WFMU: Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from October 30, 2015

Listener comments!
	11:17am listener james from westwood: Hot damn, UM, you're at 100%!! Congrats and thanks to all!
	11:31am listener james from westwood: I stand corrected! Go go go for the goal!
	11:39am Uncle Michael: You can call goal shenanigans!
	11:46am βrian: The OED says the origin of "shenanigan" is obscure. But it's just gotta be gaelic, no?
	11:51am Uncle Michael: Go with your instincts. I'm still trying to figure why one pronounces "Dalziel" as one does. Gaelic is Greek to me.
	11:59am annie: alphadictionary says: www.alphadictionary.com...
	11:59am Gaylord Fields: @Uncle Michael: The "z" in "Dalzell" isn't really a "z" — it's the letter "yogh" (written as "ȝ" and pronounced like a "y." It got corrupted once yogh fell out of favor and replaced with a "z" in spelling but retained its pronunciation. (Also see "Menzies/Mingus.")
	12:01pm Tate: Gotya on UM
	12:02pm listener james from westwood: I was the first out of the 2014 American Copy Editors Society annual spelling bee on "shenanigans." It's one of those words whose spelling I can type but not recite. Also, it was in Las Vegas and I was three piña coladas in already.
	12:02pm mauri: heya uncle michael
	12:03pm Doug Schulkind: The hinkiest! The dinkiest!
	12:03pm Stevel: Doot doot 'n doot 'n...
	12:04pm βrian: Poot!
	12:05pm Gaylord Fields: @Uncle Michael: Will there be any "Newman Plays Nilsson Sings Newman"?
	12:06pm Stevel: Hunter Valley PTA!?!
	12:06pm still b/p: Dinky Schminky Day.
	12:07pm Uncle Michael: James! Brian! Annie! Gaylord! tate! Doug! Mauri! Steve! still b/p!
	12:08pm doctorjazz: Hey, UM!
	12:08pm Uncle Michael: Things will get a little randy, Gaylord.
	12:08pm Uncle Michael: Doctor J!
	12:08pm Parq: Big HN fan. Glad I can stay at my desk today.
	12:08pm Gaylord Fields: Hurrah!
	12:09pm annie: seriously?? a whole show of Nilsson!? very cool
	12:09pm Uncle Michael: Parq!
	12:10pm βrian: But how to resist the siren call of the food cart?
	12:11pm Gaylord Fields: Today I'm working remotely from an old stone house in Dutchess County, NY, so I can blast this show without disturbing co-workers — because it's just me and someone else's dog here.
	12:11pm Uncle Michael: you need an app, Brian
	🛒 12:12pm Brian in UK: Uncle and there was me thinking that it would be Randy Newman.
	12:12pm βrian: Aye, an app, an entrée, and a nice dessert.
	🛒 12:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...my great kitschy printed throw of Lennon @ Rock'n'Roll Circus glowers on in amusement...
	12:13pm Uncle Michael: Hi other (parallel) Brian!
	12:13pm Parq: Gaylord, I'm jealous. I love it up there. My kid spent four years at Bard, and they were very good years for us.
	🛒 12:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Harry would go to the cart...
	12:15pm βrian: And the Whiskey cart comes on Fridays ...
	12:16pm Uncle Michael: Rev!
	12:18pm still b/p: Got the number of R&R Hall of Fame nominating committee? .. to suggest they tune in and then to shout at them, "YOU CAN"T HANDLE THE TRUTH!!" Speaking of whiskey, I've had more in the last few weeks than perhaps ever before. Was involved in a project in which gifts of whiskey rained down on us. We polished off a good amount, but I still came home with a full bottle of Tullamore Dew. It'll live here a long while.
	12:18pm Gaylord Fields: @Parq: It's absolutely gorgeous here, and my current view is pastoral and autumnal. I wish I could always work in this atmosphere, as long as I must be a working man.
	12:21pm northguineahills: I saw the Nilsson biopic, but somehow I missed that he was born in my neighborhood (Bushwick).
