	9:09pm Therese: Hi Folks! Thanks for checking in!
	9:11pm steveo: Ohhhh from a bottle of wine!
	9:11pm Listener Bop Monroe: greetings from chilly Tannersville NY DJT and all. 'now go away or i shall taunt you a sec-ond time.'
	9:12pm brycepunk1: Listen, I need this, okay? Every day is same thing. My wife, my kids. Sure, I get golf on Sundays. I fucking HATE golf.
	9:13pm Rick A: Good Evening Therese and All, Hearing Mr. Dwight on WFMU is like a fresh wind blowing through the window.
	9:14pm steveo: SAME: "Until I saw your city lights, honey, I was blind"
	9:15pm steveo: Think you for allowing me to really pay attention to this song for the first time
	9:15pm Therese: You are all speaking my language and I love it!
	9:15pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Song: "Honky Cat" by "Elton John" More than ok with Sir Elton (and Bernie).
	9:17pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Phenomenal Cat" by "The Kinks" Per chance, prompted by the FMU Bad Animals Cat Adoption Party this Saturday?
	9:18pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Alley Cats" by "Hot Chip" And this one too.
	9:18pm steveo: Hey there, Rick
	9:18pm Drunken Creep: One of the many greats from The Kinks! Cannes Sardinia, Kathmandu, classic
	9:18pm PMD: I guess this is for the weekend…
	9:18pm ultradamno: Alley Cats' "Just An Alley Cat" next?
	9:18pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: Good evening to Therese and all you fine members of the Therese Nation. Or as ChatGPT would say, let's delve into the tapestry of this Wednesday evening, shall we?
	9:20pm Listener Bop Monroe: meow. it's 9:20 somewhere.
	9:21pm Dan S: ↳ Bob in DC and/or Virginia @9:18 Did ChatGPT actually say that, or just claim the credit for something you wrote? :)
	9:21pm Rick A: ↳ steveo @9:18 Hi Steveo, I hope you, Poppy and the kids are well.
	9:26pm Rick A: ↳ Song: "The Love Cats" by "The Cure" We adopted one of our cats through Bad Animals Kitty Corner segment. She is the most frenzied cat with whom I have ever lived. However, now she's chilling on her scratch pad, somewhat unnerved by the storm outside. We're happy that we can provide her a sanctuary from the stormy streets.
	9:27pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "The Love Cats" by "The Cure" On a feline flow here.
	9:27pm Cheryl The Nerd: Greetings fellow nerds...
	9:27pm tracy in LA: everybody wants to be a cat
	9:28pm steveo: Thanks Rick do you have 2 Chloe's now then?
	9:29pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Rick A @9:26 Our little Bombay kitty is also nervous right now, rescued from Sean Casey Animal Rescue in our neighborhood.
	9:31pm Dan S: What could be next? "Year of the Cat" or "What's New, Pussycat." (I'm kidding - mostly.)
	9:32pm Cheryl The Nerd: Cat Dance by Beema Duma
	9:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: I hope Clay Pigeon is listening. ❤️
	9:34pm Rick A: ↳ steveo @9:28 If you mean the cat, how do you know that her original name was Chloe? That's uncanny. No, having two Chloes was not feasible, so we renamed Chloe the kitty, Connie the kitty. It sounds similar at least. She's our Jersey girl. We drove to Hoboken to pick her up a little over a year ago.
	9:35pm su: this whole sound track is great, don't hear it nearly enough
	9:35pm Harry Corvair: Oh yeah. This. Cat People (Putting Out Fire) by David Bowie (Cat People (Original Soundtrack))
	9:36pm Therese: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @9:33 Oh, yes. Let's al raise a glass to Romulus Pigeon...
	9:36pm steveo: Haha. I saw something on the comment boards about it.. I hope you all are well, as well 🙂
	9:36pm laurapanic: I'd like to shout out Meow the Jewels at this point.
	9:36pm Therese: ↳ Therese @9:36 all, that is.
	9:37pm Therese: and to Hennessey, the best shop cat that ever was.
	9:38pm Rick A: ↳ Song: "Cat People (Putting Out Fire)" by "David Bowie" I saw the film when it first came out when I was sixteen. It kind of blew my mind. I'm not sure it was very good, though the shear audacity of it kind of knocked me out. I saw it again at BAM a few years ago and it is still gloriously unhinged. The production design is still striking. It was definitely a departure for Paul Schrader, one of my favorite filmmakers.
