	6:56am Brian D: ↳ Strandlund @6:54 Hey Strand.
	⚡ 6:58am Michael of Cologne: Good afternoon, Brian, from Cologne.
	7:00am fred: ↳ Brian D @6:50 A collision with a building, all too common for birds. That reminded me of the death of Leland Palmer (the owls are not what they seem)
	7:00am danny san: please stop eating animals
	7:01am Brian D: ↳ Michael of Cologne @6:58 Good day, Michael.
	7:02am fred: ↳ danny san @7:00 I'd say "eat the rich" instead, but there are not enough of them
	7:02am rich in angleton: good morning Brian! hello to everybody in radio land! and I'm with you danny san!
	7:02am Brian D: ↳ fred @7:02 Or too many, depending on the context.
	7:03am Brian D: ↳ rich in angleton @7:02 RICH!!!!
	7:03am fred: ↳ Brian D @7:03 Clarification: I didn't mean this "rich"
	7:04am Bort Simpson: Beginning of the year I made a conscious decision to not read any news whatsoever (like there was even a presidential election held in my country and I've no idea of the results). So this year listening to Currents is always a bit of a trip in this regard, like taking a lil' raft on bigger waves lol
	7:04am Brian D: ↳ fred @7:03 Add a pinch of salt, though, and he's quite tasty.
	7:06am Brian D: ↳ Bort Simpson @7:04 Kinda the goal anyway, Bort.
	7:06am fred: ↳ Song: "Wind Coda" by "Lou Reed" This reminds me of Quintron's Weather Warlock
	⚡ 7:06am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Brian D @6:53 goes something like this... bill cosby(!) is at playboy mansion and walks up to joe namath and says, "where's hugh i want to speak with him" namath nervously replies" he;'s on the second floor" and turns away, so bill cosby goes to second floor and walks up to james caan and says " have you seen hugh?" caan looks around nervously and says" he's up in the penthouse" so bill cosby goes up to penthouse, opens the door and sees hugh hefner fucking dennis weaver and says "hey hugh, get off of mcloud" ...phew... something like that...
	7:07am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:06 BOOM!
	7:08am TDK60: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:56 Good morning tom tom. Has this been challenged by others besides you? Anyway, when I have time I'll go back and try to listen more closely. (That Democracy Now segment was on Feb. 16.)
	7:08am dday: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:06 rimshot
	⚡ 7:09am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ dday @7:08 so to speak...
	7:11am Robm: ↳ dday @7:08 dday sounds like a joke you would tell:)
	7:12am fred: @Brian: do you know your co-host schedule?
	⚡ 7:13am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ TDK60 @7:08 the sound clip was played on a couple of episodes at least, it turns out that mrs. currents found the same discrepancy and was digging into it
	7:14am Brian D: ↳ fred @7:12 I do. And I'm excited about it. Not sure if we can announce yet...
	7:15am mespr: ↳ danny san @7:00 Owls eat our furry friends that eat our trash and crawl through our walls. I've never eaten a bird of prey or a rat, I've settled for oysters when lettuce is not enough.
	⚡ 7:16am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ TDK60 @7:08 there was an interview with a doctor who had been in gaza that mentioned hind was on phone for three hours but didn't elaborate further
	7:20am egould: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:06 Hahaha!
	7:21am Krys O.: ↳ Brian D @7:14 Hi, Brian. I saw Ken mention that it can be made public. Oh, and HI!
	7:21am danny san: Birds are good fortune so i attract as many as i can out here in nowhere ks. ,,, they are amazing ,, we are missing millions of species of migratory birds now since Fukushima meltdown 3-3-2011 extinction event
	7:22am listener 126464: Thank you for your show, Brian D.
	7:24am Brian D: ↳ Krys O. @7:21 Hi Krys O! Well, in that case, Jeremiah and Matty are MCing for me and I'm MCing for Fox and Carol!
	7:25am egould: ↳ Song: "Medicine" by "Mali Velasquez" This got to the appropriate level of noisy. Nice.
