Listener comments!
	🥁 ♥ 11:56am Sean in Bristol UK: Good afternoon Irene, hello one and all. Great photo, where was that taken?
	🥁 ♥ 11:57am βrian: I didn't know they had outdoors in NJ!
	♥ 11:58am Irene Trudel: Good afternoon Sean, βrian and all listening in today. That was taken yesterday at Paterson Great Falls in New Jersey.
	🥁 ♥ 12:00pm listener james from westwood: Howdy, Irene and all! Sensational snap of the Falls!
	🥁 ♥ 12:01pm βrian: Actually, I recognized the falls from the movie.
	🥁 ♥ 12:01pm David (in London): Afternoon groovers. Hello Irene.
	🥁 ♥ 12:02pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): hello, Irene and listener palz and everyone!
	🥁 ♥ 12:03pm Threemoons: Heyo. Deep need for mellow vibes today, so headed on over.
	12:04pm Annabella in Crewkerne UK: Hi Irene, greetings fellow listeners
	🥁 ♥ 12:07pm Threemoons: Oh how I LOVE me some Buena Vista Social Club....
	🥁 ♥ 12:08pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they) ⚧: yesssss. I tried to do "Chan Chan" for karaoke, and it was challenging! Love this song.
	12:08pm Listener Robert: Ooo, I've never seen the falls from down that low, only from the pedestrian bridge or above.
	🥁 ♥ 12:09pm Threemoons: @Mx BB -- if you didn't see the PBS special/documentary about BVSC, go dig it up...IIRC it's also on all the major streaming services. Have watched it several time. Worth it on all levels, especially the ending....
	12:10pm Listener Robert: I should have written "Oo-oo-oo-oo" to go with your, "By a waterfall...".
	♥ 12:12pm coelacanth∅: hi Irene and all
	♥ 12:15pm Irene Trudel: Howdy to you, james, David, Mx. Baba Bee, Threemoons, Annabella, Robert and coelacanth∅! All in good company today.
	♥ 12:18pm Irene Trudel: Robert, we first stumbled on the bottom end of the falls, then drove around and found the top. Can't believe we never went there before.
	🥁 ♥ 12:22pm Sean in Bristol UK: A beautiful spot,
	🥁 ♥ 12:22pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Threemoons: cool! I saw it when it first came out, but not since. I could surely use a refresh of it, and probably appreciate it on a deeper level than I did back when.
	12:22pm Listener Robert: Ms. Trudel, the falls would be a great tourist attraction if only the good views weren't in a narrow gorge that limits their visibility. Meanwhile, ha-ha, I had in mind the very different "I'm calling you" lyrics from the Indian Love Song. I figured "by a waterfall" was in there somewhere, seems anything fits the Indian Love Song.
	♥ 12:29pm coelacanth∅: lesson of today: we can be Thankful for narrow gorges that limit visibility.
	🥁 ♥ 12:30pm David (in London): That's a good maxim to live by Coela.
	🥁 ♥ 12:30pm Stork: Hi Irene and all Irene-ians.
	♥ 12:34pm coelacanth∅: hi David, Stork
	🥁 ♥ 12:34pm Stork: Hi, coel! Hi David!
	🥁 ♥ 12:38pm Michael 98145: Fall snuck up on us
	♥ 12:41pm Irene Trudel: Hiya Stork and Michael. Yeah, I was hoping for one more good beach day yesterday but we got a little of that September chill yesterday morning and just decided on a random drive. We'd been meaning to see the Paterson Falls and went on the spur of the moment. A good choice.
	♥ 12:48pm Jay S: Good morning from the West Coast, Irene and everybody! Ah, the Lovin' Spoonful's Six O'Clock - haven't heard that in years. Lovely!
	12:52pm Listener Robert: For me?
	♥ 12:54pm alanr: quietly listening as usual, while working in the home studio (except when I roasted an eggplant on the stovetop for later baba ghanouj). Lots of garlic should go well with Irene Trudel's program.
	🥁 ♥ 12:56pm Michael 98145: time for coffee here
	🥁 ♥ 12:59pm βrian: Oh, there'll probably be a beach day or two in October.
	🥁 ♥ 1:00pm βrian: Last year we delayed a heavy outdoor project until mid-October to avoid the heat. 85 and sunny, as it happens. We damn near died.
	♥ 1:09pm HyperDose: What a beautiful song to sneak into class late to
	♥ 1:14pm Irene Trudel: Hi Jay, alanr and Hyperdose! Quiet listening, coffee and cooking-- what could be better?
	🥁 ♥ 1:32pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): @12:54alanr: baba ganouj is one of my favorite babas! lotsa garlic, please! hey there, HyperDose!
	🥁 ♥ 1:33pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Irene: enjoying these sounds while heating up a tasty elk bolognese with grits.
	♥ 1:35pm Irene Trudel: All sound tasty!
	1:35pm Constant Follower: Late to the party as usual. Hi Irene, All <3
	🥁 ♥ 1:42pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello to all. Irene, your photo makes me want to cross the river immediately!
	🥁 ♥ 1:43pm KevinfromBayRidge: Actually "rivers".
	🥁 ♥ 1:44pm chris in the redwoods: been listening and lurking/working. decloaking to say, yay for Ribeiro! hello to all!
