	12:42am alanSixº: ↳ Erica from Cranford @12:40 no doubt - i first grabbed a pineapple then i went back and swapped it out
	12:42am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): I'm fairly sure that some sort of sonic paradox that destroys the universe will occur if you ever get to play the whole of Songs Written for the "Great Ones . . . That Were Never Heard".
	12:42am alanSixº: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @12:39 i gotta ck it out

	12:51am Aitch: you made it all better
	12:52am alanSixº: ↳ Aitch @12:51 these guys gotta love ween right?
	12:53am Aitch: ↳ alanSixº @12:52 On a kaiser bun
	12:53am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:48 Is that an old Buick?
	12:54am coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "brown" by "Hairy Patt Band" reminds me of killdozer too
	12:55am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @12:53 yup, 1960 elektra
	12:56am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:55 nice. I have no idea how I know these things.
	12:57am Blissland: Cars and tv news reporters, for some reason
	12:58am LastWhiteRhino: ↳ Blissland @12:56 Are you a Buickologist?
	12:59am Blissland: ↳ LastWhiteRhino @12:58 Not at all, but I've always liked cars. But it tended to be models later than 1960.
	1:01am coelacanth∅: yeah you're usually on target. you must pick up details subconsciously -like those notches above the front fender, or the similarities to both a cadillac and an impala (buick being between them, supposedly, in the gm hierarchy...)
	1:02am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:01 It must be, and same with tv news reporters. Some weird savant thing related to aspergers
	1:02am carl from pvd: thank you for the tunes
	1:02am LastWhiteRhino: The best part of the Jim/Alantine show last night was when Stashu called you two "Adorkable" ☺
	1:04am Paulo AD: ↳ LastWhiteRhino @1:02 Not trying to get them to kiss hahaa
	1:04am coelacanth∅: ↳ LastWhiteRhino @1:02 haha Stashu's Great!
	1:05am carl from pvd: happy 2016
	1:05am coelacanth∅: waltz
	1:11am Blissland: You always know when Maggie shows up cause of the smell of the tapes
	1:11am ami ad: juice
	1:11am Maggie Hertz!: Oh I will Alan!! Than youuuu!!
	1:12am coelacanth∅: you should make digital copies before Maggie dissolves them in a bubbling cauldron
	1:12am Blissland: see
	1:12am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:12 I’m not a MONSTER! I’ll digitize them for Alan before I run them ragged!
	1:12am alanSixº: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:12 haha maybe she will
	1:13am coelacanth∅: OH, uh, HI Maggie!
	1:13am alanSixº: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @1:12 aww thanx maggie
	1:13am Blissland: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @1:12 That's exactly what a monster would say
	1:13am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ alanSixº @1:13 The LEAST I can do after just even seeing a Fat Tony cassette in the bunch!
	1:13am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @1:13 hahaha
	1:16am Paulo AD: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @1:12 Yeah yeah, sure thing pal :P
	1:16am Blissland: This little dittie is growing on me
	1:16am Blissland: get it off
	1:17am coelacanth∅: i've got to digitize a bunch of tapes before it's too late...before i clock out... got some vintage wfmu recordings some will find interesting. time... time.
	1:18am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:17 There's always either too much or not enough
	1:20am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:17 Once I put the whole WFMU TV series on 4 dvd's
	1:22am I.M.Pufnstuff: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:17 I have cassette tapes of Station Manager Ken doing a show at the station he was working at in college - WCBN in Ann Arbor. Some funny stuff.
	1:23am alanSixº: ↳ carl from pvd @1:02 hey carl my pleasure
	1:24am Paulo AD: Digitise them to mini disc
	1:24am Blissland: I also recorded a lot of Alan Watts and Joe Frank on cassettes but I guess those have been digitally transferred already
	1:24am alanSixº: ↳ LastWhiteRhino @1:02 stashu made us kiss
	1:25am pgalub: Hey alanSixº and everyone.
	1:27am I.M.Pufnstuff: ↳ Blissland @1:24 Joe Frank! I have a bunch of his work on CD's and saw one of his last live performances at The Village Studio in LA
	1:27am coelacanth∅: ↳ I.M.Pufnstuff @1:22 oh man i'd like to hear those! i'm sure many of us would.