	12:22pm Uncle Michael: His return there was very melancholic. In his biography and I think in the film.
	12:24pm joe: 'ello folks
	12:25pm Uncle Michael: hey Joe...and Paul.
	12:25pm P-90: Hi Uncle Michael and Friends, Thanks @UM for this very nice opening set. Something about listening to these particular tunes on the the day before my birthday really touched me.
	12:29pm joe: WARNING this page contains strobing Nilssons which may cause seizures
	12:31pm P-90: Marilyn McCoo gives me chills too.
	12:32pm Erella: This is fantastic!
	12:33pm Lewis: @UM - you continue to open my musical horizons. Many many thanks!
	12:33pm listener james from westwood: Happy birthday in advance! I've got two Halloween birthdays in my local circle, and it was my parents' anniversary!
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: P-90! Erella! Lewis! Thank you for the kind compliment.
	12:36pm Uncle Michael: I'm thrilled to contribute to your birthday weekend, P-90!
	🛒 12:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Joyeux Solar Return P-90 - fellow ♏Scorpio & FMUvian - !! Jollyfish know their way around a damn studio...
	12:44pm still b/p: I had no idea that Cuddly Toy was so nudge-wink nasty when Davy Jones sang it and I was just a boy.
	12:44pm doctorjazz: love this Fruit Machine track...remember it, though I wouldn't be able to pull up the name of the band in a million years...
	12:44pm Doug Schulkind: $92 and counting! Let's get Hinky Dinkified and hit that goal! Pledge: www.wfmu.org...
	12:44pm flash: workin and listenin and nilsson is an actual god
	12:45pm northguineahills: feliz cumpleanos P-90!
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: Yes...an actual god.
	12:46pm flash: this song is emotionally devastating, but you don't always notice, it's so nice
	12:50pm Doug Schulkind: He shoots, he scores: G O A L ! !
	12:52pm CHRIStafariRI: LOVING today's show!
	12:54pm βrian: Steamed chicken with harissa … Mmm.
	12:54pm listener james from westwood: Yes!! Well done, all, and congrats again!!
	12:57pm Uncle Michael: Thanks Christafari!
	1:03pm rf: eeeeeee!
	1:03pm βrian: Carpet bombing with coconuts?
	1:04pm Uncle Michael: thanks everyone...success tastes sweet. The station could still move the yellow bar some more! rf eeeeee!
	1:05pm Erella: Lime? Coconut? What is this song about? Great version though
	1:06pm still b/p: Are today's trends-surfers putting the lime in the coconut water?
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: No one knows, Erella.
	1:10pm listener james from westwood: A longtime fave, that Schneider cover.
	1:10pm annie: i totally enjoyed that lime-in-the-coconut cover...
	1:12pm listener james from westwood: AS IS THIS LCD VERSION.
	1:12pm Uncle Michael: We can make each other happy.
	1:12pm Erella: Ha! Thank you. I haven't heard this version before. I love it but was just wondering as I was singing along.
	🛒 1:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Kermit's version still my fave.
	1:15pm annie: well, talk about behind the times, i just couldn't place that voice... B-52s!!!!
	1:17pm annie: i really hope there are some Oblio-related tunes... if even just the car-commercial song.
	1:20pm still b/p: At first I read annie's comment as "TIME-in-the-coconut cover," and it's a laugh to think of Croce and Nilsson having a laugh with some lyric swapping.
	1:21pm annie: ^
	1:21pm Uncle Michael: Annie...don't fret!
	1:23pm Gaylord Fields: @still b/p: "If I could save lime in a bottle..." would turn out to be quite prophetic, considering beverage trends to follow.
	1:24pm david from ks: ,,,Hey peace and stuff DJUM. Have You or anyone ever tried the Mexican treat of shredded coconut stuffed in a whole hardened candied lime skin?
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: No David. Good? Anywhere I can get that in Kansas?
	1:25pm βrian: That does sound good.
	1:26pm annie: i have utter confidence UM...
