	9:21am holland oats: allrightallrightallright
	9:24am Rich in NC: Good morning all,hey Uncle Michael, nice opening set
	9:27am doctorjazz: Theme for the Trump era, eh?...
	9:31am mauri: tune in. where are the sandwiches?
	9:32am northguineahills: I know not to talk to my brothers until tomorrow. They're huge Cubs fans, and take sports too seriously (They make a pilgrimage to Wrigley every year).
	9:34am northguineahills: I usually don't buy 45s/7"s as they usually much more expensive per weight/per time of sound offered. Which is why I only have a little more then two shoe boxes of the format
	9:35am Stanley: I'm home and have assumed the position. Hi Unc. Hi listeners.
	9:37am melinda: Hi UM
	9:37am Uncle Michael: Welcome and thank you, recent arrivals!
	9:37am joe: To the best of my knowledge bandwidth is one of he highest expenditures the station has
	9:39am Parq: Hi, UM and all. Great GIF. Great after-midnight, too. Just happened to see the first Taz Devil cartoon last night.
	9:41am Uncle Michael: Thanks, Parq.
	9:42am Parq: This Janis Ian single always grabs me right at the center, especially since I remember when it was and what the world was when it came out. The last verse is such a heartbreaker.
	9:43am annie: parq: yes..... such a radical tune for its day, i loe it to this day.
	9:44am Parq: Noooo! You clipped the Fafisa riff!
	9:45am Artie: Oh c'mon, just let her already!
	9:45am doctorjazz: Had a stationary store down the block from my elementary school, used to have near hits and other "cut outs" for $0.25, picked up lots of them from there, but went to albums by the time I was in High School.
	9:51am Rich in NC: outstanding tune
	9:52am annie: man, these tunes are so classic and everlasting!!! timeless messages.
	9:53am Rich in NC: make someone smile
	9:56am joe: And Uncle Michael's approval in France goes up 7 points
	10:01am coelacanth∅: 'morning Uncle M and dinklers
	10:01am Parq: Uncle Michael is a genius in France.
	10:01am Dominick: ain't got no shoes on!
	10:01am Uncle Michael: I've never been to France...and that explains a lot.
	🛒 10:09am Brian in UK: Hello Uncle The older you get the greater the band width.
	10:10am Lewis: @Brian in UK - nicely said...
	10:11am Parq: Dominick, I recognize the little lion on your WFMU Friendship page but I can't place it and Google image search is no help. Clue me in, couldja?
	10:14am northguineahills: Wait, I didn't vote for Doug? !!!(I would if I could).
	10:15am joe: @Parq Senor Wences. It's Ok It's Alright
	10:16am listener james from westwood: Bread is never punishment.
	10:16am joe: PUnishment?! I LOVE BREAD
	10:16am davefromtoronto: hey did you forget? no guilty pleasures! david gates in great.
	10:17am Lewis: while not a huge Bread fan - I do like the ambience of the vinyl...
	10:18am Parq: Coulda been worse. Coulda been that stupid song from the Neil Simon movie.
	10:19am Parq: Joe, no, go to his page (click on his icon) and look at the pics at the bottom of the page.
	10:19am Uncle Michael: I don't feel guilty.
	10:21am joe: @Parq oh sorry about that.
	10:21am Uncle Michael: Welcome new arrivals!
	10:22am Uncle Michael: Please pledge....please?
	10:24am coelacanth∅: i'm curious about the bside to the bread 7". the grateful dead song? -and if it's not, it still doesn't seem like a likely title for a bread song.
	10:24am Uncle Michael: No, a different song...a rocker.
	10:25am Uncle Michael: I'll play it!
	10:25am doctorjazz: Nice version of Toot's Pressure drop. For a second thought it was a Toots version I didn't know...
	🛒 10:27am Brian in UK: Early Robert Palmer with Little Feat backing is priceless.
	10:27am coelacanth∅: UM - cool!
	10:30am coelacanth∅: wow!