	9:38pm Dan S: I've been listening to and commenting on WFMU a bit too much today. I have an excuse; at home with a cold and can't do much else. Still, if this becomes habitual I'll be a bit worried. Is there a 12-step program for WFMU addiction? Anyway, I'll be signing off soon. Getting tired.
	9:39pm Listener Bop Monroe: ↳ Song: "Cat People (Putting Out Fire)" by "David Bowie" don't stick your arm near the panther cage.
	9:40pm Stevel: ↳ Song: "Cat People (Putting Out Fire)" by "David Bowie" Drench me in your synth, oh 80s wonder song.
	9:40pm Rick A: ↳ Therese @9:36 Yes, Romulus's passing is very sad. Clay and Kirsten loved him so much. As Clay would say, Romulus always remembered on Therese's show.
	9:40pm Marie in Chicago: Really enjoying this set. Hi Therese, hi All.
	9:41pm Listener Bop Monroe: strong first set DJT! Thnx!
	9:43pm Listener Bop Monroe: eco friendly, not ego friendly
	9:43pm laurapanic: I think most of the steps are just "listen to more WFMU cuz it makes us happy"
	9:44pm Dan S: ↳ laurapanic @9:43 OK, sounds good.
	9:44pm Dano59: Joni Mitchell's "Man from Mars" and Old 97's'ses "Murder or a Heart Attack" = both about lost cats
	9:46pm Ken From Hyde Park: 10 Am I listening to WFMU too much? 20 Keep listening to make sure. 30 goto 10
	9:48pm steveo: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @9:46 SYNTAX ERROR, Line 10: NO SUCH OPERATOR: "Am"
	9:48pm Karl: ↳ Song: "The Love Cats" by "The Cure" Love love love
	9:51pm Listener Bop Monroe: go margs
	9:53pm PigeonsAndRust: My aunt's bird makes liquidy water noises when he wants his water bowl refilled.
	9:53pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Therese @9:36 Pouring one out!
	9:54pm Dano59: Go-Go, Kitty
	9:54pm Marie in Chicago: I think I have come to prefer cats. I'm reading memoir by Caleb Carr (recently deceased) about his life and mostly his life with this half-wild Siberian rescue cat. It's called My Beloved Monster. I recommend it @) It's full of info about cats as well as his story. My cat, Willy, is like a small dog in some ways.
	9:55pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: @Ken From Hyde Park "Goto is considered harmful"
	10:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: Unfortunately, I seem to have forgotten most of what I learned about BASIC programming.
	10:01pm Rick A: ↳ Song: "Sugar Water" by "Cibo Matto" I bought this album when it came out in 1997. I've seen them live three times over the years. They tend to put on energetic shows. This album evokes the sounds of the East Village in the late 90s since that is where I was living at the time. I think they were living around there too.
	10:01pm San Pedro Girl: Good evening, Therese and everyone.
	10:02pm Therese: ↳ Rick A @10:01 Same, Rick A!
	10:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: <3 kiggykatz <3
	10:03pm Roberto: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:02 What? Where?
	10:04pm greg g: Sounding purrfect Therese
	10:04pm Rick A: I first saw Cibo Matto at a club called Tramps in Chelsea in the spring of 1997. I saw a lot of shows there until it closed in the fall of 1999. In fact, I saw the last show there.
	10:05pm Tuned Out: @Rick A did you by chance get your copy at Adult Crash, as I did?
	10:05pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Sugar Water" by "Cibo Matto" Hi Therese and company! I liked beef jerky a lot!
	10:06pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Song: "Spell It Out" by "Ohmme" I haven't heard this in a minute. Such an amazing album.
	10:06pm Dano59: signing off ... catch up with you cats later / or in the archives
	10:07pm Rick A: ↳ Tuned Out @10:05 I bought it on CD, not vinyl. I used to be able to say where I bought all of my CDs, though volume and age have gotten the best of me. I might have bought it at Stooz on, I think, East 7th near Ave. A. I later met Stew at a WFMU record fair, telling him I was a regular at his tiny store which included a cat.
