WFMU: Daniel Blumin: Playlist from February 21, 2020

Listener comments!
	9:01pm ultradamno: Way to brag, Wire.
	9:02pm fleep: Good evening DB. Bluminauts, assemble!
	9:02pm Stephen: saying hello D....
	🌫 9:03pm chresti: Hello Daniel and live wires!
	9:03pm Phil in Charlotte: Good evening Daniel and fellow travelers!
	9:04pm JakeGould: Sixth!
	9:05pm coelacanth∅: greetings Daniel & Blumindividualswithinahive
	9:05pm TDK60: Hello Daniel DJ and the radio people. I haven't heard the new Wire yet..
	9:08pm Uncle Michael: hi
	9:14pm Uncle Michael: Watching the playlist change without refreshing is hypnotic.
	9:15pm ultradamno: I like when you check in on a playlist of a show that's been in progress for awhile and the sidebar zooms to the bottom.
	9:16pm TDK60: Uncle, I was just wondering, does the playlist change in a new way? Or had I just not noticed before? These and other questions..
	9:16pm Uncle Michael: It's like like falling off a tall building.
	🌫 9:17pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Daniel and the Bluministry.
	9:17pm Uncle Michael: TDK, the new way has been in place for about a week. Yes, the main frame with the playlist no longer has to completely refersh to update.
	9:18pm JakeGould: @TDK60: The days of frames and “http-equiv="refresh"” are over. The page just loads and updates via JavaScript nowadays.
	🌫 9:18pm chresti: It's a smooth refresh, it used to jump
	9:18pm Uncle Michael: One effect is that images, if used, no longer have to reload over and over. Some large gifs couldn't completely load before a refresh.
	9:18pm coelacanth∅: TDK you may've had other things on your mind. how ya doing?
	9:20pm JakeGould: Also video streaming — if that still happens — can smoothly work without worrying about the main frame reloading.
	9:20pm Uncle Michael: The impact on a show like Ken's, with scads of gifs, must be huge.
	9:20pm TDK60: Uncle M. and Chresti, yes I thought I noticed a more easy flowing into the future.. ..Oh hi Coel, I've been reeling but somehow have resolved, here, not to even consider touching that dial.
	9:28pm coelacanth∅: TDK you have to i guess. i wont go there again; you know.
	9:28pm Daniel Blumin: Greetings and salutations ultrad, fleep, Stephen, chresti, Phil, JakeG, coela, TDK, Unc M, Ken, and the lurka posse!!! Welcome onboard!
	🌫 9:34pm chresti: Getting some splatters of rain here, in San Gabriel, CA
	9:37pm TDK60: I note the Savvas Metaxas is on a cassette, and we're twenty years into this next, great century.
	9:37pm Uncle Michael: I worked on my pepino limon agua fresca recipe tonight...almost there.
	9:39pm JakeGould: Sha-doobie… Splat-ters
	9:40pm Uncle Michael: I'm dressed in a plastic bag, directing traffic.
	🌫 9:42pm chresti: Pepino limon agua fresca sounds refreshing.
	9:43pm JakeGould: @UncleMichael: Were you in Portland, Oregon in 2016? Is this you? twitter.com...
	9:43pm ultradamno: HE WAS HELPING!!
	9:44pm davefromtoronto: altered states...
	9:45pm Uncle Michael: I was helping.
	9:46pm John from Florham park: Hello fellow listeners
	🌫 9:46pm chresti: Were you handing out pepina limon agua frescas?
	9:46pm JakeGould: Fine, fine, fine… You were helping. Portland Alerts is really my new fave thing. twitter.com...
	9:48pm John from Florham park: @Cheatei howdy Uncle Michael howdy
	🌫 9:48pm brycepunk1: Good evening Sir Blumin and everyone. Loving this David Fenech track.
	🌫 9:50pm chresti: Business as usual @Jake cheatei says howdy @John
	9:51pm John from Florham park: @chresti who is cheatel?
	9:51pm Mister Dobalina: Making this nites show so much more palatable.
	9:51pm TDK60: Chresti, this music almost makes me wanna pull out my pouch of sacred tea leaves...
	9:52pm John from Florham park: @TDK60 how are you doing
	9:52pm Mister Dobalina: up at 6:45am.
	9:53pm Phil in Charlotte: David Fenech track rocks! Diggin’ the whole set.
	🌫 9:53pm chresti: TDK60, if you do, I'd like some.
	9:54pm Uncle Michael: No, chresti. My trash bag had no pockets.
	9:54pm Daniel Blumin: Greetz John and glad you're oscillating happily, brycepunk & Phil! Mr. Dobalina, all hail!
	9:54pm George of Troy: Good evening, Daniel!
	9:55pm John from Florham park: Greetings back Daniel
	9:56pm Daniel Blumin: George!
	9:58pm Uncle Michael: Gonna push back the keyboard now. Night, all. See you in a few weeks, Daniel.
	9:58pm TDK60: Greetings John of F. P. I am okay for now..
	🌫 9:59pm chresti: Night UM.
	9:59pm JakeGould: @UncleMichael: Thanks for helping.
	10:01pm coelacanth∅: everything would be flowing smoothly if only more people were willing to put on their plastic bags and chip in at the intersections.
	10:02pm TDK60: Uncles need rest.
	10:02pm coelacanth∅: medal of freedom for you Uncle Michael.
	10:02pm John from Florham park: @TDK60 good to hear @Uncle Michael good night
	10:03pm John from Florham park: @Coelacanth howdy
	10:03pm ParUbi: Hey everyone, Приве́т Daniel
	🌫 10:04pm chresti: Especially helping uncles.
	10:04pm JakeGould: You really never hear of people randomly directing traffic in NYC.
	10:05pm John from Florham park: @Jakegould they would get most likely get run over
	10:05pm JakeGould: The main thing you get in NYC are people effed up and just literally in the middle of traffic. Even people in wheelchairs. Fully clothed.
	10:06pm coelacanth∅: hey John; Ubi...
	10:08pm JakeGould: Daniel, you are WFMU’s best Russian asset.
	10:08pm John from Florham park: @ajakegould no kidding although does make for some interesting scenes at times
	10:12pm tmoyo: RIP
	10:13pm Marie: Hi All, Happy Friday, I like this song. I'm about hal-way through an 18 oz chocolate babka. Yum.
	10:14pm John from Florham park: @Marie hope it is good
	10:17pm Mr. Pumpy: Hello all! Hello Dan! I'm here...and ready to rock out. Listened in the car a bit...awesome set so far.
	10:17pm Marie: Hey John, it is so good. I love babka. Along with some almond/coconut milk. But I have to put down the fork now. I must, I must...
	10:18pm ParUbi: What is Babka? Is that a kind of cake?
	10:18pm coelacanth∅: MMMBabka - hi Marie; Mr.P ...rest in peace Mr. Weatherall
	10:18pm Mr. Pumpy: I had a documentary on Ambrose Bierce paused from a week ago and my browser restarted and it played against The Sabres...took me about 45 seconds before I realized it wasn't from the track. It went well! Cool doc...www.youtube.com...
	10:19pm JakeGould: @ParUbi: Cheap fortified wine. Like MD 20/20.
	10:20pm Mr. Pumpy: coelacanth∅...what up?
	10:21pm Marie: Hey ParUbi, it is thin layers of moist pastry folded all over itself with filling in between the layers. I'm not sure what kind of pastry/cake it is. I bought it at Trader Joe's
	10:21pm John from Florham park: @Marie otherwise you might get diabetes from it
	10:22pm John from Florham park: @Mr pumpy howdy @Parubi howdy
	10:22pm Mr. Pumpy: Chocolate babka! Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode...