	1:28am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @1:20 what's the wfmu tv series?
	1:28am Blissland: ↳ I.M.Pufnstuff @1:27 I used to like his shows on wfmu. Looks like now you have to pay to hear him as well as Alan Watts
	1:29am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:28 It was on cable tv in the early '90s. I recorded the whole series on vhs tapes, then later put them on dvd's. I sent copies to ken Freedman and he never mentioned it again.
	1:30am Blissland: I would be surprised if somebody doesn't have the original tapes
	1:33am I.M.Pufnstuff: ↳ Blissland @1:28 Joe was at KCRW in LA in the late 90's doing a show called Somewhere out There. I recorded a bunch on cassette. Met Joe as a volunteer helping raise money for the station for a pledge drive. He was such a cool guy and loved the sound pictures he created. Such a great library of work.
	1:33am Maggie Hertz!: Okay so I DID go back to Nebraska this past week and I’m… well, full of crap!
	1:35am Blissland: You would think it would be at the wfmu youtube channel
	1:36am Blissland: ↳ I.M.Pufnstuff @1:33 Yeah that was good stuff. I have maybe a dozen of his shows
	1:37am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @1:29 yeah he does seem to want to rewrite history occasionally. there are some show hosts i have tapes of from the 80s and 90s that there's no record of in wfmuland; and when i've mentioned them, a few times, there's no reply at all...except there's one current show host that does remember them.
	1:37am Blissland: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @1:33 Let it out
	1:38am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:37 That's rather Orwellian sounding
	1:40am Paulo AD: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @1:33 You mean the Springsteen album right ?
	1:41am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @1:38 i think -2 of them anyway, left wfmu somewhat acrimoniously. ...maybe it has something to do with it, maybe not.
	1:41am Blissland: WFMU TV had a lot of cool stuff, like That's Irritainment, and that weird southeast asian pop dance number, original skits performed by dj's, and the Church of the Subgenius
	1:42am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:41 Sounds very fishy to me
	1:42am LastWhiteRhino: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:41 Do you have any of Bud Styple's shows?
	1:45am coelacanth∅: i don't know. i mean, there are others who left fmu acrimoniously who's archives ARE available (one that i can name with positivity, but won't) so it's not just that.
	1:47am Blissland: Maybe I can upload them at some point. As always, of course, time. I have too much on my plate already. I shouldn't even be sitting here
	1:47am coelacanth∅: ↳ LastWhiteRhino @1:42 i remember him, so maybe...but unfortunately i recorded over many of the mic breaks when i needed more tape space and had no money.
	1:48am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:47 you should see what cassettes cost now. If you can even find them
	1:50am Blissland: I found a couple of sites that sell new cassettes, but I don't use them anymore. Maggie Hertz might
	1:52am ami ad: it'd cold here, going under covers.
	1:52am ami ad: Thank you, DJ.
	1:52am alanSixº: ↳ ami ad @1:52 gnite jeff - miss ya buddy we gotta get into trouble soon
	1:53am spodiodi: aloha, alanSixº and all! love the show's title tonight :)
	1:54am Blissland: ↳ spodiodi @1:53 greetings
	1:55am alanSixº: ↳ spodiodi @1:53 spodiodiodi
	1:55am spodiodi: and the image
	1:55am alanSixº: ↳ spodiodi @1:55 random library shot
	1:55am spodiodi: ↳ alanSixº @1:55 that's almost a yodel.
	1:56am spodiodi: ↳ alanSixº @1:55 it's hilarious
	1:56am coelacanth∅: hey spodi! 'night ami
	2:00am Blissland: Alan don't worry, nobody else remembers either
	2:02am Paulo AD: Urrch marathon...times to smash my card again lol
	2:03am Paulo AD: I just got my swag from 2022, no idea why I ordered a xl tshirt
	2:05am alanSixº: 201-209-9368
	2:05am Blissland: yay
	2:08am tardy vt valentine 💘: Hanne Hukkelberg : has several CDs / albums = “Little Things” (2005). I guess is her first & is a worthy album !
