	3:24pm DjLorraine: Happy Friday and happy sophisticats! Cooh John 🙋
	3:24pm fred: @winston: I once got to meet Keiji Haino. We both were about as interested in meeting each other, so no pic was taken. Make no mistake, I worship the guy, and the more I learn I know about him, the more I do. And the more I think I have no business talking to him or being in his vicinity
	3:25pm Rob Kopp: This song by Jane Siberry was turning into an earworm
	3:26pm Michael 98145: gal sounds happy ...
	3:26pm Will in Norman: real glad i've got headphones on at work rn...
	3:26pm diciassette: No Borders Here is such a great album. Ahoy!
	3:27pm Jason from Houston: !!!
	3:27pm diciassette: No borders for Reiko Ike either!
	3:27pm ShelbyG: Someone’s been naughty 😬
	3:27pm listener james from westwood: Heyo! What's Japanese for "safeword"?
	3:27pm P-90: Now this is the kind of Friday drive time programming I’m talking about
	3:28pm Joe McG: Sheila, I bought the Reiko Ike record from a former WFMU DJ at one of our mini Record Fairs and he called me a pervert! :)
	3:28pm djsheilab: P-90—Right?!
	3:29pm djsheilab: Joe McG—You most certainly ARE! :)
	3:29pm Stanley: Joe! That made me laugh.
	3:29pm Joe McG: @SheilaB: Perverted by WFMU!
	3:30pm Gaylord Fields: @Joe McG: Perhaps if you hadn't immediately thrown the record inside the sleeve straight into the bin…
	3:30pm winston legthigh: im not familiar with keiji haino, will have to check it out. its always a thrill to meet someone u admire.
	3:31pm fred: No Borders was also a record by The Nihilist Spasm Band and Joe McPhee. No female front, but a lot of awesome
	3:32pm Joe McG: @GaylordFields: No, I had it in heavy (or do I mean heavy breathing) rotation at my house for a couple of months afterwards!
	3:32pm Jocelyn: Happy Friday Everyone!
	3:32pm Ken From Hyde Park: Oh, just the EAS? I was afraid it was going to be spiders!
	3:32pm Joe McG: You did it!
	3:33pm P-90: The EAS tests are good on nitrous.
	3:33pm Will in Norman: great job!
	3:33pm BH: The EAS works. The Cubs just homered
	3:33pm Scott Williams: GREAT JOB SHEILA! Jim Price gets the whip
	3:33pm goes211: Broadcasting professional in the house!
	3:33pm listener james from westwood: Like a champ! I was halfway to ducking and covering!
	3:34pm Kpx: Ummmmmmmmmm! WHAT!, Isn't there some kind of FCC regulation prohibiting the broadcasting of pornographic sounds? I'm.. I'm.... I don't know what to say about all that.
	3:34pm redwoodgrove: Has anyone seen Reiko's first film? Sounds like a classic :P www.imdb.com...
	3:34pm P-90: Bryce could do the EAS test and no one would notice.
	3:34pm Gurldoggie: In the case of an actual emergency, I hope you’re in charge of the radio waves!
	3:34pm chresti: Talking like a robot always helps, congratulations Sheila!
	3:34pm Lord Blatherard Osmo: Congrats Sheila -- you are now a Master of The EAS!
	3:34pm winston legthigh: haha p90!
	3:35pm yippie: I like this Japanese whip better than the one in jingle bells
	3:36pm ShelbyG: I am entertained by the kink. Need uplifting after this dumb week.
	3:36pm fred: @P-90: That sounds like a good thing to me
	3:36pm Michael 98145: @rwg, "with quivering walls" ?!?
	3:37pm WM: Does the Reiko Ike song reveal a up to now hidden side of our favorite Sophisticated DJ? Yes! More nasty songs and kink!
	3:37pm Will in Norman: yeah there was even some heavy rain here in oklahoma! not at the level y'all saw tho
	3:38pm βrian: That was a great movie.
	3:38pm Smurph: Loved Crip Camp! So great to see all the behind the scenes work involved in activism.
	3:39pm P-90: BIF-id- ah
	3:40pm ShelbyG: SheilaB: as always, honest & vulnerable ♥️
	3:41pm DjLorraine: I have seen Crip Camp and they are trying to help the MECFS patients learn advocacy that changes things for the good. The movie UNREST will open peoples eyes too.
	3:42pm ?: In case you wanted to reach out to your listeners in the Bay Area there will be a free outdoor screening of Crip Camp in Berkeley on Sep 9. https://bampfa.org/event/crip-camp-disability-revolution
	3:42pm winston legthigh: cripcamp.com
	3:43pm Seamus from Saginaw: thank you Sheila B. Learning and growing is great. keep on!
	3:43pm fred: @Sheila: You have a show on WFMU, so a leg up. But yeah, keep an eye open, it should be easier for you, then report back. It might help more than you think
	3:43pm DjLorraine: I know someone who was there when they were climbing the steps
	3:46pm ShelbyG: Hi DjL! This is fantastic Friday music!!!!
	3:46pm mariano: Thanks for the kind words KenFHP, winston, fred, ShelbyG (RUNZA POWER!), and Stanley! All good at my aunt's house in Houston, heading up to NYC on Monday. Hope everyone in the Northeast is OK.
	3:46pm djsheilab: Kpx—Moaning in Japanese is all good!
	3:47pm Juli: Haha yes.
	3:47pm Passaic River Blues: Never heard of Lenae before, but this is a jam!
	3:47pm Seamus from Saginaw: i spent a few years needing to use a scooter at the supermarket due to a medical condition. it's amazing how hateful and cruel rich old white women are, lol
	3:48pm Jett: @DjSheilaB hello my supercool friend. Hope things are great by you, and Alvy Singer. All is well here, enjoying the show!
	3:48pm fred: @Mariano: I hope you can get back to NOLA soon, but that seems dicey now
	3:49pm DjLorraine: Shelby 😁
	3:49pm Polyus: Oh wow I haven’t heard this in forever!
	3:49pm Gurldoggie: Oh thank you. Neneh cherry always and forever.
	3:49pm ShelbyG: Neneh 🦬
	3:50pm Seamus from Saginaw: Neneh is forever the best!
	3:50pm DjLorraine: I'm doing the Buffalo stance anyways
	3:51pm Juli: Reiko heart eyes
	3:51pm Jocelyn: I loved Crip Camp. Many years ago I read a zine called Driving Blind. The author Erin was incredible. She was the first to explain I’m not sick, I don’t need pity
	3:52pm JtotheK: Nice Prof Longhair sample. Hiya SheilaB, hi everyone.
	3:52pm Seamus from Saginaw: much love and power Jocelyn!
	3:53pm ShelbyG: LOVING THE SHOW 🥳🥳🥳
	3:53pm Juli: Lily Allen Heart Eyes lol
	3:53pm djsheilab: Appreciate seeing all your comments on Crip Camp. Jocelyn—The simple explanation of "I'm not sick" REALLY hit hard + woke me up. That sounds like a great 'zine.
	3:54pm Passaic River Blues: @JtotheK: same thought over here. "Speaking of New Orleans, here comes a 'Fess sample..."
	3:55pm HyperDose: The CSS remix of Lily's Alfie song is "tight"!
	3:55pm djsheilab: Thanks ShelbyB! Hey Seamus from Saginaw, JtotheK, DjLorraine, mariano, Smurph, Will in Norman, yippie, Lord Blatherard Osmo, chresti, Gurldoggie, WM + Brian!
	3:56pm dreamyandseedy: Everytime you play Lily Allen it's like I'm hearing her for the first time, her music is so unique and catchy and just a little bit off-kilter. is alright, still her only good record?
	3:56pm Jett: Hello to my friend @DjLorraine I hope things are doing fine where you are as well.😉
	3:56pm Seamus from Saginaw: Hi, djsheilab!
	3:56pm Juli: Yikes lol
	3:57pm Juli: Love CSS
	3:58pm Avrilinmay: ::siiiiiigh:: that has been my week. my last few months. my whole g..damn summer ! Love Lily Allen :D LOVE her ! (and forgot about this track (How could I!). Thank you Sheila!)
	3:58pm Juli: Cutes
	3:58pm Jett: Great Emotions track! Nice to hear it! It's been awhile. @DjSheilaB
	3:58pm djsheilab: Hey Jett!
	3:59pm djsheilab: Awww...my pleasure! @Avrilinmay
	3:59pm Seamus from Saginaw: after 42 years i've now changed which leg is under when i sit crossed legged. its amazing :)
	3:59pm mndave: Glen Campbell, quite the Occasional Man!
	3:59pm Jett: Both Glenn and Bobbie are awesome!
	4:00pm Vanessa Tara: like this track
	4:00pm ShelbyG: I love Glen Campbell 🥰
	4:00pm Seamus from Saginaw: Jett yes they are
	4:01pm ShelbyG: Hi Jett 👋🏼
	4:01pm Rob Kopp: Who is that!? Never heard of her
	4:02pm Seamus from Saginaw: ShelbyG he was such a great song writer
	4:02pm Elizabeth: Ooh! Reminds me of the rhythm they play on Paraguayan harp!
	4:02pm djsheilab: Rob Kopp—A badass guitarist from Brazil!
	4:03pm Juli: Heyyyyyyyyy everyone hehe
	4:03pm Jett: @DjSheilaB Forgive me if I'm wrong but I think the guitarists first name is Helena.
	4:03pm Seamus from Saginaw: that's awesome Elizabeth!
	4:03pm Rob Kopp: Love it
	4:03pm Passaic River Blues: For a second I thought this was the Velly Joonas Estonian cover of "I See Red" (which is also awesome--funky violin stabs are top notch in that one).
	4:03pm ShelbyG: Seamus: Wichita Lineman makes me cry every time.
	4:03pm djsheilab: Jett—Typo, thanks!
	4:03pm asheville jon: Soooo excited about the new ABBA!
	4:04pm Jett: Nice to see you here. @ShelbyG 🌝
	4:04pm Seamus from Saginaw: love the 1982 hair. my mom had that hair at the time :)
	4:05pm kuriousornj: this Frida song covered by Velly Joonas "stopp, seisku aeg" is bliss!
	4:05pm Jett: Anything for you. @DjSheilaB, Apparently ABBA is reuniting, how 'bout that
	4:05pm Seamus from Saginaw: ShelbyG my great grandpa died working the lines so that song gets me too <3
	4:05pm Michael 98145: in Europe in the early 80s it seemed like LOTSA gals had plum-coloured hair
	4:06pm holland oats: digital abba is philip k dick level scary
	4:06pm Seamus from Saginaw: lol, i know right holland oats
	4:07pm JtotheK: i like the david bowie drawing on the Frida album.
	4:09pm ShelbyG: Have a guest. Back soon!
	4:09pm Seamus from Saginaw: Helena means business in that photo
	4:09pm Mennlinn Rebarts: I love this cover of I see red: www.youtube.com...
	4:10pm Dan: Afternoon Sheila
	4:10pm holland oats: @mennlinn !!!
	4:10pm Seamus from Saginaw: great link Mennlinn Rebarts! thanks
	4:11pm Seamus from Saginaw: Estonia has the most amazing music scene
	4:12pm Avrilinmay: I can already tell I'm going to tear up by the end of this
	4:12pm Seamus from Saginaw: I love this story <3
	4:12pm Mennlinn Rebarts: I had lost track of that song until Sheila playing Frida prompted me to go find it. I will check out some other Estonian music, thanks Seamus!
	4:13pm Seamus from Saginaw: Avrilinmay i'm already there :)
	4:13pm SnackGirl in BK: Hi Sheila and accu!
	4:13pm Seamus from Saginaw: hi Snacks!
	4:14pm P-90: That was excellent
	4:14pm Jett: Maybe Peggy Seeger could become invisible, but You @DjSheilaB, but someone as amazing as you could never be invisible to me. You're just much to important in my view. I refuse to believe that beautiful souls can never become invisible. I hold you in very high regard, and know I will always value you as someone to admire and as a friend!
	4:14pm jeanli: YaaaY SeekerZ!!
	4:14pm SnackGirl in BK: Seamus! What's good?
	4:14pm Dave In Leicester: New Abba Sheila 😉 Agnetha and Anni-Frid sounding amazing
	4:14pm SnackGirl in BK: I love being unemployed because I get to listen to WFMU all day!
	4:14pm Will in Norman: ooh nice has kind of a joe meek feel
	4:15pm PaulRobeson1920: Hi Hi Hi djsheilab & all! Peggy Seeger!!!! A dear friend!!!
	4:15pm Seamus from Saginaw: Friday feelings SnackGrrrl!
	4:15pm Vanessa Tara: wow! hard bop from outer space
	4:15pm winston legthigh: happy friday skackgirl in bk!
	4:15pm djsheilab: Hey SnackGirl in BK! Glad you enjoyed, jeanli!
	4:15pm Jett: I remember "Cerveza" by Boots Brown, never heard this version.
	4:15pm Avrilinmay: @Seamus :) (your moniker reminds me of the Irish poet -that I have to remind myself, again, to read SOON- !)
	4:16pm Seamus from Saginaw: Snacks me too. Who needs employment when you have FMU?
	4:16pm SnackGirl in BK: That's good, SfromS! Hi winston and djSB! Turns out I have the old strep throat so it's not in my head, but negative for covid so that is always good!
	4:16pm Juli: Women and humans are beautiful at any age.
	4:17pm maestroso: Hi SheilaB! Just tuned in to Cherry Wainer. There's a nice interview with her post-retirement on youtube somewhere.
	4:17pm winston legthigh: covid no bueno, feel better snackgirl.
	4:17pm P-90: Ouch, strep throat‘s a real bish
	4:17pm Geoffrey in Ottawa: Fall-feeling day here today. Sitting outside, watching the Cubs and listening to your show, one last time for both before I'm masked and back in the classroom next week.
	4:17pm Seamus from Saginaw: Avril thanks. I've been neglecting literature for too long myself
	4:17pm Juli: It all is about how the person lives imo
	4:18pm fred: Age is real, but how you approach it is even more real. Tara Jane O'Neil is 48, she does have references that show her age but she takes a now approach. And there's a DJ on WFMU called Sheila who makes age both meaningful and meaningless
	4:18pm Seamus from Saginaw: Geoffrey that sounds sublime. Go Tigers!
	4:18pm Juli: AS truth.
	4:19pm djsheilab: Hey Vanessa Tara, Mennlinn Rebarts, Dan, Geoffrey in Ottawa, maestroso + PaulRobeson1920!
	4:19pm chresti: I used to get strep throat a lot, when I was growing up in a smoking household, and when I smoked.
	4:20pm Vanessa Tara: the ace of cups ... on that fault line between hippie and punk
	4:20pm Juli: Sheila lol The Invisible woman is here~~!
	4:20pm P-90: love that guitar
	4:21pm Seamus from Saginaw: chresti me too. i used to get it 4-5 times a year thru my 20's