	10:30am Little Danny: Good morning UM and friends
	10:30am coelacanth∅: didn't see that coming
	10:34am Uncle Michael: Good morning new arrivals!
	10:39am coelacanth∅: feelin' alright is probably partially responsible for me really liking to hear different versions by different people of songs. - as a child i marveled at the fact that between my brother & i we had 5 versions of it in the house...and their subtle and not subtle differences.
	10:40am Asheville Jon: gotta love Merle
	10:41am northguineahills: Merle!
	10:41am Asheville Jon: this anaheim set was really killer Merle
	10:43am melinda: I love live Rainbow Stew.
	10:44am Uncle Michael: I'm not aware of a non-live version....and it should be said, that was "live"...if you get my drift.
	10:46am melinda: I thought I came across a non-live version that was inferior, but I could be wrong.
	10:46am Asheville Jon: yeah, it was recorded in anaheim. great set overall. many videos on the tube of you. www.latimes.com...
	10:47am Uncle Michael: The record is so heavily sweetened...
	10:48am Asheville Jon: indeed UM
	10:51am Lewis: Buck Owens had such and amazing sound!
	10:51am joe: UM I love your country sets sooooooooooo much. You and Joe McG have the best country sets.
	10:52am Stanley: What joe just said
	10:53am redkayak: Big Buck :)
	10:54am Uncle Michael: Thanks, friends.
	10:54am melinda: @joe I agree. (Not including the genre show Honky Tonk Girl).
	10:56am Rich in NC: Just beautiful
	10:56am melinda: No offense intended, just thought I'd mention it in case any country fans didn't already know about it.
	10:57am joe: @melinda Pffft no I hate that show. Just kidding :p . totally agree.
	10:58am Lewis: @melinda - following in Laura Cantrell's footprints?
	10:58am melinda: haha
	11:00am melinda: @lewis Laura Cantrell was before my time as an FMU listener, but I've heard great things about her show.
	🛒 11:01am Brian in UK: I got a thirst you could photograph.
	11:01am Stanley: I got a thirst you could knit a sweater with
	11:02am Henry: we know who's behind that green door (MC)
	11:02am Parq: As long as we're reminiscing about FMU country shows, may I mention Betsy Nichols? She was not on the air for long but she left an indelible footprint.
	🛒 11:03am Brian in UK: @melinda, Laura is great live and as a DJ. She took my first pledge. You always remember the first!! @Stanley that would be an Arran laddie.
	11:03am Lewis: Laura had great knowledge and was great for putting things in historical context. And a wonderful radio presence including her sometimes visitor Miss Q...
	11:03am Stanley: ... no really and beer time's approaching
	11:03am Parq: Betsy is the female voice on Michael Shelley's "cool cats" ID clips, and it's also worth noting that Michael himself has done a lot for the cause of shitkicker on FMU.
	11:05am Lewis: I have one of Betsy's premiums - worth picking up as a warehouse premium if you get the chance.
	🛒 11:06am Brian in UK: Uncle has got his folks records out of the box.
	🛒 11:07am Brian in UK: @Stanley watch out for Storm Brian comin' atcha. Really.
	11:09am listener james from westwood: All I can think is Elaine yelling, "Maybe the dingo ate your baby!"
	11:09am Uncle Michael: Rolf freed the slaves.
	11:09am annie: i had this album, my kid LOVED to play it..... over and over..
	11:11am The Oscar: One of my proudest conversational moments: ME: Did Rolf Harris wind up going to jail? MY BOSS: I think he's appealing. ME: Ugh, really? I don't.
	11:11am annie: i think this is one of the songs that gave my kid a strange sense of humour
	11:12am Doug Schulkind: I'm still feeling bad about the kangaroo.
	11:13am Uncle Michael: Doug! Mind if I run short?
	11:16am Lewis: holy sh** - this one is a bit dark...
	11:16am 67tele: It ain't workin - I'm still here
	11:16am Doug Schulkind: I do not have extra to pick up the slack, UM.
	11:16am Uncle Michael: (kidding)
	11:19am Doug Schulkind: My afro (or as it was called, Isro) was bigger than Bernie's on Room 222.