	1:27pm still b/p: And "put the time in the coconut" would be nicely evocative or tropically folkloric or whimsically obscure or some damn thing.
	1:27pm david from ks: ,,,No the only place i found it was at The El Rancho Super Market in Dallas TX. That is a rare candy to find!
	1:28pm βrian: Could said coconut be properly transported by an African Swallow, then?
	1:29pm Alex In Illinois: There seems to be enough lime To fill a whole coconut Once you find one
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: Hey Alex...this coconut is only half full so far!
	1:30pm Lewis: this has a bit of Dan Hicks to it...
	1:30pm Uncle Michael: I'd say that Harry's version did a bit too.
	🛒 1:32pm Brian in UK: If anyone carries the torch it is big Ron.
	1:35pm still b/p: Service is ending this month on a rail line terminating here in town that was only serving one customer, the B&M Baked Bean factory. Nobody cares about the railroads anymore.
	1:36pm Uncle Michael: tough beans
	1:39pm βrian: Cello gravitas.
	1:41pm listener james from westwood: I love B&M Beans! They make Heinz taste like rabbit pellets!
	1:42pm ndbob: I remember the LP that "1941" is on being really good.
	🛒 1:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah - but Harry's voice on 'Without You' makes the great Badfinger's insufficient.
	1:43pm Gaylord Fields: @listener james from westwood: Remind me never to eat at your house.
	🛒 1:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I forgot by now to call Courtney Barnett the Next Dylan - a notable thing...
	1:45pm still b/p: Bean's will get outa here on trucks from now on, 10-4, good buddy, but still comin' to ya.
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: cool beans
	1:48pm Gaylord Fields: By the by, I'm referring to listener james' claimed familiarity with the taste of rabbit pellets.
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: I got that!
	1:50pm annie: i actually liked this show very much... not the rabbit pellets, but CoEF
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: I watched it for Uncle Norman. he was the bee's knees.
	1:53pm Gaylord Fields: @Uncle Michael: I think it's always a good idea to go on the record as being pro-beans/anti–rabbit pellets as food.
	1:54pm annie: i even enjoyed the reruns on that throw-back teevee station, TBS?
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: It can't hurt, Gaylord.
	1:56pm still b/p: Typecasting in the living room: Bixby to me was the My Favorite Martian nephew and then Eddie's father, so Hulk...? I never saw but a minute of that, but, umm, no.
	1:56pm βrian: Which kind of rabbit pellets is that? That is, posterior or Anterior?
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: These lunatics covered all of "Pussy Cats."
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: Goodnight Beantown (full circle!)
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: And "The Magician"...
	1:59pm annie: that "Hulk" thing may have been a contract fulfillment thing.. ? even though it had a great run, i never could dig it enough to enjoy it.
	2:02pm listener james from westwood: @Gaylord, most people never get past the gaseous atmosphere to risk contact w/ rabbit spoor. (gazes at freezer filled with chili and lentil soup)
	2:05pm Tate: Good show so far. Have to get ready and head to a Halloween parade to see a Kansas City Royal and Bob The Minion
	2:06pm still b/p: Minions like bean jokes.
	2:08pm annie: GREAT movie!!!
	2:08pm Uncle Michael: Have fun in KC, Tate. Go Royals.
	2:09pm annie: they turned that stage set into a tourist attraction village. this was, to me, the best translation of a comic to a live-action film..
	2:10pm Mike East: I love Popeye. Bought for 5 bucks at the grocery store a few years back.
	2:11pm annie: "You owe me an apology."
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: hey Mike. I like seeing Bill Irwin in it!
	2:11pm annie: Such an obscure movie quote i rarely use it...
	2:14pm Parq: That Food number isn't as bad as I remember thinking it was when I saw the movie with a date 35 years ago, but Lord, it isn't great.
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: No, not great...but it's got Wimpy.
	2:16pm Mike East: "He's Large" is my personal favorite.
	2:16pm Peter Nelson: Apparently, the whole crew was very, very, very stoned for the making of that movie. I loved it.