	2:08am Blissland: I'm going to drive my '89 300zx until it permanently dies
	2:11am coelacanth∅: i just yesterday noticed i've got 399k on my car. it's in pretty good shape but i need front tires. been driving on the spare for a few months now.
	2:12am Blissland: My odometer stopped at 150k some time before I owned it
	2:12am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:11 it really doesn't mean much at all. The condition can vary so widely
	2:13am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:11 But yeah, I like to have optimal tires at all times. What kind of car is it?
	2:14am Paulo AD: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:11 Just had to have a new alternator in mine, that was fun
	2:14am spodiodi: yØ coelacanthØ!
	2:16am Blissland: I wish him luck with the blood sucking
	2:17am LW Rhino: Sell blood, sweat, and tears = 3 income streams.
	2:18am Blissland: ↳ LW Rhino @2:17 what about all the other secretions and excretions
	2:19am LW Rhino: ↳ Blissland @2:18 That would throw him into a higher tax bracket.
	2:19am Blissland: ↳ LW Rhino @2:19 Gotta watch out for that
	2:20am alanSixº: next week we gotta get ask alan moving
	2:21am Paulo AD: ↳ LW Rhino @2:19 Half a liver, a kidney...rolling in it
	2:21am Blissland: ↳ alanSixº @2:20 There must be lots of people out there who need free unqualified advice
	2:27am LW Rhino: Valentine leftovers reheated....yay.
	2:32am LW Rhino: I still say Julie and Matt from Newark would be a superb match.
	2:33am alanSixº: ↳ LW Rhino @2:32 time will tell lwr
	2:36am Paulo AD: ↳ alanSixº @2:20 Its new slot, give it time :)
	2:38am alanSixº: ↳ Paulo AD @2:36 we'll see paolo!
	2:39am pizza bite: The Runaways were just a skosh before my blushing record buying youth. So it was early Joan Jett solo albums by the time I had awareness. I would see the Runaways albums in the bins & always put em back. I regret that now, all the fun listening I missed out on. Yet I think what scared me away the most was seeing early 80s videos of Big hair mode Lita Ford (for a punk snob, it wasn’t my vibe). Jump to the modern YouTube video era, finally seeing the mid-70s Runaways TV & in-studio & live appearances was a revelation. Lita Ford was smokin hot fire🔥🫠 and such a great lead 🎸guitarist (prior to her 80s Big hair regression). Sigh … nostalgia … 🤷‍♂️ 🫥🤷
	2:41am Hubig Pie: Evenin'. Hoping to hear some Frampton.
	2:41am Paulo AD: ↳ alanSixº @2:38 If i can get access to a vpn I'll call in next week :)
	2:41am alanSixº: ↳ pizza bite @2:39 haha thanx for sharing that pizza bite
	2:44am alanSixº: ↳ Hubig Pie @2:41 next week!!
	2:44am pizza bite: 🙇 ; Have you seen / watched any of those vintage mid 70s+ peak Runaways videos/footage … really quite sumpin !
	2:46am Listener Bop Monroe: greetings from 50mph gusts Tannersville 6DA and all. great show last nite! kisses to y'all.
	2:47am Paulo AD: Well I got so high the other day I broke through and met the aliens that control us haha
	2:47am spodiodi: love hearing the WEEN bed music
	2:47am Hubig Pie: ↳ pizza bite @2:44 I remember seeing them on Tom Snyder's late night show. They looked bored and angry. Cherry Bomb!
	2:48am spodiodi: long time WEEN nut here
	2:49am Hubig Pie: Chocolate mescaline was my favorite teenage psychedelic experience.
	2:50am Listener Bop Monroe: resident alien is back yay!
	2:50am alanSixº: ↳ Hubig Pie @2:49 that sounds nice
	2:50am Will thee Sound Guy: Thank you alanSix°!!!
	2:50am alanSixº: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @2:50 hey will!
	2:51am BH: I evaded direct impact from real world news on Wednesday by watching Heathers. So now I can make a "Winona at the end of Heathers" reference in regards to how Alan refers to Maggie preparing for her show
	2:52am spodiodi: ↳ Hubig Pie @2:49 i dove in head first to paper. that does sound good though (and i'm still curious)
	2:54am radioronan: Thanks, Alan..Cheers, hoodlums!