	7:26am Krys O.: I recently watched Winged Migration, the documentary from 2001 about bird migration. It was incredible and there was music by Robert Wyatt and Nick Cave. It reminded me of my encounter with an owl last year. I had to jump out of the way of a barred owl that had just eliminated a squirrel. I was in the way of its exit route. This happened on a suburban street around the corner from where I live. We have a lot of red tailed hawks and turkey vultures around. That was my first owl spotting.
	7:26am dday: OK..I know we all care about so much all around us.It's time to do so for one of our own before it is too late. Please read Hypedose's last post here. It is NOT good. www.gofundme.com... After doing so,please find the time to contact this person who is in charge of the Colorado Dept.of Local Affairs, and politely of course & try to help before it is too late. Arapahoe County Regional Manager - todd.leopold@state.co.us / 303-916-1722 This is a public official & this info is readily available on line at The Colorado Dept. of Local Affairs website under "regional managers' so I am not violating anyone's personal privacy by posting this info publicly. Do what you can. I know many have one a lot for him, just by way of donating cash already but things aren't looking good Thanks
	7:27am Brian D: ↳ Krys O. @7:26 I've wanted to see Winged Migration... Thanks for the reminder.
	7:28am Anna V: Such a wonderful show! Helping us to get breakfast going without too much grumpiness!
	7:29am dday: ↳ Robm @7:11 Well thank you :)
	7:29am Krys O.: ↳ Brian D @7:27 If you have the Watch TCM app, it's available until February 28th.
	⚡ 7:29am tom tom the pipers son: images of global capitalsm 19 c and 20th /21st c gursky www.soundoflife.com... muybridge emuseum.as.miami.edu...
	7:30am danny san: ,,,good show ,,, nice music ,,, for contemplating the impact the money printers have had on the crying Earth Mother and the eight million species ..
	⚡ 7:32am NotARealDoctor in Norfolk: Good morning from the dog park. We are riding the current and chasing the ball in the chilly fog today
	7:33am Robm: ↳ dday @7:29 your welcome
	7:35am Matt en Queens: Morning Brian and all! Sounding great
	7:41am mespr: I find myself in nowhere Arizona, in the northern desert. I feed the wild birds everyday. Birdwatchers visit regularly we have a few species, that an Audubon lady said are indigenous to this small corner of the world. This show is as soothing as sitting aside while the birds go about their business.
	⚡ 7:44am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ dday @7:26 is todd leopold familiar with ted's case, does he know the hotel he's in now?
	7:46am dday: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:44 I have contacted ted leopold directly by email as of this morning. Power in numbers I hope might get a positive result. I have never met Ted but I have been doing all I can to help. What's happening to him should not happen to anyone Thanks
	7:47am dday: ↳ dday @7:46 todd leopold
	7:48am dday: ↳ dday @7:46 Also Ted (HD) has all of the info I have gathered as well. I've sent him emails each time I get anything that I hope might help
	7:51am Brian D: ↳ dday @7:48 Thanks for posting this, dday.
	7:52am dday: ↳ Brian D @7:51 No problem Brian we have to walk the walk if we want to get anything done. The system is designed to be cumbersome but persistence is key.
	7:56am fred: ↳ dday @7:52 You're right. Maybe those hurdles make any voice that gets through more influential. Whether that's good can be debated another day (I won't contact the guy, I don't have standing)
	7:57am dday: ↳ fred @7:56 We're all human beings..we all have standing
	7:57am radioronan: Good morning, Brian ..Good morning, fellow listeners.. Thanks for public official's contact info on behalf of hyperdose's case, @dday
	7:58am fred: ↳ dday @7:57 I'm no human being, I'm French (meaning my nationality could backfire in several ways)
	7:59am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:29 Wow.
	7:59am dday: ↳ fred @7:58 Chuckling :) Not with me Fred :)
	7:59am Brian D: ↳ NotARealDoctor in Norfolk @7:32 I'm there in spirit with the Currents Canine Contingent.
	⚡ 8:00am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Brian D @7:59 thought it was a juxtaposition
	8:01am fred: ↳ dday @7:59 Killdozer!!!
	8:01am dday: ↳ Song: "I Am ... I Said" by "Killdozer" I wonder if Clint Eastwood was channeling Neil's line "not even the chair" when he did his famous chair thing on stage
	8:02am TDK60: Yes, I've read that about 120 journalists have died in Gaza recently.
