my to read pile.
	11:01am Woo: "You can learn from books."-Ringo Starr-A Hard Day's Night. 1964
	11:02am Earth Walker: Handy David cool cool cool salt of the earth
	👻 11:03am Ken From Hyde Park: Haha ... Matt Warwick is chomping at the bit to win Trash Kit.
	👻 11:03am tim from champaign (now washington): Oooh! Reading and listening to records is one of my favorite activities! I hope I win!
	👻 11:04am tim from champaign (now washington): This Peel Sessions of FM is killer.
	11:06am SeanG: YAAAH!!
	11:07am Andrea in Jersey City: I wish I could feed this music through the speaker system of my office.
	👻 11:07am tim from champaign (now washington): Holy Shit! Las VulpeSS is new to me. Smokin take on I Wanna Be Your Dog.
	11:07am John from Florham park: @Tim from Champaign I keep noticing hoe well read a lot of the people on that chat boards are, Glad of it too
	11:08am morphe': David - yer song "Me Gusta Ser Un Zorra" I want to/like to be a Fox
	11:08am Matt Fiveash: So does that make Zorro a he-bitch?
	11:08am Barney Grubbs: the foxess?
	👻 11:08am Webhamster Henry: Zorra is a vixen!
	11:08am Andy Plants: Hey
	11:09am John from Florham park: @Andrea would be worth getting into all kinds of trouble right:)
	11:09am Andrea in Jersey City: You can do it!!!
	11:09am joe: Accoring to Google Translate I like being a slut
	👻 11:10am Brian in UK: David (in London) Damon Hill was a despatch rider before he started racing motorcycles. Never sure if 'Young Girl' was written before the event that never happened or after the event that did happen.
	11:10am Daybreak the Human: Zorro translates to "fox" yet Zorra is a bitch in one sense and vixen in another.
	11:10am Andrea in Jersey City: Yes John, I feel this music would be quite liberating to my programmer coworkers. One coworker said his favorite music is Top 40. Top 40 is prison to me. Prison.
	11:11am Handy Haversack: Wouldn't "Vulpess" mean "fox" of some sort as well?
	11:11am Michele with One "L": THIS IS MY BAND!!!!!!!!!
	11:12am Michele with One "L": Teach Me Tiger circa 1999!
	11:12am Handy Haversack: This is great!!!! Songs that need no "Ls"!
	11:13am ZeeBee: Yessss I love this song!! Gmorning listener friends!
	11:13am Andrea in Jersey City: That's amazing Michele!!I love it!
	11:13am Daybreak the Human: Never fear if your Accu heart is dark like mine appears to me. I re-upped my swag 2 weeks ago and I believe there is a little icon lag time, but as the Mighty Joe McGasko is live perhaps he will confirm my theory.
	11:13am John from Florham park: @Andrea have not listened to commercial radio since I happened on this station, tired of hearing the same bullshit day after day,and your coworker needs help
	11:14am John from Florham park: @daybreak funny seeing you on here this time of day
	11:14am Andrea in Jersey City: Wow, that's freaking amazing, Michele!!!!
	11:15am Handy Haversack: @Daybreak, I just wrote Joe a (presumably, horribly) annoying e-mail asking if I was able to be MORE profligate with my support of specific shows. Apparently, I'm radio promiscuous. I have small-c catholic taste!
	11:15am Andrea in Jersey City: YAY!!!!
	11:15am Daybreak the Human: It is my lunch break @John from FP Gotta maximize my Marathon team-ups!
	11:16am modern blaze: cd r rampage!
	11:16am Daybreak the Human: Ha! @Handy
	11:16am Andrea in Jersey City: @Daybreak the Human, I like your picture a lot.
	11:16am Andrea in Jersey City: Good music increases productivity by 120,0000%
	11:17am John from Florham park: @Daybreak good for you
	11:17am Handy Haversack: Kate and I were amusing ourselves thinking of band names for the bands we would be in for every WFMU show that we love. She took She-Bears for Creamo Coyl's.
	11:18am Daybreak the Human: Its because the workers are not Unionized! "More PRODUCTIVITY!!!" cry the Masters! Worker's Rights! For 4 Workers! Worker's Rights! For 4 Workers! Worker's Rights! For 4 Workers!
	11:19am John from Florham park: &Michele sheliab is one of those programs I can’t do without
	11:20am Andrea in Jersey City: Workers Rights need to include Better Music at Work
	11:21am Daybreak the Human: Feb 10 in the Archive: Wild Irish Roses on Surface Noise! wfmu.org...
	11:22am Handy Haversack: Holy crap, I still love this song every damn time. We miss you, Lou.
	👻 11:22am tim from champaign (now washington): Amen, Andrea! I had a job for a year where the "lite-rock" station played. I was about ready to go to my union rep to make a hostile work environment complaint.
	11:23am Daybreak the Human: That's the archive link to the Wild Irish Roses Live on Surface Noise in case you just see WFMU .org part of the link.
	11:23am Joe McG: Current Prize: Wild Irish Roses CD and Large black T-shirt with their logo on it.
	11:23am iiibeat: I dunno . . It is a nice and good song . . But . . It has been played out a bit.
	11:24am Andrea in Jersey City: I went to the memorial in Lincoln Center when Lou Reed died. I was going to a lot of dead rockers funerals back then (Pete Seeger, others). I started to dance and everyone looked at me, but they couldn't dance, they were too sad, or trying to look cool.
	11:24am GListener MW: I’ve been loving these Wild Irish Roses these past weeks! <3
	11:24am Joe McG: Thanks for posting that, Daybreak!
