	3:25pm djsheilab: Everything seems to be happening at hyper-speed these days. it's mystifying and dizzying.

	3:26pm Vanessa: ahh, the fuzzzzzz

	3:34pm ncjay: oh poor kitty - and poor Sheila!
	3:34pm P-90: (That might have been Alvy’s way of letting Sheila know he wasn’t happy about her leaving him alone for four days)
	3:34pm PaulRobeson1920: Bummer about the sheets! at-least the cat didn't burn the house down! : )
	3:35pm Emily Rems: Alvy!!!!! No! My Lil' Irv lost his balance in my arms yesterday and clawed a huge gash into my chest. Kitty hijinx! Luv U Sheila :)

	3:45pm Jett: Loved the Estrella Morente track, she's from Andalusia. Followed by a big favorite of mine, Big Maybelle. As always, you keep knocking it out of the park. @djsheilab
	3:45pm Vanessa: racing around the house in the kitty 500
	3:46pm Michael 98145: like Jett just said
	3:46pm Monica: Yo yo yo, Sheila! Tuned in just in time to hear about Alvy's mishap. Have lost a couple of nice bath rugs to Ava T. Cats urges. Worst nation? Urination! xo

	4:06pm Mr. Pumpy: Handy! Hey, pal.
	4:06pm Handy Haversack: We just walked in from the vermouth store. What did Alvy Singer pee on? We feel that pain. Three cats. One rage pees. One can't aim. And one is so gossamer-furred that her poop sticks to her when she leaves the box ...
	4:06pm Layet Johnson: I just bought a Hardy 3-disc CD box set!! She rules!
	4:06pm anon in LA, the state not the city: a couple little hummingbirds brought me back to life yesterday morning in the midst of my continuing despair, i went out to fill the feeder and they were in th battle of a lifetime to own it and one actually landed on my thumb as i reached for the feeder to refresh the nectar suddenly i felt alive
	4:06pm mariano: Mr. Pumpy! And someone cue the "Welcome Back Kotter" song for Handy.