	2:55am spodiodi: thanks alanSixº. love catching you're show! especially love Hoboken Jacks pieces thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou🙏
	2:55am Listener Bop Monroe: fave heathers line: 'oh i don't know, they seem to have an open door policy on a**holes...' whips out big ass gun.
	2:56am Listener Bop Monroe: does NOT apply to DJM/CBR however!!
	2:56am Hubig Pie: ↳ spodiodi @2:52 It was easy to ingest and more mellow than purple microdot.
	2:56am alanSixº: i gotta rewatch heathers
	2:57am alanSixº: thanx for hangin everyone yous are the best
	2:57am Paulo AD: cheers al, great show as always
	2:57am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): I've haven't done drugs for over a decade. I don't think there's mescaline in Australia. I have only ever done weed. The only other drug that I've seen was crystal meth. I had a friend who had some meth and showed it to me. She had been paid in cash, meth, and weed, for some amateur audio engineering work. She refused to flush the meth down the toilet and her behaviour/mental illness had gotten worse around that time. We stopped being friends.
	2:58am pizza bite: I gotta find/watch that Tom Snyder session/interview. Funny - I recall watching late era Snyder (he was so annoying back then, but NOW - what I wouldn’t give to have sumpin like that back on broadcast!). It least it had juice and wasn’t so scripted & DOA. Twas a bit before my time to have clear recollections. Did Tom S. have any of the punk rockers at the time of late 70s etc era on his late night show ? Devo , the Clash ? Etc. What abt the NY Dolls ? Iggy ? Stooges ?
	2:58am spodiodi: ↳ Hubig Pie @2:56 more mellow eventually was what i wanted, and liked fungus better 🍄
	2:59am Listener Bop Monroe: this is nice. seems to be more real shrooms out here now in NYS. at least among the musicians i hang with. B safe all! til next week.
	2:59am spodiodi: todaay i got to do some OCREVUS for a few hours again
	2:59am pizza bite: Blondie , Ramones , Talking Heads ?
	3:00am spodiodi: yes on sixº of WEEN

	12:42am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): I'm fairly sure that some sort of sonic paradox that destroys the universe will occur if you ever get to play the whole of Songs Written for the "Great Ones . . . That Were Never Heard".

	12:53am Aitch: ↳ alanSixº @12:52 On a kaiser bun
	12:53am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:48 Is that an old Buick?
	12:54am coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "brown" by "Hairy Patt Band" reminds me of killdozer too
	12:55am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @12:53 yup, 1960 elektra
	12:56am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @12:55 nice. I have no idea how I know these things.
	12:57am Blissland: Cars and tv news reporters, for some reason
	12:58am LastWhiteRhino: ↳ Blissland @12:56 Are you a Buickologist?
	12:59am Blissland: ↳ LastWhiteRhino @12:58 Not at all, but I've always liked cars. But it tended to be models later than 1960.
	1:01am coelacanth∅: yeah you're usually on target. you must pick up details subconsciously -like those notches above the front fender, or the similarities to both a cadillac and an impala (buick being between them, supposedly, in the gm hierarchy...)
	1:02am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:01 It must be, and same with tv news reporters. Some weird savant thing related to aspergers
	1:02am carl from pvd: thank you for the tunes
	1:02am LastWhiteRhino: The best part of the Jim/Alantine show last night was when Stashu called you two "Adorkable" ☺
	1:04am Paulo AD: ↳ LastWhiteRhino @1:02 Not trying to get them to kiss hahaa
	1:04am coelacanth∅: ↳ LastWhiteRhino @1:02 haha Stashu's Great!
	1:05am carl from pvd: happy 2016
	1:05am coelacanth∅: waltz
	1:11am Blissland: You always know when Maggie shows up cause of the smell of the tapes
	1:11am ami ad: juice
	1:11am Maggie Hertz!: Oh I will Alan!! Than youuuu!!
	1:12am coelacanth∅: you should make digital copies before Maggie dissolves them in a bubbling cauldron
	1:12am Blissland: see
	1:12am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:12 I’m not a MONSTER! I’ll digitize them for Alan before I run them ragged!
