	9:08am TerrDE: Clay will be going to Heaven, he's served his time in Hell
	9:08am Rob Bric-à-brac: ↳ PigeonsAndRust @9:07 Ken must have, surely?
	9:10am rx "rexy" scabin: Clay is cornering John.
	9:10am BillyLundun: I love Clay's impersonation of John!
	9:10am Andrew: Woof
	9:10am luka: (yeah)
	9:10am BillyLundun: Ok now John plays Clay and Clay plays John
	9:11am nortonjutland: sparks are fly'in
	9:11am Hot Rodney: Let’s trigger some more Wake samples. I still want to hear “yo, ding-dong, man, ding-dong” again
	9:11am Sundog: East coast shadow boxing. Hilarious
	9:11am Fredericks: Clay is hyper-aggressive this morning.
	9:11am combokid: rulebook LOL good one Clay
	9:11am LiXiviated Life: John, Put your ego aside
	9:11am PigeonsAndRust: "Where's the beef?" Right here!

	9:13am Andrew: I do resent the notion that MTV music is somehow lesser than other music.
	9:14am Kirsten 🍀 Nauset CC: Clay has done heroic work getting us through this week, through the hell and terror of this new chapter in America. I can't even imagine the strength and discipline and.self sacrifice it took to show up every freaking morning and put on a show to help his listeners wake up to another day of carnage and terrorism. If he needs to vent, it's because he just pulled off the hardest week in years.
	9:14am P-90: the good ol’ “gay divulge”
	9:14am Sigmund & Karl: OOOPS, WE FORGOT COUPLES ARE SUPPOSED TO USE ALL CAPS
	9:15am Sundog: Following along = staying present
	9:15am LiXiviated Life: No ego No shame Freedom
	9:15am geo in jc: ↳ Kirsten 🍀 Nauset CC @9:14 True that.
	9:15am common: it's just dirty. people like dirty. heee
	9:15am Boobobob.plasticland: John .I'm Envious...I want an AIR/Threadgill tee shirt
	9:15am PaulRobeson1925: It’s not the shock docket, JA. It’s the face docket and S.A.M wants to know how teeth work and all the rest
	👻 9:16am bradford: Don't mess with the dirty.
	9:16am Fredericks: When I think about you, I tickle myself.
	9:16am Lizardner Dave !: "It gives the vibe without the Henley" I do believe we have the next Wake n Bake marathon t shirt slogan.
	9:16am Asheville Jon: you guys just need to mud wrestle out all of this tension
	9:17am Andrew: Yikes John. Projection is in the room with you.
	9:17am Lower East: Clay Pigeon is a real one. John Allen is always a bummer.
	9:17am WoodsOfMaine: Boys of Summer was written by Mike Campbell.
	9:17am Creston: This is great! I hope there is 3 hours of this lol
	9:17am Avspuk: Aren't shrink sessions supposed to be private? Not certain which one of this pair is the shrink & which one the punter on the couch, tho. Maybe they're taking turns?
	9:17am space clothes in Fairfield: Dude. Give clay a fwiggin hug
	9:18am Chris S: Wow bad vibes this am
	👻 9:18am Mike H: We need to get the rock 'n' roll therapist in here, pronto
	9:18am florida: J A sounds like one of them borne again dudes , great dynamic
	9:18am Sundog: ↳ Avspuk @9:17 Hahaha Rite-on
	9:18am Lizardner Dave !: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @9:17 And he pitched it to Tom Petty first, Petty passed and then when it became a huge hit banned the song from being played on the radio on his tour bus.
	9:18am Christy D: This is painful
	9:18am Sundog: Two punters
	9:18am TerrDE: ... Spice Girls wanna know too
	9:18am bobob plasticland: I talked to Henry Threadgill sitting at the door taking cover charge for the Art Ensemble at the Blackstone Hotel in Chicago
	9:18am Cassettivity: @christy D but you can't look away can you
	9:19am LiXiviated Life: John is tight Clay is looooose
	9:19am Fredericks: You are being mean on the air.
	9:19am ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore): ↳ Sigmund & Karl @9:14 I gotta be honest - and I know this will ruffles some feathers - but I don't understand the en masse love of Fred & Alan. All they ever do is come on and complain about their job, refer to people as animals, and self promote their appearances when they happen. If you hate your job so much, get another one. Referring to people as animals is dehumanizing, which we ordinarily deride people for doing.
	9:19am lillyVanilly: ↳ Lower East @9:17 +1
	9:19am Panther: Toddophonic is like the most angry person on FMU
	9:19am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Lizardner Dave ! @9:18 Yeah, there’s a great video of him explaining how it almost didn’t make it to Henly.
	9:20am Panther: We don’t want politics!!!
	9:20am PaulRobeson1925: Into this life we’re thrown
	9:21am Cassettivity: Clay & John are our modern age Laurel & Hardy. Now we don't do the physical slapstick, we jab about feelings
	9:21am lazy pierogi: ❤️‍🩹
	9:21am LiXiviated Life: W&B is a refuge from the BS of the world.
	9:21am Jessica B: You handled it just fine, Clay ❤️
	9:22am planet tyler: we love you clay, you did perfectly
	9:22am Creston: My least favorite dusty shows are political
	👻 9:22am Garrity: ↳ LiXiviated Life @9:21 Agreed!
	9:22am Calamity K.: Clay is King
	9:22am Christy D: @ cassettivity true. Today anyway. Most of the time I change the dial when I hear the Henley every Friday at 9am
	9:22am florida: Todd was bein Todd that's how he felt. No harm No foul
	9:22am Andrew: Oof
	9:23am Lana in Bucks County: Clay I count on your balanced views, peace and love vibes, and All One. You handled it with your usual grace. Thank you for sharing that, and for not adding fuel to the fire.
	9:23am Fredericks: Clay fears the gallows. Rightfully.
	9:23am Panther: Pidge Rocks!!! Toddophonic should do another toni basil interview
	👻 9:23am Audrey from Colombia: ↳ Panther @9:19 I’m not sure; Todd has strong political views, and that might come across as passionate or even hostile at times
	9:23am Roosty: CP, I was there and there was no tone of complacency or naivete despite the lack of vocalizing—dont u worry
	9:23am Panther: Agreed
	9:24am WoodsOfMaine: I mostly avoid news/politics these days. Never thought I’d see the end of the empire (John is really discounting this) but here we are.
	👻 9:24am Handy Haversack: Clay, that's not politics, that's addictive technology in action. Engagement is money. You're being played. Politics is direct action, mutual aid, and community. Get off the socials and get out in the streets.
	9:24am Lizardner Dave !: I listen to Wake to escape the news cycle. Really that's why I come to WFMU in general. The DJ's can say whatever they want and if they want to discuss politics that's their right but it's also my right to turn the dial if I don't feel like hearing about it.
	9:24am Lana in Bucks County: Wise sentiment, beautifully stated, John.
	9:24am Woo: There's talk of getting rid of pennies again. I am pro-penny. Pennies forever.
	9:24am jakee.jc: Here here, JA!
	9:24am PaulRobeson1925: S.A.M play somthing to make Mr.Clay happy
	9:25am Crispy: so happy to hear humans on the radio :-) keep on truckin' dudes
	9:25am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): recognize the true enemy
	9:25am jakee.jc: The secret word here is “capitalism”
	9:25am Nick K: Clay I listen to u for many years and love your show because ur not into all that shit thanks for being a relief from that
	👻 9:25am Audrey from Colombia: Clay is very sensitive and tends to overthink situations that aren’t really a big deal
	9:25am Panther: We have been divided!! Part of the plan!!
	9:25am jakee.jc: Yes Handy!
	9:25am Cassettivity: @handy right on. Most revolutionary thing someone could do these days is support their neighbors and local community, sadly.
	9:25am florida: this dude vote for the orange one ( JA )
	9:25am Asheville Jon: ALL THE NETWORKS!
	👻 9:26am Handy Haversack: ↳ jakee.jc @9:25 Hope you had a good birthday, jakee!
	9:26am northguineahills: social media can be a positive if profit isn't the motive. proof in the pudding, wfmu.... /mmmm, puddding drools
	9:26am Planet Ø Tyler: Sending Clay a million hugs. And no, Clay is not just being sensitive. He's a responsible citizen and is taking this dangerous admin seriously
	9:26am LiXiviated Life: Ezra Klein had an interesting take on this recently. In the past we were exploited for our labor Now we’re being exploited for our attention. It’s what you have that’s of value to them. Spend your attention wisely.
	9:26am jeanjae: It's the old "divide and conquer." I weep for the future.
	9:26am PaulRobeson1925: “Can’t you see we are somthing somthing controlled by T.V?”
	9:26am Steve Del Sol: I just jumped in here. I was in one of Jimmy Carters connected CETA program. while in college. The fight never stops.
	9:26am ⚙️: I wish we were listening to nails being hammered and saws or whatever right now. Or some Spotify laundering or whatever else is cool
	9:26am northguineahills: ↳ jakee.jc @9:25 have a wicked cumpleanos!
	9:26am Planet Ø Tyler: ↳ LiXiviated Life @9:26 Nice
	9:27am Polyus: Was there ever a time Americans were all on the same page about anything? Now we just have constant access to the things our neighbors believe and it seems bad, but they probably always thought that stuff anyway.
	9:27am Toothgrinder Tom: We’re all negotiating the new political reality.
	9:27am Sean Bikes: John's a taper? Interesting
	9:27am Nick K: We have nothing to worry about except death
	9:27am Egghead: He’s right. The fed government has three branches. And there are 50 states and they each have three branches. Power is diffused in this country. Look at California vs Florida. Yet we can still stay together.
	9:27am Lizardner Dave !: I'm so worried about the new baggage system they have at Heathrow.
	9:28am PaulRobeson1925: I have a 45 Kimber. JA! When it’s nice out we shoot it off the 2nd story balcony towards the ground. Ear plugs are a must a must! Two hands at all times. The thing weighs as much as a 2 year old
	9:28am ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore): ↳ Lizardner Dave ! @9:24 Your last sentence is what people yesterday during the Toddophonic Todd segment were missing. The DJs are free to talk about what they want, and you don't get to tell them to "shut up and play music". Direct quote from yesterday. Don't like it? Turn the dial. Or become a program director at a radio station.
	9:28am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): yesterday my boss proposed a women's march of women who all have concealed carry permits
	9:28am Steve Del Sol: ↳ Nick K @9:27 What we are worrying about are MANY deaths all at once. For someones design.
	9:28am Andy: John ask Clay what he thinks about the halting of the historic march of labor
	9:28am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): ↳ bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢) @9:28 images.jacobinmag.com... like so
	9:28am LiXiviated Life: I’ve decided that There’s nothing I can say that will make much of a difference It’s only what I do that changes things. Be the change you want in this world.
	9:28am Zinn The Mood: Absolutely right on, John. The intentional constriction of what’s acceptable to talk about, dictated by corporate mainstream media, makes it incumbent on all of us, in places like this and in public face to face, to speak and act in acknowledgment that they’re both lying to us, and that there truly is another way for a better world. Like John and Yoko put on billboards, “if you want it.” Speak up, and act out, folks. Or we perish.
	9:28am Pedro in Arlington: Let it out, Clay. You've got a tough gig trying to lift the spirits of thousands-millions every weekday morning.
	9:28am Sundog: Ketchin tadpoles on Uncle Olympic farm
	9:29am Lana in Bucks County: "Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I'll meet you there." ~ Rumi
	9:29am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): clay's kind of taoist