	4:21pm yippie: one of favorite record stores in Brooklyn called superior vinyl had to close because they got flooded. he said 4 feet of water. lots of sexy records ruined
	4:21pm Matt Fiveash: Wow this version of Afro Blue is new to me! My love for this melody is boundless
	4:21pm djsheilab: Vanessa Tara—Such an unexpected + intriguing version of "Afro Blue."
	4:21pm Ken From Hyde Park: A GIF from a Kurt Gottschalk playlist (11/9/2012) appropriate for these stormy times - i1052.photobucket.com...
	4:21pm yippie: I mean superior elevation, they said they are reopening around December
	4:22pm PaulRobeson1920: Same here!!! @Matt Fiveash! So good
	4:22pm WM: Ace of Cups! I recognized their version of Afro Blue as soon as they began to sing. They deserve much more recognition and credit. I think there is a youtube video of their performance on TV.
	4:22pm love2laf: This article I read this morning, reminded me of your show last week, and I just love what these Granfluencers are doing to share what they have to offer! www.cp24.com...
	4:23pm SnackGirl in BK: Thanks, all. And hi Juli friend! It was def from karaoke...not even a cool way to get it but I have the best antibiotics the docs got as it's my 3rd time in my life so I'm an old pro now!
	4:23pm djsheilab: Hey Matt Fiveash! It's quite a version.
	4:23pm SnackGirl in BK: @yippie that sucks, i'm sorry :(
	4:23pm Juli: Daw
	4:23pm P-90: That cover of Afro Blue is what I would call a NUMBER ONE HIT if I was Michael Shelley
	4:24pm winston legthigh: its sad when art and history gets destroyed yippie.
	4:24pm Vanessa Tara: and this!!!!
	4:24pm Rob Kopp: This must be the first song from the 80's I really like :-)
	4:24pm Vanessa Tara: 1962 trapped in 1980
	4:25pm DjLorraine: @Jett thank you i am getting stronger. Witicha Lineman always gets me also When NY/NJ gets affordable mold free housing i could relocate
	4:26pm Jett: @P-90 Don't you find that the majority of the material SheilaB plays qualifies as a #1 record if this were the Michael Shelley program?
	4:26pm Juli: Hi Sheila B My apologies for being rude I was unaware of my surroundings.
	4:27pm djsheilab: Juli—You're not being rude! Happy to have you here :)
	4:27pm SnackGirl in BK: @Juli you were rude?? That's rude! jk, hope you are doing well
	4:27pm I k e: Hopefully you did not get any messages from sleazy dudes last week saying, “Middle-aged!? You’re still young enough for me, hubba hubba!” or anything like that. I mean, other than Joe McGasko, who is obviously sending messages like that every week! 🤣
	4:28pm Dan: Who is this enchanting voice?
	4:28pm Jett: I'm in Queens N.Y @DjLorraine If you decide to move, come by me. We can meet for breakfast in the morning! I made grits today. Hadn't made grits in years! Quite tasty.
	4:28pm I k e: Now see, THAT’S rude!
	4:28pm Seamus from Saginaw: Quando quando quando!
	4:28pm SnackGirl in BK: @DjLorraine - it's not so bad! I just tested my apartment for mold and it came back negative!
	4:29pm JtotheK: ugh, bummer to hear about Sup. Elevation -- not that I expect him to remember me, but I frequented the shop the owner and his bro and friend ran locally around here. (and his brother has a new local shop now.)
	4:29pm Juli: <3<3
	4:29pm djsheilab: I k e—HA! Thankfully not.
	4:29pm Jett: @Juli You're not rude, and are very appreciated 'round here.
	4:30pm Juli: Aw thanks guys you are sweet
	4:31pm fred: Let's be real though, anyone over 25, 30 to be generous, is old
	4:32pm Jett: That's a favorite Judee Sill track, ty for playing.👍
	4:32pm Matt Fiveash: yippie- that's terrible news about superior elevation! Only made it over there once but scored some super cool jamaican 45s for cheap. and they had a friendly vibe, at least the one time I went...glad to hear that they're not going extinct at least.
	4:32pm Juli: Haahhhha wat!
	4:32pm Juli: Imo 80 is old
	4:33pm djsheilab: Juli—I'm with you. 30 is not old.
	4:33pm SnackGirl in BK: @fred - i feel this as a recently over 25 YO. Sad about superior but I will hopefully have a job by December to buy things from them!
	4:34pm djsheilab: Especially as we're living much longer.
	4:34pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: Howdy Sheila and all the BoomBoomers out there. I hope everybody is drying out OK. As for age -- what's that?
	4:34pm βrian: 35 is the age of adulthood.
	4:35pm nuleba: Gonna turn 25 in a week or so. Existentialism is kicking in
	4:35pm SnackGirl in BK: @nuleba - get a primary care physician now! trust me!
	4:36pm PaulRobeson1920: Kick in some $ for the greatest radio station in the world!!! @nuleba!!!!! Or not that is OK too
	4:36pm Michael 98145: ... and save every penny you can
	4:37pm Avrilinmay: In my brain, just went off a sonic flashback to the (amazing) soundtrack of a show (on a streaming platform by a company-that-shall-not-be-named) based on Chris Kraus' book. Specifically during the last episode if I am remembering correctly. Probably also coupled with the previous track
	4:37pm SnackGirl in BK: @βrian: thank god i got a few more young years :) @PaulR: yes! always!
	4:38pm Juli: I feel younger than before but my body hurts until 9 AM....but I used to not be awake to 9AM so...
	4:38pm fred: For whisky, 25 years is a lot, beyond that, the wood contribution isn't that noticeable. 30 maybe. Beyond that is frankly financial speculation. What? The conversation wasn't about booze? I have nothing then
	4:38pm D Rok: Yes! zipper merge is the way!
	4:38pm Seamus from Saginaw: no judgement here lol
	4:39pm Andrew_in_WI: You're supposed to zipper!!!
	4:39pm Juli: And now I ave to exercise or eat really well O yea and I stopped drinking lool
	4:39pm chris in the redwoods: ha! was just going to say that about late merging. hehe. also, hello, Sheila and folks.
	4:39pm Sean: Zipper merge is the correct solution. It's the engineered solution. It's how the system is supposed to work.
	4:39pm SnackGirl in BK: Wow -- this is huge news can someone post the article for my sister and father?
	4:39pm P-90: “TRAFFIC EXPERTS AGREE!”
	4:39pm Seamus from Saginaw: wait nvm. you are a monster!
	4:39pm Juli: *HAVE
	4:39pm jeanli: um zipper merging just means every other car goes--it doesnt mean you go to the front of the line sorry
	4:39pm mndave: Love the zipper. My jaw dropped on a recent drive through IL when 4 toll booths went from 2 lanes to 1 onramp lane on the tollway in a matter of seconds. It was breathtaking.
	4:40pm P-90: @jeanli -don’t spoil it for her!
	4:40pm hee: It's always great when the establishment legitimizes your selfishness
	4:40pm Seamus from Saginaw: mndave sounds heroic
	4:40pm Sean: You only get to go to the front of the line if no one else is zippering.
	4:40pm b200: Jumping to the front is not zipper merging. Zipper merge means each lane takes turns.
	4:41pm SnackGirl in BK: I just request that drivers please yield to pedestrians when in NYC thank you!! Zipper merge all you want!
	4:41pm jersey duckets: ..... Zipper merging means that you alternate cars when merging. You keep using this term... I don't not think it means what you think it means. You just cut people off.
	4:41pm I k e: Ugh… well, as long as you are doing it from actual lane and not a friggin’ shoulder or something… illegal shoulder zipper mergers are the worst, and definitely not what that article was validating…
	4:41pm djsheilab: Yeah no spoiling! And I don't cut people off! I merge elegantly :)
	4:41pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: Sheila, you can zipper merge into my Friday afternoons anytime.
	4:42pm Juli: EVERYONE slow down please ty About to be driving
	4:42pm P-90: Illegal Shoulder Zipper Mergers are the BANE of civilized society!
	4:42pm yen: google traffic in ho chi minh city vietnam, tell me what kinda merging that is
	4:42pm Seamus from Saginaw: Bob I love the flexibility of your name <3
	4:43pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: @jersey duckets (and other Zipper Merge Truthers): Isn't Sheila trying to do that (alternate cars merging) when she goes to the front of the line? Is it her fault that everyone else is lining up in a single queue like a lemming?
	4:43pm Therese: Happy to provide the validation you need, Sheila!
	4:43pm djsheilab: You're the best, Therese!
	4:44pm Jeff Moore: You're clearly willfully misunderstanding the phrase "zipper merge" to mean your hatefully rude habit of zipping past everyone then merging. Organized zipper merging is absolutely the best way to handle merging! It means a nice strict alternation of people merging – left, then right, then left, etcetera. It actually works in practice in places where people are used to the rules and follow them (the Holland Tunnel NJ to NY is a fine example – at least when local people, not tourists, make up the majority of the traffic). Speeding up to the head of an existing already-merged lane of traffic is the opposite of organized. It's a sign of sociopathy.
	4:44pm P-90: “Zipper Merge Truthers” I’m dying
	4:44pm Passaic River Blues: Generally, zipper merging occurs when two lanes dissolve into one, with cars in each lane taking turns to proceed into the single lane. It does not mean driving abreast of a moving traffic lane in the shoulder or an exit lane, and then cutting back into the moving lane. I think some people conflate the two. Zipper merging is awesome; the latter is selfish bullshit.
	4:45pm Seamus from Saginaw: yen i love watching live streams of people driving scooters in Vietnam and other southeast Asian countries. you'd get murdered in Michigan on those things
	4:45pm SnackGirl in BK: i thought at first this meant you could fix the broken zippers on my hoodies, Sheila. Sad it got to this point but i may still mail a broken zipper to WFMU.
	4:45pm djsheilab: Oh I'm so glad I revisited this topic!
	4:46pm winston legthigh: thanks for the tuneage djsheilab, its martini time. happy weekend everybody.
	4:46pm P-90: lol
	4:46pm Jocelyn: I love A-ha! I’m still so shocked they didn’t know it was Morten on The Masked Singer, his voice is very unique.
	4:46pm Jocelyn: I need to drive more.
	4:47pm fred: I don't drive, so that's not relevant to me. Critical Mass bullies are. One at work told me point blank they hate pedestrians (he drives to critical mass rallies) and that they'd beat me up if they found me
	4:47pm Seamus from Saginaw: Snacks I thought the same thing lol
	4:47pm jersey duckets: Bob in DC..... No, driving past everyone and cutting into a lane to take an exit is not zipper merging. A simple Google image search can clearly depict what a zipper merge is.
	4:48pm Will in Norman: @fred that's bizarre. i hate car culture
	4:48pm Will in Norman: this is pretty
	4:48pm DjLorraine: Snaps and velcro .. anyone?
	4:48pm HyperDose: Unexpected adventure awaits you!
	4:49pm Seamus from Saginaw: fred, that's like here. certain people target cyclists and people on scooters. its very sad
	4:49pm Ken From Hyde Park: I see the artist Someone is the guest next week. Perhaps the week after that, a defensive driving instructor can pop in to clarify the zipper merge discussion.
	4:49pm Jeff Moore: @fred: Wait, the Critical Mass bicycle people hate people who walk around on their legs?
	4:49pm SnackGirl in BK: @fred that's not good :( but do you wear hoodies with zippers? we need to find a real Zipper Merger who can fix all these zippers! Also, and I don't wanna speak out of turn here, but has anyone ever tried putting a zipper on a car? Like as an accent piece?
	4:50pm Juli: Trying to become a seamstress of sorts Yet I am taking a zipper to a professional yea
	4:50pm Juli: Haha love those
	4:50pm Jeff Moore: @fred: or were you talking about a car person who wants to terrorize bike people?
	4:50pm Seamus from Saginaw: my fav hoodie doesn't have zippers! i'm good to go!
	4:51pm Dave In Leicester: Wow this Arooj Aftab is a real beauty
	4:51pm mndave: @fred: Completely baffling. Every pedestrian and cyclist your coworker sees is NOT a car in their way, so praise and adulation should be their only reaction
	4:51pm Seamus from Saginaw: Jeff Moore I think frd meant motorists
	4:51pm fred: @Will in Norman: Lot of virtue signaling here. Wealthy people drive from suburbs then bike in the city, and are total assholes there
	4:52pm Juli: Must du dishes Peace till later All I wanna do is lay down to this tho
	4:52pm faraz: Awesome by Arooj Aftab.
	4:53pm HyperDose: Don't forget the trash!
	4:53pm Rob Kopp: what a beautiful song
	4:53pm That Goddam Todd: Sharing with my sister. Adding to my Spotify. I never get sh*t for work done when I listen to your show
	4:53pm fred: @Jeff Moore: Bike people are generally assholes in Paris. It's getting worse
	4:53pm Seamus from Saginaw: right Rob Kopp. so good :)
	4:54pm djsheilab: Haha....That's a good thing, I think? @That Goddam Todd
	4:54pm Juli: Cindy-relly cindy-relly Nah I enjoy cleaning...you get to see all your things and feng shui and s u c h
	4:55pm Juli: FMU helps.
	4:55pm djsheilab: I'm going straight to Pioneer Works after my show to see Arooj Aftab perform live. I shall report back!
