Listener comments!
	🎙 12:03am Scott67: G'day Jonathan & Obscure Adults! 🌏☀️🍻😎🤙💨🍺🌻
	12:03am Blissland: g'day ... midnight here
	12:03am Bobby: I am in here
	12:04am Bobby: at midnight
	🎙 12:05am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @12:03 Just gone 4pm Monday arvo here.
	12:05am Blissland: Slightly more lavender than Suzy Hotrod's hot pink
	🎙 12:07am Scott67: If ya here coel? I googled Yard Owl Brewery mate. Looks yummy, but no sign of a distributor here. If ya fangin' for a beer now, catch cobber! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	🎙 12:09am Jherweg: Hey everyone !
	12:09am Blissland: Greetings Jonathan
	12:13am JBo: Hi Jonny! All ears here in JT
	12:14am Richy4619: ░░░░▒▒▓▓▓▓██████▓▓▓▓▒▒▒▒▒░░░░░
	🎙 12:15am Jherweg: Good , knowing you’re listening has a calming effect JenBo:)
	12:15am coelacanth∅: yeah Scott that was directed toward Will, as i think his location is near mine somewhat. silly nonconformist me shoulda used the chat bubble feature! ...it's local, and small (2-person operation), but even the styles that i usually can't stand (ie pale ales, sours, fruity brews...) i've enjoyed from that one. (last i knew they didn't make any hearty stouts or porters though. strange, with his irish/english background)
	🎙 12:17am Scott67: You rebel you!🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	12:18am Blissland: Some of the best stouts we can get here are Samuel Smith, but the cost has become prohibitive. Ironically though, the excellent chocolate stout brewed in brooklyn is just as costly.
	🎙 12:19am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:15 TRASH CULT now has it's own TRASH BEER. Brewed locally by a small setup who grow their own Barley.
	12:21am Blissland: now we're cookin
	12:22am coelacanth∅: heh...and i just ate a minty chocolate thing, so i think a beer is not gonna taste good now! a have some lemon ...schnapps? (full-strength lemon liquor, whatever it's called) also from a local distillery. think i'll have a nightcap. and Jonathan i changed my avatar to this beautiful image because it might be more calming than a lowrider karmen ghia. -except for the cathartic aspect, if you're driving one!
	12:23am northguineahills: ↳ Scott67 @12:19 i was hoping the barley would be gently used, being, trash beer, you know...
	🎙 12:25am Scott67: This is what I used to drink at parties & BBQ's. strait from a 750ml bottle. australianbeerposters.com.au...
	12:25am Blissland: this makes me want to smoke some weed too.
	12:26am coelacanth∅: Blisshard i loved Smith's oatmeal stout and taddy porter at one time. lighter than my preference but very good. but expensive,ya. and the heavenly tasting brooklyn chocolate stout destroys me! i get a severe headache by 1/2way into the 2nd one. that's the case with all of their brews i've had.
	🎙 12:26am Scott67: ↳ northguineahills @12:23 It get heavily used once in the TRASH CULT Beer fridge mate! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	12:27am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:26 Those are great brews, and the Samuel Smith Imperial Stout.
	🎙 12:27am Aitch: Enjoying the sounds
	12:27am northguineahills: ↳ Scott67 @12:26 trash beer is what i used to call all of the orphan beers left over from a party (which i may or may not still drink,)....
	12:28am coelacanth∅: oh right, imperial stout too. one was heavier (which i like) than the other but now i don't remember which
	🎙 12:28am Aitch: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:22 oh deer
	🎙 12:29am Scott67: ↳ northguineahills @12:27 I like your style mate!🍺
	12:29am coelacanth∅: ↳ Aitch @12:28 indeed!
	12:30am Blissland: I think the imperial stout is a little heavier than the oatmeal stout. There was a scotch ale that I used to like very much too.
	12:30am wenzo (listener #143834): 👍
	🎙 12:30am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:22 Beer can follow mint mate! Get it in ya! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	12:30am coelacanth∅: (i should've grabbed one of those deer puns off the shelf there but i wasn't thinking)
	12:31am Blissland: But the Brooklyn is richer than both of those. But you haven't had seriously powerful beer until you tried Delerium Tremens.
	🎙 12:31am Scott67: ↳ Song: "Fehn" by "Kobynat Robotron" This track is thick & smoky. Like my stouts!
	12:31am Blissland: There's a reason they put a pink elephant on the label.
	12:33am Blissland: that was trippy.
	12:36am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Fehn" by "Kobynat Robotron" I love this. I love stout, also, but I'm tired of the high alcohol content of American craft stouts, and the overbearing heavy flavor that they usually have, like "chocolate " stouts. If there were a nice smooth American stout around 4%, I'd buy it, but I've never found one. So I'm happy with a nice Guinness or Murphy's.
	12:39am coelacanth∅: Scott i'm already sipping the lemony liquor. Cheers! Blisshard i've had that. liked it, didn't love it. -but the alcohol content doesn't bother me one way or the other. i can handle a lot but don't feel like i want a lot! that's not what killed me with the brooklyn brews. ...some kind of allergic reaction, i'd say.
	12:39am Blissland: ↳ McGroovey @12:36 The Samuel Smiths are less heavy, but have become very expensive. I used to like the "draught" cans of Murphy's.
	🎙 12:39am Scott67: 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
	🎙 12:39am Aitch: Coopers Stout at a nice 6.8% my fave but probably not a lot of that getting exported
	12:40am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:39 oh yeah, I definitely don't want Delerium Tremens every time I have a beer either.
	12:40am coelacanth∅: McGroovey, murphy's is my go-to
	12:40am TroyD8: Thanks for the Television!
	🎙 12:40am Scott67: ↳ Aitch @12:39 Nice Aitch!🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	12:40am diciassette: Hello, and thanks in advance for the Television tribute. I got to see Tom Verlaine play a few years ago.
	12:41am diciassette: ↳ TroyD8 @12:40 You beat me to it! That's what I get for trying to be too verbose.
	12:41am Blissland: ↳ Song: "Friction" by "Television" Jonathan thank you for that, and your obituary.
	🎙 12:41am Scott67: ↳ McGroovey @12:36 Maybe try a Dark Ale mate?🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	12:41am Marc M: Hey Jonathan- great show so far tonight!
	12:42am diciassette: Ahoy Scott! I have, in my fridge, a can of beer called "Vegas as Fuck"
	🎙 12:43am Aitch: ↳ Scott67 @12:40 6.3%. Off the turps myself, so enough of this evil banter whilst I collect more tea
	12:43am Blissland: One of so many great records to come out of new york in the '70s
	12:43am coelacanth∅: hey dici! i don't know why but i never saw the tele back in the day; but i did see them after the reunion in the 90s. i won tickets calling the station (wfmu) with the answer to some trivia. i brought a friend that i thought would Love it and she said it didn't do anything for her. go figure.
	🎙 12:44am Scott67: ↳ diciassette @12:42 Dici! Awesome as fuck mate!🎲🎰 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	12:45am TroyD8: ↳ diciassette @12:40 That’s awesome!