	9:29am PigeonsAndRust: ↳ LiXiviated Life @9:26 I like that and will remember that
	9:29am Nick K: Get off Facebook and all the other social media sites it drives division
	9:29am northguineahills: ↳ Egghead @9:27 remember 16 years ago when FL was purple?
	9:29am Planet Ø Tyler: ↳ ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore) @9:28 And the ones with demands are also ones who don't donate lol
	9:29am Thurston Howl: The dumbing down has come to roost.Divide and conquer is in progress.
	👻 9:29am Noir Lover: We're all going to get our noses shoved in it until things swing the other way. Gotta just hang on.
	9:29am Yorkville Crooner: Right on, Clay
	9:30am Andy: too much ism and schism
	9:30am Pedro in Arlington: And lift your own spirits glisteners by staying away from all the oligarch-controlled poison peddled by oligarchs. Watch old movies from a better time.
	9:30am ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore): ↳ Planet Ø Tyler @9:29 Yeah, all randos no one has ever seen comment before.
	👻 9:30am Mike H: We're more alike than we are different
	9:30am Yorkville Crooner: Lot of repub family, lot of left friends. Love everybody anyway. Exhausted by the anger in the world.
	9:31am Sundog: ✌out. Need some rockn' roll
	9:31am Old as Dirt: It's been awhile...but I really love and appreciate you Clay!
	👻 9:31am Charles in Chicago: Um, they don't just want to to work and stay out of trouble. They want to round people up and deport them.
	9:31am Egghead: ↳ northguineahills @9:29 California was also more purple. But the system still works.
	9:31am PaulRobeson1925: Baby? I am America
	9:32am florida: sounds like a guidance consular session in high school
	9:32am PaulRobeson1925: Yes! All people are born innately good
	9:32am OnTheTrain: I agree people are lost in an alternate reality, of pseudo-news . Drones , Aliens ( people from somewhere else), The general lack of understanding of Taxes, Inflation, The role and power of politicians. The Cult of personality.
	9:32am Kirsten 🍀 Nauset CC: This background music needs to end...omg...🎼🎼🎼🎼
	9:32am Starkville Bill: I'm out
	9:32am Toothgrinder Tom: What’s at stake is the rule of law.
	9:33am Pedro in Arlington: Funny enough, long before the internet and when Clay moved to NYC, a horrible toxic immigrant from Australia bought a tabloid NYC paper and started featuring a certain sad, dishonest celebrity. And here we are.
	9:33am TerrDE: Jazz, I've heard of it
	9:33am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): uh oh rexedog is coming
	👻 9:33am Charles in Chicago: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @9:32 can't agree with that. human nature is complex, we are scheming, devious, self-interested creatures
	9:33am OnTheTrain: ↳ Kirsten 🍀 Nauset CC @9:32 Can we get them to play "Cult of personality" by Living Colour ?
	9:33am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): just joking
	9:33am Steve Del Sol: Populism lives in each eye, uniquely, of each adherent. That is why it appears so chaotic.
	9:34am PaulRobeson1925: www.jstor.org... The Bomb
	9:34am ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore): ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:33 I that's more due to nurture than nature though.
	👻 9:34am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Steve Del Sol @9:33 populism failed miserably in the late 19th century and it will fail again
	9:34am JG: Didn't Benny Goodman bring his band to the Soviets as an act of good will? When was that -Fifties?
	9:34am Planet Ø Tyler: JA is making good points but a Sieg Heil in front of the WH, and applauded!!!, moved things to another level
	9:34am Asheville Jon: Clay is just gonna tease us on this story, kinda like the fake JA Deep Purple story
	9:34am TerrDE: Shadows on the side walk.
	9:35am Mennlinn Rebarts: Everyone should visit the bomb museum in Hiroshima.
	👻 9:35am Charles in Chicago: ↳ ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore) @9:34 "it's complicated". but i don't think you can just say people are good, or bad. we are both, mixed together
	9:35am ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore): ↳ Planet Ø Tyler @9:34 And the amount of people defending and sane-washing that moment is INSANE.
	9:35am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @9:34 OK
	9:35am Steve Del Sol: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @9:33 Exactly!! Never should have been allowed to own any kind of news organization.
	9:35am Brian from Charlottesville: I’m just loving all of this. Thank you, Gents.
	👻 9:35am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Planet Ø Tyler @9:34 yeah fuck that guy. fuck 'em all.
	9:36am Hot Rodney: Oooh there’s a Deloris Telescope tape on Discogs right now
	9:36am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): i wish zinn the mood was here
	9:36am Steve Del Sol: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:34 Of course. Leaves lots of wreckage though.
	9:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: In a couple of days Drumpf has done more with Executive Power to recycle the Constitution into Bathroom Tissue than anyone has even conceived of. Of course it was always his strategy to overwhelm us with Bullsh*t Outrage ...& actual Sewage - unit we simply run out of diapers for him. This has been in the playbook since Machiavelli... Anyone thinks they can sit it out & be NonPolitical is still in denial.
	9:36am Zinn The Mood: We cannot be inert, scrolling our phones and needing to be entertained 24/7, while the cost of living skyrockets and healthcare is administered middleman insurance companies denying us care. It’s called empathy and compassion, the engines of society. Just because it might not be happening to you doesn’t mean it’s not a serious crisis that threatens to shred that which keeps this whole thing together. The “Each Against All” system of capitalism, of codified profiteering of everything, is literally killing the planet and the people.
	9:37am Planet Ø Tyler: ↳ Brian from Charlottesville @9:35 I love this too. Love that WFMU is made of real people!
	9:37am lankylad: Not boring JA!
	9:37am Tim in Woodstock: Not boring!
	👻 9:37am Karl: So what you're saying was that you were the brass band
	9:37am Lizardner Dave !: I want the full Clay Pigeon autobiography audiobook.
	9:37am TerrDE: Telescope opened for Ningen Isu . Whom, I've never heard on FMU !
	9:37am OnTheTrain: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:36 Correction "Lord Combover" has enacted his edict of Orange Power.
	9:38am PaulRobeson1925: Clay is an American Band
	9:38am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): ↳ Zinn The Mood @9:36 thank you
	9:38am 212311!: not boring! Clay is wonderful!
	👻 9:38am Noir Lover: There's a doc called "Soundtrack to a Coup d'etat" out now. It's partially about how the US gov used jazz musicians to promote colonial agenda. Everyone should see it. Beautiful film.
	9:38am ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore): ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:35 I guess my point is that we're born as blank slates. We have no idiosyncrasies, no motivation beyond our base needs being met, because we don't know any better. Then we are shaped by those around us, and the environment we are brought up in.
	9:38am Mennlinn Rebarts: ↳ TerrDE @9:37 Ningen Isu = "human chair"?
	9:38am PaulRobeson1925: The internet is a cowards place
	9:38am Pedro in Arlington: See this film about America exporting its finest culture and worst anti-democratic foreign policy. www.imdb.com...
	9:38am Bobb Milwaukee: that's better than my band plastic land did..we only played CBGB and uncle floyd
	9:39am PigeonsAndRust: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @9:34 I think I'd like to read that. More forgotten and even more awful in terms of scale were the fire raids. I recommend an ancient paperback "A Torch to the Enemy" by Martin Cardin, 1960. I just pulled it down from the shelf. By the end of July 1945 we incinerated 178 square miles of 69 cities in Japan
	9:39am Lana in Bucks County: Really enjoying this discussion, hitting some great insights, sharing deep history, thank you so much.
	9:39am Rob Bric-à-brac: MELLOW BED FOR PRESIDENT!
	9:39am jennyfruit: not boring and Todd is right to be fired up
	9:39am OnTheTrain: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @9:38 Even better is watch Brain Dead www.imdb.com...
	👻 9:39am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Bobb Milwaukee @9:38 But what's better than Uncle Floyd?
	9:39am TerrDE: I've had the joy of voting for myself. I didn't win. State senator would have been a good winter job.
	9:39am Dr Mabusa: The mellow bed seems to be the key.
	9:40am Lana in Bucks County: Oh too precious, singing to the mellow bed!
	9:40am Yorkville Crooner: Right on, Clay, right on
	9:40am Planet Ø Tyler: Clay you are a butterfly!
	9:40am Ivan: John is the crow
	9:40am lankylad: John is a squirrel (pre-crushed)
	9:41am rx "rexy" scabin: Clay is a pigeon.
	9:41am Thurston Howl: Any online gambling apps taking bets on when’s the first impeachment?
	9:41am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ PigeonsAndRust @9:39 Very reputable man & work. Thank you
	9:42am rx "rexy" scabin: @rx "rexy" scabin not in the sense of a sucker but in the sense of the noble bird.
	9:42am Fredericks: Todd is an alternative voice to the compliant MSM.
	👻 9:42am Garrity: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:39 Love Uncle Floyd UHF68
	9:42am LiXiviated Life: 1.Right Understanding 2. Right Thought 3. Right Speech 4. Right Action 5. Right Livelihood 6. Right Effort 7. Right Mindfulness 8. Right Concentration
	9:42am Yorkville Crooner: Your friend Ellis, Clay
	9:43am GiB: lsd
	9:43am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @9:41 Dr. Michihiko Hachiya
	9:43am Fredericks: ↳ Polyus @9:27 World War II got us pretty tight.
	9:43am common: drugs, mmmmkay
	9:43am Matty Cannabis: We have a lot more common interests than people realize. Billionaires have divided us. It needs to be talked about. My yoga teacher said yesterday, "I can't stay quiet any longer." It's unavoidable when our democracy has been perverted and hijacked. It's our duty to speak up.
	9:43am JG: ↳ Garrity @9:42 Wish they saved those tapes. I don't think they did
	9:43am Egghead: 99 bottles of beer on the wall
	9:43am TerrDE: Capybara would be Clay's animal.
	9:44am PC77: diggin' the dialogue
	9:44am GiB: Picture yourself in the station w Johnny..
	9:44am Dr Mabusa: Squirrels love peanuts when have a heart traps are set. Caught 14 last year. Relocated them all to better climes. Turns out they love a mellow bed on the car radio.
	9:44am PaulRobeson1925: The Internet is a bigger flop than the moving image
	9:44am Jack McGuire: Capybara song would be great bed music RIGHT NOW.
	9:44am Egghead: Take one down pass it around
	9:44am Brian from Charlottesville: @Matty Cannibis. Right on!!!
	9:45am TerrDE: LSD cures the common cold. There are side effects. Don't operate heavy machinery.
	9:45am bk & Eugene in Mass: That back track sounds a lot like aruarian dance by nujabes
	9:45am Sundog: ↳ Egghead @9:44 Keep on chuglin
	9:45am Egghead: ↳ Dr Mabusa @9:44 That shit is nuts!!!
	9:45am Roosty: 🤨
	9:45am Melisa: I’m enjoying the conversation. It feels honest.
	9:45am Jack McGuire: Busted.
	9:45am Roosty: totes busted JA
	9:45am vixo: Purple Barrels
	9:45am PC77: instead of being depressed I'm spending the next 4 yrs saying "I fckn tried to tell ya"....fafo
	👻 9:46am Garrity: ↳ JG @9:43 Any on YouTube? Never looked.
	9:46am PaulRobeson1925: The internet is a cowards place. Rate my professor is a cowards place