	🥁 ♥ 1:46pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): never before did I ever think of such a thing such as elk bolognese with grits, but it's what happened, and it is tasty and nourishing. life continues to surprise me. and yes to this Catherine Ribeiro + Alpes, new to me as well!
	🥁 ♥ 1:48pm chris in the redwoods: Mx Baba Bee, i adore the entire Ribeiro ouvre, with or w/out les Alpes. highly recommend! :)
	♥ 1:48pm Irene Trudel: Constant Follower, Kevin and chris! Glad you're joining us in these waters.
	🥁 ♥ 1:49pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they) (in the Doug Firs): chris in the redwoods: I'll take that suggestion, thank you!
	🥁 ♥ 1:51pm KevinfromBayRidge: Nice...as long as "these waters' aren't going over the falls! Heh, heh
	🥁 ♥ 1:53pm David (in London): This vibe is suiting me very nicely right now. Belated hello, Stork.
	🥁 ♥ 1:54pm chris in the redwoods: two for Monday. yay!
	🥁 ♥ 1:54pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they) (in the Doug Firs): WFMU is a constant source of nourishment for me, thank you all who support this endeavor!
	♥ 1:54pm coelacanth∅: excellent painting soundtrack
	🥁 ♥ 1:55pm David (in London): Mx Bee, time for more tea, I think.
	♥ 1:55pm HyperDose: Taking you with me to the UPS store. Too beautiful out not to have a soundtrack :)
	🥁 ♥ 1:55pm Brian in UK: Hello Irene & folks. It is a beautiful late September here.
	🥁 ♥ 1:55pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they) (in the Doug Firs): David: yes, indeed, and it's high tea now, if elk counts! :-)
	🥁 ♥ 1:56pm YETI BOB: Here's a book plug for "An American River: From Paradise to Superfund" by Mary Bruno, all about the Passaic River, which she navigates end-to-end by kayak, of course there's a great chapter about the Great Falls thisamericanriver.com
	🥁 ♥ 1:56pm Brian in UK: Tea, scones, & home made jam.
	🥁 ♥ 1:56pm YETI BOB: Doug from JC turned me on to that book, and it's a good 'un.
	🥁 ♥ 1:58pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: A late good morning-ish to you, Irene!
	🥁 ♥ 1:58pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they) (in the Doug Firs): My favorite meal in NYC is at Tea and Sympathy, anyone know how that place is faring through the pandemic?
	♥ 1:59pm Irene Trudel: Thanks, Mx. Baba Bee! And hello, Brian, YETIBOB and Summer and Michael and Sylvia
	♥ 2:01pm Irene Trudel: YETI BOB, Not surprised to hear of that book and assessment of the Passaic River. The scene was a little spoiled by the stinkiness of the water.
	🥁 ♥ 2:02pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): I like to click on the link to see who else has clicky-starred a track and see the WFMU history of programs and listeners therein. Fascinating!
	🥁 ♥ 2:06pm βrian: Just had a lovely salad with garden greens and cherry tomatoes, topped with crumbled 12-year cheddar. Good, sturdy bread to accompany. Oh my.
	🥁 ♥ 2:08pm David (in London): Hey S&M&S
	🥁 ♥ 2:11pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Hi, David!
	🥁 ♥ 2:15pm YETI BOB: Irene: The Passaic is improving, but it still has a long way to go. I grew up right along it, but in a much less-polluted stretch, closer to the Great Swamp and the river's origin.
	🥁 ♥ 2:16pm βrian: I grew up near the Flint River. We stayed clear.
	♥ 2:24pm Irene Trudel: Glad to hear that, YETI BOB. It's a beautiful sight, stuck in the middle also of an extremely downtrodden area in Paterson, NJ. I know the folks from Speed the Plough live nearby in one of the prettier areas. And βrian, what I've heard about Flint is unfortunately quite heartbreaking. I'd wondered if this Vijay Iyer piece is his tribute to the people in that area.
	🥁 ♥ 2:42pm doctorjazz: Been here but busy, just checking in for a quick hi! (This is lovely!)
	🥁 ♥ 2:45pm Webhamster Henry: "Somehow I Never Could Believe" is from Kurt Weill's "Street Scene"
	♥ 2:46pm Irene Trudel: Hey hey, doctorjazz. Listening in is more important than commenting. And, yes indeed, you did recognize the Weill tune, Henry.
	2:51pm Peter K.: Lyrics by Langston Hughes.
	♥ 2:55pm Irene Trudel: Thanks for all your kind comments and listenership today! Time to float away on the stream, but I'll be back next Monday at noon. Stay tuned for Ken's Last Ever Radio Extravaganza: wfmu.org...
	🥁 ♥ 2:56pm David (in London): Thanks for a great show today Irene.
	🥁 ♥ 2:56pm chris in the redwoods: thank you, Irene! have great weeks, all.
	♥ 2:57pm HyperDose: Many thanks, Irene!!!
	2:57pm Constant Follower: Thanks Irene <3
	🥁 ♥ 2:58pm listener james from westwood: Much obliged, Irene—thanks!
	2:58pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): Here comes "Just When I Needed You Most", a nice sound collage stew. Here: wfmu.org...
	♥ 3:05pm coelacanth∅: Beautiful program Irene Thanks!