	8:02am Brian D: ↳ dday @8:01 Ha! And here I thought that was the low point in US political discourse. Silly me.
	8:02am Brian D: ↳ TDK60 @8:02 Sadly, correct.
	8:03am Fragonard: Great lyrics about chairs
	8:04am fred: ↳ dday @7:59 More seriously, when my fave venue was threatened, they got a lot of support from international musicians. The reaction was "why don't these foreign countries fund it then?".
	8:06am dday: ↳ fred @8:04 I hear ya. I laways say pick your battles. There's much I know I can do nothing about so I try to select a cause I can deal with more directly & lock in until I get a result. I don't give up
	⚡ 8:06am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Brian D @8:02 the wikileaks video of the u.s. helicopter murdering iraqi civilians included 2 reuters employees
	8:07am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:06 It did.
	8:07am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:06 But Assange is the "traitor."
	8:09am fred: ↳ dday @8:06 I know, and with all you have to deal with, your selectivity has a well tuned moral compass. I think the more local the better, though this hour might not be the best time to appeal to CO listeners
	8:09am dday: ↳ Brian D @8:07 Truths people don't want to see & hear are the "traitors' to many. We have a long history of looking the other way
	8:09am TDK60: The Australian parliament just passed a motion calling for Assange's release.
	8:10am Brian D: ↳ dday @8:09 Indeed we do.
	8:10am dday: ↳ fred @8:09 If I was more local to CO (2500 miles away) I'd be in lawyers offices getting results.
	⚡ 8:13am tom tom the pipers son: A.R.A.B. ....?
	⚡ 8:14am tom tom the pipers son: are afghanis racially arab...anyway
	8:16am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:13 I know. Cringeworthy. And no, not Arabs.
	⚡ 8:16am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:14 in fact catagorized as caucasian
	⚡ 8:22am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:16 actually that's for afghan/ americans
	⚡ 8:23am tom tom the pipers son: Afghanistan is a multiethnic and mostly tribal society. The population of the country consists of numerous ethnolinguistic groups: mainly the Pashtun, Tajik, Hazara, and Uzbek and minorities of Aimaq, Turkmen, Baloch, Pashai, Nuristani, Gujjar, Brahui, Qizilbash, Pamiri, Kyrgyz, Sadat, and others.
	8:28am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:23 Well, the Brits have a history with "misclassification."
	8:29am dday: Jury finds NRA, Wayne LaPierre liable in civil corruption case www.npr.org...
	8:30am Brian D: ↳ dday @8:29 Well, that's nice.
	⚡ 8:31am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Brian D @8:28 internally with the "class"- ification
	8:31am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:31 Quite.
	⚡ 8:35am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ dday @7:26 I still can't believe how much crap He's been dealing with, It's crazy how quickly things have gone down hill.
	8:36am dday: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @8:35 Yes. and when you are living it it is very overwhelming (and expensive) to deal with govt. agencies.
	⚡ 8:39am tom tom the pipers son: afghanistan in the 60's allthatsinteresting.com...
	8:42am von schlep: Omni Bus
	⚡ 8:42am tom tom the pipers son: The 1960s and 1970s in particular are known as Kabul's golden era, when the city was a blend of both modern and traditional. These were times when women paired miniskirts and headscarves, people enjoyed personal freedoms, and hippies and travelers flocked to the capital from around the world.
	8:44am fred: ARGH!! I tried to book tickets for coming shows and was denied because I don't have a cell phone (aka Personal Surveillance Device). First world problems, but still infuriating, especially with Amirtha Kidambi and Angel Bat Dawid playing
	⚡ 8:44am herb.nyc: Oh, Brian mentioned Evan FD. In latter recentest show he played the gap band. And told us how they got their name, I believe. Anyone else hear? And can confirm the derivation? (Or should I go to wiki? Or archives) Thx Brian, these are some punch in da gut photos
	8:47am dday: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:42 two words: religious fanaticism
	⚡ 8:50am herb.nyc: ↳ Song: "Print the Legend" by "The Paranoid Style" wfmu has played some great new songs of theirs. Paranoid Style played union hall in bklyn, 2017(18?). Great show, awful sound system. I spoke to singer Elizabeth after and bought a tee. She gave me her email and her userid is thinlizzy. Haha
	8:50am fred: ↳ dday @8:47 There's also an ethnic side to it. Religion can be a convenient excuse to impose a group's rule. European history provides many examples
	⚡ 8:50am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ dday @8:47 and this The dominant historical narrative surrounding US policy and actions during the Soviet-Afghan War (1979-1989) maintains that the US government launched its extensive covert operation in support of the Mujahedin (Arabic for those who wage jihad, or holy war) against the Soviet army in response to the Soviet Union's ...