	4:55pm SnackGirl in BK: fred - this all stinks...i've never been to Paris but want to visit soon and that's a good tip for a walker like me! This music is gorgeous
	4:55pm Juli: Heart Eyes!
	4:55pm Seamus from Saginaw: Rob talk about beautiful. This is awesome <3
	4:56pm P-90: Wear. a. mask.
	4:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: @fred - I thought I read recently that the Paris mayor has slowed the traffic speed limit to 30 km/h (19mph).
	4:56pm djsheilab: P-90—That's the plan!
	4:56pm Rob Kopp: @Seamus: These last 2 songs are fantastic indeed
	4:57pm Seamus from Saginaw: So so good
	4:57pm Juli: Paris is a seashell shaped dream.
	4:58pm Juli: & they love NYC.
	4:58pm Seamus from Saginaw: Estonia has bonkers great music :)
	4:58pm fred: I was told it's the same in the Netherlands, in that bikers feel superior. Difference in Paris is that living there is so expensive that most non-rich people work there but don't live there. So bikes are for rich people who live there, and they pull rank
	4:58pm DjLorraine: Arooj Aftab! Mask up, i find Halyard brand easy to breath in and there is a fog strip inside for glasses wearers
	4:58pm Dave In Leicester: Don’t know how anyone could work with this show as background, I get so absorbed and enjoy a glass of wine with it, it is evening here tho
	4:59pm Seamus from Saginaw: their early 2000's shoegaze scene was sweet
	4:59pm SnackGirl in BK: Dave - yeah I am struggling right now focusing on homework as it just isn't as fun!
	4:59pm Juli: I am having a hard time leaving the floor yeas lol
	5:00pm Will in Norman: i listen to this show while working. keeps my mind from wandering too much, podcasts help me in the same way
	5:01pm love2laf: I totally give up doing anything once Sheila's on the air. Just listen and revel in the lush music, and fascinating chat on the radio, and here :)
	5:01pm Juli: Lol kk I will stand up to dance
	5:01pm Seamus from Saginaw: Snacks keep pushing one problem at a time :) you're doing awesome!
	5:02pm djsheilab: Music to my ears, friends! I love hearing how you each listen to the show.
	5:02pm D Rok: This track is HOT!
	5:03pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: @jersey duckets But HOW are you supposed to zipper merge if nobody else is zipper merging? If Sheila goes to the front of one lane and politely inserts herself, that's a sign to other motorists that they can do the same. Zipper merging ensues -- problem solved.
	5:03pm Seamus from Saginaw: i have a good feeling about this last hour!
	5:04pm Seamus from Saginaw: djsheilab I bop my head a lot
	5:05pm SnackGirl in BK: ABBA!!!
	5:05pm Seamus from Saginaw: sweet
	5:06pm D Rok: Leave it to djsheilab to instigate my first listen to the new ABBA! I wouldn't want it any other way.
	5:06pm SnackGirl in BK: Oh yeah homework is due Wednesday there is plenty of time for ABBA! Plus I should do my WFMU homework first...
	5:06pm Asheville Jon: YES!!!!!! NEW ABBA!!!!! omg, yesterday's announcements and videos totally made my year
	5:08pm Seamus from Saginaw: hi, Asheville Jon. it's pretty great <3
	5:08pm Andrea Egert: Sheila B., happy Friday and please know that I cherish this long-awaited ABBA moment ALWAYS!!!!<3
	5:08pm SnackGirl in BK: when the antibiotics and ABBA hit I am running in the face
	5:09pm Micheal: So glad to be hearing this new ABBA on Sophisticated Boom Boom!
	5:09pm HyperDose: That floored me
	5:09pm Bimbus Bambus: Is this maybe the longest gap between releases...ever??
	5:09pm morphe': Simon an I were out all day .. Abba news .. concert with Avatars...?? https://www.theguardian.com/music/2021/sep/02/abba-reunite-for-voyage-first-new-album-in-40-years
	5:09pm Seamus from Saginaw: hi, Andrea Egert. It's really good
	5:10pm Jett: We love ABBA! Thank You For The Music!
	5:10pm Bimbus Bambus: Even the Beatles only waited 35 years.
	5:10pm Vanessa Tara: i do, i do, i do, i do, i do ...
	5:10pm Bimbus Bambus: 25...
	5:10pm Seamus from Saginaw: i'm 42 I can't express how much I love ABBA
	5:10pm Yooper: I love it when truckers stop the non zipper mergers by taking up two lanes
	5:11pm Andrea Egert: Hey Seamus!! Wasn't that amazing?!!!
	5:11pm Jett: @DjSheilaB I hear ya! on ABBA❤️
	5:12pm SnackGirl in BK: ABBA worth the wait...any wait <3
	5:12pm Seamus from Saginaw: I had a roommate when I was 19 that was an ABBA junkie. I got along with him very well :)
	5:13pm HyperDose: I just want to be in at least one ABBA flash mob before I check out
	5:14pm Seamus from Saginaw: an evening out with Sheila and Gaylord sounds so fun!
	5:14pm Gaylord Fields: @Bimbus Bambus: Linda Perhacs had a 44-year gap between her first and second albums.
	5:15pm djsheilab: HyperDose—Me too please!
	5:15pm djsheilab: Gaylord Fields—Hello to my partner for the evening!
	5:15pm Seamus from Saginaw: hi, Gaylord!
	5:16pm Gaylord Fields: See you soon, Sheila! Hello, Seamus!
	5:17pm michael z: Love this song Sheila. What great guitar work.
	5:17pm Jeff Moore: @Bob: The situation I often see, the particularly infuriating one, is where the majority of motorists have seen the signs saying (or just know) that an exit is coming for which one needs to be in the far right lane, and they conduct an orderly merge into that lane well before getting to that exit. Most of the cars needing to make that exit work their way into that exit lane a half-mile or more before the actual exit leaves the highway. Because of the increased volume of traffic in that lane (because everybody has already merged into it), that lane often ends up moving more slowly than the express lanes to its left. But... pre-merged into that lane is where all the sensible, considerate, empathetic, moral drivers are. Then some SOCIOPATHS whiz past the slower lane of cars pre-merged and ready to take the exit, and push their way into the already-formed exit queue right up front - not only being unconscionably rude, but slowing the pre-merged line down by injecting chaos into what was an orderly queue.
	5:17pm Andrew_in_WI: Sounds like Trouble... if you know what I mean.
	5:17pm fred: I'm 50 and I'd much rather see Zelma Stone in a small venue than pay 100+ to see a video of Abba in a stadium
	5:18pm Seamus from Saginaw: this has been the best friday I've had in ages. Much much love Sheila
	5:18pm Michael 98145: cute cover art
	5:18pm Seamus from Saginaw: have a blast tonight!
	5:19pm morphe': As Gerry of Miami wrote on W&B or .."never liked ABBA in my time" [Punk-Kill RockStars-Disco Sucks) but can appreciate some tunes now ...
	5:20pm Bimbus Bambus: Just occurred to me the Lavender Country album is definitely 40+ years in between as well.
	5:20pm Juli: Yay my bf wanted some quiet chill time so told me not to do the dishes rn basically lol
	5:21pm Juli: It could have been me singing David Bowie obnoxiously...
	5:21pm Juli: THIS is amazing
	5:21pm Beep Boop: Japonica, you say?
	5:21pm Seamus from Saginaw: morphe, even as a dumb kid listening to the Misfits and Sex Pistols I liked disco. No shame in that <3
	5:22pm Seamus from Saginaw: heck PIL embraced disco lol
	5:23pm Jeff Moore: ...and aside from the mischievous merge anthill-stirring: absolutely lovely show as always, and this set is dreamy!
	5:24pm Seamus from Saginaw: Joy Division even had disco-like beats
	5:24pm Juli: Disco s cute
	5:25pm Seamus from Saginaw: Juli. I'm cute :)
	5:25pm Will in Norman: the 'disco sucks' movement had racist & homophobic undertones to it (tho not always intentional)
	5:26pm Seamus from Saginaw: Will in Norman yup.
	5:27pm Juli: Most ppl are Seamus But you are special, too. lols
	5:27pm Seamus from Saginaw: Juli thanks. I am hot lol
	5:27pm Avrilinmay: à propos of bullying (and perhaps even virtue signalling), let's take it down a notch with the "ExPlAiNinG" to a grown human how to drive, guys, maybe. yeah? Let's remember that SOMEONE is actually making your and our existence literally better putting all of their heart and soul into this show, every week... in comparison with projecting some minor traffic road issues (yes, that might be annoying when they happen, we all agree with you, but ... let's regain some perspective shall we ? ) Peace.
	5:28pm Juli: Good for you Seamus Good for you~!
	5:28pm morphe': From Seamus ... .. yes ... that was my point .. gave away my Stones and JAirplane and .... ???? in the late 70's in the spirit of Kill rock Stars .. no regrets ..but now at the age of 60 I can now hear new nuances to things I disliked so I am more open/less harsh to some 70-80 Disco-ish sounds I shied from .. please - No Eagles..... nor Doobie Brothers ...
	5:29pm Seamus from Saginaw: sheesh, this side convo is heated lol
	5:29pm Jeff Moore: @Will in Norman: for sure. I was way too inattentive to realize that at the time, but in retrospect - really pretty gross.
	5:31pm Seamus from Saginaw: morphe no Eagles yes. I can take a Doobie Brothers song if I must but, NO EAGLES lol
	5:31pm fm Mike: Hi Hi Allll
	5:32pm Juli: I can handle most things sarcastically...most things.
	5:32pm fred: @Will in Norman: I now realize the underlying hate there. I still dislike disco (hate was and remains too strong a word). So I'm a Nazi?
	5:32pm Seamus from Saginaw: Hotel California kills my soul lol
	5:32pm Seamus from Saginaw: Hi, fm Mike!
	5:33pm headcleaner: This song just keeps coming back at me
	5:33pm Will in Norman: i'm not saying everyone who dislikes disco is racist/homophobic by default. just that it did motivate some people's attitudes against it back in the 70s
	5:33pm djsheilab: Avrilinmay—You're lovely, thank you. I'm quite enjoying the fiery convo!
	5:34pm Seamus from Saginaw: fred, we're all friends here. keep it cool <3
	5:34pm michael z: Who is Justine Forever? Such a cool song. Sheila is encyclopedic. .
	5:35pm Seamus from Saginaw: love you fred
	5:35pm SnackGirl in BK: Re: Bandcamp day, if anyone likes punk or guitar rock in any genre, I'd check out my friends here. Lots of soggy records yesterday from them too according to Twitter: explodinginsoundrecords.bandcamp.com
	5:35pm Juli: Lol huh?
	5:36pm Bimbus Bambus: @Will Yeah, it was more the aligning oneself with the Disco Sucks movement/dog whistle that was the tell
	5:36pm Juli: Ty SG
	5:36pm Avrilinmay: a cover (I have never heard of) of one my all-time favourite french songs! anyone who would like to discover the original, Trouble's French-centric show was great (around the week before Bastille day)
	5:37pm morphe': Will in Nornman - no racism or phobia for me .. at the time of that for me . I was down with Brother D and the Collective Effort and Grandmaster and .. it was the fame and fashion and $$$$ that I opposed .. Spent the late 70s early '80s at the Mudd Club, TR3 and the Pyramid . and worked at St Marks Bookshop '82-86 = . David Wojnarowicz ..the Boy Bar .. etc ..we hated the fame searchers and the $$$ seekers
	5:37pm fred: @Avrilinmay: I don't drive. Got my license, but I prefer transit (more time to read). At night, I like to walk (not always a choice, but I can do it). But now I have to watch out for critical mass rallies as well as soccer games as dangerous times
	5:37pm Seamus from Saginaw: thanks Snacks!
	5:38pm chris in the redwoods: off to hear some live music outside. thanks for all the lovely sounds, Sheila. take good care and yet still have too much fun, everyone.
	5:39pm Andrea Egert: Enjoy some good masked fun on your outing tonight, Gaylord (who I have the distinct pleasure and privilege to know as Palley) & Sheila B.!!
	5:40pm Seamus from Saginaw: I have Susana Baca- Maria Lando in my head. "Solo Trabaja!"
	5:40pm Juli: We do it.
	5:40pm Vanessa Tara: i don't drive ... so i abstain
	5:40pm Will in Norman: @morphe' that's an understandable reason to be anti-disco. the 'disco sucks' people that I was referring to was more the type that were involved in Chicago's 'Disco Demolition Night' in 1979
	5:40pm P-90: Shoulder?
	5:41pm Jett: I'll always let you cut in @DjSheilaB. It's called The Shoulder.
	5:41pm HyperDose: My mom would grab the "oh sh*t" handle and hit the invisible brake pedal often
	5:41pm Juli: No shoulder usually...that is dangerous.
	5:41pm I k e: Wow! That Tehran story explains a LOT!!! 😹
	5:41pm Seamus from Saginaw: I love this story
	5:41pm Jason from Houston: HELL YAH GO MOM
	5:42pm Vanessa Tara: @will in norman: the one hosted by radio host steve dahl
	5:42pm fm Mike: @HyperDose oh my god, my mom STILL does THAT lol
	5:42pm djsheilab: Shoulder! Thank you!
	5:42pm Juli: Lmao
	5:42pm Handy Haversack: Greetings from the peaceful country down here in Maine! Hope you are all well, Sheila and Sophisticates.
	5:42pm P-90: We all knew Persian Mom was ultimately gonna get blamed for this
	5:42pm That Goddam Todd: Her version of Honeysuckle Rose is a pillar of the Permanent Mush Mix from me to my beloved
	5:42pm Seamus from Saginaw: happy labor day workers! solidarity!
	5:42pm SnackGirl in BK: How do we feel about traffic circles though? Everyone hates those right? Oh hi Handy!!!
	5:43pm Vanessa Tara: wish me a happy 51st this monday!!!!!