	10:22pm Daniel Blumin: tmoyo, good to see you here! Hi Marie & Mr. P! And hellooo, Babka!
	10:23pm John from Florham park: @Marie sounds yummy
	10:23pm Marie: Hey, it is a yeasty dough. John, I think I would have to eat 200 pounds of it to get diabetes
	10:24pm John from Florham park: @Narie my mistake then
	10:24pm ParUbi: That does sound yummy. Enjoy!
	10:24pm Mr. Pumpy: Hey, John, Para, Marie, Jake, chresti, TDK, ultra...and everyone else.
	10:25pm John from Florham park: I mean Maria now I need to get some sleep
	10:26pm Marie: Hey Mr. Pumpy. Gnite, John!
	10:27pm JakeGould: Here! mantoujoe.blogspot.com...
	10:27pm ParUbi: Good night, John!
	10:28pm ultradamno: Hiya Pumpy
	10:29pm Marie: I'll have to check out that seinfeld episode
	10:29pm ultradamno: Concentric oval cake
	10:30pm JakeGould: I hear “Seinfeld” is a popular show that makes very wry points about everyday life.
	10:31pm Hubig Pie: The package does'nt list any MD 20/20 or Night Train in the ingredients
	10:32pm Marie: @JakeGould--yes, I have heard that it has an obnoxious laughtrack that makes it unwatchable for certain people
	10:33pm Mr. Pumpy: Jake...if you haven't seen it (I may be missing some sarcasm) it is worth checking out with fresh eyes and ears. I rack them up lately as it is funny, but it also reminds me of late grandmother's infectious laugh. She loved the show and would crack up through the whole thing. She's been gone some time now, and I find it cathartically uplifting.
	10:34pm ParUbi: It's all about that bass, I hear
	10:35pm Mr. Pumpy: Yes...it does have a laugh-track, but at least most of it is genuine as it was filmed in front of a live audience for he majority of the scenes. It's one of the few laugh tracks I can do. Maybe All in the Family, Taxi, The Odd Couple...but not many others.
	10:35pm ultradamno: A Babeagleka? twitter.com...
	10:35pm Mr. Pumpy: This track is getting inside me.
	10:37pm Mod Mokka Matti: Hello Daniel, and all the peeps present. I am here, but may fall asleep in the sauna, after a physically exhausting day. I will likely still be listening subconsciously, absorbing everything like a sonic ShamWow. Apologies in advance.
	10:37pm ultradamno: It's hard to find a sit-com from that time, esp. on network TV that didn't (have an obnoxious laugh track). People had to be trained to notice how annoying it was.
	10:38pm ultradamno: I liked Newsradio.
	10:38pm coelacanth∅: yes i thought Seinfeld was filmed in front of an audience. so, they added a laughtrack too?
	10:39pm Marie: I actually couldn't watch it because of that laugh track but I kind of stopped watching TV for the most part in the late 80s. Hey MMM, I love "sonic ShamWow" What does that mean?
	10:39pm Daniel Blumin: MMM, sounds like you've got nothing to apologize fer!
	10:39pm ultradamno: "A combination was used during the taping of SEINFELD" www.quora.com...
	10:41pm JakeGould: Falling asleep in a sauna is something James Spader would do. Not judging!
	🌫 10:42pm chresti: Hi Mr. Pumpy. I stepped away to make tea..
	🌫 10:42pm Franco Twinkie: Wait, you mean Seinfeld had a laugh track? I though all that yucking it up was just the room mates we never saw.
	10:42pm Marie: I met James Spader once. He seemed kind of taken aback by my funky sunglasses, or maybe it was me. I said, "Hi Mr. Spader"--that's it :>)
	10:43pm JakeGould: @coelacanth∅: Being “filmed” in front of a live studio audience and them spontaneously laughing and perhaps that laughter being enhanced are all different things.
	10:43pm Mod Mokka Matti: I have to say that this current cut is hitting the spot.
	10:44pm Marie: @MMM---which spot?
	10:44pm coelacanth∅: thanks ultra d. i believe you! i'm a little surprised i never noticed...or maybe i just don't remember. (+ i didn't watch it all that many times, and it was 20+ years ago)
	10:45pm coelacanth∅: Franco, it was "friends"
	10:46pm ultradamno: It's trending right now Friends are returning. I assume the daily grind or perk or whatever their hangout was called will have a more geriatric feel to it now.
	🌫 10:46pm Franco Twinkie: Oh, okay. Who was the funny guy on that show?
	10:46pm ultradamno: Newman
	10:47pm Mr. Pumpy: Newman
	10:47pm TDK60: ..thanks for the tanzypantz Daniel, and all, I plan to leave that dial right where it is, but have to push the 'off' button for the night, gotta work in the morn.
	10:47pm Mr. Pumpy: @ultra...HA!
	10:47pm JakeGould: On “Seinfeld” it was everyone but Jerry. On “Friends” it was that monkey.
	10:48pm coelacanth∅: Franco, on friends? there was a funny guy?!
	10:48pm ultradamno: That's the power of Wayne Knight right there.
	10:48pm Ike: I never got into Seinfeld. I can't seem to enjoy comedies about awful human beings. (Dramas about awful human beings are fine with me though. Go figure.) The first 5 seasons of Futurama and Red Dwarf and first 8 or 9 seasons of The Simpsons are great. Bob's Burgers is good. But Seinfeld? No thanks, I hate those people.
	10:48pm Mod Mokka Matti: @Marie: I think I was attempting to be witty, and that my brain will still be taking in the broadcast, holding on to every note, blip, squeak, etc. - even if I'm "resting my eyes", as my late father was fond of saying.
	🌫 10:48pm chresti: Goodnight TDK60.
	10:49pm coelacanth∅: the characters in Seinfeld were all obnoxious; but at least they often actually acted like friends to each-other, as opposed to the "friends" on "friends"
	10:49pm JakeGould: Sorry to say I will never joyfully or willfully watch “Seinfeld” again. I just don’t like it. I respect whatever anyone else likes, but I can’t.
	10:49pm ultradamno: The friends monkey has got to be to good for the reunion now that he's worked with David Lynch. www.tvguide.com...
	10:49pm choggie: this is the music music that's playing in the background when you're drowning in the Bermuda Triangle
	🌫 10:49pm Franco Twinkie: Man, I think I'm confusing that show with Gumby.
	10:49pm coelacanth∅: ...(actually that one guy was decent 1/2 the time)
	10:50pm ultradamno: ...too good...grrr.
	10:50pm JakeGould: I will say I would like to see that new “Little Women” and I never want to see “Marriage Story” because neither of the leads are good actors in IMHO.
	10:50pm choggie: just show me on the dolphin where the man from Atlantis touched you
	10:50pm JakeGould: I would watch Eddie Murphy do “Gumby” forever.
	10:50pm coelacanth∅: Franco hahaha! must be
	10:51pm Mod Mokka Matti: Wait, what? "Friends" is coming back? Wow, I sure am out of the mainstream pop-culture loop these days.
	10:51pm ultradamno: I'm exactly the opposite on the previously hidden Little Women/Marriage Story divide.
	10:52pm ultradamno: @MMM yeah, on HBO I think.