	8:52am Brian D: ↳ herb.nyc @8:44 Hey Herb. Yeah. Hope not too rough for first thing,
	8:52am McGroovey: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:50 Wasn't the cold war fun? And isn't it getting fun again?
	8:53am listener 126464: Thanks, Brian.
	⚡ 8:53am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ McGroovey @8:52 seems a bit warm this time
	8:54am dday: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:50 Since I have first hand connection to 9/11, I can tell you had the U.S. Govt. just antyed up a few million dollars to build and support education in Afghanistan after the Soviet-Afghan War, we might never had had to deal with 9/11 & it's 20+ year war that follwed. See the story of real Texas Congressman Charlie Wilson
	⚡ 8:54am tom tom the pipers son: thanks brian..have a good week...
	8:54am fred: ↳ Song: "Somos Sur con Shadia Mansour" by "Ana Tijoux" I'd love to see her live, but she's too big now
	8:55am von schlep: The Paranoid Style : I’m in L-U-V with this vocalists style and sound ! Confessional upfront No-BS Voice. - ¿name to this front woman’s voice?
	8:56am Brian D: Thank you all. Gotta jet. Have a great week and stay safe.
	8:56am TDK60: Thanks for the show, Brian.
	⚡ 8:56am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ dday @8:54 yes the name certainly rings a bell ...c. wilson's war
	8:56am Bill in W.O.: ↳ von schlep @8:55 Elizabeth Nelson en.wikipedia.org... also an accomplished music writer
	8:56am rich in angleton: thanks so much Brian! great show! have a great week everybody!
	8:56am dday: A protest song for the new age from AZ friends of mine: www.youtube.com...
	8:57am dday: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:56 a movie. Yes..but the real story can be seen here www.npr.org...
	⚡ 8:57am herb.nyc: ↳ von schlep @8:55 I’m v sure her name is Elizabeth Nelson. I sometimes see her very cleverly written tweets. (I have name problems, as I’m getting old. No joke- I could not recall osama bin laden name!! I had to look it up) — thx, bill in w.o.
	⚡ 8:57am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ dday @8:57 thx
	8:59am JohnBuck: it is haunting how much paranoid styles Elizabeth Nelson sounds like Christine Lavin
	⚡ 9:00am Will thee Sound Guy: Thank you Brian D!!!

	6:56am Brian D: ↳ Strandlund @6:54 Hey Strand.
	⚡ 6:58am Michael of Cologne: Good afternoon, Brian, from Cologne.
	7:00am fred: ↳ Brian D @6:50 A collision with a building, all too common for birds. That reminded me of the death of Leland Palmer (the owls are not what they seem)
	7:00am danny san: please stop eating animals
	7:01am Brian D: ↳ Michael of Cologne @6:58 Good day, Michael.
	7:02am fred: ↳ danny san @7:00 I'd say "eat the rich" instead, but there are not enough of them

	7:03am fred: ↳ Brian D @7:03 Clarification: I didn't mean this "rich"
	7:04am Bort Simpson: Beginning of the year I made a conscious decision to not read any news whatsoever (like there was even a presidential election held in my country and I've no idea of the results). So this year listening to Currents is always a bit of a trip in this regard, like taking a lil' raft on bigger waves lol
	7:04am Brian D: ↳ fred @7:03 Add a pinch of salt, though, and he's quite tasty.
	7:06am Brian D: ↳ Bort Simpson @7:04 Kinda the goal anyway, Bort.