	5:46pm Handy Haversack: Great cover. Hotsie motsie. I have driven about 500 miles in the last two days. Tomorrow, we strap the canoe to the car.
	5:47pm SnackGirl in BK: HBD, Vanessa! 51 is the new 31!
	5:47pm djsheilab: Hey Monica! Shame about your upended plans. That storm really messed with everything.
	5:47pm fred: Sheila, I love your show, your T-shirt is amazing, and the tote from years ago is big enough to hold my cowboys boots to get them to my cobbler. So thanks for everything.
	5:47pm Michael 98145: Happy Birthday, @Vanessa. Love to our BC friends.
	5:47pm Seamus from Saginaw: this is great!

	5:49pm HyperDose: @Seamus Neither do Dire Straits
	5:49pm Seamus from Saginaw: all i know Green was a hugely formative album for me
	5:52pm morphe': Oh yes .. 6pm Thanks Shelia B and separate Gif spinner?? and all.. Thanks Juli for the 29 Nov pages ... as I said ... quite accurate assessment..
	5:52pm Jett: Ty @DjSheilaB for giving all of us this precious gift of a wonderful show. You are so awesome. Look forward to your next telecast. Stay well, Enjoy your week! 😉
	5:52pm Seamus from Saginaw: HyperDose Mark Knopfler does get a lot of critical praise to be fair
	5:52pm Handy Haversack: R.E.M. was my first and fourth concerts. Still much love. Happy bday, Vanessa Tara! And thanks, Sheila!
	5:52pm SnackGirl in BK: Handy - I am happy to report Greenpoint has mostly dried out...many soggy books and records on the streets remain. Sheila! Great show!