	10:52pm retard_riot: Dance music for Craspedotropis gretathunberga
	🌫 10:52pm chresti: I've not seen Friends
	10:52pm JakeGould: @MMM: It’s a “Friends” reunion special. And apparently there is a similar thing happening for “Mad About You?” The advent of streaming means that all of this C, D, E, F and G level TV show and movie ideas are finally getting a chance to be realized… Which is not great.
	10:53pm Jinx: cool set!
	🌫 10:54pm chresti: This Neil Campbell is very nice,
	10:55pm coelacanth∅: excellent
	10:55pm Ike: @chresti, you didn't miss anything. Any one minute of this radio show is infinitely more interesting.
	10:55pm JakeGould: Also it is — personally — weird to me because in the 1970s and 1980s even the worst schools made efforts to limit TV watching in kids. Which was a decent idea in a way. Now it’s all about “binging.” Like dunk 2-3 bottles of cold brew and watch 12 hours of a TV show straight and that’s normal? Nah…
	10:55pm Mr. Pumpy: I thought someone was banging on my door!
	10:56pm JakeGould: Who’s being spanked?
	10:57pm Daniel Blumin: Thanks, Jinx & chresti!
	10:57pm ultradamno: I was at Meijer the other day and saw they had an Amazon Fire "for kids" for $125. Even adjusted for inflation I can't imagine my parents giving that kind of tech at 8 or whatever.
	10:58pm JakeGould: There are toddler chairs with iPad holders… So there you go!
	10:58pm Greg: Dope beats Blumim.
	10:58pm melinda: hi Daniel and friends
	10:58pm Hubig Pie: Enjoying these hypnotic tunes. Gotta go feed my birds now
	11:00pm Marie: Yeah, digging the music, fer sher, Daniel!
	11:01pm JakeGould: Well, going to head off to bed and maybe watch a rerun of some old fashioned TV show like a normal person! THANKS DANIEL!
	11:02pm ultradamno: These are them, padded for protection I guess, though I'm not what protects the kids from Amazon o.aolcdn.com...
	11:02pm ultradamno: not..sure...
	11:03pm ultradamno: And "Sam" evidently owns all three.
	11:04pm ParUbi: Hi melinda!
	11:05pm JakeGould: Utterly not what I meant. I mean this: Kids potty with iPad mount. https://b3h2.scene7.com/is/image/BedBathandBeyond/30676141768105p?$690$&wid=690&hei=690
	11:06pm coelacanth∅: what in hell is that?! it looks like the near-future landfill crap that they try to make me participate in when i go to the doctor's office.
	11:07pm ParUbi: There was that one millisecond which was particularly scrumptious
	11:07pm coelacanth∅: (ultra d)
	11:07pm ultradamno: No, it wasn't what you meant, it was what I meant.
	11:07pm Mod Mokka Matti: I just can't imagine what is like to be a kid now. I don't have any children, am not around them often, and being a 70s/80s kid makes me feel increasingly ancient. It's laughable that some of the more "advanced" toys I had were Electronic Battleship, Big Trak, Atari 2600, and the like. Most everything else at that age was Lego, Tonka trucks, Hot Wheels, construction sets, or model kits.
	11:08pm ultradamno: Though that potty thing is far more inexplicable.
	11:09pm ParUbi: Wait, I didn't find my pen in time!
	🌫 11:09pm chresti: Little Tykes frames @ultra
	11:10pm Mr. Pumpy: I just read the thread...Seinfeld is quite a polarizing topic! I don't care...I don't expect everyone to like a thing I like. I will say though, one of the things I like about it (and there are a number of things I don't like) is the use of vocabulary and the playing with the English language. I think it went above where a lot of prime time shows go, in that regard. Anyhow...to each their own. I wasn't into it back and the day, but have found myself letting it rip, one after another, lately while I fall asleep or clean or whatever, because it reminds me of my dead granny's laugh. In doing so I have come to appreciate its conceptual continuity...AND...Wayne Knight!!! Ultra...AMIWRONG?!
	11:10pm Mod Mokka Matti: I'm afraid of that iPad potty apparatus.
	11:11pm coelacanth∅: i just experienced a pseudo-consciousness
	11:13pm ParUbi: Just around the corner: the adult version of the poop 'n' screen
	🌫 11:13pm chresti: I sense an alternate consciousness coming on
	11:15pm Mr. Pumpy: I'm getting into the alternate consciousness as well with these muted Frippertronics...
	🌫 11:15pm Franco Twinkie: Chresti really wants to go and pass out candy or whatever volunteers do, but I won't let her. If she missed work for any legnth time, I don't have any health insurance.
	11:16pm Mr. Pumpy: Yo...that has the Enter Sandman interval. minor third? I'm tone deaf until I pick my guitar up.
	11:16pm Mr. Pumpy: ESPERS!!!! YES! The gods have listened!
	11:17pm Mr. Pumpy: @ Dan...Nice one! This is one of the best live bands I've ever seen.
	11:19pm Daniel Blumin: Yr comment is what made me dig this out, Mr. P!
	11:21pm Mr. Pumpy: I appreciate it, Dan. I hope you are pleased. Is it vinyl?
	11:22pm JakeGould: Can you Maguire learning how to take a dump and updating iPad apps at the same time? Gets kids ready for “the hustle” economy!
	11:22pm ParUbi: very ligeti
	11:22pm JakeGould: Can you IMAGINE!!! McGuire? WTF.
	11:24pm melinda: I thought maybe you had intended to write MacGyver
	11:25pm Mod Mokka Matti: What about MacGruber?
	11:26pm JakeGould: What about Mayor McCheese?
	11:26pm melinda: @Mod Mokka same here. Pong was hot shit at the time.
	11:26pm coelacanth∅: i thought he meant MacMillan...and wife... together
	11:26pm Mr. Pumpy: Mayor McCheese 2020
	11:27pm JakeGould: LOL! “And Wife”
	11:27pm Mr. Pumpy: MacMillan and wife...that's something right there.
	11:28pm N. Ron Hubble: Miss Magruder
	11:29pm JakeGould: WFMU needs a show called “And Wife” Make it about women who have been footnoted by history.
	11:30pm Mr. Pumpy: The Ghost and Mrs. Muir and McMillan...and Sometimes His Wife
	11:31pm melinda: 'Magruder' has always sounded funny to me. I remember watching All The President's Men the first time and giggling whenever they mentioned the name.
	11:31pm JakeGould: Alf and Wife
	11:31pm coelacanth∅: McCloud and MacMillan's wife
	11:31pm Mr. Pumpy: w/ Mayor McCheese and McGruber and Merry MacGuire
	11:31pm JakeGould: Sanford and Son and Wife
	11:31pm JakeGould: Chico and the Man and Wife
	11:32pm coelacanth∅: haha
	11:32pm ultradamno: 99...the wife whose job it was to say "oh, max"
	🌫 11:32pm chresti: Haha
	11:32pm JakeGould: The Rockford Files and Wife
	11:32pm Mr. Pumpy: @Jake...Willllllllly!!!
	11:33pm JakeGould: Manimal and Wife
	11:33pm Mr. Pumpy: Alf rules. I think I had a King Diamond poster or something similar, growing up...and the grim reaper...and ALF. They were all bowing down to ALF.
	11:33pm JakeGould: Welcome Back, Kotter and Wife
	11:33pm ultradamno: ...and to put this thing on her head the day she gets married www.pinterest.com...