	4:10pm djsheilab: dreamyandseedy—She's a love indeed!
	4:12pm Deborah: Listening to your comments, Sheila, and felt a wave of empathy. Just a tough week culminating in emergency dental work and lots of pain. Music makes it easier to do the necessary drone work of teaching online. Thanks.
	4:13pm Michael 98145: all respect to our educators !
	4:14pm djsheilab: Deborah—Oh no....I'm so sorry to hear it. What ever is going on with this week?!!!
	4:15pm Handy Haversack: I think Kate's emergency oral surgery was the day before yours, Deborah, and her swelling and pain are greatly reduced -- to there's hope for the future!
	4:16pm Michael 98145: nobody needs more pain
	4:17pm Carmichael: I appear to be the only cats-free commenter on this or any other FMU board ...
	4:19pm Tony Bayonne: WFMU is for cats
	4:19pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	4:20pm Jett: I don't own a cat. I'm allergic to them, but cats love me. They all gravitate towards me and love to be around me. It's okay, they're wonderful. I give them my affection back. I am a big fan of Alvy Singer, the coolest cat.
	4:22pm Jett: I'm a big fan of Jacqueline Taieb! She's so cool.
	4:22pm Michael 98145: i feel like playing a record just to annoy the neighbors
	4:22pm DannyBoyNYC: Wow - what great record!
	4:22pm listener james from westwood: @Jett: I would love to have a cat in the joint, or two even, as I work from home (even before All This) and adore cats, but allergies were likewise my issue.
	4:22pm Tony Bayonne: My favorite WFMU artifact. I love this print. RIP Jim Flora. www.jimflora.com...
	4:24pm Michael 98145: SAULT - yet another WFMU discovery
	4:24pm Jett: @listener James from Westwood I hear ya, my friend. It's okay, I'm sure the cats would appreciate you.
	4:24pm a5vzener: Zuper zstuff this SAULT. Never heard this before.
	4:25pm djsheilab: a5vzener—They're hugely prolific! An album a year and they're all top notch.
	4:25pm Tony Bayonne: A lot of bangers in this block
	4:26pm Handy Haversack: Carm, you need a cat? At least one of ours is unpopular at any given moment, so I could send one along!
	4:28pm mariano: Don't mail cats. It never ends well. Believe me, I know.
	4:28pm Carmichael: Nope, Handy. Just a semi-serious observation.
	4:29pm Roberto: Don't male cats either if their desire is to be female or non-binary.
	4:30pm Glamrock90: Thank you Sheila for set up & getting into a Friday end of the week party mood.
	4:30pm Bob: Chris Clark! Absolute dynamite!
	4:30pm a5vzener: My cat acts like a Proudboy numbnuts. He gets his ass kicked in cat fights and limps home, bloody.
	4:31pm Michael 98145: cattitude
	4:32pm Mr. Pumpy: mariano! How's the work load going?
	4:33pm mariano: Very light today, Mr. Pumpy, thanks. How's the whole remote-teaching thing going, and how's your pops doing?
	4:34pm Duckets in Belleville New Jersey: Totally killing it right now Sheila!
	4:35pm ifeelfatnsassy: It's (yet another) Bandcamp Friday today, too. Not sure if that was implied, but worth mention that artists get more if you buy on Bandcamp today.
	4:36pm Phoebe in Fanwood: Sheila B! You’re playing me home—it’s a long drive from Long Island back to NJ when it’s rush hour in the city. Thanks for the tunes!!
	4:36pm Mr. Pumpy: He's been doing pretty good with the home dialysis machine, which is more than I thought would happen. I stayed home last night and he had no problem hooking up and programming it. This is a huge relief for me. I read The Pedestrian by Bradbury with my students today. Good stuff. Most of them not turning their cameras on is becoming problematic, though. I am talking to a bunch of white rectangles! Glad you had a light day. I've been cleaning and organizing around here all week and back and forth to pops. I'm meeting a realtor here at 5...thinking about selling the place while the market is hot. I need one less thing on my plate...and I'm never here. Tired of being a landlord...blah blah blah.
	4:37pm Handy Haversack: You got a lotta rules, Mariano ... !
	4:37pm Phoebe in Fanwood: Also hi deborah, handy! I see you out there!
	4:37pm tim from champaign (now washington): Tardy but present!
	4:37pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Phoebe!
	4:38pm Tony Bayonne: Thx for the shout out, lol
	4:38pm Jett: $$$Help$$$
	4:39pm Deborah: @Handy Haversack: Good to hear. Slightly better; the throbbing is not quite as severe.
	4:39pm Jett: Joe McG is cool! thanks for bringing Sheila to us!
	4:39pm Deborah: Hi Phoebe in Fanwood!
	4:40pm tim from champaign (now washington): Joe McGasko! Eeeeeeeeee!
	4:40pm tim from champaign (now washington): Is this the bassline to Fascination Street?
	4:41pm Gurldoggie: Hi there from the wild west coast. Been listening for an hour, and wanted to chime in. Show sounds FANTASTIC.
	4:42pm Jett: @djsheilab I thought you mentioned to me that there would be no country on your show. I guess you re-evaluated your position.
	4:42pm Lil eddie from Texas: My bday is on the 23!
	4:43pm mariano: Glad to hear your dad can work the dialysis machine, Mr. P - that's gotta be a huge relief.
	4:43pm djsheilab: Hey Duckets in Belleville New Jersey, ifeelfatnsassy, Phoebe in Fanwood, Mr. Pumpy, tim from champaign + Gurldoggie!
	4:46pm djsheilab: We have an Eddie! Hey Lil Eddie from Texas!
	4:47pm Handy Haversack: I kind of want to hear Nico cover this one. Were it only possible.
	4:47pm mariano: I remember when the Leon Redbone cover of "Seduced" was a hit. There was a rumor back then too that he was a Zappa alter ego.
	4:49pm mariano: Handy: can probably be done with voice AI.
	4:49pm Cabbage: Hallooo All <3
	4:50pm mmeghan: i'm not crying you're crying!!!!!
	4:51pm listener james from westwood: I first heard this song on The Simpsons. Maybe the first season, even!
	4:52pm djsheilab: Hello Cabbage + mmeghan!
	4:53pm Handy Haversack: Mariano: Nico/Eidolon?
	4:56pm tim from champaign (now washington): Was the Weekend a Factory band?
	4:57pm mcdnyc: Weekend!
	4:58pm djsheilab: tim from champaign—I think they were on Rough Trade.
	4:58pm WM: @Handy Haversack: I like the word "eidolon" (image, phantom, ghost). I think Hart Crane uses it on one of his poems.
	4:59pm djsheilab: Anyone know the name of the squeaking instrument that's on a gazillion Brazilian records?
	5:00pm Handy Haversack: @WM: I think you're right!
	5:00pm Scott Williams: cuica - Hi Sheila!
	5:01pm djsheilab: Thank you Scott Williams! I've been wondering this for like 20 years!
	5:01pm Scott Williams: youtu.be...
	5:03pm tim from champaign (now washington): @Shelia and Scott - WFMU DJs who doubled my knowledge in the matter of one song.
	5:03pm matthew glass: love this weekend song. crazy good! and apt!
	5:03pm Scott Williams: cute little demo there, makes it sound like a monster!
	5:03pm Krys O.: Thanks for The Weekend! My fave.
	5:03pm tim from champaign (now washington): Wait - that doesn't make sense so how about "thank you for your knowledge!"
	5:05pm Barba Yiorgi: KWEE- ka
	5:05pm Smokestack: Cuica - pronounced KWEE-KA really fun to play samba instrument
	5:07pm Mika: That’s Cole Porter you know
	5:07pm WM: @Handy Haversack: "bleeding eidolon" in the poem Legend.
	5:09pm PaulRobeson1920: Hey hey my my
	5:09pm BH: Saying this from afar but it sounds like the New York City Board of Elections is an entity that still has Windows 98 on their computers
	5:10pm DjLorraine: Whisper...
	5:12pm dM from long valley NJ: you keep my days and week and life in balance. ive not been able to listen for several weeks but today im tuned in. thank you for the beautiful music. my week just got better
	5:12pm Tony Bayonne: My cat has not received a mail in ballot. Because he's a cat. Vote.
	5:12pm anon in LA, the state not the city: FANTABULOUS!
	5:13pm Phoebe in Fanwood: My GOD this is beautiful!!
	5:14pm anon in LA, the state not the city: who wants to dance?
	5:14pm Gurldoggie: This Rupa is so luxurious. You're breaking my heart over here.
	5:14pm DannyBoyNYC: Too bad about the Georgette Sayegh. Sounded good.
	5:14pm djsheilab: DannyBoyNYC—Ugh I know....CD player acting up.
	5:15pm djsheilab: Gurldoggie + anon in LA—Glad you're digging!
	5:15pm djsheilab: Thanks for your lovely note—dM from long valley NJ!
	5:17pm Jett: Is the instrument you are asking for the Cuica?
	5:18pm mariano: Doesn't NASA still use Fortran or Cobol or some such antiquated programming language?
	5:19pm Carmichael: I think they use punch cards, mariano.
	5:19pm Rick A.: Disco+Jazz=Prog!
	5:19pm djsheilab: This is definitely the longest song I've ever played on the radio, and I still don't want it to end!
	5:21pm mysilentface: Sheila - YOU are the little weaver bird! Thank you for weaving this beautiful show for us! And so educational...I've always wondered what that squeaky instrument was!
	5:23pm Barba Yiorgi: this Rupi track is amazing. thanks
	5:23pm mariano: Lol, Carm! Or wait, holy shit, punch-card computers were used in the early days of the space program from what I just learned: blogs.scientificamerican.com...
	5:24pm djsheilab: Barba Yiorgi—It really is quite something!
	5:25pm Tony Bayonne: This song needs another 8 minutes
	5:26pm Handy Haversack: I feel like it's just getting going!
	5:26pm yes: Rupa brings me joy
	5:27pm Carmichael: Pew! Pew!
	5:27pm Rick A.: Suite for Disco Dancing, the musicians must have been having a blast on this.
	5:28pm Handy Haversack: Also in a dead heat with Eartheater for best sleeve art of the afternoon.
	5:32pm Andres: Fantastic and plastic!!!
	5:33pm Stanley: That was fantastic!