	2:17pm still b/p: This just in from Snobville: I had a look at a few minutes of Goodnight Beantown because it barely rang a bell. Everything about those few minutes has that bland, irritating network TV awfulness...the open title/credit sequence, the would-be banter, the Hallmark ad. Need to give senses a powerful wash and antidote now.
	2:18pm Uncle Michael: Hey Peter!
	2:18pm Uncle Michael: You nailed it, still b/p.
	2:26pm annie: i had the privilege to have shown "Popeye" to a young frind last year, he'd never seen it. he was 11 and LOVED it.. was very scared for swee-pea at the end bit.
	2:30pm Goyim in the AM: www.youtube.com...
	2:34pm P-90: Ray Walston WAS an inspired choice for Poopdeck Pappy. The kind of casting where you couldn't imagine anyone else in the role after you'd seen him.
	2:34pm Uncle Michael: That's great annie. That does get scary. Thanks for that link GitAM.
	2:35pm P-90: -and Bill Irwin is a treat to watch in ANYthing.
	2:36pm Uncle Michael: Have you seen Regard of Flight?
	2:38pm annie: just bookmarked it for tonight UM!! thanks.. maybe Bill Irwin marathon is due..
	2:39pm Uncle Michael: Youtube brought Regard of Flight back from the abyss. Genius work.
	2:41pm annie: i use putlocker if they have it...otherwise, YT it is
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: There's always one...I sure coulda cut this song from the show...sorry Al.
	2:43pm annie: i saw him in some movie a few years ago... astounding portayal of a very unusual character. wish i could remember the nane of the movie
	2:47pm P-90: Wow! Glad to se the complete "Regard of Flight" on YTube! A great opportunity to revisit it after many years.
	2:47pm Uncle Michael: Is The Clown Bagatelles there too?
	2:51pm P-90: The Clown Bagatelles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94r249gfA90
	2:52pm Goyim in the AM: Rhymes with rockin'.
	2:52pm Uncle Michael: I does! Thanks for the link P-90.
	2:52pm annie: guess it's YT for me tonight then.
	2:54pm Doug Schulkind: 100% is definitely NOT the loneliest number. THANK YOU TO ALL GTDR FAITHFUL FOR HAULING BOTH FRIDAY RADIO SHOWS HERE ON THE DRUMMER STREAM ACROSS THE PLEDGE RUBICON!!!!!!

	2:55pm Uncle Michael: Thank you Bob.
	🛒 2:55pm KevinfromBayRidge: Thanks for the Schmillson, Unc! How 'bout some bagels to schmeer it on?
	2:56pm Uncle Michael: I'd love one! I have Zabars in the freezer. Thanks Kevin.
	2:58pm Doug Schulkind: WFMU just ticked up to 89%! Tick...tick...tick...tick...
	2:58pm Uncle Michael: tock!
	2:59pm Uncle Michael: uno mas
	3:01pm Mike East: great one for the archives, Uncle Michael. Happy Halloween.
	3:02pm listener james from westwood: Smashing idea for a theme show today, UM!
	3:02pm Uncle Michael: Thanks Mike...stay safe trick or treating.
	3:03pm Uncle Michael: Thanks James.
	3:03pm Erella: Great, great show.
	3:03pm Doug Schulkind: GTDR Faithful, meet your cousin Marianne!
	3:03pm Parq: Anybody else think Marianne F is a hundred times more alluring now than when she was a kid? This is a great song from a great album.
	🛒 3:03pm KevinfromBayRidge: Love HDT OT!
	3:04pm Uncle Michael: Thank you Erella.
	3:04pm Erella: How would we find this radio show if we wanted to hear it again? Is there a handy link?
	3:04pm Uncle Michael: Sudden death OT. Don't forget me!
	3:04pm Uncle Michael: wfmu.org...
	3:05pm Dean: @Erella: http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/63308
	🛒 3:05pm KevinfromBayRidge: @ Parq. How could she NOT be sexier with her current voice?
	3:06pm Erella: Excellent. Thank you.
	3:07pm doctorjazz: Fun show, nicely done!