	1:12am alanSixº: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:12 haha maybe she will
	1:13am coelacanth∅: OH, uh, HI Maggie!
	1:13am alanSixº: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @1:12 aww thanx maggie
	1:13am Blissland: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @1:12 That's exactly what a monster would say
	1:13am Maggie Hertz!: ↳ alanSixº @1:13 The LEAST I can do after just even seeing a Fat Tony cassette in the bunch!
	1:13am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @1:13 hahaha
	1:16am Paulo AD: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @1:12 Yeah yeah, sure thing pal :P
	1:16am Blissland: This little dittie is growing on me
	1:16am Blissland: get it off
	1:17am coelacanth∅: i've got to digitize a bunch of tapes before it's too late...before i clock out... got some vintage wfmu recordings some will find interesting. time... time.
	1:18am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:17 There's always either too much or not enough
	1:20am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:17 Once I put the whole WFMU TV series on 4 dvd's
	1:22am I.M.Pufnstuff: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:17 I have cassette tapes of Station Manager Ken doing a show at the station he was working at in college - WCBN in Ann Arbor. Some funny stuff.
	1:23am alanSixº: ↳ carl from pvd @1:02 hey carl my pleasure
	1:24am Paulo AD: Digitise them to mini disc
	1:24am Blissland: I also recorded a lot of Alan Watts and Joe Frank on cassettes but I guess those have been digitally transferred already
	1:24am alanSixº: ↳ LastWhiteRhino @1:02 stashu made us kiss
	1:25am pgalub: Hey alanSixº and everyone.
	1:27am I.M.Pufnstuff: ↳ Blissland @1:24 Joe Frank! I have a bunch of his work on CD's and saw one of his last live performances at The Village Studio in LA
	1:27am coelacanth∅: ↳ I.M.Pufnstuff @1:22 oh man i'd like to hear those! i'm sure many of us would.
	1:28am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @1:20 what's the wfmu tv series?
	1:28am Blissland: ↳ I.M.Pufnstuff @1:27 I used to like his shows on wfmu. Looks like now you have to pay to hear him as well as Alan Watts
	1:29am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:28 It was on cable tv in the early '90s. I recorded the whole series on vhs tapes, then later put them on dvd's. I sent copies to ken Freedman and he never mentioned it again.
	1:30am Blissland: I would be surprised if somebody doesn't have the original tapes
	1:33am I.M.Pufnstuff: ↳ Blissland @1:28 Joe was at KCRW in LA in the late 90's doing a show called Somewhere out There. I recorded a bunch on cassette. Met Joe as a volunteer helping raise money for the station for a pledge drive. He was such a cool guy and loved the sound pictures he created. Such a great library of work.
	1:33am Maggie Hertz!: Okay so I DID go back to Nebraska this past week and I’m… well, full of crap!
	1:35am Blissland: You would think it would be at the wfmu youtube channel
	1:36am Blissland: ↳ I.M.Pufnstuff @1:33 Yeah that was good stuff. I have maybe a dozen of his shows
	1:37am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @1:29 yeah he does seem to want to rewrite history occasionally. there are some show hosts i have tapes of from the 80s and 90s that there's no record of in wfmuland; and when i've mentioned them, a few times, there's no reply at all...except there's one current show host that does remember them.
	1:37am Blissland: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @1:33 Let it out
	1:38am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:37 That's rather Orwellian sounding
	1:40am Paulo AD: ↳ Maggie Hertz! @1:33 You mean the Springsteen album right ?
	1:41am coelacanth∅: ↳ Blissland @1:38 i think -2 of them anyway, left wfmu somewhat acrimoniously. ...maybe it has something to do with it, maybe not.
	1:41am Blissland: WFMU TV had a lot of cool stuff, like That's Irritainment, and that weird southeast asian pop dance number, original skits performed by dj's, and the Church of the Subgenius
	1:42am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:41 Sounds very fishy to me
	1:42am LastWhiteRhino: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:41 Do you have any of Bud Styple's shows?