	10:09pm Tuned Out: Stooz was another goodie
	10:11pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ San Pedro Girl @10:01 Greetings, SPG!
	10:11pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @10:11 Hi Chris!
	10:11pm Therese: ↳ Rick A @10:07 I played that track from my own CD copy, which i most probably finagled from the BMG music club for $0.01. Did I eventually fullfill the "contract?" Maybe...
	10:12pm Rick A: ↳ Tuned Out @10:09 Yes, there were a few good shops on St. Marks, too. Sounds, I think, was one of them. Sadly, they are all gone now.
	10:21pm Franco Twinkie: I just ate cold chicken with a cup of hot coffee. What the hell do you think of that? Hey Therese!
	10:23pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:21 Hey, Franco. That rates well.
	10:24pm Rick A: ↳ Therese @10:11 I'm struck that those still existed in the late 90s. They appeared to be too good a deal for us. I'm also struck that BMG would feature Cibo Matto. I guess the 90s was the decade of the underground briefly bubbling up above ground. I think my copy was actually a promo copy, which I wasn't supposed to have, though many promo copies circulated around East Village CD stores at the time.
	10:25pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @10:23 Sometimes dinner is a make-shift affair, right?
	10:29pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Rick A @10:12 I used to go to Sounds. I bought a lot of albums there in the early to mid 80s. Does anyone recall what year, CD players were introduced to the market?
	10:30pm Franco Twinkie: 1985, I think.
	10:30pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:25 Hi Franco! Cold chicken is on my menu tonight too.
	10:31pm Franco Twinkie: It's the only savory food I like cold.
	10:32pm Rick A: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:30 The first people I knew who had CDs was in 1985. I was in college at the time.
	10:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: At one time, I had a roommate who enjoyed leftover Chinese food cold right out of the fridge.
	10:34pm Roberto: I looked it up. This guy: www.imdb.com...
	10:35pm Rick A: Alexis Denisof
	10:35pm Roberto: ↳ Roberto @10:34 'twas a pity Google.
	10:36pm MarcaeDBNJ: Alexis Denisof a day late & a dollar short!
	10:36pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:25 Almost every night.
	10:37pm Sleepish: the community bit "I loved you in.... imdb?"
	10:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: I heard Bryce will be off for the summer. www.wfmu.org...
	10:43pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Rick A @10:32 That sounds right.
	10:43pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: Andy Milne is great, that's appointment radio.
	10:43pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Rick A @10:32 Yup. I remember buying it - a Kenwood DP 5020. It still works fine, but since WFMU came into my life, I no longer listen to CD's in the house. I have a pioneer system in my truck. I do most of my serious listening while I'm driving around.
	10:44pm Rick A: Menendez's son is running for Congress!?! What the?? Isn't the Menendez name toxic at this point? Get the whole family out of politics.
	10:45pm Roberto: ↳ Rick A @10:44 Hubris runs in the family, apparently.
	10:46pm chresti: Totally
	10:46pm hevykevy: I feel bad saying this but I just turned on the radio to have a little music and I patiently waited and just had this perfectly timed 15 minutes of talking about ll this stuff sad to miss the music bye
	10:49pm Rick A: Yes, Duane's show was appointment radio on Wednesday afternoons.
	10:51pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: @hevykevy You should totally check out the Depravity's Rainbow archives https://www.wfmu.org/playlists/TK
	10:53pm HyperDose: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:41 Thanks for the link!
	10:55pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Fifteen Fifty-Three" by "Khruangbin" I like saying Khraungbin @)
	10:55pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:43 I was turned on to WFMU in 1986. But I can’t recall who it was that did me that great favor.
	11:02pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ San Pedro Girl @10:55 That's amazing. Of course you lived in NYC, right? Chresti found it in 2018, but mostly she listened in her studio. I remember when she started listening at home. The DJ was wondering where something was recorded "The Matrix!" I yelled. But I didn't know how to comment on the board. Since the, I've made up for that a thousand times over.
	11:04pm splendid: I’m loving what m hearing.
	11:05pm Rick A: ↳ Song: "I Can't Let Go" by "Evie Sands" That was a really great song, very unique production for the pop sound.
	11:05pm juanitocabroncito: @hevykevy same!!
	11:08pm Therese: ↳ hevykevy @10:46 I've heard it said that patience is a virtue, but life is short and WFMU's archives are extensive, so good night and good luck to you.