	7:06am fred: ↳ Song: "Wind Coda" by "Lou Reed" This reminds me of Quintron's Weather Warlock
	⚡ 7:06am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Brian D @6:53 goes something like this... bill cosby(!) is at playboy mansion and walks up to joe namath and says, "where's hugh i want to speak with him" namath nervously replies" he;'s on the second floor" and turns away, so bill cosby goes to second floor and walks up to james caan and says " have you seen hugh?" caan looks around nervously and says" he's up in the penthouse" so bill cosby goes up to penthouse, opens the door and sees hugh hefner fucking dennis weaver and says "hey hugh, get off of mcloud" ...phew... something like that...
	7:07am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:06 BOOM!
	7:08am TDK60: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:56 Good morning tom tom. Has this been challenged by others besides you? Anyway, when I have time I'll go back and try to listen more closely. (That Democracy Now segment was on Feb. 16.)
	7:08am dday: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:06 rimshot
	⚡ 7:09am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ dday @7:08 so to speak...
	7:11am Robm: ↳ dday @7:08 dday sounds like a joke you would tell:)
	7:12am fred: @Brian: do you know your co-host schedule?
	⚡ 7:13am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ TDK60 @7:08 the sound clip was played on a couple of episodes at least, it turns out that mrs. currents found the same discrepancy and was digging into it
	7:14am Brian D: ↳ fred @7:12 I do. And I'm excited about it. Not sure if we can announce yet...
	7:15am mespr: ↳ danny san @7:00 Owls eat our furry friends that eat our trash and crawl through our walls. I've never eaten a bird of prey or a rat, I've settled for oysters when lettuce is not enough.
	⚡ 7:16am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ TDK60 @7:08 there was an interview with a doctor who had been in gaza that mentioned hind was on phone for three hours but didn't elaborate further
	7:20am egould: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:06 Hahaha!
	7:21am Krys O.: ↳ Brian D @7:14 Hi, Brian. I saw Ken mention that it can be made public. Oh, and HI!
	7:21am danny san: Birds are good fortune so i attract as many as i can out here in nowhere ks. ,,, they are amazing ,, we are missing millions of species of migratory birds now since Fukushima meltdown 3-3-2011 extinction event
	7:22am listener 126464: Thank you for your show, Brian D.
	7:24am Brian D: ↳ Krys O. @7:21 Hi Krys O! Well, in that case, Jeremiah and Matty are MCing for me and I'm MCing for Fox and Carol!
	7:25am egould: ↳ Song: "Medicine" by "Mali Velasquez" This got to the appropriate level of noisy. Nice.
	7:26am Krys O.: I recently watched Winged Migration, the documentary from 2001 about bird migration. It was incredible and there was music by Robert Wyatt and Nick Cave. It reminded me of my encounter with an owl last year. I had to jump out of the way of a barred owl that had just eliminated a squirrel. I was in the way of its exit route. This happened on a suburban street around the corner from where I live. We have a lot of red tailed hawks and turkey vultures around. That was my first owl spotting.
	7:26am dday: OK..I know we all care about so much all around us.It's time to do so for one of our own before it is too late. Please read Hypedose's last post here. It is NOT good. www.gofundme.com... After doing so,please find the time to contact this person who is in charge of the Colorado Dept.of Local Affairs, and politely of course & try to help before it is too late. Arapahoe County Regional Manager - todd.leopold@state.co.us / 303-916-1722 This is a public official & this info is readily available on line at The Colorado Dept. of Local Affairs website under "regional managers' so I am not violating anyone's personal privacy by posting this info publicly. Do what you can. I know many have one a lot for him, just by way of donating cash already but things aren't looking good Thanks
	7:27am Brian D: ↳ Krys O. @7:26 I've wanted to see Winged Migration... Thanks for the reminder.
	7:28am Anna V: Such a wonderful show! Helping us to get breakfast going without too much grumpiness!
	7:29am dday: ↳ Robm @7:11 Well thank you :)
	7:29am Krys O.: ↳ Brian D @7:27 If you have the Watch TCM app, it's available until February 28th.

	7:33am Robm: ↳ dday @7:29 your welcome
	7:35am Matt en Queens: Morning Brian and all! Sounding great
	7:41am mespr: I find myself in nowhere Arizona, in the northern desert. I feed the wild birds everyday. Birdwatchers visit regularly we have a few species, that an Audubon lady said are indigenous to this small corner of the world. This show is as soothing as sitting aside while the birds go about their business.