	11:19am The Oscar: Back when I worked in the music department at a major chain bookstore, there was an unstable balloon clown who would come in regularly and buy nothing but Lou Monte CDs. He eventually literally exhausted the warehouse's supply.
	11:22am Wendy del Formaggio: Hey Uncle Michael! Just checking in to say hello. I'm busy writing, but I'm listening and enjoying the show. Hope you're doing well.
	11:22am Dean: Barclay James Harvest's "Suicide" ends with the sound of the rush of air as the protagonist falls from a highrise, and then...silence. Suicide...or was he pushed?
	11:24am doctorjazz: I used to LOVE Laura Cantrell's show on FMU, The Radio Thrift Shop (still up in the archives, I believe). I'll date myself, used to listen to her before that, on WKCR, where she did a country music show. Just noticed the Honkey Tonk Country Girl show, haven't had a chance to check it out. Do love UM's country sets, as said by others here.
	11:24am Uncle Michael: "splat" or it didn't happen
	11:24am Uncle Michael: Hi Wendy...busier than a something in a something!
	11:25am Lewis: @doctorjazz - ditto on the early Laura listening...
	11:26am Dean: They sang it night after night in concert, so of course it didn't happen. But the song was delivered from the victim's perspective, hence the silence that coincides with his arrival upon the sidewalk. Been collecting Laura Cantrell records since hearing them on this station. A happy discovery.
	11:27am joe: @parq just so you know I am negelecting my proper work duties looking for this lion
	11:28am doctorjazz: Same here, seen Laura Cantrell a few times, (once at Monty Hall, with Michael Shelly opening), she puts on a fine show.
	11:30am burke: I once knew a Hot Ginger.
	11:33am Uncle Michael: So BJH's tribute to Donny, Dean? Too soon?
	11:36am Webhamster Henry: Can Al Hirt's Java be far behind?
	11:37am Dean: Not even. The lyrics are a little too clever and cute, although I do like the reference to "a [night]club called The Loser." I'd go to that club!
	11:38am Doug Schulkind: We've lost you, UM!
	11:38am coelacanth∅: did apollo 100 just disintegrate?
	11:38am Dean: Whu happ'n?
	11:38am coelacanth∅: ...lost in space?
	11:38am Dean: I get it. UM's ending the show the way Bill Withers ended the song. Pulled the plug.
	11:38am annie: i bet it did coel
	11:39am 67tele: Uncle Michael...are you there? talk to me lil buddy
	11:39am doctorjazz: No sound on this end...
	11:40am Webhamster Henry: This is Perez Prado's cover of 4'33"
	11:40am joe: He's playing John Cage
	11:40am Rich in Washington: ..this is the water, and this is the well...
	11:40am Webhamster Henry: Please stand by while Uncle Michael changes the needle.
	11:40am Dean: Shhhh! You're in church. And he's playing the Cage 45 at 33 1/3.
	11:41am Wendy del Formaggio: I have a feeling they're experiencing technical difficulties. "Please stand by." You can sing some Muzak to yourself right now if you like.
	11:41am Webhamster Henry: Say Wendy, what's the latest in Cheese news?
	11:41am Rich in Washington: 74.82.59.197...
	11:41am Dean: My singing Muzak to myself is itself a technical difficulty.
	11:42am Rich in Washington: I can hear you!
	11:42am coelacanth∅: YES!
	11:42am Doug Schulkind: We hear you!
	11:42am Asheville Jon: i can hear you speaking, no music
	11:42am annie: yes!!!!
	11:42am 67tele: yes i can
	11:42am The Oscar: You're live!
	11:42am joe: Yes we can
	11:42am burke: I can hear you!
	11:42am Lizardner Dave: yes.
	11:42am holland oats: i hear that
	11:42am Wendy del Formaggio: Well, WMHenry, I don't know where you are, but here in VT it's getting colder (slowly but surely), so that makes a person just want to eat more cheese. That's my news!