	🎙 12:45am Scott67: ↳ Aitch @12:43 Soz mate! I guessed as much! Heal well fella! 😎🤙💨🫖🌿
	12:45am coelacanth∅: Aitch -today was a 2-cupper! i love my tea.
	12:47am coelacanth∅: and this song
	🎙 12:48am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:45 You'd be a light weight in England mate!
	🎙 12:49am Scott67: The Poms cal Tea O' in the middle of a battle!
	🎙 12:49am Scott67: call*
	12:50am Blissland: make tea not war
	12:50am coelacanth∅: ha! -with the tea, maybe. yes. okay i'm a lightweight! even 2 cups keeps me buzzing until 6am! but the whiskey i got 'em beat!
	12:51am Blissland: Whisky may be even more controversial than beer.
	12:51am coelacanth∅: but then i can drink 5 shots of espresso with some heavy cream and be pretty okay
	12:53am northguineahills: ight, gonna try to leave, thanks Jonathan!
	12:53am Blissland: ↳ northguineahills @12:53 pleasant dreams
	12:55am Blissland: The best blended whisky I've tasted was Johnny Walker blue label, but the best whisky I've had was some single malt scotch.
	12:55am coelacanth∅: lyons green box (my favorite) gives me more energy than i could possibly need. taylor's "scottish breakfast" (my 2nd favorite) does the same. but i like them for the flavour. i wish they didn't buzz me so much. but today i had darjeeling tea, and i'm not flying. coffee does less still.
	🎙 12:55am Scott67: ↳ northguineahills @12:53 Sweet ones NGH 🌻
	12:55am northguineahills: ↳ Scott67 @12:55 merci!
	12:56am coelacanth∅: tchau ngh Blissland i am NOT a scotch drinker!
	12:56am Blissland: Me neither, I usually stick to beer.
	🎙 12:56am Scott67: Shhh! Aitch is reading this!🥛🧃🫖
	12:58am coelacanth∅: oh i like jameson! - and some bourbons
	12:58am coelacanth∅: haha Scott Yes, of course you know i mean jameson brand OAT MILK of course
	🎙 12:59am Aitch: love it but I canny 'ave it, not even a wee dram
	🎙 1:00am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:58 That's some soft whisky shit mate!
	1:01am coelacanth∅: there are plenty of other things to enjoy that are actually good for you, after all. and we want you around a while Aitch.
	🎙 1:02am Scott67: I like oats! Oats are good for you!
	1:03am Blissland: There are oats in oatmeal stout.
	🎙 1:03am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @1:03 Ya bastard!🤣😂😉
	1:04am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @1:03 yeah
	1:04am coelacanth∅: Scott @1 - jameson?
	🎙 1:06am Ike: Did someone say oats? I'm baking granola right now!
	1:06am wenzo (listener #143834): Is that Theo e with Robert Mitchum? Or am I thinking of some other film
	🎙 1:07am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:04 As Irish Irish Whisky goes, it's a bit bland for me mate. Bushmills is the longest running Distillery in Ireland. They make a tasty beverage!
	1:07am wenzo (listener #143834): *the one
	1:08am Hubig Pie: Got here just in time for the hard left turn
	🎙 1:08am Scott67: ↳ Hubig Pie @1:08 Remember to indicate mate!
	1:09am Blissland: Doesn't seem like a hard turn
	🎙 1:09am Jherweg: Yes Robert Mitchum indeed .
	1:10am TroyD8: ↳ Song: "Blanche" by "Model Alpha" Perfect!
	1:11am Hubig Pie: ↳ Scott67 @1:08 The politeness center implores you to always use your blinker
	1:11am Blissland: heh
	1:11am coelacanth∅: Scott i don't care for bushmills except the blackbush which is okay. is bland the new smooth?! anyway i'd rather support the true irish folk (even if their religion is whack!) not the english invaders who came in and started the bushmills distillery!
	1:13am coelacanth∅: (and it's not like jameson is less potent. it just tastes better.)
	1:14am Blissland: I don't know of a better blended whisky than Johnny Walker blue label.
	1:14am wenzo (listener #143834): I saw that probably 15+ years ago… can’t remember anything about it but I remember thinking it was good
	🎙 1:14am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:11 You know your history mate! I'm biased cos I lived an easy hitch up the road from it for 9 months. Free tours & free samples did it to me. & yes, fuck all religion, without fear or favour.
	1:15am Jayna: Listening from LA, love your musical vibes tonight Jonny!
	🎙 1:18am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:13 My Scottish heritage must have me tuned to the bight of Scotch Whisky mate.
	1:19am coelacanth∅: Scott i once asked a guy in the liquor store here which one he preferred. he got notably anxious! he stammered well they're both good whiskies. i said you must prefer one, they're quite different from each-other. he took a deep breath, looked at me and i guess decided it was okay to say "well it depends if you're catholic or protestant".
	🎙 1:20am Scott67: Balantine & Dimple are some user friendly Blended Scotch.
	🎙 1:20am Aitch: ...nice stinky Islay malts....
	1:21am Robm: ↳ Scott67 @1:20 Johnny walker red
	1:22am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:19 Where did that happen?
	1:23am Blissland: I don't know what single malt I had but it was smoky and delcious.
	1:23am coelacanth∅: Blissland i think blue label is the only johnny walker i've never tried. but i'll drink recycled beer before drinking any of the others! or any other blended scotch whiskies. (dewers is even worse!) but to be fair, i despise single malt scotch as well. doesn't matter if it's $800/bottle. it's disgusting!
	1:24am wenzo (listener #143834): Anybody ever try rubbing alcohol? It’s got alcohol right in the name. Gotta be good, right?
	1:24am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @1:22 upstate(ish) new york
	1:25am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:23 I've tried all the Johnny Walkers and the blue is the only one worth anything. I don't know if I've ever had Canadian whisky, unless Chivas Regal is Canadian.
	🎙 1:25am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:19 Yeah! I worked in kitchens while there. The Micks sat in one spot & the Prodies in another. I sat with the Micks unintentionally, cos they were in my kitchen area, & they had the scones! They eventually made me aware of the dogma separation, & asked; "what are you"? I said, I'm Australian.
	1:25am coelacanth∅: wenzo don't be a toad!
	1:25am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:24 Oh me too, I'm in the butt end of ulster county now. Wishing I could be back in sawkill.
	🎙 1:25am Scott67: ↳ Robm @1:21 Not a fan mate.
	1:26am wenzo (listener #143834): 😂
	🎙 1:26am Scott67: ↳ Aitch @1:20 Spot on mate!
	1:26am Blissland: The red and the black are harsh.
	1:27am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @1:25 What did they make of that?
	1:28am coelacanth∅: others have said that about the blue. i still will likely never try it -or maybe a sip of someone's glass. especially as i rarely drink at all now. (relatively)
	1:28am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:28 Yeah it's too costly.
	1:28am Hubig Pie: I enjoyed very much a bottle of single malt Oban during a work stay in St Louis. But Scotch is not found in me liquor locker . I'm a gin man
	🎙 1:28am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @1:27 They laughed! Until I also added & an un-christened lifelong Atheist.