	⚡ 7:44am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ dday @7:26 is todd leopold familiar with ted's case, does he know the hotel he's in now?
	7:46am dday: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:44 I have contacted ted leopold directly by email as of this morning. Power in numbers I hope might get a positive result. I have never met Ted but I have been doing all I can to help. What's happening to him should not happen to anyone Thanks
	7:47am dday: ↳ dday @7:46 todd leopold
	7:48am dday: ↳ dday @7:46 Also Ted (HD) has all of the info I have gathered as well. I've sent him emails each time I get anything that I hope might help
	7:51am Brian D: ↳ dday @7:48 Thanks for posting this, dday.
	7:52am dday: ↳ Brian D @7:51 No problem Brian we have to walk the walk if we want to get anything done. The system is designed to be cumbersome but persistence is key.
	7:56am fred: ↳ dday @7:52 You're right. Maybe those hurdles make any voice that gets through more influential. Whether that's good can be debated another day (I won't contact the guy, I don't have standing)
	7:57am dday: ↳ fred @7:56 We're all human beings..we all have standing
	7:57am radioronan: Good morning, Brian ..Good morning, fellow listeners.. Thanks for public official's contact info on behalf of hyperdose's case, @dday
	7:58am fred: ↳ dday @7:57 I'm no human being, I'm French (meaning my nationality could backfire in several ways)

	⚡ 8:00am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Brian D @7:59 thought it was a juxtaposition
	8:01am fred: ↳ dday @7:59 Killdozer!!!
	8:01am dday: ↳ Song: "I Am ... I Said" by "Killdozer" I wonder if Clint Eastwood was channeling Neil's line "not even the chair" when he did his famous chair thing on stage
	8:02am TDK60: Yes, I've read that about 120 journalists have died in Gaza recently.
	8:02am Brian D: ↳ dday @8:01 Ha! And here I thought that was the low point in US political discourse. Silly me.
	8:02am Brian D: ↳ TDK60 @8:02 Sadly, correct.
	8:03am Fragonard: Great lyrics about chairs
	8:04am fred: ↳ dday @7:59 More seriously, when my fave venue was threatened, they got a lot of support from international musicians. The reaction was "why don't these foreign countries fund it then?".
	8:06am dday: ↳ fred @8:04 I hear ya. I laways say pick your battles. There's much I know I can do nothing about so I try to select a cause I can deal with more directly & lock in until I get a result. I don't give up
	⚡ 8:06am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Brian D @8:02 the wikileaks video of the u.s. helicopter murdering iraqi civilians included 2 reuters employees
	8:07am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:06 It did.
	8:07am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:06 But Assange is the "traitor."
	8:09am fred: ↳ dday @8:06 I know, and with all you have to deal with, your selectivity has a well tuned moral compass. I think the more local the better, though this hour might not be the best time to appeal to CO listeners
	8:09am dday: ↳ Brian D @8:07 Truths people don't want to see & hear are the "traitors' to many. We have a long history of looking the other way
	8:09am TDK60: The Australian parliament just passed a motion calling for Assange's release.
	8:10am Brian D: ↳ dday @8:09 Indeed we do.
	8:10am dday: ↳ fred @8:09 If I was more local to CO (2500 miles away) I'd be in lawyers offices getting results.
	⚡ 8:13am tom tom the pipers son: A.R.A.B. ....?
	⚡ 8:14am tom tom the pipers son: are afghanis racially arab...anyway
	8:16am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:13 I know. Cringeworthy. And no, not Arabs.
	⚡ 8:16am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:14 in fact catagorized as caucasian
	⚡ 8:22am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:16 actually that's for afghan/ americans
	⚡ 8:23am tom tom the pipers son: Afghanistan is a multiethnic and mostly tribal society. The population of the country consists of numerous ethnolinguistic groups: mainly the Pashtun, Tajik, Hazara, and Uzbek and minorities of Aimaq, Turkmen, Baloch, Pashai, Nuristani, Gujjar, Brahui, Qizilbash, Pamiri, Kyrgyz, Sadat, and others.