	11:11pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:02 Yes. I was living in my first apartment, a studio across from The Chelsea Hotel.
	11:12pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ San Pedro Girl @11:11 Ah Ha! I love it when you give me these tidbits.
	11:14pm Rick A: I have an early morning, so I'm off to dreamland. Thank you, Therese, for a great show. I always appreciate listening to and commenting during your show.
	11:14pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "A Beast, A Priest" by "Kid Congo & the Pink Monke... Saint Louis of France is where we went.
	11:17pm pgalub: ↳ Song: "Leave the Gun, take the Tacos" by "Chris Lujan" Great title! ;)
	11:18pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ pgalub @11:17 Indeed!
	11:19pm bo: Tacos!
	11:20pm splendid: Cannoli Chips FTW!!!!
	11:21pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Rick A @11:14 Later, Rick A!
	11:23pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ San Pedro Girl @11:18 A club?
	11:25pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:14 A school?
	11:26pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ San Pedro Girl @11:25 Oh, you and Kid Congo went to that school together?
	11:30pm Harry Corvair: Here for the Kitty Committee. I Want to Be Evil by Eartha Kitt (More Lipstick, Powder & Paint: A Decade of Girls 1953-1962)
	11:32pm Joe B: ↳ Song: "Teach Me Tonight" by "The Bobbettes" the bobbettes played a WFMU remote live from Lincoln Center in 2009!
	11:34pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ San Pedro Girl @11:26 No, we were neighbors when we were kids. Saint Louis Of France was the Catholic church near by. I don't think he was forced to go to catechism like I was. But still, when people died, we both went to church.
	11:35pm Therese: ↳ Joe B @11:32 Was that the one with Question Mark, Joe?
	11:37pm Joe B: ↳ Therese @11:35 the year before ?. also on the bill were Harvey Scales and William Bell!
	11:40pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Joe B @11:37 Sounds like a good show.
	11:40pm Joe B: ↳ San Pedro Girl @11:40 was an amazing night!
	11:42pm Bob Barth: Hey Therese!! Thoroughly loved your show tonight!! Great sets!! Hey everybody!
	11:43pm Therese: ↳ Joe B @11:40 there were a few years there where so many artists from that era played around NYC, whether at Lincoln Center or the Atlantic Antic or that empty public pool in Williamsburg...
	11:43pm Franco Twinkie: Hi Bob!
	11:44pm Bob Barth: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:43 Franco!!!
	11:46pm Bob Barth: In my humble but 100% correct opinion personalities are what make radio great. So you talk as long as you want. That's why we're all here!!
	11:47pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Teach Me Tonight" by "The Bobbettes" Of course The Bobettes sang Mr. Lee. One time I saw Love at the Whiskey a go-go, and Arthur Lee sang Mr. Lee.
	11:47pm Joe B: ↳ Therese @11:43 yes, it was amazing and lots of fun!
	11:51pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Therese @11:43 I saw Wilco in McCarren Park Pool back in 2008. Now it's a regular pool you can swim in again. Oh, ok...
	11:51pm San Pedro Girl: The show has gone by so fast. Thank you, Therese.
	11:52pm Joe B: ↳ Song: "Good Luck with Your Secret" by "La Luz" wow great. gotta get this one
	11:53pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @11:51 I have a Wilco tee shirt. It was my mom's favorite.
	11:53pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Joe B @11:52 I was thinking the same. It could be a Gene Clarke song.
	11:53pm chresti: Thanks Therese!
	11:54pm Therese: ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @11:51 McCarren Pool! Why couldn't I think of the name?!
	11:54pm Joe B: ↳ San Pedro Girl @11:53 good call!
	11:54pm Joe B: ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @11:51 so many great shows there!
	11:54pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks Therese. I'm going straight to bed.
	11:55pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:54 Goodnight, Franco.
	11:55pm Joe B: nice recap of the McCarren concerts have2pass.substack.com...

Listener comments!
	9:01pm DanFA: Hello Therese.
	9:02pm DanFA: ↳ Song: "Then He Kissed Me" by "The Crystals" As far as I can remember, I've always wanted to be a DJ.