	9:46am Zinn The Mood: Need more folks willing to critique the fundamental nature of America’s past and its long-standing role in the world as imperialist capitalist pillager. Can’t be content just to have cheap goods to fill up your basement and attic with, when they’re increasingly made by child slave labor in SE Asia. We’ve become too soft and alienated from real life. This isn’t just about Trump. It’s about what American culture has been conditioned to be, by powerful corporate propaganda, that the main goal in life is to own property and acquire material things. We have the means to get ensure housing, food and clothing for all. Why the fuck not? Because a small cabal of obscenely rich oligarchs have convinced you that it’s an Each Against All world of individualism. The American Dream, in this sense, is an abject failure.
	9:47am P-90: Akira Takasaki

	👻 9:59am Listener Bryan (the Professor): I wish I could be as complacent/chill as you, John, but the move to stop NIH approvals is 100% a fascist power grab. It's designed to hit places exactly like NYC: research centers and universities being cowed into submission.
	9:59am McGroovey: My kids are directly threatened by things the new administration is already doing. People are responsible for their own ignorance. I have to hold the people who voted for this guy responsible for the harm to my kids, and my friends and neighbors

	10:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: There is the situation that Drumpf is in his Second Term. This means he is both a Lame Duck ...& a Felon completely off the leash. What happens to the Electoral Process & all manner of Government functions as we've known them remains to be seen. Drumpf's objective obvsly is to dismantle them utterly.

	10:02am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ McGroovey @9:59 Worth remembering that Drumpf's lead in the Popular Vote over Kamala was truly miniscule. Add the people who Voted for someone besides them - Drumpf got a Minority of the Votes. & the people who sat this Election out were numerous. Half the Country hates him.
	10:02am TerrDE: Which direction Orange doesn't exist ?

	10:03am MeMo BoingBoing: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:02 Yes! And we will have midterm elections
	10:03am Zinn The Mood: How ‘bout some George Carlin, folks? “There is just enough bullshit to hold things together in this country. Bullshit is the glue that binds us as a nation. Where would we be without our safe, familiar, American bullshit? ‘Land of the free, home of the brave, the American dream, all men are equal, justice is blind, the press is free, your vote counts, business is honest, the good guys win, the police are on your side, God is watching you, your standard of living will never decline… and everything is going to be just fine’ - The official national bullshit story. I call it the American okie doke. Every one of those items is provably untrue at one level or another. But we believe them because they’re pounded into our heads from the time we’re children. That’s what they do with that kind of thing: pound it into the heads of kids, ‘cause they know the children are much too young to be able to muster an intellectual defense against a sophisticated idea like that, and they know that up to a certain age children believe everything their parents tell them. And as a result, they never learn to question things. Nobody questions things in this country anymore. Nobody questions it—everybody is too fat and happy. Everybody’s got a cell phone that’ll make pancakes and rub their balls now. Way too fucking prosperous for our own good, way too fucking prosperous. Americans have been bought off and silenced by toys and gizmos. And no one learns to question things.”

	10:12am Rexedog: ↳ Rexedog @10:10 free market has had it's chance to turn around on climate change and its been laughable. obviously a planned economy would handle the ecological crisis a thousand times better. problem is the only way capitalists find themselves in a planned economy is fascism or wartime powers over the economy

	10:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: We need a True Populism to counter the False Populism. Not some Party Regulars appealing to some imaginary Centrist Middle they hollowed the ground out from under themselves. A charismatic Bernie in his 30s, say...
	10:16am PC77: Latin jazz, sweet...which reminds me how trump shock troops raided Newark this a.m. & detained a US veteran just cuz he looked latino...so is it 'all the same'?

	10:21am gorp: Deportations were already at a ten year high under Biden, not to mention the continuation of the border concentration camps. Roe v Wade was struck down under Biden. Nothing was done to protect gay and trans people for the last four years. Your civil rights are being slowly eroded under either wings of the fascist US duopoly. Trump just makes it more obvious and puts a particularly repugnant face on it. You are ruled by killers and thieves. They own you and nothing short of a full dismantling of the government is going to stop or even slow this process. Be scared but be aware of the entire system and its operations
	10:22am Rexedog: ↳ TerrDE @10:19 they are losing grip. notice how tiktok came back and you aren't allowed to comment 'free palestine' anymore. they are getting wise to social media
	10:22am Egghead: Aaaaagh! We’re all gonna die!!!!!
	10:23am Rexedog: ↳ gorp @10:21 i know at least the libs will wake up from their sleepy joe slumber now. the nyt suddenly cares about people in gaza etc
	10:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ gorp @10:21 Biden was as far from my first choice as he was the obvious choice over Drumpf. When I say Party Regulars - the Democrat literally Aged Out in the middle of the Debate...

	10:27am Fredericks: ↳ Song: "the terror end of beauty" by "harriet tubman" Like Sonny in a mellow mood.
	10:27am PC77: gorp plz don't twist things out of reality, thx
	10:27am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Fredericks @10:27 He had a few actually I think.
	10:27am TerrDE: gorp, that's standard practice. The Republicans come up w fascist nonsense the Democrats decry, that they pass into law , but only lightly enforce . Then the Dems come in and enforce strongly. See also B-Rock O B and W
	10:27am what the hell: @gorp -- word. Shout out to everyone in the chat who isn't oblivious to the suffering of others. Everyone have a beautiful day, i'm going to listen to a back epsiode of moonlight sonatas.
	10:28am MG: That's right, gorp. Also, midterms are a cute thought but I think a dragoon of Luigis might be more..effective
	10:29am Fredericks: ↳ queems @10:12 Who is MJ?
	10:30am WoodsOfMaine: Tubman on Bandcamp: harriettubman.bandcamp.com... Not Sharrock, but the bassist is Melvin Gibbs. Producer is Scotty Hard. Sounds like a 70’s porn name.
	10:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ gorp @10:21 Two things - in fact many - can be true @ once. Can't gainsay anything you say specifically - but Biden also did much for Diversity. Too Militant for my tastes - but just so actually informed on Foreign Policy (reportedly exclaimed Netanyahoo was a 'fcking liar) - & so on. Drumpf made a point of reversing numerous Biden orders on Day One...
	10:30am Fredericks: ↳ Song: "the terror end of beauty" by "harriet tubman" Not so mellow mood now.