	11:33pm Mr. Pumpy: Mannix and Mannwife
	11:34pm Mod Mokka Matti: Murgatroyd has been one name that made me giggle. @JakeGould: MANIMAL! hahaha
	11:34pm JakeGould: Matlock and Wife
	11:34pm JakeGould: Russian Asset and Wife
	11:35pm melinda: @Mod Mokka me too
	11:35pm Mr. Pumpy: @melinda...there is hardcore punk/grindcore band from the DC area named Magrudergrind. That always gives me a chuckle.
	🌫 11:35pm chresti: the Man from U.N.C.L,E, and wife
	11:35pm coelacanth∅: Mannix and Womannix
	11:36pm Mr. Pumpy: 20/20 and wife
	11:36pm ultradamno: I think Melania would prefer to not be called the Russian asset's wife.
	11:36pm JakeGould: “Eight is Enough” is a very funny title and concept in retrospect.
	11:36pm Mr. Pumpy: ultra...and wife?
	11:36pm melinda: @coel haha. and Terminix, their pet cockroach.
	11:37pm coelacanth∅: haha!
	🌫 11:37pm chresti: Haha
	11:37pm Mr. Pumpy: Eight is Enough could be a blue movie about an adult film actor that lets their limits be known. I will not expound on the premise as it can go many paces!
	11:37pm melinda: I loved Eight is Enough.
	🌫 11:38pm chresti: This track is dancy pants!
	11:38pm ultradamno: It was, at the very least, better than Parenthood or This Is Us.
	11:38pm N. Ron Hubble: Otto: “Miss Magruder, I have something for you.”
	11:39pm coelacanth∅: there came a time when all the sitcoms blended together in my mind and i never learned which one was called what. 8 is enough is from that time.
	11:39pm Mod Mokka Matti: We used to watch EIE with some regularity when I was a sprout. Didn't the youngest kid burn down the family house in an episode, with a soldering iron or something? for some reason I swear that was something that happened.
	11:40pm JakeGould: People nowadays barely have one kid. But the show was about a newspaper reporter who had 8 kids, a house big enough for all and when he was widowed, he didn’t downgrade his house. Now “Eight is Enough” would be about 8 roommates in a crappy house barely able to pay rent due to gig economy jobs.
	11:41pm melinda: That was Nicholas but I don't remember him burning down the house. Sounds decidedly non-feelgood.
	🌫 11:41pm chresti: There you go, a new hit sitcom
	11:41pm Mr. Pumpy: Dickin' around with Van Patten images.app.goo.gl...
	11:42pm JakeGould: They should make “Wedding Story” a sitcom. Every episode the divorced couple somehow runs into each other and just over-dramatically screams at each other.
	11:42pm Mr. Pumpy: chresti...exactly
	11:42pm Mod Mokka Matti: @Mr. Pumpy: EIE - falls just short of being a classic cinematic work.
	11:42pm ultradamno: I'm pretty sure that happened. I think Susan died in the fire.
	11:43pm JakeGould: They also go through a revolving cast of nannies and babysitters because nobody can stand their entitled whining and screaming.
	11:43pm ultradamno: She was missed m.media-amazon.com...
	11:43pm Mod Mokka Matti: IIRC, I think Nicholas was making a paperweight or something like that, and left the soldering iron plugged in, unattended.
	11:44pm Ike: At first I misread that as, "Didn't the youngest kid burn down the family house in every other episode, with a soldering iron or something?" I was like, wait, WHAT TV show was this where they keep moving into new houses and they keep getting burned down? That sounds like a good show!
	11:44pm ultradamno: Van Patten looks ready to do some dickin' around with that purple shirt/puka shell necklace combo
	🌫 11:45pm chresti: Haha Ike.
	11:46pm Mr. Pumpy: @Ike...it's a show called, "Burnt Offerings"
	11:46pm Mod Mokka Matti: @Ike: Like "Groundhog Day" for the pyro set.
	🌫 11:46pm Ken From Hyde Park: There should be a WFMU game show where they play parts of three different songs and the contestants guess what DJ played them.
	11:46pm JakeGould: @Ike: In the real world a family that big might move into a trailer or even live under a bridge.
	11:46pm Mr. Pumpy: Oh yeah...Van Patten is in full on Dickin' around mode.
	11:47pm Mr. Pumpy: Left my turn signal on. Loving these sounds.
	11:48pm ultradamno: Maybe it was the Brady Bunch. Things were always getting destroyed on that show and that house looked like it was full fire hazards.
	11:48pm JakeGould: You Won't Have Nicholas To Kick Around Anymore (part 1 of 2) 790237 After feeling left out of family plans and accidentally starting a fire, Nicholas runs away. (part 1 of 2). You Won't Have Nicholas To Kick Around Anymore (part 2 of 2) 790238 Nicholas befriends an old con man who performs his best scam trying to get Nicholas back to the Bradfords. (part 2 of 2).
	11:48pm Mod Mokka Matti: Dick Trickle...now, that is classic. Although, I believe he is now making left turns in the hereafter these days.
	11:49pm coelacanth∅: am i understanding this correctly that there was a sitcom episode in which one of the children died?
	11:50pm Mod Mokka Matti: Wow, Jake - way to sleuth out that hazy recollection!
	11:50pm ultradamno: Nicholas befriending an old con man as a storyline has a lot of sinister potential developments.
	11:50pm melinda: I've been wondering exactly when Dick fell out of favor as a nickname.
	11:50pm JakeGould: Here is Nicholas and the hobo von man on Venice Beach. https://media.gettyimages.com/photos/you-wont-have-nicholas-to-kick-around-anymore-airdate-november-29-lr-picture-id463568574?s=612x612
	11:51pm melinda: @Mod Mokka I found the same wiki page, haha. I had to know the truth.
	11:51pm JakeGould: “Eight is Enough” was a soap opera like dramedy.
	🌫 11:52pm Franco Twinkie: Ulradamno, I once saw the gut who played the dad on The Brady Bunch buying a giant bag of dog food at the El Rancho market in Pasadena.
	11:52pm JakeGould: @Melinda: 1970s after Nixon?
	11:53pm melinda: Hello, my name is Hobo von Mann.
	11:53pm melinda: @Jake that's my guess.
	11:53pm JakeGould: Hobo CON man.
	11:54pm Mr. Pumpy: Hobo CON man...and wife
	11:54pm Mod Mokka Matti: And yet, Rep. Gephardt persists with the moniker.
	11:55pm ultradamno: @Franco I remember being told he visited the gay bar in Muncie that was right under the space Rapeman played twitter.com...
	11:55pm Handy Haversack: Evening, all. Looks like I missed the party.
	🌫 11:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: Coming up next, Inflatable Squirrel Carcass with your host Dick Hazelton.
	11:56pm Mod Mokka Matti: I'm glad I didn't doze off after all. Thanks to Daniel for the tunage, and everyone else for the chat.
	🌫 11:58pm chresti: Your show is a great to hear while driving, Daniel.
	11:58pm Mr. Pumpy: Handy...it's been a ride. Nicholas burned down the Eight is Enough house with his wife via the use of a time machine which Willie Amos invented in order to go forward and see the imminent demise of his career.
	11:58pm JakeGould: Thanks for dealing with us!!!
	11:59pm Jinx: thx!
	11:59pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Daniel! predictably exquisite
	11:59pm Mr. Pumpy: Thanks, Dan! Good chat everyone...and wife
	11:59pm Handy Haversack: @Mr. Pumpy: Math checks out.
	11:59pm melinda: thanks Daniel!
	12:00am ParUbi: Thanks, Daniel!