	11:42am redkayak: Loud and clear in Chicago
	11:43am Dean: Fight the power company!
	11:43am Doug Schulkind: Just remember, Uncle Michael, it's better to be pissed off than pissed on.
	11:43am coelacanth∅: those Fuckers!
	11:43am redkayak: I thought you were playing John Cage
	11:43am Alex in Illinois: NOW, I can. There were some minutes of silence, but I thought it was my smartphone.
	11:43am annie: crackles!!
	11:44am Wendy del Formaggio: Ooh, there we go. Surface noise and all. Yay!
	11:44am Rich in NC: Hey Wendy, I enjoy hearing you on the morning show,!
	11:44am joe: Michael remeber they were just doing what they were told. Don't hurt him.
	11:44am Doug Schulkind: God is fucking with you for that "mind if I run short" gag.
	11:45am joe: @Wendy that's the second Joe McG refrence today :)
	11:45am Alex in Illinois: @redkayak: HAHAHA HAWHAWHAW!
	11:45am Wendy del Formaggio: Thanks, Rich! We've had some technical difficulties these last few weeks, but next Friday there's a new episode in the can. Stay tuned!
	11:45am Rich in Washington: @Doug: HA!
	11:46am coelacanth∅: just do what Doug said...piss out the window on 'em. - that IS what you meant, right, Doug?
	11:46am paul b: Uncle Michael I can hear you now, but not the previous 3 minutes Sorry thought it was my end. [the Oscar : loved that Rolf Harris bit]
	11:46am Dean: This Chuck Miller tune is not the one spinning when the lights went out.
	11:46am Wendy del Formaggio: Joe, there's always room for a Joe McG reference! RAY-DEE-OH. What what what what?
	11:47am joe: Wendy no arguments there Yup Yup Yup
	11:47am Webhamster Henry: @Wendy I'm in Kingston, NY, about an hour and a half away from the VT border. There's some nice cheese here too, but the main cheese producing regions of NY are spread out upstate!
	11:48am Doug Schulkind: @Webhamster Henry/Wendy del Formaggio Cheese spread. Mmmmmm.
	11:49am annie: wendy, you'll be sad to hear that pretty much the only cheese i'm using now is nice butterkaas.., have to cut it in slices and freeze it; it molds way too fast..
	11:49am Rich in Washington: Uncle Michael: Give the electrical workers what for.
	11:50am Uncle Michael: I said bad words loud enough to be heard two blockes away. I said it and I'm glad. That Electric Co. woman had her day ruined.
	11:50am Wendy del Formaggio: WMHenry: Oh sure, I know Kingston. A friend lived there long ago. You have some fab cheesemakers in northern NY. I went to a nice little cheese fest in Little Falls (NY) over the summer and was really impressed by some of the wares there.
	11:51am coelacanth∅: they shouldn't be allowed to do that without warning.
	11:51am Wendy del Formaggio: Annie, I have some butterkaas in the fridge now. I got it at Aldi's! Cheap! Okay, y'all, I love you all, but I have to get back to writing. Happy Cheese Day! (that's every day)
	11:51am doctorjazz: Thanks UM, great show as usual!
	11:52am Dean: Pacific Gas & Electric--the folks who blew up San Bruno all to shit a few years back--are my power company. I know, it's passive-aggressive and whatever, but I routinely write "Fuck PG&E" on every monthly check I write to them. And yeah, I write checks.
	11:52am Uncle Michael: They knocked. I have headphones on. First thing I asked was was it an emergency. Last thing I said was never ever again.
	11:52am annie: hey doug, i think that electric worker is on her way to your house... be alert!!
	🛒 11:53am Brian in UK: Only on Shingles Week.
	11:53am annie: it was a great shew, UM... rilly great!
	🛒 11:55am Brian in UK: Who wrote Kansas City?
	11:55am 67tele: I guess no Wichita Lineman today, eh? sorry I felt i had to do that. dont know why
	11:57am listener james from westwood: Many thanks, UM!