	🛒 3:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...wull - there's a gif of MF unzipping in 'Girl on Motorcycle' - &...uh...what was I saying??...
	3:07pm Mike East: ha! Walkin in Memphis IS so obnoxious!

	3:08pm Dean: Obnoxious?! You are too charitable.
	3:09pm Alex In Illinois: I got to hear some more Wiyos
	3:10pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone!
	3:10pm Erella: Thank you

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from October 30, 2015

View Uncle Michael's profile

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

Listener comments!
	11:17am listener james from westwood: Hot damn, UM, you're at 100%!! Congrats and thanks to all!
	11:31am listener james from westwood: I stand corrected! Go go go for the goal!
	11:39am Uncle Michael: You can call goal shenanigans!
	11:46am βrian: The OED says the origin of "shenanigan" is obscure. But it's just gotta be gaelic, no?
	11:51am Uncle Michael: Go with your instincts. I'm still trying to figure why one pronounces "Dalziel" as one does. Gaelic is Greek to me.
	11:59am annie: alphadictionary says: www.alphadictionary.com...
	11:59am Gaylord Fields: @Uncle Michael: The "z" in "Dalzell" isn't really a "z" — it's the letter "yogh" (written as "ȝ" and pronounced like a "y." It got corrupted once yogh fell out of favor and replaced with a "z" in spelling but retained its pronunciation. (Also see "Menzies/Mingus.")
	12:01pm Tate: Gotya on UM
	12:02pm listener james from westwood: I was the first out of the 2014 American Copy Editors Society annual spelling bee on "shenanigans." It's one of those words whose spelling I can type but not recite. Also, it was in Las Vegas and I was three piña coladas in already.
	12:02pm mauri: heya uncle michael
	12:03pm Doug Schulkind: The hinkiest! The dinkiest!
	12:03pm Stevel: Doot doot 'n doot 'n...
	12:04pm βrian: Poot!
	12:05pm Gaylord Fields: @Uncle Michael: Will there be any "Newman Plays Nilsson Sings Newman"?
	12:06pm Stevel: Hunter Valley PTA!?!
	12:06pm still b/p: Dinky Schminky Day.
	12:07pm Uncle Michael: James! Brian! Annie! Gaylord! tate! Doug! Mauri! Steve! still b/p!
	12:08pm doctorjazz: Hey, UM!
	12:08pm Uncle Michael: Things will get a little randy, Gaylord.
	12:08pm Uncle Michael: Doctor J!
	12:08pm Parq: Big HN fan. Glad I can stay at my desk today.
	12:08pm Gaylord Fields: Hurrah!
	12:09pm annie: seriously?? a whole show of Nilsson!? very cool
	12:09pm Uncle Michael: Parq!
	12:10pm βrian: But how to resist the siren call of the food cart?
	12:11pm Gaylord Fields: Today I'm working remotely from an old stone house in Dutchess County, NY, so I can blast this show without disturbing co-workers — because it's just me and someone else's dog here.
	12:11pm Uncle Michael: you need an app, Brian
	🛒 12:12pm Brian in UK: Uncle and there was me thinking that it would be Randy Newman.
	12:12pm βrian: Aye, an app, an entrée, and a nice dessert.
	🛒 12:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...my great kitschy printed throw of Lennon @ Rock'n'Roll Circus glowers on in amusement...
	12:13pm Uncle Michael: Hi other (parallel) Brian!
	12:13pm Parq: Gaylord, I'm jealous. I love it up there. My kid spent four years at Bard, and they were very good years for us.
	🛒 12:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Harry would go to the cart...
	12:15pm βrian: And the Whiskey cart comes on Fridays ...
	12:16pm Uncle Michael: Rev!
	12:18pm still b/p: Got the number of R&R Hall of Fame nominating committee? .. to suggest they tune in and then to shout at them, "YOU CAN"T HANDLE THE TRUTH!!" Speaking of whiskey, I've had more in the last few weeks than perhaps ever before. Was involved in a project in which gifts of whiskey rained down on us. We polished off a good amount, but I still came home with a full bottle of Tullamore Dew. It'll live here a long while.