	🌫 12:00am chresti: Thank you Daniel!
	🌫 12:00am Franco Twinkie: Thank you DB.

Listener comments!
	9:01pm ultradamno: Way to brag, Wire.
	9:02pm fleep: Good evening DB. Bluminauts, assemble!
	9:02pm Stephen: saying hello D....
	🌫 9:03pm chresti: Hello Daniel and live wires!
	9:03pm Phil in Charlotte: Good evening Daniel and fellow travelers!
	9:04pm JakeGould: Sixth!
	9:05pm coelacanth∅: greetings Daniel & Blumindividualswithinahive
	9:05pm TDK60: Hello Daniel DJ and the radio people. I haven't heard the new Wire yet..
	9:08pm Uncle Michael: hi
	9:14pm Uncle Michael: Watching the playlist change without refreshing is hypnotic.
	9:15pm ultradamno: I like when you check in on a playlist of a show that's been in progress for awhile and the sidebar zooms to the bottom.
	9:16pm TDK60: Uncle, I was just wondering, does the playlist change in a new way? Or had I just not noticed before? These and other questions..
	9:16pm Uncle Michael: It's like like falling off a tall building.
	🌫 9:17pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello, Daniel and the Bluministry.
	9:17pm Uncle Michael: TDK, the new way has been in place for about a week. Yes, the main frame with the playlist no longer has to completely refersh to update.
	9:18pm JakeGould: @TDK60: The days of frames and “http-equiv="refresh"” are over. The page just loads and updates via JavaScript nowadays.
	🌫 9:18pm chresti: It's a smooth refresh, it used to jump
	9:18pm Uncle Michael: One effect is that images, if used, no longer have to reload over and over. Some large gifs couldn't completely load before a refresh.
	9:18pm coelacanth∅: TDK you may've had other things on your mind. how ya doing?
	9:20pm JakeGould: Also video streaming — if that still happens — can smoothly work without worrying about the main frame reloading.
	9:20pm Uncle Michael: The impact on a show like Ken's, with scads of gifs, must be huge.
	9:20pm TDK60: Uncle M. and Chresti, yes I thought I noticed a more easy flowing into the future.. ..Oh hi Coel, I've been reeling but somehow have resolved, here, not to even consider touching that dial.
	9:28pm coelacanth∅: TDK you have to i guess. i wont go there again; you know.
	9:28pm Daniel Blumin: Greetings and salutations ultrad, fleep, Stephen, chresti, Phil, JakeG, coela, TDK, Unc M, Ken, and the lurka posse!!! Welcome onboard!
	🌫 9:34pm chresti: Getting some splatters of rain here, in San Gabriel, CA
	9:37pm TDK60: I note the Savvas Metaxas is on a cassette, and we're twenty years into this next, great century.
	9:37pm Uncle Michael: I worked on my pepino limon agua fresca recipe tonight...almost there.
	9:39pm JakeGould: Sha-doobie… Splat-ters
	9:40pm Uncle Michael: I'm dressed in a plastic bag, directing traffic.
	🌫 9:42pm chresti: Pepino limon agua fresca sounds refreshing.
	9:43pm JakeGould: @UncleMichael: Were you in Portland, Oregon in 2016? Is this you? twitter.com...
	9:43pm ultradamno: HE WAS HELPING!!
	9:44pm davefromtoronto: altered states...
	9:45pm Uncle Michael: I was helping.
	9:46pm John from Florham park: Hello fellow listeners
	🌫 9:46pm chresti: Were you handing out pepina limon agua frescas?
	9:46pm JakeGould: Fine, fine, fine… You were helping. Portland Alerts is really my new fave thing. twitter.com...
	9:48pm John from Florham park: @Cheatei howdy Uncle Michael howdy
	🌫 9:48pm brycepunk1: Good evening Sir Blumin and everyone. Loving this David Fenech track.
	🌫 9:50pm chresti: Business as usual @Jake cheatei says howdy @John
	9:51pm John from Florham park: @chresti who is cheatel?
	9:51pm Mister Dobalina: Making this nites show so much more palatable.
	9:51pm TDK60: Chresti, this music almost makes me wanna pull out my pouch of sacred tea leaves...
	9:52pm John from Florham park: @TDK60 how are you doing
	9:52pm Mister Dobalina: up at 6:45am.
	9:53pm Phil in Charlotte: David Fenech track rocks! Diggin’ the whole set.
	🌫 9:53pm chresti: TDK60, if you do, I'd like some.
	9:54pm Uncle Michael: No, chresti. My trash bag had no pockets.
	9:54pm Daniel Blumin: Greetz John and glad you're oscillating happily, brycepunk & Phil! Mr. Dobalina, all hail!
	9:54pm George of Troy: Good evening, Daniel!
	9:55pm John from Florham park: Greetings back Daniel
	9:56pm Daniel Blumin: George!
	9:58pm Uncle Michael: Gonna push back the keyboard now. Night, all. See you in a few weeks, Daniel.
	9:58pm TDK60: Greetings John of F. P. I am okay for now..
	🌫 9:59pm chresti: Night UM.
	9:59pm JakeGould: @UncleMichael: Thanks for helping.
	10:01pm coelacanth∅: everything would be flowing smoothly if only more people were willing to put on their plastic bags and chip in at the intersections.
	10:02pm TDK60: Uncles need rest.
	10:02pm coelacanth∅: medal of freedom for you Uncle Michael.
	10:02pm John from Florham park: @TDK60 good to hear @Uncle Michael good night
	10:03pm John from Florham park: @Coelacanth howdy
	10:03pm ParUbi: Hey everyone, Приве́т Daniel
	🌫 10:04pm chresti: Especially helping uncles.
	10:04pm JakeGould: You really never hear of people randomly directing traffic in NYC.
	10:05pm John from Florham park: @Jakegould they would get most likely get run over
	10:05pm JakeGould: The main thing you get in NYC are people effed up and just literally in the middle of traffic. Even people in wheelchairs. Fully clothed.
	10:06pm coelacanth∅: hey John; Ubi...
	10:08pm JakeGould: Daniel, you are WFMU’s best Russian asset.
	10:08pm John from Florham park: @ajakegould no kidding although does make for some interesting scenes at times
	10:12pm tmoyo: RIP
	10:13pm Marie: Hi All, Happy Friday, I like this song. I'm about hal-way through an 18 oz chocolate babka. Yum.
	10:14pm John from Florham park: @Marie hope it is good
	10:17pm Mr. Pumpy: Hello all! Hello Dan! I'm here...and ready to rock out. Listened in the car a bit...awesome set so far.
	10:17pm Marie: Hey John, it is so good. I love babka. Along with some almond/coconut milk. But I have to put down the fork now. I must, I must...
	10:18pm ParUbi: What is Babka? Is that a kind of cake?
	10:18pm coelacanth∅: MMMBabka - hi Marie; Mr.P ...rest in peace Mr. Weatherall
	10:18pm Mr. Pumpy: I had a documentary on Ambrose Bierce paused from a week ago and my browser restarted and it played against The Sabres...took me about 45 seconds before I realized it wasn't from the track. It went well! Cool doc...www.youtube.com...
	10:19pm JakeGould: @ParUbi: Cheap fortified wine. Like MD 20/20.
	10:20pm Mr. Pumpy: coelacanth∅...what up?