	1:29am coelacanth∅: ha, Scott @125 you were lucky to be an ozzy in that moment!
	1:29am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @1:28 lol oh boy
	1:29am Blissland: wacky world
	1:30am greenlight: good morning. tuning in. RIP Tom Verlaine
	1:30am coelacanth∅: ↳ Scott67 @1:28 D'oh!
	1:31am Blissland: Isn't it all too much to keep track of?
	1:31am coelacanth∅: Hubig i like gin now & then. saphire, or ten
	🎙 1:31am Scott67: ↳ Hubig Pie @1:28 I had a tasting at the Oban Distillery mate. My initiation to a peaty single malt, I hated it! But that was over 30 years ago. Now I'm a convert, just can't afford any decent single malts.
	1:31am Blissland: ↳ greenlight @1:30 Yes we're mourning and celebrating Tom's work.
	1:33am Blissland: OCD?
	🎙 1:33am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:30 They got over it quick, when I appeared without fear or shame. The whole time I hitched around Ireland, I felt like an adult in a country of kids.
	1:33am coelacanth∅: Blissland i'm not sure which direction is the butt but this store's in new paltz. i'm not exactly in new paltz, but close.
	1:34am coelacanth∅: hey greenlight!
	1:34am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:33 What store? The butt end is ellenville.
	1:36am greenlight: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:34 hey coelacanth∅!
	1:36am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:33 Sorry, don't mean to be nosy. I might check out snug harbor again at some point.
	1:37am Blissland: I haven't been anywhere since before covid started.
	1:38am coelacanth∅: ah, ellenville. 'used to be some good meth labs over there! (actually i don't know if they were good!) my cousins lived there when i was little but they sold the land decades ago. i know a few people over the ridge. the store i don't know the name! it's the one near the post office.
	1:38am Hubig Pie: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:31 Me pop's always told me to stick with the bottom shelf brands cuz gin isn't high brow swill
	1:38am greenlight: ↳ Blissland @1:31 seen that alright
	1:39am Blissland: I haven't been to ellenville either at night since I was forced to leave kingston 7 years ago. It's still white trash far as I can tell. Nothing but a shop-rite and a wal-mart. Good place to move if you're ready to die.
	1:40am Hubig Pie: ↳ Song: "Alleyway Tango" by ":nepaal" This is some good jammer
	1:41am Blissland: ↳ Hubig Pie @1:40 Yes.
	1:41am greenlight: ↳ Scott67 @1:31 Hey Scott67 my English is not that good. What expression hitched around Ireland means? why did you feel like an adult in a country of kids?, hehe.
	1:42am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:38 Is it a liquor store? Sorry I missed the part of that thread about the store.
	1:43am Richy4619: ↳ Blissland @1:39 I was forced to leave Kingston some 26 years ago, Blissland if' n means anything and you're funny haha
	1:44am coelacanth∅: snugs is the only pub i go to any more, but it's been a month or 2 now. Hubig i'm fairly ignorant. i don't doubt what he said; and my father drank store-brand gin. but i like the herbal essence of the saphire; and the ten i grew to like after confiscating 6 bottle of it from someone who had to stop drinking.
	1:45am Blissland: I just realized one of the cool things about this, like back in the old days we can all be listening to the same thing, but it's not necessary to interrupt the sound to communicate with words.
	🎙 1:46am Scott67: ↳ greenlight @1:41 Hitchhiking or auto stop mate.😎👍🚗
	1:47am Blissland: ↳ Richy4619 @1:43 What do you mean, funny??? just kidding. I moved to the top of hallihan hill in '95. I was forced to leave in 2015 when the owner died, She left the property to her son in montana who wanted to immediately liquidate. It was 28 acres to myself. Hard getting used to neighbors.
	1:48am greenlight: ↳ Scott67 @1:46 thought so.. was not sure.... so you hitchhiked around IRL? nice. I used to live there for 15 years so I been all over the place, I was just wondering why you felt like an adult in coutnry of kids :D, hahaha
	1:49am coelacanth∅: ↳ Scott67 @1:33 2 excerpts from a Sinead O'Connor song,"famine": "See we're like a child that's been battered Has to drive itself out of it's head because it's frightened ... I see the Irish As a race like a child That got itself bashed in the face..."
	1:50am Blissland: ↳ Richy4619 @1:43 Did something similar happen to you?
	1:51am Hubig Pie: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:44 Tanqueray and Sapphire definitely bring more flavor and deliver more alcoholic punch. I ignored my father's advice and always keep a bottle of one or the other in the potent potable cabinet
	🎙 1:52am Scott67: ↳ greenlight @1:48 & in the early 90's Ireland was under the tyranny of Church running the State. So people to me seemed childlike in their fearful & subservient ways. Only getting loose & free when drunk.
	1:52am Max Dangerman: Loving the show here in Seattle. Thanks!
	🎙 1:52am Scott67: ↳ greenlight @1:48 I hitched around France too mate.
	1:53am Richy4619: ↳ Blissland @1:50 yeah. IBM left. Took the jobs away so we split.
	1:53am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @1:52 It's been getting more like that here in the states for a while.
	🎙 1:53am Aitch: ↳ Scott67 @1:52 Did they ever find any of the bodies?
	🎙 1:53am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:49 I tear up pictures of the pope to that song mate!
	1:53am Hubig Pie: That :nepaal was a banger
	1:53am Blissland: ↳ Richy4619 @1:53 Oh, yeah that was a while ago. Something new is supposedly moving there. Some business.
	1:54am Blissland: Enterprise Drive
	🎙 1:54am Aitch: ↳ Scott67 @1:52 but they're always drunk? (or asleep)
	🎙 1:55am Scott67: ↳ Aitch @1:53 I ate them mate!🍷🍴🥖
	1:55am Max Dangerman: ↳ Hubig Pie @1:53 Yes! The first I'd heard them
	1:55am coelacanth∅: Scott, right down to the silly dancing -the result of being forbidden to dance at all; so they invented a way to dance so from the waist-up they don't look like they're dancing.
	1:55am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @1:53 truth
	1:56am Blissland: I still prefer Elvis Costello to Elvis Presley.
	🎙 1:56am Scott67: ↳ Aitch @1:54 Often! Especially on good friday, when you couldn't even buy a wine with you meal in a fucken restaurant!
	1:57am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:55 Subservience is the fundamental problem. Being a sheep.
	🎙 1:58am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @1:53 Yep! Scary shit mate! The rise of the christian right is the Fascist vanguard seeking to plague our Planet once more.
	1:59am greenlight: ↳ Scott67 @1:52 oh I see what you referred to. yes, you are right. up till late 90ties big catholic presence in all matters of everyday life. true. I stayed there from 2000 to 2015. Loved it. It is my second home. Can´t believe how it changed since then. I am still going there often for a visits.
	1:59am Blissland: On balance, it's hard to argue that Christianity has been worth the trouble.
	2:02am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @1:58 Don't get me started. But yeah it's scary. Not so much for younger folks since they don't know any better. But that's part of the problem too.