	11:58am burke: Keep the juice flowin'. Thanks UM
	11:58am coelacanth∅: Excellent program! Thanks Uncle M
	11:59am listener james from westwood: 45s this week, '78s next week!
	12:00pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, Freinds!
	12:00pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, UM! Power to the people!
	12:00pm coelacanth∅: (and don't stress about that rocket crashing' we didn't need that "joy" anyway)

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from October 20, 2017

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.

	9:27am doctorjazz: Theme for the Trump era, eh?...
	9:31am mauri: tune in. where are the sandwiches?
	9:32am northguineahills: I know not to talk to my brothers until tomorrow. They're huge Cubs fans, and take sports too seriously (They make a pilgrimage to Wrigley every year).
	9:34am northguineahills: I usually don't buy 45s/7"s as they usually much more expensive per weight/per time of sound offered. Which is why I only have a little more then two shoe boxes of the format
	9:35am Stanley: I'm home and have assumed the position. Hi Unc. Hi listeners.
	9:37am melinda: Hi UM

	9:39am Parq: Hi, UM and all. Great GIF. Great after-midnight, too. Just happened to see the first Taz Devil cartoon last night.
	9:41am Uncle Michael: Thanks, Parq.
	9:42am Parq: This Janis Ian single always grabs me right at the center, especially since I remember when it was and what the world was when it came out. The last verse is such a heartbreaker.
	9:43am annie: parq: yes..... such a radical tune for its day, i loe it to this day.
	9:44am Parq: Noooo! You clipped the Fafisa riff!
	9:45am Artie: Oh c'mon, just let her already!
	9:45am doctorjazz: Had a stationary store down the block from my elementary school, used to have near hits and other "cut outs" for $0.25, picked up lots of them from there, but went to albums by the time I was in High School.
	9:51am Rich in NC: outstanding tune
	9:52am annie: man, these tunes are so classic and everlasting!!! timeless messages.
	9:53am Rich in NC: make someone smile

	10:01am coelacanth∅: 'morning Uncle M and dinklers
	10:01am Parq: Uncle Michael is a genius in France.
	10:01am Dominick: ain't got no shoes on!
	10:01am Uncle Michael: I've never been to France...and that explains a lot.
	🛒 10:09am Brian in UK: Hello Uncle The older you get the greater the band width.
	10:10am Lewis: @Brian in UK - nicely said...
	10:11am Parq: Dominick, I recognize the little lion on your WFMU Friendship page but I can't place it and Google image search is no help. Clue me in, couldja?
	10:14am northguineahills: Wait, I didn't vote for Doug? !!!(I would if I could).
	10:15am joe: @Parq Senor Wences. It's Ok It's Alright
	10:16am listener james from westwood: Bread is never punishment.
	10:16am joe: PUnishment?! I LOVE BREAD
	10:16am davefromtoronto: hey did you forget? no guilty pleasures! david gates in great.
	10:17am Lewis: while not a huge Bread fan - I do like the ambience of the vinyl...
	10:18am Parq: Coulda been worse. Coulda been that stupid song from the Neil Simon movie.
	10:19am Parq: Joe, no, go to his page (click on his icon) and look at the pics at the bottom of the page.
	10:19am Uncle Michael: I don't feel guilty.
	10:21am joe: @Parq oh sorry about that.
	10:21am Uncle Michael: Welcome new arrivals!
	10:22am Uncle Michael: Please pledge....please?
	10:24am coelacanth∅: i'm curious about the bside to the bread 7". the grateful dead song? -and if it's not, it still doesn't seem like a likely title for a bread song.
	10:24am Uncle Michael: No, a different song...a rocker.
	10:25am Uncle Michael: I'll play it!
	10:25am doctorjazz: Nice version of Toot's Pressure drop. For a second thought it was a Toots version I didn't know...
	🛒 10:27am Brian in UK: Early Robert Palmer with Little Feat backing is priceless.
	10:27am coelacanth∅: UM - cool!
	10:30am coelacanth∅: wow!