	12:18pm Gaylord Fields: @Parq: It's absolutely gorgeous here, and my current view is pastoral and autumnal. I wish I could always work in this atmosphere, as long as I must be a working man.
	12:21pm northguineahills: I saw the Nilsson biopic, but somehow I missed that he was born in my neighborhood (Bushwick).
	12:22pm Uncle Michael: His return there was very melancholic. In his biography and I think in the film.
	12:24pm joe: 'ello folks
	12:25pm Uncle Michael: hey Joe...and Paul.
	12:25pm P-90: Hi Uncle Michael and Friends, Thanks @UM for this very nice opening set. Something about listening to these particular tunes on the the day before my birthday really touched me.
	12:29pm joe: WARNING this page contains strobing Nilssons which may cause seizures
	12:31pm P-90: Marilyn McCoo gives me chills too.
	12:32pm Erella: This is fantastic!
	12:33pm Lewis: @UM - you continue to open my musical horizons. Many many thanks!
	12:33pm listener james from westwood: Happy birthday in advance! I've got two Halloween birthdays in my local circle, and it was my parents' anniversary!
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: P-90! Erella! Lewis! Thank you for the kind compliment.
	12:36pm Uncle Michael: I'm thrilled to contribute to your birthday weekend, P-90!
	🛒 12:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Joyeux Solar Return P-90 - fellow ♏Scorpio & FMUvian - !! Jollyfish know their way around a damn studio...
	12:44pm still b/p: I had no idea that Cuddly Toy was so nudge-wink nasty when Davy Jones sang it and I was just a boy.
	12:44pm doctorjazz: love this Fruit Machine track...remember it, though I wouldn't be able to pull up the name of the band in a million years...
	12:44pm Doug Schulkind: $92 and counting! Let's get Hinky Dinkified and hit that goal! Pledge: www.wfmu.org...
	12:44pm flash: workin and listenin and nilsson is an actual god
	12:45pm northguineahills: feliz cumpleanos P-90!
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: Yes...an actual god.
	12:46pm flash: this song is emotionally devastating, but you don't always notice, it's so nice
	12:50pm Doug Schulkind: He shoots, he scores: G O A L ! !
	12:52pm CHRIStafariRI: LOVING today's show!
	12:54pm βrian: Steamed chicken with harissa … Mmm.
	12:54pm listener james from westwood: Yes!! Well done, all, and congrats again!!
	12:57pm Uncle Michael: Thanks Christafari!
	1:03pm rf: eeeeeee!
	1:03pm βrian: Carpet bombing with coconuts?
	1:04pm Uncle Michael: thanks everyone...success tastes sweet. The station could still move the yellow bar some more! rf eeeeee!
	1:05pm Erella: Lime? Coconut? What is this song about? Great version though
	1:06pm still b/p: Are today's trends-surfers putting the lime in the coconut water?
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: No one knows, Erella.
	1:10pm listener james from westwood: A longtime fave, that Schneider cover.
	1:10pm annie: i totally enjoyed that lime-in-the-coconut cover...
	1:12pm listener james from westwood: AS IS THIS LCD VERSION.
	1:12pm Uncle Michael: We can make each other happy.
	1:12pm Erella: Ha! Thank you. I haven't heard this version before. I love it but was just wondering as I was singing along.
	🛒 1:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Kermit's version still my fave.
	1:15pm annie: well, talk about behind the times, i just couldn't place that voice... B-52s!!!!
	1:17pm annie: i really hope there are some Oblio-related tunes... if even just the car-commercial song.
	1:20pm still b/p: At first I read annie's comment as "TIME-in-the-coconut cover," and it's a laugh to think of Croce and Nilsson having a laugh with some lyric swapping.
	1:21pm annie: ^
	1:21pm Uncle Michael: Annie...don't fret!
	1:23pm Gaylord Fields: @still b/p: "If I could save lime in a bottle..." would turn out to be quite prophetic, considering beverage trends to follow.