	2:03am Blissland: like Can
	🎙 2:03am Scott67: ↳ greenlight @1:59 So much for the better now mate! May they free from the shackles of shame forever! Marriage Equality, A Gay Leader..... When I was there the Government was forbidding a 14 year old Rape Survivor from traveling with her Parents to UK for a Abortion. I will never forget my rage!
	2:04am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:03 They are doing the same thing here now.
	2:04am coelacanth∅: Scott @203 well now a significant % of the us has taken that roll.
	2:04am Blissland: We are going high speed in reverse.
	🎙 2:05am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:04 Yep! Land of the FREE indeed mate! Fucked beyond belief to us in the Free thinking World.
	2:05am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @2:04 yeh we are
	2:06am Blissland: JONATHAN!!!!!!!
	2:07am Hubig Pie: Speed and cheap beer was a brilliant description. Check out Marissa Nader's cover of Solitude on last year's Sacred Bones Sabbath tribute
	2:07am Blissland: Scary now. Covid didn't help either.
	2:08am Hubig Pie: Nadler's goddamit
	2:08am Blissland: Bad Trips, that makes sense.
	🎙 2:08am Scott67: Conservatism is a commerce, too many will lose billions on if we live in a truly just World. So they will kill to preserve the system.
	2:09am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:08 Sure, conservatism is one thing, fascism and idiocracy are other things.
	2:10am greenlight: ↳ Scott67 @2:03 yeap, exactly, abortion was illegal up till recently. Anyone who decided (of had to) for abortion had to apply for it in UK.
	🎙 2:10am Scott67: ↳ Scott67 @2:08 Even if they kill the Planet!🌏
	🎙 2:11am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:09 Not if you are in the media mate.
	2:11am Blissland: I believe the Dobbs decision if that's what it was, is the first time in u.s. history that rights were legally taken away from more than half the population, by the highest court.
	2:12am wenzo (listener #143834): Gonna try & catch some zzzs, thanks JH
	2:12am Blissland: I have no trustworthy source of news anymore. The last outlet I had on the cable that was any good was russia today. Ironically enough.
	2:13am Hubig Pie: Jah. Love the show. G'night
	2:13am Blissland: But they had people like Chris Hedges, Glen Greenwald, Noam Chomsky.
	2:13am Blissland: ↳ Hubig Pie @2:13 pleasant dreams.
	2:17am Richy4619: ↳ Blissland @2:13 - - - [{-_-}] - - -ZZZ zzz
	2:18am Blissland: ↳ Richy4619 @2:17 I'm off that.
	🎙 2:25am Ike: Sounds great, JH!
	2:29am Hi from Holland: Aloha! That was a nice kitty cat...
	🎙 2:30am Scott67: Get that cat outa here!
	2:30am Blissland: Hi Hi from Holland
	2:31am Hi from Holland: 👋
	2:33am Blissland: I must have that record.
	🎙 2:34am Ike: ↳ Blissland @2:12 Definitely not a fan of RT here. Putin is a master of using the Russian Orthodox church for totalitarian purposes and pushes anti-LGBTQ propaganda heavily. Didn't RT also push Tulsi Gabbard a lot? Did you know she belongs to a bizarre cult called Science of Identity that worships a white surfer dude who declared himself a guru? Like him, she is viciously Islamophobic and is now returning to her anti-LGBTQ roots.
	🎙 2:35am Scott67: Putin is the new Hitler.
	2:36am Blissland: ↳ Ike @2:34 I didn't know that about Tulsi Gabbard, but I am not a fan of putin, nor of anyone who promotes bigotry of any kind.
	2:37am Blissland: I agree with Linda Ronstadt when she supposedly said that t***p is our hitler. Wow it's even easier to type hitler's name.
	🎙 2:39am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:37 He's a little Mussolini mate! A true Fascist, but a pathetic narcissistic coward.
	2:39am Blissland: ↳ Ike @2:34 Is that why she left the democratic party?
	2:40am greenlight: that d'voxx track was cool
	🎙 2:40am Scott67: Putin is a Dictator of a captive audience.
	2:40am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:39 Scott yeah, he always reminded me of a retarded, even more narcissistic version of mussolini. Will I be banned for saying the R word?
	2:41am Blissland: He's what we commonly call a dipshit.
	🎙 2:41am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:40 Not in it's Dictionary sense relating to a dictator mate.
	🎙 2:43am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:41 Far more divisive & dangerous than a dipshit mate. Dismissing him as such made him your President.
	🎙 2:43am Ike: ↳ Blissland @2:39 From what I understand, yes. She may have only joined it in the first place because it's so dominant in Hawaii, and the dingbats in charge did not do enough vetting of her and her weird parents and her creepy cult. Her dad is an anti-LGBTQ local politician there and he once put her in an ad with him and said something like "if I can't marry my daughter, then gays shouldn't be able to marry each other" which is just... fucking creepy and weird.
	2:43am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:41 Yeah but, there is so much so-called cancel culture going on here, on all sides. So some of them tell you not to use the R word anymore. The other side tells you that if you get raped and get knocked up, you have to have the baby.
	2:45am Blissland: ↳ Ike @2:43 Yeah, that's a pretty weird equation.
	🎙 2:45am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:43 Mate., America still calls Otherwise Able People "Handicapped". So relax.
	2:45am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:45 I'm trying, man.
	🎙 2:49am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:45 It ain't a relaxing World mate. But I grew up in the 1st Cold War, learning about Global Warming. I know know the Universe doesn't give a fuck about our puny presence. Because we are the only ones making shit up. To be real is quite liberating.
	2:50am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:49 Liberating from bullshit in a way, but a very difficult choice to live by.
	2:51am greenlight: sounds very synthy / modular like
	🎙 2:51am _Ike_: ↳ Scott67 @2:45 Fortunately I don’t see that word around much anymore.
	2:52am Blissland: I was born in 1960 during the first cold war I guess. I was never scared of being annihilated, nuclear or otherwise, and still not. I never worried about those bombs.
	🎙 2:53am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:50 Not if you can't stay dumb mate. You need to find the moment of realization of the impermanence of all things. & not in a Buddhist way.
	2:54am Hugo (NL): hi!
	🎙 2:55am Scott67: Beautiful Show Jonathan! Thank you mate! 🌏☀️🍻😎🤙💨🍺🌻❤️
	2:55am Blissland: Right now I'm in the midst of a kind of resignation, being unable to change my situation. I don't know if I will ever learn to let go, though. My memories all haunt me.
	2:56am beavo: I was hoping for long from dirge because I need to go to sleep to it open
	2:56am Blissland: Thanks Jonathan
	🎙 2:56am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:55 Mine too mate, for now.
	🎙 2:56am Aitch: Been enjoying the sounds, thanks JH
	2:57am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:56 Things may still change for the better. There may still be some hope.
	🎙 2:58am Scott67: Our Planet will endure mate.🌏
	2:58am greenlight: Thanks for the show. How was the shooting las week Jonathan by the way?
	2:58am Blissland: Is hypnogogia the effect when you stay awake too long and start dreaming with your eyes open?
	2:58am greenlight: See ya all!
	2:59am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:58 The planet will be ok for the next few billion years.

Listener comments!