	5:54pm Rick G: Thanks for steering this show in so many wonderful directions, Sheila-the merging of genres and eras!

	5:56pm Jocelyn: Wishing everyone a safe happy weekend!
	5:57pm fred: @Handy: I never saw REM, but Document was definitely a turning point for me (not as much as New Order, but still)
	5:58pm michael z: Thank you so much Sheila. I am now going to listen to the first ninety minutes of your show. I saw The Mothers of Invention at The Albert Hall when Suzy Creemcheese was with them. And what a perfect final song. It always sends chills.
	5:58pm Jason from Houston: ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎
	5:58pm Kpx: Time is an illusion, the past present and future is a constant at the same time. Anything that exists is constantly aging and changing, especially for living organisms that have the shortest existence of all. However the trade off there is the greatest gift of all; Awareness!, to be able to perceiving and know of existence and the wonders of it. When one thinks about the improbable astronomical odds of existing as a living higher intelligent functioning being, the question of aging should not even be of a concern, rather that the quality of your existence is. We all are the same age at different times, or just all having a life experience at different junctures in our own time that is unique to ourselves. Just knowing that we are alive to have them at all stages during our lives is a blessing in itself.
	5:58pm Michael 98145: yes
	5:59pm ראש השנה: Thanks, Sheila. Happy Rosh Hashanah!
	5:59pm Jeff Moore: Thanks for the wide-ranging yet coherent, absolutely damn lovely show, SheilaB! It was a gift.

	6:00pm listener james from westwood: Many thanks, Sheila!
	6:00pm Avrilinmay: ooooh ... oh nooo ... this is going to finish me off
	6:00pm P-90: Thanks!
	6:00pm chresti: Thanks Sheila B!
	6:01pm Seamus from Saginaw: yes happy Rosh Hashanah!
	6:01pm That Goddam Todd: First time I've been able to sit and listen, properly, for quite some time. Always a pleasure. Thanks...
	6:05pm fred: @Sheila: I hope you can picture a guy wearing a perfecto jacket carrying a pair of cowboy boots to a cobbler's shop in a Sophisticated Boom Boom tote bag. Because there are no pictures, though it happened several times, and will happen next week
	6:35pm Avrilinmay: @fred : so sorry to have missed your reply. My figurative (attention) plate was full between listening, catching up with the comments from earlier in the show -since I arrived late- and real life stuff always getting in the way (AArrgh) But yes, I completely hear you! (and were I living where you are -which has always been my aim but that's another story for another day :D - I would have pretty much the same habits). But I am honestly bummed to hear about the tensions with cyclists (although I get where you are coming from). I hope there will be ways to resolve them asap. p.s. Just in case - I am always afraid of misunderstandings on internet chats- I should point out that none of what I said earlier was directed your way! :p

	3:24pm fred: @winston: I once got to meet Keiji Haino. We both were about as interested in meeting each other, so no pic was taken.

	3:28pm djsheilab: P-90—Right?!
	3:29pm djsheilab: Joe McG—You most certainly ARE! :)
	3:29pm Stanley: Joe! That made me laugh.
	3:29pm Joe McG: @SheilaB: Perverted by WFMU!
	3:30pm Gaylord Fields: @Joe McG: Perhaps if you hadn't immediately thrown the record inside the sleeve straight into the bin…
	3:30pm winston legthigh: im not familiar with keiji haino, will have to check it out. its always a thrill to meet someone u admire.
	3:31pm fred: No Borders was also a record by The Nihilist Spasm Band and Joe McPhee. No female front, but a lot of awesome

	3:34pm Kpx: Ummmmmmmmmm! WHAT!, Isn't there some kind of FCC regulation prohibiting the broadcasting of pornographic sounds? I'm.. I'm.... I don't know what to say about all that.
	3:34pm redwoodgrove: Has anyone seen Reiko's first film? Sounds like a classic :P www.imdb.com...
	3:34pm P-90: Bryce could do the EAS test and no one would notice.
	3:34pm Gurldoggie: In the case of an actual emergency, I hope you’re in charge of the radio waves!
	3:34pm chresti: Talking like a robot always helps, congratulations Sheila!
	3:34pm Lord Blatherard Osmo: Congrats Sheila -- you are now a Master of The EAS!
	3:34pm winston legthigh: haha p90!
	3:35pm yippie: I like this Japanese whip better than the one in jingle bells
	3:36pm ShelbyG: I am entertained by the kink. Need uplifting after this dumb week.
	3:36pm fred: @P-90: That sounds like a good thing to me
	3:36pm Michael 98145: @rwg, "with quivering walls" ?!?
	3:37pm WM: Does the Reiko Ike song reveal a up to now hidden side of our favorite Sophisticated DJ? Yes! More nasty songs and kink!

	3:43pm Seamus from Saginaw: thank you Sheila B. Learning and growing is great. keep on!
	3:43pm fred: @Sheila: You have a show on WFMU, so a leg up. But yeah, keep an eye open, it should be easier for you, then report back. It might help more than you think
	3:43pm DjLorraine: I know someone who was there when they were climbing the steps
	3:46pm ShelbyG: Hi DjL! This is fantastic Friday music!!!!
	3:46pm mariano: Thanks for the kind words KenFHP, winston, fred, ShelbyG (RUNZA POWER!), and Stanley! All good at my aunt's house in Houston, heading up to NYC on Monday. Hope everyone in the Northeast is OK.

	3:47pm Passaic River Blues: Never heard of Lenae before, but this is a jam!
	3:47pm Seamus from Saginaw: i spent a few years needing to use a scooter at the supermarket due to a medical condition. it's amazing how hateful and cruel rich old white women are, lol
	3:48pm Jett: @DjSheilaB hello my supercool friend. Hope things are great by you, and Alvy Singer. All is well here, enjoying the show!

	3:50pm DjLorraine: I'm doing the Buffalo stance anyways
	3:51pm Juli: Reiko heart eyes
	3:51pm Jocelyn: I loved Crip Camp. Many years ago I read a zine called Driving Blind. The author Erin was incredible. She was the first to explain I’m not sick, I don’t need pity
	3:52pm JtotheK: Nice Prof Longhair sample. Hiya SheilaB, hi everyone.
	3:52pm Seamus from Saginaw: much love and power Jocelyn!
	3:53pm ShelbyG: LOVING THE SHOW 🥳🥳🥳
	3:53pm Juli: Lily Allen Heart Eyes lol
	3:53pm djsheilab: Appreciate seeing all your comments on Crip Camp. Jocelyn—The simple explanation of "I'm not sick" REALLY hit hard + woke me up. That sounds like a great 'zine.
	3:54pm Passaic River Blues: @JtotheK: same thought over here. "Speaking of New Orleans, here comes a 'Fess sample..."
	3:55pm HyperDose: The CSS remix of Lily's Alfie song is "tight"!
	3:55pm djsheilab: Thanks ShelbyB! Hey Seamus from Saginaw, JtotheK, DjLorraine, mariano, Smurph, Will in Norman, yippie, Lord Blatherard Osmo, chresti, Gurldoggie, WM + Brian!
	3:56pm dreamyandseedy: Everytime you play Lily Allen it's like I'm hearing her for the first time, her music is so unique and catchy and just a little bit off-kilter. is alright, still her only good record?
	3:56pm Jett: Hello to my friend @DjLorraine I hope things are doing fine where you are as well.😉
	3:56pm Seamus from Saginaw: Hi, djsheilab!