	10:30am Little Danny: Good morning UM and friends
	10:30am coelacanth∅: didn't see that coming
	10:34am Uncle Michael: Good morning new arrivals!
	10:39am coelacanth∅: feelin' alright is probably partially responsible for me really liking to hear different versions by different people of songs. - as a child i marveled at the fact that between my brother & i we had 5 versions of it in the house...and their subtle and not subtle differences.
	10:40am Asheville Jon: gotta love Merle
	10:41am northguineahills: Merle!
	10:41am Asheville Jon: this anaheim set was really killer Merle
	10:43am melinda: I love live Rainbow Stew.
	10:44am Uncle Michael: I'm not aware of a non-live version....and it should be said, that was "live"...if you get my drift.
	10:46am melinda: I thought I came across a non-live version that was inferior, but I could be wrong.
	10:46am Asheville Jon: yeah, it was recorded in anaheim. great set overall. many videos on the tube of you. www.latimes.com...
	10:47am Uncle Michael: The record is so heavily sweetened...
	10:48am Asheville Jon: indeed UM
	10:51am Lewis: Buck Owens had such and amazing sound!
	10:51am joe: UM I love your country sets sooooooooooo much. You and Joe McG have the best country sets.
	10:52am Stanley: What joe just said
	10:53am redkayak: Big Buck :)
	10:54am Uncle Michael: Thanks, friends.
	10:54am melinda: @joe I agree. (Not including the genre show Honky Tonk Girl).
	10:56am Rich in NC: Just beautiful
	10:56am melinda: No offense intended, just thought I'd mention it in case any country fans didn't already know about it.
	10:57am joe: @melinda Pffft no I hate that show. Just kidding :p . totally agree.
	10:58am Lewis: @melinda - following in Laura Cantrell's footprints?
	10:58am melinda: haha
	11:00am melinda: @lewis Laura Cantrell was before my time as an FMU listener, but I've heard great things about her show.
	🛒 11:01am Brian in UK: I got a thirst you could photograph.
	11:01am Stanley: I got a thirst you could knit a sweater with
	11:02am Henry: we know who's behind that green door (MC)
	11:02am Parq: As long as we're reminiscing about FMU country shows, may I mention Betsy Nichols? She was not on the air for long but she left an indelible footprint.
	🛒 11:03am Brian in UK: @melinda, Laura is great live and as a DJ. She took my first pledge. You always remember the first!! @Stanley that would be an Arran laddie.
	11:03am Lewis: Laura had great knowledge and was great for putting things in historical context. And a wonderful radio presence including her sometimes visitor Miss Q...
	11:03am Stanley: ... no really and beer time's approaching
	11:03am Parq: Betsy is the female voice on Michael Shelley's "cool cats" ID clips, and it's also worth noting that Michael himself has done a lot for the cause of shitkicker on FMU.
	11:05am Lewis: I have one of Betsy's premiums - worth picking up as a warehouse premium if you get the chance.
	🛒 11:06am Brian in UK: Uncle has got his folks records out of the box.
	🛒 11:07am Brian in UK: @Stanley watch out for Storm Brian comin' atcha. Really.
	11:09am listener james from westwood: All I can think is Elaine yelling, "Maybe the dingo ate your baby!"
	11:09am Uncle Michael: Rolf freed the slaves.
	11:09am annie: i had this album, my kid LOVED to play it..... over and over..
	11:11am The Oscar: One of my proudest conversational moments: ME: Did Rolf Harris wind up going to jail? MY BOSS: I think he's appealing. ME: Ugh, really? I don't.
	11:11am annie: i think this is one of the songs that gave my kid a strange sense of humour
	11:12am Doug Schulkind: I'm still feeling bad about the kangaroo.
	11:13am Uncle Michael: Doug! Mind if I run short?
	11:16am Lewis: holy sh** - this one is a bit dark...
	11:16am 67tele: It ain't workin - I'm still here
	11:16am Doug Schulkind: I do not have extra to pick up the slack, UM.
	11:16am Uncle Michael: (kidding)
	11:19am Doug Schulkind: My afro (or as it was called, Isro) was bigger than Bernie's on Room 222.