	10:33am Zinn The Mood: ↳ gorp @10:21 Absolutely right. How many diehard, hyper-partisan Dem voters are aware that in immigrant communities Obama became known as the Deporter In Chief? All the dysfunction in US government we bicker about blaming the other side is purposeful. Sensationalism hawked by corporate media to distract from real material challenges faced by everybody, from out of control cost of living to college tuition to criminal middleman healthcare “insurance” companies administering care. American elections are quite literally a codified system of bribery. Goldman Sachs, Blackstone, Google, Apple and Amazon call the shots. The Dems v Rep, red v blue, Con v Lib, is all manufactured distraction. The only real divide, as ever, is the 99% v the 1%.
	10:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Rexedog @10:33 No - he didn't fool me with that.
	10:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:34 ...& millions who Voted for Biden the first time sat this one out...
	10:35am Crownless Gander: The Dems actually won the election because they made a shitload of money and are off the hook for governing the giant mess they made. And now a complete maniac will make whatever evil scheme they can come up with over the next four years look utterly sane.
	10:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Crownless Gander @10:35 The Two Party Dance in question.
	10:36am Mister Dobalina: Super Jazzzz...
	👻 10:36am Karl: I am digging all this informed commentary and I really feel like it's going to get us all where we need to go. Oh wait, I meant to say there are productive things one can do, like supporting protectdemocracy.org
	10:36am Crownless Gander: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:36 Yeah. Except I would question the one step forward aspect.
	10:37am Mister Dobalina: ↳ Song: "ari's dance" by "sahab sarbib" Me gusta.
	10:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Crownless Gander @10:36 Damage & Repair Dance perhaps.
	10:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The USA was founded in a Revolution. Hating whoever the King is @ the moment is built in.
	👻 10:39am Barney Grubbs: ↳ Song: "blind willie (for sonny sharrock)" by "luciana bass" my kid's boyfriend plays guitar in the HS jazz band & we went to their concert last week--he took a solo that betrayed the fact that he plays in a grunge/fuzz/shoegaze trio. Trying to pass on some Sharrock cuts to him (especially any solos on otherwise staid Herbie Mann tracks).
	10:39am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:38 Except that half the country apparently wants a king now.
	10:39am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:38 ...perhaps also tho a subconscious envy of those with Monarchs...

	👻 10:43am Barney Grubbs: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @10:30 Scotty Hard produced a bunch of weird hip-hop in the early mid-90s--New Kingdom & some Wordsound stuff.
	10:45am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Barney Grubbs @10:43 Interesting. I’d never heard of him but couldn’t stop myself from cracking wise about the name. Weird hip-hop, eh? Most modern stuff leaves me cold but weird? Will have to investigate!
	👻 10:45am Handy Haversack: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:38 You mean when all those tech bro billionaires who thought they had achieved success because of their own brilliance rather than on the labor of their slaves wanted to keep more of their money so convinced a bunch of working people to fight a war on their behalf?
	10:47am Mister Dobalina: This is some super dooper jazzin' Jazz.
	10:48am Egghead: But you have to admit that Melania did look great in that hat.
	10:48am Fredericks: ↳ MG @10:28 Dragoon = A variety of pigeon.
	10:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:45 Well - we were also Founded by Rich White Slaverapers. Backlash against beginning to face the Facts of History is certainly a factor... How many school kids are taught about the Robber Barons & Teddy Roosevelt ? What FDR said about Monopolies & Democracy ? ...Not so many I reckon... Anyhow - it's even worse now - cause our Identities & Communities & Speech & Information are all tied up in it.
	10:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:45 First Lady Elonia sank 100s of Million$ into buying Votes. Landslide of Corruption is what it is...
	10:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:49 ...more like Hitler & the Industrialists. We learned nothing...
	10:52am rx "rexy" scabin: Wendy Eisenberg? Terrifyingly good.
	10:54am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Egghead @10:48 www.facebook.com...
	10:54am TerrDE: Contails or SPRAY PROGRAM ?
	10:56am kay: today the ghost of phyllis schlafly was seen flying around the national mall. sage just doesn’t work.
	👻 10:59am Jason from Houston: FAN FIC IS BACK
	👻 11:00am Jason from Houston: Thanks, man. That's what I needed today.
	11:03am rx "rexy" scabin: I missed the Harriet Tubman.
	11:04am Mister Dobalina: Really diggin' today's show.
	11:04am SeaCreature: Chris spedding was everywhere. Seen him with John Cale, Roxy music, Robert Gordon, nessessaries, others I can’t recall.
	11:05am Rexedog: ↳ Mister Dobalina @11:04 the show is great today. i rarely have off on friday so im enjoying it
	11:05am steveo: Not sure how I feel about the sq word
	👻 11:06am Hams: if clay had a jazz band, wonder what he'd call it..
	11:06am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Karl @10:36 Thx
	👻 11:06am Handy Haversack: ↳ Jason from Houston @11:00 Those oyster beds!
	11:08am TerrDE: Delores Telescope actually sounds like a Jazz Band name.
	11:09am Zinn The Mood: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @10:39 Ridiculous. Practically “half the country” didn’t even vote. And before all the upstanding voters come to defend American “democracy” by admonishing them all one needs to do is step back and observe these elections with clear eyes to see that it’s anything but democratic. Elections have become total spectacle. Rich people and their bribed puppets, engaged in personality contests, with help from corporate media and the careful calculation of public relations firms in crafting candidates for consumption. Which allows the process to continue with virtually no substantive discussion or debate about the real life challenges of people just trying to get by. Candidates no longer have to worry about policy; they can position themselves simply on personality. Being entertaining, pun intended, trumps everything to Americans weened on tv and 24/7 entertainment possibilities. Real democracy can only be found in mutual aid and protest; if it occurs ever so rarely in elections it’s with the very few candidates willing to forgo all corporate money, most spectacularly in Bernie’s campaigns. The only hope going forward is that people, on both “sides,” will see that they’ve been trapped inside a purposefully dysfunctional system designed to divide and conquer us. And the most powerful example that that can definitely become a reality has been the immediate flashpoint intense support among a majority of people for the killer of the CEO. I’m afraid to say, but that really has the most potential for really turning things around in this country.
	11:09am TerrDE: Chris is one Jack Bruce's first post Cream album
	11:12am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:09 I agree with most of this ...however : Elections have Consequences. Isn't that proved now more than ever ? Especially considering those who Didn't Vote ?
	👻 11:13am spacecadet: ↳ Song: "solo piano" by "dan melchior" where's this recording from, John?
	11:13am Fredericks: ↳ Song: "solo piano" by "dan melchior" Not familiar with this side of Mr. Melchior.
	11:17am bobpopbop: Wadada
	11:18am UR90: A chilly January.
	11:19am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:12 What really has consequences is clutching to the misguided belief that we have “democracy,” when the overwhelming evidence is to the contrary. The first step toward a solution is admitting and accepting it.
	11:19am Crownless Gander: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:09 Agree with all of this except mutual aid being real democracy. It's still just a few crumbs being shared around slightly differently while a few people hold onto the vast majority of the wealth. Harris engineered a Trump win. She's having a great time now.
	11:20am bonobpopbop plásticland: ok John ...wear u git the Threadgill t from???
	11:21am Fredericks: But who knew Satan wore granny glasses and stole his haircut from John Denver?
	11:22am Eva: Jazz made the cover of Feb’s The Nation. Decent article. Looking forward to streaming Eno today. Loving today’s show!
	11:23am Mister Dobalina: Bringing in the heat, JA!
	11:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: We've never had enough Democracy to making Voting worth it. Harris engineered her own Loss - & is having a great time. You hearing yourselves ?
	11:25am bobppbopop plasticland: She was Melania first lady now she's Lady Zorro..sorry lady zero..
	11:27am Mister Dobalina: Sorry, but I'm going to havta Click star this one. You left me no choice.
	11:27am UR90: Is Bryce still a DJ at WFMU?
	11:28am Bonobopopbop plasticland: Spedding..was even with the Wobbles
	11:29am bobobopopbop.: Where is Bryce????
	11:29am Kay: Blame the woman. Can’t wait till they take away vote and let my husband vote for me! Always felt this message board was misogynistic. Good bye!
	11:30am rx "rexy" scabin: This is delicious.
	11:30am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:09 Of course I know half the country didn’t vote. My point is that the republican party is perfectly comfortable having a president who can do whatever the fuck he wants, despite laws, the constitution, whatever.
	11:31am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Crownless Gander @11:19 Admittedly it’s not the kind of political force that can immediately contend with the overwhelming dominance of capitalist realism. But it can and does plant seeds that a world outside the relentlessly merciless, ever-churning capitalist machine that grinds us all up can provide an alternative to get where we need to be, which is as dignified human beings for whom every interaction and relationship shall not be commodified. In other words live in the world the way you envision it. Agree utterly and completely about Kamala and the Dems. Craven, money-gorging monsters who knew they’d cash out regardless of the outcome. Just like in 2016 it was the intransigence of the Dems not to do anything substantive for working people - and blatantly cheating the guy with credibility who spent a lifetime doing so - that absolutely gave us Trump, twice.
	11:31am bobobpopbop plasticland: sorry it's Wombles not Wobbles or Woggles
	11:33am Polyus: ↳ Song: "live at pioneer works, 10/26/23 (side 1)" by "wol... I'm doing one of those Inzane Johnny hand gestures right now.
	👻 11:34am Handy Haversack: Gotta walk the dog around. Thanks, JA! JAZZ oysters!
	11:34am Mister Dobalina: I miss Bryce, immensely & his great Bhangra show.
	11:36am Crownless Gander: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:31 Fair enough. I definitely participate in mutual aid but worry when folks see it as some kind of revolutionary act rather than a pre-revolutionary shoring up of the masses. But yeah, prefiguration is going to be pretty dang important in dismantling this mess.
	11:36am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Mister Dobalina @11:34 I’m in that club!
	11:36am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Bonobopopbop plasticland @11:28 Is that true? Would love to see a nice compendium of musicians who really wore their Leftist stripes in their sleeves. Of course they’ve been among us. But in the context of what being an artist truly means in this world, it’s woefully disappointing.
	👻 11:38am Hams: ↳ TerrDE @11:08 sure does!
	11:39am Fredericks: ↳ Mister Dobalina @11:34 I don't believe I've heard a Bryce Bhangra show.
	11:42am Mister Dobalina: ↳ Fredericks @11:39 Check it out, it's on the archives. Game changer.
	11:42am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you, John and Everyone.
	👻 11:43am Bobby: Thanks jazz i will always love you
	👻 11:43am Audrey from Colombia: ↳ Mister Dobalina @11:34 "I miss Bryce too, he just disappeared, didn’t he? Or is he on a different schedule?
	11:43am Mister Dobalina: One last time, but this Jazz is a real Howdy Doody!
	11:44am John Allen: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:48 Bryce moved out of the area. OK, now it's time to start thanking jazz. C'mon let's go
	11:45am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Song: "african sunset" by "marshall allen" Can’t wait for this to come out.
	👻 11:45am Bob Tankenstein: ↳ Song: "african sunset" by "marshall allen" Beautiful
	11:45am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "african sunset" by "marshall allen" Well, that was real nice.
	11:46am Zinn The Mood: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:30 But that’s historically always been the MO of the Republican Party. Nothing new there. All we’ve got to do is conjure up the most recent evil clown before this one. Who incidentally is also a spoiled Daddy’s boy who thinks he hit a triple though he was born on third base. However, it’s much bigger than the partisanship divide. Fundamentally it’s the ultra capitalist economic system of America that is driving us to ruin.
	11:47am Mister Dobalina: Smooth 98.1
	11:47am Mister Dobalina: fm
	11:50am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Republican Party has known forever that its actual Policies put it in the Minority - so it shoots the dice on any crazy thing - any Ideology, any Candidate - even DonaldDrumpf. The Democratic Party knows that in sheer numbers it is a Majority - & so appeals to an imaginary Center (which doesn't exist between Democracy & Fascism). Forgoing being the supposed Party of the Poor & the Peaceful ...& - Loses. Fascism means literally to Fasten, to be Liberal literally to tolerate more & wider views. Getting the Right & Left to march to the Polls & mark the same box are very different propositions.
	👻 11:51am Mike H: I'll be the first to say it: thank you jazz
	11:52am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Even on Paper the USA is not a Democracy. Functionally it is an Oligarchy.
	👻 11:52am Audrey from Colombia: Thank you JAzz 🎷💙
	👻 11:53am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Thanks, John.
	11:53am Mister Dobalina: Gracias, JA.
	👻 11:53am Mike H: Adrian Younge announced a gig near me - anybody here seen him live? I'm thinking of going
	11:54am John Allen: ↳ Mike H @11:53 you won't be disappointed
	11:55am Big Jake: Before this show is over, I would like to thank, Rabbit, Zinn and Handy for explaining so much to us.
	11:56am CLOUDYJ88: Thanks for today's show John. I appreciate the refreshing honesty.
	11:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Big Jake @11:55 Apologies for so much space to Not Jazz. Altho Jazz is also about Democracy & Being Heard.
	11:57am Zinn The Mood: Absolutely thanks be to you, John, for the Jazz. During the pandemic you, and WKCR, were responsible for getting this rock head to see the light.
	👻 11:58am Jason from Houston: Thank you, JA. Cheers, good radio buddies.
	👻 11:58am Devin B.: TJIF
	👻 11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: Thank you, Jazz.
	👻 11:59am Mike H: ↳ John Allen @11:54 Gonna go for it! Thanks John
	11:59am Mister Dobalina: One last JaZZ tune for you all.