	1:24pm david from ks: ,,,Hey peace and stuff DJUM. Have You or anyone ever tried the Mexican treat of shredded coconut stuffed in a whole hardened candied lime skin?
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: No David. Good? Anywhere I can get that in Kansas?
	1:25pm βrian: That does sound good.
	1:26pm annie: i have utter confidence UM...
	1:27pm still b/p: And "put the time in the coconut" would be nicely evocative or tropically folkloric or whimsically obscure or some damn thing.
	1:27pm david from ks: ,,,No the only place i found it was at The El Rancho Super Market in Dallas TX. That is a rare candy to find!
	1:28pm βrian: Could said coconut be properly transported by an African Swallow, then?
	1:29pm Alex In Illinois: There seems to be enough lime To fill a whole coconut Once you find one
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: Hey Alex...this coconut is only half full so far!
	1:30pm Lewis: this has a bit of Dan Hicks to it...
	1:30pm Uncle Michael: I'd say that Harry's version did a bit too.
	🛒 1:32pm Brian in UK: If anyone carries the torch it is big Ron.
	1:35pm still b/p: Service is ending this month on a rail line terminating here in town that was only serving one customer, the B&M Baked Bean factory. Nobody cares about the railroads anymore.
	1:36pm Uncle Michael: tough beans
	1:39pm βrian: Cello gravitas.
	1:41pm listener james from westwood: I love B&M Beans! They make Heinz taste like rabbit pellets!
	1:42pm ndbob: I remember the LP that "1941" is on being really good.
	🛒 1:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah - but Harry's voice on 'Without You' makes the great Badfinger's insufficient.
	1:43pm Gaylord Fields: @listener james from westwood: Remind me never to eat at your house.
	🛒 1:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I forgot by now to call Courtney Barnett the Next Dylan - a notable thing...
	1:45pm still b/p: Bean's will get outa here on trucks from now on, 10-4, good buddy, but still comin' to ya.
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: cool beans
	1:48pm Gaylord Fields: By the by, I'm referring to listener james' claimed familiarity with the taste of rabbit pellets.
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: I got that!
	1:50pm annie: i actually liked this show very much... not the rabbit pellets, but CoEF
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: I watched it for Uncle Norman. he was the bee's knees.
	1:53pm Gaylord Fields: @Uncle Michael: I think it's always a good idea to go on the record as being pro-beans/anti–rabbit pellets as food.
	1:54pm annie: i even enjoyed the reruns on that throw-back teevee station, TBS?
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: It can't hurt, Gaylord.
	1:56pm still b/p: Typecasting in the living room: Bixby to me was the My Favorite Martian nephew and then Eddie's father, so Hulk...? I never saw but a minute of that, but, umm, no.
	1:56pm βrian: Which kind of rabbit pellets is that? That is, posterior or Anterior?
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: These lunatics covered all of "Pussy Cats."
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: Goodnight Beantown (full circle!)
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: And "The Magician"...
	1:59pm annie: that "Hulk" thing may have been a contract fulfillment thing.. ? even though it had a great run, i never could dig it enough to enjoy it.
	2:02pm listener james from westwood: @Gaylord, most people never get past the gaseous atmosphere to risk contact w/ rabbit spoor. (gazes at freezer filled with chili and lentil soup)
	2:05pm Tate: Good show so far. Have to get ready and head to a Halloween parade to see a Kansas City Royal and Bob The Minion
	2:06pm still b/p: Minions like bean jokes.
	2:08pm annie: GREAT movie!!!
	2:08pm Uncle Michael: Have fun in KC, Tate. Go Royals.
	2:09pm annie: they turned that stage set into a tourist attraction village. this was, to me, the best translation of a comic to a live-action film..
	2:10pm Mike East: I love Popeye. Bought for 5 bucks at the grocery store a few years back.
	2:11pm annie: "You owe me an apology."
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: hey Mike. I like seeing Bill Irwin in it!
	2:11pm annie: Such an obscure movie quote i rarely use it...