	4:03pm Seamus from Saginaw: that's awesome Elizabeth!
	4:03pm Rob Kopp: Love it
	4:03pm Passaic River Blues: For a second I thought this was the Velly Joonas Estonian cover of "I See Red" (which is also awesome--funky violin stabs are top notch in that one).
	4:03pm ShelbyG: Seamus: Wichita Lineman makes me cry every time.
	4:03pm djsheilab: Jett—Typo, thanks!
	4:03pm asheville jon: Soooo excited about the new ABBA!

	4:05pm kuriousornj: this Frida song covered by Velly Joonas "stopp, seisku aeg" is bliss!
	4:05pm Jett: Anything for you. @DjSheilaB, Apparently ABBA is reuniting, how 'bout that
	4:05pm Seamus from Saginaw: ShelbyG my great grandpa died working the lines so that song gets me too <3
	4:05pm Michael 98145: in Europe in the early 80s it seemed like LOTSA gals had plum-coloured hair

	4:12pm Seamus from Saginaw: I love this story <3
	4:12pm Mennlinn Rebarts: I had lost track of that song until Sheila playing Frida prompted me to go find it. I will check out some other Estonian music, thanks Seamus!
	4:13pm Seamus from Saginaw: Avrilinmay i'm already there :)

	4:15pm Avrilinmay: @Seamus :) (your moniker reminds me of the Irish poet -that I have to remind myself, again, to read SOON- !)
	4:16pm Seamus from Saginaw: Snacks me too. Who needs employment when you have FMU?
	4:16pm SnackGirl in BK: That's good, SfromS! Hi winston and djSB! Turns out I have the old strep throat so it's not in my head, but negative for covid so that is always good!
	4:16pm Juli: Women and humans are beautiful at any age.
	4:17pm maestroso: Hi SheilaB! Just tuned in to Cherry Wainer. There's a nice interview with her post-retirement on youtube somewhere.
	4:17pm winston legthigh: covid no bueno, feel better snackgirl.
	4:17pm P-90: Ouch, strep throat‘s a real bish
	4:17pm Geoffrey in Ottawa: Fall-feeling day here today. Sitting outside, watching the Cubs and listening to your show, one last time for both before I'm masked and back in the classroom next week.
	4:17pm Seamus from Saginaw: Avril thanks. I've been neglecting literature for too long myself
	4:17pm Juli: It all is about how the person lives imo
	4:18pm fred: Age is real, but how you approach it is even more real. Tara Jane O'Neil is 48, she does have references that show her age but she takes a now approach. And there's a DJ on WFMU called Sheila who makes age both meaningful and meaningless
	4:18pm Seamus from Saginaw: Geoffrey that sounds sublime. Go Tigers!
	4:18pm Juli: AS truth.
	4:19pm djsheilab: Hey Vanessa Tara, Mennlinn Rebarts, Dan, Geoffrey in Ottawa, maestroso + PaulRobeson1920!
	4:19pm chresti: I used to get strep throat a lot, when I was growing up in a smoking household, and when I smoked.
	4:20pm Vanessa Tara: the ace of cups ... on that fault line between hippie and punk
	4:20pm Juli: Sheila lol The Invisible woman is here~~!
	4:20pm P-90: love that guitar
	4:21pm Seamus from Saginaw: chresti me too. i used to get it 4-5 times a year thru my 20's
	4:21pm yippie: one of favorite record stores in Brooklyn called superior vinyl had to close because they got flooded. he said 4 feet of water. lots of sexy records ruined
	4:21pm Matt Fiveash: Wow this version of Afro Blue is new to me! My love for this melody is boundless
	4:21pm djsheilab: Vanessa Tara—Such an unexpected + intriguing version of "Afro Blue."
	4:21pm Ken From Hyde Park: A GIF from a Kurt Gottschalk playlist (11/9/2012) appropriate for these stormy times - i1052.photobucket.com...
	4:21pm yippie: I mean superior elevation, they said they are reopening around December
	4:22pm PaulRobeson1920: Same here!!! @Matt Fiveash! So good
	4:22pm WM: Ace of Cups! I recognized their version of Afro Blue as soon as they began to sing. They deserve much more recognition and credit. I think there is a youtube video of their performance on TV.
	4:22pm love2laf: This article I read this morning, reminded me of your show last week, and I just love what these Granfluencers are doing to share what they have to offer! www.cp24.com...
	4:23pm SnackGirl in BK: Thanks, all. And hi Juli friend! It was def from karaoke...not even a cool way to get it but I have the best antibiotics the docs got as it's my 3rd time in my life so I'm an old pro now!
	4:23pm djsheilab: Hey Matt Fiveash! It's quite a version.
	4:23pm SnackGirl in BK: @yippie that sucks, i'm sorry :(
	4:23pm Juli: Daw
	4:23pm P-90: That cover of Afro Blue is what I would call a NUMBER ONE HIT if I was Michael Shelley
	4:24pm winston legthigh: its sad when art and history gets destroyed yippie.
	4:24pm Vanessa Tara: and this!!!!
	4:24pm Rob Kopp: This must be the first song from the 80's I really like :-)
	4:24pm Vanessa Tara: 1962 trapped in 1980
	4:25pm DjLorraine: @Jett thank you i am getting stronger. Witicha Lineman always gets me also When NY/NJ gets affordable mold free housing i could relocate
	4:26pm Jett: @P-90 Don't you find that the majority of the material SheilaB plays qualifies as a #1 record if this were the Michael Shelley program?
	4:26pm Juli: Hi Sheila B My apologies for being rude I was unaware of my surroundings.
	4:27pm djsheilab: Juli—You're not being rude! Happy to have you here :)
	4:27pm SnackGirl in BK: @Juli you were rude?? That's rude! jk, hope you are doing well
	4:27pm I k e: Hopefully you did not get any messages from sleazy dudes last week saying, “Middle-aged!? You’re still young enough for me, hubba hubba!” or anything like that. I mean, other than Joe McGasko, who is obviously sending messages like that every week! 🤣
	4:28pm Dan: Who is this enchanting voice?
	4:28pm Jett: I'm in Queens N.Y @DjLorraine If you decide to move, come by me. We can meet for breakfast in the morning! I made grits today. Hadn't made grits in years! Quite tasty.
	4:28pm I k e: Now see, THAT’S rude!
	4:28pm Seamus from Saginaw: Quando quando quando!
	4:28pm SnackGirl in BK: @DjLorraine - it's not so bad! I just tested my apartment for mold and it came back negative!
	4:29pm JtotheK: ugh, bummer to hear about Sup. Elevation -- not that I expect him to remember me, but I frequented the shop the owner and his bro and friend ran locally around here. (and his brother has a new local shop now.)
	4:29pm Juli: <3<3
	4:29pm djsheilab: I k e—HA! Thankfully not.
	4:29pm Jett: @Juli You're not rude, and are very appreciated 'round here.
	4:30pm Juli: Aw thanks guys you are sweet
	4:31pm fred: Let's be real though, anyone over 25, 30 to be generous, is old
	4:32pm Jett: That's a favorite Judee Sill track, ty for playing.👍
	4:32pm Matt Fiveash: yippie- that's terrible news about superior elevation! Only made it over there once but scored some super cool jamaican 45s for cheap. and they had a friendly vibe, at least the one time I went...glad to hear that they're not going extinct at least.
	4:32pm Juli: Haahhhha wat!
	4:32pm Juli: Imo 80 is old
	4:33pm djsheilab: Juli—I'm with you. 30 is not old.
	4:33pm SnackGirl in BK: @fred - i feel this as a recently over 25 YO. Sad about superior but I will hopefully have a job by December to buy things from them!
	4:34pm djsheilab: Especially as we're living much longer.
	4:34pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: Howdy Sheila and all the BoomBoomers out there. I hope everybody is drying out OK. As for age -- what's that?
	4:34pm βrian: 35 is the age of adulthood.
	4:35pm nuleba: Gonna turn 25 in a week or so. Existentialism is kicking in
	4:35pm SnackGirl in BK: @nuleba - get a primary care physician now! trust me!
	4:36pm PaulRobeson1920: Kick in some $ for the greatest radio station in the world!!! @nuleba!!!!! Or not that is OK too
	4:36pm Michael 98145: ... and save every penny you can
	4:37pm Avrilinmay: In my brain, just went off a sonic flashback to the (amazing) soundtrack of a show (on a streaming platform by a company-that-shall-not-be-named) based on Chris Kraus' book. Specifically during the last episode if I am remembering correctly. Probably also coupled with the previous track
	4:37pm SnackGirl in BK: @βrian: thank god i got a few more young years :) @PaulR: yes! always!
	4:38pm Juli: I feel younger than before but my body hurts until 9 AM....but I used to not be awake to 9AM so...
	4:38pm fred: For whisky, 25 years is a lot, beyond that, the wood contribution isn't that noticeable. 30 maybe. Beyond that is frankly financial speculation. What? The conversation wasn't about booze? I have nothing then
	4:38pm D Rok: Yes! zipper merge is the way!
	4:38pm Seamus from Saginaw: no judgement here lol
	4:39pm Andrew_in_WI: You're supposed to zipper!!!
	4:39pm Juli: And now I ave to exercise or eat really well O yea and I stopped drinking lool
	4:39pm chris in the redwoods: ha! was just going to say that about late merging. hehe. also, hello, Sheila and folks.
	4:39pm Sean: Zipper merge is the correct solution. It's the engineered solution. It's how the system is supposed to work.
	4:39pm SnackGirl in BK: Wow -- this is huge news can someone post the article for my sister and father?
	4:39pm P-90: “TRAFFIC EXPERTS AGREE!”
	4:39pm Seamus from Saginaw: wait nvm. you are a monster!
	4:39pm Juli: *HAVE
	4:39pm jeanli: um zipper merging just means every other car goes--it doesnt mean you go to the front of the line sorry
	4:39pm mndave: Love the zipper. My jaw dropped on a recent drive through IL when 4 toll booths went from 2 lanes to 1 onramp lane on the tollway in a matter of seconds. It was breathtaking.
	4:40pm P-90: @jeanli -don’t spoil it for her!
	4:40pm hee: It's always great when the establishment legitimizes your selfishness
	4:40pm Seamus from Saginaw: mndave sounds heroic
	4:40pm Sean: You only get to go to the front of the line if no one else is zippering.
	4:40pm b200: Jumping to the front is not zipper merging. Zipper merge means each lane takes turns.
	4:41pm SnackGirl in BK: I just request that drivers please yield to pedestrians when in NYC thank you!! Zipper merge all you want!
	4:41pm jersey duckets: ..... Zipper merging means that you alternate cars when merging. You keep using this term... I don't not think it means what you think it means. You just cut people off.
	4:41pm I k e: Ugh… well, as long as you are doing it from actual lane and not a friggin’ shoulder or something… illegal shoulder zipper mergers are the worst, and definitely not what that article was validating…
	4:41pm djsheilab: Yeah no spoiling! And I don't cut people off! I merge elegantly :)
	4:41pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: Sheila, you can zipper merge into my Friday afternoons anytime.
	4:42pm Juli: EVERYONE slow down please ty About to be driving
	4:42pm P-90: Illegal Shoulder Zipper Mergers are the BANE of civilized society!
	4:42pm yen: google traffic in ho chi minh city vietnam, tell me what kinda merging that is
	4:42pm Seamus from Saginaw: Bob I love the flexibility of your name <3
	4:43pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: @jersey duckets (and other Zipper Merge Truthers): Isn't Sheila trying to do that (alternate cars merging) when she goes to the front of the line? Is it her fault that everyone else is lining up in a single queue like a lemming?
	4:43pm Therese: Happy to provide the validation you need, Sheila!
	4:43pm djsheilab: You're the best, Therese!
	4:44pm Jeff Moore: You're clearly willfully misunderstanding the phrase "zipper merge" to mean your hatefully rude habit of zipping past everyone then merging. Organized zipper merging is absolutely the best way to handle merging! It means a nice strict alternation of people merging – left, then right, then left, etcetera. It actually works in practice in places where people are used to the rules and follow them (the Holland Tunnel NJ to NY is a fine example – at least when local people, not tourists, make up the majority of the traffic). Speeding up to the head of an existing already-merged lane of traffic is the opposite of organized. It's a sign of sociopathy.
	4:44pm P-90: “Zipper Merge Truthers” I’m dying
	4:44pm Passaic River Blues: Generally, zipper merging occurs when two lanes dissolve into one, with cars in each lane taking turns to proceed into the single lane. It does not mean driving abreast of a moving traffic lane in the shoulder or an exit lane, and then cutting back into the moving lane. I think some people conflate the two. Zipper merging is awesome; the latter is selfish bullshit.
	4:45pm Seamus from Saginaw: yen i love watching live streams of people driving scooters in Vietnam and other southeast Asian countries. you'd get murdered in Michigan on those things
	4:45pm SnackGirl in BK: i thought at first this meant you could fix the broken zippers on my hoodies, Sheila. Sad it got to this point but i may still mail a broken zipper to WFMU.
	4:45pm djsheilab: Oh I'm so glad I revisited this topic!
	4:46pm winston legthigh: thanks for the tuneage djsheilab, its martini time. happy weekend everybody.
	4:46pm P-90: lol
	4:46pm Jocelyn: I love A-ha! I’m still so shocked they didn’t know it was Morten on The Masked Singer, his voice is very unique.
	4:46pm Jocelyn: I need to drive more.
	4:47pm fred: I don't drive, so that's not relevant to me. Critical Mass bullies are. One at work told me point blank they hate pedestrians (he drives to critical mass rallies) and that they'd beat me up if they found me
	4:47pm Seamus from Saginaw: Snacks I thought the same thing lol