	8:28am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:23 Well, the Brits have a history with "misclassification."
	8:29am dday: Jury finds NRA, Wayne LaPierre liable in civil corruption case www.npr.org...

	8:36am dday: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @8:35 Yes. and when you are living it it is very overwhelming (and expensive) to deal with govt. agencies.
	⚡ 8:39am tom tom the pipers son: afghanistan in the 60's allthatsinteresting.com...
	8:42am von schlep: Omni Bus
	⚡ 8:42am tom tom the pipers son: The 1960s and 1970s in particular are known as Kabul's golden era, when the city was a blend of both modern and traditional. These were times when women paired miniskirts and headscarves, people enjoyed personal freedoms, and hippies and travelers flocked to the capital from around the world.
	8:44am fred: ARGH!! I tried to book tickets for coming shows and was denied because I don't have a cell phone (aka Personal Surveillance Device). First world problems, but still infuriating, especially with Amirtha Kidambi and Angel Bat Dawid playing
	⚡ 8:44am herb.nyc: Oh, Brian mentioned Evan FD. In latter recentest show he played the gap band. And told us how they got their name, I believe. Anyone else hear? And can confirm the derivation? (Or should I go to wiki? Or archives) Thx Brian, these are some punch in da gut photos
	8:47am dday: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:42 two words: religious fanaticism
	⚡ 8:50am herb.nyc: ↳ Song: "Print the Legend" by "The Paranoid Style" wfmu has played some great new songs of theirs. Paranoid Style played union hall in bklyn, 2017(18?). Great show, awful sound system. I spoke to singer Elizabeth after and bought a tee. She gave me her email and her userid is thinlizzy. Haha
	8:50am fred: ↳ dday @8:47 There's also an ethnic side to it. Religion can be a convenient excuse to impose a group's rule. European history provides many examples
	⚡ 8:50am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ dday @8:47 and this The dominant historical narrative surrounding US policy and actions during the Soviet-Afghan War (1979-1989) maintains that the US government launched its extensive covert operation in support of the Mujahedin (Arabic for those who wage jihad, or holy war) against the Soviet army in response to the Soviet Union's ...
	8:52am Brian D: ↳ herb.nyc @8:44 Hey Herb. Yeah. Hope not too rough for first thing,
	8:52am McGroovey: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:50 Wasn't the cold war fun? And isn't it getting fun again?
	8:53am listener 126464: Thanks, Brian.
	⚡ 8:53am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ McGroovey @8:52 seems a bit warm this time
	8:54am dday: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:50 Since I have first hand connection to 9/11, I can tell you had the U.S. Govt. just antyed up a few million dollars to build and support education in Afghanistan after the Soviet-Afghan War, we might never had had to deal with 9/11 & it's 20+ year war that follwed. See the story of real Texas Congressman Charlie Wilson
	⚡ 8:54am tom tom the pipers son: thanks brian..have a good week...
	8:54am fred: ↳ Song: "Somos Sur con Shadia Mansour" by "Ana Tijoux" I'd love to see her live, but she's too big now
	8:55am von schlep: The Paranoid Style : I’m in L-U-V with this vocalists style and sound ! Confessional upfront No-BS Voice. - ¿name to this front woman’s voice?

	8:56am TDK60: Thanks for the show, Brian.
	⚡ 8:56am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ dday @8:54 yes the name certainly rings a bell ...c. wilson's war
	8:56am Bill in W.O.: ↳ von schlep @8:55 Elizabeth Nelson en.wikipedia.org... also an accomplished music writer
	8:56am rich in angleton: thanks so much Brian! great show! have a great week everybody!

	8:57am dday: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @8:56 a movie. Yes..but the real story can be seen here www.npr.org...
	⚡ 8:57am herb.nyc: ↳ von schlep @8:55 I’m v sure her name is Elizabeth Nelson. I sometimes see her very cleverly written tweets. (I have name problems, as I’m getting old. No joke- I could not recall osama bin laden name!! I had to look it up) — thx, bill in w.o.
	⚡ 8:57am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ dday @8:57 thx
	8:59am JohnBuck: it is haunting how much paranoid styles Elizabeth Nelson sounds like Christine Lavin