	2:14pm Parq: That Food number isn't as bad as I remember thinking it was when I saw the movie with a date 35 years ago, but Lord, it isn't great.
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: No, not great...but it's got Wimpy.
	2:16pm Mike East: "He's Large" is my personal favorite.
	2:16pm Peter Nelson: Apparently, the whole crew was very, very, very stoned for the making of that movie. I loved it.
	2:17pm still b/p: This just in from Snobville: I had a look at a few minutes of Goodnight Beantown because it barely rang a bell. Everything about those few minutes has that bland, irritating network TV awfulness...the open title/credit sequence, the would-be banter, the Hallmark ad. Need to give senses a powerful wash and antidote now.
	2:18pm Uncle Michael: Hey Peter!
	2:18pm Uncle Michael: You nailed it, still b/p.
	2:26pm annie: i had the privilege to have shown "Popeye" to a young frind last year, he'd never seen it. he was 11 and LOVED it.. was very scared for swee-pea at the end bit.
	2:30pm Goyim in the AM: www.youtube.com...
	2:34pm P-90: Ray Walston WAS an inspired choice for Poopdeck Pappy. The kind of casting where you couldn't imagine anyone else in the role after you'd seen him.
	2:34pm Uncle Michael: That's great annie. That does get scary. Thanks for that link GitAM.
	2:35pm P-90: -and Bill Irwin is a treat to watch in ANYthing.
	2:36pm Uncle Michael: Have you seen Regard of Flight?
	2:38pm annie: just bookmarked it for tonight UM!! thanks.. maybe Bill Irwin marathon is due..
	2:39pm Uncle Michael: Youtube brought Regard of Flight back from the abyss. Genius work.
	2:41pm annie: i use putlocker if they have it...otherwise, YT it is
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: There's always one...I sure coulda cut this song from the show...sorry Al.
	2:43pm annie: i saw him in some movie a few years ago... astounding portayal of a very unusual character. wish i could remember the nane of the movie
	2:47pm P-90: Wow! Glad to se the complete "Regard of Flight" on YTube! A great opportunity to revisit it after many years.
	2:47pm Uncle Michael: Is The Clown Bagatelles there too?
	2:51pm P-90: The Clown Bagatelles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94r249gfA90
	2:52pm Goyim in the AM: Rhymes with rockin'.
	2:52pm Uncle Michael: I does! Thanks for the link P-90.
	2:52pm annie: guess it's YT for me tonight then.
	2:54pm Doug Schulkind: 100% is definitely NOT the loneliest number. THANK YOU TO ALL GTDR FAITHFUL FOR HAULING BOTH FRIDAY RADIO SHOWS HERE ON THE DRUMMER STREAM ACROSS THE PLEDGE RUBICON!!!!!!

	2:56pm Uncle Michael: I'd love one! I have Zabars in the freezer. Thanks Kevin.
	2:58pm Doug Schulkind: WFMU just ticked up to 89%! Tick...tick...tick...tick...

	3:02pm listener james from westwood: Smashing idea for a theme show today, UM!
	3:02pm Uncle Michael: Thanks Mike...stay safe trick or treating.
	3:03pm Uncle Michael: Thanks James.
	3:03pm Erella: Great, great show.
	3:03pm Doug Schulkind: GTDR Faithful, meet your cousin Marianne!
	3:03pm Parq: Anybody else think Marianne F is a hundred times more alluring now than when she was a kid? This is a great song from a great album.
	🛒 3:03pm KevinfromBayRidge: Love HDT OT!
	3:04pm Uncle Michael: Thank you Erella.
	3:04pm Erella: How would we find this radio show if we wanted to hear it again? Is there a handy link?
	3:04pm Uncle Michael: Sudden death OT. Don't forget me!

	3:05pm Dean: @Erella: http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/63308

	3:08pm Dean: Obnoxious?! You are too charitable.
	3:09pm Alex In Illinois: I got to hear some more Wiyos
	3:10pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone!
	3:10pm Erella: Thank you