	9:02pm Gainstager Liquid: i love lamp
	9:03pm brycepunk1: ↳ Gainstager Liquid @9:02 Do you really love the lamp or are you just point at things in the room and saying you love them?
	9:03pm ultradamno: Luva Lamp?
	9:03pm Gainstager Liquid: i'm gonna go get the papas, get the papas.

	9:09pm steveo: Heyloooo
	9:09pm Amygdala: ↳ Gainstager Liquid @9:07 Are you suggesting coconuts migrate? www.youtube.com...
	9:09pm Therese: Hi Folks! Thanks for checking in!
	9:11pm steveo: Ohhhh from a bottle of wine!
	9:11pm Listener Bop Monroe: greetings from chilly Tannersville NY DJT and all. 'now go away or i shall taunt you a sec-ond time.'
	9:12pm brycepunk1: Listen, I need this, okay? Every day is same thing. My wife, my kids. Sure, I get golf on Sundays. I fucking HATE golf.
	9:13pm Rick A: Good Evening Therese and All, Hearing Mr. Dwight on WFMU is like a fresh wind blowing through the window.
	9:14pm steveo: SAME: "Until I saw your city lights, honey, I was blind"
	9:15pm steveo: Think you for allowing me to really pay attention to this song for the first time
	9:15pm Therese: You are all speaking my language and I love it!
	9:15pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Song: "Honky Cat" by "Elton John" More than ok with Sir Elton (and Bernie).
	9:17pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Phenomenal Cat" by "The Kinks" Per chance, prompted by the FMU Bad Animals Cat Adoption Party this Saturday?
	9:18pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Alley Cats" by "Hot Chip" And this one too.
	9:18pm steveo: Hey there, Rick
	9:18pm Drunken Creep: One of the many greats from The Kinks! Cannes Sardinia, Kathmandu, classic
	9:18pm PMD: I guess this is for the weekend…
	9:18pm ultradamno: Alley Cats' "Just An Alley Cat" next?
	9:18pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: Good evening to Therese and all you fine members of the Therese Nation. Or as ChatGPT would say, let's delve into the tapestry of this Wednesday evening, shall we?
	9:20pm Listener Bop Monroe: meow. it's 9:20 somewhere.
	9:21pm Dan S: ↳ Bob in DC and/or Virginia @9:18 Did ChatGPT actually say that, or just claim the credit for something you wrote? :)
	9:21pm Rick A: ↳ steveo @9:18 Hi Steveo, I hope you, Poppy and the kids are well.
	9:26pm Rick A: ↳ Song: "The Love Cats" by "The Cure" We adopted one of our cats through Bad Animals Kitty Corner segment. She is the most frenzied cat with whom I have ever lived. However, now she's chilling on her scratch pad, somewhat unnerved by the storm outside. We're happy that we can provide her a sanctuary from the stormy streets.
	9:27pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "The Love Cats" by "The Cure" On a feline flow here.
	9:27pm Cheryl The Nerd: Greetings fellow nerds...
	9:27pm tracy in LA: everybody wants to be a cat
	9:28pm steveo: Thanks Rick do you have 2 Chloe's now then?
	9:29pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Rick A @9:26 Our little Bombay kitty is also nervous right now, rescued from Sean Casey Animal Rescue in our neighborhood.
	9:31pm Dan S: What could be next? "Year of the Cat" or "What's New, Pussycat." (I'm kidding - mostly.)
	9:32pm Cheryl The Nerd: Cat Dance by Beema Duma
	9:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: I hope Clay Pigeon is listening. ❤️
	9:34pm Rick A: ↳ steveo @9:28 If you mean the cat, how do you know that her original name was Chloe? That's uncanny. No, having two Chloes was not feasible, so we renamed Chloe the kitty, Connie the kitty. It sounds similar at least. She's our Jersey girl. We drove to Hoboken to pick her up a little over a year ago.
	9:35pm su: this whole sound track is great, don't hear it nearly enough
	9:35pm Harry Corvair: Oh yeah. This. Cat People (Putting Out Fire) by David Bowie (Cat People (Original Soundtrack))
	9:36pm Therese: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @9:33 Oh, yes. Let's al raise a glass to Romulus Pigeon...
	9:36pm steveo: Haha. I saw something on the comment boards about it.. I hope you all are well, as well 🙂
	9:36pm laurapanic: I'd like to shout out Meow the Jewels at this point.