JA In The AM with John Allen: Playlist from January 24, 2025

View John Allen's profile

"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

	9:08am Rob Bric-à-brac: ↳ PigeonsAndRust @9:07 Ken must have, surely?
	9:10am rx "rexy" scabin: Clay is cornering John.
	9:10am BillyLundun: I love Clay's impersonation of John!

I can't even imagine the strength and discipline and.self sacrifice it took to show up every freaking morning and put on a show to help his listeners wake up to another day of carnage and terrorism. If he needs to vent, it's because he just pulled off the hardest week in years.

	👻 9:16am bradford: Don't mess with the dirty.
	9:16am Fredericks: When I think about you, I tickle myself.
	9:16am Lizardner Dave !: "It gives the vibe without the Henley" I do believe we have the next Wake n Bake marathon t shirt slogan.
	9:16am Asheville Jon: you guys just need to mud wrestle out all of this tension
	9:17am Andrew: Yikes John. Projection is in the room with you.
	9:17am Lower East: Clay Pigeon is a real one. John Allen is always a bummer.
	9:17am WoodsOfMaine: Boys of Summer was written by Mike Campbell.
	9:17am Creston: This is great! I hope there is 3 hours of this lol
	9:17am Avspuk: Aren't shrink sessions supposed to be private? Not certain which one of this pair is the shrink & which one the punter on the couch, tho. Maybe they're taking turns?
	9:17am space clothes in Fairfield: Dude. Give clay a fwiggin hug
	9:18am Chris S: Wow bad vibes this am
	👻 9:18am Mike H: We need to get the rock 'n' roll therapist in here, pronto
	9:18am florida: J A sounds like one of them borne again dudes , great dynamic
	9:18am Sundog: ↳ Avspuk @9:17 Hahaha Rite-on
	9:18am Lizardner Dave !: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @9:17 And he pitched it to Tom Petty first, Petty passed and then when it became a huge hit banned the song from being played on the radio on his tour bus.
	9:18am Christy D: This is painful
	9:18am Sundog: Two punters
	9:18am TerrDE: ... Spice Girls wanna know too
	9:18am bobob plasticland: I talked to Henry Threadgill sitting at the door taking cover charge for the Art Ensemble at the Blackstone Hotel in Chicago
	9:18am Cassettivity: @christy D but you can't look away can you
	9:19am LiXiviated Life: John is tight Clay is looooose
	9:19am Fredericks: You are being mean on the air.
	9:19am ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore): ↳ Sigmund & Karl @9:14 I gotta be honest - and I know this will ruffles some feathers - but I don't understand the en masse love of Fred & Alan. All they ever do is come on and complain about their job, refer to people as animals, and self promote their appearances when they happen. If you hate your job so much, get another one. Referring to people as animals is dehumanizing, which we ordinarily deride people for doing.
	9:19am lillyVanilly: ↳ Lower East @9:17 +1
	9:19am Panther: Toddophonic is like the most angry person on FMU
	9:19am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Lizardner Dave ! @9:18 Yeah, there’s a great video of him explaining how it almost didn’t make it to Henly.
	9:20am Panther: We don’t want politics!!!
	9:20am PaulRobeson1925: Into this life we’re thrown
	9:21am Cassettivity: Clay & John are our modern age Laurel & Hardy. Now we don't do the physical slapstick, we jab about feelings
	9:21am lazy pierogi: ❤️‍🩹
	9:21am LiXiviated Life: W&B is a refuge from the BS of the world.
	9:21am Jessica B: You handled it just fine, Clay ❤️
	9:22am planet tyler: we love you clay, you did perfectly
	9:22am Creston: My least favorite dusty shows are political
	👻 9:22am Garrity: ↳ LiXiviated Life @9:21 Agreed!
	9:22am Calamity K.: Clay is King
	9:22am Christy D: @ cassettivity true. Today anyway. Most of the time I change the dial when I hear the Henley every Friday at 9am
	9:22am florida: Todd was bein Todd that's how he felt. No harm No foul
	9:22am Andrew: Oof
	9:23am Lana in Bucks County: Clay I count on your balanced views, peace and love vibes, and All One. You handled it with your usual grace. Thank you for sharing that, and for not adding fuel to the fire.
	9:23am Fredericks: Clay fears the gallows. Rightfully.
	9:23am Panther: Pidge Rocks!!! Toddophonic should do another toni basil interview
	👻 9:23am Audrey from Colombia: ↳ Panther @9:19 I’m not sure; Todd has strong political views, and that might come across as passionate or even hostile at times
	9:23am Roosty: CP, I was there and there was no tone of complacency or naivete despite the lack of vocalizing—dont u worry
	9:23am Panther: Agreed
	9:24am WoodsOfMaine: I mostly avoid news/politics these days. Never thought I’d see the end of the empire (John is really discounting this) but here we are.
	👻 9:24am Handy Haversack: Clay, that's not politics, that's addictive technology in action. Engagement is money. You're being played. Politics is direct action, mutual aid, and community. Get off the socials and get out in the streets.
	9:24am Lizardner Dave !: I listen to Wake to escape the news cycle. Really that's why I come to WFMU in general. The DJ's can say whatever they want and if they want to discuss politics that's their right but it's also my right to turn the dial if I don't feel like hearing about it.
	9:24am Lana in Bucks County: Wise sentiment, beautifully stated, John.
	9:24am Woo: There's talk of getting rid of pennies again. I am pro-penny. Pennies forever.
	9:24am jakee.jc: Here here, JA!
	9:24am PaulRobeson1925: S.A.M play somthing to make Mr.Clay happy
	9:25am Crispy: so happy to hear humans on the radio :-) keep on truckin' dudes
	9:25am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): recognize the true enemy
	9:25am jakee.jc: The secret word here is “capitalism”
	9:25am Nick K: Clay I listen to u for many years and love your show because ur not into all that shit thanks for being a relief from that
	👻 9:25am Audrey from Colombia: Clay is very sensitive and tends to overthink situations that aren’t really a big deal
	9:25am Panther: We have been divided!! Part of the plan!!
	9:25am jakee.jc: Yes Handy!
	9:25am Cassettivity: @handy right on. Most revolutionary thing someone could do these days is support their neighbors and local community, sadly.
	9:25am florida: this dude vote for the orange one ( JA )
	9:25am Asheville Jon: ALL THE NETWORKS!
	👻 9:26am Handy Haversack: ↳ jakee.jc @9:25 Hope you had a good birthday, jakee!
	9:26am northguineahills: social media can be a positive if profit isn't the motive. proof in the pudding, wfmu.... /mmmm, puddding drools
	9:26am Planet Ø Tyler: Sending Clay a million hugs. And no, Clay is not just being sensitive. He's a responsible citizen and is taking this dangerous admin seriously
	9:26am LiXiviated Life: Ezra Klein had an interesting take on this recently. In the past we were exploited for our labor Now we’re being exploited for our attention. It’s what you have that’s of value to them. Spend your attention wisely.
	9:26am jeanjae: It's the old "divide and conquer." I weep for the future.
	9:26am PaulRobeson1925: “Can’t you see we are somthing somthing controlled by T.V?”
	9:26am Steve Del Sol: I just jumped in here. I was in one of Jimmy Carters connected CETA program. while in college. The fight never stops.
	9:26am ⚙️: I wish we were listening to nails being hammered and saws or whatever right now. Or some Spotify laundering or whatever else is cool
	9:26am northguineahills: ↳ jakee.jc @9:25 have a wicked cumpleanos!
	9:26am Planet Ø Tyler: ↳ LiXiviated Life @9:26 Nice
	9:27am Polyus: Was there ever a time Americans were all on the same page about anything? Now we just have constant access to the things our neighbors believe and it seems bad, but they probably always thought that stuff anyway.
	9:27am Toothgrinder Tom: We’re all negotiating the new political reality.
	9:27am Sean Bikes: John's a taper? Interesting
	9:27am Nick K: We have nothing to worry about except death
	9:27am Egghead: He’s right. The fed government has three branches. And there are 50 states and they each have three branches. Power is diffused in this country. Look at California vs Florida. Yet we can still stay together.
	9:27am Lizardner Dave !: I'm so worried about the new baggage system they have at Heathrow.
	9:28am PaulRobeson1925: I have a 45 Kimber. JA! When it’s nice out we shoot it off the 2nd story balcony towards the ground. Ear plugs are a must a must! Two hands at all times. The thing weighs as much as a 2 year old
	9:28am ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore): ↳ Lizardner Dave ! @9:24 Your last sentence is what people yesterday during the Toddophonic Todd segment were missing. The DJs are free to talk about what they want, and you don't get to tell them to "shut up and play music". Direct quote from yesterday. Don't like it? Turn the dial. Or become a program director at a radio station.
	9:28am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): yesterday my boss proposed a women's march of women who all have concealed carry permits
	9:28am Steve Del Sol: ↳ Nick K @9:27 What we are worrying about are MANY deaths all at once. For someones design.
	9:28am Andy: John ask Clay what he thinks about the halting of the historic march of labor
	9:28am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): ↳ bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢) @9:28 images.jacobinmag.com... like so
	9:28am LiXiviated Life: I’ve decided that There’s nothing I can say that will make much of a difference It’s only what I do that changes things. Be the change you want in this world.
	9:28am Zinn The Mood: Absolutely right on, John. The intentional constriction of what’s acceptable to talk about, dictated by corporate mainstream media, makes it incumbent on all of us, in places like this and in public face to face, to speak and act in acknowledgment that they’re both lying to us, and that there truly is another way for a better world. Like John and Yoko put on billboards, “if you want it.” Speak up, and act out, folks. Or we perish.
	9:28am Pedro in Arlington: Let it out, Clay. You've got a tough gig trying to lift the spirits of thousands-millions every weekday morning.
	9:28am Sundog: Ketchin tadpoles on Uncle Olympic farm
	9:29am Lana in Bucks County: "Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I'll meet you there." ~ Rumi