	5:42pm mariano: Handy: if you like that Eartheater cover there's a Cheeseburger album cover I'm sure you'd love ;)
	5:43pm djsheilab: Russt44—Yeah, she's the real deal!
	5:43pm lex: This set is yummy!
	5:45pm djsheilab: lex—Sweet!
	5:45pm Handy Haversack: Mariano, I am a conduit for Kate's thanks to you. Maybe for the Cheeseburger cover, but likely there's another reason.
	5:47pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	5:47pm chris: the Queen!
	5:48pm Jason from Houston: BOOOOOOOM

	5:54pm ncjay: CHAI song is super cool

	5:54pm ncjay: Thanks for yet another lovely show, Sheila! hope to hear you next week.
	5:54pm BH: CD's are probably going to become literally obsolete eventually but I still like having physical copies of stuff, almost as a backup option in case the first option fails somehow
	5:55pm Despeinada from Texas: Very different sound! Excited!
	5:55pm Phoebe in Fanwood: Thank you Shelia Bee! You’ve been very good company, making the gridlock bearable :)

	3:34pm P-90: (That might have been Alvy’s way of letting Sheila know he wasn’t happy about her leaving him alone for four days)
	3:34pm PaulRobeson1920: Bummer about the sheets! at-least the cat didn't burn the house down! : )
	3:35pm Emily Rems: Alvy!!!!! No! My Lil' Irv lost his balance in my arms yesterday and clawed a huge gash into my chest. Kitty hijinx! Luv U Sheila :)