	9:36pm Therese: ↳ Therese @9:36 all, that is.
	9:37pm Therese: and to Hennessey, the best shop cat that ever was.
	9:38pm Rick A: ↳ Song: "Cat People (Putting Out Fire)" by "David Bowie" I saw the film when it first came out when I was sixteen. It kind of blew my mind. I'm not sure it was very good, though the shear audacity of it kind of knocked me out. I saw it again at BAM a few years ago and it is still gloriously unhinged. The production design is still striking. It was definitely a departure for Paul Schrader, one of my favorite filmmakers.
	9:38pm Dan S: I've been listening to and commenting on WFMU a bit too much today. I have an excuse; at home with a cold and can't do much else. Still, if this becomes habitual I'll be a bit worried. Is there a 12-step program for WFMU addiction? Anyway, I'll be signing off soon. Getting tired.
	9:39pm Listener Bop Monroe: ↳ Song: "Cat People (Putting Out Fire)" by "David Bowie" don't stick your arm near the panther cage.
	9:40pm Stevel: ↳ Song: "Cat People (Putting Out Fire)" by "David Bowie" Drench me in your synth, oh 80s wonder song.
	9:40pm Rick A: ↳ Therese @9:36 Yes, Romulus's passing is very sad. Clay and Kirsten loved him so much. As Clay would say, Romulus always remembered on Therese's show.
	9:40pm Marie in Chicago: Really enjoying this set. Hi Therese, hi All.
	9:41pm Listener Bop Monroe: strong first set DJT! Thnx!
	9:43pm Listener Bop Monroe: eco friendly, not ego friendly
	9:43pm laurapanic: I think most of the steps are just "listen to more WFMU cuz it makes us happy"
	9:44pm Dan S: ↳ laurapanic @9:43 OK, sounds good.
	9:44pm Dano59: Joni Mitchell's "Man from Mars" and Old 97's'ses "Murder or a Heart Attack" = both about lost cats
	9:46pm Ken From Hyde Park: 10 Am I listening to WFMU too much? 20 Keep listening to make sure. 30 goto 10
	9:48pm steveo: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @9:46 SYNTAX ERROR, Line 10: NO SUCH OPERATOR: "Am"
	9:48pm Karl: ↳ Song: "The Love Cats" by "The Cure" Love love love
	9:51pm Listener Bop Monroe: go margs
	9:53pm PigeonsAndRust: My aunt's bird makes liquidy water noises when he wants his water bowl refilled.
	9:53pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Therese @9:36 Pouring one out!
	9:54pm Dano59: Go-Go, Kitty
	9:54pm Marie in Chicago: I think I have come to prefer cats. I'm reading memoir by Caleb Carr (recently deceased) about his life and mostly his life with this half-wild Siberian rescue cat. It's called My Beloved Monster. I recommend it @) It's full of info about cats as well as his story. My cat, Willy, is like a small dog in some ways.
	9:55pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: @Ken From Hyde Park "Goto is considered harmful"
	10:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: Unfortunately, I seem to have forgotten most of what I learned about BASIC programming.
	10:01pm Rick A: ↳ Song: "Sugar Water" by "Cibo Matto" I bought this album when it came out in 1997. I've seen them live three times over the years. They tend to put on energetic shows. This album evokes the sounds of the East Village in the late 90s since that is where I was living at the time. I think they were living around there too.
	10:01pm San Pedro Girl: Good evening, Therese and everyone.
	10:02pm Therese: ↳ Rick A @10:01 Same, Rick A!
	10:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: <3 kiggykatz <3
	10:03pm Roberto: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @10:02 What? Where?
	10:04pm greg g: Sounding purrfect Therese
	10:04pm Rick A: I first saw Cibo Matto at a club called Tramps in Chelsea in the spring of 1997. I saw a lot of shows there until it closed in the fall of 1999. In fact, I saw the last show there.
	10:05pm Tuned Out: @Rick A did you by chance get your copy at Adult Crash, as I did?
	10:05pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Sugar Water" by "Cibo Matto" Hi Therese and company! I liked beef jerky a lot!
	10:06pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Song: "Spell It Out" by "Ohmme" I haven't heard this in a minute. Such an amazing album.