	10:21pm Marie: Hey ParUbi, it is thin layers of moist pastry folded all over itself with filling in between the layers. I'm not sure what kind of pastry/cake it is. I bought it at Trader Joe's
	10:21pm John from Florham park: @Marie otherwise you might get diabetes from it
	10:22pm John from Florham park: @Mr pumpy howdy @Parubi howdy
	10:22pm Mr. Pumpy: Chocolate babka! Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode...
	10:22pm Daniel Blumin: tmoyo, good to see you here! Hi Marie & Mr. P! And hellooo, Babka!
	10:23pm John from Florham park: @Marie sounds yummy
	10:23pm Marie: Hey, it is a yeasty dough. John, I think I would have to eat 200 pounds of it to get diabetes
	10:24pm John from Florham park: @Narie my mistake then
	10:24pm ParUbi: That does sound yummy. Enjoy!
	10:24pm Mr. Pumpy: Hey, John, Para, Marie, Jake, chresti, TDK, ultra...and everyone else.
	10:25pm John from Florham park: I mean Maria now I need to get some sleep
	10:26pm Marie: Hey Mr. Pumpy. Gnite, John!
	10:27pm JakeGould: Here! mantoujoe.blogspot.com...
	10:27pm ParUbi: Good night, John!
	10:28pm ultradamno: Hiya Pumpy
	10:29pm Marie: I'll have to check out that seinfeld episode
	10:29pm ultradamno: Concentric oval cake
	10:30pm JakeGould: I hear “Seinfeld” is a popular show that makes very wry points about everyday life.
	10:31pm Hubig Pie: The package does'nt list any MD 20/20 or Night Train in the ingredients
	10:32pm Marie: @JakeGould--yes, I have heard that it has an obnoxious laughtrack that makes it unwatchable for certain people
	10:33pm Mr. Pumpy: Jake...if you haven't seen it (I may be missing some sarcasm) it is worth checking out with fresh eyes and ears. I rack them up lately as it is funny, but it also reminds me of late grandmother's infectious laugh. She loved the show and would crack up through the whole thing. She's been gone some time now, and I find it cathartically uplifting.
	10:34pm ParUbi: It's all about that bass, I hear
	10:35pm Mr. Pumpy: Yes...it does have a laugh-track, but at least most of it is genuine as it was filmed in front of a live audience for he majority of the scenes. It's one of the few laugh tracks I can do. Maybe All in the Family, Taxi, The Odd Couple...but not many others.
	10:35pm ultradamno: A Babeagleka? twitter.com...
	10:35pm Mr. Pumpy: This track is getting inside me.
	10:37pm Mod Mokka Matti: Hello Daniel, and all the peeps present. I am here, but may fall asleep in the sauna, after a physically exhausting day. I will likely still be listening subconsciously, absorbing everything like a sonic ShamWow. Apologies in advance.
	10:37pm ultradamno: It's hard to find a sit-com from that time, esp. on network TV that didn't (have an obnoxious laugh track). People had to be trained to notice how annoying it was.
	10:38pm ultradamno: I liked Newsradio.
	10:38pm coelacanth∅: yes i thought Seinfeld was filmed in front of an audience. so, they added a laughtrack too?
	10:39pm Marie: I actually couldn't watch it because of that laugh track but I kind of stopped watching TV for the most part in the late 80s. Hey MMM, I love "sonic ShamWow" What does that mean?
	10:39pm Daniel Blumin: MMM, sounds like you've got nothing to apologize fer!
	10:39pm ultradamno: "A combination was used during the taping of SEINFELD" www.quora.com...
	10:41pm JakeGould: Falling asleep in a sauna is something James Spader would do. Not judging!
	🌫 10:42pm chresti: Hi Mr. Pumpy. I stepped away to make tea..
	🌫 10:42pm Franco Twinkie: Wait, you mean Seinfeld had a laugh track? I though all that yucking it up was just the room mates we never saw.
	10:42pm Marie: I met James Spader once. He seemed kind of taken aback by my funky sunglasses, or maybe it was me. I said, "Hi Mr. Spader"--that's it :>)
	10:43pm JakeGould: @coelacanth∅: Being “filmed” in front of a live studio audience and them spontaneously laughing and perhaps that laughter being enhanced are all different things.
	10:43pm Mod Mokka Matti: I have to say that this current cut is hitting the spot.
	10:44pm Marie: @MMM---which spot?
	10:44pm coelacanth∅: thanks ultra d. i believe you! i'm a little surprised i never noticed...or maybe i just don't remember. (+ i didn't watch it all that many times, and it was 20+ years ago)
	10:45pm coelacanth∅: Franco, it was "friends"
	10:46pm ultradamno: It's trending right now Friends are returning. I assume the daily grind or perk or whatever their hangout was called will have a more geriatric feel to it now.
	🌫 10:46pm Franco Twinkie: Oh, okay. Who was the funny guy on that show?
	10:46pm ultradamno: Newman
	10:47pm Mr. Pumpy: Newman
	10:47pm TDK60: ..thanks for the tanzypantz Daniel, and all, I plan to leave that dial right where it is, but have to push the 'off' button for the night, gotta work in the morn.
	10:47pm Mr. Pumpy: @ultra...HA!
	10:47pm JakeGould: On “Seinfeld” it was everyone but Jerry. On “Friends” it was that monkey.
	10:48pm coelacanth∅: Franco, on friends? there was a funny guy?!
	10:48pm ultradamno: That's the power of Wayne Knight right there.
	10:48pm Ike: I never got into Seinfeld. I can't seem to enjoy comedies about awful human beings. (Dramas about awful human beings are fine with me though. Go figure.) The first 5 seasons of Futurama and Red Dwarf and first 8 or 9 seasons of The Simpsons are great. Bob's Burgers is good. But Seinfeld? No thanks, I hate those people.
	10:48pm Mod Mokka Matti: @Marie: I think I was attempting to be witty, and that my brain will still be taking in the broadcast, holding on to every note, blip, squeak, etc. - even if I'm "resting my eyes", as my late father was fond of saying.
	🌫 10:48pm chresti: Goodnight TDK60.
	10:49pm coelacanth∅: the characters in Seinfeld were all obnoxious; but at least they often actually acted like friends to each-other, as opposed to the "friends" on "friends"
	10:49pm JakeGould: Sorry to say I will never joyfully or willfully watch “Seinfeld” again. I just don’t like it. I respect whatever anyone else likes, but I can’t.
	10:49pm ultradamno: The friends monkey has got to be to good for the reunion now that he's worked with David Lynch. www.tvguide.com...
	10:49pm choggie: this is the music music that's playing in the background when you're drowning in the Bermuda Triangle
	🌫 10:49pm Franco Twinkie: Man, I think I'm confusing that show with Gumby.
	10:49pm coelacanth∅: ...(actually that one guy was decent 1/2 the time)
	10:50pm ultradamno: ...too good...grrr.
	10:50pm JakeGould: I will say I would like to see that new “Little Women” and I never want to see “Marriage Story” because neither of the leads are good actors in IMHO.
	10:50pm choggie: just show me on the dolphin where the man from Atlantis touched you
	10:50pm JakeGould: I would watch Eddie Murphy do “Gumby” forever.
	10:50pm coelacanth∅: Franco hahaha! must be
	10:51pm Mod Mokka Matti: Wait, what? "Friends" is coming back? Wow, I sure am out of the mainstream pop-culture loop these days.
	10:51pm ultradamno: I'm exactly the opposite on the previously hidden Little Women/Marriage Story divide.
	10:52pm ultradamno: @MMM yeah, on HBO I think.