	4:06pm Handy Haversack: We just walked in from the vermouth store. What did Alvy Singer pee on? We feel that pain. Three cats. One rage pees. One can't aim. And one is so gossamer-furred that her poop sticks to her when she leaves the box ...
	4:06pm Layet Johnson: I just bought a Hardy 3-disc CD box set!! She rules!
	4:06pm anon in LA, the state not the city: a couple little hummingbirds brought me back to life yesterday morning in the midst of my continuing despair, i went out to fill the feeder and they were in th battle of a lifetime to own it and one actually landed on my thumb as i reached for the feeder to refresh the nectar suddenly i felt alive

	4:19pm Tony Bayonne: WFMU is for cats
	4:19pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	4:20pm Jett: I don't own a cat. I'm allergic to them, but cats love me. They all gravitate towards me and love to be around me. It's okay, they're wonderful. I give them my affection back. I am a big fan of Alvy Singer, the coolest cat.
	4:22pm Jett: I'm a big fan of Jacqueline Taieb! She's so cool.
	4:22pm Michael 98145: i feel like playing a record just to annoy the neighbors
	4:22pm DannyBoyNYC: Wow - what great record!
	4:22pm listener james from westwood: @Jett: I would love to have a cat in the joint, or two even, as I work from home (even before All This) and adore cats, but allergies were likewise my issue.
	4:22pm Tony Bayonne: My favorite WFMU artifact. I love this print. RIP Jim Flora. www.jimflora.com...
	4:24pm Michael 98145: SAULT - yet another WFMU discovery
	4:24pm Jett: @listener James from Westwood I hear ya, my friend. It's okay, I'm sure the cats would appreciate you.
	4:24pm a5vzener: Zuper zstuff this SAULT. Never heard this before.
	4:25pm djsheilab: a5vzener—They're hugely prolific! An album a year and they're all top notch.
	4:25pm Tony Bayonne: A lot of bangers in this block
	4:26pm Handy Haversack: Carm, you need a cat? At least one of ours is unpopular at any given moment, so I could send one along!
	4:28pm mariano: Don't mail cats. It never ends well. Believe me, I know.
	4:28pm Carmichael: Nope, Handy. Just a semi-serious observation.
	4:29pm Roberto: Don't male cats either if their desire is to be female or non-binary.

	4:30pm Bob: Chris Clark! Absolute dynamite!
	4:30pm a5vzener: My cat acts like a Proudboy numbnuts. He gets his ass kicked in cat fights and limps home, bloody.
	4:31pm Michael 98145: cattitude
	4:32pm Mr. Pumpy: mariano! How's the work load going?
	4:33pm mariano: Very light today, Mr. Pumpy, thanks. How's the whole remote-teaching thing going, and how's your pops doing?
	4:34pm Duckets in Belleville New Jersey: Totally killing it right now Sheila!
	4:35pm ifeelfatnsassy: It's (yet another) Bandcamp Friday today, too. Not sure if that was implied, but worth mention that artists get more if you buy on Bandcamp today.
	4:36pm Phoebe in Fanwood: Sheila B! You’re playing me home—it’s a long drive from Long Island back to NJ when it’s rush hour in the city. Thanks for the tunes!!
	4:36pm Mr. Pumpy: He's been doing pretty good with the home dialysis machine, which is more than I thought would happen. I stayed home last night and he had no problem hooking up and programming it. This is a huge relief for me. I read The Pedestrian by Bradbury with my students today. Good stuff. Most of them not turning their cameras on is becoming problematic, though. I am talking to a bunch of white rectangles! Glad you had a light day. I've been cleaning and organizing around here all week and back and forth to pops. I'm meeting a realtor here at 5...thinking about selling the place while the market is hot. I need one less thing on my plate...and I'm never here. Tired of being a landlord...blah blah blah.
	4:37pm Handy Haversack: You got a lotta rules, Mariano ... !
	4:37pm Phoebe in Fanwood: Also hi deborah, handy! I see you out there!
	4:37pm tim from champaign (now washington): Tardy but present!
	4:37pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Phoebe!
	4:38pm Tony Bayonne: Thx for the shout out, lol
	4:38pm Jett: $$$Help$$$
	4:39pm Deborah: @Handy Haversack: Good to hear. Slightly better; the throbbing is not quite as severe.
	4:39pm Jett: Joe McG is cool! thanks for bringing Sheila to us!
	4:39pm Deborah: Hi Phoebe in Fanwood!
	4:40pm tim from champaign (now washington): Joe McGasko! Eeeeeeeeee!
	4:40pm tim from champaign (now washington): Is this the bassline to Fascination Street?
	4:41pm Gurldoggie: Hi there from the wild west coast. Been listening for an hour, and wanted to chime in. Show sounds FANTASTIC.
	4:42pm Jett: @djsheilab I thought you mentioned to me that there would be no country on your show. I guess you re-evaluated your position.
