Listener comments!

  8:08pm
Quiet Here:

Quiet Here here. Where's the noise?
  8:10pm
Matt from Springfield:

@Quiet Here You just BROUGHT it!!

Howdy Codger and 78 fans!
  8:12pm
Matt from Springfield:

That cat's a cad!
  8:12pm
Loud Lou:

Anyone seen my ruckus?
  8:14pm
Matt from Springfield:

Settling in the Boudoir with my own Rancho Malario and Sly Weasel.
  8:19pm
Van in DC:

I'm new here (this show, etc). Hi.
  8:20pm
G:

This reminds me of a certain insurance ad.
  8:21pm
Matt from Springfield:

Howdy Van!
The Old Codger is the oldest DJ on WFMU -- by a long shot! He fills in occasionally.
  8:22pm
Matt from Springfield:

And hi there G! :)
  8:22pm
Van in DC:

Ah, thanks Mr Matt, and howdy!! Always a pleasure to see you, as it were, on the playlists :)
  8:22pm
G:

Hoover and Smith -- a 1928 election song -- I never knew Herbert and Al sold vacuums and cough drops, though
  8:23pm
Van in DC:

I'm not sure Matt from Springfield even sleeps... :)
  8:24pm
G:

Matt is a bot :P Mattbot!
  8:24pm
G:

As techs say: It's not a bug, it's a feature
  8:25pm
Matt from Springfield:

Why thank ye, Van!
@G Don't know what kind of in-jokes those were. The mention of oil earlier prob alludes to the Teapot Dome scandal.
  8:26pm
G:

They took 45 rpm out of the 78s and made 33s. Clear devolution.
  8:27pm
Matt from Springfield:

RCA Victor probably screwed the pooch on the (Earth) surface noise.
  8:28pm
Van in DC:

So about to go lay down on couch and will surely fall asleep but will have FMU streaming on to be there with me as I pass into sleeeeeeeeeeep.... I should do this more often :)
  8:29pm
G:

@Van: Back in the 1930s depression people also used music to escape the woes created by poor policy choices :-)
  8:30pm
Matt from Springfield:

Pleasant dreams Van! At least with THIS melody you'll get them!
  8:30pm
Matt from Springfield:

FATS!
  8:31pm
Mike East:

I've been falling asleep listening to radio static because it calms my daughter. at times, I think I'm listening to one of the "stranger" shows on WFMU.
  8:31pm
Van in DC:

G, Matt, Old Codger person, and everyone else, good night, I'll be still listening in.
  8:32pm
G:

nn...
  8:32pm
G:

The Man I Love: classic tune, classic performer
  8:32pm
Matt from Springfield:

Say, would the Codger have anything by Skip McCullup & the Ennui Inducers? They played and sang ragtime songs, but in reverse. And this was before people figured out how to reverse a phonograph!
  8:33pm
Matt from Springfield:

Night Van!
@Mike Like white noise!
  8:34pm
Matt from Springfield:

Matt from Springfield:

It's blossom, dearie!
  8:43pm
G:

The old codger in the alley with a blackjack.
  8:44pm
Radiola 18:

Hey old man, do I have to dial a 1 before that 6 ?
  8:45pm

  8:46pm
Matt from Springfield:

And wait to be connected, then shout out "Ahoy ahoy!"
  8:46pm

In bourbon veritas.
  8:48pm
Radiola 18:

The line is busy ...
  8:50pm

The operator is canoodling in the moonlight with courtney, that dog.
  8:52pm