	🎙 12:03am Scott67: G'day Jonathan & Obscure Adults! 🌏☀️🍻😎🤙💨🍺🌻
	12:03am Blissland: g'day ... midnight here
	12:03am Bobby: I am in here
	12:04am Bobby: at midnight
	🎙 12:05am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @12:03 Just gone 4pm Monday arvo here.
	12:05am Blissland: Slightly more lavender than Suzy Hotrod's hot pink
	🎙 12:07am Scott67: If ya here coel? I googled Yard Owl Brewery mate. Looks yummy, but no sign of a distributor here. If ya fangin' for a beer now, catch cobber! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	🎙 12:09am Jherweg: Hey everyone !
	12:09am Blissland: Greetings Jonathan
	12:13am JBo: Hi Jonny! All ears here in JT
	12:14am Richy4619: ░░░░▒▒▓▓▓▓██████▓▓▓▓▒▒▒▒▒░░░░░
	🎙 12:15am Jherweg: Good , knowing you’re listening has a calming effect JenBo:)
	12:15am coelacanth∅: yeah Scott that was directed toward Will, as i think his location is near mine somewhat. silly nonconformist me shoulda used the chat bubble feature! ...it's local, and small (2-person operation), but even the styles that i usually can't stand (ie pale ales, sours, fruity brews...) i've enjoyed from that one. (last i knew they didn't make any hearty stouts or porters though. strange, with his irish/english background)
	🎙 12:17am Scott67: You rebel you!🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	12:18am Blissland: Some of the best stouts we can get here are Samuel Smith, but the cost has become prohibitive. Ironically though, the excellent chocolate stout brewed in brooklyn is just as costly.
	🎙 12:19am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:15 TRASH CULT now has it's own TRASH BEER. Brewed locally by a small setup who grow their own Barley.
	12:21am Blissland: now we're cookin
	12:22am coelacanth∅: heh...and i just ate a minty chocolate thing, so i think a beer is not gonna taste good now! a have some lemon ...schnapps? (full-strength lemon liquor, whatever it's called) also from a local distillery. think i'll have a nightcap. and Jonathan i changed my avatar to this beautiful image because it might be more calming than a lowrider karmen ghia. -except for the cathartic aspect, if you're driving one!
	12:23am northguineahills: ↳ Scott67 @12:19 i was hoping the barley would be gently used, being, trash beer, you know...
	🎙 12:25am Scott67: This is what I used to drink at parties & BBQ's. strait from a 750ml bottle. australianbeerposters.com.au...
	12:25am Blissland: this makes me want to smoke some weed too.
	12:26am coelacanth∅: Blisshard i loved Smith's oatmeal stout and taddy porter at one time. lighter than my preference but very good. but expensive,ya. and the heavenly tasting brooklyn chocolate stout destroys me! i get a severe headache by 1/2way into the 2nd one. that's the case with all of their brews i've had.
	🎙 12:26am Scott67: ↳ northguineahills @12:23 It get heavily used once in the TRASH CULT Beer fridge mate! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	12:27am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:26 Those are great brews, and the Samuel Smith Imperial Stout.
	🎙 12:27am Aitch: Enjoying the sounds
	12:27am northguineahills: ↳ Scott67 @12:26 trash beer is what i used to call all of the orphan beers left over from a party (which i may or may not still drink,)....
	12:28am coelacanth∅: oh right, imperial stout too. one was heavier (which i like) than the other but now i don't remember which
	🎙 12:28am Aitch: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:22 oh deer
	🎙 12:29am Scott67: ↳ northguineahills @12:27 I like your style mate!🍺
	12:29am coelacanth∅: ↳ Aitch @12:28 indeed!
	12:30am Blissland: I think the imperial stout is a little heavier than the oatmeal stout. There was a scotch ale that I used to like very much too.
	12:30am wenzo (listener #143834): 👍
	🎙 12:30am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:22 Beer can follow mint mate! Get it in ya! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	12:30am coelacanth∅: (i should've grabbed one of those deer puns off the shelf there but i wasn't thinking)
	12:31am Blissland: But the Brooklyn is richer than both of those. But you haven't had seriously powerful beer until you tried Delerium Tremens.
	🎙 12:31am Scott67: ↳ Song: "Fehn" by "Kobynat Robotron" This track is thick & smoky. Like my stouts!
	12:31am Blissland: There's a reason they put a pink elephant on the label.
	12:33am Blissland: that was trippy.
	12:36am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Fehn" by "Kobynat Robotron" I love this. I love stout, also, but I'm tired of the high alcohol content of American craft stouts, and the overbearing heavy flavor that they usually have, like "chocolate " stouts. If there were a nice smooth American stout around 4%, I'd buy it, but I've never found one. So I'm happy with a nice Guinness or Murphy's.
	12:39am coelacanth∅: Scott i'm already sipping the lemony liquor. Cheers! Blisshard i've had that. liked it, didn't love it. -but the alcohol content doesn't bother me one way or the other. i can handle a lot but don't feel like i want a lot! that's not what killed me with the brooklyn brews. ...some kind of allergic reaction, i'd say.
	12:39am Blissland: ↳ McGroovey @12:36 The Samuel Smiths are less heavy, but have become very expensive. I used to like the "draught" cans of Murphy's.
	🎙 12:39am Scott67: 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
	🎙 12:39am Aitch: Coopers Stout at a nice 6.8% my fave but probably not a lot of that getting exported
	12:40am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:39 oh yeah, I definitely don't want Delerium Tremens every time I have a beer either.
	12:40am coelacanth∅: McGroovey, murphy's is my go-to
	12:40am TroyD8: Thanks for the Television!
	🎙 12:40am Scott67: ↳ Aitch @12:39 Nice Aitch!🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	12:40am diciassette: Hello, and thanks in advance for the Television tribute. I got to see Tom Verlaine play a few years ago.
	12:41am diciassette: ↳ TroyD8 @12:40 You beat me to it! That's what I get for trying to be too verbose.
	12:41am Blissland: ↳ Song: "Friction" by "Television" Jonathan thank you for that, and your obituary.
	🎙 12:41am Scott67: ↳ McGroovey @12:36 Maybe try a Dark Ale mate?🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	12:41am Marc M: Hey Jonathan- great show so far tonight!
	12:42am diciassette: Ahoy Scott! I have, in my fridge, a can of beer called "Vegas as Fuck"
	🎙 12:43am Aitch: ↳ Scott67 @12:40 6.3%. Off the turps myself, so enough of this evil banter whilst I collect more tea
	12:43am Blissland: One of so many great records to come out of new york in the '70s
	12:43am coelacanth∅: hey dici! i don't know why but i never saw the tele back in the day; but i did see them after the reunion in the 90s. i won tickets calling the station (wfmu) with the answer to some trivia. i brought a friend that i thought would Love it and she said it didn't do anything for her. go figure.
	🎙 12:44am Scott67: ↳ diciassette @12:42 Dici! Awesome as fuck mate!🎲🎰 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	12:45am TroyD8: ↳ diciassette @12:40 That’s awesome!