	4:47pm jersey duckets: Bob in DC..... No, driving past everyone and cutting into a lane to take an exit is not zipper merging. A simple Google image search can clearly depict what a zipper merge is.
	4:48pm Will in Norman: @fred that's bizarre. i hate car culture
	4:48pm Will in Norman: this is pretty
	4:48pm DjLorraine: Snaps and velcro .. anyone?
	4:48pm HyperDose: Unexpected adventure awaits you!
	4:49pm Seamus from Saginaw: fred, that's like here. certain people target cyclists and people on scooters. its very sad
	4:49pm Ken From Hyde Park: I see the artist Someone is the guest next week. Perhaps the week after that, a defensive driving instructor can pop in to clarify the zipper merge discussion.
	4:49pm Jeff Moore: @fred: Wait, the Critical Mass bicycle people hate people who walk around on their legs?
	4:49pm SnackGirl in BK: @fred that's not good :( but do you wear hoodies with zippers? we need to find a real Zipper Merger who can fix all these zippers! Also, and I don't wanna speak out of turn here, but has anyone ever tried putting a zipper on a car? Like as an accent piece?
	4:50pm Juli: Trying to become a seamstress of sorts Yet I am taking a zipper to a professional yea
	4:50pm Juli: Haha love those
	4:50pm Jeff Moore: @fred: or were you talking about a car person who wants to terrorize bike people?
	4:50pm Seamus from Saginaw: my fav hoodie doesn't have zippers! i'm good to go!
	4:51pm Dave In Leicester: Wow this Arooj Aftab is a real beauty
	4:51pm mndave: @fred: Completely baffling. Every pedestrian and cyclist your coworker sees is NOT a car in their way, so praise and adulation should be their only reaction
	4:51pm Seamus from Saginaw: Jeff Moore I think frd meant motorists
	4:51pm fred: @Will in Norman: Lot of virtue signaling here. Wealthy people drive from suburbs then bike in the city, and are total assholes there
	4:52pm Juli: Must du dishes Peace till later All I wanna do is lay down to this tho
	4:52pm faraz: Awesome by Arooj Aftab.
	4:53pm HyperDose: Don't forget the trash!
	4:53pm Rob Kopp: what a beautiful song
	4:53pm That Goddam Todd: Sharing with my sister. Adding to my Spotify. I never get sh*t for work done when I listen to your show
	4:53pm fred: @Jeff Moore: Bike people are generally assholes in Paris. It's getting worse
	4:53pm Seamus from Saginaw: right Rob Kopp. so good :)
	4:54pm djsheilab: Haha....That's a good thing, I think? @That Goddam Todd
	4:54pm Juli: Cindy-relly cindy-relly Nah I enjoy cleaning...you get to see all your things and feng shui and s u c h
	4:55pm Juli: FMU helps.
	4:55pm djsheilab: I'm going straight to Pioneer Works after my show to see Arooj Aftab perform live. I shall report back!
	4:55pm SnackGirl in BK: fred - this all stinks...i've never been to Paris but want to visit soon and that's a good tip for a walker like me! This music is gorgeous
	4:55pm Juli: Heart Eyes!
	4:55pm Seamus from Saginaw: Rob talk about beautiful. This is awesome <3
	4:56pm P-90: Wear. a. mask.
	4:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: @fred - I thought I read recently that the Paris mayor has slowed the traffic speed limit to 30 km/h (19mph).
	4:56pm djsheilab: P-90—That's the plan!
	4:56pm Rob Kopp: @Seamus: These last 2 songs are fantastic indeed
	4:57pm Seamus from Saginaw: So so good
	4:57pm Juli: Paris is a seashell shaped dream.
	4:58pm Juli: & they love NYC.
	4:58pm Seamus from Saginaw: Estonia has bonkers great music :)
	4:58pm fred: I was told it's the same in the Netherlands, in that bikers feel superior. Difference in Paris is that living there is so expensive that most non-rich people work there but don't live there. So bikes are for rich people who live there, and they pull rank
	4:58pm DjLorraine: Arooj Aftab! Mask up, i find Halyard brand easy to breath in and there is a fog strip inside for glasses wearers
	4:58pm Dave In Leicester: Don’t know how anyone could work with this show as background, I get so absorbed and enjoy a glass of wine with it, it is evening here tho
	4:59pm Seamus from Saginaw: their early 2000's shoegaze scene was sweet
	4:59pm SnackGirl in BK: Dave - yeah I am struggling right now focusing on homework as it just isn't as fun!
	4:59pm Juli: I am having a hard time leaving the floor yeas lol
	5:00pm Will in Norman: i listen to this show while working. keeps my mind from wandering too much, podcasts help me in the same way
	5:01pm love2laf: I totally give up doing anything once Sheila's on the air. Just listen and revel in the lush music, and fascinating chat on the radio, and here :)
	5:01pm Juli: Lol kk I will stand up to dance
	5:01pm Seamus from Saginaw: Snacks keep pushing one problem at a time :) you're doing awesome!
	5:02pm djsheilab: Music to my ears, friends! I love hearing how you each listen to the show.
	5:02pm D Rok: This track is HOT!
	5:03pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: @jersey duckets But HOW are you supposed to zipper merge if nobody else is zipper merging? If Sheila goes to the front of one lane and politely inserts herself, that's a sign to other motorists that they can do the same. Zipper merging ensues -- problem solved.
	5:03pm Seamus from Saginaw: i have a good feeling about this last hour!
	5:04pm Seamus from Saginaw: djsheilab I bop my head a lot
	5:05pm SnackGirl in BK: ABBA!!!
	5:05pm Seamus from Saginaw: sweet
	5:06pm D Rok: Leave it to djsheilab to instigate my first listen to the new ABBA! I wouldn't want it any other way.
	5:06pm SnackGirl in BK: Oh yeah homework is due Wednesday there is plenty of time for ABBA! Plus I should do my WFMU homework first...
	5:06pm Asheville Jon: YES!!!!!! NEW ABBA!!!!! omg, yesterday's announcements and videos totally made my year
	5:08pm Seamus from Saginaw: hi, Asheville Jon. it's pretty great <3
	5:08pm Andrea Egert: Sheila B., happy Friday and please know that I cherish this long-awaited ABBA moment ALWAYS!!!!<3
	5:08pm SnackGirl in BK: when the antibiotics and ABBA hit I am running in the face
	5:09pm Micheal: So glad to be hearing this new ABBA on Sophisticated Boom Boom!
	5:09pm HyperDose: That floored me
	5:09pm Bimbus Bambus: Is this maybe the longest gap between releases...ever??
	5:09pm morphe': Simon an I were out all day .. Abba news .. concert with Avatars...?? https://www.theguardian.com/music/2021/sep/02/abba-reunite-for-voyage-first-new-album-in-40-years
	5:09pm Seamus from Saginaw: hi, Andrea Egert. It's really good
	5:10pm Jett: We love ABBA! Thank You For The Music!
	5:10pm Bimbus Bambus: Even the Beatles only waited 35 years.
	5:10pm Vanessa Tara: i do, i do, i do, i do, i do ...
	5:10pm Bimbus Bambus: 25...
	5:10pm Seamus from Saginaw: i'm 42 I can't express how much I love ABBA
	5:10pm Yooper: I love it when truckers stop the non zipper mergers by taking up two lanes
	5:11pm Andrea Egert: Hey Seamus!! Wasn't that amazing?!!!
	5:11pm Jett: @DjSheilaB I hear ya! on ABBA❤️
	5:12pm SnackGirl in BK: ABBA worth the wait...any wait <3
	5:12pm Seamus from Saginaw: I had a roommate when I was 19 that was an ABBA junkie. I got along with him very well :)
	5:13pm HyperDose: I just want to be in at least one ABBA flash mob before I check out
	5:14pm Seamus from Saginaw: an evening out with Sheila and Gaylord sounds so fun!
	5:14pm Gaylord Fields: @Bimbus Bambus: Linda Perhacs had a 44-year gap between her first and second albums.
	5:15pm djsheilab: HyperDose—Me too please!
	5:15pm djsheilab: Gaylord Fields—Hello to my partner for the evening!
	5:15pm Seamus from Saginaw: hi, Gaylord!
	5:16pm Gaylord Fields: See you soon, Sheila! Hello, Seamus!
	5:17pm michael z: Love this song Sheila. What great guitar work.
	5:17pm Jeff Moore: @Bob: The situation I often see, the particularly infuriating one, is where the majority of motorists have seen the signs saying (or just know) that an exit is coming for which one needs to be in the far right lane, and they conduct an orderly merge into that lane well before getting to that exit. Most of the cars needing to make that exit work their way into that exit lane a half-mile or more before the actual exit leaves the highway. Because of the increased volume of traffic in that lane (because everybody has already merged into it), that lane often ends up moving more slowly than the express lanes to its left. But... pre-merged into that lane is where all the sensible, considerate, empathetic, moral drivers are. Then some SOCIOPATHS whiz past the slower lane of cars pre-merged and ready to take the exit, and push their way into the already-formed exit queue right up front - not only being unconscionably rude, but slowing the pre-merged line down by injecting chaos into what was an orderly queue.
	5:17pm Andrew_in_WI: Sounds like Trouble... if you know what I mean.
	5:17pm fred: I'm 50 and I'd much rather see Zelma Stone in a small venue than pay 100+ to see a video of Abba in a stadium
	5:18pm Seamus from Saginaw: this has been the best friday I've had in ages. Much much love Sheila
	5:18pm Michael 98145: cute cover art
	5:18pm Seamus from Saginaw: have a blast tonight!
	5:19pm morphe': As Gerry of Miami wrote on W&B or .."never liked ABBA in my time" [Punk-Kill RockStars-Disco Sucks) but can appreciate some tunes now ...
	5:20pm Bimbus Bambus: Just occurred to me the Lavender Country album is definitely 40+ years in between as well.
	5:20pm Juli: Yay my bf wanted some quiet chill time so told me not to do the dishes rn basically lol
	5:21pm Juli: It could have been me singing David Bowie obnoxiously...
	5:21pm Juli: THIS is amazing
	5:21pm Beep Boop: Japonica, you say?
	5:21pm Seamus from Saginaw: morphe, even as a dumb kid listening to the Misfits and Sex Pistols I liked disco. No shame in that <3
	5:22pm Seamus from Saginaw: heck PIL embraced disco lol
	5:23pm Jeff Moore: ...and aside from the mischievous merge anthill-stirring: absolutely lovely show as always, and this set is dreamy!
	5:24pm Seamus from Saginaw: Joy Division even had disco-like beats
	5:24pm Juli: Disco s cute
	5:25pm Seamus from Saginaw: Juli. I'm cute :)
	5:25pm Will in Norman: the 'disco sucks' movement had racist & homophobic undertones to it (tho not always intentional)
	5:26pm Seamus from Saginaw: Will in Norman yup.
	5:27pm Juli: Most ppl are Seamus But you are special, too. lols
	5:27pm Seamus from Saginaw: Juli thanks. I am hot lol
	5:27pm Avrilinmay: à propos of bullying (and perhaps even virtue signalling), let's take it down a notch with the "ExPlAiNinG" to a grown human how to drive, guys, maybe. yeah? Let's remember that SOMEONE is actually making your and our existence literally better putting all of their heart and soul into this show, every week... in comparison with projecting some minor traffic road issues (yes, that might be annoying when they happen, we all agree with you, but ... let's regain some perspective shall we ? ) Peace.
	5:28pm Juli: Good for you Seamus Good for you~!
	5:28pm morphe': From Seamus ... .. yes ... that was my point .. gave away my Stones and JAirplane and .... ???? in the late 70's in the spirit of Kill rock Stars .. no regrets ..but now at the age of 60 I can now hear new nuances to things I disliked so I am more open/less harsh to some 70-80 Disco-ish sounds I shied from .. please - No Eagles..... nor Doobie Brothers ...
	5:29pm Seamus from Saginaw: sheesh, this side convo is heated lol
	5:29pm Jeff Moore: @Will in Norman: for sure. I was way too inattentive to realize that at the time, but in retrospect - really pretty gross.
	5:31pm Seamus from Saginaw: morphe no Eagles yes. I can take a Doobie Brothers song if I must but, NO EAGLES lol
	5:31pm fm Mike: Hi Hi Allll
	5:32pm Juli: I can handle most things sarcastically...most things.
	5:32pm fred: @Will in Norman: I now realize the underlying hate there. I still dislike disco (hate was and remains too strong a word). So I'm a Nazi?
	5:32pm Seamus from Saginaw: Hotel California kills my soul lol
	5:32pm Seamus from Saginaw: Hi, fm Mike!
	5:33pm headcleaner: This song just keeps coming back at me
	5:33pm Will in Norman: i'm not saying everyone who dislikes disco is racist/homophobic by default. just that it did motivate some people's attitudes against it back in the 70s
	5:33pm djsheilab: Avrilinmay—You're lovely, thank you. I'm quite enjoying the fiery convo!
	5:34pm Seamus from Saginaw: fred, we're all friends here. keep it cool <3
	5:34pm michael z: Who is Justine Forever? Such a cool song. Sheila is encyclopedic. .
	5:35pm Seamus from Saginaw: love you fred
	5:35pm SnackGirl in BK: Re: Bandcamp day, if anyone likes punk or guitar rock in any genre, I'd check out my friends here. Lots of soggy records yesterday from them too according to Twitter: explodinginsoundrecords.bandcamp.com
	5:35pm Juli: Lol huh?
	5:36pm Bimbus Bambus: @Will Yeah, it was more the aligning oneself with the Disco Sucks movement/dog whistle that was the tell
	5:36pm Juli: Ty SG
	5:36pm Avrilinmay: a cover (I have never heard of) of one my all-time favourite french songs! anyone who would like to discover the original, Trouble's French-centric show was great (around the week before Bastille day)
	5:37pm morphe': Will in Nornman - no racism or phobia for me .. at the time of that for me . I was down with Brother D and the Collective Effort and Grandmaster and .. it was the fame and fashion and $$$$ that I opposed .. Spent the late 70s early '80s at the Mudd Club, TR3 and the Pyramid . and worked at St Marks Bookshop '82-86 = . David Wojnarowicz ..the Boy Bar .. etc ..we hated the fame searchers and the $$$ seekers