	11:19am The Oscar: Back when I worked in the music department at a major chain bookstore, there was an unstable balloon clown who would come in regularly and buy nothing but Lou Monte CDs. He eventually literally exhausted the warehouse's supply.
	11:22am Wendy del Formaggio: Hey Uncle Michael! Just checking in to say hello. I'm busy writing, but I'm listening and enjoying the show. Hope you're doing well.
	11:22am Dean: Barclay James Harvest's "Suicide" ends with the sound of the rush of air as the protagonist falls from a highrise, and then...silence. Suicide...or was he pushed?
	11:24am doctorjazz: I used to LOVE Laura Cantrell's show on FMU, The Radio Thrift Shop (still up in the archives, I believe). I'll date myself, used to listen to her before that, on WKCR, where she did a country music show. Just noticed the Honkey Tonk Country Girl show, haven't had a chance to check it out. Do love UM's country sets, as said by others here.
	11:24am Uncle Michael: "splat" or it didn't happen
	11:24am Uncle Michael: Hi Wendy...busier than a something in a something!
	11:25am Lewis: @doctorjazz - ditto on the early Laura listening...
	11:26am Dean: They sang it night after night in concert, so of course it didn't happen. But the song was delivered from the victim's perspective, hence the silence that coincides with his arrival upon the sidewalk. Been collecting Laura Cantrell records since hearing them on this station. A happy discovery.
	11:27am joe: @parq just so you know I am negelecting my proper work duties looking for this lion
	11:28am doctorjazz: Same here, seen Laura Cantrell a few times, (once at Monty Hall, with Michael Shelly opening), she puts on a fine show.
	11:30am burke: I once knew a Hot Ginger.
	11:33am Uncle Michael: So BJH's tribute to Donny, Dean? Too soon?
	11:36am Webhamster Henry: Can Al Hirt's Java be far behind?
	11:37am Dean: Not even. The lyrics are a little too clever and cute, although I do like the reference to "a [night]club called The Loser." I'd go to that club!
	11:38am Doug Schulkind: We've lost you, UM!
	11:38am coelacanth∅: did apollo 100 just disintegrate?
	11:38am Dean: Whu happ'n?
	11:38am coelacanth∅: ...lost in space?
	11:38am Dean: I get it. UM's ending the show the way Bill Withers ended the song. Pulled the plug.
	11:38am annie: i bet it did coel
	11:39am 67tele: Uncle Michael...are you there? talk to me lil buddy
	11:39am doctorjazz: No sound on this end...
	11:40am Webhamster Henry: This is Perez Prado's cover of 4'33"
	11:40am joe: He's playing John Cage
	11:40am Rich in Washington: ..this is the water, and this is the well...
	11:40am Webhamster Henry: Please stand by while Uncle Michael changes the needle.
	11:40am Dean: Shhhh! You're in church. And he's playing the Cage 45 at 33 1/3.
	11:41am Wendy del Formaggio: I have a feeling they're experiencing technical difficulties. "Please stand by." You can sing some Muzak to yourself right now if you like.
	11:41am Webhamster Henry: Say Wendy, what's the latest in Cheese news?
	11:41am Rich in Washington: 74.82.59.197...
	11:41am Dean: My singing Muzak to myself is itself a technical difficulty.
	11:42am Rich in Washington: I can hear you!
	11:42am coelacanth∅: YES!
	11:42am Doug Schulkind: We hear you!
	11:42am Asheville Jon: i can hear you speaking, no music
	11:42am annie: yes!!!!
	11:42am 67tele: yes i can
	11:42am The Oscar: You're live!
	11:42am joe: Yes we can
	11:42am burke: I can hear you!
	11:42am Lizardner Dave: yes.
	11:42am holland oats: i hear that
	11:42am Wendy del Formaggio: Well, WMHenry, I don't know where you are, but here in VT it's getting colder (slowly but surely), so that makes a person just want to eat more cheese. That's my news!