	9:29am Yorkville Crooner: Right on, Clay
	9:30am Andy: too much ism and schism
	9:30am Pedro in Arlington: And lift your own spirits glisteners by staying away from all the oligarch-controlled poison peddled by oligarchs. Watch old movies from a better time.
	9:30am ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore): ↳ Planet Ø Tyler @9:29 Yeah, all randos no one has ever seen comment before.

	9:31am Old as Dirt: It's been awhile...but I really love and appreciate you Clay!
	👻 9:31am Charles in Chicago: Um, they don't just want to to work and stay out of trouble. They want to round people up and deport them.
	9:31am Egghead: ↳ northguineahills @9:29 California was also more purple. But the system still works.
	9:31am PaulRobeson1925: Baby? I am America
	9:32am florida: sounds like a guidance consular session in high school
	9:32am PaulRobeson1925: Yes! All people are born innately good
	9:32am OnTheTrain: I agree people are lost in an alternate reality, of pseudo-news . Drones , Aliens ( people from somewhere else), The general lack of understanding of Taxes, Inflation, The role and power of politicians. The Cult of personality.
	9:32am Kirsten 🍀 Nauset CC: This background music needs to end...omg...🎼🎼🎼🎼
	9:32am Starkville Bill: I'm out
	9:32am Toothgrinder Tom: What’s at stake is the rule of law.
	9:33am Pedro in Arlington: Funny enough, long before the internet and when Clay moved to NYC, a horrible toxic immigrant from Australia bought a tabloid NYC paper and started featuring a certain sad, dishonest celebrity. And here we are.
	9:33am TerrDE: Jazz, I've heard of it
	9:33am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): uh oh rexedog is coming
	👻 9:33am Charles in Chicago: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @9:32 can't agree with that. human nature is complex, we are scheming, devious, self-interested creatures
	9:33am OnTheTrain: ↳ Kirsten 🍀 Nauset CC @9:32 Can we get them to play "Cult of personality" by Living Colour ?
	9:33am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): just joking
	9:33am Steve Del Sol: Populism lives in each eye, uniquely, of each adherent. That is why it appears so chaotic.
	9:34am PaulRobeson1925: www.jstor.org... The Bomb
	9:34am ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore): ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:33 I that's more due to nurture than nature though.
	👻 9:34am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Steve Del Sol @9:33 populism failed miserably in the late 19th century and it will fail again
	9:34am JG: Didn't Benny Goodman bring his band to the Soviets as an act of good will? When was that -Fifties?
	9:34am Planet Ø Tyler: JA is making good points but a Sieg Heil in front of the WH, and applauded!!!, moved things to another level
	9:34am Asheville Jon: Clay is just gonna tease us on this story, kinda like the fake JA Deep Purple story
	9:34am TerrDE: Shadows on the side walk.
	9:35am Mennlinn Rebarts: Everyone should visit the bomb museum in Hiroshima.
	👻 9:35am Charles in Chicago: ↳ ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore) @9:34 "it's complicated". but i don't think you can just say people are good, or bad. we are both, mixed together
	9:35am ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore): ↳ Planet Ø Tyler @9:34 And the amount of people defending and sane-washing that moment is INSANE.
	9:35am PaulRobeson1925: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @9:34 OK
	9:35am Steve Del Sol: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @9:33 Exactly!! Never should have been allowed to own any kind of news organization.

	9:36am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): i wish zinn the mood was here
	9:36am Steve Del Sol: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:34 Of course. Leaves lots of wreckage though.
	9:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: In a couple of days Drumpf has done more with Executive Power to recycle the Constitution into Bathroom Tissue than anyone has even conceived of. Of course it was always his strategy to overwhelm us with Bullsh*t Outrage ...& actual Sewage - unit we simply run out of diapers for him. This has been in the playbook since Machiavelli... Anyone thinks they can sit it out & be NonPolitical is still in denial.
	9:36am Zinn The Mood: We cannot be inert, scrolling our phones and needing to be entertained 24/7, while the cost of living skyrockets and healthcare is administered middleman insurance companies denying us care. It’s called empathy and compassion, the engines of society. Just because it might not be happening to you doesn’t mean it’s not a serious crisis that threatens to shred that which keeps this whole thing together. The “Each Against All” system of capitalism, of codified profiteering of everything, is literally killing the planet and the people.
	9:37am Planet Ø Tyler: ↳ Brian from Charlottesville @9:35 I love this too. Love that WFMU is made of real people!

	9:38am 212311!: not boring! Clay is wonderful!
	👻 9:38am Noir Lover: There's a doc called "Soundtrack to a Coup d'etat" out now. It's partially about how the US gov used jazz musicians to promote colonial agenda. Everyone should see it. Beautiful film.
	9:38am ThunderDumplin' (MW in Baltimore): ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:35 I guess my point is that we're born as blank slates. We have no idiosyncrasies, no motivation beyond our base needs being met, because we don't know any better. Then we are shaped by those around us, and the environment we are brought up in.
	9:38am Mennlinn Rebarts: ↳ TerrDE @9:37 Ningen Isu = "human chair"?
	9:38am PaulRobeson1925: The internet is a cowards place

	9:39am PigeonsAndRust: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @9:34 I think I'd like to read that. More forgotten and even more awful in terms of scale were the fire raids. I recommend an ancient paperback "A Torch to the Enemy" by Martin Cardin, 1960. I just pulled it down from the shelf. By the end of July 1945 we incinerated 178 square miles of 69 cities in Japan
	9:39am Lana in Bucks County: Really enjoying this discussion, hitting some great insights, sharing deep history, thank you so much.

	9:39am Dr Mabusa: The mellow bed seems to be the key.

	9:43am Matty Cannabis: We have a lot more common interests than people realize. Billionaires have divided us. It needs to be talked about. My yoga teacher said yesterday, "I can't stay quiet any longer." It's unavoidable when our democracy has been perverted and hijacked. It's our duty to speak up.