	🎙 12:45am Scott67: ↳ Aitch @12:43 Soz mate! I guessed as much! Heal well fella! 😎🤙💨🫖🌿
	12:45am coelacanth∅: Aitch -today was a 2-cupper! i love my tea.
	12:47am coelacanth∅: and this song
	🎙 12:48am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:45 You'd be a light weight in England mate!
	🎙 12:49am Scott67: The Poms cal Tea O' in the middle of a battle!
	🎙 12:49am Scott67: call*
	12:50am Blissland: make tea not war
	12:50am coelacanth∅: ha! -with the tea, maybe. yes. okay i'm a lightweight! even 2 cups keeps me buzzing until 6am! but the whiskey i got 'em beat!
	12:51am Blissland: Whisky may be even more controversial than beer.
	12:51am coelacanth∅: but then i can drink 5 shots of espresso with some heavy cream and be pretty okay
	12:53am northguineahills: ight, gonna try to leave, thanks Jonathan!
	12:53am Blissland: ↳ northguineahills @12:53 pleasant dreams
	12:55am Blissland: The best blended whisky I've tasted was Johnny Walker blue label, but the best whisky I've had was some single malt scotch.
	12:55am coelacanth∅: lyons green box (my favorite) gives me more energy than i could possibly need. taylor's "scottish breakfast" (my 2nd favorite) does the same. but i like them for the flavour. i wish they didn't buzz me so much. but today i had darjeeling tea, and i'm not flying. coffee does less still.
	🎙 12:55am Scott67: ↳ northguineahills @12:53 Sweet ones NGH 🌻
	12:55am northguineahills: ↳ Scott67 @12:55 merci!
	12:56am coelacanth∅: tchau ngh Blissland i am NOT a scotch drinker!
	12:56am Blissland: Me neither, I usually stick to beer.
	🎙 12:56am Scott67: Shhh! Aitch is reading this!🥛🧃🫖
	12:58am coelacanth∅: oh i like jameson! - and some bourbons
	12:58am coelacanth∅: haha Scott Yes, of course you know i mean jameson brand OAT MILK of course
	🎙 12:59am Aitch: love it but I canny 'ave it, not even a wee dram
	🎙 1:00am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:58 That's some soft whisky shit mate!
	1:01am coelacanth∅: there are plenty of other things to enjoy that are actually good for you, after all. and we want you around a while Aitch.
	🎙 1:02am Scott67: I like oats! Oats are good for you!
	1:03am Blissland: There are oats in oatmeal stout.
	🎙 1:03am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @1:03 Ya bastard!🤣😂😉
	1:04am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @1:03 yeah
	1:04am coelacanth∅: Scott @1 - jameson?
	🎙 1:06am Ike: Did someone say oats? I'm baking granola right now!
	1:06am wenzo (listener #143834): Is that Theo e with Robert Mitchum? Or am I thinking of some other film
	🎙 1:07am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:04 As Irish Irish Whisky goes, it's a bit bland for me mate. Bushmills is the longest running Distillery in Ireland. They make a tasty beverage!
	1:07am wenzo (listener #143834): *the one
	1:08am Hubig Pie: Got here just in time for the hard left turn
	🎙 1:08am Scott67: ↳ Hubig Pie @1:08 Remember to indicate mate!
	1:09am Blissland: Doesn't seem like a hard turn
	🎙 1:09am Jherweg: Yes Robert Mitchum indeed .
	1:10am TroyD8: ↳ Song: "Blanche" by "Model Alpha" Perfect!
	1:11am Hubig Pie: ↳ Scott67 @1:08 The politeness center implores you to always use your blinker
	1:11am Blissland: heh
	1:11am coelacanth∅: Scott i don't care for bushmills except the blackbush which is okay. is bland the new smooth?! anyway i'd rather support the true irish folk (even if their religion is whack!) not the english invaders who came in and started the bushmills distillery!
	1:13am coelacanth∅: (and it's not like jameson is less potent. it just tastes better.)
	1:14am Blissland: I don't know of a better blended whisky than Johnny Walker blue label.
	1:14am wenzo (listener #143834): I saw that probably 15+ years ago… can’t remember anything about it but I remember thinking it was good
	🎙 1:14am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:11 You know your history mate! I'm biased cos I lived an easy hitch up the road from it for 9 months. Free tours & free samples did it to me. & yes, fuck all religion, without fear or favour.
	1:15am Jayna: Listening from LA, love your musical vibes tonight Jonny!
	🎙 1:18am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:13 My Scottish heritage must have me tuned to the bight of Scotch Whisky mate.
	1:19am coelacanth∅: Scott i once asked a guy in the liquor store here which one he preferred. he got notably anxious! he stammered well they're both good whiskies. i said you must prefer one, they're quite different from each-other. he took a deep breath, looked at me and i guess decided it was okay to say "well it depends if you're catholic or protestant".
	🎙 1:20am Scott67: Balantine & Dimple are some user friendly Blended Scotch.
	🎙 1:20am Aitch: ...nice stinky Islay malts....
	1:21am Robm: ↳ Scott67 @1:20 Johnny walker red
	1:22am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:19 Where did that happen?
	1:23am Blissland: I don't know what single malt I had but it was smoky and delcious.
	1:23am coelacanth∅: Blissland i think blue label is the only johnny walker i've never tried. but i'll drink recycled beer before drinking any of the others! or any other blended scotch whiskies. (dewers is even worse!) but to be fair, i despise single malt scotch as well. doesn't matter if it's $800/bottle. it's disgusting!
	1:24am wenzo (listener #143834): Anybody ever try rubbing alcohol? It’s got alcohol right in the name. Gotta be good, right?
	1:24am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @1:22 upstate(ish) new york
	1:25am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:23 I've tried all the Johnny Walkers and the blue is the only one worth anything. I don't know if I've ever had Canadian whisky, unless Chivas Regal is Canadian.
	🎙 1:25am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:19 Yeah! I worked in kitchens while there. The Micks sat in one spot & the Prodies in another. I sat with the Micks unintentionally, cos they were in my kitchen area, & they had the scones! They eventually made me aware of the dogma separation, & asked; "what are you"? I said, I'm Australian.
	1:25am coelacanth∅: wenzo don't be a toad!
	1:25am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:24 Oh me too, I'm in the butt end of ulster county now. Wishing I could be back in sawkill.
	🎙 1:25am Scott67: ↳ Robm @1:21 Not a fan mate.
	1:26am wenzo (listener #143834): 😂
	🎙 1:26am Scott67: ↳ Aitch @1:20 Spot on mate!
	1:26am Blissland: The red and the black are harsh.
	1:27am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @1:25 What did they make of that?
	1:28am coelacanth∅: others have said that about the blue. i still will likely never try it -or maybe a sip of someone's glass. especially as i rarely drink at all now. (relatively)
	1:28am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:28 Yeah it's too costly.
	1:28am Hubig Pie: I enjoyed very much a bottle of single malt Oban during a work stay in St Louis. But Scotch is not found in me liquor locker . I'm a gin man
	🎙 1:28am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @1:27 They laughed! Until I also added & an un-christened lifelong Atheist.
	1:29am coelacanth∅: ha, Scott @125 you were lucky to be an ozzy in that moment!