	5:58pm Jason from Houston: ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎
	5:58pm Kpx: Time is an illusion, the past present and future is a constant at the same time. Anything that exists is constantly aging and changing, especially for living organisms that have the shortest existence of all. However the trade off there is the greatest gift of all; Awareness!, to be able to perceiving and know of existence and the wonders of it. When one thinks about the improbable astronomical odds of existing as a living higher intelligent functioning being, the question of aging should not even be of a concern, rather that the quality of your existence is. We all are the same age at different times, or just all having a life experience at different junctures in our own time that is unique to ourselves. Just knowing that we are alive to have them at all stages during our lives is a blessing in itself.
	5:58pm Michael 98145: yes

	6:05pm fred: @Sheila: I hope you can picture a guy wearing a perfecto jacket carrying a pair of cowboy boots to a cobbler's shop in a Sophisticated Boom Boom tote bag. Because there are no pictures, though it happened several times, and will happen next week
	6:35pm Avrilinmay: @fred : so sorry to have missed your reply. My figurative (attention) plate was full between listening, catching up with the comments from earlier in the show -since I arrived late- and real life stuff always getting in the way (AArrgh) But yes, I completely hear you! (and were I living where you are -which has always been my aim but that's another story for another day :D - I would have pretty much the same habits). But I am honestly bummed to hear about the tensions with cyclists (although I get where you are coming from). I hope there will be ways to resolve them asap. p.s. Just in case - I am always afraid of misunderstandings on internet chats- I should point out that none of what I said earlier was directed your way! :p