	👻 9:46am Audrey from Colombia: ↳ Dr Mabusa @9:44 We don’t like squirrels in this show. Ask John.
	9:46am Zinn The Mood: Need more folks willing to critique the fundamental nature of America’s past and its long-standing role in the world as imperialist capitalist pillager. Can’t be content just to have cheap goods to fill up your basement and attic with, when they’re increasingly made by child slave labor in SE Asia. We’ve become too soft and alienated from real life. This isn’t just about Trump. It’s about what American culture has been conditioned to be, by powerful corporate propaganda, that the main goal in life is to own property and acquire material things. We have the means to get ensure housing, food and clothing for all. Why the fuck not? Because a small cabal of obscenely rich oligarchs have convinced you that it’s an Each Against All world of individualism. The American Dream, in this sense, is an abject failure.
	9:47am P-90: Akira Takasaki

	10:02am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ McGroovey @9:59 Worth remembering that Drumpf's lead in the Popular Vote over Kamala was truly miniscule. Add the people who Voted for someone besides them - Drumpf got a Minority of the Votes. & the people who sat this Election out were numerous. Half the Country hates him.
	10:02am TerrDE: Which direction Orange doesn't exist ?
	10:02am Steve Del Sol: Civilization and its discontents, baby, the discontents.
	10:03am TerrDE: Man is not meant to live in CA
	10:03am MeMo BoingBoing: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:02 Yes! And we will have midterm elections
	10:03am Zinn The Mood: How ‘bout some George Carlin, folks? “There is just enough bullshit to hold things together in this country. Bullshit is the glue that binds us as a nation. Where would we be without our safe, familiar, American bullshit? ‘Land of the free, home of the brave, the American dream, all men are equal, justice is blind, the press is free, your vote counts, business is honest, the good guys win, the police are on your side, God is watching you, your standard of living will never decline… and everything is going to be just fine’ - The official national bullshit story. I call it the American okie doke. Every one of those items is provably untrue at one level or another. But we believe them because they’re pounded into our heads from the time we’re children. That’s what they do with that kind of thing: pound it into the heads of kids, ‘cause they know the children are much too young to be able to muster an intellectual defense against a sophisticated idea like that, and they know that up to a certain age children believe everything their parents tell them. And as a result, they never learn to question things. Nobody questions things in this country anymore. Nobody questions it—everybody is too fat and happy. Everybody’s got a cell phone that’ll make pancakes and rub their balls now. Way too fucking prosperous for our own good, way too fucking prosperous. Americans have been bought off and silenced by toys and gizmos. And no one learns to question things.”

	10:04am jj: Clay... Your little song was beautiful
	10:04am Asheville Jon: having lived through, and still living in a huge disaster area, i want to say thanks for monetary and other support people have given to the people in this part of the country
	10:04am Egghead: INXS was better than U2. They just were, ok?
	10:04am Dr Mabusa: @zinn Yessss!

	10:10am Jack McGuire: Anti-Reagan and stuff, man, yeah.
	10:10am Rexedog: ↳ Fredericks @10:05 there is a book coming out on iskra books that looks good "Communism: the highest stage of Ecology" by Guillame Suing
	10:10am Mister Dobalina: ↳ steveo @10:09 i guess every note is a jaZz note.
	10:10am Joanie: I just wanted to chime in to your conversation about the current government situation re: freedoms being taken away - women's health services & reproduction rights are slowly being chipped away. It's very real & very scary.

	10:12am queems: mj never sounded so good
	10:12am Rexedog: ↳ Rexedog @10:10 free market has had it's chance to turn around on climate change and its been laughable. obviously a planned economy would handle the ecological crisis a thousand times better. problem is the only way capitalists find themselves in a planned economy is fascism or wartime powers over the economy
	10:12am steveo: ↳ Mister Dobalina @10:10 But tuba notes especially
	👻 10:13am Karl: ↳ McGroovey @10:11 McGroovey, I hope you're doing alright these days. It's cold out there, in more ways than one.
	👻 10:13am Garrity: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:08 👍
	10:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: We need a True Populism to counter the False Populism. Not some Party Regulars appealing to some imaginary Centrist Middle they hollowed the ground out from under themselves. A charismatic Bernie in his 30s, say...
	10:16am PC77: Latin jazz, sweet...which reminds me how trump shock troops raided Newark this a.m. & detained a US veteran just cuz he looked latino...so is it 'all the same'?
	10:16am steveo: ↳ Song: "they don't care about us" by "enrico rava" Is this a picnic?

	👻 10:21am Bobby: Hello JA, jazz, listeners of shows about jazz
	10:21am gorp: Deportations were already at a ten year high under Biden, not to mention the continuation of the border concentration camps. Roe v Wade was struck down under Biden. Nothing was done to protect gay and trans people for the last four years. Your civil rights are being slowly eroded under either wings of the fascist US duopoly. Trump just makes it more obvious and puts a particularly repugnant face on it. You are ruled by killers and thieves. They own you and nothing short of a full dismantling of the government is going to stop or even slow this process. Be scared but be aware of the entire system and its operations
	10:22am Rexedog: ↳ TerrDE @10:19 they are losing grip. notice how tiktok came back and you aren't allowed to comment 'free palestine' anymore. they are getting wise to social media
	10:22am Egghead: Aaaaagh! We’re all gonna die!!!!!
	10:23am Rexedog: ↳ gorp @10:21 i know at least the libs will wake up from their sleepy joe slumber now. the nyt suddenly cares about people in gaza etc
	10:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ gorp @10:21 Biden was as far from my first choice as he was the obvious choice over Drumpf. When I say Party Regulars - the Democrat literally Aged Out in the middle of the Debate...
	10:24am chriz: ↳ Karl @10:09 this is fantastic!
	10:25am Fredericks: ↳ Song: "the terror end of beauty" by "harriet tubman" Sharrockian guitar strums.
	👻 10:26am Karl: ↳ Song: "the terror end of beauty" by "harriet tubman" Oh I really like this
	10:26am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Fredericks @10:25 Exactly what my ears thought
	10:27am Fredericks: ↳ Song: "the terror end of beauty" by "harriet tubman" Like Sonny in a mellow mood.
	10:27am PC77: gorp plz don't twist things out of reality, thx
	10:27am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Fredericks @10:27 He had a few actually I think.
	10:27am TerrDE: gorp, that's standard practice. The Republicans come up w fascist nonsense the Democrats decry, that they pass into law , but only lightly enforce . Then the Dems come in and enforce strongly. See also B-Rock O B and W
	10:27am what the hell: @gorp -- word. Shout out to everyone in the chat who isn't oblivious to the suffering of others. Everyone have a beautiful day, i'm going to listen to a back epsiode of moonlight sonatas.
	10:28am MG: That's right, gorp. Also, midterms are a cute thought but I think a dragoon of Luigis might be more..effective
	10:29am Fredericks: ↳ queems @10:12 Who is MJ?
	10:30am WoodsOfMaine: Tubman on Bandcamp: harriettubman.bandcamp.com... Not Sharrock, but the bassist is Melvin Gibbs. Producer is Scotty Hard. Sounds like a 70’s porn name.
	10:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ gorp @10:21 Two things - in fact many - can be true @ once. Can't gainsay anything you say specifically - but Biden also did much for Diversity. Too Militant for my tastes - but just so actually informed on Foreign Policy (reportedly exclaimed Netanyahoo was a 'fcking liar) - & so on. Drumpf made a point of reversing numerous Biden orders on Day One...
	10:30am Fredericks: ↳ Song: "the terror end of beauty" by "harriet tubman" Not so mellow mood now.
	10:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:30 Of course we're weary of the Two Party one step forward two steps back dance...

	10:33am Rexedog: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:30 biden could have stopped sending arms to israel at any point. looks like he fooled you with that BS lol
	10:33am Zinn The Mood: ↳ gorp @10:21 Absolutely right. How many diehard, hyper-partisan Dem voters are aware that in immigrant communities Obama became known as the Deporter In Chief? All the dysfunction in US government we bicker about blaming the other side is purposeful. Sensationalism hawked by corporate media to distract from real material challenges faced by everybody, from out of control cost of living to college tuition to criminal middleman healthcare “insurance” companies administering care. American elections are quite literally a codified system of bribery. Goldman Sachs, Blackstone, Google, Apple and Amazon call the shots. The Dems v Rep, red v blue, Con v Lib, is all manufactured distraction. The only real divide, as ever, is the 99% v the 1%.
	10:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Rexedog @10:33 No - he didn't fool me with that.
	10:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:34 ...& millions who Voted for Biden the first time sat this one out...
	10:35am Crownless Gander: The Dems actually won the election because they made a shitload of money and are off the hook for governing the giant mess they made. And now a complete maniac will make whatever evil scheme they can come up with over the next four years look utterly sane.
	10:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Crownless Gander @10:35 The Two Party Dance in question.
	10:36am Mister Dobalina: Super Jazzzz...
	👻 10:36am Karl: I am digging all this informed commentary and I really feel like it's going to get us all where we need to go. Oh wait, I meant to say there are productive things one can do, like supporting protectdemocracy.org
	10:36am Crownless Gander: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:36 Yeah. Except I would question the one step forward aspect.
	10:37am Mister Dobalina: ↳ Song: "ari's dance" by "sahab sarbib" Me gusta.
	10:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Crownless Gander @10:36 Damage & Repair Dance perhaps.
	10:38am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The USA was founded in a Revolution. Hating whoever the King is @ the moment is built in.
	👻 10:39am Barney Grubbs: ↳ Song: "blind willie (for sonny sharrock)" by "luciana bass" my kid's boyfriend plays guitar in the HS jazz band & we went to their concert last week--he took a solo that betrayed the fact that he plays in a grunge/fuzz/shoegaze trio. Trying to pass on some Sharrock cuts to him (especially any solos on otherwise staid Herbie Mann tracks).
	10:39am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:38 Except that half the country apparently wants a king now.
	10:39am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:38 ...perhaps also tho a subconscious envy of those with Monarchs...
	10:39am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @10:39 Bingo.
	10:40am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:39 By the way, announcement for The Thing in the Spring in Keene is this Friday.
	10:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @10:40 Maybe the best thing about NewHampshuh...
	10:41am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:41 I might actually make it there this year. I have seen SO many great acts at that event.
	👻 10:43am Barney Grubbs: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @10:30 Scotty Hard produced a bunch of weird hip-hop in the early mid-90s--New Kingdom & some Wordsound stuff.
	10:45am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Barney Grubbs @10:43 Interesting. I’d never heard of him but couldn’t stop myself from cracking wise about the name. Weird hip-hop, eh? Most modern stuff leaves me cold but weird? Will have to investigate!
	👻 10:45am Handy Haversack: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:38 You mean when all those tech bro billionaires who thought they had achieved success because of their own brilliance rather than on the labor of their slaves wanted to keep more of their money so convinced a bunch of working people to fight a war on their behalf?
	10:47am Mister Dobalina: This is some super dooper jazzin' Jazz.
	10:48am Egghead: But you have to admit that Melania did look great in that hat.
	10:48am Fredericks: ↳ MG @10:28 Dragoon = A variety of pigeon.
	10:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:45 Well - we were also Founded by Rich White Slaverapers. Backlash against beginning to face the Facts of History is certainly a factor... How many school kids are taught about the Robber Barons & Teddy Roosevelt ? What FDR said about Monopolies & Democracy ? ...Not so many I reckon... Anyhow - it's even worse now - cause our Identities & Communities & Speech & Information are all tied up in it.
	10:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:45 First Lady Elonia sank 100s of Million$ into buying Votes. Landslide of Corruption is what it is...
	10:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:49 ...more like Hitler & the Industrialists. We learned nothing...