	1:29am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @1:28 lol oh boy
	1:29am Blissland: wacky world
	1:30am greenlight: good morning. tuning in. RIP Tom Verlaine
	1:30am coelacanth∅: ↳ Scott67 @1:28 D'oh!
	1:31am Blissland: Isn't it all too much to keep track of?
	1:31am coelacanth∅: Hubig i like gin now & then. saphire, or ten
	🎙 1:31am Scott67: ↳ Hubig Pie @1:28 I had a tasting at the Oban Distillery mate. My initiation to a peaty single malt, I hated it! But that was over 30 years ago. Now I'm a convert, just can't afford any decent single malts.
	1:31am Blissland: ↳ greenlight @1:30 Yes we're mourning and celebrating Tom's work.
	1:33am Blissland: OCD?
	🎙 1:33am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:30 They got over it quick, when I appeared without fear or shame. The whole time I hitched around Ireland, I felt like an adult in a country of kids.
	1:33am coelacanth∅: Blissland i'm not sure which direction is the butt but this store's in new paltz. i'm not exactly in new paltz, but close.
	1:34am coelacanth∅: hey greenlight!
	1:34am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:33 What store? The butt end is ellenville.
	1:36am greenlight: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:34 hey coelacanth∅!
	1:36am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:33 Sorry, don't mean to be nosy. I might check out snug harbor again at some point.
	1:37am Blissland: I haven't been anywhere since before covid started.
	1:38am coelacanth∅: ah, ellenville. 'used to be some good meth labs over there! (actually i don't know if they were good!) my cousins lived there when i was little but they sold the land decades ago. i know a few people over the ridge. the store i don't know the name! it's the one near the post office.
	1:38am Hubig Pie: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:31 Me pop's always told me to stick with the bottom shelf brands cuz gin isn't high brow swill
	1:38am greenlight: ↳ Blissland @1:31 seen that alright
	1:39am Blissland: I haven't been to ellenville either at night since I was forced to leave kingston 7 years ago. It's still white trash far as I can tell. Nothing but a shop-rite and a wal-mart. Good place to move if you're ready to die.
	1:40am Hubig Pie: ↳ Song: "Alleyway Tango" by ":nepaal" This is some good jammer
	1:41am Blissland: ↳ Hubig Pie @1:40 Yes.
	1:41am greenlight: ↳ Scott67 @1:31 Hey Scott67 my English is not that good. What expression hitched around Ireland means? why did you feel like an adult in a country of kids?, hehe.
	1:42am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:38 Is it a liquor store? Sorry I missed the part of that thread about the store.
	1:43am Richy4619: ↳ Blissland @1:39 I was forced to leave Kingston some 26 years ago, Blissland if' n means anything and you're funny haha
	1:44am coelacanth∅: snugs is the only pub i go to any more, but it's been a month or 2 now. Hubig i'm fairly ignorant. i don't doubt what he said; and my father drank store-brand gin. but i like the herbal essence of the saphire; and the ten i grew to like after confiscating 6 bottle of it from someone who had to stop drinking.
	1:45am Blissland: I just realized one of the cool things about this, like back in the old days we can all be listening to the same thing, but it's not necessary to interrupt the sound to communicate with words.
	🎙 1:46am Scott67: ↳ greenlight @1:41 Hitchhiking or auto stop mate.😎👍🚗
	1:47am Blissland: ↳ Richy4619 @1:43 What do you mean, funny??? just kidding. I moved to the top of hallihan hill in '95. I was forced to leave in 2015 when the owner died, She left the property to her son in montana who wanted to immediately liquidate. It was 28 acres to myself. Hard getting used to neighbors.
	1:48am greenlight: ↳ Scott67 @1:46 thought so.. was not sure.... so you hitchhiked around IRL? nice. I used to live there for 15 years so I been all over the place, I was just wondering why you felt like an adult in coutnry of kids :D, hahaha
	1:49am coelacanth∅: ↳ Scott67 @1:33 2 excerpts from a Sinead O'Connor song,"famine": "See we're like a child that's been battered Has to drive itself out of it's head because it's frightened ... I see the Irish As a race like a child That got itself bashed in the face..."
	1:50am Blissland: ↳ Richy4619 @1:43 Did something similar happen to you?
	1:51am Hubig Pie: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:44 Tanqueray and Sapphire definitely bring more flavor and deliver more alcoholic punch. I ignored my father's advice and always keep a bottle of one or the other in the potent potable cabinet
	🎙 1:52am Scott67: ↳ greenlight @1:48 & in the early 90's Ireland was under the tyranny of Church running the State. So people to me seemed childlike in their fearful & subservient ways. Only getting loose & free when drunk.
	1:52am Max Dangerman: Loving the show here in Seattle. Thanks!
	🎙 1:52am Scott67: ↳ greenlight @1:48 I hitched around France too mate.
	1:53am Richy4619: ↳ Blissland @1:50 yeah. IBM left. Took the jobs away so we split.
	1:53am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @1:52 It's been getting more like that here in the states for a while.
	🎙 1:53am Aitch: ↳ Scott67 @1:52 Did they ever find any of the bodies?
	🎙 1:53am Scott67: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:49 I tear up pictures of the pope to that song mate!
	1:53am Hubig Pie: That :nepaal was a banger
	1:53am Blissland: ↳ Richy4619 @1:53 Oh, yeah that was a while ago. Something new is supposedly moving there. Some business.
	1:54am Blissland: Enterprise Drive
	🎙 1:54am Aitch: ↳ Scott67 @1:52 but they're always drunk? (or asleep)
	🎙 1:55am Scott67: ↳ Aitch @1:53 I ate them mate!🍷🍴🥖
	1:55am Max Dangerman: ↳ Hubig Pie @1:53 Yes! The first I'd heard them
	1:55am coelacanth∅: Scott, right down to the silly dancing -the result of being forbidden to dance at all; so they invented a way to dance so from the waist-up they don't look like they're dancing.
	1:55am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @1:53 truth
	1:56am Blissland: I still prefer Elvis Costello to Elvis Presley.
	🎙 1:56am Scott67: ↳ Aitch @1:54 Often! Especially on good friday, when you couldn't even buy a wine with you meal in a fucken restaurant!
	1:57am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:55 Subservience is the fundamental problem. Being a sheep.
	🎙 1:58am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @1:53 Yep! Scary shit mate! The rise of the christian right is the Fascist vanguard seeking to plague our Planet once more.
	1:59am greenlight: ↳ Scott67 @1:52 oh I see what you referred to. yes, you are right. up till late 90ties big catholic presence in all matters of everyday life. true. I stayed there from 2000 to 2015. Loved it. It is my second home. Can´t believe how it changed since then. I am still going there often for a visits.
	1:59am Blissland: On balance, it's hard to argue that Christianity has been worth the trouble.
	2:02am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @1:58 Don't get me started. But yeah it's scary. Not so much for younger folks since they don't know any better. But that's part of the problem too.