	10:52pm retard_riot: Dance music for Craspedotropis gretathunberga
	🌫 10:52pm chresti: I've not seen Friends
	10:52pm JakeGould: @MMM: It’s a “Friends” reunion special. And apparently there is a similar thing happening for “Mad About You?” The advent of streaming means that all of this C, D, E, F and G level TV show and movie ideas are finally getting a chance to be realized… Which is not great.
	10:53pm Jinx: cool set!
	🌫 10:54pm chresti: This Neil Campbell is very nice,
	10:55pm coelacanth∅: excellent
	10:55pm Ike: @chresti, you didn't miss anything. Any one minute of this radio show is infinitely more interesting.
	10:55pm JakeGould: Also it is — personally — weird to me because in the 1970s and 1980s even the worst schools made efforts to limit TV watching in kids. Which was a decent idea in a way. Now it’s all about “binging.” Like dunk 2-3 bottles of cold brew and watch 12 hours of a TV show straight and that’s normal? Nah…
	10:55pm Mr. Pumpy: I thought someone was banging on my door!
	10:56pm JakeGould: Who’s being spanked?
	10:57pm Daniel Blumin: Thanks, Jinx & chresti!
	10:57pm ultradamno: I was at Meijer the other day and saw they had an Amazon Fire "for kids" for $125. Even adjusted for inflation I can't imagine my parents giving that kind of tech at 8 or whatever.
	10:58pm JakeGould: There are toddler chairs with iPad holders… So there you go!
	10:58pm Greg: Dope beats Blumim.
	10:58pm melinda: hi Daniel and friends
	10:58pm Hubig Pie: Enjoying these hypnotic tunes. Gotta go feed my birds now
	11:00pm Marie: Yeah, digging the music, fer sher, Daniel!
	11:01pm JakeGould: Well, going to head off to bed and maybe watch a rerun of some old fashioned TV show like a normal person! THANKS DANIEL!
	11:02pm ultradamno: These are them, padded for protection I guess, though I'm not what protects the kids from Amazon o.aolcdn.com...
	11:02pm ultradamno: not..sure...
	11:03pm ultradamno: And "Sam" evidently owns all three.
	11:04pm ParUbi: Hi melinda!
	11:05pm JakeGould: Utterly not what I meant. I mean this: Kids potty with iPad mount. https://b3h2.scene7.com/is/image/BedBathandBeyond/30676141768105p?$690$&wid=690&hei=690
	11:06pm coelacanth∅: what in hell is that?! it looks like the near-future landfill crap that they try to make me participate in when i go to the doctor's office.
	11:07pm ParUbi: There was that one millisecond which was particularly scrumptious
	11:07pm coelacanth∅: (ultra d)
	11:07pm ultradamno: No, it wasn't what you meant, it was what I meant.
	11:07pm Mod Mokka Matti: I just can't imagine what is like to be a kid now. I don't have any children, am not around them often, and being a 70s/80s kid makes me feel increasingly ancient. It's laughable that some of the more "advanced" toys I had were Electronic Battleship, Big Trak, Atari 2600, and the like. Most everything else at that age was Lego, Tonka trucks, Hot Wheels, construction sets, or model kits.
	11:08pm ultradamno: Though that potty thing is far more inexplicable.
	11:09pm ParUbi: Wait, I didn't find my pen in time!
	🌫 11:09pm chresti: Little Tykes frames @ultra
	11:10pm Mr. Pumpy: I just read the thread...Seinfeld is quite a polarizing topic! I don't care...I don't expect everyone to like a thing I like. I will say though, one of the things I like about it (and there are a number of things I don't like) is the use of vocabulary and the playing with the English language. I think it went above where a lot of prime time shows go, in that regard. Anyhow...to each their own. I wasn't into it back and the day, but have found myself letting it rip, one after another, lately while I fall asleep or clean or whatever, because it reminds me of my dead granny's laugh. In doing so I have come to appreciate its conceptual continuity...AND...Wayne Knight!!! Ultra...AMIWRONG?!
	11:10pm Mod Mokka Matti: I'm afraid of that iPad potty apparatus.
	11:11pm coelacanth∅: i just experienced a pseudo-consciousness
	11:13pm ParUbi: Just around the corner: the adult version of the poop 'n' screen
	🌫 11:13pm chresti: I sense an alternate consciousness coming on
	11:15pm Mr. Pumpy: I'm getting into the alternate consciousness as well with these muted Frippertronics...
	🌫 11:15pm Franco Twinkie: Chresti really wants to go and pass out candy or whatever volunteers do, but I won't let her. If she missed work for any legnth time, I don't have any health insurance.
	11:16pm Mr. Pumpy: Yo...that has the Enter Sandman interval. minor third? I'm tone deaf until I pick my guitar up.
	11:16pm Mr. Pumpy: ESPERS!!!! YES! The gods have listened!
	11:17pm Mr. Pumpy: @ Dan...Nice one! This is one of the best live bands I've ever seen.
	11:19pm Daniel Blumin: Yr comment is what made me dig this out, Mr. P!
	11:21pm Mr. Pumpy: I appreciate it, Dan. I hope you are pleased. Is it vinyl?
	11:22pm JakeGould: Can you Maguire learning how to take a dump and updating iPad apps at the same time? Gets kids ready for “the hustle” economy!
	11:22pm ParUbi: very ligeti
	11:22pm JakeGould: Can you IMAGINE!!! McGuire? WTF.
	11:24pm melinda: I thought maybe you had intended to write MacGyver
	11:25pm Mod Mokka Matti: What about MacGruber?
	11:26pm JakeGould: What about Mayor McCheese?
	11:26pm melinda: @Mod Mokka same here. Pong was hot shit at the time.
	11:26pm coelacanth∅: i thought he meant MacMillan...and wife... together
	11:26pm Mr. Pumpy: Mayor McCheese 2020
	11:27pm JakeGould: LOL! “And Wife”
	11:27pm Mr. Pumpy: MacMillan and wife...that's something right there.
	11:28pm N. Ron Hubble: Miss Magruder
	11:29pm JakeGould: WFMU needs a show called “And Wife” Make it about women who have been footnoted by history.
	11:30pm Mr. Pumpy: The Ghost and Mrs. Muir and McMillan...and Sometimes His Wife
	11:31pm melinda: 'Magruder' has always sounded funny to me. I remember watching All The President's Men the first time and giggling whenever they mentioned the name.
	11:31pm JakeGould: Alf and Wife
	11:31pm coelacanth∅: McCloud and MacMillan's wife
	11:31pm Mr. Pumpy: w/ Mayor McCheese and McGruber and Merry MacGuire
	11:31pm JakeGould: Sanford and Son and Wife
	11:31pm JakeGould: Chico and the Man and Wife
	11:32pm coelacanth∅: haha
	11:32pm ultradamno: 99...the wife whose job it was to say "oh, max"
	🌫 11:32pm chresti: Haha
	11:32pm JakeGould: The Rockford Files and Wife
	11:32pm Mr. Pumpy: @Jake...Willllllllly!!!
	11:33pm JakeGould: Manimal and Wife
	11:33pm Mr. Pumpy: Alf rules. I think I had a King Diamond poster or something similar, growing up...and the grim reaper...and ALF. They were all bowing down to ALF.
	11:33pm JakeGould: Welcome Back, Kotter and Wife
	11:33pm ultradamno: ...and to put this thing on her head the day she gets married www.pinterest.com...