	10:06pm Dano59: signing off ... catch up with you cats later / or in the archives
	10:07pm Rick A: ↳ Tuned Out @10:05 I bought it on CD, not vinyl. I used to be able to say where I bought all of my CDs, though volume and age have gotten the best of me. I might have bought it at Stooz on, I think, East 7th near Ave. A. I later met Stew at a WFMU record fair, telling him I was a regular at his tiny store which included a cat.
	10:09pm Tuned Out: Stooz was another goodie
	10:11pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ San Pedro Girl @10:01 Greetings, SPG!
	10:11pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @10:11 Hi Chris!
	10:11pm Therese: ↳ Rick A @10:07 I played that track from my own CD copy, which i most probably finagled from the BMG music club for $0.01. Did I eventually fullfill the "contract?" Maybe...
	10:12pm Rick A: ↳ Tuned Out @10:09 Yes, there were a few good shops on St. Marks, too. Sounds, I think, was one of them. Sadly, they are all gone now.
	10:21pm Franco Twinkie: I just ate cold chicken with a cup of hot coffee. What the hell do you think of that? Hey Therese!
	10:23pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:21 Hey, Franco. That rates well.
	10:24pm Rick A: ↳ Therese @10:11 I'm struck that those still existed in the late 90s. They appeared to be too good a deal for us. I'm also struck that BMG would feature Cibo Matto. I guess the 90s was the decade of the underground briefly bubbling up above ground. I think my copy was actually a promo copy, which I wasn't supposed to have, though many promo copies circulated around East Village CD stores at the time.
	10:25pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @10:23 Sometimes dinner is a make-shift affair, right?
	10:29pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Rick A @10:12 I used to go to Sounds. I bought a lot of albums there in the early to mid 80s. Does anyone recall what year, CD players were introduced to the market?
	10:30pm Franco Twinkie: 1985, I think.
	10:30pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:25 Hi Franco! Cold chicken is on my menu tonight too.
	10:31pm Franco Twinkie: It's the only savory food I like cold.
	10:32pm Rick A: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:30 The first people I knew who had CDs was in 1985. I was in college at the time.
	10:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: At one time, I had a roommate who enjoyed leftover Chinese food cold right out of the fridge.
	10:34pm Roberto: I looked it up. This guy: www.imdb.com...
	10:35pm Rick A: Alexis Denisof
	10:35pm Roberto: ↳ Roberto @10:34 'twas a pity Google.
	10:36pm MarcaeDBNJ: Alexis Denisof a day late & a dollar short!
	10:36pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:25 Almost every night.
	10:37pm Sleepish: the community bit "I loved you in.... imdb?"
	10:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: I heard Bryce will be off for the summer. www.wfmu.org...
	10:43pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Rick A @10:32 That sounds right.
	10:43pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: Andy Milne is great, that's appointment radio.
	10:43pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Rick A @10:32 Yup. I remember buying it - a Kenwood DP 5020. It still works fine, but since WFMU came into my life, I no longer listen to CD's in the house. I have a pioneer system in my truck. I do most of my serious listening while I'm driving around.
	10:44pm Rick A: Menendez's son is running for Congress!?! What the?? Isn't the Menendez name toxic at this point? Get the whole family out of politics.
	10:45pm Roberto: ↳ Rick A @10:44 Hubris runs in the family, apparently.
	10:46pm chresti: Totally
	10:46pm hevykevy: I feel bad saying this but I just turned on the radio to have a little music and I patiently waited and just had this perfectly timed 15 minutes of talking about ll this stuff sad to miss the music bye
	10:49pm Rick A: Yes, Duane's show was appointment radio on Wednesday afternoons.
	10:51pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: @hevykevy You should totally check out the Depravity's Rainbow archives https://www.wfmu.org/playlists/TK
	10:53pm HyperDose: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:41 Thanks for the link!
	10:55pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Fifteen Fifty-Three" by "Khruangbin" I like saying Khraungbin @)
	10:55pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:43 I was turned on to WFMU in 1986. But I can’t recall who it was that did me that great favor.
	11:02pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ San Pedro Girl @10:55 That's amazing. Of course you lived in NYC, right? Chresti found it in 2018, but mostly she listened in her studio. I remember when she started listening at home. The DJ was wondering where something was recorded "The Matrix!" I yelled. But I didn't know how to comment on the board. Since the, I've made up for that a thousand times over.