	11:24am Daybreak the Human: My Please Joe!
	11:24am John from Florham park: @Andrea in all seriousness this station keeps me sane in an insane world @Tim I would have done it
	11:25am Daybreak the Human: pleasure not Please (my computer want me to beg)
	11:25am Food Caboose: Wow. It's like I'm listening to SMK's show but it's Monday!
	11:26am P-90: The FMU archives are literally priceless, you couldn’t put a value on them. Unique and irreplaceable.
	11:27am Andrea in Jersey City: I contemplated running away when I was a child because of the smooth jazz radio station my parents played on the way to church. I am pleased to report that smooth jazz radio and religion is out of my life!
	11:27am Roberto: Any time I'm in a public space where the PA music is intolerably generic, I think, if you're looking for sounds that are low-key and won't offend anyone, why not go with "classical?" These "lite" stations make me queasy.
	11:27am Daybreak the Human: VASTLY agree with P-90
	11:27am Hubig Pie: Love them toraluaths and lemluaths
	11:28am Andrea in Jersey City: Roberto, classical would be so much better. I love most classical
	11:29am Handy Haversack: It turns out that it is possible for two people to have different degrees of fascination with the National Bagpipe Center of Scotland. I would not have guessed that.
	11:29am iiibeat: Yeah.
	11:29am Roberto: Case in point: I was at a doctor's office last week and that Jason Mraz song that SM Ken used to play to coerce people into pledging was playing.
	11:29am Lixiviated Life: wondering now just how many versions of All Tomorrows Parties are out there. @ Joe McG maybe you could devote a show segment to playing every cover of that song.
	11:30am John from Florham park: @Andrea when I am not listening to this station I listen too WQXR
	11:30am Andrea in Jersey City: Great music has the power to get a human out of a mental rut. I've never met a human that doesn't like getting our of a mental rut!
	11:30am SeanG: Jonesy!
	11:30am David (in London): @Lixiviated Life - That is a top-notch suggestion.
	11:31am John from NP: @Daybreak the live show was great!!
	11:33am Joe McG: Last licks for WIR! Get your pledges in now to win.
	11:33am Earth Walker: Man this song rocks !
	11:33am melinda: @Andrea that’s hilarious.
	11:33am melinda: About the smooth jazz, I mean.
	11:34am tom from Glasgow: LOVE this bagpipe stuff. i'm the only one of my friends who doesn't hate bagpipe music. (it's because i'm not actually from Scotland)
	11:34am Handy Haversack: In space, no one can hear you groove.
	11:34am morphe': Saor = freedom or some such root in Gaelic
	11:34am melinda: Autotune pop is what drives me nuts.
	11:35am P-90: Steel Pan Disco Zarathustra. Dig it, Mon.
	11:35am Roberto: You can tell I've been in a lot of waiting rooms lately.
	11:35am Gareth Jones: OK, so I wasn't entirely convinced by a CD of steel pan covers as a DJ premium. But now I've heard 2001, you've convinced me!
	11:36am Roberto: Now if they really wanted to get edgy, they could play Fugazi's "Waiting Room" on continuous loop.
	11:36am Handy Haversack: @Roberto, like, on a ... Repeater?
	11:39am jamie in manchester uk: nothing like a steel drum to take you on an instant mental vacation
	11:39am P-90: Or maybe someone should record a song to the tune of “Closing Time”, but with new lyrics about “Waiting Room”, and with a real mellow smooth Jazz arrangement...
	11:42am Daybreak: The Marathon Man: The watches are likely charged kinetic-ly through the swinging of the wearers arms through their natural arm movements when walking.
	👻 11:47am TristaC.LadyCaveBrat: Love this Lab tune. A fave!!
	11:48am Joe McG: Thanks to Trista and everyone on the comments board today who has pledged to WFMU or plans to pledge to WFMU. We really appreciate it!
	11:48am Listener Alexandra: Smaller but (hopefully) still mighty. And greetings from the Best Coast :)
	11:49am Bill W: do the job, Surface Noisers
	11:50am Ike: YES!!! What they're saying! Don't wait! Do it NOW! Pledge now! Do it NOW! Donate now! NOW NOW NOW NOW!
	11:50am Daybreak: The Marathon Man: Yar! That be the Feeling I’m Feeling!
	11:50am pantz: I would sell my plasma to keep WFMU afloat. Thankfully, I don't have to...yet.
	11:52am Paul D: Is there any way to log on via the wfmu app?
	👻 11:53am 12539: Thanks, Joe (and Michellllllllle)!
	11:53am Daybreak: The Marathon Man: Yes! Hit the little 3 line box in the lower right of the App and select Donate.
	👻 11:54am queems: PREACH JOE

	11:55am John from Florham park: @Jie tell it like it is
	11:55am John from Florham park: I mean joe sorry
	👻 11:57am Brian in UK: Thanks Michele & Joe.
	11:57am Handy Haversack: Sell pantz's plasma if you have to!
	11:57am Andrea in Jersey City: human curated music for humans. human curated music for humans. human curated music for humans. human curated music for humans. human curated music for humans.
	11:57am pantz: I'll make more
	👻 11:57am LastWhiteRhino: Good team,good show .
	11:58am Handy Haversack: Nice work, Joe and Michele!!!
	11:58am David (in London): I'll buy pantz' plasma if necessary.
	11:58am Andrea in Jersey City: I'll go make more plasma too
	11:58am P-90: Well done! Thanks Joe McG and Michele