	2:03am Blissland: like Can
	🎙 2:03am Scott67: ↳ greenlight @1:59 So much for the better now mate! May they free from the shackles of shame forever! Marriage Equality, A Gay Leader..... When I was there the Government was forbidding a 14 year old Rape Survivor from traveling with her Parents to UK for a Abortion. I will never forget my rage!
	2:04am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:03 They are doing the same thing here now.
	2:04am coelacanth∅: Scott @203 well now a significant % of the us has taken that roll.
	2:04am Blissland: We are going high speed in reverse.
	🎙 2:05am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:04 Yep! Land of the FREE indeed mate! Fucked beyond belief to us in the Free thinking World.
	2:05am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @2:04 yeh we are
	2:06am Blissland: JONATHAN!!!!!!!
	2:07am Hubig Pie: Speed and cheap beer was a brilliant description. Check out Marissa Nader's cover of Solitude on last year's Sacred Bones Sabbath tribute
	2:07am Blissland: Scary now. Covid didn't help either.
	2:08am Hubig Pie: Nadler's goddamit
	2:08am Blissland: Bad Trips, that makes sense.
	🎙 2:08am Scott67: Conservatism is a commerce, too many will lose billions on if we live in a truly just World. So they will kill to preserve the system.
	2:09am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:08 Sure, conservatism is one thing, fascism and idiocracy are other things.
	2:10am greenlight: ↳ Scott67 @2:03 yeap, exactly, abortion was illegal up till recently. Anyone who decided (of had to) for abortion had to apply for it in UK.
	🎙 2:10am Scott67: ↳ Scott67 @2:08 Even if they kill the Planet!🌏
	🎙 2:11am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:09 Not if you are in the media mate.
	2:11am Blissland: I believe the Dobbs decision if that's what it was, is the first time in u.s. history that rights were legally taken away from more than half the population, by the highest court.
	2:12am wenzo (listener #143834): Gonna try & catch some zzzs, thanks JH
	2:12am Blissland: I have no trustworthy source of news anymore. The last outlet I had on the cable that was any good was russia today. Ironically enough.
	2:13am Hubig Pie: Jah. Love the show. G'night
	2:13am Blissland: But they had people like Chris Hedges, Glen Greenwald, Noam Chomsky.
	2:13am Blissland: ↳ Hubig Pie @2:13 pleasant dreams.
	2:17am Richy4619: ↳ Blissland @2:13 - - - [{-_-}] - - -ZZZ zzz
	2:18am Blissland: ↳ Richy4619 @2:17 I'm off that.
	🎙 2:25am Ike: Sounds great, JH!
	2:29am Hi from Holland: Aloha! That was a nice kitty cat...
	🎙 2:30am Scott67: Get that cat outa here!
	2:30am Blissland: Hi Hi from Holland
	2:31am Hi from Holland: 👋
	2:33am Blissland: I must have that record.
	🎙 2:34am Ike: ↳ Blissland @2:12 Definitely not a fan of RT here. Putin is a master of using the Russian Orthodox church for totalitarian purposes and pushes anti-LGBTQ propaganda heavily. Didn't RT also push Tulsi Gabbard a lot? Did you know she belongs to a bizarre cult called Science of Identity that worships a white surfer dude who declared himself a guru? Like him, she is viciously Islamophobic and is now returning to her anti-LGBTQ roots.
	🎙 2:35am Scott67: Putin is the new Hitler.
	2:36am Blissland: ↳ Ike @2:34 I didn't know that about Tulsi Gabbard, but I am not a fan of putin, nor of anyone who promotes bigotry of any kind.
	2:37am Blissland: I agree with Linda Ronstadt when she supposedly said that t***p is our hitler. Wow it's even easier to type hitler's name.
	🎙 2:39am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:37 He's a little Mussolini mate! A true Fascist, but a pathetic narcissistic coward.
	2:39am Blissland: ↳ Ike @2:34 Is that why she left the democratic party?
	2:40am greenlight: that d'voxx track was cool
	🎙 2:40am Scott67: Putin is a Dictator of a captive audience.
	2:40am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:39 Scott yeah, he always reminded me of a retarded, even more narcissistic version of mussolini. Will I be banned for saying the R word?
	2:41am Blissland: He's what we commonly call a dipshit.
	🎙 2:41am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:40 Not in it's Dictionary sense relating to a dictator mate.
	🎙 2:43am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:41 Far more divisive & dangerous than a dipshit mate. Dismissing him as such made him your President.
	🎙 2:43am Ike: ↳ Blissland @2:39 From what I understand, yes. She may have only joined it in the first place because it's so dominant in Hawaii, and the dingbats in charge did not do enough vetting of her and her weird parents and her creepy cult. Her dad is an anti-LGBTQ local politician there and he once put her in an ad with him and said something like "if I can't marry my daughter, then gays shouldn't be able to marry each other" which is just... fucking creepy and weird.
	2:43am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:41 Yeah but, there is so much so-called cancel culture going on here, on all sides. So some of them tell you not to use the R word anymore. The other side tells you that if you get raped and get knocked up, you have to have the baby.
	2:45am Blissland: ↳ Ike @2:43 Yeah, that's a pretty weird equation.
	🎙 2:45am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:43 Mate., America still calls Otherwise Able People "Handicapped". So relax.
	2:45am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:45 I'm trying, man.
	🎙 2:49am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:45 It ain't a relaxing World mate. But I grew up in the 1st Cold War, learning about Global Warming. I know know the Universe doesn't give a fuck about our puny presence. Because we are the only ones making shit up. To be real is quite liberating.
	2:50am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:49 Liberating from bullshit in a way, but a very difficult choice to live by.
	2:51am greenlight: sounds very synthy / modular like
	🎙 2:51am _Ike_: ↳ Scott67 @2:45 Fortunately I don’t see that word around much anymore.
	2:52am Blissland: I was born in 1960 during the first cold war I guess. I was never scared of being annihilated, nuclear or otherwise, and still not. I never worried about those bombs.
	🎙 2:53am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:50 Not if you can't stay dumb mate. You need to find the moment of realization of the impermanence of all things. & not in a Buddhist way.
	2:54am Hugo (NL): hi!
	🎙 2:55am Scott67: Beautiful Show Jonathan! Thank you mate! 🌏☀️🍻😎🤙💨🍺🌻❤️
	2:55am Blissland: Right now I'm in the midst of a kind of resignation, being unable to change my situation. I don't know if I will ever learn to let go, though. My memories all haunt me.
	2:56am beavo: I was hoping for long from dirge because I need to go to sleep to it open
	2:56am Blissland: Thanks Jonathan
	🎙 2:56am Scott67: ↳ Blissland @2:55 Mine too mate, for now.
	🎙 2:56am Aitch: Been enjoying the sounds, thanks JH
	2:57am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:56 Things may still change for the better. There may still be some hope.
	🎙 2:58am Scott67: Our Planet will endure mate.🌏
	2:58am greenlight: Thanks for the show. How was the shooting las week Jonathan by the way?
	2:58am Blissland: Is hypnogogia the effect when you stay awake too long and start dreaming with your eyes open?
	2:58am greenlight: See ya all!
	2:59am Blissland: ↳ Scott67 @2:58 The planet will be ok for the next few billion years.