	1:45am coelacanth∅: i don't know. i mean, there are others who left fmu acrimoniously who's archives ARE available (one that i can name with positivity, but won't) so it's not just that.
	1:47am Blissland: Maybe I can upload them at some point. As always, of course, time. I have too much on my plate already. I shouldn't even be sitting here
	1:47am coelacanth∅: ↳ LastWhiteRhino @1:42 i remember him, so maybe...but unfortunately i recorded over many of the mic breaks when i needed more tape space and had no money.
	1:48am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @1:47 you should see what cassettes cost now. If you can even find them
	1:50am Blissland: I found a couple of sites that sell new cassettes, but I don't use them anymore. Maggie Hertz might
	1:52am ami ad: it'd cold here, going under covers.
	1:52am ami ad: Thank you, DJ.
	1:52am alanSixº: ↳ ami ad @1:52 gnite jeff - miss ya buddy we gotta get into trouble soon
	1:53am spodiodi: aloha, alanSixº and all! love the show's title tonight :)
	1:54am Blissland: ↳ spodiodi @1:53 greetings
	1:55am alanSixº: ↳ spodiodi @1:53 spodiodiodi
	1:55am spodiodi: and the image
	1:55am alanSixº: ↳ spodiodi @1:55 random library shot
	1:55am spodiodi: ↳ alanSixº @1:55 that's almost a yodel.
	1:56am spodiodi: ↳ alanSixº @1:55 it's hilarious
	1:56am coelacanth∅: hey spodi! 'night ami
	2:00am Blissland: Alan don't worry, nobody else remembers either
	2:02am Paulo AD: Urrch marathon...times to smash my card again lol
	2:03am Paulo AD: I just got my swag from 2022, no idea why I ordered a xl tshirt
	2:05am alanSixº: 201-209-9368
	2:05am Blissland: yay
	2:08am tardy vt valentine 💘: Hanne Hukkelberg : has several CDs / albums = “Little Things” (2005). I guess is her first & is a worthy album !
	2:08am Blissland: I'm going to drive my '89 300zx until it permanently dies
	2:11am coelacanth∅: i just yesterday noticed i've got 399k on my car. it's in pretty good shape but i need front tires. been driving on the spare for a few months now.
	2:12am Blissland: My odometer stopped at 150k some time before I owned it
	2:12am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:11 it really doesn't mean much at all. The condition can vary so widely
	2:13am Blissland: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:11 But yeah, I like to have optimal tires at all times. What kind of car is it?
	2:14am Paulo AD: ↳ coelacanth∅ @2:11 Just had to have a new alternator in mine, that was fun
	2:14am spodiodi: yØ coelacanthØ!
	2:16am Blissland: I wish him luck with the blood sucking
	2:17am LW Rhino: Sell blood, sweat, and tears = 3 income streams.
	2:18am Blissland: ↳ LW Rhino @2:17 what about all the other secretions and excretions
	2:19am LW Rhino: ↳ Blissland @2:18 That would throw him into a higher tax bracket.
	2:19am Blissland: ↳ LW Rhino @2:19 Gotta watch out for that
	2:20am alanSixº: next week we gotta get ask alan moving
	2:21am Paulo AD: ↳ LW Rhino @2:19 Half a liver, a kidney...rolling in it
	2:21am Blissland: ↳ alanSixº @2:20 There must be lots of people out there who need free unqualified advice
	2:27am LW Rhino: Valentine leftovers reheated....yay.
	2:32am LW Rhino: I still say Julie and Matt from Newark would be a superb match.
	2:33am alanSixº: ↳ LW Rhino @2:32 time will tell lwr
	2:36am Paulo AD: ↳ alanSixº @2:20 Its new slot, give it time :)
	2:38am alanSixº: ↳ Paulo AD @2:36 we'll see paolo!
	2:39am pizza bite: The Runaways were just a skosh before my blushing record buying youth. So it was early Joan Jett solo albums by the time I had awareness. I would see the Runaways albums in the bins & always put em back. I regret that now, all the fun listening I missed out on. Yet I think what scared me away the most was seeing early 80s videos of Big hair mode Lita Ford (for a punk snob, it wasn’t my vibe). Jump to the modern YouTube video era, finally seeing the mid-70s Runaways TV & in-studio & live appearances was a revelation. Lita Ford was smokin hot fire🔥🫠 and such a great lead 🎸guitarist (prior to her 80s Big hair regression). Sigh … nostalgia … 🤷‍♂️ 🫥🤷
	2:41am Hubig Pie: Evenin'. Hoping to hear some Frampton.