	11:33pm Mr. Pumpy: Mannix and Mannwife
	11:34pm Mod Mokka Matti: Murgatroyd has been one name that made me giggle. @JakeGould: MANIMAL! hahaha
	11:34pm JakeGould: Matlock and Wife
	11:34pm JakeGould: Russian Asset and Wife
	11:35pm melinda: @Mod Mokka me too
	11:35pm Mr. Pumpy: @melinda...there is hardcore punk/grindcore band from the DC area named Magrudergrind. That always gives me a chuckle.
	🌫 11:35pm chresti: the Man from U.N.C.L,E, and wife
	11:35pm coelacanth∅: Mannix and Womannix
	11:36pm Mr. Pumpy: 20/20 and wife
	11:36pm ultradamno: I think Melania would prefer to not be called the Russian asset's wife.
	11:36pm JakeGould: “Eight is Enough” is a very funny title and concept in retrospect.
	11:36pm Mr. Pumpy: ultra...and wife?
	11:36pm melinda: @coel haha. and Terminix, their pet cockroach.
	11:37pm coelacanth∅: haha!
	🌫 11:37pm chresti: Haha
	11:37pm Mr. Pumpy: Eight is Enough could be a blue movie about an adult film actor that lets their limits be known. I will not expound on the premise as it can go many paces!
	11:37pm melinda: I loved Eight is Enough.
	🌫 11:38pm chresti: This track is dancy pants!
	11:38pm ultradamno: It was, at the very least, better than Parenthood or This Is Us.
	11:38pm N. Ron Hubble: Otto: “Miss Magruder, I have something for you.”
	11:39pm coelacanth∅: there came a time when all the sitcoms blended together in my mind and i never learned which one was called what. 8 is enough is from that time.
	11:39pm Mod Mokka Matti: We used to watch EIE with some regularity when I was a sprout. Didn't the youngest kid burn down the family house in an episode, with a soldering iron or something? for some reason I swear that was something that happened.
	11:40pm JakeGould: People nowadays barely have one kid. But the show was about a newspaper reporter who had 8 kids, a house big enough for all and when he was widowed, he didn’t downgrade his house. Now “Eight is Enough” would be about 8 roommates in a crappy house barely able to pay rent due to gig economy jobs.
	11:41pm melinda: That was Nicholas but I don't remember him burning down the house. Sounds decidedly non-feelgood.
	🌫 11:41pm chresti: There you go, a new hit sitcom
	11:41pm Mr. Pumpy: Dickin' around with Van Patten images.app.goo.gl...
	11:42pm JakeGould: They should make “Wedding Story” a sitcom. Every episode the divorced couple somehow runs into each other and just over-dramatically screams at each other.
	11:42pm Mr. Pumpy: chresti...exactly
	11:42pm Mod Mokka Matti: @Mr. Pumpy: EIE - falls just short of being a classic cinematic work.
	11:42pm ultradamno: I'm pretty sure that happened. I think Susan died in the fire.
	11:43pm JakeGould: They also go through a revolving cast of nannies and babysitters because nobody can stand their entitled whining and screaming.
	11:43pm ultradamno: She was missed m.media-amazon.com...
	11:43pm Mod Mokka Matti: IIRC, I think Nicholas was making a paperweight or something like that, and left the soldering iron plugged in, unattended.
	11:44pm Ike: At first I misread that as, "Didn't the youngest kid burn down the family house in every other episode, with a soldering iron or something?" I was like, wait, WHAT TV show was this where they keep moving into new houses and they keep getting burned down? That sounds like a good show!
	11:44pm ultradamno: Van Patten looks ready to do some dickin' around with that purple shirt/puka shell necklace combo
	🌫 11:45pm chresti: Haha Ike.
	11:46pm Mr. Pumpy: @Ike...it's a show called, "Burnt Offerings"
	11:46pm Mod Mokka Matti: @Ike: Like "Groundhog Day" for the pyro set.
	🌫 11:46pm Ken From Hyde Park: There should be a WFMU game show where they play parts of three different songs and the contestants guess what DJ played them.
	11:46pm JakeGould: @Ike: In the real world a family that big might move into a trailer or even live under a bridge.
	11:46pm Mr. Pumpy: Oh yeah...Van Patten is in full on Dickin' around mode.
	11:47pm Mr. Pumpy: Left my turn signal on. Loving these sounds.
	11:48pm ultradamno: Maybe it was the Brady Bunch. Things were always getting destroyed on that show and that house looked like it was full fire hazards.
	11:48pm JakeGould: You Won't Have Nicholas To Kick Around Anymore (part 1 of 2) 790237 After feeling left out of family plans and accidentally starting a fire, Nicholas runs away. (part 1 of 2). You Won't Have Nicholas To Kick Around Anymore (part 2 of 2) 790238 Nicholas befriends an old con man who performs his best scam trying to get Nicholas back to the Bradfords. (part 2 of 2).
	11:48pm Mod Mokka Matti: Dick Trickle...now, that is classic. Although, I believe he is now making left turns in the hereafter these days.
	11:49pm coelacanth∅: am i understanding this correctly that there was a sitcom episode in which one of the children died?
	11:50pm Mod Mokka Matti: Wow, Jake - way to sleuth out that hazy recollection!
	11:50pm ultradamno: Nicholas befriending an old con man as a storyline has a lot of sinister potential developments.
	11:50pm melinda: I've been wondering exactly when Dick fell out of favor as a nickname.
	11:50pm JakeGould: Here is Nicholas and the hobo von man on Venice Beach. https://media.gettyimages.com/photos/you-wont-have-nicholas-to-kick-around-anymore-airdate-november-29-lr-picture-id463568574?s=612x612
	11:51pm melinda: @Mod Mokka I found the same wiki page, haha. I had to know the truth.
	11:51pm JakeGould: “Eight is Enough” was a soap opera like dramedy.
	🌫 11:52pm Franco Twinkie: Ulradamno, I once saw the gut who played the dad on The Brady Bunch buying a giant bag of dog food at the El Rancho market in Pasadena.
	11:52pm JakeGould: @Melinda: 1970s after Nixon?
	11:53pm melinda: Hello, my name is Hobo von Mann.
	11:53pm melinda: @Jake that's my guess.
	11:53pm JakeGould: Hobo CON man.
	11:54pm Mr. Pumpy: Hobo CON man...and wife
	11:54pm Mod Mokka Matti: And yet, Rep. Gephardt persists with the moniker.
	11:55pm ultradamno: @Franco I remember being told he visited the gay bar in Muncie that was right under the space Rapeman played twitter.com...
	11:55pm Handy Haversack: Evening, all. Looks like I missed the party.
	🌫 11:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: Coming up next, Inflatable Squirrel Carcass with your host Dick Hazelton.
	11:56pm Mod Mokka Matti: I'm glad I didn't doze off after all. Thanks to Daniel for the tunage, and everyone else for the chat.
	🌫 11:58pm chresti: Your show is a great to hear while driving, Daniel.
	11:58pm Mr. Pumpy: Handy...it's been a ride. Nicholas burned down the Eight is Enough house with his wife via the use of a time machine which Willie Amos invented in order to go forward and see the imminent demise of his career.
	11:58pm JakeGould: Thanks for dealing with us!!!
	11:59pm Jinx: thx!
	11:59pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Daniel! predictably exquisite
	11:59pm Mr. Pumpy: Thanks, Dan! Good chat everyone...and wife
	11:59pm Handy Haversack: @Mr. Pumpy: Math checks out.
	11:59pm melinda: thanks Daniel!