	11:04pm splendid: I’m loving what m hearing.
	11:05pm Rick A: ↳ Song: "I Can't Let Go" by "Evie Sands" That was a really great song, very unique production for the pop sound.
	11:05pm juanitocabroncito: @hevykevy same!!
	11:08pm Therese: ↳ hevykevy @10:46 I've heard it said that patience is a virtue, but life is short and WFMU's archives are extensive, so good night and good luck to you.
	11:11pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:02 Yes. I was living in my first apartment, a studio across from The Chelsea Hotel.
	11:12pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ San Pedro Girl @11:11 Ah Ha! I love it when you give me these tidbits.
	11:14pm Rick A: I have an early morning, so I'm off to dreamland. Thank you, Therese, for a great show. I always appreciate listening to and commenting during your show.
	11:14pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "A Beast, A Priest" by "Kid Congo & the Pink Monke... Saint Louis of France is where we went.
	11:17pm pgalub: ↳ Song: "Leave the Gun, take the Tacos" by "Chris Lujan" Great title! ;)
	11:18pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ pgalub @11:17 Indeed!
	11:19pm bo: Tacos!
	11:20pm splendid: Cannoli Chips FTW!!!!
	11:21pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Rick A @11:14 Later, Rick A!
	11:23pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ San Pedro Girl @11:18 A club?
	11:25pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:14 A school?
	11:26pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ San Pedro Girl @11:25 Oh, you and Kid Congo went to that school together?
	11:30pm Harry Corvair: Here for the Kitty Committee. I Want to Be Evil by Eartha Kitt (More Lipstick, Powder & Paint: A Decade of Girls 1953-1962)
	11:32pm Joe B: ↳ Song: "Teach Me Tonight" by "The Bobbettes" the bobbettes played a WFMU remote live from Lincoln Center in 2009!
	11:34pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ San Pedro Girl @11:26 No, we were neighbors when we were kids. Saint Louis Of France was the Catholic church near by. I don't think he was forced to go to catechism like I was. But still, when people died, we both went to church.
	11:35pm Therese: ↳ Joe B @11:32 Was that the one with Question Mark, Joe?
	11:37pm Joe B: ↳ Therese @11:35 the year before ?. also on the bill were Harvey Scales and William Bell!
	11:40pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Joe B @11:37 Sounds like a good show.
	11:40pm Joe B: ↳ San Pedro Girl @11:40 was an amazing night!
	11:42pm Bob Barth: Hey Therese!! Thoroughly loved your show tonight!! Great sets!! Hey everybody!
	11:43pm Therese: ↳ Joe B @11:40 there were a few years there where so many artists from that era played around NYC, whether at Lincoln Center or the Atlantic Antic or that empty public pool in Williamsburg...
	11:43pm Franco Twinkie: Hi Bob!
	11:44pm Bob Barth: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:43 Franco!!!
	11:46pm Bob Barth: In my humble but 100% correct opinion personalities are what make radio great. So you talk as long as you want. That's why we're all here!!
	11:47pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Teach Me Tonight" by "The Bobbettes" Of course The Bobettes sang Mr. Lee. One time I saw Love at the Whiskey a go-go, and Arthur Lee sang Mr. Lee.
	11:47pm Joe B: ↳ Therese @11:43 yes, it was amazing and lots of fun!
	11:51pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Therese @11:43 I saw Wilco in McCarren Park Pool back in 2008. Now it's a regular pool you can swim in again. Oh, ok...
	11:51pm San Pedro Girl: The show has gone by so fast. Thank you, Therese.
	11:52pm Joe B: ↳ Song: "Good Luck with Your Secret" by "La Luz" wow great. gotta get this one
	11:53pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @11:51 I have a Wilco tee shirt. It was my mom's favorite.
	11:53pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Joe B @11:52 I was thinking the same. It could be a Gene Clarke song.
	11:53pm chresti: Thanks Therese!
	11:54pm Therese: ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @11:51 McCarren Pool! Why couldn't I think of the name?!
	11:54pm Joe B: ↳ San Pedro Girl @11:53 good call!
	11:54pm Joe B: ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @11:51 so many great shows there!
	11:54pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks Therese. I'm going straight to bed.