	2:41am Paulo AD: ↳ alanSixº @2:38 If i can get access to a vpn I'll call in next week :)
	2:41am alanSixº: ↳ pizza bite @2:39 haha thanx for sharing that pizza bite
	2:44am alanSixº: ↳ Hubig Pie @2:41 next week!!
	2:44am pizza bite: 🙇 ; Have you seen / watched any of those vintage mid 70s+ peak Runaways videos/footage … really quite sumpin !
	2:46am Listener Bop Monroe: greetings from 50mph gusts Tannersville 6DA and all. great show last nite! kisses to y'all.
	2:47am Paulo AD: Well I got so high the other day I broke through and met the aliens that control us haha
	2:47am spodiodi: love hearing the WEEN bed music
	2:47am Hubig Pie: ↳ pizza bite @2:44 I remember seeing them on Tom Snyder's late night show. They looked bored and angry. Cherry Bomb!
	2:48am spodiodi: long time WEEN nut here
	2:49am Hubig Pie: Chocolate mescaline was my favorite teenage psychedelic experience.
	2:50am Listener Bop Monroe: resident alien is back yay!
	2:50am alanSixº: ↳ Hubig Pie @2:49 that sounds nice
	2:50am Will thee Sound Guy: Thank you alanSix°!!!
	2:50am alanSixº: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @2:50 hey will!
	2:51am BH: I evaded direct impact from real world news on Wednesday by watching Heathers. So now I can make a "Winona at the end of Heathers" reference in regards to how Alan refers to Maggie preparing for her show
	2:52am spodiodi: ↳ Hubig Pie @2:49 i dove in head first to paper. that does sound good though (and i'm still curious)
	2:54am radioronan: Thanks, Alan..Cheers, hoodlums!
	2:55am spodiodi: thanks alanSixº. love catching you're show! especially love Hoboken Jacks pieces thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou🙏
	2:55am Listener Bop Monroe: fave heathers line: 'oh i don't know, they seem to have an open door policy on a**holes...' whips out big ass gun.
	2:56am Listener Bop Monroe: does NOT apply to DJM/CBR however!!
	2:56am Hubig Pie: ↳ spodiodi @2:52 It was easy to ingest and more mellow than purple microdot.
	2:56am alanSixº: i gotta rewatch heathers
	2:57am alanSixº: thanx for hangin everyone yous are the best
	2:57am Paulo AD: cheers al, great show as always
	2:57am Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): I've haven't done drugs for over a decade. I don't think there's mescaline in Australia. I have only ever done weed. The only other drug that I've seen was crystal meth. I had a friend who had some meth and showed it to me. She had been paid in cash, meth, and weed, for some amateur audio engineering work. She refused to flush the meth down the toilet and her behaviour/mental illness had gotten worse around that time. We stopped being friends.
	2:58am pizza bite: I gotta find/watch that Tom Snyder session/interview. Funny - I recall watching late era Snyder (he was so annoying back then, but NOW - what I wouldn’t give to have sumpin like that back on broadcast!). It least it had juice and wasn’t so scripted & DOA. Twas a bit before my time to have clear recollections. Did Tom S. have any of the punk rockers at the time of late 70s etc era on his late night show ? Devo , the Clash ? Etc. What abt the NY Dolls ? Iggy ? Stooges ?
	2:58am spodiodi: ↳ Hubig Pie @2:56 more mellow eventually was what i wanted, and liked fungus better 🍄
	2:59am Listener Bop Monroe: this is nice. seems to be more real shrooms out here now in NYS. at least among the musicians i hang with. B safe all! til next week.
	2:59am spodiodi: todaay i got to do some OCREVUS for a few hours again
	2:59am pizza bite: Blondie , Ramones , Talking Heads ?
	3:00am spodiodi: yes on sixº of WEEN