	11:04am SeaCreature: Chris spedding was everywhere. Seen him with John Cale, Roxy music, Robert Gordon, nessessaries, others I can’t recall.
	11:05am Rexedog: ↳ Mister Dobalina @11:04 the show is great today. i rarely have off on friday so im enjoying it

	👻 11:06am Handy Haversack: ↳ Jason from Houston @11:00 Those oyster beds!
	11:08am TerrDE: Delores Telescope actually sounds like a Jazz Band name.
	11:09am Zinn The Mood: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @10:39 Ridiculous. Practically “half the country” didn’t even vote. And before all the upstanding voters come to defend American “democracy” by admonishing them all one needs to do is step back and observe these elections with clear eyes to see that it’s anything but democratic. Elections have become total spectacle. Rich people and their bribed puppets, engaged in personality contests, with help from corporate media and the careful calculation of public relations firms in crafting candidates for consumption. Which allows the process to continue with virtually no substantive discussion or debate about the real life challenges of people just trying to get by. Candidates no longer have to worry about policy; they can position themselves simply on personality. Being entertaining, pun intended, trumps everything to Americans weened on tv and 24/7 entertainment possibilities. Real democracy can only be found in mutual aid and protest; if it occurs ever so rarely in elections it’s with the very few candidates willing to forgo all corporate money, most spectacularly in Bernie’s campaigns. The only hope going forward is that people, on both “sides,” will see that they’ve been trapped inside a purposefully dysfunctional system designed to divide and conquer us. And the most powerful example that that can definitely become a reality has been the immediate flashpoint intense support among a majority of people for the killer of the CEO. I’m afraid to say, but that really has the most potential for really turning things around in this country.
	11:09am TerrDE: Chris is one Jack Bruce's first post Cream album
	11:12am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:09 I agree with most of this ...however : Elections have Consequences. Isn't that proved now more than ever ? Especially considering those who Didn't Vote ?
	👻 11:13am spacecadet: ↳ Song: "solo piano" by "dan melchior" where's this recording from, John?
	11:13am Fredericks: ↳ Song: "solo piano" by "dan melchior" Not familiar with this side of Mr. Melchior.
	11:17am bobpopbop: Wadada
	11:18am UR90: A chilly January.
	11:19am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:12 What really has consequences is clutching to the misguided belief that we have “democracy,” when the overwhelming evidence is to the contrary. The first step toward a solution is admitting and accepting it.
	11:19am Crownless Gander: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:09 Agree with all of this except mutual aid being real democracy. It's still just a few crumbs being shared around slightly differently while a few people hold onto the vast majority of the wealth. Harris engineered a Trump win. She's having a great time now.
	11:20am bonobpopbop plásticland: ok John ...wear u git the Threadgill t from???
	11:21am Fredericks: But who knew Satan wore granny glasses and stole his haircut from John Denver?
	11:22am Eva: Jazz made the cover of Feb’s The Nation. Decent article. Looking forward to streaming Eno today. Loving today’s show!
	11:23am Mister Dobalina: Bringing in the heat, JA!
	11:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: We've never had enough Democracy to making Voting worth it. Harris engineered her own Loss - & is having a great time. You hearing yourselves ?
	11:25am bobppbopop plasticland: She was Melania first lady now she's Lady Zorro..sorry lady zero..
	11:27am Mister Dobalina: Sorry, but I'm going to havta Click star this one. You left me no choice.
	11:27am UR90: Is Bryce still a DJ at WFMU?
	11:28am Bonobopopbop plasticland: Spedding..was even with the Wobbles
	11:29am bobobopopbop.: Where is Bryce????
	11:29am Kay: Blame the woman. Can’t wait till they take away vote and let my husband vote for me! Always felt this message board was misogynistic. Good bye!
	11:30am rx "rexy" scabin: This is delicious.
	11:30am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:09 Of course I know half the country didn’t vote. My point is that the republican party is perfectly comfortable having a president who can do whatever the fuck he wants, despite laws, the constitution, whatever.
	11:31am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Crownless Gander @11:19 Admittedly it’s not the kind of political force that can immediately contend with the overwhelming dominance of capitalist realism. But it can and does plant seeds that a world outside the relentlessly merciless, ever-churning capitalist machine that grinds us all up can provide an alternative to get where we need to be, which is as dignified human beings for whom every interaction and relationship shall not be commodified. In other words live in the world the way you envision it. Agree utterly and completely about Kamala and the Dems. Craven, money-gorging monsters who knew they’d cash out regardless of the outcome. Just like in 2016 it was the intransigence of the Dems not to do anything substantive for working people - and blatantly cheating the guy with credibility who spent a lifetime doing so - that absolutely gave us Trump, twice.
	11:31am bobobpopbop plasticland: sorry it's Wombles not Wobbles or Woggles
	11:33am Polyus: ↳ Song: "live at pioneer works, 10/26/23 (side 1)" by "wol... I'm doing one of those Inzane Johnny hand gestures right now.
	👻 11:34am Handy Haversack: Gotta walk the dog around. Thanks, JA! JAZZ oysters!
	11:34am Mister Dobalina: I miss Bryce, immensely & his great Bhangra show.
	11:36am Crownless Gander: ↳ Zinn The Mood @11:31 Fair enough. I definitely participate in mutual aid but worry when folks see it as some kind of revolutionary act rather than a pre-revolutionary shoring up of the masses. But yeah, prefiguration is going to be pretty dang important in dismantling this mess.
	11:36am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Mister Dobalina @11:34 I’m in that club!
	11:36am Zinn The Mood: ↳ Bonobopopbop plasticland @11:28 Is that true? Would love to see a nice compendium of musicians who really wore their Leftist stripes in their sleeves. Of course they’ve been among us. But in the context of what being an artist truly means in this world, it’s woefully disappointing.
	👻 11:38am Hams: ↳ TerrDE @11:08 sure does!
	11:39am Fredericks: ↳ Mister Dobalina @11:34 I don't believe I've heard a Bryce Bhangra show.
	11:42am Mister Dobalina: ↳ Fredericks @11:39 Check it out, it's on the archives. Game changer.
	11:42am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you, John and Everyone.

	11:43am Mister Dobalina: One last time, but this Jazz is a real Howdy Doody!
	11:44am John Allen: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:48 Bryce moved out of the area. OK, now it's time to start thanking jazz. C'mon let's go
	11:45am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Song: "african sunset" by "marshall allen" Can’t wait for this to come out.
	👻 11:45am Bob Tankenstein: ↳ Song: "african sunset" by "marshall allen" Beautiful
	11:45am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "african sunset" by "marshall allen" Well, that was real nice.
	11:46am Zinn The Mood: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:30 But that’s historically always been the MO of the Republican Party. Nothing new there. All we’ve got to do is conjure up the most recent evil clown before this one. Who incidentally is also a spoiled Daddy’s boy who thinks he hit a triple though he was born on third base. However, it’s much bigger than the partisanship divide. Fundamentally it’s the ultra capitalist economic system of America that is driving us to ruin.
	11:47am Mister Dobalina: Smooth 98.1
	11:47am Mister Dobalina: fm
	11:50am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Republican Party has known forever that its actual Policies put it in the Minority - so it shoots the dice on any crazy thing - any Ideology, any Candidate - even DonaldDrumpf. The Democratic Party knows that in sheer numbers it is a Majority - & so appeals to an imaginary Center (which doesn't exist between Democracy & Fascism). Forgoing being the supposed Party of the Poor & the Peaceful ...& - Loses. Fascism means literally to Fasten, to be Liberal literally to tolerate more & wider views. Getting the Right & Left to march to the Polls & mark the same box are very different propositions.
	👻 11:51am Mike H: I'll be the first to say it: thank you jazz
	11:52am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Even on Paper the USA is not a Democracy. Functionally it is an Oligarchy.

	11:56am CLOUDYJ88: Thanks for today's show John. I appreciate the refreshing honesty.
	11:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Big Jake @11:55 Apologies for so much space to Not Jazz. Altho Jazz is also about Democracy & Being Heard.
	11:57am Zinn The Mood: Absolutely thanks be to you, John, for the Jazz. During the pandemic you, and WKCR, were responsible for getting this rock head to see the light.