	11:42am redkayak: Loud and clear in Chicago
	11:43am Dean: Fight the power company!
	11:43am Doug Schulkind: Just remember, Uncle Michael, it's better to be pissed off than pissed on.
	11:43am coelacanth∅: those Fuckers!
	11:43am redkayak: I thought you were playing John Cage
	11:43am Alex in Illinois: NOW, I can. There were some minutes of silence, but I thought it was my smartphone.
	11:43am annie: crackles!!
	11:44am Wendy del Formaggio: Ooh, there we go. Surface noise and all. Yay!
	11:44am Rich in NC: Hey Wendy, I enjoy hearing you on the morning show,!
	11:44am joe: Michael remeber they were just doing what they were told. Don't hurt him.
	11:44am Doug Schulkind: God is fucking with you for that "mind if I run short" gag.
	11:45am joe: @Wendy that's the second Joe McG refrence today :)
	11:45am Alex in Illinois: @redkayak: HAHAHA HAWHAWHAW!
	11:45am Wendy del Formaggio: Thanks, Rich! We've had some technical difficulties these last few weeks, but next Friday there's a new episode in the can. Stay tuned!
	11:45am Rich in Washington: @Doug: HA!
	11:46am coelacanth∅: just do what Doug said...piss out the window on 'em. - that IS what you meant, right, Doug?
	11:46am paul b: Uncle Michael I can hear you now, but not the previous 3 minutes Sorry thought it was my end. [the Oscar : loved that Rolf Harris bit]
	11:46am Dean: This Chuck Miller tune is not the one spinning when the lights went out.
	11:46am Wendy del Formaggio: Joe, there's always room for a Joe McG reference! RAY-DEE-OH. What what what what?
	11:47am joe: Wendy no arguments there Yup Yup Yup
	11:47am Webhamster Henry: @Wendy I'm in Kingston, NY, about an hour and a half away from the VT border. There's some nice cheese here too, but the main cheese producing regions of NY are spread out upstate!
	11:48am Doug Schulkind: @Webhamster Henry/Wendy del Formaggio Cheese spread. Mmmmmm.
	11:49am annie: wendy, you'll be sad to hear that pretty much the only cheese i'm using now is nice butterkaas.., have to cut it in slices and freeze it; it molds way too fast..
	11:49am Rich in Washington: Uncle Michael: Give the electrical workers what for.
	11:50am Uncle Michael: I said bad words loud enough to be heard two blockes away. I said it and I'm glad. That Electric Co. woman had her day ruined.
	11:50am Wendy del Formaggio: WMHenry: Oh sure, I know Kingston. A friend lived there long ago. You have some fab cheesemakers in northern NY. I went to a nice little cheese fest in Little Falls (NY) over the summer and was really impressed by some of the wares there.
	11:51am coelacanth∅: they shouldn't be allowed to do that without warning.
	11:51am Wendy del Formaggio: Annie, I have some butterkaas in the fridge now. I got it at Aldi's! Cheap! Okay, y'all, I love you all, but I have to get back to writing. Happy Cheese Day! (that's every day)
	11:51am doctorjazz: Thanks UM, great show as usual!
	11:52am Dean: Pacific Gas & Electric--the folks who blew up San Bruno all to shit a few years back--are my power company. I know, it's passive-aggressive and whatever, but I routinely write "Fuck PG&E" on every monthly check I write to them. And yeah, I write checks.
	11:52am Uncle Michael: They knocked. I have headphones on. First thing I asked was was it an emergency. Last thing I said was never ever again.
	11:52am annie: hey doug, i think that electric worker is on her way to your house... be alert!!
	🛒 11:53am Brian in UK: Only on Shingles Week.
	11:53am annie: it was a great shew, UM... rilly great!
	🛒 11:55am Brian in UK: Who wrote Kansas City?
	11:55am 67tele: I guess no Wichita Lineman today, eh? sorry I felt i had to do that. dont know why
	11:57am listener james from westwood: Many thanks, UM!
	11:58am burke: Keep the juice flowin'. Thanks UM
